Lin Qiaoxin was sitting on the sofa, watching the Premier League live broadcast.
However, when she saw Fang Fang breaking the opponent's goal by stopping the ball from behind, she was holding a water glass and biting the glass straw. She was so amazed that she forgot to drink water.
"That's amazing! How did you come up with this method?!" Lin Qiao whispered to herself with brilliant eyes.
Yang Ling on the other side hugged the doll, blinked, and said: "There may be two situations. The first is that it ran past the landing point, and then was forced to stop the football with its back. The second is that it happened in the heart. I expected that stopping the ball behind my back would prevent the defender in front of me from reacting, and then the space for shooting would be opened up!"
Lin Qiaoxin looked at the back of No. 10 in the live broadcast, and she sighed: "There are so many thoughts, and everyone else is plotted to death."
Yang Ling smiled and said, "Without a little more, how can we win the game?"
Lin Qiao thought for a moment, "That's right. Anyone who can play in the Premier League is not a fool. They can only be smarter and think more than others."
On the court, after Fang Fang scored a goal, Arsenal did not relax and kept on attacking.
There were several exchanges of football quickly, and the scene became anxious. Neither side had a chance to break into the penalty area.
The score remained 0:1 until the end of the first half, when both sides returned to the locker room, and the score remained unchanged.
Although Arsenal had the upper hand in the first half, the Bees were very aggressive. If it weren't for several "second counter-attacks" by Thomas, the score might have been evened.
Professor Wenger emphasized in the locker room that the intensity of the game will be reduced as the opponent's physical fitness declines in the second half.
But at the same time, they also need to be vigilant, because they are human beings and there will always be times when they lose focus.
In the second half, the entire team of Little Bees indeed only maintained the intensity of confrontation for a period of time.
After more than ten minutes, they could no longer fight as hard as they did in the first half. Arsenal also deliberately conducts the football steadily and uses the rolling of the football to mobilize the opponent, with the purpose of consuming the opponent's physical energy.
In the 80th minute, Ronaldo and Saka broke through into the opponent's penalty area three times in a row, but neither scored a goal, only posing a threat.
Arsenal did not seize the opportunity to score again.
The final score was 0:1, and Arsenal took away the victory in the away game.
The moment the whistle sounded, Fang Fang and his teammates couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It's not easy to get off to a good start in the new season.
Everyone put in a lot of effort before the season. Professor Wenger arranged a full training schedule every day, with two practices a day and even three consecutive practices a day.
After all, in the new season, they will definitely have to fight on multiple fronts and want to achieve results in the Champions League, so they will naturally have to train hard!
During this period, a few players were almost sick from training and wanted to take time off to avoid a full day of training.
Fortunately, in the end the whole team persevered and got off to a good start in the new season!
At this time, Arsenal fans cheered and celebrated in the stands and did not want to leave the field.
The entire Arsenal team came to the stands and briefly interacted with the away fans. Thank you all for your support.
Because of the excellent performance of Equation, there are now many international students among Arsenal fans to watch the game, and they will bring the national flag to the scene every time.
Every time Equation scores a goal, everyone will excitedly display the national flag, which adds a different scenery to the Premier League.
However, since this is an away game,
After a brief interaction, everyone left quickly.
After all, it would be unpleasant if the disappointed home fans were irritated!
After the game, captain Xhaka was interviewed by the media:
The reporter asked what their goal is for the new season. Is it really like fighting for relegation as mentioned before?
Professor Wenger also encountered this problem in the post-match press conference.
Regarding this question, the head coach and captain actually agreed on the wording of their answers before the game.
Arsenal's goal this season is to strive for the top four, and then hope to successfully advance to the Champions League group stage!
At the same time, Chelsea and Manchester City have both finished their first round games.
Both teams achieved victory and ranked first and second in the standings on goal difference.
Arsenal ranked fourth. The match between Manchester United and Tottenham won't start until tomorrow.
After the game, the Arsenal team returned to North London by car.
The next day, the team did not have a holiday, and the whole team continued to clock in at the training base.
The training base has undergone some upgrades this season.
For example, two Desso pitches were installed at a cost of £2 million and will be continuously upgraded. There is also a large screen next to the stadium that can project training footage captured by drones onto the screen or be used to analyze video clips.
