171 The Football Association that took the blame

However, sooner or later, someone will come out to take the blame, so naturally this pot will be thrown to the Football Association.

So the Football Association once again issued a statement, saying that the national football team will pay bonuses if they win the next game. 100,000 per person.

The purpose of this statement is to suppress the momentum of the loss and tell the fans that they are still thinking about the national football team.

However, Sun Xiang did not respond to his question, and they did not seem to plan to do so.

"They should know what will happen if Sun Xiang is revoked from playing for the national football team. In terms of results, lineup, and strength. I want to say that they will not let Sun Xiang lose anything by doing this, and the saddest thing is the fans. It is not easy for such a leader to appear, and they will be disappointed if they are not qualified to play for the national football team. Let's not talk about what happened here, but I think if the Football Association is really for the development of Chinese football, it should invite Sun Xiang back, which is necessary for the revival of Chinese football! ”

After that game, a well-known football column invited the older generation of national football celebrities, Asia's No. 1 striker Hao Haidong. As soon as he came up, Hao Haidong criticized the local national football team.

"You should have seen that the game of the national football team and the game of Arsenal are completely a microcosm, a microcosm with or without Sun Xiang in it. Arsenal, with Sun Xiang as the core, has been very stable so far, and they are also moving towards the league title after 15 years of absence. So far, they're doing well. ”

"On the other hand, the national football team, Yu Dabao was injured and failed to enter the squad, and the lack of this 'anti-Korean hero' made the national football team suffer a heavy blow again. The chaotic frontcourt attack seems to the South Korean team to be like a small fight, but it is South Korea's several cooperation that can easily tear apart the defense of the national football team. The outlook is truly worrying. ”

"The prosperity and strength of a country depends not only on military and financial strength, but also in all aspects. Now there are two choices in front of the national football team. Either they will select new players from the league themselves, but then they will miss the 2022 World Cup; Either he has the cheekiness to untie the 'lock' on Sun Xiang's body. The selector for these is in contact with the Football Association. ”

Hao Haidong's words expressed the hearts of thousands of fans in the past, who hoped that Sun Xiang could appear on the field of international competitions. However, at present, there is no hope for the Asian Cup.

The deadline for entries for the Asian Cup was due a few days ago, and until the last second, hopeful fans still didn't see Sun Xiang's name in the squad, and they had to accept the fact.

The first game was lost, which is reasonable and expected, and the bombardment of the fans is nothing more than dissatisfaction with the national football team for not calling Sun Xiang.

Then Sun Xiang scored twice in the game against Manchester City, which made fans feel like "smelling the snow through the window, like the end of the world".

But that's not all, Sun Xiang scored another goal in the FA Cup against Brighton to help the team beat their opponents 2:3 away to advance to the fifth round, while the national football team lost 1:2 to Iran. They are already bottom of the group after two defeats and will need to win their next game against Qatar if they are to progress.

At this time, the call for support for Sun Xiang's return to the national team became higher and higher, and some people even came to the door of the Football Association to protest, but compared with the noisy door, there was no popularity in the dead door.

In the office of the Football Association, the chairman was sweating profusely with anxiety.

The protests outside the window were loud and loud, but the guards did not dare to suppress them, and the police could only calm the crowd.

But they knew that there was no way to solve the problem at all, and only by bringing Sun Xiang back could they feel at ease.

Looking at the chairman with an anxious face, Zhang Biao didn't know what to do.

...................................................................................

Arsenal's league opponent after 3 days is the weak Aston Villa, so Wenger also took this opportunity to take a holiday for some of the team's permanent main players, and Sun Xiang is among them.

Moreover, Dort striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has already confirmed his arrival in the team and has undergone a medical examination; His former team-mate, Mkhitaryan, who previously played for Manchester United, also donned the number seven shirt left by Alexis Sanchez, and the two former Dortmund team-mates were reunited in the Premier League.

So the next game should be the debut of these two players.

After having a vacation, Sun Xiang got on a plane to Germany with Mendes.

The next day was the day when Sun Xiang filmed a promotional video for Puma.

This is Sun Xiang's first time facing the camera, and he still has some resistance to facing the camera without much shooting experience. Just as at the beginning of the season, the FA asked teams to shoot the animation of the players' appearances, and Sun Xiang filmed it four or five times.

"It's okay, just relax, just like you normally do." The photographer said to Sun Xiang.

The content of this shooting is to let Sun Xiang hold a new Puma O combat boots, and then wear them to shoot.

Actually, it's that simple, that's why I said it's like playing football normally.

The sneakers are out of the closet, this pair of sneakers is designed separately for Sun Xiang, and it has nothing to do with the color scheme of the new issue. Puma separately made Chinese red sneakers for Sun Xiang, with gold laces, soles and colors.

A sneaker symbolizing the Chinese flag is in Sun Xiang's hand at the moment.

Sun Xiang looked at this unique pair of sneakers, which were the only ones of this kind, and he couldn't help but smile slightly when he thought of this.

And he didn't expect that the camera was silently turned on at this moment.

It's Mendes' arrangement, and it's often better in this case than on purpose. It's like "snapping is always the most natural".

"Alright Sun, put it on, let's get started." Said the videographer.

"Huh? Put on? Shouldn't there be one more step? Sun Xiang asked.

"It's already been filmed, I can't think of it. Okay, let's move on to the next step. The cameraman said as he shifted the camera to a different position.

On the other side of the camera, there is a standard goal.

'There's no one to defend, all you have to do is take the ball and shoot. Do you understand? The cameraman came over and said.

"Understood.... bar. ”

"It doesn't matter what you want to do before you shoot, we'll capture it. Forget about us, it's just you on the pitch now! Before leaving, he patted Sun Xiang on the shoulder.

But even so, in the next hour, Sun Xiang tried different shooting methods and dribbled the ball, but he always felt that something was missing, including the feeling of shooting at the end was not very good.

"Sun, what do you think is the problem?" Mendez stepped forward and asked.

Sun Xiang shook his head, he didn't know the reason, but it was very awkward.

Mendes looked at it several more times, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "Sun! I seem to know what the problem is! ”

He brought in the cameraman and whispered something in his ear, and the photographer nodded in agreement.

"What are you talking about?" Sun Xiang asked suspiciously.

"Sun, you get back on the pitch like you normally do when you take a corner!" Mendez said excitedly. Apparently the idea excites him.

"What are you going to do?" Sun Xiang walked back to the front of the forbidden area.

"Sun, where you used to stand when you played in midfield, now you stand!" He shouted as he pulled his neck.

When you used to play in midfield? Isn't that standing in front of the penalty line?

Sun Xiang was like a second monk who was confused, but he still did it.

"And then Jorge?"

"Tee off!" Just as Sun Xiang was asking, a ball was kicked high from near the corner area.

Sun Xiang, whose attention was still on the sidelines, suddenly saw the football, and he subconsciously ran backwards to the point where the ball fell in his opinion.

At this moment, because he was defenseless, he subconsciously handled the ball in his own way like a game.

If there is a way he is most familiar with in this position, it is a direct volley from outside the box. And this is also Sun Xiang's famous stunt!

On the periphery of the penalty area, facing the falling ball, the non-stop ball is directly a volley, and the ball kicks the goal crossbar and smashes into the goal!
