    If a person is unlucky, his teeth will become clogged even if he drinks cold water.

    If Dyer knew this Chinese proverb, he would definitely think that it spoke to his heart.

    After the start of the second half, Newcastle's offense became more intense, and his performance was much better than in the first half.

    There were two breakthroughs on the right, one creating a corner kick and one creating a free kick. At the same time, in a cross-change, Dyer also used a beautiful long shot in the center to allow the opponent goalkeeper Sorensen to make an equally wonderful move.  save.

    Dyer was very satisfied with his performance in these ten minutes. He felt that he had returned to the state when he played as the main force.

    Just when he was about to continue his outstanding performance, something unfortunate happened. With no one guarding him, he sprained his foot during a breakthrough and was carried off.

    When he saw the team doctor making a substitution signal to the sidelines, he knew that his game was over.

    Failed to reverse the situation and failed to help the team more. As soon as his performance improved, he was injured.

    I missed this opportunity, and there may not be another opportunity.

    Mourinho came over and sighed, comforted Dyer a few words, and then his eyes fell on Lennon.

    "Aaron, go warm up."

    Lennon saw Dyer's injury. While he was worried about his teammates, he also had a vague expectation in his heart - now among the five substitutes, only himself and Stewart are wide players, and Stewart plays on the left wing.  Franck Ribery is not good at playing on the right side either. Does he have a chance to play?

    Mourinho¡¯s call was no different from an angel¡¯s call to him.  The young English boy jumped up excitedly, pulled open his coat and was about to run to warm up.

    "Hey. Little Allen, you haven't changed your shoes yet!"

    Stewart shouted behind him, Lennon's face turned red, he changed his shoes as quickly as possible, and then ran quickly to warm up.

    "Ah, Aaron Lennon is warming up! Is Mourinho going to send him out?" Lineker said with a little excitement - the English are a little arrogant, they would rather see England  Local players appear in the Premier League.  So when Chelsea and Arsenal used to field squads made up entirely of non-Englishmen.  It has received quite a lot of criticism.

    "It was not the first time that Lennon, who was born on April 16, 1987, appeared in the Premier League. In August 2003, Lennon, who was still in Leeds at the time, appeared in the Premier League match against Tottenham. He was only sixteen years old at the time.  One hundred and twenty-nine days old, breaking the record of the youngest player to appear held by Rooney and Milner. After Leeds was relegated, he moved to Newcastle. Today is his first appearance in Newcastle Let's do it  Let's see what he will do in a year and a half." After getting the referee's permission, Lennon trotted onto the pitch.

    One year later.  I finally had the opportunity to play in the Premier League again, but the stadium at Ireland Road in Leeds was changed to St James' Park in Newcastle.

    Originally, I was unwilling to leave Leeds. My whole family are Leeds fans and are extremely loyal to the team.

    Unfortunately, after being relegated, Leeds needs money to pay off huge debts. The only way is to sell the players in the team, including himself, the record holder of the "youngest player to appear in the Premier League".

    "Two million pounds can only be a drop in the bucket for Leeds' debt of nearly 100 million pounds, but it can allow Leeds to continue to survive, so he came to St. James Park from Elland Road.

    Apart from not being the place where I was born, there is no difference between Newcastle and Leeds¡ª¡ªperhaps the only difference is that I was able to stay in the first team all the time in Leeds. Although I didn't play much playing time, I could only play in the reserve team after arriving in Newcastle.  There is nothing we can do about staying here. Leeds, which is already in decline, naturally cannot be compared with Newcastle. Newcastle has the ambitions of Leeds' "Young Guards" era, but it does not lack the funds that Leeds lacks most. They have good players in the first team.  Ruyun, not to mention himself as the "youngest player in the Premier League", even Dyer, an England international, can only serve as the main substitute.

    Now, his chance to play has come. Nie Fei is resting and Dyer is injured. He was originally Newcastle's third choice at the right midfield position, and finally got the chance to play - he must take advantage of it. After all, he is not playing football for  Leeds, but for his own dream.

    "Maicon's pass Lennon received the ball. This was his first touch after coming on the field! He broke through! The young Lennon showed no signs of stage fright, and he beautifully shook off Aston Villa.  Full back Samour!¡±

    Lennon dribbled the ball along the wing. Just nowSamuel came up to defend him, perhaps because he looked down upon the young man. He rushed over hastily, but Lennon caught the gap behind him and used a beautiful pass to deflect away.  The opponent!

