Spring was bright, and when Qin Xiong opened his eyes from sleep, he felt comfortable, and after a night's rest, he felt that his body had been fully recuperated.

But when he turned his head to look at the alarm clock on the bedside table, he was slightly surprised: 9 o'clock in the morning?

He slept about 9 hours a day, and he remembered that he went to bed last night at 10 p.m., which meant that he slept for almost 11 hours that night.

After the FA Cup last night, he didn't consume it strictly, so he thought he could sleep for 9 hours as usual and wake up naturally, but he didn't expect to sleep for two more hours peacefully.

He knew that this was a reaction of the body after a long period of exhaustion, and it had little to do with short-term consumption.

Grabbing at his hair, which had grown to almost five centimeters, he thought about the next nine Premier League games, the FA Cup semi-finals and the Champions League quarter-finals.

How high Arsenal can reach in a season depends on the results at the end of the season.

There is a chance to shine, but it can also be overshadowed, and even the 62-game unbeaten streak of the season can become worthless!

After 10 minutes, he got up and washed up and went to the gym on the second floor of the apartment to start his workout

At noon, Freddie asked him if he was in the mood to go to a high-end restaurant in the city for lunch, and he not only agreed, but also asked Freddie to make an appointment with a barber, he was not used to cleaning up his hair, it felt like a waste of time, and he felt that according to his face shape, the round hairstyle was very capable, which made people look very energetic at a glance.

After lunch. Qin Xiong sat in a famous barber shop in the middle of London. The most famous barber in the shop serves Qin Xiong. He smiled and asked Qin Xiong, "What kind of hairstyle do you want to cut?" ”

Freddie kept flipping through the hairstyle book on the side, and provided Qin Xiong with suggestions, such as the more handsome partial, Moxican, and so on.

Qin Xiong said to the barber bluntly: "Short hair, round inches, it's good to have momentum." ”

The barber smiled slightly, and did not feel that he was overkill, besides, there would be many celebrities in the store. Serving these celebrities is the way to keep the barbershop famous.

Twenty minutes later, Qin Xiong looked at himself in the mirror, the barber was still holding the mirror behind him, asking him to admire the hairstyle on the back of his head, in fact, there was nothing special, it was round, clean and tidy, and he belonged to the sunny type of boy, Qin Xiong had such a hairstyle that was more in line with his image.

In the afternoon we went to the training ground. Cesc Fabregas, Van Persie and others would have touched his hair like a teaser. Qin Xiong didn't mind, anyway, he didn't have a zài hairstyle that would be messed up.

Arsenal's preparations are starting to ease and it is already the final sprint of the season, and the point of training tends to be to ensure that you are in shape rather than over-exerting yourself in training.

Arsene Wenger has cancelled the team's training matches and he needs the players to maintain the "** degree" of the game!

In his first season in England, Qin Xiong experienced the difficulties here.

Here exactly and in Ajax are two rhythms.

In Ajax, there is no worries about civil war! The difficulty of dominating the homeland is low, so you can devote more energy to deal with the European war! Be more prepared.

In England, it's almost always game after game.

It's hard to prioritize, let alone sacrifice.

In the league, you can't lose a game, you can't draw, and even rotation is unlikely.

Especially at the end of the season, if you play against a team in the middle of the table who has no desire, it will be fine.

Playing against teams in the upper reaches who want to qualify for Europe, or teams from the relegation team, the game will be much more difficult than in the early and middle stages of the season, because the opponent's goal becomes clear!

This was the case in the 30th round of the Premier League.

Blackburn's strength on paper is much different from Arsenal, but Blackburn has the advantage of being at home, plus they are a relegation legion, and when the relegation form is still unclear, every point must be fought!

Arsenal eventually won 1-0 away at Blackburn Rovers in a thrilling scene, and if it weren't for Lehmann's courageous performance, violence might have been able to score points from Arsenal.

In the same round, Chelsea thrashed Crystal Palace 4-1 at Stamford Bridge to extend their lead to Arsenal by two points.

The win did not excite Arsenal.

At the end of the game, everyone asked each other about the result of the Chelsea game, and when they heard that Chelsea had also won the game, the Arsenal players could imagine how they felt.

Not only did not there be the joy of victory, but there was an inexplicable depression.

Arsene Wenger enlightened the players after the game, telling everyone that as long as the current momentum is maintained, even if Chelsea has been winning at the same time, Arsenal still has a chance!

There is also a direct league conversation awaiting them at Stamford Bridge.

With the FIFA match day approaching, Arsene Wenger told the players to pay attention to rest when they go to play games in the national team, and try to avoid injuries and excessive consumption

On March 23, Qin Xiong flew back to China and got off the plane in Beijing and headed to the Shangri-La Hotel.

Coming to the door of the suite agreed with Sylvia, he couldn't wait to press the doorbell, the door opened, and someone inside immediately dragged Qin Xiong into the room, closed the door, opened it again, and pulled the duffel bag outside the door in.

The young couple, who hadn't seen each other for almost four months, kissed unscrupulously in the room, and then rolled on the big bed

On the streets of Beijing, Qin Xiong and Sylvia were dressed casually and wore peaked caps, the two went shopping like ordinary couples, and after a day of rest, Qin Xiong went to the Xianghe National Men's Football Training Base to report.

The national team was reunited, and the training base brought together countless reporters from the domestic sports media.

The day before the start of the second round of the quarterfinals of the Asian preliminary round of the World Cup, Qin Xiong and Alihan attended the pre-match press conference together.

This is very strange, Qin Xiong has to appear for an interview with the media every time, which is a request from the Chinese Football Association, hoping to use Qin Xiong's fame and image to change the image of the national team in the eyes of the public.

When asked by reporters about the outlook for the game, Qin Xiong said calmly: "Uzbekistan has the strength to threaten the Chinese team, we have the advantage of the home field, but if there is no sense of ownership, we will have no advantage." What I mean by ownership is that the team has to be aware of what we're fighting for, to get into the World Cup, to make the fans proud, to show our strength, we should face every game positively, discuss this utilitarianly, of course, it's best to be able to enter the World Cup, but I always think that whether we can break into the 2006 World Cup or not, we should show the fighting spirit in every game, so what the result will always be discussed, but as players, We are worthy of our hearts. ”

When Qin Xiong finished speaking, a very strange scene appeared again.

The audience actually remembered the applause, and Qin Xiong seemed to have made a leadership speech
