Chapter 362 Belongs to Li Rui's season!
Chapter 362 Belongs to Li Rui's season!
After the Charity Shield, the curtain of the Premier League is about to begin.
For Chinese fans, there is good news now. Due to Li Rui's increasingly outstanding performance at Manchester United, domestic fans are increasingly calling for CCTV to broadcast the Premier League live. season's Premier League broadcast rights.
For CCTV's rare good deed, but fans don't appreciate it. The most widely circulated version on the Internet is that CCTV is finally willing to spend money to do practical things this time. A retired old leader is a senior fan. You can watch the football comfortably, but the leader is a fan of Li Rui, but he found that CCTV did not broadcast the Premier League game live. The old leader was furious. He called Jiang Ping from CCTV and angrily said, "Why not? Live broadcast of Premier League games, you melons, watching football is a major event, it is the spiritual and cultural needs of ordinary people, is there anything more important than meeting the needs of the people?"
Ever since, CCTV began to broadcast the Premier League live.
Of course, this is all a joke, and it cannot withstand scrutiny, not to mention whether there is such an old leader. It is not easy for an old leader to watch football. The rare joy of the Chinese fans who were tortured to go crazy during the selection of the Chinese team for the World Championships.
At the very least, Wen Xiaohan is the beneficiary of this incident. She has been a senior since the beginning of school, and has been busy looking for a job. There is very little homework in her senior year, which also makes Wen Xiaohan, who has always been restless about her studies Time is waiting for Li Rui in front of the TV every weekend.This infatuated girl, even though she knows that her brother already has a girlfriend and is a Hollywood actress, but she still clings to the thread of love in her heart, clinging to the hard training that maybe she is destined to never take over.
***********
On August [-]th, [-], Suzhou was as hot as a steamer. Wen Xiaohan had already returned to school early. She was in her senior year. She and her roommate were renting a house outside. The air conditioner was a bit cold. Open the window , You can vaguely see the flickering shadow of the pagoda of Hanshan Temple.
"The game is about to start. We saw that the players have come out of the dressing room. This is the first game of the new season for Manchester United. The whole team of Manchester United also hopes to get off to a good start. Because Manchester United's game is this round. It was played later, in the previous game that had already ended, Arsenal had a draw against Aston Villa at home, Liverpool was also tied away by Sheffield United, and now there is only the next game left for Manchester United The home game against Fulham, and the home game between Chelsea and Manchester City in the early hours of Monday morning, if Manchester United can get the door open, they will maintain a good leading position at the beginning of the new season."
Lu Jianhong’s voice came from the TV, and the game was about to start. Wen Xiaohan hurriedly closed the window, drew the curtains, climbed onto the bed, and covered the game with a small blanket with a cartoon image of Mickey Mouse on it. The weather was hot, The air conditioner had to be turned on, and she couldn't blow it on, so she had to cover it with a blanket.
On the TV screen, Li Rui was chatting and laughing with his teammates. What surprised everyone was that Li Rui had shaved his head. There was no news about this before.
"Huh? We saw that Li Rui shaved his head. This—this should be he just shaved his head before the game. What does it mean? Start all over again? Manchester United's performance last season was not bad...haha However, I hope Li Rui's new hairstyle can bring him good luck in the first game of the new season." Lu Jianhong said with a smile.
"It's so ugly..." Wen Xiaohan curled her lips and muttered that she was still angry. Li Rui didn't meet her when she returned to China in the summer. Wen Xiaohan wanted to see Jessica with her own eyes. I missed the Olympic summer camp organized by the school.
***********
It really made Lu Jianhong guess that Li Rui's glorious hairstyle was born at noon on the day of the competition. When he appeared in front of his teammates with a [-]-watt light bulb on his head, everyone was surprised. Then they were all overjoyed.
Rooney, who was unable to play in this game because of the suspension, circled around Li Rui, clicked his tongue twice, then put his arms around Li Rui pretending to be intimate, and said with a wink in a low voice, "Tell me, are you broken in love?" Did you go to a nightclub and be discovered by Jessica?!"
Cough cough—— Li Rui gave the little fat man a hard look. What is he pretending to be in his head? He has a conscience. Li Rui just wants to commemorate with such a gesture. When the new season begins, He said to himself that everything starts from scratch, and he must work hard to win as many championships as possible—I believe that if Ferguson knew Li Rui's wish, the old Scottish man would be very happy.
"Guys, don't get together, take a break, and get ready to go to the stadium." Manchester United assistant coach Queiroz clapped his hands. At this time, he noticed Li Rui's 'new hairstyle'. Queiroz nodded at Li Rui and said, "Li, the hairstyle is nice."
***********
Since it was the first league game of the new season and it was a home game, the Manchester United players also held a short and festive entrance ceremony. Team captain Gary Neville and team vice Giggs held the championship trophy in one hand , walked in front with their heads held high, and behind them, Manchester United players lined up to enter the field. At this time, the players of the visiting team Fulham had not yet entered the field. This occasion obviously did not belong to the fuck.
Amidst the tsunami-like cheers of the fans, Gary Neville lifted the trophy three times.
The game kicked off at 45:[-] p.m. London time. The floodlights at Old Trafford reflected on Li Rui's shiny head, which was a bit dazzling.
The commentators of the Sky TV broadcasting the game were also talking about the bald head of Manchester United's No. 10. Before the game started, Li Rui's bald head suddenly aroused the interest of millions of fans in England. Counting the number of fans all over the world, especially in China, well, Li Rui's brand new hairstyle is absolutely unprecedented in influence. Perhaps, the light bulb factory can consider asking Li Rui to endorse them.
Players from both sides lined up to shake hands, took a group photo, and the captains exchanged team flags. After these routine procedures, the players from both sides dispersed. At 45:2006, with the whistle of the referee Anthony, the first place in the English Premier League in the 2007-[-] season In the first round, Manchester United's home game against Fulham began.
"I hope that Li's new hairstyle can bring him good luck—I hope the goals will come sooner, haha, this is also the wish of the fans who have been waiting for a summer." At this time, Taibi said.
***********
The goals did come quickly, and Li Rui quickly shifted everyone's attention from his 'hairdo' to his feet.
In the third minute of the game, Fulham right-back Diop fouled Cassano, and Manchester United quickly sent a free kick.
Scholes bent down to stop the football, and then kicked the football out. After Cristiano Ronaldo got the ball, he stepped on the football, looked at the situation in the penalty area, and suddenly picked up the football with his toes.
It was a kick and the ball flew high over the heads of the Fulham defenders and then flew into the penalty area.
Relying on his strong body, Cassano jumped in front of Fulham defender Pierce who was defending him in the penalty area. In free time, Fulham defender Frank Quedreux did not cover Li Rui closely, which was enough for a shooter of Li Rui's level.
Sure enough, Li Rui lived up to Cassano's trust. He jumped in from the back row, and then jumped high, making a powerful dash to the top in the air!
