Chapter 154: Fate

In this warm-up match, the Donetsk miners finally defeated Fenerbahce 3-0.

Xu Qi had already got off the court in the second half, and the team replaced many other players with opportunities to take the field to inspect.

The team's third goal also came from the second half. Fernandinho made a set ball, and then Serner scored twice.

Xu Qi on the sidelines also gave applause to his teammates. Serner is indeed amazing. Xu Qi can perform like this on the right thanks to Serner's support.

"He is indeed an amazing player, and an excellent captain."

Since it was a warm-up match, the two sides did not have such a tense atmosphere. Off the court, Xu Qi even chatted with Robert Carlos, who was also replaced.

Carlos' English is also quite good, so Xu Qi can still talk to him.

Carlos on the sidelines also recalled the match between Brazil and China during the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup.

Carlos said he still remembers that he scored a wonderful free kick to show his courage back then.

He also said that if he was at his peak, if Xu Qi dared to surpass his car, he would definitely surpass Xu Qi, so that Xu Qi would know the consequences of surpassing his car. Unfortunately, he is no longer at the peak now.

Xu Qi just smiled and said nothing more. Obviously, Carlos was very concerned about the incident of being overtaken by Xu Qi.

After the warm-up match with Fenerbahce, the Donetsk miners will continue to find their warm-up opponents.

The team needs to maintain good game shape.

Coincidentally, Shandong Luneng has already started preparing for the new season at this time, and their first stop in Europe's training was actually Istanbul, Türkiye.

Xu Qi didn't actually know about this before. It was just that after the warm-up friendly match with Luneng team was finalized, Xu Qi realized that he had not played a formal game after arriving at his new club, and he had to face his old club first.

A friendly match seems not critical, but there are always some stories when facing an old club.

"It's really fate." Xu Qi smiled strangely. Such things were still a bit contradictory to him.

The feeling of my former teammates and brothers standing opposite each other suddenly is really hard to express in words.

Inside a football training base in Istanbul.

The Donetsk Miners Club in Ukraine and the Shandong Luneng Football Club in China are preparing to have a warm-up match.

Seeing his former teammates, Xu Qi quickly went over to say hello to them, and walked to Tuba and hugged him.

Tuba and Lucescu also hugged each other, and Tuba also cared about Xu Qi's recent situation.

"He is great, his progress speed is beyond my imagination. Although it is difficult for him to become the main player of the team now, he can already become an important rotation player of the team. I can't long before he can become the main player of the team." Lucescu had a high opinion of Xu Qi.

When Tuba nodded proudly when he heard Lucescu's comment on Xu Qi.

Xu Qi is a Chinese star he discovered, so he naturally wants to see Xu Qi perform very well.

"Xu, is that team your old club?" Serner asked curiously.

Serner's English skills are very good, so Xu Qi will naturally communicate with Serner more often.

For Brazilian players such as William and Fernandinho, Xu Qi is really hard to communicate with them. Fortunately, they know more or less English, and even if they have to work hard, they can communicate.

In short, English is still the most common way of communication internationally, and Xu Qi is very glad that he conducted English training.

This made him not so isolated here.

In fact, when Chinese players are in Europe, language has always been one of the biggest obstacles. If a player cannot communicate with his teammates in a more smooth manner and get along with each other, and his technical advantages are not obvious, it will be difficult for him to get opportunities in the club.

Unless his level is much higher than his teammates, he can ensure the position of the main force.

Relatively speaking, Japanese and Korean players have better English skills, so their players are more likely to succeed in Europe.

Although ability is the key and English is not the most important reason, it has to be said that this factor is also very critical.

Hearing Serner's question, Xu Qi nodded, "Don't underestimate the team I used to play for. We won the Chinese League championship two months ago!"

Serner shook his head: "I don't underestimate your Chinese team. Jikov was famous in our Eastern Europe before. Your Chinese team has a lot of foreign players from our Eastern Europe, as well as players from my motherland. Western Europe players or coaches may be disdainful of you, but we Eastern Europe will not look down on you!"

"In fact, our level is not high. The football level in Eastern Europe is already very high for us." Xu Qi couldn't help but be modest when he saw Serner say this. After all, he could know from training that there was actually a huge gap in strength between the two teams.

The Donetsk Miners are a giant-level team for Shandong Luneng. He has to be modest so as not to suffer a crushing defeat later.

"Xu, I will pass more balls to you by then. You must want to perform well in front of your old club, right?" Serner said with a smile.

"Thank you." Xu Qi touched his head.

In fact, he didn't want to show off in front of his old boss so much.

Those who want to perform are often players who can't make it through the old club and are eventually abandoned by the old club. Players like him who leave the team as the ace in front of his club really have no desire to perform.

But since Serner said he wanted to pass more balls to him, he naturally had to thank him.

The teammates seemed to know that the opponent in this warm-up match was Xu Qi's old club, and they all greeted Xu Qi.

"Hi, Xu. If I scored a lot of goals from your old club in this game, you wouldn't mind?" William laughed and teased Xu Qi.

"Of course, it's your ability to score a lot of goals!" Xu Qi replied, "I also hope I can score a lot of goals, why not compare, right?"

After all, it was a friendly match, and the outcome was not that critical, so Xu Qi became interested in competing with William.

Xu Qi has very great ambitions. Although he is not in the team now, he always wants to challenge him. If he can't become a trump player in this team, then it would be a bit of a dream to fulfill his ambitions.

If you want to become a trump card of a team, you naturally have to become a stronger player than the current ace of this team.

At present, the trump card of this team is William in front of him.

"Okay, I like this kind of pk the most." William seemed to have more motivation for the game.

Originally, he felt that the game was a bit boring, but suddenly it became more interesting.

William also appreciated Xu Qi's performance in the last warm-up match with Fenerbahce. Did he know that overtaking his Brazilian senior Robert Carlos is actually not an easy task.

In that case, if William was allowed to make a breakthrough, he might not be able to do better than Xu Qi.

At this time, he also admitted that Xu Qi did have his uniqueness in terms of breakthroughs.
