After the restart, the Chinese launched their counter-attack, while the Englishman cooperated well to recycle the defence.

The singing of "Serving the Country with Loyalty" will sound every once in a while, especially when the Chinese team can't open the situation, this is more effective than the national anthem.

Li Yongle originally organized the attack in the back, he made a feint to pass the ball and then suddenly dribbled forward, all the way to the top of the arc, and then took advantage of the opponent's letting go of the player before he came up to block a long shot!

His signature bounce shot was pounced on by Robinson, but Rio Ferdinand reacted quickly and kicked the ball away.

"Defensive focus! Concentrated! Leo slapped his hands and shouted loudly after the siege was cleared. Why didn't anyone go up to defend him just now?! ”

The Chinese team's throw-in, the left one was sent by Xiang Tao. He wrapped the ball around his jersey and wiped it, then lifted it above his head and took a few steps back to pull out the run. As soon as you look at this stance, you know that he is going to throw the throw-in directly into the box.

A good throw-in is more dangerous than a corner, because it is better to have the ball in hand than in the foot.

Xiang Tao is such a person, his throw-in is as accurate as a grenade.

England know his characteristics, so they focus on defending in the penalty area, which is one of the only opportunities for the Chinese team to directly enter their penalty area, and it must not be taken lightly.

Xiang Tao started to run, and just when everyone thought he would throw the football directly to Zhang Jun in the penalty area, he threw the football to Kru who came up to answer!

Crewe received the ball and turned around, and none of the England players came up to defend. He also unceremoniously burst into the box with the ball.

England's defence is really tight, but it also depends on which team they play against. In the 2002 World Cup against Argentina in South Korea and Japan, they were successful defensively, but they lost the game against Brazil. It was because Argentina at that time did not have Riquelme, while Brazil had Ronaldinho.

Now the Chinese team has no less than the above two Krewe Li. So England's ground defense is not worth a penny in the eyes of Crewe. He can come and go as freely as he wants, and there is nothing he can't do.

England right-back Glenn Johnson, who defended on the right flank, stepped forward to defend, but let Crewe easily shake off!

"He's in the box! Look, two England players come to defend at the same time, what a face! The narrator shouted.

Two people to defend Crewe means that the other people are not so closely marked. Crewe took advantage of the lack of a tie between Leo and Frank Lampard. Passed the football out of between them.

Wu Shangshan, who was unmarked, appeared where he should have appeared, and then slammed his foot on the door!

Robinson pounced on the ball, but he didn't touch it, and in a burst of exclamations, Wu Shangshan shot the ball away.

He held his head in remorse and watched as the ball ended up in the stands behind the goal.

"It's dangerous! Oh Sang-sun missed a great opportunity! Crewe's breakthrough was beautiful. On the right, on the left, England's defenders simply couldn't do anything with him. The forbidden area in England is like his own backyard, he can come and go whenever he wants, and no one can stop him! ”

"After conceding the goal, the Chinese team attacked more and more ferociously. How long can England defend like this? ”

※※※

Ten minutes after England's goal, the clock was already 35 minutes into the first half, a little over 10 minutes to go. England are still tight, and the Chinese team can only rely on Crewe's forced breakthrough except for long-range shots, and they have not scored so far.

The commentator once questioned whether England's passive tactics could hold back the Chinese team's indiscriminate bombardment, and you must know that the offensive strength of the Chinese team in this cup can be compared with the Brazilian team.

However, judging from the current situation, they have really succeeded in defending the Chinese team's attacks again and again.

Crewe forced his way through again and was about to get close to goal when he was tripped by Steven Gerrard. "Yellow card! Yellow! The Chinese fans shouted. Although I know that the referee doesn't understand at all. But they are trying to use this shouting to create psychological pressure on Gerrard, who is fouling.

Gerrard was explaining to the referee that the referee did not play a card, but only gave him a few verbal warnings.

Frank Lampard on one side stepped forward to pull Crouse, who had fallen to the ground, and patted him on the head in a friendly manner. Now that England are ahead, Lampard is in a good mood.

