Chapter Ninety-Two: Comparable to the King of Balls
"Ringer's second goal, you see that he has his back to the goal, he immediately turns around and hits the goal when he receives the ball, and he can hit such a high-quality kick, his ball feeling is really good~~~"
At halftime, the painful commentary was blowing water on Ringer again.
Bobovic was pleased with the first half, with the team finding their form to turn the score, and the opposition also had an important player in the midfield withdrawn injured, and everything was moving in his team's favor.
At the beginning of the second half, Tokyo FC first played a positional battle with Al Ahly in Cairo for more than ten minutes, and we were leading anyway, so we were not afraid to kill time.
Around 60 minutes, Al Ahly Cairo began to look for attacking opportunities, and their head coach also used a second substitution to replace the attacking player.
The opponent pressed heavily and Tokyo FC looked for a counter-attack.
In the 71st minute, Cairo Al Ahly's attack went to the backfield, Takahashi Hideto and Zhang Xiuxian teamed up to break the ball, and then immediately transferred to the foot of Haseba, Hasegawa made an overhead pass to find Ringer.
"The gas team's counterattack~~ good chance!"
Hasegawa's long pass over the top, Ringer chased the ball on the left side of the front, stopped sideways on the chest, and then accelerated to the right with his feet, and shook off the chasing Cairo Al Ahli player Goma.
"Beautiful~Lin Jun~~ Single knife!!"
The other party was already pressed relatively high, and Ringer's stop and buckle directly formed a single knife.
Ringer quickly dribbled the ball into the penalty area, the opposing goalkeeper Ekrami chose to attack, Ringer adjusted a step, picked up the shot, and the ball flew into the gate guarded by Ekrami for the third time.
“Lin~~~goal~~~~”
"Hat-trick~~ Incredible hat-trick!"
"Lin Jun's goal killed the game, and with the defensive ability of the Gas, it is only a matter of time before he enters the semifinals!"
"Ringer ~ Ringer's hat-trick, he made history, he became the first player to complete a hat-trick in the Club World Cup, we congratulate him!" Pain's commentary is chanting for Ringer to make history.
"In fact, Ringer's participation in the Club World Cup itself has created a lot of Chinese football history. The first Chinese player to play in the Club World Cup, the first Chinese player to start in the Club World Cup, even the first Chinese player to score in the Club World Cup, but that was to be expected, and when FC Tokyo won the AFC Champions League, we expected that to happen, and if Ringer didn't score in the Club World Cup, we would be disappointed. ”
"But no one could have imagined that Ringer would set an even stronger record at the Club World Cup, breaking the record in his first Club World Cup match to become the first player to score a hat-trick at the Club World Cup, which is unique in the world."
"According to what we've just looked at, Ringer is really the only player in Club World Cup history to score a hat-trick, and if you count the Toyota Cup, the predecessor of the Club World Cup, and the earlier Intercontinental Cup, he is also the second player to do so."
"In the 1962 Intercontinental Cup, the Copa Libertadores champion Santos of Brazil played against the Champions League champion Benfica, the football king Pele who played for Santos scored twice in Europe to help the team defeat Eusebio's Benfica 3:2, and returned to the home stadium to help the team beat Benfica 5:2 with a hat trick, and defeated the opponent with an aggregate score of 8:4 to win the Intercontinental Cup that year."
"Pele is the only player to have scored a hat-trick in the Club World Cup (including the pre-restructuring Intercontinental Cup), and now Ringer is the second, and he has become the player who has equaled Pele."
Well, in the midst of the hype of this painful commentary, the game ended with a score of 3:1.
After a hat-trick by Ringer, and at the same time his midfield core had been injured and left two goals behind, Al Ahly Cairo played listlessly in the final moment, more like coping with the end of the game.
Beep~Beep~Beep~~~
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, Toyota Stadium turned into a sea of joy. Most of the people who came were Japanese fans supporting FC Tokyo, for whom they witnessed a great game, the first hat-trick in the history of the Club World Cup.
“Lingoal~~~!”
“Lingoal~~~!”
As Ringer walked to the sidelines, the fans were still cheering for his name, so Ringer remembered something, took off his jersey, and threw it directly to the cheering fans.
"Ah, my~ I grabbed ~ Lin Jun's jersey ~ hat trick jersey!" Ringer also heard shouts like this coming from the stands.
At the entrance of the players' tunnel, Ringer heard another shout: "Linsang, will you give me your boots?" Come on! ”
Ringer saw that it was a little boy halfway down the edge of the aisle, asking for his sneakers.
Ringer nodded, walked over and took off his boots for him, signing his name on them.
When the child grows up in the future, if he is short of money, he should be able to sell these shoes for some money.
The sneakers worn to complete the first hat-trick in the Club World Cup also have Ringer's autograph on them, and some people are willing to make bids.
At the post-match press conference, Ringer was undoubtedly surrounded by reporters.
"The opponent's number eight played very well and at the same time we were not very lucky, and that's why we lost." It was a brief conversation from Al Ahly coach Hussam Badri in Cairo, and I don't think anyone was interested in his conversation except for a few Egyptian media outlets.
Ringer could only patiently answer the reporter's questions.
"A hat-trick? I didn't expect to score a hat-trick either, maybe I was lucky. Anyway, I'm happy to have scored a hat-trick. ”
"Making history? The Club World Cup has only been in existence for a few years, and because of the format, there are still a lot of records to be set, and I just happened to be able to perform at this time. ”
"Comparable to Bailey? I can't accept that Pele is a deservedly good player, I've just played a few good games, and I'm still far from Pele and can't compare to him. ”
~~~
Ringer continued to maintain his humble style and not leave too much for the reporters to say.
※※※
The next day, Ringer's hat-trick appeared in the major media.
"Club World Cup hat-trick, second person after Pele"
"The Rising King of Asia, the New Benchmark of Asian Football"
Many European media have also reported on this matter, Ringer's small role is difficult to attract their attention, the recent reports on Ringer in Europe, at most means that several clubs such as Dortmund and Arsenal are interested in Ringer, and Dortmund is currently in the lead.
Britain's Sky Sports reported on the event: "In the first round of the Club World Cup this morning, Asian champions Tokyo FC beat African champions Al Ahly Cairo 3-1 at home to reach the semi-finals. It is worth mentioning that in this game, the striker of Tokyo FC, Chinese Ringer, completed a hat-trick, becoming the first player to complete a hat-trick after the restructuring of the Club World Cup. ”
"Maybe there are Arsenal fans who have an impression of the Chinese name, and it was only this summer that Arsene Wenger said he was interested in the Asian talent. But now that the winter transfer period is approaching, the Chinese have been linked with Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga, and Arsenal are at a disadvantage in the Chinese race, I think this hat-trick should attract Wenger's attention and find a way to bring that Chinese to the Emirates Stadium. ”
Meanwhile, in his office in Munich, Rummenigge, one of Bayern's Big Three, picked up his phone, with an Bild newspaper on his desk, flipping through a report titled "Hornets are about to bring in Chinese talent, Club World Cup hat-trick rivals Pele".
"Hi Thomas, how are you doing?" Rummenigge dialed his phone.
"It's been a long time since you've been to Munich, how about afternoon tea tomorrow afternoon?" Well, if you don't like the British stuff, I can treat you to a beer. ”
"Okay, that's it, see you tomorrow."
