Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 263 I'll Be His Kaginia

The moment the ball flew into the goal, England commentator Gary Lineker excitedly shouted, "Goooooooal!"

"The ball is in!"

"Shan Yongzhuo!"

"It's the 18th minute of the match. Shan Yongzhuo received a pass from Aguero just outside the penalty area, shook off Hamsik and Cannavaro's defense, and unleashed a powerful shot into the top corner!"

Manchester City lead Napoli 1-0 at home!

"The score has been changed!"

"Manchester City take the lead against Napoli, and Shan Yongzhuo has scored his first Champions League goal!"

"This is just the beginning!"

"Fans familiar with Shan Yongzhuo might understand that this is really just the beginning, the beginning of rewriting the Champions League goal-scoring record..."

BBC commentator Gary Lineker was very excited. He is a famous English commentator and legendary striker, and naturally supports Manchester City.

Moreover, as many people know, he pays special attention to Shan Yongzhuo and is known as Shan Yongzhuo's number one fanatic. He is also known as the world's number one Shan Yongzhuo fan by Chinese fans.

Before the match even started, Lineker joined the discussion forum and went on a Twitter and TV show to mock Mazzarri's comments, claiming that Cavani was no match for Shan Yongzhuo.

"No striker can be compared to Shan Yongzhuo. Only Messi might be able to barely compare, but even that would be a very difficult comparison."

This was Lineker's pre-match boast.

However, he was also very nervous. After all, this was Shan Yongzhuo's first time participating in the Champions League. If he were to be embarrassed and his performance was outshone by Cavani, it would be quite shameful.

Seeing Shan Yongzhuo break the deadlock in such a passive situation, Lineker was very excited.

"We should really trust Shan Yongzhuo. So what if it's his first time participating in the Champions League?"

Lineker was filled with emotion, and his support for Shan Yongzhuo immediately surged again.

While chatting with guests in the live stream, Lineker couldn't help but say, "Luckily, we're not from the same era, otherwise it would be too tragic."

"To be in the same era as him is a misfortune for all forwards!"

The guests in the live stream also nodded in agreement.

Manchester City fans watching on TV wholeheartedly agreed with the praise for Lineker, and they were excited about Manchester City's lead and Shan Yongzhuo's first Champions League goal.

In fact, most people are not optimistic about Manchester City's Champions League journey. After all, Manchester City has no Champions League experience at all. Even in the first match against Napoli, many Manchester City fans felt very uneasy.

Napoli is no weak team; Cavani is a rising star striker in Serie A and is highly sought after in European football.

Moreover, Villarreal, a strong La Liga team that has reached the Champions League quarterfinals and has been very dominant in recent years, is also in the same group.

In addition, there's Bayern Munich, the Bundesliga powerhouse and a top European club.

It's easy to imagine how fierce the competition was in this group.

Especially in the first 15 minutes, Manchester City played too passively.

Manchester City are now in the lead.

Manchester City fans are starting to have high hopes again: "With Shan Yongzhuo in the team, what do we have to worry about?"

"That's right, Shan said he wanted to win every championship!"

"Shan Yongzhuo is the epitome of victory!"

What is Naples?

"..."

On the sidelines, Mancini also breathed a sigh of relief.

He was actually under the most pressure at Manchester City. During his years at Inter Milan, he earned the nickname "Champions League weakling," which is not a very friendly one.

Even when Inter Milan won the league title, most people thought it had little to do with him, saying that Inter Milan's squad was like a dog that could be tied to a championship.

Last season, Manchester City won the Europa League title, but many people believe that the reason for the loss was due to Shan Yongzhuo, and it had little to do with Mancini.

Mancini wanted to change this assessment, but he didn't expect the team to play so passively against Napoli.

Now that Shan Yongzhuo has scored, Mancini can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The first match is crucial; victory is paramount.

Now, it's a good start.

……

On the field.

The game quickly resumed.

The situation remained largely unchanged. Napoli had indeed prepared thoroughly for this match, pinpointing Manchester City's weaknesses and separating Silva from the backline, thus keeping Manchester City under pressure.

However, perhaps encouraged by the goal, Manchester City's players were in much better spirits and became more active on the field, gradually turning the tide.

Seven minutes later, Manchester City launched another counter-attack.

Aguero's shot was saved by De Sanctis and went out for a corner. Manchester City won a corner.

Then, everyone saw Shan Yongzhuo walk directly to the corner flag.

Then, a bizarre corner kick went directly into the goal, once again piercing Napoli's net.

"Hula..."

The shouts from the stands represented the excitement of Manchester City fans, who cheered with all their might.

"Shan Yongzhuo!"

"Shan Yongzhuo!"

Commentator Gary Lineker excitedly shouted, "Goal again! It's Shan Yongzhuo after all!"

"As we just said, that goal was just the beginning!"

"Sure enough, he's scored again! A classic Shan-style corner kick that has once again pierced Napoli's goal!"

"Shan Yongzhuo scores twice, Manchester City leads Napoli by two goals!"

As Lineker shouted, Manchester City players piled Shan Yongzhuo on the bottom of the pitch, creating a human pyramid.

There was one person who didn't join them, and that was Aguero.

Aguero looked completely shocked.

Although they had played three Premier League matches together, the opponents were relatively weak, so it's not surprising that they were easily defeated by Shan Yongzhuo.

Now, however, Aguero felt that he had been greatly shocked.

He was completely shocked by Shan Yongzhuo's performance. This was a Champions League match, and the opponent was not some pushover, but Napoli, a strong team in Serie A.

Even he felt the strength of Napoli's defense; scoring a goal would be very difficult.

Did Shan Yongzhuo really achieve a second victory so easily?
There's not much to say about those two goals in themselves.

The first goal was a poacher shot, and the second goal was a direct shot from a corner kick.

However, as a top striker, Aguero certainly knows how difficult it is to actually score those two goals.

"He truly is the world's number one striker; I can't compare!"

"Don't even mention me, Leo is nowhere near as good!"

Aguero has completely accepted Shan Yongzhuo's status as the world's best striker. He used to think that his good friend Messi could compete with Shan Yongzhuo, but now Aguero doesn't think so anymore.

However, this is actually a good thing for him.

"Indeed, coming to Manchester was the right decision."

"With Dan as our partner, we're not afraid of any team!"

"Maybe I'll be able to touch all sorts of champions too!"

"I will do my best to assist him. If he is Maradona, I will be his Cajina!"

Having firmly made up his mind about this, Aguero excitedly joined the human pyramid.
