Hampton Stadium in Glasgow.

The final of the UEFA Cup, where St. Pauli and Espanyol are about to begin.

Before the game, Bergman attended a press conference and once again expressed his absolute confidence in the game, and Espanyol coach Valverde was very low-key, just seriously said that the key to winning is to play more fluently in attack, and the other is to block St. Pauli's No. 13 Zhen Shaolong.

Most of the media have a slightly better impression of Valverde than Bergmann, because the former is based on reality.

Latter......

How so? There was a feeling of shouting slogans, but there was no actual word, and only the German media, who wanted St. Pauli to win, would interpret Bergmann's approach as 'unwilling to disclose the news before the game'.

When the game is about to start, what happens before the game is meaningless, what matters is the performance of both teams.

At the signal of the referee, the two teams lined up and walked into the stadium.

At this time, the support shouts of fans sounded in the west stands, and then the shouts of fans also sounded in the east stands, "Zhen! ”

"Zhen! Come on! ”

The west side of the grandstand is St. Pauli fans.

St. Pauli fans support Zhen Shaolong, naturally there is nothing to say, but their number is not large, only about 5,000 people, there are more St. Pauli fans, all hope to come to the scene to support the team, but the official ticket sales only allocate 5,200 tickets to fans from Germany.

The shouts of support from the west stand could be clearly heard, and almost all the St. Pauli fans were shouting Zhen Shaolong's name.

The east side of the stands are local fans and neutral fans, as the camera lens pointed over, the audience in front of the TV noticed that there were many Chinese fans in the stands, they are all international students, overseas Chinese, etc., maybe Europeans with a lack of history will not understand this feeling, but the Chinese with a cultural heritage of 5,000 years will have a sense of blood connection, they came to the scene to cheer for Zhen Shaolong.

It was somewhat surprising to hear the voices of support for individual players, St. Pauli and Espanyol are not local teams, and Scotland and even England are also developed football countries, and their fans will not appreciate the football of Germany and Spain, but will be proud of the football of their own country.

In the atmosphere of fan shouts of support, many local fans have learned about Zhen Shaolong.

Meantime.

Much of the media's attention has been on the fan stands.

Not because of the shouting.

There were some big names in the stands, including Scottish football legends, important officials of the FA and UEFA, some famous football managers, club directors, and even current famous stars.

At this time, most of the league's clubs have entered the holiday in advance.

Among the many big names, there is one figure that attracts attention, and that is the most famous football agent in Europe - Jorge Mendes.

Mendes became famous with Mourinho when he signed for Chelsea, he won a big contract for Mourinho, and at the same time operated several transfers of more than 10 million yuan, and quickly signed one star after another.

Now Mendes has Deco, C-Ronaldo, Carvalho, Marquez and many other stars at his disposal, and his influence is becoming more and more great.

The British commentator wondered, "Mendes came to see the game?" Why? He must have a purpose, maybe for a certain player......"

"We may be able to wait for news."

Under the aura of a group of conspicuous celebrities, footballers and stars, the 52-year-old Allardyce is very inconspicuous, he has always been like a passerby, dressed very casually in life, even if he has just stepped down as Bolton manager, many people have forgotten his appearance.

Now Allardyce is wearing a sports shirt and big pants, sitting in the back of the stands, with no face to cover at all, but several cameras have swayed and have not noticed him at all.

Allardyce is not afraid to pay attention either.

The outside world only knows that he has left Bolton Wanderers, who has been in charge for eight years, but they do not know that he has already negotiated a contract with Newcastle United.

Now it's just a matter of signing a contract.

With a signing date set, Allardyce is getting to work quickly, and he came to Hampton Park to scout the players.

Zhen Shaolong!

Zhen Shaolong is regarded by Newcastle United as the most important target for summer transfers.

Among the contenders, Newcastle United are very inconspicuous and are considered the most important force outside the Premier League semi-finals, but their poor results in recent years have also led to the near oblivion of fans.

Two years ago, Newcastle United brought in Michael Owen in an attempt to strengthen their attacking line, but it proved unsuccessful.

Even if Irving's efficiency is not bad, but in the long-term glass man state, he can't play too much at all, and it is difficult to bring much help to the team.

Last year.

Newcastle United spent 30 million pounds to buy Martins and Duff, but this season, the team is only ranked outside the top 10 in the league, and the efficiency of the forward line has not improved, and the effect of the recruitment can be imagined.

This year, that is, the summer transfer that will start soon, Newcastle United will not admit defeat and have to fight, they hope to introduce a strong striker, preferably able to be used as a core striker, and with Martins, Owen and others, it is enough to make Newcastle United's forward line the most gorgeous and efficient forward in the Premier League and even Europe.

Newcastle United have taken a fancy to Zhen Shaolong, they have always been involved in the competition, but they have been ignored for a long time, and the top management has been a little anxious when they learn that Zhen Shaolong seems to be interested in joining Liverpool or Arsenal.

Now Allardyce's purpose is to help Newcastle United judge whether Zhen Shaolong is worth putting bigger chips.

Sam Allardyce is interested in the job, because Zhen Shaolong's performance is so flashy, gorgeous that the efficiency can be compared to the goal machine in history, and he has become a goal machine himself.

"How did he do it?"

'Why does he score so many goals?'

"What about his abilities? What are the chances of adapting to the Premier League? ”

These are all things that Allardyce needs to judge, and he showed a somewhat casual attitude, as if he was an ordinary fan who came to watch the game, but his eyes were fixed on Zhen Shaolong, because this work is very important.

