long live the king

Zhang Yang enjoys the feeling of being at home, not to mention that there is a copy of the "Ball King System", his "holiday" training is perfect, and now he is practicing foot skills with Okocha in the copy, it is a joy when.Of course, it would be even better if Edmondo's 'beast' could shut up.

At this moment, he received a call from Zhong Dajun.

As the first Chinese reporter to interview Zhang Yang, Zhong Dajun has always maintained a good relationship with Zhang Yang.

Therefore, Zhang Yang didn't feel any surprise when he received a call from Zhong Dajun, but what surprised him was the content of the call from Zhong Dajun.

Zhong Dajun told Zhang Yang that CCTV Sports Channel's "Football Night" planned to invite him to do a program.

Now, in the Chinese football industry, everyone knows that this reporter named Zhong Dajun has a good relationship with Zhang Yang, so it is understandable for CCTV to contact Zhang Yang through Zhong Dajun.

However, when Zhang Yang heard that "Football Night" was going to ask him to do the show, he shook his head.

"Hehehe, let me tell you, it's not like you don't know the bad relationship between me and the Football Association, and you asked me to do a show on "Football Night". What do these people think?" Zhang Yang smiled.

"The Football Association is the Football Association, and "Football Night" is "Football Night". Is there any relationship between the two?" Zhong Dajun heard that Zhang Yang deliberately refused, and quickly persuaded him.

"No." Zhang Yang shook his head, "I won't go anyway if you say it's breaking the sky. This is you, if it's another reporter passing on the message, I'll just talk on the phone." He doesn't want to accept the media now. He doesn't want to get involved in the muddy waters of domestic football, although participating in the "Football Night" program does not seem to have anything to do with domestic football , but is this possible?

"It's not that you don't know the influence of "Football Night" in China. Besides, CCTV has found you. If you refuse, what will they think? They will probably say that you are playing big names..." Zhong Dajun He was still trying to persuade Zhang Yang, but he had no choice. When CCTV's "Football Night" crew found him, he felt that he had a good relationship with Zhang Yang, and for Zhang Yang, being able to participate in "Football Night" program, It is also a good thing to have in-depth contact with fans all over the country. He actually patted his chest and said that inviting Zhang Yang to participate in the show was left to him.

No, the cowhide was blown out.Now that I heard that Zhang Yang is unwilling to participate, can Zhong Dajun be in a hurry?

※※※※※※※※※※

"Say I'm playing a big game? Whoever likes to talk, whoever says it." Zhang Yang said angrily.

Zhong Dajun on the other end of the phone gave a wry smile, he was so mean, knowing that the person on the other end of the phone didn't like 'threats' the most.

"Don't you want to know the main content of this "Football Night" program?" Zhong Dajun asked suddenly, he was so stupid, he should have used this to seduce Zhang Yang long ago.In this way, Zhang Yang will definitely be interested.

"What content?" Zhang Yang asked casually.

"The program of "Football Night" is carried out together with the live broadcast of the Chinese and French teams. The theme of this program is the origin of Chinese football and French football." Zhong Dajun said.

"Oh." Zhang Yang smiled, he didn't bother to pay attention to the origin of Chinese football and French football, but he couldn't help being moved by the first half of Zhong Dajun's sentence.

Although Zhang Yang doesn't care about the Chinese Football Association's banning him from participating in the national team, Zhang Yang is still eager for this warm-up match between China and France. It will also be more interesting to play against my friend Franck Ribery as the opponent.

However, he was excluded by the national team as a "scourge". This time, he lost the opportunity to play against Ribery, and Zhang Yang was quite depressed.

Now that you're depressed, let's vent it.

Zhang Yang thought about it, but he could use this opportunity to talk to fans all over the country.You can even take this opportunity to vent. What happened to him in Ligue [-], the Football Association rushed to suspend him, who had never been in the national team, Zhang Yang was annoyed thinking about it.

The clay figurine is still hot, not to mention that Zhang Yang is not a clay figurine.

※※※※※※※※※※

Two days later, Zhang Yang came to Beijing, preparing to participate in the recording of "Football Night".

This is not the first time Zhang Yang has recorded a talk show. He is now a super rookie of the Marseille team and a new flag star that the Marseille club has focused on building. I once did an exclusive interview with Zhang Yang. In addition, the French national TV station also once did an exclusive interview with Zhang Yang.

Of course, that was when he was in France. In China, apart from Zhang Yang’s interview with Dragon TV, this CCTV’s “Football Night” program is also the second time he has participated in the program in China. .

