Volume 1: Male Haunts, People Pay Attention to Chapter 136 The First Ball
Chapter 136 The First Ball
Being disturbed by Dracula, the contract renewal negotiations between Chen Yingxiong and the club were naturally terminated. Of course, what Sasania said to Advocaat was "temporary pause", and the door to a contract extension was not closed.
Advocaat was a little anxious, he really wanted to keep Chen Yingxiong, but he seemed to have no reason and ability to persuade Chen Yingxiong to stay. Because everyone knows that the Russian Super League is only second-rate in Europe. How can a genius like Chen Yingxiong stay in the Russian League all the time? Even if his performance in Russia's domestic leagues doesn't make him well-known throughout Europe, the upcoming UEFA Cup will definitely make him famous overseas...
At that time, what capital will Zenit St. Petersburg have to keep him?
Advocaat intends to lead the team to achieve enough good results in the UEFA Cup, but at the same time he also knows that this is a very contradictory thing-when his team starts to shine in the UEFA Cup, then the distance from him The fate of the team being dismembered is not far away...
Now he can only make good use of Chen Yingxiong's time in the team.
If Chen Yingxiong insists not to sign with the club, then the club will definitely not wait until the end of next year when his contract expires, and let him leave on a free transfer, so the only result is that Chen Yingxiong will be sold by the team next summer. You can also earn some transfer fees. If Chen Yingxiong performed well in the UEFA Cup, he might be able to sell for a good price.
Moreover, Chen Yingxiong's contract expires at the end of the year, so it means that on July 1, he can bypass Zenit St. Petersburg and negotiate freely with other clubs. After the personal contract is negotiated, he only needs to wait until the end of the 2008 season before he can join the team as a free agent in January 2009.
At that time, Zenit St. Petersburg will definitely be short of people and money.
So in order to prevent this from happening, Zenit has to desperately find a home for Chen Yingxiong. Maybe the team will be able to find him a suitable buyer without waiting until July 1st?
He suddenly felt a pity, not for the team, but for Chen Yingxiong.
With his character, if he goes to other teams, can he be as comfortable as he is in Zenit?
Chen Yingxiong didn't think about going so far away, the league championship was won, and a gleaming glory was added to his honor book.
At the same time, he discovered that this league championship gave him 100,000 experience points!
He startled himself when he opened the page. Since he was upgraded to the seventeenth level in September, he has been promoted three more levels in the past two months, and he is now at the twentieth level.
All the talent points he gained were added to the talent of "Immediate as a Mountain", and now he is almost full of this talent.
His physical confrontation ability has indeed improved significantly. When shooting, even if there is an opponent's collision, he is not as easy to lose his balance as before.
Of course, this is also related to his targeted training of his confrontation ability in the dungeon. Chen Yingxiong sometimes wonders, is this talent improved by his hard training in the dungeon? Or is it a bit of a talent, and with a "whoosh", you will become awesome?
He had just been promoted three days ago, and he was impressed. Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened the webpage today, I found that my experience bar suddenly increased a lot.
He felt strange, so he ran to check the mission system to see if he had inadvertently completed some awesome missions recently.
After looking at it, I realized that there is also a task to win the league championship, and this task gave me 100,000 experience points at once!
There is also an explanation under the task, telling him that since the Russian Super League can only rank sixth in Europe, the rewards for the league championship are not many...
Not much!
One hundred thousand experience points is still "not much"!
Chen Yingxiong wondered how much experience he would gain if he won the number one Premier League title? half a million? Or a million?
Just thinking about it like this, he felt that staying in the Russian league was too hopeless...
At the same time, he is also full of expectations for the reward of the next league top scorer.
The champion of the league is 100,000 experience, what about the top scorer in the league?
Just thinking about him makes me feel excited, and I can't wait for the last round of the league to come quickly!
But before that, he still has a UEFA Cup group match to play...
Zenit St. Petersburg did not celebrate after winning the league title, because they still have to play away in the UEFA Cup group stage.
This time, their opponent is the Greek team Larissa.
Considering that Chen Yingxiong has been fighting continuously during this period and the schedule is intensive, Edvocaat did not let Chen Yingxiong start in this game. Not only him, but also some players have been rotated.
But only Chen Yingxiong, after learning about this arrangement, went to Advocaat's room to find him, and told him that he had a good waist and could take on heavier burdens...
But Advocaat was unmoved and still insisted on making him a substitute. This is what he said to Chen Yingxiong: "You have to give Tyke a chance to play, hero?"
Everyone has almost forgotten about this sad Turkish shooter. After coming to the team, he got the team's highest salary, but now he has become a substitute and is almost forgotten.
Chen Yingxiong saw that the head coach had lifted Tektronix, so he couldn't say anything.
Now I have to wear a thick coat and shrink on the bench to watch the games of my teammates on the court.
In the 39th minute, Kerzakov scored first to help Zenit take the lead in the away game.
