Chapter 040: The League Begins

In the gatehouse of the training base, Liu Ting saw the child again, with a little fear, looked at Liu Ting carefully, or bravely came over with a football in his arms and handed the ball to Liu Ting.

Liu Ting touched his head and squatted down to take the football, skillfully signing on it, with French and Chinese signatures at the same time, as a future star, Liu Ting has specially practiced signing.

With such a child, Liu Ting really didn't know how to talk to him, and returned the football to Luis, Liu Ting said: "Little Louie, what is your dream?" ”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Liu Ting continued: "My dream when I was a child was to become a tennis player, so I often went to practice tennis, but later a professional tennis coach told me that my left hand was injured and the strength of my arm was too small to be a tennis player, and I was very sad at that time. But very quickly, I found a new purpose, I fell in love with football, in fact I didn't have much contact with football until I was 12 years old, I just trained hard for two years before I entered La Masia, and now I am a real footballer. ”

"Really?" Luis Jr. was indeed attracted by Liu Ting's half-truths, Liu Ting did like tennis for a while, and Monaco has a tennis Monte Carlo Masters every year.

"Of course it's true, I think you can be a good team manager, if you study hard, maybe you can be a team manager in Bordeaux in the future."

Listening to Liu Ting's words, little Louis's eyes began to glow.

On January 12, 2008, the 20th round of the French Ligue 1 Bordeaux home match with Ausell started at 9 p.m. local time in France, Liu Ting started without surprise, and his partner was Cavinaghi and Berlion, at the same time, the Chinese Olympic team and the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich also started, Bordeaux's game in addition to Li Yuyang and a few other Chinese reporters, the others went to Munich, Germany to report on the Chinese Olympic game Bayern, hoping that they would not really develop into a 'big war'.

"It's the second half of the 2007/2008 Ligue 1 season between Bordeaux and Auxerre, and Bordeaux has a combination of Cavinaghi, Berrione and Liu Ting up front, which is the strongest forward combination of Bordeaux, and as long as this combination can guarantee integrity, this year's Ligue 1 title is likely to fall to Bordeaux." The French narrator is talking.

Auxerre is indeed not strong, and is now only 15th in the rankings, Bordeaux started with a big press on the attack.

"Auxerre's counterattack, Bordeaux's first attack was fruitless, Auxerre seized the opportunity to counterattack, Romanian striker Nikulai was fast, quickly burst into the box, and shot with a lob!! The ball is in!! Bordeaux were beaten back by a counter-attack just two minutes into the game, which did not bode well. "The French commentary is also very strange, this one conceded a goal at the beginning.

Liu Ting is used to it, this Bordeaux team generally has to give away a goal within 10 minutes of the opening game, really special to send a head at the beginning, and often play like this, I don't know if it's a problem with Bordeaux's defense or Blanco's offensive tactics?

The only good thing is that they often concede goals like this, the whole team is used to it, and this goal did not hit Bordeaux, and then Bordeaux still attacked aggressively.

"Bordeaux wasn't hit by the opening goal and immediately set up a counter-attack. Diarra and Alonso's one-two combination, Diarra long pass to the side, good ball!! Liu got rid of the defense and quickly inserted the ball, which was a single knife, hitting the goal!! The ball is in!! ”

Liu Ting was about to celebrate after scoring the goal, but the cheers of the whole stadium seemed to be cut off, and immediately turned into boos again, and Liu Ting turned his head to see the linesman on the sidelines holding a flag to signal offside.

'The linesman on the sidelines raised it for offside and the referee blew it for offside and we need to look at the replay to figure out if it's an offside goal.

Liu Ting knew very well that he got rid of the defenders on the same line as him after Diarra passed the ball and went up to catch the ball, how could it not be offside, so he went to negotiate with the referee, and the Bordeaux players led by captain Diarra were also explaining to the referee, but the referee would only shake his head like he had Alzheimer's.

Seeing that a good ball was blown off, Liu Ting applauded him on the side, how can he really be a referee. The referee obviously saw his applause, and squeezed through the crowd to come over with a yellow card, Liu Ting was really a little angry, and wanted to punch him on the spot, but immediately his arm was grabbed, and when he looked back, it was Miku, who immediately pulled Liu Ting away.

"There was a little bit of a skirmish on the pitch, Liu seemed to complain that his goal was blown away and he received a yellow card, in fact, we saw from the replay that the goal just now was a good goal, which is why Liu was angry."