Because Cristiano Ronaldo's pick pass was very sudden, Cassano did not directly attack the goal, and his header ferry also made Fulham's defense a bit unexpected, so Frank Quedreux's marking of Li Rui was not strict. When Li Rui suddenly jumped in like a leopard and headed the goal, Frank Quedreux was shocked and could only watch Li Rui's header. From his point of view, a The shiny bald head made close contact with the ball, which even made the Fulham defender a little dizzy. No way, Li Rui's bald head is indeed a bit dazzling!
Li Rui's header is quite tricky.Although Fulham goalkeeper Nimi tried his best to save it, he still couldn't save the header that went straight to the back post of the goal!
************
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! Manchester United lead Fulham 1-0!! Only 4 minutes into the game! Li Rui scored his first league goal of the season!! This is also Manchester United's first goal of the season! He helped Manchester United get off to a great start to the new season! Perfect!"
"1:0!!! Haha, Li's goal, after waiting for a summer, we saw LI'S again——GOAL!!!!"
The commentator was roaring, and at this time, the entire stadium erupted into cheers like a volcanic eruption.
After scoring the goal, Li Rui seemed very excited. He even ran two steps in excitement and then performed two somersaults, which blew up the entire stadium.
For 73 days, in the summer of the World Cup, Li Rui could only watch his teammates in front of the TV playing on the stage of the World Cup. He was going crazy.Although Li Rui also scored goals in the warm-up match and the Charity Shield before, it wasn't until this time that Li Rui really felt that the new season had begun!
He wants to vent the regret of missing the World Cup and the passion that has been suppressed for a long time in the new season!
All the heroes who participated in the World Cup? ! !are you ready?Here is my place! !
The passion that Li Rui showed after scoring a goal surprised the commentators. However, thinking that this young man always seems to be so passionate, he was relieved. Yes, a shooter needs this kind of goal as his life. Passion of the gene.
"Goal, Li Rui made a good start for Manchester United in the new season. This goal is so beautiful!! Li Rui looked very excited after the goal. This year is the World Cup year. For those who did not participate in the World Cup For Li Rui, the vacation is a bit too long, he is obviously 'suffocated'." Lu Jianhong looked at the excited Li Rui, but he said it very aptly, but Lu Jianhong himself was also very excited. CCTV finally broadcast the Premier League match. The commentator is also happy, after all, seeing Li Rui's wonderful performance with his own eyes is different from commenting on other games, so proud! !
**********
Ferguson on the bench shook his fist. Manchester United's first games in recent seasons have been very difficult. Today's game was able to score so early, which made the old Scottish man feel very good.
After Manchester United scored the second goal and extended the score to 2:0, Ferguson even sat on the coach's bench, crossed his legs, and whispered something to Queiroz next to him.
Less than 10 minutes after Li Rui's goal, Manchester United's second goal also came, although there was an element of luck in this goal.
Scholes' long-range shot was blocked by Felipe with his butt out of the penalty area. With his back to the goal, Li Rui knocked the football back to Cristiano Ronaldo. Manchester United's number 7 passed Diop and Brown in a row, and then A long oblique pass hoists the football into the penalty area.
In the penalty area, Li Rui jumped up from the front point, but failed to touch the football. However, this also interfered with Fulham's defense. The football stopped, and when the ball hit the ground, he leaned against Lamo behind him, turned around forcibly, did not bring Lamo up to block, and faced the falling football, he just hit the goal with one kick!
After the football was drawn, the speed of the ball was not fast due to the low power of the shot. However, after the football suddenly jumped up in front of the goal, it hit the outstretched leg of the defender Pierce who was desperately returning to the defense, and suddenly changed the line!
Fulham goalkeeper Nimi was dumbfounded. He didn't expect the ball to hit his teammate's leg and change direction. He could only watch the football roll into the goal for the second time in 10 minutes. This feeling is really uncomfortable—— A wave of frustration flooded the poor goalkeeper's heart.
"GOOOOOOOOAL!!! Cassano! Cassano! Manchester United!!! They have already led Fulham 2-0! Their first game of the new season went so well!!" The commentator shouted , seems to be a little lamenting the good luck of the Manchester United team. After scoring a goal at the beginning of the game, there will be such a refraction goal.
However, the commentator also knows that any luck is based on strength. The strong offensive shown by the Manchester United team after the start of the game made the Fulham people tired of coping.
"This Manchester United team is stronger than last season -" Lineker exclaimed.
"That's right, Gary!!!" Manchester United fans in front of the TV yelled loudly holding their wine glasses. The game had only gone on for 15 minutes, and the team had already led 2-0. .
***********
After the goal, Cassano also seemed very excited. He rushed to the sidelines, put his foot on the billboard, and then waved his right arm towards the sky.
This summer is not a good memory for Cassano. Lippi was excluded from the squad of the Italian national team and failed to participate in the World Cup. Italy finally won the Hercules again after 24 years Cup, although Cassano was also happy for Italy to win the championship, but he was missing himself among those who won the trophy, and the young man in Barry was still quite uncomfortable.
It can be said that this summer, Cassano is quite depressed.
…………
When Cassano was celebrating his goal wildly, the TV cameras took time to show Rooney in the box in the stands. The little fat man was suspended for this round and could only watch from the stands.
The intention of the live broadcast is obvious. Although Cassano scored a goal is something to be happy about, but, as a competitor, seeing Cassano's performance at the beginning of the season is so good, Rooney is definitely not happy, and he is suspended for three games. Although there are not many games, who can guarantee that Rooney will be able to regain the main position from Cassano after the suspension is lifted.
Like Li Rui and Cassano, although Rooney participated in the World Cup, the fat man's first experience in the world wave is definitely not a good memory. Therefore, Rooney is holding his breath and wants to perform well in the new season. However, the little fat man did not expect that a red card in a warm-up match would also bring him a suspension penalty, so he had no choice but to give up his main position.
Looking at Cassano's excited smiling face, the little fat man was a little depressed.
***********
The head coach of Fulham, Mark Hughes, looked as if his father had died. After only 15 minutes of the game, they fell behind 0:2. The opponent was still Manchester United. How can this game be played? !
His eyes were fixed on the night sky at Old Trafford, as if there, God would tell him where the way out!
Soon God told the poor gentleman a wise saying——
The game is like being raped, since you are powerless to resist, just enjoy it.
***********
In the 39th minute of the game, Fulham won an excellent free kick in the frontcourt.However, Fulham midfielder Mott's shot hit the wall, and Carrick immediately instigated a counterattack with a big foot after receiving the ball.
Cristiano Ronaldo made a high-speed breakthrough with the ball from the side. After breaking through the defense of Diop and Brad in a row, he hoisted the football into the penalty area, and then everyone saw a flash of red light, and the football was already in the net. Jumping around.
He dived to hit the goal with a header. After seeing the football go into the net, Li Rui opened his arms and ran to the sidelines when he landed. Then he dived and glided again, just like a real bomber.
"GOOOOOOOOOAL!!! GOOOOOOOAL --!! This is -- Li!!!!!! He's a bomber!!! He scored the second goal of the game!!" The commentator said It was Li Rui who saw the goal. It was a dive-bombing header. It was so beautiful! !
