Arrogance: One goal and the opposing coach was sent off? And he even flirted with girls

Chapter 105 Arrogance: One goal and the opposing coach was sent off? And he even flirted with girls on live TV?

When the referee heard the instructions in his headset, he paused for a moment, then ran to the sidelines to ask the fourth official, checked the replay on the camera, and then went directly to the West Ham United manager to show him a red card.

The entire West Ham United team was stunned. What happened? Why was the manager suddenly shown a red card?

The most confused were the players on the field; they had no idea what was happening.

The audience still saw it; that splashing water gesture was indeed disgusting.

Avran Grant was furious: "Fuck, what do you mean? What did I do wrong? You're sending me off the court?"

Referee: "You just sprayed water in front of the live TV cameras, which disgusted viewers worldwide. You are damaging the international image of the Premier League, and that's the reason for your dismissal. Do you have any objections?"

Avran Grant: "You, you guys, f***ing, what kind of bullshit is this? It's clearly home-field advantage."

Referee: "I'm warning you, don't spread rumors. If you do, I will sue you for defamation."

Avran Grant: "*&；%￥￥#@！~！@##￥%。"

At this point, his assistant coach rushed over and carried Avran Grant toward the players' tunnel; arguing any further at this point was pointless.

The farce is over, but the West Ham United players are bewildered. How are they going to play next? A gloomy mood hangs over everyone.

Fortunately, their assistant coach, Zeljko Petrovic, returned shortly afterward and calmed everyone down.

Zheliko Petrovic never expected that he would be temporarily in charge of the head coach's command after only three league games this season. Somewhat excited, he started a series of erratic actions, shouting from the sidelines that this person should run this way and that person should run that way.

Then the players on the field started running around aimlessly.

The result was that in the 20th minute, Zhang Kuang received the ball on the left wing, cut inside, attracted the attention of three defenders, and then passed the ball to Rooney who had made a run forward.

Rooney received the ball at the edge of the penalty area, adjusted himself, and then unleashed a powerful shot.

The ball hit the crossbeam and bounced back.

Berbatov burst out of the crowd and unleashed a powerful shot at the ball.

The ball went into the net.

2: 0.

In the 21st minute, with Manchester United leading by two goals, Berbatov excitedly attempted a passionate knee slide, but got stuck halfway down and his head fell directly into the grass.

Before he could react, Zhang Kuang and Rooney rushed over and piled on top of him, forming a human pyramid.

"Fuck, shit, you guys—uh, ah—group—ah, stop pressing—son of a bitch—ah!"

Martin: "G0000000000000000000AL!"

He Wei: "Goal! Manchester United scores again, 2-0. It's a pity that Zhang Kuang gave up an assist."

Xu Yang: "It's all Rooney's fault for shooting so skillfully that it hit the crossbar."

Rooney and his arrogance are also frustrating.

Zhang Kuang: "Brother, it's not that I didn't want to help you, it's that I did help you but you weren't up to par."

Rooney: "Bro, is it because you haven't taken me out to pick up girls in ages? I haven't been able to get any girls, so I've been a bit out of it and haven't been eating the cake you're offering."

Zhang Kuang: "Is that so? With the competition so busy right now, where am I supposed to take you to pick up girls? Why don't you just go back to your girlfriend? I've always thought prostitutes are prettier and have better figures than most ordinary women."

Rooney: "Ah, I was just saying, I've been seeing that new girl at the brothel on the street next to ours these past few days, she's so good-looking—"

Zhang Kuang: "Damn, so you already had someone in mind. If you want a girlfriend, just go get one. Why all the fuss?"

"You two, the game's starting, what are you whispering about?"

In the 40th minute, Zhang Kuang provided another assist.

He received the ball on the left wing, facing a double-team from Kovac and Upson. Zhang Kuang didn't panic; instead, he used his body to shield the ball and waited for his teammates to make their runs.

