I admit that at a time when the whole world is nostalgic, it is very uncommon to come out and say that I am a fan of Zhang Jun, and I have been watching the game since the Chinese team won the World Cup in South Africa - because almost everyone has been a fan of Zhang Jun since that time.

But I'm not going to hide my love and admiration for him, even if he can't connect with a few people anymore, even if he can't make a dragon soar, even if he spends most of the season on the bench with injuries, it doesn't matter. Because those who have just started watching football have no way to understand and understand my feelings, Zhang Jun is no longer as simple as a star in my heart. He's an icon, he's a sign of my youth, and I've spent countless weekend nights in front of the TV just to watch a Serie A game with him. Whenever I see his long flowing hair, I feel very relieved because he is still there, still on the court.

……

I'm lucky because I'm a fan of seeing Zhang Jun play. However, I am also unfortunate because what I see is an incomplete Zhang Jun.

Florence, where Zhang Jun is located, is a dynasty, but what I see is the end of a dynasty. Zhang Jun is a legend in itself, but I only see the back of the legend......

Am I lucky or unlucky?

- When Zhang Jun announced in front of the camera that he would retire after the end of the season, a young fan wrote this sentiment on his blog.

When the dynasty was finally annihilated by the yellow sand, the legend also had a forgotten day.

On Xizhaosi Street, Chongwen District, Yanjing, a unique and beautifully decorated office building stands tall, which is the new office building of the Chinese Football Association. In fact, this building is not new, it is not new, this is after the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the Chinese Football Association with the support of FIFA funding, but after all, it has a history of four years.

It's just recently been redecorated because of the Chinese team's historical surname winning the World Cup. There is also a huge advertising poster hanging on the wall of this building, which shows the Chinese team winning the cup in South Africa. Obviously, it is rare for the Chinese Football Association to have such a glorious moment, and it is natural to publicize it significantly.

At this moment, this shiny poster is shining inescapably in the afternoon sun. Almost everyone who passes by will look up and salute it, and some will even take a group photo here. Although you may not be able to see what the person looks like because of the backlight after the lens is raised, people are just trying to take that picture.

At this moment, the outside of the building is full of cars, and at the same time, many people with cameras on their shoulders and cameras on their chests are rushing inside. Occasionally, someone would stop and look up.

Li Yan was one of those who stopped.

Thinking about everything that had happened in the past 48 hours, he felt inexplicably amused when he saw this picture again that marked the golden generation of Chinese football to be crowned king.

Chinese football has never given up the purpose of entertaining the public, even after winning the world championship, it is still entertaining us.

Who would have thought? Meritorious head coach Qiu Suhui actually took the initiative to resign, and it is said that this resignation is not as he declared, because he takes care of his parents, wife and children, the real reason is that the contradiction between him and Chen Wei, the leader of the Football Association, has deepened, and he has to make the decision to leave.

At the celebration party more than half a month ago, Chen Wei hugged Qiu Suhui like a brother and said emotionally: "You are a hero of Chinese football!" Now rumors of deep contradictions between the two have broken out. The world is changing so fast......

Looking further up the giant poster, the afternoon sun is dazzling.

※※※

At 3:45 p.m. on August 3, 2010, the Chinese Football Association held a press conference in the press hall of their office building. It was officially announced that Qiu Suhui, the former head coach of the Chinese men's national football team, and Hu Li, assistant coach, had resigned from their original positions, and the selection of the coach of the Chinese men's football team also began.

The sun is shining outside the Football Association building, the bees and butterflies are dancing in the flower beds, and a beautiful butterfly flapping its wings, what kind of storm will it turn into in a few years?

Zhang Jun was eating breakfast prepared for him by Sophie at his home in Florence, and by the way, he read the new Florence Morning Post, turned to the sports edition, and the most eye-catching headline was not the news of Florence's preparation for the new season, nor the unveiling moment of the bronze statue of Zhang Jun created by Florence fans, but the news of the resignation of the head coach of the Chinese football team.

"Sophie, you see, we won the world championship once, and now a change of manager will be reported by the foreign media, which is quite like the feeling that we followed others to hype up the change of coach in England."

