Hope of the whole village [football]

In the midsummer of August, a piece of news was blown up in major media:

[Chinese players landed in the five major leagues again after 10 years! 】

[The Premier League team "King" officially announced the joining of Chinese player Shen Heng! 】

On the forum, the number of comments skyrocketed.

The news of Shen Heng's joining the Kings has long been revealed by reporters. It is said that it has been in operation for several months, but fans only believe in the official announcement.These days, as long as you haven't sat at the table and signed the contract in black and white, you can't believe anything.

Gao Liang replied one: [Finally! ! !Shen Heng! ! !The hope of our whole village! ! ! 】

Gao Liang replied [-]: [I will watch the Kings game in the future! 】

Highlight Reply 30: [It's time to reveal the identity of the Kings fans for [-] years! 】

Highlight reply [-]: [Kings has always been a Championship team, and they succeeded for the first time this year... I have never heard of it before, who can give me some popular science? ? ? ] Below is a skyscraper.

Gao Liang replied five: [This is a team built by workers, and there are a lot of football hooligans. From now on, we will all be socialist hooligans! 】

Highlight reply six: [The Lakers are champions!Wait, no, I went to the wrong set. 】

Gao Liang replied seven: [No, how is the labor certificate resolved?The ranking of the Chinese team is not enough?Isn't it required to be ranked in the top 50 in FIFA? 】

Someone below commented on him: [Yes, the ranking of the Chinese team is too low, but they can appeal and exchange points.Shen Heng made up four points. 】

Gao Liang replied eighth: [The intensity of the Premier League game... Can Shen Heng really get the position? 】

Comments below: [His confrontation is not proportional to his figure, it is quite awesome.He probably wants to try it too. 】

No wonder the fans are too excited, they really waited too long.

The last time he studied abroad in the five major leagues dates back to 2009. At that time, Zhang Dongdong, the star of hope, was successfully signed by the Bundesliga team. However, his study abroad was not smooth. He played 4 times in two seasons, and all of them were warm-up matches. He scored 0 goals. , 0 assists, known as the "Water Fountain Boy", and finally returned to China sadly.He didn't even officially play the farewell game. After the game, he was photographed by the team reporter. His sad expression impressed the Chinese fans deeply.

And this is also the common end of Chinese players after "studying abroad"-unable to keep up, not trusted, not playing, and overall decline. Instead of achieving their goals, they will self-destruct their future.Coupled with the fact that the Chinese Super League is booming and the income of players is rising, it can be very nourishing in China, so everyone is naturally very cautious.

In fact, after Zhang Dongdong returned to the Chinese Super League, some players also went to Europe, such as the relatively weak Eredivisie. However, the facts have proved that even if they go to lower-intensity leagues and clubs, they still cannot play. The reason is that they are too weak. Is it physical or technical.Occasionally there are players who are of a good level and are eager to try Europe. His domestic clubs are not letting go, and they want to fight for the championship. There have been players who publicly stated on weibo that they want to study abroad, but the club still did not let go.During the same period, both Japan and South Korea produced influential players in the world.

But now, Shen Heng said that he was "ready".

It seems that he does judge the situation.He didn't rush to make a decision when the opportunity came, so he was happy and embarrassed.From the age of 18, he was often invited by "rich families" for the Chinese market, but Shen Heng refused them one by one.He played in the Chinese Super League for 8 years, from 18 to 26 years old. In the last two years, he even beat a lot of foreign players to win the Chinese Super League Golden Boot. The total number of goals scored in a single season also broke the historical record.He led the team to two Chinese Super League championships and two AFC Champions League semi-finals.Shen Heng waited until the peak period, and then with further dreams, after very careful consideration, he chose to join this season's newly promoted "King" team instead of those wealthy teams with dazzling halos that make people want to stop.In such a weak team, he has the hope of competing for the main force, which is why Chinese players try again after 10 years.

Of course, everyone knows that even the Kings, who have just been promoted from the British Championship to the Premier League, bought Shen Heng for money.As newly promoted, no one has no money and no confidence, and Shen Heng can help them sell more jerseys, advertisements, sponsorships, and broadcast rights for games.To put it simply, it is probably "What should I do if I have no money? Buy a Chinese!" The most likely thing that will happen is that Shen Heng will copy the way of his predecessors and play for one or two minutes per game to attract Chinese people to turn on the TV.

