Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 224: A direct taunt to Southampton fans! Mane and Van Dijk break down defenses! The press conference erupts in a tirade!
"Qin! First hat-trick of the league! We've secured a dramatic victory against Southampton!"

Giroud's face was filled with excitement.

He was standing to Qin Ming's right and saw everything clearly.

Silky ball control, lobbed shots, and bicycle kicks—this is the version of himself he dreams of.

Of course, it's something he'll likely never achieve in his lifetime, but having such teammates is equally exciting.

"This bunch of trash got caught up by the women's team with three goals in a row!" Cazorla mocked.

"That's them!"

Sanchez clenched his fist and growled.

"That was a beautiful goal!"

Arteta also came over and patted Qin Ming on the shoulder.

Arsenal players celebrated wildly with joy.

The away stands were also filled with jubilation, with Arsenal players hugging those around them and spilling golden beer everywhere.

"King!!!"

"Why are those Southampton bastards so quiet?!"

"Because they've already died of anger!"

Arsenal fans kept taunting them.

Bertrand Carlson, dressed as a clown, asked, "Where is Mr. Ninety Million Pounds?"

"Oh! He's in Southampton's penalty area, one, two, three! He's scored three goals!"

"Wasn't he invisible?"

Bertrand Carlsen burst into laughter after he finished speaking.

Arsenal fans' taunts were like knives stabbing into the bodies of Southampton fans.

The entire St. Mary's Stadium erupted in a frenzy.

"You damn bastards are provoking us!"

"You stupid pig!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

Southampton fans hurled insults, and some even tried to climb over the fence.

"Quiet! Quiet!" Riot police were already in place.

No conflict occurred.

The camera suddenly pans to the stands and splits into two shots.

Ronald Koeman looked tired, slumped in his fan seat, looking dejected compared to his previous high spirits.

How could they let themselves score three goals in a row?

Qin Ming's recent performance in the Premier League is not as good as when he first arrived.

He knew that the Premier League was gradually getting used to Qin Ming.

They were hoping to use the referee's lenient approach and physical confrontations to inflict another defeat on Arsenal.

But he didn't expect that while the Premier League was adapting, Qin Ming was also constantly improving.

These three goals are proof of that.

A long-range shot with both feet, a lobbed kick inside the penalty area—the first two were alright, but the game-winning goal was terrifying.

“Even a hundred million pounds would be worth it.” Ronald Koeman sighed, knowing victory was already in the past.

He suddenly felt a little envious of Wenger.

It's not entirely because Qin Ming is strong.

Rather, Qin Ming instilled a completely new spirit in the gunmen.

This is the true, lasting wealth of a team.

the other side.

Wenger unzipped his down jacket, revealing a suit jacket underneath, and loosened his red tie before letting out a long sigh of relief.

“No wonder Dieter Blackkin said that this kid’s overall strength can improve a lot after being stimulated, especially when he is scolded,” Wenger muttered to himself.

He had previously communicated with Dieter Black Gold frequently, and gradually summarized Qin Ming's skills, personality, habits, and other aspects.

It can be considered a user manual in a certain sense.

"What a perfect first half." Wenger sat down again, crossed his legs, and swung his toes, in an incredibly good mood.

on the field.

Stop your celebration!

The referee rushed over and warned Qin Ming.

"Okay, sir."

Qin Ming had already provoke everyone, and he felt more relaxed than ever before.

As he passed by Mane, the man's jaw muscles tensed, and his expression was quite frightening.

“You shouldn’t celebrate like that!” Mane said in broken English.

"I scored three goals."

Qin Ming pointed at the electronic scoreboard, a cold smile on his lips. "So I can celebrate however I want. Why aren't you celebrating? Is it because you don't want to?"

Arrogant?

If scoring three goals doesn't mean you can't be arrogant, then most people in the football world should remain humble.

Besides, he had even more outrageous things to say that he hadn't mentioned yet.

Mane gritted his teeth, seeing contempt and a complete lack of respect for him in Qin Ming's eyes.

He once held a knife to a teammate's neck because the teammate mocked his accent.

Self-esteem is very important to him.

But at this moment, he was on the verge of breaking down.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Mane roared at the air.

Even more devastating was Virgil van Dijk's attack. The Dutch center-back squatted on the ground, plucked two blades of grass, and stuffed them into his mouth, the bitterness gradually spreading in his oral cavity.

But his heart was filled with even more bitterness.

