Fame with a ball

Chapter 66 OPR Now, Marseille

The short car trip really gave Lin Zhigao a good idea to solve Huang Bowen's whereabouts, that is, to recommend him to the Crystal Palace!

Speaking of Crystal Palace Football Club, Chinese fans must be no strangers, because the old international Fan Zhiyi and Sun Jihai have both played for this team.But Lin Zhigao wanted to recommend Huang Bowen to go here, not only because he felt that a Championship club would be more conducive to Huang Bowen's growth, but also because Lin Zhigao's mentor Warnock is currently working as the head coach of this club!

The so-called people in the DPRK are good at handling things.There are not many clubs that Lin Zhigao knows and is familiar with, and there are only a few of them - Juventus, Arsenal, Barcelona, ​​and his former club, Queens Park Rangers.

The previous wealthy clubs all have their own scouts and a formal player selection mechanism. If Lin Zhigao came to the door to recommend himself when he was not famous, there is still a certain chance of success.But now he is recommending other young players to the club as a middleman-which giant will sell his face?Let's talk about it when he becomes a player at the king level!

As for Queens Park Rangers, they cannot be considered either.One is that the Malaysian who is the owner of the club is too ruthless in his actions. He himself had no intention of leaving at the beginning, but he was sold at a high price by this money-grubbing ghost, and he directly left Warnock, who had the best relationship with Lin Zhigao. This move made Lin Zhigao feel a little cold about this club.

Second, it is because even in Serie A, Lin Zhigao often pays attention to the information of the Premier League. He knows that Queens Park Rangers have performed extremely poorly this season, which is exactly like two of the team's amazing performances last season. Not only did he lose to Manchester United in the Charity Shield, which is known as the opening game of the Premier League, and was abused 5:0, but after the start of the league, he almost finished last round, and the Champions League trip was completely reduced to other teams. The team's scoring tool has been unanimously predicted by the media in the UK as "next season will definitely be relegated."

Lin Zhigao couldn't help feeling worried about his friend Bosroyd who was still in the team, but when he talked to the other party a few days ago, Bosroyd's mood was not as depressed as Lin Zhigao imagined, but very optimistic .

Bosroyd said that although the team's performance in the past six months has been a bit bad, the whole world is working hard to play football. The bad situation is probably because the new head coach came too hastily, causing the team's tactics to always make mistakes. Because of this, the situation will probably improve in the second half of the season.Moreover, even if the team is relegated this season, they will work hard to climb to the Premier League next season!

Lin Zhigao felt a little sad when he heard it, but seeing that his old friends were so positive, he didn't say anything to the other party.

Bosroyd also said that the fans of Queens Park Rangers miss Lin Zhigao very much, and because the team's performance in the Champions League is too shameful (four consecutive losses, and all of them are disastrous losses)-the fans They were all mentally prepared, thinking "We are going to the Champions League to play soy sauce OR we are going for the TV dividends of several million euros. The victory and defeat are like floating clouds to me hahaha", but!Seeing such a horrible "soy sauce tour", they were still angry!

Small leaflets were distributed on the streets, calling on fans in the Hammersmith area to raise funds to buy the team from that money-grubbing Fernandez. Not to mention, the fans even organized themselves. Wearing a unified jersey, with a unified banner and slogan, they kept shouting in the stadium: "Malaysians get out of QPR!" "British teams should have British bosses!" Some fans miss Lin Zhigao, while singing the new team song of Queens Park Rangers, shouted: "You sold Lin to cause all this!"

The boycott of the fans finally made the club owner Fernandez a little restless. He has not lived in London for a while, and some newspapers published news that he is indeed approaching some businessmen to plan to sell Queens Park Rangers!

"It would be great if we could get rid of this vampire!" Lin Zhigao sincerely congratulated Bosroyd.

"We are all discussing, if we can really drive him away, we will suggest him to invite Warnock back when the new boss arrives!" Bosroyd said happily.

Warnock signed a contract with Crystal Palace not only for one or two years, but for a three-year contract at once.Although he expressed doubts that he would return to Queens Park Rangers in the future, Lin Zhigao felt that it was always right for his friends to expect such things.

It's just that Lin Zhigao hopes that the Rangers will change their owners. If they want to be kicked back to the British Championship and start all over again, it will be too hard for the Rangers fans.

Closer to home, the more Lin Zhigao thinks about it, the more he thinks that Crystal Palace is more suitable for Huang Bowen-as a Championship club, Crystal Palace is also very strong, and it is more suitable for Huang Bowen now.Moreover, Crystal Palace has already received Fan Zhiyi and other Chinese players. Whether it is the club executives or the fans, they should have a higher acceptance of Huang Bowen, who is also Chinese.

Now the only thing left is when to call Warnock to discuss this matter. Lin Zhigao believes that his ambitious teacher Warnock will not reject Huang Bowen, who is of good quality, low price and good strength. As for the issue of labor certification ...Huang Bowen, who has two resumes in Beijing Guoan and South Korea's Jeonbuk Hyundai, and is also the main player of the Chinese national team, should not be difficult to get this thing.

