Chapter 34: Tournament Commander

The 'Voice of the Premier League' programme radio hall.

The game was still going on on on the big wall-mounted screen, and the clock was 80 minutes into the game, and the score was 1-1 between the two teams.

Manchester United went on a frantic second-half offensive campaign but have so far failed to breach the Queens Park Rangers goal.

Dennis quipped about this, saying that Manchester United could draw against Queens Park Rangers.

That was definitely not good news for Manchester United.

Under the rules of the English League Cup, a draw would mean a shift in pitch and the two teams would go to Old Trafford to decide the winner, a win would be nothing for United, but they would have to play an extra game in a packed tournament and consume more energy for nothing.

Zhang Yang has always echoed that he is an important participant in the show, but in recent topics, he is just following the rhythm of Denise.

His mind is not here.

Previously, Queens Park Rangers did not choose to make a substitution, which made Zhang Yang think about the problem of 'wrong prediction'.

This mistake is nothing in the eyes of others, but Zhang Yang must know the reason for the error, because it is related to the accuracy of the prophecy.

That's his biggest chip!

Then Zhang Yang began to make a tentative analysis, and he made a series of predictions for the game in succession.

"Rangers should pay more attention to the defense on the left side, Manchester United's full-back C-Ronaldo is an opponent that the Rangers defenders can't defend!"

"Manchester United should probably pay attention to the accuracy of the pass at the front of the penalty area!"

'It's a dangerous corner, you have to pay attention to the back post, especially Rio Ferdinand, who can follow at any moment!'

“……”

After several judgments in a row, some differences appeared.

In the prediction screen just now, Ferdinand outflanked the ball into the goal, but in the real game, under the restrictions of the Rangers defenders, Ferdinand could not grab the ball, let alone score.

What is the reason for this?

After more than ten minutes of testing and observation, Zhang Yang also found a pattern: his predictions for Manchester United were accurate, but in the case of Queens Park Rangers, the predictions became inaccurate.

Zhang Yang has been thinking about it.

Time didn't follow his mind, and when the referee blew the final whistle, the game was over.

In the end, Rangers drew 1-1 at home to Manchester United.

At the same time, the 'Voices of the Premier League' show also came to an end, with Denise giving a brief summary of the game, after which the music switch was turned on, and the show ended with the sound of music.

After turning off the sound, Dennis took off his headphones and looked at Zhang Yang with a twisted brow, "What did you do just now?" Later in the time, you are completely out of shape. ”

"I'm sorry." Zhang Yang shook his head, "I may be a little sleepy, the show is too long." ”

"You should get your body in shape before the show."

Denise was a little dissatisfied with the admonition, and then she didn't pay much attention to it, and Zhang Yang was a little out of state in the back, but the show was still successful as a whole, and many of Zhang Yang's predictions were also very accurate, but she didn't have to care about a little flaw.

The same goes for the comments from the audience.

Fans of 'Personality Publicity' Weibo are still the first time to see a small error in Zhang Yang's prediction, but they don't think there is anything, this day is just early and late, just like Zhang Yang said, 'Who can say accurately in a football game', and it is normal to have mistakes in the judgment of the game.

On Weibo messages, you can see netizens' satisfaction with the show, and there are also a small number of special speeches, which will attract attention and controversy.

For example, a netizen said, "It seems that Zhang Yang knows Manchester United very well, but he lacks understanding of the Champions League team, and throughout the program, Zhang Yang's judgment of Manchester United is all correct, and Queens Park Rangers are worse." But understandably, who would have thought that Rangers would draw at home to Manchester United? ”

This comment received a lot of support, with more than five hundred 'likes' alone.

Below the comments, there are other netizens' discussions--

"Yes, Zhang Yang doesn't know anything about Champions League teams."

'Rangers are just a Championship promotion horse, who knows them, I don't even know the name of any player.'

"It's understandable that there are some small mistakes in Zhang Yang's judgment."

"But no matter what, this issue is still very exciting, and I look forward to Zhang Yang hosting more wonderful football programs!"

“……”

BBC Headquarters Building.

Lineker, Harris, and many netizens have the same judgment, they think that Zhang Yang's analysis of the game occasionally has some small flaws, but the gap between flaws and Yu is too big, compared with ordinary football commentators, Zhang Yang's ability to analyze and predict the game is outstanding to an incredible extent.

When the game fell behind on the TV screen, Harris stood up with his hands propped up in the chair and made an assessment, "Gary, like you said, this young man's ability to analyze the game is breathtaking!" ”

"I've said that a long time ago." Lineker laughed, "If you listen to the last episode, you'll be even more surprised that his judgment wasn't wrong in the slightest." ”

"It's a normal little mistake. It doesn't matter if it's bigger. I always felt that no one dared to predict football games, but now I have changed my mind. "His only drawback is that he's too young, too thin, and he's a Chinese." ”

"Yes, Chinese football is indeed not easy to be recognized."