For people who trip up, pull down, or push themselves to the ground. Crewe has seen a lot of things, and he doesn't have any emotional fluctuations, just stand up, step aside, and let Zhang Jun kick this free kick.

Zhang Jun, Yang Pan and Xiang Tao all stood in front of the ball, which was about 20 meters away from the goal. Yang Pan and Xiang Tao's free kick styles are very similar, both of them are of the power type, while Zhang Jun is the skill type.

However, everyone also remembers the free kick scored by Yang Pan in the last World Cup, when the Chinese team and Ukraine were in the middle of a point, Zhang Jun skillfully assisted Yang Pan.

Therefore, England did not dare to slack off, they discharged as many as seven people to block the free kick, Robinson nervously and loudly commanded the wall to stand in the back, try to block the near corner, so that the football has an angle to fly from that side, and he stayed in the middle of the goal, so that he could arrive in the fastest time whether it was playing near or far corner.

Zhang Jun stood on the right side of the ball, while Yang Pan stood on the right side of the ball, and did not open the running distance, it seemed that the ball would not be Yang Pan's penalty, Xiang Tao retreated about five or six meters. The human wall and the goalkeeper began to pay attention to Xiang Tao, who had made a lot of preparations.

After the wall was lined up, the referee exited the penalty area and he blew the whistle.

Xiang Tao began to run, and sure enough, he went for the ball, and the players in England also knew that Xiang Tao's habit was to volley the football vigorously, so that the football could drill into the goal from under the foot of the jumping human wall. So since it is Xiang Tao who is the main punishment, then the human wall must not jump, and the space under his feet cannot be given to the other party.

Zhang Jun gave the football to Yang Pan, and Yang Pan stepped on it, which deepened the judgment of the English players that Xiang Tao was going to keep up with the powerful volley. I didn't expect Xiang Tao to run halfway. Suddenly turned and ran past Zhang Jun, and Zhang Jun followed with a kick, pulling Yang Pan up against the ground, and the football went around the human wall and flew straight to the near corner of the goal!

Robinson had the wall close to the corner station in the hope of sealing the near corner. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jun's right-footed shot still bypassed the human wall!

Thankfully, the crowd in the box didn't block Robinson's view, and he flew into it, but the ball hit the high crossbar and crashed into the net above.

The Chinese team still hasn't scored!

"Look at this ball...... It's dangerous! The Chinese team's free-kick cooperation deceived England's human wall, but although Zhang Jun's kick went around the human wall, it was too high. Flew straight out of the beam! ”

Zhang Jun waved his hand in annoyance, turned around and ran away. He felt that the opponent's wall had not retreated enough to 9.15 meters, otherwise he would not have increased his strength to get around the wall, so that he would have kicked the football too high.

Xiang Tao, who had just come up to cooperate with Zhang Jun's shot, ran back quickly at this time, and when he passed Zhang Jun, he turned his head and applauded Zhang Jun: "I must go in next time!" ”

Zhang Jun smiled bitterly. Next time, next time, next time, next time, this game will pass quickly. If you can't grasp the opportunity now, what's the use of it next time?

※※※

Zhang Jun was compared to a swordsman by FIFA in this cup according to the traditional Chinese metaphor, of course, what comes to the minds of Westerners is not necessarily the kind of white-clothed swordsman in Chinese martial arts, but is likely to be a Western-style swordsman. However, the title was quickly accepted by fans around the world, especially Chinese fans.

He's scored five goals in four games so far, an average of just over one goal per game, which is a remarkable scoring frequency. No matter how hard his opponent tries to defend him. It always allows him to find a shot on goal. Always score goals. Except for the game against Mexico that was unlucky and did not score a goal, he scored in the rest of the games, which can be regarded as a remarkable achievement in the history of the World Cup in recent years.

You must know that the World Cup has been held for 18 times, and only the captain of the Brazilian team in the 1970 World Cup has a record of scoring in every game in the World Cup. This record has not been broken to this day.

If the most promising Chinese player in this game is Zhang Jun. I'm afraid no one will have any objections. How good Zhang Jundi's condition is this season, everyone has also seen. What is even more commendable is that his good form has not been lost because he has played too many games, and has been coherently maintained to the World Cup, attacking the city for the Chinese team in the game, invincible and invincible.

