We Are the Champion

### We Are the Champion

Levi once listened very carefully while Kassel taught some basic tactical theory courses to New Manchester United players.

Regarding the passing ability of midfield players, especially midfield players, Kassel believes it can be divided into three abilities: insight, reading ability, and passing ability.

These three terms are not difficult to understand. The so-called insight actually requires the player to have the ability to find the loopholes in the opponent's defense system and then use the pass to defeat the opponent's defense.

The first player Levi thought of was Real Madrid's Golden Wolf, Guti. The insight of the Fourteenth Lord was truly innate. His scalpel-like penetrating passes were invincible, even Xavi of Barcelona could not compare.

However, this does not mean that Xavi is not as good as Guti, because Xavi is better at reading games, which also has a lot to do with Barcelona's tradition of producing No. 4 players.

As for passing ability, it depends more on acquired training.

Smith has been playing in the amateur league and has never received regular football training, so his passing skills can only be regarded as average. However, it is precisely because of his insight that he can occasionally pierce the opponent's defensive loopholes. He has been developed into the core of New Manchester United's midfield this season.

Now, Smith has once again seen the loophole in the opposing team, but is he going to pass?

Several times, Smith saw it, but the pass was misaligned, and several of them caused Evra to run back and forth.

"Stephen, give it to me!" Richie got rid of the entanglement of the opposing players and cut from the left to the middle.

Smith passed almost without thinking.

Due to the short distance, the ball came to Richie's feet smoothly. The latter almost didn't hesitate, just stopped the ball and immediately passed it to the left corner.

The opposing wingback and back were both attracted by Richie, resulting in a large gap in the left rear.

The players on the field couldn't see clearly, but Levi and the fans in the stands could see clearly.

Evra's black figure had already crossed the center line and chased the ball with lightning speed.

At the moment when Richie cut in, Evra was still in the area where the opponent's defensive players did not think threatened, but in a blink of an eye, he was already in a critical position.

To avoid being overtaken by the opponent, Richie's pass, although not weak, looked like it might go out of bounds. However, Evra was still accelerating and accelerating again!

"Patrice!"

"Patrice!"

"Patrice!"

The shouting of the fans in the stands grew louder, especially as Evra stopped the ball just before it went out of bounds. The fans erupted in cheers.

At this moment, regardless of whether Evra could bring goals to the team or even win, he was a hero in the hearts of the fans.

Evra stabilized the ball, paused, and noticed that David Bell was moving to the right, and one of the opposing center defenders and right defender also moved to the right. This was a good opportunity.

Evra immediately passed a low ball, full of strength, quickly coming to the near post. Jonathan's majestic body appeared where it should. He just needed to lift his foot, and the ball hit his calf heavily and bounced into the goal.

With such a close shot, the opponent's goalkeeper couldn't even respond, and the central defender who was behind Jonathan was even more embarrassed. Who told him he couldn't compete with Jonathan?

Jonathan turned and ran towards Evra on the left. Before the latter could respond, he pressed him to the ground, followed by Rich, Smith, Bell, and finally Markinson.

"Hey, Karl, do you want to crush him?" Levi sat in the first row, shouting particularly loudly.

Makinson on the field paused, then laughed.

After being suppressed for 70 minutes, the team finally breathed a big sigh of relief, so the players seemed particularly excited.

Under the referee's interference, the celebration did not last long, but the celebration in the stands had just begun.

Glossop was obviously shocked by the sudden goal, especially with the increasingly flexible cooperation between Evra and Richie.

Richie cuts in, Evra moves forward, and once Richie reaches the bottom, Evra will support him from behind, either cutting in or transferring to Smith in the middle.

In this way, the entire left lane of New Manchester United became alive!

After assisting Jonathan, Evra grew more and more excited. He ran all over the field. He could be seen attacking, and he could return to his position when defending. This was just like his peak period.

The only difference is that his ability is still far from his peak, the world's number one left-back. But don't forget, he was just 18 years old in May; he is quite young and has significant room for progress.

With Richie helping attract the opponent's defensive pressure, Evra became more flexible.

In the 81st minute of the second half, Richie took a pass from Smith, left and bottomed, and was blocked by the opponent's back and full-back. He had to pass back to Evra.

After receiving the ball, Evra cut inward and came to the left corner of the penalty area near the arc. Seeing that the opponent's goalkeeper was slightly out of position, he took a powerful long shot.

The ball, like a cruise missile, drew an arc in mid-air. Everyone was stunned as it brushed the near post and entered the net. The goalkeeper was too late to even react.

There was a louder cheer than after Jonathan's goal. Even Evra felt stunned and stood there until Richie ran over and hugged him.

