In the battle against Liverpool, Wang Xiaodong showed his face in the Premier League.
"Tottenham's upstarts pass and shoot, the Chinese conquer Anfield"
No matter how noisy Wang Xiaodong was before and how much gossip he caused, this time, Bai Baihe fans completely fell in love with this Chinese boy with a fierce playing style and an unconventional approach.
Winter is Tottenham's midfield engine!
As long as he is here, we have nothing to fear!
As long as Dong is still running, the race is not over yet!
The public opinion after the game showed a one-sided trend, and the fans gave the best praise to Wang Xiaodong.
Anfield and Liverpool have always been representatives of perseverance, and this time, Wang Xiaodong and Tottenham also showed the spirit of never giving up.
Especially the last time the team actively returned to defense, it was called the halo effect of the "leader".
Obviously, Wang Xiaodong ran for a full ninety minutes, and it was his hard work that infected his teammates.
A young player who can influence the teammates around him through his own efforts is rare in football.
After the game, Benitez looked at Martin Joel sourly: Old boy, you have found a treasure!
Gerrard also exchanged jerseys with Wang Xiaodong and invited him to visit Liverpool next time.
"Dong, you are a born Red Army player. If you want to transfer in the future, Liverpool will welcome you at any time."
"Don't you blame me for hurting your gay friend?"
Gerrard blinked and thought of Alonso who was sent to the hospital.
"When players go to the football field, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is determined by heaven. As long as you didn't do it on purpose, Harvey will not blame you."
"Can you speak for your opponent like this?" Wang Xiaodong blinked, "What if I did it on purpose?"
"Fake, you are such a dumb kid!" Gerald rolled his eyes and punched Wang Xiaodong in the chest, "Are all young people today so arrogant?"
"No!" Wang Xiaodong shook his head, "I just don't want to break up you two. After all, everyone knows your relationship with Harvey."
"Shet! Who spread such boring rumors?"
...
With the momentum of a draw with Liverpool, after returning to White Hart Lane, Tottenham entertained a wave of guests from the Czech Republic.
Since it was a home game and there was a small victory in the first round, Martin Joel sent out a semi-main lineup to play.
This time, Bell completed the task assigned to him by the coach very well, killing seven in and seven out in the left corridor. His active figure can be seen in both offense and defense.
Such an eye-catching performance naturally received its due reward.
In the 63rd minute of the game, Bell received a long pass from Wang Xiaodong and broke into the penalty area from the left. Facing the opponent's goalkeeper, he calmly pushed and shot into the far corner.
With Bell's goal, Tottenham defeated its opponent at home and advanced to the Europa League group stage with a total score of 2-0.
The group stage of this Europa League is divided into eight groups, with five teams in each group, playing a single round-robin competition. The top two teams in the group advance directly to the top 16 and compete with other opponents in a double-leg home-and-away knockout round.
This time Tottenham are in Group B with Turkey's Beşiktaş, Belgium's Club Brugge, Bundesliga's Leverkusen and Romania's Dinamo Buchare.
Judging from the situation in Group B, Tottenham's biggest opponent is the Bundesliga pharmaceutical company.
But even so, the fans were not too nervous.
Anyway, your pharmaceutical company's best shooter is in our hands. When the time comes, we can control it or not, so we have to let it be at our disposal?
For a long time, Tottenham has not been the mainstream of the Premier League.
After each round of the league, fans are more interested in how Chelsea is doing, when will Magic Bird get out of class; how is Arsenal, whether Henry has recovered from injury; what is going on with Manchester United, and whether Lu Xiaopang continues to have an erection. ;Liverpool...Forget it about Liverpool, only Liverpudlians care about Liverpool.
After the Europa League grouping this time, this argument was made again.
No one cares whether Tottenham will emerge from the group stage, everyone is focused on Newcastle.
Newcastle are in a group with La Liga's Celta Vigo, Serie A's Palermo, Bundesliga's Eintracht Frankfurt and Turkey's Fenerba. Fans expect the Magpies to emerge from the group stage and then see Owen in action next year. figure.
