Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 360 Awards galore, home game against Tottenham

"Congratulations!"

After receiving the FIFA World Player of the Year award and returning to their seats, both Ronaldo and Messi offered their congratulations. Although their feelings were somewhat complicated, they maintained their composure.

Qin Ming smiled and shook hands with the two of them, without giving them any particular thoughts.

These two have monopolized the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year awards for so many years, while I've only won them once. I should be proud, but not to the point of being blinded by pride.

He knew that his future path was still very long.

Putting aside everything else, there are rumors that the Messi-Ronaldo era is over, but the teams they play for are still highly competitive.

The data also showcased the individual's talent.

After sitting back down, Qin Ming placed the trophy on his lap, feeling the coldness emanating from its metallic texture, and occasionally glancing down at it.

He was genuinely happy.

The FIFA World Player of the Year award, when it was co-sponsored with the Ballon d'Or, was considered to have the same prestige. Now that the two awards are separate again, even though it doesn't have the same status as the Ballon d'Or, it's still one of the lifelong goals for professional players.

The awards ceremony ended quickly, and there was a banquet in the evening.

Qin Ming did not leave early this time, after all, this was London, his home base, and he was the protagonist tonight.

Ronaldo and Messi, on the other hand, have matches to play the day after tomorrow and will leave early.

Qin Ming held up a glass of soda and raised it towards Harry Kane. After playing Manchester City, Arsenal's next opponent is Tottenham.

This season's Tottenham Hotspur season is similar to the previous two seasons.

They performed very well at the beginning of the season, but the management was dissatisfied that Tottenham had not won a single title in so many years.

The empty Hall of Honor is disheartening.

Pochettino was speechless about this, as he had put in a lot of effort at Tottenham, often working overtime to study tactical systems.

Having been mentored by Bielsa, he has always adhered to the principle that "running is everything".

However, they still couldn't win against Arsenal every time they faced them, and were instead defeated by Arsenal by large margins several times in a row.

Just thinking about it makes me angry.

Harry Kane walked over and said, "Congratulations on winning the award."

He is a very open and honest player. Although the teams don't get along well, he has a good personal relationship with Qin Ming, so he wouldn't be unable to say "congratulations".

"This is a gift for your child. I was going to send it to you, but something came up and I couldn't."

Qin Ming took a gift box out of his pocket.

Some time ago, Harry Kane and his childhood sweetheart had their first child, but what Qin Ming found strange was that the two were not married yet.

Rumor has it that Kate wants to wait until Harry Kane wins his first professional championship before getting married.

This might be a bit difficult. Qin Ming had to admit that Harry Kane was very unlucky and just happened to run into him. Now, in the Premier League, besides Arsenal, Manchester City is eyeing the competition, Liverpool is conserving its strength, and Chelsea is also lying in wait.

Tottenham had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Not to mention that Tottenham's owner is a stingy person who is usually reluctant to spend big money on player signings.

Unless Harry Kane wakes up sooner and isn't tied to Tottenham, he might have a chance to realize his first title dream in another league.

Moreover, Qin Ming believes that Harry Kane's level is indeed good, and he should be no weaker than Morata. Even if he doesn't go to a dominant team like Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, he could win the title in Serie A, La Liga, or Ligue 1.

"Thank you."

Harry Kane accepted the gift box, offered a few more words of blessing to Qin Ming, and then turned and disappeared into the crowd.

He needs to prepare early for the North London derby the day after tomorrow.

The entire football world was abuzz with excitement that night.

Especially in China, Qin Ming's hometown, people stay up late into the night just for this moment.

The sports channel at this moment.

“Back when Qin Ming was just starting out, we were 100% convinced that he would become a world superstar in the future; it was just a matter of time. The only thing we cared about was how fast he would grow.”

The pre-produced documentary was released, and He Wei turned to the side to watch it with the fans.

His storytelling voice gently unfolds a tale.

"If someone asks me if I ever imagined that Qin Ming would one day become the FIFA World Player of the Year, the answer is yes."

“This has never been a problem, even in 2014, when he had just moved from Bayern to Wolfsburg.”

"Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but after the Asian Cup, I'm certain of my opinion."

"There are many exceptionally talented players in the world of football. When they make the right decisions at crucial moments in a game, you realize what makes them special. They know when to pass the ball and how to plan their football career."

"On the road to becoming a superstar, Qin Ming got on the right track early on."

“I still remember his first half of the season at Wolfsburg, when he had issues with dribbling with his head down and being unsteady on his weaker foot, but he quickly resolved those issues.”

The documentary continues to play.

"When Qin Ming first came to Wolfsburg, he liked to play football as he pleased, often seeking one-on-one opportunities and then using his personal skills to get past them. However, he rarely toyed with defenders or lavishly let the ball stay at his feet."

The camera turned.

The scene shifted from Qin Ming at Wolfsburg to his teammates.

"At that time, you would really feel fortunate to have Qin in the team. He was a key player in Wolfsburg's return to the championship and stepped up repeatedly when the team needed him."

"He always manages to perform in crucial situations."

"I remember in the game against Bayern, it was he who scored the winning goal. If you can't perform in big games, you can't be considered a top player."

"Qin has done this through his actions."

Arnold spoke to the camera.

"While Qin excels individually, he is also a team player. I would like to say that selfish people are not welcome in any team sport."

"They are a negative force for the team, and they can even drag the team down."

"But Qin always puts the team's victory first. He has helped his team achieve many honors. Even though he has the most time with the ball in the team, no one would say he is selfish."

