Ultimate Demon Sword

Chapter 42 Going to the Club World Cup

Wen Zhihao finally dismissed Nazuo, saying that he needed time to think about it.

Nazuo understood that haste makes waste, so he left a word before leaving, hoping that Wen Zhihao could give him the answer he expected.Milan, welcome back the heroes.

Wen Zhihao's whereabouts have been hyped up by the media, all kinds of speculations are overwhelming, every day Wen Zhihao and his father will receive a lot of strange calls, all from reporters from large and small news organizations, and many staff members of European clubs in China directly approach them, doing the work of Wen Zhihao and his son.

Father Wen is under a lot of pressure every day, and now he urgently hopes that his son can have a professional manager to handle these matters, so that not only can he avoid a lot of disturbance from the outside world, but also can better protect Wen Zhihao's vital interests.

A week later, the short holiday ended, and Evergrande withdrew its team to prepare for the Club World Cup in December.This is the final match of Evergrande in the 12 season, and it is also the last competition that Wen Zhihao participated in on behalf of Evergrande.

Perhaps due to the interference of various transfer rumors after the AFC Champions League, Wen Zhihao was out of shape in the first training session after returning to the team. Some players who could not play on the bench complained in private.

Coach Scolari once again demonstrated his ability to control the team.Not only suppressed all these voices of doubt in the team, but also implemented a complete closure of the team's training to isolate the interference from the outside world to the greatest extent.

Time does not kill everything, but it may make some things continue to ferment.Every day, many fans of Wen Zhihao care about Wen Zhihao's next choice through Weibo, and some fans enthusiastically give their own suggestions.

Seeing that so many people care about him, Wen Zhihao will also take time to interact with fans after training.When he was feeling irritable during the holidays, Wen Zhihao couldn't help posting a Weibo complaint: Dealing with the media and various quotations every day, I was exhausted...

In an instant, another large wave of fans came to comfort him, but among the fans who followed Wen Zhihao, a young girl's eyes lit up slightly, and she said to herself: Wen Zhihao, hehe, since we met once, I will help you.

She took out her mobile phone and dialed a number: "Hey, Vio, it's me. Did you say last time that your uncle is a football agent? I know a young man. Ask him if he's interested..."

For several consecutive days, Wen Zhihao's state was quite sluggish. Scolari found him alone and asked, "Dear Wen, why do you feel like a different person, you can't even concentrate on dribbling?"

Wen Zhihao also knew that he was out of shape, so he quickly reflected: "I'm sorry, Da Phil, I've been annoyed recently."

Scolari knew the reason, his face darkened suddenly, and he said to Wen Zhihao with a straight face: "Come with me."

The two stood on the runway inside the base, and Scolari said to Wen Zhihao: "Run! Run! I won't let you stop, don't let me stop!"

Soon there was a figure walking like flying on the runway of the base, and an old man with an exaggerated expression yelled crazily: "Quick! Faster! Are you a turtle? Quick!"

Hearing the head coach's shout, Wen Zhihao gritted his teeth and continued to speed up, but Scolari continued to shout: "Have you not eaten? The old lady is faster than you, speed up! Speed ​​up!"

Wen Zhihao immediately increased his speed by another order of magnitude, but Scolari was still dissatisfied, and continued to shout: "Faster! Faster! The opponent's defender is chasing after him, and he will catch up with you soon! Speed ​​up..."

Wen Zhihao's speed has been raised to the limit, and at the same time, bean-sized beads of sweat are dripping on the runway. Scolari is still not satisfied, and continues to shout: "Accelerate! You can go faster! You can do it!"

Wen Zhihao gritted his teeth and wanted to continue speeding up.But the sharp decline in physical fitness made his legs suddenly weaken, and he fell on the runway, unable to stand up again.

Scolari walked up to Wen Zhihao and asked, "How do you feel now?"

Wen Zhihao breathed heavily with his mouth open, he didn't even have the energy to say the word "tired".

"Were you thinking about those messy things that upset you just now?" Scolari continued to ask.

Wen Zhihao subconsciously shook his head.

Scolari nodded slightly, and when Wen Zhihao took a breath, he lifted Wen Zhihao's head, looked him straight in the eyes, and taught like an elder, "Wen, as a professional player, you have to learn not to bring your off-court emotions to the court. You have to remember the feeling just now. When you really put your heart and soul into it, you won't be swayed by insignificant troubles. The only thing you can do is to be yourself, understand?"

In the next few days, Scolari was delighted to see that Wen Zhihao's condition was gradually recovering. Assistant Paul was very surprised: "Hey, Big Phil, Wen's condition has improved significantly compared to the previous few days. I believe he can do his best."

Scolari rolled his eyes in displeasure: "He has always been the best!"

……

Just entering December, the Evergrande team has already flown to Japan to make final preparations for the Club World Cup.

According to the lottery, Evergrande's opponent in the first round is the Central and North American champion Mexico America. If they can advance smoothly, they will face the European champion, Cosmic Team Barcelona in the semi-finals!
Facing Bayern, also a European giant two years ago, Evergrande was almost helpless and lost 0:3.Many media took the draw and started talking about Evergrande's match against Barcelona, ​​automatically ignoring the first-round opponent Mexico America.

Especially when the media learned that Scolari did not even include Wen Zhihao in the starting lineup, they were even more confident.You see, to deal with you, we don't even get the AFC Golden Boots, we are just so arrogant!
Perhaps it was the blind praise from the outside world that made the Evergrande players feel a little bit smug, and Mexico and America were a blow to the head when they came up. No.303 minutes, Colombian international Quintero made a strong pass from Zheng Zhi, and Mexican international Peralta scored with a header in front of Feng Xiaoting. Evergrande fell behind 0:1.

This situation caught everyone by surprise.What's even more unexpected is that the opponent's tactical quality is obviously stronger than that of Evergrande, and it is not at all the so-called belly of the Chinese media, but a strong team with Evergrande that is only strong but not weak.

The commentator Jiayuan said bluntly: "Before the game, the outside world was discussing the match between Evergrande and Barcelona, ​​but now it seems that it may be a more realistic goal to consider how to beat the Mexican America in front of us."

Scolari also knew that he had made a mistake, but fortunately, there was Wen Zhihao, a nuclear-weapon-level killer, on the bench.Wen Zhihao came on the stage in the second half, and Evergrande gradually began to show the strength of the Asian champion. Wen Zhihao assisted Zheng Long to equalize the score in the 80th minute of the game. Just when everyone was preparing for overtime, Wen Zhihao took a corner kick and Paulinho in front of the goal smashed the ball into the opponent's goal.

Coming off the bench, he made two assists and the director reversed the show.Wen Zhihao clenched his fists, lay on the grass and screamed to the sky.Thrilling past the first round, the opponents in the semi-finals are enough to make every football player's adrenaline rush.

European Champions, Cosmos Barcelona!
