The first half ended quickly, and Grealish, who had scored his first goal for the Reds, walked off the pitch with a smile from his teammates, receiving congratulations and banter from their teammates.

Bowen in the distance looked at the opposite No. 10, and felt a little uncomfortable, after the success of FC United promotion last year, he received an invitation from West Ham United, although he became a member of the Red Rebels as early as 2013, but Bowen's sense of belonging to this team is not very strong, only in the last season of the Championship for four seasons has become the main force of the team, West Ham United is also very strong in the Premier League, and the ability to develop players is also one of the best in the world, Therefore, Bowen did not force or refuse the transfer to West Ham United.

After leaving FC United, FC United rose to prominence in the Premier League, not only in the first season of the Premier League to beat Chelsea, Liverpool and other giants to finish third in the Premier League, but also defeated Atletico Madrid in the Europa League final to become the Europa League champion, it is impossible to say that Bowen does not regret it.

"If I stay, will it be me who assists or scores today?"

Bowen quickly shook his head and shook these useless thoughts out of his brain, he is now West Ham's No.17 and can no longer miss FC United, having personally cut off his bond with the Red Rebels last season, and now Bowen is just a West Ham player.

After the start of the second half, Robertson first felt the change in Bowen, they had been teammates for four years, and they were still in position, and they often practiced together, and if they knew Bowen, I am afraid that the managers such as Lu Wei, Moyes and Pellegrini were not as good as Robertson.

Looking at Bowen's posture with the ball, Robertson knew that this kid was going to be one-on-one with himself, and in the four years from the summer of '13 to the summer of '17, Robertson and Bowen had practiced against each other more than 10,000 times in daily training, so familiar that he knew how you were going to defend as soon as he raised his foot, and he knew where you were going to break through with a shrug.

Bowen is a left-footed player with a very good ability to propulsion with the ball and delicate technique at his feet, especially after two years of studying with Michu, Bowen has a touch of Spanish flavor at his feet, and Pellegrini quickly discovered the bright star after arriving at West Ham.

Bowen swung the ball inside with his left foot, but immediately poked the ball to the other side with his toe, kicked hard at his feet, and broke through Robertson with speed.

He knows very well that although Robertson is fast, the explosive power of the starting speed is not very strong at the beginning, as long as he can throw him away at the beginning, he will definitely be able to successfully break through.

But Bowen's perception is still stuck more than a year ago when they were teammates, Robertson can be named the Premier League and Europa League double best left-back last season is not for nothing, the moment Bowen poked the ball away, Robertson lowered his center of gravity, intercepted the ball with a hook of his left foot, and then unceremoniously bumped Bowen away, took two steps with the ball before passing to Jorginho, who came to receive it.

After passing the ball, Robertson glanced back at his former friend, and there was a trace of pity in his eyes, I don't know if it's a pity that Bowen didn't succeed in this breakthrough, or it's a pity that the team began to reach the top after Bowen left FC United.

Bowen is even more unwilling to see Robertson's eyes, we can be teammates for four years, although you are the best left-back, you can't look at me like that, I scored your goals last season, West Ham also won you a game, don't look at me with that look, I'm no worse than you are now.

Bowen fiercely clenched the two rows of teeth together and followed Robertson back to his own half, but the ball never reached Robertson's side, Jorginho received the ball and directly distributed the ball to the right with a big foot, Sancho, Grealish and Shubomoting began to cooperate in the right half, and finally Grealish completed a good quality long-range shot, Fabianski struggled to save the ball off the line.

Robertson did not entangle with Bowen, leaving only a word and ran to the corner area to prepare for the corner.

'FC United is very strong now, much stronger than when you left.'

Bowen did not speak, the trace of unwillingness in his heart deepened, Robertson's figure turned into a mountain, pressing him a little breathless, even the corner kick was not noticed, his eyes only stared at Robertson who ran out of the corner flag area, watched him quickly run back to his own half, and then stopped West Ham United again.

Pellegrini also quickly discovered that Bowen's state was a little wrong, and took advantage of a sideline opportunity to replace him, Bowen saw that he was replaced by the brand before he reacted to what he had just done, how could he lose his mind in the game, but the substitution sign had been raised and it was impossible to put it down, and Bowen had to walk off the court with an unwilling face.

Robertson watched Bowen's back from a distance, silently sending blessings to his friends.

Although we are an opponent now, you are also a respectable opponent, your talent is high, but FC United is not suitable for you anymore, I hope your future at West Ham will be as bright as it was on the red course, sorry, today's victory belongs to us.

The clash between Bowen and Robertson is like a microcosm of the whole game, although the West Ham United players gradually find the feeling of the game, but FC United is firmly in control of the rhythm of the game, as if when West Ham United's state is raised to 70%, FC United has reached 75%, when West Ham United's game condition reaches 80%, FC United is already 85%, no matter how West Ham United players move, FC United can always suppress them.

In this case, FC United's second goal soon came, and in the 53rd minute, FC United's short pass combined into the box, Shupomotin made the ball in the box, and Saint-Maximine, who ran to the center, poked the ball into the net under the bag of Diop and Fredericks, 2-0.

With a two-goal advantage in hand, FC United played more comfortably, and in the 69th minute, substitute Matuidi fired a low shot from the box to make it 3-0.

It was Grealish who provided the assist for Matuidi, who received his first assist for FC United shortly after scoring his debut for FC United.

In the 88th minute, Giroud, who also came off the bench, came off the bench to end the victory, Sancho crossed from the right, Giroud scored with a header, and two World Cup champions scored, turning FC United's new season debut into a four-goal victory, kicking off the new season with an almost perfect score.
