Chapter 139 Huo Cun wants to win the championship? The pigs laughed
Manchester United equalized the score at the last moment of the game, which could be considered a death-loss, so they celebrated crazy. They didn't even run to the middle circle with the football in their arms, asking Hoffenheim to kick off quickly. At this time, Manchester United didn't think about them having to score another goal and get three points. After the whole game, they thought it would be good to get one point. So they didn't think about them having hope to get three points.
It seems that Hoffenheim has indeed forced Manchester United a bit miserable.
Manchester United players were celebrating goals wildly, while Hoffenheim players seemed very frustrated. Chu Zhongtian, who has always had good psychological qualities, could not hide his disappointment. He did not encourage his teammates to continue to attack and score the goal, but kicked the football that popped out of the goal back with one kick. He was using this method to vent his disappointment and anger in his heart - just a few minutes away, just a little bit away, they could take three points away from the Dream Theater and lead the group! Damn it!
After the game started again, Manchester United players realized that they still had time. As long as they scored another goal, the victory of the game would belong to them. So they launched a fierce offensive against Hoffenheim's goal.
During this period, Hildebran and Chu Zhongtian, Sana became the busiest players in the team. You can't see Chu Zhongtian that he had just experienced that extremely disappointed moment. He was not as stiff as other teammates, as if he had lost his soul. He was still fighting hard. It was impossible to see that he was disappointed and angry when Rooney scored the goal.
Time passed quickly. After four minutes of injury time, Manchester United still did not break Hoffenheim's goal. The referee blew the whistle to the end of the game.
As soon as the game ended, the TV camera swept through the two head coaches and pointed it at Chu Zhongtian. Obviously, Chu Zhongtian was the best in this game.
It was not until this time that the audience saw Chu Zhongtian's deep disappointment on his face through TV broadcast. Some teammates thought it was a proud enough thing to draw Manchester United at Old Trafford, so after the game, they were quite happy and took the initiative to exchange jerseys with Manchester United players.
Only Chu Zhongtian stood alone, put his hands on his hips, pursing his lips tightly, and watching his teammates who were exchanging jerseys with his opponents indifferent. The TV broadcast gave him a big close-up of his eyes, and everyone could clearly see the disappointment and unwillingness in his eyes.
Only after the game was over, he let his emotions vent.
Because only at this time can he not care about the game or stay calm.
No one in this world can always remain calm and calm, even Chu Zhongtian can't do it.
He just stood there, biting his lips tightly, and had no intention of going up to exchange jerseys with Manchester United players. Although he liked to exchange jerseys, there was even a wardrobe in his home to hold those jerseys he exchanged.
Sana noticed that Chu Zhongtian was in a bad mood. He was fine. Although he really hoped that the team would win, since the game was over, it was unnecessary to think about these past things. So his mood quickly adjusted back.
He walked forward, his naked upper body and shoulders were placed on the Manchester United jersey he had just exchanged.
"What are you doing? The game is over, don't have this expression." He said to Chu Zhongtian.
"It's the game that I'm the only expression." Chu Zhongtian moved his gaze to Sana's face, and then noticed the jersey on his shoulder. "Who's it?"
"Scholes'."
In the final moments of the game, Ferguson sent veteran Scholes to strengthen the attack, and he and Sana had several matches in the midfield and frontcourt.
Chu Zhongtian nodded and did not continue to say anything.
Sana knew that Chu Zhongtian was unwilling to end the game with a draw. He clearly led twice, but the final result was only a draw, and no one would want to be willing to do it. But so what if he didn't want it, the game has ended.
He patted Chu Zhongtian on the shoulder and turned around and walked away.
※※※ "We can see the unwillingness and unyieldingness from Chu Zhongtian's eyes. In fact, it is already very good for Hoffenheim to draw Manchester United at Old Trafford Stadium. So look at the expressions of other players after the game, they are all relaxed and happy. Only Chu Zhongtian is not. I suddenly feel that it is precisely because of such an expression that Chu Zhongtian can continue to succeed - he will never give in. For Chinese players, what an important quality is this..." After the game, He Ping sighed at the live broadcast signal that had not been cut off.
"If Hoffenheim's entire team had this expression, I would be full of expectations for their future in the Champions League this season."
※※※Rannick noticed Chu Zhongtian because he was so conspicuous in the relaxed crowd. He did not smile, cheer with his arms, nor did he come up to exchange jerseys with his opponent, and then talked for a few more words.
Van Nistrouy chatted with his old teammates at Manchester United after the game. The other players were exchanging jerseys with Manchester United players and encouraging each other. Just looking at the scene after the game, it was as if it was not a Champions League group match, but a friendly match. Even himself, after the game, shook hands with Ferguson, felt that the result was not bad, at least he did not lose points. Now Hoffenheim temporarily ranked first in the group with the advantage of goal difference. Rangnick was already satisfied with being able to beat Manchester United in the group stage and rank first in the group. Therefore, this result was nothing bad for him.
