Chapter 182

Why are Royal Mechanics players worried?

Because of the restructured FA Cup, teams from the Super League will join from the fourth round. Moreover, in addition to the final, the first six rounds and semi-finals of the current FA Cup are all single-elimination matches.

In the first round, a total of [-] teams will draw lots to determine their opponents.The winning eight teams advance to the second round.

In the second round, the top 32 teams in the second division, the top four in the FA Cup qualifying round plus the eight teams that advanced in the first round, a total of [-] teams will draw lots to determine their opponents.

In the third round, the teams that advanced in the second round will be placed at home according to the established lottery, and the [-] teams of the First Division will draw lots as the away team to challenge.

And in the fourth round, the Super League teams will draw lots to challenge the winner of the third round away.

Perhaps, as the top amateur team, the Royal Machinery Factory can compete with the teams in the second division, and even the teams in the first division, but compared to the most professional super league teams Woolen cloth?

The Football Association Cup has a dark horse award. If the Royal Machinery Factory can reach the fourth round and lose in front of the Super League team, they will become the biggest dark horse.

However, the players of the Royal Machinery Factory are by no means reconciled to this.Even if other players are willing, Wen Liangcheng and Tang Song, who finally got the chance to play against the Super League team, will not be reconciled.

But if they lost to Lu Xiao's Super League team, then everyone would not be reconciled!

It's one thing for them to forgive Lu Xiao in their hearts, but it's another thing to meet him on the court!Now that it has been proved that they can win the championship in Linyuan City without Lu Xiao, they want to prove that they are no worse than Lu Xiao!

However, Lu Xiao's strength in this game made them clearly realize the gap between them and the Super League teams.

If the opponent fights with all their strength, not only will they have no chance of winning, they will definitely have no chance of winning!

"You guys..." At this time, Lin Yutong giggled and said, "Why are you asking for trouble before passing the FA Cup qualifying final? Others are the second-ranked super team! The league and the AFC Champions League Their ultimate goal. If they meet us in the FA Cup and send out the main force, wouldn't they be laughed out of hand? And didn't you listen to Ke Jun's nasty flattery? The stronger Lu Xiao is, the worse their head coach will be He will be sent to play in this kind of game that doesn't matter to them. So don't worry... When Lu Xiao dares to play in the FA Cup, the fans will probably drown him in their saliva."

"Haha..." After a while, someone laughed awkwardly.

"Are you comforting us, or are you despising us?" Wu You, who was most emotionally stable, asked.

"Of course it is... Hey, the game is over, if you don't eat your food, it will be cold!" Lin Yutong quickly changed the topic.

Everyone laughed and put this trouble behind.

They feel that they are too proud.What is the champion of Linyuan City in front of the Super League team?For this kind of amateur team, half of the main players sent by the Super League are self-deprecating.And if only young players and bench players are sent, the Royal Machinery Factory can actually pass by accidental luck in the single round-robin system.

This is of course not that the teams in the Super League underestimate the enemy, but the convention in everyone's heart.After all, when the Super League meets an amateur team, it is already equivalent to an adult beating a child. If the main force is still deployed, wouldn't it be a heavyweight boxer to bully the child?

This kind of disdainful behavior will not only be regarded as a lifelong black spot by other teams, but even fans of their own team may cast aside it.Because the Football Association Cup is originally a stage for grassroots teams, and it is also a place where everyone expects to produce dark horses. If those low-level teams are not given any chance, even if they win, they will lose public opinion.No Super League team would risk the world's disgrace.

Moreover, there are so many youth players in the Super League and players who are in urgent need of recovery. If this kind of competition does not give them a chance to exercise, is it true that the newcomers that emerge every season in the Super League come out of thin air?

After figuring out this quarter, the players of the Royal Machinery Factory are in a better mood.

They have already begun to forgive Lu Xiao, and now that Lu Xiao and them have no competitive relationship, of course they can hope that Lu Xiao will live a better life without any ties.And next year, Lu Xiao will make a big splash in the Super League and the AFC Champions League, which is exactly what they hope to see.

The game is over, and so is the live TV broadcast.

The Royal Machinery Factory began to discuss the next arrangement.Because of their different situations, the team does not require everyone to go to Haikou at the same time.

Those who are not hindered by work will go there with Wen Liangcheng tomorrow.Others go in batches according to their own situation.Tang Song and Wang Dazhuang are students, and the final exam is approaching recently. The two of them only need to arrive on time before the game.

"For the FA Cup!" The players of the Royal Machinery Factory toasted again.

Lu Xiao has already taken off on a higher platform, so they have to catch up as soon as possible!

"People in the fourth factory must do their best no matter what they do!" What Lu Xiao said back then was mentioned again.

