【Shock! Martin has booked the 2018 World Footballer in advance! 】

[Martin’s domineering declaration: I hope everyone will not get visual fatigue from the World Footballer! 】

[The new World Footballer is already the number one player in world football! 】

[Let me tell you a ghost story: The man Mero wants to chase is only 21 years old! 】

……

The world's major mainstream sports media update content on Instagram, Twitter, and Bibo, social platforms with huge user bases.

Fans all over the world are talking about Martin on this day.

Those who like him are full of praise.

There are many people who don't like him, after all, anti-fans are everywhere.

Regardless of whether we are number one in the world, there will always be opposing voices.

Martin was used to it.

When he returned home, he even sent a reply to several negative fans: Sorry, I am the World Footballer.

Afterwards, he took a shower, entered the system, practiced for a while, and went to bed at almost eleven o'clock.

As the new World Footballer of the Year, harsh words have been let out, and he must be responsible for what he said.

The day after tomorrow is the fourth round of the EFL Cup against Norwich City. If you want to perform well, the first thing you need to do is ensure a good sleep.

Only then will you be in good physical condition to participate in training.

When Martin fell asleep, mainstream European media began to flood the screens of major social platforms.

Winners of nine major awards, Wenger hinted at retiring next summer, Martin once again beat Melo to be elected World Footballer...

The next morning, Martin drove to Colney training base early to prepare for the fourth round of the EFL Cup tomorrow night.

Although it is possible that he will not play in the game due to the weak opponent, but as the captain of the team, he must maintain a correct attitude even if he wins a major honor.

The cruel words were already said in the acceptance speech. If you want not to be slapped in the face, you must work hard and try harder.

Sports media, mainly European mainstream media, focused on the FIFA annual awards ceremony that ended last night at the Palais Theater in London.

Martin, the reigning World Footballer of the Year, also became the center of attention.

Although he is the youngest person to be consecutively elected as the World Footballer after Ronaldo, there is still a long way to go before he can set a record of consecutive election.

Messi was elected World Footballer of the Year for four consecutive years from 2009 to 2012.

Although this is the FIFA Ballon d'Or awarded to FIFA and "France Football" for three consecutive years.

In addition, in front of Martin are the five world footballers created by Messi.

In addition to winning four consecutive championships from 2009 to 2012, he was also elected undisputedly in 2015.

But the top priority is Ronaldo's third election.

Only by catching up with Ronaldo first can we have a chance to surpass Messi.

Martin is only 21 years old, so it's entirely possible.

FIFA also stepped up efforts to promote Martin at this time.

As Melo's age reaches 30+, world football is in urgent need of new idol blood.

Martin is handsome and has better football skills than Melo. He is simply the postcard that FIFA covets.

The European Ballon d'Or was founded in 1956. Counting the merged FIFA Ballon d'Or, the two winners of the European Ballon d'Or are Di Stefano, Beckenbauer, Rummenigge, Kevin Keegan and Ronaldo.

The three European Ballon d'Or winners include Cruyff, Platini, Van Basten and Cristiano Ronaldo, with Platini winning it for three consecutive years.

Like the World Footballer of the Year, Martin also has Messi's four consecutive wins, a total of five times.

So Martin knows that there is still a long road ahead and requires meticulous handling.

Major media outlets have also focused on Wenger, who has hinted at retirement next summer.

Arsenal fans feel particularly heavy, especially the older generation of gun fans.

They have watched Wenger coach Arsenal since the 1990s, snatching the league championship three times from Ferguson, who dominated the Premier League, and signing himself into the contract in order to build a new home stadium.

Even if they sell their captain every year, they can remain in the top four of the Premier League and participate in the Champions League, which has the most economic benefits.

Really in the blink of an eye, Wenger has turned sixty-eight.

He stayed in North London for 21 years.

Do your best.

These heavy-hearted Arsenal fans understand Wenger very well. They are all over 68 years old. The honors they deserve at the club level are all obtained at the end of their coaching career, and there is no new pursuit.

Just as Wenger said when he won the Men's Football Coach of the Year award, he had not spent time with his family for a long time.

Football is important, but...family is always the most worthy of giving everything.

……

At 10pm local time on October 25, Arsenal faced Norwich in the fourth round of the EFL Cup at home.

