Barcelona's 4-0 win at home to AC Milan was a piece of news that made Madrid's media sour and angry, but had to report it, even though they had already covered it in the briefest possible time.

The displeasure of the Madrid media, Zhang Desheng actually felt it at the post-match press conference, because another troublemaker asked about the sensitive topic of this region of Catalonia.

"Sensitive fart, the more you split, the better, hurry up and TMD!"

Zhang Desheng actually didn't feel sensitive to this matter at all, the more these European families divided, the better, just like the British family had better be divided into four or five like the original plane, that would be very happy!

He always felt that there were less than fifty families in such a big Europe, which was really too few, and at least it had to be doubled in size to be in the interests of rabbits!

But of course, this kind of inner words can't be spoken, and in the face of this kind of problem, he doesn't bother to respond most of the time.

If you really can't avoid it, it is also a way to maintain unity with the national side.

After this wave of limelight came out, Zhang Gongzi really stood in Catalonia.

But this will not be the best time to deal with the relationship with Xiao Luo, and he will have to be dried for a while in the next period.

Xiao Luo can indeed feel a little cold, because except for a few teammates from the national team who are closer to him, others are becoming more and more distant from him.

Even Messi doesn't mess with him now, he will follow Zhang Gongzi's ass with a bag every day.

In addition, Barcelona's coaching staff has become increasingly cold to him, most notably with fewer and fewer references to him in tactical lessons.

Although he is still a starter, he is no longer at the top of the core, and there are fewer and fewer tactics tailored for him.

This will be a brilliant performance that will successfully squeeze Maniche into the substitute for Iniesta, and even be more tactically valued than him!

Zhang Desheng soon got the good news, and on the last day of September, FIFA announced the 10 nominees for the 2004 World Footballer of the Year award.

The list was selected by a panel of FIFA experts and then voted on by public for the period from September 1, 2003 to August 13, 2004, just in time for the just-concluded Athens Olympics, mainly based on the performance of these 10 men in the four major leagues, the Champions League and the Intercontinental Cup last season.

The final ranking will be voted on by the head coaches and captains of all official FIFA countries and regions, as well as representatives of more than 200 media outlets, with each group accounting for 50% of the vote, and the final ranking date is set for December 21.

Therefore, whether Zhang Gongzi can reach the top of the world footballer for the first time is not yet a certainty, because the gold content of the Asian Cup is much worse than that of the European Cup, and his status as a Chinese player is also a minus point in voting.

This is not the first time Zhang Desheng has been selected for the 10-man list, he was selected for the final 10-man list in 03.

But in the final selection that year, he only scored 70 points and ranked 9th, with Raul in front of him with 80 points, Maldini with 62 points behind, and Zidane in first place with 530 points, which is actually not high.

Elected this year, Zhang Desheng knows that his score will definitely be higher, but this kind of voting situation is still not good for him, because there will be no fans to vote, otherwise he is not worried that he will not be able to reach the top.

But under the current selection mechanism, his advantage this year is only the performance in the Champions League, the performance of the Portuguese Super League is indeed lower, and the gold content of the Asian Cup is also not as good as the European Cup.

The biggest impact here is that there is a European Cup, if it is replaced by a year without a World Cup and no European Cup, his performance will definitely be Top1 without running

But in this case, with this voting mechanism, he is really unstable!

This is also one of the reasons why he wants to suppress Xiao Luo for the time being, because the Brazilian elf is his biggest competitor!

Originally, it was Xiao Luo who won the World Footballer of the Year in 04 and 05.

This made him have to help but mess with the other party, because this is not only a huge achievement in reality, but also a huge reward in the system.

The reward brought by this World Footballer of the Year title is enough for his Macau team to spend a whole year.

So, can he not be desperate?

In October, Barcelona beat Numancia 4-0 in the league and then beat Espanyol 3-1.

Zhang scored three goals in these two games, and his tally in league appearances has now reached eight, while his stats have risen to 11 goals and five assists.

This performance has made Madrid's media and fans even more blind, but it has kept the Catalan media and fans in a state of bliss.

