Before Christmas, Arsenal held a Christmas party internally. The players brought their families to have a meal together. Qin Xiong also attended the party with Sylvia. Arsenal's internal players had families, so they were not too crazy when they came out to have fun.
The draw for the Champions League knockout stage was also announced at the same time.
Arsenal's luck was terrible!
They drew the strongest opponent in the other groups.
Bayern Munich!
Arsenal, who had always been weak in European competitions, was regarded by the outside world as dangerous and unpredictable in this season's Champions League, with their future uncertain.
However, the players' mentality was relatively normal, especially Qin Xiong, who did not take it to heart at all.
It was not that he was full of confidence. He had always been like this. In football, panicking before playing a game was equivalent to losing half the game before playing.
Qin Xiong spent a western-style Christmas in the apartment with George and Sylvia. Although it was not lively, his second Christmas in Europe was also very happy, especially when he was entangled with Sylvia in the middle of the night, which almost made him collapse.
He felt that it was really difficult to be a successful professional athlete, very difficult!
In addition to having a high level of professionalism, he also had to restrain himself in life.
Fortunately, Sylvia was not the kind of woman who clung to people. She often took the initiative to remind Qin Xiong of his rest time. She wanted to be a successful woman who was helpful to Qin Xiong's career.
Qin Xiong was a man. It was impossible for him not to have a woman. But if it was a woman who wanted to squeeze a man dry regardless of the consequences, perhaps one would be enough to destroy a man.
Therefore, Sylvia would also take the initiative to restrain herself. She was also honing her willpower to prevent herself and Qin Xiong from sinking into the sea of desire.
That was also difficult. How could it be easy to refuse the temptation of a wonderful blend?
As a Dutch with liberal views on sex, Sylvia talked openly and sincerely with Qin Xiong about this topic.
She needed to reach a consensus with Qin Xiong. In order to prevent Qin Xiong from overindulging, the two of them had to reduce the number of times they had sex. But in return, they had to increase the quality of their sex life!
Qin Xiong agreed with her point of view. There was no way he could disagree!
The exhaustion of excessive indulgence on the body was something that could be understood without practice.
And if the quality was improved, it would allow the two of them to explore together, increase communication, and increase their interest in each other. Qin Xiong thought that this was good, really good. When Sylvia put on her sexy underwear and sat on the bed waiting to flirt with him …
F-U-C-K！ How could it not be good?
The Great Christmas War was on the second night of Christmas.
Arsenal's opponent in the London derby was Fulham.
Highbury was filled with a festive Christmas atmosphere. Many fans were dressed as Santa Claus in the stands, and many parents brought their children to watch the match, waiting for Arsenal to give them New Year's gifts.
There was nothing better than a victory in the Great Christmas War as a gift.
Fulham did not pretend to be weak in Highbury. Perhaps it was to cater to the Christmas atmosphere, but they did not want to play a match on New Year's Day. Instead, they were sullenly defending and being bombarded by their opponents.
So, they still gave it their all in Highbury and went head-to-head with Arsenal.
Although Henry's condition had improved, it was clear that he had not yet recovered to his best condition. He still missed a few good opportunities.
In an open offensive situation, Qin Xiong was able to play to his strengths of accurate passing.
He constantly created opportunities for his teammates in the offensive side, and continuously assisted Pires and Henry to score. In the 70th minute of the second half, he was substituted off the field by Wenger, and received warm applause from the Arsenal fans in the stadium.
Qin Xiong's prestige was obviously not as high as Henry and Vieira, but he had at least become the new favorite in the eyes of the Arsenal fans. If he could continue to play brilliantly, he might be able to become one of the top three players in the team by the end of the season.
Fàbregas, who came on as a substitute, also played brilliantly. He scored a goal and helped the team send off Fulham with a score of 3: 0.
Arsenal's Great Christmas War was perfect. They got three points without shedding any blood and continued to suppress Chelsea in the standings by only one point.
Chelsea's stability and terror were frightening!
At the same time, at the end of the 19th round of the Premier League, Arsenal created a new unbeaten record in the five major leagues.
Fifty-nine games unbeaten!
The birth of this new record made Arsenal's New Year even more exciting!
