In the scout area, Lawler of Manchester United said excitedly: "Too fast! Gu Ran scored a goal before I even had time to sit down! Southampton really had a dream start! I can feel Gu Ran's strong desire to score! Confirmed! This is the essence of our Red Devils spirit!"

Chelsea's Emenalo was drawing Gu Ran's tactical positioning on his notebook, and he said excitedly, "Oh my God, this high-soccer IQ positioning that showed advance insight! And this powerful shot that seemed to be possessed by God, it can be compared to our Lampard's arrow-piercing shot! Gu Ran is a natural born Chelsea player!"

Edwards of Liverpool adjusted his glasses excitedly, "Oh! My fellow countryman is really great! His shot clearly has the distinct characteristics of Gerrard! Gu Ran has the purest Red Army bloodline!"

Manchester City's Pratt cleared his throat. "Don't you think that Gu Ran's shot is... a lot like mine? That's a force that can break the earth with a stone! I was like this when I was in Serie A!"

At this moment, the Southampton executives in the main stand were also smiling and applauding to celebrate.

"Hahaha! Gu is awesome!"

“This is a perfect start to the home game!”

"I'm so excited now! I don't even need to take the little blue pill tonight!"

"If I'm not mistaken, Gu Ran used Alan Shearer's celebration move!"

"I used to think Alan Shearer's celebration was so tacky, but after seeing it today, I realized it's so damn cool!"

"This is a good start for Southampton. This goal scored in one and a half minutes also indicates that Southampton will definitely be a big winner this season!"

"I can't wait to see Gu Ran play in English Football League One and crush all his opponents!"

"Gu Ran said in the Advance Saints that he wanted to be the top scorer in English Football League One. I think he was being conservative!"

"Hahaha! God bless! Our Southampton is really going to rise!"

The top executives of Southampton Club are all full of confidence!

There was also cheering from the home team's bench.

Coach Adkins stood in the technical area, waving his fists passionately and shouting loudly, "That's right! That's how we play! It's the same tactics I arranged! That's how we play! Pass the ball to Gu Ran more! Break them! Play with the momentum of the Saints!"

Gu Ran ran half a circle on the field with one hand, checking all the negative emotion bubbles dropped by the Toqua United team.

Apart from the "heading competition" that veteran Dennis lost and the "step-down turn" that No. 10 Scott Lundell lost, the skills lost by other Torquay United players are pretty rubbish.

Gu Ran concentrated his mind and caught the ball through mid-air with a header and a turn.

In this way, the header is added to +3 and the step-down turn is added to +2.

The harvest is not big, but it’s acceptable.

After all, Torquay United is a weak team, and it is enough for them to pick up basic football skills.

If you want to get the potential growth reward of high performance in the game against a weaker team, it is not enough to just beat the opponent, you have to beat the opponent severely.

After picking up the ball, Gu Ran quickly ran back to the left back area.

The other Southampton players were also infected by Gu Ran's spirit and quickly ran back to their positions.

Southampton fans were very satisfied with the players' positive attitude! They were even more satisfied with Gu Ran's leadership! The game continued.

Torquay United's No. 10 Scott Rendle and No. 26 Ashley Yeoman kicked off in the center circle with depressed looks on their faces.

Torquay United’s style is that they are not good at defense and prefer fast breaks.

After No. 10 Scott got the ball, he made a short pass to No. 11 Nicky Flo who was making a run in the middle.

Before Nicky could dribble forward after getting the ball, Lallana, Lambert and Schneiderlin formed a triangle defense against him.

Southampton's defensive strength in the middle prevented Nicky from dribbling through and left him with no space to pass the ball forward.

Nicky could only pass the ball to his own left midfielder No. 6 O'Kane.

Schneiderlin immediately moved to the wing, compressing O'Kane's dribbling space.

Southampton's right-back Butterfield also immediately stepped forward and formed a stranglehold on the wing with Schneiderlin.

Lambert also moved to the right to help defend.

The other Southampton players also moved their center of gravity to the right to maintain integrity and compactness.

Southampton's high pressure began to emerge.

Southampton's right side and center are basically airtight.

Gu Ran also moved from the left back area, following the overall formation and moving forward to the center circle.

O'Nan, who had the ball, was under high pressure and could not find a breakthrough route. He could only use his body to hit Butterfield.

Butterfield was knocked to the ground immediately, but O'Nan himself also tripped and fell to the sideline.

The football hit the lying Butterfield and went out of bounds.

Southampton's high pressure was very successful, but unfortunately Butterfield's on-the-spot reaction was a bit rough and he lost the ball out of bounds.

Torquay United's head coach stood in the technical area and yelled, "Hurry up! Hit the weak area!"