Sophie took the newspaper in Zhang Jun's hand and quickly scanned it.

"Qiu Suhui has resigned, who will come next? I'm always worried that your group of players will listen to any coach again, and the Football Association will not be able to do this work. Sophie assumed the posture of a journalist.

Zhang Jun shrugged: "It's useless to say anything now, I'll talk about it then." ”

Sophie put down the newspaper, then looked at Zhang Jun and said gently, "Don't read it, eat it." You have another important event today. ”

※※※

Zhang Jun will never forget the years when he was still playing in the second division, and those years played a vital role in his future growth, and it is no exaggeration to say that without Zhang Jun who played in the second division, there would be no mature Zhang Jun now.

One day, in the team's locker room, Ricano, who was the team's top scorer and the top star at the time, still remembers what he said to him.

"Bastuta is my idol and goal, and I would like to one day erect a statue of me outside Frankie and retire here......"

As a result, only one season after being promoted to the first division, the former "wild bull" was sold to the second division by the new owner Ren Yu, and his words became a perfect sound, a wish that he could never realize. Unexpectedly, this dream came true in Zhang Jun.

With his relationship with Ren, he is likely to retire in Florence. Now, the Fiorentina fans have erected a life-size bronze statue of him outside the Frankie Stadium, with a sense of solidified power as he stands in place, with open arms to receive the cheers of the fans.

Today is the day of the unveiling of this statue, and Zhang Jun naturally wants to attend this fan event, because he is the protagonist.

Sophie accompanies Zhang Jun as Zhang Jun's wife, and she is beautiful and has been affectionately called the "Fei Leng Cui Bride" by fans, which shows how high her reputation is.

Zhang Jun stood next to the statue covered with red cloth with the microphone, the host was constantly inciting the fans below to cheer, Zhang Jun couldn't interrupt, he could only look at it with a smile and accept it.

Banzai's voice finally calmed down, and Zhang Jun finally had a chance to speak.

Naturally, we would like to thank the Fiorentina fans for their support, and of course, we must not forget to say good things about the Florentina municipal axe, as well as the contribution of the Fiorentina club.

These are all "prescribed routines".

"Thank you fans for supporting me and to be honest, I'm very proud. To be able to erect your own statue here, that would be something that a very great player can do. But I'm not old yet, I want to play here until I retire, I want to continue to bring you more goals and trophies until one day my body can't play anymore. Thank you! Thank you for your support over the years, and I hope that you will continue to support you in the future. You are the real heroes of Florence! ”

The reporters below kept taking pictures, and CCTV naturally also had reporters come to the scene to shoot interviews.

Zhang Jun raised his arms high and accepted everyone's cheers as if he were on the court, just like the statue behind him.

Later, a European journalist commented after the news photo: This era has begun.

And in the sports news of the Chinese evening, the news that Zhang Jun was molded in Florence and the news that the Chinese Football Association is actively looking for Qiu Suhui's successor are placed together, which is definitely not an unintentional arrangement by the editors. In a sense, this arrangement is very interesting and very intriguing.

※※※

After Qiu Suhui resigned, as he said, he returned to his home in Dalian, accompanied his parents, wife and children to enjoy the happiness of the family, and it was rare to relax. Only at this time does he not have to worry about the future of the Chinese team, nor does he have to deal with people he doesn't like, and he can even push off all the reporters who want to come to interview, because now he is just an ordinary person, he doesn't want to have anything to do with this circle anymore, even if it's just temporary peace is so precious in his eyes.

Everyone has no own home, and in this summer, even Chen Wei is happy.

Of course, how long this happiness can last, no one knows.

※※※

Zhang Jun and Sophie's honeymoon is too short, and it can't be said to be a "honeymoon", but a "honeyweek".

Fiorentina started their pre-season training camp in August. Ren Yudi didn't buy any stars this summer, and after Fiorentina won the treble, he believes that Fiorentina is strong enough now, and what they need is not to replenish their strength, but to stabilize their existing camp.

