Chapter 746: Defending the FA Cup
On the eve of the FA Cup final on May 17, there was heavy news from Indonesia that Indonesian President Suharto had resigned, and he burst into tears when he issued his resignation statement, asking the Indonesian people to forgive him for his mistakes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, Suharto avoided the important when issuing the statement, he only admitted that it was his mistakes that caused Indonesia to plunge into an economic crisis, and did not admit other more serious accusations, such as corruption**, such as plotting atrocities against the Chinese behind his back, and he deduced that he was unaware of these accusations and that his subordinates did it from him.
But now, the most important thing is to get Suharto out of power, and to achieve this goal is a phased victory, and when he is gone, some things can change.
At the same time, Habibie, who was strongly recommended by Suharto before he stepped down, did not take over the post of Indonesian president as he did in real history under the strong opposition of various forces, including China and the United States, and Indonesia will hold a new presidential election in the near future to elect a new Indonesian president.
Wahid and Megawati, among others, who have good relations with China, are running for president, and they are also the most popular candidates to be elected.
For such a result, Ding Hongxing is still very pleased, Suharto's resignation was earlier than in his previous life, and his successor is no longer Habibie, in his previous life, Habibie did nothing after coming to power, and did not have any effect on the improvement of the situation of the Chinese in Indonesia, and whether it is Wahid or Megawati to power, their relationship with the Chinese is better, Wahid himself has Chinese ancestry, and Megawati has a faint shadow of China behind him.
In fact, in his previous life, both of them served as presidents of Indonesia, and they also canceled some laws that discriminated against the Chinese, which played a better role in improving the status of the Chinese.
Suharto's ouster made Ding Hongxing feel very accomplished and made him happy, and as a result, the Arsenal team was unlucky, in the FA Cup final held at Wembley Stadium, Ding Hongxing was radiant, he scored a hat-trick, helping Manchester City beat Arsenal 4-2 and lift the FA Cup trophy for the second consecutive season.
Manchester City's victory made Manchester City fans ecstatic, but Wenger was very helpless, in this game, there was no problem with his tactical arrangement, how could the opponent have Gundam, this Gundam is of course Ding Hongxing, Wenger no matter who he uses to defend him, even if they have the strongest defensive ability in the team Vieira, who is leaning on Wenger as the Great Wall's back, in front of Ding Hongxing, he is like an immature child, being teased by Ding Hongxing.
Wenger made remarks after the game, saying that Ding Hongxing is already a player who surpasses any other player, and he no longer knows what words to use to describe Ding Hongxing, some people said before that Ding Hongxing is very similar to some superstars in history, but he wants to say that the current Ding Hongxing is different from any player in football history, he is a unique player, and now he can be regarded as one of the top ten superstars in football history, if he can maintain his current level for a few more seasons, He can even become one of the top three players of all time, and he wouldn't be surprised if Ding Hongxing became the best player of all time at the end of his football career.
Arsene Wenger's remarks seem exaggerated at first glance, but think about it, this should be the voice of many football practitioners today, when facing Manchester City, they finally saw the hope of defeating Manchester City after great efforts, but often at this time, Ding Hongxing will stand up and stifle their efforts with a magical performance, this feeling is really difficult to accept.
Has there ever been a player like this in history? Isn't it only in fiction that players who are at the top of the world on both offensive and defensive ends, who are physically fit enough to play every game of the entire season, who don't need to rest for a minute, but who can always be in excellent shape, and who breaks out every three or five times and takes the game away. But now, in reality, there is such a player.
You must know that the Manchester City team now has more than 60 games a season, and Ding Hongxing's physical fitness is really jaw-dropping.
Arsene Wenger's praise has not caused any psychological turmoil in Ding's mind, and he is now fully preparing for the final and most important game of the season, which is the Champions League final on May 24.
The match was played against Manchester City and Juventus, and the final was played at the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium, the new home of Ajax, the first team Ding played for, and the stadium was opened in 1996, when Ding had already played for Manchester City for a season, so he only played there once, which was last season's Champions League semi-final away to Ajax.
Although it is not the stadium that Ding Hongxing was once familiar with, the game in Amsterdam is also very familiar to Ding Hongxing, and he has a wide fan base there, so Ding Hongxing must be like playing at home.
Ahead of the Champions League final, Barry. Hearn has been to Manchester once, he came this time to invite Ding Hongxing to participate in the second China Open held in Jiangcheng in June this year, Hearn is still very satisfied with the effect of last year's China Open, so he hopes to make the China Open a long-term competition, before establishing enough tradition, the most effective way to attract popularity is of course to let Ding Hongxing participate, it can be said that as long as Ding Hongxing participates, the ratings and advertising sponsorship of this competition do not have to worry, This is very beneficial to the overseas promotion strategy of the World Federation of Taiwan Compatriots.
For Hearn's invitation, Ding Hongxing happily agreed, this competition is held in June, it is his holiday, he has nothing special, why not participate?
In fact, Hearn knew that Ding Hongxing had a high probability of agreeing to participate in the competition, but he would not take it for granted that he would call Ding Hongxing, he still came to Manchester in person to invite Ding Hongxing in person, this behavior shows his importance and respect for Ding Hongxing, he knows that although he is the president of the World Taiwan Federation, this identity is really not enough compared to Ding Hongxing, Ding Hongxing is a noble person in snooker, he must have enough sincerity, if Ding Hongxing has any dissatisfaction and refuses to participate, This is unbearable for the World Federation of Taiwan Compatriots.
Now this result makes Hearn very satisfied, but Ding Hongxing asked him not to announce it now, and wait for the Champions League final to be announced.
