Chapter 175 The Years of the Premier League
The Italians don't have much time to lick their wounds. Amidst the noise of the media, Italy ushered in a focus battle with the French team.

Xiangnan sat in the team bus, wearing earphones and a pair of wide sunglasses covering most of his face. Outside the bus, there were Italian fans waving flags and making V-shaped gestures from time to time. Cheer and cheer for your team...

Xiang Nan closed his eyes, a feeling of exhaustion flooded his heart...

There has been no rest for a whole season, and there has been a passionate summer of passion supporting it. Now, the young people caught in the vortex, starting to feel exhausted...

However, Xiang Nan knew that as long as he stepped on the turf of the stadium, he was still the passionate child chasing football with his blood burning...

Memories are rolling in my mind in an instant...

"Hey, Andre, pass the ball!!!" Simao shouted loudly.

"Simao, stop barking. It's no wonder Andre can pass the ball." Lennon's lazy voice.

"goooaaal!!! AND——REA!!!" After scoring the ball in the south, Simao imitated the roar of Moore, the most famous football commentator in Liege, Belgium, and roared like he scored a goal himself. …

On the training ground in the Walloon region, laughter and laughter, along with the pace of growth, come step by step...

*******
On June 2008, 6, the Lech Stadium in Zurich, the floodlights illuminated the entire stadium like daytime, and there was a sea of ​​blue on the stands of the stadium, but the Mediterranean blue of the south stand was replaced by a touch of bright orange as red feet The snipe was grilled, and the French blue in the north stand was also baked into a super big toast with the taste of macaroni...

The contest between brothers and sisters...

"Hi everyone, I'm Huang Jianxiang, and beside me is my partner Dong Pingsheng. The match between Italy and France is about to begin. Let's first take a look at the starting lists of the two teams."

"It seems that the conflict between Xiangnan and Donadoni reported by the media has been completely made public, otherwise, in such an important game, Xiangnan, the top scorer of the Italian team, would actually sit on the bench .”

"Italy only scored two goals before, and they both went south. Now that Donadoni is doing this, he is undoubtedly gambling." Dong Pingsheng ended the topic.

At this time, the live camera of Zurich's Lacey Stadium was also placed on Xiangnan who was on the bench. From time to time, Xiangnan was talking with Aquilani beside him, and noticed that the camera was aimed at him. He stopped talking and looked up. After looking at the game that was about to start in the arena, there was silence.

At this time, it started to rain suddenly, and the rainy night in Zurich was still a bit gloomy, but Xiang Nan suddenly became excited, talking loudly to Aquilani beside him, Donadoni heard the voice, and looked back He glanced, his eyes moved, but he didn't say anything.

*******
"France and Italy were in the same group during the European Championship qualifiers. France won at home and drew away, but Italy won the top spot in the group. Entering the European Championship, the two sides are in the same group. It's a narrow road for enemies!"

The game started.

Italy is wearing a white jersey today, France is the traditional blue jersey.

The first threatening attack of the match between the two sides appeared in the 5th minute. De Rossi returned the pass and was intercepted by Gewu. The Lyon striker advanced along the left. Changing his feet, he suddenly changed direction, trying to break through the Italian left back, as long as he broke through, he would be single-handed.

However, the Italian left-back left the ball with a clean shovel, cut off the ball, and then passed it to Gattuso.

"Looking at Ge Wu's moves, you can understand why he has always been a substitute. He has been selected for the national team since 98. He has played more than 10 games in 30 years. Most of them are substitutes. The iron bench is on the buttocks. .Always lack a little wisdom at critical moments, Zhichangzi, is it because there is no one else who can play in this position? Think about it, Enen, it is true, and indeed there is no one.”

Of course, Xiang Nan didn't hear the ridicule from the "crazy commentator" Huang Jianxiang who was far away in China. He was thinking about what he would do if he faced a tall and long-legged defender like Grosso.

Two minutes later, Italy counterattacked, Zambrotta went down the right, was brought down by Ribery with a lateral tackle, but -
"Franck Ribery fouled Zambrotta, but Ribery seems to be injured?"

"It's time for a substitution. From the looks of it, Ribery has sprained his left ankle or calf and has already been carried off on a stretcher. Domenech has replaced No. 11 Nasri."

"The Chinese fans enjoy themselves watching the football. They named the two coaches 'Duo Brothers'. They both have the surnames Duo, Donadoni and Domenech. However, these two brothers are not having a very easy life now." The scene It was too ordinary. The two teams that had to win to advance were playing too cautiously. Huang Jianxiang couldn't help but make fun of the coaches of both sides.

