Chapter 59
"In the coming weekend, it is likely that a game that will determine the title of the J-League this season will start. The current top-ranked Tokyo FC will go away to challenge the second-ranked Sanfrecce Hiroshima. Tokyo FC is currently only ahead of Sanfrecce Hiroshima Two points, this is a real top battle. If Hiroshima Sanfrecce can beat Tokyo FC, they can overtake the score and rise to the top of the standings. If Tokyo FC can beat Hiroshima Sanfrecce in an away game, they can widen the score gap to 5 points, prepare some guarantees for the upcoming AFC Champions League~~~”

"In the 23rd round of the J-League, Tokyo FC will challenge Sanfrecce Hiroshima away. The first two strikers, this is a direct confrontation between the two~~~”

Ringer has scored seven goals in the last six rounds, and the current number of goals has reached 16, but Sato Hisato is also continuing to score goals. The opponent currently has 17 goals, and Ringer is still one behind.

"The strongest continuous firepower, can Lin Jun continue to score goals and tie the record of consecutive goals scored in the J-League~~~"

The match between Tokyo FC and Sanfrecce Hiroshima will have three major points of interest. One is the battle for the top spot, the other is the battle for the Golden Boot between Ringer and Hisato Sato, and the third is whether Ringer can tie the record for consecutive goals scored in the J-League.

Each of the three major highlights is very eye-catching, so the media began to hype the game before the game even started.

It's rare that Bobovich's big mouth didn't show up, which surprised the media.

In the team's head coach's office, Bobovich was talking to Ringer: "Lin, how are you doing recently?"

"Very good, Mr. Coach." Linger wondered what Bobovich meant by calling him alone.

"You can just call me Ranko, Lin, you have to pay attention to your state, you are the most important player in the team now. At the end of the season, your state will affect the result of our season, whether it is success or failure."

"I'll keep an eye out, Lanco."

"What do you think about the Golden Boot competition hyped up by the media recently and tying the number of consecutive goals scored in the J-League? Do you want to leave some records in the past?"

"If possible, of course I want to leave some records." Recently, the media has been hyping up, and Ringer has also been affected, thinking that breaking a record or something is not bad.

"Anyone wants to prove themselves and make a name for themselves, I know that." Bobovic scratched his own Mediterranean, and continued: "I also know Thomas Croat very well, and I know that he will arrange You give interviews, do some TV shows, I never objected. Because I know, you are the kind of player who has been unknown before, and now you suddenly become famous, you need more attention, you need more influence. Now football Celebrities and movie stars are becoming more and more similar, besides their own level, fame is also very important."

Ringer was still in a daze, what exactly was Bobovich trying to say.

"I have been coaching in Asia for many years, and I have a good understanding of the situation in Asian football. Do you know the award of Asian Footballer?"

Ringer nodded and said, "I know, what's wrong?"

"Last year, the AFC made changes to the selection system of the Asian Footballer. Starting this year, the main selection scope of the Asian Footballer has been reduced, and it has become an Asian football player who plays in Asia. This means that in Europe No matter how good the performance of the players playing there is, it is impossible for them to be selected as the Asian Footballer of the Year."

"Currently, the selection of Asian Footballer of the Year is mainly based on the performance of the World Cup, World Cup qualifiers, Asian Cup, AFC Champions League and major leagues in Asia. There is no World Cup and Asian Cup this year, and the best performers in the World Cup qualifiers are often those Helping European players, so the Asian Footballer can almost only be selected among the players who performed well in the AFC Champions League."

"If you want to quickly improve your reputation, this Asian Footballer is also a good way. You are currently the second place in the AFC Champions League scorer list, and the Brazilian foreign player occupies the first place. As long as you can continue to perform in the AFC Champions League, For example, if you lead your team to the final of the AFC Champions League and continue to be at the top of the AFC Champions League scorer list, then you are the popular candidate for this year's Asian Footballer of the Year."

"If you can lead the team to win the AFC Champions League and the J-League, then no one will be able to compete with you for this award."

Although we don't know the purpose of Bobovich's talk yet, Ringer was indeed moved by him, and it would be nice to get an Asian footballer.

