Chereads / Invincible Haaland at the start / Chapter 12 - The strongest debut in Champions League history

Chapter 12 - The strongest debut in Champions League history

Boulder was so stunned that he forgot to blow the whistle.

He was right next to Alexander when he hit the goal. He was still thinking about blowing an off-centre whistle and giving Alexander a penalty kick or something if he fell down just now.

Who knew that people would not appreciate it at all.

As a successful defender, he has seen all kinds of forwards in his career. Those who are still thinking about hitting the goal and succeeding when their body is out of balance are all ruthless characters.

"Bah bang bang!"

On the sidelines, Wenger took the lead in applauding, but the professor's face quickly turned serious again, "It's easy to get injured when playing like this."

Colbert nodded with deep sympathy, "Yes, this child still has a lot to learn, especially in terms of self-protection. He is almost blank."

The ball just now was obviously a penalty kick if it just touched the feet of Vermaelen or Mertesacker and then fell to the ground, but this unlucky kid actually rushed over in a daze… …

I lament that he is unwise and lament that he is not cowardly.

Alexander on the court also quickly received congratulations from his teammates.

"Well done, Alex!"

"Hahaha, this is the first time I've seen Thomas (Vermaelen) look so embarrassed."

"Goal with the first touch?"

Giroud panicked a little.

He originally thought that Wenger bought Alexander to be his substitute, so he took the initiative to interact with Alexander just now. But looking at the current situation, might he become Alexander's substitute?

Wilshere and Walcott looked at each other.

Like Alexander, they were also abducted by the professor to the arsenal when they were young. With Alexander being English, they naturally classified Alexander as one of their own, and naturally regarded themselves as the big brother. .

I originally thought that if this little brother was good enough, I might be able to take more care of him, but in the current situation, it seems that I am being too sentimental?

With this kind of talent, there's no telling who will take care of whom in the future…

Walcott said: "He seems to be a very interesting guy?"

"Arteta and Mertesacker don't think so," Wilshere said. "I can't wait to meet him."

After the game started again, Wilshere took the initiative to find Alexander and followed him closely like a personal butler.

Alexander glanced at him strangely, but continued to swim in the frontcourt at his own pace.

The Prince of Arsenal certainly did live up to his reputation. A small threat actually ruined Alexander's ball possession twice in a row.

Everyone thought that the two of them were on a par with each other, so they all watched the excitement and gave the ball to them one after another, almost shouting "Come on, you guys challenge each other".

Alexander also has a bit of a temper.

After losing two goals in a row to small threats, he started to be energetic.

In fact, until now, Alexander didn't know what kind of monster his template was.

He was a goal-scoring maniac who secured the Premier League Golden Boot in advance without playing most of the games in his first year in the Premier League. Although this was due to the support of his teammates, it is undoubtedly true that he is strong enough. Reason.

Although Wilshere took advantage, he actually felt no complacency at all. Instead, he secretly complained.

This boy… is so hard and so slippery.

To put it more formally, he is physically strong and has a tough style of play but his playing style is quite smart.

The third duel came from a pass from Ramsey.

Alexander did not try to get rid of Wilshere by running without the ball this time. Instead, he took two steps back to catch the ball steadily, and then faced him one-on-one.

Breakthroughs are not his strong suit, at least they don't appear in his list of attributes as "extraordinary" or "dream steps", but that doesn't mean he can't make breakthroughs, it's just that when he breaks through You can't just pass a few people like the kings of passing.

In terms of that terrifying explosive power, in fact, as long as the defender fails to block it immediately, the probability of being eaten alive by him in the first step is quite high.

Wilshere obviously has no experience in this area, or in his short career he has never seen a pervert who is obviously as strong as a tank, but can rush as fast as a sports car.

Alexander didn't make any fancy moves. He just swayed on the spot and made a very fake move. After slightly deceiving Wilshere's center of gravity, he immediately poked the ball diagonally and then rushed forward. Go out.

Wilshere adjusted quickly, almost as soon as the football left Alexander's feet, he stepped sideways to block it.

