Chapter 311 This matter is not just gossip
Stamford Bridge Stadium, London, England.

In the ninth round of the No.20 Premier League, Chelsea's home game against Bolton is about to start.

It's still early.

The fans who came to watch the game were still standing in front of and around the stadium. The Chelsea players had just entered the stadium by bus. They had to rest in the locker room for more than ten minutes, and then went to the field to warm up. Coach Mu Rinho went to the press conference early.

Due to the recent two seasons, Chelsea has had a lot of personnel coming and going, the main lineup has changed a lot, the team has become very mixed, there are many small groups, and many players can't speak English, so they naturally formed a corresponding group , Pure English players are also a group, such as Terry and Lampard are a combination, whenever they are in the dressing room before and after the game, the two often get together.

The two sat on the side to rest, Lampard was listening to music, Terry took out two bottles of drinks and handed Lampard a bottle.

"Here, try!" Terry shook Lampard's shoulder.

Lampard took the drink and didn't pay attention at first, but when he saw the square Chinese characters on the drink, he asked strangely, "Where did this drink come from?"

"Huaxia."

"Huaxia? It's rare." Lampard looked at the English explanation above, "Where did you get it? Will there be no problem?" can pass.

The things that professional athletes eat must be carefully tested. Some foods that are considered legitimate by ordinary people may fail the urine test after eating.

Professional football is even better in this regard. The urine test for football players is not as strict as the Olympic Games. After all, a football match is too long. Unless it is absolutely prohibited and highly effective stimulants, other ordinary things are difficult to have much Effect.

Except for very important games, other regular leagues generally only conduct random inspections of a small number of players.

"No problem, otherwise it wouldn't be here."

Terry pointed to a sign on the drink bottle, "Remember the sheep and sheep football training team? The one that helped Manchester United train before, this is their drink! It is said to taste good. Prole gave me a few bottles before the game. "

"...?"

Lampard was a little confused.

"It's supplied internally, you can't buy it in the market, and it's very expensive." Terry said with a smile, "According to Proll, this bottle costs about sixty pounds."

"sixty?"

"Correct."

"you sure?"

Lampard was quite surprised, even for them, a bottle of drink of tens of pounds is a bit expensive.

This is a 'luxury' drink!

Lampard's hand holding the drink was even harder, and he opened the bottle and tasted it.

"How?" Terry asked.

Lampard ignored Terry, just sat there thinking about it, with a very relaxed expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" Terry asked.

After about half a minute, Lampard took a long breath and said in surprise, "This taste...is a little bit sweet, but it doesn't seem to be sweet. If I were to describe it, I think it probably looks like I just had an intense exercise, and then went to the bathroom to take a hot bath... really comfortable!"

"what?"

Terry was a little confused, but he was still attracted by Lampard's description, so he also opened the bottle and took a sip, and began to reminisce.

"This taste is really special! I don't even know how to describe it, but I feel very comfortable after drinking it."

"Yeah, no wonder it costs dozens of pounds."

"I think I should ask Proordo for some, or buy some myself. I don't need other drinks in the future."

As the two talked, they seemed to be 'smoking a big cigarette'. You drank it one by one, and when the assistant coach called to warm up, half of it had already been drunk.

Only then did they realize that they should not drink too much, otherwise their stomachs would be filled with water after a while, and wandering around would definitely affect their performance.

----

After the warm-up was over, Mourinho returned to the locker room and began to make the final arrangements for the game. Every player was very serious, and most of them were taking a break.

In his busy schedule, Terry forgot about it.

Lampard did not forget, he picked up the remaining half bottle of drink, handed it to assistant coach Boas, and told him, "If I want to drink water during the game, you can give this to me."

Boas was stunned for a while, looked at the half bottle of drink, and thought that Lampard would really save money, and drinking water during the game did not cost him money, as for saving the half bottle of drink?

Terry looked over and said mockingly, "That's a few dozen pounds."

"Dozens of pounds?"

"Don't you know? It was given to me by Proor. It's very valuable."

Boas didn't figure it out until the end, but he remembered Lampard's advice.

Terry didn't care at all. The taste of the drink was good, but Proor gave him several bottles. The trash can, with a look of complete indifference.

"Waste!" Lampard commented like a spit.

Terry shrugged. "You're just being mean."

Lampard doesn't think he's stingy. Naturally, drinks worth tens of pounds should be cherished. The main thing is that he only has this small half bottle. He also hopes that he can drink something with such a unique taste when he is thirsty during the game.

Soon the game started.

Recently, Lampard's state has been a bit average. Leaving aside his defensive performance, his last goal was five league rounds ago.

Although he is only a defensive midfielder, Lampard has scored a lot of goals. For example, he helped Chelsea score [-] goals in the league last season, averaging one goal in three games. Relatively speaking, If there is no goal in consecutive games, the efficiency seems a bit low.

Lampard's performance in other aspects is not bad. For example, he has an assist in the past five rounds, and his defensive performance is also good. It’s not how strong his desire to attack is, but that the team’s midfield needs his offense and even his goals. On the defensive end, his role is not so prominent, because Makelele’s ability is also very strong. In the summer, the team introduced a strong midfielder Essien, and as long as he performed well on the defensive end, his main position would even be unstable.

Under these factors, Lampard showed a strong desire to attack just after the game started.

----

Bolton will never neglect the defense of Lampard, but even if they pay attention, they never expected that Lampard's state is so good.

Just 3 minutes into the game, Lampard knocked on Bolton's door with a 23-meter long shot.

