The God of Football Starts With Passive Skills
Chapter 709 131: Advancement! King of the Gunners! A Hero Creates the Times! European Best Player! The Bloody Massacre at Old Trafford
But he reached out and tightened the captain's armband on his left arm, his eyes projecting a gaze firmer than ever before! The surrounding teammates all gathered around him, concerned about his injury. The bloody scratch on his left leg was sustained while stopping Rooney's shooting, but it wasn't serious.
"We are not here to be humiliated!" Wang Shuo said in a deep voice as his teammates gathered around.
Everyone was taken aback.
"Listen to the cheers of the Manchester United fans in the stadium. They have already started celebrating.
"Look at that scoreline. Is this what we want?
"I swear, if this match ends with this scoreline, then tomorrow, I, you, and Arsenal will completely become the laughingstock of the entire world!
"We will have absolutely no chance to compete for the championship and glory!"
Wang Shuo swept his firm gaze over every teammate.
"I don't know what you are thinking. Maybe you are scared or terrified. Maybe you have gotten used to it. Maybe you are telling yourselves that it is happening again and that Arsenal is always this weak...
"But I can tell you right now, this is not what I am thinking!
"Right now, I only want to do one thing!
"I want to tell our opponents, all of our opponents, that we are not cowards! We are not softies!
"Any team that wants to take three points from us must be prepared to pay a heavy price!
"Today, at Old Trafford Stadium, let alone having ten men left, even if all of you cower and retreat, even if I am the only one left in the end, I will fight Manchester United to the bitter end!"
Having said that, Wang Shuo turned and ran. Behind him, the Arsenal players all hung their heads low.
"Brother, I'm with you!" Subotic let out a forceful roar and shouted loudly at Wang Shuo's back.
"Count me in too!" De Bruyne also shouted, chasing after Wang Shuo.
"Me too!" Hazard hesitated for a moment, but seeing De Bruyne give chase, he also ran forward.
"And me!" Matuidi ran as well.
Next were Lichsteiner, Aaron Ramsey, Walcott, Koscielny... Finally, all the Gunners chased after Wang Shuo.
If anyone were to see the Arsenal players' eyes at this moment, they would be surprised to find that their gazes had turned incredibly sharp. They were like sharp bayonets, wishing they could plunge straight into the heart of Manchester United.
On the sidelines, Wenger could feel this change in the team more than anyone else. The Arsenal manager's tightly clenched fists bulged with veins. He stood on the sidelines, saying nothing, yet conveying everything. He chose to stand with his players and fight alongside them!
On the pitch, Arsenal, down a man, remained quite passive. But the Gunners players, who had previously looked exhausted, all started running. They began to actively throw themselves into pressing and defending once again. On the sidelines, Ferguson immediately smelled a hint of danger. He couldn't let Arsenal regroup under any circumstances.
The Manchester United manager immediately called over veteran Giggs from the bench. This veteran, who had suffered from public controversy this summer, remained the player Ferguson trusted the most.
"The Gunners are trying to mount a comeback. Hit them hard! Crush this momentum of theirs and completely snap their spine!
"I want to see them leave Old Trafford like stray dogs!"
Giggs agreed. Soon, he came on to replace Anderson. This was a very obvious signal to strengthen the attack and bolster the midfield organization.
The Manchester United fans in the stands at Old Trafford Stadium also noticed the change in the match's atmosphere. The relaxed expressions that had previously hung on the Manchester United players' faces vanished. Meanwhile, the Arsenal players were risking their lives. Under Wang Shuo's leadership, everyone was playing out of their skins!
"That kid Wang Shuo has gone mad!"
But in the seventy-eighth minute, Matuidi executed a precise sliding tackle in the midfield, sending the ball flying from Park Jisung's feet. Aaron Ramsey passed to De Bruyne.
The Belgium midfielder trapped the ball and took a step forward. It looked like he was going to pass to Hazard, who was asking for the ball on the front left, but in reality, he launched an overhead diagonal pass. The football arched diagonally from the left edge of Manchester United's thirty-meter zone right into the right side of the penalty area behind their defensive line. And just as everyone felt bewildered, wondering who this pass was meant for, they saw a figure swift as lightning fiercely chasing after it from behind.
Wang Shuo cared about nothing else at this point; he just kept his head down and charged forward relentlessly. He surged past Cleverly, blew past Evans, and broke into Manchester United's penalty area, catching up to De Bruyne's pass on the right side of the penalty spot.
De Gea didn't dare to rush out.
Meeting the descending football, Wang Shuo planted his left foot firmly, pulled back his right, and unleashed a thunderous volley. Under the dumbfounded gaze of all the Manchester United fans in the stadium, the football blasted into Manchester United's goal like a cannonball.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!
"It's in!!!
"In the seventy-eighth minute, Wang Shuo scored a magnificent volley!
"Two to five!"
The instant the goal was scored, Old Trafford Stadium was so quiet that only the muffled thud of Wang Shuo's volley could be heard, along with the rustle of the football hitting the net. But the moment Weber blew his crisp whistle, Wang Shuo had already charged into Manchester United's goal, scooped up the football, and turned to sprint back toward the center circle.
The match wasn't over yet!