As England chose their red shirt for this match, the Chinese team wore their away shirt for the first time in this World Cup, with white as the base color, red and gold stripes. This kind of dress really makes Zhang Jun, who is wearing the No. 11 jersey, feel a little "white swordsman".

Now this "white-clothed swordsman" is trying to find an opportunity to make a sword, he is not the kind of ordinary man, his sword can't be lit casually, but once it is unsheathed, it will inevitably see blood, and it will inevitably die. An efficient killer, Zhang Jun is still implementing his own philosophy.

Crewe controlled the ball in midfield and surrounded him by two masters, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard. England take Crewe very seriously, as evidenced by how many English players come up to defend after each time he gets the ball.

Gerrard kicked him in the back, Crewe stumbled and the ball remained under his control. Frank Lampard came up with a collision, not to mention the friendly greeting from the pitch, but he was more fierce than anyone else on the pitch.

Crewe was worried that he couldn't get out, when he saw Lampard bump into him, he had an idea in his heart, and with Lampard's collision, his body rushed out, and at the same time hooked the football away at his feet, Lampard did Crewe a favor instead of knocking him down, but did Crewe a favor.

"Crewe is the star of the game, he alone has attracted the attention of all the English midfielders, making Yang Pan, Li Yongle and others dull! His disc is superb, and his ball control is like glue on his shoes. Neither Frank Lampard nor Steven Gerrard could break off! "The commentator was clearly a fan of Crewe and he gave all his praise to Crewe.

"But...... No matter how beautiful the dribble is, what good does it do if you can't get the team to score? The Chinese team is not in a good situation at the moment, they are attacking in full swing now, and if they don't equalize at this time, the half-time break will give England a chance to breathe. As soon as their own momentum drops, this game is even more difficult to play. The commentator was the opposite of the commentator's opinion.

"Yes, you have a point, the first half is less than ten minutes away, let's take a look at the last wave of the Chinese team's offensive."

※※※

Li Yongle controlled the rhythm a little, and the Chinese attack just now was too fierce, and it looked very chaotic. The kick was out of order. This is not going to work, the situation must be stabilized.

He passed the football back to the central defender, and Liu Peng received the football and then passed it to Li Suisheng. At this time, Li Yongle yelled loudly and commanded the back line to reverse the ball, and Li Suisheng passed the football to Xiang Tao on the left side as he said.

Some England fans booed defiantly. The Chinese team turned a deaf ear and continued to reverse the ball in the midfield.

Xiang Tao passed the football to Wang Yu, and Wang Yu passed it to Li Yongle. After the football has come full circle. It's back to square one.

This time Li Yongle did not fall to his feet again, after such a round of passing, the mentality of the Chinese team players has stabilized, and the formation is not as chaotic as just now. Although the opposition defence is already in position, it doesn't matter because that's how they are.

Since it is positional warfare. Then it has to look like a positional battle. Blindly engaging in surprise attacks is not a long-term solution, steady and steady, patiently looking for opportunities, and giving a key blow is the effect Li Yongle wants.

He is the brain of the Chinese team, and others can't think about these things, but he must think about them and think about them thoroughly.

Just when the England fans kept booing the Chinese players and laughing at them, Li Yongle suddenly made a long pass and sent the football directly to the front.

Yang Pan receives the ball. Then he passed the football to Crewe, who came up to pick him up. The two of them are staggered. He ran to the middle, while Crewe ran to the right.

Crewe was dribbling the ball down the wing, and in the same way, Gerrard and Ashley Cole pressed up, and with the lesson of being broken down by Crewe. Ashley Cole couldn't hold it up any longer. For Gerald's help, he did not refuse. Because in his opinion, neither Crewe can stop them now, and this person is no longer the impulsive boy who fought with Vieira in the first Premier League game.

Crewe started cycling, this time not quite like a traditional cycling.

He pulled the ball to the right with his right foot and then swiped it over it with his right foot, and Ashley Cole and Gerrard were unmoved, knowing it was going to be a masterpiece.

Sure enough, Crewe pulled the ball back with his left foot, and also drew a circle on the ball with his left heel.

