Chapter 120
On January 1, in the 17st round of Ligue 21, Lyon played against newly promoted Ma Troyes at home.

This is Zhang Chaoqiang's first game after returning from the awards ceremony.

"Super Zhang is finally back."

"Super Zhang, come on!"

"Kill them, Super Zhang."

When the stadium was warming up, Zhang Chaoqiang could clearly hear the shouts of Lyon fans.

With Zhang Chaoqiang absent recently, Lyon lost to Saint-Etienne and Paris in a row. The fans are indeed a little worried.

Losing games one after another hurts morale.

If it is not handled properly, it may collapse.

Now that Zhang Chaoqiang is back, everyone can rest assured.

What's more, the opponent in this game is very simple.

Troyes is not only a newly promoted team, but also the deputy squad leader. It is currently ranked at the bottom of Ligue [-] and can be said to be the weakest team in Ligue [-].

Therefore, the Lyon team is very confident, and it is no problem to win the opponent at home.

Only 8 minutes into the game, Ferry sent a through ball in the frontcourt. Zhang Chaoqiang quickly advanced to form a semi-single-handed shot.

With a strong volley from close range, the football hit the post with a bang and bounced directly into the net.

This is the way to blow a pole in football.

Not only incomprehensible, but also domineering.

"Super Zhang!! Super Zhang!!"

Crazy cheers immediately sounded in the Olympic Stadium.

The game restarted and Lyon continued to score.

In the 19th minute, Valbuena picked a pass and assisted Lacazette, allowing the latter to score his first goal in the second half of the schedule.

In the 38th minute, Zhang Chaoqiang broke through the ribs of the penalty area by collaborating with Tolisso to hit the wall, and scored twice with a rubbing shot.

Lyon took a three-goal lead in the first half, which made Troyes even more defensive.

This made Zhang Chaoqiang fail to find a chance to wear a hat.

After scoring twice at halftime, it seems that it is not so easy to successfully wear a cap in the second half.

Otherwise, the number of hat-tricks in football can increase by two or three times.

Troyes did not relax until Lyon Mingjin withdrew, so Jordan Ferry scored a goal in stoppage time.

In this way, Lyon beat Troyes 4:0 at home, stopping the decline in time.

On the other side, Paris beat Bastia 2-0 at home, but Ibrahimovic did not score.

"After Chao Zhang returned from Zurich, he quickly stabilized his top scorer position with two goals..." Lyon media said in the event report.

The reaction of the Chinese media was much greater.

Because Zhang Chaoqiang scored twice in this game and broke the record again.

"Zhang Chaoqiang scored twice and successfully broke Cha Bum-geun's scoring record"

"Scored 19 goals in a single season, the Asian player with the most goals in the five major league seasons"

"Brother Qiangzi climbed to the top with double sounds, truly crowned No. [-] in Asia"

The domestic media frantically promoted Zhang Chaoqiang.

The single-season scoring record of Asian players in the five major leagues is held by Che Fangen, who scored 85 goals in the Bundesliga in the 86/17 season.

Thanks to those 17 goals, Cha Fangen ranked fourth in the Bundesliga scorer list this season, successfully helping Leverkusen qualify for the Europa League for the first time in history, and then Cha Fangen himself was also selected as the Bundesliga player of the season.

Since then, many Asian players have approached the season's 17 goals, but they have never been tied.

Zhang Chaoqiang tied the record at the end of the half.

But everyone knows that Zhang Chaoqiang will soon break the record.

Now, after winning the Puskas Award, he scored twice to break the record and officially surpassed Cha Fangen.

Every time he scores a goal, he will create a new Asian record.

The Chinese fans were very happy, and set off another wave of strong blowing.

The South Korean media naturally carried out relevant reports, after all, it was to break their record of Korean celebrities.

Of course, the hard mouth of stubborn black fans is indispensable.

I think the level of Ligue [-] is too low, Zhang Chaoqiang's goals are too watery and so on.

Park Joo-young, who played well in Ligue [-] but not in other leagues, was brought up again as a metaphor. This time even Sun Xingmin was brought in.