Torquay United is indeed very good at fast breaks.

As the head coach of Torquay United was shouting, Ou Nan got up from the ground, picked up the football out of bounds, and threw it hard towards the midfield.

No. 11 Nicky quickly rushed forward and made a bridge pass, heading the ball towards the left side of the Southampton team.

The idea of ​​this fast break was correct. It was to take advantage of the fact that Southampton's focus was still on the midfield and the right side, and to directly attack the relatively spacious left side area.

Southampton's left midfielder Holmes saw where the ball would land and rushed forward to grab it immediately.

Torquay United’s No. 20 right-back and captain Steve Tully rushed up fiercely and pushed down the short Holmes with his hand.

Holmes is at a great disadvantage in physical confrontations.

After Holmes fell to the ground, he got up and chased after the opponent, raising his hand to signal to the referee.

However, the referee believed that Tully's push did not cross the line, so he ignored Holmes' appeal.

After getting the ball, Tuli drove straight into the wide left road!

Southampton's formation immediately shrank.

Gu Ran ran back from a position near the center circle to intercept.

Tuli didn't take Gu Ran seriously at all.

Although Gu Ran's speed is obviously faster than his, Tuli still has a lot of space to dribble. As the captain of Torquay United, Tuli is very confident.

When Gu Ran was about five meters away from Tuli, he suddenly sped up again! He instantly "flashed" to Tuli's side! Chasing back and stealing the ball +3!

Son of the Wind +3! Violent Charge +3!

Bang! Before Tuli could prepare for the physical confrontation, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and then he rolled and was hit to the sideline! The left side is very wide, but... he can't get through! Tuli quickly stood up with his hands and feet, barely protecting the ball with his body, and prepared to stand up and confront Gu Ran head-on.

But Gu Ran didn't give him even half a second. He pushed his hips to block Tuli who was half-kneeling on the grass, and then made a precise steal and snatched the ball.

“Ohhhh!”

Southampton fans roared with excitement.

They never get tired of watching this kind of purely physical confrontation! After Gu Ran successfully intercepted the ball, he dribbled at high speed and took the ball down the left side! The Southampton players were already familiar with Gu Ran's style. The entire Southampton team immediately switched from defense to offense and rushed forward frantically! The reaction of Torquay United was obviously half a beat slower!

The right side of Torquay United was extremely empty! And the defense was extremely lax! When Gu Ran dribbled into the 30-meter area at high speed, only a right forward Jack Thomson stepped forward to intercept Gu Ran.

Jack Thompson was aggressive and obviously intended to use a rough foul to disrupt Gu Ran's defensive counterattack.

Gu Ran didn't intend to get entangled with Jack Thompson, so he just kicked the ball forward and pushed it ten meters away.

Jack Thompson immediately gave up intercepting Gu Ran, and instead took the best route and turned around to chase the ball!

Gu Ran directly overtook on the outside lane!

Black-haired Bell! The classic scene reappears! Gu Ran's speed completely crushes Jack Thomson! The violent sprint brings an extremely shocking violent aesthetic! Jack Thomson was shocked and quickly moved to the outside lane and reached out to pull Gu Ran.

However, he couldn't even touch Gu Ran's shadow!

Gu Ran caught up with the football like lightning and received the pass he had made three seconds ago! This exciting scene immediately made the adrenaline of the Southampton fans at the scene explode and cheer wildly!

At this time, Southampton's frontcourt players have basically reached their positions!

There was no need for Gu Ran to cut inside, so he continued to move down the field.

At least three defensive players of Torquay United rushed to block the attack.

The goalkeeper of Torquay United also moved towards the near corner of the goal with a nervous look on his face.

Gu Ran lowered his shoulder like Matthews, knocked down one of the defensive players who rushed up to press, and then pretended to cut into the small penalty area -

It is extremely difficult to cut in from here, and even if you succeed, there is almost no angle for shooting.

But Gu Ran's feint attack still deceived more Torquay United defensive players.

When all the attention of the Torquay United team was focused on blocking Gu Ran's cut, Gu Ran suddenly stopped, then made a turn with a step, and made a rainbow pass, passing the ball back to Lallana who had already moved to the middle of the penalty area! A classic inverted triangle pass! This kick was passed in the semi-encirclement of Torquay United's five defensive players, which can be called a god's kick! This kick was so comfortable, not only was the force and angle right, but more importantly, Gu Ran cleared the obstacles in the penalty area! Lallana is now unmarked - at least for 3 seconds, absolutely no one will interfere!

For professional players, even a one-second gap, let alone three seconds, is fatal, not to mention that Lallana is a striker with the strength of the English Premier League! Lallana stopped the ball with his left foot, followed up with his right foot, and shot directly!

