Lin Yun walked up to Kante and high-fived him, "It's a good pass." ”

N'Golo Kante grinned, "But I didn't expect you to shoot straight away." ”

Lin Yun's shot was outside the penalty area, and he didn't shoot diagonally, but hit a curling ball at an angle almost parallel to the goal, and the football was equivalent to a 90-degree turn before flying into the goal, which was difficult and enjoyable.

Luka Modric, Alexis Sanchez and Wilshere all had some opinions about Kante's reluctance, but after seeing the ball, they had to write a word in their hearts.

"Eight games, four hat tricks, one solo four-yuan, Lin Yun's state in the new season is even more terrible than last season!"

"In the history of world football, there has never been a shortage of shooting machines that score goals, and there is no shortage of artistic masters who can play goals to the fullest, but like Lin Yun, there are very few who can not only ensure the efficiency of scoring goals, but also always play spectacular ......"

1-4, three goals behind, with about half an hour left in the game.

Although anything can happen on the football field, judging from the performance of both sides in this game, Dortmund basically has no possibility of equalizing, let alone overtaking.

The group stage is different from the knockout stage, and the results of the first leg are only points, and have no impact on the next leg, so Dortmund's struggle is no longer meaningful.

Of course, after all, it is at its home stadium, the opponent is an English team, and there is Lin Yun, the enemy of German football, in the opposing team, it is impossible to make Dortmund restrained, and in the next game, Dortmund continued to attack Arsenal.

Arsenal compressed the defensive line slightly, focusing on defensive counterattacks, and returned to Dortmund taking the initiative on the field, constantly bombarding Arsenal.

Dortmund's die-hard loyalists did not remain silent because the team fell behind by a large margin, but kept cheering for the players.

With the blessing of the fans, Dortmund became more and more courageous, but they still could not break through the door of Arsenal.

In the 70th minute of the game, Giroud came on the field and replaced Lin Yun.

Lin Yun walked off the pitch amid boos from the home fans.

Without Lin Yun's deterrence in the frontcourt, Dortmund has been even more aggressive, and even several defenders have frequently assisted forward.

In the 82nd minute, as Aubameyang scored after a quick breakthrough, the score was rewritten to 2-4.

This was also the final score of the game.

"With Lin Yun's hat-trick and an assist, Arsenal got off to a good start in the Champions League with a hard-fought win over Borussia Dortmund on the road."

"Lin Yun's Champions League goals have reached 34, and in just over two years, he has surpassed many historical super scorers who have been in the Champions League for many years!

If he can maintain the goalscoring efficiency of last season and score more than 19 goals this season, he will reach 50 Champions League goals this season! ”

Lin Yun led his teammates to thank the fans.

Some of these fans are from England, some are from Germany, and some are from other countries who have come to support Arsenal, so it can be said that they are the most die-hard of the dead.

The Dortmund fans played the role of 12th man well throughout the game, and the voices of the Arsenal fans were barely heard, which shows how much pressure they were under.

At this moment, these pressures have turned into the joy of victory, and then they are vented fiercely.

Everyone shouted the team's slogan, sang the team song, jumped and jumped, and celebrated passionately.

Lin Yun took off his jersey and threw it fiercely into the stands, causing a scramble.

Post-match press conference.

Jurgen Klopp praised Arsenal's performance, but also said that Dortmund's defeat today was just a bit of bad luck.

'Borussia Dortmund dominated most of the 90 minutes, with more possession and more shots on goal than their opponents, but Arsenal played more efficiently and there was no denying the element of luck......

In this regard, Wenger only smiled slightly, and generously did not bother with him, "Dortmund are indeed more active, and their fans are also excited, but football matches are about the score, not about possession and shots, and not who is louder. ”

"Speaking of fans, Hello Lin, why are you provoking the home fans?"

"They were very emotional and shouted loudly, I didn't understand German, but I knew they said something very bad and I didn't like it, it's as simple as that."

"Lin, hello, I'm a reporter from German TV 2, I want to mention your first goal, you deliberately handed the ball to your right foot when you could shoot on goal, why is that?"

"I'm practising my non-dominant foot and I want it to find some scoring sensations......"