Before the game started, Martin, Cech, Bellerin, Van Dijk, Kante, Xhaka and Cavani showed the home fans the silver trophy symbolizing the Team of the Year that they had received the night before.

Martin also additionally displayed the Puskas Award trophy and the World Footballer trophy.

Of course, head coach Wenger also joined in the fun and showed the silver trophy for the best men's football coach of the year to the home fans.

Arsenal fans in the audience shouted Martin and Wenger the loudest.

Everywhere you look, it's almost all banners, slogans and flags about Martin and Wenger.

The first game after the FIFA annual awards ceremony is again at home.

Even though they mainly used substitutes, they still easily defeated the visiting Norwich City.

3:1

Martin didn't even come off the bench.

Cavani scored twice and Sanchez added the icing on the cake.

Three days later, Arsenal ushered in the 2017th round of the 2018-10 Premier League season at the Emirates Stadium.

New World Footballer Martin and Sanchez both scored twice.

Beat Swansea 4:0.

The most watched match of this round is Manchester United's home game against Tottenham.

After 81 minutes of hard work, Manchester United completed the 1-0 victory with Martial's decisive goal in the st minute.

Manchester City, currently ranked second in the league, did not fall behind and was in very good overall condition. They defeated West Bromwich Albion 2:3 as a guest.

De Bruyne, who joined Manchester City in the summer of 2015, was in excellent form. He had 1 shot and 2 passes, leading Blue Moon to score all three points in the away game.

Therefore, the points gap between Arsenal and Manchester City remains at two points.

In the middle of next week, both teams have Champions League matches.

However, the European mainstream media, mainly British media, has already focused on the peak showdown at the Etihad Stadium next weekend.

Manchester City VS Arsenal!

The two teams are separated by two points.

Arsenal has 30 points and Manchester City has 28 points.

A veritable battle for the top spot.

But before that, both teams have a Champions League fourth round group match.

Arsenal and Manchester City are both going to the Apennine Peninsula. Arsenal is a guest at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, and Manchester City is a guest at the Stadio San Paolo to challenge Naples.

Both teams have won the first three rounds of the group stage and are very likely to advance to the top 16 as the first in the group.

But in order to achieve such a goal, the first thing that needs to be done is to win the fourth round of the group stage as a guest.

Arsenal's away game kicks off at 8:45pm on Tuesday night, and the team takes a flight from London to Rome on Monday morning.

Arriving at the international arrivals gate of the airport, Arsenal fans who came to pick up the plane in advance gave out joyful cheers and cheered for the team.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Wenger took captain Martin to attend the regular pre-match press conference.

The assistant coach took other players to the Stadio Olimpico in Rome for a routine pre-game walk.

The Olympic Stadium in Rome can accommodate up to 2.5 spectators, including standing seats.

It's just that this stadium is not a professional football stadium, but a comprehensive stadium.

The auditorium is separated from the stadium by nine plastic tracks, and the visibility in front of the north and south stands is even worse. There are two oval-shaped venues for throwing shot put.

What's strange is the fanatical atmosphere that Roma fans always create at home games.

It is precisely this that many visiting team players who come to this stadium to play think of it.

If Roma had its own professional stadium, how scary would the atmosphere be?

Unfortunately, due to the special influence of Italy, the possibility of this is very low.

Juventus has spent a lot of energy and price in order to have a professional stadium of their own. …

At 7:30 pm on Tuesday night, more than 60% of the fans filled the Rome Olympic Stadium.

At this time, the starting lineups of both sides of the game were reproduced by major media and seen by paying attention to fans.

Compared with the first round of the third round of group matches at the Emirates Stadium, Roma made three changes to the starting lineup.

The third-generation coach Florenzi replaced Bruno Perez, the second-generation coach De Rossi replaced Gonaron, and 'Little Pharaoh' Shaaraoui replaced Gerson.

Arsenal have made adjustments in two positions.

De Ligt replaced Koscielny, who had a minor injury, and Alves replaced Bellerin.

At 8:45, the game started on time.

"aoaooaoooooo——"

Accompanied by huge cheers that resounded throughout the stadium, Roma, which had the advantage of being at home, played very proactively, obviously hoping to score the first goal through a blitz.

