That being said, but only Sun Jihai himself knows that he actually came here to watch the game with a mission.

If you want to talk about the tendency to support, there must be no doubt, Sun Jihai must hope that Qin Shou's Atletico Madrid will be the winner of the final final. Although he used to play for Manchester City, Qin Shou is also his Chinese compatriot no matter how he says, and now Qin Shou takes every step forward, it is writing a new history and record of Chinese football, and he is naturally more willing to see the Chinese raise the prestige of China in the European League.

Don't look at when he played for Manchester City, the team there was very enthusiastic about him, but this is also an isolated phenomenon, most people mention Chinese football, they are undisguised contempt and disdain, and it can't change the impression of foreigners on Chinese football at all. The older generation of Chinese players wants to one day change the world's perception of Chinese football.

They can't do it, but now Qin Shou is likely to become Chinese football, no, to be exact, Qin Shou has become a banner of Chinese football, who else will Sun Jihai support if he doesn't support Qin Shou, although he and Qin Shou didn't know each other before.

But so what, everyone is Chinese, everyone wants Chinese football to be good, his success is the success of Chinese football, and his glory is to win glory for Chinese football.

As for this "mission", Sun Jihai is a little dumbfounded, as Manchester City's image ambassador in China, he knows very well how this "glory" came about, perhaps because he has been in Manchester City for a long time, there is no credit and hard work, but the bigger reason is the Chinese market behind him, Manchester City is precisely because of this, maybe he was given such a "position".

This time I came to Calderón, because the senior management of the club got the intention that Atletico Madrid might intend to sell Qin Shou after the season, and wanted to explore Qin Shou's tone in advance.

A superstar of Qin Shou's level, any club with ambitions will definitely want to attract his subordinates. However, Manchester City is self-aware, although they have money, but when it comes to the status of the rivers and lakes, it is estimated that it is similar to Atletico Madrid, maybe it is not as good, so if Qin Shou wants to transfer, the first choice will definitely not be them, even if they are willing to spend money, Qin Shou is unlikely to favor them, so they want to play the "emotional card".

This card is Sun Jihai, in the eyes of Manchester City's top management, both are Chinese, it is definitely easier to communicate with each other, and Sun Jihai is also Qin Shou's predecessor in the Chinese national team, knowing with affection, moving with reason, coupled with Manchester City's Jinyuan offensive, may not be able to attract Qin Shou's attention.

Of course, it is estimated that Manchester City still has a small abacus in his heart, that is, no matter what Qin Shou's tone is, after Sun Jihai communicates with him, maybe Qin Shou will have some strange thoughts before the game, which will affect the state of the game, which can be regarded as a strategy to "shake the morale of the army".

"It's really a good calculation."

Sun Jihai sneered in his heart and shook his head.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Sun Jihai met Qin Shou half an hour before the start of the game, when Qin Shou was after a pre-match interview with a radio reporter, and Boggs led Sun Jihai to Qin Shou's side.

"Qin, your compatriot grandson came to the scene to cheer for you, you can talk. But it can't be too long, the game is almost underway. ”

After Boggs said this, he left, Sun Jihai has been in foreign leagues for so long, and he still has some connections, Boggs and Simeone He has known each other for a long time, plus Manchester City has made efforts, so he met Qin Shou before the game, and he was not blocked.

"Brother Sun Jihai?"

Qin Shou has never seen Sun Jihai in reality, but he has long been familiar with the other party's "legend", when he was in the national team, captain Zheng Zhi sometimes talked about the old group of national team members, among which he admired Sun Jihai the most, thinking that Sun Jihai was the best and most successful player in that group of Chinese players, and there was no one.

At that time, there were two Chinese players who could be called national heroes, one was Yang Chen and the other was Sun Jihai. Yang Chen has had great success at Eintracht Frankfurt and is loved by the fans there, but Zheng Zhi feels that although Yang Chen is good, Sun Jihai has been more consistent and long-lasting, and he has been playing overseas for the longest time, and in this respect, he is more successful than Yang Chen, and can be called a model for Chinese players.