Everyone looked sideways.

You can already be crowned king with one left foot, and you still want to practice your right foot? Lose your marbles? You don't want to leave anyone else alive at all, do you?

Arsene Wenger proudly said: "Yes, even if it has been so good, Lin has never stopped trying, he has been improving, you know, before the World Cup, even when the World Cup was going on, his free-kicks were not so good, and now, uh-huh, I think Arsenal have their own Beckham ......"

In the past, "Arsenal's Beckham" could definitely be regarded as a compliment, but now putting this title on Lin Yun is somewhat modest.

Especially what happened after returning to England, Lin Yun completely surpassed Xiaobei and became the first person in England in the true sense of the word.

Knighted!

After leading the team to win the World Cup, the people's call for Lin Yun to be knighted remained high, and it was naturally impossible for the royal family to turn a blind eye.

Shortly after Arsenal's victory over Borussia Dortmund, the royal family announced the list of recipients of the Order of the British Empire this year, and Lin Yun was prominently listed.

"Throughout the history of English football, there are very few footballers who can be knighted, most of them are responsible for England's victory in the World Cup on home soil in 1966, and even if you include coaches, only a dozen people can make it to this list.

Bobby Charlton, Stanley Matthews, Bobby Robson, Geoff Hearst, Tom Finney, Matt Busby, and of course, Alex Ferguson, who we are most familiar with.

However, there are also cases where a footballer who is not a citizen of the United Kingdom or the Commonwealth Kingdom can be knighted, and that person is the football king Pele.

As for why Maradona, who is also the king of the ball, failed to be knighted, everyone understands.

In addition to these people, there is another football legend who has been on the road to becoming a knight, and he is David Beckham.

In fact, Xiaobei was awarded the OBE (Order of Officials) in 2003, but 11 years have passed, and he has never been able to go further.

Once upon a time, extramarital affairs and various scandals never left Beckham, from his own assistant to the daughter of a Dutch diplomat, to his daughter's governess, heartthrobs did not refuse.

But suddenly one day, all the similar lace disappeared, and Beckham began to create a good husband who loved his family, and it was no longer his lace that appeared in newspapers and television, but news that he became a UNICEF ambassador and the face of a charity.

Behind this change is that Beckham wants to create a good man's warm and charitable character in exchange for the favor of the royal honor committee, so that the queen's sword will be on his shoulder as soon as possible.

This year, however, HMRC determined that David Beckham had avoided millions of pounds in taxes by investing in Ingenious Media.

In the same year, the Spanish tax department also found out that Xiaobei had used outsourcing portrait rights to avoid taxes.

The revelation of the tax evasion scandal has filled Beckham's road to knighthood with more ups and downs, and even far away.

And now, the eighteen-year-old Lin Yun has come from behind, and only two years after his debut, he has achieved the dream that Beckham has been chasing, I have to say, this is a great irony, but considering the World Cup results of the two, I think such a result is also expected by everyone......

On September 20, in the fifth round of the Premier League, Arsenal played against Aston Villa, Lin Yun made a pass and a shot, Sanchez scored twice, Arsenal scored three goals to beat the opponent, and the next day, Hodgson, Lin Yun, Gerrard and Rooney went to Buckingham Palace together to receive the knighthood awarded by Elizabeth II.

There are five levels of the Order of the British Empire, from highest to lowest, they are the Grand Cross of the Order of the Order of the United Kingdom (GBE), the Order of the Order of the Command (KBE/DBE), the Order of the United Kingdom (CBE), the Order of the Order of the Officers (OBE) and the Order of the Order of the Order of the Empire (MBE).

However, only citizens of the United Kingdom or Commonwealth Realms who have been awarded the Grand Cross of the Order of the Order (GBE) or the Order of the Commonwealth (KBE) are considered knighthoods, and can add the title "Sir/Dame" before their English name, or the title "Sir So-and-so" after their Chinese name, which is what we call "Sir XX".

That's why Becky is tirelessly pursuing a further one, because he has now received only the OBE, a fourth-class knighthood, and cannot be called a knight.

And Ferguson obtained the KBE, so he also received the knighthood.

