With the appearance of Ronaldo and Henry, the entire Yokohama International Stadium turned into a sea of joy.
Da Luo, Henry, Chen Mo.
To be honest, many people play football games these days and like to put three people together, but now the fantasy has become reality!
The gongs and drums were noisy, and countless Japanese fans beat gongs and drums and shouted with great excitement.
Extremely excited!
The World Cup was established very early, but to be honest, before two thousand years ago, the football atmosphere in Asia was not strong.
Longguo Football was only established in 1989. However, in the early days, Longguo Football was similar to diving and gymnastics. They were both institutional sports and were not professionalized.
To put it bluntly, the institutional project means that the leader names a group of people, and then the country pays for individual training. The whole purpose is to go out and win glory for the country.
It was not until 1994 that football became professional.
The situation in Japan is similar. The Japan Professional Football League was only established in 1993.
Two thousand years ago, although Japanese football was very popular due to the serialization of Ohso Tsubasa's manga and there were some overseas players, it was not actually a national carnival.
What really caused the national carnival was the 2002 World Cup.
This World Cup is not only because television and the Internet are more popular, but also because the 2002 World Cup was held in Asia.
Not to mention a host country like Japan, even if the national team did not reach the group stage, the discussion about the World Cup is overwhelming and bombarded with various news every day.
The focus of the game is undoubtedly Ronaldo, who scored two goals in the final.
2002, now it is 2008.
Six years have passed and Ronaldo has become a memory of youth for many old fans.
There is no doubt that Ronaldo did not disappoint his fans in this game. In fact, Chen Mo, Henry and others were also consciously creating opportunities for Ronaldo.
In the 74th minute of the game, Gamba Osaka's counterattack was intercepted by Chen Mo's sliding tackle, and Arsenal counterattacked.
During the counterattack stage, Ronaldo had to be guarded by the defensive midfielder and central defender, but when Chen Mo released the shovel, Xiaozhu had already pressed forward in advance.
Piggy's forward pressure directly took away Gamba Osaka's midfielder, creating a one-on-one environment for Ronaldo in the back position of the center circle.
Normally, because Ronaldo is older, his running ability has declined a lot.
Even if Ronaldo gets a one-on-one central defender opportunity when playing in the Premier League, unless it is near the top of the arc where he does not need to rush forward, Chen Mo will still advance with the ball himself, allowing Ronaldo to move more without the ball.
But not this time. Chen Mo immediately passed the ball to Ronaldo after stealing the ball.
Passing the central defender is a one-shot!
The fans in the entire stadium stood up, and Ronaldo did not disappoint them. In the eyes of Chen Mo, who was also very appreciative, facing the central defender directly in front, looking at the ball sent by Chen Mo from behind on the right, Ronaldo pressed forward with his right foot. Drag your feet back to play ball.
Use your right foot to pull the ball in front of you!
The next second, amid the screams of the audience, Ronaldo knocked the Japanese center back to the ground with a big swing, and then ran wildly with the ball!
Da Luo's single sword is quite stable.
There was no suspense. Amidst the strange roars of the Japanese commentator, Ronaldo ran with the ball all the way to the Japanese team's penalty area and clipped his right shoulder under his right shoulder. He directly pushed the left side with his right foot and penetrated the Japanese team's gate.
Four to zero!
As Ronaldo turned around and pointed at Chen Mo with a smile at the corner kick, the game also entered garbage time.
Finally, with the referee's whistle, the game came to an end.
Normally, in such a big defeat, the losing players would not choose to exchange jerseys, but this time it was different.
As soon as the whistle sounded, many Japanese players walked towards Chen Mo and the others. Not only the players, but also the Japanese fans didn't have any disappointed expressions on their faces. They all just sat there taking pictures with their mobile phones and posting them on their WeChat Moments.
This is normal. The strength gap between the European division and other divisions is too large.
FIFA holds the Club World Cup and asks Japan to host it. The main purpose is to expand the influence of football in Asia. It is more of a promotional nature than the game itself.
In fact, after this game, the Japan Football Association even approached Wenger and said that he wanted Arsenal to visit the football club of the High School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo.
Wenger agreed.
Wenger has a relationship with Japanese football. Before joining Arsenal, he played for Monaco in Ligue 1, but later left Monaco and went to Nagoya Whales 8 in Japan. He coached Whales 8 for a year before going to Arsenal.
