I Just Can Score

Chapter 494 Alexander, under pressure

Cameroon coach Otto Pfister still has some confidence in defending Zhen Shaolong. He does not require complete restraint of Zhen Shaolong. As long as he does not let him score crazy goals, Cameroon has a chance to win the game.

Cameroon's defense is very strong. Compared with other lineups, the defense can be described as a star lineup. Their two central defenders are Andrew Bikai and Alexander Song.

Andrew Bikey was born in the La Liga club Espanyol, played for Xinlik in the Russian League at the beginning of his career, and later joined the Russian Super League team Lokomotiv Moscow.

Bikai performed well in Lokomotiv Moscow, but was often racially abused by opposing fans during the game.

In the summer of 2006, Bikai decided to leave Moscow. He followed the Premier League club Reading to Sweden for a pre-season warm-up match for trial training and won a one-year loan contract from Reading.

In the second year, he officially joined Reading, and the transfer fee exceeded 1 million pounds.

Alexander Song is also a very capable player. He once played for the French Bastia Club and attracted the attention of many giants during his effectiveness, such as Inter Milan, Manchester United, and Lyon. In the end, his trial training at Arsenal won the attention of head coach Arsene Wenger. of favor.

Later, Alexander Song joined Arsenal. Because of his unsteady performance in the early stage, he was loaned to Charlton in the Premier League. He became the team's main defensive midfielder in the second half of the season. After returning to Arsenal, he began to get frequent opportunities to play. It is worth mentioning that he has experience fighting against Zhen Shaolong.

So Alexander Song is the player who mainly marks Zhen Shaolong.

In the Olympic football match, there is not much time left for preparations. After the group stage, it will be the quarter-finals. The Olympic team only has two days of training in the capital, and the game will be ushered in immediately.

The venue for the match is the Capital Workers Stadium.

On the morning of the game, the surrounding area of ​​the Workers Stadium was already packed with fans, and the traffic in several nearby streets was affected by the flow of people.

Many fans who don't have tickets are looking around for possible places to buy tickets.

Scalper tickets have become very popular.

Two hours before the start of the game, the price of scalper tickets reached its peak, and some fans spent more than 2,000 yuan to buy tickets in the last row.

The fare is pretty amazing.

Some ticket prices for good seats in the front row have even been heated up to more than 10,000 yuan.

When the Workers Stadium officially opened, fans frantically poured into the stadium, and the audience seats were packed in a short time. After most fans found their seats, they could be seen in the arena. It was very difficult, there were still many fans standing in the back row, and they probably only bought standing tickets.

Just by looking at the number of fans who came to watch the game, you can also know the degree of attention to the game.

A large number of fans wanted to watch this game, because the results of the Chinese Olympic team were very good. The group qualified for the quarter-finals in two games, and they also met the Cameroon team, which may be defeated.

In addition, many fans also came to support Zhen Shaolong.

Zhen Shaolong's performance was so good that the group scored nine goals in two games. In front of his scoring numbers, Messi, Ronaldinho, Riquelme and other stars seemed to be unimportant.

Two days ago, the video of the match between Zhen Shaolong and Kobe saw the enthusiasm of the fans watching the football. They hoped to see Zhen Shaolong show off his prowess and help the Chinese team beat Cameroon and get tickets to the Olympic football semi-finals.

That would be historic!

Amidst the cheers and cheers from the fans, the game on the field soon started.

Zhen Shaolong appeared on the stage as expected, and his partner was Hao Lin who performed well in the group stage.

The division of labor between the two is clear.

Zhen Shaolong acts as a free center. He is closely marked by the opponent, and it is impossible to play other positions.

Hao Lin is an important firepower point.

The game had just started, and Zhen Shaolong realized how tough the African teams were defending.

Ordinary running and fighting, every time you have to fight your opponent's body, every time you feel that the opponent's muscles are like iron, and every time you collide, your whole body hurts.

This is the effect of "Golden Body" after relieving pain.

Even Zhen Shaolong couldn't imagine how to fight head-on with the opponent without the "Golden Body" skill.

For example, other teammates.

Zhen Shaolong also noticed the situation of other teammates. They also collided with each other physically, but every time it was the teammates who suffered the loss, the teammates took the initiative to fight, and they would become the one who grinned.

The other side is different.

There was an unknown midfielder on the other side who ran fast and raised his legs high to grab a spot. He lost control of his weight and fell to the ground. He rolled twice in a row, stood up and touched his head. Nothing happened, and the game continued to restart.

"They're not human..."

Zhen Shaolong really didn't want to say that, but he still complained, "A bunch of beasts!"

Ok!

Feel sorry!

That's really not friendly!

Zhen Shaolong felt that just because the other party was great, he should not judge the other party with abusive words.

During the game, Zhen Shaolong found it very difficult to find opportunities. The opponent's two central defenders were very targeted at him, especially the guy with a pile of braids next to him. It's a bit of a bully to bump into people.

"once!"

"twice!"

"three times……"

Being knocked to the ground for the third time, Zhen Shaolong stood up, gritted his teeth, and said to Alexander Song, "You have hit me three times!"

Alexander Song raised his head proudly, "So what? I didn't foul."

"Good! You're fine!"

Zhen Shaolong was still a little angry. Anyone who was knocked down continuously and ate a mouthful of grass clippings would not be able to feel happy, but being knocked down continuously can also accumulate times to activate skills.

He had been waiting for that moment.

The Chinese team as a whole is not at a disadvantage, their disadvantage is only fighting, and their cooperation is no worse than that of Cameroon.

This is also normal.

