Chapter 138: The Wonderful Old Song Eto'o

Lao Song is a wonder in the World Cup and a legend.

Since the first edition was held in Uruguay in 1930, the World Cup has gone through a full 70-year history. In those 70 years, only two players have participated in five of them, and no one can beat it. Mateus and the legendary Mexican goalkeeper Cabajal and the football king Maradona are not as good as them.

In addition, there are seven players who have played in four World Cups, and Pele is not as good as them.

Of the nine awesomes, only two are still active players. Italy's captain Cannavaro and Cameroon's veteran captain Rigbert Song are in their fourth World Cup.

Old Song is a remarkable man, like Mutombo in the NBA, his real age is no longer known. But judging from historical records, Lao Song became the youngest person to appear in the 1994 World Cup in the United States at the age of 17, and although Ronaldo was two months younger than Lao Song, he did not play in 1994.

Lao Song has set a lot of records at the World Cup, and in 1994 he was sent off for a match against Brazil, becoming the youngest red card in the history of the World Cup, and the record still stands. In the 1998 World Cup in France, Lao Song became the youngest captain in the history of the World Cup, and the record remains to this day. But Tigan's captaincy failed to avoid a red card, and Lao Song became the only person in World Cup history to be sent off in the group stage for two consecutive editions.

If it weren't for the unexpected defeat in the 2006 World Cup African qualifiers in Germany, Lao Song would have become the only peak of this year's World Cup who has participated in the World Cup five times. Zhuo Yang sometimes thinks that as long as Lao Song is happy, maybe he can play until he retires with his nephew Xiao Song, isn't Mutombo with Yao Ming.

Lao Song also created a good story in this World Cup, he and his own nephew Alexander Xiao Song appeared in the Cameroonian lineup, Lao Song originally regarded Xiao Song as his own, the so-called father and son soldiers.

Uncles and nephews are in the same battle, and Lao Song and Xiao Song have become the only ones in the history of the World Cup.

The relationship between Lao Song and Zhuo Yang is very iron, and their friendship has been six years so far. Although the experience of Madibao was not good for Lao Song, the friendship with Zhuo Yang was undoubtedly a great harvest for him.

In fact, when he went to Fort Madi six years ago, Lao Song was no longer at the peak of his competition, but six years later, Lao Song is still the anchor of the Cameroonian backline and has to be served.

In the second round of Group F, the Chinese team will play Cameroon at the Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, Lao Song said that he should weigh Zhuo Yang well, Zhuo Yang said that I don't have the same knowledge as your old guy, you help me ask that Eto'o, ask him if he is convinced.

Lao Song has always wanted to tell Zhuo Yang and Eto'o to agree, but he has never been able to open his mouth, not that he is not big enough in front of Zhuo Yang, but that he has touched a nail in Eto'o.

Eto'o is a person who likes to scramble, fighting with Messi after fighting with Ronaldo at Barcelona, and fighting with Lao Song in the national team. After the 05-06 season, Barcelona's Samuel Eto'o was home to the world's top striker, and he began to clamoring for the captain's armband in the national team.

Lao Song, who has been exiled to play in Turkey, is not unable to provoke him, and Eto'o doesn't take him seriously when he takes a cube, but Lao Song is a person with a realm. Since leaving Madibourg, Lao Song has taken fame and fortune lightly, there are many things in his life that surpass football, and the captain's armband is just a vanity.

In 07, Lao Song gave up the armband Zen to Eto'o, full of kindness like a father.

A few months ago, in the players' tunnel in Meazza, the disgruntled Eto'o reached out and was almost kicked into a concussion by Zhuo Yang. After Lao Song learned of this, he felt that both sides were his own people, so he wanted to talk about it and turn the conflict into a jade silk.

Zhuo Yang has nothing to do with this, Lao Song wants to give face, and he doesn't suffer a loss. But Lao Song was bored with Eto'o: what was there to say, Lao Tzu couldn't talk to him. Eto'o said this in a rather aggressive tone.

Zhuo Yang is a smart person, seeing that there is no response from Lao Song's side, he guessed the matter one or two, so he smiled indifferently and didn't ask Lao Song again.

Since the road is up, it is good to wait for the pitch to see the highs and lows, but in the first round, Eto'o's goal put Cameroon and defending champions Italy in a par, and Zhuo Yang returned to the bottom of the group with the Chinese team empty-handed, which is considered an opportunity for him to find a taunt.

'I'm the best striker in the group, there's no doubt about that. I'll lead Cameroon and Italy to qualify, and this goal is just the beginning. Eto'o said: "Paraguay are a very good team and they will be a strong contender in this group. ”

There is no reporter who is not a chicken thief: "What about the Chinese team and Zhuo Yang?" ”

"Huh." Eto'o turned and walked away.

Cameroon and the Chinese team arrived in Johannesburg on the same day, but they stayed at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, 10 kilometers from Hilton, and did not meet the Chinese team before the game. After the reporter relayed Eto'o's contempt, he waited for Zhuo Yang to start the war with a twinkle in his eyes.

"The best striker in Group F? Plum goldfish, of course! Big Fish's goal, tsk, the average striker can't play at all, don't even think about it. Let me tell you, Li Jinyu's goal is likely to be not only the fastest goal in this World Cup, but also the best goal. Let's wait and see! "Praising oneself is reasonable and politically correct, and no one can find fault.

The reporter was unwilling: "What about you?" Don't you think you're the best striker in Group F? ”

"Are you stupid? I'm a midfielder! Quack Quack ......"

The reporter was still not reconciled: "Please comment on the next opponents Cameroon and Eto'o." ”

"Cameroon is undoubtedly a respectable and very strong team and they have an amazing history at the World Cup. Cameroon has football monuments such as Mila, Nkono, Bijek and Rigbert Song, as well as outstanding young players such as Alexander Song and Nkulu. ”

"Eto'o......"

The reporters' ears were two feet long.

“…… He's a very good striker and he's scored many, many goals at Inter Milan this season (note: 16). It's no secret that Samuel Eto'o learned a lot of magic from Ronaldinho during his time in Barcelona. After that, Messi, what kind of people are these two? Samuel Eto'o grew up fast around them. So it's no surprise that Samuel Eto'o can be a very, very, very good striker now. ”

Eto'o almost vomited blood, Messi couldn't stand up straight with a smile, and Lao Song felt that something bad was going to happen.

Ellis Park Stadium is hosting five group games, and the Hilton Hotel has just left Messi and his Argentina before the Chinese team arrives. When Zhuo Yang and the Chinese team were about to face Cameroon, the Spanish team also came to Cape Town, and Zhuo Yang and his Barcelona team-mates met at the Hilton Hotel.
