[新聞] A Special Talent

Hernandez ignites United


Sometimes in football there is nothing quite so exciting as the first time you see a prodigiously talented player in the flesh and realise you might be witnessing something special. It is that rich sense of anticipation, and when it is a young player who shows no sign of trepidation about being handed the keys to the football universe it can feel even more exhilarating and rare.



For Manchester United's supporters in Dublin tonight, that sensation was supplied by a player who was barely known outside his native Mexico when his signing was announced in April. Everything we have seen of Javier Hernández since then points to a man of exquisite gifts inside the penalty area, one who is quickly demonstrating why Sir Alex Ferguson believes, post-World Cup, that his true valuation could be three or four times the £8m that Chivas received for him. He had scored within 90 seconds of being introduced, a half-time substitute in a 7-1 win against an Airtricity League XI.


It was a rasping, instinctive, first-time shot and the ball was still rising as it hit the back of the net. OK, it was only a pre-season friendly but it was still a stunning finish, the highlight of an evening in which Wayne Rooney played his first 45 minutes since the World Cup but could not soothe his own confidence by being among United's scorers.

hope he can fit in the team perfectly.......
