Chapter 168: Coming and Going
It's not that the rivalry doesn't get together, the big game that Jonker is looking forward to will not be long before it happens, for Chelsea it is a battle for revenge, for Jonk it is a wish fulfillment.
With the manager's assurance, Jonk has been full of energy lately.
Towards the end of August, after completing the preliminary shooting in London, Jonk asked the club for a two-day vacation and set off for Huaxia Shanghai to shoot the rest of the film, and at the end of Huaxia's tight two-day trip, he had to report to the national team non-stop.
Therefore, the imaginary trip to China is not so wonderful, and there is no time to savor it, the international metropolis of Huaxia and Shanghai, come and go in a hurry.
However, the shocking scene upon arrival was somewhat unexpected by Jonker.
It was even more popular than the last trip to South Korea, the last time it was the whole Chelsea team, this time all came for Jonker, the garland almost drowned his head, and all kinds of flowers were not enough at all.
The screams came and went, is this the fans of Huaxia! Crazy enough! Of course, Jonk also felt very kind, not a trace of disgust, yes, this is his second country, half of the blood in his body comes from this great country, everything makes him feel kind.
The curious baby has just come out of the crowd of fans and entered the business vehicle under the protection of security personnel, and the next itinerary has been arranged, starting with an endorsement press conference.
At that time, Mendes will also be present, and Jonk thinks that the old boy will hide quietly, and the scene is hot, so he will go to the press conference to meet, in fact, Mendes has already arrived in China a few days earlier. To prepare and coordinate all the work in advance, it is just the arrival of Jonke, the hand-off shopkeeper.
The venue of the press conference was the Shangri-La Hotel, where Jonk was staying, and it was surrounded by various media outlets. The boss of the beverage collective also greeted Jonker at the door.
"Welcome to Huaxia, Mr. Jonker!"
"Xie Luxie's hospitality, I am very happy to come to my hometown!"
After the short greetings, it was time for the media to shoot, and the two shook hands for a long time, allowing the media to take enough pictures.
And those fans screamed. It brings the atmosphere to the extreme, and big stars may not have such a battle.
Huaxia has always been eager to make a breakthrough in the football world, and Jonk is half Chinese. In terms of appearance, it also has an obvious Chinese color, and it can be said that many Chinese people put all the long-awaited and suppressed passions on Jonke.
Of course, Jonke's own conditions are also extremely suitable, and his fluent Chinese is even more amazing. Won a lot of applause.
Many people with Chinese ancestry. Coming to China to pan for gold, speaking a broken Chinese, as soon as he heard it, he knew that it was a temporary learning, but Jonke was different, but from this point of view, as soon as he opened his mouth, he had won everyone's natural favor.
The atmosphere has reached its peak, and there is no need for foreign language coaches. It also made the atmosphere of the scene relaxed and lively, and it was like a happy chatter of my own family.
However, the process of the launch event is very old-fashioned. The first is the signing ceremony, the leader's speech, Jonker's speech, the second part is naturally the media interview time, and the last 10 minutes is the fan interaction time.
Regardless of whether the beauty fans are true or not, the scene is very touching, in the beauty bowing her head and crying, Jonk uses her broad arms to comfort the beauty.
The cliché also has the benefits of being clichéd, and the whole conference was not very brilliant, but all parties were satisfied.
Mendez only officially said a few words to Jonk after the press conference, and it can be seen that this old boy has been busy enough recently, and his eyes are bloodshot.
"Laomen, pay attention to your body! Your flight attendant's secretary is like a wolf! ”
I'll strangle it, Mendes is completely a little resentful expression at the moment, you kid is so tired that he doesn't say a good word, he is sarcastic and sarcastic as soon as he comes up, what a flight attendant, where did the flight attendant come from, it's completely your kid who pulls it hard!
However, Jonk is this tune, Mendes has long been used to it, and you can't be offended if someone else doesn't let you know the way and know the agent, but if you change it to this master, just say a few words, in fact, it's also a concern, and good things won't be said well.
"Hehe, this expression is right! The flight attendant has a happy life! ”
Mendes, who had just adjusted, was defeated by Jonk with a word, and he didn't talk nonsense, and he didn't know what Lu Dao pulled out for a while, so he directly explained the next itinerary.
After saying that, he wanted to leave, but Jonk refused to let him live, so he had to leave after lunch, the atmosphere between the two finally eased, and Mendes finally had a smile, even if you kid still know each other.
You must know that Mendes has been scared of Huaxia's dinner in the past few days, what is it that he drinks, white alcohol? Europeans don't drink it like this, what vodka is also strong liquor, but Mendes always adds a little bit to the mixology, and drinks it directly when he arrives here, my God, the wine is not drunk like this, it is not good, it will call God.
Mendes was really touched by a meal without alcohol, half of the blood was tired, and half of it was drunk raw.
Dinner, immediately is the media interview time, this time is an exclusive interview with CCTV, in the evening began to shoot advertisements, want to go out to see the Shanghai market, there is no door.