As for Wang Xiaodong, who was just selected into the best team in the sixth round of the Premier League, he is no longer mentioned by fans.
However, Tottenham doesn't care. Building walls high, hoarding supplies, and becoming king slowly is the way to development. On October 1, Tottenham returned to White Hart Lane to face Portsmouth at home.
This small team from the south coast lost to Bolton Wanderers 0-1 in the last round. It suffered its first defeat of the season and also handed over the first place in the league.
This time they are visiting London, and the players at White Hart Lane will not sympathize with them.
This is a team that is destined to be squeezed out of the top four. It just relied on a good schedule at the beginning of the season to attract a lot of attention from fans.
Tottenham have won all of their last three games against Portsmouth and have also won all of their home games in the last three seasons.
The last time Portsmouth won at White Hart Lane was back in 1988. The two teams played a total of six games that season, and Tottenham achieved a crushing result of 4 wins and 2 draws. The two sides have met 32 times in history, with Tottenham having the upper hand with 11 wins, 11 draws and 10 losses.
But the historical record can only be used as a reference. This time Portsmouth comes to White Hart Lane with great confidence.
Looking at the players on their team, there are many people from Tottenham: Campbell, Mendes, Sean Davis and Parmalot on the bench.
However, only 42 seconds into the game, Defoe's cross was headed towards the goal by the injured Berbatov.
The visiting team's goalkeeper James tried his best to save the ball with one punch. The defender was not far away from clearing the ball. Wang Xiaodong at the top of the penalty area hit the high-altitude ball with a blast. This non-stop volley was very visually shocking. The ball flew back to the penalty area with a whooshing sound. Before James could get up, Drilled into the net.
After scoring the goal, Wang Xiaodong looked up to the sky and roared, beating his chest while roaring.
As the people of Portsmouth looked at this ferocious beast, the veterans were all reminded of the psychological shadow of last season.
This is a player who can fight eight players!
He could have put us all in the hospital alone.
This time when you come to Tottenham, it’s better not to be too arrogant.
Losing less means winning, losing less means winning.
In the 35th minute, Portsmouth, which had been defensively cautious, still made a mistake.
Mendes fouled Murphy in the penalty area, and Defoe made a penalty kick to help the home team expand the score.
After leading by two goals in the first half, Martin Joel immediately replaced Wang Xiaodong.
Everyone knows the feud between Wang Xiaodong and Portsmouth last season. Martin Joel still arranged for Wang Xiaodong to start this time, which is an adventure in itself.
Fortunately, both players restrained their tempers, and Wang Xiaodong did not cause too much trouble.
In the second half, after the opponent saw Wang Xiaodong come off the field, they also understood the "goodwill" released by the home team.
In the last 45 minutes, neither side achieved anything, and Tottenham once again took all three points at White Hart Lane.
On January 14, in the eighth round of the league, Tottenham played against Aston Villa.
Both teams have a number of players who have just returned from midweek international duty. Davis, Burrows and Petrov appeared in front of the home fans at Villa Park, having just returned from their respective national teams. Martin Joel's team includes Lennon, Robinson, Janus and other English players.
The protagonist of this game is not Wang Xiaodong, Lennon, Robinson and others, but Angel, Villa's top scorer last season.
Since his name sounds the same as "Angel", his dramatic performances during the game made him the subject of media ridicule.
"The Times" ridiculed him as a "lost angel", and "The Independent" was even more straightforward: Angels dance with devils.
It only took Angel less than 2 minutes to get such a confusing title.
In the 73rd minute of the second half, Agbonlahor broke into the penalty area and was tripped by Davenport. Angel kicked the penalty kick on the post and kicked it away.
A worse result came - Angel missed the penalty kick, Wang Xiaodong quickly launched a long pass after the ball to seek a counterattack, and finally the team got a corner kick.
Defoe's cross ball flew from the left into the penalty area. Angel, who was standing at the near post to help, accidentally headed the ball into his own door with his head.
Goalkeeper Taylor was stunned, Angel was stunned, and the Villa fans in the stands were even more stunned!