Rooney made a run down the right flank into the penalty area, with Berbatov providing support from the center.

Zhang Kuang accurately predicted Rooney's running route and delivered a precise through ball that passed between two defenders, finding Rooney precisely.

Rooney unleashed a powerful shot, and the ball swished through the net.

3: 0.

Rooney scores after a frantic assist.

After scoring, Rooney clenched his fists like a bear and roared to the sky.

"I finally scored!"

When Zhang Kuang ran over to celebrate, he hugged Zhang Kuang tightly.

"Brother, you've made two assists in a row. I finally didn't let you down."

"Let go, let go, you fucking disgusting person—"

The first half ended with the score tied at 3-0.

In the second half, in the 60th minute, Ferguson substituted Zhang Kuang with Owen. Zhang Kuang was substituted not because of his poor performance, but because the outcome of the game was no longer in doubt.

In the 58th minute, Zhang Kuang single-handedly dribbled from Manchester United's half all the way through West Ham's half, and then curled a shot into the far corner from outside the penalty area.

4:0

This goal resembled the one he scored in Auxerre, where he dribbled past five players and passed the ball to himself three seconds later.

Unfortunately, this play wasn't as exciting as the other one, because West Ham's defense posed no threat to him. He dribbled past his opponents with ease, and there wasn't the same adrenaline rush as passing the ball to himself three seconds later.

He almost scored, but he did score!

So, just two minutes after his goal, he was substituted. Martin even joked, "Huh, what's going on? Zhang from China was performing very well on the field. He didn't seem tired or anything was wrong. Why did Ferguson substitute him? And he brought on a striker instead. What's the point of this substitution?"

Rob: "Could it be that he doesn't want the Chinese player to steal too much of the spotlight? Or is he deliberately suppressing his abilities? Or is he giving Irving enough time to play and maintain his form?"

Martin: "This is an interesting topic. Perhaps a more gossipy newspaper would report: 'Zhang Gang, a Chinese player, joins Manchester United, suspected of having a falling out with the manager and being suppressed.'"

Rob: "Hehe, I'm sure some media outlets will be interested in this."

In fact, even before the game ended, the entire media circle began to discuss this phenomenon: Zhang Kuang was in such a hot state, and there was no injury or lack of physical strength, so why was he substituted off the field?

Of course, this is just off-stage talk.

On the pitch: When Zhang Kuang left the field, the entire Old Trafford fanbase rose to their feet and applauded. The applause lasted for almost a minute until he walked to the bench and sat down.

He waved to the stands, then draped a towel over himself and sat down.

Ultimately, the score remained unchanged.

Manchester United defeated West Ham United 4-0 at home, achieving their third consecutive win at the start of the Premier League season.

Outrageous stats: two goals and two assists, scoring in three consecutive matches, for a total of six goals and four assists in three matches.

Is this data alarming?

That must be terrifying. He's currently in a league of his own on the top scorer list with 6 goals, at the top of the leaderboard.

He's also in a league of his own on the assist charts, with 4 assists.

The second-highest scorer is Drogba with 4 goals, while the second-highest assist provider is Malouda with 3 assists.

Zhang Kuang alone topped both the scorer and assist charts. Isn't that terrifying?

So when Zhang Yang stood in front of the backdrop, holding the champagne for Man of the Game, giving an interview—wait, did Sky Sports change their reporter this time? It's a sexy and hot woman.

Zhang Kuang: "You're a new reporter for Sky Sports? I've never heard of Sky Sports having a female reporter."

The female reporter said, "Hello Zhang, I'm Jessica Hatchett, a newly hired intern reporter at Sky Sports. I'm a recent graduate with a degree in journalism from Oxford Brookes University."

Zhang Kuang gave a thumbs up: "Sky Sports has finally figured it out."

Jessica smiled and blushed slightly, then she tidied her hair.

Jessica: "Shall we begin?"

Zhang Kuang nodded.