It felt like I had hit a wall.

It cannot be said that it has no effect, it can only be said that it has no effect.

Alexander seemed not to be affected in any way, and flew past him, quickly got the football, and began to charge towards the goal.

Now he finally knew what "Demon Aura" was.

At this moment, his whole body seemed to be emitting monstrous demonic flames, giving onlookers the illusion that this kid could crush all enemies who dared to stand in front of him into mud.

Sania was the first to rush over to defend, but he only barely touched Alexander. Not only was he unable to force him to stop, but he was knocked to the side by a slight bump.

This time, Alexander did not give Mertesacker and Vermaelen a chance to block. After seeing the angle, he immediately raised his foot and hit the goal without hesitation.

A fast and urgent low shot only flew into the lower right corner of the goal.

Szczesny jumped, but didn't even touch a hair on the ball.

Scored twice.

"FUCKING…"

"Did BOSS buy a Drogba?"

"Drogba wasn't so exaggerated when he was 17."

"It's a good thing you didn't mention your age. I want to die when you mention your age."

If the first goal was a bit of a fluke and the opponent didn't pay much attention to it, then the second goal was enough to put all doubts to rest.

The kind that breaks into pieces.

There are many strong players, but it is a bit unreasonable to be so strong and run so fast.

Giroud knew that his starting lineup was gone.

Moreover, a strong body and fast speed are not Alexander's greatest weapons.

As time went by, his flexible movement and terrifying sense of smell in front of the goal were gradually discovered by everyone.

The entire training match lasted only one hour, with half-times lasting thirty minutes each, and Alexander allowed Szczesny to pick up the ball from the goal four times during this hour.

This is because he is not very familiar with his teammates…

Although the training matches cannot be linked to the real games, and there are so-called "geniuses" who can compete with the wolves in the civil war and the foreigners everywhere, but with Alexander's crushing performance in training, no one would think that he has reached the real level. How bad would the performance on the field be?

There is no doubt that Alexander's performance has been highly recognized by everyone.

Anyone who is not blind knows how terrifying this child's future is.

After training together for several days, everyone quickly forgot about Alexander's age and already regarded him as the team's biggest weapon.

Now not only Alexander himself, but also his teammates began to look forward to his debut, but what they couldn't understand was that Alexander was not even included in the squad for the game against Sunderland on February 9.

I originally thought that Wenger was playing it safe and letting Alexander get used to the team for a while, but unexpectedly, Alexander also did not appear on the player list against Blackburn Rovers in the FA Cup.

Although they are still limited to training together, everyone from the players to the coaching staff has been conquered by Alexander.

Not to mention that he is only 17 years old, and his future is still full of unlimited possibilities. The strength he has shown now is already first-class in the Premier League.

This kind of ability can't even be used as a substitute, which is a bit funny.

Even Alexander's most direct rival Giroud felt a little aggrieved for Alexander, thinking that he had offended Wenger in some way, but on weekdays, Wenger almost doted on Alexander, and it didn't look like he was doing it deliberately.

John and Isabella naturally couldn't understand the professor's operations, but they didn't dare to ask.

They thought that Alexander's secret was exposed after all, and he couldn't even play as a substitute in Arsenal. They wanted to use the original agreement with Wenger to ask Wenger to send him to play, but they were afraid that it would harm Alexander.

What makes them even more tossing and turning is that Arsenal has been conducting closed training recently. The media and fans don't know what they are doing. Many people have even forgotten that Alexander is in the team.

The domestic media was lively for a while at first, but after finding out that Alexander couldn't even make the squad for two consecutive games, they quickly treated him coldly.

Alexander himself was quite confident.

The main mission has foreshadowed everything.

"Main mission two: The strongest debut in the history of the Champions League."

"Task description: Score a hat-trick against Bayern Munich."

"Mission difficulty: 5 stars."

"Task reward: Characteristic (unique)*1."

