"Mr. Darochy! Mr. Darochy! ”

Sky Sports chief CEO Jeremy Darroch looked up and looked at his panting subordinates with a frown.

"Everton and Arsenal ratings, setting new highs!" Before he could reprimand, the next sentence from his subordinate made Daroch jump up and ask with a shocked face: "How much?" ”

"It's mainly the ratings in Asia, preliminary statistics, there are 200 million people watching, and the data is still rising, and the absolute part comes from the Chinese region."

Daroch sat back in his chair and immediately turned on the live webcast channel of Sky Sports on his computer, clicked on the match between Everton and Arsenal, and saw Tan Xibi appear on the 3D formation map.

"Is this Japanese or Korean? No, the viewership is mainly from China, and there can't be more than 200 million Koreans and Japan. Could it be that this player is Chinese? As Daroch looked at the picture, his mind raced through his mind.

When the commentary from the computer came to his ears, Daroch confirmed that the young-looking teenager was Chinese, and because of his start, the game had high overseas ratings, far better than all of Sky Sports' games.

Although the game has not yet started, although I don't know why this Chinese named Xibi Tan appeared at the Arsenal club and played in this game, Darochy, who has a sensitive sense of business, has a faint feeling in his heart that this Chinese player is likely to save the ratings that have been declining in recent years.

Because behind him, there is the world's most populous market, the world's second economy, and many financial fathers......

Tan Xibi didn't know that he was being targeted by the boss of Sky Sports, at this moment, he was excitedly gearing up on the court, even if the cold wind was blowing and the light rain was drenching, Tan Xibi only felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, and he couldn't wait for the referee to blow the whistle and then run.

It's 1.29pm UK time and 8.29pm Chinese time, and as long as it's a Chinese fan, everyone's computer and mobile phone are playing the game between Everton and Arsenal.

They are not all Arsenal fans, they are just for the pride of Chinese football, the only one who plays in the five major leagues, or plays for the Premier League giants Tan Xibi.

In the stands of Goodison Park, there were several people who also came for Tan Xibi.

Since the end of their joint visit, Liu Chuanfeng, a resident reporter of "Huaguo Sports Circle" in London, and Tai Shanshi, a special reporter of the master of football, have been assigned by the headquarters as Tan Xibi's personal reporter, and must report on Tan Xibi's every move in England as soon as possible.

Fabian Gotze had already come to the UK yesterday, and this time he came to the scene, in addition to watching Tan Xibi's performance, but also to meet him and become his agent.

The referee on duty, Craig Posen, blew the opening whistle, and the Everton players rushed towards the Arsenal position who kicked off first, trying to use ferocious pressing to win the ball.

Against a menacing Everton player, the Gunners used their skillful short passing skills to defuse the opposition's siege, and when the ball was passed back to the feet of Gunners goalkeeper Petr Cech, instead of taking the ball and kicking it wide, Cech received the ball and passed it directly with the inside of his left foot before Calvot Calvert-Lewin got close.

"Hey, this Chinese retreated so deeply." Everton coach Ronald Koeman's heart moved, Cech in the case of dealing with high pressure and pressing, basically kicked the ball to the front, after all, the Czech is not Manuel Neuer, who is good at handling the ball at his feet and passing skills are no less than the front field players "ball" type goalkeeper, this time he did not imagine the big kick off, but a short pass to the retreating teammates, a little unexpected.

It's no wonder that most people watch the ball with their eyes and it is difficult to notice the movement of the players on both sides in the field of vision, so it is difficult to detect the difference between the pass just now.

But for seasoned insiders, Cech's handling of the ball meant that Arsenal were no longer as easily losing possession as they were in the panic of the previous position, because after Cech passed the ball to a team-mate who retreated to receive it, this teammate's strategic pass not only defused Everton's high pressing, but also took advantage of the forward pressure of the opponent's formation to launch a counter-attack on the wing.

"No. 28 quickly transferred the ball to No. 18, No. 18 passed to No. 31 Kolasinac in the middle line position on the side, Kolasinac ran wildly on the side with the ball, Kolasinac crossed the ball low, Arsenal No. 9 received the ball, passed back with his heel, No. 8 appeared in an unmarked position, shot, Pickford made a beautiful save! Arsenal's corner. In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, David Jones shouted excitedly.

"It's so fast, lightning speed on the counter-attack, it's a flowing pass, it's a mercury run, why do I have a familiar feeling?" Guest commentator Graeme Souness exclaimed to Thierry Henry on the sidelines with a look of shock after Arsenal's counter-attack.

Henry also looked shocked, the beautiful counterattack launched by Arsenal just now seemed familiar.

"Cut! This guy reacts too fast! In the coach's seat, Steve Boulder took a sip and said with a look of regret.

Arsène Wenger smiled, as if he had anticipated what was happening in front of him.

It's an attacking routine that has been around since training, with Aaron Ramsey being a dangerous step forward, and Arsenal would have had it not been for Jordan Pickford's quick response.

The sound of the aftermath of the catastrophe came from the stands, and the Everton fans could feel the cold sweat coming out of their backs, Liu Chuanfeng and Taishan Shi, who were bystanders, looked at each other with shocked faces, and shouted in unison: "Highbury!" ”

Launching a counter-attack from the back, a series of consistent, non-stop passes, and active and intelligent movements, this wave of counter-attacks is not the same attacking art that Arsenal have been fascinated by at Highbury Stadium in the last decade?

And the single-handedly director who made gun fans dream of returning to Highbury was the inconspicuous Tan Xibi.

Returning to the scene before the counter-attack, Tan Xibi ran to the left side of the penalty line, which happened to be in the unoccupied position between Nacho Monreal and Per Mertesacker, and also happened to be in the path of Cech's ball, so that he could pass the ball to the feet of Tan Xibi who retreated without rushing to the big ball.

Tan Xibi received the ball, which was his first touch after coming on the field, and then, without stopping, passed the ball to Monreal on the left, which was his one-kick pass.

No one could have imagined that this mediocre pass would not only turn Arsenal's opening passivity around, but also orchestrate a threatening counter-attack.

It takes a lot of tactical skill to find out, starting with Tan Xibi's pass, it only took four passes and less than 10 seconds to penetrate Everton's right side and create a must-score opportunity.

Wenger looked at Tan Xibi, who was in high spirits, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
