Gao Xiaodong was chatting with Yang Fan, Yu Debao and others on QQ, when his mobile phone rang. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was Zheng Hua's mobile phone number who played in Charlton, Gao Xiaodong connected, and a slightly hoarse man said: "Hello, Xiaodong, I'm Zheng Hua, I'm in London, which hotel to stay in?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "Brother Zheng, I just arrived not long ago, and I stayed at the Rosewood Hotel. ”

Zheng Hua said: "I changed the hotel, I remember that you stayed in the Langham Hotel last time." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "Last time I lost 2:4, the coach and manager said that they were unlucky, so they changed to a hotel." ”

Zheng Hua smiled: "The Portuguese are also superstitious, Xiaodong, you played so well this year, even Manchester United was eliminated." ”

Gao Xiaodong snorted and said, "Luck." ”

Zheng Hua said: "Last time I wanted to invite you to dinner, you didn't give me a chance, this time I will be angry." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "Didn't you have to compete last time, this time I must accompany Brother Zheng for a drink." ”

Zheng Hua said: "Okay, I shouted Brother Hai, everyone get together." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "Okay, no problem. ”

Zheng Hua said: "When you play against Arsenal tomorrow, you must be ruthless, Arsenal has many players who have been seriously injured in the past two years, and there are also broken legs, they are very jealous of the fierce defense, the little children are timid, you scare and scare them, it is estimated that it will be empty, and the Premier League teams all beat Arsenal like this." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "I think the same way, I don't know what the scale of the referee is." ”

Zheng Hua said: "It's the Danish referee Larsson, the Nordic referee should be large, you see Fabregas die, beat Gibbs, seize this, Arsenal will have no play." ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled: "Thank you, Brother Zheng, your suggestion is similar to what our coach said." ”

Zheng Hua said with a smile: "In fact, anyone can see the weakness, but whether you can catch it depends on the strength of the team, okay, I won't be verbose, you have a good rest, tomorrow will have a good fight, and I will congratulate you after the game." ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled: "Thank you, Brother Zheng, see you later." ”

After hanging up the phone, Assistant Coach Emmanuel came over, "Xiaodong, train." ”

Gao Xiaodong looked at the Vacheron Constantin watch he had just bought and said, "It's just three o'clock, so I'm going to train." ”

Emmanuel smiled and said: "I have to advance a while, I didn't expect you to have so many fans, how much time was delayed on you when we got off the plane, and now there are still many of your fans waiting for you to sign autographs at the door." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "My fans are not Porto fans, this is for our team cheerleaders." ”

Emmanuel laughed: "Nonsense, the vast majority of them are Chinese, and they can be our fans of Porto." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "To support me is to support Porto, that's right." ”

Emmanuel laughed, "Count you and go." ”

When the players of Porto gathered out of the hotel, there were two or three hundred fans at the door, mainly Chinese students, overseas Chinese and fans who came to watch the game, some of them held high portraits of Gao Xiaodong, some held flowers, and some held "Fat Man Must Win" banners, waiting for Gao Xiaodong to come out.

Seeing Gao Xiaodong come out, the fans cheered, gathered around to give Gao Xiaodong gifts, and looked for Gao Xiaodong to sign an autograph and take a group photo.

When Gao Xiaodong saw so many fans, he knew that Emmanuel was right, which is estimated to take more than ten minutes to run for half an hour.

Fernando patted his ass with envy and said: "Team Gao, there are so many fans, this is almost like a superstar." ”

Hulk said: "Team Gao, I don't need to share a little bit of the gift, the fans have a beautiful introduction to me, I like Chinese girls." ”

Gao Xiaodong stuffed the flowers into Hulk's arms, "Nima, I don't have a girlfriend yet, why do you still want to snatch meat from the hungry wolf's mouth to eat." ”

The teammates burst out laughing.

The fans knew that Gao Xiaodong was going to train, so they didn't delay him too much, and it only took ten minutes for Gao Xiaodong to sign a group photo for the fans, and then take a bus to the Emirates Stadium.

As Porto had arrived a little early, Arsenal had been training at the Emirates Stadium when they arrived.

It was a rare opportunity to watch, and as soon as Ferreira waved his hand, the Porto players stood on the sidelines watching Arsenal train.

Coach Arsene Wenger is also very generous, not afraid of the Porto players watching, they still train step by step.

With the Porto players watching, Arsenal's youngsters were defiantly playing fancy passes and dribbles in training, and even street kicks.

Although Wenger didn't want the Porto people to think he was stingy, so he didn't stop training, but he didn't want the training to be seen by the Porto people, so he didn't stop the players from playing the ball.

There were reporters off the pitch, there were quite a few fans in the stands, and the Arsenal fans were shouting: "Yes, play them like this in the game." ”

"Play them to death and let them know what offensive football is. ”

"A bunch of guys who play football with savage movements, and they know what art football is. ”

……

The Arsenal players played for almost twenty minutes, with Arsene Wenger signaling for a call to work and the players packing up their things to leave the pitch.

At this time, Cesc Fabregas walked in front of Gao Xiaodong and said with a sarcastic smile: "Do you understand? ”

Cesc Fabregas spoke Spanish, which Gao Xiaodong could understand, and he said with a grin: "We don't understand what offensive football is, but I promise you won't understand it tomorrow." ”

"You ......," Cesc Fabregas sneered, "Okay, we'll see you on the field." ”

"Well, I'll wait for you. Gao Xiaodong still has a hippie smile, but the smile has become more obscene and sinister.

The manager was friendly and Wenger shook hands with Ferreira before leaving with his team.

After the acclimatization training, the Porto players returned for a tactical meeting, and the experienced Ferreira saw that the turf at the Emirates Stadium was short and too wet, and determined that Arsenal's attack tomorrow would be mainly ground-based, and should play the tempo very fast, he temporarily decided to remove full-back Sapuruna and replace it with a shorter, but more experienced and quick-turning Fusile.

After listening to Sapuruna, he was not very tall, after all, in such a big game, not being able to play had a great impact on his value, but after Ferreira talked to Sapuruna alone, Sapuruna still accepted the coach's decision.

After a night of silence, the next morning Porto had a one-and-a-half-hour training session, after which Ferreira attended the pre-match press conference.

In this press conference, Ferreira did not continue to show weakness, saying that they have won 11 games in England, with 10 defeats, and this time he hopes to break that embarrassing record.

In the afternoon, there was no training in Porto and the players returned to their hotels to rest their batteries and wait for the Champions League semi-final against Arsenal at 7.45pm.
