Debut at 17
Remember in one second
"Referee, this ball is a foul, why didn't you stop the game?" Maridimo's captain Brigel stepped forward to reason with the chief referee.
。
"You see Artur is still lying there in the penalty area, how can you let us play with one less man? You should blow it off!" Gret shouted as he walked over.
Other Marítimo players rushed over and demanded an explanation from the referee.
"Luis, don't you think there's a problem with the referee's decision on this play?" Cristiano slyly threw this question at Figo in the broadcast room.
"This ball should have been a foul from the defender's tackle just now, but the referee didn't blow it, maybe he had his own reasons." Figo said helplessly: "But when Artur was injured and fell to the ground, the players of Sporting CP should have kicked the ball out of bounds instead of taking advantage of the situation to attack. In this regard, Sporting CP, who has been attacking for a long time, obviously forgot about sportsmanship."
Figo even as a Lisbon sports legend stood on the side of Marítimo in such situation.
But the referee would not hear Figo's remarks, and even if he did, he would not change his decision. As for Artur, who was still lying outside the opponent's penalty area, he had already called the team doctor to come and treat him, and this period of time could be used to calm down the Maritimo players' mentality.
Martins, who was furious on the sidelines, is now worried. The team's midfielders are already scarce, and Artur, the midfielder, has been injured by the opponent, and the injury doesn't seem to be light. The score falling behind makes him even more worried.
Martins whispered two sentences to assistant coach Carlos Hulcher on the side, and Hulcher walked to the substitute bench, beckoning Wu Yu and another midfielder Oliviera Riedson to warm up on the long side.
Wu Yu's heart tightened after Artur got injured. The moment when Sporting Lisbon scored a goal, the atmosphere at Alvalade Stadium was even more terrifying for him. At this time, the assistant coach asked him to warm up, and he immediately jumped up, jogging vaguely on the sidelines amidst the loud singing of Sporting Lisbon fans.
At this point, he still didn't think he had a chance to substitute, because Reedson, who warmed up with him, was obviously more experienced than him, although the opponent hadn't played this season either.
Artur was taken to the sidelines for treatment, and the match resumed. Marítimo, who had started to gain a foothold, suddenly lost possession of the ball, and with one fewer player on the field, they were again pinned back in their own half by Sporting CP's relentless attack, with danger lurking once more in front of goal.
。
"What a cursed game for Maridimo, another midfielder injured. This is their third midfielder to be injured in two weeks, now there are only two young players left on the bench." Kristin said regretfully.
"Not good, if Artur can't hold on to the game, Maridimo's substitute Reedson and that Chinese youngster Wu Yu, both can't replace his role, this game Maridimo is likely to have little hope." Figo said slowly while looking at Maridimo's lineup.
"Let's take a look at Artur's injury first, if he can't hold on, we can only use 23-year-old Brazilian youngster Liedson, who hasn't played this season yet. Hopefully, the atmosphere of Alvalade Stadium won't scare him off." Cristiano said with a half-joking tone, seemingly completely ignoring Wu Yong.
On the sidelines, Artur struggled to get up after two or three minutes of treatment by the team doctor, and re-entered the game with the referee's consent. However, from his stumbling run and painful expression on his face, it can be felt that the injury of this midfielder core is not optimistic.
Everyone on the sidelines of Maridimo, including Wu Yu and Reedson who were warming up, looked worried at Artur in the field.
After Artur ran hard on the field for more than ten minutes, he finally couldn't hold on and gestured to the side of the field that he wanted to be substituted.
"Ah, Artur indeed couldn't hold on. Although Maridimo withstood Sporting Lisbon's fierce attack in this period, after Artur was substituted out, the outcome is probably already decided." Cristiano seemed to be somewhat regretful.
"Okay, let's see who will substitute in." He then looked at the live broadcast screen and exclaimed: "Ah? It's actually him!?"
In the TV screen, Wu Yus figure appeared in front of the camera, at this time he had already taken off his warm-up vest and was wearing a yellow second away jersey. Assistant coach Huerka was on the side telling him what to do after entering the field and other tactical arrangements.
Wu Yu's face was full of surprised and delighted expressions, earlier when the assistant coach asked him to take off his clothes and get ready to go on court, he didn't even react. Now he is about to take the first step of his professional career in this nearly 50,000-seat stadium, but he suddenly feels that happiness has come a bit too quickly for him.
Hao'erke was whispering tactical arrangements in his ear, and Wu Yun didn't even hear what he said. He only knew that after he went on the field, he must seize this opportunity to show off his skills in front of fans all over the world.
