Chapter 36 The first confrontation between heroes and the media
Chapter 36 The first clash between heroes and media
Of course, Nalchixparta's head coach felt wronged - he didn't know that Zenit had such a role before the game...
Did he jump out of the crack of the stone?
Originally, Nalchiksparta's tactic was to counterattack, shrink the defense, and wait for an opportunity to counterattack. But now Chen Yingxiong is at the forefront and constantly uses his aerial advantage to bomb Nalchiksparta's goal, their shrinking defense has become full-strength defense. As for waiting for an opportunity to counterattack... it is basically completely gone. It is a blessing to not continue to concede the ball. How can he still have the heart to consider the offense?
During the halftime break, Chen Yingxiong became the focus of the locker room. Everyone congratulated him on his first goal, and Edvorkat also praised his performance.
However, Edvorkat did not intend to let Chen Yingxiong play the whole game.
He is in the goal of protecting the novice, after all, this is just Chen Yingxiong's first game. Edvorkat replaced him in the 63rd minute of the game. Panov finally got the chance to play.
Although Chen Yingxiong was unwilling to be replaced so early, he accepted the head coach's decision - he actually wanted to stay on the court because he felt that he still had a chance to score. He scored a goal in the first game, of course, it would be better if he scored twice in the first game? The hat trick was so cool, and he was happy for the senior year? He would just wake up laughing at night when he would sleep!
When Chen Yingxiong walked off the stadium, there was a burst of cheers and applause from Kirov Stadium. Zenit's fans were quite satisfied with Chen Yingxiong's performance, and this was a gratitude for applause.
Although they didn't know who this person was before, I believe they will remember the name "Hero" since this game.
"You did a good job, hero. But now you need to rest and don't use up all your energy in one game." Edvorkat met Chen Yingxiong who walked down, hugged him, and explained in his ear the reason for replacing him in advance.
"Thank you, Mr. Coach. Actually, I am from the Permanent Motion Machine!"
"Haha!" Edvorkat was amused by Chen Yingxiong: "Go and celebrate with your teammates."
Chen Yingxiong goes to the bench.
Denisov couldn't wait to jump out of his seat, and he stretched out his hand: "Come on, hero! Let's cheer for your damn goal! Yes!"
Chen Yingxiong walked over, reached out to high-five with all his teammates, and finally sat down next to Denisov.
"Hey, boy, how do you feel when scoring a goal in the Super League?" Denisov poked him.
"So handsome! Very cool!" Chen Yingxiong gave a thumbs up.
"That's right, that's how it feels, haha!" After saying that, Denisov lowered his voice again and lay down in Chen Yingxiong's ear and said to him: "I said... In order to celebrate your first goal in the first team, it is also your first goal in Zenit. We, the food, drink and play band, have a celebration? We originally said that we were going to hold the first event, so just merge them together. How about it? It's tonight!"
"Tonight? Can it work?"
"Yes! After the home game, the Dutch coach will start the holiday directly. Let me tell you that when we walk out of Kirov's locker room, we will be free! We do whatever we want, no one cares about it!"
"Oh! Not bad!" Chen Yingxiong whistled.
"At that time... good wine, beauties, food, do whatever they want. Fuck it, it's so cool!" Denisov said with great spirit, and Chen Yingxiong was fascinated by the fact that he had been doing asceticism for almost two months since he joined Zenit, and every day was a hard practice. I won't talk about his experience while hanging up. At least he was willing to do it. At the Yodeni Park training base, he was facing Ye Shengning every day. There were no beauties and he didn't even have to see big hair. His life was really bland.
I finally had this opportunity today. No matter what, I have to see the world of the northern capital of Russia!
"One word is certain!" Chen Yingxiong stretched out his fist.
"You are a puppy!" Denisov stretched out his fist and touched Chen Yingxiong.
The two of them lowered their heads and kept discussing where to play at night. They seemed to be completely unwilling to care about the game on the field.
However, Zenit on the court did not perform as leisurely as the two men on the bench. After Chen Yingxiong left the court, Narchiksparta's defense pressure suddenly became lighter. After Panov came on the court, he was the same as Chen Yingxiong at the beginning, and he could not cooperate with the team. But Chen Yingxiong had the obvious advantage of heading the ball, so what did Panov have? He had Krzakov, and Krzakov was younger than him and more familiar with his teammates than him.
The offense was a little confused and could not continue to put pressure on Nalchiksparta, so Nalchiksparta's ambition was ready to move. Now they were only one goal behind Zenit, which was completely within the category of equalization with one effort. This is the most likely score that makes the side behind feel confident.
On the contrary, Zenit, who was leading, seemed nervous.
I was afraid that the leading advantage that I finally got disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Then Edvocart had to make adjustments after repeated substitutions.
The 36-year-old Ukrainian midfielder Gorshkov replaced Spivak, the wing forward. The team changed the team and became a formation with three central defenders and one frontcourt libero, Al Shavin.
This increases the interception strength of the midfield.
Then Krizanaki replaced Xuan Yongmin and strengthened the defense on the back line.
After all this trouble, Zenit, who played at home, finally stabilized his position and relied on their home advantage to finally save the score.
With Chen Yingxiong's goal in the 29th minute of the first half, St. Petersburg Zenit narrowly defeated Nalchiksparta 1-0 at home.
When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Chen Yingxiong and Denisov finished the enthusiastic discussion between them, stood up from the bench and prepared to return to the locker room.
The TV-broadcasting camera gave Chen Yingxiong a close-up, and Chen Yingxiong also noticed that there was an additional cameraman carrying the camera beside him.