Only Chu Zhongtian was very special. He stood alone, with his hands on his hips, and his expression was unwilling. There was a photographer carrying a camera beside him, who was photographing him in circles, but he was indifferent, and he seemed to have no such person in his eyes.
Rangnick shook his head gently. He wanted to win Manchester United at Old Trafford, but this reality was cruel and it was not something that could be done by thinking about it.
However, looking at such a stubborn Chu Zhongtian, Rangnick suddenly had an idea in his heart that he was not as good as him.
※※※ Chu Zhongtian felt that this happy post-match scene did not belong to him. After standing for a while, he planned to go back to the locker room. At this time, he was stopped.
"Chu?"
Chu Zhongtian looked closely and saw that the person who stopped him was Manchester United veteran Giggs.
"You seem to be very dissatisfied with the draw?" Giggs smiled at Chu Zhongtian.
Out of politeness, Chu Zhongtian should have said: "No."
But what Chu Zhongtian said was: "Yes, we were a little dissatisfied, we could have won..."
Giggs laughed: "Ha! We could have won too. If Wayne didn't... what's the point of saying this after the game?" He took off the jersey and handed it to Chu Zhongtian. "In fact, both of us performed well, so the draw was a fair and reasonable result. If you win, it would be unfair to us. But I think if you were elected as the best in the game, it should be fair to you."
Chu Zhongtian never thought about the best in the game, and he was full of winning. However, Giggs was so friendly that he could not help but give face, so he took off his jersey, handed it over, and completed the exchange of jerseys.
"Good luck to you, Chu. I hope you can see the name of your team on the list of participating in the knockout round." Giggs took Chu Zhongtian's jersey, said something encouraging and left.
Chu Zhongtian put Giggs' jersey on his shoulders and looked around the stadium stands. He saw the stands where Hoffenheim fans gathered. Thinking of Boss John and the others, he ran over.
As expected, Boss John and the others had not left yet. They seemed very happy to see Chu Zhongtian running over.
"Although it was a draw in the end, don't care too much, Chu!" Boss John knew that Chu Zhongtian was the kind of person who would be so angry that he would be humiliated for a day when he lost a game when he lost a game. Although he has become a professional player, he would be unhappy if he didn't get the result he hoped. So he comforted. "You played very beautifully and were able to push them so embarrassed at Manchester United's home court. Didn't you see how excited they were after Rooney scored? They just equalized the score, but they weren't winning. So you should hold your head up and leave proudly, Chu!"
Chu Zhongtian grinned and said, "I know, Boss John."
"Chu, you guys perform well. The best in the game must be yours!" Old Bente squeezed up and patted Chu Zhongtian's shoulder hard, and said loudly.
"That goal is really beautiful!"
"I saw you even surpass Carrick and Fletcher. I couldn't believe you were the Chu who was the one who could only defend and even pass forward in Wimbledon. Haha!" Qiao Xilin no longer played football anymore. He continued to be his physical education teacher. Today he also watched the game with him. Seeing that his former teammates had such outstanding results, he was no longer jealous as he used to be. People who play football have talent, more or less, and they have more talents to enter the professional staircase team, but there are fewer upward comparisons. In terms of talent, Chu Zhongtian is obviously more than Qiao Xilin.
A group of people came up to comfort him and encourage him. Everyone knew Chu Zhongtian's temper. Seeing that he was not in a high mood, he just picked something nice. In fact, there was nothing bad. Everyone saw Chu Zhongtian's performance in this game. It was not that one person said it was good, but that everyone applauded.
The TV commentators here are also praising Chu Zhongtian, and they all said that Chu Zhongtian had no need to be sad and disappointed in the draw in this game.
"He will have a great future. I'm sure." Although he is an opponent, the commentator of England has to applaud Chu Zhongtian. "Let's see if a player has a future and his performance in the game is indispensable. Many players have excellent performance when facing weak teams, so we are eager to sing praises for them. But I think only when facing strong teams and playing key games can they really have a great future. In my opinion, Chu is such a player who can still not be weak in the face of strong opponents and perform normally in key games. So I said he will have a great future."
"In this game, Hoffenheim finally drew with Manchester United." The commentator of the German premiere TV station used the word "sigh with Manchester United" to express his regret. "No one expected Hoffenheim to play so easily in the game, even leading Manchester United twice. After Hoffenheim gave a surprise to Germany last season, he was destined to surprise the whole of Europe this season. Chu's performance was the biggest highlight. He instigated many consensuses in the midfield. In addition, he was not at a disadvantage in the fight with Fletcher and Carrick, and he scored a goal in the end. I could hardly find a better performance than this. He was only 25 years old. In a game like the UEFA Champions League, he had such a mature and stable performance and a bright future!"
"In fact, Chu became famous as early as the 2006-2007 season. Metz, who was in the league cup final, defeated defending champion Sevilla and won the league cup. However, at that time, the most popular star in Metz was Ribery. Chu did not even win the best player in that final, and gave Ribery two goals. But Chu always stayed silent for a while after success, and his choice was always beyond everyone's expectations. He did not transfer to Metz while he was famous, but chose to continue to be with Metz. As a result, Metz was the defender in the second season.
