Hero of the Penalty Area

Aston Villa really has no confidence in front of the Liverpool reserve team. This situation is not strange to everyone this season. If it were placed two seasons ago, some people would think it was funny.

Now with the performance of the Liverpool reserve team, most people have recognized their abilities.

This is a team that can be successfully relegated even in the Premier League.

After the start of the game, Aston Villa performed fairly well, and did not attack as soon as he came up, or simply raised his hand to surrender.

Although they lack confidence, they still take this game seriously. It's just that how long they can hold on like this has something to do with their confidence.

In the face of the well-performed Aston Villa, the Liverpool reserve team was not impatient. They did not seem to be a reserve team at all, but a first team.

Since Aston Villa didn't press it up and bombarded it, they didn't press it either. The two teams were in a stalemate on the court.

"This reserve team is really impressive! Who could have imagined that they were still a bunch of young hairy boys less than a season ago? Now, they look like veterans who have experienced battles!"

The TV station's commentator introduced the information of both sides of the contest to everyone.

The game was broadcast live across the country. In addition, many overseas TV stations purchased the live broadcast signal of the game.

It's just a FA Cup semi-final, but it enjoys the treatment of the final.

All this is due to the Liverpool reserve team.

The Football Association of England should really thank Chen Yingxiong.

With the strength of the Premier League, the FA Cup has become more and more tasteless. This can be seen from the fact that Liverpool originally planned to participate in the entire reserve team. Many giants are not very fancy about this championship. This is true even for a team that has not had a championship for many years like Liverpool, not to mention a super giant like Manchester United.

The Football Association of England is also very upset about this.

The Premier League belongs to the Premier League, and the benefits have little to do with the FA. The Premier League only pays a portion of the money to the FA every year. But this amount of money is like nothing compared to what the Premier League gets.

The broadcast fee for the Premier League is now as high as £2.2 billion for three years. It is already the most expensive broadcast contract in world football. The broadcast fee of La Liga, which has always been unconvinced that the Premier League is the largest league in Europe, is only 600 million pounds. The gap between the two sides is huge. Not to mention that Serie A has fallen, and Ligue 1 and Bundesliga are still far behind.

So much money belongs to the Premier League, and the Football Association of England looks really enthusiastic.

So they are desperately operating the Premier League. Integrate low-level events and promote the League Cup...

The FA Cup is the oldest modern football game in the world. Naturally, it is the top card of the FA. In England, the FA Cup has always enjoyed a high reputation. Second only to the Premier League.

Only now. Although they are still second, the gap between them and the first Premier League is getting bigger...

At this time, Chen Yingxiong took the Liverpool reserve team to the FA Cup and League Cup.

Then everything changed.

In the beginning, even the FA and the people thought that Chen Yingxiong was a lunatic, an idiot, and felt that Liverpool's approach was a naked insult to the FA Cup and the League Cup-other giants. Even if you want to give up these two competitions, you have to cover it up anyway. Half of the reserve team players, half of the first team substitute players, everyone is justified in face. On the surface, at least the dignity of the FA Cup and the League Cup is maintained.

But Martin O’Neal’s approach was completely slapped in the face of the FA, telling the FA straightforwardly, "I just want to give up these two tasteless games, what's the matter?"

So at that time, they especially hoped that the Liverpool reserve team would miss the game at the beginning, so that other teams who plan to follow suit can see-this is how they disrespect the FA Cup and the League Cup!

It's just that when the Liverpool reserve team won one after another under the leadership of Chen Yingxiong, everyone also saw the change.

The media became interested in the League Cup and the FA Cup. Because this is really a gimmicky thing.

Under the leadership of a star player, a reserve team that is not worthy of anyone can defeat so many opponents and reach the League Cup semi-finals all the way, only one step away from Wembley Stadium... This story is true. It's so inspirational and amazing!

Their hard work has made more readers and fans interested in the League Cup and the FA Cup.

Everyone wants to see how far this Liverpool reserve team can go.

Similarly, everyone's attention to the Liverpool reserve team has spread to the entire Cup. Attendance rates for each game have increased slightly, and the audience ratings for Liverpool games have surged.

All of these have brought real benefits to the FA-the ratings surge, advertisers benefit, TV stations’ advertising revenues increase, and TV broadcast fees are naturally expected to increase. This gives the FA and those TV stations a better confidence when negotiating broadcast fees for the next season.