The feint seemed pointless, and neither of the men defending him knew exactly what Crewe was planning. Is it good to delay the time to attack with the Chinese team? Judging from the first half of the game, the Chinese team's offense pays attention to one word: fast. Pass fast, break through fast, shoot fast. Crewe is quick to do even feints. Now suddenly slow down, what are you doing?

Just when the two of them couldn't figure it out, Crewe suddenly passed the ball!

He didn't run, without any warning, and suddenly he got up on the spot and crossed!

It's almost impossible to pass well near the touchline, without running, and getting up on the spot to cross, is it a hasty kick?

It didn't take long for Crewe to find out what he was trying to do, as he relied on his popularity and feints on the flanks to attract two England defenders, and then gave Jang Jun time in the box while attention was on him. Football is passed to Zhang Jundi!

"Look at him! Keep him out! Robinson shouted. He is ready for everything, this goal cannot be scored by the Chinese team in any case, the first half is about to end, just give England a fifteen minutes of respite......

Terry watched Zhang Jun rush over and reached out to hold it tightly.

At this time, Zhang Jun found that he was running a little too fast...... He rushed over the top......

Damn it! When Zhang Jun turned around and wanted to retreat, he found that his jersey was firmly grasped by Terry, and he couldn't go back at all!

At this time, as long as you scream and then fall down, the penalty is a sure thing, right? This thought flashed through Zhang Jun's mind.

But looking back at the football flying towards him in the air, he fell down like this, Zhang Jun was unwilling. Penalty kick...... What is a striker's ability to score from a penalty spot?

Thinking so, Zhang Jun turned around sharply and rushed outward. It seems that he is desperate to grab this ball.

Terry felt the pressure on his hands, and he naturally wouldn't admit defeat like that, strikers and defenders will always be such a pair of mortal enemies.

Jang Jun desperately tries to break free from Terry's control, but Terry tries hard to prevent Jang Jun from getting his wish. In the end, Terry broke out violently, and with his hand, he actually pulled Jang Jun back, and he also pulled him to the ground!

Zhang Jun saw that the center of gravity was not guaranteed. simply gave up his plan to break free from Terry, and decided to do it anyway.

He jerked back as he lifted his left foot upwards and then quickly pressed down, picking up his right heel. Just in time to draw a flying soccer ball!

Upside down gold hook!

……

Zhao Keman, Hu Ying, Wu Hookshuang, Xueming;

The silver saddle shines on the white horse, like a shooting star.

Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles;

Brushing off the clothes and going away, hiding deep with the name.

……

In the enemy formation, the white-clothed swordsman flashed. The long sword was unsheathed, and in an instant, the cold air was pressing, and the murderous aura suddenly appeared, and after the white light, the sword was put back into the sheath.

Terry did see a white light—an afterimage of a silver-white soccer ball streaked across his eyes......

“Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooal！！！”

Robinson stood in place and watched the football that had just fallen from the net in a daze, while Terry did not stand firm on his feet and fell directly after Zhang Jun.

Jang Jun got up from Terry, then spread his arms and excitedly ran towards Crewe, who was giving him an assist on the wing.

Who would have thought that Zhang Jun would actually shoot with a barb? And it shot in......

"The ball went in!! The Chinese team equalized at the end of the first half! Barb shot! It's so beautiful! Zhang Jun scored his sixth goal of this World Cup! He's now a nowhere near the top scorer! Adriano, who is in second place, has no change in his tally of goals. England's lead is gone! In the face of the combination of Zhang Jun and Crewe, you hold the ground at all. Englishman! ”

This time, the Chinese fans in the stands shouted in unison as if someone was commanding: "Who can fight between the vertical and horizontal?!" Who can fight it?! "The English, who had been booing the Chinese players just now, were all silent at this time.

They weren't asking the English. In fact, none of them asked, they were just expressing their confidence. What the Italians didn't do, you England couldn't do either! Want to stop us in our tracks?

Let the horses come.

※※※

“Oh**！” O'Neill angrily slapped his tactical board on the awning of the dugout, having been thinking about how to adjust to the half-time break to allow England to continue that rhythm in the second half. I didn't expect the first half to be over. was equalized by the Chinese team.

