Section 509 The Box at Stamford Bridge (5)

 The Tao Te Ching had a great influence on Wang Ai. To study philosophy, you don’t necessarily have to go to the sidelines. Some ordinary classics are worth reading again and again. This book is what Wang Ai has observed and summarized throughout his life, reaching up to the universe and down to life.

The first time he came into contact with traditional Chinese classical philosophy. This book was bought casually from a street stall when he was in high school. The pages are already yellowing now.

From Liaoyang to Beijing, from China to Germany, to Spain, to the UK, no matter where he goes, Wang Ai has this book on his bookshelf.

At this time, in the visiting team's locker room at Watford, Wang Ai certainly didn't spend five minutes thinking about some theory of heaven and man. Instead, he used this book to help him enter a state of forgetfulness about things and myself, so that he could remember everything in his mind before entering the stadium.

An information firewall was opened inside to temporarily isolate those disturbing people.

This was Kang Si's idea for Wang Ai. She said: "Since you can't let it go, you can consider forgetting it for the time being. The competition is only two hours anyway. You have a lot of spare time to struggle with it until you completely sort it out."

After that, what you have to do now is to maintain peace for 2 hours, and maintain a quiet period of time."

Wang Ai has tried to abandon selfish thoughts in the past. For example, in Wuhan three years ago, in a key game to qualify for the National Olympics, he used a "Lord of the Rings" given by a fan to eliminate interference. However, at that time, the "information" Wang Ai had to face was

The amount of information in "Interference" is not of the same order of magnitude as it is today, so Wang Ai made this old book "resurface".

Clark followed Wang Ai. When Wang Ai didn't speak, he didn't make a sound and silently locked the door of the locker room. He had seen a lot of players' quirks, including those who prayed, listened to music, massaged, and talked.

There are even people dancing. Although there are few people reading, there is nothing worth making a fuss about.

Although other players are in different situations than Wang Ai, they face similar problems. Some are due to personal reasons, such as family, business or even love, and some are purely out of nervousness. The "One Step to Heaven" game is not suitable for everyone.

A small amount of mental pressure can make even some big-name players nervous.

Walking into the red and yellow Vicarage Road stadium, the slightly lower stands were far less stressful than at Stamford Bridge, which made Wang Ai feel relieved.

Sitting between Cudicini and Mikel, Wang Ai leaned back, wrapped his coat and watched the game. While his teammates were chatting quietly beside him, Lampard has been in a lot of trouble recently.

Terry did not play in the national team match due to a broken wrist, but yesterday returned to Chelsea and immediately participated in training, which made the fans dissatisfied. Similarly, Terry asked the club to sign a nine-year contract with him, with a weekly salary.

The £130,000 agreement also became a topic of chat among teammates watching the game.

These are widely circulated in the outside world, but they are not secrets at all within the team. Especially Terry's request, which many people think is whimsical. He is now 27 years old, and he will sign for 36 for another 9 years, so the club decisively

Rejected. In fact, if the club knew about Terry's long career life and the skyrocketing salary in the Premier League in the future, they would be happy to sign him now.

In addition, the news about Robben is also worrying. On this national team match day, he participated in two Dutch team games and played the entire game. However, he returned to the club yesterday and was diagnosed with a serious knee injury. This season

The rest of the game is basically out of the question. Real Madrid's tireless pursuit of Robben, coupled with Robben's frequent injuries, may be sold by the club in exchange for transfer funds. Robben himself is also not satisfied with the "low salary" at Chelsea.

Expressing his dissatisfaction once and being able to defect to Real Madrid at the same time was a temptation he couldn't refuse.

There was a lot of commotion off the field, but the players on the field still kept their spirits up. However, there were too many international players in Chelsea, and the FIFA virus was particularly fierce. Facing the underdog Watford, there was nothing they could do, and they were almost defeated first. The entire first half

Seven or eight Chelsea players completed more than a dozen shots, but the quality was unbelievably poor. Drogba's empty-net volley actually hit the stands.

In the 10th minute of the second half, Chelsea's offense still did not improve. The helpless Jose turned around and pointed in Wang Ai's direction with his finger, and shouted "wiwi"! Wang Ai straightened his back and stood up, lowered his head and ran back and forth on the sidelines.

Muscles and bones, a few minutes later, the tired full-back Ashley Cole walked to the sidelines and high-fived Wang Ai to change positions.

Jose used his counter-trend move again: go forward!

The formation also changed from 442 to 352. Wang Ai will form the left and right wings with Wright. As soon as he came on the field, Wang Ai received a long pass from Ballack. He did not stop the ball and kicked it in the air, passing it to the center who came to respond.

Lampard then bypassed Francis and ran towards the baseline. After receiving a knock from Lampard in the middle, he changed his route and rushed directly to the penalty area without going down.

Drogba in front moved back, Wright ran to the middle of the penalty area, Demerit and Stewart were the two central defenders, and Shevchenko moved sideways at the top of the penalty area. In short, Wang Ai suddenly changed his route and launched a charge.

, causing confusion between the enemy and ourselves in Watford's penalty area.

At the corner of the penalty area, facing the blocked No. 2 Chambers, Wang Ai moved the football toward the baseline with his left foot. Chambers was driven to move his center of gravity toward the baseline. Unexpectedly, Wang Ai immediately pulled the ball with his left foot.

Back, cutting to the middle, the two bodies were parallel. Central defender Demerit hurriedly moved laterally to block the ball. Wang Ai seized the momentary gap and decisively kicked off the ball. The football had a small arc, which interfered with Demerit.

According to his judgment, the ball flying close to the ground landed in front of the goal, bounced a little, and then refracted above the body of goalkeeper Foster and entered the goal.

Wang Ai, who was full of energy, shook off the pursuit of his teammates and ran to the stands of his own fans waving his arms.

Duan Xuan, who was in charge of broadcasting the game, lamented in the commentary: "After 20 days, Wang Ai finally scored again for Chelsea. This will dispel the rumors that he will not score."

Guest Zhang Lu: "...hehe, it's only 20 days, hehe."

Duan Xuan was embarrassed: "Isn't it because he entered too much? We are all used to it."

Ten minutes later, Duan Xuan said tiredly: "Director Zhang, why do I not take it seriously when I see Xiao Wang slightly scoring a goal?"

Zhang Lu stared at the screen and said: "You still don't understand him. He has been very evil since he was a child... Look at this!"

Duan Xuan opened his eyes wide and saw Wang Ai's figure on the screen in front of the penalty area. Wright in the distance was sending a pass. Wang Ai pressed Rinaldi and jumped up, rubbing his forehead.

The ball changed direction slightly, went far behind goalkeeper Foster, and bounced off the post and into the goal.

Zhang Lu turned to look at Duan Xuan: "...hehe."
