The team formation also changed from 442 to 4231.

The Spaniard also made substitution adjustments, replacing a defender while replacing a high center with the intention of attacking Genk's defense, so there may not be a chance to equalize the score.

2:0, Wang Feng scored another goal, and Genk almost sealed the victory!

The Spaniards looked at the visiting team members who were running to celebrate, with a look of confusion in their eyes. Why did they concede the ball again? Is there a chance to win? Their fighting spirit and confidence were destroyed by this goal, and all they thought about was that they couldn't win this game, and they still had a chance in the next game.

After the game started again, the Spaniard's offensive slowed down, and Genk's defense also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to play steadily. In the 87th minute, Genk once again tore apart the opponent's defense through continuous inversions.

Karl Bass in the midfield passed it to Wang Feng on the right. Wang Feng took advantage of the situation and made a pass. Barry jumped up and shook his head to attack the goal.

At the press conference after the game, Spaniards coach Wilbur Baumbach praised Wang Feng: "His technical level and competitive state are very good. It is hard to believe that Wang Feng is a 17-year-old youth player. Our There's nothing the defense can do about him and I think he's more than capable of playing in the big five leagues."

Genk coach Aimee Antonis also praised Wang Feng: "Wang's role cannot be ignored. He is a sharp knife on our front line, and the opponent will pay the price if he is not careful."

Domestic CCTV was also very happy. After they got the video, they invited famous commentators to explain it overnight, and then broadcast it on the sports channel the next day.

The watching fans applauded Wang Feng's performance one after another. They left messages on the forum and said that Wang Feng's performance seemed to have surpassed the senior players who had studied abroad.

"Wang Feng's explosive power and foot skills are also great," a netizen lamented, "I think he is much better than some international players. Genk's sharp attack is inseparable from Wang Feng's performance."

Yang Chen's performance in Frankfurt this year is not outstanding. Compared with last season, his current appearances and goals have shown a cliff-like decline. Fan Zhiyi, Sun Jihai and others are not forwards, so their expressiveness and progress on the court are not outstanding. The ball is limited.

So everyone is focusing on Wang Feng, hoping that he will become a banner on the front line of Chinese football. Judging from this development, after the end of this season, Wang Feng's entry into the five major leagues is almost a certainty.

What is even more gratifying is that Wang Feng was selected as the 2000 Asian Footballer of the Year by virtue of his outstanding performance in the last season and this season. The AFC contacted Wang Feng's agent Francisco Balmond, hoping He can attend the awards ceremony held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at the end of November.

"You will be the youngest Asian Footballer of the Year!" Balmond said excitedly on the phone: "You were nominated earlier, and the main competitor is Nawaf Timya from Saudi Arabia. Especially, this year is the Asian Cup year after all, and Saudi Arabia's performance is also remarkable."

"But Saudi Arabia's failure to win the championship was a big loss. Your superb performance was continuous, so you finally won with a slight advantage." Balmond revealed the details. The winner would have been announced at the awards ceremony , but the AFC was afraid that Wang Feng would not be willing to come to the scene, so it notified privately in advance.

"This is very helpful to expand your influence in Asia and increase your commercial value. I have confirmed with Genk that the game in those few days was the last round of the Europa League. You locked the first place in the group ahead of time, so The club has given you permission to take time off and they want you to win the award."

Now that Balmond has confirmed everything, Wang Feng will proceed according to his arrangement. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

In the 15th round of the Ligue 1, Genk played against Saint-Truden at home. Wang Feng was still very active in the game. In the 31st minute, Wang Feng received a pass from midfielder Barry on the right and used a human ball to score when the defenders arrived. Get out, then miter the restricted area.

Wang Feng's attack speed was too fast, and St. Turden's defense was a little flustered for a while, so Wang Feng decisively seized this opportunity, volleyed with the outside of his left foot, and broke through the gate of Gavin Muller's handle.

Wang Feng was replaced shortly after the opening of the second half. The head coach Antonis wanted him to rest more in consideration of his going to Asia. In the end, the score of 1:0 was maintained until the end, and Genk continued to be in the standings. Beat Anderlecht.

After the battle, Wang Feng flew to Kuala Lumpur, where Balmond was already waiting for him. At the same time, CCTV also decided to broadcast the award ceremony live, because Wang Feng is a popular candidate for the Asian Footballer of the Year, and there are several nominations from China.

The award ceremony of the AFC is relatively simple, not as grand as the World Footballer. Before the ceremony, there is a red carpet and the like. After everyone is seated, it will officially begin.

Wang Feng's position is arranged in the middle area of ​​the first row. Next to him are Tim Yatt of Saudi Arabia and Shunsuke Nakamura of Japan. They are also popular candidates for the Asian Footballer of the Year. Wang Feng and them are not very familiar with each other. They nodded to each other.

Although Wang Feng is not timid on the football field with tens of thousands of people, it feels very awkward to sit here in a suit. In his opinion, there is a feeling of a child pretending to be an adult forcibly, and the awards are announced one by one. At that time, he only hoped to finish it sooner.

It is worth mentioning that besides Wang Feng, there are two other Chinese players who have been selected to the best team in Asia, namely Jiang Jin and Fan Zhiyi.