    Lennon dribbled the ball to the bottom line in one breath. His excellent speed allowed him to have time to observe the situation in the penalty area. When he saw that the two forwards in the penalty area were being marked by the opponent's defenders, he did not pass the ball directly.  Passed into the penalty area, but passed the ball to the front of the penalty area!

    Ribery quickly stepped in from the back row and shot directly without stopping the ball!

    The ball flew over the dense crowd in the penalty area, grazed the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line!

    "Beautiful coordination! Although there was no goal, Newcastle's attack completely deceived the opponent's defense! Lennon took the most credit. The breakthrough in front was beautiful, and the pass from behind was even more beautiful! He did not pass the ball to  In the overcrowded penalty area, it was passed to the front of the weakly defended penalty area!" Even Lawrenson, who has always been "venomous", couldn't help shouting: "Alan Lennon showed his calm observation ability!  Mature beyond his years!¡±

    "For a player who has played in the Premier League at the age of more than 16, playing in the Premier League at the age of nearly 18 is mature enough!" Lineker said with a smile.

    Ribery shook his head regretfully, then gave Lennon a thumbs up and praised him for his beautiful pass this time.

    Lennon grinned and ran back.

    "What a pity!" Pei Wei sighed and said to Mourinho while clapping his hands: "It would be so beautiful if this goal was scored! This young man has outstanding potential!"

    Mourinho nodded and agreed with him: "It doesn't matter, our offense started to come alive This little guy brought us something different."

    As Mourinho said, Lennon's appearance brought vitality to Newcastle's offense.

    There is no problem with his physical fitness. Aston Villa started to pay attention to him after suffering some losses because of not paying attention to him at the beginning, and then relaxed their defense in other places. Five minutes later, Ribery  An attack was organized in the middle, and after getting rid of the opponent's midfielder, he passed the ball into the penalty area. Drogba used his body to hold Laursen, and then suddenly half-turned and fired!

    The ball flew into the goal from Sorensen¡¯s armpit. Sorensen, who had performed well in the previous game, had nothing to do about this sudden shot from close range.

    Newcastle fans gave a huge cheer. They finally waited until the team they supported scored a goal, and everyone firmly believed that after scoring this goal, Newcastle would definitely take the lead!

    But Aston Villa seemed to be here to disrupt the situation today. Just two minutes later, England edge international Vassell broke away from Maicon and broke into the penalty area. Kufuor fouled while defending. The referee awarded a penalty kick. The Villa captain  Barry takes the lead again with a penalty kick!

    Mourinho shook his head slightly. After Lennon came on, he certainly brought vitality to Newcastle's offense, but there were advantages and disadvantages. His thin body was not suitable for defense, and Maicon was not very good at defense.  , and without Makelele, who is good at filling in, the weakening of Newcastle's defense is naturally understandable.

    However, how could Newcastle, which had already found its offensive rhythm, let Aston Villa take away three points like this?

    Villa's defense seemed much more difficult than before. After Ribery broke through and got a free kick, Dawson, who came forward with an assist, smashed Ribery's free kick into the goal at the front point.  Second, Newcastle tied the score again!

    After tying the score again, Newcastle never gave their opponents any chance to counterattack, using powerful offense to suppress their opponents within half-court.

    Seeing that the game had reached the 80th minute, Mourinho could not sit still. He replaced full-back Bernard with Larsson and changed to three forwards to continue to strengthen the attack.

    Lennon once again took the ball on the wing. During this period, his performance was not as amazing as when he first came on the field. When the opponent shrank their defense, the speed he was good at did not have much effect.

    After seeing Maicon step forward to assist, he immediately passed the ball back and then accelerated towards the bottom line.

    Maicon did not stop the ball, but directly passed the ball five meters in front of him. Lennon took advantage of his speed, dashed away from Samuel's defense, caught up with the ball and started directly.  Foot cross!

    A beautiful arc, the ball flew straight to the back point.

    Drogba in the middle took a feint shot, and Shearer stepped in from behind and flicked the header!

    "Goal¡ª¡ªAlan¡ª¡ªShearer! Three to two! Newcastle completed the reversal beautifully! This goal was scoredThanks to Lennon, it was his assist from the wing that helped Shearer score the go-ahead goal!  Lennon's Newcastle debut was flawless!  "
