Chapter 176 Homecoming
This FA Cup game has been a week since the last round of the league, and the international game will soon be ushered in, so Moyes does not need to consider the issue of lineup rotation. In order to ensure promotion and allow Lin Yi to have more time to practice the new system, Everton played almost all the main players.

It may be due to the limited strength of the opponent, or it may be due to the blessing of Ji Dong, the new golden boy, today's game went extremely smoothly.

Everton broke the deadlock in the 18th minute, and the goal happened to be Lin Yi, who brought them good luck.

Ross Barkley's cross from the right was meant for Saha, but the Frenchman missed the point.Who would have thought that if the east side is not bright and the west side is bright, football will find Lin Yi who is "walking aimlessly", and facing the empty door, Lin Yi will easily score the goal.

1: 0.

It's not that Blackburn didn't resist, but they still failed to score under the crushing of Everton's Premier League team.

In the 25th minute, Blackpool formed a quick counterattack after completing a high-quality side defense. When the football came to the middle of Everton's penalty area, Cousins' shot from Blackpool was directly intercepted by Lin Yi from the diagonal rear.

This shot was considered Blackpool's best chance of the game after the game.Sadly, Cousins ​​was stillborn when the football was only 2 meters away from his feet.

At the last moment of the first half, Everton played exquisite cooperation in the frontcourt. Rodwell's header was directed to Saha, and the French headed to the left to pass to Lin Yi.

2: 0.

In the second half, Moyes replaced Fellaini and Pienaar, who were about to have tasks for the national team, and replaced them with two second-team players.

After the substitution, Everton's strength has been affected to a certain extent, and the midfield control has also declined to a certain extent, but it is still enough to cope with the Blackpool game.

In the 56th minute, Lin Yi stole Scotta's ball from outside the penalty area and hit the goal directly. The Blackpool goalkeeper did not respond, but unfortunately, Lin Yi's shot was rejected by the crossbar.

Blackpool, who escaped unharmed, was hit three minutes later. Lin Yi sent a super long pass over 3 meters from his own backcourt. The football directly found Lin Yi's younger brother Ross Barkley. The captain of the England National Youth Team stopped the ball and directly chose to shoot.

3: 0.

Everton sealed the victory.

All the fans cheered wildly for this goal, it was so beautiful, Lin Yi's pass was too precise, the timing was also very good, Barkley's shot was also very good, the combination of the two was perfect.

Ji Dong is the favorite fan of Everton fans now, and Barkley is their real "one of them", and is Everton's captain candidate for the next 10 years. How can such a goal not make people crazy.

When the scene of Barkley kissing the jersey in front of the camera spread to the eyes of every fan, countless old fans were tearful, and they seemed to be witnessing the growth history of a generation of legendary captains.

The score of 3:0 was maintained until the end of the game. If Lin Yi wanted to collect goals and assists, he would not have no chance. However, compared with collecting data from weak teams, Lin Yi valued the accumulation of experience in the new system more.

Blackpool, the biggest dark horse in the FA Cup this season, finally fell at the feet of Everton after eliminating two Premier League teams, Wolves and Arsenal. Since then, the dark horse has fallen.

After the victory in this game, Everton successfully advanced to the top 8 of the FA Cup. Their next opponent will be the black cat Sunderland.

On the second night after the game, Lin Yi's girlfriend Zhao Liying arranged a grand party in a high-end restaurant in Liverpool City as the hostess.

Those invited include Lin Yi's Everton teammates, coaching staff and their families, as well as Manchester United's Ferguson and Giggs, and of course Lin's old friends Balotelli and Henry.

Doorman Bernant and Blue Blood Billy were also on the invitation list, and the last ones to be invited were several senior executives of the Stellar Club.

In the end, neither Ferguson nor Moyes was present, and Henry did not show up because he had something to go back to France. The others all attended the party with their female companions in costumes.

This banquet was only the first part of the celebration, and it was Lin Yi who specially thanked those who helped him in England.When Lin Yi returns to China and then to the UK, Puma and other sponsors of Lin Yi will jointly hold two thank-you meetings for Lin Yi. This is actually Lin Yi helping the sponsors to do publicity, which is a kind of commercial promotion. After all, Lin Yi won the award and these companies have contributed a lot to fueling the flames.

After the banquet, Lin Yi took his girlfriend and manager to London by car, and then flew directly to Shanghai from London.

