Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 34 FA Cup Final

At the beginning of the first half, Arsenal kicked off first, Walcott passed the ball back to the backcourt, and the FA Cup final of the 2014-2015 season began.

Among the eleven players played by Arsenal, only Walcott was a local player in England, and the rest were all coalition forces from various countries.

As expected of a top team in the Premier League, the full main lineup is more than a star and a half stronger than Everton, Villa and the like, and they have completely suppressed Tranmere from the very beginning.

Zhang Mai had already retreated to the front of his own big penalty area. While marking Sanchez, he had to wipe his players' butts. He was so busy that he had no chance to attack.

In the 9th minute, Cazorla passed a corner kick from the left, and Koscielny shook his head and missed the goal.

In the 15th minute, Sanchez picked a pass from the left side of the penalty area, and Koscielny's header was bravely saved by goalkeeper Williams.

In the 20th minute, Ozil made a direct pass from the left, and Ramsey's shot from the penalty area was slightly higher than the crossbar.

In the 25th minute, Ozil made a pass from the left, and Walcott's close-range attack was blocked by Laird.

In the first three and 10 minutes, Tranmere only passed halftime once, and spent the rest of the time defending hard in their own half, and the gate also suffered several threats from Arsenal.

"This is what the Premier League should look like against League Two!"

Arsenal coach Wenger nodded frequently on the sidelines.

"Not bad! Zhang Mai's defensive skills and running ability are very strong."

Li Tong in the audience was applauding Zhang Mai's defense, leaving Wen Xiaopang and Jian Jian speechless, big brother!Zhang Mai is a striker.

Thinking of Li Tong's background, the two of them could understand again. Li Tong is a defensive midfielder who can't run to death, or the kind who can never shoot.

"Long defense is bound to lose" is especially appropriate in a game with disparity in strength. Towards the end of the first half, Tranmere's gate was finally broken by Arsenal.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Walcott scored from the left, and Monreal made a high-speed pass. Sanchez rubbed the ball under Zhang Mai's defense. Walcott got rid of Holmes and followed up. A left-footed volley hit Arsenal's 1-0 lead to Tranmere.

Arsenal lived up to expectations and scored first, and the entire Wembley Stadium was completely "ignited". At that moment, the British's obsession and madness for football were released to their heart's content. There were 7 red and white Arsenal fans cheering The mountains and seas were so overwhelming that Li Tong and others who were in it felt the hairs all over their bodies stand on end.

Zhang Mai stood near the arc of the middle circle, looking at the Arsenal players celebrating the goal and the Gunners fans cheering, feeling very unwilling.

After working hard for more than 40 minutes and conceding the ball, the most important thing is that the Tranmere players will lose their fighting spirit. No, I have to think of a way!

The ball was about to be re-served, and Zhang Mai saw that Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny was still chatting with the defender outside the small penalty area, so he asked Stockton to wait and pass back directly to himself.

As soon as the referee blew the whistle, Stockton sent the ball to Zhang Mai, so Zhang Mai shouted "shooting boot" without hesitation, swung his right foot and kicked the ball.

Szczesny found Zhang Mai's shot and started running back frantically, but the ball quickly crossed the entire half, drew a wonderful arc in the air, flew over Szczesny's head and went straight to the goal.

"Gooooooooooooooooooooool! Tranmere's Huaguo player Zhang Mai made a lob shot and immediately helped the team equalize the score. Let's take a look at this shot. There is still a distance from the arc of the middle circle. The latest data, 66 yards, 55 yards further than Beckham's [-]-yard lob and I can say with certainty that this is the greatest goal in the FA Cup final of the new millennium!!"

The on-site commentator's voice sounded like a machine gun, quickly awakening the shocked and silent audience.

The entire Wembley Stadium began to boil again, and the loudest voices were the shouts of "Zhang Mai! Zhang Mai!" and "Prince of the East!" from the Tranmere fans.

The camera just turned to the second-floor stands. Among the cheering crowd, you can see Beckham sitting on the second-floor stands with Prince William. Looking at the camera, he gave a thumbs up.

"MD, it's worth it, broke Beckham's lob record at Wembley Stadium, Zhang Mai is worth it! Huaguo football is worth it!"

Li Tong, who is familiar with the Premier League, knows the significance of Zhang Mai's shot.

"Routine operations, Zhang Mai is not good at these."

Wen Xiaopang on the side was very calm, and Jian Ming also deeply agreed.

oh?The generation of big players in the national football team has become more refined, is there anything better at it?
"Look, there are more exciting things to come..."

Professor Wenger lost his composure, his face was so dark that water dripped out, and his eyes lit up when he saw Zhang Mai galloping on the field.

Szczesny's death only strengthened the professor's determination to replace him with Peter Cech. Anyway, the weekly salary is as high as 10 pounds;
But Zhang Mai who appeared out of thin air is different. Recruiting and cultivating young demons has always been the most praised place of the professor. How can he fool Zhang Mai?
The professor fell into deep thought...

As usual, Zhang Mai ran to the Tranmere fans stand with his teammates, and lined up in a "backward 30°C" posture, which caused another shock from the audience. call.

At the end of the celebration, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half before kick-off.

Players from both sides went back to the locker room. Among the Arsenal players, except for Szczesny, who was very upset, the others didn't care too much. The League Two team can easily press down no matter how high they jump.

Tranmere's side is different. When they were scored by Arsenal, their hearts were ashamed, and they felt powerless all over their bodies. Zhang Mai's shocking lob shot brought their energy back.

Edwards couldn't be more satisfied with the team's performance in the first half. He can accept a goal behind, not to mention giving Zhang Mai a shot in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, during the intermission, Edwards poured sweet chicken soup into the players, and Zhang Mai was arranging the strategy for the second half.

"In the first half, everyone played pretty well and almost withstood the opponent's offensive, but the opponent was also familiar with our lineup, so we had to make a small change in staffing."

Zhang Mai discussed with the whole team.

"Coomass and Laird swap, Laird will mark No. 16 Ramsey, Stockton pay attention to switch positions with me at any time, if I rush forward, one of you and Powell will watch Staying with Ozil and Sanchez, these two big names don’t like to defend very much, so it’s easy to defend at this time!”

You gradually get to know me, and I will gradually understand you.

"In the second half, Donassien and Belle Bajdo stepped up dribbling, but remember, it must be in the opponent's half, and I get the ball in the opponent's backcourt. Rib insertion."

This is a change in frontcourt strategy.

"The most important point is: There may be a gap in strength, but confidence and focus can be smoothed out with our fighting spirit and spirit. No matter how many goals the opponent scores, everyone should still maintain confidence. Remember! There is still me ahead. , I will be able to break through the gate of Arsenal again."

Zhang Mai's sonorous voice was still echoing in the locker room, and Chairman Parios walked in with two suitcases.

"50 half-time bonus, please keep it!"

Parios threw a small suitcase on the table.

"There is still 100 million here, the FA Cup championship bonus, waiting for everyone to come!"

Parios raised the big suitcase in his hand again.

This one is worth a thousand words...
