Ultimate Demon Sword

Chapter 176 FIFA Virus Immune Body

On the night when the game ended, the Chinese team naturally became the focus of all the spotlights.In the post-match press conference, Chinese football made a big splash in front of foreign media for the first time.Lippi chose to bring Xiao Zhi, who scored the key equalizer, to attend.As far as this game is concerned, Wen Zhihao's icing on the cake goal is not as crucial as Xiao Zhi's equalizer.If Xiao Zhi hadn't scored a key goal when the team's physical fitness was about to dry up, which completely reversed the morale of both sides, it was hard to say whether there would be a second goal.

Facing the cameras of the media, many people did not expect that Xiao Zhi would give up the credit for it.

The reporter asked: "Xiao Zhi, your goal tonight is as precious as gold to the Chinese team. Will this be the most memorable goal in your career?"

This is the first time for Xiao Zhi to face the spotlight of a large number of media. There are also many international media with tall noses and beards. Everyone has a standard answer in their hearts. Most players will choose to take the credit, especially the unknown players like Xiao Zhi.

Facing the camera, Xiao Zhi was a little nervous, and said with an unnatural expression: "I feel very lucky to be able to score in such a crucial game. As a striker, it is my job to seize this kind of opportunity one meter in front of the goal. If I remember this goal in the future, then the meaning of this game must be greater than the goal itself."

Many media at the scene were in an uproar. Many reporters immediately saw that Xiao Zhi was a rookie in dealing with the media. The questioner was a Chinese reporter. He had a much deeper understanding of the Chinese team. Based on his professional sense, he speculated that Xiao Zhi’s words might mean something else. He immediately asked, “So this goal is not very important to you? But the effect of your goal on the Chinese team is well known…”

"No, I just want to thank the person who sent the pass for me, Zhihao. This goal is an opportunity he fought for. The goal is the credit of everyone on the field. I can't eat alone."

To those foreign journalists, this is in line with their traditional impression of Chinese people, who are deliberately modest and cannot confidently accept compliments from others.But Chinese journalists are happy to hear such expressions.It's not that they are all fans of Wen Zhihao, but from Xiao Zhi's words, they really feel that the atmosphere of the national team is very harmonious, there is no phenomenon of crowding each other out in the past, and there is no barrier between returnees and domestic players. Perhaps this is the deep-seated reason why the national team can finally counterattack.

Wen Zhihao did not return to China with the team. After the international match day, La Liga will resume fighting on September [-]th. It will take no more than three days if the game is full. He can only return to Madrid directly from Doha. Zhang Linpeng also feels sorry for Wen Zhihao: "I'm sure the country is now ready to welcome our triumphant return. After being scolded for so many years, we can finally be heroes again. It's a pity that you can't see it."

"Enjoy yourself, hero, goodbye!" Wen Zhihao said goodbye to everyone at the airport, walked to a different terminal, and set off for Madrid.

The Asian qualifiers kicked off on the same day as the European qualifiers, one day earlier than the South American qualifiers. When Wen Zhihao arrived at the Atletico Madrid base, only some first-team players participating in the European qualifiers were training with the team. Godin and Jimenez were still working hard for Uruguay's qualifying places.

Another day later, Godin and Jimenez returned to the team, and all the players who participated in the national team game were gathered.In addition to daily training, everyone will chat with each other about the just-concluded national team competition and next year's World Cup.

France and Spain including Uruguay's promotion to the World Cup is not news, but these players were surprised to learn a piece of news from thousands of miles away before the game: the Chinese team qualified from the Asian region as the second place in the group!
They immediately associated this big news with Wen Zhihao, so Wen Zhihao became the central figure in everyone's conversations.

Saul and Griezmann joked that they hoped to be in a group with the Chinese team. Wen Zhihao responded with a smile on the surface, but his momentum was not weak at all: "It will not be easy for you to choose us as your opponent. Have you really thought about it?"