Amidst the cheers that were about to explode at Old Trafford, Cassano followed Li Rui and swooped down, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo, Carrick...
At the end of the first half, Manchester United 3-0 Fulham, the score was stretched to three goals!This time it was Li Rui's goal again. He is now in surprisingly good condition!
"Long live! Lee! Long live! Manchester United!!!" At this time, the entire stadium reached a climax of today's game, with roars and cheers one after another. The few Fulham fans who came to the away game were already extremely frustrated. In this game, Fulham can't have any chances.The Fulham fans looked at the guy wearing the No. 10 jersey with complicated expressions. What a terrible guy this is! !
***********
On the central stand of the die-hard fan area at Old Trafford, at this time, a banner was hung: "Lee, we are very happy because of your goal!!"
Very simple sentence!
These words represent the aspirations of all Manchester United fans. The fans are undoubtedly happy. This young man who has just passed his 21st birthday has brought them joy with his goals one after another. Many champions! !
In the minds of some fans, Li Rui is after Cantona, the Manchester United team has been looking for the king for many years. Although, Li Rui respects Cantona when facing the media, and he himself is very humble However, the fans really think so, especially in the face of Li Rui's nearly perfect answer last season, the fans have more reason to believe that this young man will bring countless glory and championships to the team—as if A tough French guy named Eric Cantona once did that! !
***********
The camera is also aimed at the stands. In this game, Cantona just came to the scene to watch the game. At this time, Cantona was sitting on the rostrum, and Manchester United's 'old king' watched the red tide rolling in the stands So, vaguely yesterday.
"I saw a fighting Manchester United team, we were always so hungry for goals and wins! It's a Manchester United tradition - banners in the stands? Lee should be totally proud of himself, he did a great job - yes , I was also very happy when he scored a goal. Haha." After the game, Cantona said in an interview with the BBC.
In the end, in this game, Manchester United beat Fulham 5:0 at home. Cristiano Ronaldo took advantage of a free kick at the beginning of the second half and scored directly, 4:0! !
During stoppage time of the whole game, Giuseppe Rossi, who came on as a substitute for Li Rui, scored with a header, 5:0! !
Manchester United's powerful attack group broke out in an all-round way, and Fulham was unfortunately sacrificed by Manchester United.
…………
In the game that ended later, Terry, Lampard and Didier Drogba each scored a goal. Chelsea beat Manchester City 3-0 at home.
In this way, after the first round of the league, Manchester United, which beat Fulham 5:0, made a good start to the league and occupied the top position. Chelsea's goal difference ranked second.
In the scorer list, Li Rui scored twice and Portsmouth's Kanu tied for the top scorer list. The Nigerian striker also scored twice to help Portsmouth 3-0 Blackburn at home.
***********
This week is a week of double matches, three days later, the second round of the league.
Manchester United, who came to the Valley Stadium, beat Charlton 3-0 away.Li Rui scored twice again in the game, and the other goal was scored by Solskjaer who came off the bench.
Manchester United scored four goals in two games on the 10th, and the state shown made everyone feel horrible.The media also teased after the game that Charlton is Li Rui's favorite team. Indeed, even at Leeds United, Li Rui scored three goals at home and away against Charlton. When Li Rui faced Charlton, the average number of goals in a game was close to two.
Manchester United won, which is not surprising, but Chelsea lost this round, which is indeed a complete upset.
In Chelsea's away game against Middlesbrough, Shevchenko, who moved to Stamford Bridge for £3100 million in the summer, got the start in this game. The Ukrainian had an almost perfect start in the game. By the 16th minute, Shevchenko helped Chelsea take the lead. However, at the end of the second half, the situation changed suddenly. Viduka scored twice in the 81st and 90th minutes to help Middlesbrough. A reversal was staged.
Chelsea lost. Arsenal and Liverpool, who were tied in the first round, both won this round. However, Manchester United, which has won two consecutive victories, took the opportunity to expand their lead. advantage took the lead.
***********
Three days later, Li Rui and Manchester United came to Elland Road Stadium together, the third round of the league, Manchester United VS Leeds United away, the first leg of this season's 'War of the Roses'.
In the first half of the game, Milner's goal helped Leeds United enter the intermission with a 1-0 lead.
During the intermission, Li Rui chatted with former friends Milner and Alan Lennon in the corridor of the dressing room. Leeds United also recruited troops this summer, showing enough ambition.Eddie Gray finally brought the long-awaited Morientes to Elland Road Stadium. However, in today's game, the Spanish center missed the game due to influenza.
After the start of the second half of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo first staged a long-distance attack, scored a wonderful goal, and evened the score.
Then, in the 81st minute of the game, Li Rui took advantage of a corner kick to receive a corner kick from Carrick and scored with a header, 2:1!Manchester United reversed the score.
After scoring the goal, Li Rui just hugged his teammates and did not celebrate the goal too much. For Leeds United and Elland Road Stadium, Li Rui has always been grateful.
At this time, there seemed to be a 'split' in the stands of the Elland Road Stadium. Some fans booed, but the vast majority of the fans remained silent. For the talented striker of arch-enemy Manchester United, their mood is quite complicated.Although the fans knew that Li Rui was sold by Leeds United in exchange for money, seeing the former 'favorite' now wearing a red Manchester United jersey and scoring goals at Elland Road Stadium is really emotional.
***********
"Who's Stopping Them?" ! ! "
After three league rounds, Manchester United won three consecutive victories, scored 10 goals and conceded only 1 goal, leading the standings. This also made the English media exclaim the terrifying strength Manchester United has shown since the start of this season.I also began to figure out which team could cause trouble for this red chariot that was running at full speed.
Next, in the fourth round of the league, Manchester United will face Tottenham Hotspur at home. Although this game considers that Manchester United may reserve strength for the first group stage of the next Champions League, Tottenham Hotspur It doesn't seem to be a problem for Manchester United.
what's next?
After the Champions League match in the middle of the week after the fourth round of the league, Manchester United will welcome Arsenal at their home stadium, Old Trafford. This is where the excitement of the media and fans lies.
However, a question raised by The Times is, "Who will stop him?" The Times replaced Manchester United in the headline of the Daily Mirror with Li Rui, regarding the crazy state of Manchester United's No. 10, "The Times" used three consecutive words of "horror" to describe it, and believed that Arsenal's defense could really stop this young man's feet?
***********
It is indeed terrifying! !
Scoring 5 goals in three league games, including Li Rui's 2 goals in the Charity Shield Cup, Li Rui has scored 4 goals in 7 games in the new season. Li Rui has shown since the start of the new season The terrifying state once again made him the focus of attention in European football.
When everyone turned their eyes back from the World Cup in the summer to the top European leagues, many people once again turned their attention to the 21-year-old boy, some experts called beasts and some prestigious former football superstars They sighed at Li Rui's hot state, and also lamented that such a star's absence from the World Cup in the summer is really a loss for the fans and the World Cup.
