Chapter 25: Berlin, I'm Done!
"I went to Australia that year, and along the way, I had my old rival Philippines and many other good teams, and the one that impressed me was the 'All Australian Stars United' game played in Sydney. At that time, UM had a particularly famous center forward, nicknamed -"
"Australian Li Huitang!" Dai Pu laughed.
“??” Lu Zhuhu looked at them in surprise, of course it is common to use other stars as nicknames, what Montenegrin Messi, Chilean Ronaldo is too common in later generations. - Using Chinese names as nicknames, I'm afraid I'm beautifying.
"Haha! Brother Lu is younger, you may not know that Cousin Hui went to Australia with Nanhua at the age of 18, scored more than ten goals in four games, and played all the Australians convinced, and became famous in Australia, and the Australians called him the 'Asian Ball King'. Dai Pu explained that the display is not beautiful. After all, at that time, the newspapers reported one after another: "Ten thousand voices called for the king of the ball, and the blue eyes and purple hair praised it".
"Oh, I know, I know, that game-" Lu Zhuhu wanted to say that he watched that game live, and he was very impressed, and his pass against Argentina in the World Cup was a replica of the performance of 18-year-old Li Huitang in this four-man row.
But this also seemed too ridiculous and uninhibited, so Lu Zhuhu endured it and didn't say anything.
Zhou Xianyan continued: "I have been known for this person for a long time, and this gentleman and Cousin Hui do have a similar style, with great foot strength, and have a record of breaking the wrist of the opponent's goalkeeper. I was just a student at the time, and I was good at saying to my unfamous opponents, this kind of famous veteran - I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm really scared, uneasy, and I can't sleep well before the game. At this time, my teammates comforted me and said that this person was far away from Sydney and would not rush over, so I was reassured. That's when I felt a little more settled. ”
"On the day of the game, I remember that it was a night battle, because we went from Southeast Asia, won consecutive battles, and played very well in the first few games in Australia, which greatly boosted the morale of our Chinese, basically the expatriates who could come from Sydney came, the four seats were full, and the shouts were deafening. My teammates told me that the Australian center didn't come! I'm determined! It's all in you. ”
Dai Pu nodded and said: "I clearly remember that one - in the second half of the game, our side attacked in an all-round way, and Xianyan became the target of the public - but he couldn't help him, countless attacks were rescued by him, and finally there was a five-step attack was saved, a three-step attack was escaped by a fish jump, a scuffle in front of the goal, and was also cleared by jumping boxing, and our side narrowly won 3:2!" The big victory against the Australians is the most hearty of this one! patted Lu Zhuhu, pointed at Zhou Xianyan and said with a smile: "You don't know how beautiful he was that time, those of us who played as strikers scored so many goals, we couldn't compare to him." The expatriates were happy and said that this would be our 'national gate' of China from now on. After the end of the game, the overseas Chinese lifted him around the field for three weeks, and I don't know how many girl fans cried that night to marry him......"
"Brother Dai, this is nonsense, who is going to marry me!" Zhou Xianyan scolded with a smile: "But my teammates think that the three must-score goals have been rescued, and they think that they are amazing-how can I remember those, I know that I am excited, and I can save any ball." In fact, I also suspect that there is divine help, is it that the ancestors have spirits? As a result, entering the bathroom, we were in a shower with the Australian people. Lao Dai patted him and said, you want me to see the one next to me, who is it? ”
"It can't be so bloody, right?!" Lu Zhuhu shouted in his heart, these players look thick eyebrows and big eyes, I didn't expect the routine to be so deep!
"That's it- well, what does dog blood mean? Indeed, that is the 'Australian Li Huitang' I am most afraid of, and several dangerous Australian balls were shot by him, and they were all saved by me! ”
Zhou Xianyan shook his head, as if it were yesterday.
"If they hadn't lied to me at the time, I would have reflected on myself, I wouldn't have been able to save those balls, and I would have been so scared to see him unstable. But in fact, it is not clear how capable he is. If you don't try, how do you know that the opponent must be strong, and we Chinese are weak? ”
Since then, his psychology has become stronger and stronger, and his ball skills have become more and more stable, although he is still the student Zhou Xianyan, but it is not that he is afraid of the other party, but that the other party is afraid of him, and he has become famous in one fell swoop. After returning to China, Li Huitang also said that in this expedition, Zhou Xianyan's achievements were outstanding, and his ball skills improved rapidly, no matter how he compared, he was also an out-and-out "No. 1 goalkeeper in the Far East"!
In the 1930 Sports Games, the final Sino-Japanese finals, China fell behind three times, but all three times equalized, and in the end, because Zhou Xianyan pounced more and more bravely, the Chinese team Sun Jinshun, Dai Linjing and others also came up, and they were about to overtake. According to the rules, it should go to extra time, but the Japanese were already scared, refused to play overtime, and forced the Chinese team to tie for the championship, which was really shameless - but the host was Japan, so I had to endure it. As the only Far Eastern Games that Zhou Xianyan participated in, he failed to win against Japan and dominated the competition, which was the regret of his life. It's a pity that I can't go to the country again.
After talking about that experience, Zhou Xianyan didn't speak, looked at Lu Zhuhu, and drank by himself.
Lu Zhuhu was silent, the other party's meaning was so obvious, he understood it himself.
Sometimes the reason for a person's weakness is not the strength of the opponent, but the demons in one's own heart.
But looking back, what kind of "demons" can he have?
It would be because I was afraid that at this time I was playing ancient football, the original team that did not enter the tactics!
Although England is strong at this time, it is not a national team composed of League One champions Arsenal!
It's a strong amateur team at best!
Even if Arsenal participates this year, what is he afraid of! To tell the truth, Arsenal, which will compete for the fourth place every year in the future, is much stronger than the current "overlord" Arsenal. Based on his performance in the World Series, Wenger wants to buy him to Arsenal, and he may not be willing to go!
He doesn't know if it's because of the pessimistic and frustrating influence that pervades this era, he doesn't look like a "land chasing tiger" anymore!
If it is Lu Zhuhu, is he afraid of Evergrande, who is the champion of the AFC Champions League? Is he afraid of kicking Iran in the life-and-death battle? Is he scared of playing World Cup runner-up Argentina? Is he scared to go to Real Madrid to take on the toughest challenge and compete with those big stars for a midfield spot?
Afraid of hair!
In this era, Zhou Xianyan has a huge number of goalkeeper fans; Later, he had a huge number of international student fans who played football in Japan all the year round - in the final analysis, isn't it all their stupid energy that they are not afraid of the sky and the earth, and God is the first and my second child is stunned!
Lu Zhuhu raised the teacup and saluted Zhou Xianyan in return: "Brother Zhou has good intentions, and the younger brother understands." What a shame! Berlin, Lu is going to decide! ”
"Not to mention the possibility of competing with the great powers, even if you are not an opponent at all, what is there to worry about!" Lu Qihu said: "As a Chinese, it is reasonable to go to the country generously and see death as if you were going home!" ”
