Hard to win

Karl Bess was very curious about what Wang Feng was practicing every day, so he also stayed. Seeing the ball flying under Wang Feng's feet, as if an invisible tentacle was manipulating the ball, Bess was dumbfounded.

He walked towards Wang Feng and said hello, "Hey buddy, are you doing magic tricks with your feet? I think Ronaldo is no better than you with such a powerful foot technique."

"It's not that good. How about a game of one-on-one?"

Bess took the ball steadily and said, "Okay." So the two began one-on-one training. After being breached by Wang Feng for the twentieth time, Beth sat on the ground and waved his hands: "Don't play anymore, I finally understand the feelings of those opponents who were broken by you, I hope we don't become opponents, it's too terrible."

Wang Feng said with a smile: "It's not so exaggerated. There will be confrontation and tactical fouls in the official game. It won't be so easy."

Bess said seriously after hearing the words: "Yes, Wang, you have to be careful, many teams play dirty, you have to pay more attention."

Wang Feng nodded. He is a player who has been fouled a lot. He has been tackled and pulled down many times, but his body seems to be relatively strong, and judging from the sensory feedback, he didn't even have hidden injuries.

Putting aside this serious topic, Wang Feng said with a smirk: "It's all here, let's continue, your pass is very good, and it will be mine in a second. Let's practice catching the pass."

Bess was helplessly pulled up by Wang Feng, and began to train with him. Wang Feng found that using a ball to simulate the movement of a real person still has some limitations, because people will be full of uncertainty due to their own judgment.

Now with Bess as a partner, Wang Feng's passing quality has been further improved. The two practiced until very late before returning to the residence together.

On the first weekend of February in the millennium, Genk challenged La Louviere away. In the 36th minute, the referee's whistle sounded. A yellow card and a midfield set-piece was awarded to Genk.

Wang Feng sat on the ground and rubbed his right calf, which was already a little purple, and his senses clearly told him that there were some slight kick injuries. Just now when he was catching the ball and preparing to attack, the opponent's defensive player stepped forward to grab the ball and kicked it directly on his calf. This is the third time in this game, so the home referee couldn't stand it anymore, so he decisively showed a yellow card.

Bess came over and said, "How about it? Can you hold on? Do you want the coach to replace you?" Wang Feng shook his head and said, "No, it's a minor injury. We must win this game." So Bess pulled Wang Feng up. He jumped twice, not feeling any serious problems, he went into the match again.

At halftime, the score was still 0:0. Although Genk had the advantage, La Louviere continuous fouls on Wang Feng also hindered their offensive momentum.

The team doctor was using spray to treat Wang Feng's leg injury. The head coach asked about Wang Feng's injury with a worried face. After learning that it was not serious, he felt relieved. La Louviere's defense is too dirty! He intends to replace Wang Feng, but the team has no way out.

So he could only emphasize again and again that Wang Feng pay attention to safety, "Lie down when it's time to lie down, as much as you can, this is also a way to deal with violent defense." Head coach Aimee Antonis seriously warned Wang Feng.

After the opening of the second half, Wang Feng was still deeply involved in the opponent's high-pressure defense, but he did not give in. The backcourt was in the middle and the frontcourt, the left, the middle, and the right. As long as he still had strength, he would keep running, trying to get an opportunity.

In the 80th minute, Genk intercepted the ball in the backcourt. The defensive player accurately found Wang Feng in the midfield with a long pass. He quickly turned and chased the ball.

The defensive player originally wanted to stretch out his hand to hold Wang Feng, but suddenly realized that he already had a yellow card on him. After a moment of hesitation, Wang Feng accelerated and rushed a long way.

At this time, there was only one defensive player in the backcourt of La Louviere, and he quickly came to follow up the defense. After Wang Feng approached him, he suddenly stepped on the ball with one foot, then turned 180 degrees and pulled the ball with the other foot , getting rid of the defender.

"Marseille turn, Wang used a wonderful Marseille turn to sway the opponent's No. 5 player, and now the only thing standing in front of him is the goalkeeper!"

"The goalkeeper made a decisive attack... beautiful, gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! , Wang Feng easily swayed the ball past the goalkeeper and scored the ball in the face of an empty goal."

"In the 80th minute of the game, Wang Feng stood up again. He played an exquisite defensive counterattack, used his personal ability to pass three players in a row, and finally sent the ball into the opponent's goal."

"In this game, La Louviere fouled Wang Feng at least 20 times, but they still couldn't completely stop him. He is a real striker, as long as they reveal a flaw, he can hit it with one blow." The commentator is sparing no effort to praise Wang Feng.

Naturally, Wang Feng couldn't hear all of this. After scoring the goal, he rushed to the corner flag and roared vigorously, as if venting his depression of being fouled repeatedly.

The head coach Antonis immediately made substitution adjustments, replacing Wang Feng with a defensive player. When he was off the field, some fans of the home team also applauded Wang Feng. They were also moved by Wang Feng's tenacious spirit. 

The final score was locked at 1:0, and Genk won a valuable victory. At the post-match press conference, Genk coach Antonis first severely criticized La Louviere approach, "This is simply against the spirit of the competitive spirit of football, it is too dirty."

He also expressed dissatisfaction with the referee on duty, thinking that La Louviere should have received at least two red cards, but they only received one yellow card.

Speaking of Wang Feng, Antonis said: "Wang is undoubtedly our key man. Even if he is kicked in the calf, he can lead Genk to victory." 

On the other hand, La Louviere's head coach David Gary believes that the referee's penalty is not a problem, and his players are playing under the rules, but he admits that they are not thorough enough to restrict Wang Feng. "We lost to Wang," he said.

The next day, there was another uproar in the Belgian football world. Many newspapers reported the game in detail, and the post-match interviews of the coaches of both sides were also written out intact.

"Sports Daily" believes that there is indeed a problem with the referee's penalty scale, which has caused Wang Feng to suffer too many fouls, which is undoubtedly unfair.

The "Standard" felt that Genk coach Antonis's practice of bombarding the referee after the game was not advisable and should be punished.

Soon, Genk received a penalty order from the Belgian Football Association. Coach Antonis was fined 5,000 euros, but he was not suspended. This is good news.

At the same time, for malicious fouls, the referee's penalty seems to be heavier. In the national derby between Anderlecht and Bruges, the referee showed a total of 5 yellow cards and 1 red card.
