Chapter 242: The Yangtze River's Back Waves Push Forward

Chelsea's Alan Wong is definitely the hottest topic in the Premier League this year.

Only six rounds of the league have passed, but he has scored 11 goals, an average of two goals per game, which makes all the superstars of the Premier League teams pale in comparison.

For Chelsea fans, Henry, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Rooney, Shearer, Heskey… who are they? ---

We only know Alan.

So, when Wang Li stood up, took off his coat, and ran to the sidelines of the green field to prepare to go on stage, the Chelsea fans in the audience were excited and cheered. In the eyes of Chelsea fans, the name Alan Wang is almost equivalent to goals.

On the other hand, the Newcastle fans were in a gloomy mood. They all thought to themselves: "Didn't Chelsea say they didn't care about this game? Why did they let Alan Wang play?"

However, despite thinking so, they did not lose confidence because they saw Padrick Kluivert on the field, the team's new star James Milner, and Craig Bellamy who had always performed well...

"Come on Newcastle"

"Let that kid eat shit"

"Try to take him out and score another goal"

…

After the Newcastle fans reacted, there was a commotion in the stands. They stood up one after another and shouted slogans to cheer for the team. The momentum of tens of thousands of fans drowned out the voices of the Blues fans. With the outburst of Newcastle fans, the entire stadium turned into a sea of ​​black and white.

But isn't this a way of covering up cowardice?

Yes, they are afraid.

………

At the beginning of the game, Mourinho didn't even consider letting Wang Li play. In his mind, it didn't matter if he lost the game, so that Chelsea could reduce the number of games in the future.

However, after watching the entire game, the Portuguese did not expect that this substitute lineup actually tied with Newcastle United, which made him very happy and satisfied with the performance of several substitute players. So he immediately changed his mind and wanted to win this game, which would definitely make these substitute players more confident, which would be very helpful for the games after this season.

So, Wang Li naturally came on as a substitute.

At this time, almost all Newcastle United players on the field stared at the black-haired boy No. 21 who had just come on the field. They knew that in the next period of time, the team might face difficulties. There is no false reputation. Since this boy can score two goals per game, his offensive ability is unquestionable.

Among them, Padraic Kluivert is the worst.

Seeing Wang Li on the field and thinking of this kid's record, Kluivert seemed to see himself 10 years ago, when he scored the winning goal for Ajax at the last moment in the European Cup final. He felt that this kid was very similar to himself, both of them became famous at a young age and both of them were strong. 'Yes, he is only missing a championship trophy to become a real star.'

At this moment, Kluivert turned into a prophet. He seemed to have seen Wang Li's future...

So, after the opening, Kluivert ran directly to Wang Li, stopped beside him, and said: "Your recent performance is very good."

Wang Li turned his head and looked at the short-haired player next to him in confusion, wondering if he was praising him or provoking him. He rubbed his head and watched the backcourt player pass the ball. At the same time, he just responded with a casual "Oh".

“Two goals per game is amazing.”

"oh……"

“Maybe by this time next year, you’ll be famous all over the world.”

"oh……"

"I really miss my youth. To be honest, you and I are exactly the same when we were young."

"oh……"

At this time, Wang Li looked at the dark-skinned man next to him in confusion and asked, "By the way, who are you...?"

“…”

If it was Kluivert 10 years ago, he would definitely point his thumb at himself and say proudly: "Kid, remember, my name is Padrick Kluivert. Remember this name, it will spread all over the world with football."

But now, Kluivert was speechless. He just realized that there were actually professional players in the Premier League who didn't know him. This discovery hit him hard, especially after he had just spoken in the tone of a senior.

'Am I really old and have a generation gap with these young people? ' Kluivert thought with some sadness---

"But, I'm only 28 years old..."

………

When Kluivert was still complaining about himself, Wang Li was no longer beside him. Taking advantage of an attacking opportunity of the Chelsea team, he received a pass from his teammate on the right side of the penalty area, then turned and kicked the ball straight into the penalty area. The ball flew along the grass to Gudjansen's feet, who turned around and shot directly at the ball.

The opponent's goalkeeper made a great save of the football, but with a push of his hands, the ball went past the post and flew out of the bottom line.