The champion was crowned and stopped in the semi-finals. Chu had a wonderful performance in the match against Bayern, which attracted everyone's attention again, but unexpectedly chose to transfer to join a team of new teams. These choices were not understood by everyone. Now that a season has passed, he has become the real core in Hoffenheim, leading the newly promoted team to win the Bundesliga championship last season and entered the Champions League game historically. Perhaps he is using this method to prove his value. I wonder how long will Hoffenheim, a team from the countryside, stay with him as he becomes more and more famous..."
Chu Zhongtian became the focus of everyone's discussion and attention after the game.
On the court, he bid farewell to his old friends from Wimbledon and walked down the court alone.
When he walked into the corridor, he was stopped by the reporters in the mixed area.
"Chu! Come and accept the interview!"
"Chu Zhongtian! Chu Zhongtian!" This is the excited Chinese reporter calling out the name of "national hero" in their minds.
Chu Zhongtian cooperated very well and leaned forward, still no smile on his face: "I don't have much time, so I'm in a hurry to go back and take a shower and change my clothes."
"Just a few questions." The reporters said that they would not waste too much time. As the best in the audience, Chu Zhongtian is qualified to show off.
The problem is nothing more than how you feel when you score a goal, how you feel when you draw Manchester United, and this kind of thing.
When talking about the goal, Chu Zhongtian expressed his happiness. However, when talking about the results of the game, Chu Zhongtian was unwilling to give up: "If you can win, it will be more perfect."
"Hoffenheim is the first team to participate in the Champions League in history, but he won and tied in two games. He is now ranked first in the group. What do you think?"
"This is inevitable. From the first day I got to the team, I knew it was inevitable." Chu Zhongtian's answer was very confident, and even a little arrogant. "We are an ambitious team, and everything from hardware to software shows this. Participating in the Champions League is not the ultimate goal, it is just the starting point."
"What is the ultimate goal?" The reporters seemed to be interested. The team that had just participated in the Champions League actually said that. Generally speaking, the mentality of the new team in the Champions League is "going freely". Being able to participate in the group stage will have high economic benefits. If you can advance, it will be perfect, but it will be fine even if you cannot advance. Many teams will not feel disappointed or sad even if they lose to a strong opponent in the group stage.
Hoffenheim is different. After all, it was also the Bundesliga champion last season. If it was just to participate in the group stage, it would be too unwilling to be ambitious.
Chu Zhongtian seemed to be intentionally keeping it in hiding, and did not answer this question, but waved his hand to everyone: "Sorry, I'm going to take a shower." After that, he quickly left the mixed interview area, leaving a group of reporters to guess the "final goal" he said.
"Are you entering the knockout stage? I think with Hoffenheim's strength, it should be no problem to enter the knockout stage..."
"First 16? What is this ultimate goal? With Hoffenheim's ability, isn't it natural to enter the quarterfinals?"
"What you said makes sense, so what is it? Are you in the quarterfinals?"
"Ha! Do you think they are Real Madrid?" A reporter from Catalonia took the opportunity to mock his old opponent. Real Madrid has been in the 18th finals in recent years, which means that the quarterfinals of 16 to 8. It seems that the quarterfinals have become their unsatisfactory goals, so everyone uses this to mock the unpopular Real Madrid.
"Fourth?" Someone boldly raised this goal. He said it in question, which shows that he actually didn't believe it.
"It's too impossible, it's very difficult for the semi-finals. If Hoffenheim can enter the semi-finals, they are not Hoffenheim..."
"I also think it's good that this team can enter the quarterfinals at the moment, and it's difficult to move forward."
"But can Chu be called such a serious 'ultimate goal'? Based on my understanding of Chu, he is a very ambitious player and extremely eager for honor. I still remember that in the middle of last season, when he was interviewed by the woman Lilhouse, he opened his mouth and said that his goal was the champion..." said a German reporter.
"Are you saying that his 'ultimate goal' is the champion?" A reporter next to him interrupted and laughed after hearing the German reporter say this. "This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible. Haha! Hoffenheim's ultimate goal is the Champions League championship? I think this is too ridiculous! You say that Bayern and Real Madrid's ultimate goal is to win the championship, I absolutely believe that Hoffenheim...hahahaha!"
The others laughed.
This is indeed outrageous. A team that participated in the Champions League for the first time actually thought of winning the championship. It was too far away. How far is it? It is so far away from the earth to the edge of the universe... It is very difficult for countless teams with deeper backgrounds and strong strength to win the Champions League championship, so this honor is so important that the wealthy families are willing to follow it.
A new UEFA Champions League team talked about winning the championship after only two group matches. It was a big joke, and it was no wonder that everyone laughed.
This is really a toad that wants to eat swan meat - it's a whimsical idea.