The "innocent" Tottenham players also looked at each other, shrugged, and accepted the gift with a calm smile.
Fortunately, the home team did not give up. In the 82nd minute, Petrov started to pass the ball. Barry shot from outside the penalty area into the upper right corner of the goal and scored two points from Tottenham's three points.
Aston Villa is also the only unbeaten team in the Premier League so far.
Even if the games between teams like Tottenham and Villa are dramatic, they cannot attract the attention of the whole of England. After this round of league games, everyone is focusing on Chelsea, which has just suffered a tragedy.
The Premier League this season is destined to be unrest.
It can be seen from the fact that players were sent to the hospital in every game at the beginning of the season that the intensity of the Premier League has reached a fever pitch.
Madejski Stadium has maintained an unbeaten record in the past 14 months and is known as the "Devil's Stadium".
Chelsea had long been prepared for a tough battle, but in just half a minute, they experienced the power of Satan.
Reading left winger Hunter was chasing Harper's pass into the Chelsea penalty area, but Cech had already fallen to the ground to save before he could reach the ball. Hunter hit it with his right knee without reaching the ball. The Czech's temple.
Cech was immediately knocked unconscious by the impact, but referee Riley not only did not make any penalty on the perpetrator, but also asked Cech to leave the field immediately for treatment.
In this short period of time, people saw a goalkeeper who was already delirious, using his last bit of strength to support himself on the ground, moving slowly with his limbs, and crawling out of the court step by step. Then, he struggled and waved his hand to the coaching bench before completely fainting.
After four minutes of emergency treatment, the Czech was lifted off the court on a stretcher and put directly into an ambulance, which roared to the hospital.
"He's lucky to be alive." Magic Bird criticized Hunter's behavior after the game.
“The ball was so far away from him and Cech fell to the ground and grabbed the ball with his hand and just blasted away this kid who lost his mind. I’d love to hear what the pundits and media pundits are going to say about that.”
"Being angry will not help. I would rather wait and see what the media says and wait for the FA's decision."
And when Cech wakes up in the ICU, he may be surprised that he is not alone. Yes, there is another unlucky guy lying next to him: Cudicini.
The Italian's misfortune at Chelsea seems to be endless. Since being reduced to a substitute, Cudicini's few opportunities to perform have ended in tragedy.
In the 91st minute of the game, the Italian collided with the opponent's defender in the air, and the opponent's elbow hit his neck. When Cudicini fell, his head hit the ground and he was unconscious at the time.
The treatment lasted for 8 minutes. He remained in a coma during the entire process, and medical staff fixed his neck with a brace.
The ambulance left the stadium again and headed for the Royal Berks Hospital for the second time that night.
After Cudicini left the field, Chelsea was faced with the situation of having no one to replace. Captain Terry had no choice but to put on the jersey of third goalkeeper Hilario and temporarily played as goalkeeper.
In the remaining minutes, Drogba also retreated to play the role of defender, and finally narrowly preserved the victory.
Seeing such reports the next morning, all the fans looked heavy.
Many people took to the streets of London, holding banners that read "Stop Violence" and "Increase Punishment of Violence", signaling the FA to make changes as soon as possible, otherwise the Premier League will sooner or later consume most of its active forces in "civil strife". Then failed in the European war.
"Dong, what are you thinking about?"
On a rare day off, the little witch snuggled against Wang Xiaodong's chest, not forgetting to hold her hero in her hand.
"Dear, have you ever heard of raising gu?" Wang Xiaodong put down the newspaper and kissed his girlfriend on the forehead.
"Yanggu? What is that?" the little witch asked curiously.
"There is a nation in the south of our country. They like to put all kinds of poisonous insects together and let them fight each other. The one that survives in the end is the poisonous tyrant!"
"Oh my God, this is too bloody and cruel!" As soon as she heard the words spiders and centipedes, the little witch clenched her hands in fear.
"Is it bloody? Is it cruel?" Wang Xiaodong snorted, his eyes gleaming, "I think this is the only way to determine the real strong one!"
