Chapter 22 Opening of the FA Youth Cup

The English football under-18 youth team competition, in other words, is the English Football Youth FA Cup.Every English football fan knows that the FA Cup is the oldest competition in English football.It is also a game where teams of more than ten levels in England, whether professional or amateur, can participate.

There are even many traditional England fans who have always insisted that the FA Cup is even more influential than the Premier League, even the European Football Champions League (Champions League).

Well, regardless of the FA Cup for the adult team.Because Victor represented the youth team of Fulham Club and participated in the England Youth FA Cup.

In the 2006-2007 season, this was the first time Victor represented Fulham in the FA Youth Cup.It was also the first time Victor participated in the FA Youth Cup.

But Lao Lei, who represented the Fulham youth team to participate in the draw, was really unlucky. So many low-level youth teams in English football did not get drawn, even the youth teams of League Two or League One teams did not draw. arrive.It just happened to draw the youth team of Southampton Club.

Simply speaking, the Southampton club may not be afraid of the Fulham club.After all, the Fulham club's first team is a team in the Premier League that is stable at around ten every year, and even enters the European theater in the middle of the season.And the Southampton club, the English Football Championship, seems to have a good name for the league level, the Champions League.But it is the second level of the English Football League.

However, for the Southampton club, because of the owner of the team, it is impossible to spend a lot of money to buy well-known stars in the world.So Southampton went out of their own way.That is to develop youth training and vigorously train young players.After these young players have matured, they can be sold at high prices to those clubs waving checkbooks in the transfer market.

Therefore, Southampton Purdue Club is a club that attaches great importance to the construction of youth teams.This is undoubtedly the worst news for Victor and his teammates, the boys of the Fulham club's youth team.

Soon, on August 2006, 8, Victor and his Fulham youth team teammates ushered in a game against the Southampton youth team at their home court.

The game will not be played at Fulham's home ground, Craven's Farm.After all, this is only the first round of the FA Youth Cup.If it is the last final, I believe that the Fulham club will of course let the youth team players go to Craven's "farm" to play.If not, they will still sell tickets.

Therefore, this game was held at the stadium at the Fulham training base.However, even the games held in the training base still attracted many Fulham fans to watch.

Some are the parents of Fulham youth players, and some are "20-year-old fans" of the Fulham club.For these "20-year-old fans", the favorite first is that the Fulham club they support can win the Premier League and the FA Cup.Of course this is impossible.

Secondly, I hope to see players who have been trained in their own club's youth training camp enter their club's first team, and then lead the first team to defeat their opponents, win the Premier League and the FA Cup, and then refuse such as Manchester United, Liverpool The temptation of such a big-name club's high salary insists on staying at Craven's "farm".Finally, he was selected for the national team and led the England team to win the World Cup and European Cup.

Of course, the second dream of these "20-year-old fans" of the Fulham club, those in front of them, players from the youth team trained by the Fulham club themselves entered the club's first team.This is achievable.After all, the children I cultivated have high loyalty and are willing to play as substitutes. After retiring, they can return to the youth training camp as coaches.

But the latter ones, just think about it.It's best not to even say it.

Okay, that's a bit of a stretch.Back to Victor and his Fulham youth team-mates as they prepare for a Southampton youth challenge on their home turf.

If we talk about the youth team of Fulham Club, it is now playing around Victor.Well, the Southampton youth team never revolves around one player.

The reason is very simple. As the famous England's "rich youth training base," the Southampton club does not only sell first-team players.The players in the youth team are also "not for sale." The so-called "not for sale" actually means that they must be sold to a certain extent to make a bid.

Think about Walcott, who is currently in Arsenal’s youth team and is being cultivated by Arsenal’s head coach Arthur Wenger. .He is another excellent "product" produced by the Southampton youth team. In January 2006, he was bought by Arsenal for 1 million pounds.This made Victor envious and jealous for a while.

However, after leaving one Walcott, there are still thousands of "Walcotts" in the Southampton youth team. , Gareth Bale from Wales.He is said to have been hired by Manchester United's manager, Sir Alex Ferguson.And the coach of Chelsea, the madman Mourinho, has taken a fancy to it.Of course, Arsenal's head coach, Arthur Wenger, who has tasted the sweetness from Walcott, is also indispensable.

In the frontcourt, Nashdale, who can play left and right, is the same as Walcott.They are all good players who are soaring on the wing.Often let the defensive players who are facing him watch his back as he rides away.