So as soon as Qin Shou saw Sun Jihai, his eyes lit up, he enthusiastically reached out to hold his opponent's right hand, and said with a smile: "I have always heard that Brother Sun Jihai of the national team is the most successful foreign player, and he is our model and role model, and now I finally see the real person." ”

Qin Shou's enthusiasm made Sun Jihai stunned for a moment, and suddenly he had a lot of good feelings for the young man in front of him who looked like the big boy next door with a smile on his face. Sun Jihai has also heard a lot of rumors about Qin Shou, some good and some bad, and some people say that Qin Shou is a violent person with a strange temperament, but at this moment, Sun Jihai can only sigh that there are many celebrities.

Smiling, Sun Jihai replied: "Since you call me eldest brother, then I will call you Xiao Qin." Xiao Qin, don't say that, if you want to say that you are the most successful, you are the pride of our Chinese football now. This is going to be heard by domestic fans, and they will probably laugh at me as an old thing. ”

"Brother Sun laughed." Qin Shou scratched his head and said, "I debuted in the United States, and I don't know much about some of the old history in China, but in that era, Brother Sun was able to stand firm in Manchester City, which was really remarkable, and it really erected a banner for our Chinese football." ”

"Come on, come on, don't talk about these things that are not there, Zheng Zhi didn't tell me, Xiao Qin, not only do you play the ball well, but you also make a snapping sound? Ha ha! ”

Sun Jihai laughed, and when Qin Shou heard it, he also laughed out loud.

Because there was not much time left before the official start of the game, Sun Jihai did not chat with Qin Shou much, and as for the "task" assigned to him by Manchester City, he did not even mention it. He's not a fool, if others want to use him as a gun, does he really want to be a gun? And to "scourge" their own compatriots?

After a few words, Sun Jihai patted Qin Shou on the shoulder and encouraged: "Xiao Qin, every step you take now is to win glory for our Chinese players and Chinese fans, I won't say much, play hard, don't have too much psychological pressure, I believe you have truly become the banner and face of our Chinese football!" ”

"Okay, Brother Sun."

The two hugged lightly and said goodbye. Qin Shou walked towards the locker room, while Sun Jihai went to the VIP box under the guidance of the staff.

At 8:20 a.m., both teams were ready and appeared on the pitch, the home team wearing red and white striped shirts and the away team wearing black away uniforms.

Taking advantage of the gap between the two teams taking photos on the court, picking sides and other matters, the commentators on the commentary bench were also talking to each other.

"The first leg of this Champions League semi-final will be extremely important for both sides, and whoever will qualify will set a new record in the history of their respective clubs!"

'Manchester City's best result in the history of the Champions League was the round of 16 and now that they are in the semi-finals, that record has been broken. Let's see if they can go any further! ”

"Atletico Madrid reached the Champions League final in the 70s, and now they see the light of day again in almost 40 years to reach the final, and they will not give up. Of course, if they don't lose this game, they will be unbeaten in all competitions this season to 50 games, which is a new milestone in modern football! ”

"I'm looking forward to the showdown between China's Qin and Sergio Aguero, the former has equalled the record held by Cristiano Ronaldo for the most goals scored in a single season with 14, and if he can score, it will be a new record. Of course, the latter used to play for Atletico Madrid, so this time back in Calderón, how the Argentine golden boy can play, is also a big attraction. ”

"I'm still more optimistic about Atletico Madrid led by Qin, Qin's state is too good, in the Madrid city derby in a few days, Qin scored a hat trick in ten minutes, it's incredible to think about it! The opponent is a super giant like Real Madrid, not a cat or a dog! And this is Atletico's home again, at least this game, I am very optimistic about them! ”

"Manchester City are not weak either! They have a number of stars in their squad and the team's attacking power is among the top three in the Premier League! ”

"Then let's see if it's Manchester City's spear tip or Atletico's shield!"

"Yes, let's wait and see!"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Before the game even started, the Calderón Stadium was already jubilant, and the fans cheered for their team in the stands with great confidence and good expectations.

There were also fans who shouted "Welcome back, Aguero!" "Thank you for everything you've done for this place!" Slogans like this, although there are not many, can be regarded as a "catch-up" for Aguero.