Regarding which medal Lin Yun should receive, there has been a lot of debate on the Internet.

For fanatical football fans, it is natural to directly cap and give him a GBE, but there are also a large number of voices who believe that no matter how great Lin Yun's contribution to English football is, one KBE will be the sky, and even one CBE is enough.

After all, Ferguson, Bobby. Charlton and the others are just KBE, and they are upgraded step by step.

You must know that GBE and KBE medals are limited, the former cannot exceed 100 from creation to completion, and the latter cannot exceed 845, the difference can be imagined.

"I guess it's GBE!" Rooney leaned into Lin Yun's ear and said, "You are the first person in the history of the World Cup!" Much better than Ferguson! ”

"Impossible," Gerrard next to him shook his head, "KBE, unless you can win the European Championship again, or defend the World Cup, you can only be promoted to GBE." ”

Gerrard was awarded the Order of Merit back in 2006, but his rank is one level lower than Beckham's, and it is also the lowest level in the British five-class order sequence.

Compared to their ease, it was coach Roy Hodgson who was the most nervous.

The old man never dreamed that he would have a day to honor his ancestors when he was old.

He patted Lin Yun's shoulder gratefully, "Lin, believe me, you will be crowned GBE sooner or later." ”

Lin Yun loosened his bow tie, the feeling of his neck being strangled made him very awkward, and he even looked a little impatient to speak, "Besides, by the way, has there ever been a GBE in the sports world?" ”

"Well, I don't think so, because it's really hard."

"What about the European Cup + World Cup?"

"It's a possibility."

"What about three World Cups?"

“…… Trust me, you can be king if you want. ”

Lin Yun glanced at the 88-year-old grandmother and shuddered......

In a whisper, the ceremony soon began.

The little fat fart stepped forward, and the queen tapped him on the shoulder with her sword, and helped him put the medal on herself.

Order of the Order of the Officers (OBE), 4th degree.

Then there was Gerrard, who did the double jump and was awarded the Order of Command (CBE) at the third level.

The third was Hodgson, whom the Queen spoke to cordially, and then, with trembling hands, helped him to put on the Order of the Officer.

Lin Yun stepped forward.

Elizabeth II wore reading glasses, and she had to squint her eyes to see Lin Yun's appearance clearly.

"Thank you for your contribution to English football, boy, can I make a small request?"

"Absolutely."

"Well, I would also like to see England win the European Championship, a third World Cup, a fourth World Cup ......"

Lin Yun almost threw her a roll of his eyes, "It's really a small request......

In everyone's applause, the grandmother helped Lin Yun wear the medal.

Sure enough, it was the second class, the Order of the Commander of the Order of the Order of the Order (KBE).

That's on par with Alex Ferguson.

After the ceremony, Arsenal travelled to White Hart Lane to take on Tottenham Dortham Hotspur for their first north London derby of the season.

Kane reached out and shook his hand, "Congratulations, Sir Lin." ”

"Come on, fight to become Harry the year after. Sir Kane. ”

The year after 2016, the European Championship started, and if England won the championship, maybe there would really be a few more MBE and OBE gods.

Kane said depressedly, "That might be a little hard......"

He only established himself at Tottenham Hotspur last season, and Hodgson didn't recruit him to the national team in the European Championship qualifiers at all. It's hard, it's hard.

Players from both sides enter the pitch.

Because of the World Cup, Lin Yun was warmly welcomed by the fans, and in the stands of the Tottenham team, there were even many people wearing Lin Yun's No. 9 shirt.

Of course, it's the jersey of the national team.

Wilshere, Luke. Xiao and the others watched this scene enviously.

are also members of the world championship team, and they don't have this kind of treatment for Mao?

Lin Yun himself felt incredible.

Tottenham fans have seen any virtues, and they are definitely the kind that they want to eat him alive.

He had to wave his hand towards the stands on all sides, but unexpectedly it caused even more cheers.

Lineker said that he would see you for a long time, "Friends, you read that right, this is indeed the sixth round of the Premier League Arsenal away against Tottenham Hotspur! Lin Yun received a round of applause from the Tottenham fans, oh, sorry, now I'm going to call Sir Lin Yun......"
