Chapter 240: In good shape
The day before the game, tickets for this match were already hard to find. Atletico's bus arrived outside the Camp Nou stadium and was already packed with waiting crowds, two hours before the start of the game. When Wen Zhihao walked into the stadium, he found that there were already a lot of people in the stands, and half of the stands facing the middle circle of the stadium were already seated. Fans who entered the stadium early could only watch the pre-match warm-up of the two teams at most, waiting for two hours with nothing to do, but they still couldn't stop their enthusiasm.
Of course, in the eyes of most fans, Atletico Madrid is an opponent, an enemy of their re-crowning of the league title, and naturally undesirable. Especially Wen Zhihao, who beat Barcelona for the first time, has become the focus of these fans' attacks. Wen Zhihao walked into the stadium under the boos of the fans, and a lot of unpleasant discussions and ridicule could be heard behind him.
"Atletico Madrid's little cubs don't dare to look at us at all, I guess the little heart can't stand it anymore, haha!"
"Go back to Madrid, Camp Nou is not where you should be."
"Hey! Yellow-skinned monkey, haven't you been weaned yet, skinny little people, also come here to spread wild! ”
"It must be a coincidence that he was able to kill us, depending on his physique. Paulinho can knock him over with a casual bump, let alone Sergio? Sergio Busquets...... Go back, kid, football is the game of the strong! ”
Wen Zhihao didn't want to pay attention to it, after all, this was not his own territory. But the verbal attacks of these Barcelona fans bit touched his bottom line. Walking to the door of the stadium, Wen Zhihao raised a middle finger on each of the left and right hands of everyone, and then ignored the louder abuse of the fans, turned around and walked into the players' tunnel.
The media that owns the live broadcast rights are very invested in this game, and next to the commentary seat of the famous Spanish commentator Garcia, he was slightly surprised to see a lot of yellow-skinned peers. It is difficult for Europeans to distinguish between Chinese, Japanese and Koreans, just by looking at their faces, but from the sporadic conversations he heard, it was easy for him to guess that it was a media counterpart from China. After all, Chinese is not like Japanese, and when you speak, it is a strange sound of "wah-la-wah-la", and it will not be like Koreans, who will have all kinds of "Smecta" when they don't agree with each other.
The two domestic media that own the live broadcast rights of La Liga, CCTV and PPtV, representatives of online new media, both sent a strong live broadcast team to the scene to comment. 's commentary lineup is even larger. Huang Jianxiang, Su Dong and other celebrities all came to the front.
In the past, there would only be such a lineup during the national derby, and it would not be at such a large cost to shoot so many commentaries to participate in the report. But with Wen Zhihao, Atletico Madrid's appeal in China has skyrocketed, and it is almost at the same level as Real Madrid. It should be noted that Real Madrid has been working hard in the Chinese market for many years. In addition to the youth training cooperation project, Atletico Madrid has not deliberately invested in the Chinese market before.
The pre-match warm-up of both sides can attract great attention from various media. Although everyone knows that Wen Zhihao is unlikely to be nervous, but how good the state can be, and whether there is the possibility of extraordinary performance, this is the focus of everyone's attention. A fact that does not need to be bragging, but which excites all Chinese fans, is that Wen Zhihao's play can almost determine the success or failure of Atletico Madrid at critical moments, and the managers of both sides know it.
Wen Zhihao felt that he was in good shape, and after the team's unified warm-up, Wen Zhihao and Griezmann played fancy games in front of all Barcelona fans in the middle circle of the stadium. In terms of physical coordination and reaction speed, the two are comparable, and all kinds of flashes and movements also feast the eyes of the on-site commentary, and the Chinese media are quite excited, at least from the details, Wen Zhihao is in good shape.
The Catalan TV commentator adheres to a consistent stance and dismisses the performance of the two: "A cool performance like this kind of streetball is not difficult for professional players at all, and the Madridians actually run to the Camp Nou to show as a high-tech show." If Messi is on the field, these two clowns are not even qualified to lick Messi's sneakers! ”
Catalan TV commented that Messi is like a god, Wen Zhihao and Griezmann are qualified to kneel and lick Messi I don't know, it is estimated that he is definitely willing.
Wen Zhihao seemed to feel the other party's mockery, or maybe on a whim, and shouted to Griezmann: "Get out of the way!" ”
Then Wen Zhihao picked up the ball with the power of the juggling ball, and pumped his right foot towards the ball. Antoine Griezmann was startled, dodged for a moment, and then saw the ball arc in an ornamental arc towards the goal.
Griezmann subconsciously felt that Wen Zhihao didn't know how far this ball was, this was in the middle circle!
Two seconds later, the ball struck the right half at the junction of the goal and the post.
Catalan TV commented on the subconscious mocking: "Haha! Bad luck. Is this a hint from God? The Madridians were destined to be close to scoring today. ”
Griezmann encouraged: "Wen, it's already awesome, it's only a few centimetres away from scoring. ”
Wen Zhihao smiled and didn't say much, and the second kick was still in the position just now.
At this moment, the eyes of the surrounding teammates and all the commentators changed. The probability of hitting the upper corner of the goal on both sides of the goal, the junction of the crossbar and the upright is no less than winning the jackpot in the lottery, even if it is a coincidence, it can't be fulfilled twice, right? Then there is only one explanation!
Wen Zhihao did it intentionally! He tested his shooting sensation this way.
The media and commentators, who were eagerly waiting for the start of the game, suddenly found very interesting on-field tidbits, and their excitement was mobilized in advance.
He Wei said excitedly: "Have you noticed the scene just now? Wen Zhihao practiced shooting in the centre circle and hit the top right corner of the goal twice. He should be in great shape today and it looks like he wants to keep trying! ”
The third time, Wen Zhihao was slightly off when he got up, but he forcibly twisted his body ten degrees, and then struck out with one kick.
A few seconds later, the ball struck again in that spot.
Playing in the same tricky position three times, even the home team fans have their eyes on the field, although it is an opponent on the field, but now it is an entertaining personal challenge, and there are still many people secretly applauding Wen Zhihao.
“god! The third time! Garcia could barely contain his excitement, swept the impression in his head, and said even more excitedly: "Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho has a world record of four consecutive crossbar shots in the center circle, but Wen's challenge is much more difficult. ”
Although it is not easy to hit the 7.32-meter-long crossbar in the center circle, it is obviously much less difficult than Wen Zhihao's shot, and it is not an impossible task for Ronaldinho, a master of where to hit the set-piece. But Wen Zhihao's precise and repeated shot at the same point is probably not guaranteed even by a set-piece master like Juninho.
However, no one understands that the reason why Wen Zhihao often makes world waves in the game is that he forces himself to practice 20 such shots every day to hone his crosshairs.
With the first three impromptu performances, no one doubted that Wen Zhihao was in good shape today, but this scene appeared at the moment when the game was approaching, and it was destined to be happy and sad.