Qiu Suhui, who was on the other side, saw Zhang Jun score a goal, jumped up from his seat and hugged Hu Li next to him like a child.

It was even more boiling on the bench.

"When Crewe and Zhang Jun were in Fiorentina, the combination of the two scared the Italian defenders, and now this combination has moved to the World Cup, to the Chinese team, and it is still very powerful. Crewe singled out on the touchline to draw the attention of Ashley Cole and Steven Gerrard, emptying England's central defence and giving Jang the chance to get on the ground. At the same time, Zhang Jun also had the upper hand in the individual confrontation with Terry, and he humiliated Terry with a barb shot! ”

The commentator commented on the goal just now for the fans, and Zhang Jun and Crewe were the key figures.

Zhang Jun, who celebrated with his teammates, bowed his head and kissed the flag on his chest in front of the fans, and then patted the flag again, and their actions once again made the Chinese fans jubilant, and people cheered for his name. The Chinese language is not understandable by any foreigner, but "ZhangJun" is the lingua franca that fans on the planet can understand and understand the meaning behind the name.

There are also many neutral fans who shouted this name with the Chinese fans, because Zhang Jun's goal just now was so beautiful, which made them supporters of the Chinese team at that moment.

※※※

Just as the TV was playing the replay footage of Zhang Jun's barbed goal over and over again, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half. The first half ended in a 1-1 draw between the two sides.

Judging by the situation on the field, the English players were somewhat frustrated. After all, it's hard to get ahead. But at the end of the first half, it made people pull back, and everyone would feel unhappy. However, the referee didn't give them a chance to vent, and hurriedly blew the final whistle, which made them suddenly feel that they couldn't do it.

However, at half-time, the manager will definitely make a move, and they firmly believe that with the strength and prestige of England, the final team that will qualify must be England.

On the other hand, the Chinese team, although they had the advantage in the first half. It was only at the end of the day that the score was returned, but they were all happy with the result. And more importantly, the goal scored by Zhang Jun is very beautiful, it is a barb that can greatly hit the opponent's morale!

The goal also boosted the morale of the Chinese team, who all believed that the team that had adjusted after the break would definitely win against England in the end.

The two teams left the court in different moods and the game went into halftime.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first half is over. I think if the game lasts another ten minutes. The Chinese team may still be able to score because their morale is high and they can play any game. This half-time break was really important for England and earned them a precious respite. What will change in the second half, let's wait and see! ”

※※※

Contrary to the joy of celebrating the goal just now, Qiu Suhui now looks at the players with a serious face.

'Don't be happy about an equaliser. England are a strong team and they will definitely have a move in the second half. So just an equaliser now doesn't give us peace of mind at all. They defended too intensively, and the goal we scored, to be honest, had an element of luck. If you look at the stats, we scored just one goal from 11 shots in the first half, and they scored with just four shots. It had to be improved in the second half, we had to improve our shooting percentage, and if we couldn't score, the English could take advantage of the space behind us to counter-attack. So. In the second half, you have to pay attention to your defense. Wang Yu, don't go up to attack, defend in the back with peace of mind, and keep Rooney firmly in my eyes! ”

Wang Yu nodded. In the World Cup, he is far less dazzling than Zhang Jun, Crewe and others, but his role must not be underestimated, because of the two backs of the Chinese team. Li Yongle focuses more on offense, and defense mainly relies on. Dirty work and tiring work are all done by Wang Yu, without people like him, there would be no scenery of Zhang Jun and others in front.

'The two full-backs have to pay attention to the rhythm of the assists, you are a full-back when you are defending, and you have to come back in time when you need to defend. Watch out for the English counter-attack, their long balls can be quite threatening. ”

Yang Pan and Zhao Pengyu also nodded.

"As for the rest...... It would be nice to keep up that momentum in the second half and keep attacking. The rest of the time is up to you. ”

After saying this, the atmosphere in the locker room suddenly became lively.

Of course, they all congratulate Zhang Jun on scoring the goal, and now Zhang Jun is the most promising person among all the players to win the World Cup Golden Boot. Every goal he scores, it means that he is one step closer to his dream.

