Chapter 98 Half-Championship

Sometimes, even if a foreseeable victory seems to be without suspense, it will still cause trouble in the process.

Qingdao team is not a weak team. Jiang Ning and Liu Zhenli in their team are both Xu Qi's teammates in the National Olympic Team, and Qu Bo and midfielder Liu Jian on the forward line are also famous players in China and are frequent visitors to the national team.

However, this team has always been insufficient in capital, which has led to their seemingly targeting relegation every year.

Now that the schedule is halfway through, they are deeply trapped in the relegation zone, and they do not want to be stepped on by the mortal enemy in the same province again. Therefore, even if they are two goals behind the score early, they still resist with a very sharp counterattack.

Soon, Shandong Luneng team also discovered that the so-called foreseeable victory did not come as expected, and then Qingdao team immediately fought back with a sharp counterattack.

Liu Jian sent the ball to the frontcourt in the midfield, Jiang Ning made a cross from the left, and Qu Bo inserted into the header in front of the goal and shot slightly higher than the crossbar.

Qu Bo also seemed to have some injuries during this attack, and in the end he was replaced by young player Zheng Long because he could not persist.

However, perhaps because of Qu Bo's injury, Qingdao's attack did not serve as a reminder to the Luneng team, and their defense line did not feel alert.

So, just eight minutes after Zheng Long appeared on the court, he received a goal from Qingdao forward foreign aid Brown, and shot through the Luneng team's goal.

Of course, the Qingdao team did not want the suspense of the game to end, and such a goal gave them hope to grab points.

Therefore, the Qingdao team's attack went deeper.

The Luneng team, who was awakened by this goal, began their counterattack against Qingdao team, who wanted to score points on this stadium!

In the subsequent game, Shandong Luneng team instead launched a defensive counterattack that they were not good at.

But facing the Qingdao Zhongneng team, which is under heavy pressure, Luneng team's counterattack basically relies on Xu Qi's breakthrough to sort out.

Xu Qi can calmly stop the ball in the middle and turn around, then dribble the ball and advance.

And he has an excellent overall view and can reasonably allocate the ball to the route the ball should go.

As the first half was about to end, Xu Qi passed the ball to Jikovvic on the left side. Jikovvic passed the ball back again to Xu Qi who was in time after exiting the ball.

Xu Qi directly pushed the ball out of a perfect arc with his foot arch facing the ball!

As a teammate of the National Olympic Team, Liu Zhenli did not save the ball, and could only watch the ball enter the net.

Shandong Luneng once again widened the gap to two goals.

Xu Qi completed another goal!

This is his fifth goal in the Super League this season.

His celebration was calm and not particularly excited. Although the fans at home were shouting his name and were very enthusiastic, Xu Qi still celebrated it symbolically.

He felt that this goal wasn't very critical, because he was also one of those who foresaw a big victory.

So he seemed a lot calmer.

Sure enough, in the second half, Shandong Luneng, who played at home, scored two more goals.

Foreign aid Milian and Lu Zheng, who came on as a substitute, each scored a goal, and in the end the game turned out to be a foreseeable victory!

Shandong Luneng defeated Qingdao Zhongneng five-to-one at home.

It was also considered to be a good start for Luneng's first home game after the interval period.

Moreover, after this game, Luneng has completed all fifteen rounds of the first half of the Chinese Super League. Through this supplementary game, Luneng also surpassed Shaanxi Zhongxin Xiangba in the standings and successfully topped the standings!

In other words, after the last make-up match in the first half, Luneng successfully won the half-time championship of the 2008 Chinese Super League.

Of course, there is no reward for half-time championship. If you want to win the real championship, the remaining second half of the competition is even more critical!

Although it was not really a championship, the club held a small celebration and also offered a large amount of bonus rewards for all the team players.

"Who said that there is no reward for the half-time champion? Isn't this a bonus? Or is the bonus coming true, and I can't carry the trophy home by myself." Xu Qi was very happy.

But they don’t have much time to be happy because they don’t have much time to go next. Five days later, they will challenge the Shaanxi team, which was just surpassed by them in the standings.

You should know that Shaanxi team has not lost at home this season. If Luneng loses to Shaanxi team away, then Luneng will give up the top spot again.

If you lose to Shaanxi team, the initiative will not be on the Shandong Luneng team on the road to winning the championship in the Chinese Super League.

However, the team is in good shape recently, and they have enough confidence to win the Chinese Super League championship this season.

During this period, because the team officially ended half-time, many media began to make half-time summary.

For example, who is the biggest discovery in the Chinese Super League this season? Regarding this question, Xu Qi was the only candidate.

No one is better than him. He has achieved a very eye-catching performance in his first Chinese Super League season. Not only has he become the main player in the team, but his data is not inferior to anyone at all.

With five goals and two assists, he is the fourth scorer in the team, second only to Han Peng, Li Jinyu and Wang Yongpo, but his role in offensive end is not simply classified as goals.

He is just a midfielder, and he and Han Peng played five rounds less.

Moreover, his performance in the Olympics was also very outstanding, which also added a lot of points to him on the other hand.

So basically in all media selections, Xu Qi won the award for Best Newcomer.

There are even some websites that directly rate the best player to Xu Qi.

Xu Qi felt that she was so popular that she had accepted a series of exclusive interviews.

In the interview, he still seemed so low-key and humble.

...

"This is a half-time champion, as if it has won the championship in the eyes of many people." Xu Qi smiled faintly. Sitting in a good Western restaurant, he accepted an invitation from a beautiful woman to come to the banquet.

He had just finished a visit two hours ago and felt a little tired. In the past few days, he had some training and visits, which really made him feel a little anxious. Today, a beautiful girlfriend suddenly said she wanted to treat him to a meal, which surprised him a little.

Of course, he would not refuse such a thing, so he came to the Western Restaurant and waited on time.

Before coming, he specially wore sunglasses and a baseball cap to prevent being recognized and photographed, because the beauty he was about to meet was also a well-known figure in China. He has accepted a lot of interviews recently. If he was photographed, it would easily lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.

While he was alone, Xu Qi liked to look out through the glass windows of this Western restaurant.

"Has that apartment been demolished?" Xu Qi looked into the distance. It was an old apartment he once rented, and it has been demolished now.