Of course, the origin is only part of the story. It is more because the league's broadcast share accounts for an increasing proportion of the team's income. Although Japan is not large in area, it has a population of more than 100 million.
This population is nearly double that of the UK, and the market is also quite large.
Chen Mo doesn't care about Wenger's decision. Anyway, in his opinion, the Club World Cup is almost like a vacation. He has plenty of time, and the High School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo is also Tsukiike Kaoru's alma mater.
So, on the afternoon of the second day after playing Gamba Osaka, Wenger's team moved together, while Chen Mo and Kaoru Tsukichi drove to the University of Tokyo High School in advance.
It's funny. The students at the High School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo all knew that Arsenal was coming today, so they all stayed there and looked at the school gate. Instead, they ignored Chen Mo and Yuechi Kaoru, who were wearing sunglasses and caps and entering from the side door.
Good.
Strolling through the Japanese high school campus, in Tsukichi Kaoru's chirping memories, the two wandered around the teaching building, and then went to the basketball gym.
However, there were no basketball classes in the basketball hall at this time. They were all occupied by a group of Japanese high school girls wearing cool sports shorts playing volleyball.
It was quite beautiful. I stood at the door and took a second look, then Yue Chixun hugged her elbow tightly, and then snorted.
Chen Mo also couldn't laugh or cry about this.
When I first met Yue Chi Xun, Yue Chi Xun's character was much more mature and quieter than other girls of the same age, but after giving birth to a child, she began to become a little childish.
This is called
"Eighteen-year-old girls like to pretend to be mature, and women over twenty-five like to pretend to be young?"
"Come to think of it, I'm also twenty-three."
After leaving the basketball hall, holding Yuechi Xun's hand, he walked along the cherry blossom avenue without cherry blossoms, feeling the campus atmosphere. Chen Mo also had some nostalgia in his eyes.
Technically speaking, he never went to high school.
He went to the Premier League to play in the Champions League when he was less than seventeen years old, but whether it was the two years he spent in the Dragon Country in junior high school or the two years he spent in La Masia, Chen Mo actually missed it.
It's just that the boy back then is now the father of two children.
Chen Mo was sad for the spring and sad for the autumn, but soon, he had no time to be sad for the spring and sad for the autumn.
As the bell rang, the campus became noisy and more students came and went, and he was quickly recognized by some students who paid attention to football.
There was no doubt that it immediately caused a sensation.
Countless students came, and even some Japanese female high school students with flushed faces took the opportunity to squeeze Chen Mo's abdominal muscles. Fortunately, when he came in from the side door, the security guard who had been on guard nearby after taking the signature rushed with people in time. to the scene.
There isn’t much to say about visiting a high school football club. It’s just chatting with the young players, strolling around their football club’s honor room, and then performing a free kick on the playground, or just playing three-on-three or five-on-five. Finally, accept an interview with a high school student.
For example, the difference between professional football and amateur football, and how hard it is every day.
Naturally, the one who gets the most questions here is Chen Mo.
Many children are asking him about La Masia's training model and how he met Yuechi Kaoru back then.
Regarding these things, Chen Mo didn't make any secrets. When asked, he said that when Chen Mo confirmed that he and Yuechi Xun met by chance on the seaside tram, the whole place was full of envious voices.
Some people expressed that they also hoped to use this kind of romantic encounter to get out of singlehood, but naturally they were criticized by contemptuous words such as "You don't have the beauty of Mosan" and "You are not talented enough, you idiot".
After laughing and joking all afternoon, and finally having a meal of their canteen food at the invitation of the Japan Football Association, everyone went back to their homes.
It's just that maybe he was stimulated by those young girls in school.
Chen Mo had just driven to the beach when Yue Chixun suddenly said that he was going to get something from the back seat. Then, as Chen Mo's breathing became heavier and heavier and he kept glancing at the rearview mirror, Yue Chixun changed into the back seat. Got a high school uniform.
The soft compress applied by [Senior] was a little irritating as soon as he said it.
There was no suspense. As Chen Mo pulled on his collar and put on the handbrake, the Mercedes-Benz G stopped on the seaside road where the waves were lapping.
.
Keli is not in Japan, her two children are taken care of by an old man, and the schedule and intensity of the Club World Cup are not high.
As a result, Yue Chixun, who had been holding back her pregnancy for several months, completely let herself go during this period.
