Chapter 858 What Should a Five-Goal Game Be Called? (Fourth Update Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
Let's not talk about Balotelli's big fight with Richards in the locker room for now. That's their own business, Manchester City's internal affairs. In the spirit of non-interference in internal affairs, we shouldn't interfere. Let them fight it out.
Let's get back to the game.
After Chen Hero scored four goals, he greatly shocked Manchester City's players and fans.
The boos and curses that had been ringing for more than sixty minutes were much smaller after that—many Manchester City fans were frightened by this ferocious Chen Hero.
Some people had better memories and finally remembered that when they faced Liverpool at home last season, they booed Chen Hero and provoked him from the stands, and as a result, Chen Hero scored four goals… Could it be that their hatred for Chen Hero is really Chen Hero's motivation?
Many Manchester City fans were unwilling to admit it, but they had to admit it deep down.
The following game completely became garbage time.
But not for Chen Hero. He had only scored four goals, and he was still one goal short of five.
Even if there was no trip back to China, he wouldn't be satisfied. Because he scored four goals last season, so scoring four goals this time was nothing great. He wanted to score five!
※※※
Aguero was unwilling to be Chen Hero's supporting role and was also working hard to pursue goals.
Unfortunately, Manchester City had been frightened by Chen Hero's four goals, and most of the Manchester City players couldn't muster the energy to play. No matter how good Aguero was, it was impossible for him to defeat Liverpool's entire defense, because Liverpool's players were in high spirits and their combat effectiveness was completely off the charts.
On the other hand, Chen Hero was still able to get the support of his teammates.
Suarez used his personal skills to break into the penalty area, and then passed the ball to Chen Hero. Chen Hero followed up with a shot, but it was blocked by Joe Hart.
Soon Liverpool came back again. This time, Adam Johnson crossed from the wing. Chen Hero had a whimsical idea at the near post and shot with his heel, but the football went directly into the side netting.
Aguero was really envious and jealous seeing Chen Hero having so many people helping him.
Why do I lack such selfless teammates around me!
※※※
With the full support of his teammates, Chen Hero's fifth goal came very smoothly.
In the seventy-seventh minute, Liverpool launched an offensive. Chen Hero and Gerrard played a two-on-one cooperation in front of the penalty area. Gerrard feinted to take a long shot, but suddenly made a straight pass, passing the football through the gap between Kompany and Lescott.
Chen Hero happened to pass through Manchester City's defense at this time.
Although Kompany tried to stop Chen Hero, he was knocked over by Chen Hero… The referee didn't blow the whistle because Kompany had blocked first, but he didn't succeed. Chen Hero's collision was reasonable!
Chen Hero, who had knocked Kompany away, received Gerrard's pass, and then shot cleanly, sending the football into Joe Hart's goal.
When Joe Hart faced Chen Hero, he saw him swing his foot and made a save in advance. As a result, Chen Hero had a slight change in rhythm. It was just this little time difference that allowed the football to avoid Joe Hart's save and fly into the goal.
Joe Hart lay on the ground, unable to get up again. He no longer had the strength to do so. The powerlessness brought about by the pressure in his heart was far greater than the real exhaustion of physical strength.
As the most promising local goalkeeper in English football, he had never been so embarrassed as today. He conceded five goals in one game!
If this had happened when he was younger, he might have lost all confidence…
Now, the result of this game will not affect his future, but it is still a stain.
※※※
Seeing the football fly into the goal, Chen Hero, who finally completed the five-goal task, didn't rush into the goal to pick up the football again. Now that the task was completed, he didn't care anymore.
He also didn't turn around and run wildly to celebrate the goal.
He just stood in place, slowly raised his arms, and looked around, in a posture of looking down on the heroes of the world.
If he had a Qinglong Yanyue Dao (Crescent Blade) in his hand and a long beard on his face, he would be just like Guan Yu!
No need for intense celebration actions, no need to show his strength again, these five goals are enough to prove to the world that he, Chen Hero, is brave and invincible!
In the Premier League, I am the best shooter!
His teammates rushed up and hugged him, cheering loudly. They were sure to win this game!
※※※
"Goal! Goal! The fifth goal! God! I can't believe it! Incredible! Unbelievable! Hero has actually done it! He scored five goals in this one game!"
"We call scoring two goals in a game a 'brace', we call scoring three goals in a game a 'hat-trick', we call scoring four goals in a game a 'big four', but what should we call scoring five goals in a game?"
"Hero is too amazing! Manchester City lost to him alone in this game! It's not that Manchester City performed poorly, but that Hero's performance was too perfect!"
"Hero is simply Superman! This is his fifth goal in this game, and also his twenty-sixth goal this season! The league is only halfway through, and he has scored twenty-six goals. If he continues to score at this rate, will he score fifty-two goals this season?!"
Although the commentators had been stimulated by Chen Hero too many times, the stimulation this game gave them was particularly profound.
At first, scoring the first goal in nine minutes was not too surprising, after all, Chen Hero has such ability.
Then scoring a brace, completing a hat-trick in the first half, everyone thought Chen Hero was too amazing, but he probably wouldn't have so much energy in the second half, right?
Who would have thought they were wrong? The fourth goal came, and everyone thought of the last time Liverpool played at the Etihad Stadium in the league. Many people thought that a big four could satisfy Chen Hero.
