Through TV, everyone saw that when Zhang Jun was carried onto a stretcher, he covered his face with his hands, something flashing under his hands. Is that sweat or tears?

Sophie also saw it. The moment Zhang Jun fell, she suddenly stood up. There was no need to replay it again, he also knew what had happened just now because she heard a crisp sound.

The left foot is the left ankle. It has finally exploded for more than half a year? Is the Milan laboratory really so authoritative?

When she saw Zhang Jun covering her face with her hands and being carried onto a stretcher by the volunteers, Sophie also covered her mouth. She tried her best to suppress her and was unwilling to cry in front of so many people. Zhang Jun's feet were broken, and Sophie's heart was also broken.

The conflict finally subsided five minutes later. The referee first showed a red card to Xiang Tao, who was beating him and sent him off. Xiang Tao did not make any defense and turned around and walked down the field. He was not a fool. He knew that it was certain that he had taken the red card, but it was worth it to hit the turtle son with his own hands. Not only was Xiang Tao not blamed by the fans, but he received loud cheers and applause from the audience.

Then the referee showed Carmelli a red card directly! Appear! Although he had a yellow card before, this action was too bad, and not giving a red card would not be enough to calm the public's anger. Carmelli was also very tactful and walked obediently down the field. However, when he walked to the player's passage, he was attacked by fans in the stands on both sides. The angry fans threw mineral water bottles at him, threw lighters, and even threw down his cell phone!

The panic-ridden Carmeli hugged her head with her hands and ran towards the passage. The riot police on both sides raised their shields to protect Carmeli. He returned to the locker room safely, but it well explained what "sleeping with your head" means.

The game continued, and the Chinese team received a penalty because Zhang Jun was violated. The penalty kick was taken by Li Yongle. He shot hard and knocked the ball towards the upper left of the goal. The goalkeeper could not save it and the ball entered!

The Chinese team scored a penalty kick and expanded the score to 3:0!

But many people would rather not have this penalty kick, and hope that Zhang Jun is safe. After all, the price of this penalty kick is too high.

After scoring the goal, Li Yongle rushed to the Iranian coach's seat and shouted at them in language that no one could understand.

The substitutes of the Iran team were all indignant, and only head coach Kohan pretended not to see it.

The game continued. With one person being sent off, the Chinese team launched an almost crazy attack amid the shouts of tens of thousands of fans, and they wanted to avenge Zhang Jun. The madness of this move was entirely the personal decision of the players, so that Qiu Suhui had to adjust the player's mentality through substitutions. He replaced Li Yongle and Zhao Pengyu, who were a little overly excited.

Despite this, in the 87th minute, Li Jie, who was carrying a yellow card, headed the ball in the header, jumped high in the sprint, and then started exerting force from his waist and abdomen, and a domineering header! Taleblo didn't even respond, and the ball came into the net!

The ball is in again! 4:0!

After scoring the goal, Li Jie was also very excited. He refused his teammates who came up to celebrate, and then ran to the bench of the Iranian Olympic team alone and roared with an extremely ferocious face!

You guys can't beat us even if you are so despicable!

The doctor said to Chen Wei who was anxious, "I just made the film and I will know the specific result tomorrow. Before the injury is clear, he cannot go back and can only stay in the hospital."

"Okay, okay. You must analyze it carefully and give the most detailed and complete injury report!"

"Don't worry, I'm a doctor, we'll be responsible."

Chen Wei turned his head and looked at the ward again, and then left with some confidence. He had to return to the National Olympic headquarters. If something big happened, how could he be not present? There are still many things!

※※※

Zhang Jun was lying quietly on the hospital bed, wearing a national Olympic team uniform. He did not fall into a coma, he was very awake.

But he couldn't remember anything, his mind was blank, he stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, motionless.

There was no light on in the room, and the lights in the corridor shot in through the windows on the door, but the room was still pitch black and there was no trace of blackness.

※※※

The next day, all the reporters gathered at the hospital because in a while, the hospital would release Zhang Jun's injury report. Before that, they were communicating with the officials of the Football Association.

Chen Wei frowned when he held the report, not for Zhang Jun's injury, but for him not understanding the professional term "Full the report". "Explain it, this report is too professional."

"Well, simply put, there are nerves, ligaments and acupoints distributed on the inner side of the ankle. The inner side of the ankle is the triangular ligament, and there is an anterior periolar ligament between the inner ankle and the outer ankle. These ligaments, nerves and acupoints are the keys for the person's ankle to move flexibly and freely." The doctor yesterday - he is the best sports injury expert in this hospital - picked up an X-ray: "According to the film, we can clearly see the partial tear of the triangular ligament and anterior periolar ligament on the inner side of the left ankle of the injured person..."

