Chen Yingxiong scored a beautiful and representative header in the Villarreal game, which made everyone happy, but not the same ecstasy as before.Especially the Chinese reporters-they are now used to Chen Yingxiong scoring goals one after another.
At the beginning, after Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in the domestic league, everyone was very excited. They felt that "the morale is too high!"
Such enthusiastic words often appear in the reports of the reporters, and the readers are naturally very excited and happy, and feel that Chinese football is really hopeful!Good job Chen Yingxiong!
But when Chen Yingxiong scored one goal after another, when they scored goals for several rounds in a row, they went from the initial ecstasy to a very calm happiness-ah, he scored again, which is great !
That's all, there will be no such boring thoughts as "God finally sent an arrogant guy to save Chinese football".
Just like what the St. Petersburg media said: It is not news that Chen Yingxiong scored a goal, it is news that he does not score a goal.
The Chinese media also think so, and the blind worship of Chen Yingxiong in China is gradually cooling down.In the past, everyone was particularly fond of this striker who can score goals, but with the deepening of media reports and the fact that many aspects of Chen Yingxiong have become familiar to everyone, many people have also changed their views.In China, there are many people who cannot accept Chen Yingxiong's rules and maverick style. They have gradually changed from liking Chen Yingxiong to hating him and hating him.
For example, I hate Chen Yingxiong's frequent hangouts in nightclubs, hate Chen Yingxiong's arrogant words and deeds, and even some people are disgusted with Chen Yingxiong's self-satisfied front and back tattoos, because it reminds them of street gangsters... Although tattoos are from ancient times. It became very popular in China, and it became a popular fashion in the Song Dynasty...
Some people even put such a big hat on Chen Yingxiong's head-"...he has gathered almost all the bad habits and bad habits of Chinese football players that we know and hate: clubbing, showing off wealth, gossip, tattoos, Arrogant, low quality, lack of upbringing, poor education level, alcoholism, prostitution... Now I don't know if he smokes, takes drugs, or gambles... I think it's almost the same, and there is no difference between these three points. Such a person How can it be praised by some media as the hope of Chinese football? If the hope of Chinese football rests on such social dregs and scum, I think we should seriously consider canceling the proposal to develop football in China...Let such people become the national football team Hope? I can only despair more."
Of course, this article was written by Xie Liang... His unequivocal dislike of Chen Yingxiong has strengthened the confidence of many people who also dislike Chen Yingxiong. If such a famous person dislikes Chen Yingxiong, it shows that we are not that kind of minority Well, our ideas still have a market!
The extremes of Chen Yingxiong's character are also reflected in his supporters and haters.
People who like him like it very much. They like and tolerate everything he does, and think it is good.And people who hate him can't hate him, no matter what he does, he can find a place worth blackening.Everyone can find something to talk about from Chen Yingxiong, whether it is scolding him or praising him, no one will have nothing to say.
But Chen Yingxiong himself doesn't care about these things. He is in Russia and not in the country. To be honest, he really doesn't care about the attitude of the country towards him.Now he rarely goes online to see what fans think of him, unlike when he was just famous, he still hopes to satisfy his vanity from the fans' reaction to him.Now he doesn’t even buy newspapers—at the beginning, he bought every issue of newspapers, just to see how the media praised him and flattered him.
Now he doesn't do this, because he doesn't care what the media thinks of him anymore, and his status and glory don't need to be obtained by the media's touting. As long as he continues to score goals, he can get everything.

The second leg against Villarreal is a week later on February 21, and Zenit will go away to challenge their opponents.
For Pellegrini, this is the last chance. They must make a comeback at home and beat their opponents by more than two goals before they have a chance to advance to the top [-].
After the last loss, Pellegrini had many excuses - the weather was bad, the temperature was too low, the field was too slippery, everyone was out of shape, the pressure of the away game was high, etc...
What about this time?He didn't have an excuse anymore, but the pressure was even greater.Because the conditions are too good to lose.You are stronger than Zenit, you should win!You have to win too!
At the Love Song Stadium, a venue familiar to myself, the weather conditions are also very good. Although it is a bit cold, for the yellow submarine that has experienced the coldness of St. Petersburg, five or six degrees above zero is considered "warm".At his home court, the fans must support him, and there is no such thing as a bad atmosphere in the away game.
If you can't win like this... you all go to die!
