The biggest fanatic in football

Chapter 721 Who is the stronger substitute?

60m runner-up, 100m champion, 1500m champion.

With 2 gold medals and 1 silver score, Li Polo ended his first international track and field competition in his career.

After the game, he learned that the prize money in the so-called international competition was not as generous as scoring a goal at Chelsea.

A gold medal in an individual event only brings a mere 3,000 yuan in prize money!

Looking at the 7,000 yuan in income he had just received, Li Polo fell into self-doubt:

【That's it?】

【Is the bonus missing by 0?】

[After working hard to participate in three events, the prize money is not enough to buy diapers for my son?]

He couldn't help but grab Su Bingtian, who was gifting 1 gold and 1 silver, and 4,000 yuan, and asked a heart-wrenching question:

"Brother, is your bonus enough to buy a round-trip ticket?"

"Stop running and play football with me!"

"Appearance fees, winning awards, assist awards, promotion awards, everything can reach four figures!"

-

Although the prize money was pitifully small, the traffic of the competition made Lee Polo once again hit the headlines.

"Football and athletics are blooming! Lee Polo tells you what it means to be an all-around superstar!"

"The chairman of British Athletics is beaming, he will definitely have a place in the 2020 Olympics!"

"With the two men joining forces to dominate Birmingham, track and field events may usher in the peak of Chinese players?"

"Extreme racists reported in real name: Li Polo was 100% taking drugs to compete! There is no way a yellow man can win the championship!"

"Li Polo solemnly promises: All prize money from all track and field events in the future will be donated to charity funds!"

…

In just a few hours, Lee Polo has gained another wave of fans around the world. The total number of followers on the three major platforms has officially exceeded 1.2 billion!

Among the 7 billion people in the world, more than one sixth are his fans!

-

In order to participate in the track and field competition with a prize money of only 7,000 yuan, Lee Polo missed Chelsea's pre-match press conference before the FA Cup.

Since the next game was in Manchester, 150 kilometers northwest of Birmingham, Lee Polo did not return to London and directly instructed the driver to drive to the away hotel.

When he arrived at the hotel booked by Chelsea Club, Cudicini had already finished a press conference with Carrick.

Both coaches are acting coaches and were not good at publicly criticizing each other in front of the media before, so the atmosphere of this press conference was particularly harmonious.

Cudinich spoke highly of Carrick, saying that it is not an easy task to bring the mess left by Mourinho back on track.

Carrick complimented Cudinic, saying that it is even more valuable to be able to lead a championship team like Chelsea to maintain the desire to win and continue to charge towards various championships.

Although he was unable to participate in person, Li Polo still did not miss the public opinion battle before the game.

He posted his thoughts on his personal account:

"Mr Carrick is a good man and a very good player, but I don't think he is the right person to lead Manchester United into a renaissance.

The head coach who can solve the current problems must have the DNA of Manchester United and the experience of leading a team to win important championships alone. Mr. Gary Neville is the most suitable candidate!"

Less than 10 minutes after this article was published, he received a call from Nei Wenhao:

"You kid, you want to put me on the fire and roast me to death!"

"Anyway, I didn't offend you, right?"

"I've seen it a long time ago. In the Champions League, you beat me twice before and you weren't satisfied. Now you want me to return to the Premier League and be beaten by you every day?"

"Be a human being!"

[Negative sentiment from Gary Neville, +996!]

After hanging up the phone, Neville immediately updated his account:

"Due to personal health issues, I will no longer consider taking up the coaching position for the time being. Please understand from friends from all walks of life."

"Mr. Michael Carrick is doing a great job at Manchester United and I support him 100%!"

"If it doesn't work, you can also ask Ole Solskjaer to return. He has won many honors in Norway and will definitely help Manchester United's tactical level!"

The baby-faced boy in Norway couldn't help but tremble!

【Let me go!】

[It would be nice to dominate the Norwegian league!]

