Luke Young, 28, was once hailed as Gary Neville, England's best right-back.
He debuted in Tottenham, but he still failed to gain trust, so he moved to Charlton in the summer of 2001 and began to play the main role. He was 22 years old that year.
England ’s right-back has always been the pocket of Manchester United players such as Gary Neville and O’Shea. It ’s difficult for other England right-backs to get a chance. But in 2005, Gary Neville ’s thirty , Luke Young finally got the chance, and quickly established a foothold in the national team.
That year, he was twenty-six years old.
Younger, more hard-working, more resilient, and excellent defensive ability, these are the advantages of Luke Young, and quickly reused by Eriksson, quickly became the main force of the national team, looking forward to zero six World Cup in Germany.
But in a league game in April 2006, his knee was badly hit and completely bid farewell to the national team and the World Cup.
It took him a whole summer to recover himself, but since then, his game state has suddenly disappeared. In the following season, he did not show his convincing strength. .
This season, Charlton was relegated badly, and Luke Young switched from Charlton to Middlesbrough.
Here, the former England national team main defender Southgate gave him a lot of help. He quickly recovered his status and showed enough strength on the right, so he began to receive the more advanced Premier League. The favor of the team.
After all, Middlesbrough is only a mid-to-lower stream team and has had a headache for relegation almost every season.
Luke Young, like all players, looks forward to joining a more advanced team.
With this in mind, he has performed very well throughout the season.
Even during the winter break, his performance is still very good.
Until tonight, this scene met Liverpool.
Powerful dialogues are always particularly interesting, and Luke Young naturally knows this very well.
For more than an hour in the front, Lisse and Aurelio played well on the left, but Luke Yang was diligent and quite satisfactory, and there were no obvious mistakes.
Soon, Liverpool was replaced and Yang Yang replaced Lisse.
Mr. World Football, European Golden Globe, the first person in world football in the past year ...
Too many auras hang over Yang Yang's head, which makes him easy to become the focus of fans 'attention, and naturally becomes the focus of others' attention.
Who does n’t want to step on Yang Yang?
Freeze him directly, and tomorrow's newspaper will be full of the defender's name.
Luke Young is different from the young teammate David Witt who is eager to try. He is already 28 years old and more mature, and David Witt is only 21 years old, which is the age of the newborn calf .
Therefore, at first, Luke Young was still very restrained and did not dare to slack off.
Yang Yang did n’t look very good either. He did n’t perform very well. He took the ball several times and was quite good. After trying to break the ball, Luke Young and David Witt were both restrained. He quickly returned. Passed to teammates.
This world footballer doesn't look at his best.
Gradually, Luke Young began to try to show more.
Because he felt that he should have restrained this absent world footballer.
Even, he began to think that it is now eighty-three minutes. If Yang Yang is still sluggish, he will try to participate in the attack in two or three minutes, especially in the last few minutes.
With the idea, the heart could not bear it anyway, so he began to observe, and his attention was no longer focused on Yang Yang. He began to pay attention to his surrounding teammates and pay attention to the offensive of the front court.
During a quick counterattack in midfield, Luke Young hesitated whether to intervene.
Because Middlesborough's offense was concentrated too much on the left, Benitez quickly responded, limiting Downing.
If at this time, the right side also keeps up, I believe that the threat will be much greater, and it will be very sudden.
But when Luke Young hesitated, Liverpool's midfielder suddenly succeeded in stealing the ball.
Mascherano, this Argentine midfielder who played very well in this game, has once again successfully defended.
He was like an insurmountable barrier in Liverpool's midfield, protecting Liverpool's defense firmly.
After stealing the ball, Luke Young, like everyone else, wondered where he would pass the ball?
Unexpectedly, Mascherano seemed to feel the despise of the Middlesbrough defensive player. He took a step forward and looked up to the left.
Luke Young noticed Mascherano's eyes for the first time. Is he looking at me?
No, he is watching Yang Yang!
Luke Yang instinctively gave birth to an ominous hunch, turned his head to look at Yang Yang beside him, but the remaining light in the corner of his eyes only saw Yang Yang's hand extended, as if it was pointing forward.
He hadn't seen it completely, and he felt a figure in front of him.
It's really fast!
So special!
Is this Yang Yang's speed?
Luke Young didn't even reach out to grab it, but Yang Yang rushed past.