The ancients said, riches and honor do not return to their hometowns, such as traveling at night in brocade clothes!
Lin Yi's return to China this time is to show the people of the whole country the Golden Boy Award, so that they can also experience the honor of European football up close and make them happy, just like what Shevchenko and Weah did back then.

Ji Dong knew that someone would pick him up in Shanghai this time, and there would be quite a few people.But when the plane landed in Shanghai, Lin Yi realized how grand the scene was.

People from the Football Association sent a commissioner to pick them up, and Evergrande also sent an old acquaintance. In addition, the leaders of the SH city government who are in charge of sports also came.

It was the first time for Lin Yi to enjoy the treatment inside the airport. Even the media and photography here are from official media such as CCTV and Dragon TV, or from official photographers such as Xinhua News Agency.

Lin Yi thought it was nothing to accept the flowers arranged by the Football Association, but his face twitched when he saw the band. When will I, Lin Yi, be able to accept such a large-scale reception.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Lin Yi knew that this would be of great help to his career, so he accepted everyone's praise with a smile on his face, and Lin Yi's knowledge of current affairs and correct three views were all loved by the official media.

After listening to the leadership's teachings and accepting interviews from the official media, Lin Yi rejected the suggestion to leave the airport through a special passage. He insisted on going to the pick-up hall, which is where Lin Yi most wanted to go and where he most wanted the trophy to appear.

At this time, the reception hall was already crowded with people. The fans who came today were a bit chaotic. They were not only wearing jerseys of Evergrande and the Chinese national team, but also various jerseys of Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid. They represented different camps, but at the moment they were ordinary Chinese fans to welcome the Chinese compatriots who had won honor for their country.

"Lin Yi has come out!"

I don't know who uttered the first voice, the scene was like boiling, and countless fans flocked forward to meet their idols.

Sure enough, Ji Dong appeared in front of everyone.

The security personnel at the scene were most worried. They had already transferred all the security forces that could be mobilized from the airport to this area, and added two teams of armed police to help maintain security. However, it seemed that the fanatical fans would break through the security circle sooner or later. In case of mass incidents, no one could get away with it.

The media will always get preferential treatment. They are within the security circle, so they can rush up as soon as Lin Yi appears. Then they often make short microphones, and all large and small recording equipment are stretched out in front of Lin Yi. Some media are eager to put the equipment in Lin Yi's mouth.

Ji Dong will not change his style just because today is a happy day, the order of the fans first and then the media cannot be messed up.

It happened that a captain of the armed police ran over to Ji Dong for help.

"Jin Yi, the situation here is a bit messy, it's not appropriate to let you go now, we need your help to maintain order, otherwise something big will happen."

"Okay, no problem, what do I need to do?"

Lin Yi took advantage of the opportunity to break through the encirclement of the media and walked towards the fans with the captain.

The fans saw Lin Yi stepping forward, and the impact on the warning circle became more intense. The fans in front were attacking the hand-in-hand warning circle, while the fans behind kept surging forward, like waves after waves.

Some young and female fans were already a little shaky, as if they were about to fall at any moment. Lin Yi couldn't imagine how serious the consequences would be if there was a stampede.

Ding Weijie and Zhao Liying were behind Lin Yi. They had never seen fans so fanatical. Zhao Liying, who was less courageous, turned pale with fright. The fans in front of her could no longer be described as fanatical.

The onslaught of the fans had to be stopped immediately. With the help of the armed police, Lin Yi climbed up the guardrail at the exit, and then took the loudspeaker handed over by the armed police.

Crazy fans saw Ji Dong climbing up the guardrail, but they didn't see a few armed policemen below who were grabbing his feet to prevent his feet from slipping. The fans thought Ji Dong was interacting with them, so they became even crazier.

"Everyone, everyone, stop, stop, can you hear me? Friends who hear it, stop!"

Ji Dong was afraid that his voice would not be loud enough, so he almost yelled out.

Children listen to teachers most, and fans listen to idols most. Hearing Lin Yi's appeal, the fanatical fans slowed down their movements one after another. They all wanted to hear what Lin Yi had to say.

"Everyone, everyone must pay attention to safety. Such an impact is very dangerous. There are girls and children ahead, so be careful."

Seeing that everyone stopped slowly, Ji Dong's speech speed also slowed down.The armed police and security guards next to him were obviously relieved.