"Kicker" even listed the number of goals scored by Manchester United in the three rounds of the league plus the Charity Shield, as well as the number of goals scored by Li Rui. The conclusions drawn make everyone understand more intuitively Yes, the importance of Manchester United's No. 10 to this giant team.
In these four games, Manchester United scored a total of 13 goals, showing a chilling offensive ability, and Li Rui scored 7 goals alone! ! !
The number of goals scored by Li Rui alone accounted for more than half of the goals scored by the Manchester United team. What a terrifying phenomenon. In addition, Li Rui had two assists in these four games. Calculated in this way, 13 of Manchester United's 9 goals were directly related to Li Rui! !
In a word, Li Rui once again became the focus of attention in Europe after being 'forgotten' for a summer. At this time, although the Premier League has started, the transfer market has not yet closed. Rumors of his transfer have also become popular, and the media is even more generous with praise for this young man.
***********
Therefore, many media and experts compare Li Rui with some forwards in history. However, unlike Manchester United fans who like to compare Li Rui with Cantona, in European football, the more common The point is that Li Rui is more like Arsenal's French star Thierry Henry.
Both of them are fast, have good foot skills, are good at long-distance raids, and have tricky shooting skills.There is also a good free kick footwork.
However, some media pointed out that Li Rui's impact in the penalty area is stronger than that of Henry, and Manchester United's No. 10's header ability is not weak, which is what the King of Highbury lacks.
"Team Daily" even pointed out that Li Rui's comprehensive characteristics are very similar to that of the legendary AC Milan star Basten. Now, the red and black fans are also excited. After Puchenko, everyone knew that AC Milan needed a new striker, and the story of "looking for a new Basten" was rumored in the hearts of Rossoneri fans year after year.
***********
Of course, Li Rui has heard about these media comments. To be honest, it is impossible for him to be unhappy. Both Henry and Basten are well-deserved football superstars.
Henry is one of the most outstanding shooters in football today, and Basten has become a legend, which is the most noble honor that a shooter can be positioned.
It can be said that these evaluations are already quite high for Li Rui. Although he won the Premier League Golden Boot and the Champions League Golden Boot last season, and also broke the single-season scoring record in the Champions Cup, Li Rui is indeed recognized by everyone. However, after all, this is only one or two seasons of performance. You must know that it is not just one or two seasons for a star, but also his career. It takes at least five years and as many as 10 years of accumulation and precipitation.
Therefore, although Li Rui is happy, he is still a little sober. It is interesting to say that what keeps him sober is Li Rui's pursuit of the Champions Cup. Motivation to work hard.
Li Rui has long been no stranger to these flattery from the media.
Football is like that, the winner wins the game, if you win the game and you do well, you're instantly admired.But if you don't perform well, you will be thrown down hard immediately.Li Rui has seen this kind of thing a lot, so he doesn't care much about the evaluation of him by the unexpected world.
If the media reporters want to interview him, as long as the club agrees, Li Rui is still very cooperative, but he never takes the reporters' things seriously.At most, Li Rui's children's shoes sometimes present Jessica with a report of praise from the media. The two readers "relish" the news of Manchester United's No. 10. It's not a kind of relaxation and pastime.
***********
On August 2006, 8, in London, England, the Premier League Professional Football Association (PFA) held the annual awards ceremony celebration party scene.
"Let's congratulate Mr. Li Rui for being the best player in the English Premier League in the 2004-2005 season!!!"
The Premier League Professional Players Association (PFA) held the annual awards ceremony to celebrate the evening scene. The host John Cole handed the trophy symbolizing the best player to Li Rui's hand.
"Last season, this young man wowed the fans and the picky judges with one goal after another and I have to say, boy, you did a good job. I'm not a Manchester United fan, but I'm happy. Presenting this award to you personally, you have brought joy to the fans with your outstanding performance, of course - the league championship trophy is real..."
"Wait a minute... Mr. Cole."
The one who spoke was England football legend Wright, the adoptive father of Chelsea star Wright Phillips, dressed up energetically today. He cleared his throat, first nodded to the host John Cole, and then smiled at Li Rui for a moment.
"Can I ask Li a question?" Before Li Rui could open his mouth, this Mr. Wright continued on his own, "Last season, Manchester United was double-killed by Manchester City-is this what you are doing? What about the regrets from last season?"
The annual awards ceremony of the Premier League Professional Players League (PFA) is not as serious as imagined. It is a happy moment for the awards of last season. Some guests will also ask some tricky questions to enhance the atmosphere. , to embarrass the winners, of course, these questions are still within the acceptable range - the premise is that the person being questioned is not a bad tempered person.For example, now, if the person standing on the stage to receive the award is as violent as Roy Keane, the old Wright would not ask such a question.
This is entirely based on people. It seems that Li Rui is still regarded as a rookie. It is no wonder that this is the first time for Li Rui to stand at the annual awards ceremony celebration party held by the Premier League Professional Players Association (PFA) .
"Er—that should be answered by Lee himself."
John Cole handed the microphone to Li Rui, and Li Rui barely restrained the urge to run away. However, looking at Wright's fat face, Li Rui had a feeling that he wanted to smash the trophy in his hand to this Seeing the impulsive look on the old man's face, he gritted his teeth and decided that when he met Wright Jr. in the league, he would give him a good repair. Don't get angry at the old guy, just pay the father's debt.
Li Rui showed a gentle smile to the camera lens, and he even showed a small canine tooth, "Thanks to the England Professionals Committee, thanks to the Professional Players League, for being able to win this award, first of all, I would like to thank my teammates, we are a collective, we This award is due to the contributions of our partners—”
Seeing Li Rui talking eloquently with a smile on his face, but not answering his question just now, Old Wright couldn't sit still, he interrupted Li Rui again and said, "Li—you haven't..."
Li Rui smiled kindly at Old Wright, and he could even see a dimple, "It's really regrettable what happened last season, but this season, we won't give Manchester City any chance... By the way, Mr. Wright." Li Rui looked at Old Wright while talking.
The latter waited for Li Rui's next words.
Li Rui showed a 'conspiracy' smile, "Do you need a ticket for the 14th round of the league?"
Hahahaha——The scene was stunned for a moment, and then there was a lot of cheers. In the 14th round of the league, Manchester United VS Chelsea at home. If there is no accident, Little Wright will play the game. Li Rui clearly said that he must be good.' Fix 'Little Wright.
Old Wright was also taken aback, and then he also smiled, but the smile was a bit awkward. He originally wanted to make Li Rui happy, but he didn't expect that this kid was not easy to bully.
At this time, many Manchester United fans in front of the TV shouted at the top of their voices, applauding Li Rui's answer, "That's beautiful, Li!!"
The Premier League Professional Players' Association (PFA) held its annual awards ceremony gala, which was broadcast live across England...
***********
The headline on the front page of the sports section of The Times the next day read—
"Confident Li": "—the confident smile of this 21-year-old boy, telling everyone that this will be his season..." Accompanied by the fact that Li Rui won the trophy of the best player in the Premier League last season In the photo, in the photo, Li Rui is holding the trophy, smiling so confidently...
