"Tang Zhenglong, the top scorer in the Asian Cup, only used two games." "Sports Weekly"

CCTV5 used the Chinese team's early qualifying as a reporting point and weakened Tang Zhenglong. After all, the first shot was the first. Now there are many people in Asian teams who want to destroy Tang Zhenglong and they need to be protected.

"Seoul Sports" reported that Chinese players did not know how to respect their opponents, focusing on the conflict between Tang Zhenglong and his opponents.

Most of the Iranian media reported on the disaster as a "disaster".

In addition, European media have also paid attention to the Asian Cup. The British "442" reported that Chelsea's Tang Zhenglong broke the Asian Cup scoring record.

The Guardian briefly mentioned the score and said that Asian football is on the rise.

Germany's "Kicker", "Tang Zhenglong decided the game, just like in Cologne."

"Bild", "Tang Zhenglong returned to Asia and became invincible."

"Express", "Cologne people support the Chinese team and Tang Zhenglong."

Just when Tang Zhenglong was feeling happy, something unpleasant happened at the Iranian station. An Iranian sports reporter threw a tomato in Hashemian's face and angrily told him to get out.

"You traitor."

"I'm not a traitor. That's Zen. Tang Zhenglong told me. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."

"..."

Tang Zhenglong?

The popular fried chicken in the Asian Cup, does this matter have something to do with him?

The reporters immediately started to get excited.

The next day, the Chinese team resumed training, but many reporters came, and the target was naturally Tang Zhenglong.

Zhu Guanghu had given up resistance. It was of no use anyway. No matter what, these reporters couldn't be driven away.

"Don, first of all, congratulations on becoming the top scorer in the Asian Cup. You surpassed Ali Daei, and you are so young."

"Hahaha, thank you."

"Don, according to Hashemian of the Iranian team, you told him to close his eyes, and you said it was something called Zen?"

"Did you lie to him?"

"Because it looks like something you can do."

Tang Zhenglong’s head immediately got bigger. What on earth did that idiot say to the media?

Tang Zhenglong smiled and said: "I know you media are very bad. I don't know what you are talking about. Hashemian and I have no problem."

There were no smart phones in this era, but there were MP4s, and someone took out an MP4 player.

"Don, this is the interview Hashemian gave us. He said that he closed his eyes because he was deceived by you."

This is disgusting. Although Tang Zhenglong will definitely not be punished by the AFC for this, it is not a good thing to lie to people on the court.

"We are all adults, do you think this is possible? Am I such a person?"

The reporters nodded in unison.

"..."

"You bastards!!"

"Okay, since you want to know, then I'll explain things clearly."

Tang Zhenglong told the whole story, and of course he added some extra details.

"You mean that this kind of Zen really exists, and that you are not lazy on the court, but practicing Zen?"

"Yes, it is this kind of Zen that makes me strong. This is a kind of Chinese wisdom."

The reporters were stunned for a moment, and they also knew that Tang Zhenglong's words could not be believed at all.

An Iranian reporter asked: "Then why is it completely ineffective against Hashemian?"

"How do I know? Maybe he is too stupid."

With a bang, the Iranian reporter became angry, picked up the tomatoes and threw them at Tang Zhenglong.

You deceived Hashemian and now you call him stupid.

"Hey, security."

The press conference ended in chaos.

The third opponent of the Chinese team is Uzbekistan.

At the pre-match press conference, the Uzbek coach spoke highly of the Chinese team, especially Tang Zhenglong.

The reporters were all snickering. Uzbekistan was saving their morale because the Chinese team had already appeared. As long as the Chinese team let them go, they would be able to beat the Iranians and advance to the group stage.

Therefore, even if the Uzbeks were asked to kneel down to Tang Zhenglong, they would not hesitate.

As a result, the Chinese team will find it a bit difficult to handle. If it loses, it is likely to be criticized verbally and written, and it will be said to be a tacit understanding of the game.

Tang Zhenglong once again attended the pre-match press conference. This time, the Chinese team's appearance was staggered with that of Uzbekistan, which meant that when Tang Zhenglong came, Uzbekistan's press conference had just ended.

"Don, you're late. The Uzbek coach praised you so much just now. You really should hear it with your own ears."

"How about you repeat it to me?"

The reporters rolled their eyes.

"Don, you made a bet with the Iranian coach, did he make good on it?"

Tang Zhenglong shrugged. He couldn't really let the other team's head coach be his follower. The bet was just to humiliate the other team.

"It's impossible for me to do something so extreme. We Chinese repay evil with kindness."

The topic returns to the third game.

"Will the Chinese team deliberately let things slip?"

Tang Zhenglong was very smart, "Excuse me, what does releasing water mean?"

"Just send in substitute players."

"So sending substitute players is called letting go? Then why does FIFA call them substitute players instead of letting players go?"

puff!!

"We will only play according to our needs and if we need to bring on substitutes then we will do that."

"Then will you play?"

Tang Zhenglong shrugged, "It depends on the head coach's arrangement. I have no right to interfere."

On the other side, there was a press conference before the match between the Iranian team and Malaysia. There should be no problem with Iran's victory over Malaysia. The key lies in the other match. The Iranians are worried that the Chinese team will give in, so the match here will be irrelevant.

"If the Chinese team does not send Tang Zhenglong in the third game, then I think everyone knows what the Chinese team wants to do, right?"

"I guess the Chinese team and Uzbekistan must be conspiring to kill us before the game."

Someone asked, "Do you have any evidence for saying this?"

"I don't."

"But I think everyone in the football circle knows what will happen. Think about the "coincidence" 2-2 between Denmark and Sweden in the 2004 European Cup."

It was the last round of the 2004 European Cup. Denmark and Sweden had to draw 2-2 to defeat Italy and qualify together, and the final result was really 2-2.

The Iranians are hinting that the Chinese team and Uzbekistan will cooperate like Sweden and Denmark did.

An Uzbek reporter immediately refuted the Iranian coach.

"Haha, Uzbek football is not competitive at all in front of Iran. The right to qualify for this group should be ours."

Uzbekistan's popularity has exploded, but the level of Iranian football is indeed higher than that of Uzbekistan.

The Chinese reporter was helpless. He thought that the Chinese team would qualify early with 6 points in two games, but he didn’t expect that there would be so many things. The AFC specially sent AFC officials to supervise the game on site to ensure that the Chinese team did not play match-fixing.
