Chapter 33: Champion
Chapter 33: Champion
After a period of exhaustion, Genk finally stabilized the situation. In the 72nd minute, Genk was near the midfield and successfully stole the ball from Anderlecht.
Caspar Blanche took the first step to poke the ball across the center line, accelerated to catch up, and then sent the ball to the right rear of the defense line.
Wang Feng, who followed up, caught up with the ball at the fastest speed, controlled the ball at the front of the penalty area, and approached the penalty area with the ball at the same time.
Seeing this, Anderlecht's defenders immediately came to block Wang Feng.
But Wang Feng didn't wait for him to approach, and directly changed to the Fried Ball. It seemed that he was about to pass from the bottom, but in fact it was a horizontal inward cut. The defensive player's center of gravity was unstable, and he lost his footing, allowing Wang Feng to successfully sway past him.
After entering the penalty area, Wang Feng did not wait for the goalkeeper to react, and directly shot an angry shot. The ball flew to the far corner, hit the inside of the post and bounced into the net.
3:0, Genk sealed the victory! Before the game, no one would have imagined that the score would be one-sided.
As the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Genk beat Anderlecht and won the Belgian Cup!
The coaching staff and the bench players, who had already been in good mood on the sidelines, also rushed into the stadium in a swarm, celebrating the victory with forgetfulness.
Anderlecht lost so thoroughly, mainly due to two reasons. The first is that Genk set up a lot of defensive measures against Jan Koller, a tough attacker, which limited his performance to a certain extent. The second is that having won the league championship, they are somewhat slacking in thinking.
But in any case, Genk achieved a hearty victory and won the Belgian Cup as they wished.
Wang Feng also breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, his physical strength was almost exhausted. Anderlecht adopted the same defensive strategy as in the last match. Wang Feng was their key care object, so he was almost always taken care of.
Sitting paralyzed on the lawn, Wang Feng watched Genk's players and coaching staff celebrating wildly, with a smile on his lips. Is this the taste of a champion? He was a little addicted.
At this moment, Jan Kohler came over, sat beside him, and said with a wry smile, "Last time I won a small victory, but this time I lost completely. Is this your revenge?"
Wang Feng smiled and looked at the Czech: "Yes, I am very revengeful."
Jan Kohler shrugged helplessly, patted Wang Feng on the back, and then walked towards the players' tunnel in a slightly depressed manner.
At this moment, Blanche saw Wang Feng sitting on the side, so he ran over and shouted, "Wang, what are you doing, hurry up and celebrate, you are our great hero."
Several other players also ran over, they lifted Wang Feng up, and celebrated by throwing him high together.
After the podium was simply built in the center of the stadium, the award ceremony began. The best player in the cup was naturally won by Wang Feng.
Then the players of Genk, under the leadership of captain Aaron Abigail, stepped onto the podium and raised the championship trophy high.
Wang Feng took the trophy from his teammates. This is his first professional league championship trophy! If there is any regret, it is that his relatives are far away in China and did not come to the scene to see his success with their own eyes.
But there will always be opportunities in the future, Wang Feng thought silently. He will return to China this summer, and then he will be able to reunite with his family. After all, he is still an underage child.
The Genk fans in the stands naturally did not leave and were cheering for the team. Some local fans in Brussels also stayed and applauded Genk at this time.
In a box in the stands, Genk team manager Bill Albert looked at Wang Feng happily holding the trophy on the field, fell into deep thought, and occasionally frowned, as if there was something difficult to decide.
Wang Feng expressed his willingness to stay in the team through his agent, but Paris gave too much. But he remembered the words of the head coach Antonis before the game: "Albert, I know you are in a difficult situation now, but I have only one idea, to keep the king."
"This is not only a suggestion made by a head coach for performance, but also a friend's advice. Wang's value is definitely underestimated. As long as he is given another season, he will definitely be able to make achievements that shock Europe, and his worth will be much more than that by then"
In the end, Albert decided to take a gamble. He picked up the phone and called Wang Feng's agent: "Balmond, according to your statement, next season Wang's weekly salary is 30,000 euros, and we will renew the contract."
After the awards ceremony, many reporters gathered around, mainly targeting Wang Feng. One of the reporters asked, "Wang, have you considered transferring? Which club are you planning to go to?"
Wang Feng replied: "I have no intention of leaving Genk now. In fact, I think I still have a lot of room for improvement. Genk is also a very good club."
Some reporters refused to give up and asked: "Paris Saint-Germain is bound to win you, and offered a sky-high transfer fee and a superstar annual salary. What do you think of this?"
Wang Feng answered impeccably: "I am very grateful to Chairman Lawrence Pompey for his affirmation of me, but I have handed over such matters to my agent and the team manager for consultation. I just want to play football with peace of mind."
After finishing speaking, he signaled that he needed to take a rest. Because he was really tired, he walked towards the dressing room without looking back.
At the press conference after the game, Anderlecht coach Edgar Weiss said in an interview: "We failed to limit the king, and this is the reason for the loss."
Genk coach Aimee Antonis said: "We played a high-quality game, all tactics were executed perfectly, so we won. Wang is an excellent shooter, but without the support of other players, he is also helpless."
When asked whether or not they would sell Wang Feng, Antonis said that this is something the club needs to consider, and he only has the right to make personnel suggestions. "Of course I hope Wang will stay. He is the core of the team's offense."
Anderlecht star Jan Koller also said in an interview: "After the last game with Genk, Wang told me that he will win next time."
"He is a very self-disciplined player who is eager to win. I believe he will become a superstar."
Wang Feng, who returned to his residence, received a call from his agent Francisco Balmond: "Wang, your wish has come true. Albert agreed to keep you this summer and sign a contract with a weekly salary of 30,000 euros. You became the highest paid player in Genk."
Wang was also very happy when he heard the news. This is really a double blessing. He told Balmond about his plan to return to China this summer, and then said: "Bamond, I want to hire a personal trainer to guide me in my training. It's not good for specific training to occupy Genk's resources all the time, please help me find candidates."
Balmond agreed, and decided to meet in China together, "Wang, you have a high commercial value in China that can be tapped, take advantage of the opportunity to return to China this summer, and use it well."