Not only is the score leading, Zenit also has an advantage on the scene.
But who would have thought that one minute before the end of the first half, Arshavin was unable to continue the game due to injury and was replaced by Dominguez.
This disrupted Advocaat's deployment, and at the same time disturbed the morale of the army. Arshavin is definitely the number one star in Zenit. His importance to the team even exceeds that of Chen Yingxiong, a super center who can score 25 goals in a season.
His injury will undoubtedly cast a psychological shadow on the team's players-is his injury serious? Will he miss many games?
These thoughts will follow.
As a result, in the second half, Zenit allowed Larissa to score two goals in four minutes, the score became 2:1, and the home team took the lead!
In the fifth minute when the opponent overtook the score and took the lead, Chen Yingxiong, who had been warming up on the sidelines, went into battle.
He replaced Tyke, who was mediocre.
As soon as he played, Zenit's performance changed completely. He is not the kind of free man who can revitalize the team in the frontcourt, but his appearance gave the Zenit team an offensive direction, knowing where to pass the football, instead of hammering the hammer here and there. .
In the 69th minute, Zenit equalized the score. It wasn't Chen Yingxiong who scored the goal, it was indeed him who assisted.
Assisted Domingos with a header.
This is the type of assist he does best, jumping high in the box, relying on his body to be the center of attention, and then sending the ball where he wants it to go.
Then, just wait and cheer!
A draw is of course not enough. Zenit was tied by Alkmaar at home. If facing the weakest team in this group, if they still cannot win, I am afraid that Zenit's UEFA Cup dream this season will be the result. Gotta say goodbye in advance.
So after the equalizer, Zenit's offense was even more ferocious. It didn't look like it was an away game at all, but it looked like it was at home.
In the 77th minute, Zenit's frantic attack paid off.
"Zenit attacked... Tymoshchuk passed the football to Domingos, who retreated to respond, and Domingos went straight! He was blocked by the opponent... The football fell to Chen Yingxiong's feet, and he threw it The football goes wide and goes to Redek Hill.... Cross from the wide! Krzakov! His shot is saved by the keeper...but it's not over! Hero! He appears on... Shot — —gool!!!”
The football saved by the goalkeeper, as if looking for his eyes, flew to Chen Yingxiong on his own initiative. At this time, the defenders in the penalty area were all following Kerzakov, and the goalkeeper also fell to the ground. It's an empty door!
Such an opportunity is no difficulty for Chen Yingxiong, who has been practicing hard shooting with his feet for more than a season. He stretches his feet, tries to relax his body...and then shoots furiously at the ball!
The football flew towards the goalkeeper like a shell fired!
The goalkeeper watched the football fly over and wanted to get up from the ground to block the football, but the speed of the ball was too fast!
For a shot that is close at hand, many people will choose to push lightly, so that the probability of scoring is the highest. But Chen Yingxiong, like a long-range shot, rounded his thighs before shooting.
Fortunately, there are no defensive players around him at this time, otherwise, with such a long preparation time, I am afraid that what he will finally kick is not football, but the foot stretched by the defender...
The football kicked up the net violently, as if all Chen Yingxiong's depression had been dispelled.
Before the football flew into the goal, Chen Yingxiong was depressed. In the UEFA Cup, whether it was the qualifying match or the main match, he did not score a goal, and he was also scheduled to rest in this game.
Now he can be regarded as finding a chance to prove himself-I am not the kind of striker who is an expert in civil wars and an amateur in foreign wars!
Therefore, he was very excited after scoring the goal. In the domestic league, he did not dare to take off his clothes to celebrate because he wanted to compete with Pavlyuchenko for the number of goals, so as not to be automatically suspended due to accumulated yellow cards. He doesn't care about it in the UEFA Cup. Currently, he doesn't have a single yellow card. He can take off his shirt to his heart's content, showing off his muscles, and... the lifelike giant bear on his back!
"Oh! This is the hero's first goal in the European competition!" The Chinese reporters who followed the team to the away game in the stands were also excited.
Some UW reporters knew that this was the second goal scored by a Chinese player in the UEFA Cup—the first goal came from Sun Jihai's 5-0 home win against Welsh TNS by Manchester City on August 15, 2003 In the team's game, he scored with a header. This goal is also the only goal scored by a Chinese player in the European war.
Sun Jihai had been waiting lonely and alone for too long on the European glory list of Chinese players, and now, the second person was finally born!
After undressing and celebrating, Chen Yingxiong turned over the jersey and showed the side with his name and number printed on it in front of the camera lens.
Just like when he just set foot on the first game of professional football, after scoring a goal, he wants to make his name remembered in Russia.
Now, he wants to let the whole of Europe remember this name.
But it doesn't matter if you don't remember this time.
Japan is long to come, and there is plenty of time for the whole of Europe to go from being unfamiliar to knowing, and then becoming familiar with the name.
