Chapter 1 When Chen Hero Banged the Football Into Tottenham Hotspur's Goal

When Chen Hero blasted the football into Tottenham Hotspur's goal, many people were shocked, their eyes wide, their mouths open, unable to close them for a long time.

They weren't surprised that Chen Hero could score against Tottenham. Everyone knew Chen Hero's ability; the whole world knew. They were surprised that Liverpool's reserves could actually break through Tottenham's goal.

Note the difference.

The goal was indeed scored by Chen Hero, no problem there.

It's just that after so many League Cup and FA Cup matches, the media and the vast majority of fans had already counted Chen Hero as a member of the reserves.

Last season, when Liverpool first used this combination to play in the League Cup, the media called this team: "Liverpool Reserves plus Chen Hero." This name was very complicated and lengthy, but the media insisted on it because only such a strange name could reflect the special nature of this Liverpool combination.

A purely reserve lineup with a Chen Hero forcibly stuffed in, it looked awkward no matter how you looked at it.

No wonder the Preston manager specifically criticized Liverpool's approach at the time.

But later, as time passed, as this combination appeared more and more in front of everyone, many people felt that "Liverpool Reserves plus Chen Hero" was a very complicated and troublesome name. At the very least, reporters had to type several more keys when writing稿子.

Moreover, everyone found that the cooperation between Chen Hero and the reserves was becoming more and more tacit. Chen Hero himself referred to the reserves as "we" rather than "them" in interviews. It was obvious that he also regarded himself as a member of the reserves.

So later, the media also changed the name, changing "Liverpool Reserves plus Chen Hero" to "Liverpool Reserves."

Therefore, now that Chen Hero scored against Tottenham, it was equivalent to the Liverpool reserves scoring against Tottenham.

Moreover, the Liverpool reserves players also had a lot of credit for this goal and lead.

First of all, the Liverpool reserves players defended very tenaciously. They were like the most advanced and safest combination lock, firmly locking Liverpool's goal, so that Tottenham Hotspur, who claimed to be the main team of the Premier League, besieged them for thirty-five minutes without being able to score.

If they had conceded a goal early on, even if Chen Hero was more powerful, the current goal would only have helped Liverpool equalize the score at best, and definitely not take the lead.

Defense is the foundation of football, the foundation of everything, the foundation of foundations. Without a good defense, even the best offense has no room to play, because your goal has been riddled with holes by the opponent, so how can you have the strength and ability to attack?

Therefore, Liverpool can take the lead, Chen Hero who scored the goal should be credited first, and the Liverpool reserves' defense should also be credited with the same important merit.

Secondly, in terms of offense, although the Liverpool reserves were limited by strength and tactical arrangements, the troops that could be invested in the attack were limited, but the only two players in this counterattack played a very important role, especially the decisive insertion at the last moment, which created a shooting opportunity for Chen Hero. If Chen Hero is the main hero of the goal, they are the second-ranked heroes. The specific description of their contribution can be said like this: "Appeared in a key position at a critical moment, made a key containment action, and ultimately helped Chen Hero score this crucial goal."

So it is completely reasonable for the Liverpool reserves to score against Tottenham.

It is precisely because of this clear understanding that the media and many other fans were so surprised - the Liverpool reserves, who were considered to be a weak team before the game, could actually lead Tottenham Hotspur, who had sent out all their main players?

Tottenham Hotspur's results in the league are not satisfactory, but no matter what, they are also a team that was once able to enter the Champions League knockout stage in succession. This team still has strength. Facing the Liverpool reserves, they should still be able to win easily.

Who would have thought that in the end, they would be led by the Liverpool reserves...

"Ahhhhh! Liverpool is actually leading Tottenham!"

If people who don't know the inside story hear the roar of this commentator, they might be very surprised - why can't Liverpool lead Tottenham?

"Hero! Beautiful long shot! Gomez was completely defeated by him!"

"Compared to Hero's goal, I would like to tell you more about this Liverpool team - they are composed of Liverpool reserve players. Except for Chen Hero, none of them are in the first team. Such a team was thought to be sure to lose to Tottenham before the game... But now they have taken the lead! And this lead is not a fluke. After watching these thirty-plus minutes of the game, each of us can see that the Liverpool reserves have performed very tenaciously and very well! They really have a chance to defeat this Tottenham Hotspur!"

The commentators were very excited and surprised.

The people in the stands were even more so.

To be honest, when the media announced Martin O'Neill's squad list for this game, when Liverpool fans found out that it was still the group of reserve players plus a Chen Hero, they were really disappointed. They couldn't understand why Martin O'Neill would make such a decision. Under the noise and agitation of those media, they were worried about Liverpool's prospects, and even felt that Liverpool was destined to not get past the semi-finals.