Unable to listen to the doctor's slow and emotional statement, Chen Wei asked directly: "Can it be cured?"

The doctor looked at Chen Wei and continued: "Football players have high requirements for the flexibility of ankle. Zhang Jun's ankle ligament was partially torn. I think it is possible to cure it, but it is only possible. If he is cured at the same time, it does not mean that Zhang Jun will definitely be able to return to the state before the injury... The Iranian player's foot was accurate and fierce, and fast. Just as Zhang Jun jumped up, he stomped down. An upward force and a downward force interacted with each other, and his destructive power was amazing. I personally..." He stopped and looked at everyone.

Chen Wei waved his hand and said, "Let's talk."

"I personally think that even if it is cured, it will seriously affect his ability. It can be said that he will face the situation of ending his football career early."

The doctor's tone was very calm, and this kind of thing was nothing to him who was used to life and death. But in Chen Wei's heart, he undoubtedly felt that the earth was shaking.

Ending his football career early? Isn’t this retirement? What a joke? He is only twenty-two years old! Everything has just begun! Who has the power to give such a notice? Is he, the vice chairman of the Football Association? Or this expert?

"Then... if you are sure to treat it, what method should you use?" Chen Wei asked unwillingly.

"If you have to treat it,... you must first perform local anesthesia, anesthetize the large and small nerves such as the skull nerve near the injured area, and then use the most advanced electronic arthroscopy technology to perform a small invasion surgery by observing the computer screen, and finely suture the torn triangular ligament and anterior periosteum ligament near the medial ankle. However, IMHO, our hospital does not have such technology, and no domestic medical institution may be able to undergo this surgery. If you do it rashly in China, it is very likely that it will cause his lifelong disability."

Another thunderbolt.

Chen Wei didn't know what to say, he just sat blankly on the sofa, looking at the obscure report of injuries in a daze.

"Chairman, Chairman?"

"Hmm, what?"

“Press conference…”

"Oh, let's hold it." Chen Wei grabbed the handrail of the sofa with both hands and stood up hard.

"So does Zhang Jun's injury... need to be announced truthfully?"

Chen Wei looked at the report, then thought about it again, and finally told his secretary: "Don't say it so seriously, leave a way out for our later work, only talk about the tear of the ligament, but don't tell the impact."

The doctor watched coldly. He was a doctor and was not interested in the matter of being an official. He did everything he should do, and how to deal with it is someone else's business.

※※※

The press conference was indeed held according to Chen Wei's words. The secretary highly understood the leadership's meaning, but although he did not say what the impact on Zhang Jun, the shock caused by this in the hearts of the reporters is still conceivable. After all, the reporter is not a fool. They all know the report from the Milan laboratory and know how heavy the foul was yesterday. The Football Association announced that Zhang Jun will miss the next game against Iran's National Olympic Team, and whether he can catch up with the home game against South Korea on May 1 depends on the recovery.

The press conference was very noisy, and everyone was contacting the headquarters through their mobile phones and telling the rear the shocking news.

Chen Wei looked at the chaotic scene in front of him without any expression. He didn't even have the strength to stand up now. In fact, he knew the truth that it would be revealed in front of reporters with great powers. He must find a treatment as soon as possible to minimize the impact of Zhang Jun's injury. He went to the National Olympic Team to see last night. Except for some players who were excited, he did not see anything bad. Qiu Suhui also acted calmly and did not mention Zhang Jun's injury too much. He just said that he would ensure that the remaining three games will be played. Now the team won three games in three games, and the remaining three games will be qualified as long as they win two more games. If South Korea and Iran restrain each other, China may qualify in advance.

Although he has the guarantee of the coach and qualifying is indeed not a big problem, the thought of the "Hope Star of Chinese Football" being injured during the return to China to participate in the competition and will likely retire early, which makes him very troubled. Alas! He will be injured sooner or later, why not get injured in the League Cup or the Netherlands? At least it has nothing to do with him. During the entire press conference, he sat in his position without saying a word.

In fact, he didn't know what to say.

※※※

In the past two days, all media have been reporting the news of Zhang Jun's injury. Although it has not been said that Zhang Jun may retire, serious people can still see something wrong, such a serious foul, a torn ligament, and even said that they are trying to play against the Korean team. It is obvious that they are insincere.

All sports newspapers and magazines are out of stock, and the forums of major websites are crowded. In just two days, "left foot inner ankle" has become a hot word and a focus topic.

There were all kinds of newspapers piled up, almost all of which were front page headlines, and the colorful titles and pictures made them look colorful. Sophie sat by the bed and looked at these newspapers. She bought them all, but she had not read any of them carefully. She was in the mood. As long as she saw the photos of Zhang Jun being carried off by a stretcher, she was in no mood to continue reading.

