Football: Shine in the AFC Champions League and sign with Arsenal on the spot

Saka Jr. stood in the stands at the Emirates Stadium, looking at the Arsenal players who were finishing on the pitch, very longing.

It's the end of the Premier League match between Arsenal and Sunderland, and the score on the big screen is 1:1.

Since the focus of Arsenal's clash with Manchester United, Arsenal have faced opponents who are a cut down on quality.

They won two of their next three Premier League games and were held to draw one.

The draw was now the home game against Sunderland.

Chen Fan scored a first-half goal in his first game on his debut, but Arsene Wenger replaced him in the 65th minute.

The reason for replacing him was not that Chen Fan was injured, but that Arsenal would be a guest in Italy after this game for the Champions League 1/8 final with AC Milan.

Such an on-field arrangement is obviously to protect Chen Fan and prevent him from making any mistakes before going to the San Siro Stadium.

Perhaps it was because of this substitution that Sunderland drew Arsenal in stoppage time in the end.

Of course, this is also in the calculation of Professor Wenger, who said at the post-match press conference that

he does not regret replacing Chen Fan, because there are more important games waiting for him.

......

"Chen, have you ever been to Italy?"

"I haven't been there, in fact I've only been to England outside of China."

"Haha, then I have a lot of experience than you, I went to Italy to play in the Youth Champions League when I was in the Arsenal youth team!"

Ramsey and Chen Fan chatted on the training ground as they trained.

The day after tomorrow is their Champions League game against AC Milan, so tomorrow they will leave for Milan, Italy.

Beep!

Arsene Wenger, who was on the sidelines of the training ground, blew the whistle for the assembly and all the Arsenal players ran over.

"Everyone, that's all for today's training, go back and have a good rest, and gather at the gate of the Kearney training base tomorrow!"

As soon as Chen Fan walked out of the gate of the Kearney base, he was surrounded by many reporters.

Now Chen Fan is no longer the nobody who just arrived in the Premier League, and reporters will not only interview Chinese reporters.

A reporter with the Sky Sports 'sky' logo on the microphone squeezed up and took the lead in asking Chen Fan a question.

"Chen, what do you think of Arsenal's prospects in the Champions League, and are you sure about the game the day after tomorrow?"

The beautiful female reporter who asked two questions looked at Chen Fan with blinking.

'I don't know how far we can go in the Champions League, but I know I'm going to give it my all and the day after tomorrow we want to beat last season's results.

It is worth mentioning that Arsenal stopped in the last 16 of the Champions League last season.

After that, Chen Fan wanted to leave this place of right and wrong quickly, because he saw that there was already a Beetle parked there opposite the base.

It was obvious that Li Shuxin came to pick him up, and then Chen Fan refused to be interviewed by other reporters.

Squeezed out of the crowd, sat on the Beetle's side seat and walked away.

Driving on the way home, Chen Fan suddenly asked Li Shuxin.

"Shuxin, are you going to Milan?"

Hearing Chen Fan's words, Li Shuxin was a little incomprehensible but still responded.

"I'm definitely going to go, I'm not saying I'm going to be there for every game you have."

"I communicated with Matthew Jr. and took the Arsenal staff's plane."

Hearing Li Shuxin's natural answer, Chen Fan felt a burst of warmth in his heart.

......

On the morning of the second day, the Arsenal players arrived at the Kearney base on time and headed to the London airport with the staff to fly to Milan, Italy.

England and Italy were not too far away, and the plane arrived in Milan in 3 hours.

When the Arsenal players got off the plane, they were greeted by a large number of fans wearing Arsenal shirts.

They were waiting here just to pick them up, and Chen Fan saw that there were many yellow-skinned people in this group of fans.

Obviously, they are all Chinese people in Milan, and this pick-up is also for Chen Fan.

"Chen Fan! Chen Fan! Chen..."

Hearing his fellow countrymen calling himself at the top of his voice, Chen Fan naturally walked to the fans to meet their needs for group photos and autographs.

"Come on Chen Fan, you are the hope of our Huaxia!"

"Come on the day after tomorrow and beat AC Milan!"

"Chen Fan, I specially flew from Huaxia to Milan to support you, and I will cheer you on in San Siro!"

As Chen Fan's compatriots, the fans cheered for Chen Fan, and Chen Fan also responded with a smile.

......

After the whole Arsenal team arrived in Milan, they borrowed the training ground of AC Milan's rivals Inter Milan to maintain training.

Interestingly, Inter Milan coach Ranieri also came to the training ground to exchange AC Milan's tactical play with Arsene Wenger.

Sure enough, as a mortal enemy, you have to stumble on each other in various places.

There was only such a small episode before the game, and soon the much-anticipated Champions League 1/8 final between Arsenal and AC Milan arrived.

"Audience friends, I received the news from the front that Chen Fan will start in this Champions League match between Arsenal and AC Milan!"

Far away in the studio in Huaxia, Huang Jianxiang shouted excitedly.

"Chen Fan's Champions League appearance this time is a milestone, this is the first Champions League debut in the history of Chinese players!"

It is worth mentioning that the first time a Chinese player made his appearance in the Champions League was five years ago, when Sun Xiang came off the bench at PSV Eindhoven.

At this time, Chen Fan and the Arsenal players were also waiting for admission in the players' tunnel at the San Siro.

Chen Fan looked at all the big guys of the AC Milan team next to him and had a dreamy feeling.

He is about to embark on the Champions League, where he will compete against legends such as Ibrahimovic, Robinho and Seedorf!

I took a deep breath and calmed down.

Looking up again, his eyes were full of confidence and eagerness.

The moment the players from both sides walked out of the tunnel, the endless noise of San Sirone turned into cheers.

In the cheers of the South Stand of San Siro, a giant tifo was raised:

the Red Devil on the skull chair!

The Red Devils' languid eyes on the Tifo seemed to be on the Arsenal players.

It was AC Milan who were inspired, while the Arsenal players felt nothing but a sigh of depression.

The Devil's home stadium lives up to its name!

"Today the San Siro seems to have been turned into an Asura stadium by AC Milan fans, waiting for Arsenal to arrive."

"Good luck for Arsenal."

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray also gasped when he saw this scene through the screen.

At this time, Chen Fan also stepped on the lawn of San Siro.