However, even knowing that Shen Heng's going abroad may be another failure, the fans on the forum are all like chicken blood:

[We don't like it ourselves, who else can we expect? ! 】

【blow!Blow me! 】

[Just close your eyes and blow it! 】

What's more, put the photos of Staunton and Shen Heng together, write on Staunton's head, [false Premier League champion], and write on Shen Heng's head, [real Premier League football champion] Wang】②.

Even fans have heard of the name "Staunton".

He is also 26 years old this year, but he is already the winner of two consecutive Golden Globe Awards.The team "Chariot" and "Kings" are in London together, but last season Chariot won the Triple Crown - the Champions League, the Premier League and the FA Cup, and the Premier League points also broke history Records, 32 wins and 6 draws, without losing a game, and the most powerful Staunton won the top scorer in the Champions League and the top scorer in the Premier League.And in the previous year, its resume was also very brilliant.

Staunton's parents are both professors of history at Cambridge University, but Staunton likes football and did not follow his parents' old ways.However, I don't know if there is some connection with the family environment. Staunton's football style has always had a violent aesthetic.He is best at volleying, with great strength, fast speed, big arc, and tricky position, basically no one can stop him. However, his movements are very stretched and beautiful, which can be said to be pleasing to the eye and make people feel refreshed.

He is the absolute leader of the team.Generally speaking, there are many post-90s in the team, which is very prone to internal strife, but "Chariot" has never had such things. Staunton can calm everyone down, and everyone obeys him.

Staunton has harvested many fans in countries all over the world.In addition to his skills and character, his appearance is indispensable. Many fans say that his appearance is the first in football history.

The fans were not satisfied with the "false Premier League champion" and "real Premier League champion", and selected two photos, one left and one right, for comparison.On the left is a photo of Staunton. In the photo, he is always cold and steady, sitting on the player's bench, bowing slightly, crossing his fingers on his knees, and looking ahead.Fans commented [sluggish eyes] next to his calm sea-blue eyes, commented [stiff expression] next to his cool and handsome face, commented [bewildered movements] next to his crossed slender fingers, and commented on his strong Next to a pair of calves, there is an annotation [limbs with nowhere to put them], and finally come to the conclusion: [false Premier League champion].On the right side of the picture is a picture of Shen Heng. He kicked and shot on the field, and his movements seemed to be very easy.Fans commented [sharp eyes] next to his eyes, [resolute expression] next to his face, [extremely natural movements] next to his fingers, and [full of strength] next to his legs and feet. Confident limbs], concluded: [The real Premier League champion]③.

Shen Heng himself has also seen these blows all over the sky.

Sitting in front of the computer in the study, he felt agitated all over his body, and turned his head to look at the huge poster of Staunton on the wall.

Yes, Staunton is his idol.

…………

Shen Heng's official transfer to the king can be said to be highly anticipated.On the day of the physical examination, countless Chinese football fans stayed up all night waiting for the results of the physical examination, typing while pressing F5:

[Why is the physical examination not over yet? 】

【What kind of profound body does Shen Heng have? 】

Fortunately, everything went well in the end, Shen Heng had no health problems, and the club and the player officially signed the transaction documents.

Coincidentally, at the same time, "Chariot" held a press conference for a warm-up match that just ended.

In the final minutes of the press conference, a Chinese reporter raised his hand to ask a question.She held the microphone and said: "We just got the news that the Chinese player Shen Heng has confirmed to join the Kings. May I ask Mr. Staunton... Shen Heng and you are both 26 years old and are in the Premier League. Do you think he Is it your competitor this year? Chinese fans are discussing the duel between the two of you."

Staunton paused, and after two seconds, he raised the corner of his lips: "Shen Heng? I've never heard of this name." His expression and tone were impeccable, but everyone present felt a little mocking.

If you think about it, Staunton already has a few golden balls, everyone on the earth knows him, and Shen Heng, who is also 26 years old but has no such person in Europe, what big development can he have?To say they are competitors is ridiculous.

Everyone present except the Chinese reporter laughed out loud.

Staunton's answer at the press conference was sent back to China immediately, and everyone on the forum was overwhelmed.

