Chapter 188 A bold idea?
On October 10, the Lazio team arrived in Wolfsburg, Germany.

Here is the headquarters of the famous Volkswagen, and the whole city is an out-and-out car city.

Lu Feng's new endorsement brand in the summer - Audi, belongs to the Volkswagen Group.

It's a pity that the spokesperson's driver's license has not been obtained until today...

No way, his Italian has been stuck at the level of "Hello, my name is Lu Feng, I'm from China". It's impossible for him to understand those obscure road traffic laws!
Besides, which rich man can drive by himself?

They will only drive another car! -
Just after staying in the hotel, assistant coach Murelli forwarded a news in the chat group:
"The 2015-man squad for the 23 FIFA Ballon d'Or is out!"

Under the news, he also specifically @Lu Feng:
"Congratulations to our FENG!"

Lu Feng sent a "thank you" first, and then clicked on the news link. Sure enough, his name was on the list.

Last season's Champions League champion Barcelona is of course the biggest winner, and they accounted for 23 of the 6-man roster.

In addition, 5 people from Real Madrid, 3 from Bayern, 2 from Manchester City, 1 from Juventus, 1 each from Chelsea, Paris, Arsenal, and... [-] from Wolfsburg-De Bruyne, has been transferred Will Manchester City.

The Portuguese Super League, Portuguese Cup, and Portuguese League Cup that Lu Feng won in Sporting Lisbon are of course not worth mentioning in the selection of the Ballon d'Or, and the weight of the Europa League is far less than that of the Champions League, but he still Still relying on his almost crazy scoring efficiency, he has become a candidate that the judges cannot ignore. In addition, he also defeated Ronaldo and won the European Golden Boot Award. It is also a logical thing to enter the 23-man squad.

Compared with the Lazio club, China's domestic attention to the "ballon d'or shortlist" is much higher.

Lu Feng is not the first Chinese player to be nominated for the Ballon d'Or. This honor belongs to "Tahiti Ball King" Gong Lei - he was nominated for the World Footballer of the Year in 1993, but everyone knows that the two The meanings are very different!

Although everyone knew that it was impossible for Lu Feng to defeat Messi and win the final trophy, this did not prevent Chinese public opinion from triggering a carnival of traffic!

"Worthy of the name of Asia's No. 23 brother! Lu Feng has been selected into the [-]-man squad for the Golden Globe Awards!"

"Absolute superstar! Lu Feng and Messi lead the 2015-man squad for the 23 FIFA Ballon d'Or!"

"Europa League, Portuguese Super League, Portuguese Cup, Portuguese League Cup, World Youth Championship, Lu Feng has five championships in hand!"

"Five championships, five MVPs, six golden boots, Lu Feng is as honorable as ever!"

"In-depth analysis: The probability of Lu Feng defeating Messi is not zero!"

"Crush Melo! Lu Feng has scored 2015 goals in 158!"

"The biggest shortcoming! The ranking of the national team has dragged Lu Feng past Messi!"

"Vote over the wall! Let the world football see the power of Chinese fans!"

……

Although in theory, Lu Feng does have the possibility of winning the award, but the FIFA Golden Globe Award is not an NBA All-Star purely for entertainment. Fans' votes only account for 25% of the total score, which is not enough to determine the final ownership of the Golden Globe Award .

But the public opinion was completely heated up. This year's Golden Globe Awards suddenly turned into a contest between Messi and Lu Feng.

As for another peerless superstar Ronaldo, it seems to be forgotten by everyone!
This is also something that can’t be helped. In 2015, Real Madrid was empty on all fronts. Ronaldo beat Messi to win the honor of La Liga top scorer, but Lu Feng snatched the European Golden Boot Award. This performance is true. It's hard to convince...

At the pre-match press conference held that night, many reporters mentioned this issue, but Lu Feng kept a low profile as always:
"Whether it's Portugal's domestic competitions, the Europa League, or the World Youth Championship, these platforms I have experienced are not as good as Messi, so there is no way to simply compare goals or assists. But I hope that in this season, I can compare with Messi. Messi competes on the same platform!"

