Volume 1: When Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention. Chapter 80 Tongyanwuji (First Update Guaranteed)

Liverpool's third goal was indeed the last straw for Arsenal.

Or maybe it's inappropriate to say it's straw, because the ball clearly weighs a thousand tons. Let alone Arsenal, no one else can handle it.

Liverpool's offensives were wave after wave, goal after goal, completely shattering the last bit of luck in the hearts of everyone at Arsenal.

The person who scored such a goal was Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong completed his hat trick.

This is also his forty league goal this season!

After Chen Yingxiong's physical fitness began to decline, although he was the top scorer in the league every season, his number of goals was not many, basically more than 30, and he never reached 40. It's time.

Experts have also seriously analyzed that Chen Yingxiong will never have the opportunity to break 40 goals in the future until he retires. Because with his body, it will become more and more difficult to score goals, and there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to play. The number of goals scored will naturally become less and less.

Doesn't he have such a trend nowadays?

That's why everyone thought that Nacho had scored 28 goals and had a good chance of becoming the league's top scorer.

Unexpectedly, in this last season, Chen Yingxiong once again broke the 40-goal mark.

This was unbelievable to the commentators covering the game.

"This is Chen Yingxiong's forty league goal this season! In his previous seasons, he only scored a maximum of thirty-eight goals! But this season, he only spent less than half a season. He has completed such amazing data! If we give him a full season, how many more surprises can he leave us before he leaves football?"

"An old guy who is about to be 41 years old actually scored 40 goals in only 15 league games! Of course... I must thank Manchester City for their generosity - the hero said in a game against Manchester City He scored thirteen goals like crazy!"

"Is he really almost forty-one?"

"Is he really the one who wants to retire?"

"If such an outstanding player really retires, I believe it will be a huge loss to football and our fans!"

The news that Liverpool had scored another goal reached the Emirates Stadium, and the entire Arsenal team's psychological defense collapsed.

They suddenly felt like they could never beat Liverpool again. Even if they are one point ahead of Liverpool, they will be caught up by the opponent.

The two sides are not on the same level at all!

Fulham took advantage of the Arsenal team's emotional instability and lack of concentration to suddenly launch a counterattack. And scored a goal!

This ball completely killed Arsenal...

If Arsenal is tied by Fulham at home, then Liverpool will suppress Arsenal with a one-point advantage and rise to the top of the league.

The Arsenal people know this, but they did not have any exciting performance after being equalized by Fulham.

Instead, he looked at Fulham celebrating with a blank look on his face.

Hall lowered his head, unable to bear to look at the expressions of those players who were deeply hit.

This season, Arsenal worked hard for so long and finally failed.

"Arsenal is finished!"

The commentator saw the expression of the Arsenal player. He came to a conclusion. "They have no fighting spirit! Although Liverpool's three goals entered the gate of Portsmouth, we looked like we entered the gate of Arsenal... Look at their expressions, this expression makes us It will not be unfamiliar. Because just last season, when Arsenal reversed Liverpool at the last moment and won the league championship, the Liverpool players at that time also had the same expression... Now, the situation has changed, and they have to pay back after they come out to mess around. have to……"

News of Arsenal's equalizer against Fulham reached Fratton Park, and Liverpool fans cheered.

They shouted loudly and told the players on the field the score.

The entire Liverpool team was also inspired, and their offensive became even more intense.

Portsmouth is simply not qualified to fight back against such an opponent.

They were beaten black and blue.

The final score of this game was Liverpool's 6-0 away victory over Portsmouth.

If Liverpool hadn't known that Arsenal had gone from a draw to falling behind at the end, and were a little slack, I'm afraid they would have scored more goals.

But enough is enough for now.

After thirty-six league rounds, Liverpool jumped to first place in the league, while Arsenal fell to second place in the league after losing the game. And the point difference with Liverpool was widened to two points.

Two points may not seem like much.

But with only two rounds left in the league, this is a fatal gap.

Liverpool only needs to win these two games to win the league championship.

So after the game, all major media announced that Liverpool had won the league championship in advance.

They just ignored Arsenal so nakedly.

But Arsenal didn't show anything that others would take seriously.

In fact, the initiative was really in their hands. They scored a goal less than a minute into the game.

As long as we can keep it up, even if we don't score anymore, we can still lead Liverpool by one point if we keep this ball.

If we can win this game, it will be good news for Arsenal's morale. But they didn't.

After taking the lead, they gave in to psychology.

They kept asking about Liverpool's situation, thinking that they were not playing against Fulham at all.

