The match against Strasbourg won 1-0. Before Metz could breathe a sigh of relief, he would face his strong rival Paris Saint-Germain in the next round of the league.

Chu Zhongtian was selected for the fifth consecutive roster, which seemed to prove that his position in the team became increasingly stable. Although he had never started.

Since the match was against Paris Saint-Germain from the French capital Paris, China's CCTV Sports Channel also used the game as a live broadcast. However, they did not expect Chu Zhongtian to appear on the 18-man roster before.

The day before the game, the team took a bus from Metz to Paris. In the hotel where they were staying, Ribery and Chu Zhongtian refused the invitation from other teammates to let them go out together, so they hurried in the hotel room and played live football all night.

This time, Ribery can finally get into the process of controlling himself and cooperating with Chu Zhongtian.

Whenever Chu Zhongtian controlled "Chu Zhongtian" assisted Ribery controlled "Ribery" assisted, Ribery would stand up from her seat and make various celebration moves.

Chu Zhongtian was amused by him and laughed.

"I think the person I am is quite close to reality." Ribery proudly said to Chu Zhongtian after deliberately completing a hat trick in a game.

"It's just that my pass is not bad." Chu Zhongtian was worried that his pass was only 65, and it was still a white number.

"Look, you have such a bad pass and have completed a hat-trick to assist, which shows your own strength." Ribery hurriedly praised Chu Zhongtian.

"This game is really simple, but the real football game is not that simple." Ribery's adjustment was very difficult. In many cases, he could shake off all opponents by speeding up and dribbling. In this case, his passing power was almost impossible to show.

"We can't cooperate like this in the real world."

While speaking, Ribery passed the ball to Chu Zhongtian and ran forward by himself.

This is an obvious two-pass and one-slamming wall-like cooperation. Chu Zhongtian passed the ball to him, breaking through the opponent's last line of defense, and then Ribery scored the goal.

"A such obvious two-way and one in the real game will definitely not be able to do it." Ribery jumped up again to celebrate the goal, while Chu Zhongtian pointed to the TV screen and said.

"It's not necessarily true." Ribery said to Chu Zhongtian while celebrating, "The two-pass and one-on-one cooperation in front of the penalty area is very penetrating. Of course, the opponent has been defending tightly, but it is not a chance at all. It depends on how you and I cooperate. This is the simplest, and we can make some changes. For example, I don't cut in straight lines, but run sideways, pass the ball to you, you pass it to me, and then I shoot from a long time!"

Ribery said, making gestures to explain to Chu Zhongtian.

"We can do this... I pass the ball to you, and then cut in to attract the opponent's attention, but don't pass the ball to me. After I'm pulling you in front of you, you can break through yourself, or pass it to someone in other directions, or just shoot from a distance by yourself!"

"There are two consecutive times and one." Chu Zhongtian thought of another attack routine. "You pass it to me, you run horizontally to attract the attention of the opponent's defense. I pass it to you again, and then I turn around and run in. You pass it to me, and I pass it to the forward in the penalty area."

"It's not bad. And it's not necessary to play in the middle of the penalty area, but also in the ribs. Look at me getting the ball on the side. If the opponent presses harder, come up to pick me up." Ribery said this, and simply save the game and exit the game, enter the training mode, and practiced it with Chu Zhongtian in the game. "I will pass the ball to you, and then don't hesitate to pass directly to the bottom line. I will definitely insert it to chase. Next, I can pass it or break through myself..."

"If you attract the opponent's defensive attention, you can also pass it back to me. I can follow up in the penalty area." Chu Zhongtian put forward his own thoughts.

"That's it!" Ribery clapped his face, "Look, one two and one, how many changes can we evolve?"

Chu Zhongtian nodded: "Football is a movement that requires brain-based exercise."

"Yes, yes." Ribery was very excited when she said that she was cooperating with Chu Zhongtian.

"Chu, you have more passes over the top and run forward. Have you noticed this problem?"

Chu Zhongtian nodded.

"But sometimes, after your pass hits the ground, I can't catch it anymore. No matter how fast I run, it's not as fast as you can kick out the football with all your strength. You should observe my running situation and decide which technique to use to pass the ball. If we counterattack, there is a lot of room in front, but I'm still far from your pass landing point, you add a swing force to the football so that you can kick the ball forward vigorously without worrying that I can't catch it. After the ball hits the ground, it will swing, which can slow down the ball speed, and I can easily catch the ball."

Later, the two stopped playing games, so they started discussing each other in the room with their hands and feet. When it comes to the rise, they stood up to demonstrate in person. Ribery told Chu Zhongtian that he was used to running. Chu Zhongtian talked about his habit of passing the ball.

It was not until the prescribed rest time that the two of them went to bed. Chu Zhongtian felt that it was a big deal to discuss football skills when he was with Ribery. He liked this feeling, which was much more interesting than going out to drink and find a woman to play with when he was having something to do.