It was only between him and his teammates that Wen Zhihao would respond in this half-joking way.If it were the media or other unfamiliar fans, Wen Zhihao would have said one sentence directly: "Take us as a soft persimmon? Be careful not to swallow it and choke you to death."

……

Atletico Madrid's next schedule is very intensive. First, they will challenge the powerful Valencia in the third round of the league. Then, on September [-]th, the UEFA Champions League will start. Atletico Madrid will still go away in the first round.Four days later, the league will usher in the league debut at the Wanda Metropolitan Stadium.Playing three games in eight days, and traveling to three places, for these players who have just returned from the national team, whether their physical condition can keep up with the intensive intensity is Simeone's biggest concern.

Griezmann did not go to Valencia with the team, he is still in the suspension period, and Simeone did not want to put Wen Zhihao on the list.However, considering Wen Zhihao's multifunctional use on the field, he finally rejected this idea, but Wen Zhihao will be a substitute this time, that's for sure.

Perhaps Wen Zhihao should blame the untimely arrival of this international match day, otherwise, while Griezmann is still in the suspension period, he can take the opportunity to take the position. It may not be realistic to squeeze Griezmann to the bench, but it is possible to further consolidate his position in the team.

In the last five matches against Valencia, Atletico Madrid has four wins and one tie to remain unbeaten, and has scored more than two goals in four games. The advantage is obvious. Atletico Madrid is very likely to take three points from the Mestalla Stadium.

But this time the situation is a little different.Atlético Madrid still had the upper hand, even in the away game. However, the starting double forwards Vietto and Correa collectively forgot to wear their shooting boots.

A draw with Valencia is normally acceptable, but because he lost points against Girona at the beginning, Simeone has a sense of urgency. Facing an opponent that has not lost in the past three seasons, if he does not win, it will be difficult for the club and the fans.

No. 705 minutes, Simeone changed two people in a row, Wen Zhihao and Torres came on, Vietto and Correa went off, the attack combination of the striker changed, and the horn of the general attack was sounded.

After Wen Zhihao came on the field, he fully played the role of a link between the past and the future. The wide range of running in the front field not only provided fire support for Torres, but also gave Thomas and Saul behind him the confidence to boldly step in and participate in the attack. Valencia suddenly became jittery.Wen Zhihao also contributed to get rid of the two Marseille roundabouts in the double-team, but the last long-range shot missed slightly.

Valencia coach Marcelino couldn't believe this scene. He had a good understanding of Atletico Madrid before the game. Wen Zhihao, who just participated in the national team competition, should have some fluctuations in his physical condition. Why is he still so fierce?

Before Marcelino could figure it out, Wen Zhihao had another shocking performance.Atlético Madrid took a left corner kick, Wen Zhihao leaped high from the back, and the 1.8m[-] central defender Paulista was actually crushed under him. The fans at the Mestalla Stadium suddenly exclaimed. If Wen Zhihao's heroic flying in the air can be captured by the camera, it must be a set of extremely shocking images.A very classic compliment for basketball and track and field applies here as well.

Yellow people can fly too!

The only fly in the ointment is that this highly ornamental and artistic header was pointed out by the goalkeeper Neto with his fingertips.

"Oh-my-God! Is this Klinsmann? Wen perfectly interprets his small body but his energy. He seems to be completely unaffected by FIFA games! Maybe he is a special immune body to the FIFA virus? Haha!"

Garcia made witty remarks and praised Wen Zhihao.

CCTV He Wei was also very pleasantly surprised: "It seems that the incentive effect of qualifying for the World Cup is indeed huge. Wen Zhihao has brought his good form back to the club. He can even contribute such wonderful shots to his work at heights, which he is not good at. Will it help him get some extra points in Simeone's heart?"

In fact, Wen Zhihao knew that this was the result of persistent strength training, and his waist and abdomen strength had been significantly improved.
