Chapter 289 Dong Qiudi's Dream
Five minutes after Dong Qiudi made up his mind, he became a little discouraged. m
Thinking of going abroad, he still needs to apply for a passport, a household registration book, and a visa. What if the visa is not approved? And where did I get so much money? In addition, he doesn't speak Italian, and he doesn't know the place where he lives. What if he is kidnapped? I heard that there are a lot of gangsters in Italy...and what if I go to work in Italy? If I ask for leave, will the boss approve it? If I told him that I was going to Italy to watch the game, I would definitely be regarded as crazy, right?
The more Dong Qiudi thought about it, the more worried he became. All kinds of doubts emerged from his mind, like a torrential rain, trying to extinguish the flame in his heart.
The "I'm going to Rome!" fire faltered and could go out at any moment.
Finally, it seems to be off.
All fell silent.
Dong Qiudi looked at the ecstatic text on the screen again, and suddenly he couldn't get excited.
He silently closed the web page.
He sat in front of the computer, not knowing what to do.
Even the football game videos that I usually like to watch most are no longer interesting.
He likes football and watching football, but the games he can watch in China are limited, only a few league games.
Such a number of games cannot satisfy him at all.
Although he is a fan of Lazio, he also likes watching football games very much, not only limited to Lazio games. What Chinese Super League, Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, Premier League, Ligue 1, Argentina, Brazil... He watches them all.
These are televised.
He also watched what was not shown on TV.
He bought a satellite pot cover and secretly installed it on the roof of his house to receive foreign TV stations. He is interested in the leagues of various countries, and he even watches the Malaysian league...Russian league, Turkish league, Norwegian league The league, the Scottish Premier League, the Portuguese Premier League, the Eredivisie... He watches all these leagues in this way.
He is keen on watching the game because he likes to conduct various analysis while watching the game.
For example, analyze the formation of the starting lineups of both sides, and analyze the tactics played by both sides.
Later he took this as a little game.
He will guess the tactical arrangements of the head coaches of both sides, and then see if he is right based on the game.
Right and wrong, he never tires of it.
Just like some people like to play mahjong, some like to read comics, some like to play online games, some like to play football, and Dong Qiudi likes to watch football.
This is his only pastime after work.
He doesn't smoke, drink, or socialize. Wandering and working alone in this unfamiliar city, he doesn't have any close friends.
After finishing work every day, he returned to his rented "home". Turn on the TV to watch the games of various countries.
When there is no game, he will go online and dive in various fan websites, forums and Q groups.
Then make a phone call to my parents who are far away in my hometown once a week to report their safety and care about my parents.
He spends all his spare time watching football matches.
He could go downstairs all weekend for that.
There are times when he thinks he is so obsessed with watching football. Is it a disease.
Football is his life.
This summer, Lazio came to China for the second time to play the Super Cup. This time it was a derby against Rome. This made him, a Lazio fan, very excited. He wanted to watch the match live.
This idea is as strong as he wanted to go to Italy just now...
Of course, going to Beijing is much easier than going to Rome. So he was not discouraged, and took advantage of the weekend weekend to go to Beijing. He got his wish to see Lazio's game in the Bird's Nest in Beijing, witnessed Lazio beat Roma, and won the Italian Super Cup.
Excited, his adrenaline surged once again, he took off his clothes and naked his body. Jumping off the stands with the Lazio flag on!
He swears that at that moment he really didn't think about what to do if he fell down...
Anyway, he was lucky. After jumping, only some scrapes on the knees and arms.
Then he ran all the way to his idol, Lazio's savior, Chang Sheng's side!
He hugged Chang Sheng and asked Chang Sheng for his autograph and photo.
In the end, he managed to get these two things, but was also taken away by the police...
Of course, in the end he was just educated by criticism.
It can be regarded as his luck.
He also became a celebrity on the Internet because of this, and some people called him "Brother Naked".
However, "Streaking Brother" Dong Qiudi is not famous in real life.
After all, he is an otaku, and he usually keeps a low profile in the neighborhood near his home, basically like an invisible person.
The colleagues in his company didn't know that a person who was usually low-key and silent would have such crazy behavior.
Moreover, the craze on the Internet rises quickly and fades quickly.
Soon no one paid attention to him anymore.
After that, Dong Qiudi continued to live in his football world, watched various games, continued to cheer for Lazio's victory online, and continued to be busy with his life in his nine-to-five job.
Until just now, he decided to go to Rome.
This is a very bold idea.
But now he was terrified.
For him, going to Rome is a million times more difficult than going to Beijing.
There are too many very practical problems bothering him.
