Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 399 Opening --- An Instant Goal

Regarding the "own curse" mentioned by Wang Li, the media supporting Chelsea's side cheered up, and they finally found favorable "evidence" to prove that the other party's statement was wrong.

The "Kicker" newspaper that issued this report is even more popular. Many fans are very interested in the topic of Wang Li's curse. Although as an insider, it is far-fetched for Wang Li to predict his team's game. , but in fact it is the same as what he said, as long as he said that Chelsea won all the games, and the opponent did lose.

This made many media think of Wang Li's title of "Emperor of Prophecy" during the European Cup. This made them feel that Wang Li's prediction was indeed very accurate. After all, so far, there has been no unsuccessful time.

Therefore, the media supporting Chelsea seized this opportunity and immediately launched indiscriminate reports. In the report on the 20th, the "Sun", which spent a lot of pounds to get some inside information from the "Kicker" "Bear the brunt, they said in the report: "...Whether it is Bailey's big mouth, or the curse of the South Wing locker room, it is not more accurate than Allen's prediction, because none of them can do [-]%, so, no matter In terms of strength or other aspects, Chelsea have no reason to lose."

The Times, which has always been neutral, claimed that we should be more concerned about the game itself rather than these scattered issues. When talking about Wang Li's prediction, they said: "Alan's prediction is indeed accurate, but it is only because of his body. In relation to Chelsea, if he goes to a relegated team from League One, will his prediction always be accurate?"

Then, they analyzed the strength of the two teams, "Objectively speaking, Chelsea's strength is indeed stronger than Arsenal's. It is undeniable that the performance gap between the two teams this season is too great. On top of the entire Arsenal team, but a game is a game, whoever wins will have to be seen on the football field, maybe Arsenal will be lucky tomorrow."

The "Guardian" ridiculed that Wang Li should endorse some securities companies when he was unable to fight back. His ability to predict may help many scattered investors find confidence in the stock market.

Not to mention, the statement of the "Guardian" really moved many securities companies, and many bosses were tempted, so Rita received many calls again, all of them were inquiring about the contract of Wang Li's endorsement.

At this time, Rita's trip to the ancient oriental country has come to an end. Although there is not much time, this time it has been fruitful.

She only spent 700 million pounds to help Wang Li buy a Zhejiang basketball team that can participate in the CBA, called the Zhejiang Quangang Team.This team is an old CBA team. Although there is little hope of winning the championship, it still has some strength. If Wang Li is interested in returning to China during the holiday, then he also has a place to stay. Maybe when his value skyrockets After that, it may also create a super strong team to compete in the CBA.

In addition, she also signed several commercial advertising sponsorship contracts, including many large enterprises in the ancient eastern country, such as: the broadband leading telecommunications company in the ancient eastern country, the milk giant Yili Company, the Eastern Aerospace Corporation, etc., since the last time After the imperial sports station made a positive report on Wang Li, Wang Li's name has caused a wave of trends in the distant ancient country. Many famous companies are very interested in finding a foreign superstar as an advertising spokesperson. Besides, Wang Li also He is of half Chinese descent.

However, these companies are all monopolistic companies in the ancient eastern country, but they have not yet opened up the European market, so the same type of manufacturer sponsorship contracts can be signed twice. This is the most important reason why Rita came to the ancient eastern country, otherwise If these contracts affect Wang Li's endorsement contracts in Europe, the loss outweighs the gain.

After finishing her work in Europe, Rita came directly to Cardiff, Wales. As Wang Li's agent, she was very busy. In the past few days, there have been wealthy teams inquiring about Wang Li's transfer. She doesn't know Wang Li's exact thoughts about this, so she can't express any attitude, but these people are all giants of European football, and she can't offend them.

After arriving in Cardiff, Rita called Wang Li directly and asked him to meet after training in the morning. She wanted to talk about the results of this trip and his choice of transfer in the summer.

In fact, Rita hasn't seen Wang Li for a long time, and the two haven't had any physical contact since Christmas. Rita also misses him very much, in faraway Wales, in this place without Angela , Rita felt a kind of relaxation and freedom, because she was not afraid that the relationship between the two would be dismantled by the latter, which would affect the relationship between Angela and Wang Li. She felt that being an unknown person behind the scenes was enough.

Rita's dress is completely different from Angela's. Angela's dress is more in line with the image of a little princess, sometimes wearing some high school girl's clothes, while Rita is always dressed in orthodox professional women's clothes, even When she is casual, she will also dress up in short skirts. With the temperament of a professional woman and her beautiful figure, it can be said that no man will not be tempted.

