Chapter 056 2013 FIFA Awards Ceremony

The reason why Tang Zheng chose to travel to Morocco instead of returning directly to China was due to the kind invitation from Dortmund's top brass and former team-mates, and a series of comments from Dortmund fans under his Twitter comments, hoping that he would be able to appear at the venue of the Club World Cup final.

It happened that the Club World Cup final was the second day of Real Madrid's last league game before the winter break, and there was no conflict in time, so he pulled his girlfriend Zhao Lina, who had just finished the winter break of the French Women's Football League, to watch the Club World Cup final together.

After arriving in Rabat, Morocco, the 2013 Club World Cup final will be played at the Marrakech Stadium in Marrakech, a multi-purpose stadium with a capacity of 45,000 fans.

Although Tang Zheng is no longer a Dortmund player, his status in the hearts of Dortmund club and fans is very high, so there are a large number of fans who want Tang Zheng to appear at Marrakech Stadium.

Except, of course, for those extreme fans who don't understand.

As soon as he arrived at Marrakech Airport, Tang Zheng saw Zorke, the sports director in civilian clothes.

At the moment, everyone is busy with the final, and only Michel Zolke has a little freedom to be the boss.

Seeing his long-lost friend, Tang Zheng opened his arms to greet him, and the reporters who had been waiting for a long time around him kept pressing the shutter in their hands and recording the wonderful moment in the camera memory.

Tang Zheng, who came to Marrakech, watched not only the Club World Cup finals, but also the third and fourth place finals of the Club World Cup between Guangzhou Evergrande and Atletico Mineiro.

The interval between the two matches was not long, three and a half hours.

Tang Zheng chatted with Borussia Dortmund sporting director Zorke at Marrakech Airport on some regular topics, and then went to Dortmund's hotel to meet and chat with former club team-mates.

Hummels saw Tang Zheng from afar, took three steps and made two steps, tacitly stretched out his right fist, collided with Tang Zheng's raised fist, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a year, and your handsomeness has not diminished back then." ”

"This is a must!" Tang Zheng looked at Royce with a smile, and then looked at Hummels meaningfully: "I said Mats, even if I leave, it won't be your turn to do it, isn't there still Marco?" ”

Hummels gave a speechless roll of his eyes, and then put his arm around Lewandowski's right shoulder: "Hey~ We will win the six crowns of the season, no part of you." ”

"Cut~" Tang Zheng pouted and said: "I will have to win the Club World Cup championship sooner or later, but now you will win it before me." ”

Speaking of this, Tang Zheng paused, and confidently swept around other former teammates of Dortmund: "As for the six crowns, I will have it too." ”

For every word of Tang Zheng, the Dortmund players listened carefully and did not have any doubts.

Not to mention the overall strength of Real Madrid, Tang Zheng has been winning championships from the beginning of his career to the present, he is like a champion absorber, maybe it is really possible to win the six crowns.

Didn't Dortmund do that in the 2012-2013 season?

Immediately, Tang Zheng chatted with Yan Junling and Lu Liang, especially Lu Liang he excavated.

Although Lu Liang is ranked fourth behind Pogba, Draxler and Raphael Varane, the European Golden Boy Award selected a few days ago has a bright future, and at the age of 18 this year, he can still chase the 2014 and 2015 European Golden Boy Awards.

In addition, Lu Liang, who has returned to Dortmund this season, is in full form and can be a qualified main substitute between Mkhitaryan, Reus and Gotze.

Needless to say, Yan Junling, who is now Dortmund's number one goalkeeper, pressed Weidenfeld to the bench.

In the end, Hummels introduced Tang Zheng to Dortmund's new number 10, which is Mkhitaryan.

In fact, Tang Zheng and Mkhitaryan are not the first time to meet, and they have played against Shakhtar Donetsk on behalf of Dortmund in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League last season against Shakhtar Donetsk, which is more impressive.

To Tang Zheng's surprise, Mkhitaryan was very talented in languages, and in addition to his native Armenian, he could also communicate Portuguese, French, English, Russian, and German.

Only then did Tang Zheng know why Mkhitaryan was able to integrate so quickly in Dortmund......

The language barrier is solved, and no barrier is a barrier.

When Tang Zheng was about to go to the hotel room to rest, he saw Klopp and his coaching team coming from the elevator turnaround.

"Long time no see. ”

Tang Zheng subconsciously smiled and opened his arms and gave Klopp a big hug.

In Tang Zheng's heart, Klopp is his out-and-out Bole.

If there was no Klopp's discerning hero at the beginning, there would be no Tang Zheng's next great achievements.