"If we can add an extremely efficient goalscorer, we can lead Newcastle United to the last four of the Premier League next season and qualify for the Champions League!"

Allardyce thought.

————

on the field.

The competition has officially begun.

When St. Pauli launched the first wave of the offensive, Zhen Shaolong rushed to the front, and then felt that the Spaniards valued their defense.

That's the point of the passing route!

It is aimed at running!

It is also a target for players in various positions, rotating alternately close defense!

When St. Pauli attacked, the Spaniards' defense also paid careful attention to Zhen Shaolong--

"Mr. Valverde said, you must guard him! It's better not to let him get the ball! ”

"He's a big threat!"

"Just listen to the support at the beginning, he can still get the support of the fans when he arrives in Scotland......"

"This is a reminder that we must be more careful!"

“……”

Under the cautious defense of the Spaniards, Zhen Shaolong stood in front, and it was impossible to touch the ball during the normal attack.

When the St. Pauli attack ended, it was the turn of the Spaniards to attack.

The Spaniards were on the offensive.

Before the start of the game, St. Pauli was still a little unconcerned defensively, because they had played against Osasuna and defeated Sevilla by a big score, no matter how they thought about it, they felt that Sevilla was better than the Espanyol, but when it came to the game, they felt that the Spaniards' offensive was more threatening than Sevilla.

The Spaniard's repeated attacks and skillful cooperation made St. Pauli somewhat uncomfortable.

In the ninth minute, the Spaniard scored.

The goal happened very suddenly, before Eduardo Costa found the penalty area, striker Raul Tamudo did not stop the ball and met the ball and volleyed directly sideways.

The soccer ball flew towards the goal like a heavy cannon.

Goalkeeper Honarev was a little slower to react and could only watch as the ball flew past his hand and plunged headlong into the side net.

1 to 0!

The Spaniards are ahead of St. Pauli!

With Raul Tamudo's goal, the cheers of the Spanish fans were remembered in the stands, and the various commentators analyzed the goal and praised Raul Tamudo, while at the same time, they also considered the situation to be bad for St. Pauli.

"It was scored at the beginning, St. Pauli was a bit difficult to play!"

"The Spaniards are scoring too fast!"

"They got into the form very quickly, Tamudo's shot was very cold, there was a lot of power, there were some angles, the average goalkeeper couldn't catch it at all, which shows Tamudo's form, we can expect him to perform today!"

“……”

The St. Pauli players on the field also knew that the situation was somewhat unfavorable.

When the game was restarted, Zhen Shaolong waved at his teammates, telling them not to pay too much attention to it and giving them some confidence.

Meantime.

His mood was also conflicted.

It's not going to go on like this, the Spaniards are obviously in very good shape, the team's defense is stretched, let the opponent play the form, who knows how many goals will be scored?

"No!"

"That's ...... Can you win by strength alone? I haven't officially touched the ball until now......"

'It's only been 10 minutes, it's still a long time, but I can score and the opponent can score...... Using temporary skills? No, I've decided to win by strength......"

Zhen Shaolong's mood became very contradictory, and the contradictory mood also affected his performance, he ran half a beat slower after kicking off, obviously a little distracted.

Then, the ball rolled over.

St. Pauli passed the ball to the side through four feet, and then when Kreuzer received the ball, he found that Zhen Shaolong's position was a little behind, and he immediately shouted to pass the ball.

It's a match.

Zhen Shaolong is more than 20 meters away from the line of the big penalty area, naturally it is impossible to shoot, the nearest opposing player around him, the distance is also nearly four meters, Kreuzer passed the ball over, just to play a one-two with Zhen Shaolong, so that he can get rid of the defender.

But......

Zhen Shaolong was a little distracted, he didn't react immediately, he stopped the ball at his feet, and immediately the opposing player went over to grab.

"Catch?"

This is the first time he has officially received the ball!

Zhen Shaolong felt a little difficult, and when he saw the opposing players rushing over, he immediately figured out one thing - him!

What is cheekiness!

What about doing something weird?

Lao Tzu is thick-skinned, he just doesn't care, and the ball style is strange!

That's the characteristic!

It's a plus!

Each of your personalities is like a brother carved out of a mold, you can only be ordinary ordinary people, Lao Tzu is not a mortal!

Lao Tzu is systematic!

After figuring it out in an instant, Zhen Shaolong suddenly became open-minded, and his mind speed accelerated, he immediately used "Attack", didn't pay attention to the football at all, and quickly accelerated forward several steps.

At the same time shouting --

"Justice!"

"Glory!"

The shouts shook the sky!

Rufit, who rushed over to grab the ball, was a little dazed, he didn't understand why the opponent suddenly shouted at the same time as he rushed up.

Is it to remind teammates?

But what language does he speak? It doesn't seem like German made up of letters, right?

In Rufit's doubts, he saw Zhen Shaolong raise his right foot high, he was thrown away for a distance, and there was no time to stop it.

Meantime.

He also heard another strange shout--

"I'm invincible!"

"Bang!"

Zhen Shaolong shouted, and the next moment his right foot had close contact with the football.

The soccer ball raced into the air.

"It's a shot!"

"Attention!"

Zhen Shaolong was nearly thirty meters away from the goal, everyone thought it was a pass, and when the football rushed up, they realized that it was a shot.

The same goes for goalkeeper Lemens.

But......

When Lemmens reacted and made a save, he found that the ball was not slow and the angle was very tricky, he could only watch as the football rushed into the goal against the post, and there was no way to do it.

Ball--

Entered!
