The members of Team Rangers were originally a little demoralized, but now they are beginning to feel resentment in their hearts.

When Zhang Kuang took the ball after the restart, Whittaker made a sliding shovel with his spikes out and shoveled directly towards Zhang Kuang without closing his feet.

Zhang Kuang's foot was shoveled hard, and then Zhang Kuang screamed and fell to the ground, followed by another foot.

Whittaker, who was making the tackle right after, also screamed.

Hiss.

Will players who score consecutive dribble goals be tackled?

Di--

The referee immediately blew the whistle and then stepped forward to ask about the extent of Zhang Kuang's injury. At this time, the Manchester United players rushed up to fight, and the players from the Rangers team also gathered around to block it.

Without saying a word, the referee first showed a red card to Whittaker, then waved to the benches of both teams to carry a stretcher and let the team doctors enter.

Rangers team's doctor was stunned for a moment, do they also need to enter the field?

No, isn't that Whittaker's shovel? How did he get injured?

He Wei: "Ah, this kind of tackle is not directed at the ball, but at the person. This Glasgow Rangers No. 16 is really bad. This is trying to destroy Zhang Kuang."

Xu Yang: "Yes, if you can't play on the field, you will be useless. Then who dares to play on the field? This must be severely punished. I hope Zhang Kuang will be fine and nothing will happen to him."

Martin: "This Whittaker really shouldn't do this. It's ruining other people's careers, and it's also ruining your own. You shouldn't pay such a high price for a game you must lose."

Rob: "Yes, some people just can't settle the score. They don't know that there is no point in doing so. If he tackles Zhang Kuang now, can the Rangers team win? No.

Since a tackle on Zhang Kuang cannot help the Rangers team win, then what is the point of his tackle? To get himself a red card? To make the Rangers team have one less player to play next?"

Martin: "Yes, it is very illustrative. It shows that many of our football players can sometimes read more books and learn more about culture, otherwise they sometimes have unclear minds."

Rob: "That's right, now UEFA not only has to punish him, but also... Ouch, what's going on? Why is Whittaker's foot broken?"

Martin: "Oh, this, this scene seems to have been seen somewhere before."

Rob:"What have you seen where?"

Martin: "Wait a minute, let me think about it, where have I seen this before... Ah, I think about it, in 30 seconds at most, Chinese Zhang will definitely stand up and shake his feet, and then he will be fine."

Rob:"What, what do you mean?"

Martin: "What do you mean? You may not have seen Zhang playing in Ligue 1, and this scene has appeared before. It was the 22nd round of Ligue 1 this year, Auxerre The same is true when plays against Saint-Étienne. Yoann, the defender of Saint-Étienne, also shovels Zhang Kuang..."

Rob: "Ah, I understand. Zhang Kuang was okay in the end, but Yoann's ankle was broken. I heard that he's still not very good at it now, so his career is ruined."

Martin: "Then do you think the current scene is similar?"

Rob: "Hey, this..."

The two were chatting, and sure enough, the camera then turned to Zhang Kuang's right foot, which was bleeding. However, after the team doctor cleaned it and put a hemostatic tape on it, Zhang Kuang shook his foot as if nothing was wrong, and then jumped twice.

He signaled to the referee to enter the field.

On the other side, Rangers's Whittaker was screaming in agony. After a while, an ambulance drove into the player tunnel, and then carried Whittaker into the ambulance.

Now everyone seemed to understand something.

This is revenge, this is Zhang Kuang's on-the-spot revenge, and the revenge is impeccable. If others want to break his legs, he will step on others' legs first.

Hiss!

Thinking of this, everyone who had figured it out took a deep breath and felt chills on their backs.

He Wei: "Oh, this is interesting. The perpetrator was even more seriously injured. After getting into the ambulance, the perpetrator shed some blood and seemed fine."

Xu Yang: "Hey, Teacher He, Zhang Kuang has done this once. In the 22nd round of Ligue 1, when Saint-Étienne played against Auxerre, he stepped on and broke the ankle of the person who tackled him."

He Wei: "Ah? Maybe this is Zhang Kuang's habit of accidentally jumping up? Just like some people habitually use their hands to support the ground when they lose their balance."

Xu Yang: "Yes, yes, yes, this is a habitual action. Maybe Zhang Kuang's habitual action is different from others."

He Wei: "Yes, let me just say that if a person suffers the same injury, he will subconsciously make the same action, which is usually habitual.

Who would go out of their way to retaliate in such a short period of time? If it were you, could you? I believe that 99.99% of people would not be able to protect themselves and then retaliate against others within a few milliseconds, right?

