Chapter 390: Night meeting with Savannah, fierce Premier League win half-time championship with one point advantage

Zayed Sports City.

Almost all the auditorium was occupied by red, and the deafening cheers, unified team anthem, and fan songs surrounded the entire stadium and lasted for a long time.

"aoaoaooaoooooo——"

The most enthusiastic moment in the atmosphere was when captain Martin received the championship handed over by FIFA President Infantino and raised the championship trophy symbolizing the Club World Cup under the watchful eyes of Arsenal fans and neutral fans.

"This night is destined to be another sleepless night for Arsenal fans. After winning seven crowns for two consecutive years, what kind of achievements can be invincible?"

Central 5 commentator He Wei said loudly: "At the club level, Martin is already a Grand Slam player. Next year is the World Cup year. I think... Martin, who has got his Portuguese passport back, will definitely shine in the World Cup among the fighting countries. According to his natural talent To win the championship, as long as Portugal as a whole is not too sloppy and seizes the opportunities created by Martin, it will not be difficult to win all seven games."

"really."

Guest commentator Xu Yang changed the subject: "At this time, you should have something to vent about, right? Everyone knows that according to the normal development process, we have a high probability of appearing in the World Cup of the Fighting Nations! You know Lippi+ The overall combination of Martin + Wei Shaohao, I dare not say that it is second-rate in the world, and it can probably compete with the overlord Sakura Country in Asia!"

When the Dragon Kingdom fans watching the live game heard this, they immediately realized that they should do something.

As a result, those Dragon Country fans who knew hacking techniques began to export bad temper to the majority of domestic fans.

Martin, who was far away in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, celebrated the newly won Club World Cup with his teammates.

Another seven-time champion of the year.

What an honor!

Arsenal and Martin once again made the front pages of major sports media and attracted worldwide attention.

But for Arsenal, winning seven crowns for two consecutive years does not mean the end.

In front of them, there are still many honors that can continue to compete.

The morning after winning the Club World Cup, the Arsenal team took a special flight from Abu Dhabi to London to prepare for the EFL Cup quarter-finals and face West Ham United at home.

The league was originally seven points ahead of Manchester City, but due to Manchester City's big wins over Swansea and Tottenham during the Club World Cup, the difference was narrowed to one point.

Fortunately, not many of the main players in the Club World Cup are at great expense. Whether it is the EFL Cup or the league, there is no need to retain strength.

Arriving at London Heathrow International Airport, at the international arrival gate, a large number of die-hard Arsenal fans who were unable to go to Abu Dhabi were waiting early, as well as a large number of media reporters who were fighting with each other.

Various welcoming banners, slogans and Seven Crowns can be seen everywhere.

The unified slogan and the melodious team song became a beautiful scenery at Heathrow International Airport on this day.

Passengers arriving or preparing to travel couldn't help but take out their mobile phones to record the scene, and then posted it on social platforms to share it with netizens.

Considering that the stay would bring uncertainties to the airport operations, all the Arsenal players, just like when they returned triumphantly in the past, waved to the fans, went to the parking area through the VIP channel, and took the bus waiting in advance to return to Colney for training. At the base, the players drove home in their respective cars, each looking for their wives.

Back at the mansion in London, it was past seven o'clock in the evening, and Martin's adoptive mother Clara Anna was not at home.

According to her, it is better to do something meaningful instead of leaving time for boring time.

Martin was not short of money and directly transferred 10 million euros to his adoptive mother.

Looking at the empty mansion, he finally realized the importance of having a woman at home.

"It's time to find a girlfriend."

Martin held his chin with his hand, thinking.

Just then, his cell phone rang.

The prompt bar showed a WhatsApp message from Savannah Blade.

He scanned his face to enter the mobile phone page, and the message he saw was:

[Brother Martin, I just found out that you have returned to London after seeing Hot Topics. I want to eat Dragon Country food tomorrow night. Do you have time to go with me? 】

"Tomorrow night?"

While Martin was hesitating, the other party sent two more messages.

[Don’t forget, you promised Aunt Clara in person that you would accompany me to adapt to the fast pace of life in London when you have time (cute/JPG)]

[You shouldn’t be training at night, right? 】

"This little brat..."

