Football: Starting with the Crescent Moon Slash

Wuhan Sports Center.

The match is about to begin.

"Zhuangdiantai! Zhuangdiantai! This is Zhuangdiantai! Good evening, everyone!"

"The match between China and the Maldives is about to begin!"

"Although the Maldives' strength is among the worst in Asia, the outcome of this match is a foregone conclusion."

"But this match also marks the debut season for young Chinese player Jiang Yan! She's garnered considerable attention online!"

"As you all have seen, Jiang Yan crashed Weibo's servers five times after returning to China."

"That's right, even my wife, who doesn't understand football, knows Jiang Yan's name."

"He is now the best representative of Chinese football!"

......

Pre-match press conference.

Gao Hongbo looked solemn.

He is also about to face his first international match as the head coach of the Chinese national football team.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.

But once she thought of Jiang Yan, her worries subsided.

"Dear media friends, please rest assured, Jiang Yan is in good condition."

"After professional instrument measurement, all his indicators were fine. His data and performance in training matches surprised me. Perhaps we really have a world-class player."

After returning to China, Jiang Yan spent a lot of time adjusting his sleep schedule. The various data and performance in training matches mentioned by Gao Hongbo were only about 50% of Jiang Yan's strength.

the other side.

Herbert remained stubborn.

"Jiang Yan is indeed very strong, but my players will also show the right attitude. We will not let him end this game easily."

Clearly, he knew his players couldn't beat Jiang Yan, but he couldn't lose in terms of morale!

......

Inside the locker room, there were still twenty minutes before the game started.

Jiang Yan was still looking at his phone when his Real Madrid teammates sent him pre-match well wishes.

Bale: Go for it, Jiang, make your national team debut and show them the gap between us and the world!

Benzema: Come on, Jiang! Try to charm millions of young women in China!

Modric: Stay calm, that's the key to winning.

Isco: Hang in there, Jiang! Don't miss me too much, even though I'm not here to protect you~

Kovacic: Master! Mr. Luka already told me to keep a calm mind! I will continue to improve!

"The match is about to begin, both sides line up!"

Just as Jiang Yan was about to put down his phone.

Buzzing...

Another message popped up.

Emily: Take good care of yourself, and don't get hurt!

Upon seeing the message, Jiang Yan replied with a smile: OK.

Both teams walked out of the players' tunnel under the guidance of the referee team.

The entire Wuhan Sports Center was filled with deafening cheers.

"Here are the starting lineups for both teams."

"The Chinese team fielded a classic 4-2-3-1 formation."

Goalkeeper: Wang Dalei.

"Defenders: Zhao Mingjian, Feng Xiaoting, Ren Hang, Li Xuepeng."

Defensive midfielders: Wu Xi, Hao Junmin.

"Avant-garde: Yu Hai, Jiang Yan, Jiang Ning."

Forward: Wu Lei

"We can see that Jiang Yan is playing as an attacking midfielder, while Wu Lei has been switched to striker. Is this a clever tactical move by Gao Hongbo?"

"Regardless, let's see how Jiang Yan performs in his national team debut!"

......

"The Maldives have actually fielded a 4-3-3 formation! It seems they're not parking the bus as expected!"

Goalkeeper: Imran

"Defenders: Ghasim, Abdullah, Samdu, Naiz."

Midfielders: Ismail, Amuzha, Shafiu.

Forwards: Assad, Ali, Nasheed.

"I didn't expect the Maldives to field such an aggressive lineup; they seem to have no regard for Jiang Yan whatsoever!"

……

Fans watching on TV were slightly taken aback when they heard this. The Maldives was going to go toe-to-toe with the Chinese national team, which had Jiang Yan.

Although I don't understand, I respect it.

This also gave Jiang Yan a chance to shine.

……

The national anthem singing segment has ended.

With the referee's whistle.

The competition has officially begun.

China has possession of the ball.

Wu Lei tactfully passed the ball directly to Jiang Yan's feet.

Jiang Yan dribbled the ball, and a deafening cheer immediately erupted from the stadium.

"I wonder if those of you watching on TV could hear the cheers of the tens of thousands of Chinese fans at the stadium. That's the charisma of a star player!"

After receiving the ball, he did not use his teammates' cover to organize an attack, unlike he does at Real Madrid.

Instead, he dribbled the ball directly towards the defender.

"What is Jiang Yan doing? He's actually charging towards the defender with the ball!"

Even the defensive player assigned to mark Jiang Yan began to hesitate at this moment:

Should I continue forward?

However, just as the two were about to get close, Jiang Yan easily escaped with a series of fried dough balls.

"My God! Fried meatballs! Is Jiang Yan... showing off his skills?"

Seeing Jiang Yan's fried meatballs, the audience on stage became even more excited, and the cheers rose one after another.

……

Inside the live stream room.

[Fried meatballs! Fried meatballs again, Jiang Shen's signature dish!]

Isn't his signature move the Crescent Moon Saber?

Shouldn't it be a heavy artillery barrage to breach the door?

[Holy crap! Another fried dough stick! He's beaten two people already! What's he up to?]

So many signature moves? He has so many amazing skills!

……

"More fried dough balls! Jiang Yan has already beaten two people!"

"Jiang Yan is about to enter the Maldives' restricted area using only his own abilities! What incredible individual combat skills!"

"This familiar central attack reminds me of Messi! Our China has its own Messi!"

"Jiang Yan is already close to the edge of the restricted area! What is he going to do?"

"He's about to shoot?! From this distance?"

Jiang Yan didn't make many adjustments. After a series of dribbling maneuvers to get rid of his opponents, the Maldives no longer had enough troops to keep an eye on Jiang Yan.

He took a deep breath.

He then swung his lower leg.

He swung his outside of his foot hard towards the center of the ball's weight!

boom!

"Goal...goal...goal!"

"Goal!!!!!"

"GOOOOOAAALLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Five minutes! The game has only been going on for five minutes!"

"Jiang Yan! Jiang Shen! Jiang Qiu Wang! He displayed exceptional individual skill! A series of 'roulette' passes, followed by a powerful shot from outside the penalty area! The ball swished through the net!"

"1:0!!!"

"The Chinese team has achieved a dream start at home!"

The spectators on the sidelines went wild.

Some people were screaming hysterically, some strangers were hugging each other to celebrate, and some were so excited that they collapsed in their seats.

"What is a superstar? This is a superstar!"

Sidelines.

Gao Hongbo was stunned.

"Goal...goal?"

Before he could even react, the ball had already gone in.

Without any further explanation, just before the match, Gao Hongbo explained the tactics for the game to everyone.

The core idea is simple—get the ball to Jiang Yan.

He had considered that Jiang Yan was very strong.

I never expected it to be this strong!

One person single-handedly wiped out the entire Maldives team!
