The first time, the second time.

Chapter 351 Top Ten New Stars! Ronaldo’s special skill is to knock the ball with his heel!

With two consecutive wins at the start and ranking first in the group, England has basically secured qualification for the group.

It can even consider the knockout opponents after qualifying from the group.

The media, as always, wrote various eye-catching headlines and content to praise the team’s outstanding performance.

You know, when you can praise, try to praise as much as possible.

After all, who knows when you will be eliminated and there will be nothing to praise.

In the major media reports, in addition to focusing on the penalty kick of Rooney, the captain and top player of Great Britain, most of the media gave generous praise to Ling Feng’s performance!

“World class!”

“Unparalleled!”

“Young midfield master!”

In two games, he scored one goal and made three assists.

Four of England’s six goals were made by him!

To say he is the strongest thigh of the Three Lions?

It’s not an exaggeration at all!

You know, this is the highest level of national team competition in Europe!

Even though the competition system of this European Cup has been reformed, it has expanded from 16 teams to 24, allowing some weaker European teams to taste the wonderful taste of participating in the European Cup.

However, the team that can enter the finals of the European Cup is definitely not a weak team.

And England’s opponents in the first two games, Russia and Wales, are not weak either.

The key is that Ling Feng just celebrated his 21st birthday not long ago!

At the age of 21, as the absolute core of the national team, he stepped onto the stage of the European Cup, and shouldered the heavy responsibility of the team’s offense, scoring one goal and three assists.

In comparison, it is already very good for 21-year-old talents of other football powers of the same age group to be able to get stable playing opportunities in the national team.

Previously, The Guardian, which likes to rank and observe new football stars, created a “Top Ten European Cup New Stars”, introducing ten new stars worth looking forward to in this year’s European Cup in France.

Among them, Ling Feng, who participated in the European Cup for the first time, was the first of the top ten new stars!

It is not wrong to say that he is a new star.

After all, he is only 21 years old.

However, as the best in the Premier League and holding the season’s small three crowns, he is far more than a new star.

Among the top ten European Cup new stars, Ling Feng leads the way.

There are White Hart Lane superstar Ali and Red Devils star Rashford, German winger Sane and Dortmund midfielder Weigl, French twin stars “Champion Harvester” Coman and “New Henry” Martial,

There are also Bayern’s new Portuguese golden boy Sanches, Belgian star Origi, Swiss striker Embolo, and Russian rookie Golovin!

Among these people, except Ling Feng, only Martial and Embolo can start in the European Cup.

There is no one who has scored goals and assists!

In horizontal comparison, Ling Feng’s performance in this European Cup is better than the other nine new stars!

Two years ago in the Brazil World Cup, his sudden appearance gave the media and fans all over the UK a lot of surprises.

Now, coming to the stage of the French European Cup, he is not afraid of the stage at all, but has become the creative source of the Three Lions’ offense.

The media and England’s famous players have given him the titles of “Mr. Big Scene” and “Big Heart”.

In addition to more and more nicknames and titles, through the big stage of the European Cup, Ling Feng’s total number of personal social media fans has also unknowingly exceeded 30 million!

Thanks to the double success in the Premier League and the Europa League, this Premier League best player, one of the creators of the “Blue Fox Miracle”, has seen his number of fans soar by 20 million in the past year!

According to statistics from the well-known gossip newspaper “The Sun”, Ling Feng, who debuted for less than three years, has reached the third most in the Premier League in terms of social media fans, second only to Arsenal’s German star Erdog, who has debuted for many years, and Manchester United captain Rooney!

Many media and English celebrities regard Ling Feng as England’s next world superstar after Rooney!

The editor-in-chief of “The Times” even said in the article that if Ling Feng can lead the Three Lions to achieve good results in this European Cup, then he will have completed the first step from a star to a superstar!

What is a superstar?

He has consistently performed at the top level of the league for several seasons, won important championships and personal honors, and performed well in major competitions!

Since his debut, he has played in the finals of domestic cup competitions (FA Cup and League Cup),

In the Europa League final, Ling Feng’s winning rate reached an astonishing 100%!

Moreover, he was the one who decided the outcome of the game!

Superstars should shine their bright stars in huge games!

