What ball king, call me ball god

On August 8, the first game of the fourth round of the Premier League.

Manchester United travel to St Mary's Stadium in Southampton.

Southampton is no stranger to Chinese fans.

Many fans jokingly called him a fellow because he often sold players to Liverpool.

Such as Mane, such as Van Dijk.

However, these were not within the scope of Lin Kedi's consideration.

Lin Kedi really felt strange after seeing Southampton's formation before the game.

Because today Southampton's formation is a 4222.

An inward formation with no wings.

Double midfielders, double midfielders and double centers.

What kind of play is this? Have you given up the wing completely?

Or let the two full-backs plug in?

Lin Kedi was puzzled.

But after the game started, Lin Kedi put all these thoughts behind him.

In the game, Southampton's strange formation did not bring them any good results.

In the 17th minute, Lin Kedi moved to the left and made a change with Rashford, received a pass from Luke Shaw, dribbled the ball in the empty wing of Southampton, cut inside, and faced Southampton The right back Cedric, with an easy shake, shook the Portuguese to the ground, and then Link reached the left corner of the penalty area, and then shot directly with a kick.

These are the several shooting methods that Lin Kedi is best at now.

It has an angle and the ball speed is slower. It is very suitable for shooting from both sides. It is very reasonable to shake the defensive player and shoot directly into the far corner.

And this shot directly broke Southampton's goal.

1:0.

Southampton's defense is basically like this.

In the 27th minute, Lin Kedi received the ball in the frontcourt and split it to Mata on the right.

After taking the ball, Mata made a long pass to the penalty area. Rashford on the left broke into the penalty area and scored with a header.

2:0.

In the 69th minute of the second half, Lin Kedi received a long pass from the backcourt, stopped his chest, turned around, opened the angle, and at the top of the penalty area, there were three defensive players in front of him, and shot directly.

3:0.

Lin Kedi scored twice.

This is Link's 4th goal in 10 games.

It is also the player with the shortest time to score 10 goals in the history of the Premier League.

Lin Kedi made another history.

After creating this history, Lin Kedi was replaced by Ten Hag.

Because after this game, it is the national team match day.

Lin Kedi really wanted to tell Ten Hag that in fact, I only have one game on the national team match day.

Unlike most European or South American countries.

In the national team match day of the Asian national team in September, only one official match was arranged.

So the Chinese national team also specially arranged a friendly match.

match against Thailand.

Lippi told Linke that you don't have to participate in this game.

Therefore, Lin Kedi will fly directly to the Maldives on September 9 to participate in the Asian qualifiers for the 7 World Cup.

The period before this was naturally considered a holiday.

But when it was said that it was a holiday, Ali came directly to him.

"Ali, now that I see you, I know there is another event to attend, right?"

"Yeah, you can't refuse this event."

"Can't refuse? What activity?"

"The signing ceremony of Armani's global ambassador."

"Armani? Have we endorsed it?"

"It was negotiated last week. They decided to sign you as Armani's first global ambassador. The endorsement fee is also the highest in Armani's history. 3000 million euros for 2 years."

"That's 1500 million euros a year. Is this the highest in history?"

"Uh--Lin, you have a big appetite now!"

"That's right, that's a lot. Okay, where is the signing ceremony?"

"Global, in London. In three days."

"July 9?"

"Yes, there will be a Premier League Hall of Fame event in London on September 9. The Premier League has also invited you."

"The Premier League Hall of Fame? It has nothing to do with me."

"The Premier League Hall of Fame has not officially started yet. Their first batch of lists is scheduled to be announced in June next year. But before that, they made a list of 6 people, including a Premier League celebrity list. This event is the Premier League Celebrity Asian player list. So—”

"Which Chinese celebrity did they invite?"

"Sun Jihai."

"That's fine, I'll go."

"But there is a question. I want to say in advance that although this is an official invitation from the Premier League, I think this question is a bit big, so I still have some reservations."

"Doubt? Reservation? What?" Lin Kedi was a little puzzled.

"Sun Jihai is a famous man of Manchester City, he is officially certified by Manchester City. We are in Manchester United now-those famous players may-"

"I know, you are talking about Gary Neville and Schmeichel, right? In fact, it should be okay, Sun Jihai has retired, and the name of inviting me must be because Sun Jihai and I are Chinese. Actually, I really don’t know if you don’t mention it, but if I know about it, I will really go. Because before me, the most successful Chinese player in Europe is Sun Jihai. I know, I'm going!"

"Okay then. I will pay attention to public opinion, but if you want to post photos and social media, try not to include the word Manchester City."

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid."
-
So, on September 9, in a press hall in London.

Premier League Hall of Fame event.

Lin Kedi had already arrived at the scene, and he saw Sun Jihai in the background.

He stepped forward.

Sun Jihai was chatting with a white male at this time.

Sun Jihai was a little surprised to see Lin Kedi.

"Brother Jihai!"

"Forest--"

"Just call me to defeat the enemy."

"Defeat, you are really here."

"Of course, I heard my agent say that if you are here, then I will definitely come."

"Defeating the enemy, you are the pride of all of us Chinese footballers. I saw your goals, which are really beautiful. I have watched your highlights many times."

"Brother Jihai, stop praising me."

"How can this be a boast, this is serious. You don't know, under your influence, many Chinese Super League players intend to study abroad. Like Zhang Yuning, I heard that he was influenced by you, so to Heerenveen."

"Yes, Brother Zhang asked me about studying abroad, and I supported him going abroad. But with him, there are only three players studying abroad now."

"More coming soon—"

"Really? I'm not in China, and I don't know anything about the Chinese Super League—"

"You know Zhu Chenjie and Jiang Shenglong, right?"

"Shanghai's pair of central defenders are paired up, and they came from Genbao Base, I know."

"One of them has been spotted by the French second team, and the other has been spotted by the German second team. They have already asked for it."

"This is a good thing, going to the secondary league to exercise is very effective!"

"I agree with you. They are very young. Now that they are at this age, training alone can improve a lot. What's more, they can have a certain chance to play in the secondary league. These two are already domestic central defenders. Outstanding."

"I am looking forward to reuniting with the national team more and more!" (End of this chapter)
