Chapter 553: The verdict of the anti-gambling and anti-crime case was announced
After playing the group match against the Qatar Olympic team, Lu Wenbin immediately flew to London, England, to participate in the 2012 Laureus Sports Awards ceremony.
On the evening of February 6, local time, the 2012 Laureus Sports Awards ceremony was held in the Central Hall of Westminster, London.
Although Lu Wenbin's opponent Djokovic won three Grand Slams and five Masters titles last year, Lu Wenbin's treble at Inter Milan, as well as the perverted records of 10 goals in a single game, 5 goals in 8 minutes, and 144 goals a year are even more incredible.
Therefore, the most high-profile Best Male Athlete Award was awarded to Lu Wenbin. Following the FIFA Golden Globe Award, Lu Wenbin also won the best award at the Laureus Sports Award for two consecutive years.
After attending the Laureus Awards ceremony, Lu Wenbin and his girlfriend Kate returned to Spain the next day.
On the evening of February 8, the second leg of the semifinals of the 2011/2012 Spanish Copa del Rey was played at the Bernabeu.
In the absence of Lu Wenbin, Real Madrid still defeated Valencia with a score of 3-0 and won the game.
Because the game went well, Lu Wenbin was not sent on by Mourinho until the end of the game.
Real Madrid defeated Valencia 6-1 in the first leg, 3-0 at home in the second leg and 9-1 on aggregate over the two legs to advance to the 2011/2012 Copa del Rey final.
Real Madrid's opponent in the final was Athletic Bilbao, who had already won the other semi-final that ended the previous day.
Athletic Bilbao are currently in the middle of the La Liga table and are not strong on paper.
However, Athletic Bilbao, who are made up of players of pure Basque descent, can be very tenacious in some games, making it very difficult for opponents.
The final outcome of this final cannot be predicted in advance.
Everyone can only judge that if Lu Wenbin plays, then Real Madrid will win the championship nine out of nine. If Lu Wenbin doesn't play, the outcome will be unpredictable.
After a few days of rest, on February 13, in the 23rd round of La Liga, Real Madrid hosted Levante.
Levante is the dark horse of La Liga this season, ranking fourth in the standings, only behind Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia, and pressing Atletico Madrid, Athletic Bilbao, Sevilla and other strong teams under him.
After the start of the game, Levante really performed unusually. Halfway through the season, we are still fourth in the standings.
In the 13th minute, Real Madrid opened the scoring through Lu Wenbin and Higuain, but Levante equalised just minutes later.
In the 29th minute, Lu Wenbin hit a free kick and expanded the score for Real Madrid. But it didn't take long for Levante to score another goal with a quick counter-attack to equalize.
However, Levante only scored these two goals.
Before the end of the first half, Lu Wenbin scored a goal-grabbing shot in the forbidden area to complete the brace.
In the second half, Lu Wenbin scored the third goal through a counterattack and a long-distance run to complete the hat trick.
Before the end, Lu Wenbin was substituted, but Ronaldo scored a beautiful free-kick in the final stoppage time to help Real Madrid lock the score at 5-2.
In the first half, Levante still played well, but because the gap in strength was too large, he lost to Real Madrid 2-5 in the end.
If it weren't for Lu Wenbin's hat-trick, Levante would have been able to draw with Real Madrid.
This is the point of Real Madrid's metamorphosis now: the already terrifying strength, coupled with a goal machine and master playmaker Lu Wenbin, has made Real Madrid a rare defeat in La Liga, and the unbeaten run has lasted to 27 games.
After playing the league against Levante, the next league game is five days away.
As a result, Mourinho gave his players a day off and then came back to training.
On February 18, 2012, before the 24th round of La Liga, a major event occurred in Chinese football: the verdict of China's anti-gambling and anti-crime case that lasted for more than two years was finally announced.
Lu Wenbin has also been waiting in front of the computer, learning about the latest situation through familiar reporters.
In several previous interviews with Chinese journalists, Lu Wenbin expressed his hope that the trial would be severe and severe.
At Lu Wenbin's level, even the Chinese Football Association can no longer threaten him.
Therefore, Lu Wenbin is not afraid of offending these football associations, clubs, and player suspects.
Last month, a national leader even issued a special instruction on the matter, demanding that not a bad person be spared, nor should a good person be wronged.
Don't be afraid of losing face, don't be afraid of showing ugliness, we must completely clean up the domestic football atmosphere and create favorable conditions for the healthy development of Chinese football.
The leaders' instructions and the pressure of public opinion headed by Lu Wenbin determined the tone of the trial's severity and severity.
In Lu Wenbin's expectations, the results of the trial kept coming:
Xie Yalong, the former chairman of the Football Association, was sentenced to 25 years in prison and banned for life for taking bribes;
Former Football Association Chairman Nan Yong was sentenced to 25 years in prison and banned for life for taking bribes;
Yang Yimin, former director of the Foot Management Center of the General Administration of Sports, was sentenced to 25 years in prison and banned for life for taking bribes......
More than a dozen former Football Association officials, General Administration of Sports officials, players, referees, club staff, etc., were sentenced to a maximum of 25 years in prison, and the others were also sentenced severely, and the least was also sentenced to a full 5 years.
In addition, everyone is banned from the field of football for life. (The plot is modified to be much heavier than the real trial.) )
Seeing the result of the trial, Lu Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief.
He hopes that the result of this trial can effectively deter the current Chinese football practitioners, so that everyone can spend their minds on how to improve the level of the league and the level of competition, instead of spending on other crooked ways.
As long as there is a good football atmosphere, the members of the national team work hard and work hard, one session does not work for the next session, and the next session does not work for the next session, Lu Wenbin will always lead Chinese football to achieve a good result in the World Cup.
As Lu Wenbin thought, at the same time that he received the results of the trial, the Chinese media also announced all the trial results, and the people of the whole country knew about them.
Such a heavy verdict shocked China and even the world football world.
FIFA immediately issued an article praising the determination of the Chinese warrior to break his wrist, pulling out so many moths and giving a heavy sentence, hoping that Chinese football will improve and improve after this anti-gambling and anti-crime trial, and make a breakthrough under the leadership of Lu Wenbin.
As for the harsh and severe trial that some people feared, the lifetime ban of all people would affect FIFA's perception of Chinese football, but in fact, it did not happen.
Now FIFA really only sees Lu Wenbin, and how to purge and judge Chinese football has nothing to do with them.
As long as Lu Wenbin is here, and the influence of football and FIFA in China is increasing, they don't care about the rest!