In the eyes of the outside media, Cameroon is only a little better than China, and when Zhen Shaolong is still regarded as an ordinary star, many people think that the Chinese team has a higher winning percentage in real matches.

For one thing, Zhen Shaolong's scoring efficiency is high.

Second, the general strength of Chinese players is not much worse than that of Cameroon.

There are many players in Cameroon who play in African leagues, and most of the leagues in Africa can't talk about the level at all. Even the top stars among them can hardly have a place in Europe.

Chinese players are generally not well-known, but the level of the Chinese Super League is much better than that of the African League.

The advantage of the Chinese team lies in technology and cooperation.

Duisevic's so-called coordination is not good. The object of comparison is the top team, but their overall coordination is better than that of Cameroon, and the technology and coordination make up for the lack of physical fitness.

So the two sides were evenly matched.

Cameroon's direct attack could hardly threaten the defense of the Chinese team's backcourt; Zhen Shaolong was heavily defended in the frontcourt, and the Chinese team did not find a good opportunity.

This situation has continued.

Perhaps it was also because both sides attached great importance to defense and did not invest many troops in offense.

When it is difficult for both sides to find a chance, no matter how fierce the fight is on the field, don't make people look very irritable. After all, football is a sport of scoring goals. There is no possibility of scoring, and no matter how fierce the fight is, it is meaningless.

The camera lens is also frequently pointing to the focus——

Zhen Shaolong.

In the 27th minute of the game, Zhen Shaolong was brought down again.

This time he took the initiative to retreat to get the ball. When his teammates passed the ball, Alexander Song competed with him. The two ran very fast, and as a result, their bodies collided and their center of gravity was unstable.

Zhen Shaolong almost fell to the ground.

Alexander Song was not much better either. He poked his feet and slid for more than half a meter, then fell to the ground and stood there in a daze.

"injured?"

The audience's attention was immediately focused on Alexander Song. Alexander Song was sitting on the ground, taking off his sneakers and looking carefully. He looked left and right with a sad expression on his face.

"It's just that the shoes are broken!"

The game commentator said with a smile, "This is probably his cherished sneaker. Seeing his face full of pain... But fortunately, he was not injured."

Alexander Song fiddled with his sneakers for a long time before he went to the sidelines to change a pair of shoes under the urging of the referee.

When he returned to the arena, his expression was obviously sad.

Zhen Shaolong almost fell into a dog's shit, and he was not in a good mood. When he saw Alexander Song's expression, he immediately complained, "It's just a pair of sneakers! As for it!"

"What do you know!"

"You can speak English?" Zhen Shaolong found something surprising.

"Of course, I have been in the Premier League for more than two years. Last time Arsenal played Newcastle United, I had a word with you."

"..."

Zhen Shaolong felt very sorry.

He forgot.

So we have to change the subject, "Is there any commemorative significance for the sneakers just now? Are they given by your girlfriend?"

"No, just ordinary sneakers."

"what?"

"But it's also very expensive! The sneakers provided by the sponsoring company are limited, and if there are too many, you can only buy them with money."

"what?"

“Sneakers are expensive!”

Zhen Shaolong was stunned when he heard this, it was the first time he had seen a Premier League player feel sorry for a broken pair of sneakers, "Isn't this guy too stingy?"

During the spare time of the competition, Zhen Shaolong chatted with Song, and knew the reason for Song's stinginess——

high pressure!

Alexander Song was born in Cameroon. There are 28 brothers and sisters in his family. He has 11 brothers and 17 sisters. He has more than enough to form a football team.

When Song was only two years old, his father died, leaving behind five wives and a dozen brothers and sisters who grew up in a difficult environment.

The habit of Africans is that after a person becomes rich, all relatives and friends will come to eat the big family. Counting their respective family members, Song has to support hundreds of family members by himself, and he is absolutely worthy of his name-Alexander.

"It's really stressful..."

Thinking about Song's name and the pressure he was facing, Zhen Shaolong couldn't help but burst out laughing, and realized that he was suspected of gloating in his misfortune, so he straightened up to comfort Song, "Otherwise, let me accompany you with this pair of sneakers. My sneakers are all from sponsors anyway.”

"Your sneakers?"

Song looked down and grinned. It was the first time he heard that someone would be so shameless as to give away the sneakers they were wearing to others.

Zhen Shaolong also found that it was not very good, so he immediately made amends and said, "Well, after the game is over, I will sign my name on it. Then you can take it to auction, I think...it should be worth a lot of money, right?"

Song froze.

When he thought about it carefully, it was really the case.

The star in front of him is Zhen Shaolong, who is considered to be the best football player in China and has a huge influence in the world. The sneakers he participated in the Olympic quarter-finals must be worth a lot of money if he signs his name.

Song immediately nodded, "You are really a good person..."

"certainly."

Zhen Shaolong began to talk about his experience, "Actually, there are many ways to make money, not necessarily just relying on salary. If you can exchange the sneakers of the opponent's star every game, and find the opponent to sign their names by the way, and trade them all, maybe You can make a lot of money…”

There was a golden light in Song's eyes. He found that the other party was so smart that he could think of such a wonderful method, "Why didn't I think of it?"

"How did he think of it, it's so clever!"

Song Zizi found the golden road, and couldn't help hugging Zhen Shaolong's shoulders excitedly. He looked like a close partner, and added, "Thank you! But now it's a competition , I will still be very serious!"

"It's okay! Of course."

Zhen Shaolong didn't care, and felt that he had become a good person.

courtside.

Seeing this scene, Otto Pfister suddenly thought suspiciously, "Alexander and Zhen know each other...it's not surprising, but the match is still going on, why are they acting so close?"

"This guy... won't be a problem, will he?"
