Chapter 38

After a big home victory over Lorient in the last round, Lyon's position in the Ligue [-] standings had already overtaken Lille and rose to fourth.

But after the draw with Nantes this round, Lille ran to Lyon again.

However, Lyon's ranking has not changed, it is still fourth.

Because this round of Marseille and Saint-Etienne played against each other, Marseille finally defeated the Green Army 2:1 at home.

The current standings after the eight rounds of Ligue [-] are as follows:

Marseille has 19 points, Bordeaux has 17 points, Lille has 15 points, Lyon and Saint-Etienne have 14 points.

Greater Paris has won and drawn one in the last two rounds, and the points have reached 13 points.

The ranking has been raised to sixth, but it is still far from ideal.

Rumors have already begun in the Paris media that Laurent Blanc may be dismissed from get out of class.

In fact, Paris is only six points away from the top of the list. As long as they can return to normal, they should rush to the top of the list very quickly.

The point is that there is no return to normality in sight.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was injured in training and Lavezzi also retired from the game against Caen.

Continuous player injuries make Paris seem to be in crisis, and it seems difficult to return to normal in a short time.

After returning from the away game in Nantes, Zhang Chaoqiang was invited by the team chairman Aulas to have lunch at the opponent's home.

At first, Zhang Chaoqiang thought that the other party was here on behalf of the Korean sponsor, and told him not to make trouble with the Koreans, and he might even ask him to apologize or something.

When he got to the other party's house, he found that it didn't seem to be the case.

"Zhang, how are you doing recently?"

"Very good, Mr. Chairman."

Olas's tone was kind, like an elder speaking to a younger generation, without any sense of accountability.

After the food was served, the other party finally got to the point:
"I know you've had some off-court talk recently, and that doesn't matter."

"But remember, don't let off-court factors affect you."

"Everything a player needs is in one place, the pitch."

"Regardless of fame, honor, money, women, there are all of them, as much as you want."

"As long as you're good enough there, you're doing the right thing."

"Recently, the Koreans did ask you to apologize during the negotiations, but I have already rejected them. The club does not lack a Korean sponsor."

"I have been in French football for so many years, I believe in my eyes."

"Your talent is outstanding, and you will definitely be a superstar in the future."

"Those sponsors are nothing compared to a superstar."

"But to be a superstar, you have to focus on the pitch."

"Our current most successful star in Lyon is Benzema. In terms of talent, he is definitely not the best in Lyon's history, just because he is focused enough and keeps improving."

"I hope that one day when I introduce the most successful star in Lyon's history, I can say the name Superpower..."

Olas said as he ate, the two of them had a meal for nearly an hour.

Zhang Chaoqiang basically listened to the other party's teachings the whole time, and was still dizzy when he left.

A little touched.

But when the cold wind blew, he suddenly woke up.

This old guy is quite capable of fooling around.

Obviously it was a decision made by weighing the pros and cons, but when it came to the other party's mouth, it became that they valued their own talent, as if the club had suffered a lot for themselves.

If it was really a young man, he might have to be grateful.

And what about the real situation?

As long as Koreans give enough, today's lunch might turn into pressure to apologize.

But it's not bad to be optimistic about your talent.

But definitely not as powerful as he said.

He is worthy of being the top manager of French football. He has a good way of managing the team and is quite good at fooling players.

Aulas is undoubtedly the number one contributor to Lyon's transformation from a bad team with no history and no achievements in the 80s to today's top French football team.

Even women's football and basketball, Aulas have done well.

Only now did Zhang Chaoqiang really see what the old guy was capable of.

But one thing to say, Aulas' advice is correct.

Players can only win everything if they focus on the court.

On October 10, in the second round of the Europa League group stage, Lyon played against Bruges at home.

Brugge, as one of Belgium's traditional powerhouses, participated in the Europa League as the third place in the League One last season.

In the first round of the group stage, they drew 0:0 with Torino at home.

Now at the Gerland Stadium, Brugge also has the expectation of scoring points.

For Lyon fans, this game is just an ordinary group match, as long as they can win it.

But domestic fans are very concerned.

On the one hand, I hope to witness Zhang Chaoqiang's first European goal, and on the other hand, there is also a Chinese player in the Bruges team.

Wang Shangyuan, who joined Brugge last summer, also started and scored a goal in the first round of the Brugge last season.

It's a pity that he performed poorly afterwards and quickly lost his position in the team.

Now Wang Shangyuan has been reduced to the fringe of the team and has been out of the squad for a long time.

The domestic media did not hype the Chinese derby, they knew that Wang Shangyuan would not be able to enter the team's roster.

But the game still needs to be watched.

Brugge is not considered a strong team, and Zhang Chaoqiang should have a good chance of scoring a goal.

The game officially started, and the two sides first tested each other.

After probing almost, Lyon took the initiative to attack.

In the 17th minute of the game, the entire Lyon team pushed to the frontcourt.

Zhang Chaoqiang took the ball in front of the opponent's penalty area. Spanish midfielder Vasquez took the initiative to take a step back, as if he was worried that Zhang Chaoqiang would speed him up.

Since the opponent gave the opportunity, Zhang Chaoqiang of course chose to fight.

Draw the bow and set the arrow, shoot with your right foot!

After Zhang Chaoqiang took the shooting position, Vasquez rushed up belatedly, but it was too late.

The football was drawn in an arc, easily passed over Vasquez's head, and quickly flew to the upper right corner of the Bruges goal.

Australian goalkeeper Matthew Ryan didn't expect his teammates to give the opponent a shot so easily, but he still had a quick reaction and immediately flew over.

But he has the same shortcomings as Casillas, lack of height, but does not have the same bounce as Casillas.

The football twirled lightly around his fingertips and flew into the net.

There was a swish, very loud.

"Goooooooal——"

"Super Zhang, he once again showed an excellent competitive state and scored with a dexterous shot!"

"In the last six games, except for the last game against Nantes, Zhang has scored or assisted in the other five games."

Far away in China, the commentator is more excited than N times.

"The goal is scored! Good job!! Zhang Chaoqiang!!!"

"A very beautiful curve ball went straight to the dead corner. Zhang Chaoqiang successfully scored his first goal in the European competition. It was also the first goal of a Chinese player in the European competition."

"Since the first Chinese player participated in the European competition in 1987, nearly 30 years have passed, and finally a Chinese player has scored in the European competition."

"And the goal was scored against the Australian goalkeeper..."

Since Australia joined the AFC, it has quickly become a major sufferer of Chinese football.

Now that Zhang Chaoqiang scored the first goal in the European competition against the talented Australian goalkeeper, it is somewhat special.

As for the first Chinese player to participate in the European War in 1987, it was the famous Director Jia.

The level of coaching is not good, but he was the top central defender in Asia when he was a player.