Jessica: "Zhang, congratulations on winning Player of the Game twice in a row. Do you have any secrets to winning Player of the Game? And you're currently leading both the top scorer and top assist leaderboards. What are your thoughts on that?"

Zhang Kuang: "There's really only one trick to winning Man of the Match: score the most goals and provide the most assists. Of course, I'm referring to attacking players. Midfielders and defenders are a different story."

As for topping both lists, isn't that expected? I said I'm here to make history, so being number one is the bare minimum.

Jessica greatly admired this incredibly handsome and arrogant guy.

Jessica: "What are your thoughts on this match? How would you rate your opponent?"

Zhang Kuang: "West Ham United had a bit of an accident, so they didn't play well in this game. I won't stop underestimating them because I don't know if they'll be a completely different team next time we meet. After all, there are no weak teams in the Premier League, and their loss today was just a momentary lapse in concentration."

Jessica: "Okay, thank you for the interview. We hope you can get the Player of the Game again next time."

Zhang Kuang nodded: "Okay, then I'll have to treat you to a meal next time."

Jessica blushed immediately: "We're still live streaming, don't talk about personal things."

Zhang Kuang smiled wildly at the camera, his face beaming with radiance and handsomeness, truly endearing.

Arrogant: "What does this have to do with live streaming? Does it mean I'm not allowed to flirt with girls on camera?"

Jessica: "Huh?"

She hadn't expected Zhang Kuang to be so direct. When she was at a loss, Zhang Kuang shoved the bottle of champagne into Jessica's hand.

arrogantly: "Here you go, see you next time."

After saying that, Zhang Kuang turned and left.

Jessica was left looking shocked and reluctant.

Meanwhile, in the Sky Sports studio, host Andy Gray and guest Jamie Redknapp were both whistling.

Andy: "Who gave the station director this idea? It worked really well, but this young lady is probably going to be snatched away by Zhang from China."

Jamie: "Oh no, what a beautiful girl. I'm not racist, but I'm a little sad to see her go."

Andy: "Xuan, Jamie, don't have bad thoughts."

Jamie: "Okay, this is a sports program."

Andy: "Ha, you still remember this is a sports program? Oh my god, we've been led astray by this smooth-talking Chinese guy. Come on, let's take a look at the post-match interview with the head coach."

After the match, Ferguson was once again asked about his arrogance at the press conference.

Reporter: "Sir, Zhang Kuang has scored and assisted again. He has six goals and four assists in three games. Do you think he can win the Premier League Golden Boot this season?"

Ferguson smiled.

"It's only been three rounds, it's too early to say this, but he has the ability. His goal-scoring efficiency is very high, and he's not the kind of striker who can only finish off easy chances; he's a super striker who can create opportunities for himself and his teammates."

"Compared to top strikers like Drogba, Torres, and Rooney, who do you think is stronger, Zhang Kuang or Zhang Kuang?"

Ferguson shook his head.

"They are all excellent strikers, each with their own unique characteristics. Zhang Kuang is still very young, and he has a lot to learn. But he has one advantage: he is younger than all of them. Youth means unlimited possibilities."

Reporter: "Then why did you substitute him in the 60th minute? I heard you had a big conflict with him?"

Ferguson shrugged: "Wow, this is starting to cause trouble? I took him out because I didn't want to overuse him. He's still young, only 19. Pushing him to his limits too early will affect the length of his career."

"What are you thinking? Zhang has only been at Manchester United for less than two months, and I'm already having a conflict with him?"

Reporter: "What are your thoughts on today's match? How would you rate your opponent?"

Ferguson: "West Ham United had a bit of an accident today, so they lost their composure."

Reporter: "What do you think about their head coach Avran Grant spitting water into the live broadcast camera?"

Ferguson: "I believe it was unintentional. His team had conceded a goal and he was furious. The camera happened to be on his face at that moment, which led to his momentary lapse in judgment."

Okay, he's here. You can ask him. I'm leaving now. Goodbye.