Sun Xingmin quickly won the main position after joining Tottenham, but currently only scored 2 goals in half a season in the Premier League.

You must know that he scored in double figures for three consecutive seasons in the Bundesliga.

South Korean black fans believe that this is the overall gap between the leagues.

Ligue [-] is the bottom of the five major leagues, and the difficulty of scoring goals is much lower.

If you want to compare with Cha Bum-geun, at least the data must be halved to count.

※※※

After winning Troyes at home, Lyon entered the fast lane.

1月20日, 法国杯32强，里昂客场挑战法丙球队尚布利, 最终凭借科内特的制胜球1:0小胜晋级。

On January 1, in the 24nd round of Ligue 22, Lyon played against Marseille at home.

At present, under the leadership of Real Madrid star Michel, Marseille's performance is very stable, and it has been swinging back and forth around No.10 in Ligue [-] for a long time.

But in this Olympic derby, they did cause some trouble for Lyon.

In the first half, the two sides were tied 0:0. In the second half, Zhang Chaoqiang broke through from the side and then made an inverted triangle pass back to assist Tolisso to break the deadlock. Unexpectedly, Batshuayi's world wave equalized soon.

After 80 minutes, Zhang Chaoqiang took advantage of the [Mr. Key] bonus to win the lore.

It is indeed not easy to win the game. The good news is that Zhang Chaoqiang has consolidated his nickname of the king of lore.

On February 2, in the 1rd round of Ligue 23, Lyon challenged Montpellier away.

Zhang Chaoqiang opened the scoring first, Kornet came off the bench and scored, and Lyon won 2:0.

On February 2th, in the 4th round of Ligue 24, Lyon played against Bordeaux at home.

The situation in Bordeaux this season is also very unsatisfactory. Due to player injuries, they have been ranked outside the top six for a long time.

This has led to Lille and the newly-emerged Nice team currently competing with Monaco for the third place in the standings.

But in general, Monaco is not stressful.

So this season, Ligue [-] only has the championship to watch.

Facing Bordeaux this time, Lacazette showed a very good state, scoring twice in the first half.

Recently, Kornet has performed continuously, so Fournier basically gives him about 20 minutes of performance time in every round of Ligue [-].

Zhang Chaoqiang is in good condition and will naturally not be replaced.

So Lacazette's playing time was squeezed.

This guy seems to be feeling the pressure. Recently, he has been training frantically to find his status, and finally showed a good performance in this game.

Zhang Chaoqiang also continued his state of scoring consecutive goals.

In the second half, he scored with a header from a corner kick to help the team seal the victory.

Lyon defeated Bordeaux 3:0 at home, completing the league's four consecutive victories.

On February 2th, in the 7th round of Ligue 25, Lyon challenged newly promoted Angers away.

Ya Lai opened the scoring with a long-range shot in the first half, and Zhang Chaoqiang double-shot in the second half to seal the victory.

Lyon won the game 3-0 away with ease.

"Since returning from winning the Puskas Award at the FIFA Awards Ceremony, Zhang Chaoqiang has scored in five consecutive Ligue [-] games, helping Lyon easily complete their five-game winning streak in Ligue [-]."

"It's a pity that Paris Saint-Germain is also winning consecutive games, and the last five rounds have also won five consecutive games."

"Relying on his outstanding performance of scoring seven goals in five games, Zhang Chaoqiang continued to secure his top scorer position."

"Currently, Zhang Chaoqiang has scored 24 goals in Ligue 2, temporarily ahead of No.[-] Ibrahimovic by three goals."

"If it weren't for Ibrahimovic's goals every game in the last four rounds, the gap would have been even wider."

Zhang Chaoqiang can break the record every time he scores a goal, and at the same time, it arouses the cheers and celebrations of domestic fans.

On the French side, Zhang Chaoqiang has already won the nickname of "China King".

The slogan was first shouted by Lyon's "Progress". With Zhang Chaoqiang's consecutive goals, many French media began to call it this.

Then in the latest issue of "L'Equipe", Zhang Chaoqiang was also given this prefix.

"In the history of European football, there has never been such an outstanding Chinese player. Zhang is indeed the Chinese football king!"