He pointed at the camera lens and motioned to the other party to take pictures.
So the cameraman turned around and the capital letters of "hero" appeared on the screen.
After giving Chen Yingxiong a close-up, the cameraman walked around and continued to follow the shot. In the camera, he and his teammates who were walking down to celebrate the victory. However, more often, the teammates came up to grab and rub his hair and congratulated his goal for bringing a victory to the team.
You should know that this goal is not a goal that is meaningless in addition to scoring data, but directly determines the result of this game, bringing the team a valuable goal of three-pointers, with a totally different value.
Professional players know what such goals mean for the goalkeeper. From then on, his position in the head coach's mind has become more stable...
As long as he does not perform much, the road ahead will be much easier.
"Beautiful job, hero!" Eric Hagen walked up and just raised his hand when he saw Chen Yingxiong hugging his head.
"What's this for?"
"You want to grab my hair, right?" Chen Yingxiong looked at him vigilantly. He was already scared by these enthusiastic teammates who swarmed up. Why do foreigners express intimacy and enthusiasm and always like to pull their hair and rub it? The camera is still next to me, and I took pictures of my messy hair, wouldn't it ruin my image?
The captain of the Norwegian national team laughed and then patted Chen Yingxiong twice on the shoulder. Chen Yingxiong grinned.
Captain Radimov also came up to congratulate Chen Yingxiong on his debut: "A very successful debut, hero. I hope you are not proud and keep this state!"
"Thank you, Captain!"
Arshavin also came over. Although Radimov was the captain, Arshavin had a higher prestige in the team. He smiled at Chen Yingxiong: "What an amazing change!" He still remembers that after Chen Yingxiong came to the first team, he performed poorly in training, and then he looked like a stray dog.
Unexpectedly, he is now a "hero" who scored in his debut and helped the team win the goal.
Chen Yingxiong also gave him a thumbs up: "I was so excited when I scored the goal, I forgot to thank you. Your pass was awesome! If not, I wouldn't be able to push it, ha!"
After seeing off Arshavin, Chen Yingxiong turned around and saw his translator and Russian teacher Ye Shengning.
Ye Saining stood at the exit of the stands in the distance.
Chen Yingxiong gave him a thumbs up, and Ye Saining replied to him a thumbs up.
One person suddenly hugged Chen Yingxiong's shoulder, it was Anyukov. "I said, don't let the reporters wait and worry, our great hero! Ha! Those reporters are waiting to interview you!" He shouted in Chen Yingxiong's ear.
Only then did Chen Yingxiong remember that he was about to accept an interview from the reporters.
He was only famous after being widely reported by reporters.
Unfortunately, there are all Russian journalists here, and there are no Chinese journalists... Otherwise, my parents would have known about him in China.
But... let's do it step by step. Be famous first in Russia, and then be famous all over the world!
In the mixed area, the reporters squeezed together.
When most players on both sides came, they only asked one or two questions and let the other party pass. When Arshavin appeared, the reporters were slightly excited. However, there were no more than five questions asked.
Everyone was waiting for someone, and they stretched their necks and looked at the entrance of the passage, like ducks falling on the pole.
Finally, the person they were waiting for came late, and the entrance suddenly darkened, and a tall and burly figure walked in.
“No. 99!”
"Hey! Big man!"
"hero!"
"Hero! Hero!"
The reporters rush to call, hoping to attract Chen Yingxiong's attention.
Several Korean journalists shouted at Chen Yingxiong in Korean, if this person is really a Korean compatriot, he would definitely stop in front of them.
But Chen Yingxiong only heard a burst of "Annie hugging Hasser" in his ears. He didn't know what it meant. The only thing he could understand was the sentence "Simida". This made him know the identity of this group of people - Koreans!
He turned his head and smiled at the Korean reporters.
Korean reporters thought Chen Yingxiong was going to stop for an interview, and they were overjoyed. Among a large group of reporters, they took the lead in asking questions.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong just smiled at them, but did not stop at his feet, and walked straight past the Korean reporters.
"So rude Smida!"
"Didn't you understand Simiga?"
"It seems that it's not our Korean Smithda!"
South Korean reporters were shocked and got together and started talking again.
When Chen Yingxiong walked to the core part of the mixed area, he was kept by the reporters.
"Hero! Hero, can you ask a question?"
"No problem, just ask!" Chen Yingxiong stopped and smiled at the reporter. Just kidding, I can't ask for it! But he obviously underestimated the enthusiasm of the reporters...
The reporters who received Chen Yingxiong's permission were like a reservoir that opened the gate to release floods. All the problems were swept by the surging floods, rushing out, and rushing towards Chen Yingxiong who was caught off guard.
“Is this your first official professional competition?”
"The information shows that you were born in 1988, you are only eighteen years old this year, and your nationality is Chinese... We are really surprised... When did you join Zenit, St. Petersburg?"
"Are you really Chinese?"
“How does it feel to help the team score a goal in the first appearance?”
"I noticed that you performed very well in the header in the game, but in other aspects it is relatively average. What's the reason?"
"How did you join Zenit?"
"Is ‘hero’ your real name? As far as I know, Chinese people... no, they are in the East, and there are few such names..."
Various problems were thrown at Chen Yingxiong.
Listening to Russian with various accents, English lingering in his ears, Chen Yingxiong's head was getting big.
He raised his hand.
The reporters didn't understand what he meant. Both of them calmed down and looked at him strangely.
"I'm sorry, mine, Russian, that one, not, very good, so you guys... say it slower!"
Chapter completed!