In addition, there is Adam Lallana who can play well in all positions in the frontcourt. He can accurately pass the football to the striker's feet or head when he plays on the wing. It can make the opponent's goalkeeper nervous for a whole game.And if he is allowed to play as a central midfielder, his strong physique allows him to steal in the backcourt in the last minute, and then take the ball to the frontcourt by himself, rewriting the final score with a long shot.

But even such a strong Southampton youth team, the top and bottom players of the Fulham youth team, and the youth training director Lao Lei didn't have any intention of backing down.Even more so for Victor.

Just imagine how interesting it would be to step on such a strong opponent to advance to the next round.Thinking about it makes people feel extremely excited and excited.

Therefore, after the start of the game.The players of the Fulham youth team, who occupied this home court advantage, immediately launched offensives again and again.

Of course, after the Fulham youth team scored in the Southampton youth team's half, they must have given the football to Victor.Not just because it was the coach's request, and not just because Victor is the core of the team's offense.The main reason is that Victor is under the training of the simulated Klaus Janssen in the system.

For the reading analysis in the game, it has reached the point of view of a professional player.Besides, Victor's physical fitness cannot be said to be poor, so Victor runs a lot without the ball in the frontcourt.But instead of running around, look at the position of your own team's players who control the football.

Then either retreat or advance, anyway, you can find an empty position for your teammates to pass the football to you.Then step on the football with the sole of your foot and pull it back, or take it along.Anyway, the first move must be to get rid of the Southampton youth team players who came to mark.

Then decide on the next move.The choice is to carry the ball yourself, or knock it back and let the Southampton youth players press it out.Or distribute the ball to the wing and try a three-dimensional attack.

However, the overall strength of the Fulham team is indeed not as good as that of the Southampton Pudu youth team.Therefore, even if Victor is now going back and forth to control the football with the soles of his feet, and he also tries various fake moves on the spot, pretending to want to break through in front of him, Adam Lara, who played as a central midfielder in this game accept.

However, Victor is not Adam Lallana who wants to break through in front of him and put out a defensive posture of "like an enemy".In fact, I am observing the running positions of my teammates in the front field, to see if there is a good opportunity to send the football to the feet of my teammates, and then let the teammates shoot.

It's a pity that none of my teammates can run out of a very good position.Sometimes Victor sees that if his teammates run a few more steps, or don't go straight when running, even a slight change of direction will do.This presents a fantastic opportunity.

It's a pity that my players still only take a few steps less, or just rush straight.So Victor has no way to pass a ball that can threaten the opposite Southampton youth team goal and goalkeeper.

Therefore, Victor found that his teammates were helpless, and even came to help his players, and then passed the ball to his teammates, and the teammates would still pass the football back to him.Victor decided to bring his own.At least one can break through, and it can also form a situation where more players fight less in an instant.

So, I saw Adam Lallana who was a little nervous in front of me.Victor smiled at the corner of his mouth, and then swiped his right foot in front of the football he controlled. Then his two shoulders shook, and his body shook with the shoulders.Make a posture ready to break through.But Adam Lallana, who was defending opposite Victor, couldn't tell from which direction the attack came from.

Then, Victor retracted his shaking shoulders and body, and then pulled the ball back with his right foot.Viktor then makes a motion that seems to want to push the football to his right with the side of his right foot that is pulling the ball back.

"It's an idea and movement to break through from my left." Opposite Victor, Adam Lallana, who is a central midfielder, is one of the 442 midfielders in the parallel 4 lineup of the Southampton youth team in this game. reacted.He took a diagonal step towards Victor with his right foot, trying to block Victor's breakthrough.

But Victor doesn't really want to break from his right, which is the left of defender Adam Lallana.Victor's real intention is to attract Adam Lallana, who is opposite him, to step out of his right foot obliquely.And now seeing that Adam Lallana on the opposite side really stepped out of his right foot obliquely according to his own ideas, and stepped on the court.

Victor's right foot after pulling the ball, the toe pointed towards the lower right side of the football.Immediately, like an obedient white elf, the football was picked up towards the left side where Victor's right toe pointed.Then Victor kicked the ground with his left foot, and pushed the picked football forward with the instep of his right foot.Successfully passed Adam Lallana who was marking himself.

　The third update, can you let Jade see that the collection in the background has grown more.I beg you readers to be great.