So from the very beginning, they hoped that the Liverpool reserve team would lose. It became a sincere hope that the Liverpool reserve team would go far enough in both cups and it would be better to reach the finals all the way, so as not to waste the ratings of every game rate.

But Liverpool's change of first team in the League Cup semi-finals and finals made many people disgusting-what's the point of this? The first team plays in the League Cup, anyone can do it. With your Liverpool strength, even if you win Manchester City in the end, there is nothing to be proud of. Everyone knows that you are the victims of Manchester City.

Martin O'Neal's decision has greatly reduced the media and fans' interest in the League Cup, and it has also spread to the FA Cup.

At that time, the Football Association of England was extremely disappointed and restless.

Fortunately, in the FA Cup soon, everyone saw the Liverpool reserve team all the way to the final, and Chen Yingxiong made a bold statement to use the reserve team to win the championship...

At this time, the enthusiasm of the masses was completely ignited.

Although the media still set up arches to accuse Chen Yingxiong of being defiant and whimsical. But deep down in their hearts, they all hope that Chen Yingxiong will continue to implement this idea.

Because this is so suitable for their hype!

Everyone has seen the final result.

In this season, Liverpool still insisted on using the reserve team plus a Chen Yingxiong to play the domestic cup. The media, fans, and the Football Association of England, as well as the sponsors who have paid a lot of money to sponsor these two events, all smiled.

With the help of the English Football Association, the "Liverpool Reserve Legends" that took place in the English FA Cup and League Cup have been promoted all over the world. Everyone on the earth knows what Liverpool is doing. They have never heard of this before. Chen Yingxiong is whimsical and bold enough to make people stunned.

But because of its rarity, everyone is interested.

In today's world, the rarer things are, the more valuable they are for hype.

In this way, a semi-final of the FA Cup attracted a multi-national television broadcast.

Dozens of media from all over the world came to report on the scene.

Among them, the Chinese media are the most enthusiastic.

China's local TV station alliance has purchased the broadcast rights for the League Cup and the FA Cup this season, and they have planned to continue to purchase the broadcast rights for the League Cup and the FA Cup for the next three seasons.

The huge popularity of Chen Yingxiong in China has made Chinese fans not even let go of games such as the FA Cup and the League Cup. Few Chinese fans were interested in games like the League Cup and the FA Cup...

This is the contribution of Chen Yingxiong.

With the attention of the media all over the world, this game is really not exciting, and it definitely cannot be used as a model for the FA Cup to promote the FA Cup.

But it doesn't matter, there is no shortage of classic games in this season. Especially the two matches between the Liverpool reserve team and Arsenal, one in the FA Cup and one in the League Cup. These two games are connected together, which makes people very addicted. This is the duel between the masters.

The Liverpool reserve team has long proven their ability, and the FA Cup has also proven their glorious tradition-this is a hotbed of unpopularity.

Wasn't the Liverpool reserve team an upset in the beginning?

※※※

Aston Villa's resistance lasted for thirty minutes, and finally couldn't resist it.

After all, the confidence is not enough to allow them to hold on for longer.

Because of the lack of confidence, every minute of persistence is a torment for the Aston Villa players.

They didn't see any hope of winning this game.

In the absence of hope, they can still hold on for 30 minutes, which can already prove their bravery and professionalism.

But the power gap does exist after all.

This huge gap will not be fundamentally changed because of your bravery and career.

In the 30th minute, the heroic but poor Aston Villa lost their first goal of the game.

It was not Chen Yingxiong who scored the goal, but Carlton Cole, who emerged from the reserve team through the League Cup this season. He has been drafted into the first team many times this season to train with the team, and he has also entered the big list several times. But so far, he hasn't got a chance to play in the first team.

But I believe this day will not be too far away. After winning the league title in advance, players like Carlton Cole with outstanding strength and hard training will definitely get the opportunity to represent the first team in the Premier League in the remaining four rounds of the league.

This is also a reward for his hard work in a season.

Seeing Cole running on the court after he scored the goal, the wind blew his jersey and his hair, and his young and immature face had a bright smile.

The commentator sighed: “Liverpool’s youth academy finally reappeared a promising young man after a long time. In fact, he is not the first, but thanks to Chen’s heroes and the reserve team, Cole experienced in the reserve team With the experience of blood and fire, and his rapid growth, he has met the requirements of the first team. Now, I think the legend of the Liverpool reserve team will become real as more and more players like Cole emerge in the future... legend!"