"But that's okay, he has a lot of potential, you can try to get him on your show first." His London accentuation is good, very relatable, and if I didn't know, I would have thought he was a pure Londoner. ”

He was ready to leave.

Lineker sent him to the door and finally said, "So we should celebrate tapping a promising up-and-comer?" ”

"Let's wait until it's signed."

Harris laughed.

After the 'Voice of the Premier League' program, Zhang Yang did not say more greetings in the radio group, and immediately went home on the grounds of busyness, and when he pushed open the door, John and Catherine were drinking red wine together.

"Why do you remember to drink red wine?" Zhang Yang was a little surprised.

John poured Zhang Yang a glass, brought it to him, and said excitedly, "It's to celebrate you!" We listened to your show together and it was amazing! Zhang, you're such a great match analyst! ”

"Did you listen together? Thank you! ”

Zhang Yang sat down at the dining table, drank red wine with John and Catherine, and drank two glasses in a row before the small wine bureau was dissolved.

Zhang Yang returned to the bedroom on the third floor.

Catherine, who was cleaning up the dining table, saw his back going upstairs, frowned slightly and said to John, "Zhang seems to be a little unhappy?" ”

"Is there one?"

John sat on the couch and took a sip of beer, looking at him suspiciously.

"I don't think you can see it."

Catherine ignored him, and when she had finished tidying up the dining table and kitchen, she went up to the third floor and knocked on the door.

"Please come in!"

Zhang Yang is looking at today's game video, and he wants to watch it carefully to find out the reason for the 'inaccurate prediction'.

Catherine pushed the door in, sat casually on the table, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Look you're a little unhappy. But I think your show is doing a good job. ”

"It has nothing to do with the show."

"What's the reason for that?"

Zhang raised his brows and shook his head with a slight frown, he couldn't explain it to others.

When Catherine saw him, she didn't ask at all, but walked around the bedroom, Zhang Yang was watching the game video, there was always the sound of footsteps behind him, how did he feel awkward, he turned around and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Catherine looked around, her expression seemed to be a little irritable, her breathing began to be rapid, she held it for a while, and finally couldn't help it, "Look at your room!" It's like this! Oh, my God! Is this where people live? The streets are much cleaner! No, I have to clean up, I can't stand this mess! As she spoke, she pushed the door open, as if to get a tool.

Zhang Yang was a little confused and looked left and right.

The quilts are folded, the things are neatly arranged, the floor is still clean, and the rare clothes are not littered, and they are hung very neatly on the wall.

What the hell is the mess?

"A cleanliness maniac with obsessive-compulsive disorder!" He could only scold fiercely.

Catherine soon walked in with a broom, a vacuum cleaner, a towel and other tools, and she began to clean up.

Zhang Yang continued to watch the video patiently.

But there was always someone spinning around behind him, especially the noise of the vacuum cleaner continued to ring, and his mood became irritable.

Zhang Yang simply turned around and chatted with Catherine, "I will share with you a work matter, now I have the opportunity to go to the BBC headquarters, and I will become a football analyst, and I may be on TV in the future......"

"Congratulations!"

Zhang Yang ignored Catherine's interruption and continued, "Do you think I will have a future as a football program host?" ”

"Soccer presenter?"

Catherine stopped what she was doing, stared at Zhang Yang carefully and thought about it, shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, I don't know what the host needs." But I think you have a future if you go to be a game commander! ”

"Tournament Commander!"

"yes!" Catherine put down the vacuum cleaner and said energetically, "When I watched the show with John, I said that you should be a match commander, because you have a strong ability to analyze the game, you can always see the problem, and then you can adjust the problem accordingly, and the team you command can easily win." ”

"Wait." Zhang Yang interrupted, "What kind of competition commander! ”

Catherine said, "You can't be a manager, you're too young and you haven't played, maybe an assistant coach?" ”

“……?”

Zhang Yang was a little dizzy when he was said.

Catherine pouted and continued, "Of course, I'm just talking about it, I don't really know what a team is, I just like Chelsea because they're Fulham's bitter enemies. ”

Zhang Yang thought about what Catherine said, and felt that he had caught something.

"Match analysis skills? Targeted adjustments? Zhang Yang remembered it, and suddenly clenched his fist hard, "That's right!" How could I not have thought of it! He smiled excitedly and hugged Catherine excitedly, "Yes! Right! I finally got it! Thank you, Catherine, for helping me a lot! ”

Catherine felt the palm of the hand before the murder, and her face was flushed with shame, and her little heart kept beating.

When she found that Zhang Yang returned to the computer to watch the video, she was embarrassed to stay, but walked out of the room with tools and walked down the first floor. Damn it! How can a hug touch there! That awkward move...... He must have deliberately taken advantage! ”

"What's wrong?"

John asked, confused.

Catherine's anger was nowhere to vent, and she suddenly yelled, "It's okay! Go ahead and drink your Maniao! ”

John was stunned, and the drink was spilled on the floor.
