Chapter 817: The Prince Returns!

Yang Fan became the winner of the 2009 European Golden Globe Award, which also set off a wave of Yang Fan fever around the world.

Milan Sport newspaper was 'obsessed' with the Chinese striker, and they then devoted almost two pages to analysing the new European Footballer of the Year.

"Yang Fan's strengths are concentrated in three aspects: first, his speed, his passing, his explosiveness and imagination, his sense of coordination and goal...... In addition, as the captain of the Manchester City team, although there is still a long way to go to a successful leader, Yang Fan has now become a qualified captain, if there is still room for him to tap into the team's influence, then his personal expression is almost magical, which has reminded people of a name: Diego Maradona.

Secondly, although Yang Fan is only 21 years old, he has already stood at the extraordinary heights that a footballer can achieve. In 2007, Yang Fan was only nineteen years old, and he entered the European Golden Globe Award squad, in 2008, he won the second place at the age of 20, and in 2009, he had all the sunshine alone, and after this Golden Globe Award, Yang Fan will not only stay at this height, but even go further in the future.

Yang Fan has won almost all of his accolades in the past year. At the club, he won the Premier League, English League Cup, FA Cup, European Champions League with Manchester United, and before that, the England Charity Shield and UEFA Super Cup, as well as the Club World Cup. The Chinese star, who has been excluded from the national team's big 'door' for some reasons, has recently returned to the national team, and with the return of Yang Fan, the Chinese team is likely to appear in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Even if the decision to transfer to Manchester City at the world's first value has been criticized by some people, but, after coming to Manchester City, Yang Fan became the captain of this team at the age of 21, at present, he has done a good job, although Manchester City is still far from the giants, but Manchester City with Yang Fan has become a team that has attracted much attention in football, this team has a set of 'color' players, under the leadership of the Ballon d'Or winner, the future is likely to become a force to be reckoned with in football.

The team's achievements and personal performances, the quality of the stars and the charisma of the individual, as well as the entire career, are the objective rules for the selection of the Ballon d'Or. Coupled with the "subjective" selection of 96 judges, under the magnifying glass, Yang Fan has become the star who most 'fits' these standards. That's why when he was only 21 years old, he filled the night sky and became the brightest star.

It's hard to explain why such a genius is so good, from a talented teenager to a professional player, and then to a shining star, only Yang Fan himself knows how such a transformation is accomplished.

Like Di Stefano, coming into this world like the wind, so quickly, so powerful, so far away. Di Stefano alone represented football, the team, and tactics. Yang Fan has not yet reached such heights, and we would rather compare him to Maradona. The current Manchester City is very similar to the Napoli of the past, a superstar led a group of 'outstanding' players in the battle, and Yang Fan's Manchester City is likely to surpass Maradona's Napoli in the future.

Of course, not only Yang Fan, but also Argentine Messi, Spaniards Xavi, Iniesta, Torres and Cesc Fabregas, Portuguese C. Ronaldo, England Gerrard and Rooney, Brazil Kaka, Cameroon Samuel Eto'o and Ivorian Drogba...... They all have the potential to create a new miracle and become the new king of the ball!

It's just that at present, Yang Fan is now popular, and he is the most worth looking forward to......"

"Congratulations on completing the 'Coronation Golden Globe Award' task, do you want to receive the reward now?" a voice sounded in Yang Fan's mind.

On the 'private' helicopter back to Manchester, Yang Fan, who was a little tired, was pretending to sleep when he received a prompt from the system Martin. Marshmallow Fiction Network, of course, he immediately chose to confirm.

Then a pleasant voice sounded in his head, and he couldn't wait to see the mission rewards and win the European Golden Globe Award, which was definitely a super boss-level mission, one of the tasks that he had been hanging at the highest end since he first entered the system a few years ago. It is conceivable that you will be able to reap a lot of rewards by completing this task.

The first is the reward of experience points, Yang Fan shouted in his heart, Shuang's muscles and flesh were trembling, he calculated for a while, the reward he received was enough for him to upgrade two levels in a row, which means that he can harvest four skill points!

Yang Fan thought about it, and added all these four skill points to the physical confrontation ability, as he is now more and more famous, the opponent's defense against him in the game is becoming more and more tight, and the defensive method is becoming more and more rough, enhancing the physical confrontation ability can also help Yang Fan fight his way out of difficult situations and look for those opportunities that are not opportunities.

In addition to the reward of experience points, the system also prompted that there were additional rewards, Yang Fan almost jumped up in surprise when he saw it, this reward was almost tailor-made for him now.

The reward is to shorten the injury time, which means that if he is injured again in the game, he can use this reward to shorten the recovery time, for example, if he needs to rest for half a year due to injury, then, after using this reward, he only needs to rest for three months!