Zhang Jun himself is also very happy, since the Spring Festival this year, his form has been very good, and more importantly, he has not been plagued by injuries at critical moments like some players. The reason why many talented players have not performed well in the World Cup is because of injuries.

At this time, Zhang Jun not only thanked his teammates for their support, but also thanked one person, his dead father. It was he who begged his father to bless him not to get hurt before completing his dream when he was offering incense during the Spring Festival, and sure enough, his fragile left leg did not cause him any trouble, on the contrary, he was as strong as a cow.

Do you think there is a god in this world? Zhang Jun definitely didn't believe in these things. But there is indeed a very amazing thing in this world that affects every corner of our lives.

That's faith.

※※※

In the dressing room of the England team, the atmosphere was a little solemn. Let the opponent equalize at the last moment, and no one wants to do it.

O'Neill hadn't recovered from the barbed blow to the door, and it was only after a few moments, looking at the silent players, that he decided to say something.

"Actually, it's nothing, we're just back in the game. We can score a goal against them and then we can do it in the second half. "Look at the team members staring at him one by one. He propped his hands on the platform and leaned down, "You don't have to put on a frustrated expression, the Chinese team is indeed very strong, but we are England." Show your momentum, defeat them, and send them back to China! ”

Subsequently. He made some adjustments to the first half of the pitch. Because the score is the same again, the tactics of blindly defending in the second half of the first half can no longer be used, and the team needs to actively counterattack while stabilizing the defense.

In the second half of the first half, due to the Chinese team's offensive too fierce, Owen Rooney and others had to withdraw all to defend. It didn't work as well as it should.

Now that the score is drawn, maybe it's them who are happy because they finally have room to play again. Quick counter-attack, this is the favorite attacking style of the speed striker.

※※※

At halftime, many photographers on the sidelines no longer stared at the pitch with their cameras. They either ask their friends to buy some fast food coffee and come back to fill their stomachs, or they get together in groups to chat.

Naturally, Chinese photojournalists have come together. Chinese like to get together.

In the early years, there were almost no Chinese photojournalists in such world competitions, and the photos used by the Chinese media were bought with money from foreign media. Later, with the rise of Chinese football, more and more Chinese players appeared on the world stage, and our photojournalists also went abroad and became frequent guests in international competitions.

Perhaps because she is also a photojournalist, Sophie thinks that most photojournalists in China are good people, much better than those written journalists, although there will also be paparazzi who secretly take pictures of her and Zhang Jun dating. The authenticity of the pictures of the photo reporters is verifiable, and it is far more credible than the nonsense of the text reporters.

Sophie's identity has long been no news in the circle. Everyone accepted the fact that the beautiful photojournalist Sophie was Zhang Jundi's fiancée. And now the outside world is in full swing. After the World Cup, Zhang Jun is going to marry Sophie.

Based on the principle that opposites attract, Sophie was surrounded by many Chinese counterparts at halftime. Everyone is holding a hot water kettle and chatting, which is also a good leisure. And because of the beautiful women by his side, all the wooden men are full of witty words at the moment.

"Sophie, I heard that you and Zhang Jun got married after the World Cup. Isn't it really? Someone asked.

"yes." Sophie brushed away the hair that was blocking her eyes. Everyone knew about it, and there was no need for her to hide anything.

"That's really congratulations, do you want me to take the wedding photo? Let me tell you, I'm the No. 1 portrait photographer of the national team. 1 too! ”

"Okay, don't blow it, Lao Li. Are you embarrassed to talk about your frustrated portrait photography? ”

"Fellow, we know each other well, but if you say that about me, I will sue you for slander. It's you, right? ”

Seeing two old men in their forties burying each other here, Sophie thought it was quite funny, and she covered her mouth and smiled. "Don't bother uncles, we have photographers." She still remembers what Chen Huafeng said to them a long, long time ago, when she and Zhang Jun were high school students: When you get married in the future, I will take wedding photos for you.

Therefore, this position is reserved for Chen Huafeng.

Hearing Sophie call them "uncle", the old men who never refused to admit that they were old cried......