When they arrived at the studio, Liu Jianhong was already waiting. As the gold medal partner of CCTV Sports Channel, Liu Jianhong and Huang Jianxiang have long been known to everyone. Zhang Yang grew up watching the two commentary games when he was young.At that time, he never imagined that one day he would be able to be a program on "Football Night" hosted by Liu Jianhong.

Liu Jianhong's partner Huang Jianxiang has already flown to Germany at this moment, preparing to commentate the World Cup on the spot, and Liu Jianhong will also fly directly to Germany to join Huang Jianxiang in two days' time.

"Hi, welcome, Zhang Yang." Liu Jianhong stood up and shook hands with Zhang Yang.

"Hi, Teacher Jianhong, I'm your fan." Zhang Yang said with a smile.

"Haha, I'm your fan. Make sure you sign your autograph and take a picture with me." Liu Jianhong smiled. He wasn't talking nonsense. He was indeed a fan of Zhang Yang. In fact, Chinese fans now Which of them is not a fan of Zhang Yang?

When Liu Jianhong learned that the "Football Night" program was held during the match between the Chinese national team and the French national team, and that Zhang Yang would be invited to participate in the program, he was taken aback for a moment, and then slapped his thigh. The idea is simply brilliant.

※※※※※※※※※※

At the beginning of the program, some news from Montpellier, France, where the warm-up match between China and France was held, was sent back.

"Saint-Etienne, the location of the Sino-French battle, is the traditional base of French football. Before the game, this beautiful town got an exciting news. President Chirac will be there to watch the Sino-French battle and cheer for the upcoming French team. Cheering. At around 7:40 p.m. local time, President Chirac really appeared at the Saint-Etienne Stadium. Although there is still more than an hour before the start of the game, the atmosphere on the scene has already experienced a small climax.

Saint-Etienne, a city less than 60 kilometers away from Lyon, the second largest city in France, was one of the venues for the 1998 World Cup in France.Although the population is only 40, this beautiful town is famous in France for its football and unique scientific research base.Historically, the French team has also arranged their training base in Saint-Etienne many times. One is because of the comfortable and beautiful environment here, and the other is because of the good football atmosphere here.

Almost all the hotels and hotels in the center of Saint-Etienne were booked out 3 days ago, and most of the hotels had to hang a full house sign at the door.According to local government estimates, more than 1 French fans will come from surrounding areas or other places during the game.More than 15000 fans came to watch the training of the French team yesterday.

At around 7:5 p.m. local time, all the French team members have arrived at the game site, and most of the fans have already entered the stadium.

At around 8:[-] p.m., the Chinese players began to enter the field to warm up. The two goalkeepers Li Leilei and Wang Dalei entered the field first.The warm-up of the two teams once again set off a small climax at the scene, and the fans applauded enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was quite enthusiastic.

The reason why the French team chose China as their warm-up opponent is mainly because they are South Korea's close neighbors.Domenech, coach of the French national team, said before the game that he would send all the main players to play, and announced the starting lineup in advance yesterday morning. To a large extent, the starting lineup for this game will also be the first match of the World Cup against Switzerland The team's starting lineup. "

"It is said that when the French general manager Chirac met the head coach of the Chinese national team, Zhu Guanghu, he also expressed his congratulations to Zhang Yang for winning the Ligue [-] Golden Boot."

The reporters in front began to tell Liu Jianhong the situation on the scene through the telephone connection.

When Liu Jianhong heard his colleagues say, "President Chirac congratulated Zhu Guanghu, the head coach of the Chinese national team, on Zhang Yang's Ligue [-] Golden Boot", he immediately paid attention to Zhang Yang's expression. Sure enough, he saw a smile on the corner of Zhang Yang's mouth.

This kid must be in awe.Liu Jianhong thought to himself.

※※※※※※※※※※

The final result of this warm-up match at the Gioferoli-Quickard Stadium in Saint-Étienne was that France beat China 3-1 at home.In the 14th minute, Zidane missed a penalty kick.In the 30th minute, Trezeguet, who came off the bench, received a pass from Henry and scored.In the 69th minute, Zheng Zhi won a penalty kick and took the penalty himself to equalize the score.At the last moment, Wang Yun made a weird own goal and handed over a good game, and then Henry shot an empty goal into the net from a long distance to seal the victory

"The fans of Saint-Etienne are happy." Zhang Yang said with a smile when he saw Zidane coming out of the player tunnel on the TV screen.