※※Paris Saint-German (PSG) is actually not an old-fashioned strong team, because this team was born in 1970, but they rose very quickly, insisted on offensive football, which was pleasing to the eye and was very popular. The first world footballer in the African continent, Viagra, Bad's classical midfielder Lai, and Djokaf, Ginola, Loco, etc., who were trained by themselves, have played in this team. Recently, the technical master who played here is Brazilian Ronaldinho.

Paris Saint-Germain's status in domestic football in France was established in the early and mid-1990s. So far, the game between Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille is called France's "national derby". Just like Real Madrid and Barcelona in Spain, Juventus in Italy and Inter Milan, it is a heavyweight event that symbolizes the highest level and level.

So the reason why this game is eye-catching is actually the Paris Saint-Germain side.

French live broadcasting agencies originally gave China Central Television a live broadcast signal, considering that Paris Saint-Germain has a reputation and there must be many fans abroad. It is obviously much better to broadcast this game than to broadcast games like Caen and Toulouse. They did not consider that there is another Chinese player in Metz, who would give extra points to broadcasting in China.

This game kicked off at 9pm local time in France, which is already the latest time to kick off. In China, it was 3am the next day. In order to broadcast the game, CCTV even gave up a La Liga broadcast, which caused complaints from La Liga fans. They cursed: "CCav is messing around again! Put the attractive La Liga matches and don't broadcast them, and go to transfer to the French Liga! What's so good about Ligue 1? Can the European second-rate league be compared with the world's No. 1 La Liga? We have to watch Real Madrid's away game against Santander!!!"

However, Kang Jianbo and his friends shouted that CCTV was wise, because compared with superstars who admire Real Madrid, they were more concerned about whether their compatriot Chu Zhongtian could play in this game.

There are also people who don’t want to delay either side. Although Lin Danda is good, I don’t know if he can play. Real Madrid superstars’ performances should not be missed. So they watch Ligue 1 on TV and La Liga on the computer network, and neither side is delayed. "Anyway, I think Ligue 1 is just watching Lin Danda. If Lin Danda doesn’t play, I won’t watch it. Let’s watch the game in Real Madrid first."

On this day, Kang Jianbo was no longer home again. He found an Internet cafe where he could watch TV and made a night out. While deleting meaningless water and advertising posts on the website forum, he chatted with friends in the group, looking forward to the start of the competition.

The most discussed in the group is whether Chu Zhongtian will play in this game, and if he plays, he will play for many minutes. Optimistic people think that Chu Zhongtian is fine in this game, and it should not be less than fifteen minutes. Because Paris Saint-Germain is too strong, maybe Chu Zhongtian needs to be replaced in the end to strengthen the defense? Pessimistic people think that Chu Zhongtian may not play, because the reason is that the opponent's offensive is too strong. If the game ended early, Chu Zhongtian would have no chance to play.

At 2:20, Kang Jianbo felt a little hungry and asked the network administrator to make a bowl for him and "get a bucket". While eating, he continued to chat with everyone in the group, waiting for the start of the game.

In addition, he was talking to him on QQ. Lin Beiyao in France. Lin Beiyao was watching live TV in the dormitory. He felt very regretful that Lin Beiyao did not go to watch the football live. If it were him, let alone Paris, he would have followed him even if he went to Marseille in the south.

"Football is to be watched on the spot to be exciting!" He continued to instill in Lin Beiyao what to do as a qualified fan.

During these days, he has gradually taught Lin Beiyao, and at least he will not ask him questions like "Why can only change three people in one game?"

"Of course I went to the scene at home, but I'll forget it away. Do you know when the kickoff will be held in this game? It's nine o'clock in the evening! Will I come back after watching the ball? I'll have classes tomorrow morning." Lin Beiyao complained there.

"Oh... It's a pity... If I were to skip class than go to watch the game on site."

"You are you, I am me." Lin Beiyao pouted.

"Hey, beauty. How likely are Lin Danda to play in this game?"

"I'm not a coach, how do I know?"

"Guess, you have a close relationship with Lin Dan recently, and you can always see some clues, right?"

"I don't know... I don't know this very much, so what clues can I see?"

"Oh... no one knows whether Lin Danda is going to play. If he doesn't appear all night, it will be a big blow to people..."

Lin Beiyao felt that his high school deskmate was right: "That's it. I'm live broadcasting here, and the speed is definitely faster than your domestic live broadcasts, and you are still watching online TV in an Internet cafe. If Chu Zhongtian comes on stage, I will tell you that it can be three to five minutes faster than in China!"

Unexpectedly, Kang Jianbo refused her suggestion without hesitation: "No! It's boring to spoil it! I want to keep a little expectation and suspense...hehe!"

Lin Beiyao snorted and turned her face to the side.

There was a small TV next to her computer. At this time, the scene of the Princes Park Stadium in Paris had already appeared on the screen. She said to Kang Jianbo: "We are going to start the live broadcast here!"

