Chapter 663 Busy Spring Festival

Oh, forgot all about it.

In mid-January, FIFA held its annual awards ceremony in Switzerland.

By virtue of winning the Champions League, La Liga, and Copa del Rey in the 14-15 season, as well as the European Super Cup and Club World Cup in the second half of the year, plus the runner-up of the America's Cup at the national team level... Barcelona's ace Messi beat Ronaldo and Teammate Neymar won the 2015 FIFA Ballon d'Or.

This is the third Ballon d'Or in his personal career (2009, 2010, 2015), and he is officially tied with Platini, Cruyff, Van Basten, and... Long Special.

Since Long Shute and Liverpool can only participate in the Europa League this season and almost 100% missed the 2016 Ballon d'Or, Messi is still the most likely favorite to win the Ballon d'Or for the fourth time.

As for Ronaldo... His second Golden Ball in 2014, in the eyes of many people, was just picked up while Long Shute was seriously injured!
How could he be qualified to be compared with the club king? !

2016 2 Month 6 Day.

This is the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month in the Chinese lunar calendar.

The vast majority of Chinese people have finished a year of hard work and began to enjoy the rare Spring Festival holiday.

"28, hair your face."

In many places in the north, according to traditional customs, on the evening of this day, women will prepare pasta, steamed buns, flower rolls, jujube flower cakes, oil cakes, and noodles...

The men carried benches and ladders, and posted couplets, blessings and window grilles outside the door.

Of course, the latter job looks much simpler.

So these lazy men quickly sat back on the sofa and turned on the TV.

If they just switched to the sports channel, they might see a slightly old red stadium.

On the outer billboard of the stadium, there may be a blessing flashing slowly:

"Liverpool Club wishes all Chinese people a happy Chinese New Year! Great luck in the Year of the Monkey! The red envelopes are rolling in! Come and click on the Liverpool Mall to buy the Year of the Monkey commemorative jersey..."
-
For Liverpool, being killed by Leicester City at the last moment is definitely the worst loss of the season, and it is also a blow to them who have just experienced an extremely wonderful January!
This defeat may have had a huge impact on Long Shute's prestige within the club-because he also played a full 90 minutes in that game!

Long Shute doesn't care about the curse of "the best team of the month must suffer bad luck in the second month", because he has personally broken many curses in his short career.

But he had to pick himself up because he didn't have time to dwell on past failures.

On February 2, on this day, Liverpool ushered in their opponents in the 6th round of the league at Anfield.

Black cat, Sunderland.
-
In many western countries, black cats are unlucky symbols, representing impending bad luck and even death.

However, for the Chinese, black cats can ward off evil spirits and symbolize auspiciousness and wealth.

And it just so happened that the Liverpool captain's account book...is from China!
"Wow...wow!"

An uncontrollable exclamation sounded from the sky above Anfield.

This voice comes from George Sefton, who has worked here for more than 20 years. This 67-year-old man still has amazing lung capacity and can spit out a long list of Liverpool dialects that outsiders can't understand at all like a young man:

"He did it! After a tough week, the high-speed Liverpool train starts again! Look at our captain! He gave us a hearty goal performance at Anfield!"

Maybe other players are still a little out of shape, but Long Shute has found his best self.

He looked at the two lines of bright red data on the electronic screen:

Liverpool 7-0 Sunderland.

Long (12, 26, 39, 51, 68, 83, 90).

He scored all the goals in this game alone! -
Once again, the seven-star Lianzhu was staged, allowing Long Shute's league goals to reach the 60 mark. He also tied the league scoring record in a single season held by Everton star Dean for more than 50 years.

The entire Premier League was shocked!

The entire European football world was shocked!

The whole world trembled with fright at such a thing!
It took Dean 39 league games that year to complete the feat of 60 goals, averaging 1.54 goals per game.

But Long Shute... only took 21 games!
Goals per game... 2.86!
-
"Congratulations on tying the historical record!"

"Liverpool Echo" team reporter Glenn Davos wanted to flatter the team boss in the post-match interview.

But Long Shute was not overly happy:
"It's just a tie. It's not worth celebrating. If you want to make an interview, please make an appointment until after the next game. See you later."

Then he really said goodbye to the reporter.

Throw the team reporter of Liverpool's local media into the wind and feel the cold wind from February in Anfield alone...
-
This season is worthy of the name of chaos. When Liverpool bloodbathed Sunderland 7-0, their main title rival, Leicester City, swept the Blue Moon 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium. The difference between the two teams is still 7 points.

It's an incredible result.

Nearly two-thirds of the league has been played. Leicester City has defeated countless powerful opponents. No one in the entire Premier League will underestimate their existence, but the majestic Manchester City is still defeated by their opponents at their home court!
This world is much crazier than imagined.
-
February 2, the second day of the Chinese New Year.

This is the day to visit relatives and friends, and it is also the day to go back to her natal home.

However, Long Shute did not follow Emma back to her natal home, because his daughter-in-law had already flown to the United States to start a new work task.

Although in the second half of 2014, in order to accompany her seriously injured husband, Emma Watson turned down all her jobs, which made the British little witch, who was in the transition period of her career, almost have no exposure and attention for nearly a year. focus on.

But perhaps it was the almost one-year companionship that caused her public image to suddenly undergo a huge reversal. The freckled girl who was a bit reckless, arrogant, and repulsive from others seemed to have finally grown into a responsible, A responsible mature woman.

When she returned to work, she suddenly found that she had more job opportunities than she imagined, and even some Chinese directors sent invitations to her—the money there was much better than Hollywood...

It's just that her acting skills... really need to be polished.

Even Long Shute thought so.
-
Now that the wife has gone to work hard, it doesn't make sense for the husband to lie on the bed alone.

On the night of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Liverpool's rotation players collectively appeared at Upton Park in London to challenge their opponents in the fifth round of the FA Cup, West Ham United.

The Hammers' home court has never been easy to chew on, not to mention that they were not prepared to play against Liverpool from the beginning.

This is a decisive cup game. They don't need to compare their offensive ability with Liverpool. As long as they can defend 90 minutes of regular time and 30 minutes of overtime, they can drag the game into a penalty shootout!
As long as they are a little bit luckier, they will be able to defeat Liverpool, which is the most popular this season, and advance to the next round with their heads held high! -
West Ham United's idea is very good, and it is indeed possible to realize it. After all, Leicester City gave them a good demonstration a week ago.

It's a pity that they don't have Kanter, Mahrez and Vardy in their formation, and there is no Italian coach and "tinker" Ranieri with a halo of strong luck.

So when Long Shute scored twice, the Hammers could only lose 1-4 at home to Liverpool as a guest.

Regarding this result, even they themselves said after the game... It seems that they can accept it!
-
February 2, the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

On this Valentine's Day, most of the hard-working Chinese have already started to go to work.

At a house in San Francisco, Emma Watson also received roses and a small gift that her husband ordered online.

"Take it out and use it when you miss me, this is something specially customized according to my size!"

What Long Shute said on the phone sounded weird...

"By the way, this summer, why don't we just spend our vacation in the United States?"