As a result, Liverpool scored two goals in a row and scared their legs to the point of weakness. I completely forgot that no matter how many goals Liverpool scored, they were still one point ahead of Liverpool.

It can only be said that although they won a league championship, this Arsenal team has not won a championship for too long. Winning a championship suddenly did not make them more confident and have the temperament of a championship.

Maybe the media's comments over the past year about how lucky they are as champions have affected them, making them really feel that they are just lucky. As long as Chen Yingxiong returns, they will not win the championship.

But they don't want to think about it. There are 20 teams in the Premier League. In addition to Liverpool, there are also 19 teams. Chen Yingxiong was suddenly suspended. When the opportunity suddenly appeared in front of everyone. Why was it Arsenal, and not some other team, who finally seized the opportunity to become champions?

No one told them this, not even head coach Hall.

This is actually the inertia formed by the struggle between the two factions in Arsenal for ten years-Arsenal people focus all their attention on football style and tactics. But they neglected that in order to become a champion, there is more than just these superficial things. What's inside is what matters most. Do you have the heart of a champion? This is the key factor that determines whether they can become champions.

And the heart of a champion is something Arsenal has lacked since the Wenger era...

So far they haven't been able to get it back.

So it's natural that we can't keep the championship.

※ ※ ※

Although the media is announcing that Liverpool has won the championship in advance.

But within the Liverpool team, there was no sense of relief.

This is mainly because Chen Yingxiong, the team captain and everyone’s idol, did not relax.

If he doesn't relax, no one dares to relax.

Although the chance of losing the championship in the end is very small, it is still a possibility.

Therefore, Chen Yingxiong disagrees with the statement that the championship can be celebrated now.

He also remembers the lessons of Liverpool's failure to win the Champions League six seasons ago.

That time, even he was proud and underestimated the enemy.

That was the first and only time in his career that he was proud and underestimated his opponent.

From then on, his attitude towards the championship was that he would never say who won or lost until the last second.

Perhaps physical fitness will gradually decline with age. Perhaps the technique at the feet will also fluctuate due to the ups and downs of the state.

These things are beyond control.

But you can control your own heart.

Only when a person can control his own heart can he become a truly strong person.

And Chen Yingxiong did a pretty good job in this regard.

With his example, no one in the entire Liverpool team dares to relax or underestimate the enemy with pride.

Even though Liverpool's opponents in the next two games are actually not strong.

After the game against Portsmouth. Gerrard gave the entire Liverpool team a day off.

The league is coming to an end. The schedule is intensive and the players are physically exhausted. More rest is needed at this time.

So the day after the game. The team has no training plan.

Everyone can sleep at home or go out to relax.

Chen Yingxiong didn't go anywhere. As a man who already has children, he played football with his children at home.

Chen Yongxiang is really a genius, and more importantly, he loves football very, very much. Let him spend the whole day with football, and he is willing to do it.

So other people's children will want to play elsewhere on their days off, but Chen Yongxiang just wants to play football.

I spent a whole day playing football with my son. If Gerald knew about this, he would probably be worried about Chen Yingxiong's physical fitness.

But this is nothing to Chen Yingxiong. The key is that the child is happy, and that's right.

Chen Yingxiong never had such thoughts when he was young, but now he feels that it doesn't matter if his son is happy and he is tired.

Now that I have become a father, my whole perspective and focus on things are completely different.

When the afterglow of the setting sun shone in his yard, Chen Yingxiong and Chen Yongxiang, an old man and a young man, sat on the lawn. The football rolled into the distance without anyone picking it up.

Chen Yingxiong looked at his son who was out of breath from exhaustion but still looked excited, and felt affection for him.

"How are you feeling, son?"

"It's cool!" Chen Yongxiang replied loudly.

Chen Yingxiong patted his head: "Then when I retire, I can play football with you every day."

Unexpectedly, Chen Yongxiang shook his head: "I don't want it, Dad."

"Hey!" Chen Yingxiong didn't expect to hear such an answer, so he rolled his eyes. "Why?"

"My classmate told me that when you retire, Liverpool will be finished. So I don't want you to retire! I don't want Liverpool to be finished!"

Since his father is a Liverpool player and he was born in Liverpool, Chen Yongxiang is naturally a die-hard Liverpool fan.

If Liverpool is finished, of course he will be very unhappy as a Liverpool fan.

"This is the law of nature..."

"We can change this natural law!"

"We? Change?"

"Yes, dad, keep playing, keep playing. Then when I grow up, I can take over your class! You see, this way Liverpool will never be finished!"

Chen Yingxiong was stunned.