[Is that reporter an idiot? ! 】The fans all tapped on the keyboard, 【Let's blow it up and we're done!It's embarrassing to go abroad! 】

[How many years have passed, and Chinese journalists are still such idiots...]

【Emma, ​​I'm so embarrassed that I itch all over. 】

[This really can't be Lai Staunton, it's too embarrassing for Nima. 】

Shen Heng himself saw it again, and also felt... so embarrassing.

But he didn't think too much about it.

…………

On August 8, the first round of the Premier League.

As expected, Shen Heng came off the bench in the 87th minute, doing nothing and making no achievements, and the number of touches in the game was 0.

On August 8, the second round of the Premier League.

Shen Heng came off the bench in the 84th minute, still doing nothing and making no achievements. The number of touches in the game was 1 due to the opponent's mistakes.Teammates don't trust him at all and don't pass him the ball at all.

Shen Heng worked hard to integrate into the team and brought special products from China, but it didn't work.

Although such a result had been guessed for a long time, fans still couldn't accept it when it happened.

Even the IQY commentator was a little anxious: "Shen Heng, this is not going to work! You only play for a few minutes in each game, and you can't maintain your form at all. You have to find a way to get the main force!"

Another commentator tried his best to be calm: "He has just transferred this season, and it is normal to not have a main force... Now, the most urgent task is to let his teammates trust him, pass the ball to him, and strive for the main position after showing his characteristics..."

On the forum, the fans also became anxious, scolding the coach and teammates, although some netizens continued to ridicule with extreme optimism:

[The first game was played at 87 minutes, and the second game was played at 84 minutes, making progress!If this continues, by the 15th game, Heng Heng will be able to play half of the game!The first half is not over yet!It will start at the end of the season! 】

…………

On August 8, the third round of the Premier League.

This game is very weird.In the warm-up run before the game, the two starting forwards of the Kings were both injured!One of them tore a muscle and the other sprained his ankle while warming up and running while looking back at the one in front of him!The king's coach's roster has only four forwards in total, and one substitute is not enough, so the coach can only let Shen Heng also start.

China Forum is like Chinese New Year, with gongs, drums and firecrackers blaring, and everyone weeps with joy and rushes to tell each other!

[The leading forwards are all injured! ! !Although it's not very good to say this...but...but...so happy! ! ! 】

【First appearance! 】

[What kind of metaphysics is this Nima? ? ? 】

【Novel dare not write like this...】

[Mysterious power from the East! 】

[All the bad luck of the national football team in the past 10 years has been used on Shen Heng...]

At 2000 o'clock in the morning, the number of viewers in the IQY live broadcast room exceeded [-] million!

Top stars may not be able to attract 2000 million people at three in the morning.

Looking at the number of viewers, everyone was actually a little moved.

After so many years, I am tired of scolding Chinese football, but I am still paying attention and looking forward to it.

Shen Heng was not particularly excited about this pie from heaven.

He's ready to play the whole game.

Three minutes, six minutes, 3 minutes, it doesn't make a difference to him - going all out is enough.

This time, he was still not trusted.His teammates didn't pass the ball to him, and he didn't have much chance to hit the goal and score a goal.No matter how good his running position is, his teammates don't pass it to him.

However, this time, Shen Heng tried his best.

He has two huge advantages - speed, physical strength.He was originally a long-distance runner, and his grades were pretty good at the time. Later, because he liked football, he insisted on switching to a winger.At that time, his parents strongly objected and even locked him in the room. However, Shen Heng went on a hunger strike to resist. Finally, his mother finally compromised and agreed with him to change his project through tears.Human hearts are fleshy. In the environment of Chinese football, who would want their children to be scolded and ridiculed every day?

Shen Heng gritted his teeth and ran tirelessly on the court.

His coverage area is very wide.When the king was about to attack, he immediately returned to the penalty area. When the king was about to defend, he turned into a full-back, chasing back and making up defenses.He runs endlessly, and if others don't pass it on, he will grab it by himself!He snatched the ball back countless times, blew the horn of counterattack, or surpassed others by himself, or played the ball directly, and seriously sought opportunities.Shen Heng's extraordinary skills are average, and his ability to get rid of is not strong, but he has shown a broad vision and forward ability when playing the ball.

