Chapter 370: Good news
After three consecutive rounds of league battles, the Galaxy battleship rushed to Greece without stopping, as there was a midweek Champions League group stage match, where they would challenge Olympiacos.
Robben and Heinze, who were injured, naturally couldn't travel. Besides them, so other players were also physically fatigued. Head coach Schuster decided to leave so key players behind to rest while calling up so players from the youth team.
Originally, Wang Feng was also in the rotation plan, but he felt good about himself. The club conducted a comprehensive physical examination on him, and the results showed that he was very healthy. In order to ensure victory and advance to the next stage, the Chinese superstar refused to take a vacation.
However, he soon regretted it. When the group arrived in Athens, Wang Feng received a call from his sister: "Brother, Yao Yao is pregnant, just found out!"
He stood still, holding the phone, feeling a surge of imnse joy. Along with it ca a hint of anxiety. He was going to be a father. Could he be a qualified father?
Wang Feng wanted to fly back to Madrid imdiately to be with Lu Yao, but the gentle voice on the other end of the line stopped him: "You've already arrived in Athens, there's no need to co back specially."
"Besides, everything is normal with . It's more convenient to do routine check-ups with Tian Tian by my side. Even if you co back, there's nothing special to do. Just focus on the ga. Tian Tian and I will cheer for you in front of the TV!" Lu Yao said.
"Okay, then make sure you both watch. I will dedicate a wonderful ga to you." The two chatted for a long ti before hanging up, and Wang Feng always had a smile on his face.
Seeing him finish the call and still smiling like a flower, Raúl couldn't help but ask curiously, "Wang, you look extrely happy. Did sothing good happen?"
"I'm going to be a father!" the Chinese superstar said. "Oh my God, congratulations! Is this your first ti?" Raúl showed a knowing expression and then said with nostalgia, "It's an unparalleled feeling. When I first found out I was going to be a father, that feeling was unforgettable."
The news quickly spread within the team, and everyone congratulated Wang Feng. Head coach Schuster said, "Do you want to give you a break? You can go back to Madrid right away."
The Chinese superstar was very grateful for the coach's concern, shaking his head and saying, "No need. I'll play normally in this ga. But I'd like to ask for leave in the next league match." The next match against Mallorca was also an away ga, and the ti interval was very short. They needed to depart imdiately after playing in the Champions League.
Schuster readily agreed to his request. Wang Feng had a very high attendance rate at Real Madrid, and he was extrely serious in training. He didn't have any arrogance or bad habits typical of superstars. He could be said to be a role model for all other players.
At 8 p.m. local ti on November 7th, the Karaiskakis Stadium, which can accommodate 33,000 people, was brightly lit. As a veteran powerhouse in Greece, although it was difficult for the ho team to advance from the Champions League group stage, there were still many fans at the scene to support them.
At the sa ti, Real Madrid fans organized an expedition to cheer for the team in Greece, with about 2,000 people. They looked very relaxed, and many of them were discussing where to celebrate after the team advanced.
Head coach Schuster deployed a half-reserve lineup in a 4-5-1 formation: goalkeeper Dudek, defenders Salgado, Cannavaro, Drenthe, and Marcelo; midfielders Gago, Reyes, Balboa, Guti, and Sneijder; with Wang Feng as the lone striker.
After the match started, whether it was the players on the field or the spectators in the stands, they could all feel Wang Feng's excitent. His tireless pressing and chasing made Olympiacos very passive for a while.
"Wang doesn't seem to be affected by Real Madrid's consecutive gas at all. He's still so actively pressing and creating pressure for the ho team. Sotis I can't help but wonder, where is the limit of his physical fitness?"
"Oh, look at this attack. Olympiacos lost the ball in midfield under Wang's pressure, and he's now dribbling forward and shooting! Goooooooooooooooal! It's a goal! Oh my God, it's a goal!"
"A shot from nearly forty ters outside the penalty area, no run-up at all. He lifts his right leg and shoots, the ball spinning in the air, straight into the top right corner of the goal. The ho team goalkeeper didn't even react!"
"This explosiveness is probably unmatched in the entire football world. I believe no other player can reproduce such a powerful long-range shot!"
Even Wang Feng didn't expect the ball to go in. At that mont, he just felt an infinite amount of energy in his body, unable to hold it in, so he concentrated all his strength in his right foot and struck the ball fiercely.
He excitedly ran to the goal to pick up the ball, then turned and ran towards the stands, stuffing the ball into his jersey to mimic a pregnant woman, while kissing his wedding ring.
Everyone understood what he ant. He was dedicating this goal to his wife and unborn child. "We can see that Wang's celebration is very special. He's announcing to the world that he and his wife are expecting a baby."
"It's truly delightful news. Let's congratulate this world superstar again. He just turned 24 this year and already has his first child!"
This goal greatly relieved Wang Feng's mood. He didn't continue to press aggressively afterward, and the pace of the ga gradually slowed down, with Olympiacos also starting to pose so threats.
Although the reserve lineup couldn't control the ga, Wang Feng's presence represented the sharpest attack. The ho team needed to allocate a lot of attention to defending him, and even then, they couldn't necessarily stop him.
In the 33rd minute, Real Madrid intercepted Olympiacos' attack in the backcourt. Drenthe imdiately sent a long pass over the top, and the ball landed directly behind the ho team's defensive line.
Wang Feng, sandwiched between two defenders, still rushed to the ball's landing point, with one defender almost trying to hug his waist but failing to stop him, and instead falling over.
As the ball fell, the Chinese superstar imdiately jumped forward and headed it, then chased after the ball again. He quickly shook off the defense and found himself in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper.
The ho team goalkeeper chose to rush out, but Wang Feng flicked the ball over his head with the tip of his foot, and the ball flew into the net behind him. 2-0!
After scoring, Wang Feng kissed his ring again and began to run around the field celebrating. Raúl caught up with him and patted his shoulder, saying, "You kid even copied my celebration. Oh well, who made us both have happy families."
Everyone burst into laughter. They were clearly a group of handso players, yet inexplicably devoted, unlike a certain forr Brazilian superstar from the neighborhood, who was ugly-cute and fickle.
Before the end of the first half, the Galaxy battleship struck again. This ti it was Reyes who intercepted the ball in midfield and dribbled towards the right flank. Wang Feng and he raced together, forming a two-on-three attack.
They cooperated to shake off the defense near the edge of the penalty area. Reyes entered the penalty area and shot with his right foot. The Olympiacos goalkeeper made a desperate save to block the ball outside the goal line, but unfortunately, the shot was too powerful, causing the ball to slip from his grasp.
Wang Feng followed up with an easy shot to score again, completing a hat-trick! Real Madrid led 3-0 away, almost securing victory!
Reyes was a bit frustrated and scratched his head. Why was the goalkeeper so brave, causing him to miss a great chance to score? But he quickly adjusted his mindset and hugged Wang Feng to celebrate the goal together.