However, it was too late! Although Lallana's shot was not as exciting as Gu Ran's, its power and accuracy were both at the Premier League level!

The football whizzed past goalkeeper Sam's fingertips like a cannonball and shot into the net! The ball went in! St. Mary's Stadium was boiling again!

Six minutes into the game, Southampton scored two goals in a row! Gu Ran blew up the entire right side of Torquay United by himself and gave Lallana a perfect Gu-style pass!

The score on the big screen was changed to Southampton 2:0 Torquay United.

After scoring the goal, Lallana excitedly pointed his hands at Gu Ran who was feeding him the ball, and excitedly rushed towards Gu Ran, straddling Gu Ran! Gu Ran was not polite, hugged Lallana with one hand and ran wildly on the court to celebrate, raised his other hand and chopped the wind with one hand... stacking buffs!

All the Southampton fans at the scene were screaming wildly!

Especially those female fans, they pulled out their underwear and waved them around!

Southampton fans have been depressed for the past few years! They were relegated from the Premier League to the Championship, and then from the Championship to the League One. They were bullied for a season in the League One and only got a mid-table ranking. And now! In Gu Ran's first season, in his first home game, he scored two goals in 6 minutes! ... After all the hard work, it's finally over! Damn it! Some diehard Saints were intoxicated, with tears in their eyes!

Although this was just a friendly match, and the opponent was Torquay United, a League Two team with lax defense, the Southampton fans really saw hope!

Although it was Lallana who scored the goal, everyone knows that the biggest contributor to this goal was Gu Ran!

Gu Ran intercepted the fast break that Torquay United was proud of, turned the whole situation from defense to offense, and rushed to the left side, making a wonderful pass to assist! This was not the first time that Gu Ran and Lallana had cooperated! The cooperation between the two in the midfield and frontcourt had already produced a very significant chemical reaction!

Coach Adkins pumped his fist excitedly, "That's right! That's how you kick! That's how you kick!"

The exclusive coach Jacob shouted excitedly: "Gu Ran was trained by me using the Real Madrid method!"

The exclusive nutritionist, Loina, said excitedly: "Gu Ran is so strong because I fed him myself!"

Team doctor Mai Fu said with great pride: "I check Gu Ran every day! I even take care of every pore of Gu Ran!"

Gregory, the physical therapist, took out the fascia knife and said, "For Gu Ran, I practiced knife skills very hard!"

Elizabeth in the wives' group area screamed like a star-chasing little fan: "Ahhhhhh! Gu! I love you! I love you!"

Evelin in the media area was trying hard to suppress the pleasure in her heart. She lowered her voice and murmured tremblingly, "...I can't take it anymore. It's too fast! I haven't even finished the pleasure just now, and it's coming again! Oh!"

Manchester United's Lawler gasped in shock, "Gu, this is going crazy! One shot and one pass in 6 minutes! This efficiency is too strong!"

Chelsea's Emenalo was drawing a tactical diagram while exclaiming: "Gu's running and tearing are just like God himself playing football!"

Liverpool's Edwards also shook his head in disbelief. "Gubby improved even more during the Anfield battle! I can't believe it's only been a week! At his rate of improvement, he will be able to sweep across Europe with us Liverpool in less than a year!"

Manchester City's Pratt smiled happily and said, "The head coach of Torquay United must have felt the confusion, helplessness, and despair I felt when facing Gu Ran! I'm so glad that I don't have to experience this feeling anymore! Because Gu Ran will soon be a member of our Manchester City team!"

On the football field, Gu Ran ran half a circle while holding Lallana, and by the way, he picked up a "cut in from the wing" and a "sudden stop acceleration".

In this way, Gu Ran's cut-in from the wing will be stacked to +3, and his emergency stop acceleration will also be stacked to +3.

These two skills are also basic skills, and Gu Ran needs to strengthen such basic skills in the low-level leagues.

A personal system rating of B can stack skills up to +4 at most. If you want to break this limit, you have to raise the system rating to A.

To advance from B to A, you need to obtain and use 50 talent points, have at least 15 sub-attributes reach 75 points, and officially debut in professional competitions.

Earn and use 50 talent points, and that's definitely enough.

Appearing in an official professional match is a satisfaction - although the pre-season friendly matches do not count for points, they are definitely official professional matches.

The really difficult part is to get at least 15 sub-attributes to reach 75 points.

Gu Ran now has exactly 15 known sub-attributes, but 8 of them are less than 75 points.

Of course, some sub-attributes that are not displayed may be slightly higher than the 8 known sub-attributes, especially the mental attributes, but it is estimated that it is difficult to directly exceed 75 points.

