Grassroots Glory

Vol 2 Chapter 144: Golden Boy

Although Zhou Tiancheng felt a little strange, but Ming Tao refused to elaborate, he would not ask. After returning to the field, he specifically explained to the game's starting forward Altentop: "Khalil, pay attention to the opportunity, the goalkeeper opposite is very powerful, we were eliminated by him last season. The game is over."

  Altentope heard this sentence, looked back consciously in the direction of Ming Tao, then waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just a newcomer who doesn't show up often."

   "That is, Zhou, don't be too nervous. We can win."

   "Ah, how do you know he doesn't show up often? I don't seem to have told you about him?"

  Altentop asked back: "Week, what are you doing in addition to training these days? You don’t read the news? Their original goalkeeper Robert Enk died in a car accident. You don’t know?"

  Zhou Tiancheng's eyes enlarged slightly: "Ah? I really don't know, no wonder..."

   Thinking of this, Ming Tao's reaction just now is not difficult to understand. Although the relationship between the bench and the main force is a competitor, especially the particularity of the goalkeeper position, the competition is even more fierce. But after all, they are teammates. With this opportunity to play the main role, anyone who has normal views and emotional tendencies should not be happy.

Hannover is currently ranked 15th in the standings and is on the edge of the relegation zone, but after the opening, they took the initiative to attack Schalke 04, and even the central defender actively invested in the attack. A long shot hit the outside of the column.

  From the scene of the opening two or three minutes, I can't see that this is a team on the edge of the relegation zone.

   This contrast may only have one explanation——

"It's not hard to see that Hanover held breaths up and down. The sudden death of the main goalkeeper Enke inspired the fighting blood of the whole team. Schalke was really unlucky. At this time, he encountered Hanover fighting for relegation. They must be The opponent is fighting for the goal. What could be more consoling to the teammates than fighting the defending champion?"

  In the stands of the HDI Arena, Hanover fans sang the team song while holding the sign of remembering Enke to cheer for the team.

   As the saying goes, the barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes. Schalke 04 encountered such an opponent who dared to compete with them, and did not show how obvious the advantage is. Slomka discharged a 4-4-1-1 formation today. He used regional defense in the midfield and restricted Zhou Tiancheng's running and passing with a small range of pockets. At least in the first half, this trick was very effective. Schalke's offensive lacked continuity. It was cut into countless small fragments to fight each other. There was no too good chance. The end of the half is still a result of 0:0. .

However, in the first half, the opponent was one kilometer more than Schalke 04 in per capita running. Only 15 minutes later in the second half, his physical fitness began to decline significantly, and he gradually failed to keep up with Schalke's midfield transmission rhythm. The chances of starting to increase, but Altintop's two consecutive turns and volleys in the penalty area were quickly resolved by Ming Tao. Zhou Tiancheng's front-door grab from the Asamoah side pass was also blocked by Ming Tao. Out.

  The five-minute Ming Tao was the most dazzling person on the field. The home fans did not hesitate to give their applause to Ming Tao. At least the performance of "Enke's successor" in these few minutes inspired them.

Duan Xuan of the Beijing Studio was even more excited: "Good Mingtao! Instructed in imminent danger, these few wonderful performances are enough to increase his weight in the head coach Sloemka. Ah, cultivating a top Bundesliga such as Zhou Tiancheng in Schalke, which is regarded as a quasi-first midfielder in European football. Now, is there another future door **** starting to sprout? The future is expected, haha!"

   But this is something to say, in order to win the game in front of him, Magath replaced Jiang Hao in the 70th minute.

When assistant coach Hollerbach called on Jiang Hao to warm up, he turned around and secretly asked: "Felix, you are really determined to abandon Kevin? How to say this is also a player who has been selected for the national team. Is the bench too wasteful?"

Magath did not feel regretful: "Jiang's condition is very good. The last game has proved that I only use this standard. You think in terms of Kevin's high-intensity training performance over the past few days, who will he compare with Jiang? More qualified to play?"

   "Uh... that is of course Jiang." Hollerbach also admitted.

  Hanover 96 can stick to the final stage is already a big miracle, but they still can not stick to the end.

In the 78th minute, Rakitic's long-range peripheral shot hit central defender Vinius and rebounded to Asamoah's feet. Asamoah volleyed voluntarily and the ball flew from Mingtao's palm. Dead end.

In the eighty-sixth minute, Jiang Hao also scored a goal immediately. Zhou Tiancheng picked a pass for an offside offshoot. Jiang Hao knew Ming Tao's attack rhythm well, and used the rhythm to accelerate past him. .

  After the game, Zhou Tiancheng went to Ming Tao and said with apology: "Xiao Tao, I'm sorry, I don't know what happened to your team. I shouldn't have asked you that way."

   "Brother Cheng, it's nothing, you don't know, let's say the team is slowly accepting it now."

   "Although you played the game by coincidence, this is God's will. God, this is to give you a chance, Xiao Tao, hold it."

  Ming Tao focused on his head: "I understand my brother, but my idol is Buffon!"

  ……

   won Hanover, the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage reignited the battle, and in the next game, Schalke will play back to back against the Greeks at home.

But two days before this game, an explosive news related to Zhou Tiancheng came from Italy: the list of forty people of the 2009 Golden Boy Awards has been selected. Zhou Tiancheng’s name is not only impressive, but also passed the first In the round of voting, he won the first place with a total score of 200 points from 30 European authoritative media, which almost locked the Golden Boy Award.

Strictly speaking, this is not particularly explosive news. The performance of Zhou Tiancheng in the past season is obvious to all of Europe~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If he doesn’t have any persuasive performance, he can get so much support, maybe it is considered to be The big news.

   But this is not the case for the Chinese media. Zhou Tiancheng will overwhelm the crowd and will soon reap the first top award in Europe. This is the big news, and it is super good news!

In the past, as long as Chinese players can play the main or even the semi-main in the five major leagues, it is enough to rely on the expectations of fans. Yang Chen scored eight goals in a season in a relegation team like Frankfurt. It is regarded as a banner. , Even being named the Chinese Sun, even if currently mixed with the German second division, Shao Jiayi, who can only sit on the bench at Cottbus, is regarded as one of the representatives of overseas players. As for this top European genius Nomination, I dare not go to extravagance.

   So saying that Zhou Tiancheng is currently nominated for such a high vote will make Chinese journalists feel like they are dreaming of being hit by a big prize.

   Golden Boy Award, the best talent award in Europe under 21 years old. The influence is not as good as the FIFA Golden Globe Awards, but this award has been regarded as the vane of future superstars since its inception. In 2003, the first winner Van der Vaart, the 2004 winner Rooney, the 2005 winner Messi, the 2006 winner Fabregas... which is not the current big name in world football?

  The results of the selection of thirty European authoritative media are enough to prove the potential of a young man. After all, this represents the common vision of countless senior journalists in the entire sports media industry.

  Although Zhou Tiancheng is the most popular voice of Jintong, he is also very optimistic about ranking two to four popular characters after him. They are AC Milan genius Pato, Florence striker Jovitic and Barcelona demon Bojan.
