The strongest winger

Chapter 703 global attention
Mourinho was still complaining to the fourth official, but suddenly found that the sound of the scene suddenly became smaller, as if the volume of the stereo was turned down, could it be?

He stopped complaining about referee Webber's 'privileged' overtime behavior, and instinctively looked up at the court.

The shot of Aiello, who is defending the right side, chasing the football immediately attracted Mourinho's attention.

Of course, as early as Mourinho noticed, the camera followed, and the fans in the stands and the Chelsea players on the bench also noticed Aiello chasing the football.

All the commentators in the live studio knew about Aiello's personal style. When Manchester United's half was empty, he would definitely stride the ball towards Manchester United's half and then hit the ball into the empty goal.

It wasn't until Ai Luo, who was chasing the football, slammed his right foot directly on the middle and lower part of the football, that they realized that Ai Luo was not about to run wildly with the ball, but... consciously hanging the goal!
Zhan Jun, who was sitting in the commentary seat, stood up excitedly from his seat again, and shouted to the commentator Mai: "——Ai Luo!! Is this a hanging door???"

At the same time, the other narrators in the live studio also shouted in unison: "--hanging door!!!"

Immediately, everyone's attention was attracted by the football flying in mid-air.

Referee Webber was about to blow the whistle for the end of the game, but he saw that the flight route of the football seemed to be flying directly towards Manchester United's goal...

So he didn't blow the whistle in his mouth, but followed the footsteps of everyone in the audience, watching the football in mid-air.

Van der Sar, who ran to the center circle of the Chelsea half, stopped instinctively, and then looked up at the football in midair. He knew... even if he drove a super sports car and accelerated on the spot, he would not be able to catch up with the football. In addition, the game was already over.

According to his game experience, the main reason why the referee didn't blow the whistle is that the direction of the ball was flying towards the goal.

If the referee Weber blows his whistle and the football flies into the goal, even if you think about it with your toes, you can imagine how he will be sprayed by the media after the game...

Ai Luo kicked the ball with great force, and the football didn't start to fall until it was about 25 meters away from the goal.

"---This ball should be there!!!" BBC commentator Lineker said excitedly as he watched the football begin to fall in mid-air.

All Manchester United supporters know that only God can hinder football, so many Manchester United fans close their eyes and pray, hoping that the football will go above the crossbar or off the post.

It seems that the football is not flying in the air, but is struggling to move forward underwater, making ripples.

The game that was about to end, became tense again when Ai Luo lobbed a shot about 80 meters away from the goal.

If you enter, it will definitely be one of the classic moments of the Premier League!

Therefore, everyone's hearts were raised, and they came to their throats.

Can I go in?
Ai Luo looked up at the football that was getting smaller and smaller from his field of vision, full of anticipation in his heart.

I have scored countless wonderful goals in my career, but I have never had a super long-range lob shot. Thinking of going to the FIFA headquarters in Zurich tomorrow to participate in the FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony, I am full of expectations. Going to Zurich with a hat-trick, will it bring me greater confidence?
As the football gets closer and closer to the goal, there is a direct confrontation between the hearts of the fans of the two sides.

In fact, the result was revealed four seconds after the football left Aiello's right foot.

The football hit the net and landed on the turf.

The entire Old Trafford stadium was silent.

Ai Luo, who scored the goal, didn't realize that he had scored with the lob shot he tried just now until the referee blew the whistle.

Immediately, the referee Weber blew his whistle again, but this time it was two short and one long whistles at the end of the game.

※※※

Everyone at the scene was dumbfounded. It was at least 80 meters from where Aiello stood to Manchester United's goal, right?

But how far away, no one knows.

The specific distance of the lob shot was not known until the data provided by the Premier League data processing company.

84 meters!
Seeing the data displayed on the big screen, Zhan Jun stood on the spot and raised his arms and shouted: "A super lob shot of 84 meters! If I remember correctly, Ai Luo's hanging goal has set a record for the longest goal in the Premier League!!"

Andy Gray, Clive Walker, Lineker and other well-known English commentators all excitedly announced Ai Luo's super lob distance at this moment.

Relieved, Ai Luo quickly took off his jersey and stood there to show off his strong upper body muscles and domineering tattoos.

Webb was not unreasonable this time, and directly ignored Ai Luo's undressing celebration.