"However, the best players will never go onto the field with the mindset of taking the easy way out or waiting to be eliminated; they are destined to be active participants in the game."

“They would say: Give me the ball, let me do it. Qin is one of the best players at this point.”

Cazorla recalled, "In last season's Champions League final, he scored the winning goal. Knowing him as I do, he was eager to finish the game himself, and when you have that determination and confidence in your abilities, you deserve everything in return."

The documentary was short and ended quickly. He Wei returned to the fans' attention, pointing to the photo on the screen of Qin Ming holding the trophy with a bright smile, and said, "From the Champions League semi-finals in the 2015-16 season to the Champions League champions in the 2016-17 season, Qin Ming must have experienced a lot."

Even if outsiders feel the same way, they can't understand that feeling.

"Tonight will be the same."

"Why do we like Qin Ming? Perhaps it's not because we love his successes or failures, but because we love his character, his relentless pursuit of what he loves, and his constant self-improvement in order to get closer to his goals."

"I would also like to say to the fans that when you find a goal, and then work hard towards it steadfastly, even if there are setbacks and periods of hesitation, don't forget why you started in the first place."

"If you keep going like this, you might look up soon and find that you've left everyone else far behind."

"Qin Ming's story isn't over yet, and neither is ours. Let's cheer each other on!"

He Wei began to organize his speech.

Amidst the praise of countless people, Qin Ming resumed training, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.

He appeared at the Emirates Stadium carrying the FIFA World Player of the Year trophy.

"King!"

The name of the gunslinger king was shouted in unison at this moment.

In the players' tunnel, the Tottenham players looked solemnly towards the end of the tunnel. The figures that appeared so small in the sunlight gave him an almost suffocating pressure.

Ali's eyes were filled with envy.

His childhood was tragic, which is why he wanted to stand out and prove himself.

According to Dongqiudi, before the match, 70,000 fans at the Emirates Stadium named Qin Ming. Tottenham fielded a 3-4-2-1 formation, and Son Heung-min was not in the starting lineup.

The war is about to start.

The feud between Arsenal and Tottenham is irreconcilable, but for Tottenham fans, they've all suffered together recently, and they've accepted that neither of them has won a title.

Arsenal have won more titles in just two years than they did in twenty.

envy, jealousy, hate!
Arsenal's sense of superiority is also evident; for example, on the streets of North London, a car with an Arsenal logo might freely cut in front of a Tottenham fan's car.

A while ago, a memorial site Arsenal built between the subway station and the stadium was broken into by someone late at night.

London police eventually found out that Tottenham fans were responsible, which infuriated Arsenal fans, who wanted nothing more than to beat the group up.

Floor tiles aren't like manhole covers that can be sold for money.

This group of people are purely driven by jealousy and hatred, and they do things that harm others without benefiting themselves.

"Kick hard!"

"Seven to zero!"

"Beat Tottenham Hotspur!"

The North Stand had already started chanting; the four types of fans were really into it.

Arsenal took the initiative after the match started.

Tottenham were clearly well-prepared today, choosing to start aggressively like Manchester City, with their overall formation pushed very high up the pitch.

Take control of the midfield!
However, when Qin Ming, Fabinho, and Roberto made consecutive passes and cuts, they managed to clear the ball out of the box.

Pochettino's expression changed drastically.

Arsenal is getting more and more monstrous. Qin Ming is not only highly capable individually, but he can also influence his teammates.

The fluid passing and movement just now reminded him of Barcelona at its peak.

In 2009, he coached Espanyol in La Liga, where he happened to be coaching Guardiola's Barcelona.

For those few seasons, he lived under Barcelona's unstoppable possession-based style.

Arsenal's passing and possession style now feels different, yet it maintains the same level of pressure.

The ball was passed to Dembele.

Tottenham's three-center-back system, which relied heavily on the midfield, failed to achieve the desired effect, leading to a breakdown on the flanks.

Dembele charged straight into the Tottenham penalty area.

Snapped!
The ball was passed across to Morata in front of the goal, and the Spanish center forward met it with a shot.

A goal scored with ease.

The match had only been going on for less than five minutes when Morata ran towards the sidelines with a strange cry, and kissed the FIFA World Player of the Year trophy.

He wanted to ride on Qin Ming's good fortune.

Maybe one day I can become the world's best footballer.

The caddie next to him looked around and, after seeing Morata return to the field, ran over and wiped himself with his clothes.

Morata turned around and happened to see this scene.

His smile vanished instantly, and he helplessly spread his hands, "Qin, look at him!"

"Ha ha!"

Qin Ming gave the caddie a thumbs-up, preparing to give him a jersey after the game.

Fabinho patted his bald head. "I know you're craving the trophy, but you can't just drool over it."

Morata walked back in silence.

tired!

Arsenal players walked back to their own half with their arms around each other's shoulders, while Tottenham players in the distance looked a bit dizzy, as if they had been kicked unconscious.

Lloris was too lazy to even yell at his teammates anymore.

Their tactics were sound, and the players executed them flawlessly.

Blame it?

Arsenal is ridiculously strong.

That midfield was able to get the ball out, which directly led to their collapse on the flanks and affected the last line of defense.

Harry Kane gazes up at the North London sky at a 45-degree angle.

Ali rubbed his knees; even though the game had only just begun, he already felt exhausted.

After the game resumed, the camera turned to the sidelines.

Pochettino and Wenger's expressions were in stark contrast, with Pat Rice gesturing wildly as if he were standing on the pitch.

As a former Arsenal captain, his attitude towards Tottenham is self-evident.

Just fight!