Contrary to what everyone thought, the old man didn't look down on him, but he thought highly of him. He directly made his debut in the Champions League quarter-finals, and his opponent was a European giant like Bayern Munich.

Not to mention the responsibilities on his shoulders, just because of Wenger's trust and kindness, he had to put his best foot forward to face this game.

In fact, everything is not without warning.

These days, Alexander is often put into a small dark room by Wengra, studying Bayern's defensive loopholes and the defensive characteristics of Bayern's defenders in front of game videos. During training, he often uses Bayern as an imaginary enemy to arrange tactics, and in these trainings, Alexander But they all appeared as starting centers.

Soon, everyone understood Wenger's subtext: Guys, let's surprise Bayern.

Everyone actively cooperated with the professor's bad taste, as if deliberately hiding the presence of such a person in their team, and never revealed any information about Alexander to the outside world.

The time soon came to February 20th.

Bayern Munich visits London.

Many people don't know that in addition to the temperature difference lottery, the strongest lineup, etc., Arsenal will also have the historic meme of "Barcelona for three years, Bayern for five years" that will be spread around the world, and this meme almost started today. Started.

The so-called Barcelona in three years and Bayern in five years means that although Arsenal failed to win 4 from 4 every season, they miraculously entered the Champions League every year and broke through the group stage. However, after entering the knockout rounds, they always encountered Barcelona and Bayern. One of two Champions League monsters who, without exception, were sent home by them.

Bayern even likes to claim the title of "Real King of North London" because of this.

But in fact, it was a fluke that Bayern won this round of 16 in history.

Although they beat Nana 3-1 in the away game, Arsenal also beat them 2-0 after returning to home. The two sides tied 3-3 in two rounds. Bayern ultimately relied on away goals to advance thrillingly.

Therefore, what Arsenal lacks in this round of matchup is just one variable.

Wenger was holding back his bad intentions and wanted to rely on Alexander to catch Heynckes off guard, but he didn't expect that he was wrong and he really seized this only opportunity.

Three days before the game, Wenger announced the game roster and starting lineup internally.

Not surprisingly, Alexander's name appeared among the starting eleven.

Although Giroud, Bordowski, Bendtner and others had already speculated, they still couldn't help but feel disappointed when they saw the list.

Alexander naturally informed his parents of the good news immediately.

"Starting?" John was so surprised that his voice changed.

"That's right," Alexander's voice was very calm, "Champions League, Bayern, starting."

"…"

There was silence on the other end of the phone. My parents were probably digesting the news with their eyes wide open.

Various thoughts flashed through John's mind, but he couldn't figure out what Wenger was doing. In the end, he could only give Alexander "Perform well."

Isabella actually talked a lot with Alexander. In addition to telling him to protect herself, helped Alexander think about the celebration after scoring a goal.

"Listen to me, just raise one hand and point your index finger to the sky. That is the celebration of Shearer and Owen. Don't you want to join the national team? They are your role models to learn from."

"I think it's more handsome to kneel down and glide," Alexanderdao said. "Even the statue in front of the Emirates Stadium is kneeling and gliding."

John was silently listening to the discussion between mother and son, as if he was watching two idiots arguing about whether to buy a BMW or a Mercedes-Benz after the next Shuangseqiu lottery draw, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but interrupt, "That set hurts the knees too much."

"Huh? Aren't you a Henry fan? That was Henry's celebration."

"It's true that I am a fan of Henry, but I just want to score goals like Henry, and I don't want you to learn those messy things."

Alexander could only say perfunctorily: "Let's talk about it…"

On the day of the game, both sides announced the starting lineup an hour in advance as required.

Heynckes looked at the unfamiliar name in the opponent's lineup. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out who this guy was, so he could only ask his assistant coach for help.

The assistant coach did his homework well and gave him the answer immediately.

"Alexander, a young player that Arsenal urgently bought before the winter transfer deadline, from the Reading youth academy."

When he said this,Heynckes was immediately impressed, "Oh, the kid who scored ten goals."

"Hey, does Wenger think of us as a youth team?"

"Maybe, who knows…"
