The mixed interview area is the area where reporters interview athletes for the first time after the race. The mixed zone is located in a designated area next to the competition venue, where journalists from television stations, print media and other media are allowed to interview athletes.

For journalists in Europe, the post-match mixed interview area is a place to chat with players they know well.

After each game, the manager attends a press conference and gives interviews to journalists about the game.

The content of the press conference was broadcast live on television, so there were no secrets at the time of the press conference.

This is a very different point in the hybrid interview area. This area connects the pitch to the stadium bus, and after the game, the players take a shower and get on the bus.

So, theoretically, every player has to go through the mixed mining area after the game.

In the hybrid interview area, reporters can call out the players they wish to interview to ask questions, so this kind of interview is more targeted and personal.

It is often seen that the media is divided into several camps, often one or several reporters surrounding a player, and everyone is fighting on their own.

"Wall, congratulations on winning the Player of the Match award on your debut." Receiving the yellow trophy representing the Premier League's best player on the spot award from the FA staff, Tan Xibi stood in front of the background board of the mixed mining area, holding the trophy with a smile and taking a photo with the staff, and then faced the "torture" of a group of reporters with guns and cannons in front of him.

"Wall, how does it feel to play in the Premier League for the first time?" Guardian veteran reporter Amy Lawrence asked.

"Of course...... Great. Tan Xibi paused, then winked playfully and replied with a smile.

Daily Mirror chief reporter John Krauss asked: "Why don't you take off your clothes at the end of the game?" Don't you regret getting a yellow card for nothing? ”

After scoring his first Premier League goal and becoming the third Chinese player to score in the Premier League, Tan Xibi made a surprising but somewhat unexpected move before he was ready to blow the final whistle after the referee on duty, Craig Posen.

Tan Xibi was stunned for a moment after scoring the goal, then shook off his teammates who stepped forward to hug him, and ran all the way to Arsène Wenger, who left his seat and smiled and clenched his fists in celebration, took off his jersey, pointed to the slogan on his underwear, and shouted: "Happy birthday, boss!" ”

Wenger thought that Tan Xibi ran towards him after scoring a goal to "beg for a hug", but he didn't expect to take off his clothes, and his face changed at first, but when he saw the slogan on his underwear and heard his shouting, the 68-year-old professor turned 68 today felt warm in his heart and felt that his eyes were a little moist.

“Boss，Happy birthday to you！”

Under the text, there is a birthday cake picture, but the color is black and white, and on the cake, there are 68 Arabic numerals.

It seems that Tan Xibi has put a lot of thought into printing these on his underwear.

This scene was naturally transmitted by the camera to the eyes of the audience watching the game, including the people at the scene.

Of course, you will also see Posen running over with an embarrassed face and showing a yellow card to Tan Xibi, Tan Xibi passed back the jersey while making an indifferent expression, which caused everyone to be happy.

Wenger also shook his head and smiled bitterly, although Tan Xibi was well-intentioned, but it was too worthless to get the Topaz card before the end, couldn't he wait until the game was over to take it off?

"I was going to run in front of the boss and undress after I won, but the plan couldn't keep up with the change, I didn't know I could score." Tan Xibi spread out his hands that were not holding the trophy with an innocent face.

The corners of Klaus's mouth twitched, do you mean that you can undress when you score a goal?

"It's just a yellow card, it's not a big deal," Tan Xibi raised his hand in front of his face and waved it like a fly, and said with a smile, "Today is the boss's birthday, and winning the ball is the best birthday gift for the boss." Everything else is trifle. ”

Is this kid Wenger's brainless fan? Klaus said darkly.

The official website reporter asked: "I won the best on my debut, and I also contributed a goal and an assist, so I can adapt to the Premier League so quickly, can I tell you, what is the reason?" ”

Tan Xibi didn't answer immediately, but pondered for a moment, and then said, "I'm tired. ”

The reporters were confused, what does "I'm tired" mean?