This seems to be just the beginning.

Next, Lampard seems to be interpreting the meaning of an all-round midfielder. No one can break through him on the defensive end, and he repeatedly creates threats to Bolton on the offensive end.

"This is Lampard!"

"He is an absolute genius on the field, and it is difficult for any player to compare with him!"

"Bolton can't do anything about Lampard!"

"Lampard is in great form today! It's unbelievable! The game has just begun!"

"..."

Many people are praising Lampard's performance, but in fact, Lampard doesn't know why he is in such a good state. In the past, he always had to adapt for a period of time before he could enter the game state, but today he You don't even need to get used to it, you just feel in good shape when you come up.

However, as other players have also adapted to the game, Lampard's performance has weakened, but he is still the most watched player on the field.

In the 71st minute of the game, Lampard knocked on Bolton's door again with a header.

It was also the second goal of the game.

After Drogba scored the third goal for Chelsea, the game ended 3-0. Drogba's goal can only be said to be the icing on the cake, and Lampard's performance is the most watched.

Many media also began to praise Lampard.

After the game, the head coach Mourinho praised Lampard himself, "He is a reassuring player. Even at the beginning of the game, he showed a very good competitive state, which may be against him. It’s about being fully prepared for the game.”

Among the many praises, Lampard recalled his performance and thought carefully.

In the usual games, it took him a while to get used to warming up fully, but after playing today, he felt that he seemed to have relaxed, and he quickly threw himself into the game.

It was nothing when the game was going on, but in retrospect, it always feels a little weird.

"John, how do you feel?" Lampard asked Terry.

"what you mean?"

"The game begins."

"At the beginning, yes, I felt very good at the time, and I wanted to go forward to score goals! Unfortunately, I am a defender." Terry felt a little regretful.

This is a very normal sentence, but Lampard sounds a little weird because he feels the same way.

why?

Lampard suddenly remembered the bottle of drink. His first reaction was not to admire the efficacy of the drink, but to be dripping with cold sweat.

"It's a good thing I didn't get a urine test today!" Lampard thought.

On the way back to the club with the team, Lampard was thinking about this matter. After the club was disbanded, he did not go home directly. Instead, he went to the medical room and asked the team doctor to give him a simple urine test.

"Why?" asked the team doctor.

"I feel like I can drink something that has a stimulant function."

"is it?"

The team doctor didn't take it seriously, after all, the game was over, but he still agreed to Lampard's request, took some urine and started testing.

Lampard didn't sleep well that night.

The next morning, he arrived at the club more than an hour earlier. When he entered the medical room, the team doctor hadn't arrived yet. He waited for more than ten minutes before the team doctor arrived.

"Are you here to get the results? No problem, you are normal."

Here are the results.

Lampard took a long breath.

After more than half an hour, Lampard waited for Terry in the locker room. He told Terry about it. That bottle of drink?" He said as he took out a bottle of Yangyang 'refreshing' sports drink from his bag.

"Correct."

"Haha." Terry laughed loudly, "Plore gave it to me. Do you think he will harm me?" After detailed testing, it will be used by athletes, and Proor focuses on this work.

After hearing this, Lampard felt that he was thinking too much, but he still said, "Maybe this bottle of drink does not have any prohibited ingredients, but I think it has something to do with it. Maybe you can try to feel it in the next game. "

Lampard is a 'good guy', he will not let himself alone, so he disclosed the news to other teammates.

Soon the whole team knew.

Not to mention whether Yangyang's 'refreshing' sports drink is helpful to the game, the unique taste alone can attract everyone.

The Chelsea club 'friendly' collected ten boxes, that is, one hundred bottles of drinks, which were immediately scrambled by the players.

"Plor, pick some more."

"Yes, I'm willing to pay for it. Buy more, and I'll buy a few boxes to keep at home."

"I think so too."

Yangyang's 'refreshing' sports drink is relatively expensive, with an official price of about [-] pounds, but for these stars with a weekly salary of tens of thousands of pounds, it is nothing at all, and their daily salary is enough to buy Up to a dozen boxes.

----

In Houston, USA, the Rocket Club also had a similar situation.

After a few training sessions, McGrady became an absolute supporter of Shen Yang. When he heard that the Yangyang Group had started to produce beverages, and the club bought a few cases of beverages in a "friendship" manner, the beverages that no one cared about were immediately bought by him. Moved halfway.

Alstom, who was born in streetball, is another main force of the Rockets. He has a very good relationship with McGrady.

That afternoon, when McGrady asked someone to carry a few boxes of drinks away, Alston was puzzled, and he jokingly asked, "Tracey, are you a courier yourself?"

McGrady cherished a few boxes of drinks. He protected the things first, and then said, "You want it? Go to Carter, there are more."

"The club?"

"Yeah, I only took half of it."

After McGrady finished speaking, he leaned closer and whispered, "It's free now, but it won't be sure in the future."

Alston smiled and praised, "You actually took advantage of this little?"

McGrady shot him a contemptuous look.

Alston didn't take it seriously, he completely took it as McGrady's funny gossip, and was going to tell his teammates tomorrow, when he saw Yao Ming carrying a box of drinks.

"Yao? You took this too?"

Yao Ming is not as thick-skinned as McGrady, he just moved a box and left, "Yeah, there are still there, I think you should go and see."

Alston was a little confused, but the two giants of the team—McGrady and Yao Ming both left with drinks in person. He felt that this matter was not just a small gossip.
