Grass roots glory

Chapter 962
Does Van Gaal dare not let go?
He really didn't have the guts, otherwise he wouldn't have faced an FA Cup game where he would lose unless he died, and he would have Zhou Tiancheng in the starting lineup.

This was a sign of lack of self-confidence, which showed that Van Gaal also knew in his heart that Zhou Tiancheng's absence on the court might be the biggest cause of death.

But Chinese journalists don't pay attention to this game at all now, all their thoughts are the Asian Cup.It was a mistake for Van Gaal to insist on keeping Zhou Tiancheng to play this game, and he still needs to start.

Manchester United suppressed their opponents on the field from the first minute and played with all the main players. There is no suspense at all.It's just that Zhou Tiancheng didn't intend to slow down the pace. After 1 minutes, he had already achieved a two-goal lead, and he still called his teammates to press up according to the normal rhythm.

To be honest, these reporters were really worried. After this game, the Asian Cup will be held soon, and the Premier League has no winter break. Zhou Tiancheng doesn't even have any rest time.

That's not to mention, there is no direct domestic flight from Somerset County. Even if you leave after the game, you have to change planes halfway, and the road is quite tossing.

While watching the game scene, Zhan Jun sighed with emotion: "Zhou Tiancheng, it should be said that he is a leading role model for all professional players. He has an absolutely mature consciousness and an indestructible strong psychology. He is not the only one who possesses these, but most importantly, treat The heart of a strong player who never slackens in any game. It’s just that we only have one Zhou Tiancheng, so it’s too hard for him.”

Hearing what Zhan Jun said, many fans began to swipe real-time comments on the barrage, really don't want Zhou Tiancheng to come back.

"What's the fuss? For the Asian Cup, let's let Zhou Tiancheng play at Manchester United honestly. I'm really afraid of Chef Fan. Without Zhou Tiancheng's finale, it might be a mess when the whole banquet is about to be completed."

"Actually, it doesn't matter. At Zhou Tiancheng's level, it's a bug to play against an Asian team. To play against an Asian team, you need a king? Jiang Hao and the others at the silver level in Europe are almost enough."

It's not scary to say so, but the fans can't decide anything.Now we can only hope that Van Gaal will be a little more flexible. Now that the victory has been sealed, Zhou Tiancheng can take a rest in the second half.

Manchester United took a 3-0 lead in the first half. In the halftime lounge, Van Gaal said to Zhou Tiancheng: "Zhou, you can come down and rest in the second half, and you don't need to play any more."

Zhou Tiancheng didn't feel anything, but Van Gaal then turned to the other players with a more serious expression: "Zhou is going to another arena to fight for honor, but this has nothing to do with you. On the contrary, it requires each of you to be more crazy, etc. For the people who fed the bread for a week, now you have to run to grab it yourself, the opportunity is obtained by grabbing it!"

Van Gaal gave instructions to everyone almost in a roaring tone. From his perspective, it is understandable what kind of helplessness this is.Without Zhou Tiancheng, in fact, his performance to the team is not so solid.

This second half happened to be a rehearsal opportunity... Although he didn't expect to get much effect in front of Yeovil, who was a complete fish, but at least everyone on the field had to adapt to this gap.

Zhou Tiancheng was preparing to leave after the game. His backpack was much bigger than the others. In fact, Rooney was the most uncomfortable for him to be absent for this period of time. He sat in front of Zhou Tiancheng first.

"Zhou, since you have won the championship once, is the Asian Cup still so attractive to you? You are the top four in the World Cup."

Zhou Tiancheng nodded: "So..."

"So the Asian Cup, just treat it as a game and play casually, but I'm afraid I can't play it if you're not here."

Zhou Tiancheng smiled, and patted his chubby face: "Little Fatty, do you think I should do this? Hehe!"

……

The game ended 4:0. After Zhou Tiancheng left the field, Manchester United only scored one goal in the second half in the face of Yeovil's iron barrel formation.

However, this has nothing to do with Zhou Tiancheng for the time being. At any rate, this hurdle has passed. When the "Manchester Evening News" sharply pointed out that Zhou Tiancheng's offensive ability of Manchester United plummeted two levels after the end of the game, he was already on the way to fly to China.

This Asian Cup is held in Australia, and Guangzhou, which has been identified as the first choice city for the national team, is naturally the best choice to simulate the climate in the southern hemisphere.

When Zhou Tiancheng walked out of Baiyun Airport, the reporters who were waiting here in advance pushed a close-up on his face, but Zhou Tiancheng didn't see fatigue on his face.There is no tiredness in his expression, and there is no blood in his eyes.

Seeing that he didn't avoid it, but waved his hand generously at everyone and walked through the crowd, the reporters were in mixed feelings.

If Zhou Tiancheng is not in good condition, there will naturally be more topics for them to discuss, but right now... To be honest, most of the reporters are quite happy deep down.

Everyone's cameras were on Zhou Tiancheng. He had already passed through the crowd, but he turned around suddenly, "By the way, according to everyone's rules, do I need to make a statement? In fact, there is only one sentence, except for the champion, what else?" It's not enough."

The reporters all laughed and shook their heads at Zhou Tiancheng.

Although these remarks were recorded, everyone doesn’t need to express their opinions, and they all have a bottom line in their hearts-if you don’t come back, you may say something else. Now, to say something arrogant but not exaggerated, other teams can Don't play anymore.

Zhou Tiancheng thought that he was in good condition. He had recovered enough energy during the long flight, but Lippi's attitude was very firm.

"Zhou, you just arrived and you have to rest. You are different from them. The rest time is precious to you. We are not going to Australia for tourism, so hurry up."

That's what Lippi requested. Originally, according to his intention, Zhou Tiancheng could rest in peace in his room for two days. He didn't need to investigate, and the running-in time was enough, so his top priority was to rest well.

However, Zhou Tiancheng just didn't practice together with everyone, and practiced set kicks on another unused training ground.

Zhou Tiancheng himself is willing to practice more, Lippi of course has no objection, he asked Zheng Zhi to pay close attention to Zhou Tiancheng's state.

After the team's training session, Zheng Zhi also came back: "Grandpa, I can assure you that your worries are unnecessary. Come and see Zhou Tiancheng's state for yourself."

The whole team's training is over. Zhou Tiancheng is still practicing. There are two wooden boards standing in front of the goal and sideways. The gap in the middle is no more than two fingers wide. They retreat to a distance of about 30 meters. Zhou Tiancheng hits a curve ball , The ball accurately passed through the gap and fell straight to the goal.

Lippi smiled and adjusted his glasses: "I have been a coach for so many years, and this is the first time I see a player like him. Even if Gattuso wants to compete with him in will and physical fitness, he is still far behind."

Zheng Zhi smiled: "Isn't this a good thing? Ha, I don't regret stepping down from the player position at all now."