The game restarted, Bordeaux still continued to attack, but Liu Ting was unhappy, and was blown away for no reason and received a yellow card.

'Bellion broke down the wing, crossed it, Cavinaghit!!!' Header on goal!! The ball is in!! Bordeaux equalised. ”

In the 13th minute, Cavinagh's header equalized for Bordeaux, 1:1.

'Bordeaux got a corner, it was their third corner, Miku took this corner, the spot! Kavinagi! Interfered with, back point! Planus!! The top has arrived!! Gooooooal!! The ball went in, Prannus grabbed the point at the back post, Aucererre's main focus was to defend the front post of Cavinaggi to go, and the back post was seized by Prannus to help Bordeaux overtake the score. ”

In the 40th minute, Bordeaux took advantage of a corner kick and scored a goal by Prannus to overtake the score, 2:1.

Then it was soon time to break the break, Liu Ting was thinking about himself at halftime, as if he was affected by the referee's unfair decision, although he repeatedly thought in his heart not to be disturbed by the stupid referee, he was still in poor condition on the court.

In fact, that was Liu Ting's own idea, and the rest of the team didn't think there was anything wrong with Liu Ting, and the corner kick that just played to overtake the score was made by Liu Ting, and the performance was not particularly good but not bad.

In the second half, Bordeaux continued to press the attack and wanted to win the game in one go, but Auxerre's resistance was very weak.

In the 50th minute, Cavinaghi received Miku's through ball in the penalty area and scored to make the score 3:1, and Bordeaux sealed the win.

Blanco then began to make substitutions, and Liu Ting was replaced by Brazilian defensive midfielder Fernando in the 78th minute.

Bordeaux did not give up attacking after the substitution, and in the 90th minute, Beryon used his speed to burst into the penalty area and score, and finally Bordeaux defeated Auxerre 4-1 at home, making a good start to the second half of the season.

There is not much to report on this game, and it is normal for Auxerre to lose to Bordeaux if he is not strong, so Liu Ting's yellow card for applauding the referee is also a rare highlight, and Liu Ting was surrounded by reporters in the mixed interview area on the sidelines.

Liu Ting said in front of the microphone: "When I was learning football, I was told by a friend that I don't want to be a player, to be a referee is the best, no matter how good a player scores, only the referee has the final say, no matter how beautiful the goal referee can easily kill, I just regret not listening to that friend's opinion, otherwise I can easily dominate the game." ”

After saying this, Liu Ting left, and felt much more refreshed when he said it.

The next day, the French Football Association reacted to Liu Ting's words: a one-game suspension for inappropriate remarks after the game.

This has long been expected by Liu Ting, he is not a big star, and he will definitely be punished for complaining about the referee after the game, but he is uncomfortable not saying a word.

Liu Ting can't participate in the next league, but he can participate in the next match with the Chinese Olympic team on January 16, but soon Blanco announced that Bordeaux only needs the reserve team to play in the match with the Chinese Olympic team, but Liu Ting must play, but it is likely to be a substitute.

It turned out that Bordeaux and Auxerre played Bayern on the day of the Olympic 'battle', and the result was a 7:2 massacre by Bayern, which made those bureaucrats realize the gap with the European giants, and asked Bordeaux to send reserves to play, otherwise they would be slaughtered.

This time, the training opponents of the national Olympic team are Bayern, Bordeaux, Saint-Ertiste and Lyon, and the Football Association also knows that other teams are not easy to play, so they found the French fourth-tier team Saint-Ertiste to find confidence in the national Olympic team, but the first game was slaughtered by Bayern 7:2, Bordeaux If it is still the main force, the French team that can't wait to find confidence will be beaten to no fighting spirit, so it is good to ask Bordeaux to send a reserve team.

Liu Ting knew that even the St. Ertiste National Olympic team could not win.

Soon, on January 16, the match between Bordeaux and China came to the Olympic Games, and more and more Chinese journalists gathered in Bordeaux.

Now the main people in China who know Liu Ting are fans, after all, the strength of the national football team is poor and there are many shady scenes that everyone doesn't want to watch, but now this is the national Olympic team that is related to the 08 Olympics, I believe that many people will know Liu Ting through this game.

Blanco arranged a mix of reserves and youth teams for the match against China, with the first team on the bench.
