Vol 4 Chapter 315: The sixth life of the black cat

It is said that cats have nine lives. Many people think that this legend comes from the "Sutras·Quotations", saying: There are nine life for cats, which are connected, spirit, calm, righteous, enlightened, light, essence, energy, and god.
In fact, this is very nonsense, because there is no book called "The Buddhist Scriptures", and the Chinese characters of the real Buddhist scriptures are difficult and obscure, and it is impossible for such a big vernacular to exist.
In fact, this statement comes from ancient western folk superstitions. It is said that witches can use cats to borrow life to achieve the effect of immortality. Some places say that you can borrow nine times, such as England, Spain, seven times, and French-speaking areas think it is six times.
Later, this legend came to China, which is not surprising, because domestic cats came to China along the Silk Road earlier, not our indigenous species.
Regardless of black and white cats, a good cat can have nine lives. But for the black cat Sunderland, this year is their sixth cat life, but it is already hanging up.
Why is Sunderland called the "Black Cat"? This is related to their city history.
Sunderland is located in the north of England, in the middle of the island of Great Britain, facing the sea and looking east to the port city of the European continent. Earlier, there was the most abundant coal mine on the island, which created the status of the industrial center of central Sunderland.
Because of the geographical environment, the coal trade relies entirely on sea transportation. In the early years, young adults in Sunderland basically spent their lives on ships. In order to prevent rodent infestation, cats are generally kept on ships, so over time, cats have become one of Sunderland's city symbols and appear in various paintings.
Why is it a black cat? Because black cats look more mysterious and powerful, black colors are easier to express in paintings.
When a group of middle school teachers established the Sunderland Club more than a hundred years ago, they adopted the team emblem of the black cat squatting on the football. So even though the coal mine has long been hollowed out, few people in the city are sailors, and the team logo has become two vulgar lions, the Sunderland Club is still known as the "black cat".
Sunderland began relegation five years ago, and at the end of the five seasons he landed on the shore with less than one goal. The scenery is the same this year, but it is even more sinister. After 26 rounds, Sunderland was firmly ranked first and couldn't drive away.
Seventy-three and eighty-four, the sixth life of the black cat is also a problem.
David Moyes was cheated by Sunderland executives last summer.
After two seasons of coaching tour of Spanish Real Sociedad, which was absolutely unsuccessful, Moyes, who was in a daze, heard the call from Sunderland and was drawn by Xu with a lot of money.
The 53-year-old Moyes shouldn't have been so credulous. Sunderland was really willing to spend money. Why did he walk the tightrope every year to relegation? But who told him to know nothing but football, he unknowingly got on the thief ship of Sunderland.
When the season started, Moyes suddenly realized that none of the promised buyers had come, and he had to rely on his own connections to recruit old players such as Pinar, Anichebe, and Oviedo. As a result, Sunderland started the new season with a wave of 10 consecutive victories. So far, after 26 rounds, Sunderland has 5 wins, 4 draws and 17 losses, and the deputy squad leader warms his ass.
How can such a Sunderland be better than Hazhen, which ranks third in the British championship?
In the first round of the Premier League this season, Manchester City defeated Sunderland 2:1 at home. At that time, Zhuo Yang had not signed with Manchester City. Aguero's penalty kick in the opening 4 minutes and an own goal from Black Cats defender McNair 4 minutes before the end. The game was actually lucky to win. The non-famous striker Jermaine Defoe scored a goal in the middle.
The 35-year-old Defoe has a very strange record. In the early winter of 2015, he returned to Sunderland from Toronto FC in the major leagues, and then scored in the game against Swansea. Therefore, all 20 teams in the 2014-15 season were broken by him.
I don't know the significance of this record at all, and it is not a feat that has been scored in a season. A Premier League striker who has played professional football for more than ten years, is it really rare to be here? It can only be said that the ups and downs of the team happened to be more interesting this year, not how good Defoe is.
Anyway, it's definitely not as good as Aguero. These false records must be A Kun disdain for statistics.
Four days after the FA Cup match with Harbin, in the 27th round of the Premier League, Manchester City came to Sunderland Stadium to challenge the deputy squad leader Black Cat. Guardiola continued to use the rotation. In view of the turbulent population on the front line of the team, but there are not many reliable ones, Aguero and Zhuo Yang must have one person in charge. Guardiola chose Akun.
Zhuo Yang said, in this case, I don't need to follow the team. I will give a few more classes to the students of Royal Beiyin. The employment situation of art students is severe. I should pay more attention to the students in teaching.
In fact, he wanted to sneak to Germany to accompany his wife.
Guardiola saw at a glance what he wanted to make. Laogua's family members are all in Manchester, and the full man doesn't care about the hungry. He very cruelly put Zhuo Yang on the list and let him accompany Arteta on the bench to talk nonsense.
In fact, Gua Shuai was made guilty by the team’s neurotic ups and downs in the league. Even in the face of Sunderland, he was still cautious. Zhuo Yang sitting beside him can provide him with a sense of security and is also a big killer at necessary moments .
As a result, Arteta was almost annoyed by talking about it, Guardiola was also purely worrying, Aguero solved the problem on the court, and there was no trouble for Zhuo Yang to shoot.
Sunderland is not weak on paper. Not only do they have Defoe, they have England's substitute pickford, and there are several old Manchester United players, including O'Shea, Gibson and Januzai. UU read www.uukanshu. com Among them, the 36-year-old John O'Shea is also the captain of Sunderland, so he can be the black cat sergeant and Moyes is the shovel officer.
Zhuo Yang and Manchester United O'Shea are old acquaintances. In those years, they used to squabble on the court and drank off the court. They were still the face of the silent grandfather.
Aguero broke the deadlock by grabbing a spot in the 42nd minute in the first half. This was his 14th goal in the Premier League this season and also broke the six-round league goal drought.
After scoring the goal, Akun specially observed Zhuo Yang's expression, but found nothing unusual. He celebrated with everyone on the sidelines.
Zhuo Yang didn't remember it himself, but Akun helped him count. He has scored 16 league goals. Akun feels that if he works hard, he should be able to catch up and even overtake.
Regardless of the team's performance, Akun hopes to become the best scorer in the team this season, and hope that the Manchester City people will miss him after the summer.
When Sane received Silva's pass to score the goal in the 59th minute, there was basically no suspense in the game. In the end, Manchester City used up to 72% of the ball to secure the victory 2:0.
This stadium is called Stadium of Light, but for Sunderland, this season is not bright. In this defeat, they are already 6 points away from the relegation zone. If you want to keep the black cat's sixth life, anyway, with Zhuo Yang's eyes, in the remaining 11 rounds, if it is still today, there will be no one. Little hope.
Zhuo Yang didn't have any nonsense on the bench. Although he bored Arteta thoroughly, he was really talking about football. However, he didn't realize that if he missed Sunderland this game today, if he wanted to break the goal of the black cat in the future, the hope was very slim.
At this point, he is indeed inferior to Defoe, although the record is very boring.