Martin couldn't help but think of the underage girl two years ago who had not yet developed much, but now she seemed to have grown into a slim supermodel.

So, he simply replied: Wait for my notification.

Savannah Blade laughed when she received Martin's reply in an apartment in London.

She knew that such a reply was tantamount to consent.

The next day, the Arsenal team resumed training and fully prepared for the EFL Cup quarter-finals.

The opponent is West Ham United, which has not performed well in the Premier League this season.

After 18 rounds of the league, West Ham ranked 15th, only two points ahead of the relegation zone.

However, Wenger's team has never underestimated its opponents, even if there are media reports that West Ham United may rotate key players in the EFL Cup in exchange for the main players to regain sufficient physical fitness to prepare for the fast-paced game after Christmas.

But the EFL Cup has reached the quarter-finals, and the next step is the semi-finals. No one will give up easily.

In addition, after playing in the English League Cup, we will face the challenge of Liverpool at home.

I believe that West Ham will definitely have some ideas and believe that Arsenal will definitely let the main players have a good rest.

Although the two matches of the Club World Cup are not very intense, the fatigue caused by traveling and traveling is not small.

……

After Martin finished the day's training, he still practiced for a period of time according to his past habits to maintain a good competitive condition.

It wasn't until six o'clock in the evening that I returned to the locker room to wash up and leave the Kearney training base. There were dozens of fans waiting on the roads on both sides of the entrance as usual.

Many reporters and fans have said this on social platforms: If you want Martin's autograph or photo, you don't need to go so early. Even if you leave in the evening, it is best after get off work. As long as you are at the entrance of the training base, you can definitely wait for what you want. idol.

This is not...

Except for a few fans who just arrived after being advised, most of them still waited early.

After all, it’s better to meet the stars sooner rather than later.

Come early and take photos with other Arsenal stars...

Get more in one fell swoop.

Nearly half an hour after taking photos with the last fan and waving goodbye, Martin also heard protests from the Five Zang Temple.

She had just closed the window and was about to start the Aston Martin when she heard a knock on the window. When she pressed the button to lower the window, she saw a face as beautiful as an angel. She stuck out her tongue naughtily: "Can you sign it for me?"

"Where is the sign?"

Martin looked at Savannah Brad with a half-smile, who actually came to 'block the door'.

Two years passed in a blink of an eye, and the little girl back then seemed to have grown into a big girl.

He wears a black down jacket, a plaid scarf around his neck, his light brown slightly curly long hair is tied back, and his ponytail flicks on the left side of his face. His fair skin and delicate facial features that are lightly powdered are like special effects. Same.

Of course, as the current recognized number one star in world football, he has seen too many beauties without any gaffes.

"Sign here."

Savannah Brad stretched out her fair and smooth left hand, and actually took out a marker and handed it over as she spoke.

"Naughty, get in the car."

Martin didn't care about the reporters standing at the intersection openly. He smiled and loosened his seat belt, moved his upper body to the passenger side, and opened the door from the inside.

Anyway, the whole world knows that his adoptive mother Clara Anna and Savannah Blade's mother are close friends. In the past, some media reporters deliberately 'tied' Savannah Blade and Martin together, but it is accepted that Martin interviewed by the media said that he regarded Savannah Blade as a younger sister.

"it is good."

Savannah Blade didn't show any pretense, she walked around from the front to the other side of the car and entered the car from the passenger side.

"Bye guys, Merry Christmas in advance."

Before driving the car, Martin did not forget to wave goodbye to the reporters who pressed the shutter button.

After all, winter in London is too cold.

They are all workers.

In addition, he has sharp eyes and can recognize that the reporters who often squat at the entrance of the Kearney training base are friendly and not at all the unscrupulous media reporters of "The Sun".

Although these reporters can often feel Martin's greetings, they still inevitably feel excited and excited.

Mother! Martin told me Merry Christmas in advance! !

"I know there's a Dragon Country restaurant that's delicious, but a little spicy."

Savannah Blade took the initiative after the Aston Martin started.