Wang Li is of course one of them. After getting used to Angela, every time he saw Rita, he would have an impulse. This time the two met was no exception, but this time he couldn't hold back, because when After he got off the taxi, Rita, who was waiting on the side of the street, rushed over with tears in her eyes, and plunged into his arms.

Warm in his arms, Wang Li was no longer willing to push away.

It took a while for Rita to realize that this is the street. She looked around with lingering fear, and when she found no one, she raised her head to look at Wang Li with a flushed face, and then she couldn't help but want to take down Wang Li. Lee's sunglasses, and moved his small mouth closer.

"No, there are many reporters around." Seeing her action, Wang Li was so frightened that he quickly held her little hand to prevent her from making any further actions.

Rita smiled embarrassedly, looked around again, and then came out from Wang Li's arms, took his hand, and said, "You haven't had dinner yet, let's go eat together?" A taxi happened to come, and Rita held out her hand to stop it.

The two got into the taxi, and Wang Li asked the driver to drive to the French restaurant yesterday.

The driver was a local, but he knew the road very well. Wang Li only said his name, and he drove directly to the door of the restaurant.After eating, Wang Li and Wang Li showed each other again, the atmosphere was a little awkward, so Wang Li said: "I have to participate in the game tonight, I have to go back early, otherwise Mr. Mourinho will get angry .”

Thinking about the angry look of the Portuguese, Rita chuckled and said, "Okay, but after the game is over, you must come out as soon as possible."

"But I still have to go to receive the award"

Rita glared at Wang Li and said, "It won't take long, I'll wait for you outside the stadium."

Wang Li smiled and said, "Okay."

"By the way, do you still have tickets? I didn't come in time to buy tickets."

"There are a few." As he spoke, Wang Li took out a few tickets from his pocket and said, "I don't know anyone here, and none of the tickets issued by the club have been sent out."

Rita took the ticket, took Wang Li's hand, put her in his arms, raised her head and kissed him, and said with a smile, "Hurry up, it's not good to delay training."

Wang Li gently squeezed her little hand and said, "Okay, see you tonight."

This afternoon, Chelsea only had more than an hour of warm-up training in the training ground, and then they all got on the bus and went to the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. It was 4 o'clock when they arrived at the stadium. At this time, there were already many fans blocking the entrance of the stadium, and some scattered tabloid reporters wandered in. They did not have the right to enter the stadium for interviews, and could only interview fans outside the stadium.

After entering the stadium, the whole team rushed to the locker room to change clothes, and then, under the leadership of assistant coach Clark, went to the stadium to do training to adapt to the field, while the head coach Jose Mourinho went to participate in the game previous press conference.

This was the first meeting between Wenger and Mourinho after the Football Cup draw.

At the press conference, Wenger expressed the hope that Chelsea can play the momentum of a strong team and should not always use passive tactics of keeping tight to the goal. He hopes that Arsenal and Chelsea can contribute a wonderful offensive battle for the fans.

No matter what the final is, the game will be a very boring battle. The two teams will play very steadily. Wenger feels that Chelsea and Arsenal have played against each other many times. There is no need for this kind of temptation. The two teams should be real. Instead of using conservative tactics, as a team in the League Cup, league and Champions League finals, Chelsea should show the momentum that a strong team should have.

Judging from Wenger's words, he has always put Arsenal in the position of the weak, and the Frenchman's expression won the sympathy of many media present, which made Mourinho seem like a bad guy, and Chelsea is a need. The down bully is average.

However, Mourinho was noncommittal to Wenger's words. He just smiled and sat like that, but there was no sign of being persuaded on his face. When a reporter interviewed Mourinho and asked him what he thought about Wenger's words At the time, he said: "I never reveal the tactics before the game. I can only say that I am very confident in the game. As for whether we use offense to win or defense to win, I don't think it is necessary to discuss. A lot of people say my football is utilitarian football, but competitive games are like that, winning is everything, and Chelsea have played well this season, at least we scored [-] times more goals than Arsenal, I think Chelsea There should be a lot of offense, I don't know why Mr. Wenger said that Chelsea does not have the momentum of a strong team?"

This sentence directly hit Wenger's sore spot. Although Arsenal is a team that advocates offense, the number of goals scored this season is 31 goals behind Chelsea. This gap is really too big.

However, Wenger did not have anything to say. He said bluntly: "Everyone can understand what tactics Chelsea always play. I don't think it is necessary to talk about this issue. I just want to say that we should play a wonderful game." If Mr Mourinho thinks my idea is wrong, then I can’t say anything, after all, I am only Arsenal’s manager, not Chelsea’s.”

In the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two head coaches, the press conference is finally over, and then it will soon enter the theme-the FA Cup final, the game is the real finale.