The main area is the young De Ligt.

In the first round of the game at the Stadion Stadium, De Ligt made a mistake and Dzeko intercepted the ball and scored a face-saving goal.

Obviously, the Roma team wants to replicate the success of scoring goals.

De Ligt's initial performance was indeed a bit worrying, but as time went by, he found a feeling with the regular assistance of national team big brother Van Dijk, Kante and captain Martin.

The role of one man in charge is not yet complete, but he can use his strengths and avoid weaknesses very well. The key is that he has just turned eighteen and his future is bright.

After surviving Roma's three blows, Martin gradually devoted his energy to offense.

Alisson's goalkeeping was constantly threatened, and the home fans in the auditorium would occasionally let out waves of frightened exclamations.

Roma head coach Di Francesco stood in the home team coach's technical area with a frown.

His fears soon became reality.

Martin, the new World Footballer of the Year, helped Arsenal open the scoring as a guest in the 29th minute of the game.

He received the ball after Sanchez's breakthrough and passed it continuously. He broke through the veteran De Rossi like a wooden stake. He didn't give Nainggolan a chance to cover up and fired directly.

The kicked football was like a cannonball, and Alisson, who was fully prepared, was still beyond his reach.

Roma, who was lagging behind, had no choice but to strengthen their attack.

The usual scenario is that Arsenal's opponents step up their attack and continue to concede goals.

Roma, who were at home in this campaign, were very lucky. Only three minutes had passed since they conceded the goal. Shalawi's volley from the front of the left penalty area hit Van Dijk's back and was refracted.

Cech had already moved to the right side of his body, and it was too late to react when he saw the refracted football flying to his left.

1:1

Roma was lucky enough to equalize the score, and the Roma fans in the audience suddenly became excited and shouted hysterically. They continued to cheer for the team, hoping that they could continue their efforts and overtake the score.

Before the home fans could wait for the go-ahead goal, they first lost the ball again.

Less than two minutes after Roma equalized the score, Martin passed the ball from the center to the right. Alves, who was advancing at high speed from the right, made a slight adjustment and made a cross.

Cavani, who grabbed the early point, overpowered Facio to complete a high-quality header.

The ball was pushed forward with great power and angle, and goalkeeper Alisson sighed with excitement as he watched the ball.

1:2

The Arsenal fans who traveled with the team were ecstatic, seized the opportunity to release their energy, and shouted loudly at the top of their lungs.

In the remainder of the first half, both sides began to focus on defense, so neither side scored again by the end of the first half.

In the second half, Arsenal changed sides and played again. Arsenal played a relatively low-key game in the away game. They gave the initiative to the home team Roma and concentrated on counterattack.

The home team Roma did not attack blindly. They organized the offense in an orderly manner while ensuring defense.

Di Francesco also thought that the team could safely create an absolute scoring opportunity to equalize the score.

Unexpectedly, ginger is still spicy.

Arsenal gave up the initiative solely for the sake of a quick counterattack from defense to offense.

In the 62nd minute, Florenzi's cross from the right was too powerful, and the football he kicked into the penalty area flew over the heads of Van Dijk and Dzeko. De Ligt defeated Shaarawi and pushed the ball out of the penalty area.

Xhaka and Stroman took off at the same time, but neither one hit the mark.

Kanter's strong ability to predict was fully demonstrated at this time. He gave Martin the cushion of the football that bounced off the ground.

Nainggolan pounced and committed a foul. Martin seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. With his back to the attacking direction, he used the arch of his right foot to cushion the ball to Xhaka, who had not touched the ball before and ran forward to get the ball.

Nainggolan, who was mentally prepared for a foul, quickly turned around and cooperated with Stroman to double-team Xhaka who was receiving the ball.

Unexpectedly, Xhaka also shot the ball and passed the ball behind Nainggolan with the outside of his left foot while running.

Martin!

He completed the turn at the moment Nainggolan turned, from facing his own goal to running forward facing the attacking direction.

The outside instep of his right foot moved the football sent by Xhaka to the front right, just in time to avoid De Rossi's shovel.

"wowowooooooo——"

The instinctive screams of the home team's fans rang out over the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

Because, after Martin passed De Rossi, he was directly facing Roma's entire defense!

