Chapter 1150 From Blackpool by the Sea
Chapter 1150 From Blackpool by the Sea
The quarter-finals of the English League Cup are just around the corner.
The result of the draw showed that Arsenal's opponent was a team called Blackpool.
This is a team with a long history, founded in a seaside city in northwest England.
He has been in England's low-level leagues all year round, and his craziest season just happened in the 2016/2017 season. In the League Two promotion play-offs, he defeated Exeter City 2:1, and staged a performance that only he was lucky enough to meet in the NBA. 'Black Seven Miracles'.
It is also based on the fact that this game has greatly increased Blackpool's morale. In the performance of the two seasons, he has shown an aggressive posture and wants to hit the British Championship.
They have passed all the way in the League Cup. After defeating the Championship team Queens Park Rangers 2:0 in the last round, they advanced to the quarter-finals of the League Cup.
But different from the previous game, this time they encountered a game that was even more convinced, and even impossible to win.
Arsenal!
Now the entire European team exists like a nightmare.
A League One team encounters the biggest favorite to win the Champions League and is also currently undefeated in major competitions. Arsenal, the result seems to be obvious.
However, unlike the fear of other teams, Blackpool's enthusiasm is instantly elevated.
'We met Arsenal!We're going to play football at the Emirates Stadium! '
This sentence has become the most common sentence spoken by Blackpool fans.
As a low-level team, it is extremely difficult for them to meet a Premier League team.
Whether it is the FA Cup or the League Cup, they have to go through all kinds of difficulties to meet these Premier League teams, let alone the giants.
Based on the strength of the team itself, the FA Cup and the English League Cup give these strong teams a very large discount in setting.
For example, these Premier League teams don't even have to play the first few rounds, and start directly from a specific round.
And this is also to adjust the quality of the game, avoiding the situation similar to the German Cup, where the Bundesliga team encounters a corner and a funny team, and is finally poured into double-digit goals.
It can be said that for these low-level teams in England, it was extremely difficult for them to meet these giants, and this is just the beginning of these giants.
Even with such a huge gap, these low-level teams are still extremely yearning.
Especially teams like Blackpool who are ambitious and want to climb up. They want to compete with these top teams and verify their strength and gap during the game.
If they are lucky enough to break through Arsenal's goal, it is also enough bragging capital for these players.
It can be said that playing this game will not do them any harm.
What's more, for Blackpool, being able to reach the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup is definitely a historic moment.
Their best previous record was in 1953, when they won an FA Cup.
Of course, this is the only championship they can win.
And this kind of champion, Arsenal's honor room, let alone how many there are.
In Blackpool, the wet and salty sea breeze blows, taking away the dust in the air.
At a construction site, a dark-skinned teenager with a cropped cut excitedly grabbed a worker's arm and said, "Hey! Father, we're going to play against Arsenal soon, that's Arsenal! Giants Arsenal! Where there are superstars like Kai, Aubameyang and Giroud, and we are going to play with them, hahaha!"
The father was wearing a construction cap and a jumpsuit, with a look of exhaustion on his face, and said, "My child, congratulations, I sincerely wish you an excellent performance."
The young man nodded fiercely, clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, I will show my performance in the game, impress Mourinho, join the giants, and then liberate you from this ghostly place."
There was a hint of relief in his father's eyes, and he said with a smile; "Of course, I believe in you, but you are the genius Thompson of Hawke Town!"
The boy's name is Jordan Thompson, and he comes from a small town in Northern Ireland.
He is a well-known talent in the local area. After the successful trial training, he joined Blackpool to play and is now the main force of the iron fight.
Thompson looked at his father and said, "I'm going to London soon, will you watch my game?"
"Of course!" Dad laughed, "I won't miss any of your games."
"Look at it!"
Thompson clenched his fist again, then turned and left.
Looking at Thompson's back, his father finally exhaled slowly, a little helplessness could be heard in his voice.
In the view of this weather-beaten father, in the process of growing up, he will inevitably suffer various blows and setbacks, and this time may be the first setback that Thompson faces that may affect his life.
For Thompson, who was born in a small place, played in the lower leagues, and has always been called a genius, he has always lived under the admiration of others.
But in this world, there is not only one genius.
The ambitious Thompson followed the team to their upcoming arena, and under the spotlight and the attention of the media, he played this match against giants.
But only 30 minutes into the game, Thompson began to doubt his life.
Under the glare of the sun, the huge 3:0 score was written on the scoreboard.
Yes!
In 30 minutes, they conceded three goals.
During the whole process, they could only be beaten passively. The self-proclaimed genius Thompson touched the ball very rarely in the audience, and the ball was broken before he even got enough sense of the ball.
But the most important thing is not these.
It was the two teenagers from Arsenal.
A black teenager, a white teenager.
The two teenagers were about his age, but they wore the jerseys of the giants Arsenal and started the game in the Carabao Cup.
You must know that Thompson, who is called a genius by the people around him, is still playing in the third level of the British League One.
And the teenager who may be younger than him has already signed a contract with Arsenal, and surrounded by a group of star teammates, he has launched a gorgeous performance.
Yes!
Just gorgeous!
In Thompson's view, each of Erdegaard and Saka's extraordinary skills is so wonderful.
Perhaps such a player can be regarded as a real genius!
At this moment, all of Thompson's aura was stripped away.
Where is my genius.
No shit!
This stage was not built for him at all, but for those two dazzling talents.
"Oh~~~~~! God! Young shooter! I haven't been this excited for a long time! Odegaard and Saka, they scored a goal each, there is nothing better than this!"
"Yes, we would like to see more young Gunners come to the Emirates Stadium and become a new force."
"The last time I was so excited was in the 2012-2013 Arsenal revenge against Manchester United. In that game, we met Kay! And this game is only less exciting than that one That's just a billion points!"
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
The entire Emirates Stadium burst into laughter.
They were very satisfied with George Adams' humorous commentary.
Of course, with the background of the game and the performance of the two young players, they can watch the game more comfortably.
In this game, Arsenal almost played from the bench.
In terms of main players, except for Lucky, Kanter, Giroud and goalkeeper Martinez, the rest are all substitutes.
But even so, Arsenal still scored three goals in 30 minutes, which shows the gap in their strength.
Three goals were scored in the first half, and the suspense of the game was almost gone.
After all, Arsenal.
It is almost unthinkable for Blackpool to come back from a backward state.
Mourinho off the court is also very satisfied with the performance of Saka and Erdegaard in this game.
However, Blackpool failed to bring too much oppression to Arsenal. For this reason, Odegaard's holding the ball is also very comfortable. It is a pity that it has not been able to form a workout.
It seems that you still need to walk up to get enough exercise.
At this stage, the opponent is still too weak.
As for the problem of losing, Mourinho never thought about it at all.
Even if it is really behind, it is a big deal to play some main players. Except in the case of facing individual teams in the Premier League, Arsenal's substitute players are enough to cope with the situation.
