Chapter 153

After Zhang Chaoqiang hit a penalty kick, the last few minutes of the first half passed smoothly, and Manchester City returned to the locker room with a 2:0 lead.

During the intermission, Guardiola briefly pointed out some minor problems in the first half and asked everyone to continue looking for opportunities in the second half.

This can be regarded as training with the game, allowing Manchester City players to quickly master the pass and control play.

But the second half really started, but Stoke City's first attack was decent.

In the 48th minute, Bojan passed Kolarov and sent a cross, and Anautovic made a push.

The Stoke City fans in the stands raised their hands and cheered, but the football rubbed against the post and rolled out of the baseline.

The opening attack did not really work, and soon the initiative returned to Manchester City.

Aguero was very active, obviously he was not willing to be a supporting role, and he was unwilling to let Zhang Chaoqiang stand out alone.

In the 54th minute, De Bruyne and Sterling hit the wall to cooperate and dribbled the ball forward, sending the football to the goal with a 45-degree half-high ball.

Aguero leaped up, grabbed the German defender Walscheid and sent the football into the opponent's goal with a tackle on the ground.

The score expanded to 3:0, and Manchester City basically sealed the victory.

The next step is training time, and the Manchester City team continues to train their pass and control tactics.

Of course, Zhang Chaoqiang is still looking for opportunities and wants to score another goal.

Put on the cap when you score another goal, and give yourself a good start to your Premier League career.

And it's the first show to wear a hat, so there must be a lot of attention.

But half an hour later, both Aguero and De Bruyne had been replaced, and Zhang Chaoqiang hadn't waited for the chance to score.

In the 88th minute, the game was about to officially end.

Zhang Chaoqiang changed position before the penalty area in the middle and received a pass from David Silva.

It may be that the game is coming to an end, and the defeat has been decided, and the defensive enthusiasm of Stoke City players is no longer so high.

Zhang Chaoqiang took the ball and immediately chose to fire from a long distance.

His right leg was pumped down like an iron whip, forcing the football to take off rapidly, sideways over the hasty Shawcross, and went straight to the Stoke City goal.

Shay Given made another standard flying save, but the ball bounced past the goal, flew easily over his palm, and went straight into the net.

"Goooooooooooal——————————" England's commentator once again hissed and roared.

"God!! Let this guy find a chance again and score with a powerful long shot!!"

"In Ligue [-], the Chinese had the nickname Super Zhang because he always acted like a superman on the pitch."

"Now I admit that he is indeed a superman on the court, he is the real super Zhang!"

"In his debut game in the Premier League, Super Zhang scored a hat-trick bravely. This is a very remarkable achievement!"

"In the entire history of the Premier League, this is only the third time a player has done something like this!"

Wearing a hat in his first show made Zhang Chaoqiang directly the third player in the history of the Premier League.

In the first round of the Premier League in the 96/97 season, Pulsatilla Ravanelli joined the newly promoted Middlesbrough in the Premier League. The Italian striker helped Middlesbrough draw with Liverpool 3:3 at home with a hat-trick in his Premier League debut, becoming the first player in the Premier League. The player who wore the cap in his first show.

In the penultimate round of the 02/03 Premier League season, the 19-year-old Arsenal teenager Pennant got the opportunity to make his Premier League debut, and then he helped the Gunners beat Southampton 6:1 at home with a hat-trick, making his second debut Players wearing caps.

Today, Zhang Chaoqiang is the third.

Finally got the desired hat-trick, Zhang Chaoqiang excitedly rushed to the sidelines to celebrate.

There were not many boos in the stands this time, because many Stoke City fans had already left the field early.

At the same time, the domestic commentators continued to cheer excitedly.

"What a Zhang Chaoqiang, well done!!"

"This long-range shot is like a thunder on the ground, shaking the entire Premier League."

"I believe that after this game, no one will doubt whether Zhang Chaoqiang is worth [-] million euros."

