The victory over Tottenham Hotspur gave Qin Xiong an unprecedented spiritual satisfaction.
He was a person who was very sensitive to "defending himself."
But in real life, when the Tottenham Hotspur fans provoked him and verbally humiliated him, he could not respond. Otherwise, he would only get himself involved in trouble, especially since it was equivalent to wasting his time.
Therefore, this hatred and anger to fight back had to be vented on Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.
If they were not diehard Tottenham Hotspur fans, they would not provoke and humiliate Arsenal players in the streets. Therefore, the more loyal they were to Tottenham Hotspur, the more painful Tottenham Hotspur's crushing defeat would be.
This was Qin Xiong's counterattack!
Qin Xiong, who scored a hat-trick, could not only collect the ball used in the match, but also receive a bottle of champagne as a reward.
He asked his teammates to sign the ball in the locker room before he wrote down the specific date, the two sides of the match, and the score. Of course, this ball had to be taken home for his collection.
As for the champagne, it was opened when he returned to the locker room. First, it was sprayed on his teammates. Then, everyone took turns to drink it in high spirits.
A 7: 3 victory would make the whole team extremely excited, but Qin Xiong felt that this excitement might have come from the venting of negative emotions, which was revenge.
It was different from previous victories, where there might be more ego and anticipation for the future. That was a kind of pure ambition.
Today was also very simple. Perhaps he could not objectively evaluate Tottenham Hotspur in his heart, so defeating Tottenham Hotspur did not make him feel anything special. He just felt that venting and making Tottenham Hotspur suffer was his greatest joy!
After showering and changing into a clean set of clothes in the White Hart Lane locker room, Wenger praised the whole team's performance and then went to attend the post-match press conference.
The Arsenal players could stay for a while and leave on their own after a break.
White Hart Lane was less than five kilometers away from Highbury, so the whole team did not need to leave together.
Ashley Cole suggested that they go to a nightclub to celebrate and have a drink. Qin Xiong happily agreed to go with them, which was rare.
After the extreme excitement, Qin Xiong needed to relax.
In fact, Arsenal had very little off-field activities, not as rich as Qin Xiong's in Ajax.
Perhaps it had something to do with his teammates' living conditions.
Ajax was the world of young people. Even if he had a girlfriend, it was fine to go to a bar or nightclub together. Moreover, the Dutch were open-minded.
However, most of the players in Arsenal's squad, such as Henry, Vieira, Campbell, and Pires, were all married, so they rarely went to entertainment venues with great fanfare. After all, they were in England, and because of the existence of Fleet Street, not only did gossip spread quickly, but it would also be very outrageous.
The nightclub king of the team was Ashley Cole. Seeing that Qin Xiong was willing to go to a nightclub, he enthusiastically took the lead and took the initiative to invite Qin Xiong to sit in his car.
Fàbregas also went along. In fact, his life in England was more monotonous and boring. After all, he was also foreign aid.
On the way to the nightclub in Ashley Cole's car, Qin Xiong was still thinking about the competition.
This was a special match!
Qin Xiong thought after calming down.
Whether it was the atmosphere, the meaning of the game, or even the process of the game, it was special.
From a competitive point of view, Arsenal was not like Arsenal, and Tottenham was very different from the Tottenham team at the beginning of the season.
It could be said that this game had no competitive value except for Arsenal's three points!
Because in addition to facing Tottenham, Arsenal would not have shown the "loss of control" like today when facing other opponents.
That's right, Arsenal scored seven goals.
But this did not mean that Arsenal's offensive firepower was so powerful that it was unstoppable. It was Tottenham and Arsenal who bombarded each other in an irrational state at the same time, and then Tottenham lost.
It was that simple.
Coupled with the loss of three goals, this could not be ignored. It was a warning.
Not to mention that Tottenham Hotspur's strength was still a distance away from the European football world's top teams, just based on Tottenham Hotspur's tactics today, even the top European teams would not play like this against Arsenal. Giving Arsenal a wide space to counter offside? Dream on!
Therefore, the game had no training value or reference value.
If Arsenal dared to play like today against a powerhouse team in the five major leagues, they would really die without a burial ground if the defensive midfielder did not defend!