On October 20, Barcelona played away against Ukrainian powerhouse Shakhtar Donetsk.

In this game, although Zhang Gongzi failed to continue the performance of scoring in every game, he still contributed a key assist to help the team retreat 1:1 away from home.

Naturally, the Catalan media continued to tout Zhang's performances as they won seven in a row in the league and managed to move five and six points ahead of Real Madrid and Valencia in the La Liga table.

Then in the Champions League, they also won 2 and drew 1, temporarily beating AC Milan with 7 points to top the group.

With such a team result, there is really nothing to ask for, which will leave even the most picky Real Madrid fans with envy and jealousy!

On October 24, in the league between Barcelona and Osasuna, Rijkaard specially talked to Zhang Gongzi before the game, saying that he could take a turn to rest.

This made Zhang Gongzi very satisfied, because the 27th is the international break, and he will definitely return to China to play the World Cup qualifiers like his teammates from other countries.

Barcelona can take the initiative to make concessions, which shows that they really don't want Zhang Gongzi to be a little dissatisfied, which is really offering him like his own father.

If you change the time, Zhang Gongzi will really take a break.

But now at a critical stage of his impact on the 'World Footballer of the Year', he asked for a half-time kick in the next game after assessing his recovery.

And this half-time goal cost Osasuna, who was in the relegation zone, half of his life - because Zhang Gongzi, who was bent on brushing up on data, scored a brace in this half of the game.

"9 games, 13 goals, 1.44 goals per game?"

After this game, Zhang Gongzi's increasingly terrifying personal data is really becoming more and more impossible to ignore.

This will not mention his performance in three games in the Champions League, four goals and one assist.

Just looking at the goal list and assist list of the four major leagues, at this time, Mintal of the Bundesliga is temporarily in first place with 6 goals, Lucarelli in Serie A is temporarily in first place with 7 goals, and Henry of the Premier League is also temporarily first with 7 goals.

Then, Zhang Gongzi, who temporarily ranked first in the scorer list in La Liga, suddenly pulled the number of goals to 13 goals!

Just from the numbers, you can also see that the top scorers in the four leagues are obviously different in grade!

At the same time, he is also the only player in the four major leagues to average more than "1" goals per game!

This is really too perverted, Zhang Gongzi is TM an average of 1.44 goals per game!

This kind of performance makes those who have the right to vote really want to ignore him.

Although the reference period for this vote is from September 03 to August 04, the performance at this time actually has a great impact on the actual voting.

At the very least, his phenomenal performance in La Liga this season can make more voters have an impression of him that is difficult to ignore, and it can also indirectly prove that his statistics in the Portuguese Super League last season are more valuable than expected.

Zinedine Zidane's performance last season has actually gone downhill, but why did he still get the most votes?

This is the aftermath that has accumulated over the years, and he intends to do the opposite.

After Zhang Desheng played the match against Osasuna, he got on a plane to Paris overnight.

Tomorrow morning, there will be a direct flight to Singapore.

Macau's first match in the second group stage was played away against the Singapore men's football team.

At this stage of the Asian qualifiers, the schedule can be described as smelly and long, and each opponent has to play two legs of home and away.

In this match on October 27, the Macau team played away against Singapore.

Macau has not played in the second stage of the World Cup qualifiers a few times in its history, so even if Singapore's strength is limited compared to Mongolia's, Macau's large group of players from Europe have returned.

That's right, this time, less than half of the players from the Macau team in Europe actually came back.

Shen Yi and Li Xiaobo did not come back, and even Kong Xiaochuan and Tu Guangtai did not come back.

This is Zhang's advice, as none of these teammates are indispensable to their respective teams, and if they return to Asia frequently, they are likely to lose their hard-earned positions.

Therefore, considering that Singapore's strength is average, mainly because the second squad of the Macau team is getting fuller and fuller, it is better to use more powerful players from the mainland.

It's also important to have these people play in the International A tournament and cut off their chance of returning to the first team.

After Zhang Desheng arrived in Singapore, he had a good night's rest.

