Chapter 173: The Spring Breeze is Thrilling (Chapter 4! Get it done with 20,000 words!)

"Beckham's long pass...Tiger took off the ball in his chest and rushed forward, Guardiola forced him up... Beautiful! Beautiful! Extremely picking! Tiger got rid of Guardiola! Avelado fought and retreated, Tiger... Another beautiful breakthrough, Avelado was completely deceived by Tiger's shake! Face the goalkeeper alone! Hesp's attack! The third! Fake shot and real buckle dodged Hesp, pushing the shot... There is no suspense, no suspense! Four to three, Manchester United leads again! Now is the 86th minute of the game. Unless a miracle occurs, Barcelona's Champions League road this season will end!"

In the quiet Camp Nou, when Tiger pushed the ball into the empty goal, the entire Camp Nou became extremely quiet. After shooting, Tiger staggered for a while, and then quickly stood up straight. He did not run wildly to celebrate, nor did he make any extraordinary moves. Instead, he slowly, slowly, slowly, raised his hands up, spread his palms, and looked up at the sky.

He didn't know where Lin Danda was watching him, but at this moment, he was really grateful to Lin Danda. Although this unknown object always hit him, teased him, and always threatened him with his life... But Tiger knew that if Lin Danda had not appeared in his life and the existence of the main god space, he would never have become the focus of everyone on such a stage.

The focus of attention from the audience was especially from the attention of opponent fans - if the eyes could kill people, Tiger could die 90,000 times now. Of course, if a passionate gaze equals 10,000 pounds, Tiger would now have a possession of hundreds of millions of pounds.

After a while, a crisp applause rang out from a corner of the stands. What surprised Tiger was that the corner was right in front of him, but no matter how he looked, it was all the stands belonging to Barcelona fans...

Then the whole stand began to sound applause, very rhythmic, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, s

Almost all Barcelona fans were applauding, drumming the guy who defeated their team's hope of qualifying. They could see that the team they supported played well and played beautifully. Their number one star proved his value with two goals and one instigation, but the opponent's No. 14 used one goal, one direct assist and two instigation to prove what another type of attack midfield could do.

After a few times of clapping, Barcelona fans stopped collectively and sat down quietly and silently. However, this scene was faithfully recorded by the video recorder - no one knew who the first Barcelona fan to applaud Tiger was, but this unknown Barcelona fan created a history - the first visiting player to let all Barcelona fans stand and applause at the Camp Nou Stadium!

After Barcelona's archenemy Real Madrid fans once stood up and applauded Maradona for his wonderful performance at the Bernabeu, Barcelona fans finally became a grand event - just because of this shot, this game was enough to become a classic and recorded in history!

Tiger's performance has also been unanimously praised by everyone, including the media who have criticized and questioned him before. This is the world of football. When you perform poorly, everyone will criticize you. When you perform well, all media reporters seem to become your supporters...

"After the fifth round of the Champions League, the two Premier League teams are in the same tragedy and joy - their gap is only whether they have Tiger -"

"The little Manchester United tiger made Barcelona surrender, and Camp Nou's applause was dedicated to him."

"New hope for English football! Chinese mixed-race midfielder Tiger began to conquer the entire Europe! Hodel, if you don't want this player to join the Chinese national team, let him enter the national team to play the game soon..."

For a moment, various titles appeared in major British media, and the entire London flagship street began to become active - a player who can make news is always popular. After all, Tiger's identity is a bit special - he is a British, but a mixed Chinese race. He was unknown in the low-level league before, but he directly joined Manchester United in one fell swoop, and at Camp Nou did what anyone had done before. If he was selected for the national team, he would be the first Chinese player in history to represent the English national team to play (I once said in the previous chapter that there was a Chinese player Ferrand Sue, who was also the first person of color in the history of the English national team, but the FA did not recognize this). These gimmicks immediately made Tiger popular in the eyes of the reporters on Flagship Street...

But they also admitted that Tiger had a very difficult agent and a head coach who was even more difficult to deal with - Ferguson's protection of players is well-known all over the world, and with his status, he could not sell the reporter's account. However, Ross was very smart. He helped Tiger turn down most of the inexplicable interview requests, and just chose some interviews that were more beneficial to Tiger. It was really difficult to get the interview rights from him. Since Tiger said the wrong thing in that interview, he has always been in the same attitude towards the reporters who came to him - shut up and pretended to be mute, just like he could not speak English.

So the reporters were able to change their goals and start with Tiger's girlfriend Kelly, which gave Kelly a lot of opportunities to be exposed and interviewed. Kelly was always rejected. As a model, she always appeared in the spotlight.

However, the exquisite Kelly also made the reporters suffer enough. She always cleverly leads the topic to her work. In addition to the opportunity to promote herself, the reporters can only get trivial news such as "Tiger is very considerate." "He likes to eat fried chicken nuggets", "He usually comes to London to accompany me when he is free", "He cares about people very much", "He knows the price of fruits very well", and so on. In the end, the reporters can only sigh that the family is more cunning than the other...

They interview Tiger's parents, Tiger's parents only sell fruits to them, they interview Tiger's girlfriend, Tiger's girlfriend only introduces themselves to them... In this way, it seems that the agent is better to deal with. Although there are not many, they can always get some better information...