The surge in the number of fans means that Ling Feng’s popularity and fame in the football world are getting louder and louder.

It is worth mentioning that when Ling Feng completed the achievement of [Social Media Fans Exceed Ten Million], he received the system reward-[Advanced Anti-Injury Card]

[Item Name: Advanced Anti-Injury Card]

[Item Effect: When suffering from any malicious foul action that will cause serious injury, the damage can be rebounded to the opponent! ]

[Number of times the prop can be used: 6/6]

In short, this [Advanced Anti-Injury Card] is an upgraded version of the previous [Anti-Injury Card].

Coincidentally, the previous [Anti-Injury Card] has been consumed unknowingly.

The appearance of this [Advanced Anti-Injury Card] can also allow Ling Feng to run more unscrupulously on the green field.

Because whoever dares to maliciously tackle him will pay a heavy price!

. . .

In a joyful and happy team atmosphere, five days later, the Three Lions ushered in the last round of the group stage in Saint-Etienne.

The opponent is Slovakia!

In this game, Hodgson made a very bold full rotation.

Clyne, Stones, Sturridge, Kane, Rashford, Lingard and other players all got the chance to start.

Compared with the last round against Wales, the starting eleven actually changed ten people!

The only thing that remains unchanged is that as the tactical core of the team, Ling Feng continues to start.

You know, Slovakia is definitely not weak.

They just defeated Russia in the last round and won the first victory of this European Cup. It is also their first time to enter the European Cup finals after many years.

The most critical player in the team is naturally Napoli midfielder Hamsik.

In addition, there are three stars, Skrtel who plays for Liverpool, AC Milan’s strongman Kuzca, and the young central defender Skriniar.

However, apart from these few people, there is nothing worth mentioning about other players.

Even if the lineup is not strong, Slovakia’s team spirit is commendable.

On the field, the style of fighting for every ball is even more awe-inspiring.

Therefore, in the fifteen minutes after the start of the game, England, with a full substitute lineup, was shocked by the strong style of the Slovaks and did not quickly enter the game state.

Instead, Slovakia repeatedly attacked England’s hinterland through teamwork.

Fortunately, Slovakia’s frontcourt players were too weak to threaten the goal guarded by Southampton’s two-meter goalkeeper Fraser Foster.

As the game progressed, under Ling Feng’s constant threading, the Three Lions’ offense gradually improved.

Some of the Three Lions internationals are also very clear that this may be their only chance to start in this European Cup.

After entering the knockout stage, they may not have the opportunity to play at all.

Therefore, they all cherish and focus very much, hoping to use this opportunity to start and show their talents and abilities to the world as much as possible.

Among them, Lin Huang, who was once a teammate of Ling Feng in the Blue Foxes, also made a dazzling performance in his first European Cup appearance in his career!

Compared with Rashford, who started to shoot without thinking when he got the ball on the left, Lingard played with ease.

His range of activities is not limited to the right, but he often cruises to the middle and plays some passing and cutting with Ling Feng.

As long as Ling Feng gets the ball, Lingard will immediately run to the empty space to respond as if he has pressed a switch.

The short pass cooperation between the two in a small range is very smooth, as if they have practiced it many times before.

Even the commentator was amazed:

“Wow!”

“Ling Feng and Lingard played a wonderful two-on-three combination on the right flank!”

“Lingard entered the penalty area and shot!!!”

“Kozachik made a magical save!”

This wonderful combination that almost scored a goal also received warm applause from the English fans in the stands.

Hodgson on the sidelines also smiled faintly.

He brought Lingard with him because of the tacit understanding and good chemistry between Lingard and Ling Feng.

Now judging from the results on the field, his decision is very reasonable!

At this time, the assistant coach Livington also expressed his thoughts:

“It is definitely a wise choice to recruit this kid into the team!”

At the same time, Rooney and Smalling, who are Lingard’s teammates in the club and are sitting on the bench, were also surprised to see Lingard’s eye-catching performance on the field.

Expression.

Huh? !

Jesse is not so good in the club!

How come he seems to be a different person when he joins the national team?

When they saw Ling Feng coming forward to high-five Lingard, the two looked at each other and immediately understood.

