Weigongcun Bar, Beijing, China.

A private room with an area of about 50 square meters, in a row of seats, two men and four women sit, and some seats are empty, but on the table of these places, there are fruit plates and drinks, and it is obvious that no one has arrived.

Opposite them, there hangs a curtain, which is so large in size that it feels like watching a movie.

This is a match shown on a screen with the highest definition projector, and the starting lineup is displayed on the screen.

From the red, white and sky blue jerseys worn by the players on both sides, it is clear that this is tonight's Premier League battle against Manchester City, Arsenal at home.

Suddenly, the door of the private room opened, and a group of people entered, all men, in addition to Chinese, but also foreigners.

Seeing these people come in, two men and five women stood up one after another, and one of them, a handsome middle-aged man, walked up to the young man in a green coat, nodded at the person behind him, and then smiled at the man, "Why did you come so late, Dabao." ”

The man named Dabao scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Brother Hu, as soon as the game is over, we will rush over immediately, but there is a traffic jam on the road." ”

A handsome young man behind the middle-aged man smiled: "It's okay, Beijing is like this, sit down, the competition will start soon." ”

The crowd looked at each other, sat down, and looked at the huge curtain.

If there are people who know them, they will definitely faint with excitement when they see them together.

Because they are all stars, stars of showbiz and football.

The two men and four women who arrived first were Hu Ji, Lu Ji, Jiang Shuying, Gu Lina, Lai Yumeng, and Song Zuer.

Wearing a green jacket and a blue and white jacket, they are the players of Beijing Zhongbo Guoan and Shanghai Greenland Shenhua, they are former national team goalkeeper Yang Zhiri, current international players, Yu Dabao and Zhang Xiwei, who fought side by side with Zhang Zhetian not long ago, U23 player Tang Yansi, who returned from Portugal in March to join Beijing, Brazilian international Renato Augusto, Turkish international Burak Yilmaz, former Uruguay international and Shanghai coach Gustavo Poyet, former Argentina international Carlos Tevez, Colombian midfielder Freddy Guarín, and Cao Yunjie, who was selected for the national team but did not have the opportunity to play.

Fortunately, this private room is large, otherwise it would not be possible to squeeze so many people.

How did they get together?

Hu Ji, who hasn't filmed much for a year, originally planned to go to the United States in March to study English to prepare for further training as a director, but he didn't expect it to be delayed until now because of visa issues.

This time I came to Beijing, I was invited by Lu Zheng, who participated in the promotion of the TV series in Beijing, saying that a group of friends would gather to watch the football tonight, Hu Ji thought that there was nothing to do, and he would only go to the United States in a few days, and there was a game of Zhang Zhetian tonight, so he readily agreed.

Jiang Shuying came to Beijing to participate in the promotional activities of the third season of Flowers and Youth, and it happened that the other three female guests were all in Beijing, so they were asked out by Lu.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that tonight was a competition for Zhang Zhetian, Lu Shu wouldn't have been able to ask four beauties to go to the bar at night.

Beijing has a Chinese Super League game tonight, and after 90 minutes of fierce battle between Jinglu and a pair of bitter enemies, with Yilmaz's brace, Beijing beat Shanghai 2-1 again, extending the unbeaten record against Shanghai at home.

It was Cao Yunjie who scored for Shanghai who was present today.

These 10 people were invited by Lu Zheng and rushed over after the game, not because of chasing stars, but because of Zhang Zhetian, the newly rising talented goalkeeper who hit the throne of Son Xingmin's first person in Asian football.

Jiang Shuying looked at Lai Yumeng and Song Zuer intently on the screen, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

……

Emirates Stadium, London, United Kingdom.

After Andre Marriner blew the kick-off whistle, it was Manchester City who came from afar to kick off first.

As soon as the kick-off, the Gunners rushed up and rushed towards the Manchester City players with the ball, and fans who knew a little bit about football tactics knew at a glance that this was a popular high-pressing tactic in recent years.

As if anticipating Arsenal's opening game, the City players rushed back to goalkeeper Vilfredo Caballero.

Seeing Danny Welbeck rushing towards Caballero at the front, retreating to the sides of the penalty area and at the top of the box arc to receive the goalkeeper's short pass, Jesús Navas, John Stones, and Nicolas Otamendi were respectively pressed by the Arsenal players, and Caballero, who lost the contact point, had to kick wide, Josep Guardiola looked at Arsène Wenger who was calm on the Arsenal bench again.

Mr. Arsene Wenger, are you trying to steal the start?

Although Arsenal will also use high pressing tactics, it will not be as thorough as Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and their own Barcelona and Bayern Munich, basically as long as the ball is at the feet of the goalkeeper, Arsenal will give up continuing to press the ball carrier and receiver in the attacking third.

This time Arsenal seems to be a little different, in the past, when pressing, it was always Alex Sanchez who grabbed alone, and every time he failed to rob, he would express dissatisfaction with his teammates who did not cooperate with him to grab together, this time there was no need for Sanchez to wave and shout, while the teammates in the front field were pressing several points in the backfield of Manchester City, the teammates behind him also pressed forward, keeping a tight distance between each other.

As if not expecting Arsenal to be resolute in their high pressing tactics to the end, Caballero hurriedly kicked the ball forward, but due to lack of power, the ball fell into the centre circle, and Scottran Mustafi pressed Sergio Aguero to the Gunners captain Laurent Koscielny on the left.

Pep Guardiola's side will use high pressing, and after losing possession, City immediately pressed for Arsenal, and before Aguero could get up, Koscielny passed the ball back to the boss at the arc of the box.

Seeing Zhang Zhetian receiving the ball so far from the goal, Aguero rushed towards him, and Guardiola remembered what the Chinese talented teenager said to him when he saw him in the players' tunnel: "Josep, today's game will be very interesting, you must observe carefully." After speaking, there was a mysterious smile on the corner of his mouth.

Interesting?

Could it be that there is something to watch about Mr Arsene Wenger's 2-5-3 formation?

Guardiola hurriedly set his eyes on his own pitch, and at first glance, his pupils shrank slightly.

When the ball landed at the feet of Zhang Zhetian, the 10 Arsenal players on the pitch immediately made a strange off-ball run.