The renovation of the video analysis room cost £200,000. The seats here are tiered to ensure that every player can clearly see the content on the screen. In addition, the equipment in the video analysis room has been upgraded to the most advanced level.
You must know that the Premier League is the most profitable league, and the training conditions used must naturally keep up with the use of the team.
It's 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
Arsenal training is finally over.
Fang Fang didn't stay at the base for more training because the amount of recent training was terrifying and his body wasn't made of iron.
If you practice more secretly, you will lose your life.
After returning home, Fang Fang collapsed on the sofa and didn't want to move his toes anymore.
After resting for a while, I felt that my body had calmed down.
Then, Lin Qiaoxin from next door suddenly came to the door and politely said that she wanted to go to the supermarket. However, her spoken English was very poor because she had taught herself Sakura dialect in advance, which caused her English pronunciation to be distorted and the local natives could not understand her.
Fang Fang had no choice but to wear a mask and accompany his old classmates to the supermarket.
Because he has long heard the pronunciation of Sakura in English.
Lin Qiaoxin walked in front happily,
Fang Fang curiously asked: "Are you the only one at home? Where did Yang Ling go?"
Lin Qiaoxin looked around in the supermarket and replied: "Her sister has also come to London, and she should be playing outside with her now."
Fang Fang was a little helpless. He didn't expect that after coming back from get off work, he would have to visit a supermarket in London with his classmates.
He walked behind and asked out of curiosity: "But why do you have to wait until night to come to the supermarket?"
"Because I don't have money, some supermarkets will have discounts on cooked food at night." Lin Qiao said plausibly.
"Then why is there no money?"
"The reason is complicated." Lin Qiaoxin used a trick to avoid the important point and asked lightly, "By the way, big star, do you know any jobs in London where international students can make money easily?"
"Working at a convenience store?"
"except this!"
"Going to deliver takeout to Chinese people?"
"Any more?"
"Vlog video?"
Lin Qiaoxin felt almost speechless, "So do you want to become an Internet celebrity? But the earning cycle of making videos is very long. If I haven't become famous by then, I might starve to death!"
Fang Fang couldn't help but smile: "Then what do you want to do? It is already difficult for international students to make money."
Lin Qiaoxin had a headache and bit her lip, "Do I have to be a waiter?"
Fang Fang asked: "Then you don't have any special skills?"
Lin Qiaoxin tilted her face and thought for a moment, "Can I write short compositions? Does this count?"
Fang Fang almost made her laugh. Now the meaning of these words is a bit derogatory. Can you say it like this?
Lin Qiaoxin sighed and said: "Okay, I know I have to be down-to-earth. In a few days, I will go to a coffee shop part-time as a waiter. Anyway, I can make coffee. When I have time, I will use my talent for writing short compositions to try writing Book~"
"Maybe one day, I can become a best-selling author! I have written many books~"
As she spoke, Lin Qiaoxin looked happy and seemed to be full of hope for the future.
She started shopping in earnest.
"Writing a book???" Fang Fang was hesitant to speak, but suddenly he thought of a certain Uncle Chen from his hometown. This seems like a point of no return, right?
but,
Seeing that Lin Qiaoxin seemed to be a born optimist, Fang Fang smiled helplessly, not wanting to dampen her enthusiasm in advance.
"It's better to wait until later to see the specific situation and then help her think of some solutions." He thought to himself.
Soon, Lin Qiaoxin bought some discounted cooked food. The equation looked familiar at the back, and it seemed that they were some of the food she often ate before.
He couldn't help but smile. I never thought I would see him one day.
Today I can only think of it as remembering the bitter and thinking of the sweet.
Soon after returning home, Lin Qiaoxin reheated the food and it was ready to start.
The two were dining in the living room while watching the Manchester United game.
Du Wenliang only entered the bench of Manchester United today and did not start.
The Premier League director gave Du Wenliang several close-ups from time to time.
Lin Qiaoxin mixed the pasta, holding her hair hanging down, and curiously asked him: "Do you think Du Wenliang can play today?"
"Don't worry, I think Xiao Du can establish himself at Manchester United. If he is lucky, he might be able to succeed." Fang Fang said while talking about the pasta. "It's amazing that he can reach this stage now. He has been in the Wolves youth training for four years." Years ago, I kept a low profile and worked hard, but now I just lack a little luck.”
