Chapter 36

Vuong Phong is sitting in the Henkrominus Arena dressing room, arranging his sneakers for the last time. Tonight they open the first round of League One against Lokeren.

In the few matches that were about to end, a series of Genk's problems were fully revealed, such as the lack of breakthroughs in players, the loss of connection between the midfield and strikers, etc. The training of the new squad is still too short.

"The players of both teams, under the guidance of the referee, slowly entered the field. The home team fans immediately applauded enthusiastically. Genk's performance in the second half of last season was so good that many fans had high hopes for them. I got off to a good start."

"Fans held up signs with Wang Feng's name on them to cheer for him. It's unimaginable that a 17-year-old boy has become the number one star in League One. It is unknown whether he can continue his magical form of the tournament. last season? "

When the referee blows the whistle, the match officially begins.

Karl Bass quickly passed the ball to Gareth Barry, who then passed the ball back to the defence. Genk did not rush to attack at the beginning of the match but waited for opportunities in the backfield.

Loren moved forward with all his force, trying to take advantage of Henk's unstable grip to launch an attack.

After several passes, Christian Chivu made a precise pass from the backfield and found Wang Feng in midfield. come back.

Bei Si and Wang Feng get along very well. Seeing that, he directly threw the ball, penetrated Lokeren's defense, falling behind.

After Wang Feng caught the ball, Lockren's defenders followed him one position behind. So Vuong Phong made a reverse pass, followed by Barry, directly hitting the goal, the ball flew over the crossbar. "This shot was extremely threatening, but unfortunately Barry didn't have time to stop and ended up hitting it high. If he could have stopped the ball and adjusted, it would have been better." This shot also made Lokeren players and coaches break out in cold sweat.

Henk's sharp counterattack also caused Lokeren's defense to gradually shrink, and Vuong Phong's defense also became tighter. With the experience of last season, Vuong Phong was confident, constantly moving, waiting for space.

In the 29th minute, with a long pass from the backfield, Barry headed the ball to Wang Feng who was in front. Faced with the oncoming ball, Wang Feng lunged with his left foot, dodging the defensive player pressing forward.

After that, Wang Feng dribbled the ball into the penalty area, faced the goalkeeper, and calmly volleyed from the far corner.

"gooooooooooal! Wang Feng from Genk got through the opposing gate first."

"That was also Henk's first goal this season. The 17-year-old continued his form last season and became the most feared striker in the tournament."

After Wang Feng scored, he quickly turned around and rushed out of the field, headed to the stands, raised his hands in the air in celebration and received the cheers and cheers of Genk fans. Other group members who arrived later also rushed in and surrounded him. "Before the match, there were still many media speculations that Genk would let Caspar Blanche and Adrian Gale leave this summer. Wang Feng is making efforts to control the overall situation. Now this kind of doubt can be end. In just the 29th minute, Wang Feng created two good scoring opportunities and captured one."

After leading 1:0, Vuong Phong was obviously not satisfied. He clearly felt that Genk still had the ability to score again, and at the same time Lokeren's defensive focus also decreased a lot after breaking the deadlock. Just 6 minutes later, Henke returned. After receiving Beth's pass on the right wing, Wang Feng shook the defender and quickly dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Rolling the ball back, following teenager Jason Aldridge pushed the ball from close range and put the ball into Loughren's goal.

After scoring the goal, Aldridge appeared very excited. This was his first match for Genk and he scored a goal. It can be said that it is a perfect start.

Henk, who had a two-goal lead, found it easier and easier to attack. At the end of the first half, Barry suddenly dribbled and broke through after receiving the ball in the middle of the field, attracting the attention of defenders, then responded to Bess's follow-up near the top of the arc. After receiving the ball, Bess quickly crossed the penalty area diagonally 40 degrees and 5 corners.

A figure stepped out from the defense team. That's Vuong Phong. After receiving the ball in the penalty area, he adjusted slightly and shot straight into the goal. The ball went straight into the corner closest to the goal, score 3:0! Vuong Phong scored two goals!

In the end, the score remained the same until the end of the match. The second day after the first match, major Belgian media reported on the results of Ligue 1 teams. Among them, Anderlecht, Club Brugge, Standard Liège and Genk naturally became the focus of attention. idea. .

These teams deserve to be strong teams and all won. Among them, Anderlecht crushed Jultwarechem 5-0, and Jan Koller alone scored three goals, showing his strength at the peak of world fighting power.

Genk lost their championship team this summer. Even though he has been strengthened, his strength will inevitably decline. Many people predicted that his first match would be very difficult but did not expect that they would be able to defeat their opponent.

"Wang Feng continued his crazy performance in this match last year. He scored 2 goals to help Genk defeat the opponent. He was also named the best player of the match."

"This year's competition for the Golden Shoe will be fierce."

"The surprising thing is that Genk's defense seems to have become very stable. After Ajax's summer loan to Christian Chivu, the defense that was criticized last season has improved a lot."

"Genk, who are both offensive and defensive, will be strong contenders for the League title this season, and I also look forward to their success on the European stage."

..... After the first round, Genk breathed a sigh of relief and the team gave everyone two days off. Loi Ni invited Vuong Phong to return to Verton to have a meal with old friends, Vuong Phong easily agreed.

Verton's manager Theron Hodum had previously called Wang Feng, hoping to use his name for promotional purposes. Vuong Phong naturally agreed to this request. After all, he also comes from Vertone's youth team. How can he help? If you're busy, of course you won't refuse.

Hodum's mood can only be said to be regretful, he should not have sold Vuong Phong cheaply, who would have thought that his current value would skyrocket like a rocket. Especially after Paris Saint-Germain offered him 8 million euros, he even regretted it.

According to Rennie, since Verton took Wang Feng as a role model, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has attracted many young players, and also those with outstanding talent. Head coach Mette Magritte is bold. Using rookies, from the end of last season to the beginning of this season, this team's performance is not bad. Although there is still a certain distance from the peak, but after a few years of accumulation, there is a good chance.

When Wang Feng arrived at Verton's training ground, many young players gathered to take photos with this tournament star. Vuong Phong smiled and answered each of their questions. Head coach Magritte arrived: "Wang, thanks to you, Verton has become more vibrant." Then, he looked up and down at Vuong Phong: "You have improved by leaps and bounds. It seems that in less than a year there has been a change." I can't even recognize you alone.

Vuong Phong smiled modestly and said a few words, then went with everyone to the restaurant, a small local bar in Verton, which provided food and drinks. Almost everyone on the Verton team was at this dinner, even Paul Chuck was there.

He proactively walked beside Vuong Phong and apologized for his previous discriminatory words and actions. Vuong Phong accepted his apology and the two smiled to end their disagreement. Chuck sighed in his heart, in this life he and Vuong Phong probably wouldn't have any intersection, Vuong Phong would only get higher and higher, the gap between him and him would get wider and wider. After Vuong Phong contacted his former teammates, he also felt embarrassed. Once upon a time, I just wanted to be a main player for Verton and earn a little money to support my family, but who would have thought that I could play in League One and earn money that a lot of people would never now won. in their lives.

He is very grateful that he worked hard and was never lazy, and he will never be lazy in the future, because he knows that once something is abandoned, it will not never find it again.

Early the next morning, the two returned to Genk, and Vuong Phong also began his training plan.
