Midfielder Ruler

The 40-person shortlist for the 2014 European Golden Boy Award and the 23-person shortlist for the 2014 FIFA Ballon d'Or gave the Chinese media and fans the opportunity to be proud again. As a result, the Japanese and Korean media during this period were quite low-key and their reporting was quite satisfactory. , dare not add any emotion.

Because with the rise of Tang Zheng, outstanding young players in China have been springing up like bamboo shoots. The shortlist of candidates for the 2014 Golden Boy Award is very obvious. In addition to the star of hope Lu Liang, there are also players from Barcelona this summer. Sun Jingbo joined Celta Vigo on loan from the second team.

Although the 22-year-old Korean genius Sun Heung-min joined Leverkusen last year for a club record of 10 million euros, and scored ten goals and four assists in the Bundesliga in the past 2013-2014 season, compared to Tang The series of records Zheng left in Dortmund are still far behind, not even as good as Lu Liang, who was only 19 years old.

Where else is it worth showing off?

The Japanese media was not much better. Shinji Kagawa was squeezed out of his position by Tang Zheng in Dortmund.

Keisuke Honda, another representative figure in Europe, has been plagued by injuries recently, and he is not a core player of AC Milan. If it were said that he was, the Chinese media would probably laugh until his stomach hurts.

Therefore, during the period at the end of October, the sports media and fans in South Korea and Japan were very depressed and felt that they were unable to use their strength.

Closer to home, Real Madrid’s season competition is still going on. There are a total of six games in November, which does not seem to be very intensive. Evenly divided, there is only one game in five days, but this is based on the calculation without international match days.

Real Madrid will end the league match against Balakale at home on November 9th and will enter an international match day that lasts for about one and a half weeks. Under normal circumstances, the time from the end of the league to the second international match day is about ten days, that is to say Real Madrid will play six games in twenty days, and Real Madrid players are almost all core players in each national team, which means that they must participate in both national team games on the two international match days.

Eight games in a month and all the hard work of traveling and traveling are really hard enough just thinking about it.

Especially for a player like Tang Zheng who needs to take an international flight to fly halfway around the world, it is even more difficult!

The 2015 Asian Cup in Australia is getting closer and closer, with only two months left. As we all know, there are no international match days in December. This means that the two international match days in November are the last days for the Chinese team before the Asian Cup in Australia. period of military training.

The 2015 Asian Cup in Australia is held in January, and January is the start of the second half of La Liga. It is very important for teams like Real Madrid competing for the league championship, because the Champions League will reignite in February. If you want to To advance simultaneously on the three fronts, we must try our best to get enough points in the league.

This ensures full preparation for the Champions League.

There is a conflict between the Asian Cup in Australia and La Liga. According to the relevant FIFA regulations, Real Madrid has no right to prevent the Chinese team from recruiting Tang Zheng to participate in the Asian Cup. However, Tang Zheng has a strong sense of responsibility and cannot ignore the club for the sake of the national team. interests, so he decided to do his best before the arrival of the Asian Cup to help the club advance in the league as much as possible.

When I returned to China to prepare for the Asian Cup, the Club World Cup had just ended, and La Liga had also entered a short winter break. There was no impact. However, Real Madrid had five league games in January, and according to the previous arrangements for the Copa del Rey, there might be two rounds in between. Copa del Rey 1/8 finals.

If the Chinese team can reach the final Asian Cup finals, Real Madrid will lose Tang Zheng for seven games!

Tang Zheng, who has a broad field of vision on the court, is also far-sighted in life. He started to show his prowess in the game in early November.

In the away game against Granada, he contributed two goals and two assists, helping Real Madrid beat the home team 4:0. In the home Champions League group match in midweek, Tang Zheng scored another goal through Minho with a world-beating kick. Lai guarded the goal, and Real Madrid finally defeated Liverpool 1:0 at home thanks to Tang Zheng's world wave, and qualified for the group ahead of schedule with four consecutive group wins.

Since Basel drew with Ludogordes in the fourth round, both sides were second and third in the group with only four points from four games. Liverpool was at the bottom of the group with only three points from four games. This means that Real Madrid is already two games ahead of schedule. After winning the first round of the group, the remaining two rounds of the Champions League group stage can become training games for substitute players and young players.

Before the start of the international match day, Real Madrid faced Barakale at home. Tang Zheng once again showed his amazing competitive form, helping Real Madrid beat the opponent 5:1 at home. Butterfly has won 14 consecutive games in all competitions.

