Chapter 48 Asian Footballer
Author: You Wei Yanmei
After the change of sides, coach Henk made a substitution adjustment, replaced Jason Aldridge and replaced a central defender, intending to strengthen the midfield defense, but still left Wang Feng on the field to restrain his opponent.
The team's formation also changed from 442 to 4231.
Espanyol also made substitution adjustments. While replacing a defender, a high center forward was replaced to attack Genk's defense line, and there might not be a chance to equalize the score.
The home team launched a fierce offensive as soon as the ball kicked off. With the encouragement of the home fans, they also got several good opportunities. Unfortunately, the goalkeeper of Genk performed very bravely and staged a series of anti-sky saves to protect the city.
lose.
In the 74th minute, Henk intercepted the ball in the backcourt and launched a defensive counterattack. Gareth Barry dribbled the ball and broke through to the midfield. He passed a strange arc ball with his outside instep. The ball crossed the defender in the middle and came to the right.
Under the feet of Wang Feng on the road.
Wang Feng used his speed to get rid of the defensive player and dribbled into the penalty area. Espanyol goalkeeper Eusibio Bernhard decisively attacked and blocked. Wang Feng raised his right foot and shot. Bernhard quickly fell to the ground to save the ball.
, but unexpectedly, Wang Feng just swung the ball to the right, and swung the ball to the right with his right foot, and passed the goalkeeper.
Facing the empty goalkeeper Wang Feng calmly pushed the shot, the defender who returned to defense fell to the ground and slipped the ball, but he could not catch up, so he could only slide into the goal with the ball.
2:0, Wang Feng scored another goal, and Genke almost secured the victory!
The Spanish generals looked at the visiting team members who were rushing to celebrate, and their eyes revealed a hint of confusion. Why did they lose the ball again? Is there still a chance to win? Their fighting spirit and confidence were destroyed by this goal, and they were in their minds.
All I thought of was things like not winning this game, and there is still a chance in the next game.
After the game started again, Espanyol's offensive slowed down. Henk's defense line also breathed a sigh of relief and continued to play steadily. In the 87th minute, Henk tore open the opponent's defense line again by continuously turning his feet.
Carl Bass in the midfield passed to Wang Feng on the right. Wang Feng followed the situation and made a cross from the bottom. Barry at the front point jumped up and headed the ball. Bernhard stretched his body to the extreme and touched the ball with his fingertips.
The ball drew the bottom line along the far corner of the goal.
Neither side created a threatening attack afterwards. The referee blew the whistle to the end of the game on time. Henk relied on Wang Feng's double score to defeat Espanyol away. With three consecutive wins, he was one round ahead of schedule.
Lock the first place in the group to qualify.
At the post-match press conference, Espanyol coach Wilber Baumbach praised Wang Feng: "His technical level and competitive state are very good. It is hard to believe that Wang Feng is a 17-year-old young player. Our
The defense has no way to deal with him, and I think he is fully capable of playing in the five major leagues."
Henk coach Aimee Anthonys also praised Wang Feng: "The role of the king cannot be ignored. He is the sharp knife on our forward line. The opponent will pay the price if he is not careful."
The domestic CCTV was also very happy. After receiving the video, they invited famous commentators to explain overnight, and then broadcast it on the sports channel the next day.
The fans who watched applauded Wang Feng's performance. They left messages on the forum and sighed that Wang Feng's performance seemed to have surpassed the senior players who went abroad.
"Wang Feng's explosive power and foot skills are also very good," a netizen sighed, "I think he is much better than some international players. Genke's offense is so sharp that he is inseparable from Wang Feng's performance."
Yang Chen's performance in Frankfurt this year is not outstanding. His current appearance and goals are down sharply compared to last season. Like Fan Qiyi, Sun Jihai and others are not strikers, so their performance and progress on the court
The ball is limited.
So everyone has set their sights on Wang Feng, hoping that he will become a banner on the Chinese football forward line. Judging from this development situation, it is almost a foregone conclusion that Wang Feng will log into the five major leagues after the end of this season.
What is even more gratifying is that Wang Feng was selected as the 2000 Asian Footballer for his excellent performance in the previous season and this season. The AFC contacted Wang Feng's agent Francisco Bamond, hoping
He can attend the awards ceremony held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at the end of November.
"You will be the youngest Asian footballer!" Bamond said excitedly on the phone: "Early you were nominated, and your main competitor is Nawaf Timya from Saudi Arabia
Very, this year is the Asian Cup year after all, and Saudi Arabia's performance is also remarkable."
"But Saudi Arabia failed to win the championship in the end, which was a big loss point. Your superb performance was continuous, so he finally won with a slight advantage." Bamond revealed the details, and the winner would have announced at the award ceremony.
, but the AFC was afraid that Wang Feng would not want to attend the scene, so it informed him in advance.
"This is very helpful for expanding your influence in Asia and increasing your business value. I have confirmed with Genk that those few days of the game was the last round of the Europa League, and you locked in the first place in the group in advance, so
The club agrees that you take leave to participate, and they also want you to win this award."
Since Bamond had already confirmed it, Wang Feng would do it according to his arrangement.
In the 15th round of the League, Henk played against Saint Turden at home. Wang Feng was still very active in the game. In the 31st minute, Wang Feng received a pass from midfielder Barry on the right and scored with a man-goal when the defender arrived.
Get rid of it and then cut the penalty area obliquely.
Wang Feng's offensive speed was too fast, and the St. Turden's defense line was a little panicked for a moment, so Wang Feng decisively seized the opportunity and shot outside his left foot, breaking through the door of Gavin Muller's handle.
Wang Feng was replaced shortly after the opening of the second half. Head coach Anthonys considered that he was going to Asia, so he wanted him to take a break. In the end, the score of 1:0 was maintained until the end, and Genk continued to be in the standings.
Beat Anderlecht.
After this game, Wang Feng flew to Kuala Lumpur, where Bamond was already waiting for him. At the same time, CCTV also decided to broadcast the award ceremony live throughout the whole process, because Wang Feng is a popular candidate for Asian footballers, and there are several in China.
Nominations for awards.
The award ceremony of the AFC is relatively simple, not as grand as the World Footballer. There is also a red carpet before the ceremony. After everyone sat down, it officially began.
Wang Feng's position is arranged in the middle of the first row. Next to him are Saudi Arabia's Tim Yat and Japan's Shunsuke Nakamura, who are also popular candidates for this Asian footballer. Wang Feng is not very familiar with them, so he can only
Nodded to each other.
Although Wang Feng was not timid in the football field with tens of thousands of people, he felt very different when sitting here in a suit. In his opinion, he felt like a child forced to pretend to be an adult, and all awards were announced one by one.
At that time, he just hoped to finish it sooner.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Wang Feng, two other players in China have been selected into the best Asian team, namely Jiang Jin and Fan.