"Are you talking about the London Jinli in Chinatown, or the Jincheng alley near the British Museum?"

Martin said casually while looking at the traffic: "But judging from your life and work trajectory, it should be London Jinli in Chinatown, right?"

There are many Chinese restaurants in London, but not many of them taste good. It just so happens that the Chinese restaurants with high ratings from netizens are all here.

Because Martin goes to try these Chinese restaurants from time to time when he doesn't want to cook, they have gradually become London's new check-in places, especially among foreign netizens who yearn for Chinese food. "How did you know?"

Savannah Brad said in surprise.

"I've been here since the summer of 2015."

Martin smiled and said: "Do you think I'm familiar with this place? And... I don't follow much on Instagram. Every time I open it, it's the place where you check in, so it's not difficult to guess."

"Yeah~"

It took Aston Martin about half an hour to drive to the London Jinli store in Chinatown while walking around the slightly congested city, chatting about daily life.

He threw the key to the parking staff and said to the boss in a familiar manner: "Boss Li, give me a private room."

"I'll go, UM star!"

The boss sitting at the cashier looked up and saw the big star Martin coming, and hurriedly greeted him: "What kind of wind brings you to me?"

"Then I'll go?"

Martin joked.

"Don't~"

Boss Li greeted Martin warmly: "I mean you usually come here occasionally to have a taste when the team is on holiday, but I saw Arsenal's official Instagram saying that you just resumed training today and have to prepare for the EFL Cup the day after tomorrow. "

"My mother's best friend's daughter works in London and wants to eat some Chinese food, so I brought her here to try it."

Martin said, pointing to the elegant Savannah Brad behind him: "You paid attention to my scarf, you should know that, right?"

"I know."

The man called Boss Li looked over and suddenly slapped his forehead as if he remembered something. He pointed at Savannah Brad and said, "Look at my memory. If I remember correctly, she came to my place to eat a few days ago. Pass."

The two communicated in dragon language, and Savannah Blade was confused.

Martin explained casually: "The boss said you are very beautiful and will give you a 50% discount next time."

Boss Li was still very good at doing business. He waved his hand and said: "Sister of the polo king, 50% off is a discount to me, just take the order directly."

This was said in pure London English. Savannah Brad heard it very clearly. And through the communication between Martin and the boss, she could probably feel that the relationship was not bad, so she said calmly and generously: "Then I won't You're welcome."

"necessary."

His store is becoming more and more popular because Martin checked in on Instagram once.

I vaguely remember that the media reported that the price of Martin’s Instagram post was as high as 60 euros, but people still sent it voluntarily and gave him a five-star review.

London Jinli tastes very authentic, spicy and spicy, which makes people appetite.

Chinese food is indeed not suitable for athletes, as it is heavy on oil and spicy, but it doesn’t matter if it is delayed occasionally.

After eating and drinking, Savannah Brad kept sighing: "It's too spicy."

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but pick up Wang Duobao on the table and drink it all in one gulp.

"It's better to drink some pure milk to relieve the spicy taste."

Martin handed over the pure milk that the boss had prepared in advance.

"Thank you."

After Savannah Brad drank the pure milk, she felt that it was no longer so spicy: "Brother Martin, you know so much."

“Life Hacks.”

As Martin spoke, he transferred the money to the boss's Alipay according to the menu prices.

There is no way, WeChat people won’t accept it, and they don’t want cash either.

(To pave the way for the protagonist’s life, otherwise there won’t be a heroine until the finale, but I won’t write too much. I’ll be done with the World Cup. Don’t panic, Messi fans. The protagonist’s adoptive mother is Argentinian, and she also wants to see her own. The country has won the World Cup, so in my opinion it will not participate in the 2022 World Cup... Director Mu’s fans should wait until 26 years~)

※※※※※

Martin parked the car in the parking lot below the apartment building. He saw Savannah Blade sitting in the passenger seat who seemed to have something to say: "Do you have something to say to me?"

"No, no, I just wanted to tell you that I had a great time tonight."

Savannah Brad pressed the button to release her seat belt and shrugged.

"Me too."