Kang Jianbo gave a drooling and envious expression: "It's all started? Damn, it's only two forty now... I'm so envious!"

※※※ Chu Zhongtian followed Ribery to the stadium and began to warm up.

"This stadium is really big..." He sighed. In terms of visual effects, it is larger than the Stamford Bridge he has been to. But in fact, the capacity of the two is similar. Stamford Bridge is 42,000 and Princes Park Stadium is 48,000. However, the stadium area of ​​Princes Park Stadium is still a little far from the audience stands, and the slope of the stands is relatively gentle, so it looks larger than Stamford Bridge.

This is the first time he has followed the team to play at home in the French Ligue 1 giants. The stadiums of the French Ligue 1 are generally shabby and cannot be compared with those of England. Their home ticket prices here are determined based on the quality of the stadium, while the highest ticket prices of the Sands Forian Stadium in Metz are only 40 euros. It is said that in the second division, the highest ticket prices of the Sands Forian Stadium in Saint-State was only 29 euros... What about those good stadiums? It is said that if you visit the Gerland Stadium in Lyon, everyone will have to pay 5.8 euros per hour.

This is the gap.

The stands of 48,000 people were not full. This game was not a national derby. The audience was not that enthusiastic. It would be nice to be able to fill 40,000 people.

※※※"I saw Chu Zhongtian, he was warming up with Ribery!" Lin Beiyao told Kang Jianbo through QQ while watching TV.

Kang Jianbo immediately transferred to the group: "Central Channel 5 is still displaying advertisements. I will first broadcast the situation before the game to you. Chu Zhongtian is warming up outside!"

"How is his condition?" asked immediately.

"How is Chu Zhongtian's condition?" Kang Jianbo turned to Lin Beiyao again.

"How do I know?" This was Lin Beiyao's answer.

"She doesn't know." Kang Jianbo could only reply to his friends in the group like this.

"Oh..." The group of people sighed.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian has learned that he will not start in this game, and Ribery continues to start. In fact, he has been used to it after so many games and has no hope for the starter. Now he only hopes to have the opportunity to play as a substitute. Starting? Take your time.

After the warm-up, everyone returned to the locker room. The substitutes changed back to warm coats and trousers and left the locker room to go to the bench. The starting eleven people stayed to listen to their head coach Jean Fernandez's final arrangements and key instructions.

Fernandez is not the kind of coach who likes to inspire the team with words and exaggerated body movements. He rarely speaks except for those who like to express his meaning with clear tactical arrangements. He will never roar and wave his arms in the locker room and tell his players: besides victory, he is still a fucking victory. He hardly even says swear words.

Chu Zhongtian walked out of the corridor in a thick Puma jacket, walked along the sideline to the visiting team bench, then sat down and started waiting for the start of the game. He would no longer stand on the side of the court and sigh at anything like he did when he first entered the roster, nor would he do something like he would step into the court that seemed very symbolic and actually had nothing to do. He didn't think about anything except waiting to appear, and his heart was still.

In front of him, the camera passed by Metz's bench with a camera and put these substitutes into the camera one by one. When he was photographed in front of him, he did not stop at all. For French football, Chu Zhongtian is just an unknown person and is worth paying attention to. Perhaps there may be French people who think that being able to play in the Ligue 1 substitute for dozens of minutes is a great happiness for this Chinese player, and Chinese fans will be happy because of the opportunity to play in these few dozen minutes.

The foreign gambling industry is very developed. Before this game, the bookmakers gave odds for every player on both sides, including starting odds, appearance odds, goal odds, assist odds, number of minutes of playing odds, goal odds in every minute... and so on. In addition to guessing the scores and outcomes of both sides, fans can also play some other events, such as guessing whether Ribery scored his first goal in this game in Metz, and guessing how many minutes he would score.

Chu Zhongtian also has similar odds. The starting odds are thirty-five, the substitute's odds are 50, the assist odds are 50, and the goal odds are the most astonishing odds are 75.

No one is optimistic about Chu Zhongtian's goal.

Ribery's assist odds are 1-2.5 points, and he is now Metz's number one assist. However, his goal odds are 15 points, representing Metz playing 18 rounds of the league, with a lot of shots, but he has not scored the first goal since joining Metz. If you really want to become famous, goals are undoubtedly the fastest and most effective means. Five assists can't beat a goal... The people in the stands saw more than Chu Zhongtian saw when he warmed up, and basically could sit three quarters of the stadium stands. The broadcast on the scene began to remind everyone: "Paris Saint-Germain is about to play!"

A huge cheer immediately sounded in the stands.

Metz's fans are pitifully few, and looking around, they can hardly be found.

For this game, the odds offered by the bookmaker were that Metz won 12 in one penalty for Paris Saint-Germain. Judging from this odds, Metz was in danger in this game. It was a delusion to take three points away from the Princes Park Stadium. It was enough for them to cheer and celebrate the whole night.
Chapter completed!