Because with the Chinese team winning the World Cup, the value of Chinese players has also begun to rise. The biggest headache for Fiorentina manager Batistuta this summer is that he has to deal with requests from other clubs to buy players.

Even a player like Zhang Jun, who was designated as a "non-sale" by Ren Yudi, has countless giants who have handed olive branches. Not to mention the other players. Crewe is the most asked player, and since Zinedine Zidane's retirement, Real Madrid have been looking for his successor, but unfortunately they have not been able to do so, and there are fewer and fewer really good strikers in world football today. And Crewe is known as a forward midfielder who can be equal to Ronaldinho, how can he be ignored?

Real Madrid's transfer price for Crewe is as high as 75000000 euros, a figure that has driven countless clubs crazy, but Ren Yu is unmoved. Maybe he saw his own past in Crewe, and Ren Yudi has always taken good care of Crewe. In an interview, he said that his Fiorentina would never sell any of their players for monetary reasons. He does have this confidence, Florence has achieved great results in the past few seasons, the global influence is flourishing, and the business potential has been greatly developed by the behind-the-scenes military advisers like Hua Fang, in the Chinese market alone, they have opened 15 franchise stores in Yanjing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Chengdu, Zhengzhou, Xi'an, Dalian nine cities, specializing in selling various souvenirs authorized by the Florence club, and the business is very hot.

Most of the money that Ren Yu invested in the acquisition of Florence was recovered. Now he is already starting to think about Hua Fang's advice to go back to China to play on the tour after this season. I believe that I will be able to make a lot of money again.

As for Xiang Tao, this dynamic left-back, his performance as a central defender during the World Cup was eye-catching, and all coaches recognise that this is an all-rounder on the back line, he can play any position, and what club doesn't want such a panacea in their squad? AC Milan are the most aggressive team in the pursuit of Xiang Tao, and they have offered a transfer fee of 30 million euros in the hope of getting Xiang Tao. Of course, all this is just a good wish in front of Florence under Ren Yudi's leadership. And Xiang Tao also said that he likes the feeling of playing in Fiorentina, he likes his teammates here, the fans here, the city here, and everything here. Unless Florence chases him away, he will never leave.

As for others, being able to play in a club that has won the Triple Crown and has a generous owner is naturally a good thing to ask for. Even some of the stars of other clubs have a good opinion of Fiorentina. For example, Arsenal's winger Reyes wore rumours of a public desire for Fiorentina this summer.

Fiorentina's aggressive attacking style of play is indeed a paradise for many attacking players, not to mention being able to play with Zhang Jun?

Colombia's young star, John who shines in South Africa this summer. Jones made it to the Europa League because of his performances at the World Cup, but instead of joining Fiorentina, he went to Real Sociedad in La Liga. Before the transfer, he admitted that his idol was Zhang Jun, and he very much hoped to partner with Zhang Jun - this was caused by his fight against Zhang Jun in the World Cup.

There is nothing great about being the idol of the fans, but it is not easy to be the idol of the stars. Zhang Jun did it easily.

In contrast to the madness of the outside world, Fiorentina was calm inside, with the team first going to Switzerland for a closed training camp and then to the Netherlands for the Ajax Invitational.

The team's managers have little to do other than negotiate contract extensions and salary increases with some of the stars' agents.

After a perfect holiday, Sabato appeared on the sidelines in good spirits, and his voice rang out on the training ground again and again. The atmosphere was fantastic, the mood was high and there were no injuries.

Even Sabato admits that he has had the smoothest and most perfect season since he took charge of Fiorentina.

※※※

At the Ajax Invitational in mid-August, Fiorentina beat PSV Eindhoven in the semi-finals and then Ajax on penalties in the final to win the tournament and receive a €200,000 bonus.

For Ren Yudi's field, they don't want to pay for it, and Sabato changed two completely different lineups in two games to look at the form of each player, with completely different starters in the first and second games. In the first game, last season's main players came on and the result was a 3-0 win over PSV Eindhoven with reservations. In the final, Sabato replaced all the main players, and the result was a 2:2 draw with Ajax, and finally had to rely on penalties to decide the winner.