They came here only because the Liverpool reserves are also Liverpool, representing Liverpool. Since they want to support Liverpool, it is impossible for them to only support the Liverpool first team. They support everything about the Liverpool club, even the women's football team.

They come to support Liverpool, and thinking that Liverpool can win are two different concepts.

Their support for Liverpool is like the team song sings, "You'll Never Walk Alone." Yes, whether it's failure or victory, Liverpool will never walk alone.

But they still hope that Liverpool will win in their hearts...

Now seeing that Liverpool is actually leading, the excitement in their hearts goes without saying... The stands are full of their voices!

The voices of the Red Giants are the loudest. They are different from other Liverpool fans. They have been particularly confident in Liverpool from the beginning, and think that Liverpool will definitely be able to defeat Tottenham in the semi-finals. But they don't trust the reserves, they are fanatically trusting Chen Hero.

In the words of Chinese domestic fans, these people are Chen Hero's "brain-dead fans." They trust Chen Hero without needing a reason or cause, and without any preconditions. They just trust him, believe in him, and think that he will definitely be able to lead the Liverpool reserves, who are not favored by everyone, into the finals, and finally lift the trophy!

The cheers and roars of the Liverpool fans intertwined in the sky above Wembley Stadium.

On the other side, the Tottenham Hotspur fans were all silent, holding their heads in their hands, still not daring to believe what they were seeing.

Like the Liverpool fans, they also knew before the game that Liverpool would send reserves to participate in the game. Before the game, they were still laughing at Liverpool, laughing at Martin O'Neill, and thinking that he had shit in his head to make such a decision. They felt that Tottenham was more likely to enter the finals.

Who would have thought... Who would have thought!

The world is unpredictable, this Liverpool reserves is actually so tenacious!

They really held on to Tottenham's offensive, and then waited for the moment when Chen Hero scored!

※※※

Chen Hero was very excited after scoring the goal. He rushed to the bottom of the stands and kicked the advertising board hard!

Then he looked up to the sky and roared, venting the breath that had been pent up in his heart!

In fact, after making the decision to appear at Wembley Stadium with his reserve teammates, pressure had been with him all the time, and it was getting bigger and bigger as the match day approached.

Even the pressure before he first participated in the Champions League final could not compare to it.

He was really asking for trouble, insisting on acting like a big brother, looking for trouble for himself.

But he gritted his teeth and carried it through, training desperately in the dungeon. On the one hand, it was to improve his tacit understanding with the reserves, and on the other hand, wasn't it also to use heavy training to eliminate the pressure that was gradually accumulating in his heart?

He knew he was gambling, and it was a very dangerous gamble, just like being blindfolded and having his hands tied to maintain balance, and then being asked to walk a tightrope above a hundred meters.

He could actually admit defeat, shouting: "I'm scared! Mom, let me down! Mom, come and save me!"

Then he could get out of this dangerous situation, and he would lose nothing except for a little shame.

But this does not conform to Chen Hero's aesthetic of being a person. He is the kind of person who will go on even if he knows that there is a dead end in front of him, and then hits a south wall... Still does not turn back, keeps hitting, hitting and hitting, and finally either kills himself under the south wall, or breaks through the south wall and breaks out a new path.

Lu Xun said that there was no road in the world, and it became a road when more people walked it.

But Chen Hero is that there is no road in the world, so I will open up a road!

Even if he knows that doing so is very dangerous and the risk is very high, and he is likely to become a laughing stock, he still persists, and keeps hitting the wall under pressure.

Now... That south wall was finally smashed to pieces by him! Collapsing in front of him!

And behind the wall, although it is full of thorns, there is obviously a road. This road is not easy to walk. But he is not afraid. If it is just thorns, he will not even look at them. If there are more south walls, then continue to smash them open!

Chen Hero roared, really like a terrifying giant bear!

He is now sure that he can stand on the FA Cup podium with his reserve teammates!

※※※

Chen Hero, who was roaring to the sky, was hugged by his teammates and submerged.

The Liverpool reserve players, no matter what position they were in, even goalkeeper Brad Jones rushed up, sprinting almost the entire stadium with open arms, and then pounced into the enthusiastic crowd.

Everyone was shouting madly, and slapping their teammates next to them hard.

At this moment, they were extremely proud to be a member of the Liverpool reserves.

Who said we are weak teams at the mercy of others?

We are the knife, and Tottenham, you are the weak teams! Your whole family are weak teams!