I think it was a kind of subconscious protection and habitual stepping down of the other foot. It happened that all the tackles were basically in the same direction and hit the foot of Zhang Kuang stepping down."

Xu Yang: "Teacher He, I think your explanation is very reasonable."

"..."

Ferguson at the scene and Manchester United's teammates on the bench all looked at Zhang Kuang who was called on to the field and Whittaker who was carried into the ambulance with strange expressions. How to explain this...?

Could it be that...Zhang Kuang is really a wizard? He knows witchcraft?

Ferguson: "Anderson, go warm up, Phelan, tell the fourth official to make substitutions, Anderson comes on, replace Zhang, let Rooney play center, Valencia play left wing, Anderson plays midfielder."

Phelan:"Okay."

After Zhang Kuang came on the field, the players of team Rangers were a little scared when they looked at Zhang Kuang. This person is so perverted.

Soon, Zhang Kuang received the ball, and then he tried his dribbling skills again. It was really cool. He stepped on the ball and shuttled among the crowd of Rangers team, as gorgeous as a butterfly in the flowers.

After passing a few people, he made a pass and passed it to Rooney on the left. After Rooney caught the ball, there was an empty space on the left. He strode forward and shot forward. After running for four steps, he didn't even adjust and just fired vigorously from the spot.

The ball rushed toward the goal like a cannonball. Rangers goalkeeper McGregor flew to save the ball. Although he had straightened his arms, he was still almost five centimeters away from the ball.

'Shua', the ball went in!

4:0

Martin: "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL, the ball went in, China boy Zhang Kuang assisted, Rooney scored, super exciting world wave, Rooney's powerful volley."

Rooney turned around and picked up Zhang Kuang on his back, then ran towards the corner flag area and roared at the fans!

Zhang Kuang celebrated by punching Rooney on the back.

Ferguson smiled, put his hands in his pockets, and chewed gum quickly.

"Phelan, please change."

In the 55th minute, Manchester United made a substitution, Anderson went up, Zhang Kuang went down.

The audience burst into warm applause.

Martin: "With three goals and one assist, the China boy had a perfect performance in his first UEFA Champions League game. Since September, he has been incredibly ferocious and his physical confrontation has become stronger. Today he also showed off his unprecedented extraordinary skills. Manchester United has found a treasure. He is a superstar."

Rob: "Why can Manchester United always find such treasures? Class of '92's Beckham, then Cristiano Ronaldo, and now Zhang Kuang."

Martin: "Perhaps Premier League's other teams should reflect on it, or learn from some of Manchester United's practices."

Rob: "Maybe it's not what Manchester United did, but what Sir Ferguson did."

Martin:"Maybe."

When Zhang Kuang came to an end, everyone at Glasgow Rangers breathed a sigh of relief. They finally no longer had to face the threat of this big devil.

However, only three minutes after Zhang Kuang came off the field, another extremely shocking thing happened on the field.

Valencia received a pass from teammate Brown and tried to break through along the wing. The person guarding him was Rangers left back Kirk Broadfoot.

Broadfoot made a sliding tackle. Judging from the slow-motion replay and post-match comments from all parties, this was a normal defense where the ball was not directed at the person and the movement was not too big.

However, the most cruel things on the football field are often those 'inches'.

The moment Valencia fell to the ground, his body lost balance, and his left ankle was twisted at an unbearable angle. His left ankle was severely dislocated and fractured, and his ankle was "hanging dangling on his calf." The scene was extremely terrifying.

Zhang Kuang stood up in shock. "Fuck!"

This shocked him very much. In this game, a player on both sides had a broken leg?

Then everyone looked at the slow motion on the big screen. The slow motion showed that Kirk Broadfoot did not put the shovel maliciously and was indeed aiming for the ball.

Valencia was so frightened that he trembled all over after seeing that his foot was broken, and then he clasped his hands and prayed for himself. He looked extremely painful and was surrounded by on-site medical staff for treatment for about 5 minutes. Finally, he was put on an oxygen mask and carried directly off the field on a stretcher.

After Kirk Broadfoot saw Valencia's ankle, the tough guy "trembled with fear, holding his head and almost cried", and desperately waved to Manchester United team doctor to come in quickly.

But the Manchester United players on the field had surrounded Kirk Broadfoot, pushing and shoving each other with the Rangers players. Kirk Broadfoot was completely confused. He really didn't want to kill him.

After the scene was noisy for a long time, the referee, after guidance from the fourth official and UEFA, determined that the ball was not illegal and the game continued.