Sabato's arrangement made the Dutch fans who came to watch the game very unhappy, because in addition to cheering for Ajax, another important reason for them was to hope to see Zhang Jun and Crewe's amazing performances, but they didn't expect Zhang Jun and Crewe to not play for a minute in the final, which disappointed the fans.

Sabato naturally has his point, judging from the first game, Zhang Jun's form is not in his last moment. After a successful season and summer, his body is also very tired, and this is the time when he needs rest instead of playing. In the past few days of training, he has been recovering in the strength room, and has not participated in the team's joint training.

In the 3-0 win over PSV Eindhoven, fans and the media had high hopes for Jang Jun, but Jang Jun did not score and did not look very positive in his run, which was very disappointing. After the game, some media claimed that Zhang Jun was in poor condition, and the new season was worrying. Some people even dug up old accounts, mentioning that after the World Cup in Germany four years ago, Zhang Jun's frequent injuries and sluggish form led to conflicts between him and the then head coach Malesani. Of course, with the current relationship between Zhang Jun and Sabato, it is impossible to have a conflict, and the team will not change the owner because of this, but Zhang Jun's sluggish state is really worrying. Four years ago, he only finished third in one World Cup top scorer, and he was in a slump for a few whole seasons, and this time he is not only the top scorer in the World Cup, but also the best player, will this slump be more serious?

Don't blame the mediagate for all the fuss, because they always do.

Zhang Jun did not give any explanation for this, and Sabato did not say anything. Only Xiang Tao refuted this in an interview. "History has told us countless times that anyone who doubts Zhang Jun will die a miserable death in the end."

Having won the Champions League for the first time, Fiorentina will need to play in the UEFA Super Cup before the start of the season, which is the most important game before the season, and definitely not a warm-up match or a friendly match. Normally, no coach would use this game to test the squad and adjust the condition of the players, because it is the first honor of the season. But Sabato is destined not to be an ordinary coach, the outside world is saying that Zhang Jun is not in good shape, and he also thinks so, Zhang Jun is indeed a little out of shape, so he just used this game to find Zhang Jun's state. He had instructed before the game that the whole team should pass the football to Zhang Jun and let him finish the shot. It's not advice, it's a tactical requirement, it's a manager's order.

Last season, Fiorentina started their successful season with a win in the Italian Super Cup. So can history repeat itself this season?

※※※

The European Super Bowl and CCTV5 are very rare to broadcast live. Just because it was a Fiorentina match, there were three Chinese players in this team, and their captain was Zhang Jun.

On August 21, the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, the UEFA Super Cup.

Although it has been rumored that Zhang Jun's competitive condition is not good and his body is very tired. But in this game, Sabato still put Zhang Jun in the starting position.

This match also has a special meaning for Zhang Jun: it is his 200th match for Fiorentina. Since moving to Fiorentina on loan in January 2006, he has played in the second division, the first division, the Coppa Italia and the Champions Cup, the Super Cup...... If you count all the official competitions, there are exactly 200 as of today, August 21, 2010.

Zhang Jun didn't know about this record himself, but a reporter reminded him that he only noticed it.

"It's amazing that I've played 200 official games for Fiorentina. I never remember it, but I was a little excited to hear it, and I hope it's just the beginning, and I hope I can have the next two hundred. As for my status? Hey, didn't you know when you played? In an interview before the game, Zhang Jun said to many reporters with a smile on his face.

When Zhang Jun led the team out of the tunnel wearing the captain's armband and purple jersey, there was a huge cheer at the Allianz Stadium, a large part of which came from neutral fans, who all came to see Zhang Jun. Fiorentina today is like Real Madrid before it, with a large number of fans all over the world.

Fiorentina's opponent in the UEFA Super Cup is actually not weak, it is Liverpool from the English Premier League. But Zhang Jun and others were too bright, and they were reduced to outright supporting roles. The whole world is talking about the state of Fiorentina and Zhang Jun, which naturally makes the Liverpudlians very unhappy, and they want to defend their dignity and honour with the victory, so that the world's eyes will shift from Fiorentina to them.