※※※

At half past five in the afternoon local time in Morocco, the third and fourth place finals between Guangzhou Evergrande and Atletico Mineiro were played at the Marrakech Stadium, which can accommodate 45,000 fans, and there were no seats as expected.

Perhaps this is a bit early for the local Moroccan fans, or it may be that a large number of fans are preparing to watch the final between Borussia Dortmund and the host team Casablanca.

Tang Zheng and his girlfriend Zhao Lina appeared in the VIP seats of the Marrakech Stadium, and they watched the game together.

There are many highlights in the third and fourth place finals between Guangzhou Evergrande and Atletico Mineiro, first of all, Shenfeng Muric faces the old owner Atletico Mineiro, and then this game is also the curtain call match between Conca, the king of celestial bodies, and coach Lippi.

And the final highlight is from the former World Footballer of the Year Ronaldinho.

So there were a lot of Chinese elements in the Marrakech Stadium, and a large number of Guangzhou Evergrande fans cheered on the spot.

Even though the VIP seat where Tang Zheng and his girlfriend Zhao Lina sat was nearly 100 meters away from the stands of Guangzhou Evergrande fans, they could still clearly hear the huge cheers from Guangzhou Evergrande fans.

As far as the eye can see, the entire stadium is flooded with about 5,000 fans.

Soon, the game began.

Interestingly, in less than two minutes into the game, Atletico Mineiro, who had the better overall strength, broke the deadlock through a blitzkrieg by striker Tardelli.

Tang Zheng in the stands shook his head, and his girlfriend Zhao Lina asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"A common problem for domestic players. Tang Zheng sighed: "It is difficult to maintain the concentration of the game. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhao Lina is also a professional player, so she can naturally understand her boyfriend's analysis, so she taps her head.

Guangzhou Evergrande striker Muric killed the old owner and helped Guangzhou Evergrande take the lead.

Fortunately, in the ninth minute of the game, striker Elkeson hit the crossbar with a shot in front of the penalty area, and Gao Lin, who was following him, did not kick on target, and Muric made up the ball into the empty net to equalize.

Five minutes later, Zheng Zhi sent a direct pass from the midfield, and Gao Lin, who followed up at high speed, had a shot that was cleared, but the football did not completely lose control, and he chased after the football.

At the same time, Lucas was chasing the football, but Gao Lin's position was better, seeing that Gao Lin was about to catch up with the football, Lucas dragged Gao Lin in a hurry, and Gao Lin fell to the ground very smartly......

The referee on duty decisively blew the whistle and pointed to the penalty spot!

Conca hit with a kick, and Guangzhou Evergrande overtook the score!

The rest of the game went back and forth, with neither taking the opportunity they should have taken until stoppage time, when Atletico Mineiro won a well-placed direct free-kick on the edge of the penalty area with a quick counter-attack.

Atletico Mineiro's No. 10 Ronaldinho was as confident as a penalty kick and shot the ball into the corner of the goal, which was beyond the reach of the Chinese international Zeng Cheng Whip.

2:2

The third- and fourth-place finals were originally equivalent to entertainment games, and there was not much difference between winning and losing, so the 2:2 score in the first half was a great delight for many fans in the field and in front of the TV.

Especially the Chinese fans in front of the TV, they can watch the game while seeing China's number one star Tang Zheng through the close-up of the live director.

Also, his beautiful girlfriend Zhao Lina.

Fifteen minutes passed quickly after the break, and the second half changed sides.

The third and fourth place finals have never been a big deal, but both sides seem to care, they don't play conservatively at all, and the only thing that is a little lacking is that there are no goals.

The score of 2:2 did not take a major turn in the 86th minute, when Zhao Xuri defended Ronaldinho, he moved too big, stretched out his foot and stepped on the ball between the legs of Ronaldinho, who fell to the ground, and then Ronaldinho, who fell to the ground, made a retaliatory foul on Zhao Xuri, and was caught by the referee on duty.

Red!

When everyone thought that Guangzhou Evergrande would take advantage of the advantage of numbers to win the game, Atletico Mineiro, who played one less, reflected the danger that a strong team should have.

In stoppage time, Lu An, who came on as a substitute in the second half, scored a goal from defense to attack, and scored a goal to beat Guangzhou Evergrande.

Tang Zheng in the VIP seat shook his head helplessly, showing a trace of regret that Guangzhou Evergrande was defeated by Atletico Mineiro.

However, Guangzhou Evergrande lost to Atletico Mineiro is not unexpected, after all, there is a big gap in the strength of the two, and it is normal to win, but it is somewhat disappointing that it failed to grasp the opportunity in an advantageous situation.