Perhaps because of the special nature of the game, Qin Xiong did not have to think too much. When he arrived at the nightclub, he sorted out his mood, emptied his mind and prepared to relax for a while.
Ashley Cole had a smile on his face throughout. He looked more excited, probably because a teammate was willing to come to the nightclub with him.
It had to be said that Arsenal's local players had become sparse since the end of the era of the five defenders. In addition, most of the other players were married. Players like Ashley Cole, who were not married or were naturally flirtatious, could hardly find teammates to come out and have fun with at Arsenal.
He did not understand Qin Xiong and Fàbregas' character, well, character in life.
So today, he wanted to see if his two teammates were kindred spirits.
The nightclub was quite high-class, located in London's famous Mayflower Square.
Whether a nightclub was popular or not, in fact, did not depend on the decor, but on the number and quality of the beauties.
The three Arsenal players sat in a booth on the edge of the dance floor. Ashley Cole ordered some drinks with ease and then began to talk and laugh with his two teammates. His eyes wandered over the many beauties in the nightclub.
Fàbregas seemed a little shy and always put on a serious expression.
Qin Xiong did not feel uncomfortable. He had developed a "big heart" in Amsterdam and adapted well to this kind of occasion and atmosphere.
Some of the beauties would secretly throw flirtatious glances in their direction, but Fàbregas would pretend to ignore them and look away. Then, after two seconds, he would secretly look back.
Qin Xiong was very calm.
There were many beauties in the nightclub. Qin Xiong did not know them anyway. Ashley Cole excitedly introduced the situation to the two of them.
"There are a lot of girls here, from different places and different identities."
"Look at that one. She's wearing more clothes. I bet she just came to London from another city and is not familiar with this place. Otherwise, she wouldn't be dressed like this."
"Look at those two. Yes, the two who just raised their glasses and winked at us. Pretty, aren't they? Do you know them? "
"Don't know? Well, it looks like you don't read the newspapers. They're the third page girls of The Sun. Just now, it was not a hint. If you're interested, you can talk to them. But if you want to bring them home, it's best to sound them out. Some of them will charge, and some really want to make friends with players like us. Uh, you know. "
Seeing that Qin Xiong was listening very seriously and kept nodding, Ashley Cole misunderstood Qin Xiong's reaction. He thought Qin Xiong was learning from experience. In fact, Qin Xiong had always been like this. When others talked to him, he would listen very seriously and respond to show that he had taken it in. This was the respect he gave to his friends in social interactions.
Ashley Cole was full of exultation as he gave an in-depth introduction.
"Don't think that the men who come here treat girls as prey. That's not entirely true. Let me tell you, professional players like us who can earn a lot of money will be targeted by many women. You have to be careful. Don't be deceived by some girls who look good. They are very scheming. As far as I know, many Premier League players have been cheated. The women who sleep next to them may be thinking about how to hook up with other star players day and night!"
"Well, I'll be careful. I'm not here to look for women."
Qin Xiong's straightforward words made Ashley Cole choke.
Just as Ashley Cole did not understand Qin Xiong's character in life, Qin Xiong did not understand him.
As for his teammates coming to the nightclub for sex, he did not think there was any problem. It was all consensual between men and women. He came here just to relax, close his eyes to feel the passionate music, dance and chat. This was his purpose, and he would not force it on his teammates.
He was not interested in asking or criticizing other people's private lives.
Ashley Cole was very well-behaved today. On the one hand, the two young teammates were very quiet. On the other hand, he now had a girlfriend. He had just met the female star Cheryl last month, so naturally, it was not good for him to have a scandal with other girls here. He was sure that many girls would take this opportunity to hype their own fame. He would not be fooled.
Qin Xiong and Fàbregas stood up with the loud music. They held wine glasses in their hands and swayed their bodies rhythmically. The two men chatted casually.
Before the song ended, a scene that startled Qin Xiong suddenly happened on the dance floor.
It seemed that someone had drunk too much, and there were friends next to him jeering. The man roared and yelled, "I'm a player! I have money! But I don't even have a girl!!! "
With that, he took out 50 pounds and lit it in public …