[I am not the golden generation of your Class 92! I don’t have any Red Devil DNA! 】

[I was just an insignificant substitute in the Manchester United team back then, and you, Neville, were the legendary captain of the Red Devils!]

February 16th.

The day after Lee Polo won the 7,000 yuan bonus, the fifth round of the FA Cup kicked off at Old Trafford.

Although it was very popular in the promotional video, when the broadcast camera was focused on the stands of Dream Theater, everyone saw a large and sparse crowd.

The stadium that can accommodate 76,000 people only has about 40,000 fans, many of whom are from London...

The Manchester commentator could only explain awkwardly:

"Valentine's Day has just passed, and many young people are still immersed in the festive atmosphere, enjoying the warmth and sweetness, and have not returned to fierce football matches for the time being..."

No one believes his lies!

In other duels held in the same round, the attendance rate reached 90% without exception!

Only Manchester United's fans are unwilling to buy tickets to watch the game!

——Who wants to spend money to buy suffering?

-

Because he had just participated in three thrilling track and field competitions, Li Polo, whose "physical condition was not very healthy," was benched by the coaching team.

Hazard, who returned from injury, led Giroud, Willian, Kante, Lafa and other teammates to face Manchester United away from home.

For Manchester United, Morata leads the front line, Rashford and Martial are separated on the left and right, Pogba, Herrera, and Matic sit in the midfield, and Lindelof partners with Smalling on the defense line.

Shri Young and Luke Shaw serve as wings, and the goalkeeper is Argentinian goalkeeper Romero.

This is obviously not all of Manchester United's main players. Sanchez, Lukaku, Lingard, Fred, Bailly, De Gea and other players are all sitting on the bench.

Carrick may have wanted them to act as surprise players in the second half, but Chelsea's surprise players made these players instantly lose their desire to play!

Sanchez stretched and patted Lukaku's neck:

"Fat man, do you have your cards?"

Lukaku shrugged his shoulders unhappily, and three folds suddenly appeared on his neck.

But he still obediently took out a pair of cards from his pocket:

"Is anyone else going to participate?"

Lingard made a "66" shape with his hands and joined the battle group with great interest!

Now that the outcome of the game has been determined, let’s find a little happiness outside the game!

-

It's no wonder that the Manchester United players were bored and wanted to fight the landlord, because the game on the field was in a stalemate.

On the one hand, Manchester United has the Spanish header king, Moura, but they are unable to complete a decent cross from the two wings. Ashley Young often passes the ball to Luke Shaw, who takes aim for a long time.

After that, another beautiful arc was drawn in the air and passed to Professor Yang on the other side...

On the other hand, Hazard, who had rested for more than a week, returned to his peak condition. He alone contained most of Manchester United's defense.

Thirdly, Manchester United's core midfielder Pogba was frozen by his French compatriot Kante and was unable to organize an attack at all!

The 0:0 situation reached a stalemate in the 37th minute. Kante once again stole the ball from Pogba's feet, and Cesc Fabregas kicked it to the left!

Hazard did not choose to stop the ball as usual, but used a light heel to knock the ball in the air, directly deceiving Ashley Young who was defending him, and then quickly dribbled the ball laterally.

Like a mountain, Giroud stopped Smalling who wanted to attack and helped Hazard open up space. The latter stretched his bow and arrow at the front of the penalty area and shot with a kick to break the deadlock!

1:0!

Manchester United did not give up after conceding the goal, and they quickly launched a counterattack.

Luke Shaw passed Moses in a line from the left, rushed to the corner flag area, and swept the ball towards the goal before Azpilicueta blocked it, but Morata kicked the ball into the stands!

Morata knelt in front of Navas, listening to the boos at Old Trafford, feeling extremely sad:

【I really only know how to header the ball!】

[I am now... just like when Lee Polo first joined Valencia! 】

If he could hear his voice, Lee Polo would definitely give him a slap in the face!

【Who is like you?】

[Back then, in addition to dominating La Liga with headers, I was also good at grabbing points in front of goal!]
