Vol 3 Chapter 188: Regretful champion

After a short break, the two sides returned to the stadium again and started the overtime game.
In the first half of overtime, basically the Japanese team besieged the Chinese team's goal, the Chinese team players were recovered across the board, and even the center became a central defender.
Gao Hongbo no longer expects his team to kill Japan in overtime. This kind of thing, once came to the semi-finals. If the finals come again, it is unlikely.
As long as he can drag the game into the penalty shootout, he wins.
In the first half of overtime, the Chinese team did not concede a goal, the score was still 0:0.
After the two sides directly exchanged venues, the second half began.
Unfortunately, the Japanese team scored just two minutes after the second half. The person who scored for the Japanese team was Zhou Yi’s teammate Shinka Kagawa in Dortmund!
When Kagawa Shinji scored a goal, a deafening cheer sounded in the Khalifa Stadium. The game that had been a little depressing and dull before now finally had its first highlight...
While Kagawa Kaji was madly celebrating the goal, the TV broadcast cut the shot to Zhou Yi in the box.
Zhou Yi leaned on the back of the chair and looked up at the ceiling. His expression could not be captured by the TV broadcast camera. But from this action, it can be seen that Zhou Yi is quite regrettable.
It's a pity indeed, the game has hit this part, and finally was scored by the Japanese team...
The Japanese team finally defeated the Chinese team with this goal and won the Asian Cup.
It was supposed to be a game with no suspense, but I didn't expect the Japanese team to win so hard in the end, which really surprised many people.
In the absence of the core Zhou Yi, the Chinese team's stubbornness is really impressive.
※※※
After the game, the Chinese team received a silver medal and Zhou Yi also got a piece. In addition, wearing a suit, he also received a trophy symbolizing the best player of the Asian Cup.
Although the Chinese team failed to win the championship, Zhou Yi's performance in the Asian Cup is obvious to all. Without him, the Chinese team will not reach the final. It can be said. He alone improved the strength of the Chinese team by two grades. This kind of performance cannot be justified for the best player.
So even if the Japanese team won the championship, the best player will not be selected from their team.
This point, the Japanese media and commentators have no objections.
The championship of the Japanese team can be said to reflect the overall strength of Japanese football and is logical.
The Chinese team can reach the final. It's really beyond everyone's expectations. It can be said that Zhou Yi did it by himself.
Because Shinji Kagawa played in Dortmund. Therefore, the Japanese media often report on Dortmund's match. Zhou Yi's level is very clear to them. Zhou Yi takes this award as it should be.
After the game. As Kagawa’s biggest contributor to the Japanese team’s championship, the journalists were surrounded by reporters. Among them, Japanese reporters excitedly said to Kagawa: "Congratulations. Kagawa! Your performance in this game is really good, you can get the best Deserved! Do you think this victory has laid the position of Japanese football as the king in Asia? Asian football has opened the era of Japan?"
The Japanese reporter was too excited to ask such a question. The reporters from South Korea, Iran and other countries can be heard, but Chinese reporters are particularly unhappy. He glared at the Japanese reporter, thinking he was a villain.
However, the Japanese reporter didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with his problem. He looked at Kagawa Shinji. Waiting for Kagawa Shinji's answer.
Unexpectedly, Kagawa Shinji shook his head and said: "No, I don't think so. Just to say that this Asian Cup, I don't think we can explain what we won. Because we defeated a Chinese team without Zhou Yi in the final. If Zhou Yi can participate in the finals, the result is not easy to say. I don’t think the Japanese team has any absolute advantage in front of the Chinese team with Zhou Yi."
Kagawa Masaaki's expression was serious, and he didn't seem to be kidding when he said this.
His serious expression and words frightened the proud Japanese reporter, and he was there for a moment, not knowing how to receive Kagawa's words.
The Chinese reporters who were still glaring at the Japanese reporter next to them were surprised. They didn't expect Shinji Kagawa to say such an answer!
Judging from his words, he...has a very high evaluation of Zhou Yi!
Of course, it is not surprising that Kaji Kagawa rated Zhou Yi as high. Everyone is the one who interviewed and reported on the Dortmund match. How does Zhou Yi and Kagawa Kaji know the relationship?
What surprised Chinese reporters was that when the Japanese reporters behaved smugly, they came out to remind him not to be such a Chinese, but a Japanese, a Japanese player, a Japanese star player!
This is not a big deal. At most it is the episode of this interview, but this episode can show how much Kagawa’s attitude towards Zhou Yi...