Of course, the reporter did not miss the meaning of his words:
"You mean...you are eager to meet Barcelona in the Champions League knockout round? They are the defending champions, Team Cosmos!"

Lu Feng did not avoid this topic:

"A real man is to defeat the strongest opponent!"

As long as he overthrows Messi in a head-to-head confrontation, what excuse does the Argentine football king have to compete for the golden ball?
Sitting next to him, Wolfsburg coach Dieter Heiking lowered his head and sighed secretly.

Obviously this is our home field, why does no one care about us?
We are a strong team that defeated Real Madrid in the first round of the group stage and drew with Paris in the second round!
Our Wolfsburg... is now the second in the group!
-
"Everyone be quiet, I have a bold idea!"

In the tactical training session in the evening, when the coaching staff and players gathered together, someone made a sound.

Here’s technical analysis coach David Lucarelli, explaining, while working on a laptop on his desk:

"Looking at the current Group A, we won both games and ranked 6st with 1 points, Wolfsburg ranked 4nd with 2 points after a win and a draw, Paris Saint-Germain ranked 1rd with 3 point and [-] loss, Real Madrid lost both games and temporarily came to the bottom... ..."

Looking at Real Madrid with 0 wins, 0 draws, 2 losses and 0 points at the bottom, everyone laughed gloatingly.

Wolfsburg really deserves to be a werewolf. They first relied on their home advantage and beat the Galaxy Battleship 2-0, which had just undergone a coaching change, and then drew 1-1 with Paris in the away game, so that the two giants were not on their own Taking advantage of it made the entire Group A a veritable group of death!
Lucarelli continued:

"If we and Wolfsburg can reach a tacit understanding and take three points in each of these two games, then we will get nine points after four rounds, the Germans will get seven points, and the pressure will be completely transferred to the other two teams. blah blah blah blah..."

Although Lu Feng only understood the first two sentences, he could roughly guess what Lucarelli meant.

This coach really deserves to be an Italian, and he is obviously very familiar with the unspoken rules of the industry.

He just wants to use two "tacit balls" to reduce Lazio's consumption in this competition. Of course, if Real Madrid and Paris can be eliminated at the same time, the road to promotion will be easier in the future.

Lu Feng stabbed Mauricio with his elbow, and the Brazilian defender simply relayed the coach's meaning in Portuguese, which was exactly the same as what Lu Feng had speculated.

Lu Feng shrugged his shoulders.

If he was 15 years old, he would have scoffed at the dirty tricks of these adults.

But his mental age is already over 30 years old, so he will never say "football is sacrosanct".

He just watched Pioli chatting quickly with the other coaches.

Through Mauricio's translation, he also learned that the focus of the coaches' discussion is not "morality", but "whether the Germans will be willing"...

The last coach patted his chest and said:

"Hei Jin was terrified by Lu Feng a long time ago. He should be grateful to us for allowing him to win a game!"

Pioli finally made up his mind:

"Then do it! Anyone else have any comments?"

The vast majority of players agreed. After all, the tough battles before made everyone feel exhausted, and several veteran players couldn't take it anymore. If there is a way to reduce the intensity of the game, it can reduce the consumption of physical energy and reduce the risk of injury. Risk, of course they will not refuse.

Only Lu Feng did not respond.

Pioli glanced at Mauricio and motioned him to translate quickly.

But before Mauricio opened his mouth, Lu Feng asked the head coach in simple Italian:

"If you don't need to win this game, then don't put me in the squad."

Lu Feng pointed at himself, without showing any anger or sarcasm:

"I want to ask for leave."

I am not opposed to this kind of tacit ball, and I also understand the "good intentions" of the coaching team, but...don't let me participate!
If you send me out, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself!

Even if you only give me 3 minutes at the last moment, I am worried that I will help Lazio complete the reversal lore!