It is worth mentioning that after Barcelona lost to Real Madrid 1:4 as a guest, they returned to home and lost 0:1 to Celta Vigo. The player who helped Celta Vigo score the only goal of the game was loaned from Barcelona's second team this summer. Chinese international Sun Jingbo joins Celta Vigo.

Real Madrid itself surpassed Barcelona by one point to reach the top of the league. With Barcelona losing points and Real Madrid scoring, the difference between the two widened to four points.

It's a pity that while Tang Zheng won consecutively, Barcelona stopped the losing streak and followed closely behind in points.

※※※

As the international match day approaches, Tang Zheng takes a flight back to China to prepare for the international A-level friendly match before the Asian Cup.

This time, the Chinese team's opponent in the warm-up match was not a strong opponent. It was neighboring North Korea. Taking into account the tacit understanding between himself and Real Madrid coach Ancelotti, head coach Lippi did not give Tang Zheng much playing time in this friendly match, only giving him two minutes. About ten minutes.

Because in Lippi's view, the Chinese team is at its strongest when Tang Zheng is in charge of the game, and Tang Zheng will also adjust to his best form.

The 2015 Asian Cup in Australia is the 16th Asian Cup of the AFC. It was held in five stadiums in five cities in Australia from January 9 to 31. The 2014 Chinese Super League season ended in early November. Domestic players have It will take longer to adjust. The winter break of the European leagues will basically last until Christmas, which is exactly about half a month before the opening of the Asian Cup. Fortunately, the Chinese team currently has no players playing in the Premier League, otherwise recruiting players to participate in the Asian Cup will be a problem.

Of course, the pressure on the other four major leagues in Europe is also considerable, but the clubs in these leagues have nothing to do. After all, the relevant FIFA regulations are written in black and white, and you have to agree even if you don't agree.

Despite this, the time for players in Europe to get in touch with the team is always limited, and Christmas is only half a month away from the start of the Asian Cup.

But these problems are faced by any Asian national team with players in Europe, and Lippi is not worried about this because he has the most trustworthy Tang Zheng. Tang Zheng played two games in Morocco before Christmas. You can directly meet the national team during the Club World Cup and enter preparations for the Asian Cup.

In fact, it didn’t take long for Tang Zheng to get in touch with the national team in this year’s World Cup in Brazil, but he could quickly integrate into the national team, so Lippi is thinking that China will have an absolute impact in the Asian Cup in Australia next year. Asian Cup Champion.

The Chinese team only arranged one international match in the last two international match days in 2014, and then Tang Zheng took a flight back to Madrid that night to prepare for the twelfth round of the 2014-2015 La Liga season and challenge the newly promoted IBA as a guest.

In fact, before Real Madrid prepared for the Club World Cup, the opponents Real Madrid encountered were not strong. However, in early December, Real Madrid's game against Celta Vigo at the Bernabeu attracted the attention of the domestic media because Tang Zheng will have a match with Sun Jingbo. The first Chinese derby in La Liga history.

The newly promoted Iba's strength is limited. Even at home, Real Madrid players have experienced blind matches on international match days, but their strength is dominant after all. In the end, they won with two goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and James Rodriguez. The game is won.

Next is the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, because Real Madrid has already won the first place in the group in advance. In order for the team to better prepare for the league, Ancelotti did not go to Basel. Many players did not go to Basel, but Real Madrid still relied on Isco. Score a goal to win the game as a guest.

It is worth mentioning that Chinese international Wu Sanshi, who plays for Basel, performed well. If not for bad luck, he is likely to help Basel draw with Real Madrid.

No one expected that after Real Madrid experienced a slump at the beginning of the season, they would magically win sixteen consecutive games in all competitions and ten consecutive league victories.

Over the weekend, Real Madrid continued their away trip to challenge Malaga. With Tang Zheng's corner kick in stoppage time, Real Madrid defeated Malaga 2:1 in the away game and won their 11th consecutive league victory.

If Real Madrid, which has won 17 consecutive games in all competitions, can win against CD-Corne, Celta Vigo, Ludogordes and Almeria before the Club World Cup, Real Madrid can hit the mark created by Coritiba in 2011. Twenty-four consecutive wins in all competitions. Because Real Madrid's overall strength is outstanding in the Club World Cup, winning the semi-finals and finals is not a big problem. By then, it will be a twenty-three-game winning streak in all competitions.

Spanish domestic and foreign media are also reporting on the world record that Real Madrid, who are in good form, may touch, making the Real Madrid team highly exposed during this period.

Records are what every professional player pursues, and Tang Zheng is no exception.

His original intention was to perform well in the domestic league and help Real Madrid establish an advantage in the league. By then, even if Real Madrid loses points, it can recover them after the Asian Cup. But now that there is an opportunity to set a world record, why not do more? What about effort?