The next day, he first looked at the first team's Group D.

It has to be said that this time the first team is even better than them in terms of signing, and the three opponents in the same group are Kuwait, Malaysia and Hong Kong, China.

The other team started their game earlier than they did, with the first team playing their first game during the international break in early October.

In that game, the first team played at home to Kuwait, and they dominated the whole game, especially with an overwhelming 18-4 lead in shots on goal.

But it's a pity that none of the strikers of the first team have reliable shooting skills, and they all give it in vain when they kick the goal.

It's hard to imagine such a big advantage, and in the end 1 goal was scored, and the final result was just 1:0.

However, the foot bucket still shamelessly hyped up the victory, as if he had no idea how important the goal difference was.

But the problem is that just 20 years ago, Chinese football lost the right to qualify for the World Cup because of goal difference.

It is difficult for Zhang Desheng to understand one thing, that is, why does the foot bucket always repeat mistakes?

China has a world-class capability in almost all areas – and that is the ability to correct errors!

For so many years, if a rabbit has made a mistake that has paid a heavy price once, it will not be repeated for at least the next few decades.

So, the foot bucket is really awesome!

Lie down and don't grass dad!

The Macau team has learned the lesson of the first team, and they are determined not to make mistakes!

So the tone was set before the game: every game, no matter how often it prevails, goal difference must be fought for as much as possible.

The attention of Chinese fans in this game is also higher than that of the first team.

But this has nothing to do with support, it is entirely Zhang Gongzi's personal influence that plays a role.

If the national support of both sides is calculated at this time, then before the end of this game, the first team relied on the victory in the first game against Kuwait, but instead increased the support to 63:37.

The starting XI of the Macau team in this game -

Frontcourt: Wang Xinxin (77, 1981, 180cm), Zhang Desheng (90, 1985, 183cm), Thiago (79, 1983, 181cm)

Midfielders: Yan Song (79, 1981, 181 cm), Zhang Yalin (76, 1981, 186 cm), Li Wei (78, 1985, 174 cm)

Backcourt: Zhou Ting (79, 1979, 181 cm), Wang Qiang (73, 1985, 184 cm), Wu Weichao (74, 1981, 184 cm), Zhang Shuai (78, 1981, 182 cm)

Goalkeeper: Cai Jing (71, 1983, 186cm)

In this starting lineup, Wang Qiang and Zhang Yalin are the new powerful factions they have attracted from the mainland, mainly because they have failed to be selected for the National Olympic team and the national team several times, so they simply switch their hearts to the Macao team.

At this time, there are actually many post-85 young geniuses in the Macau team, and there are several native players in this group, but most of them are small geniuses who have never appeared in the original plane, and they basically came into being under the influence of the system.

This group of players is also a lot stronger in terms of potential, but most of them are only 15-18 years old at this time.

Not everyone in this world has the talent to play at the age of sixteen or seventeen like Messi and Ronaldo, so they didn't have time to be on the stage in the 06 World Cup.

The Olympics in '08 and the World Cup in '10, that's when they came in.

Therefore, in addition to relying on F4 and two mixed-bloods, the current Macau team mainly relies on this group of mainland powerhouses around 80 years ago, who let them be at their peak at this time node in 06.

This can also be seen from their attributes, Yan Song, Zhang Shuai and others have already reached, or are about to reach their ultimate potential, and several of them have reached the realm of the 7th series of Great Perfection.

It's not that they don't have a theoretical breakthrough possibility, but the probability is too low and too low, and they have to have a theoretical breakthrough in the Europa League, and staying in the country is 100% locked in at this level.

But they can't go to Europe, it's not that they can't go, but the money these people make in the Super League is actually about the same as going to the second-tier leagues in Europe.

However, in China, they can win the championship, they can be the big brother of the team, the intensity of the game is not so high, and the living environment is also familiar, the most important thing is that their families are in China, you must know that many of them even have children.

So unless there is a real chance of gaining a foothold in the big four leagues, they can't leave it all behind and go to Europe to have such a small chance of success.