After the game, Wenger accepted the media's interview with satisfaction. In the face of the new record, he proudly said, "We have created a great record. This is a very, very difficult achievement. I want to thank the players. They have written themselves into history. Is Arsenal the strongest in Europe? It's hard to say, but we are one of the most competitive teams. There is no doubt about that! In England, there is no better team than us. In Europe, we will work hard to break through and become the strongest team! Fifty-nine games unbeaten is not the end, absolutely not. Our performance shows no signs of slipping. We will persevere and push this great record to a new height! "
In the locker room after the game, the teammates opened champagne to celebrate the new unbeaten record!
Some players were making strange roars, some players were dancing, and some players were taking pictures of themselves …
Recently, Qin Xiong would take a shower and change his clothes early after the game, and then he would be the first to leave.
His teammates knew that his girlfriend had come to London to accompany him and understood his young mood.
When he changed his clothes and picked up his leisure bag, Fàbregas had just come out of the shower. He said to Qin Xiong in Spanish, "Are you free tomorrow?"
The two of them often communicated in Spanish in private. His teammates only knew that Qin Xiong was improving his Spanish level very late. There was a short period of time before when they thought that the two of them were gay … Do not ignore Fleet Street's ability to create hype!
Qin Xiong naturally replied in Spanish, "Yes."
They still had a game the day after tomorrow. It could be said that today was the start of the new year's devil's schedule.
Fàbregas opened the wardrobe and put on his underwear. He said, "Then let's have dinner together tomorrow. Me, you, Carra and your girlfriend, Sylvia Slott, right?"
Qin Xiong nodded. He knew who Carra was, Fàbregas' Spanish girlfriend.
After agreeing to Fàbregas, Qin Xiong left the locker room.
The next day, Fleet Street carried out a major special report on Arsenal's new unbeaten record!
"Arsenal creates new history in Europe's top league!"
"Fifty-nine games unbeaten! Salute to the Arsenal! "
"Who will stop Arsenal?"
Every player was proud of Arsenal's achievements, and the fans were happy too.
There was a new round of stimulation in the sales of jerseys, an increase in global awareness and new development in the market, which corresponded to the personal interests of the players.
Freddy informed Qin Xiong that there were many new sponsors who wanted to cooperate with him.
In the summer of last year, he had signed a lot of sponsorship endorsements in China, but most of those companies were eyeing his market influence in China.
Now, some international brands that focused on market development in Europe wanted to cooperate with Qin Xiong, because Qin Xiong's influence in Europe was also growing day by day.
It was just that the Chinese fan market in Europe was not small, but it was a little scattered.
Qin Xiong's elegant style of play and delicate and dexterous football skills began to attract the attention of mainstream European fan groups, and many European fans also became his fans.
It could be said that December 2004 was a month in which Qin Xiong's personal influence greatly increased.
The Asian Footballer of the Year, the Ballon d 'Or, the European Golden Boy Award, Arsenal's 59-game unbeaten record, and in a series of football events, some of which he played the protagonist, some of which he did not, but also had a certain increase in popularity. After accumulation, his influence began to change qualitatively!
In such a context where good news was constantly coming from around him.
Qin Xiong and Fàbregas each took their girlfriends to a high-end restaurant in London for a dinner that was described by Fleet Street as "two pairs of golden boys and jade girls."
The dinner went smoothly. While enjoying the delicious food, the friends chatted happily.
However, when he went out after dinner, Qin Xiong felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He saw a line of words written with spray paint on the body of his Bentley.
“arse,arse,arse,arsenal。”
Ass, ass, ass, Arsenal!
When Arsenal was mocked by the opponent's fans, they often encountered awkward situations. That was the pronunciation of the word "Arsenal". If there was a pause in the middle, it would be "arse," which meant ass.
There was no doubt that this kind of wicked thing must be done by the fans of the enemy!
Otherwise, even if there were fans who hated Arsenal, they would not pay attention to what kind of car Qin Xiong drove, and even risk going to the police station to lose money after they happened to bump into him.
Fàbregas comforted Qin Xiong and said, "Don't worry too much, it's probably done by our neighbor's fans."
This area was the jurisdiction of North London. It was obvious which camp the suspect belonged to.
Qin Xiong was furious and in a terrible mood. He cherished his things very much. Every time he drove home, he would personally clean the car.
He turned his head and asked Fàbregas with a cold expression.
"When is the next time we play against Tottenham Hotspur?"