"Hey, you are so happy, think about my yellow-faced woman......" Lao Li sighed on the side.

"Okay, this is someone's **, don't inquire about you one by one. Let's talk about the competition. After this game, Sophie, what are you going to write about it? I'm a big reader of your column...... Why didn't our magazine dig you? In the last sentence, the speaker whispered.

Sophie smiled: "Hehe, I haven't thought about it yet, I won't know what to write until the game is over." We equalised, but there were still 45 minutes left in the second half and there were a lot of uncertainties. Of course, from the bottom of my heart, I still hope that the Chinese team wins. Don't you think so? ”

"Of course! Of course! Chinese definitely support Chinese football! A group of men nodded desperately, for fear that they would not be able to fully express their firm beliefs in their hearts.

The oldest photographer in the group had gray hair. He squeezed in from behind the crowd. Everyone present knew him, and Sophie knew him. He is the predecessor and pioneer of Chinese sports photojournalists - Rong Yunsheng. He has gone to many international competitions to take photos at his own expense, and his photos have been liked by many foreign sports stars and officials. In 2010, he was already 70 years old, but he still insisted on coming to shoot on site.

In his own words, the appearance of the Chinese team in the World Cup is a big deal, and he has been engaged in sports photography all his life. This time you can't miss it anyway. Four years ago, he missed the opportunity to go to Germany because of a heart attack, which he regretted very much, but fortunately, the Chinese boys fought for their luck and reached the World Cup finals four years later. He got what he wanted.

This is a group of old-timers respected by all those present, and they all put away their laughter and looked at the old man quietly.

Unexpectedly, Rong Lao didn't say anything. Take off the hat on your head and give Sophie a good bow!

Everyone was stunned.

Sophie was also surprised, but she reacted quickly, and quickly got up and helped Rong Yunsheng with both hands: "Rong Lao! What are you doing here? ”

Suddenly, some people came up to help him. "Yes, Rong Lao, you are ......"

"Don't help me. I can stand. I just want to bow to this girl. "Rong Yunsheng has a lot of strength, and he doesn't look like a seventy-year-old man who has had a heart attack.

"But...... Why are you bowing to me, bowing to me? "Sophie thinks this gift is too big, how can she accept this worship?" Rong Lao, you are an old-timer and teacher that I respect. I can't accept it anyway. ”

Rong Yunsheng saw that Sophie's tone was a little unhappy, and he hurriedly explained with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry. Listen to me. You all know I'm a sports photography enthusiast. He has always called himself a "sports photography enthusiast", because he has not been systematically trained and is consciously talented. Although later won many honorary titles such as membership of the Chinese Photographers Association. But he always represents the "photography enthusiasts" who come out of the grassroots. "I've almost dedicated my whole life to the camera in my hand. But you don't know, do you? I'm a standard fan, a hardcore Chinese fan. ”

Others were shocked, this was the first time they had heard of it. I've never seen Rong Lao mention it before.

"When I was in the Chinese professional league in '94, I took a lot of photos of the professional league." Those who have a good memory remember that the Football Association once published a book to commemorate the decade of professional football. The author's name under many of the photos inside is indeed "Rong Yunsheng".

"Chinese football is not angry, I, like those fans, don't know how many tears I shed." Rong Yunsheng's withered hand pointed to the red in the stands. "But now we also have a team to be proud of. In 2002 we were able to get to the World Cup, and some people said it was luck, but now that we are in South Africa, no one says that we are shit luck. As a Chinese fan, I can puff up my chest when I talk to those foreigners, saying that I am a fan of the Chinese team. And not only that, but there are also many foreigners who are fans of our team. In the early years, I couldn't see these at all, not only couldn't I see them, but I didn't even dare to think about them! The old man's tone gradually became agitated, while the others fell silent.

"This girl is Zhang Jun's fiancée, and I also know that you have a good relationship with many people in the national team, and I, an old man, have no chance to express my gratitude in person like that group of good guys, so I can only bow to you and thank you. You have a good husband, we fans have a good player, no, a group of good players! Rong Lao gave a thumbs up to the stunned Sophie.