There were school uniforms on the roadside, one-piece swimsuits for swimming at the beach, and even some nurse uniforms. Chen Mo was so excited about all kinds of extravagant activities.
However, happy and happy days always pass quickly.
After playing Gamba Osaka, Arsenal defeated Pachuca, Vitacre United and other teams in the following week and a half, and finally won the third Club World Cup trophy in team history in Japan.
The whole team is very excited.
Strictly speaking, the Club World Cup does not have much gold content, but the problem is that for European teams, they can only participate in the Club World Cup if they win the Champions League.
It is a very rare trophy with low gold content but high entry threshold.
After winning the championship, Arsenal naturally had no reason to stay in Japan. With countless fans seeing them off at the airport, Chen Mo and his team returned to London again.
Compared with Arsenal's scenery and ease, the entire winter window this year was not peaceful in the Premier League.
The main reason is still due to the rise of Manchester City and the personnel changes at Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool.
At the end of December, the schedule is already halfway through, but the current number one in the league is Manchester City, second is Arsenal, third is Liverpool, fourth is Manchester United, and fifth is Chelsea.
From third-placed Liverpool to fifth-placed Chelsea, the point difference between the three teams is only three points.
no way.
Chelsea lost their place in the Champions League last season, Ashley Cole was poached this season, and Essien is flirting with Real Madrid.
Liverpool have lost Alonso.
Manchester United is currently looking for strong scorers on the market because of Cristiano Ronaldo's departure.
These three top Premier League teams all have staffing problems and all hope to make reinforcements, but the problem is.
First of all, the winter window is in the middle of the season, and even mid-range teams rarely sell their core at this time.
The second thing is that so many clubs need reinforcements at the same time, which also causes the value of players to start to rise.
Especially Manchester United, whether it is Chelsea or Liverpool, as long as they are interested in a player, Manchester United will definitely quote a symbolic price and raise the price.
It's a bit bad, but unfortunately, Manchester United is self-defeating this time.
There were only four top teams in the Premier League before, and even before the rise of Chelsea, there were not four.
At that time, although they were also competitors, they were not competing for Champions League seats like they are now.
The Champions League berth is equivalent to a relegation battle for weak teams. In this case, Chelsea and Liverpool are also jealous when Manchester United makes trouble. As long as Manchester United is interested in any player, these two companies will also raise the price.
The most competitive player among the three teams is Aguero.
After Ronaldo leaves, Manchester United needs a strong striker;
Although Liverpool has Torres, Torres was injured for more than half a month at the beginning of this season. He has been playing in and out since then, and his performance began to be a bit unstable;
As for Chelsea, they have Drogba on the front line, but Drogba's scoring efficiency is not too high, and he plays more of a big center.
Throughout the winter window, these three companies were fiercely competing for Aguero, but unfortunately, Atletico Madrid entered the Champions League this year, so even if Chelsea offered 40 million euros two weeks ago, Atletico Madrid still did not relent.
There is a lot of noise from the outside world, and there are all kinds of transfer news every day.
However, these games had nothing to do with Chen Mo. After returning to London, he returned to his normal life rhythm.
I still go to the training ground in advance every day to practice extra with Ronaldo and Martin. I go home for a meal at noon, continue training in the afternoon, and then spend my rest days at home with Yuechi Xunhu Tianheidi.
On days like this, time flies by.
As the winter window closed, in which Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea, although very lively, ended up earning nothing, December also passed quietly.
The end of December also means that the league is halfway through and the more competitive second half of the season has arrived, and this year's league competition is particularly fierce.
Not only because of the addition of Manchester City, but also because in the past few years due to insufficient bench depth, Arsenal actually did not work too hard to compete for the league title. They mainly focused on the Champions League, but this year is different.
With the addition of players such as Roviera and De Bruyne Lewandowski, Arsenal is making every effort to compete in the Champions League, while also beginning to make efforts in the league and FA Cup.
In this atmosphere, Chen Mo also turned on his all-out mode.
Throughout January, Arsenal won six games in two FA Cup games and four Premier League games.
Chen Mo scored 3 goals and 6 assists, and was directly awarded the Premier League Player of the Month for January.
Just as Arsenal was advancing head-on, as the time came to February, the Champions League last 16 games also came.
On February 25, Arsenal faced Roma in Serie A at home.
