At noon on March 18, 2017, we played Arsenal at the Hawthorn Stadium. www.biquge.info In a corner, I was in front of the goalkeeper as usual, limiting his movement and blocking his vision. It had been safe before, but this time, an accident happened. The corner kick came out, and I was blocking the Chinese goalkeeper, when suddenly my chrysanthemum was stabbed, and the force was very strong, and I sat directly on the ground in pain. I was going to appeal to Mr. Referee, but the goalkeeper jumped high in front of my eyes, very high, like flying, and then with one hand, he flew the racket, just like I saw an NBA player on TV jumping up and blocking. In an instant, I forgot about the pain of the chrysanthemum, and I kept thinking in my mind, who is he? Did he play basketball before?

Later, I retired, and on TV, in newspapers, on the Internet, I learned about him.

The first person in Chinese football, the greatest goalkeeper of this century who has won countless honors such as the Premier League Golden Glove Award, the European Golden Ball Award, the IFFHS World Goalkeeper of the Year, and the World Footballer.

- From the autobiography of former Scotland international and former West Bromwich Albion captain Darren Fletcher.

Toni Pulis stood on the sidelines, his brow furrowed, and as modern football becomes more physically demanding, the trend towards goalkeepers is getting taller, especially in the Premier League, where physical confrontation is fierce.

However, the official height is only 182 cm (in fact, 183 cm, the official player information is generally updated during the summer training camp every year, and the player will be updated during the physical examination) Zhang Zhetian not only showed amazing bounce in this corner kick defense, but also showed that he was not weaker than the opponent in the fierce physical collision with Craig Dawson, who is 188 cm tall, in the air.

Pulis felt 100,000 alpacas galloping past his chest, which is not scientific!

If this not tall Chinese is not afraid of high-altitude bombing, then we will kick a fart!

Perhaps it was Zhang Zhetian's strong air defense ability when defending corners that infected his teammates, and then the Arsenal players strengthened the strength and hardness of the defense, shook off the fear of yellow cards, and fought with West Brom "normally" without distraction.

As for the matter of Fletcher being **, the party just complained to the referee Neil Swobrick, but the other party was defeated in front of the other party's special expression of teasing me, and no one saw it, so the matter was over.

(Voiceover: Lao Tzu is so secretive, it's strange that someone found out.) ）

In the 15th minute, Francis Coquelin was fouled in a scramble, and Swobrick ignored the complaints of the West Brom players and awarded the home side a set-piece in front of the goal, without showing Coquelin a yellow card.

Pulis ran to the fourth official in dissatisfaction and questioned Swobrick's decision just now, Arsène Wenger saw this, and also ran over to question Pulis trying to influence the referee.

This time, almost two-thirds of West Bromwich Albion's tall players rushed into the box, and Zhang Zhetian shouted a loud reminder to his teammates to keep an eye on people, and looked at Fletcher who was about to walk in front of him, and the corners of his mouth appeared with an intriguing smile.

Fletcher saw it in his eyes, suddenly felt the chrysanthemum tighten, his footsteps stopped, thought about it, and decided not to stop it.

Chrysanthemum pain once is enough, do it again, how to squat in the toilet in the future?

Nasser Chadley took a set-piece and the players in the box pushed each other while staring at the flight path of the ball in the air towards the predicted landing point.

"I'm going to have this ball!" Palm Zhetian shouted, jumped high, and firmly grasped the ball with both palms.

In the dumbfounded eyes of the West Brom players, Zhang Zhetian grabbed the ball with one hand, pointed to the top with one hand, and then pointed to the bottom, and said domineeringly: "Whether it is the sky or the ground, on my territory, only I can call the shots!" ”

"Damn the Chinese!" Pulis took off his hat and threw it the ground.

Let a goalkeeper who is only 1.8 meters tall dominate the air with super bounce power twice in a row, which is undoubtedly a great shame for West Brom in the new sky city, and the team's morale will be a huge blow.

How much morale affects a team is obvious to everyone.

A team with no morale, even if everyone in the team is the strongest, it is difficult to compete against a team composed of ordinary people who are both united and morale-rising.

What is morale?

Morale is a kind of mental strength, and the role of morale is not seen in ordinary times, but when it comes to adversity, it is the time to test the morale of the team.

The importance of a team's morale comes to light when times of adversity.

In the team, everyone is eager to surpass their opponents and even unite to win.

In the face of adversity, everyone has such a mentality, and the morale of the team will be very high, overcome adversity, and achieve the ultimate victory.

The morale of a team can determine the direction of a team, and it can also determine the fate of this team, look at the Portuguese team in the European Championship final last summer, and then look at the Barcelona team that staged a shocking comeback not long ago.

Napoleon in the West said that a flock of sheep led by a lion can defeat a flock of lions led by a sheep.

Although it is somewhat absolute, there is some truth to it.

Every year in February and March, Arsenal drop the chain in front of the middle and bottom teams, which has become a negative lesson for expert journalists and fans alike, and the reason is that it is well known that the Gunners have lost their former blood and fighting spirit, and lack a hard-nosed captain like Tony Adams and Patrick Vieira.

Because the Arsenal players were burdened with yellow cards soon after the opening because of improper behavior, they were sent off for fear of committing another foul and getting a card, which led to a heavy defeat for the team.

In the previous defensive corner, if it wasn't for Zhang Zhetian who took the first step to hit the ball, Dawson's header cruising into the penalty area would have a good chance of breaking the goal.

Once West Brom equalised, it would boost their morale, and even with three heads and six arms, Zhang Zhetian could not stop the opponent's high-altitude bombardment for more than an hour remaining.

What could be more morale-boosting than proving that the opponent's best style of play is ineffective in front of this god-like goalkeeper teammate?

Two air strikes that disrupted the Premier League's top team calmed the hearts of his teammates.

As long as we don't cheat, he won't concede the ball!

Looking at the game that Zhang Zhetian started, except for the goal that was conceded because the ball touched Granit Xhaka's thigh and changed direction, in the face of the strong Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Liverpool, Zhang Zhetian did not concede a single goal.

How is it not reassuring to have such a teammate behind you?

Arsene Wenger and assistant coach Steve Boulder smiled at each other, and everything was silent.

Marcelo Lippi looked at Michelangelo Lampra, who smiled and nodded, then at Massimiliano Maddaloni and Narciso Pezzotti and saw the smile on their faces as the look of shock faded, and Lippi smiled too.

Palm, what a natural leader, Lippi said secretly.

In the corner of the hawthorn stadium, there is a bald middle-aged man wearing sunglasses and a thick scarf around his neck, which can be seen from the color and text of the scarf, which is a Manchester City scarf.

"Palm, you really are a natural captain!"