"That's really awesome." Lin Qiaoxin said suddenly.
Manchester United's opponent in this game is Crystal Palace.
The two teams played back and forth. Solskjaer's tactics were single and his on-the-spot reaction was too slow, which was fully exposed in this game.
Through the on-site cameras, it can be seen that Du Wenliang has no chance to come on as a substitute. He seems to have simply come to Manchester United to watch the water dispenser.
Suddenly, Lin Qiaoxin spotted Pogba in the live broadcast. She was surprised and said: "This guy is really awesome. The head coach is talking to him, but he just glanced at him."
Equation explanation: "Pogba is the core of the Manchester United team, and he can also perform magical witchcraft. Don't underestimate him!"
Lin Qiaoxin was stunned, and for a while she couldn't figure out whether this was a joke.
Before long, the game was over! Pogba was replaced by Solskjaer during the period, and the score between Manchester United and Crystal Palace was locked at 1:1.
"Then which team will your opponent be in the next game?" Lin Qiaoxin looked at him and asked.
"Newcastle, our goal is to win two consecutive games!" Fang Fang said seriously.
"Striving for two consecutive victories? Does this have any special significance?"
"Yes, although it is two consecutive wins at the beginning, it is of great significance to us. The last time we won two consecutive victories was in the 2009-2010 competition. It has been almost ten years!"
Equation is obviously not the only one who knows this data. The outside media quickly dug up this data and made it public in newspapers, preliminarily warming up the game between Arsenal and Newcastle.
Newcastle has now changed dramatically. Although they were acquired by a wealthy oil company, their pre-season recruitment plan was very cautious and professional, and at the same time they purged a group of mediocre players.
They have introduced low-key and capable players, and under the guidance of head coach Eddie Howe, they have transformed into a wealthy team that cannot be underestimated.
In the first round, Newcastle defeated Norwich 3:1 and ranked third in the Premier League.
August 13th.
Arsenal play Newcastle at the Emirates Stadium.
Fang Fang drove to the stadium in advance.
Yang Ling and Lin Qiaoxin also came to watch the game today. Lin Qiaoxin also imitated other international students and bought a national flag.
She also took a selfie of the scene with Yang Ling and sent it to him on her mobile phone.
However, even if Fang Fang arrived early, he still encountered a traffic jam outside the stadium.
A domestic reporter recognized his car and trotted over to interview him.
Fang Fang was in a good mood, so he lowered half of the car windows to listen to what questions the reporters would ask.
As long as it's not about the locker room, he can answer two sentences.
The reporter friendly said: "Hello, Brother Fang, do you know that Aubameyang scored twice in Chelsea's first round match?"
Fang Fang nodded, "I know, some media in London reported this. He is very good and has gone to a great team. Congratulations to him for regaining his strength. But we are also working hard to create history."
The reporter asked again: "Then do you know the Premier League ranking predicted by the supercomputer?"
Equation nodded: "I also know this. The prediction is that Manchester City will win the Premier League championship. Manchester City has 84 points, Liverpool has 83 points, we have 71 points, and Manchester United has 69 points."
"So do you think Arsenal can win the Premier League?"
"Who knows, the league has just started, anything is possible."
"Okay, I wish you can complete the first two consecutive victories!"
Fortunately, the road ahead was clear, so Fang Fang smiled and waved goodbye and drove towards the stadium.
The head coaches of both sides also answered some topics about making history before the game.
Professor Wenger answered very low-key.
Eddie Howe's answer was also very modest. After all, Newcastle's lineup has not yet been fully formed.
Then, players from both sides began to warm up and prepare to take the field.
Fang Fang glanced at the Newcastle players from a distance and felt that there were many unfamiliar faces.
It seems that the lineup has really changed.
The outcome of this game is really hard to say. Because this is a new Newcastle United.
Beep! !
As the referee blows his whistle, the game officially begins.
Newcastle kicked the ball, and their frontcourt players tried a fast break, but before they could run ten meters away, Arsenal jointly intercepted the ball.
Newcastle immediately counterattacked on the spot, but after seeing Arsenal pass the ball back to the goalkeeper, their formation immediately chose to retreat.
After all, their lineup has just been adjusted well, and they don't dare to compete strongly with last season's Europa League champions.