"Well, I know that everyone wants to see me and the Golden Boy Award trophy, so I deliberately brought it back to China, and I don't want to bring the trophy back to the UK. I will put the trophy in China. At present, my agent is negotiating with several units. This trophy will be exhibited for a period of time.

And I will try my best to satisfy everyone’s mood of looking at the trophy today. I will show you the trophy later, and there will be autographs and group photos later, but the premise is that everyone pay attention to safety. If it is as messy as before, I will be invited out by the security personnel. "

"Okay, let's step back and pay attention to safety!"

"Yes, yes, be careful!"

"That's right, everyone stand back, and no one should fucking interfere with my autographed photo."

Seeing that the fans finally calmed down, the staff at the scene finally stopped sweating, and the bell tieer was needed to untie the bell.

Seeing that the crowd stopped commotion, Lin Yi took the Golden Boy Award trophy from Zhao Liying's hand and raised it high towards the fans. There was warm cheers and applause at the scene, and some senior fans burst into tears.

For a moment, the lights were on, and Lin Yi's heroic posture holding the trophy was frozen by many people.

……

After finishing the pick-up at the Shanghai airport, Lin Yi realized for the first time that Chinese football fans yearn for honor, for being recognized by mainstream leagues and the football market.

Lin Yi fulfilled almost all their fantasies about Chinese players. He has strong personal strength, first-class statistics, signed with a wealthy club, has a positive image, has high media exposure, and loves Chinese fans.

After the news broadcast, Lin Yi can already be called the No.1 active player in China. As long as Lin Yi can lead the Chinese team to move forward, he will soon become the number one athlete in Chinese history, such as leading Chinese football to enter the World Cup again.

After staying in Shanghai for half a day, Zhao Liying was taken away by Sister Qing who came to pick up the plane. She was about to start her new round of work. Ding Weijie also stayed in Shanghai. He was preparing for the Qinggong reception after the final round of the top 20 with Lin Yi's sponsors.

When Lin Yi appeared at Changsha Huanghua International Airport accompanied by the staff of the Football Association, because of his previous experience at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, the security force was increased a lot this time, and a return fence was used to ensure the safety of the fans, but this did not affect the enthusiasm of the fans who came to pick up the airport.

Because there will be a warm-up match between the national football team and Kuwait tomorrow night, more fans will gather in Changsha than in Shanghai, so the fans who pick up the airport will naturally be more and more crazy.

Fortunately, there was no danger this time, but the media also saw how influential Ji Dong was.

Ji Dong has become a big trend in the country. No one can deny this. Those media who offended or even blocked by Ji Yi before complained endlessly. Now they can only hide in a corner and secretly shoot related news about Ji Dong. The first-hand news has nothing to do with them.

Speaking of the warm-up match tomorrow night, I have a very interesting topic.Lin Yi was given a yellow card after the game for the first time because he insulted the opponent's player as a fool in the away game against Singapore, and Lin Yi himself was carrying a yellow card, so Lin Yi was suspended for one game for accumulative yellow cards.

Unexpectedly, the Chinese team has found an opponent in the warm-up match, and the opponent is Kuwait from West Asia.

It turns out that Kuwaiti football has developed rapidly in recent years, but they have been unable to grab more resources and fruits in West Asian football, so the wealthy Kuwaitis intend to run for the next AFC chairman.

The Kuwaitis found the support of the Chinese Football Association, the big benefactor of the AFC, and the Chinese Football Association knew that they could not get the highest seat in the AFC, so they reached some kind of agreement with Kuwait in private.

This time, Kuwait didn't care about the threat of the AFC, but wanted to play a warm-up match with the Chinese team. In this way, Lin Yi used this game to successfully shuffle the cards. In the last match against Jordan, Lin Yi was eligible to play.

Well done, this was Lin Yi's first thought when he received the notice from the Football Association.It seems that for so many years, the Chinese Football Association has not done nothing, and it is still making arrangements secretly.

Lin Yi is looking forward to, looking forward to the changes in the AFC, or looking forward to the changes in Chinese football in the AFC, maybe not far away.

……

Warm-up matches are sometimes called friendlies and this match against Kuwait really showed that!
　European football has entered the harvest season from now on. Manchester City won the first championship this morning. I don’t know which team everyone supports!Come to the comment area to talk about it. First of all, say yes, communicate friendly, and don't spray others.Ask for monthly tickets and recommended tickets.
