Chapter 40: Ljungberg's Monologues
Monday morning at 9:10 a.m.
"Xuanyuan God of War" received 283 votes, and "Reborn Football Myth" received 120 votes......
So subtract it, 30 votes for one chapter, and update five chapters...... Alas, brothers, if you add all the votes of "The Myth of Rebirth of Football" to "Xuanyuan God of War", then there will be 403 votes and 13 chapters of the ban......
Look, this is a good intention to do something wrong, so brothers, don't smash the ticket for "Football", and smash it all on "Xuanyuan God of War"!
--------------------------------
My name is Freddy Ljungberg, I just turned 22 this year and was born in Helmstad, Sweden.
I've always loved football since I was a kid and I scored my first career goal at the age of 16, which was my first time playing for Helmstad FC, which is not a big club in Europe, but it's my hometown.
The level of football in the Nordics is much worse than in the western countries, and I have to admit that my dream since I was a child was to go to the big five leagues, show my level there, and then represent the national team in the World Cup......
Although Sweden is not a world-class team, but in Europe, it is definitely not a lamb to be slaughtered, we have the strength, we have a glorious history, I believe that my arrival will make our national team even stronger!
The player I admire the most is Maravana, because of his great technique and rebellious personality, no one here understands me and it doesn't matter, they laugh at my red hair, they laugh at my ideals, but I believe that one day, I will shut up these people!
And I believe that day is not far off......
In Helmstad's home players' tunnel, I looked at the guy, the white-haired one was very recognizable, that person was Ling Feng, a white-haired seventeen-year-old boy; The Chinese football king shrouded in countless halos, yes, many people have begun to call him the football king, the third football king after Pele and Maradona.
He's qualified. He was still young. I have already achieved such results, although I am not convinced. But I also know that that guy's fame is not just praised.
He's also looking at me, hehe, maybe my hairstyle is weird, I'm afraid a player like him won't know the name of my current nobody, but after this game, he will remember me firmly and remember the first defeat I bringed!
The more I look at that guy now, the more annoying it becomes! At a young age, with white hair, who knows if it was dyed or if he said he formed himself?
In all fairness. According to his level. Top stars are counted. At least I saw his goal highlights and asked myself if I could do it - but hate is hate, there is no reason, it's just a 17-year-old kid, can a 17-year-old kid from China be the king in today's football?!
But after this game, I changed my mind. A football king is not only a skilled player, but also an admirable character, and I didn't expect that this guy who often kicks the ball off the pitch would have such a side, or was I too biased against him before......
It happened 17 minutes into the first half, and we had a tight game with Fiorentina, with both sides having one or two chances, but neither of them could break through the door, and with the cheers of our 30,000 Swedish fans, even the best club in the world today couldn't bargain with us, and we almost broke their door!
That big black man in France has a very strong defensive ability, but I am not necessarily weaker than him, and in the one-on-one confrontation, I still have a certain advantage - but that Ling Feng ......
I really haven't seen such a player, running tirelessly, he goes up when he attacks, he comes back to participate in the defense, doesn't he really feel tired?
And he's fast, we're the same type of player, and in terms of speed, I'm a lot slower than him, so if he comes and defends me, then it's hard for me to play to my strengths.
But luckily, he doesn't have a lot of time to defend me when he has to attack, and my team-mates do a great job and they make the most of their physical strengths, which is our characteristic.
The best chance of the first half came!
It was the best chance for me, but I think no one would think it would go in before I had a shot!
It was a fast-break opportunity, and after Baggio's shot was blocked, Melburg cleared the ball with a big foot, and after we played a one-two in midfield to dodge the big Frenchman, Orlov's pass was headed out by the number 13.
The ball was right in front of me and I subconsciously controlled it, but I knew that our fast break was ruined by the pause.
But the ball was still at my feet and we had a chance, and it was a good chance for Arisandersen to cut in from the wing, and we had the advantage for the header.
However, the No. 15 French black man was really good, and he had already judged my intentions when I was out of the way, and Alexandsson couldn't comfortably pass the ball into the box.
But he still tried hard, the ball was passed to the middle by him, but it didn't land well, there was no one in that position at all, and it was the number 13 again, and he threw the ball out with a header.
Wait a minute! The ball is coming at me, and if you volley it before it hits the ground, you'll have a good chance! I couldn't think about it anymore, and my instinct as an attacking player I rushed up and picked up my right foot and slammed it at the ball in the air!
But the moment I jumped, I saw a purple shadow in my peripheral vision, someone next to me, and he would interfere with my shot!
Just as my foot was about to touch the ball, I could already feel the man's foot kick towards my leg.
He wants to use a foul to stop me from shooting?!
But for some reason, I still kicked the ball without hindrance, and it felt very accurate, and the moment I landed, I heard the earth-shattering cheers from the side of the pitch.
The ball is in! We're ahead!
But I didn't have time to look at the ball in the goal, so I quickly turned around and looked back, and there was a man lying on the ground, wearing a purple jersey and him - white hair!
Ling Feng!
Why didn't he stop me just now? I'm sure he was able to touch me. In that case, my shot must have been blocked. A goal will turn into a free-kick in front of the court, but why. He fell to the ground?