Martin smiled and said: "I just hope you don't complain to my mother, haha~"

"Don't worry, I won't."

"I know, I'm just teasing you."

Martin looked at the time on the multimedia display: "By the way, it's a bit late. Go up and rest early."

"Hmm~"

Savannah Brad opened the car door and stepped out with two long legs one after another. Just when she was about to close the car door, she stopped her strength and said to Martin, who was driving the car, "Why don't you get in and take a seat?"

I regretted it as soon as I finished speaking, but the words had already been spoken, and the eyes that had been a little regretful before turned into anticipation.

"Definitely next time."

Almost reflexively, Martin shook his head.

"Bad brother."

Savannah Brad's expectant eyes were instantly replaced by resentment. Then she thought of something and said with concern: "Be careful when driving at night."

"OK."

Although Martin felt a little regretful in his heart, he remained calm on the outside. He smiled and said, "Good night. When you get home, send me a text message to say you're safe."

"I know, you bad brother, you are the same, huh~"

Looking at the back of Savannah Brad as she walked towards the elevator, Martin seemed to be comforting himself: "You can't be impulsive when it comes to feelings."

……

At 12pm local time in London on December 20th, Arsenal faced the challenge of West Ham United at home.

The season when Martin first came to Arsenal, the team still had a strong sense of robbing the rich and giving to the poor, but now things have changed and they are already on the edge of the relegation zone.

However, when visiting the Emirates Stadium, they did not use substitute players and played with all the main players.

Before the start of the EFL Cup quarter-finals, Arsenal first displayed their newly won Club World Cup championship in front of their home fans.

In the fanatical home atmosphere, Arsenal, which had a large number of main lineups, quickly took the initiative and turned the score into 3:0 at the end of the first half, which was regarded as killing the suspense of the game in advance.

In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again. West Ham United made continuous adjustments and removed the main force.

Obviously, when realizing that there is no hope of promotion, the goal is to minimize losses and prepare to stay away from the relegation zone.

The scoreboard showed 3:0 and did not change until the end of the game.

At the same time, another English League Cup quarter-final battle took place for 1 minutes. Leicester City and Manchester City tied 4:1, and no goal was scored in the 1 minutes of overtime.

In the end, Manchester City eliminated Leicester City with a more stable 4:3 penalty kick performance.

The next night, the other two English League Cup quarter-finals ended one after another.

Chelsea 2:1 Bournemouth.

Manchester United suffered a huge upset as a guest. They lost 1:2 to Bristol City, a mid-table team in the British Championship.

The four teams that advance to the semi-finals are determined, and the semi-final draw will be held at noon the next day.

The big gift of Bristol City was drawn by Manchester City, who have been lucky this season.

Arsenal and Chelsea are automatically paired.

However, no one has any extra thoughts on the EFL Cup semi-finals. For them...the next step is a devilish Christmas schedule.

Three games a week is the norm.

One of the most eye-catching contests is Arsenal's challenge against Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium.

The two teams met in the third round of this season. At that time, Arsenal relied on captain Martin's outstanding performance to defeat Liverpool 3:0 in the away game.

The two sides met again at the Emirates Stadium after half a season, which naturally attracted the attention of the world.

Especially now that Arsenal is at its peak and has received a lot of attention, and Liverpool's overall performance is getting better and better after Klopp's training. Even in away games, many Liverpool fans and the media who support Liverpool think that they have a chance to win. force.

It just turned out to be a slap in the face.

4:1

Martin, who scored twice in the first round, once again showed his prowess at home, with 1 shot and 2 passes, leading Arsenal to an easy victory over Liverpool, who were in high morale, and secured the half-time league championship.

Another league game later was not an upset. Manchester City defeated Bournemouth 4-0 at home, and the point difference between the two teams remained unchanged.

Before the devilish schedule came, Arsenal, who had two games less to play, was only one point ahead of second place Manchester City, which also made the Premier League more eye-catching.

Arsenal's league opponents are consecutive visits to Crystal Palace and West Bromwich Albion, as well as a home game against Chelsea.

Manchester City's schedule also includes two consecutive visits to Newcastle and Crystal Palace, and finally a home game against Watford.
