Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Veterans Curtain Call, the Newcomers Rise!

A generation of giants will leave the court in this way, and the eighteen-year-old Tang Jue has scored twice, and he is on the rise. It is always like this on the football field, a generation of new people replace the old, and there is constantly fresh blood to replenish, so that football will always maintain a vigorous momentum.

Zero to two, with one less man to fight, Ireland is on its own. Domenech began to make substitutions, bringing on Giuli from Barcelona for Tang Jue. He kept Henry on the pitch to get him looking for a sense of scoring goals.

Thierry Henry was still looking for chances, but his desire to score was not very strong. He knew that the current Irish players were like a barrel of gunpowder that could explode at any moment, and he didn't want to be injured. Henry spends more time with his teammates than breaking through.

With ten minutes to go, Domenech replaced Zidane with Roten.

Mourning the soldiers, Ireland did not allow France to continue to extend the score.

The referee blew the whistle, and the battle of the focus of the fourth group finally ended. Zinedine Zidane and Tang Jue returned to the field and hugged their teammates.

Zinedine Zidane, who is known as a general, shook hands and hugged the Irish players. The Irish showed plenty of respect for Zidane and it could well be their last game against Zidane. The French football king has long announced in the media that he will retire after next year's World Cup.

Robbie? Keane swapped jerseys with Zinedine Zidane. Zinedine Zidane summoned his teammates to the French fans shirtless, and they bowed deeply to thank them for supporting the French team from afar without regrets.

"Zidane stays!"

I don't know which fan shouted loudly. More voices rang out, and the stadium was confused with a strong sense of parting. It shouldn't have been like this. Zinedine Zidane will not retire until the end of the season, and he will have to work hard for the French team to participate in the World Cup.

Roy, perhaps? Keen's sluggish back sparked sadness among French fans.

The players of the French team all looked at Zidane, some of their eyes were not very good, Zidane did not leave, how could they have a bright future, and how could the locker room have their own right to speak.

Zidane bowed to the fans again, and by the time he looked up, he was already in tears.

Some reporters kept this touching scene with their lenses. The next day, there were media reports that Zidane was changing his mind. He'll be on the pitch next season.

……

Rumor has it that it goes. Roy? Keane had a big fight with head coach Karl in the locker room after the game, and if it weren't for his teammates on the field, they would have had a big fight.

The next day. Roy? Keane revealed to the media. He left the Irish team permanently.

The media turned to the Irish Football Association for confirmation. The Irish Football Association confirmed the news. The Football Association told the media, thanks to Roy? Keane's contributions to Ireland over the years, Roy? Keane due to age. Fitness and energy are reduced, and they can't play well for club and national teams. For this, physically and mentally exhausted Roy? Keane applied to the Football Association to leave the national team.

In Roy? After Keane's application, the Football Association agreed to his application after careful consideration.

A generation of fierce players left the stage of the national team like this.

……

The penultimate round of Group 4 was all over, with the other two matches having ended with a 0-2 defeat at home to Israel; Switzerland knocked out Cyblos away at 3-1.

The results of these two games did not escape the predictions of the pre-match media.

With two rounds remaining, Switzerland and France are tied on 16 points, with Switzerland continuing to dominate the group ahead of France on goal difference. In third place is Israel, who are two points behind, and in fourth place is Ireland, who are still thirteen points.

As long as France can beat Switzerland away in their next game, they will top the group. The current situation is not the best or the worst for the French team. The key is the next match against Switzerland.

The next day's team newspaper commented on last night's game, and their headline: Don and Zinedine Zidane become key gentlemen, France beat Ireland 2-0 away!

They felt that Don's goal towards the end of the first half upset the balance on the pitch and tipped the scales of victory in France's favor. Ireland, desperate for an equaliser in the second half, could only attack from two flanks under the tight defence of Claude Makelele and Patrick Vieira.

As time went on, the Irish players became impatient. In the 25th minute of the second half, Zidane made an accurate pass like a scalpel, and Tang Jue used his super speed to get rid of Dunn's defense and shoot in the penalty area.

The ball bounced off Kenny's tenacious save and into the box, and Don jumped forward to give France a 2-0 lead over Ireland.

The goal sent Ireland in a spiral of death, and five minutes later, Roy? Keane knocked Vieira to the ground, two yellows and one red. Ireland could only play eleven with ten for the next twenty minutes.

However, the tenacious Ireland did not allow the French side to extend the score, and the two sides kept the score 2-0 until the end of the game.

The Milan newspaper Sport praised Tang Jue, saying that he is the leader of the new generation of French football. With five goals in two games, they believe Don has become the most consistent striker in the French team. They even mentioned the match between France and England more than a month ago, in which Tang Jue scored two goals.

Including the match against Denmark, Tang Jue represented France, scoring eight goals in four games, and his goal percentage reached an astonishing two. This is a terrifying number, and Don has become the first striker in the French team.

The headline in the Marca newspaper read: France wins over Ireland, Roy? Keane leaves the Irish team in disgrace!

The headline of the British Guardian is: 2-0, France has more than just a victory!

They believe that France not only scored an important victory in this game, but more importantly, they found a future. In the post-Zidane era, France's leading figures gradually emerged, and Don never used constant goals. Tell the whole world that he will lead the French team to the world of football.