When he turned around, he saw that Yang Yang had rushed to the big restricted area.
"David!" Luke Young shouted loudly.
...
David Witt had already fallen behind Luke Young and was chased back the first time.
His height reached one meter ninety-six, a typical English strong man, but speed and turning are his weaknesses.
Although Yang Yang is faster, but the position is further back, David Witt is slower and turns slowly, but the position is closer to the goal direction, so the two rushed to the front of the penalty area almost simultaneously.
Mascherano's long pass from this foot is in the right direction, but it is a bit strong.
Goalkeeper Schwarzer resolutely chose to abandon the goal, but this was obviously a wrong decision.
Yang Yang and David Witt chased the frontier of the penalty area almost simultaneously, both of them turned away from the direction of the ball.
David Witt has two options, one is to come by himself and directly push the ball out to make a clearance.
Another way is to make way for yourself and give goalkeeper Schwarzer to make a clearance.
The young teenager was in a hurry, obviously hesitant and not decisive.
Yang Yang is about the same age as David Witt, but he is already experienced and experienced. After seeing Schwarzer attack, he knew that the Australian goalkeeper made a very wrong decision.
So, Yang Yang chose to slow down and turn around, blocking David Witt with his left hand, which is a strategy of interference.
This block made David Witt, who was already hesitating, stop at the same place.
Yang Yang was more flexible and turned around faster. He leaped directly before David Witt. He jumped high and stopped Mascherano ’s long pass to the chest. When he landed, his body happened to be David. · The middle of Witt and the ball.
David Witt blocked Schwartz's attack.
Yang Yang stopped the chest and the ball landed on his left side. Although he turned his back to the goal, his left foot lifted up, and he easily picked up the falling football.
The ball went from David Witt's side, crossed the attacking goalkeeper Schwarzer, and fell to the goal behind Middlesbrough.
It was also at this moment that Luke Yang chased near Yang Yang. After seeing Yang Yang kicking the left kick with his back against the goal, he shouted his fist without looking back and smiled. The mouth seems to have long eyes behind him, seeing that the ball has entered.
In fact, the goal was indeed scored.
From starting to shake off Luke Young, to slowing down, to stop the ball in the chest, and then to shoot from the left foot, the whole process took place in a very short time, and even many fans have not responded, the referee has already sounded Effective whistle for goals.
Understate! Easy!
Luke Yang stunned as Yang Yang walked slowly in front of him, celebrating the goal with his rushing teammate.
Suddenly he felt a very strong feeling, this is Mr. World Football!
Is this ball simple?
It depends on people!
Perhaps in Yang Yang's view, such a ball is very simple to handle, so he handles it like a cloud of water, even with a little chic.
But in Luke Young's view, the ball is very difficult. Speed, explosiveness, flexibility, physical fitness, and even the kick of the foot after the chest stops the ball, which requires a very good sense of shooting.
Take a look at David Witt and Schwarzer, these two are also regarded as the Premier League players, but in the situation just now, the two of them almost hit together, and Yang Yang stopped the ball freehand Come down and shoot the goal.
This is his first goal in two months!
So, Luke Young clearly heard that Gerrard jumped on Yang Yang's body, holding his head in excitement and shouting, "You finally scored! We finally wait until you score!"
The other Liverpool players are also extremely excited, obviously not just because of a victory.
Yang Yang, who scored so many goals, is back!
Maybe he is not in his best form, maybe he has not played much threats, but he scored again!
From the previous attack, Luke Young clearly felt the horror of Yang Yang. He even felt how stupid he had been to Yang Yang's paralysis.
With Yang Yang's speed and explosive power, as well as his excellent technique and sharp shooting sensation, even if he goes all out and stares at him intently, he may not be able to restrain him, even if he is distracted.
Not just him, David Witt, Schwarzer and others were also obviously careless.
Only coach Southgate, he is clearly very aware of Yang Yang ’s threats, so he is very worried, has been on the sidelines, constantly calling on players to pay attention, but he failed to play on behalf of players to participate in the game.
Luke Young looked at the Liverpool players excitedly clapped together, listening to the thunderous cheers coming from his ears, he was deeply scared, because he finally realized the strength of Mr. World Football!
He also finally understood why Yang Yang was able to score so many goals in the past year.
However, it was too late.