He is a defensive striker, an offensive guard, and a defensive striker. He plays at a high level and plays like a striker who can't shoot.Finally, the data of the whole game came out, Shen Heng ran 12000 meters in the whole game, the highest among the 22 players, and he was not able to run even among the midfielders!

The head coach also praised him in the post-match press conference.

He didn't have many chances in the penalty area but contributed an assist and made a few good threats.

And the Chinese media turned high again...

Headlines everywhere:

[Chinese players started again in the five major leagues after 4387 days! 】

[Shen Heng contributed wonderful assists to the king's 2:2 draw against a strong enemy! 】

[British "xx" newspaper gave Shen Heng the highest score in the game! ] It’s actually just an anonymous tabloid.

Naturally, the forum is still the old three ways: scolding the coach, scolding teammates, and bragging about Shen Heng.

[This coach has a big problem!Did you say you wanted to pass the ball? ! 】

[Nima teammate is blind.Shen Heng's position is so good! 】

[The newly promoted team of the Premier League is not as good as Beijing xx!Except for No. 10, the level is too low.Especially the two defenders on the 3rd and the 5th are two big colanders!I am Buddha. 】

[Shen Heng's playing is really good. 】

[It's also good to run! 】

[I feel that I can still start after the game. 】

[Don't be a baby upstairs, please, please.We can't start Hengheng, at most we can look at the water dispenser. ] A bunch of people downstairs followed the anti-milk, and they even came up with doggerel.

…………

I don’t know if the crazy anti-milk had an effect. The King’s coach finally discovered Shen’s forward’s defensive ability. With the first forward’s muscle tear still unhealed, he played against the traditional "Big6" in the fourth, fifth and sixth rounds of the Premier League. In the game, instead of the third striker, Shen Heng, the fourth striker, was played. Big6 is too strong, the coach just wants to get a draw, even if the king's opponents in the fourth, fifth and sixth rounds are only four, five or six.He felt that it was more appropriate for Shen Heng to run actively and participate in defense.

In the fourth round, the fifth team in the Premier League had a collective convulsion and did not perform well, which really made the king hold back.In the fifth round, there was a lot of turmoil in front of the king's gate, and he was beaten 4:0 by the fourth.

Shen Heng played out what the king's coach expected of him-active defense, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, and the running distance in each game was more than 12000 meters.

However, Shen Heng was a little anxious.

He is a serious striker, he needs to be able to score goals and score points.

After this round, he will not face Big9 again in the next 6 rounds, and he will not have the chance to start.When the first striker returns from injury after 3 rounds, there will be no possibility of starting.

He must show his scoring ability as a striker, and he must convince his teammates to trust his goal-shooting skills, so as to achieve a virtuous circle, score more goals, and compete for the main position.

To be honest, Shen Heng didn't think he was worse than the third striker, not even worse than the second striker.

As long as his teammates can trust him, he can be contended for.

but……

no chance.

He didn't get a chance to hit the goal with his kick.

No one passed the ball to him.

The teammates weren't unfriendly, they just didn't believe it.In the team match, whenever he scores a goal, the teammates of the Kings will be surprised and praised, but for Shen Heng, these surprises and praises are so harsh, because the teammates are not villains, they are just, From the bottom of my heart, I don't think I can score goals.

They believe that these things require spirituality, and the Chinese do not have spirituality.They are diligent, but not spiritual.

In the IQY video, the number of viewers of the Kings vs Big6 climbed every game. In the sixth game, although it was still live broadcast in the early morning, the number of viewers exceeded 3000 million.

Everyone is waiting for a goal.

A goal that can make the heart that has been calm for a long time jump again.

However, things always backfired.

At 93 minutes, the score was still 1:0.The Kings play 5 guards and 3 midfielders, plus Shen Heng's backcourt is basically 9 vs. 6. With a numerical advantage, he can always defend with the second and the first.

When the fans were desperate, the king got a free kick in the frontcourt.

Those who are more familiar with Shen Heng replied helplessly: [This position, this angle...is Shen Heng's favorite...But Kings will not let him punish, [sad] [sad] [sad]. 】

The second striker is left-handed and not very good at the position.

Captain Moyes of No. 10 stood in front of the ball with Shen Heng.Moyes is the core of the midfielder and is better at set kicks. He is also one of the two kings who have always taken the penalty in this area.The first striker was unable to play in this game, and Moyes' penalty was undisputed, so the coach did not make special arrangements for this area.