(End of this chapter)
After the Charity Shield, the curtain of the Premier League is about to begin.
For Chinese fans, there is good news now. Due to Li Rui's increasingly outstanding performance at Manchester United, domestic fans are increasingly calling for CCTV to broadcast the Premier League live. season's Premier League broadcast rights.
For CCTV's rare good deed, but fans don't appreciate it. The most widely circulated version on the Internet is that CCTV is finally willing to spend money to do practical things this time. A retired old leader is a senior fan. You can watch the football comfortably, but the leader is a fan of Li Rui, but he found that CCTV did not broadcast the Premier League game live. The old leader was furious. He called Jiang Ping from CCTV and angrily said, "Why not? Live broadcast of Premier League games, you melons, watching football is a major event, it is the spiritual and cultural needs of ordinary people, is there anything more important than meeting the needs of the people?"
Ever since, CCTV began to broadcast the Premier League live.
Of course, this is all a joke, and it cannot withstand scrutiny, not to mention whether there is such an old leader. It is not easy for an old leader to watch football. The rare joy of the Chinese fans who were tortured to go crazy during the selection of the Chinese team for the World Championships.
At the very least, Wen Xiaohan is the beneficiary of this incident. She has been a senior since the beginning of school, and has been busy looking for a job. There is very little homework in her senior year, which also makes Wen Xiaohan, who has always been restless about her studies Time is waiting for Li Rui in front of the TV every weekend.This infatuated girl, even though she knows that her brother already has a girlfriend and is a Hollywood actress, but she still clings to the thread of love in her heart, clinging to the hard training that maybe she is destined to never take over.
***********
On August [-]th, [-], Suzhou was as hot as a steamer. Wen Xiaohan had already returned to school early. She was in her senior year. She and her roommate were renting a house outside. The air conditioner was a bit cold. Open the window , You can vaguely see the flickering shadow of the pagoda of Hanshan Temple.
"The game is about to start. We saw that the players have come out of the dressing room. This is the first game of the new season for Manchester United. The whole team of Manchester United also hopes to get off to a good start. Because Manchester United's game is this round. It was played later, in the previous game that had already ended, Arsenal had a draw against Aston Villa at home, Liverpool was also tied away by Sheffield United, and now there is only the next game left for Manchester United The home game against Fulham, and the home game between Chelsea and Manchester City in the early hours of Monday morning, if Manchester United can get the door open, they will maintain a good leading position at the beginning of the new season."
Lu Jianhong’s voice came from the TV, and the game was about to start. Wen Xiaohan hurriedly closed the window, drew the curtains, climbed onto the bed, and covered the game with a small blanket with a cartoon image of Mickey Mouse on it. The weather was hot, The air conditioner had to be turned on, and she couldn't blow it on, so she had to cover it with a blanket.
On the TV screen, Li Rui was chatting and laughing with his teammates. What surprised everyone was that Li Rui had shaved his head. There was no news about this before.
"Huh? We saw that Li Rui shaved his head. This—this should be he just shaved his head before the game. What does it mean? Start all over again? Manchester United's performance last season was not bad...haha However, I hope Li Rui's new hairstyle can bring him good luck in the first game of the new season." Lu Jianhong said with a smile.
"It's so ugly..." Wen Xiaohan curled her lips and muttered that she was still angry. Li Rui didn't meet her when she returned to China in the summer. Wen Xiaohan wanted to see Jessica with her own eyes. I missed the Olympic summer camp organized by the school.
***********
It really made Lu Jianhong guess that Li Rui's glorious hairstyle was born at noon on the day of the competition. When he appeared in front of his teammates with a [-]-watt light bulb on his head, everyone was surprised. Then they were all overjoyed.
Rooney, who was unable to play in this game because of the suspension, circled around Li Rui, clicked his tongue twice, then put his arms around Li Rui pretending to be intimate, and said with a wink in a low voice, "Tell me, are you broken in love?" Did you go to a nightclub and be discovered by Jessica?!"
Cough cough—— Li Rui gave the little fat man a hard look. What is he pretending to be in his head? He has a conscience. Li Rui just wants to commemorate with such a gesture. When the new season begins, He said to himself that everything starts from scratch, and he must work hard to win as many championships as possible—I believe that if Ferguson knew Li Rui's wish, the old Scottish man would be very happy.
"Guys, don't get together, take a break, and get ready to go to the stadium." Manchester United assistant coach Queiroz clapped his hands. At this time, he noticed Li Rui's 'new hairstyle'. Queiroz nodded at Li Rui and said, "Li, the hairstyle is nice."
***********
Since it was the first league game of the new season and it was a home game, the Manchester United players also held a short and festive entrance ceremony. Team captain Gary Neville and team vice Giggs held the championship trophy in one hand , walked in front with their heads held high, and behind them, Manchester United players lined up to enter the field. At this time, the players of the visiting team Fulham had not yet entered the field. This occasion obviously did not belong to the fuck.
Amidst the tsunami-like cheers of the fans, Gary Neville lifted the trophy three times.
The game kicked off at 45:[-] p.m. London time. The floodlights at Old Trafford reflected on Li Rui's shiny head, which was a bit dazzling.
The commentators of the Sky TV broadcasting the game were also talking about the bald head of Manchester United's No. 10. Before the game started, Li Rui's bald head suddenly aroused the interest of millions of fans in England. Counting the number of fans all over the world, especially in China, well, Li Rui's brand new hairstyle is absolutely unprecedented in influence. Perhaps, the light bulb factory can consider asking Li Rui to endorse them.
Players from both sides lined up to shake hands, took a group photo, and the captains exchanged team flags. After these routine procedures, the players from both sides dispersed. At 45:2006, with the whistle of the referee Anthony, the first place in the English Premier League in the 2007-[-] season In the first round, Manchester United's home game against Fulham began.
"I hope that Li's new hairstyle can bring him good luck—I hope the goals will come sooner, haha, this is also the wish of the fans who have been waiting for a summer." At this time, Taibi said.
***********
The goals did come quickly, and Li Rui quickly shifted everyone's attention from his 'hairdo' to his feet.
In the third minute of the game, Fulham right-back Diop fouled Cassano, and Manchester United quickly sent a free kick.
Scholes bent down to stop the football, and then kicked the football out. After Cristiano Ronaldo got the ball, he stepped on the football, looked at the situation in the penalty area, and suddenly picked up the football with his toes.
It was a kick and the ball flew high over the heads of the Fulham defenders and then flew into the penalty area.
Relying on his strong body, Cassano jumped in front of Fulham defender Pierce who was defending him in the penalty area. In free time, Fulham defender Frank Quedreux did not cover Li Rui closely, which was enough for a shooter of Li Rui's level.
Sure enough, Li Rui lived up to Cassano's trust. He jumped in from the back row, and then jumped high, making a powerful dash to the top in the air!
