I am the king of football

Chapter 267: The FA’s Instigation
Qin Hu's goal completely broke Braga's morale. When the game resumed, although there were still more than ten minutes left, the home team could not muster any momentum to threaten the Red Devils' goal.

Ed, who missed a one-on-one opportunity and a penalty kick, was substituted before the end of the game. He disappeared into the player tunnel early, as if he was too ashamed to see the people of Jiangdong.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the score was 2-0. Manchester United won again away from home. Their winning streak in the Champions League group stage has continued. Qin Hu's efficiency in scoring in every Champions League game remains the same.

The entire Red Devils team happily boarded the flight home. After arriving in Manchester, although there was a league game to play in a few days, Ferguson still waved his hand to signal for a half-day holiday.

During this half day, reports about Manchester United's 2-0 victory over Braga were quickly released. Qin Hu's performance of scoring twice and scoring his seventh goal in the Champions League attracted a lot of attention from many media.

7 goals and 2 assists, these are the statistics Qin Hu contributed in the five group matches. At the age of , he averaged a goal per game in his first Champions League season. Such an achievement is enough to rival Messi and Ronaldo. Everyone is watching a rising prodigy moving towards becoming one of the three major powers in football.

Although some fans of the two prodigies thought that the opponents Qin Hu faced were not strong teams and were just talking about statistics, most people still remained rational.

There are no weak teams in the Champions League. Didn’t you, Messi and Ronaldo, score more goals against some weak teams?
Does this mean that we need to make a separate list of goals scored against top clubs? What about Qin Hu's average of nearly two goals per game against Tottenham, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea?
In short, Chinese fans gradually discovered that even on foreign football forums, there were more and more people standing with them, loving Qin Hu and speaking for him.

As Qin Hu was elected MVP in every game and broke various records with every goal he scored, he has come into the public eye.

Whether Qin can become the second Ronaldo in the Premier League and become the top star of the Premier League, which calls itself the best of the five major leagues, has become the hottest topic.

This is inseparable from the promotion of the English Football Association. They have always believed that the Premier League should be at the top of the five major leagues in terms of ratings and revenue. However, the two most powerful and top superstars in today's football are in La Liga, which makes the Premier League unable to refute.

Now that they have seen Qin Hu's potential, they will certainly promote him vigorously.

Mendes even had a long phone call with Qin Hu for this purpose. He also accepted many interview invitations for Qin Hu from top British sports media, with Sky Sports being the first to receive the interview.

On the evening of the second day after resuming training, Qin Hu went to London and accepted an interview and interaction in the Sky Sports live studio.

In order to attract attention this time, Sky Sports even invited the alien Ronaldo, who chose to retire due to injury a year ago. This also brought great surprise to Qin Hu. He had no idea that Ronaldo would come before he met him in person.

For all forwards, Ronaldo is definitely a name that cannot be avoided, not to mention that Qin Hu even has his own talent skill card. Under the arrangement of the host, they sat in their seats and watched several scenes of the two passing the ball on the court with the audience.

"It's unbelievable, Qin is simply another me."

After watching these scenes, Ronaldo developed a great liking for Qin Hu. Due to injuries, he had not used Qin Hu's pendulum pass to wreak havoc on goalkeepers on the court a few years ago. Unexpectedly, this young man brought his famous skills back to life.

After the interview, Ronaldo took the initiative to exchange contact information with Qin Hu, and sent a lot of things to pay attention to when doing a pendulum pass. Faced with the concern of this senior, Qin Hu was flattered and asked for advice very humbly. At one time, many doubts about this breakthrough action were all resolved. Qin Hu's participation in this interview not only increased his influence in the world of football, but also earned him extra income.

When Qin Hu returned to Manchester United and re-entered the daily routine of the season, his breakthrough ability on the training ground had a qualitative change, which was naturally what Ferguson was happy to see.

Three days later, Manchester United faced Reading in an away game. Yes, it was Reading, Qin Hu's old rival in the Championship when he was at Hull City. The opponent's road to relegation this season was also quite bumpy, and now they are ranked 18th in the league and are in the relegation zone.

For Manchester United's upcoming away game at home, Reading attached great importance to it and deployed their best formation to defend tightly.

Unfortunately, they met Qin Hu, who used to be excited when playing against Reading. He could not help Hull City get points on the road to relegation, but he could severely suppress all of Hull City's relegation opponents.

When the game was going on forty minutes, Qin Hu had already performed a hat trick. He almost broke the mentality of the Reading team and caused one-third of the fans at Reading's home stadium to leave directly.

"He first changed direction at high speed and broke through two defenders before entering the penalty area. Then he used a pendulum to dribble past the goalkeeper and scored into the empty net. Qin Hu's first goal stunned everyone."

As the hat-trick player waved and interacted with his fans in the corner area, Zhan Jun summed up his three goals in the game.

"Five minutes later, he scored a header from a corner kick. The speed of the goal was amazing. Now he has scored a world-class goal from outside the penalty area. How can the defense stop such a well-rounded striker from scoring?"

In this way, Reading fell behind 0-3 at halftime at their home ground. Less than ten minutes after the start of the second half, hat-trick player Qin Hu was replaced by the substitute, and Manchester United entered the training mode again.

However, this time, in addition to Qin Hu's explosive performance, Van Persie, who had been silent for several games, also broke out. After Qin Hu left the field, he became the team's offensive core and scored two goals with his head and feet in the remaining thirty minutes.

In the end, Reading lost miserably 0-5 at home. When the jubilant Manchester United team left the Madejski Stadium talking and laughing, all that was left was a mess.

It is predictable what kind of painful experience Reading, whose morale has been shattered, will face when facing the hellish schedule of the Premier League in December.

But these are not what Manchester United need to worry about. They should cheer up and face the last match of this season's Champions League group stage in the new week - a home game against Cluj.