"Leaving Domenech aside, Donadoni did it all on his own. On the bench, there is the hottest striker of the European team this season, but he doesn't use it."

*******
The game has been going on for 20 minutes, and the score is still 0:0. At this time, on another field, the score between the Dutch team and Romania is also 0:0! !
This is a score neither French fans nor Italian fans want to see.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the field began to be slippery. When Gattuso was dribbling the ball, his foot was mixed with garlic, and the ball was cut off by Nasri. However, the Milan midfielder quickly fell to the ground and tackled the ball. Out of line.

"Penalty kick!!! Penalty kick!! Tony did a great job!! Poor Abidal!! This may be his final farewell to this European Cup!!!"

In the 24th minute of the game, Pirlo's through ball, Bayern Munich striker Tony single-handedly entered the penalty area, and was pulled by Abidal. The referee Michel awarded a penalty and sent Abidal off.

The Italian bench was boiling, and Xiang Nan also jumped up excitedly, waving his arms.

There is no doubt that a penalty kick was scored, and Pirlo's penalty kick knocked down the French goalkeeper Coupe, 1:0! ! !

The balance of victory began to tilt towards the Apennine Peninsula! !

At this time, an embarrassing scene appeared for Donadoni. After scoring a penalty kick, Pirlo celebrated wildly. He came to the stands of the Italian fans at the Lacey Stadium and waved his arms vigorously.

Then, the Milan midfielder made a move that no one could have imagined——
Pirlo ran all the way to the bench next to the court, and had a bear hug with Xiang Nan. The scene of the Lacey Stadium was clearly captured. Pirlo was yelling something in Xiang Nan's ear. excited look.

Uh... I have to say that the on-site director is always the most dedicated. The live camera of the Lacey Stadium quickly shifted to the face of the head coach of the Italian national team, Donadoni, on the coach bench——
The ecstatic Donadoni's face suddenly froze...

"|Pirlo shouldn't do this, it doesn't give Donadoni any face at all."

Uh... I have to say that Huang Jianxiang didn't save Donadoni much face either! !

"Perhaps, after the game, what Pirlo said in Xiangnan's ear will be the focus of media attention. Of course, if Italy advances, people will have the mood and thoughts of gossip."

After Abidal was sent off, the French team was forced to make substitutions.

Domenech used No. 2 Boumsson to replace No. 11 Nasri who had just replaced Franck Ribery who was injured and left the field.

"Nasri can feel the atmosphere of the European Cup, but the young man must not be very happy in his heart."

Xiang Nan looked at Nasri who was walking down the court with a gloomy face, suddenly opened his mouth and smiled, and poked Aquilani beside him with his arm, "Alberto, you said he would meet with Domene Do you want a fight?"

Xiang Nan and Aquilani didn't have much friendship at first, but now, the two guys who were on the bench and were not seen by Donadoni became friends instead.

Uh... this, but, is really...

Aquilani glanced at Xiangnan, who was a little gloating, and knew that the kid in front of him was simply suffering from suffocation on the bench, "I think you might be forgotten by Robert."

At this time, Donadoni's eyes just drifted to this side, and Xiang Nan and Aquilani stopped talking. The two guys on the bench thought about it and found it boring.

*******
The first half of the game has gone into stoppage time, the score is still 1:0, Italy leads France.

In the 44th minute of the game, there was a conflict on the field and Camoranesi was injured, but the French team continued to attack. Annoyed, Pirlo maliciously violated Benzema and was shown a yellow card. The first yellow card against the Dutch team means that if Italy advances, the Milan midfielder will miss the quarter-finals.

Finally, at the end of the first half, Italy entered the intermission with a 1-0 lead.

Xiang Nan and Cassano who walked off the court whispered something, Cassano glanced at Xiang Nan with a puzzled expression...

The studio far away in China obviously noticed this detail——
"Cassano, this Bari boy, was expected to be the pillar of Italy's future at the age of 18. He was called the golden boy. He has no problem with his game skills, but he has some problems with his personality. It's like a celebrity commenting on a star: there is no problem below the neck, but above the neck..."

Huang Jianxiang didn't finish his words, but, what does this mean, anyone on earth can guess...

Uh...just, what is it that Xiang Nan is hooked shoulder to shoulder with Cassano?

Well, it's a problem! !

*******
The second half of the game has begun, and at this moment on another venue, the Netherlands and Romania are still 0:0. This is a dangerous score for Italy. After all, the Romanians only need one goal to bring Italy back to the Mediterranean. Go fishing.

However, obviously, in this game, in addition to the players on the field, there are also the fans of both sides in the stands, because the fans are still paying attention to the score of the other stadium, and Lacey Stadium is also rare. The cheers were very calm, and only when their own team threatened to attack, the fans would cheer.