This is definitely a reward beyond the natural foundation of the human body, because Yang Fan had asked Martin if there was a way to speed up the recovery of the injury after the injury, Martin said that there was nothing he could do, which made Yang Fan still a little depressed, and now it seems that it is not impossible, but it is necessary to complete a super heavyweight task to be able to reap the surprise reward.

The only thing that makes Yang Fan a little regretful is that this reward is a 'sexual', that is to say, after using it once, it will be gone, and he can only complete super tasks to win the reward again.

Yang Fan is already undergoing 'sexual' training, and he won't need this reward this time, but it's good to be prepared.

won the Golden Globe Award, and also received a large number of experience points to promote himself by two levels, and improved his physical confrontation ability, and also won the additional reward of 'shortening the injury time', which makes Yang Fan feel very good now.

The second day back to Manchester, this is not a match day, but, that night, Manchester City Stadium is full of ball 'fans', this is the Manchester City Club special celebration ceremony for Yang Fan, the whole stadium is full, in the huge cheers and applause of the ball 'fans', Yang Fan took the European Golden Ball just won to appear, and the sky above the stadium is also full of ceremonial 'flowers', which will dye half of Manchester City extraordinarily beautiful.

This is also the club's arrangement, Manchester City is not a giant', and Yang Fan's Golden Ball Award is needed more to boost morale, for this club, Yang Fan won the Golden Ball Award, which is not only Yang Fan's personal honor, but also the most memorable and celebratory thing since the establishment of this club.

Three days later, on December 12, it was rainy.

Bolton, outside Reebok Stadium.

Although the weather is not beautiful, but this kind of weather for the British, has long been accustomed to, one of the necessary tools for the football "fans" to come out to watch the game is rain gear, so the winter light rain can not stop the Bolton team's football "fans" to watch the game. Colourful umbrellas line up in front of the entrances to the stadium to form a long snake. When the umbrellas moved to the stands with the current, they all disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The stands resounded with the singing of the football "fans", it is the song "You Won't Walk Alone", this song is famous all over the world, the first thing people think of is that this is Liverpool's duet, in fact, this song is the favorite song of many teams' football 'fans', Bolton's football 'fans' sang "You Won't Walk Alone" in the continuous drizzle with their arms raised and sang loudly to cheer for the team.

It was a match in the 16th round of the 2009/2010 English Premier League season, with Bolton hosting Manchester City. It was a game that both sides took very seriously, with Manchester City not having easy access to a win over Chelsea in the last round of the league after seven straight draws, and then facing Bolton Wanderers, who will certainly be hoping to build on their efforts and get back-to-back wins. For Bolton, every game is now a decisive battle for them, with fifteen consecutive wins, three wins, three draws and nine defeats, only 12 points, currently sitting in the bottom two of the league, only two points ahead of bottom-placed Portsmouth, deep in the relegation zone, if Bolton do not catch up, they can only play in the Championship next season.

In this game, Yang Fan did not enter the squad for the competition, although he had already carried out 'sexual' training and participated in the intra-team competition, but, for the sake of insurance, Mark Hughes did not dare to risk letting Yang Fan, who had just started intra-team training, play in the official game.

Bridge is out injured, former Barcelona full-back Silvinho makes his first appearance for Manchester City, and Robinho, who has a conflict with Mark Hughes, is on the bench.

※※※※※※※

At Reebok Stadium, Bolton held a simple celebration and remembrance ceremony for their goalkeeper Askelainen, who was making his 400th appearance.

Bolton took the lead in the 12th minute when Matthew Taylor's cross from the left was met by South Korea's Lee Ching-ryong from distance and Krasnic slotted home from close range.

The goal sent the home stands by storm.

Manchester City equalised in the 28th minute when Bellamy's low cross from the left was narrowly cleared by Mwamba and Tevez fired a powerful shot from the edge of the box into the net for the Argentine's seventh goal of the season.

Before the end of the first half, in the 43rd minute, Bolton took the lead again when Stetson threw a throw-in and Gary Cahill curled a left-footed shot from the edge of the box on the right side of the box into the net.

Yang Fan, who did not travel to Bolton with the team and watched the game in front of the TV at home, hugged his head in frustration, but he also had to praise Cahill's goal, the Australian who has always scored some very beautiful goals.

A few minutes later, Yang Fan jumped up excitedly, because Manchester City actually equalized again in half-time stoppage time, Adebayo and Bellamy passed the ball in succession, the Welshman sent it to the right side of the penalty area, Bolton's attention was attracted by Bellamy and Adebayo, and Richards, who was unguarded at the far end, shot low and broke the ball 'goal' guarded by Askelainen.

Bolton took the lead again in the 53rd minute when Matthew Taylor's cross from the left was met by Krasnic in the box before Lescott could volley home.