In this regard, Tang Zheng and his teammates have the same idea.

Real Madrid, who returned home, faced the challenge of CD-Corne in the second leg of the Copa del Rey 1/16 finals. In view of the weak opponent, Ancelotti still sent a large number of substitutes and young players to participate. With his excellent overall strength, he finally scored five goals. Victory over your opponent.

The league match between Real Madrid and Celta Vigo does not have much interest for Spanish domestic media. Only the local media in Catalonia and the media supporting Atletico Madrid hope that Celta Vigo, which once upset Barcelona, ​​can upset Barcelona again. Real Madrid.

This gives Barcelona and Atletico Madrid the opportunity to reduce the score.

Chinese domestic media paid great attention to this game. Before the World Cup in Brazil this summer, not many people paid attention to the young Sun Jingbo. However, as he shined in the World Cup, more and more people knew about the Barcelona second team. There is also a Chinese named Sun Jingbo.

This summer, through the efforts of Tang Zheng's agency, Sun Jingbo got the opportunity to join Celta Vigo on loan. Sun Jingbo did not disappoint Tang Zheng and Rodrygo. He quickly won the starting position with his extraordinary strength, and even in the focus battle Kill the parent team Barcelona.

Therefore, this La Liga match played at the Bernabeu Stadium attracted a lot of attention from Chinese domestic media and fans.

As we all know, Sun Jingbo is a contract player of Tang Zheng's agency, so the Chinese domestic media chose a very gimmick title for this game: China La Liga Derby Boss Battle.

The Spanish domestic media gave the game a much more conventional name, simply describing it as David challenging Goliath.

In the end, David failed to defeat Goliath. Tang Zheng, Modric and Benzema each scored a goal to help Real Madrid defeat visiting Celta Vigo 3-0.

The two games before the Club World Cup failed to pose any threat to Real Madrid. Real Madrid defeated Ludogordes 4:0 at home and Almeria 4:1 as a guest, winning 21 consecutive games in all competitions. victory, thirteen consecutive league victories.

After winning the game, the entire Real Madrid team took a flight to Monaco that evening to begin preparations for the Club World Cup.

As the champions of the Champions League, Real Madrid enjoys the privilege of not having to participate in the quarter-finals and can directly advance to the semi-finals like the champions of the Copa Libertadores and San Lorenzo.

In order to take into account the viewing enjoyment of the final, the semi-finals of the Champions League champion and the Copa Libertadores champion were staggered, so Real Madrid's opponent in the Club World Cup semi-final was the Blue Cross from Mexico.

Tang Zheng once won the Copa Libertadores and the Champions League with River Plate and Borussia Dortmund respectively. However, he joined Dortmund and Real Madrid in the summer of 2009 and last summer respectively, so he lost the opportunity to participate in the Club World Cup, which means that he will face the Blue Cross. The semi-finals of the Club World Cup were Tang Zheng's first Club World Cup match in his career.

Men always care about the first time in their lives, and Tang Zheng does the same.

In the semi-finals at the Prince Moulay Abdullah Stadium, Real Madrid defeated Blue Cross 4-0 with Tang Zheng's brace and goals from Ramos and Benzema, taking the lead in advancing to the final.

One day later, in another semi-final at the Marrakesh Stadium, Copa Libertadores champion San Lorenzo defeated Auckland City 2:1.

At 7:30 pm on December 20th local time in Monaco, Real Madrid accepted the challenge from South American Copa Libertadores champion San Lorenzo at the Marrakesh Stadium.

With Real Madrid's four-goal victory over Blue Cross, Real Madrid has won 22 consecutive victories in all competitions and is in a hot state. San Lorenzo is worried that Real Madrid can play something on the offensive end and choose to defend comprehensively.

In the first half of the game, the team drew 0:0 with Real Madrid thanks to the unified thinking. However, at the beginning of the second half, Tang Zheng, who has been in excellent form recently, contributed a kick that shocked everyone in the World Cup to break the deadlock.

The score was behind and the defense had lost its meaning against San Lorenzo.

However, San Lorenzo, who strengthened their offensive, failed to make any achievements on the offensive end. Instead, the defense conceded another goal. Tang Zheng accurately found Cristiano Ronaldo with a long pass after stealing the ball, resulting in a one-on-one goal.

Cristiano Ronaldo was very calm and easily kicked the ball into the far corner against the goalkeeper.

And this goal was also the last goal in the 2014 Club World Cup.

In this way, Tang Zheng won the first Club World Cup championship in his personal glory list.