Because Cristiano Ronaldo's pick pass was very sudden, Cassano did not directly attack the goal, and his header ferry also made Fulham's defense a bit unexpected, so Frank Quedreux's marking of Li Rui was not strict. When Li Rui suddenly jumped in like a leopard and headed the goal, Frank Quedreux was shocked and could only watch Li Rui's header. From his point of view, a The shiny bald head made close contact with the ball, which even made the Fulham defender a little dizzy. No way, Li Rui's bald head is indeed a bit dazzling!
Li Rui's header is quite tricky.Although Fulham goalkeeper Nimi tried his best to save it, he still couldn't save the header that went straight to the back post of the goal!
************
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! Manchester United lead Fulham 1-0!! Only 4 minutes into the game! Li Rui scored his first league goal of the season!! This is also Manchester United's first goal of the season! He helped Manchester United get off to a great start to the new season! Perfect!"
"1:0!!! Haha, Li's goal, after waiting for a summer, we saw LI'S again——GOAL!!!!"
The commentator was roaring, and at this time, the entire stadium erupted into cheers like a volcanic eruption.
After scoring the goal, Li Rui seemed very excited. He even ran two steps in excitement and then performed two somersaults, which blew up the entire stadium.
For 73 days, in the summer of the World Cup, Li Rui could only watch his teammates in front of the TV playing on the stage of the World Cup. He was going crazy.Although Li Rui also scored goals in the warm-up match and the Charity Shield before, it wasn't until this time that Li Rui really felt that the new season had begun!
He wants to vent the regret of missing the World Cup and the passion that has been suppressed for a long time in the new season!
All the heroes who participated in the World Cup? ! !are you ready?Here is my place! !
The passion that Li Rui showed after scoring a goal surprised the commentators. However, thinking that this young man always seems to be so passionate, he was relieved. Yes, a shooter needs this kind of goal as his life. Passion of the gene.
"Goal, Li Rui made a good start for Manchester United in the new season. This goal is so beautiful!! Li Rui looked very excited after the goal. This year is the World Cup year. For those who did not participate in the World Cup For Li Rui, the vacation is a bit too long, he is obviously 'suffocated'." Lu Jianhong looked at the excited Li Rui, but he said it very aptly, but Lu Jianhong himself was also very excited. CCTV finally broadcast the Premier League match. The commentator is also happy, after all, seeing Li Rui's wonderful performance with his own eyes is different from commenting on other games, so proud! !
**********
Ferguson on the bench shook his fist. Manchester United's first games in recent seasons have been very difficult. Today's game was able to score so early, which made the old Scottish man feel very good.
After Manchester United scored the second goal and extended the score to 2:0, Ferguson even sat on the coach's bench, crossed his legs, and whispered something to Queiroz next to him.
Less than 10 minutes after Li Rui's goal, Manchester United's second goal also came, although there was an element of luck in this goal.
Scholes' long-range shot was blocked by Felipe with his butt out of the penalty area. With his back to the goal, Li Rui knocked the football back to Cristiano Ronaldo. Manchester United's number 7 passed Diop and Brown in a row, and then A long oblique pass hoists the football into the penalty area.
In the penalty area, Li Rui jumped up from the front point, but failed to touch the football. However, this also interfered with Fulham's defense. The football stopped, and when the ball hit the ground, he leaned against Lamo behind him, turned around forcibly, did not bring Lamo up to block, and faced the falling football, he just hit the goal with one kick!
After the football was drawn, the speed of the ball was not fast due to the low power of the shot. However, after the football suddenly jumped up in front of the goal, it hit the outstretched leg of the defender Pierce who was desperately returning to the defense, and suddenly changed the line!
Fulham goalkeeper Nimi was dumbfounded. He didn't expect the ball to hit his teammate's leg and change direction. He could only watch the football roll into the goal for the second time in 10 minutes. This feeling is really uncomfortable—— A wave of frustration flooded the poor goalkeeper's heart.
"GOOOOOOOOAL!!! Cassano! Cassano! Manchester United!!! They have already led Fulham 2-0! Their first game of the new season went so well!!" The commentator shouted , seems to be a little lamenting the good luck of the Manchester United team. After scoring a goal at the beginning of the game, there will be such a refraction goal.
However, the commentator also knows that any luck is based on strength. The strong offensive shown by the Manchester United team after the start of the game made the Fulham people tired of coping.
"This Manchester United team is stronger than last season -" Lineker exclaimed.
"That's right, Gary!!!" Manchester United fans in front of the TV yelled loudly holding their wine glasses. The game had only gone on for 15 minutes, and the team had already led 2-0. .
***********
After the goal, Cassano also seemed very excited. He rushed to the sidelines, put his foot on the billboard, and then waved his right arm towards the sky.
This summer is not a good memory for Cassano. Lippi was excluded from the squad of the Italian national team and failed to participate in the World Cup. Italy finally won the Hercules again after 24 years Cup, although Cassano was also happy for Italy to win the championship, but he was missing himself among those who won the trophy, and the young man in Barry was still quite uncomfortable.
It can be said that this summer, Cassano is quite depressed.
…………
When Cassano was celebrating his goal wildly, the TV cameras took time to show Rooney in the box in the stands. The little fat man was suspended for this round and could only watch from the stands.
The intention of the live broadcast is obvious. Although Cassano scored a goal is something to be happy about, but, as a competitor, seeing Cassano's performance at the beginning of the season is so good, Rooney is definitely not happy, and he is suspended for three games. Although there are not many games, who can guarantee that Rooney will be able to regain the main position from Cassano after the suspension is lifted.
Like Li Rui and Cassano, although Rooney participated in the World Cup, the fat man's first experience in the world wave is definitely not a good memory. Therefore, Rooney is holding his breath and wants to perform well in the new season. However, the little fat man did not expect that a red card in a warm-up match would also bring him a suspension penalty, so he had no choice but to give up his main position.
Looking at Cassano's excited smiling face, the little fat man was a little depressed.
***********
The head coach of Fulham, Mark Hughes, looked as if his father had died. After only 15 minutes of the game, they fell behind 0:2. The opponent was still Manchester United. How can this game be played? !
His eyes were fixed on the night sky at Old Trafford, as if there, God would tell him where the way out!
Soon God told the poor gentleman a wise saying——
The game is like being raped, since you are powerless to resist, just enjoy it.
***********
In the 39th minute of the game, Fulham won an excellent free kick in the frontcourt.However, Fulham midfielder Mott's shot hit the wall, and Carrick immediately instigated a counterattack with a big foot after receiving the ball.
Cristiano Ronaldo made a high-speed breakthrough with the ball from the side. After breaking through the defense of Diop and Brad in a row, he hoisted the football into the penalty area, and then everyone saw a flash of red light, and the football was already in the net. Jumping around.
He dived to hit the goal with a header. After seeing the football go into the net, Li Rui opened his arms and ran to the sidelines when he landed. Then he dived and glided again, just like a real bomber.
"GOOOOOOOOOAL!!! GOOOOOOOAL --!! This is -- Li!!!!!! He's a bomber!!! He scored the second goal of the game!!" The commentator said It was Li Rui who saw the goal. It was a dive-bombing header. It was so beautiful! !