Playing in France for a year, Zhang Yang can feel the importance of Zidane to French fans, and he can understand the emotions of French fans.That's why he said that.

Zidane has announced that he will retire in the World Cup, so the audience in Saint-Etienne is undoubtedly the happiest audience in France. They were fortunate to see Zidane's last game in France.Zidane did not disappoint the audience in his home country, it can be said that Zidane presented his most pleasing performance for the French audience in more than a year.

This may be a game that has been postponed for a year, but Zizou, who has entered the twilight of his career, is still showing his usual elegance.Whether it's lingering steps on the field or a very penetrating pass, they all show people the demeanor of a former World Footballer.The chanting of "zizou, zizou" over the Giza stadium is testament to this.

Perhaps due to the poor strength of the opponent, Zidane has more space to play on the court.Even Henry couldn't use his thighs to pass the ball freely in the opponent's penalty area, but Zizu used this method to make a series of movements such as holding the ball, changing direction, and passing so perfectly that he completely lost his patience. And the rational Chinese team defender recklessly took him down.The teammates crowded Zidane to the penalty spot, and in Zizu's view, whether the penalty was scored or not may no longer be so important.Therefore, Zizou, who could accurately push the penalty kick into the upper left dead corner in the overtime of the European Cup semi-finals, chose the same way as his teammate Beckham in Real Madrid: slipped while missing the penalty kick.The smile he showed after waving to his teammates later showed that he would not be as embarrassed as Beckham.

Rather than saying that this is a penalty kick that should have been taken by Qi Zu, it is better to say that this is a gift from God.The penalty kick in the warm-up match is indifferent, but the successful cooperation in the warm-up match is very important.France's first goal came unsurprisingly from Zidane.It was his precise behind-the-ball that found Henry and made Trezeguet's first goal, which was just right in terms of route and passing power; and France's second "effective goal" Also from Zidane's wonderful pass, the timely midfield pass gave Wiltord a chance to face the opponent's goalkeeper. Although Li Leilei's accurate attack stopped Wiltord's efforts, Henry's complement The shot still sealed the victory for the French team. It is no wonder that the leader of Arsenal ran to the captain of the national team immediately after the goal.These two goals, without exception, show that Zidane is still the most important offensive initiator of the French team.

Zidane still has the elegance of a sudden stop in a fast running and a clever unloading of the ball, but in this game, people saw another side of Qi Zu that is rarely seen: the game is near the end, and the Chinese team is close to the bottom line. After the referee Davila called the foul, Zidane angrily put the ball on the ground, and then smashed it hard with his hands.If it was placed in the past, in the warm-up match, Zidane would definitely not have such a move.But today is obviously different. Zidane will play football in his home country for the last time. As the captain, he will bring the team a victory.Now Zidane no longer cares about personal gains and losses; compared with his teammates, he has a sense of responsibility. A mature man who has gone through vicissitudes does not take everything lightly. He still has a childlike desire for honor and victory!

This may be the last time the French saw Zidane on their own soil. Zidane used his performance to give the country a perfect curtain call.Perhaps it is not a good thing to make the French miss Zidane for a longer period of time, but Zidane of Saint-Etienne deserves everyone's respect.

※※※※※※※※※※

Perhaps it was because this was Zidane's last game before the World Cup. After the game started, Zhang Yang really integrated into the game. He wanted to sarcasm the Chinese Football Association, but he didn't say it.He also thinks it's boring. If a pig bites you, you can't just bite the pig's butt.

Liu Jianhong was a little surprised to see that Zhang Yang didn't break out any serious news, but instead acted like a commentator.

When explaining the game occasionally, the interview is also in progress.

The recording of the program was relatively smooth, and there were no sensitive topics about the 'national football' that made Zhang Yang feel embarrassed. This also made Zhang Yang feel more at ease. He was not afraid of talking about these things, but disgusted.

During the intermission, it is the most important time of this interview.

Liu Jianhong first asked about Zhang Yang's performance in Marseille this past season, and congratulated him on winning the Ligue [-] Golden Boot. Then the question focused on Zhang Yang's future in Marseille in the new season.

This is also the highlight of the "Football Night" interview program about Zhang Yang. The "Football Night" program team knows what the fans are most concerned about.

Fans of course want to know what Zhang Yang is thinking now, and want to know, where is Zhang Yang in the new season?Do you want to stay in Marseille, or move to other giants?
