Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels
Chapter 288
"Five to zero! A perfect victory! Defeating Watford at home, FC United completed the revenge of the FA Cup loss to the other side, and swept away the haze of two consecutive games without scoring, and they were once again caught up by Liverpool behind the standings, Liverpool won 2:1 in yesterday's game against Arsenal, temporarily climbed to the top of the standings, and today FC United also withstood the pressure, and continued to maintain the advantage of goal difference after a hearty victory to sit in the first place in the standings. "
Another victory! 4:2! After conceding two goals first, FC United's James Maddison scored his first career hat-trick! He himself set up Olivier Giroud to score the game-winning goal, and FC United scored four goals in a row to turn the game around, and even Wood's brace couldn't save the defeat!
"After winning this game, the Premier League has been played for 26 rounds, FC United and Liverpool are still on the same score, both teams are terrible 21 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss, the championship competition is still fierce, and FC United Man and Liverpool are also creating good results in Europe, Liverpool has been eliminated into the Europa League round of 16, three days later to see if FC United can beat Lyon again and continue to make history in the Champions League?"
Many media outlets are now optimistic about FC United's current form, and no one would think that this young team would fall at the feet of Lyon, but when the game time has reached 60 minutes, the huge scoreboard shows that FC United have fallen behind 0-2 at home.
The aggregate score was 2:3 by Lyon, and the number of away goals was tied between the two teams, and even if FC United scored two goals to exceed the aggregate score, as long as Lyon only needed to score one more goal to score FC United into the abyss.
Genesio's tactics perfectly captured the holes in the FC United backline, due to Pepe's suspension, Tarkovsky had some minor injuries, Webster and Maguire were more than powerful and agile, and in the first half were successfully stolen in the penalty area by Lyon's small and quick play.
After taking the lead in the aggregate score, Lyon simply played a defensive counterattack, leaving only Depay alone in the front, in this case, Lu Wei did not dare to let the whole team attack, Depay is in very good shape today, if the defense makes another mistake, FC United Manchester this season's Champions League road may come to an end.
Lu Wei saw that the situation on the court could not be changed for a long time, gritted his teeth and decided to take the initiative to change, and called Webster to whisper a few words in his ear, Webster was a little surprised at first, but soon calmed down, nodded again and again beside Lu Wei, and immediately returned to the field after getting the instructions, and ran to his teammates to convey the coach's will.
Genesio was still thinking about what else Lu Wei could come up with in this situation, and the next second his jaw fell to the ground, only to see Webster not return to the position of central defender, but ran directly into Lyon's penalty area, and suddenly there was an extra 1.9-meter big man in Lyon's penalty area.
Without waiting for Lyon's defenders to react, Robertson threw a throw-in and followed Grealish's return pass and crossed directly, the ball found the top of Webster's head, and Webster flicked it hard to push the ball in the air towards the goal.
With a burst of exclamations from the audience, Webster held his head in frustration, the top of the ball was very strong, but unfortunately it was a little higher, and the ball flew out on the upper edge of the crossbar.
Webster did not continue to retreat after walking out of the Lyon team's penalty area, but stood directly in the forward position, and at this time, even the stupid person understood that FC United Man was going to play high-altitude bombing.
"Young people are young people, the Champions League is not the Europa League, a stupid trick can make you fall into the abyss, although the tall defender has a good heading ability, but the defender is a defender after all, and the sense of running is far worse, do you think you only need to be tall to play high-altitude bombing?"
Genesio looked dismissive and did not make any adjustments to the changes at FC United, believing that the experience of the players on the pitch would allow them to make the best judgment.
If Lu Wei worked so hard nine years ago, he would definitely fail, but now he can lead the team to win the Europa League with his real materials, doesn't he understand such a simple reason? It's not the first time FC United have done this at centre-back, as Rahmani has been on the front line on a number of occasions back in League Two, assisting or scoring key goals himself.
Webster's technical characteristics are similar to Rahmane's, and he even has better header ability in the English football academy, and Webster played as a striker at the beginning of the Portsmouth academy, only later he liked the feeling of destroying the attacking opportunities of the opposing striker before switching to a defender.
It didn't take long for Genesio to realise his mistake as Robertson went straight down after a one-two with Grealish on the left and crossed the ball into the box without raising his head, giving Robertson the confidence that his team-mates would be where they should be.
Next to Webster was Marcelo, who was also more than 1.9 meters tall, and the Brazilian didn't take Webster seriously at all, seeing that the ball was already flying from the air, he immediately opened his arms to stop Webster behind him.
"Sample, then you can't do it, I'm afraid that your big body will lose your physical strength after a few more rounds, and the defender should honestly stay in the defender to guard the goal, don't learn from those strikers to waste opportunities in the penalty area."
Just when Marcelo was about to jump, he only felt a strong force behind him, and his legs, which had been ready to jump, were instantly pressed down again, and this feeling of hitting up and down made Marcelo's chest sink, and he stretched out his right elbow to push behind him without having time to think about it.
Webster is 1.9 meters tall and weighs only 75kg, which is a slight thinness among England defenders, which is also related to his background as a striker, but there are also advantages to light weight and height, that is, a high ceiling of air height.
In the physical fitness test of the FC United team, Webster's touch score is second only to that of young goalkeeper Ramsdale, and the success rate of high-altitude ball duels is not much lower than that of Maguire.
With excellent bounce ability, Webster's jump timing was half a second earlier than Marcelo's prediction, so when Marcelo was about to block, Webster had already jumped into the air, and his left hand also borrowed force on Marcelo's shoulder to keep himself in the air longer, and when the high-speed flying football was about to hit his head, Webster kept his body and adjusted the angle of his head to meet Robertson's cross.
The ball bounced off his skull and sprinted into the top left corner of the goal, and Lopes stretched his arm to the extreme, but he couldn't touch any of the skin, and the ball flew directly into the net and landed in the goal.
After Webster landed, he watched the football in the net for two seconds before he realized that he had scored, grinning and ready to rush to the sidelines, the other FC United players were faster than Webster, and before he could run out of the penalty area, Giroud grabbed him and fell to the ground.
"You guys jump so high! Or you'll have to switch to playing as a striker in the future. Receiving
the congratulations from his teammates, Webster was lying on the grass and something was ignited in his heart, it felt so good to be able to score for the team.