Yes, he scored! He scored the first goal of his life!

Then he started to run, broke free from the entanglement of Rich and others, and started running towards the stand, running directly in front of the stand where Levi was. By this time, he was already in tears.

"Thank you! Thank you! Boss! Thank you!" Evra held Levi's hand tightly, sobbing.

Many fans around them stretched out their hands and wanted to pull Evra's jersey, but Evra held Levi's hand, crying.

Evra is not a traverser, so he didn't know that even if Levi didn't show up, he would be seen by an Italian team, then go to Italy, and return to France after several years of semi-professional training, eventually becoming famous.

Now he just knew clearly that Levi made him a professional player and constantly encouraged him, letting him learn from Lyons and continuously strengthen himself. Levi was like a close brother who made him feel warm in this lonely Manchester.

"Patrice!" Levi shouted in the stands.

Evra raised his eyes.

"Go, grab the ball and give it to me. I'll take it back for you to store it. This is your first goal. Hurry up!" Levi was in a good mood, smiling and pointing at the Glossop forward in the middle circle.

Evra was stunned but quickly ran over, took another ball from the side, and ran all the way to the middle circle, exchanged the ball he scored with, and then ran over and handed it to Levi.

The moment Evra handed the ball to Levi, Scarlett, not far away, held up her camera and captured the touching scene.

She had already thought about the title for tomorrow, and she believed all readers would like it.

Although the referee of the amateur league is weak in law enforcement, he is also lenient in some aspects, such as shirtless celebrations and delaying game time when celebrating after scoring. Sometimes these behaviors are not punished.

After the referee urged several times, Evra walked back to the field. He especially walked over to the coach's seat along the way and deeply hugged Bruce, obviously thanking him as well.

After Evra scored the second goal for New Manchester United, the game completely lost suspense, especially as Glossop saw that the morale and state of New Manchester United players had fully blossomed, their only hope was not to let them score again.

In fact, even this hope became a luxury.

Still Evra, this magical left-winger performed exceptionally well in this game, especially in the second half.

In the 89th minute, he pulled to the left, made a pass, received a pass from Makinson, and kicked the ball diagonally into the penalty area.

3:0! New Manchester United locked in the victory!

At the same time, Manchester United fans in the stands began singing "We Are the Champions."

Yes, at this moment, singing this classic song was the most fitting scenario. After winning this game, New Manchester United would win the Northwest Division B title this year. The only thing left was the Northwest League Challenger Cup final on May 19, where New Manchester United would face Ashton from the super group. This semi-professional team has always had stable performances, neither promoted nor relegated, always in the middle ranks.

For this final, New Manchester United was full of confidence. Bruce also gave the team a death order: since they lost to Arsenal in the FA Cup, New Manchester United must win the Challenger Cup as compensation.

After a glorious and magical season, no one could deny that New Manchester United was the favorite for the Challenger Cup championship.

When the referee blew the final whistle, the stadium suddenly became a sea of joy. The players hugged each other, and even the substitutes rushed out.

No one could have imagined that New Manchester United could win a championship in its first year of establishment. Although this was only the Northwest Division B championship, it was already surprising.

Levi sat in the stands, watching the fans around him celebrating with each other, and felt very happy. After a year, he finally won a championship. This was the first championship of New Manchester United. Levi naturally attached great importance to it and was very excited.

The only regret is that the championship trophy would have to wait until the 42nd round of the league. New Manchester United sits at home, and after the game, the FA will send someone to present the trophy, which will inevitably be less joyful.

"I believe that now in Manchester, there must be a lot of fans who have heard the news, are celebrating, or discussing how to welcome the team's arrival!" Derek, also looking particularly excited, said from the side.

Back on the field, the celebrations continued, with players hugging each other and cheering. The sense of accomplishment was palpable; they had made history.

Levi couldn't help but reflect on the journey. A year ago, New Manchester United was just an idea, a dream he dared to pursue. Through hard work, dedication, and some luck, they had not only formed a team but had also turned it into a championship-winning side.

As the fans continued to sing "We Are the Champions," Levi's mind was already on the future. Winning the Northwest Division B was just the beginning. The Challenger Cup final was approaching, and the goal was to bring home another trophy. Beyond that, the ambition was clear: climb the ranks, challenge stronger teams, and establish New Manchester United as a force to be reckoned with.

For now, though, it was time to celebrate. Levi joined the fans and players in their revelry, knowing that while the road ahead was long and filled with challenges, moments like these made it all worthwhile.

The sun set over the stadium, casting a golden glow on the jubilant scene.