Poor Valencia, this is his second serious ankle injury in less than a year. In the summer of 2010, his right ankle had just undergone surgery.

But this time, bad luck befell his left foot.

Misfortune only seeks out misfortunes, and hemp ropes only break at the thinnest places.

Valencia is really having a hard time, and all the teammates of Manchester United are sighing.

Then everyone looked at Zhang Kuang. Damn it, different people have different lives.

Zhang Kuang was maliciously shoveled in the leg. It was okay. The person who shoveled his leg broke his leg.

Valencia was not shoveled maliciously, but ended up breaking his leg.

What the hell, Zhang Kuang's bad luck with a broken leg was overturned by his teammates?

Hiss, if you think about it like this.

Hey, be a teammate of Zhang Kuang and risk bad luck?

The next game was extremely boring, Manchester United lost their offensive mind, and Rangers team was also in a daze.

Just like that, when the 90 minutes arrived, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Then the UEFA Champions League group match ended in a very strange mood.

Zhang Kuang won the best of the game, and he received the exclusive MVP trophy issued by UEFA.

He also gave an official interview in front of a backdrop filled with advertisements.

Reporter: "Zhang, congratulations on your first appearance in UEFA Champions League, where you contributed three goals and one assist, and won the best of the match award. What is your evaluation of UEFA Champions League? What do you think of your own UEFA Champions League debut performance? What do you think of this game? How do you evaluate your opponent?"

Zhang Kuang looked at the reporter in surprise. Did he ask such a question? Did he throw all the questions at once?

Zhang Kuang: "UEFA Champions League is the world's top football league. I value the UEFA Champions League competition very much. I have long wanted to participate.

I am personally quite satisfied with my first UEFA Champions League game and achieved ideal results. As for my thoughts on this game, to be honest, it was quite unexpected. Two major accidents happened. I don't know how to evaluate it.

As for the opponents, their defense is very good, their playing style is very neat, and their tactical discipline is good. It may be that the players' ability is a little worse, and the players' psychological quality is a little worse. That's it."

Reporter: "What do you think of Whittaker who shoveled you? What do you want to say to him?"

Zhang Kuang: "I don't know what he was thinking when he shoveled me. To use our China saying, he who harms others will ultimately harm himself, and he will shoot himself in the foot.

Wanting to cut off other people's legs at every turn is very vicious and wrong, and even God can't stand it."

Reporter: "It seems that on January 31 this year, when you were in Auxerre, the same thing happened when you challenged Saint-Étienne away from home. Yoann, the defender of Saint-Étienne, wanted to tackle you, but you also stepped on and broke his leg. Is there any coincidence?"

Zhang Kuang: "The coincidence is that they shoveled the same leg of mine, so I subconsciously stepped on the other leg to support it, which shows that my habit when being shoveled is fixed.

So, next time, if someone wants to shovel me, please change the direction and the other leg, maybe this won't happen."

Reporter: "... Just, that's it?"

Zhang Kuang: "Otherwise? What else do you want? Am I going to tell the public the truth that I am a man favored by God?"

Reporter: "Well, thank you for accepting our interview. I wish you a happy life."

Zhang Kuang:"Okay, bye."

Zhang Kuang took his on-site commemorative ball and walked back to the locker room.

At the post-match press conference, Glasgow Rangers head coach Walter Smith looked helpless.

"We didn't play well today," he said, "but Manchester United has a player that our defense can't restrict at all. Zhang Kuang's physical confrontation is too strong, and our defenders are like children in front of him.

There are also two injuries that no one wants to see on the field today. This is something that no one wants to see. I hope no injuries will occur in future games no matter how fierce they are."

The reporter asked, "Then do you think your players did the right thing in those two tackles? Your players made two tackles and two were injured. Do you usually let them tackle like this in training? Or did you specifically tackle Manchester United like this today?"

This question was extremely pointed, and Walter Smith answered it very seriously:

"We are a professional team. We have never asked players to specifically tackle the opponent's feet, let alone do it specifically for Manchester United. If we wanted to do this, we would have done it before Manchester United scored a goal."

Reporter: "Then what do you think is the difference between Team Glasgow Rangers and Team Manchester United?"

Walter Smith: "I don't need to elaborate on this. One is the championship team of the most commercially valuable league in the world, and the other is a team in the third-rate Europe league. Why should I talk about this gap?"

Reporter: "Sir Ferguson, what do you think of today's game? Are you satisfied with the process and result of the game?"

