I just wanted to play football, but I became a Hollywood god

Chapter 414 An ordinary 180-year-old female fan?Little Queen Taylor: Just wait and see!

At 5:[-] p.m., fans checked in and entered.

The light rain was still falling, and the open-air Westin Stadium was not covered, and the seats were soaked by the rain.

However, such harsh objective conditions still cannot stop the enthusiasm of the fans.

The Seagulls have never been short of die-hard fans. After all, this team has had an extremely bumpy journey along the way. In such a bumpy road with no decent results and even falling to the English League Three without even having its own home court, the die-hard fans of the Seagulls They have never betrayed their own team, and a drizzle of rain will not stop the Seagulls die-hard fans.

The die-hard fans of the Seagulls took their seats in the south stand early, sang the Seagulls song loudly, and hung a huge blue and white Seagulls flag on the fence of the south stand, fluttering in the wind and rain.

And the die-hard Saints fans are naturally even more crazy.

Every Saints fan has the fanaticism of a convert. They regard ups and downs as God's test of their loyalty and willpower. Therefore, the heavier the rain, the wilder their hearts!
The Westin Stadium, which can only accommodate 9000 people, was filled to capacity in an instant!
As the home team, Brighton only gave 2000 tickets to Southampton Saints fans, and there were at least 5000 Saints fans who came despite the rain.

But even if they couldn't buy away tickets, the Saints fans did not leave disappointed. Instead, they stood outside the stadium wearing thin raincoats and cheered for the Southampton team in unison.

After some disguise, the little queen Taylor Swift also came to the scene with her female assistant to watch the game.

Taylor Swift has an outstanding temperament and an eye-catching figure, but fortunately after putting on a raincoat, no one can tell that the little queen of folk songs is present in person.

There are no VIP rooms at Westin Stadium, and Gu Ran only got two tickets for the main stand for Taylor.

The female assistant shivered with cold in the drizzle, "Taylor, do we really have to come to watch the game?"

"Of course!" Taylor said with excitement: "I'm leaving tomorrow. This is the last time I'll watch him play during this holiday - oh, strictly speaking, I can watch it again at midnight tonight. , but more strictly speaking, that time in the middle of the night I basically kept my eyes closed and howled, and of course I didn’t howl the whole time. Sometimes my mouth was full and I could only moan.”

Female assistant: ...I shouldn’t ask.

The female assistant quickly changed the subject, "Taylor, aren't you cold?"

Taylor said matter-of-factly: "It's not cold! It only gets hotter and hotter when I watch him play. I'm even worried that I won't be able to control myself and take off my raincoat! What, are you cold? When you watch him play, aren't you? Does it feel like burning your body?"

The female assistant quickly said: "No, no! Absolutely not!"

Taylor chuckled, "...that's not normal."

The female assistant's lips trembled slightly, "Taylor, you'd better restrain yourself. There are many media reporters here. Your agent and agency don't want you to be photographed by the media during your vacation."

Taylor shrugged indifferently, "I know, don't worry, I'll figure it out."

When Taylor said this, the female assistant became even more worried.

Only God knows what this little Sagittarius diva will look like when she goes crazy.

The female assistant only hoped that the game in the rain could be played smoothly. If Gu Ran did not perform well, that would be the best.

Also sitting in the main stand were reporters from major media, as well as Chelsea's Emenalo, Liverpool's Edwards, and Manchester City's Platt.

As long as it's Gu Ran's game, these three old ones will be there every time.

This is both their job and their enjoyment.

——The scene where you come to see Gu Ran play football with your salary, and then you are so flattered in your mind that you sign Gu Ran home. Isn’t that just enjoyment?

Of course, I have to mention that Arsenal’s coach Wenger is paying attention to Gu Ran in a silent way...

For today's game, the pre-match handicap given by William Hill is: Brighton wins 3.85, draws 4.30, and loses 1.79.

Judging from the odds of this handicap, bookmakers are still more optimistic about Southampton, the last champion of the British Championship. Southampton is not only the championship team of the British Championship, the most important thing is that it has Gu But this super demon star.

As long as the bookmakers confirm that Gu Ran will start, then Southampton's winning odds will never be rashly increased.

Due to weather and venue reasons, the two sides did not hold a pre-match press conference.

At 7 p.m., with light rain still falling, the referee team came in to inspect the playing field.

The venue is full of water. In fact, this situation is no longer in line with the requirements of the competition, but...it’s already here. There are too many procedures to reschedule temporarily, and the referees don’t want to go through it.

After the venue inspection was completed, the away team Southampton was the first to enter the stadium for pre-match warm-up training.

In today's game, Southampton played in their traditional red and white jerseys.