Instead of cheering, I stared at the big screen and watched the slow motion playing.
The moment I started, Ling Feng had already rushed to my right front and stretched out his foot against the ball.
Obviously, he was farther away from the ball than I was, so he flew up and tried to break it.
But I was still a little bit faster than him and I was definitely able to touch the ball first. But at that moment he will also touch my feet. If that's the case. At such a fast pace, I'm definitely going to get hurt.
But the moment my foot touched the ball on the screen, that Ling Feng suddenly leaned over and pulled his foot away!
I managed to finish the shot, and he managed to dodge my feet, lost his balance and fell to the ground......
He did it on purpose?!
Ljungberg could not have imagined that in such a fierce game, the opposing player would rather give up the opportunity to block the opponent's shot in vain in order not to kick the opposing player!
In the two and a half years of competition, Ling Feng has attracted the attention of the world since his debut, but he has not eaten a single card in two and a half years, not even a yellow card!
As for him kicking people with the ball, uh, the rules are not fully regulated, so I won't talk about it......
Ling Feng got up from the ground, spit out the grass in his mouth, and gritted his teeth at Yongbeiri, at that moment Yongbeiri knew what the real work ethic was......
However, Ljungberg, who walked back to his own half, didn't hear the conversation between Ling Feng and Effenberg, otherwise......
Effenberg: "Ling, what's wrong with you just now, why didn't you block that red-haired shot!"
Ling Feng: "You don't want to!" Damn, my foot twisted at the critical moment, what can I do?!"
A few years ago, when Ljungberg, who played for a club in China, was interviewed, a reporter asked him why he was willing to give up Arsenal's treatment to come to China when the Chinese league did not reach world-class heights, Ljungberg just said: "Because Ling Feng came to me." ”
Uh, hearing this, Ling Feng was inexplicable, could it be that his popularity was really so good? Or is it that Ljungberg guy has a special affection for himself......
SWEATING ......
Helmstad did not hold on to the lead for long after the goal, and at the end of the first half, Ling Feng also equalized the score with a long-range shot.
The first half ended in a draw, and no one blamed Ling Feng for not blocking Ljungberg's shot at halftime, because for Fiorentina, although the Helmstad team was a little difficult, it was not a great headache, mainly because their players were physically fit and more accustomed to using their bodies to break the ball.
In addition, this is the home stadium of Helmstad, and the referee's decision is inevitably a little biased in favor of the home team, so cutting off the ball of the Fiorentina player under physical contact is not considered a foul.
Even so, after Fiorentina adapted to the characteristics of the opponent, their technical superiority was revealed, and it was clear that a group of guys who were half a beat slower than the opponent would have a hard time to prevent the opponent's surprise attack, especially in terms of fast attack, Baggio, Ling Feng and speed combined with Effenberg and Rui Costa in the right pass, the Helmstad players had to shrink in the box to avoid such bombardment.
When it comes to playing behind the ball, no team can compare to Fiorentina, and when it comes to fast breaking, the ball behind it becomes the magic weapon of the team!
Just five minutes into the second half, after Baggio received a wonderful pass from Ling Feng and scored a counter-goal, the form on the field was no longer up to the Helmstad team.
Although Ljungberg tried his best to run in the front, but Maradona specifically instructed Cannavaro to come forward to help defend at halftime, under the pressure of Vieira and Cannavaro, Ljungberg was really not in a good chance, and his teammates gradually lost the threat to the Fiorentina gate after losing the firepower support of the red-haired teenager, and could only use his body to fight for the header through crosses from the wing.
But when it comes to head-taking, ground is Nesta's forte, and Helmstad's defenders hate the damn No.13 to death, and he can completely control the entire threat area around the small penalty area by himself!
In the 19th minute of the second half, Effenberg's plug-in shot gave Fiorentina a two-goal lead, and it also completely declared the defeat of Helmstad - for such a large group of superstars, Helmstad's defenders really felt the disadvantage of two feet......
The final score was fixed at 3:1, and Maradona replaced Barty, Baggio and Ling Feng in succession at 25 minutes in the second half, because in order to prepare for the game against Juventus, it was not appropriate to let the main scorer continue to stay on the field - in case of injury, it would really be worth the loss.
In the final moments of the game, the head coach of Helmstad was very bold to bring on three attacking players, but Schupchenko almost took advantage of the holes in their back line to extend the score - although unwilling, but the difference in strength was there, and their only gain was to get a yellow card for Carlos......
However, the result of the game is still acceptable to the Swedes, after all, if you want to win against Fiorentina, it is not something that ordinary people can do, and it is already very good to be able to lead the opponent on their home turf.
How do you say that sentence, I don't care about how long it lasts, I only care about what I once had...... I didn't have much hope for this game, and the only thorn in the head, Ljungberg, was honest after the game, and even exchanged jerseys with Ling Feng - which made the other players very angry! Thankfully, Fiorentina are all top stars – even not now, and it won't be long before they are, and it's a good feeling to trade such a memorable $23 outfit for a memorable one......
It's just that poor Ljungberg doesn't know that his own carelessness has sent him into the thief ship - this world should never think of others too evil, and of course, never think of people too kind......
