Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels

In the last three league games, Lu Wei sent substitutes who had little chance to play the rotation, and also let some players complete their farewell performances in FC United, next season in the League Two, in Lu Wei's plan except for three or five players are replaceable, the amateur players who rose all the way with FC United will also end their careers at FC United and go to the next junction of their football careers.

In the final round of the league, Lu Wei sent all the main players to maintain the match for the FA Cup Winners' Cup final 14 days later, and the undesperate Caitlin Town did not cause trouble for FC United, FC United ended their national league journey with a score of 2-0, FC United's two old ministers Wright and Ashton lifted the league championship trophy together, and they also decided to leave the team at the end of the season, and the glory of lifting the league trophy will be forever engraved in their careers.

FC United, who won the league championship, only gave a small celebration and returned to training, and the local media only broadcast the news in the corner of the newspaper, after all, this is only the national league championship, and it is far from the public's view. Moreover, FC United's season is not over, and May 11 will be the FA Cup Winners' Cup final with Dover Atletico, which is the final of FC United's season.

This is FC United's first time playing at Wembley, the new Wembley Stadium opened in 2007 at a cost of £780 million, is a modern, high-tech stadium with 90,000 seats, a floating canopy, the world's largest ceilingable stadium, and the 12-13 Champions League final will be played here in two weeks.

Even if the final opponent is Dover Athletic, who is one level below him, Lu Wei attaches great importance to this game, chartered a hotel near Wembley Stadium, led the team to London by train a day earlier, and let the players lie down and rest early, while Lu Wei stayed alone in the guest room and thought about the arrangement of the next day's game to the computer, repeatedly conducted tactical drills, iterated his ideas, and turned off the lights and went to sleep until he was sure that everything was arranged.

On May 11, 2013, a red bus stopped outside Wembley Stadium in London, although the players and coaches came to London by train, Lu Wei still let the bus driver drive to pick up the team into the stadium, and when the players stepped off the bus, they were shocked by the stadium in front of them, which is the first stadium in Europe that can accommodate 90,000 people, far from being comparable to the Giger Lane stadium. And the only FC United squad to have experienced a major event was Mane at last year's Olympics, but he didn't have a chance to reach Wembley Stadium.

While the whole team was reminiscing about the freshness brought by Wembley Stadium, Lu Wei and Andy. Walsh talked about FC United's stadium plan behind the bus, which will be promoted to League Two next season, and Lu Wei also fulfilled his promise, as early as March Walsh approved the stadium construction plan, waiting for the official announcement after the season.

By the time all the players had warmed up and walked back to the dressing room, Lu Wei was already sitting in front of the tactical board waiting for them, and there was a small box in front of him, and the players with the heart had already guessed that it was the prize that the head coach used to motivate them.

"Ahem, I think you all see this little box, I'll give you one of you a chance, and whoever can guess what is in this box will get the team's next penalty."

"Cash", "bonuses", "checks", "food", "contracts", "newspapers", for a while FC United players all said their thoughts, "It should not be next season's ticket," Wright said casually, and naughty children like McClay also said the answer "vacation ticket".

"It's a pity that none of you guessed correctly, but Jerome's answer is the closest one, but not next season's ticket, but another game in this stadium 14 days later, you should all know what kind of game it is, tell me loud!"

"Champions League final!"

"Yes, the Champions League final, and what kind of final we are going to compare in a moment, the FA Cup Winners' Cup final, these two are very far apart, and we FC United also have a huge gap with clubs like Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, but this is only now, I believe that in the future our team will be on the stage of the Champions League final like them, and I believe that some of you in this group will also stand on the stage of the Champions League final, and today is our first step on this path. The box is 30 tickets for the Champions League final, if you win here today, you can stay here in 14 days to watch the Champions League final live, if you lose, sorry, the Champions League final is not for you, so you know what to do. "

Win the game!"

"Okay, go on the field, lads."

In the final game of the season, Lu Wei sent his strongest team, and the goalkeeper was still Nick. Pope, four defenders Jonatang, Schaefer, Tyrone and Robertson, defender Draper, midfielders Klucass and Higgins, the forward trident is McRess, Mane and Akinfinwa, and on the bench are Ashton, Nicholson, Suarez, Thayer and Moore.

More than 27,000 fans were on hand at Wembley Stadium, and although most of them were neutral fans based in London, FC United's players on the field, except for Mane Mane and Akinfinwa, who had played under the watchful eye of so many fans, played very restrained on both sides.

Dover Athletic in the just-concluded Southern National League ended up only ranked 11th, many years in the amateur league although they admit that their strength is not as good as FC United, but will not surrender easily, this is also the first time they came to Wembley Stadium to play the final, the spirit is not much weaker than FC United, for a while with FC United played back and forth, the attack is smooth and the defense is steady, did not let FC United seize a chance.

Defensive counterattack is the tactic of Dover Athletic in dealing with FC United, all but two forwards in front of the game are involved in the defense, and a dense defensive formation is lined up at the front of the box. Although physically strong, Akinfenwa also struggled with two fists and four hands, and soon fell into the crowd, McReis, who was famous for his speed, could not play in front of the bus, and Mane became FC United's only threat on the pitch, with several breakthroughs that ended up in shots. Lu Wei also arranged for the players to pass more to Mane, and he knew that there were two most direct ways to break through dense defense, breakthrough and long-range shooting.

Finally in the 39th minute, FC United finally knocked on the turtle shell of Dover Atletico, Mane suddenly went down after feigning an inside cut on the left side, the defender wanted to follow the defense when he played a trick to make a hole in the solid back line, and in an instant Mane quickly rushed into the box, rushed to push before the defender blocked, the ball flew into the goal from under the goalkeeper's armpit, 1:0, FC United took the lead in the first half.

Dover Athletic, who conceded a goal first, still did not have the consciousness of a professional team after all, and immediately fell into chaos after losing the goal, some people wanted to continue to defend to the midfield, some people wanted to quickly counterattack, such a good opportunity will certainly not be let go by Lu Wei, as soon as he saw the situation on the field, he immediately commanded the midfield to press forward to launch a wild attack, only 4 minutes after the last goal, Akinfenwa made the whole audience remember why he is the strongest person in the football game, after he received a pass from Lucas at the front of the box, One unreasonably turned around and knocked away the opposing defender, then blocked the other defender with a block with his arm, easily pushed the ball into the bottom right corner after taking two steps.

In the second half, the game completely entered the rhythm of FC United, Dover Atletico wanted to fight back and had to worry about FC United's attack, did not pose a threat to FC United, in the 65th minute, Moore, who had just come off the bench, killed the game with a header, received McReis's cross and ejected a bounce, and the goalkeeper just waved his hand and gave up resistance. In this way, FC United easily defeated Dover Athletic in the FA Cup Winners' Cup final to win the first and only FA Cup Winners' Cup trophy in the team's history.