This goal made the entire Reebok Stadium fall into frenzy, even in front of the TV, Yang Fan could still feel the madness of the ball 'fans' on the scene, because the cameras were shaking.

Yang Fan's mouth opened wide in surprise, he didn't expect Bolton, who was deep in the relegation zone, to have such a great ability, and actually took the lead for the third time, and that Krasnic's table was also quite 'fine', scoring twice in the game, and this volley barb 'shot' and 'goal' score was also the best 'fine' color.

This made Yang Fan anxious, the team was behind in the score, and the game process was also a "wave" and "fine" color, but he could only watch the game in front of the TV, which was a great torture for Yang Fan.

Fortunately, in the 77th minute of the game, Manchester City equalized for the third time, which made Yang Fan jump up and cheer again, Ireland passed, and Tevez 'shot' with his left foot from the edge of the penalty area into the far corner. The Argentine scored a brace and Tevez defended City with a goal in the absence of Yang Fan due to injury.

Manchester City drew 3-3 with Bolton Wanderers and failed to achieve a winning streak, and this draw also made Manchester City unbeaten in ten games after losing 4-5 away to Manchester United in the sixth round of the winning streak, although they only won two games and drew eight, but this is also the longest unbeaten record in the league since 1977.

※※※※※※※

The local media in Manchester did not criticize the team's draw this time, but praised the team's momentum in this game for falling behind three times and equalising three times, and incidentally praised the 10-game unbeaten run.

However, just three days later, in the 17th round of the Premier League, Manchester City lost 3-1 away to Tottenham Hotspur and suffered a heavy defeat at the feet of their opponents at White Hart Lane.

In this game, Yang Fan returned to the court again after being absent for nearly three months due to injury, and he sat on the bench, but Manchester City fell behind 0-3 when the game was more than 60 minutes into the game.

In less than ten minutes, Yang Fan still showed the level of a superstar, he hit the penalty area in stoppage time and provided an assist after connecting two people, and Tevez scored the football into the game, which was a little bit of face for Manchester City.

After this defeat, the "Manchester Evening News" expressed regret for Manchester City's defeat at the same time, but also expressed great excitement, because Yang Fan returned from injury, judging from his ten-minute substitute appearance, which gave Manchester City football 'fans' great confidence, and this ten-minute game was the best ten minutes of Manchester City in this fiasco......

Three days later, Manchester City Stadium, in the 18th round of the English Premier League, Manchester City hosted Sunderland.

The game has not yet started, the players of both sides are still in the dressing room and have not played, the whole stadium stands are already singing, and there is a light rain in the sky, but the Manchester City football 'fans' are high.

In the center of the stadium stands is a banner that reads: The Return of the Prince!

In this game, Manchester City coach Mark Hughes has announced in advance that Yang Fan will play in the game, which is undoubtedly a great thorn in the "stimulus" of Manchester City's football "fans", the whole stadium is full, everyone is to watch Yang Fan play, after a lapse of three months, they can't wait to see their prince's goal.

Flags flew throughout the stands, and slogans welcoming Yang Fan's return from injury and caricatures of Yang Fan could be seen everywhere.

As the huge banner said, this game means a lot to Manchester City: the return of the prince!

※※※※※※※

There was silence in the home dressing room. The players had just warmed up from the pitch, soaking wet, and were hurrying to change into clean jerseys. Mark Hughes stood at the 'door' of the locker room, watching his players do this in an orderly manner, while the assistant coach was a little anxious, raising his wrist to look at his watch from time to time. In this game, Manchester City is under great pressure, after losing 1-3 to Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City can no longer afford to lose, if they lose again, the distance between them and the top four in the league will be further widened, not to mention the top four in the killing league, it is dangerous to reach the top six in the league.

Mark Hughes cleared his throat, then raised his hand: "You guys are busy with yours, I'll say a few words." ”

When the players heard this, they all subconsciously stopped, turned their heads to look, and when Mark Hughes saw this, he waved his hand and signaled them to continue to be their own.

As the players continued to change their shirts, Mark Hughes cleared his throat again and said, "Well, three days ago, we lost to Tottenham Hotspur and lost after 10 rounds of unbeaten......

"But I think this defeat came at the right time, and to be honest, I don't like it at all, I even have some disgust at the so-called 10-round unbeaten run, and the reason you know is that we are unbeaten in 10 rounds and have only won two of them, which is a really bad situation. It's good now. Mark Hughes shrugged, "Losing to Tottenham, let's not talk about a 10-game unbeaten streak, from now on, from this game, we have to start on the road to real wins, because a player who is very important to the team has returned." ”

Mark Hughes paused for a moment and pouted at Yang Fannunu, "Our captain, Mr. Hello to everyone." ”

"Hi guys. I am back. Yang Fan stood up and greeted, "I ask to return to the team, in the name of victory, are you ready?"