But as soon as the game began, they quickly learned why Fiorentina is the strongest club in football today.

Just three minutes into the game, Van Persie, who replaced Joaquin as the right winger, used a breakthrough and then a diagonal pass to give the ball to Zhang Jun in front. Zhang Jun's shot was taken by Liverpool goalkeeper Charles. Corkland blocked out, but it was a wake-up call for Liverpool's backline. Just now, Liverpool's backline had a hole in the ribs between the centre-backs and full-backs, and the result was keenly grasped by Zhang Jun and Robin van Persie.

This match is not only to help Zhang Jun get back into shape, but also to accept the results of his own experiments. Last season, because of the outstanding performances of Zhang Jun and Pazzini, Van Persie couldn't find a feeling in the forward line, and his poor performance and long-term inability to play made him think about it for a while. Sabato has simply withdrawn him from the front line to the back line this season, and this Super Cup is also an opportunity for him to test the success of his reform.

From the very beginning of the game, Van Persie was at home on the right side of midfield, and he performed very well.

It's just that Zhang Jun didn't shoot the goal, and many people frowned - does this mean that Zhang Jun is really not in shape?

Soon, Zhang Jun used his practical actions to put those fans at ease, and instead gave the opponents a headache.

In the seventeenth minute of the game, Zhang Jun retreated to receive the ball, Crewe passed the ball in understanding, and he turned around while receiving the ball, getting rid of the first defender. Then, he started to dribble the ball at high speed and drove straight in!

First, he used the shaking of his upper body to get past Liverpool's defender Harpy, who came to defend. Alonso then broke through defender Carragher in another veer.

At this time, the fans at the Allianz Arena began to stand up and cheer for Zhang Jun, they came here to see Zhang Jun's breakthrough like this, and even several people!

The first England midfielder Hargreaves to be broken through by Zhang Jun desperately chased back, and the whole world knows what the consequences will be if Zhang Jun rushes like this, and Liverpool is not willing to become a victim.

Now in front of Zhang Jun is a very young defender - the 24-year-old England defender Mark. Jones. A product of Liverpool's academy development, he had been on loan in the Championship before returning to the club this season and officially becoming an honourable Red.

It was his first competitive game for Liverpool, and he was now facing his first serious challenge – he had to guard against Zhang Jun or there would only be one goalkeeper left behind him.

"Mark! Stop him! Goalkeeper Kirkland, who was behind Jones, yelled loudly, and Jones struggled to concentrate and put all his energy into the upcoming one-on-one with Zhang.

Hargreaves was still in hot pursuit, and Zhang Jun naturally knew this, and he deliberately ran towards the young and inexperienced Jones, just so that he could get out of this unfavorable situation of hitting back and forth.

Jones saw Zhang Jun getting closer and closer to him, and he was a little nervous, not knowing if he could stop the world's best striker. And just as he was thinking nonsense, Zhang Jun suddenly changed direction, this time the change of direction was so sudden in the eyes of the inexperienced Jones that he did not react when Zhang Jun disappeared from his sight, and then he saw Hargreaves with a surprised face.

Immediately after, the two collided together.

Zhang Jun shook off all his opponents, and then faced goalkeeper Kirkland and shot with his feet!

Amid the sighs of the fans in the stadium, the football grazed the goalpost and rolled off the bottom line...... Zhang Jun is too much for angle.

Zhang Jun held his head in his hands and regretted it. The fans gave him warm applause after sighing, in their opinion, although the goal was not scored, Zhang Jun's previous series of breakthroughs have allowed them to see that Zhang Jun at his peak is returning little by little.

Hargreaves pulled Jones, who had fallen to the ground, up: "Are you alright?" Damn it...... He's so cunning! "The collision just now was not light, but fortunately both of them were in time, otherwise one person would have died now.

Jones was pulled up, and turned his head to look at Zhang Jun's back, he had never seen a person run so fast, he just blinked, and the other party disappeared from his eyes. This person...... Is it the best striker in world football today? Can you really stop him in ninety minutes?

"Too ...... It's horrible......"