After returning from the Champions League game, Tiger's performance was still quite outstanding. In the home game against Leeds United on November 29, Tiger shone again in the game. First assisted Solskjaer to equalize the score, and then attracted the attention of the opponent's defensive players in the frontcourt. Keane, who inserted it, overtook the score. After the opponent's forward Kowell used a mistake by Stam to equalize the score again, Tiger used a beautiful personal breakthrough in the 80th minute to surpass the score again. The three-to-two score was also the final result!

"Under no circumstances, he will give up the chance to score goals." After the game, Ferguson also praised Tiger's performance: "We have always lost a lot of goals in recent games because our defense is not tacit enough, but in the gradual improvement, in this situation, Tiger is always able to stand up and score key goals in a stalemate. This guy has a big heart, and what he can bring is not just some technical elements that our midfield lacks. He is a warrior and an excellent warrior."

When the reporter asked how Scholes would arrange the two equally excellent attacking midfield positions after his return, Ferguson just replied lightly: "I will let them all show their abilities... After all, having such two excellent players is also a headache."

In the next league game, Manchester United's opponent is Aston Villa, who is now ranked first. In order to prepare for the last game of the next Champions League, Ferguson hid some of the main players, including Tiger. It's not that he doesn't care about the league, but compared with the league, Ferguson now cares more about the Champions League game.

In the end, the game was tied one-to-one, and Manchester United could quietly face the challenge of Bayern Munich at home - they only needed a draw to win the first place in the group.

However, something unlucky is that both for Tiger himself and for Manchester United - in the last pre-match training, Tiger sprained his right foot in a free kick practice. His injury was not serious, but he could not be in the next game!

Ferguson seemed helpless about this result, and Tiger himself was also helpless. During free kick training, he wanted to learn Rivaldo's way of shooting the ball with his feet and shooting the elevator ball, but he was injured by accident and was unable to play with top midfielders like Effenberg, Basler, and Jerry Metz, which was also a huge regret for Tiger himself.

Fortunately, Manchester United should be able to qualify in this game, and Ferguson didn't say anything. In Wednesday's Champions League, he sent a midfield combination between Keane and Bart. In the end, it was Keane's forward insertion to score the first record for Manchester United. Although Bayern's Bosnian Bosnian winger Salihamidic equalized the score, he still couldn't steal the first place in the group. The two teams worked together to qualify from this group.

The other teams qualifying were Olympiacos in Group A. They beat Porto and Ajax, two teams that once won the Champions League, and Juventus in Group B. This is the luckiest team in the line. The top three in this group have eight points. Juventus barely qualifies for the goal difference. Galatasaray was defeated by Athletic Bilbao in Spain when he was tied, because Real Madrid won the Champions League last season.

Spain has three teams participating in the Champions League matches. Unfortunately, except for Real Madrid qualifying in Group C and Inter Milan, Athletic Bilbao and Barcelona were both sunk in the group stage. Manchester United and Bayern qualifying in Group D, Dynamo Kiev, Arsenal died tragically in this group, and the F group qualifying in the Bundesliga last season. They beat Eindhoven and Benfica and qualified in this group one round in advance.

However, this injury seemed to be just a small episode. In the next league game, Tiger returned from injury and played. Although he missed the match with Bayern midfielders, Tiger's performance was not affected much. Relying on his two direct assists, Manchester United scored a goal away from home, and tied the excellent Tottenham Hotspur, who was in good shape, two away games.

In the next two rounds of the league, Manchester United's performance was not very good. They were first tied by Chelsea at home, and then surprisingly lost to Middlesbrough 2-3 at home, suffering the first home defeat in various games this season. However, no one could deny Tiger's personal performance. In these two games, Manchester United's players were in a downturn. If Tiger had not been the savior before the end of the game and two assists to help his teammates score goals, Manchester United might not have made a point, and might have lost even more faceless at home...

The first Christmas in Manchester came quietly after this defeat.

The outstanding performance on the court, Tiger's profits were not bad either. Because of his outstanding performance recently, Ross signed two endorsement contracts for him, first of all, becoming one of Nike's signing players. This contract brought him a year of one million pounds, and the other was to endorse Ray-Ban sunglasses. Tiger himself also liked this sunglasses, so although the endorsement fee was only 500,000 pounds, he was still quite happy.

These two endorsements brought him a year of £1.35 million (one of which belongs to the agent Ross), but his subsequent income became a slightest. When he saw the crew of "Two Big Bulleys" split the box office for him, Tiger was quite surprised...

The British domestic box office was 23 million pounds, and the overseas box office was 7 million pounds (in the United States and abroad, the box office was not high because there were not many stars and more in line with the tastes of the British). After deducting high theater fees and high taxes, Tiger's 30% investment shares brought him a profit of 3.6 million pounds, making a net profit of 3 million pounds!

Even if he endorsing a salary increase, he can only get more than 2 million in a season. Now he has only invested 500,000 pounds and can earn more than 3 million pounds. Tiger couldn't help but sigh that movies are really profitable...

However, with so much money, Tiger also felt it was a bit hot, so before Christmas, he planned to hold a party and invite some friends to play - now there are many friends in Manchester United, and there are also Jones, Gay Ritchie and a group of people in the crew at that time outside the stadium - so after the holiday, Tiger, who was proud of the spring, began to think about what kind of people to invite to visit...