Amidst the cheers that were about to explode at Old Trafford, Cassano followed Li Rui and swooped down, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo, Carrick...
At the end of the first half, Manchester United 3-0 Fulham, the score was stretched to three goals!This time it was Li Rui's goal again. He is now in surprisingly good condition!
"Long live! Lee! Long live! Manchester United!!!" At this time, the entire stadium reached a climax of today's game, with roars and cheers one after another. The few Fulham fans who came to the away game were already extremely frustrated. In this game, Fulham can't have any chances.The Fulham fans looked at the guy wearing the No. 10 jersey with complicated expressions. What a terrible guy this is! !
***********
On the central stand of the die-hard fan area at Old Trafford, at this time, a banner was hung: "Lee, we are very happy because of your goal!!"
Very simple sentence!
These words represent the aspirations of all Manchester United fans. The fans are undoubtedly happy. This young man who has just passed his 21st birthday has brought them joy with his goals one after another. Many champions! !
In the minds of some fans, Li Rui is after Cantona, the Manchester United team has been looking for the king for many years. Although, Li Rui respects Cantona when facing the media, and he himself is very humble However, the fans really think so, especially in the face of Li Rui's nearly perfect answer last season, the fans have more reason to believe that this young man will bring countless glory and championships to the team—as if A tough French guy named Eric Cantona once did that! !
***********
The camera is also aimed at the stands. In this game, Cantona just came to the scene to watch the game. At this time, Cantona was sitting on the rostrum, and Manchester United's 'old king' watched the red tide rolling in the stands So, vaguely yesterday.
"I saw a fighting Manchester United team, we were always so hungry for goals and wins! It's a Manchester United tradition - banners in the stands? Lee should be totally proud of himself, he did a great job - yes , I was also very happy when he scored a goal. Haha." After the game, Cantona said in an interview with the BBC.
In the end, in this game, Manchester United beat Fulham 5:0 at home. Cristiano Ronaldo took advantage of a free kick at the beginning of the second half and scored directly, 4:0! !
During stoppage time of the whole game, Giuseppe Rossi, who came on as a substitute for Li Rui, scored with a header, 5:0! !
Manchester United's powerful attack group broke out in an all-round way, and Fulham was unfortunately sacrificed by Manchester United.
…………
In the game that ended later, Terry, Lampard and Didier Drogba each scored a goal. Chelsea beat Manchester City 3-0 at home.
In this way, after the first round of the league, Manchester United, which beat Fulham 5:0, made a good start to the league and occupied the top position. Chelsea's goal difference ranked second.
In the scorer list, Li Rui scored twice and Portsmouth's Kanu tied for the top scorer list. The Nigerian striker also scored twice to help Portsmouth 3-0 Blackburn at home.
***********
This week is a week of double matches, three days later, the second round of the league.
Manchester United, who came to the Valley Stadium, beat Charlton 3-0 away.Li Rui scored twice again in the game, and the other goal was scored by Solskjaer who came off the bench.
Manchester United scored four goals in two games on the 10th, and the state shown made everyone feel horrible.The media also teased after the game that Charlton is Li Rui's favorite team. Indeed, even at Leeds United, Li Rui scored three goals at home and away against Charlton. When Li Rui faced Charlton, the average number of goals in a game was close to two.
Manchester United won, which is not surprising, but Chelsea lost this round, which is indeed a complete upset.
In Chelsea's away game against Middlesbrough, Shevchenko, who moved to Stamford Bridge for £3100 million in the summer, got the start in this game. The Ukrainian had an almost perfect start in the game. By the 16th minute, Shevchenko helped Chelsea take the lead. However, at the end of the second half, the situation changed suddenly. Viduka scored twice in the 81st and 90th minutes to help Middlesbrough. A reversal was staged.
Chelsea lost. Arsenal and Liverpool, who were tied in the first round, both won this round. However, Manchester United, which has won two consecutive victories, took the opportunity to expand their lead. advantage took the lead.
***********
Three days later, Li Rui and Manchester United came to Elland Road Stadium together, the third round of the league, Manchester United VS Leeds United away, the first leg of this season's 'War of the Roses'.
In the first half of the game, Milner's goal helped Leeds United enter the intermission with a 1-0 lead.
During the intermission, Li Rui chatted with former friends Milner and Alan Lennon in the corridor of the dressing room. Leeds United also recruited troops this summer, showing enough ambition.Eddie Gray finally brought the long-awaited Morientes to Elland Road Stadium. However, in today's game, the Spanish center missed the game due to influenza.
After the start of the second half of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo first staged a long-distance attack, scored a wonderful goal, and evened the score.
Then, in the 81st minute of the game, Li Rui took advantage of a corner kick to receive a corner kick from Carrick and scored with a header, 2:1!Manchester United reversed the score.
After scoring the goal, Li Rui just hugged his teammates and did not celebrate the goal too much. For Leeds United and Elland Road Stadium, Li Rui has always been grateful.
At this time, there seemed to be a 'split' in the stands of the Elland Road Stadium. Some fans booed, but the vast majority of the fans remained silent. For the talented striker of arch-enemy Manchester United, their mood is quite complicated.Although the fans knew that Li Rui was sold by Leeds United in exchange for money, seeing the former 'favorite' now wearing a red Manchester United jersey and scoring goals at Elland Road Stadium is really emotional.
***********
"Who's Stopping Them?" ! ! "
After three league rounds, Manchester United won three consecutive victories, scored 10 goals and conceded only 1 goal, leading the standings. This also made the English media exclaim the terrifying strength Manchester United has shown since the start of this season.I also began to figure out which team could cause trouble for this red chariot that was running at full speed.
Next, in the fourth round of the league, Manchester United will face Tottenham Hotspur at home. Although this game considers that Manchester United may reserve strength for the first group stage of the next Champions League, Tottenham Hotspur It doesn't seem to be a problem for Manchester United.
what's next?
After the Champions League match in the middle of the week after the fourth round of the league, Manchester United will welcome Arsenal at their home stadium, Old Trafford. This is where the excitement of the media and fans lies.
However, a question raised by The Times is, "Who will stop him?" The Times replaced Manchester United in the headline of the Daily Mirror with Li Rui, regarding the crazy state of Manchester United's No. 10, "The Times" used three consecutive words of "horror" to describe it, and believed that Arsenal's defense could really stop this young man's feet?
***********
It is indeed terrifying! !
Scoring 5 goals in three league games, including Li Rui's 2 goals in the Charity Shield Cup, Li Rui has scored 4 goals in 7 games in the new season. Li Rui has shown since the start of the new season The terrifying state once again made him the focus of attention in European football.
When everyone turned their eyes back from the World Cup in the summer to the top European leagues, many people once again turned their attention to the 21-year-old boy, some experts called beasts and some prestigious former football superstars They sighed at Li Rui's hot state, and also lamented that such a star's absence from the World Cup in the summer is really a loss for the fans and the World Cup.