Unexpectedly, Chen Hero scored a fifth goal in the blink of an eye!
Now everyone just praised and praised, and had no other thoughts. They even felt that Chen Hero could hear their inner voices—they thought in their hearts, "Enough, Hero?", and as a result, Hero scored another goal, indicating "Not enough, not enough"…
It's not a good feeling to be slapped in the face all the time, so now they just don't think about whether it's really enough, and only cheer for Chen Hero wholeheartedly.
※※※
Watching Chen Hero complete the feat of scoring five goals, the people around Martin O'Neill rushed out and raised their arms and cheered, but he himself sat on the coach's bench, motionless.
This result should have been expected long ago… Chen Hero doesn't seem to fail at anything he wants to do. The key is whether he wants to do it or not.
A bet plus the hatred with Manchester City, intertwined, formed such a result.
He didn't want to let Chen Hero go, because the next game at home against Newcastle was also a tough battle. Newcastle is performing very well under Pardew and has regained the demeanor of a strong team.
But now, looking at Chen Hero's performance, it's unreasonable for him not to let Chen Hero go.
Forget it, let him go back, as long as he can get back in time to participate in the next round of the game…
Thinking of this, Martin O'Neill stood up and applauded Chen Hero's five goals.
※※※
When Chen Hero scored the fifth goal, Chen Hero's father, Chen Tao, slapped his thigh.
His son really did it, which means he will come back to celebrate his birthday?
Although he advised his son not to come back, saying that flying back and forth was too tiring, he was always looking forward to it in his heart. Which father doesn't want his son to come back gloriously to celebrate his birthday? It's a matter of pride!
His wife clapped her hands and cheered next to him: "Great, great! Hero can come back!"
Mothers want their sons to come home even more.
Even if he only stays at home for one day, it's fine.
"Hero has completed the feat of scoring five goals in a single game! He defeated Manchester City alone, which is really amazing! You must know that his opponent is not some weak team of nobodies, his opponent is Manchester City! It is a strong team ranked second in the league, with a gathering of stars, and Chen Hero defeated them all alone!" The commentator was saying how awesome Chen Hero's goal was.
Chen Tao didn't care at all. He only knew that his son was really coming back.
What Chen Tao cared about was that his son's awesome performance was so that he could go home to celebrate his birthday, and he had a sense of pride—my status as a father is still very important in my son's mind!

Chen Hero has scored five goals, so what's the point of playing this game?
When Chen Hero and his teammates were celebrating the goal, Manchester City fans were greeting Chen Hero with boos and all kinds of curses from the stands.
But this cannot change their fate as losers.
In this game, Chen Hero never competed with the fans as much as before, but every goal he scored was like slapping Manchester City fans in the face, making Manchester City fans especially unhappy.
If they could, they really wanted to kill Chen Hero, instead of being in the stands like now, with a belly full of fire that they couldn't vent. Even the most vicious words could not vent one-tenth of their anger.
Some other Manchester City fans suddenly felt that this game was extremely boring, so they began to leave early.
It would be traffic if they left later, and at this time, realistic considerations outweighed the spirit of fighting side by side with Manchester City to the end. Anyway, Manchester City is doomed to lose, so what's the point of watching this game? It's better to go home early, wash up and sleep.
※※※
Those Manchester City fans who left early were right, the following game was really nothing to see.
After Chen Hero scored the fifth goal and completed the bet, Martin O'Neill replaced him, considering that he had to fly back to China, and it was really not worth wasting too much energy and physical strength in this meaningless game.
When Chen Hero came off the field, he was booed and cursed by Manchester City fans again. He didn't feel ashamed but proud. He put his hands on his ears and pretended to listen, and then waved to signal Manchester City fans to shout louder. This was his way of responding to hostile fans, but this time it didn't work.
It's not that Manchester City fans don't hate him anymore, but because… Chen Hero is the absolute protagonist of this game, so Manchester City fans have almost never stopped booing or cursing in this game. Now that the game has been going on for eighty minutes, their throats have long been hoarse, and it's useless to drink more water or eat more throat lozenges.
If they want to shout louder, they are willing but unable. There is no way. Some people even forcibly increased the volume, and as a result, their throats were completely torn and ruined. Now it's good, they can't even speak!
Chen Hero's trick is really poisonous. At that time, I don't know how many Manchester City fans lost their voices, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to speak in the next few days.
After bullying Manchester City fans, Chen Hero returned to the bench and first shook hands with Martin O'Neill.
O'Neill said in his ear: "I admire you, Hero. You can go back to China, but I hope you can get back as soon as possible. You must know that I must win the game against Newcastle at home!"
Chen Hero gave him a thumbs up: "No problem, boss! I will definitely come back and guarantee to take care of Newcastle!"
"Go and celebrate with your teammates." O'Neill patted him on the back and sent him out.
Chen Hero, like a triumphant hero, celebrated with everyone by high-fiving.
And those Manchester City fans, watching their mortal enemy celebrate their victory so arrogantly on their own territory, gritted their teeth with hatred, but couldn't make a sound.
The boos and curses even tended to get smaller and smaller… Everyone was anxious, but helpless.
It's really worrying them to death!