……

On November 11th, he hurried back to Turin. After a few days of training with the team, Capello sent Lin Zhigao in the 15th round of Serie A on the 20th when Juventus played against Palermo in order to test the new tactics. In the starting lineup.

Palermo has only been promoted to Serie A since the 04-05 season. It can be regarded as a team that is sometimes weak and sometimes strong.Why do you say that, because when they are weak, any team can beat Palermo and win by a big score.But when you carelessly think that Palermo is easy to bully, it can get excited and bite you like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang or a bullied rabbit.

There are only a handful of glorious battles in Palermo. They participated in the UEFA Cup in 06-07, once drew Inter Milan 1:1, and defeated Juventus at home.

Football has never been a sport where you can win if you are strong. On the field, anything can happen, and any ending can happen. Except for God, probably no one can accurately predict the victory of every game with failure.

In the game against Palermo, Capello did not dare to relax. He sent all the main players of the team-of course, not all the main players were so terrifying from the beginning to the end, but half of the main players and half of the substitutes in the first half Players come out, and the other half of the main players are replaced in the second half.

In fact, Juventus has another UEFA Champions League group game to play in five days, and they still have to fly to Marseille, France to play an away game. The team is composed of players, but because the Palermo team is very different, Capello decided to let the main players of the team play in rotation and go to the home court of Palermo, Sicily to experience it.

What do you know?

The pink jerseys worn by the Palermo players?

Yes, Palermo in Serie A is indeed the same as Espanyol in La Liga. They are the only two clubs that often use pink as the color of the home team jersey, but this definitely does not mean that their style of play and fans are as docile as the pink bunny girl And cute.

On the contrary, these fans and jerseys wearing pink jerseys can create a truly terrifying "devil's home" atmosphere.

At least Lin Zhigao thinks so now.

Being a guest in Palermo is definitely the scariest home atmosphere he has experienced so far, the scariest, and there is no one yet.

Because their fans are so crazy... Maybe the word crazy can't be exhausted.

In European football leagues, when it comes to where there are the most football hooligans, many people may first respond: England.But Lin Zhigao, who has been in the UK for almost two years and played in a professional league for another year, can now responsibly add one point to this, that is: Southern Italians, the further south the fans become, the more extreme they become.

Where are the fans who can drive a car after the players of the visiting team to boo them all the way to the stadium from the moment they get off the plane when the team ushers in a home game, acting like a group of speedsters?Palermo fans can.

Where are the fans who seem to have endless passion, howling since before the start of the game, and still making loud noises after 90 minutes?Palermo fans.

There are fans there who will personally insult the players of the away team in various ways during the game, put up banners and slogans, spit out all kinds of dirty words, and even go to the side of the court and shout at the players of the away team, "I will kick your luan balls!" What about the visiting team winning?Still a Palermo fan.

What's even more amazing is that they are not polite to their own team's players: In the No. 204 minute of the second half, a Palermo defender intentionally fouled Pepe in the penalty area and was awarded a penalty to Juventus by the referee. A penalty kick, the successful scoring of this penalty kick directly affected the result of the game, and Juventus narrowly secured the victory 1:0 in the end.

As a result, on the way back to the locker room after the game, the poor Palermo defender was surrounded by a few extreme fans and spat at him, throwing a mineral water bottle on his head...

Afterwards, everyone in Juventus learned that the defender was a foreign signing. After coming to Palermo, his performance was mediocre, and he was not very popular with Palermo fans. Therefore, after the team failed because of him, part of the excitement The Palermo football hooligans directly attacked him personally, but fortunately they were pulled away soon, and the police also captured the football hooligans back to the station, and declared that in the future, all Palermo home games will be played. These people will be banned from entering.

The riots frightened all Juventus without even taking a break. After the game, they got on the bus and went to the airport to fly back to Turin.On the plane, a group of people still had lingering fears about the scene just now, so they started discussing again.

Only then did Lin Zhigao know that the Palermo family is not the only one with crazy fans!In the Serie A clubs, the fans of the Roma duo, Naples, and all the clubs in Sicily have this virtue, no, they are all so crazy.

"Thirty thousand Palermo fans can create an atmosphere at home that can only be created by other teams' 5 fans." Capello commented when he was about to get off the plane: "I am very happy to see that you are not alone. Not being scared at the Barbera Stadium, for the games at the Verodorón (at Marseille) in five days and at the Camp Nou (at Barcelona) in 20 days, I hope you will perform as you did today."

……

The Velodron Stadium is the largest club stadium in France. It used to be one of the venues for the French World Cup. It originally had a capacity of 6 seats. Since the Rugby World Cup in 07, it has been expanded to accommodate 8 fans watching the game at the same time.

About 5000 Zebra fans came to Marseille from Turin to watch the game.Juventus has many fan groups, some of which are official, but most of them are organized spontaneously by fans. For this away game, many fans came in groups.