Ferguson: "I'm quite satisfied with the result of the game, but I'm not satisfied with the process. I don't want to see any players leave the field with serious injuries."

Reporter: "How do you evaluate these two injuries and illnesses? In your opinion, who is responsible?"

Ferguson: "The first time the tackle injured Zhang Kuang, needless to say, it was a malicious tackle. The referee has already made a penalty. I believe UEFA will be fined in the future.

Fortunately, Zhang's injuries were not serious, which is the best news. As for the second Valencia accident, I don't want to say anything. At least according to the rules, it was not a violation.

However, the reality is that Valencia has caused huge harm, and I want to at least get the apology and compensation it deserves.

At the same time, I also hope that Valencia can recover soon. This is really an unlucky child. He only recovered from the last operation in August. I hope he will have good luck from now on."

The reporter asked him, "Sir, what do you think of Zhang Kuang's performance today?"

Ferguson chewed gum and said slowly, "Three goals and one assist, how else can I watch it? I closed my eyes and watched it, and I was laughing."

The reporters laughed.

"He said he wanted to get the UEFA Champions League Golden Boot. Do you think he can get it?"

"It's only one round now, so it's too early to say this." Ferguson said, "But if he continues to maintain this state, no one knows how far he can achieve."

The media coverage after the game was even more enthusiastic. The most important thing is that there are too many points in this game.

"UEFA Champions League group stage, Manchester United versus Glasgow Rangers, weird bursts"

"Chinese Zhang makes his first appearance in the UEFA Champions League arena. Is he really a man favored by God?"

"I can't bear to look at it, this is not the UEFA Champions League group stage, it's a bloody scene"

"Chinese Zhang shines UEFA Champions League, strange events occur continuously"

"What I Have to Say About the Abnormal Phenomenon of Chinese Zhang"

"Chinese Zhang may be really witchcraft?"

"Overnight, Chinese Zhang's shortcomings were made up, and his flower life was extraordinary to the eyes of others."

"..."

"Watching this group match makes my scalp numb. The first thing that makes me numb is Chinese Zhang's extraordinary performance. Is this still Chinese Zhang? There is no gap between him and Ka Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Really, whether it is speed, physical confrontation, headers, long shots, grabbing points, passing people, assists and passes, he is not even a little worse than Ka Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo."

"Perhaps I really want to believe the truth that Zhang said: He is the man favored by God! Really, I have to believe this. Who can be fine after being tackled twice, but step on the opponent's foot instead?

China Kung Fu? If China Kung Fu is so powerful, Chinese Zhang must not only be able to do it, but in fact only he can do it now.

Without any inside information, who can guess the results of all World Cup games? No one can do it, not even the chairman of World Football Federation.

Who can be with so many women... Well, there is no need to elaborate on this, right? What is this kind of man if not God favored man?"

"But why would God favor a football player? Why not a politician? Not an economist? Not a scientist? Not a soldier? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to favor those people?"

"Yes, why favor a China person? There are so many outstanding men in the West, why don't you favor him? Has God abandoned the West?"

"Ah? No, God don't abandon the West..."

The social media of China even exploded.

"UEFA Champions League scored three goals and one assist in his debut, scored a hat trick, and was exempt from injuries! This is a man like a god. Oh my god, has God finally sent a man to save China football?"

"He? Save China football? Don't be ridiculous. He can get to China national football team first. Let's talk about it. He can't even get into China national football team. How to save it?"

"Okay, don't mention China national football team on such a festive day."

"Zhang Kuang didn't play football today, he played with confidence. He told the world that China players can also score a hat trick in UEFA Champions League!"

"I cried, I really cried. Ever since my grandfather's generation, I have been looking forward to China players scoring goals in UEFA Champions League. Today Zhang Kuang scored three goals."

"Upstairs, your grandfather has been waiting for you since he was nineteen years old?"

"Yes, my grandfather is a football fan, my dad is a football fan, and I am a football fan too. Our three generations have realized their dream today."

"Zhang Kuang, you are China the savior of football!"

"I, a Zhang Kuang fan for twenty years, haven't cried. Why are you crying? Just smile for me."

"Just kidding, what's the point of being so good Zhang Kuang? He's making money all by himself, how will it help China football? He's a selfish guy."

"Yeah, Zhang Kuang is selfish? Why don't you get him over China national football team first? How can he help China football? Can I give you all the money I make?"

"I heard that he returned to China in early September and stingyly donated 1 million to the football school that trained him. Do you know how much money he makes in a year? So stingy."

"How much do you want to donate? How about donating the whole amount?"