If you are injured in Europe and retire early, the money for the rest of your life will be wasted!

Zhang Desheng also knew that even if they went to Europe, most of them would not be able to break through, because it would be too late to go.

So he doesn't force these people to join the army in Europe, but he won't give them even a penny of investment, because it is completely worthless to invest their luck in them whose upper limit has been locked!

But like Gao Lin, Hao Junmin, and Feng Xiaoting, a batch of non-native demons born after 85, they naturally have to be sent to Europe early, so that they can adapt to the life and football environment in Europe in advance.

In addition to these young native demons, those who came into being were basically sent to the youth echelons of Porto and Manchester City.

Luka was in Porto's U19 echelon at this time, Yang Feng and Zhu Biao were in Manchester City's U19 echelon, and the youngest Wang Zhen was even favored by Real Madrid's academy.

They don't rely on their bosses to get into these youth echelons, but they really rely on talent to be valued and cultivated, and Porto and Manchester City are actually close to the water.

At this time, the Macau team, which is dominated by Chinese Super League players, has surpassed the Singapore team by more than one grade in terms of combat power on paper.

Under the leadership of Zhang Desheng, the eldest brother who can at least enter the top 3 of this year's "World Footballer", there is really no resistance.

In the first half, when both teams were full of energy, the Singaporean players could not withstand the waves of attacks of the Macau team, and were constantly ravaged by the two wings.

Such a gap is indeed too big, generally speaking, as long as there is not a gap of more than half a grade in strength, then in the first half, if you have the fighting spirit and are willing to work hard, you will not concede too many goals.

Therefore, this kind of defeat in the first half was like a mountain, and the rout situation of 0:4 in only half time can only be said that the gap between the two sides has reached the point where non-fighting spirit can be recovered.

Zhang Desheng naturally didn't play in the second half, but he only scored one goal in the first half, and it was a penalty made by Yan Song, and no one dared to punish him if he didn't punish.

After he got off the field, he was replaced by Gao Lin, who had a fight with the strikers on the first team.

This 18-year-old young player who is in the U19 echelon of Cannes not only has ball control and ball protection, has body and speed, but is also very good at making balls, but his shooting skills are worrying!

However, Liao Qimin did not let him go up to score, but used him to be good at holding the ball, protecting the ball, making the ball, and having a strong ability to break through and contain him, to play the role of a tactical fulcrum, to put it bluntly, let him cooperate with Thiago to maintain the firepower on the offensive end.

Zhang Desheng also has the same attitude, he secretly strengthened Gao Lin's ability to control the ball, protect the ball, and pass the ball, and at the same time help him strengthen his physical fitness, which will make him have a stronger tactical role.

Now the effect has already begun to appear, Singapore's defenders can't keep an eye on this big striker who can play as a winger, even if his physical fitness has not been fully developed, but the momentum of striding up with the ball has already lost the taste of losing Chris's slowness.

As for the last kick, of course he doesn't have to come by himself, and the Macau team has no shortage of strikers who are good at making a kick.

So after the whole game, the Singapore team, which didn't know that Gao Lin's shooting skills were worried, was actually overwhelmed by such a small general!

Thiago had already scored a goal in the first half, and in the second half, under Gao Lin's various balls, he took off directly and scored two goals, and he actually got a hat!

This made Thiago like this little guy even more, because his cooperation with Gao Lin was not only unexpectedly tacit, but even under the other party's containment and ball-making, whether he ran or kicked the goal, he seemed to feel more clearly than usual.

Zhang Desheng also watched it very painfully, but these two people are really very complementary.

The most fucked up thing is that Thiago actually broke through to 80 directly after scoring a hat-trick in the second half!

He actually became the first player in the Macau team to break through the 8 series in addition to Zhang Gongzi!

If you look at it this way, in another two years, just the combination of these two people (one is the first wingman in Asia who has Benzema's seven or eight key attributes except for shooting after strengthening + a poor version of the nuclear warhead with Shevchenko's seventy percent level of extreme potential), the forward line formed by these two people will be able to go sideways in Asia if they can't do it well.