Why is Lingard’s performance in the national team better than when he was in the club?

That’s because he has a super midfielder like Ling Feng by his side!

The reason why Ling Feng is regarded as England’s hope and future leader by Hodgson, the media, and the celebrities is not only because he has a historical talent of “the sky is the limit”!

The terrifying growth rate visible to the naked eye!

Superb ability to create opportunities!

More importantly, as a creative offensive midfielder, he can make his teammates better!

In short, Ling Feng is the cornerstone of the team that can be built around him, or the absolute core of his own system!

Therefore, even if the captain and spiritual leader Rooney is not on the court, Ling Feng will be on the court.

Otherwise, this Three Lions team would be like a rootless duckweed, without a backbone.

And Ling Feng did not disappoint Hodgson’s trust in him!

Under his command, the substitute lineup of the Three Lions was like a group of lions out of a cage, constantly rushing towards the heart of Slovakia, revealing their fangs and claws.

Soon, in the 23rd minute of the first half, they tore open the Slovakian front line!

With the wall cooperation between Ling Feng and Lingard on the right, Ling Feng received the ball and broke into the right side of the penalty area, sending a very comfortable arc cross, directly finding Kane’s head.

The Premier League Silver Boot scored his first European Cup goal with a look back at the moon!

After scoring the goal, Kane was also very excited to rush to the corner flag area and slid to his knees!

Then, Ling Feng, Lingard, Ali, Rashford and others also rushed to the corner flag area and slid to their knees together!

The photographer on the sidelines also took a picture of this scene, and it became the front page cover of The Independent the next day.

And their headlines are also very eye-catching:

“The Future!”

24-year-old Lingard, 23-year-old Kane, 21-year-old Ling Feng, 20-year-old Ali, 18-year-old Rashford

In the eyes of the media, these people are already the new generation of the Three Lions!

And just ten minutes after the goal, Rashford, who broke through the left wing, finally raised his head to observe his teammates’ running positions amid Ling Feng’s shouts.

Then he sent a reverse triangle pass.

Although this pass was slightly backward.

However, Ling Feng still relied on his own super reaction and physical fitness to pause suddenly, and then used his left heel to knock past the Slovak midfielder in front of him.

Then he adjusted the ball to his right side in front of him, and pushed the right foot into the dead corner to complete the goal!

This move is Ronaldo’s unique skill – [CHOP]

CHOP originally means chopping, splitting, and chopping.

The actual application in football is to change the direction of the ball by quickly knocking the ball with the heel, so as to achieve the purpose of passing and getting rid of the opponent.

This is the skill opened in the [Player Skill Box] after he won the [PFA Player of the Year] achievement!

[Skill Name: CHOP]

[Skill Level: S]

[Skill Effect: The success rate of knocking the ball with the heel is greatly improved]

[Skill Representative Player: Cristiano Ronaldo]

In the Champions League quarter-finals of Real Madrid against Roma this season, Ronaldo dribbled along the left road at high speed, knocked the ball with his left heel, and cleanly passed Roma defender and captain Florenzi, and then shot a curved ball into the far corner, penetrating the ten fingers of Roma goalkeeper Alisson!

And this goal, which was smooth and ornamental throughout the process, was also the best goal of the Champions League that season!

However, Ling Feng has only acquired this skill for two weeks, so he certainly cannot use it as freely as Ronaldo and integrate it into his own dribbling rhythm.

However, with his explosive physical fitness, he still completed the smooth operation of knocking the ball past the opponent and pushing the ball into the goal!

This goal also received exclamations from the commentators and fans in the stands.

More importantly, this goal helped the Three Lions expand their lead in the first half to 2-0!

After the halftime break, Hodgson directly replaced Ling Feng, who completed one pass and one shot.

In the second half, although England’s offensive was greatly reduced without Ling Feng’s command, Slovakia once launched a counterattack.

But it still failed to threaten England’s goal.

With the referee’s whistle, the game ended!

England won the third round of the group stage with a score of 2-0.

Defeated Slovakia.

So far, the Three Lions have won all three group matches in this European Cup, scoring eight goals and conceding only two goals, and qualified as the top team in Group B with a perfect record!
