While his teammates, coaches and staff were still celebrating the championship in the stadium, Su Dong finally broke away from everyone, grabbed the season's best player award in one hand, and the wine of the best player in the game in the other hand, and walked quickly
Ran into the players tunnel.
He wanted to go back to the locker room and make a phone call.
But as soon as he entered the players' tunnel, he saw his agent Mendes looking at him with a smile at the corner of a staircase.
"Hey Jorge, I was just going to ask you..."
Su Dong stopped before he finished speaking.
He saw his parents and Ma Dawei.
Although they had just talked on the phone not long ago, at this moment, when seeing his parents whom he had not seen for two years, Su Dong felt a little dumbfounded.
An indescribable emotion quickly surged into his heart, his nose felt sour, and he wanted to cry.
"Dad, Mom!"
After shouting, Su Dong blinked his eyes hard. He tried very hard not to let his tears fall, but in the end he still failed.
Both Su Wenji and his wife were already in tears, especially Yang Xiuyu, who had cried countless times tonight.
After hearing Su Dong's cry, both of them rushed forward and hugged Su Dong forcefully.
"What a boy! What a boy!" Su Wen praised his precious son endlessly.
Mother Yang Xiuyu burst into tears and just hugged Su Dong hard.
They had not seen each other for two years, and the feeling of seeing each other again made the three of them completely forget that there was anyone around them.
Ma Dawei was so moved that his eyes turned red. Even Mendez and others who could not understand the language felt this emotion and were filled with sighs in their hearts.
Playing football is never easy.
…
"I've grown a lot taller."
After finally calming down, the family of three went to a remote place to talk.
The parents looked at Su Dong with concern and found that their precious son had really grown taller.
Su Dong was already relatively tall among his peers, and now he is even taller.
"Of course, Mom, I am eighteen years old. According to domestic calculations, I am nineteen." Su Dong chuckled.
"I'm a lot stronger. It seems I'm really practicing." Su Wenji gently punched Su Dong's deltoid muscle with his right fist and said with a pleased smile.
"That is, now I not only practice in the gym every day and practice with the team, I also swim every day, practice yoga, and do some simple physical training and so on."
In front of his parents, Su Dong proudly introduced his life.
"Wouldn't it be tiring if we do this every day?" Yang Xiuyu was more concerned about Su Dong's health.
"Don't worry, Mom, I'm training scientifically, it'll be fine."
Su Wenji and his wife did not understand this, but they both knew that Su Dong hired a professional personal trainer more than a year ago, and it is said that he was a professor at the best university in Portugal, so there should be no problem.
"By the way, Dad, this bottle of wine is for you to drink."
Only then did Su Dong realize that he was still holding a bottle of wine and a trophy in his hands.
"Give it to me to drink?" Su Wenji was a little excited and took the bottle of Portuguese wine from Su Dong's hand with slightly trembling hands.
There were words on it that he couldn't understand, but he didn't know how serious it was. He always felt that the bottle of wine was heavy and weighty.
"How can that be done? I have to treasure it and keep it as a family heirloom in the future." Su Wenji said with a smile.
Su Dong smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's okay, Dad, I still have many bottles at home. If you like them, I'll give them all to you."
He himself doesn't drink, so every time he wins the best award, he either gives it to his teammates or keeps it.
"Then how can it be the same? It was before, but this bottle tonight is different."
When his father said this, Su Dong didn't say anything more. Anyway, as long as his father was happy.
"Mom, this is for you." Su Dong handed the season's best player award to his mother's hand.
My mother was even more excited than my father. She grabbed the trophy with both hands, fearing that it would accidentally fall to the ground.
The two couples held Su Dong in their arms, one on the left and the other on the right, looking extremely proud and proud.
Even at this moment, they still feel like they are dreaming. They cannot believe that their son can achieve such results. This is really surprising.
But the more this happened, the more proud they were of Su Dong.

…………
As a country, Portugal is actually not that big.
The distance from Porto to Lisbon is only 300 kilometers and takes about three hours by car.
When the news that Sporting Lisbon defeated Porto to win the championship quickly spread in Portugal, the entire Sporting Lisbon team also took the bus from Porto to return to Lisbon overnight.
In the Portuguese capital, there are thousands of Green Lion fans waiting for the team's triumph and celebrating the championship crazily.
Following the Sporting Lisbon bus all the way back, in addition to fans' self-driving cars and buses, there were also Su Dong's parents and Ma Dawei, who all followed Mendes' car all the way south.
Since they had to go to Seville to play the UEFA Cup final three days later, Sporting Lisbon did not organize a celebration.
After the team arrived in Lisbon, although they were greeted by fans at the entrance of Alcoschetti, they only stayed for a short time.
Technical Director Aurelio has already communicated with the fans. The team will prepare for the UEFA Cup final next. He hopes that the fans can exercise restraint and not affect the team's preparations and competition.