On the day of the game, Juventini wearing black and white jerseys arrived at the Velodron Stadium earlier than the Marseille fans. They wandered in groups, holding various banners and slogans, or large cartoons. On the periphery of the stadium, they either took pictures, or talked while looking at the road, waiting for the arrival of their own team.

Juventus fans attach great importance to this game. In fact, as early as a month ago, the largest private fan group of Juventus Club began to recruit fans who came to Marseille to watch the game with the team to sign up.

The fan groups of large European clubs are generally very advanced. They have voluntary management, who will be responsible for organizing fans to watch games together, and will call on fans to make tools to cheer for the team (such as banners and curtains). They will manage the order during the game, organize fans to sing team songs together, and when the team has away games in other places or even other countries, these groups will also help fans book tickets, planes and trains, so that they can travel together.

The reason why Juventini attach so much importance to this game is because the outcome of this game is directly related to the ranking of the club in the group.

Currently in Group H, the qualifying situation is still somewhat stalemate.

Barcelona ranks first with 9 points, Juventus has two wins, one draw and one loss in the first four games with 7 points, Marseille has two wins and two draws with 8 points, and Pilsen has the least points with only four points.Except for Pilsen who is almost hopeless to advance, the three clubs of Barcelona, ​​Marseille and Juventus are actually biting the points very tightly.In the fifth group match, Barcelona vs. Pilsen, Juventus vs. Marseille, the previous game was the clearest. It is almost certain that Barcelona will continue to maintain the group's first advantage. Getting out is crucial.

If Juventus can beat Marseille, then they will accumulate 10 points, Marseille 8 points, Juventus will temporarily maintain the second place in the group.So in the last group match, as long as Juventus can draw Barcelona, ​​or draw Marseille to Pilsen, Juventus will qualify with Barcelona.

And what if Juventus lose to Marseille in this game?Then Marseille will directly score 11 points. Even if Juventus defeated the powerful Cosmos team at Camp Nou, it has nothing to do with them. Marseille will join hands with Barcelona to enter the knockout round.And in the unlikely event that Juventus really loses this game, but wins Barcelona again, and Marseille wins Pilsen in the last game, this old Ligue [-] giant may even have a kick. Kicked over Barcelona, ​​fell through the glasses of countless people, and entered the knockout round with the first place in the Champions League group stage for the first time in history!

So this game really worried the Juventus fans. Even before the stadium security started to check the tickets to let them in, they spontaneously sang in Italian outside the stadium that the Juventus club was founded. various team anthems, or the national anthem of Italy.

This scene surprised several Chinese reporters who also came outside the stadium ahead of time, but were waiting for the arrival of both teams to interview and take pictures.Reporter A said with emotion to reporter B: "The fans in Europe are really enthusiastic. Even if the team goes to another country to play, they will go with them regardless of the weather. But in our country, the attendance rate of Chinese Super League games is sometimes not half. arrive."

Reporter B immediately sneered at him and said: "Can the Chinese Super League team compare with other Serie A giants? Look at their results, and then look at ourselves. The fig leaf is almost gone."

Reporter A shook his head and said, "It's not about the football skills, it's just about the enthusiasm of the fans. European fans follow the team to watch the game across the whole continent, and take out train tickets and air tickets for hundreds of thousands of euros. And that set of tickets, a It costs more than 1000 euros for the season, right? There are also authentic jerseys and so on, which are also a lot of money. Most of our domestic fans just watch the games online, and scold them when they are interested I would not be willing to spend a dime for a call to the Football Association."

"Okay, you're getting into this again. Don't you know that Europe's welfare system is better, and their income is higher than ours? The euro is in the hands of others, which is no different from the renminbi in our hands. Don't worry about the exchange rate. Mix it up." Reporter B said: "But people of our generation are stingy about spending money on football, but my dad's generation is different. The reason why I can be a sports reporter is because I watched football games with my dad when I was young. , you know, from the age of four or five to the age of fourteen or five, Zhou Zhou and my dad went to the field to watch the game, and bought countless jerseys, until now my bedroom is—"

Before he could finish his words, bursts of cheers erupted around him, covering up all the voices. Reporter B was thinking about what happened. Reporter A suddenly pulled his sleeve excitedly and shouted: "Quick! Camera! The Juventus bus is coming!"

The author has something to say: Some children’s shoes asked what the picture I put in the previous chapter meant. There are five stars in the first row, and the following is what other stars look like in their eyes. In fact, the highlight is Balotte Lina - In Balotelli's eyes, Messi, Ronaldo, and Pepe Alves are all monkeys, but in his eyes he is God.As for the other four, it seems that Balotelli is a little kid who is peeing-Bashen's world is good 2B. --

Others such as "Messi's Ronaldo is Runtu", "C Ronaldo's self is tall, rich and handsome, Ronaldo's Messi is Lin Miaoke..." "Alves' Messi is superman" "Pepe The self in my eyes is Schwarzenegger" and so on, after the explanation is over, there is no point in laughing, everyone HIGH.