This kick made Newcastle United fans break out in a cold sweat

Only then did they realize that the black-haired boy on the field was not only outstanding in scoring goals, but also ranked second in the Premier League assists list. It was just that the brilliance of his goals was too dazzling and overshadowed his abilities in other areas.

Old Robson on the bench was also feeling a little uneasy. He had thought that the game would be won easily. After all, clubs like Chelsea would usually choose to give up the League Cup in the first game. When he saw that the opponent had lined up all the substitutes, he also put down the heavy stone in his heart.

But the game did not go according to Robson's idea. The opponent relied on a substitute lineup and tied Newcastle United 1:1. Now it has come to the last moment of the game, but the opponent has replaced the first striker. If this situation is allowed to develop, it is obvious that the team is likely to lose.

However, Robson really had no good solution. He wanted to change the situation, but he had no available players. What could he do? He could only pray silently in his heart.

Back on the field, Chelsea's attack was not over yet, they still seized the opportunity to take the initiative.

The ball was placed at the corner kick spot, and Joe Cole walked towards the corner kick pole. When Lampard was not on the field, Joe Cole became the team's first penalty taker. He looked at the dense crowd in the penalty area, jumped a few times on the spot, and waited for the referee's whistle.

During this period, Wang Li felt very relaxed, and the opposing coach did not arrange any defensive strategies against him. Since he came on the court, there was only one defender following him, which made his performance smooth and comfortable.

Now, Wang Li stood in Newcastle's small penalty area, squeezing the defensive players in front and behind him to leave some space for himself so that he would have a chance to jump up and head the ball.

Soon, the ball flew towards the penalty area. Joe Cole's free kick did not disappoint Wang Li. The ball drew an arc in the air and rushed straight down towards his head.

Wang Li steadied his body, staring at the falling football. When it fell to a certain level, he silently channeled his inner strength into his legs, and suddenly squeezed them back and forth twice. Then he exerted force with his legs, and his whole body jumped into the air. He looked up and shook his head in rhythm.

The football goes straight into the goal corner

This ball directly hit old Robson's heart into the bottomless abyss.

………

………

At St. James' Park, Newcastle United fans wearing black and white striped jerseys have left one after another. Yes, they couldn't bear to see their team lose the game.

When Wang Li scored that goal, Newcastle United was doomed to failure. Even though there were still a few minutes left in the game, everyone in the stadium knew that Newcastle United had already lost.

They didn't lose to Chelsea, they lost to themselves.

When the score was behind, Newcastle United players could not find any form at all. They had no confidence in equalizing the score and only wanted the game to end quickly. This made their offense lack momentum and even their defense was weak. In another Chelsea attack, Joe Cole's weak shot outside the penalty area almost turned into a goal.

In their own home court, facing Chelsea's substitute lineup, the game ended in this situation in the final minutes. Do these players have no confidence in the team's future, or do they have no confidence in their own abilities?

Is the team, like Alan Shearer, Patrick Kluivert and even head coach Robson, already out of date and only living on the afterglow of the past?

Maybe…

Maybe…

At least, this game gave Chelsea strong confidence, and they will have enough psychological advantage when they face Newcastle United again in the league.

………

After the game, while the Chelsea players were still on the field, Alan Shearer ran to the Chelsea bench, found Wang Li, and said, "Hello, my name is Alan Shearer. You played really well in the game. Can we exchange jerseys?"

Wang Li turned around, smiled, and said, "Okay."

After saying that, he took off his jersey on the spot, which made the Blues fans who were about to get up and leave in the stands stop immediately with excitement. Then many people raised their DVs and started filming. For them, it was rare to see Wang Li naked.

Those crazy female fans might pay a high price to buy the photos.

After Wang Li and Shearer exchanged jerseys, they walked towards the player tunnel while talking. Unlike Kluivert who has always been in La Liga, Alan Shearer has always been in the Premier League, so Wang Li certainly knows this legendary star and his past achievements.

Although he is confident that he can surpass Shearer's achievements, Alan Shearer can still be regarded as his predecessor in the England team.

Padrick Kluivert, who was secretly worried for a while, looked at the backs of Wang Li and Shearer on the court, and sighed silently in his heart: "Maybe, this is the transition of the old and the new in the England team, the new generation will push the old generation forward."

'So, I'm only 28, so what?'