Moyes said to Shen Heng: "You act as a cover... run over first, and then I will kick the goal." This is one of the most commonly used free kick tactics in football.The first person ran in front of the ball, tricked the opponent into jumping up from the wall, then evaded to the side, and the second person kicked the goal.

Shen Heng: "..."

Time was limited, and he didn't have time to say anything.Of course, he also knew very well that saying nothing would help.

He has a crazy idea in his head.

This is the king's last chance to attack, and everyone knows it.

And this position is his favorite and best at. He has scored countless beautiful free kicks here.He used to hoist tires and practice free-kicks on empty fields.

he……

The referee ordered the human wall, stepped back, and blew his whistle.

The free throw starts.

Shen Heng decided to take a gamble.

Otherwise, it is doomed not to break the game.

Of course, if you lose the bet, you're finished.However, if you lose the bet, you won't get the ball, and if you don't bet, you won't get the ball. What if...the bet wins?You can turn over.

He took a deep breath and focused on the ball.

The sun shines on the green grass.The grass around the ball swayed gently, revealing layers of cracked gold, which didn't even look like an idle landscape.

Shen Heng's fingers trembled slightly, and he closed his eyes.

He thought of the time and time again he scored goals in this position, and gradually merged with those confident him.

Finally calm.

He strode over.

Moyes is also ready to start.

However, Shen Heng did not carry out the captain's "Shaking" order. He ran to the ball, leaned over, and with a loud "bang", kicked directly to hit the goal!

Just as Shen Heng expected, the opponent's wall didn't expect Shen Heng to hit the door at all, thinking it would be Moyes, and they didn't even respond.

The ball draws a very beautiful arc, it seems to be going to the sky, but it falls rapidly in front of the goal, and hangs straight to the dead corner on the left side of the goal in an incredible way!

In the 93rd minute, Shen Heng absolutely tied Big6! !

The Chinese Internet exploded immediately! The "Blowing Heng" operation has reached its peak!

[Ah, ah, first Premier League goal! 】

[From loss to draw!This ball has points!It's so important! 】

【beautiful!It's awesome! 】

[I'll blow this ball up! ! ! 】

【Chinese Koi! ! 】

[Heng Sweeps Thousands of Armies: Describes that Shen Heng kicks and shoots, and thousands of troops and horses can't stop it. 】

[Heng Xing Domineering: Describe Shen Heng's traveling route as very, very mighty and domineering. 】

[Talent Heng overflows: Only Shen Heng can describe talent. 】

[Funny Hangsheng: Only Shen Heng can describe the excitement of the game. 】

[Flying Heng misfortune: Describe Shen Heng kicking the goal, it was a disaster for the xx team. 】

[Man Heng is unreasonable: Shen Heng, who described violently kicking the door, has no solution. 】⑤

[What about the constant flow of juice and the constant flow of desire? 】

[Fork upstairs. 】

Because Shen Heng absolutely tied the opponent, the teammates were all stunned at first, and then came to celebrate and hug Shen Heng!

Shen Heng was the first to go to the captain Moyes who "cooperated" with him when he hit the free kick just now.Moyes hugged him too, but there was no smile on his face.

Only Moyes knew that it was not a tactic at all, but Shen Heng made his own decision.

He said nothing, but was furious.

Then the final whistle sounded, and the score was determined one to one.Shen Heng stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, followed into the players' tunnel, and then, standing in front of the locker room, he recited the script he had just prepared before finally pushing open the door of the locker room.

The author has something to say:

The team in the article is empty, otherwise it feels weird... a certain player orz will always be substituted.

①②③⑤: Refer to Chinese players logging into La Liga fans to post at the beginning of the year.It's impossible for a competitive essay not to draw material from reality at all...but I'll mark it!

④: David Beckham, who practiced free kicks with tires.

The most famous defensive forward should be Dirk...

In fact, it is difficult for Asians to gain a foothold in the Premier League, or they cannot get a position, or they are injured and truce every day... The confrontation in the Premier League is too fierce, and Sun Xingmin is very strong.As for Hengheng, he can rely on the golden finger given by his mother.Strong, but also resistant to beatings!In addition, the body is not easy to say, Aguero and Mata are only 1 meters.
