After the match against West Ham United, the quarter-finals of the Champions League are already in sight.

Schalke 04 is average, and the most famous star is Raul, the Spanish golden boy who was swept away by Real Madrid, and Manchester United is playing at home, and the players and fans are in a relaxed mood, thinking that there will be no accidents in this game, and the difficult thing should be the second leg away game.

Bookmakers and media are also unanimously optimistic about Manchester United beating Schalke 04 at home, and Ladbrokes even opened a two-goal handicap for Manchester United at home, which shows the great advantage of Manchester United.

Even though the strength is much stronger than Schalke 04, Ferguson did not underestimate the enemy, he still seriously prepared for the game, watched more than a dozen sets of video, and also carried out targeted offensive and defensive drills, completely treating Schalke 04 as a level opponent with Inter Milan.

At the end of the day's training, Gao Xiaodong came home for dinner and was watching a movie on the Internet, when he suddenly received a strange phone call.

"Xiaodong, hello, I'm Hao Jun. ”

Gao Xiaodong was a little unhappy when he heard this, and said, "Who are you, how can you have this phone number from me." ”

Hearing Gao Xiaodong's impatient tone, the caller smiled and said, "Xiaodong, my Hao Jun from Schalke 04, I asked for the phone from Brother Hai." ”

Gao Xiaodong remembered it suddenly, it seems that a player from China landed in the Bundesliga last year and played in Schalke 04, which caused a lot of sensation in China, Chen Qiang, Zhang Qi and others also told Gao Xiaodong, but for Gao Xiaodong, this is just a trivial matter, and Hao Jun did not perform much in Schalke 04, so he didn't take it to heart.

"Ah, you're Hao Jun, that ...... I heard you did well at Schalke 04. ”

Gao Xiaodong praised Hao Jun indiscriminately, but Hao Jun was a little embarrassed, because he was not even a substitute in Schalke 04, and he had few opportunities to play.

"It's a bad praise, the performance is very average, but this time I was selected for the squad to play against your Manchester United, if I play, Xiao Dong must be merciful. ”

Hao Jun is a little proud to say it, after all, as a substitute with an unstable position, being able to enter the Champions League quarter-finals to play Manchester United is a big achievement for a Chinese player.

However, Hao Jun definitely didn't want Gao Xiaodong's subordinates to show mercy when he called Gao Xiaodong today, he had ulterior motives.

After the end of the anti-crime and anti-counterfeiting storm in Chinese football, the football world has undergone earth-shaking changes, the chairman of the Football Association has changed, the national team coach Gao Bo is also very likely to leave class, and Gao Xiaodong also said that he wants to enter the national team and play for the country.

At this time, as the main midfielder of the Chinese national team, Hao Jun certainly hopes to be able to connect with the core of the future national team in advance, and the match between Manchester United and Schalke 04 in the Champions League just gave Hao Jun this opportunity, so he asked Sun Hai for Gao Xiaodong's mobile phone number and took the initiative to contact Gao Xiaodong.

"It's too polite, it's hard to say whether you'll win or lose, I can't do it if my subordinates show mercy, but if you come to Manchester, I'll invite you to dinner." ”

Gao Xiaodong is also a human spirit, he knows Hao Jun's intentions, but he also has his own Xiao Jiujiu, Gao Xiaodong has never played in China, nor has he played in the domestic league, he has no foundation in China at all, if he enters the national team, there are almost few acquaintances, so Gao Xiaodong also intends to marry Hao Jun, the absolute main force of the Huaguo team.

Hao Jun was flattered, and hurriedly said, "Xiaodong, thank you, I will definitely visit your house when the time comes." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome." ”

Hao Jun said: "Xiaodong, don't disturb your rest, let's talk when we meet." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "Okay, 88."

After hanging up the phone, Gao Xiaodong got up and came to the living room and said to the monkey: "Monkey, who called me just now?"

The monkey was watching TV and was familiar with English, he glanced at Gao Xiaodong and said, "Who? Emma? ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "No, it's Hao Jun, it's not an accident." ”

"Which Hao Jun ......" The monkey suddenly remembered, and said strangely: "It's Hao Jun from Schalke 04, what did he call you?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "There is nothing, that is, I hope I will be merciful." ”

The monkey shook his head slightly, "What the hell is this excuse, well, Hao Jun is looking for a chance to get close to you, what does he want to do? ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "What do you say he wants to do? I don't quite understand?"

After thinking about it for a while, the monkey understood, and said, "Hao Jun is a smart person, he is thinking about his position in the national team." ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled: "Aren't you braining, I haven't entered the national team yet." ”

The monkey smiled: "You have twice said that you want to play for the country, with your status, if you want to enter the national team, I don't believe that the Football Association will not welcome the team, as long as you enter the national team, no matter what kind of coach comes, you must be the absolute core, although Hao Jun is the main force under Gao Bo's account, but after the new coach takes office, he may not be able to continue to play the main force, and it is difficult to say whether there is even any hope of entering the national team. ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "That's what I mean, but that's fine, the national team is smoky and full of gangs, if I go back and don't have a helper, it's not easy to do." ”

The monkey said: "Yes, you look at Messi, he played in the club like a god, but when he arrived at the national team, he was constipated, mainly because the other players of the national team did not accept Messi, and Messi did not have the domineering national team teammates to suppress him, if you really want to enter the national team, I think you should learn from Messi's lesson." ”

Gao Xiaodong gave a thumbs up and said: "Your thoughts are the same as mine, the World Cup qualifiers will start in the second half of the year, and now we have to prepare for the national team. ”

Monkey said: "Yes, the pressure of playing in the national team is too much, but if you can achieve results in the World Cup, the impact will be much greater than the club winning the Champions League, to be honest, we missed the World Cup in South Africa, and we must not miss the World Cup in Brazil." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "If I miss the World Cup in Brazil, and then the next 18 World Cup, I will be old." ”

The monkey said: "Now that the domestic anti-crime efforts are very strong, and I am preparing to invite foreign handsome, I think it's time to return, we Chinese fans are looking forward to you day and night, including me, I am not happy that Japan and South Korea have been showing off their power in Asia for a long time." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "In the match with Schalke 04 the day after tomorrow, there is a Japanese player, I will destroy his prestige first." ”

The monkey laughed and said, "You're talking about Atsuto Uchida, it's better to abuse him well, it's better to abuse the shadows, it will be easier to fight in the national team in the future." ”

Monkey and Gao Xiaodong talked about the upcoming Champions League match, Monkey is also optimistic about the game, he thinks Manchester United have hope of securing the promotion place at home.

Although Gao Xiaodong didn't take Schalke 04 to heart, he didn't think that the first leg would decide the game, he believed that the German was very tenacious, and no matter how big the advantage was in the first round, the second leg was the most crucial.