To celebrate, it’s not too late to wait until the team regains the UEFA Cup from Sevilla!
The team announced its disbandment shortly after arriving in Alcocheti, and the players went home.
…
Unlike Su Dong and others who went to Alcocheti, Mendes took Su Dong's parents and his family directly to their home in the Parc des Nations.
Su Wenji and his wife visited this apartment and were very satisfied with the environment and facilities. However, when they entered Su Dong's room, they almost cried again.
Yoga mats, dumbbells, barbells...
In Su Dong's room, in addition to the bed and table, the floor was filled with various fitness equipment.
Not only were Su Dong's parents surprised, Ma Dawei was even more shocked.
The China News Agency reporter had been very curious about why Su Dong was where he was today and why he had made rapid progress in just two years. But at this moment, looking at this room, he really understood.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "He basically gets up at 4:30 every morning to train, rain or shine. After returning from the training base every night, others go out to play and make girlfriends, but he still
Stay at home and train.”
Mendes introduced Su Dong's situation to Su Dong's parents, and Ma Dawei translated.
"He is the most hard-working player I have ever seen, so I am not surprised at all that he can achieve what he has achieved today. At the same time, I also firmly believe that he can achieve higher and better results in the future."
Ma Dawei was a little surprised by Mendes's evaluation of Sudong, because he knew that Mendes can now vaguely keep pace with the Portuguese agent Vega, and even has a tendency to replace him, because Mendes' players are younger.
To be able to receive such high praise from such an agent shows how exciting Su Dong's strength and potential are.
Different from others, Su Dong's parents were very distressed.
Of course they were very happy that their son could achieve such results, but seeing that he had suffered so much but never said a single word on the phone made them feel uncomfortable and very distressed.
This should be common sense for all parents.
…
Su Dong's parents did not live in Su Dong's home, but chose to stay at the nearby Expo Burj Al Arab Hotel.
It's very close, just separated by a road.
Mendes helped find the hotel, and the agent paid for it.
Not only that, Mendes even offered to be responsible for all the expenses of Su Dong's parents while they were in Europe, but Su Dong politely refused. He didn't like to take advantage of others and cause trouble to others.
This is also true for Su Dong's parents.
Su Dong gave his salary card to his parents, allowing them to eat, drink and have fun in Lisbon as they pleased by swiping his card. Ma Dawei was responsible for the guide and translator. In return, Su Dong agreed to accept an exclusive interview with Ma Dawei after the UEFA Cup final.
.
This will be Su Dong's first exclusive interview with domestic media.
In the next three days, Ma Dawei took Su Dong's parents around Lisbon and the surrounding areas.
Su Dong, on the other hand, did not have a holiday and started recovery training and preparation for the UEFA Cup final the next day.
Sporting Lisbon overcame Porto to win the championship, and Su Dong became the youngest Player of the Season in the history of Portuguese football. Both pieces of news caused an uproar in Portugal and were even reported in European football.
In addition to those professionals who have been paying attention to the Portuguese Super League and Sudong for a long time, more and more media and fans have also realized that Sporting Lisbon in the Portuguese Super League also has a figure like Sudong.
Especially when the news spread back to China, it caused a huge earthquake.
They all knew that Su Dong played well in the Portuguese Super League, but they never thought that he could win the Portuguese Super League Player of the Season and create Portuguese football history. He was only eighteen years old!
Domestic fans are extremely excited, and the media is reporting and hyping wildly. Everyone calls Su Dong a genius and believes that he will become the hope of Chinese football.
As a result, many people began to pay attention to the UEFA Cup final, and the authoritative national television station also decided to broadcast this event live.
But it was the national team that treated the news about Su Dong coldly, which puzzled everyone.
Why has a talented center that even Ferguson favored been unable to enter the national team?
Could it be that the national team doesn’t need Su Dong?
Are we that strong?
…
When the country was abuzz with speculation about Sudong's best player in the Portuguese Super League, the AFC also announced the latest news on its official website.
Japanese international Shinji Ono won the 2002 Asian Footballer of the Year, the South Korean team won the Best National Team, and Hiddink was honored as the Best Coach. These three awards were all based on the performance of South Korea and Japan in the World Cup.
Su Dong was shortlisted for the Asian Footballer of the Year and was the only Chinese player shortlisted. Unfortunately, because it was a competition year, Su Dong could not compete with Shinji Ono. However, in the battle for the best rookie, Su Dong defeated South Korea.
Player Li Tianxiu won the Rookie of the Year.
In response, the domestic media was once again in an uproar.
There are early signs of missing the Asian Footballer of the Year, but Su Dong's ability to win the Rookie of the Year is enough to prove his performance.
Even many media, including Japanese and Korean media, are vying to believe that Sudong will be the strongest contender for the 2003 Asian Footballer of the Year.
If we can win the UEFA Cup, it will be even more certain.
