Football: Rejected by the national team, I flew to England

Chapter 0150 With Lin Xu here, Harry Kane may often enter the substitute list in the future!!!

Five minutes ago.

When in the dressing room.

When everyone else walked out of the dressing room and stood in the tunnel of players, waiting to play.

“After arranging the tactics, Southgate specially left Lin Xu and asked him if he would be nervous when he appeared wearing the national team captain’s armband for the first time?”

Let’s be honest.

Lin Xu was a little nervous.

But it’s not about the nervousness of the game.

His nervousness was more of an excited tension.

Although on the last national team matchday, when facing Hungary, Lin Xu made his home debut at Wembley.

But the stadium seems to have something special magic.

Every time he comes to play on this stadium that can carry 90,000 fans, Lin Xu will feel excited from the bottom of his heart.

Stand on the players’ tunnel.

Lin Xu could almost hear his own heartbeat.

As for the captain’s armband.

He is used to wearing the armband of Petersburg captain every time he plays.

In Lin Xu’s opinion.

There is not much difference between the two.

Although it is possible that for the vast majority, or almost 99 percent of players, the national team matches higher than the club games.

The status of national team captain is also higher than everything else.

But Lin Xu wouldn’t think so.

He enjoys football every game, which doesn’t have much to do with whether it’s a national team game or a club game.

Even if Petersburg is just an ordinary small team, when he is there, he will still play the Petersburg game as the most important game.

Because the fans there love him too, he also has a group of club teammates who are very good to him.

Of course, he will take England to play every World Cup game with the goal of winning the title.

But it’s not because he’s captain.

The captain will make him more responsible.

But enjoying every minute on the football pitch and giving his best is what he is playing for.

If he had been after a better team and higher attention, he wouldn’t have stayed at Petersburg for four years.

With the assets of the Lin family, it can completely help him go to a higher level team, even if he can’t get a foothold in the first team, at least the youth training will be better than Petersburg.

But that’s not what he did.

There are less than eight minutes left until the start of the game.

Lin Xu stood at the front of the player tunnel and took a deep breath.

The English teammates behind him thought that Lin Xu was nervous, and they were all comforting him.

Foden and Stones laughed and said in the back, “Take it easy. ”

“Just treat him like a normal game, don’t be too nervous, Lin.”

“yes, it’s okay, there’s us.”

Today’s starting goalkeeper Pickford also patted Lin Xu on the shoulder, signaling him not to make himself too tight because of too much fan attention, which is not conducive to Lin Xu’s performance on the field.

Although they all know that this match is destined to attract the attention of many fans as well as the media.

The first match of the new captain of the national team.

It doesn’t have to be thought that this match is bound to be a big story that will make the headlines of major English newspapers whether you win or lose.

Lin Xu’s performance in this game also determined the headline of the news.

Lin Xu’s becoming the captain of England was actually not questioned.

Despite his youth, his strength and talent are evident.

Every English fan recognizes Southgate for handing over the captain’s armband to such a talented young man, but when Lin Xu wears the captain’s armband, the fans naturally hope that he can perform better, better…

It would be better to be like every captain in England’s past, such as David Beckham, Gerrard, Terry or Wayne Rooney, and like the legendary captains, to be the most consistent part of the team.

They will be more tolerant of Lin Xu because of his English family book, but when Lin Xu is the captain, the fans will demand more from him than before.

Of course, Lin Xu is still young, and the fans in England will give him more time to grow.

It’s just that in the process of his progression, the pressure of captaincy status is essential.

“We’ll work with you, Captain.”

Like Lin Xu, Dortmund midfielder Bellingham, who was born in 2003 and is only 18 years old this year, also spoke up from behind.

Bellingham made his national team debut earlier than Lin Xu.

However, he was not called up to the squad by Southgate during the last national team matchday, and Bellingham and Lin Xu have not known each other for a long time compared to the rest of the team.

But he has also watched Lin Xu’s matches.

The Dort midfielder knows how strong his captain is.