Maybe they are weak at this time, and there are even countless opponents who make them helpless, but they will gradually become stronger, and one day they will have the courage and ability to challenge those opponents that people look up to!

While the Royal Machinery Factory players toasted, Lu Xiao also followed his teammates to thank the fans.

One of his goals changed the dull draw that the fans probably didn't want to see the most, and made the fans remember him deeply in their hearts.Therefore, the same name resounded throughout the stadium: "Lu Xiao!"

Lu Xiao pursed his lips tightly, trying not to show too much emotion.

During these four years, Tang and Song put pressure on him all the time.He betrayed Tang Song and came to this place. If it turns out that he can't meet the requirements of the Super League, what is the point of what he did back then?

Today, with this goal, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief. More than 1000 days and nights of torment and unremitting training have made him completely different from before.His advantages are more obvious, and his shortcomings are slowly being made up for. In the future, as long as he has enough playing time, he will definitely be able to fulfill the original agreement!

When passing a camera, Lu Xiao rushed to the camera and stretched out his five fingers. He knew that Tang Song must still be watching. He wanted to tell Tang Song in this way that he still remembered the oath of the five golden shoes and would definitely work hard to complete it. !

"That..." The photographer told Lu Xiao a little embarrassedly: "The live broadcast is over, and the machine has been turned off..."

"It's okay, I just want to clean the lens for you." Lu Xiao said with some embarrassment.

"Haha, I appreciate your kindness. However, if you have anything to express, you can go to the reporter. They are waiting for you now." The photography uncle warmly reminded.He was obviously the most eye-catching player on the field, but he was so kind to help him clean the camera after the game, the photographer was a little moved.

"Thank you, but Mourinho will not allow me to be interviewed privately." After speaking, Lu Xiao hurriedly left.

The photographer was taken aback for a moment, then smiled softly.The moment Lu Xiao scored a goal, his whole body was full of passion. The photographer thought he would be a young player who was proud of his talent, but he didn't expect him to be so polite, even showing a little childish innocence.

Such a player really makes people look forward to his future...

Of course, Uncle Photographer doesn't think that all players have to be like Lu Xiao, who has to be humble outside of the game.He also likes players with flamboyant personalities, but when a player's strength has not been recognized, he unilaterally pursues his flamboyant style, which is not personality, but arrogance.

Although Lu Xiao scored a goal in this game, he is still just a young player, and his ability is far from being recognized by everyone.At this time, maintain a humble and cautious attitude, and you will get more praise from the public opinion.

After looking at Lu Xiao's straight back again, the photography uncle smiled and packed up the machine.He decided to focus the camera on Lu Xiao in the next live broadcast of Liaocheng Moonlight, so that he would have enough time to convey what he couldn't wait to express.

Mu Weiping waited patiently on the sidelines until Lu Xiao took the initiative to come back, and then he asked with a straight face, "Have you had enough trouble?"

Lu Xiao was taken aback, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.He didn't think thanking the fans with his teammates was nonsense, but since Mu Weiping was a little angry, his first reaction was that he had done something wrong.

"Mourinho, I'm sorry..."

"Come with me when you've had enough trouble. Those reporters must have cursed in their hearts." Mu Weiping's face stretched, showing a gratified smile.

"Reporter? What reporter?" Lu Xiao was a little dazed.

"Idiot!" Several young Liaocheng Moonlight players laughed and scolded at the same time, "Mourinho said it was a press conference!"

Lu Xiao still looked a little stupid: "The press conference...isn't that..." He deliberately avoided the reporter's interview just now, why did Mu Weiping take the initiative to send him in front of the reporter so quickly?

"That's nothing! Hurry up and follow me! Where is the momentum when you score!" Mu Weiping greeted the players angrily, and rushed Lu Xiao to the post-match press conference.

This kid...

Mu Weiping smiled and shook his head behind the lively crowd.What he valued the most was Lu Xiao's domineering arrogance on the court. This quality of Lu Xiao was especially important when no one was interested in competing.

But off the court, this kid still can't feel it. Next year, he will become the team's hottest new star, and he can't be so young by then.

After Mu Weiping took Lu Xiao to the press conference, the rest of the players gathered around Ma Jun, all with unnatural expressions.

"Brother Ma, this day seems to be changing." Someone whispered.

"With me here, it won't change!" Ma Jun said fiercely.

However, he was still very uneasy.

From Mu Weiping's attitude, it can be seen that next year's Liaocheng Moonlight will inevitably use more young players.However, these veterans who have made great contributions to the team cannot just be at the mercy of others!

Subconsciously, Ma Jun picked up the phone and thought of someone.