Therefore, it will take time and accumulation to reach system rating A.

There are still 6 pickups left for today.

After this wave of pickups, Gu Ran put Lallana down and turned to run towards the left back's defense area.

Lallana: …

You were hugging me passionately just now, why did you suddenly become cold to me?

Is there something I didn't do well enough?

Should I repay Gu Ran with my heart?

The game continues.

Torquay United, which was two goals behind, started to get a little impatient and started to fight for the ball more.

Southampton, who were leading by two goals, played more and more methodically, and their high-pressure skills were greatly trained in actual combat.

The game was in the 15th minute.

Torquay United was blocked during a fast break and lost the ball. Gu Ran used his physical strength to grab the ball in the first possible moment despite the foul-level double-teaming of two Torquay United midfielders.

The two Torquay United players pulled and tugged Gu Ran to the ground, preventing Gu Ran from launching a quick counterattack.

Southampton fans immediately booed the Torquay United players.

The referee blew the whistle at the right time and awarded Southampton a free kick in the backcourt.

Gu Ran got up, and without any pause, he passed the ball directly to the backcourt -

The football flew more than fifty meters in the air and landed accurately on Schneiderlin on the right.

Southampton's quick counterattack revived! Southampton fans were screaming like crazy! This indomitable fighting spirit was really too passionate! Torquay United panicked instantly! They thought they could stop Gu Ran's quick counterattack by pulling him down, but they didn't expect Gu Ran to be able to quickly make such a high-quality long pass.

Schneiderlin saw the landing point without any pressure from defense, easily stopped the ball under his feet, and then accelerated to break into the penalty area.

Torquay United's central defender No. 4 Mark Ellis rushed out of the penalty area and roughly knocked Schneiderlin to the ground.

After Schneiderlin stood up, he immediately applauded Gu Ran who made the long pass - Gu Ran's passing vision was really great.

Within one minute, Torquay United committed two fouls.

Southampton fans booed Mark Ellis wildly.

The referee called Mark Ellis to his side and gave him a warning.

After all, it was a friendly match, and the referee did not want to control the game by drawing cards.

Southampton got a free kick on the right side outside the penalty area. The straight-line distance between the ball and the goal was about twenty-five or twenty-six meters.

The first penalty taker Lallana stepped up to take the free kick.

Torquay United urgently formed a human wall.

Southampton's tall players also stood at the front line, ready to respond at any time.

With the position of the free kick, if it were Gu Ran, he could have shot directly.

Lallana glanced at the human wall, then took a run and kicked.

The human wall of Torquay United immediately jumped up to block the free kick, but the free kick was not shot directly at the goal, nor was it aimed at the height inside the penalty area. Instead, it was a low ball kicked to the left side of the penalty area!

Before the Toquay United team could react, Gu Ran, who was lying in ambush on the periphery, ran forward like a ghost. Without even stopping the ball, he flew into the air and hooked the ball with his right foot!

The football went around the left side of the human wall and changed direction two meters in front of the goal!

The ball changed too quickly! Torquay United goalkeeper Sam Pearce's vision was obstructed, and by the time he noticed the ball bouncing off the ground, it was too late!

Sam Pierce is at it again!

The football bounced into the net!

The ball went in!!! More than 30,000 St. Mary's players went wild!

Southampton fans roared at the top of their lungs! In the 17th minute of the first half, the score on the big screen immediately changed to Southampton 3:0 Torquay United!

The first half was not even halfway through and Torquay United had already been destroyed by Southampton!

This is a massacre! Gu Ran scored twice in his first home debut, one assist and two shots! This goal is really amazing! Even more amazing than the previous two goals! Now, there is still more than half of the game time, and everyone believes that Gu Ran can complete a hat trick in his debut today!

If he can complete a hat-trick on his debut, Gu Ran will become the first Saints player to complete a hat-trick on his debut after Alan Shearer! What's more exciting is that, of the three goals scored by Southampton, except for the first one which was a combination between Gu Ran and Lambert, the second and third goals were all the result of a connection between Gu Ran and Lallana!

Gu Lala connected! Lallana happily rushed forward to hug Gu Ran! Gu Ran chopped the wind with one hand, excitedly running all over the field... and continued to stack buffs!

The head coach of Torquay United was furious in the technical area, "Mark closely! Mark closely! Why don't you mark the number 8 on the opposite side? Why let number 8 shoot! Don't treat him as a full-back! Treat him as a striker!"

The players of Torquay United were all extremely depressed and ashamed, with blue skill bubbles under their feet.

They had thought about losing this friendly match.

But they really didn't expect that they would be tortured so badly by Gu Ran alone.

If we continue to play like this, I'm afraid Gu Ran will kick us into double digits today...