Hargreaves, who was still complaining about Zhang Jun's cunning, suddenly heard Jones muttering next to him. Looking at Jones, who was a little distracted, he frowned, and his expression became serious.

※※※

For a first-time Jones facing such a big scene, it's normal to have such a performance. After all, the gap between Zhang Jun and him is as far away as from Pluto to the sun.

In the following game, Zhang Jun, who was supported by the whole team, became more and more active, and his dribbling breakthroughs and shots threatened Liverpool's goal several times, if it weren't for the desperate defense of other players such as Hargreaves and Carragher, I am afraid that Liverpool's goal would have been lost.

In fact, although Liverpool is only a League Cup winner, it does not mean that they are not strong. After a painful season, Rafael Benitez has successfully completed a reincarnation for Liverpool, who now have a number of young players in their squad who have won over discerning Liverpool fans last season and brought home a European trophy.

Twenty-four-year-old Mark. Jones, 22-year-old German right-back Andrey. Carrousse, 22-year-old England defender Calrum. Woods, 26-year-old attacking midfielder Jenas, 21-year-old Belgian left midfielder Van der Meeren, 24-year-old Brazilian midfielder Diego, and 22-year-old Irish right midfielder Paul. Kelly...... These are the future of Liverpool, hope.

In the eyes of the Liverpool media, this Super Cup is the first step in the revival of the Reds.

At the end of the first half, the two sides exchanged blanks, and Liverpool also had chances, but Fiorentina had more chances, but Liverpool's backline played too well, preventing Zhang Jun and Pazzini and Crewud from shooting again and again.

In the face of this draw, Sabato was not slow in the slightest, he was confident in his team, and if he continued to play like this, Fiorentina would score sooner or later.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Sure enough, Liverpool's backline finally collapsed after holding out for 50 minutes. This time it was Zhang Jun's assist, Crewe's previous breakthrough brought chaos to the Liverpool backline, and when the football passed to Zhang Jun's feet, the chaotic Liverpool backline had already ignored everything, and the hula went up three people, and now the rest of the place was empty, and Zhang Jun accurately passed the football to his partner Pachini in the crowd. The ball was passed so beautifully, when Pacini received the football, there was almost no one around him, as Italy's third scorer, he naturally did not let go of this opportunity and scored easily. Fiorentina leads 1:0!

The goal made the Fiorentina fans who came to the scene jubilant, while the Liverpool fans hugged their heads in pain one by one.

Yes, Fiorentina are too strong and the young Liverpool are no match at all.

Later in the game, Zhang Jun scored a goal that marked his return to form, a direct free-kick that drilled into the top right corner of the goal like a precision-guided missile, while Corkland barely reacted and watched the ball go in.

"The ball is in! This is the first goal of the new season for Zhang Jun! Who said before the game that he wasn't in shape? Don't give Zhang Jun any chance! Don't try to doubt him either! Great Jang Jun!! The game is over! Although it is only the seventy-third minute, facing such a powerful Fiorentina, facing such a powerful Zhang Jun! Liverpool have no chance, their defeat is a foregone conclusion! When Zhang Jun kicked the football into the goal, the commentator of CCTV5 suddenly broke out. There were many criticisms about Zhang Jun's bad state before, as a Chinese, as a Zhang Jun fan, how could he be puzzled when he saw this scene?

※※※

Although the narrator's roar is a little crazy, what he says is true. Liverpool, who had scored twice, had no hope of equalising and were impatient in the games that followed, allowing Fiorentina to take advantage of the opportunity to play a couple of counter-attacks. When the game went into stoppage time, Sabato replaced Zhang Jun with Morientes and asked him to accept the cheers and applause of the fans, and it was a perfect 200th game for Zhang Jun.

Fiorentina came out on top and found form with a direct free-kick and an assist...... No, he had never lost his state, only dormant for a while.

The lion dozed off a little, and the cats happily announced that they were the king of beasts, which was ridiculous.

After the match, Hargreaves found Zhang Jun. "Well, I know it's a bit presumptuous to be so intrusive, and we don't know each other well. But I hope you'll do me a favor. ”

"Help?" Zhang Jun felt strange, the opponent came to him, what could he help?