And Lin Xu is also from the Championship team.

It also gives them more in common.

With Lin Xu, the eighteen-year-old captain in the team, Bellingham was much less nervous when he was on the field, and he was still happy to get close to Lin Xu.

Listening to the comfort of his teammates, Lin Xu smiled back.

He certainly wouldn’t say he wasn’t nervous because of the captain’s armband.

Suppress your excitement.

Lin Xu turned his head and closed his eyes shallowly before going on the field.

The noisy sound of the stadium reached his ears.

Lin Xu could hear the fans of the Dragon Kingdom shouting his name loudly and cheering for him.

You can also hear the fans in England singing the song that was given to him.

“The Three Lions logo is printed on the jersey.”

“The Remet Cup is still twinkling.”

“Thirty years of pain.”

“We can’t stop our dreams.”

“Lin Xu.”

“Lin Xu.”

“Our team now has new hope.”

The singing is loud, accompanied by the sound of cheering.

These fans who came to the scene were expressing their support for Lin Xu in their own way.

“It’s time to play.”

The Spanish referee on duty today pinched a little and stepped forward on time.

Took the brightly colored football in white and orange placed on the front platform.

The referees were the first to step onto the pitch.

Lin Xu also opened his eyes abruptly after closing his eyes and taking a few deep breaths to adjust the rhythm.

His black eyes shone.

“Let’s go.”

Holding the flag of the Three Lions Legion, Lin Xu took the lead and walked onto the court.

Courtsidelines.

Southgate’s gaze was equally deep.

Although Southgate looked relaxed when asking Lin Xu, in fact, the young young manager of England was no less nervous than the Albanian players.

What he fears is not winning or losing the game.

He was just afraid that Lin Xu would not be able to withstand such a lot of pressure and so much attention.

If Southgate leads the team with poor results, the big deal is to leave class and change coaches. After leaving the national team, Southgate can also coach other club teams.

But Lin Xu’s eyes were fixed on the young man wearing the captain’s armband on the field.

That’s the most talented player he’s ever seen.

He didn’t want Lin Xu to lose himself because of the pressure given by the outside world, which was why he had been hesitant to give the captain’s armband to Lin Xu before.

“Steve.”

Southgate tilted his head, looked at the assistant coach standing beside him with a calm expression, and confirmed, “We really made the right choice, right?” ”

Steve Holland laughed softly, “Don’t worry, he’ll do well.” ”

Don’t be nervous.

This is what they said to Lin Xu, and it is also Lin Xu’s answer to them.

“Trust him.”

Migu Sports Live Room.

As always, Guan Zeyuan and Zhan Jun partnered to explain the World Preliminary Round.

While complaining that “Colonel Guan has become a professional football commentator”, the fans of the Dragon Kingdom happily clicked on the live broadcast room of the two.

It is still very interesting to take care of Zeyuan’s explanation.

After all, a professional commentator like Zhan Jun still has to consider the objectivity of the commentary game, while Guan Zeyuan does not need it, and fans also like to listen to him blow Lin Xu’s rainbow fart in the live broadcast room.

At this time, there were already more than five million Dragon Kingdom fans watching the game in the live broadcast room.

Guan Zeyuan skillfully opened, “Okay, fans and friends, this is Migu Sports, now underway is the World Cup Qualifier Group I, the ninth round, England vs Albania match scene, the explanation for you is Guan Zeyuan and Zhan Jun…”

“The game has officially begun.”

