Red Rebels

Years later, the most important thing to remember about Messi is his Premier League debut.

Time: October 22, 2003 Venue: Old Trafford Match: Away against Manchester United Situation: 10 to 11, away game, 1:0 behind, the scene was suppressed Playing time: 78th minute of the second half, Palacio Injured, Messi debut age: 16 years and 120 days set the youngest appearance record in the Premier League!

……………………Messi’s first appearance is still standing on the right flank, which is also his best position. On the right flank, he can choose to bottom or cut inside at will. The dominant foot is the left foot, but the right foot technique is also good.

The first touch of the ball was less than a minute after he came on the court. Kaka faced a press from Keane on the middle road and moved the ball to the right. Messi was about to catch the ball, but Fortune, who was catching up, used it once. A ferocious but reasonable collision knocked him out of the way and lost the ball under his feet, allowing United to launch a threatening attack.

However, this collision also completely knocked Messi's nervousness away. He began to run back and forth on the court. After receiving the ball a few times on the right, he did not choose to face Fortune, but knocked back to Kaka or Essien.

Messi's move made Fortune think that it was a show of weakness, because the latter is too young and childish, and Manchester United controlled the situation on the field, which made Fortune feel relieved.

Another 5 minutes passed, and Mourinho had a cold face. He also wondered whether he made the right bet to replace a young player like Messi on this occasion. After all, this is a Red Devils derby, the whole of England, and even A game that Europe is watching, he's just a 16-year-old.

But looking at Villa and Ribery, they are not the kind of players with super one-on-one ability. Villa is a finisher in front of goal. His speed and skills are good, but he needs to retreat to break through the winger. , which is definitely embarrassing him.

Ribery's offensive ability is very strong, but he relies more on his explosiveness. His skills are good, but his skills in a small area are not very good. In the face of Manchester United's three-back defensive tactics, even if He played, but it didn't make much difference.

Looking at the lineup, there are two who are best at excelling in a small area. One is Palacio and the other is Messi. The former is injured and the latter is on the bench. Although he is young, Mourinho still wants to. Let him try it.

Seeing that Kaka was blocked from dribbling the ball in the middle and knocked back, Mourinho turned his head to look at the relaxed Ferguson, and scolded angrily, "Fuck, why don't you just take your team's bus Cars coming in and blocking the goal?"

Of course, Ferguson didn't hear Mourinho's scolding, and the latter didn't care. As long as he can win the game, he doesn't care. Anyway, he scored 3 points. No matter how fierce you scolded Mourinho, Can you still bite me?

……………………Messi failed to get a chance in front, and he had to drop back a little to the midline area.

He is very familiar with the tactical system, and he has grown up in this system in the past few years, so he knows that the front is very lonely, and he can increase his support to the midfield after the retreat.

Sure enough, after the retracement, Essien quickly stole the ball and gave it to his feet.

Manchester United midfielder Kleberson and Fortune pressed towards Messi. As soon as Messi received the ball, Fortune was already coming up. He reflexively moved towards the middle, avoiding Fortune, and the instep of his left foot was swept away. Dial, took advantage of the trend to pass Kleberson, and just within a narrow range, passed the pressing of two Manchester United defenders.

Messi's dexterous movements in the past two people are amazing. The fans on the scene watched him cut diagonally to the penalty area. Many fans stood up and were about to cheer for him, and more exciting came!

Sylvester grabbed the front of the penalty area, hoping to block Messi, and Fortune behind him was chasing after him. Feeling that Fortune should be going to slide the shovel, and Sylvester has just arrived at the position,

Heart is hard.

He flicked the ball sideways with his left foot, avoiding Fortune's sliding tackle, and at the same time he swayed Sylvester away, accelerated and rushed up, then dunked his right foot to the right, passing Ferdinand who was posted.

From outside the penalty area to the penalty area, in this extremely narrow distance, Messi used his dexterous dribbling skills, bizarre and unpredictable speed changes and direction changes to shake Fortune, Sylvester and Ferdinand. , kill the restricted area.

Goalkeeper Howard finally chose to attack. Messi paused for a while, dunked to the outside, and hit the goal with his right foot at a small angle.

The ball seemed to have eyes, passed Howard's raised left hand, and got into the net before Gary Neville, who was defending in front of the goal line, got into the net, 1:1!

Everyone at the scene was stunned, even the fans who stood up were stunned, Andy Gray and Martin Taylor who were in charge of the commentary were also stunned, Mourinho and Ferguson were also stunned, everyone was stunned. stunned!

In that instant, time seemed to freeze in that instant!

Messi, a 16-year-old boy, was stabbed and killed when the team he played for was facing a crisis. At that moment, he seemed to possess Maradona's soul and staged a horse on the court again. Radona had several dramas in the past.

The same location, the same legend, the same shocking world!

Fortune, Kleberson, Sylvester, Ferdinand, Howard, Messi almost passed the entire back line of Manchester United, and these famous players in the Premier League were played by him like wooden pillars. .

Everyone at the scene was shocked for more than ten seconds, and then suddenly thunderous applause and cheers broke out like a tsunami. Even the proud Red Devils fans had to be extremely wonderful for Messi at this moment. The performance is subdued.

