phone-reading

Next, Zhou Tiancheng can concentrate on the game. Now he feels a sense of relief. Although this means that he will have to take on more responsibilities in the future, but that is a matter of the future. Right now Zhou Tiancheng is more focused on the court.

After the FIFA international break, the league continues. Zhou Tiancheng took care of the complicated affairs outside the court, and his state was further bursting during the game.

In the eighth round of the league, Schalke drew 2:2 at home with Stuttgart. Zhou Tiancheng scored two goals in the 37th and 82nd minutes with overhead kicks, although this narrowed the gap between them and Dortmund in the standings As big as three points, a whole win, but this is already considered thankful. If Zhou Tiancheng hadn't stepped forward twice, the point gap would have been more than one goal.

It is nothing surprising to the media that Zhou Tiancheng scored twice. The Gelsenkirchen media can only keep exaggerating how good Zhou Tiancheng is, but it is recognized by the entire Bundesliga and even Europe, and repeated mentions are not nutritious. So no one particularly cares.

But the media soon discovered that their judgment of Zhou Tiancheng seemed to be biased at any time.

In the second round of the DFB-Pokal in the middle of the week, Magath directly arranged for Zhou Tiancheng to take a rest in the second round of the German Cup. The signal sent was obvious. Against opponents in the Bundesliga and even the Champions League.

Even if it is a break, Magath believes that it will definitely not affect Zhou Tiancheng's state.

In fact, the same is true. In the eighth round of the Bundesliga, Leverkusen is currently ranked fifth in the standings, but the opponent who is only four points away from Schalke, this game cannot be missed.

Heynckes arranged a midfield wheel strategy against Zhou Tiancheng in this game. The double midfielder Rolfes and Lars Bender—that is, the brother of Dortmund midfielder Sbender, the two played against Zhou Tiancheng. Take turns close to the body, and at the same time keep the ball close to him, the nearest players must follow up to double-team, Heynckes seeks to compress the space through an aggressive overall pressure, and Heynckes pursues a stable coaching style It is rare, but the fact is that with such a tactic, Leverkusen caught Schalke by surprise in the first half and once gained a 2:0 advantage.

At the team's most difficult time, Magath's most prominent request was to give the ball to Zhou Tiancheng.

Leverkusen's double defensive midfielders are obviously more aware of Zhou Tiancheng's threat, so when Zhou Tiancheng was about to take the ball and start it, Rolfes slammed behind him. The referee blew the whistle, and Rolfes didn't think there was any problem with giving a set kick. After all, the visual distance was more than 30 meters, and there was a wall of four teammates, and he was one of them. After passing Zhou Tiancheng's set-piece, but holding the two-goal advantage, his mentality was a little fluttering. He didn't think this shot could go over his head.

In the end, Zhou Tiancheng taught him how to be a man! It's better not to be too confident...

"Good goal! Zhou Tiancheng's sixth goal of the season! World wave, with this goal, he and Mario Gomez are tied for the top scorer list. He is a midfielder. He’s as efficient as a top striker, and he’s got four assists on top of six goals, and he’s done his job as a midfielder.”

This is the interpretation of strength what it means to walk the path of others and make others have nowhere to go. Marcel Leff looked forward to the suspense of this season's Golden Boot in the live broadcast: "Zhou scored a goal and just received news from several other courts. Mario Gomez and Barrios also gained. These three people are in the current state. The hottest shooter. If nothing else, the Golden Boot of the Bundesliga this season will be produced among these few people. In terms of possibility, Zhou is relatively small... Although his current state is amazing, his position He has a natural disadvantage. Once the opponent intentionally prevents him from approaching the penalty area, his goals will not be so smooth. However, taking a step back, he is almost sure to score double digits for three consecutive seasons. As a midfielder, this It is already a remarkable achievement.

"

However, Zhou Tiancheng quickly declared that he would never share the first place with others with his second consecutive score. His personal goals reached seven, and Zhou Tiancheng occupied the top scorer list in the Bundesliga.

After the game, the media will naturally pay attention to this issue. In the scorer list, at a glance, only Zhou Tiancheng is CMF (offensive midfielder), and the second to tenth behind him are all CF (forwards). ), too prominent will naturally attract attention.

Gaming companies have also opened the market for the suspense of this season's Bundesliga Golden Boot, Zhou Tiancheng's odds are still slightly higher than Gomez and Barrios. From the professional point of view of the gaming company, it is not optimistic that Zhou Tiancheng can win the contest with the two forwards.

Zhou Tiancheng encounters so much media every day. Even if he deliberately avoids it, the media will always find him. He naturally knows the topics that the reporters are paying attention to. To be honest, he has never thought about the Golden Boot, but Hearing what the reporters said, he was interested. Of course, his attitude was very low-key: "At least from my point of view, the first thing I think about is not scoring goals for myself. I know what you are wondering, why is my scoring efficiency higher than before? Two seasons high, and more shots, right? Because I thought there was an opportunity in front of me, and I shot it instinctively, and I went in, yeah, that's it."

Zhou Tiancheng said it lightly, but the reporters were collectively speechless. Goals are as simple as that...

Well, this is really a god, a person who is awesome can have the capital to say something awesome.

There was also a Chinese reporter at the scene who asked further: "Zhou Tiancheng, since you have already ranked first in the scorer list, have you ever thought about staying on the scorer list and getting the Bundesliga Golden Boot?"

This reporter is also a Sina.com resident reporter stationed in Gelsenkirchen. He knows Zhou Tiancheng very well. He just asked this question to remind Zhou Tiancheng that he was afraid that Zhou Tiancheng would not care about this matter at all. But they and the fans care. Chinese players have never won the Golden Boot in any of the top European leagues, and even Asian players have not won the Golden Boot in the five major leagues. Now Zhou Tiancheng is the most promising one. And if Zhou Tiancheng can win the Golden Boot, it will be easy to introduce Zhou Tiancheng in the future-"He used to be the player with the most goals in this league."

This is more concise and cool than putting out a lot of honors. Moreover, there are actually quite a few so-called "pseudo-fans" in China who don't really understand the weight of the "European Golden Boy" award, but if they can win the Golden Boot, it will definitely help Zhou Tiancheng's popularity in the country go up a step. The person who scores the most goals is of course the most powerful. This is common sense that people who don't understand football understand.

The number of goals scored by the Bundesliga Golden Boot is generally around 25 goals. If Zhou Tiancheng can maintain his current state, and even as long as he can maintain the efficiency of one goal per game or two games, the number of goals will definitely exceed twenty. five.

This is not a big challenge for him.