"Kicker" even listed the number of goals scored by Manchester United in the three rounds of the league plus the Charity Shield, as well as the number of goals scored by Li Rui. The conclusions drawn make everyone understand more intuitively Yes, the importance of Manchester United's No. 10 to this giant team.
In these four games, Manchester United scored a total of 13 goals, showing a chilling offensive ability, and Li Rui scored 7 goals alone! ! !
The number of goals scored by Li Rui alone accounted for more than half of the goals scored by the Manchester United team. What a terrifying phenomenon. In addition, Li Rui had two assists in these four games. Calculated in this way, 13 of Manchester United's 9 goals were directly related to Li Rui! !
In a word, Li Rui once again became the focus of attention in Europe after being 'forgotten' for a summer. At this time, although the Premier League has started, the transfer market has not yet closed. Rumors of his transfer have also become popular, and the media is even more generous with praise for this young man.
***********
Therefore, many media and experts compare Li Rui with some forwards in history. However, unlike Manchester United fans who like to compare Li Rui with Cantona, in European football, the more common The point is that Li Rui is more like Arsenal's French star Thierry Henry.
Both of them are fast, have good foot skills, are good at long-distance raids, and have tricky shooting skills.There is also a good free kick footwork.
However, some media pointed out that Li Rui's impact in the penalty area is stronger than that of Henry, and Manchester United's No. 10's header ability is not weak, which is what the King of Highbury lacks.
"Team Daily" even pointed out that Li Rui's comprehensive characteristics are very similar to that of the legendary AC Milan star Basten. Now, the red and black fans are also excited. After Puchenko, everyone knew that AC Milan needed a new striker, and the story of "looking for a new Basten" was rumored in the hearts of Rossoneri fans year after year.
***********
Of course, Li Rui has heard about these media comments. To be honest, it is impossible for him to be unhappy. Both Henry and Basten are well-deserved football superstars.
Henry is one of the most outstanding shooters in football today, and Basten has become a legend, which is the most noble honor that a shooter can be positioned.
It can be said that these evaluations are already quite high for Li Rui. Although he won the Premier League Golden Boot and the Champions League Golden Boot last season, and also broke the single-season scoring record in the Champions Cup, Li Rui is indeed recognized by everyone. However, after all, this is only one or two seasons of performance. You must know that it is not just one or two seasons for a star, but also his career. It takes at least five years and as many as 10 years of accumulation and precipitation.
Therefore, although Li Rui is happy, he is still a little sober. It is interesting to say that what keeps him sober is Li Rui's pursuit of the Champions Cup. Motivation to work hard.
Li Rui has long been no stranger to these flattery from the media.
Football is like that, the winner wins the game, if you win the game and you do well, you're instantly admired.But if you don't perform well, you will be thrown down hard immediately.Li Rui has seen this kind of thing a lot, so he doesn't care much about the evaluation of him by the unexpected world.
If the media reporters want to interview him, as long as the club agrees, Li Rui is still very cooperative, but he never takes the reporters' things seriously.At most, Li Rui's children's shoes sometimes present Jessica with a report of praise from the media. The two readers "relish" the news of Manchester United's No. 10. It's not a kind of relaxation and pastime.
***********
On August 2006, 8, in London, England, the Premier League Professional Football Association (PFA) held the annual awards ceremony celebration party scene.
"Let's congratulate Mr. Li Rui for being the best player in the English Premier League in the 2004-2005 season!!!"
The Premier League Professional Players Association (PFA) held the annual awards ceremony to celebrate the evening scene. The host John Cole handed the trophy symbolizing the best player to Li Rui's hand.
"Last season, this young man wowed the fans and the picky judges with one goal after another and I have to say, boy, you did a good job. I'm not a Manchester United fan, but I'm happy. Presenting this award to you personally, you have brought joy to the fans with your outstanding performance, of course - the league championship trophy is real..."
"Wait a minute... Mr. Cole."
The one who spoke was England football legend Wright, the adoptive father of Chelsea star Wright Phillips, dressed up energetically today. He cleared his throat, first nodded to the host John Cole, and then smiled at Li Rui for a moment.
"Can I ask Li a question?" Before Li Rui could open his mouth, this Mr. Wright continued on his own, "Last season, Manchester United was double-killed by Manchester City-is this what you are doing? What about the regrets from last season?"
The annual awards ceremony of the Premier League Professional Players League (PFA) is not as serious as imagined. It is a happy moment for the awards of last season. Some guests will also ask some tricky questions to enhance the atmosphere. , to embarrass the winners, of course, these questions are still within the acceptable range - the premise is that the person being questioned is not a bad tempered person.For example, now, if the person standing on the stage to receive the award is as violent as Roy Keane, the old Wright would not ask such a question.
This is entirely based on people. It seems that Li Rui is still regarded as a rookie. It is no wonder that this is the first time for Li Rui to stand at the annual awards ceremony celebration party held by the Premier League Professional Players Association (PFA) .
"Er—that should be answered by Lee himself."
John Cole handed the microphone to Li Rui, and Li Rui barely restrained the urge to run away. However, looking at Wright's fat face, Li Rui had a feeling that he wanted to smash the trophy in his hand to this Seeing the impulsive look on the old man's face, he gritted his teeth and decided that when he met Wright Jr. in the league, he would give him a good repair. Don't get angry at the old guy, just pay the father's debt.
Li Rui showed a gentle smile to the camera lens, and he even showed a small canine tooth, "Thanks to the England Professionals Committee, thanks to the Professional Players League, for being able to win this award, first of all, I would like to thank my teammates, we are a collective, we This award is due to the contributions of our partners—”
Seeing Li Rui talking eloquently with a smile on his face, but not answering his question just now, Old Wright couldn't sit still, he interrupted Li Rui again and said, "Li—you haven't..."
Li Rui smiled kindly at Old Wright, and he could even see a dimple, "It's really regrettable what happened last season, but this season, we won't give Manchester City any chance... By the way, Mr. Wright." Li Rui looked at Old Wright while talking.
The latter waited for Li Rui's next words.
Li Rui showed a 'conspiracy' smile, "Do you need a ticket for the 14th round of the league?"
Hahahaha——The scene was stunned for a moment, and then there was a lot of cheers. In the 14th round of the league, Manchester United VS Chelsea at home. If there is no accident, Little Wright will play the game. Li Rui clearly said that he must be good.' Fix 'Little Wright.
Old Wright was also taken aback, and then he also smiled, but the smile was a bit awkward. He originally wanted to make Li Rui happy, but he didn't expect that this kid was not easy to bully.
At this time, many Manchester United fans in front of the TV shouted at the top of their voices, applauding Li Rui's answer, "That's beautiful, Li!!"
The Premier League Professional Players' Association (PFA) held its annual awards ceremony gala, which was broadcast live across England...
***********
The headline on the front page of the sports section of The Times the next day read—
"Confident Li": "—the confident smile of this 21-year-old boy, telling everyone that this will be his season..." Accompanied by the fact that Li Rui won the trophy of the best player in the Premier League last season In the photo, in the photo, Li Rui is holding the trophy, smiling so confidently...
