Head

Chapter 13 Starting with the Bench

Niu Shisan's performance did indeed threaten Foster's position, but after all, there is still an unforgettable gap between the two, that is professional game experience. Although Foster himself does not have much, years of wandering is capital. Ferguson still chose him in the first round of the league.

Van der Sar's injury is not a good thing for Ferguson, but it is still beneficial for the future of Manchester United. At least this opportunity can be used to test Foster's strength.

But what worries Foster is that the goalkeeper sitting on the bench is not Kushchak, but Niu Shisan.

Foster can be confident that he can continue to improve in the future, because compared to the seniors in this position, he is still very young, but the one on the bench seems to be much younger than him. Even if this age is not a threat now, as long as I made a mistake. Who can guarantee that Ferguson will not consider using young people. After all, it is all about training, so it is reasonable for Niu Shisan, who is younger and has more potential, to appear on the stage.

Under pressure, Foster's performance is very positive.

And Thirteen off the court seemed to be doing nothing, staring at the court with blank eyes, sitting quietly.

This is not the first time Niu Shisan has come to Old Trafford. The hustle and bustle did not affect him, because he grew up here, he also worked as a ball boy, and now he is still an apprentice.It's just because Edwin who was assigned to him didn't participate in the training, he didn't have to shine his shoes, and this kind of thing will happen in the future.

He is actually very calm in his heart now. Although this day came earlier unexpectedly in his plan, it at least proves that he is capable. The competition with Park Ji-sung gave him a lot of confidence. Being practiced by several free-kickers did not make him feel the blow. On the contrary, many people wondered whether his strength had become weaker. Otherwise, why would he take many shots directly instead of letting go.

Niu Shisan has plenty of opportunities and time. What he needs to do now is not to compete with Foster for the starting lineup, but to take the position after Van der Sar left, and the most important thing is that he is not ready yet, despite his self-confidence It has come up, but the competition of the youth team is less competitive after all, and the opponents they face are also simpler.In professional games, Niu Shisan still needs to learn.

In the first round of the league, Manchester United played against Birmingham. Manchester United took the initiative at the beginning, but unfortunately they failed to change the score on the field.

During the game, Rooney's many shots were saved by the opponent's goalkeeper Joe Hart. Looking at the opponent's embarrassed figure, Niu Shisan even showed an envious expression. He felt that he fell in love with the role of the destroyer and ended all perfect cooperation. Perfect shot.

On the other side, Foster seems to be much more relaxed, but this kind of ease is more of a test, because a moment of negligence or relaxation may face a sudden shot.

The deadlock was broken in the 304th minute. Rooney's header hit the post and popped out, and the ball just bounced to Rooney's feet. At this time, Joe Hart had lost his position and had no way to face the supplementary shot.

Seeing such a shot, Thirteen could only curl his lips. There is no way to change any goalkeeper with such an opportunity.To be honest, if the world's top goalkeeper may directly save the first time, and then there are two situations, one is the ball hits the back and bounces into the goal, and the other is that the ball does not touch the ball and is shot by someone.

After the celebration here, Birmingham took a corner kick, and everyone who followed Manchester United had a heartbeat. Foster's position selection was not a mistake. Maybe he was a little nervous. He went out early, but he didn't expect the opponent to He chose a header lob. Fortunately, Evra stood where he should appear and pushed the ball out.

Thirteen, who only focused his eyes on the front of both sides, habitually led himself into the goalkeepers of both sides, his feet kept shaking, and the tension in it was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

After the first game, his biggest feeling was that Birmingham goalkeeper Joe Hart seemed to trust his teammates more than Foster. He made many attacks throughout the game. Although he could not defend all of them, he still had teammates. , such as Kutrulu, who blocked at least two must-go goals on the goal line.

Joe Hart abandoned the door because there was no one in front of him. This comparison makes Foster's attack blind. After all, there are three defenders in front of him.

The league got off to a good start, and Sir Alex was also open-minded. Whether it was Rooney in front or Foster in the back, they all received unanimous praise. For a while, England, who was designated as Van der Sar's substitute, flourished, as if Manchester United had already Into the age of Foster.

Then there was a series of calls to find Ronaldo. It seems that Manchester United has not made up for the impact of losing Ronaldo.

All the praise conceals Niu Shisan, the goalkeeper on the bench. In the eyes of many reporters, his value may only be limited to the expectations of the next few years.

But that's fine, Niu Shisan is still living his own life, and he still comes to the training ground early every day to practice basic movements, and then accepts the coach's guidance, jumping left and right, jumping up and down and rolling.

During the team's offensive and defensive matches during the period, Niu Shisan stood in front of the goal of the attacking side. Except for a few long-range shots, he was basically not threatened. In the confrontation, Ferguson gave the opportunity to Kushchak, and nothing happened to him.

Facing the second round a few days later, facing another newly promoted Burnley, Ferguson carried out a large-scale rotation. Six players who started the first round were replaced. Irving got the chance to start. Luo also came to the scene, but throughout the game, Manchester United wasted many offensive opportunities, and was even seized by the opponent.

The defense faced its first test of the season.

Regarding Foster's conceded goal, Niu Shisan thought for a long time and still felt that if it was him at that time, he must have thrown it out. Although it was a bit of an afterthought, after all, there was no one in front of him. Going out may be able to put some pressure on the other party.

I want to think about it in my heart, but whether I can do it or not is another matter, but who can say it clearly if I haven't played!Niu Shisan is very envious of the opponent's goalkeeper who saved a penalty. He seems to enjoy the feeling of being single-handed. Unfortunately, this kind of thinking is very dangerous for a team. What the goalkeeper should hope is the front goal. It was deserted.On the football field, it is safest to neglect traffic and horses in front of the goal, although this is not a challenge.

Shisan's favorite goalkeeper is Kahn, because this buddy can thunder the opponent's forward with his voice; but Shisan envies Casillas the most, he thinks that Real Madrid's defense line, let's call it the defense line, after all The person standing in front of him is still a defender.Being behind such a defensive line is very exercising and exciting, but it is a pity that this cannot happen at Manchester United. If Ferguson wants to do this, it is estimated that he should be retirement now.

The seniors all said that people are trained on the bench, but Niu Shisan still hopes to hear Ferguson's call in his heart. After all, only when he is on the court can he truly feel the game. You learn something by playing the game.

This game just gave him a chance to get to know the role of the goalkeeper. The reality told him that the Premier League is not so easy. The competition for the position of the goalkeeper is also fierce, and it seems that the older you get, the better you become. The Dane Jensen interpreted it very well In the sense of maturity, saving Carrick's penalty may be attributed to luck, but there are not many Manchester United players who can be aggrieved.
