Chapter 1320 Wembley, Not a Dream

No one knew what price Chen Yingxiong had paid for this semi-final and what preparations he had made.

In fact, Chen Yingxiong himself is looking forward to this training session, because this is the only way to test whether his method is effective.

He had been working hard in the dungeon before, but he didn't know if it was useful. Like the players in the reserve team, he couldn't control anything other than doing his best.

Although this joint training session came a bit late, it was very important.

If it doesn't work...Chen Yingxiong has to consider being more selfish in the game. He would rather be called "independence" by others and bring the team to the final!
Now the effect of the joint training is very good, as if the two parties have been training together for a long time.

Seeing the astonished eyes of those teammates, Chen Yingxiong heaved a sigh of relief, and felt complacent - Lao Tzu's method is still useful... I am indeed a genius!a ha ha ha!

Happy to be happy, but after the training, Chen Yingxiong had to face those curious teammates. The question they were most interested in was-how could Chen Yingxiong be so relaxed in training and cooperate with them so tacitly?They originally planned to do their best to cooperate with Chen Yingxiong, but they didn't expect that they didn't need to do this. They just needed to go as usual, and they could cooperate quite well with Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong had already prepared a set of arguments for this.

"Doesn't this mean that there is a tacit understanding between us?" He asked everyone, "We have played together for two seasons. Although the number of times is good, we have also accumulated a lot of tacit understanding. Especially in the game, this is the best way to have a fast tasteless tacit understanding. Good way. I think this just shows our companions fighting side by side!" He said to the reserve team players very seriously.

Although this explanation is a bit far-fetched, it is true and credible to the reserve team players who admire Chen Yingxiong. In other words, they would rather believe that this is true than question this-it can be regarded as fighting side by side by heroes. Companion, what an honor!How can they still question the authenticity of this matter?Don't you want to be a companion who fights side by side with heroes?
Especially at this time, the joy of being able to participate in the FA Cup semi-finals dazzled their minds, so they couldn't care less to think about the flaws in Chen Yingxiong's words.

Many people just think - so we have established such a deep tacit understanding with the hero without knowing it!

After training, having showered and changed in the dressing room, the team was coached to John Lennon Airport, from where they would fly to London.

I don’t know how many times the players of the reserve team have been to London. Not counting their individual actions, even if they act collectively, the reserve team is going to London to play in the reserve league. There are many professional teams in London. Always go to London several times.

But this time was different. Everyone on the plane was full of excitement, as if they were going to a big party.

The FA Cup semi-final!

They originally thought that they would only be spectators like the League Cup, but they didn't expect that they would really be the protagonists this time!

Why are they in the League Cup and FA Cup?Isn't it just to be able to show yourself on a broader stage?Attract more people's attention and strive for a better future for your own future.

Being able to go to a place like Wembley Stadium to participate in the FA Cup semi-finals, their goal can be said to have achieved half of their goal.

This is the best stage. For British players, what Wembley Stadium means, they couldn't be more clear.

Everyone is looking forward to what he will do in the semi-finals and how he will change his destiny...

Before Liverpool announced their squad for this game, no one knew that they had decided to use the reserve team to play this semi-final.

When the Liverpool reserve team stepped onto the plane, Liverpool also announced the full 18-man squad on their own official website.

Journalists flocked to Liverpool's official website to download the list from it.

Then when I opened it, I was stunned at first glance.

"what is this!!!"

Many reporters roared at the computer screen.

Only Chen Yingxiong was the name they were most familiar with, and none of the others were players in Liverpool's first team!
Then they began to frantically search for the list of Liverpool's previous FA Cup appearances, and they easily found the names in the big list.

One is not bad, all of them are in this big list!
The reporters who discovered this fact were all stunned!
Liverpool!
it turns out!

Use the reserve team!

Come play this FA Cup!

Semifinals!
Are they crazy?Is Martin O'Neill crazy?

After the initial shock, many people began to wonder what was behind this unusual fact.

give up!

Many people immediately thought of this possibility.