"That's right, Mark in our team. Jones...... Oh, it's that number 5, he's a great young man. However, today's game was the first time he played this kind of official game for Liverpool, and he should have had a good memory, but unfortunately he met you. Hargreaves shrugged.

Zhang Jun didn't say anything, he waited for the other party to continue.

'You saw his performance, he was terrible and he was substituted in the second half. I'm scared he's going to collapse, so I hope you can give him a little encouragement and comfort. ”

"But why me? I see you care about him......"

Hargreaves interrupted Zhang, "I wonder if it would be more effective for an opponent to praise his performance and encourage him to keep working hard so that he can find a new goal and rekindle his fighting spirit. ”

Zhang Jun smiled: "You want me to be the target and opponent of his struggle?" ”

"No, he doesn't deserve to be your opponent right now. As long as it can make him think so in his heart. Seeing Zhang Jun's smile, Hargreaves breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.

Zhang Jun looked at the Liverpool No. 5 who was wearing a vest and was in a daze not far away, and then nodded: "Okay, I know what I should do." ”

Hargreaves watched as Zhang Jun walked away from him, and then walked over to a frustrated Jones. It could be seen that Jones was a little surprised by Zhang Jun's sudden appearance, and he didn't react for a while. To Hargreaves' surprise, Zhang Jun actually took off his jersey and handed it to Jones!

You know, any team that plays against Fiorentina now, anyone will want to exchange jerseys with Zhang Jun after the game. Hargreaves himself wanted to, but he was too embarrassed to talk about Jones. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jun took the initiative to exchange jerseys with a defeated general, a fledgling boy!

Looking at Jones's stunned expression, Hargreaves was anxious: "Stupid! Take it! Mark, you idiot, what are you doing in a daze? ”

"What? Don't want it? Zhang Jun asked.

Only then did Jones react, and hurriedly reached out to grab the jersey and hugged it tightly in his arms, so excited that he even forgot to take off his jersey. So much so that Zhang Jun had to take the initiative to ask: "...... your jersey?"

Jones hurriedly took off his jersey and handed it to Zhang Jun.

I said...... Mark, you've done a great job, there's no need to be frustrated. I'm sure you're going to be a great defender in the future, so let's play again! ”

Zhang Jun said it very sincerely, and Jones was deeply moved, he did not expect that such a famous star could accurately call his name.

"I ...... I will! I promise! I assure you! The next time we meet, I will definitely succeed in defending you, and don't think about scoring in front of me when the time comes! Jones couldn't find any other words to express his mood.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Zhang Jun smiled and patted the other party's shoulder, and then turned to leave. Only an excited young man was left alone, admiring the jersey in his hand.

Hargreaves walked up: "Hey, Mark. Give me this jersey......"

Jones glared at him: "Don't even think about it!" This is what Zhang Jun took the initiative to hand it to me, and no one will give it to me! ”

Hargreaves rolled his eyes. This kid, if I didn't go to beg Zhang Jun, people would give it to you? Ungrateful!

※※※

Zhang Jun just comforted and encouraged Jones out of a sense of responsibility, but he didn't expect that his jersey would become one of the most precious gifts in Jones's life. At the same time, he did not expect that what he said would become a reality, and a few years later, the main central defender of the England team was named Mark. Jones.

The world-renowned centre-back has always taken to heart what Zhang Jun said to him at the Allianz Arena, and it has since become his credo. When his career entered a low point, when he was doubted by people about his strength, he told himself over and over again: The person who can be regarded as an opponent by Zhang Jun is definitely not a weakling! So, Mark, you're not a weakling either!

Of course, that's all for later.

Fiorentina won the UEFA Super Cup for the first time and gave them a good start to the new season. All Fiorentina supporters are convinced that Fiorentina are speeding forward on the right path these days, and that their goal this season is not to win the league or the European Cup, but to win the UEFA Super Cup + Italian Super Cup + League + UEFA Champions + Coppa Italia + World Club Cup = six crowns.

(To be continued)