A player who aspires to be the world's best defender was scored on right under his nose in an extremely flamboyant manner.

What does it feel like?
Van Dijk was so heartbroken he couldn't speak, and suddenly understood Nesta's words.

He mentally destroyed me.

“Virgil! It’s not your fault, don’t blame yourself too much!” Fonte comforted her.

Actually, he was in terrible pain too.

If I hadn't lunged so hard, and waited for Qin Ming to lob the ball before trying to steal it, I might have been able to disrupt the attack.

People tend to overthink things after a failure.

Southampton goalkeeper Stekelenburg stared blankly.

Am I a bad person?

He didn't participate in the foul and became a background character.

That last winning goal will undoubtedly spread throughout the football world, and among the people in the picture, only he has his face clearly visible.

He felt very wronged.

Southampton's fighting spirit was completely shattered.

When the game restarted, everyone except Mane, who was still running, was exhausted.

Arsenal players, however, seemed unsatisfied.

Keep attacking!
Southampton were pinned back in their own half, hoping time would pass quickly.

The referee, worried about another conflict after the match, waited until stoppage time ended.

Beep-beep-beep!
Without the slightest delay, he immediately blew the whistle.

The game is over!

Southampton 2-3 Arsenal.

"Come on, Arsenal!" the gunmen cheered, raising their hands.

However, they were quickly urged to leave by the staff.

To prevent any serious conflict from occurring.

After thanking his teammates, Qin Ming turned around and looked at the Southampton players. Sure enough, everyone's expression was very gloomy.

"Then I feel great." His steps became much lighter.

When they returned to the locker room, Wenger was already inside.

"You've shown me a different Arsenal today," Wenger said, clapping lightly.

That ruthlessness emanating from their very bones transformed the players on the field, making them no longer as weak as before.

They trailed in the first half and struggled in the second half.

"There was no fighting spirit. But what pleases me even more is that you remained rational; those two tactical corner kicks were truly beautiful."

Wenger knows that players tend to lose their composure when they get carried away.

That way you can score goals, but not many.

If Arsenal had relied solely on anger, they wouldn't have won today, let alone scored three brilliant goals.

"Alright, let's not talk about this now. You guys take a shower first, so you don't catch a cold."

Wenger looked at Qin Ming and said, "Come with me to the post-match press conference later."

"Okay." Qin Ming nodded.

When he took off his jersey, there were bruises all over his waist, abdomen, and thighs.

Southampton players really went all out.

"Qin, why didn't you elbow them?" Giroud had witnessed Qin Ming's iron elbow before.

"Didn't I already get a yellow card?"

Qin Ming remained relatively calm at the time, knowing that if he were sent off, it would be difficult for his teammates to turn the game around.

"Oh yeah! But it's okay, I got revenge for you by stepping on Wanyama's foot!"

Giroud smiled and took credit.

"Today's match was really tough, it felt even more tiring than playing Manchester City." Monreal could barely stand.

"It's all because of that idiot referee." Ramsey said angrily, "The first two goals were both suspected of being fouls, but the referee didn't call it."

If it weren't for that conflict, they probably would have been truly targeted.

As a result, after just a few days of winning against Manchester City and returning to the top of the table, they are about to be overtaken by Manchester City and become second.

“The club will definitely file a complaint against him later,” Arteta said.

Such clearly problematic calls, as well as large-scale conflicts on the field, are usually investigated after the game.

However, the Premier League is relatively protective of its own referees.

It might just be a fine and a suspension.

"Luckily, there was no bloodshed in today's conflict, otherwise there might have been a red card." Cazorla massaged his ribs.

“Yes!” Cech nodded.

Given Arsenal's current injury situation, what will they do in January if more players are suspended?
"Qin! Did you forget your ball? Go to the post-match interview first, I'll go to the referee's lounge to get the ball!" Arteta suddenly remembered that Qin Ming had scored three goals.

"Okay!" Qin Ming nodded, rinsed off, put on his down jacket, and followed Wenger to the conference room.

The reporters immediately perked up.

Qin Ming rarely gives interviews, so what's the meaning of his presence today?
Is Wenger going to be promoted to the permanent position?
"Southampton played brilliantly today, despite a few goals where the referee helped them out, but when you can't overcome a challenge, you have to pay the price."

"We played terribly in the first half, and 0-2 is the lesson we paid."

"But as everyone saw in the second half, we regained our confidence and fighting spirit, and scored three goals in a row."

