Grass roots glory

Chapter 1076
The 43-year-old Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino found Son Heung-min alone before the game started.

"Son, do you regard Zhou as your biggest opponent?"

Sun Xingmin looked at the head coach's serious eyes, thought for a while, and said honestly: "He is my biggest goal, and I don't want to be against him now."

Pochettino frowned, and then stretched out: "Never feel that you are not good, son, you have the opportunity to surpass the height of your predecessor Park Ji-sung, who is close to Zhou. But I am very happy that you can think so, remember, don't think about it all the time Trying to do better than him is not a good thing. When you bring that mentality out on the court, it cloudes your judgment."

Sun Xingmin didn't speak, but he was still a little upset in his heart. After all, he was a little uncomfortable to hear his coach say that. "Such a concept, from the age of seven to 16, Sun Xingmin's football enlightenment was still in South Korea. Although many European media admitted that his physical fitness and tactical awareness were completely European, but in this deep concept, he and the general meaning The South Korean players on the game are no different.

As for showing humility in front of the Korean media?That was learned later in the German football environment - provoking opponents does not prove how strong you are.

Sun Xingmin has never said such a thing in the Bundesliga, because he knows very well that once he says this, he will inevitably face criticism. Zhou Tiancheng's strength is recognized by the entire Bundesliga, and the data of 41 goals in a single season is hanging there. Whether it was his last club Leverkusen or the Hamburg where he debuted, which team has not been abused?
Chasing Zhou Tiancheng to the Premier League, but what frustrates him is one season, only one season Zhou Tiancheng regained a very good reputation here, and when he came to Manchester's territory, Sun Xingmin could only hide it even if he didn't want it in his heart.

Of course, in the first away game of the new season, Pochettino will not start with a player like him who has not fully integrated into the tactical system. Sun Xingmin can only sit on the bench of the visiting team and watch Zhou Tiancheng play. The moment you step into the stadium, you can enjoy the cheers of everyone, and you will be treated like stars holding the moon.

The live camera cut to Zhou Tiancheng on the field, and then took care of Sun Xingmin on the bench. The live director was very aware of the common ground between these two players. Maybe he didn’t know the history of China and South Korea on the football field. There are grievances and grievances, but the two Asian players are rivals to each other, and people always look forward to the rivalry between them.

The camera cuts to Sun Xingmin who is looking at Old Trafford like grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. The voice of pp sports commentator Zhan Jun rang out: "Sun Xingmin, a Korean striker from Leverkusen, in this theater of dreams, he is only Being able to be a spectator, watch our football king Zhou Tiancheng up close and set an example for him - come to the Premier League, you have to play like this!"

Pochettino has a 4-3-3 formation. When he came to Old Trafford, he never thought about taking away a point with a conservative attitude. He had to strive for a good start for the new season.

However, facing Manchester United, they quickly showed their disadvantages on the scene.

Mourinho made adjustments in this game, and Lukaku returned to the starting position. Mourinho proved with practical actions that he did not distrust him. Facing such an opponent, his physical fitness is so strong that it is unreasonable The heavy hammer is the best weapon.

A formation like Pochettino is always ready for Manchester United to bite back if it is mishandled. In the midfield, he has England national youth player Ali, Danish international Christian Eriksen, and Belgian international Moussa Dembele. , All of them can act as midfield engines. On both sides, Lennon and Argentine winger Lamela are speed wingers, plus Harry Kane, who is known as the hope of England's striker.Although there are Alderweireld and Vertonghen, the two main defenders of the Belgian national team, defense has never been Tottenham's tradition, nor is it the rhythm of Pochettino.

But he didn't see the rhythm he wanted from the beginning of the game-Matic actively pressed up as a midfielder to participate in the frontcourt counterattack, can't he handle it alone? OK, it has never been a problem. Zhou Tiancheng is not a person who only thinks about how to attack in the midfielder position.

Even the strongest Dembele couldn't handle Zhou Tiancheng's tackle from behind, and the ball was taken away directly.Turn around and take a long shot with one step.

There was cheering at Old Trafford, but it only lasted five seconds as French goalkeeper Lloris made a flying save (climax).

But this is enough. At least this attack can be seen that Tottenham have no advantage in the midfield, and it is only a matter of time before they lose the ball.

It's just that Manchester United fans still look forward to Zhou Tiancheng being able to take the top spot for Manchester United. Manchester United has ambitious goals in the new season, and they should start with everyone's favorite and most trusted prince!
Zhou Tiancheng never disappoints the fans who were expecting him. In the 301st minute, Alderweireld made a header to clear the siege. Zhou Tiancheng followed up with two steps from the periphery and directly volleyed.

The kick came quite suddenly. Dembele behind him and Vertonghen in front of him already felt that something was wrong, but they were still waiting for the ball to hit the ground to make the next move. As a result, Zhou Tianchang's leg whipped hard like a whip. , Vertonghen only felt a gust of wind blowing over his head, and quickly turned his head to see that Lloris had fallen into the goal with the ball, and he was still hanging on the net.

The cheers that had just fallen were raised again, and the entire Old Trafford stadium was filled with cheers, and the uniform voice at the end of last season sounded again.

"Prince! Zhou!"

"Prince! Zhou!"

"Prince! Zhou!"

The prince's goal can be so domineering!
"GOOOOOOOAL!!!!!! Here it comes! Here it comes! This is Zhou Tiancheng's goal! World wave, familiar? Starting from Tottenham!"

In fact, Yang Cheng has a familiar feeling in his heart. He has seen a very similar goal many years ago. In the summer of 2005, Chinese fans felt the beginning of hope.

It’s just that he didn’t say it, and these England fans wouldn’t feel the same way when he said it, but the Chinese fans immediately thought of it. PP Sports commentator Zhan Jun also said with a smile: “This kick, oh, Zhou Yi kick! Haha Just kidding. Is this long shot familiar? It feels like Zhao Xuri's volley kick to kill Turkey in the 2005 World Youth Championship, oh, this is time!"

Many fans lamented that Zhao Xuri got the nickname "Zhao Yijiao" because of that kick at the beginning, but after so many years, the fans realized how appropriate this nickname is - there is only this kick in a lifetime...

Of course, Zhou Tiancheng is not the only kick. This nickname should be placed on him, and it can restore the original meaning that all fans expected: just one kick, and the opponent is dealt with!