On the contrary, it was Messi who stood there dumbfounded after scoring the goal, not knowing how to react, until Drogba ran over, picked him up by the waist, hugged him and ran hard all over the field, he didn't know how to react. Suddenly realized that he scored a goal.

After finally breaking free of Drogba, Messi avoided the teammates who were crazy to celebrate, ran all the time, ran to the front of his own stand, suddenly knelt down and slid to the sidelines, facing the fans, holding his hands high, as if is praying.

Tears filled his immature face at some point, and the pain of the past has now been compensated the best, but he would like to thank a person who has always been full of confidence in him, continuous encouragement and support. and the benefactor who helped him.

Xiao Yu suddenly felt a sore nose, surrounded by noisy fans. Those who didn't know must think that Messi was thanking the fans, but in fact, only Xiao Yu knew that Messi was thanking himself.

If it wasn't for Xiao Yu back then, maybe Messi would have stayed in Argentina, and it wouldn't be possible today.

Players rushed over and surrounded Messi!

There was a shout of [Messi Dona] in the stands. Obviously, at this moment, Messi is the Maradona in the eyes of the fans. Even if he is an enemy, Manchester United fans have to pay for this goal of Messi. The ball was astonishing.

A full 60 meters, it took 10 seconds, passed 5 people, of which Fortune was passed by him twice in a row, it should be 6 people, and then scored a crucial goal, Messi in just 10 seconds. Zhongnai dominated a game that Ferguson had orchestrated.

The thrilling 10 seconds just now reverberated in Xiao Yu's mind for a long time. In his impression, this time, after 5 people in a row, Messi's speed was faster than that in the previous life, and he was in the whole process. In the face of Fortune, Kleberson, Sylvester and others under the tight defense.

Speed ​​change, dribbling skills, physical confrontation, etc. are all indispensable. Now Messi is stronger than in his previous life. Although he is not tall, his foot skills are very delicate, and his dribbling in a small range is even more impressive. , coupled with the strange and unpredictable sudden change of speed and direction, this has almost become Messi's biggest killer on the pitch.

The most rare thing is that Messi's touch is very calm, and even Moniz said that he has the temperament of a Terminator.

But most importantly, Messi is only 16 years old and this is just his Premier League debut!

Standing up from the ground, Curtis, who is a good friend of Messi, has already returned the ball for him to shoot the goal, and asked him to take him to the coaching bench. On the way, there are constant discussions with Mourinho, the coach and his teammates. High five to celebrate.

As if to vent his anger, Mourinho deliberately celebrated in front of Ferguson, and even jumped high and stuck his tongue out towards Ferguson to show his counterattack just now.

Ferguson was also shocked by Messi's goal just now. He glanced enviously at Messi who walked back to the stadium, but he snorted coldly at Mourinho's counterattack, turned his face away, and simply ignored him. .

…………………… The game restarted, and the equalizer seemed very excited. Even if the number of players was at a disadvantage, the momentum was fully displayed, especially Messi on the right, who frequently staged forced breakthroughs. Manchester United's entire back line was turned upside down, much to the cheers of the fans in the stands.

Messi played very well after playing, and the pressure on the middle was reduced. Drogba, Kaka, and Beckham and Essien were inserted in the back row. It was given to Evra, and the scene was completely beaten alive.

Manchester United, who had the number of people, was actually given all the momentum on the field and had to retreat to their own side.

But even so, they still failed to hold the last 1 point.

In the 93rd minute, they didn't give up even when the game was about to end, after a long attack for a few minutes. Beckham cleverly distributed the ball to the right flank. Messi used his speed to get rid of Fortune, just before the ball was about to go out to the end. Hang it into the penalty area before the line.

The Manchester United defenders in the penalty area are all judging the route of the ball, but because Messi's lob was made in a hurry, even he himself didn't know where it would go, so he just hurried into the penalty area. , hoping to have the opportunity to score another goal.

The trajectory of this ball was a little erratic, and when it came to the vicinity of the big penalty area, it suddenly fell rapidly.

Kaka, who was inserted in the back row, clearly saw the chaos in the penalty area and the urgency of time. He rushed up, turned around halfway, raised his right foot, and volleyed against the falling ball. [^[Half(.*)／[float*(sheng]~] w.n floats update fast

The ball hit the goal like a cannonball, and Howard was slightly out. Although he jumped high, he still couldn't stop the ball from rubbing the top beam into the net.

The fans at the scene once again burst into a burst of enthusiastic cheers. This shot can definitely be compared with Zidane's flying fairy, but one is on the left and scored with his left foot, and the other is hit with his right foot on the right. Go, but both goals are the same.

After scoring the goal, Kaka rushed over excitedly and hugged Messi tightly. The two danced samba and tango on the sidelines excitedly, beyond description.

Ferguson stared coldly at the excited players on the field. He was unwilling to believe that he lost, but the score on the big red scoreboard did become 1:2 immediately after Kaka scored!

"Fuck, this Portuguese who got shit luck!" Ferguson scolded indignantly.

In the head coach contest, this time he won against Mourinho, but he lost to the talent in the squad!

Two flashes of genius defeated Ferguson's preparations and 80 minutes of hard work by Manchester United players!