Mourinho has returned from the fourth official to the visiting team's command area, celebrating the victory with his assistants Villas-Boas and Faria.

At the same time, I also applaud Ai Luo for this wonderful goal. Since his coaching career, he has never seen a goal from such a distance.

Next, the court polarized.

The away team players smiled contentedly, while the home team players frowned, appearing preoccupied.

Because of Chelsea's victory in this game, the points advantage has been extended to seven points. If they win the make-up match, the points gap will be expanded to ten points!

For the lagging Manchester United, the double-digit points gap is an eternal pain in the heart!
Cristiano Ronaldo, who lost at home, was in a very unhappy mood, lying motionless on the turf, frowning.

At this time, a hand was passed in front of him.

"Get up, the season is still long!"

Cristiano Ronaldo opened his eyes instinctively, it was... his good friend Rooney, but he was not in a good mood, he just stood up along Rooney's right hand, walked towards the player tunnel without saying anything.

Looking at his friend with a decadent face, Rooney shook his head while sighing.

At the same time, after the celebration, Aiello instinctively wanted to show off in front of Cristiano Ronaldo.

After searching for a long time, I saw the lonely back of Cristiano Ronaldo who had gone away, and sighed.

Anyway, I will show up in Zurich, Switzerland tomorrow, let's talk about it then...

There is no doubt that Aiello, who scored a hat-trick at Old Trafford, became the best player on the spot, and among the five best goals updated on the Premier League official website in the evening, Aiello personally accounted for two of them.

※※※

The next day, mainstream European media gave Aiello the headlines.

Of course, the world's mainstream sports media also gave Aiello the headlines.

However, what they focused on was not last night's red-blue battle, nor Aiello's hat-trick at Old Trafford, nor a super lob over 80 meters, but... the grand finale of the 2008 FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony - World Footballer of the Year!

In the past year, I believe that as long as fans or experts who pay attention to the world football trends, they can know who played the best.

That's right!It's Aiello! !

Therefore, it can be said that it is the world's attention!
The headline of the "Times" that day was: Ai's hat-trick world footballer?

"In the 2008st round of the English Premier League in the 2009-21 season, Manchester United lost 1:3 at home to Chelsea. Ai's personal hat-trick helped the team reverse and win the game. Chelsea was also able to draw seven points away from the second-place Manchester United after the end of the league. This will greatly help them in the next schedule..."

"At eight o'clock tonight, FIFA will hold the 2008 annual awards ceremony at its headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland. The most eye-catching event is the finale - World Footballer of the Year! In the past year, Chelsea's star Ai has played for all to see. In the 2007-2008 season, he led Chelsea to seven awards. Winning the third consecutive World Footballer of the Year honor, that is to say, he will surpass Ronaldo and Ronaldinho who won the World Footballer of the Year consecutively in 1996, 1997, 2004 and 2005, and create a new record in international football..."

Former Real Madrid coach and current England national team coach Capello was interviewed by the BBC in London that day. When talking about the most likely to win the World Player of the Year, he said without hesitation: "Of course it is Ai. His performance in the past year is obvious to all. He has 43 goals in the league and 20 goals in the Champions League. He is now the top scorer in the history of the Champions League. Who else is more dazzling than him? Cristiano Ronaldo? Leo Messi? They are great, but there is still a certain gap with Ai! Just like the game that ended last night ...Ai scored a hat-trick and Cristiano Ronaldo only scored one, that's... the difference!"

The chairman of the AFC, Harman, even helped Ai Luo win votes in various Asian countries before the FIFA annual awards ceremony. As the No.1 in Asia today, Ai Luo's reputation in the world football, in a sense, is to give the AFC a face.

Who said that Asia cannot produce world-class stars?
Aiello is!

Bosque, who led Spain to win the European Cup last year, took the initiative to say in an interview: "Fernando and Xavi performed very well, and they also helped Spain win the European Cup, but there is still a big gap compared with Chelsea's Ai! Leaving aside BJ's third place in the Olympics, the seven championships he led Chelsea last season are not negligible! Although I am the head coach of Spain, I still gave Ai the first vote. His performance was the best in 2008, no one!!"

At the time when the world media was the most lively, Aiello and Cristiano Ronaldo followed the club's coaches and officials respectively on a flight from Manchester to Zurich, Switzerland.