"Our team is young, has a good foundation, is passionate and energetic, but sometimes no one wants to make mistakes."

"That's why we were always unable to turn the game around in the past."

"Now we need to change our approach and become a team that dares to fight and rely on its physicality."

Wenger told reporters.

The reporters weren't very interested in Wenger; they all pointed their microphones at Qin Ming.

"Qin! I heard that Martina called you a 'women's team' during the match. Do you have anything to say to him about that?"

The Sun reporter was the first to ask a question.

The press officer immediately stopped him, saying that such a question was too pointed and should not be asked.

However, Qin Ming, holding the microphone, said, "We were reversed by a 'women's team,' so what kind of team are they? You can all guess what I'm thinking right now."

Children's team?
Softie Team?
The reporters began to use their imaginations.

"Also, who is Martina? I never remember defenders' names, as long as they know me."

Qin Ming continued his sarcastic remarks.

Ever since the match against PSG, he has been reading Ibrahimovic's quotes.

I learned a little bit and now it comes in handy.

The meeting room erupted in commotion. The reporters exchanged bewildered glances, not expecting Qin Ming's response.

But it's really imposing.

The Sun reporter wanted to ask more questions, but was asked to leave the meeting room by the press officer.

"Qin! Qin! After your third goal, was your celebration aggressive? We saw you gesturing for the Southampton fans to shut up."

As a reporter for The Sun, you can be dragged out, but you can't forget the questions.

“I’m an honest guy, I just had a little itchy lips.”

"Oh right, and the slapping gesture was because there was a fly buzzing around me, which was really annoying, so I wanted to get rid of it."

Qin Ming wasn't stupid.

He knows what issues he can admit to and what issues he cannot.

Reporters in the audience covered their mouths and chuckled.

Is this a hint?
No.

A blatant and explicit statement!

They're practically replacing the flies with Southampton fans.

Are you satisfied with the first half of the new season?

Only after the Sun reporter was dragged out by two security guards did the Guardian reporter ask his question at the prompt of the press officer.

"I'm very satisfied! We are now first in our Champions League group, first in the league standings, and I'm also number one in the top scorers list."

"However, we still have room for improvement. A season cannot be judged by just the first half; the most important part is the middle and later stages, because they determine who wins the championship."

Qin Ming returned to calm after his initial arrogance.

This makes his sharp edge less piercing and avoids giving fans a bad impression.

Of course, those who dislike or even hate him, such as Tottenham and Southampton fans, will not change their minds no matter what.

Another conference room.

"Wenger once said that if wealthy clubs can squander their money, then football will lose its original meaning."

"Now he has forgotten that sentence himself."

Ronald Koeman was not convinced.

If I had 90 million pounds, I wouldn't have lost today's match.

"He's a great young player, but he doesn't know what respect is. Look at his celebrations, all you see is pride, all I see is arrogance!"

"If such a person doesn't learn humility, his career won't last long!"

"Moreover, looking at the honors behind him, there aren't actually that many!"

"I won 16 titles during my playing career, including league titles, the Champions League, the Super Cup, the European Championship, and so on, and I still remain humble!"

"Because I know there are players in the world who are better than me!"

"And him?"

"After scoring a few goals, he forgot himself. If he were in the Dutch national team at that time, he would have been benched for a long time!"

"Finally, I hope Wenger can mentor more young people!"

Ronald Koeman got angrier and angrier as he spoke.

Because Qin Ming's slap felt like a blow to his own face, how could someone who had once been so glorious tolerate it?

In terms of seniority and honors, Qin Ming has no right to treat him like this.

Upon returning to London, Ronald Koeman's comments were circulated, and Arsenal's internal media interviewed Wenger.

"Some people are always dwelling on past glories, how many championships I won, and how I beat those formidable opponents."

"In my opinion, this is just a way for losers to save face."

"As for his statement that Qin will be benched, if they are really that good, they wouldn't have won three World Cup runner-up titles."

"Oh, and there's also a third-place finisher who just won."

"In the end, I trained many excellent players, and I didn't need anyone to remind me how to teach them."

Which Premier League manager is the most protective of his own?

The answer is Ferguson, Wenger, and Mourinho.

There is an interesting story.

Suppose Wenger's grandson steals Ferguson's grandson's chewing gum.

Given Wenger's protective nature, he would say, "I didn't see anything."

Then the two started hurling insults at each other.

Mourinho, meanwhile, was laughing heartily.