But his words also made Chinese journalists feel a little sad-yeah, if Zhou Yineng can play in this game, the result may not be the Japanese team won!
What does Zhou Yi think of this result?
Outside the stadium, Zhou Yi held the trophy of the best player, a silver medal hung on his neck, and said to reporters with a smile: "Congratulations to Kagawa for winning the Asian Cup. Now I will ask him to keep it for me for four years Four years later, I will ask him again!"
Before the final, he only said that he could reach the final four years later, and after the final, he had directly targeted the champion.
It seems that the finals still stimulated him. Is there really no regret? Of course it is deceiving!
※※※
On the second day of the finals, the Chinese team and the Japanese team will return to the country, but the foreign players in the team will not follow the team to act together.
They will return directly to Europe from here.
Hao Junmin, Zhou Yi and Kagawa Shinji shared the same flight, arrived at Dusseldorf Airport, and then returned to their respective teams from Dusseldorf.
Klopp also gave a day off to the two players who participated in the Asian Cup. After arriving in Dortmund, they do not have to follow the team's training immediately, but can take a complete day's rest at home and then go to training.
In this Asian Cup, Kagawa Kaji won the Asian Cup and Zhou Yi won the best player, but Dortmund was a bit unlucky.
In their absence, Dortmund played three league games, two draws and one loss. Recently, in this league match, they played 1:1 with Wolfsburg on the road.
Although Dortmund is still ranked first, they are only three points away from the league's second Leverkusen.
From a tenth lead to three points, it makes people feel like fell from heaven.
This shows how much impact Zhou Yi and Kagawa Shinji's departure had on Dortmund. Especially Zhou Yi, as the only core of Dortmund, his departure makes Dortmund's offense seem to have no direction.
And in the 21st round of the league, Dortmund will face Derby opponent Schalke 04 in the Ruhr area at home.
In such a situation, Schalke 04 certainly does not mind letting Dortmund lose one more time, directly pulling them from the league's first position.
At this time, Dortmund badly needed Zhou Yi and Kagawa Shinji to return to the team.
However, although they have all returned to the team, but in the Asian Cup for a month in a row, players must be tired whether they are physically or mentally. It is not easy to say how much they can still have.
So it's not that two people will be fine when they come back. The alarm has not been lifted.
※※※
In fact, for Zhou Yi, even if Klopp gave him a day off, he could not rest at all.
Because he hasn’t come back for more than a month, the locked room will definitely be dirtier than when he stayed for a long time, and the things on the bed will have to be changed, so he can’t rest at all, and he has to clean up his time and energy health.
Early in the morning, he got up and started to change the sheets and quilt cover.
While he was busy in his room, Cortana appeared at the door, and then asked very rarely, "Do you want to help?"
Zhou Yi was surprised and turned to look at her blankly.
"It doesn't seem to be necessary." Cortana was about to leave when she turned around, but was stopped by Zhou Yi who had reacted.
"Eh, we need it! We need help, we need help too much!"
Cortana turned around and walked in, then frowned: "It smells."
"I haven't lived in more than a month..." Zhou Yi explained with some embarrassment.
"Fortunately, there has been no occupancy for more than a month, otherwise the taste will be greater." Cortana waved her hand.
"Hello!" Zhou Yi protested. "That's also the taste of men, just like your women's rooms don't taste the same?"
"But our smell is better." Cortana, while disgusted, began to help Zhou Yi remove the bedding.
Her movements were very brisk, and she was very skilled. Zhou Yi wanted to intervene, but in the end, Cortana was kicked out on the ground that she was in the way.
Cortana said he was here to help, but in fact, he had done everything by himself...
Zhou Yi sat on the sofa in the living room and watched Cortana go in and out, could not help but sigh: "The food is delicious, and the sanitation is so clean... This is how often I quarrel with my mother and then come out to exercise Ability to live independently?"
Cortana gave him a blank look~EbookFREE.me~ But it is really a blessing to you, I can take a good rest..." said, Zhou Yi stretched out a lazy waist and lay back on the sofa.
Then he disappeared.
But when Cortana put all the washed things into the washing machine and cleaned her life, she came back and looked at it again, only to find out that Zhou Yi no longer knew when...to fall asleep!
He just came to help him, he was good, he didn't care about anything, he fell asleep!
For a moment, Cortana wanted to rush to pull Zhou Yi up.
But when I thought that he had just finished playing the Asian Cup, he came back last night, and three days later he will play another Ruhr Derby...
She let him go and let him continue to sleep on the sofa.
And he turned back to his room. (To be continued.) Activate new URL