。
"Look at this young player who transferred from China this season, born in 1995. Look at what changes he can bring to Marítimo after taking the field." Cristiano looked at Wu Yu with a determined expression on his face, seemingly with some expectation.
"In my opinion, this unknown player from Martins' team is probably going to give up the match in order to train this young talent." Figueroa said his guess out loud.
"Wu Yu, be brave! Show us your best side!" Wu Yu walked to the edge of the court, and the fourth official had already raised his hand to signal a substitution. Head coach Martins walked up to Wu Yu's side and cheered him on.
Wu Yus nodded heavily and walked to the side of the field with Artur, who was limping, after high-fiving him. He stepped out with his right foot and trod on this piece of green turf. For some reason, he, who had never been religious, unconsciously bowed down and touched the grass with his right hand.
Perhaps I'm doing this to truly feel the atmosphere of this green field. Wu Yu said to himself.
Wu Yus quickly ran to the midfield area, replacing Artur's position earlier, and formed a three-midfield partnership with Griedge and Pereira. He didn't hear clearly what the assistant coach said to him just now, and at this time, he was only communicating with the other two midfielders on the field with gestures and eyes, indicating that he had replaced Artur's position.
Artur plays a very important role in the entire tactical system of Maridimo, and is the team's offensive and defensive pivot. If 18-year-old Wu Yun replaces him, no one knows if he can play like Artur.
On September 21, 2013, in the fifth round of the Portuguese Super League, Lisbon Athletic played at home against Maritimo. In the 33rd minute, Chinese young player Wu Lei replaced Artur and made his professional debut wearing the No. 26 jersey.
The game restarted, Martins looked serious at the sidelines, watching Wu Yu's run on the field, he measured in his heart, hoping that he didn't misjudge this time.
Benfica continued to dominate the game, with Wu Lei shrinking back to defend in front of the 30-meter area as a midfielder. After scoring one goal, the opponent did not rush forward but patiently passed the ball around the periphery of the penalty area, hoping to find a gap in Maritimo's defense.
"Now the rhythm of the game is still controlled by Sporting Lisbon, Maritimo seems to have no chance even after half-time and can only be tired of defending. Wait, Grett in the backcourt steals, Maritimo has a counter-attack opportunity, Chinese young player Wu Yu ran to a very good position!"
"What a pity, Gret didn't pass the ball to Wu Yu, but instead passed it horizontally to Pereira. When Pereira passed the ball to Wu Yu again, it was already too late, and the defensive player of Rissben Athletic intercepted the ball."
。”
……
"Alright, now the game is in its 37th minute, China's young player Wu Yu gets the ball in midfield, this should be his first touch since coming on. Beautiful! He easily gets past Andre Martins who was pressing high up the pitch and has already made it past the halfway line..." The commentator, Kristian, excitedly narrates the scene from the broadcast room.
Wu Lei got the ball for the first time in nearly four minutes after the last game, and immediately used a fake move to get past Sporting Lisbon's talented midfielder Andre Martins, who was pressing high up the field, bringing the ball over half court, and Maritimo rarely had a chance to counterattack.
Wu Yu pushed the ball over half court and quickly looked around, but in the midst of nearly 50,000 cheering fans, Wu Yu, who was playing his first professional game, seemed a bit overwhelmed. Up front, Dili was making runs, pulling the opponent's defense, Danilo was on the left, and Hailton was rapidly advancing on the right, with three points available to receive the pass in the frontcourt.
As he observed the situation on the field, a green figure quickly approached him. Just as Wu Yu decided to pass the ball, a defender from Lisben Sports made a flying tackle, directly knocking Wu Yu and the ball to the ground.
Oh...
Among the gasps of the on-site fans, Wu Yu was felled to the ground like a sapling.
Beep!!
The referee's whistle finally sounded, and Sporting CP committed a foul. The defender who committed the foul walked up to Wu Yu and said with a fierce expression: "Kid, this is football, a man's sport!"
After finishing speaking, he ran back, and even the yellow card given by the referee, he shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
"Wu Yu, get up, don't be afraid of him, next time pass the ball a bit faster." Brigel came over to help Wu Yu up and whispered in his ear.
Wu Yu bent down to pull up his socks, then raised his head to look at the nearly 1.9-meter-tall Lisben Athletic defender, his eyes sharp and firm.
But it's just being knocked down to the ground, wanting to step onto a bigger stage, this is just an inevitable step, not worth fearing at all!
