Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Chapter 452 The First Chinese Player to Appear in the Champions League

"This..." Lan

"Goal!"

"Cole scored with a super long kick from his own half!"

"A huge chorus of boos erupted from the stadium! Sporting Lisbon fans are extremely unhappy with this goal!"

"How did the referee officiate?"

"The Sporting Lisbon players were complaining, and Ronaldinho rushed excitedly toward Cole. Yaya Touré, Guardiola, Imbula, Kaká, Barzagli, and the Sporting Lisbon players all gathered around him."

"There was definitely something wrong with that ball. Arsenal players went down and gave up on the game, surrounding Duncan."

"Deng Kai, concerned about Vieira's health, proactively inquired about her condition and even offered to help her."

"The replay is on the big screen, and through this footage we can see that the referee intended to signal a pause in the game, but Parlour interrupted the referee."

"So according to the rules of the game, the game is still ongoing, and Cole's shot was not a problem."

"But from a humanitarian perspective, Cole's actions were somewhat inappropriate. After all, it was his teammate who was lying on the ground groaning and indicating that he was injured..."

"The referee points to the center circle, indicating the goal is valid! 3-1, Arsenal have extended their lead to two goals again."

"This was a mistake by the referee, but Sporting Lisbon will have to bear the consequences."

"I believe the referee will apologize to Sporting Lisbon after the match, but it won't make a difference."

"In the intense group stage of the round of 16, every goal is crucial." - Lan

"This goal could very well be the turning point of the match."

Huang Jianxiang was so angry his liver hurt.

But he also knew that there was really no way to undo such a low-probability event.

The reason why the phrase "misjudgments are part of the game" is so harsh yet still circulates in the football world is because there is no solution to this situation.

On the pitch, Arsenal protected Cole, and the atmosphere was tense, but no real fight broke out.

Because Arsenal knew they were in a morally disadvantageous position in this situation.

"He's still young, he's just a child," Vieira said to Duncan.

Deng Kai nodded: "I understand that, but you need to see more from how Cole treats you. Everything that just happened is right before our eyes."

"Your players surrounded me, but the referee didn't blow the whistle, yet my teammates were all gathering here. Do you know what that means? That's the impact of a key player."

"Sporting Lisbon is indeed far inferior to Arsenal in many ways."

"But in terms of team core, team captain, locker room leader, and many other dimensions, I am far superior to you."

"These things may not necessarily help Sporting Lisbon beat Arsenal, but they can help me beat you in my long career."

Vieira's face changed: "So you're bragging about how you ranked higher than me in the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year awards, kid!"

Deng Kai shook his head: "I just want to tell you that if you don't want to leave a place you love in a sorry state and become enemies with the people you love, you should pay more attention to observing and cultivating your relationships."

"Thirty is a hurdle for all players. To become a legend, you must ensure you still have a high status in the team after thirty. You're twenty-eight this year. Do you think you can still be a starter for Arsenal after you turn thirty?"

"Or rather, you believe you can, but when others believe you can't, do you have the opportunity to prove yourself?"

Vieira was speechless: "Are you trying to disrupt my mindset, trying to help the team score when I'm feeling down?"

Deng Kai walked towards the midfield with a laugh: "It's already in effect, isn't it?"

Vieira broke through the defenses instantly.

Seeking a higher status within the team is something he's been doing at both Arsenal and the French national team.

But the effects were not obvious.

He arrived two years earlier than Henry, but Henry is now far more popular in Highbury than Vieira.

Not to mention the star-studded French team.

In addition, there is Mr. Wenger.

Honestly, Deng Kai's treatment at Sporting Lisbon would be the envy of many team's core players.

Is this a football game?

This guy is acting like an emperor!

...

This minor altercation made both teams' players a bit more temperamental.

Both sides' tactics and techniques have been somewhat altered.

No goals were scored in the remainder of the game.

But Wu Xudong, who stayed on the field to warm up during halftime, greatly excited Chinese fans.

Huang Jianxiang: "Wow! Xiao Wu didn't go into the locker room! He's warming up. It seems Triguera gave him a task. He'll most likely play in the second half."

"I'm so excited! If Xiao Wu plays, he will become the first Chinese player to appear in the second group stage of the Champions League."

"This is absolutely a tremendous honor!" Lan

"The Asian derby is about to be halfway through. As for the remaining half, it will depend on the efforts of the Japanese player... Junichi Inamoto, who is living a comfortable life."

In no time, the news that "Wu Xudong is warming up and preparing to take the field" spread throughout the entire Chinese football world.

Whether it was Fan Zhiyi in Dundee, Yang Chen in Frankfurt, Sun Jihai who joined Manchester City, or Yu Shihao, Shao Jiawei, and others sitting in the stands at Alvalade Stadium, they were all filled with excitement.

Amidst fierce competition at the start of the season, Wu Xudong was slightly outmatched by Maicon and became a substitute.

Later, due to Ronaldinho, the team changed its tactics, and Maicon was immediately relegated to the bench.

Wu Xudong's appearance order would naturally be even later.

Therefore, Wu Xudong has only had a few appearances in the league and has not yet made an official appearance in the Champions League.

Therefore, this is a milestone moment for Chinese football.

But so many fans came with high spirits.

What we saw was not a pleasant sight.

Fifty-second minute.

Bergkamp delivered a beautiful through ball.

Henry received the ball on the left wing, outmaneuvered Barzagli, and with Barzagli using both his hands and feet, he broke into the left side of the penalty area and scored from a tight angle, unstoppable!

"This is terrible! Sporting Lisbon's worst fears have come true."

"Four to one! Arsenal are leading by three goals."

"In that case, they'll take three points from Lisbon, and at the very least, they'll finish second in the group."

"With the second group stage halfway through, Sporting Lisbon will have a hard time advancing to the quarterfinals if they only have three points."

"This team's roster is still a bit weak, with too many old players and too few young ones, and a lack of players who are truly in their prime."

"This goal was a testament to Henry's individual skill, but it also showed how Guardiola was outmaneuvered by a through ball!"

"Oh! A substitution has been announced on the sidelines. Sporting Lisbon needs to make adjustments."

"There are two players standing on the sidelines, and they've made quite a few adjustments."

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