Martin O'Neill must have decided to give up the FA Cup because the team's schedule is too dense and there are too many games.After all, there is a great chance to win the championship in the league, and the most important goal is only the Champions League.In order to finally reach the final of the Champions League, or simply win the championship, the FA Cup must be given up. Otherwise, at the most critical time, the FA Cup will come out and cause trouble. will be stretched.

Although this reason is actually not very tenable, because the FA Cup final was on May 28th, and there was no Champions League match nearby at that time, and the semi-finals of the Champions League ended on April 22th, and the final will be Wait until May [-] to start.

There is no interference.

But apart from this reason, the reporters couldn't think of why Liverpool would do this even if they wanted to break their heads.

Sending all reserve team players plus Chen Yingxiong to participate in the FA Cup semi-finals, do they think Chen Yingxiong alone is enough to solve Tottenham?
Even so, with Martin O'Neill's style, he has no reason to do so.You must know that if this was not an intentional abandonment, it would be to completely ignore the semi-final opponent Tottenham Hotspur.But O'Neill can't do such arrogant things.

So I can only give up, deliberately give up the FA Cup, and strive for more rest opportunities for Liverpool. At the same time, it also allows the coaches and players to stop thinking about the FA Cup final, so as not to waste too much energy.

It's just... so naked, giving up without any cover-up, really... is it okay?

After arriving in London in the afternoon, Liverpool went to the hotel to drop off their luggage, and went straight to Wembley Stadium, where they went for training to adapt to the venue.The head coach O'Neill participated in the pre-match press conference provided by the event organizer.

Liverpool were the first to acclimatise, Tottenham were behind them because Tottenham were already in London and they didn't have to start so early.

From the moment they walked down the tunnel at Wembley Stadium, to the time they entered the dressing room and stepped onto the pitch, Liverpool's reserve team looked a little excited.

Wembley Stadium is the home of the England national team, where the England national team plays, as well as the semi-finals and finals of the League Cup, Community Shield Cup and FA Cup.

For the reserve team players, they will not have many opportunities to play in this stadium.Unless they can be selected for the national team, or can participate in the semi-finals and finals of the League Cup, the FA Cup, and the Community Shield Cup.

Even the FA Youth Cup will do.

It’s just that the last time the Liverpool youth team reached the final of the FA Youth Cup was in the 2008-2009 season. Where are they all scattered...

So in this Liverpool reserve team, there are really few players who can come to Wembley Stadium to play.Therefore, it is easy to understand that they behave like bumpkins.

Evans was the main central defender in the reserve team, and he was also the one who was most dissatisfied with the first team taking their chances.

When he walked out of the player channel and came to the edge of the court, he didn't step in directly, but knelt down on one knee, touching and pressing the turf with his hands, feeling the condition of the turf.

Chen Yingxiong, who saw him doing this, asked, "What are you doing, Evans?"

Evans raised his head to look at Chen Yingxiong, and glared at him, "I want to feel it, to see if I'm dreaming."

Chen Yingxiong was amused by him: "Then feel it with your feet."

Not counting Chen Yingxiong, Spilling is the most experienced first-team player in this reserve team. He once came to Wembley Stadium as a Liverpool player, but he didn't get the chance to play-that's Dag During Leish's coaching period, Liverpool reached the League Cup final and won the championship.

Standing on the court at this moment, he couldn't help being a little dazed.

When he spent a season or two in the reserve team, he felt that he should have no place in the Liverpool first team.In fact, his agent is also busy finding a home for him. Compared with other reserve team teammates, it is easier for him because he has previously played in Liverpool's first team.

But he didn't expect to leave Liverpool, but he got the chance to represent Liverpool's first team at Wembley Stadium.

This is really an impermanent world...

He will not reconsider staying because of this, and continue to wait for the opportunity.He is 26 years old, the same age as Chen Yingxiong, even half a year younger than Chen Yingxiong, but looking at the achievements of himself and Chen Yingxiong, he is really unwilling to wait any longer.

But before leaving this beloved team, he still hopes to write his name in the history of the club and make a contribution for her.

He stood on the field in a daze for a short moment, then remembered his identity as the captain of the reserve team, and he greeted those teammates who were still in a daze.

"Warm up! Warm up! Don't waste time! We're not tourists here!"