"This Zurich stadium may be the quietest stadium we have seen this year. Tens of thousands of people seem to be contemplating and thinking quietly. Italy can't wait to play the Netherlands in the second half. Come down, we will help you defend."

However, it is clear that Huang Jianxiang, who is far away in China, still has time for humor.

*******
At 55 minutes into the second half, there was a sudden burst of cheers from the stands of the Italian fans. On another field, the Netherlands led Romania 1-0, which also means that the road to the promotion for the Italians began to become brighter. .

As time passed, the French players also began to get impatient, and the French central defender Gallas seemed to be having sex with Cassano. If the referee hadn't shown mercy, both sides would have received yellow cards.

"Cassano deliberately provoked Galla!!!" After observing for a while, Huang Jianxiang quickly made his judgment.

At this time, Huang Jianxiang remembered the scene that happened in the Premier League. In the game between Chelsea and Arsenal, Gallas and Xiangnan had a conflict. It was because of Gallas' stupid performance that Chelsea defeated Arsenal. In that game, Xiang Nan also scored twice, and after the game, Arsenal captain Gallas also publicly declared that he would not mind breaking Xiang Nan's legs next time he faced Chelsea. For this reason, France He was also fined £50000 by the FA.

"It seems that what Xiang Nan said to Cassano during the intermission will be the same as what Pirlo said to Xiang Nan, and it will become the focus of everyone's attention after the game!!"

In the 81st minute of the game, Cassano dribbled the ball on the edge of the penalty area and was brought down by Gallas. Since the two sides had already had many physical conflicts, the referee Michel decisively showed Gallas a yellow card. And a free kick was awarded.

At this time, something unexpected happened to everyone. Gallas, who was shown a yellow card, rushed to the edge of the court like a crazy gorilla, waved his fists, and rushed towards the Italian bench...

At this moment, Gallas! !You are not alone in the battle! ! !
Tyson, Holyfield, Lewis, their souls are possessed by the Frenchman at this moment——
Uh... a quick whistle from referee Michelle, plus—
A yellow card! !

And then a red card! ! !
Domenech's face became like a pickled green pepper, and he almost roared and drove Gallas back to the locker room.

At this time, a big question mark hovered over the Lacey Stadium in Zurich——
What was the cause of Gallas' sudden insanity?
What is the reason for his mad rush to the Italian bench?
At this time, only Aquilani was talking beside Xiang Nan with a strange expression on his face, and then in the TV camera, Xiang Nan shrugged innocently.

"I just had Antonio say to him, 'Fucking guy in the number 10 shirt', what's the matter?"

Uh... If Gallas heard Xiang Nan's words, he would rush out of the locker room of the French team like a madman. Opposite Gallas, the phrase will pop up——
'Fart fart guy in number 10'! ! !
Uh...God behold, this would drive a gorilla crazy! !

Glancing south towards the player tunnel, he wasn't surprised that Gallas would know that he taught Cassano what he said, because Gallas's jersey number in the French national team is No. 5, not No. 10, only in Arsenal. The club will wear No. 10. In the French national team, Gallas is not eligible to wear No. 10! !

And in the game between Arsenal and Chelsea, Xiang Nan once used "a stinky guy wearing the No. 10 jersey" to irritate Gallas! !

This is also the unforgettable French No. 5! ! !The ruthless words about cutting off Xiangnan's legs will only be released after the game! ! !

"Andre, between you and that French guy?" Aquilani glanced at Xiang Nan suspiciously. Although he felt very happy about Gallas being sent off, he still had doubts. After all, In his impression, this 19-year-old boy is an easy guy to get along with.

"Nothing, this guy said something provocative to me during the Premier League game."

Aquilani looked at Nan, who he knew would tell him next.

"He said, 'CHINESE, pig!!!'" Looking south into the stadium, the French team was lining up the wall, "At that time, I wanted to punch him back to France, but I was stopped by John, now, so , I want to tell him what is Chinese wisdom!!!”

Aquilani looked at Xiang Nan. In the past, the Italian national team did not reject Xiang Nan's Chinese identity too much, but he did not welcome him very much. The strength and goals on the court have won a certain amount of respect. In the football circle, to win the respect of others depends on strength! !

Imagining Gallas who was crazy like a roaring gorilla, Aquilani suddenly felt that he was a teammate of the national team of Chinese descent, with a different thinking from the Latins, which was very interesting, but, suddenly, Rome The midfielder felt that he was starting to like the kid in front of him a little bit.

At this time, the French team's human wall was also lined up. De Rossi was about to take a free kick. Donadoni suddenly shouted to this side——
"Andre, go warm up!!
