Chapter 050: Phone Call in the Locker Room

After the half-time break, Dave replaced Wang Li, who had an outstanding performance, Iverson, who was a little exhausted, and defensive general Irwin with three young players, Harrison, Pitt and Lescott. With a four-goal lead, Dave could focus on training the new players.

This is Pete's first time in the Premier League. He is a little nervous and excited.

In fact, in normal training, Pete's performance is no worse than Harrison's. You know, Pete was the only star of Wolverhampton youth team before, and his strength is unquestionable.

The reason why Dave rarely sent him out was because Pete was not as good as Harrelson in terms of awareness and positioning, and the experience of such a young player could not be compared with that of Miller and other generals. Therefore, in the team, Pete could only be regarded as a qualified forward, but he had no outstanding characteristics. If such a player wanted to stand out, he had to rely on his own efforts and the trust of the head coach.

Although Leeds United head coach Reid rearranged the tactics during the half-time break and analyzed the overall gap between Wolverhampton and Leeds United in order to encourage his players, after the start of the second half, the performance of most Leeds United players was not much better than in the first half. Even though Wang Li had left the field, they only tied with Wolverhampton.

In the 62nd minute of the game, Alan Smith dribbled past Newton, Cameron and Butler and reached the baseline. Seeing that there was no chance in the middle, he knocked the ball back to Pennant who came to receive the ball. Pennant turned left and right and made a big circle with the Wolverhampton defenders. Then, relying on his personal strength, he shot directly from more than 20 meters away from the goal. Faced with this sudden attack, goalkeeper Oaks was a little careless. He only had time to turn his head and watch the ball fly into the goal. Leeds United scored a goal and the score became 1:4.

In the 88th minute, on the left, the ball was passed continuously by Miller, Kennedy and Newton. They played a classic three-man short pass. Finally, Miller passed the ball to Peter who was unguarded in front of the penalty area. Facing this hard-won opportunity, Peter was soft and his shot was directly saved by Robinson. However, just when the Leeds United defenders were relieved, Harrison suddenly appeared in front of the ball and shot directly into the empty goal, and the score became 1:5.

After the Wolverhampton players finished celebrating, the referee De Urso blew the whistle to end the game, and all the Leeds United players breathed a sigh of relief.

They played very depressingly in this game. They conceded four goals in a row in the first half, which directly affected their performance throughout the game. It also made him remember forever the black-haired young player No. 99 of Wolverhampton, Alan Wang.

In the end, Wolverhampton won the game at Elland Road with a score of 5:1.

After the game, Alan Smith ran towards the Wolverhampton bench. He walked directly to Wang Li and said to him, "Alan, right? Can I call you that?"

Wang Li was stunned. He certainly knew this England international. Although they won the game, they should not underestimate this well-known star. Throughout the game, when Leeds United was in an extremely passive situation, he was the only one who still persisted, even though there was no hope of winning.

"Oh, it's okay, just call me Alan." Wang Li replied with a smile. He still respects such a senior in the football world.

"Then can I exchange jerseys with you? You played really well in this game. Maybe we can be teammates in the future!" Smith said as he took off his sweaty jersey, handed it to Wang Li, and winked at him.

Wang Li certainly understood what he meant. On the one hand, it meant that they would be teammates when he joined the national team. On the other hand, it was also a disguised form of poaching...

He nodded, took off his jersey readily, exchanged it with Smith, and said a few polite words. Then the two separated and returned to their respective teams.

…

In the Wolverhampton dressing room, Pete had a stern face and was bombarding Harrison with words. The other teammates were sitting nearby and watching the two young men having fun with smiles.

"Harry, you are too selfish. It was obviously my shot. You should have passed it to me after you got the ball, so that I could shoot it again!" Peter kept complaining to Harrison. He was still annoyed that he didn't score that time. You know, this was his first time in the Premier League. If he could score a goal, it would be perfect. But he obviously wouldn't attribute the mistake to himself...

After hearing this, Harrison rolled his eyes at him, and then said to him in a serious tone: "Pete, you have to know that shooting a goal on the football field is the same as having sex with a prostitute. You only have one chance. If you want to shoot again, you have to pay again. Do you understand?"

After hearing his explanation, Pete was stunned, and the players next to him laughed. Miller even ran to Harrison and pulled his pants, then covered his stomach and said with a smile: "Hey, Harry, you want to pay for a second shot, do you have the capital?"

Wang Li stood by the door, watching them playing and fighting, smiling helplessly and shaking his head. At this moment, his cell phone rang. He opened it and saw the name displayed on the screen, which made him stunned. He then felt sad and happy at the same time.

That’s right, it was Li Qitong, the girl that Wang Li had almost forgotten…

"Alan, I just watched the live broadcast. Congratulations on winning the game. You scored two goals, that's amazing." A clear and sweet voice came from the other end of the phone. It was spoken in Chinese. Hearing this voice, Wang Li felt his whole body softened.

"Well...thank you, I...I'm fine, hehe." He showed that innocent little virgin expression again, which made the other teammates look at Wang Li suspiciously. Then they all walked over in a low voice, stood next to Wang Li and eavesdropped with their ears perked up. However, Wang Li, who was in a state, obviously didn't know. He only thought in his mind: What should I say?

"Oh...haha, your game was wonderful. As a friend, should you invite me to watch the game in person next time? Although I have never been there, it will definitely be very interesting." On the other end of the phone, Li Qitong heard Wang Li's voice and imagined what he looked like. She smiled and said directly.

"Of course, of course... The next game should be at Molineux Stadium. I'll call you then."

"Well, okay, don't forget to call me... I won't bother you anymore, bye."

Wang Li hung up the phone with a silly smile, and slowly put the phone back into his arms. Then he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. He looked around and was shocked: "What are you all doing here!"

There was a loud bang, and the people around scattered. They listened for a long time but could not understand anything. Chinese was as profound as the Book of Heaven to them...

"Alan, you have a girlfriend, right? Find some time to introduce her to us." Harrison.

"It would be better to find a wife like Alice, that would be more exciting..." Pete.

“……” Miller with a dark face.

"Young man, take care of your health. Football players must be restrained." Old ** worm Kamara...