The reporters looked at Tan Xibi's face and found that there was a tired look on his childish face.

Tan continued: "The pace of the Premier League is fast-paced, the physical confrontation is fierce, and you need to give your best to do better. It's a completely different platform from Portugal and the Champions League, but with my experience of Portugal and the Champions League, I can face the competition in the Premier League very well. It took a bit of a process to fully adapt to the Premier League's style of play, and I wasn't good enough, because the goals I conceded were the result of my mistakes. I'm going to keep working hard and I'll do better in the next game." ”

The mixed interview area does not need to deal with every reporter, otherwise an hour is not enough, so Tan Xibi was about to leave after finishing the interview with the official reporter, when he suddenly saw two acquaintances come forward.

Tan Xibi naturally knew these two people, and had done an exclusive interview with them at the Kearney training base.

Liu Chuanfeng and Taishan Shi came down from the stands, and finally squeezed to the front, seeing that Tan Xibi was leaving, Liu Chuanfeng hurriedly said: "Tan Xibi, can you ask a question?" ”

I still have to give my own face, Tan Xibi said: "Just the last question, let's talk about it." ”

Liu Chuanfeng looked at Taishan Stone, Taishan Stone nodded at him, Liu Chuanfeng said: "Because of the schedule conflict, you did not participate in the U19 Asian Youth Championship Qualifiers, will you participate in the qualifying tournament next year?" There is also the U23 Asian Cup. ”

"When are these games played?"

"The Asian Youth Championships are in October and November next year. The U23 Asian Cup will be hosted by our country and will be held in January next year. ”

Tan Xibi replied lightly with two words: "Don't go." ”

Liu Chuanfeng was stunned, Taishan Shi frowned on the side, and said unhappily: "How can you refuse the national team?" Don't you want to fight for your country? ”

Tan Xibi frowned slightly, glanced at Taishan Shi, and said coldly: "First, there is a conflict between the game time and the league, I am the main force of the team, so I naturally have to focus on the team." Second, it's just a youth team game, I'm not interested. Unless the game is played during a league break. Thirdly, my level is very low, I don't deserve the national team, and when I play for a few years, my level reaches the national team standard, and then I will talk about it. ”

After speaking, he ignored the messy two people in the wind and left the mixed mining area.

The first reason is fine, it is not an international break, and the players can completely ignore the Football Association's call-up, which depends on the player's own will.

The second one, I'm not interested in the youth team competition, I mix well in Europe, my vision is high, and I can't look down on international youth events in Asia.

But the third one, you said that your level is low, what the hell is teasing me, okay? If you are at a low level, will Arsenal not hesitate to bring you in with special talent clauses in the non-transfer period? You know, the new young players will start to adapt from the Arsenal Under-18 team, like you go straight into the first team, and you will also start in this game, such a player is of low quality? Isn't the national football team, which is not looked down upon by a group of foreign giants and strong teams, lower than you?

You are so, just say it directly, all the national football teams are spicy chicken, okay?

Liu Chuanfeng and Taishan Shi looked at Tan Xibi's back with resentment, what they didn't expect was that this post-match interview would leave a bad impression on Tan Xibi.

U19？ U23？ Hehe, Lao Tzu won't learn from Zhang Yu to twist those stupid hats to do things that destroy his future, Lao Tzu's goal is to become famous and make a lot of money!

Tan Xibi couldn't stop sneering in his heart, he didn't have a patriotic heart, but he never had a good impression of the Chinese Football Association, these bureaucrats would not think about the interests of the players, they only thought about their own political achievements, and sacrificed the interests of the players to pay for their political achievements.

As for FIFA's rule that the call-up of the national team cannot be refused, it is for the senior team, and he Tan Xibi has a way to deal with it.

"Wall, someone is looking for you." A staff member of the Arsenal club said to Tan Xibi at the door of the dressing room.