"So I hope you can focus on the overall situation, don't worry about those so-called consecutive scoring records, don't be fooled by the media, and focus on the interests of the team."

"Understood, Lan Ke!" Ringo responded loudly.

※※※

Back in the apartment, Linge checked carefully, and the Asian Footballer's matter was really similar.Ringer didn't pay attention to these before, and he should pay attention to the Golden Globe Awards, who pays attention to an Asian footballer.

In the past, the scope of the selection of the Asian Footballer of the Year was only Asian football players. No matter where you played, as long as you were a football player from a member country of the AFC, so the players who were selected at that time were mainly players who played in Europe.

But every year the AFC presents the awards at the end of November. At that time, the European competitions are in full swing, and European players are unwilling to fly halfway around the world to receive this award.

Maybe come to receive an award and go back, and the main position of the team has already been replaced by others. Who would want to do this.

The AFC has a good face, claiming that those who do not want to attend the award ceremony are disrespectful to the AFC, so they will not award him the award, and this conflict will arise.

Every year, some people who are selected as the Footballer of the Year do not attend the award presentation, and Park Ji-sung, Kagawa Shinji and other stars who have performed very well in Europe have not won the Asian Footballer of the Year. These have become the stains that the AFC has been accused of.

The AFC came up with a way, which is to change the selection rules, leave out the players who play in Europe, and set a best overseas player award for them alone.

In this way, all the selected football players are Asian football players, and they are all close to each other, so there will be no such thing as someone missing the awards ceremony.

So according to the current rules, as long as Ringer makes a difference in the AFC Champions League, he will indeed be the favorite of this year's Asian Footballer of the Year.If you can also perform in the J-League by the way, then there will be an extra point, and it will be sure.

On August 8th, the 25rd round of the J-League, the much-watched top game came. After a week of hype by many media, this game finally came.

However, during the game, there was neither fierce fighting nor heated conflicts. Both teams played calmly and seemed to be very satisfied with the current standings.

The game ended 0:0, no one scored a goal in the Golden Boot battle, Ringer did not tie the record, and the score gap between the two teams did not change. Tokyo FC still leads Hiroshima Sanfrecce by 2 points.

Bobovich's idea is that it is good to continue to lead, there is no need to fight hard, and there is still more than half a month before the quarter-finals of the AFC Champions League will start, and the AFC Champions League is the top priority.

As for Sanfrecce Hiroshima, they believe that after the start of the AFC Champions League, Tokyo FC will definitely lose points, and that is the best time to chase points.Ringer is in good form recently. If he can't win but loses the game, it would be bad if he widens the gap by 5 points.

As a result, the long-hyped top game turned into a tacit ball, and Ringer also followed the coach's arrangement and did not deliberately pursue those bullshit records.

After this disappointing top game, the Japanese Emperor's Cup game came. Tokyo FC's opponent was the J3 team Yokogawa Musashino. knocked out.

Giving up the Emperor's Cup Ringer fully agrees, not only to reduce the team's burden, but also for his personal consideration.Why is he also a Chinese, if he accidentally wins the championship, and the Emperor of Japan comes to present him the award in person, that would be bad, maybe it will become a dark history in the future.

Bobovich's guess also came true. Hiroshima Sanfrecce faced the J2 team Imabari FC at home. They lost the game easily 1:2 and were eliminated. It seems that they are determined to give up other games and prepare to fight Tokyo FC with all their strength. Fight for the league title.

On September 9, in the 1th round of the league, Tokyo FC defeated the mid-range team Yokohama Mariners 24:3 at home, and Ringer scored another goal.

In this round, Hiroshima Sanfrecce was tied 1:1 by Iwata Joy in the away game. Tokyo FC took this opportunity to widen the point gap to 4 points, and there is room for a game buffer.

It is said that Bobovich, who knew the result, laughed for half an hour.He didn't compete with the other party for the first battle, but also because he wanted to be more patient, to see who would make a mistake first.Now that the AFC Champions League is approaching, the opponent made an active mistake, which gave Tokyo FC more room for maneuver. Of course Bobovich is happy.

However, Hiroshima Sanfrecce's only goal was scored by Hisato Sato, and Ringer was still one goal behind him in the scorer list.

After this round, it is also half a month's national team match day.