When Gu Ran appeared on the artificial turf of the Westin Stadium in the rain, the Saints fans in the north stand suddenly went crazy!
Although there were only 2000 Saints fans entering the stadium, the Saints fans outside the stadium echoed together, and the shouts resounded throughout the Westin Stadium!

The Westin Stadium seems to have become Southampton's home court!

Gu Ran applauded the Saints loyalists and thanked them, then concentrated on the warm-up training despite the drizzle.

The soaked jersey stuck to Gu Ran's body, outlining Gu Ran's strong muscles.

"Ahhhh! Gu! So handsome!" Taylor couldn't help but scream and cheer.

The female assistant quickly grabbed Taylor and said, "Calm down! The game hasn't started yet!"

The media reporters not far away cast surprised glances at Taylor.

"Who is this girl?"

"It sounds so nice!" "Looking at her height, she looks like a little ballad queen!"

"It's a pity that we can't see her face from this angle."

"Can't you?"

"Probably not. Taylor Swift is so rich. Both legs cost 4000 million US dollars. How could she come to such a bad place? And if it was Taylor, how could she dare to scream in such a high profile? She is not afraid of being Does anyone know about the scandal?"

"Well, that's true."

"Maybe she's just an ordinary 180-year-old female fan."

"But... having said that, do we care whether she is really Taylor? Where there is Gu Ran, there must be big news. If we create a suspected scandal between Gu Ran and Taylor, there will be big news!"

"Haha! The heroes think alike!"

The news media reporters all became excited.

After the female assistant heard this, she immediately frowned and went to argue with these unscrupulous reporters, but Taylor caught her back.

"Taylor! They're going to make up a scandal about you!"

Taylor smiled and comforted: "It doesn't matter, I won't let them succeed in fabricating it... Just wait and see!"

At this time, all the Seagulls Brighton players also appeared on the stage and began adaptive warm-up.

The die-hard Seagulls also roared crazily, and their cheers drowned out the boos of the Saints fans.

The light rain gradually increased, and the adaptive warm-up of both sides ended in less than half an hour. The players of both sides left the field and returned to their respective buses for final game preparations.

At 7:35, players from both sides lined up at the entrance and officially took the stage.

Brighton's centre-back captain Gordon Gill and Southampton's captain Davies came together to guess coins in front of the referee.

Davis guessed wrongly and got the priority to kick off, while Gordon Gill got the priority for the Seagulls to pick the edge.

Gordon Gill then chose the south half, which was closer to his own fans.

The captains of both sides shook hands and exchanged team flags in accordance with the procedure. Players from both sides took photos in their respective halves and formed their formations.

In today's game, Southampton's away team adopted a 442-[-]-[-] formation as the starting point. The offensive strategy was to pass the ball directly behind the ball, and the defensive strategy was to press high and use physical strength.

This is also the most common opening tactic used by Southampton in recent times.

Southampton's players are already very comfortable with this.

Southampton's two starting forwards today are No. 9 Barnard and 18-year-old young player Tony Garrod.

Barnard has advantages in speed and physical confrontation, while Garrod is 189cm tall and can be a tactical fulcrum in the midfield and frontcourt.

The left midfielder is Holmes, a small and quick player.

Holmes has not been a starter for a long time. In today's game, Holmes finally got his chance, while Chamberlain sat on the bench.

The two midfielders are Lallana and Hammond - Lallana has returned from injury and is in urgent need of games to adjust his competitive status so that he can better cope with future games with Everton. Hammond has rested the first few games. , also returned to the starting lineup today.

Lambert also got a rest in this game to prepare for this month's fourth round knockout round of the League Cup.

Today, Lallana's position is forward and he plays the role of attacking midfielder. Hammond's position is deeper and he plays the role of defensive midfielder.

The right midfielder is Frenchman Schneiderlin.

Gu Ran is still in charge of the left back - Gu Ran is also the core of Southampton's entire offensive and defensive transition, and is the first person that all rival teams target.

Coach Adkins puts Gu Ran at left back every time the game starts, just to prevent Gu Ran from being deliberately targeted.

After all, even if the opponent wanted to target Gu Ran, they couldn't just let their defenders and midfielders rush to the left side of the frontcourt right from the start, right?

Fonte will be the right back in today's game.

The two central defenders are Aaron Martin and the equally young No. 19 player Danny Siborn.

The goalkeeper is captain Davis.

It can be said that in this game, Coach Adkins boldly used the young defense line. Coach Adkins also wanted to use this game to achieve the purpose of training the defense line.

After all, the intensity of the subsequent games will become more and more intense. If there are only 1.5 defensive lineups, it will definitely not go far.

Central defender Danny Siboney, who made his debut, seemed a little nervous and kept wiping the rain off his face.

Aaron Martin patted Danny Sibornay on the shoulder kindly, "Relax, take care of yourself, playing football is like a vacation."

Siborne nodded convincingly.