But she paid for all the newspapers she could buy, wishful thinking that Zhang Jun would not be hurt if others could not see it.

Unfortunately, it was just her wishful thinking.

Sophie was in a mess. She got the wrong textbook in class, forgot to eat, and was anxious all day long without reading the full text of those reports. She also knew what this injury meant to Zhang Jun.

Even if the media doesn't report it, Sophie knows it.

※※※

The next day, Zhang Jun's parents left everything in their home and flew to Wuhan to take care of their children. However, the Zhang Jun they saw in the hospital was silent all day long, completely devoid of his usual liveliness and cheerfulness.

The nurse came in and pulled the curtains open very considerately, and the morning sun shone in, and it was a new day.

The nurse wanted to praise the weather, but she turned around and saw Zhang Jun's dark eyes like stagnant water, and the sky suddenly became cloudy again.

His parents slept in a room that was made for them next door. They were frightened last night, and they were tired from the journey, so they had not gotten up yet. However, Zhang Jun had already gotten up early, sat on the bed with two pillows on his back, but who knows, maybe he didn't sleep all night last night?

Today is the fourth day of hospitalization, and he did not receive any news from the outside world. Among them, Qiu Suhui, Liu Peng and Li Yongle visited on behalf of the National Olympic Team. Although everyone told him that the injury was fine and he could return to the arena after resting for three weeks. But Zhang Jun is not a fool, he knew very well. Even his parents came, which shows the seriousness of the problem.

This is the case every day. The nurse comes in the morning and opens the curtains and announces the arrival of a new day. But Zhang Jun feels that the days have passed day by day and there is no hope in the future. So what are you doing here? Waiting to die?

※※※

After Li Yan called him, Yang Pan was in a hurry to call Zhang Jun, but he heard the prompt sound of "The user you called has been turned off". No matter how many times he called, it was the same sound.

He could only put down the phone helplessly and prayed in his heart that Zhang Jun should not be too lazy to think about it.

※※※

Qiu Suhui was in a very bad mood. Although he was quite calm in front of Chen Wei, it was just a gift to the leader. However, when facing these players, he didn't need to think too much. He strictly prohibited anyone from mentioning the names of Iran's head coach Kohan and captain Kameli in front of him, otherwise he would have to go to the lap.

If there was no security guard at that time, he would have wanted to rush over and strangle the other head coach to death at the press conference. The bastard was still saying that it was an accident.

When interviewed by reporters, he was also very rude: "It is normal to win or lose in football, and either side will face failure. But! But, tonight I only saw an extremely ugly farce! Our players are great, but we are not playing with a team, but fighting with an army! I don't understand the arrangements of the other side's coach. I have been in Europe for ten years and have never seen a team playing with such a mentality!"

But Kohan is not going to admit that he did it on purpose: "There are always accidents on the football field, and this is also part of football. Of course, I feel sad and regretful for Zhang Jun, but there is no way, this is football."

Of course, Wuhan fans would not think that this is football. They were filled with all kinds of angry words on the bus they were riding on the Iranian Olympic team.

"Shameless Iranians!"

"Fuck your Iranian mother!"

"Give me Zhang Jun back!"

"If you have the will, don't leave China!"

...

In addition to shouting some slightly extreme slogans, the entire "signature" activity was very calm and there was no violent behavior, so the police on duty did not come forward to stop them. After all, the words written on the car body were wiped off with water, so there was no need to make trouble with the fans for this.

Unfortunately, no matter how much Zhang Jun's injury is washed, it cannot be erased.

The entire Iranian team spent more than two hours in the locker room before secretly evacuating from the Wuhan Sports Center from another gate. During this period, they could hear the angry roar of Chinese fans in the locker room.

Li Yan's anger can be seen in the instant comments he made in 20 minutes. He even used words such as "despicable", "shameless", "shameless", "fucking" and other words to express his anger.

Even the senior executives were alarmed and could not sit idly by. The Chinese Football Association rarely issued a statement for a player, expressing "very regret" about the Iranian team's actions in the game, and announced that they had handed over the video of the game to the AFC and appealed to the upper level, complaining about the Iranian team's serious violation of sports ethics. They demanded additional punishments for Iran's head coach Kohan and foul player Kameli.

"Everyone knows the physical examination report last summer that Zhang Jun's left ankle was considered to be a hidden danger by the Milan laboratory. Kohan must have known it, so he ordered Carmeli to invade Zhang Jun's left ankle again and again like sprinkling salt on the other party's wound. What is this? We have sufficient reason to question Kohan's character and morality. Is such a butcher who ignores the opponent's football life qualified to sit in the coaching seat?"—
