During the World Cup, matches in the five major leagues are naturally suspended.
On this night, Chelsea faced their last opponent before the World Cup break: Arsenal.
Because the kickoff time of this game is 8pm Dragon Kingdom time.
So the Olympic Sports Center in Zhongnan City was once again filled with people and the sky was filled with excitement.
Enthusiastic citizens of Central South China and fans from surrounding cities cheered for Chu Xiaoran and Chelsea while discussing the upcoming World Cup in small groups.
As citizens and fans of Central and South China, they are more enthusiastic about Chu Xiaoran than fans in other provinces and cities.
When people from Zhongnan City go out and talk about football-related topics, who doesn’t hold their head high and look proud and proud?
"Chu Xiaoran, we are from Zhongnan."
With the passage of time and the completion of Chelsea Football School, football has become a golden business card of Zhongnan City.
By the way, the event held at the Olympic Sports Center with tens of thousands of people watching the game has become the top gathering event for football fans in the entire Dragon Kingdom.
Only Rongjiang Village, which has just emerged recently, can rival Zhongnan City's tens of thousands of spectators.
But in terms of popularity, the event with tens of thousands of people watching the game in Zhongnan City, with the golden name of Chu Xiaoran, is more popular than the Village Super League.
The resulting series of industrial upgrades have put the development of Zhongnan City on a path that has never been seen in domestic cities.
In the hearts of local fans in Zhongnan City, Zhongnan City in the future will be built into a Dragon Kingdom football mecca like Milan, Madrid, Manchester City, Rio de Janeiro and other world-famous football meccas.
Although this idea is exaggerated, it may not be impossible to realize.
After all, in the future, the Chelsea Football School in Zhongnan City will continuously deliver the football talents of the Dragon Kingdom to the top major leagues in the world.
It’s not too much to say that this is the Whampoa Military Academy of the Dragon Kingdom men’s football team, right?

As the voices of the two commentators spread throughout the country, the game at Stamford Bridge officially began.
Masters compete with each other and have strong dialogues.
As soon as the two teams came up, they showed a very good level of competition.
Only 3 minutes into the game, Arsenal won the first corner kick of the game due to the overwhelming attack.
However, their carefully arranged corner kick tactics were easily resolved by everyone at Chelsea.
After receiving the ball, the Chelsea players quickly counterattacked and advanced all the way to Arsenal's penalty area.
But Havertz's shot went slightly over the crossbar and missed the first goal of the game.

The game's breaking point occurred in the 72nd minute of the second half.
Chelsea's frontcourt throw-in was taken.
Chu Xiaoran dribbled the ball in from the right and broke through.
While passing two defensive players, he keenly observed that his teammate Sterling had a shooting opportunity and angle.
He immediately made a precise pass to the ground and passed the ball to Sterling's feet.
Sterling understood it and was already ready to shoot before the football even reached his feet.
Facing the Arsenal goalkeeper who reacted quickly, Sterling touched the ball with his toes, flicked the ball lightly, and completed the goal.
The score on the field was rewritten to 1:0.
After conceding the goal, Arsenal made three substitutions and fought back with all their strength.
Chelsea responded well and ruthlessly stifled their counterattack momentum.
In the end, relying on the only goal in the game, Chelsea defeated Arsenal by one goal at home, thus winning this very important strong dialogue.
At the same time, it also pushed its league points to 37 points, temporarily leading the standings.