The interview was conducted in the hotel, which is the easiest job for Jonke to come to Huaxia, and he can be regarded as exercising to deal with the media, unlike the European media, the Chinese media people are much gentler, and some taboo topics are automatically blocked, and there is no need for Jonke to bother his brains.
It's more about childhood, about football, and about those chaotic private life issues off the field, and I don't ask any questions.
made Jonk have to sigh, it's better for the people in his hometown.
The next is the key work of this trip to Shanghai, advertising shooting, originally a day plus a night, will leave half a day to visit Shanghai, but Qiongke is not the material for shooting advertisements at all, Shengsheng delayed the progress for half a day, and he couldn't delay his own trip, and he couldn't complain about others. The Shanghai market can only say that it will be seen again!
With a small regret, Jonk boarded the plane to Europe and reported to the Portuguese national team. Prepare for the World Cup Qualifiers.
He didn't know at all that after the latest episode of Football Night aired Jonck's special program, the sales of Chinese Chelsea jerseys climbed by 10 percent, what a terrible data, this is just a football show promotion, and even the football series with Nike has also had a lot of sales increases.
Huaxia is a magical land, and they like to make gods. has created a god-like figure in various fields, and in the future, Junk may become a god in the field of football, comparable to Yao Ming in the basketball world.
Arguably. This short trip to China has been gratifying in all aspects, including Chelsea Club, which has made a lot of improvements. It has opened up a huge market in China.
At this time. Jonker, however, trains hard in the national team to prepare for the next game.
There was no trace of fatigue from the journey in him, and as long as he was on the court, Jonk was still the same vigorous existence.
Group 3 of the 2006 World Cup European Qualifiers began a fierce matchup, and the Portuguese national team, which finished first in the group, faced Luxembourg at home.
Facing Luxembourg, who finished bottom of the group without a point, Portugal showed strong attacking power at home, and at the end of the first half, they were already 5-0 up.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick. With two goals remaining, Portugal's new golden partner presented a goalscoring feast for the fans.
The second half begins. The scoring frenzy continued, first with a hat-trick to tie Cristiano Ronaldo's tally, and then with more and more casual kicks, resulting in a 10-0 slaughtering victory.
Portugal is firmly at the top of the group, and it is only a matter of time before they qualify, and in the next round of qualifying, as long as they get a point, Portugal can directly enter the round of 32 of the World Cup in Germany.
Slovakia and Russia, who are in the same group, can only fight for a play-off place in second place.
Back in the league, in the fifth round, Chelsea's opponents are also one of the strong teams in the London Region, Tottenham.
Chelsea took the lead in the city-to-town clash with Tottenham, beating 2-0 after their opponents were sent off. It was also Chelsea's fourth consecutive league win in the new season.
Although they are also in the city of London, Tottenham have enjoyed a time in the Premier League, but their historical record against Chelsea is not ideal.
Tottenham Hotspur last won 1-0 at Stamford Bridge 15 years ago and have not beaten Chelsea on their home turf in 18 years. Jose Mourinho fielded the strongest squad for this game, with some of the main players from the previous round starting again, captain Frank Lampard starting his 150th consecutive Premier League game, and teenager Arjen Robben being unavailable due to injury.
Although they were a cut ahead of Tottenham, Chelsea's advantage was curtailed after the opening kick-off, but that changed in the 25th minute. Tottenham foreign player Mido was directly sent off the field by referee Sdales for elbowing Del Horno during a header, and his departure also directly led to the decline of Tottenham's attacking firepower.
Chelsea's first goal since joining the club was 39 minutes when captain Frank Lampard whipped in a corner from the right and Spanish defender De Horno headed in the middle of the pitch and into the net before hitting the far post. In the second half of the game, Mourinho replaced Ibrahimovic and Wright Jr. in an effort to strengthen the attack. In the 71st minute, Wright Jr. broke through on the right and crossed, and Duff, who followed up in the middle, volleyed, and the ball rebounded and flew into the opponent's goal again.
This may not be the most interesting London derby, but it is the most vendetted London derby! In the league, Tottenham have not beaten Chelsea in 30 games!
Tottenham have made a wonderful start to the season with two wins, one draw and no goals conceded! On last week's trip to Blackburn Rovers, Joel would rather rest Davies and Defoe than just a draw and go all out to change history in the derby!
All of this makes last Saturday's White Deer Trail look extraordinary......
Not winning at White Hart Trail since 1987, Tottenham want to win this game, Joel has a plan and he wants to win too. From the outset, Tottenham were the more proactive side, controlling the tempo on the pitch, while Chelsea were a blank slate that seemed to be torn apart by their opponents in a short period of time.
After drawing away at Blackburn Rovers with a substitute in midweek, Joel fielded himself in the best team for this game. The likes of Davis and Defoe both started. A midfield of Michael Carrick, Davies, Reid and Tynio has been put together by Joel, with Davies' pace and high attacking ability causing plenty of problems for Macalele, who has put Chelsea's attacks to an end in midfield.
On the left, Reid is still active. Finn Teño, on the other hand, has secured his position at right-back after three games. Joel's hope, it seems, is in sight.