“Wearing a blue shirt on the screen and attacking from left to right is today’s home team, England. Opposite them, wearing a white shirt and attacking from right to left, is the visiting team, Albania. ”

“As Lin Xu’s first game as the captain of the England national team, this game has also attracted the attention of many fans, and it can be seen in the camera that the 90,000 seats on the scene are almost full, and we in the dragon country also have a lot of puzzles to the scene…”

Guan Zeyuan’s opening became more and more proficient, and Zhan Jun, who was sitting next to him, also took over the topic after the opening, “Let’s first introduce the starting list of the two teams today.” ”

Zhan Jun’s business ability is still very passable, he did not turn over the information, looked at the screen and blurted out, “The home team England, Southgate’s intention to train is obvious, the starting list has changed a lot from the last game, the goalkeeper position is still Pickford, Everton’s main goalkeeper should be England’s starting goalkeeper in next year’s World Cup.” ”

“On the back line, from left to right, are No. 4 Alexander-Arnold, No. 5 Stones, No. 6 Maguire, and No. 2 Kyle Walker.”

“In midfield, Dortmund’s 18-year-old Bellingham appeared in the starting squad today, of course, this is also related to the fact that Rice, Ward Prows and Mount are not in the squad for this issue, Rice and Ward Prows were not called up by Southgate due to injury, Mount is said to have taken a leave of absence for personal reasons, and Bellingham appeared in the starting line-up.”

“But being able to give young players more opportunities to exercise is not necessarily a bad thing. Although Bellingham is only eighteen years old like Lin Xu, the Dort midfielder’s playing style is relatively mature, and he has a mature style of play beyond his own age. ”

“At this point, England are still very lucky, a Lin Xu, a Bellingham, both eighteen, but they are far more mature than their age.”

“Of course, many stars in the English squad can be regarded as young in this new Three Lions, which can be called a youth storm.”

Senior Colonel Guan also laughed when he heard this, “That’s right. ”

“Lin Xu and Bellingham were born in ’03, Foden and Sancho were born in ’00, and the midfield twins of Rice and Mount were born only in ’99. If there are no accidents, these people will appear in England’s squad at next year’s World Cup in Qatar and appear as the main players. Even next year, the oldest of them will be only twenty-three years old. ”

“England’s player reserve is doing quite well.

“Yes.”

Guan Zeyuan answered, “In other national teams, young players like Lin Xu and Bellingham may not have the opportunity to be called up to the team, or they may only be taken to the World Cup as a substitute and will not get any chance to play.” And Lin Xu is already the captain of the national team in England, in fact, Southgate is not as conservative as we think. ”

“Well, being able to appoint an eighteen-year-old as captain requires a certain amount of courage in itself. I think this young marshal in England should be very nervous at the moment, but Lin Xu will definitely perform well, I have never seen him stage fright. ”

“Of course, Lin Xu is a standard Mr. Big Scene.”

After a rainbow fart.

Zhan continued, “The other two midfielders in England are Ben Chilwell at No. 3 and Hendersen at No. 8. Henderson, from Liverpool, was also appointed third captain by Southgate two days ago. ”

“On the front line, Sterling appeared on the right side, Foden appeared on the left, and the one sitting in the middle is today’s protagonist, Lin Xu.”

“Harry Kane was on the bench.”

Guan Zeyuan shrugged his shoulders, “Kane should be familiar with the position of the bench, with Lin Xu here, he may often enter the substitute list in the future.” ”

Zhan Jun snorted, “Yes.” ”

The camera was also given to Harry Kane, who was sitting on the sidelines.

The main striker of Tottenham did not have a dissatisfied expression, but was wrapped in a sportswear and watched the game seriously.

“Here’s a look at the visiting team’s starting line-up.”

Introducing the away team, the two people in the live broadcast room do not have so many words, after all, Albania is not a very strong team, although there are many players in the team who play in the five major leagues, but compared with England, the strength gap is still obvious.

The two of them just went through the big list.

“Albania played in a 352 formation today, with No. 23 Strakoša in the goalkeeper and No. 18 Ismaili at the back, No. 15 Kumbula and No. 5 Viseli. At midfield are No. 4 Hisai, No. 7 Barre, No. 8 Jasula, No. 10 Bajrami and No. 20 Transing. The two arrowhead forwards on the front line are No. 16 Sikalesh and No. 11 Urzoni. ”

When the squads of the two teams were being passed in the live broadcast room, the pace on the court gradually increased…