The murderous Villarreal ushered in Zenit St. Petersburg who once brought them humiliation at their home court.
They made careful preparations before the game, and Pellegrini also tried his best to encourage their fighting spirit. He did not hesitate to play the video of their 0:2 away game against Zenit St. Petersburg, so as to motivate the players to feel ashamed and competitive. , I want them to complete the seemingly difficult revenge at home.
But it was the visiting team Zenit St. Petersburg who scored first...
"Andrei Arshavin!! His beautiful long shot broke the hearts of the Villarreal fans!"
"Zenit St. Petersburg has a 3-0 lead in the total score! The game has basically lost suspense, but the game time has only passed 10 minutes..."
"Look at Pellegrini's expression, it's really like a dead father! Two goals behind and still able to pull back, three goals behind? Arshavin's goal gave Zenit fans a reassurance If Villarreal wants to qualify, unless they win a 4:1 in this game, otherwise there is no chance!"
The hope of winning 4:1 is very slim. Even if there are many favorable factors at home, the strength gap between the two sides is not so big...
After conceding the ball, Villarreal went all out and attacked across the board.And Zenit simply shrank up and played a defensive counterattack.
It was not until the No.704 minute that Villarreal was equalized by Mexican striker Franco (Guillermo_Franco).After the goal, the Mexicans did not celebrate, and neither did the Villarreal players. The cheers in the stands of the Love Song Stadium sounded briefly, and then fell back quickly.
A goal was scored in 74 minutes, and many people's hearts were half-hearted-there were more than ten minutes left, even if there were 4 minutes of stoppage time, it was only 10 minutes. In 10 minutes, we had to score three goals in one go. Keeping the opponent from scoring... This difficulty is not ordinary.
Therefore, after Franco's goal, Shirgeevsky said happily: "I think Zenit has no problem entering the top [-]!"
Announcing this after the opponent scored a goal, it shows how excited Shirgeevsky, the St. Petersburg commentator, is.
Villarreal scored the second goal by Joan_Tomas in the No.809 minute, but it didn't help. It was absolutely impossible for them to score two goals in the last five or six minutes.
Although the hope is slim, the game was full of gunpowder in the end.
Chen Yingxiong didn't score a goal in this game because the opponent's defensive action was too big. Advocaat was worried that Chen Yingxiong would be injured, so he simply replaced him when the overall situation was settled.
No. After 80 minutes, the two sides moved more and more, with red and yellow cards flying all over the sky.
But what makes Advocaat very dissatisfied is that these cards are all aimed at Zenit St. Petersburg!
In the end, Roman Shirokov got two yellow cards and was sent off, and Hill also got two yellow cards and was sent off with a red card.This made Advocaat furious off the court-his team advanced, but lost two players. No one knows what impact this will have on the next knockout round.
Zenit received eight yellow cards and two red cards in this game. Looking at the statistics is more exciting than watching the game.
But in any case, Zenit finally successfully passed the hurdle of the Spanish strong team Villarreal and entered the gate of the UEFA Cup round of sixteen.
Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in the [-]th final, and his total number of goals in the UEFA Cup has now reached three.Ranked sixth in the UEFA Cup scorer list, not too high.His hat-trick vow has yet to come true, and now he has the chance to pursue it.
Advocaat was very dissatisfied with the referee's penalty after the game, but he didn't dare to say too much because he was afraid that he would be punished additionally-he is not a person like Mourinho.
He just expressed his anger tactfully: "What else can I say? I can only say-fortunately we advanced! This is the only good result!"
※ ※ ※
PS, the style of the game in this book should be like this in the future - more important games will be written and written, and the focus will be on goals.Secondary games are written in shorter lengths, only goals.And those games that are basically soy sauce, or the games that brush the data, will be mentioned in one stroke. Even if the hero performs a hat trick, there will be no more descriptions.
This is to avoid too much writing about the competition, which becomes a running account and is stereotyped.After all, Chen Yingxiong is a striker. It can be predicted that his career will be full of goals. If every goal is written in detail, this book is going to run to 1000 million words... Another professional player in one season Play at least [-] games, and [-] or [-] more games are also normal. Of course, you can't write every game.
I will write the important ones in detail, everyone will watch the climax, and I will briefly write about the unimportant ones. Everyone can just read Chen Yingxiong's data.
Don't worry, everyone, I know what should be written in detail and what should be skimmed, and I will definitely not make everyone feel that everything is water...
