Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 145 Against Croatia
Wang Liji was very satisfied with this trip to Xintra. Even the well-informed Beckham and Irving were fascinated by the grand Portuguese style of the palace. The building complex can give people a feeling of entering a paradise. Sintra is indeed a famous tourist attraction in Europe, and it is indeed very attractive.

And that restaurant's special seafood tastes very good, making several big men eat it with oily mouths and relish.When it comes to eating, I have to mention the interesting story between Owen and Wang Li. When Owen heard that Wang Li was good at eating, he insisted on dragging him to a competition. Under the sympathy of Beckham, Rooney and Bridget Under the eyes, the result is obvious, Owen was easily 'eaten' by Wang Li.

Of course, without Qin Lingling's spoiler, this trip would be perfect...

That night, Wang Li laughed and returned to the team after a few days. The next opponent they will face is Croatia, which has just returned to the top.Of course, Beckham, Irving and others will not feel anything about the next game, because they have not been able to enter the squad for the game at all, and the result of this game is irrelevant, because the England team has already sat firmly at the top of Group B. famous chair.

But for Wang Li, this is a game worth taking seriously, because this time he got the chance to start the game. This kind of opportunity is very difficult for the rookies of the England team, and he can only show himself well To gain greater trust from Eriksson, it will be more conducive to his rise in fame and lay a good start for his career as a star.

During the daily training the next morning, Eriksson finally announced the list of main players for the game. As Wang Li expected, he and Rooney partnered in this game as the England team's frontcourt double-knife. It met the expectations of the media and fans for the England double-star combination.Players who seldom played, such as Bridget, Dyer, Butt, and Jamie Carragher, also got a chance. Even the team's second goalkeeper, Paul Robinson, was included in the list of main players.

But relatively speaking, among these players on the field, goalkeeper Paul Robinson must be the most entangled, because just last year, he was the main goalkeeper of the England team, but now, if he wants to get a chance to play, he can only play in the In this irrelevant game.

In fact, for the entire team, except for newcomers like Wang Li who have just joined the players, most players still don't care much about this game, because the result of this game is not important at all.Moreover, after defeating the French team and the Swiss team, the whole team is full of confidence. They believe that facing a "fish sac" team like Croatia, even if they send a substitute lineup, they will still be easy. To win, you must know that even the central defender Bridget, who has never had a chance to play, is worth more than 800 million euros. This shows that the luxury of the England lineup is by no means comparable to that of some small teams.

Eriksson took a good look at the expressions and discussions of the players. Now the morale of the team is high and the locker room is harmonious. This is what the Swedes want to see. In football, results are everything. Good results, everyone will be satisfied, and this is also an affirmation of the Swede's coaching ability.

"The next game is the last game of the group stage. As the media said, the result is really irrelevant, but I still hope that the team can win." After all the players stopped discussing each other, they turned their heads to look this way , Eriksson continued with satisfaction: "The strength of the Croatian team is by no means as bad as imagined. Although it has not changed its name and there are no so-called big-name players, in fact, in the latest FIFA statistics , Croatia is ranked No.11, while England is only seventh, I believe you can understand what this means."

"And this year's Croatian team is aggressive and even drew with the French team in the last game. This kind of strength must not be underestimated. If I find out who doesn't take the game seriously on the court, then you don't have to play in future games!" In the end, Eriksson still reminded seriously.

…………

"Alan, do you want to go to the bar together?" After the training, Wang Li just came out of the bathroom, and Bridget asked expectantly.

There are some red light district bars in every city, where there are all kinds of beauties, some of them are full-time prostitutes, and more are sexy girls looking for excitement, such as Brigi, who is so hardworking, is that kind of place A regular visitor, he has been in Portugal for so many days, it seems that he can't bear it anymore.

Seeing Bridget's mysterious smile, Wang Li immediately shook his head resolutely. He already understood what Bridget meant.

Although Wang Li, a virgin of the third generation, wanted to get rid of this trouble, whether it was in his heart or his body, but in fact, he was still very conservative, and now that he had such a good look, he didn't want to put My first confession was in that kind of place, which was really a disadvantage.

After changing his clothes, Wang Li thought of Brigi's behavior, and his heart fluctuated a little, but instead of going to the red-light district, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Rita's number.In his opinion, dating Rita must be a better choice than going to that kind of place. Of course, with some follow-up development, it would be even better.

"Hey, Rita, what are you doing?" Wang Li's voice was calm, but his heart was not. This was the first time he invited Rita.

"I just finished negotiating a contract, came out of the cafe, and was about to go back to the hotel."

"Are you free to have a meal later? Well... it's a reward for your work." Wang Li seemed to be afraid of Rita's misunderstanding, so he added a sentence after he finished speaking.

"Hee hee..." Facing Wang Li's words, Rita laughed directly, "I'm very busy today, and I have to talk about things in the afternoon, can we talk about it tomorrow?"

Rita's refusal made Wang Li a little disappointed. He didn't understand the girl's heart, "But, I still have a match tomorrow night."

"Then after the game."

"But that's at least nine o'clock at night."

"I don't even care, what do you care about as a big man?" Rita asked amusedly on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, okay, then it's a deal, see you at the gate of the Stadium of Light tomorrow night."

Just as Rita was about to speak, a voice of 'beep, beep, beep...' came from the other end of the phone, and she said to herself a little funny: "Really, the first date is actually chosen at the gate of the stadium. The wood that explains the style!" However, she then thought that it was Wang Li who took the initiative to ask her out this time, and she felt sweet in her heart. After more than half a year of contact, Rita knew Wang Li very well. It's very good, but it's always silly when it comes to emotions.

"I really don't know what that little princess likes about him, hey!" Thinking of this, Rita's mood became depressed again. Although these days, Victoria often enlightened her in this regard and asked her to take the initiative to pursue happiness, Thinking of the age and background gap between herself and Wang Li, she always felt that she was not good enough for him.

At this time, the phone rang again. She picked it up and looked at it. It was an unfamiliar number, so she immediately shook her head, put aside these annoying things, and continued to work.

…………

Wang Li ate lunch by himself, and then spent the whole afternoon watching the football match on TV.Lying on the bed, watching TV with unfocused eyes, but thinking about Rita and Angela in his mind.It was like this until the evening, when he was really bored, he picked up his cell phone and called Angela again.

"Annie, have you had dinner yet? What are you doing?"

"Oh, Alan, I'm reading a book." Angela replied happily when she heard Wang Li's voice, put down the book in her hand.

"Read a book?"

"A few days ago, my dad wanted me to help him manage his business in the United States, so recently I have been reading some business books. Anyway, I also want to do this well." Angie La said seriously.

"Take care of business?" Wang Li frowned, confirming.He really didn't expect that Angela would take care of any business, but thinking about it, the royal family has so many properties, and they have to rely on these children to manage them. The current royal family doesn't have much preferential treatment, and they still have to rely on their own abilities Money-making, "Ok, ok, when are you coming to Portugal?"

"The day after tomorrow. I have asked Uncle Cole to help me book the ticket. This time it should be fine. Including you, there are only three people who know that I am going to Portugal."

"Come on quickly..., I miss you."

"Hee hee, don't be funny, don't think about other women."

"Impossible? I don't even know anyone." Startled, Wang Li quickly retorted.

"Hee hee, well, I'm just talking casually, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to continue reading."

"Okay, good bye."

"Well, good boy, hee hee." Angela said jokingly, then hung up the phone.

After making the phone call, Wang Li started to watch the football game again, slowly consuming time. It was not until after dinner that he began to meditate and rest, slowly immersing himself in an ethereal state.