Florenzi moved forward and participated in the attack to a large extent, leaving only Facio, Juan Jesus and Kolarov in the defense.

Among them, Kolarov is strong in attack and weak in defense.

In addition to facing the fast-paced Martin, there are also Cavani and Gnabry who are actively participating in the attack.

Neither of them are particularly fast, but... they're not slow either!

Three against three!

"wuwuuwuwuuuuu——"

The Roma fans responded with harsh boos, hoping to use this method to interfere with Martin's high-speed dribbling.

Di Francesco, who was standing in the technical area commanded by the home team coach, was anxious. Looking at the three defensive players retreating at high speed and the players who were left behind, his uneasiness became more and more intense.

As the new World Footballer of the Year, Martin's super personal ability is beyond doubt.

In the blink of an eye, Martin dribbled the ball across the center line.

Looking at the three defensive players getting closer and closer, he keenly captured the three-man defense to guard the center and ribs while giving up the defense on the wings.

Juan Jesus is in the center, with Kolarov and Facio on the left and right.

Gnabry's speed was up to full speed, and Martin sent a diagonal through ball with a large amount of advance.

Kolarov, who was fighting and retreating, had long been prepared, but instead of competing for speed with Gnabry, he turned around and returned to defense at high speed in a straight line.

As long as the inside route is blocked, the defensive task is completed.

Martin's diagonal through ball was just right. Gnabry, who was attacking the right rib, ran at high speed about thirty meters from the baseline and completed a large diagonal low pass without stopping the ball.

Because he took the lead, the pass to Cavani, who was running at full speed along the left rib of the attack, was not offside.

The amount of advance is relatively large, and it happens to be passed to the front of the penalty area on the left.

Goalkeeper Alisson is originally a goalkeeper who is good at attacking, but he knows that Martin has a wide field of vision and will be humiliated if he is ready to attack at any time, so his position in this game is relatively low.

Cavani ran to the edge of the penalty area on the left at high speed and stopped the ball in place. Fazio, who was following the defense, had no time to brake. He could only watch helplessly as the opponent used the outside instep of his right foot to move the ball one step to the right and put it down. The right foot used the arch of the foot to push the ball into the space behind Fazio and Juan Jesus.

At the same time, Martin, who was following at high speed from the middle, suddenly ran diagonally to the left front.

Juan Jesus never expected Martin to run like this.

So much so that I couldn't react at all.

Alisson had to abandon the goal.

Martin, whose speed was not slowing down, chased Cavani at high speed and sent a low ball to the left rib of the penalty area. He overtook easily with two strides.

While running at high speed, support your body with your right foot, and rub the inside of the instep and toes of your left foot toward the middle and lower part of the football rolling forward.

The moment you touch the ball, your toes also have an upward force technique.

In the middle of the attack, Alisson looked at the football rising from the ground and jumped up subconsciously, but his right hand that he quickly extended failed to touch the ball...

Fans watching the live broadcast of the game clearly saw the football passing the fingertips of Alisson's right chasing the far end of the goal net.

"Iconic Arsenal quick counterattack!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei reflexively shouted: "Martin scored his second goal of the game, helping Arsenal expand the score 3:1 as a guest!"

The atmosphere at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome was reduced to a minimum. Arsenal fans who traveled with the team once again seized the opportunity to show their presence and cheer for Martin who scored a wonderful goal.

This goal was also the last goal of the game.

In the end, Arsenal defeated Roma 3:1 as a guest.

The group's four-game winning streak continues to top the list.

Due to Atletico Madrid's explosive home draw with Qarabak, Roma, which lost back-to-back games, ranked second in the group with 4 points. Atletico Madrid, which had three draws and one loss in four games, ranked third, and Qarabak, which had two draws and two losses, was at the bottom with two points.

In addition, Arsenal, which scored 12 points, was 8 points more than second-placed Roma. It qualified early and also secured first place in the group.

In other words, Arsenal can play as a substitute in the last two rounds of the group stage and focus on the league, EFL Cup and the Club World Cup in the United Arab Emirates at the end of the year!

The next day, Manchester City also won a victory at the San Paolo Stadium, defeating the home team Napoli 4:2.