And with a whistle, everything came to an abrupt end. Mido was red carded for a stupid elbow move, just 25 minutes into the first half. With 10 to 11, Joel's Chelsea strategy has become meaningless at this point. What was originally difficult for both Mido and Defoe to do, now only Defoe is left, think about Thierry Henry's situation six days ago and Arsenal's worst ending. Joel's heart was already half cold.
Not to mention that after 15 minutes, Chelsea had their first chance to take the lead, and it was Mido's previous foul on Del Bush who scored. Orno. This is already a bit predestined. Maybe this time. It's not time for Tottenham to turn around, that's all.
But in Joel's opinion, there are still 45 minutes left in the game, and there is no reason to give up. So he threw central defender Dawson up front. With Defoe again formed a high and a fast. And look at each other's attitude. Perhaps Joel already has the content of the post-game words: the bus and the gate.
With 11 to 10, Chelsea are still defence-centric and not easy to shoot. The bus stopped right in front of Petr Cech and you can't do anything about it. At the 90-minute whistle, it drove away with three points.
Speaking after the game, Mourinho said: "We didn't attack a lot because I didn't want to. I just want to keep the game under control and wait for my chance. When they used Dawson as a center. It opened the door for us to score another goal. "What a smart bus.
A red card decides a game, was the complaint of Tottenham boss Martin Joel after the game. He slammed referee Sdales for ruining Tottenham's decision to send off his Egyptian striker Midow, and with one man behind them, one man to play meant that Tottenham's hopes of winning the game were largely dashed, and Chelsea took advantage of the numerical advantage to win a resounding victory.
Mido's red card was a point of contention after the game, and in the 25th minute, Egyptians and Chelsea defender Del Orno battled for the head, elbowing the back of the head, and the referee showed him a red card. When he was sent off, Mido covered his head with his jersey and looked very frustrated, and after the game he went to the referee to continue his defense.
Joel insists it shouldn't be a red card. "No, not at all. Mido was a little too excited, maybe that move was a bit dangerous, you could give him a yellow card, but it turned out to be a straight red card. If a striker comes in from the flanks to scramble, he has to defend himself, and Terry started the game in the same situation, using almost every means but nothing at all. Mido is still apologizing to everyone, saying he didn't mean to, and that he never elbowed anyone. ”
In addition to the controversy, Joel also believes Chelsea's Essien deserves a red card, having been shown a tactical foul on Davies in the first half, only to be shown to be a yellow card.
'We played well in the first 25 minutes and felt like we could have something to gain, but the red card ended our game and it changed everything. Yoel said.
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said only Mido knew if he did it on purpose, with slow motion showing Mido with a clear arm extension and an elbow to the back of Del Orno's head. "Only Mido can say that he did it on purpose or not, he knows whether he intended to hurt people or not, it's a personal matter. What I do know is that Tottenham had two very violent strikes, one with a red card and the other against Del Orno, who was hurt twice. ”
'Of course people talk about 11 against 10, but sometimes it doesn't necessarily win,' Mourinho said, 'and we have to play as we always do and not try to beat them 4-0 with a fever in the head, it's not hockey, it's football, we take the opponent very seriously and you know, with the right approach, it's easy to get there. ”
'We didn't attack a lot but because I didn't want to do that, I just wanted to control the game and wait for my chance. When Martin Joel played as a central striker with their centre-back, he opened the door for our second goal. (The Premier League and Bundesliga, which started earlier than the two major leagues in Italy and Spain, have already played four and three rounds respectively.) Chelsea and Bayern Munich, the two defending champions, are invincible, leading the way in their respective leagues with clean sheets.
Chelsea extended their nemesis' record of 15 years of unbeaten league and 18 years away from home against Tottenham Hotspur with a 2-0 scoreline. With the win over Tottenham, Chelsea have won four consecutive Premier League games without conceding a single goal this season and are currently top of the table with 12 points. Not only that, after this game, Mourinho's side are now unbeaten in 33 Premier League games! With their current momentum, it is also possible to beat Arsenal's record of 49 Premier League games unbeaten between 11 May 2003 and 16 October 2004.
On the same day, Bayern beat Hertha Berlin 3-0 at home, Bremen, Hamburg and Schalke 04 were held to draw at the same time, and Cologne capsized at home - only Bayern have won all three rounds of the new Bundesliga season. Last season, Bayern did not reach the top of the table for the first time until the round of 14; This season, Magath's team wore the yellow jersey from round 2 onwards like a bicycle race!
Fresh from 1,000 Bundesliga away points against Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern became the first Bundesliga team to win 500 home games. Combined with last season's 9-game winning streak, Bayern's winning streak has reached 12, just one step away from their 13-game winning streak!
The Balachai duo remains Bayern's biggest attacking weapon, with Ballack scoring 10 goals and providing four assists in 16 league games this year, while Mackay has 21 goals and nine assists in 19 games. Of the 11 goals scored by Bayern in the first three rounds this season, nine were related to the two of them.
There have been rumours in the media that if Ballack is unable to renew his contract with Bayern Munich this game, the German captain is likely to be part of the Chelsea squad next season. (To be continued......)