"In addition, through this hat-trick, Zhang Chaoqiang became the second Asian player to wear a hat in the Premier League after Shinji Kagawa in the 12/13 season."

※※※

After Zhang Chaoqiang put on his hat, the game was over soon.

Manchester City beat Stoke City 4-0 away, completing the opening two consecutive Premier League victories.

The brave Zhang Chaoqiang is undoubtedly the focus of the news.

Not only the English media, but also the media of other European countries are actively reporting on Zhang Chaoqiang's performance.

After all, with the name of Mr. Yiyi, he was born to attract attention.

"He scored a hat-trick in his debut in the Premier League. After conquering Ligue [-], Super Zhang is ready to conquer the Premier League?" This is a report from L'Equipe.

"Blue Moon's [-] million yuan debuted with a cap, and the Red Devils' [-] million yuan debut did not directly participate in the goal. Who will become a [-] million yuan parallel importer?" This is a report from The Times.

"The Chinese have completed a hat-trick in their first show, is it a butt combination or a 3G combination?" "The Sun" always focuses on Xiasanlu.

"Missing the super Zhang to buy a small smoker, has the Bianconeri missed an excellent opportunity to win the Champions League." "Turin Sports Daily" regretted that Juventus failed to introduce Zhang Chaoqiang.

By the way, Zhang Chaoqiang's hat-trick was also the first in the Premier League this season.

In the head coach's office in the Manchester City campus, it was already the morning after the game.

The players can rest, but Guardiola has to prepare for the second leg of the Champions League play-off in midweek.

However, in view of the 5:0 victory in the away game in the first round, the second round is basically just a situation.

Most of the main players, including Zhang Chaoqiang, will not play. Manchester City only intends to send a set of substitute lineup, just deal with it.

What Guardiola really cares about is a newspaper in front of him.

Spain's "Mundo Deportivo", Barcelona's mouthpiece newspaper.

There is a prominent headline on the opened page - "Guardiola has found his new Messi?"

The accompanying picture is the picture of Zhang Chaoqiang wearing a hat to celebrate.

When coaching Barcelona, ​​​​Guardiola and Barcelona should be regarded as mutual achievements.

But after leaving Barcelona, ​​​​Guardiola has never achieved a good Champions League result.

This caused many people to sarcastically say that he would not be able to win the Champions League without Barcelona.

As an aspiring coach, this kind of statement hurts Guardiola.

But what hurt even more was that he couldn't refute with actual actions.

In Bayern, they are the favorites to win the Champions League every year, but the final results every year are not satisfactory.

Guardiola himself has thought over and over again, and he more or less knows some reasons.

Pass and control tactics are not invincible, or there is no invincible tactic on the court.

Whenever facing a tough opponent, his team needs a hot spot player.

Just like coaching Barcelona back then, whenever the team was in trouble, someone could stand up and act as a breaking point, using their personal ability to change the trend of the game.

The breaking point at the time was Messi.

But after leaving Barcelona, ​​he no longer has such explosive players.

Now that he meets Zhang Chaoqiang, Guardiola feels that he has a new explosive player.

While Guardiola was thinking wildly, the rest of the coaching staff arrived one after another.

Second assistant coach Torrent, fitness coach Buenaventura, video analyst Planchot, and team doctor Kugat.

Guardiola only called these few people, because they are all old acquaintances, his real direct descendants, who have been following since the Barcelona period.

"Everyone watched the game last night. What do you think of Zhang's performance?" Guardiola touched his bald head and asked old acquaintances.

"That kid is quite talented."

"A genius indeed."

"He is an object worth cultivating..."

The old acquaintances chattered, and when the scene gradually calmed down, Guardiola said again:

"I really want to train him, and train him well."

"Just like when we trained Messi..."

At this time, everyone realized that Guardiola wanted to gamble and pin his next Champions League hope on the Chinese.