After all, Tang Zheng once had a verbal agreement with Xu Jiayin, the boss of Evergrande, that he was going to join Guangzhou Evergrande in the twilight of his career, and it was normal to be concerned about Guangzhou Evergrande.

But in many cases, strength represents everything, and there are indeed unpopularity, but it does not mean that it happens often, otherwise it cannot be called an underdog.

An hour later, host team Casablanca took on Champions League winners Borussia Dortmund at the Marrakech Stadium.

Compared to Atletico Mineiro, the little-known Casablanca is obviously much easier to deal with.

From the moment the whistle blew, Dortmund had the absolute advantage.

Not surprisingly, it was only a matter of time before Borussia Dortmund scored and won the game.

Just seven minutes into the game, Hummels opened the scoring for Borussia Dortmund from a corner.

In the 22nd minute, Lewandowski helped Dortmund extend the score to two goals.

As a former Borussia Dortmund meritorious player, Tang Zheng grabbed the camera full when Lewandowski scored Dortmund's second goal, and he celebrated the goal so exaggeratedly that the live director gave him a close-up shot that was pushed to his face.

Yang 5 commentator He Wei joked: "Tang Zheng's reaction is both reasonable and unexpected, if it weren't for him wearing civilian clothes, I would have a delusion, he is now wearing Dortmund's No. 10 jersey in Marrakech Stadium." ”

After scoring two goals, Dortmund's attack slowed down and played with ease under the control of Gundogan and Shahin.

Mkhitaryan has the ability, but sometimes he is not bold enough in his judgment of choice, and some suffer from gains and losses.

In the words of the German media, wearing the best No. 10 shirt in Dortmund history put a lot of pressure on Mkhitaryan, which led him to rush to achieve results, hoping that he could play the role of Tang Zheng in the team.

Tang Zheng's attention was still on the game, but the score did not change until the end of the game.

In the end, Borussia Dortmund defeated Casablanca 2-0 at the Marrakech Stadium to win the 2013 Vision.

This title was also Dortmund's sixth in the entire 2013 calendar year, thus equalling the record of six crowns set by Barcelona in 2009.

At the end of the game, Tang Zheng took his girlfriend Zhao Lina's hand and went to the court under the leadership of the staff of Dortmund Club to share the 'hard-won't win' Club World Cup championship with the Dortmund players who won the championship.

The next day, Tang Zheng and his girlfriend Zhao Lina took a flight to Hong Kong, and then transferred from Hong Kong to Shanghai.

Happy times often pass quickly, and just after Christmas, Tang Zheng and Zhao Lina took a flight to Madrid together.

Women's Ligue 1, like men's Ligue 1, has a long winter break, so Zhao Lina was with her boyfriend Tang Zheng before the second half of the women's Ligue 1 event.

After all, being together has a mutually motivating effect, which is of great help to each other's career continuity.

Of course, in a period when both men and women are in high spirits, dry firewood is indispensable.

However, Tang Zheng is a professional player with high self-discipline, and he will never do things that affect his training status.

In the blink of an eye, the second half of the 2013-2014 La Liga season is coming.

The start of the second half of the season was a bit difficult for Real Madrid, because La Liga has 20 teams, a total of 38 rounds of home and away double round-robin, and only 17 rounds were played before the winter break, which means that 21 rounds of league games will be completed after the winter break, and there will be a Copa del Rey and European competitions in between.

The schedule is going to be very tight, so the second half of the season starts with two races a week.

Real Madrid's first opponent at the end of the winter break is Celta Vigo, playing at home.

The Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu Stadium were full of confidence, and although Celta were united to keep Real Madrid clean sheet in the first half, it was clear that they could not keep up with the fitness in the second half, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring twice and Benzema adding the icing on the cake.

Three days later, Real Madrid welcomed Osasuna, the opponent of the Copa del Rey 1/8 final, and they won 2-0 against the opponent.

As time passed, the focus of the mainstream media in Europe shifted to the 2013 FIFA Ballon d'Or ceremony.

But before that, Real Madrid have one more league game and they will travel to Catalonia to take on Espanyol.

During this time, Tang Zheng was undoubtedly the focus of attention.

In order to show their hot competitive form, Real Madrid, who visited the Cornera El Prat Stadium, defeated the home team Espanyol 1-0 away with Tang Zheng's sword, ushering in three consecutive league wins.

The next day, Tang Zheng flew to Zurich, Switzerland with his teammate Cristiano Ronaldo and others to attend the 2013 FIFA Awards Ceremony in Zurich.