More than half an hour before the start of the game, fans began to enter the stadium one after another. These fans were divided into three categories, one was Arsenal fans, the other was Chelsea fans, and the other was Cardiff locals. Fans, these three types of fans account for at least 90% of all people.

However, the stadium is very serious when selling tickets. When you buy a ticket, you must first report which team you are a fan of before you can sell the ticket to you. This is to separate the supporters of the two teams and prevent accidents. conflict.

And the tickets Wang Li gave Rita were from neutral fans. There are people wearing all kinds of clothes around here. At first glance, it is not an orthodox fan organization. Rita has a good position, sitting in the last row, and a Welsh local female fans are next to each other, but the female fan is dressed very 'fashionably'. She is wearing a T-shirt with a full-body photo of Wang Li printed on it, and a green cloth strip tied on her head that says "Alan, come on!" , support you" note, with Chelsea's team flag painted on his face, holding a small team flag in his hand.

In summary, this is a typical female fan who supports Chelsea because she likes Wang Li.

Seeing this girl's outfit, Rita felt nothing strange. Instead, she was silently happy for Wang Li. Although she knew that Wang Li had a high reputation, this was Wales, and there were such fanatical female fans supporting Wang Li in Wales. Li, it can be seen how wide Wang Li's reputation is in the land of England.

However, she looked at herself, she was still dressed like that, as if she came to hang out on the court, and she didn't mean to watch the game at all, which made her a little embarrassed.

After waiting for a long time, Rita stopped thinking about it, and she turned her attention to the court again, because at this time the players had already started to enter the field.

Chelsea did not wear the traditional blue jersey today, but wore an all-white jersey, while Arsenal still wore a red and white short-sleeved jersey.After the players each led a small caddy onto the field, the two teams stood apart, and the team songs of the two teams began to be played on the court, and the players all sang along.

After that, it was the captain tossing the coin, Chelsea got the kick-off, and Arsenal picked the right half.

For this game, the Sky TV Sports Channel has switched to the stadium two hours before the start of the game. The fans outside the stadium, the adaptive training of the two teams, the press conference before the game, etc. are all reported by them News, when there is no league, they will explain the FA Cup final to the fans in detail.

This time, the commentator was not Graham, but a neutral commentator with no tendency -- Stock Well. At the same time, they also invited two important guests to comment on this football feast.

One is England's legendary star Lineker, who was the top scorer in the 1986 World Cup. In the national team, he participated in 80 games and scored 48 goals.Lineker was fast, smart and had a spell at Barcelona.He has never received a yellow or red card in his life.

Lineker has long been a frequent visitor to Sky Sports TV. He has now acquired Leicester in the British Championship. Although most of the time he has little time, all the media know that he is inclined to Chelsea, because he is now the 21 No. Brunette fans too.

And another guest is from Wales, named Adams, he is the legendary captain of Arsenal.He has only played for the Arsenal club in his life. He played 19 times for the team in 673 years and won 4 league titles and 3 FA Cup titles. The best combination in football.

In 2002, Adams retired from Arsenal. It can be said that he still has a persistent feeling for Arsenal. He is undoubtedly a supporter of Arsenal.

These two special guests are exactly opposite in terms of identity and inclination, which makes the fans watching the broadcast of Space TV very interesting.

At this time, Stock Well had already got the list of players to play, and he began to introduce the rosters and lineups of the two teams to the fans. After reading one by one, he began to ask the opinions of the two special guests.

Lineker said: "From the formation point of view, Chelsea has a 433 formation. This formation is often used by Mourinho when he was in Porto. With the outbreak of Alan Wang in Chelsea, they are already very few. I have used this tactic, but everyone knows that Mourinho is best at 433-433-[-], and when they meet Chelsea’s [-]-[-]-[-], Arsenal’s defeat is certain."

Adams said: "That's not necessarily the case. In this game, Campbell also played. Arsenal's defense is very solid, and Henry is in great form recently. It is not easy for Chelsea to score goals, but it is easy to concede goals."

"I still think Chelsea will win. Allen is so good. It's hard to imagine how God made this kind of player. If Arsenal can win, it must be Allen's end. Other than that , they will definitely lose."

"That kid is really good, but football is about teamwork, not individual competition"

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Before Adams finished speaking, Lineker was pleasantly surprised to see the big screen and shouted: "Sure enough, as I said, Chelsea scored a goal in such a way. It is a daydream for Arsenal to win Chelsea like this! "

At this time, Adams didn't speak anymore. He just widened his eyes and prepared to watch the replay of the goal. If he heard correctly, it was only a few seconds since the start of the game.

In other words, Chelsea scored a goal just after the referee blew the whistle, which is incredible!
