NOVEL WEB Chapter 151
In Yuanhong City, in the villa that Chen Huan bought for his parents,
Chen's father and mother, a pair of honest middle-aged people, smiled and let the relatives who were invited to celebrate the New Year into the villa.
"Xiao Huan has really made it big. She bought such a big villa so easily?" Chen Huan's second aunt's eyes lit up as she entered the villa.
Several other relatives also had words of praise.
"Brother Huan is now the pride of Asia. No one in our school football team wanted to wear the No. 30 jersey before, but now everyone is scrambling for it!" said Chen Huan's high school cousin.
"There happens to be a match between Xiao Huan and Uzbek tonight. It's that Uzbek... Buick what's that?"Mother Chen was halfway through her sentence, but she couldn't remember the full name anyway, and looked at Father Chen for help.
"Uzbekistan."Father Chen said with a smile
"Yes, yes, yes, let's not watch the Spring Festival Gala tonight, let's watch our Dragon Country football match." Other relatives also said
……
The last match of the Dragon National Team's group stage will be held at the Sydney Arena. On the day of the match, all the players of the national team woke up very early.
Although everyone said that they should face today's match with a normal mind, when the day really came, the atmosphere in the team still began to become silent and tense. The Spring Festival
, which is the most important to the Dragon National Team, is related to whether the Dragon National Team can qualify from the group.
"Hehehehe——"Head coach Leeson also noticed the different atmosphere in the team. On the bus to Sydney Arena, Leeson said to his players:"You did very well in the previous two games. We just need to play as well as we did before. Cheer up. We are only one step away from qualifying from the group."
Dragon Country's captain Zheng Jun also stood up and clapped his hands to encourage his teammates:"We have fought so hard until now. We must enter the group stage no matter what. I hope everyone has confidence in their teammates and in themselves!"
Leeson and Zheng Jun's speeches were responded to by their teammates, and what they said did work more or less.
The Uzbekistan national team is one of the four"seed teams" in Asia that have the strength to win the championship officially recognized by the Asian Cup.
Many of its international players are old acquaintances of the international players present.
The Uzbekistan team is mostly composed of players who play in the Dragon Country Super League, the Korean K League, and the Japanese J League, and there are few players who play in Europe.
But these people all have the ability to play in the lower reaches of the five major leagues because they are not just ordinary Asian league players, these people all appear in the team as"foreign aid" in the East Asian league.
And because of the limitation of foreign aid quotas, it fully demonstrates that these people's comprehensive competitive strength is far stronger than the domestic players of the Dragon Country Super League.
And in the historical record of the Uzbekistan team against Dragon Country, the number of games they won against Dragon Country is far greater than the number of games they lost to Dragon Country.
This is the biggest hurdle for Dragon Country before the knockout stage.
And this game is equally important for the Uzbekistan team, and they are bound to burst out with all their strength without reservation in this game.
……
"come on!"
"Come on Dragon Country men’s football team!"
""Fuck Uzbekistan!"
The bus drove to the front gate of Sydney Economic Stadium. Countless Chinese faces around waved small flags in their hands and shouted loudly to the bus.
At this moment, CCTV reporters also appeared in the crowd. They were interviewing the fans.
The reporter found an elderly man with gray hair, and she hurried over."Hello, I am Ma Shushu, a CCTV reporter. Can I interview you for a few minutes?"
"Good." The old fan put down his arm that was waving the flag, adjusted his hair, and smiled stiffly at the camera.
"Are you a native of Australia?"
"No, I just came to watch this Asian Cup. I am already 74 years old this year, and I can't watch many Asian Cups."The old man did not shy away from death and smiled at the camera.
"Have you always been a fan of our Dragon Country?" Ma Shushu asked again
"I have been a fan of our Dragon Country since 1964 and have supported it for so many years without any changes."
"Do you think we can lift the Asian Cup trophy?"
The old man was silent for a moment, then smiled and said,"I don't know, but I hope so. Our Dragon Country national football team has never lifted the Asian Cup champion trophy in history. I hope to see it this time."
……
The stands of Sydney Economic Stadium were covered in red waves, with the flags of the Dragon Country raised high and waving.
When the fans of the Uzbek team entered the stadium with their tickets, they were also surprised.
"Oh my god, we seem to have arrived in Dragon Country." Uzbekistan fans thought so
……
"I don't want to put pressure on you, but today, we have to beat Uzbekistan and enter the knockout round of the Asian Cup. Today, we must not lose, everyone should treat this game as the final of the Asian Cup!"
In the Longguo locker room, captain Zheng Jun shouted to the players
""We must win!" Chen Huan stood up and shouted loudly.
The other players also stood up and waved their arms and shouted loudly:"We must win! We must win!"
……
At this moment, in the locker room of the Uzbek team, there is no complicated tactics on the tactical blackboard, only a photo of a Dragon player.
"Chen, I think he is not unfamiliar to everyone.
Most of you here should have had more or less contact with him in the Dragon Super League.
"The captain of the Uzbek team, Ahmedov, who plays for the Dragon Super Yuanhong team, pointed at Chen Huan's photo and continued,"He is now the most successful player in Asia, no doubt about it.
Although the head coach has repeated it many times before the game, I still have to repeat it again now - keep a close eye on Chen!
Keep a close eye on him, as long as he can't play, our chances of winning the game will be very high!
"
"Is everyone clear?"
""Yes, Captain!" All the players of the Uzbekistan team replied in unison, their deep eye sockets full of determination.
……
"Hey, Akhmedov, how are you?"
""Chen, you are famous now."
In the player tunnel, Chen smiled and greeted his former club teammate Ahmedov.
Other players from both countries were also greeting familiar Uzbek players.
Because many of them played in the Dragon Super League, they would continue to get along with each other after returning to the club after the Asian Cup, so the relationship could not be strained.