The only thing that worries people is Tang Jue's age and the fierce defenders of Serie A. The age of eighteen is a disadvantage for Tang, who has the least experience in the French team, and his future will be full of thorns if he wants to take over Zidane's class.

The ferocity of the Serie A defenders was evident in the first game of the season, with Tang Jue almost falling to the ground in the first game. This kind of scene will continue, and whether Tang Jue can stay healthy is very important for his future development.

Germany's "Kicker" wrote: France has changed the status quo of weak forwards and will win the World Cup next year. France is definitely an adversary to face head-on. They now have not only Zinedine Zidane. There is also a Don with an amazing goal rate.

With a strong central midfield, coupled with the combination of Zinedine Zidane and Don, the French team has the quality to compete with any strong opponent.

……

Almost all the media are praising the French team and praising Tang Jue. Tang Jue's performance in the French team is indeed very good. A terrifying number of two goals per game. Let people not wait and not pay attention to him. There is no common appearance on his body. The adaptation period for young players to join the national team, and after joining the French team, they began to shine. Assault the city for the team. This is very rare indeed.

Another important reason is that as Ronnie and Zinedine Zidane and others are getting older, football needs great players to influence the whole world, and Ronaldo is definitely the most beautiful figure now, he led Barcelona to beat Real Madrid last season and won the La Liga title after a six-year absence. He was also last year's World Footballer of the Year award and the strongest contender for this year's World Footballer of the Year.

An era always needs a few superstars to hold up, and the media has seen this potential from Tang Jue, whether it is his legendary experience or his amazing performance on the field, Tang Jue may become a football superstar in the future.

It seems that overnight, Tang Jue has become the object of pursuit by many media, and Tang Jue is puzzled.

Is it so important to win over Ireland?

Pei Qiang's phone calls were almost blown up, and these were all requests for media interviews. Under Tang Jue's signal, Bei Qiang pushed down those interview requests one by one. Tang Jue believes that now is not the time to be interviewed, and so far this season, he has only played one game in Serie A and played two games for France.

It's only been three games, and so many media outlets have asked for interviews. Think about yourself this time last year, when you were still playing in the French Youth League. Time is truly a wonderful thing, and no one knows exactly what will happen in the future.

Tang Jue, a traverser, didn't know what would happen next year, he just wanted to control his own destiny and let his fate move forward according to his ideas.

The second round of Serie A matches will start on the 11th, with Milan hosting Siena. After facing Siena, Milan will immediately face the first round of the Champions League group, and Milan will face the challenge of Fenerbahce at home on the 14th.

There was very little time left for Tang Jue to rest, and he had to return to Milan immediately.

At eight o'clock in the morning on September 9, the day after the match against Ireland, Don did not meet France, but flew directly to Milan.

Starting on the 28th of last month, Tang Jue played three games in three places in thirteen days. The high-intensity competition, coupled with the fatigue of the journey, Tang Jue quickly entered the dream when he got on the plane.

The beautiful stewardess Patrick looked at the list of first-class passengers, and she found a strange name, juetan, which is definitely a name with Chinese characteristics, the French team just finished playing in Ireland yesterday, could it be that Milan star?

So Patrick decided to find out, and she pushed the service cart towards the first class.

Patrick loves football stars so much that she always dreams of meeting a football star on a plane or even having something to do with one of them. So she has a lot of focus on those young, handsome players. Tang Jue was not particularly handsome, but he was young enough for Tang Jue to enter her field of vision.

Patrick has been paying attention to Tang Jue for a long time, and she hardly lets go of any reports about Tang Jue. Tang Jue has a charming aura, and in his first professional season, he helped Saint-Germain win the double, won the top scorer in Ligue 1, and almost won the European Golden Boot.

For Patrick, these are fatal temptations. Patrick knew about Alice's existence, but what did it matter. As long as I like him and he likes me, then everything else doesn't matter.

Seemingly casual, Patrick pushed the service cart and walked to Tang Jue's seat. Tang Jue was in a dream, Patrick's eyes were surprised, she stopped her steps, and gently put a blanket on Tang Jue's body.

At this time, a traveler on the other side of the passage said to Patrick, "Miss, I want a glass of mineral water!" ”

Patrick turned around and made a quieter gesture. With a smile, he gave the passenger a glass of mineral water and said softly, "Please be quiet!" ”

The traveler looked at her puzzled, and she whispered with a smile, "Someone is sleeping, let's not disturb him." ”

After a journey of nearly five hours, Patrick didn't feel that the journey was long, but felt that time passed too quickly. She only went out ten times, and ten times she sorted out the blankets on Tang Jue's body.

The passengers in the first class felt that this flight attendant was different from other flight attendants, her service was more considerate, and she would come out to serve once in half an hour. Other stewardesses only come out once an hour to serve.

"Passengers, there are fifteen minutes to go to Milan International Airport, please pay attention to fasten your seat belts." The sweet voice of the stewardess sounded.

Tang Jue woke up in his sleep, he looked at the blanket on his body strangely, he didn't remember that he had a blanket when he slept. The old woman beside him said in English with an Irish accent, "It was the beautiful stewardess who covered you." ”

Tang Jue followed the old woman's fingers and looked at Patrick, who was reminding passengers to fasten their seat belts.

With a sweet smile on his face, Patrick walked up to Tang Jue, saw that Tang Jue hadn't fastened his seat belt yet, leaned over and whispered, "Need help?" (To be continued......)