Dong Qiudi, who sat in front of the computer for a while, stood up and turned on the TV beside the computer desk.
Because he remembered that today is Monday, and there is "World Football" at this time.
It is said on the Internet that this issue of "World Football" has a small feature on Lazio.
Introduce how Chang Sheng, the head coach of China, became a big star in the city of Rome.
Lazio is a supporting role in this special program, but Dong Qiudi still wants to watch it, because he is also a fan of Changsheng.
Looking at the posters and advertisements of Changsheng in the streets and alleys of Rome, I asked Lazio fans in Rome to ask them what they thought of Changsheng, and almost all of them had expressions of admiration.
Slowly, Dong Qiudi was also infected - there is no way, he is such an excitable person.
When I heard the commentary say: "For Lazio fans, it is really a pleasure to watch a Lazio game live every week. Not only enjoy the beauty of football, but also enjoy the victory...". He finally made up his mind.
He's going to Rome!
This time it's for real!
He wants to watch a Roman city derby at the Olympic Stadium. Although this city derby is no longer a gimmick for Italy, it is still of great significance to him, a Chinese Lazio fan.
He also knows that he is not the first Chinese fan to watch the Rome derby at the Olympic Stadium, but for himself, this is his first time.
He would love to go.

Dong Qiudi took advantage of the weekend and ran back to his hometown, got the household registration book from his parents, and then asked the boss for a day off to apply for a passport.
Of course, he didn't tell his boss what he was going to do. It's just that there is something urgent at home.
As a result, the boss on the phone was very unhappy, muttering in his mouth, complaining that the business is busy now. Dong Qiudi, you still want to go home...
In the end, he was still right, but told Dong Qiudi that the bonus for this quarter was gone.
Dong Qiudi couldn't take care of that much anymore.
The thought of going to Rome overwhelmed everything.
What is a bonus compared to realizing your dreams?
Apply for a passport. Applying for visas... He was frantically busy with these things.
There was fire in his heart.
A month later, he will appear in the North Stand of the Olympic Stadium, where he will witness a Lazio victory with his own eyes!
In the tenth round of the league, Lazio vs. Roma at home!
※ ※ ※
While Dong Qiudi is working hard to realize his crazy dream, Lazio is making steady progress under the leadership of Chang Sheng.
In the sixth round, Lazio defeated Brescia 3:1 at home.
In the seventh round, Lazio defeated Barry 2-0 away.
Then they have their third opponent in the Champions League group stage at your home stadium, Tottenham Hotspur.
Before the game, public opinion did not think that Tottenham Hotspur, which returned to the Champions League stage after 48 years, could pose any threat to Lazio.
"The last time Tottenham Hotspur participated in the Champions League was in the 1961-1962 season. At that time, the current Tottenham Hotspur coach Redknapp was a ball boy... This is Tottenham Hotspur The first and only time in the history of the club to participate in the Champions League. They reached the semi-finals of the Champions League that time, but were knocked out by the mighty Benfica. Tottenham Hotspur, who lacked Champions League experience, wanted to cause trouble for Lazio .is difficult. Especially at home to Lazio..."
This is a commentary article from Corriere dello Sport before the game.
But Chang Sheng attaches great importance to this game.
In the eyes of the players, Tottenham Hotspur is no different from the previous two.
They don't understand why the boss attaches so much importance to this opponent. Before the games against Werder Bremen and Twente, they didn't see the boss like this...
It is naturally impossible for Chang Sheng to tell his players. Because he came from time travel, he knows how powerful Bell is. If you are not careful, you will be blown up by him or something.
He can only tell his players in an analytical tone, according to Tottenham Hotspur's game video, Gareth Bale is the most threatening player in Tottenham Hotspur, so he must be targeted Make some arrangements.
The players accepted this explanation.
Anyway, listening to the boss is always right.
From the game video that the boss showed them, it can also be found that Bell's speed is indeed very fast.
If you let him rush up, Lazio's defense... there is really no good way except fouling.
So the key to this game is not to let Bell and Lennon increase their speed.
As long as they can't rush up, the threat is much smaller.
Therefore, in this game, Lazio's defensive tactics only focus on how to limit Tottenham Hotspur's wing attack.
Gareth Bale on the left, Lennon on the right. These are the two people that Chang Sheng specially circled to make the whole team pay special attention during the game.
Then, the game came.

PS: It's a new day, and it's also the second day of double monthly tickets. Everyone was very good yesterday, but the distance from the fifth place is only a few dozen votes...
Let's cheer with me today!
Let's keep going!
Even if the books in the city are crazy this month, we must let the top five leave our football name!
