In the far East, countless fans watched the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco on television, and burst into laughter when they saw this comical scene unfolding before them.
As one of them, Zhai Tianlin, who was eagerly anticipating Lei Ming's performance, jumped and shouted excitedly at home. The downstairs neighbors, a couple who had already prepared earplugs, exchanged a helpless look: "Hey, this young man upstairs is great in every way, except he has an attack every weekend. Luckily, it only lasts about an hour. Honey, just hang in there a little longer and you'll be fine!"
"Coward! I told you to go up and confront him, why didn't you dare go?"
"Hey, it's not worth it. It only happens once a week. There's no need to ruin our neighborly relations!"
While overjoyed, Zhai Tianlin didn't forget the most important thing tonight. He took out his phone and dialed his subordinate: "Anqi, let's begin. Tonight, let everyone know that our Kelyon sparkling water's other mysterious spokesperson is none other than Lei Ming, who is far away in Ligue 1."
"Okay, Mr. Zhai."
Almost simultaneously, all the previously designated partners received promotional messages from Zongsheng Beverage Co., Ltd.
And we immediately placed advertisements for it.
In the week prior, the promotional videos for Zongsheng's new product were almost entirely advertisements filmed by Wang Yibo. Although they gained recognition from many young people, they fell far short of their expectations.
Tonight, with PSG facing Monaco, Lei Ming had an outstanding performance on the field, appearing alongside Mbappe in front of the camera. ML, what an interesting combination! One can imagine that after this match, his fame will rise to a new level. When else would you like to step up your game?
They've been holding back this ad for two whole weeks, and this is exactly what they've been waiting for.
At the same time, new advertisements for Kelyon sparkling water appeared on major video platforms and portal websites, catching the eye of many people.
In the advertisement, the handsome Lei Ming stands panting in front of the goal. The scoreboard clearly shows the score of the match: 4-4. It's a breathtaking penalty shootout. If they can just hold onto the last goal, the pure gold championship trophy in the distance will belong to them.
The diverse reactions from countless fans all indicate that this penalty kick is very important.
He couldn't resist taking a sip of Kelyon sparkling water, and immediately felt much better.
He took a deep breath, watched the opposing player move, and then lunged forward.
He judged the direction correctly and steadily blocked the ball in his large palm.
In an instant, the entire stadium seemed to awaken into a battleground, with wind and rain howling, and the excited fans rushed into the stadium, tossing him into the air.
"We are the champions!"
"Thank you, Kelyon sparkling water, you are my lucky water!"
A 30-second ad may not seem long, but its quality rivals that of a blockbuster sports film.
...
The Princes Park stadium.
He felt very unhappy, extremely unhappy, watching the young Monaco players celebrating their goals so freely in front of him!
Especially that goalkeeper number 1, whose shot missed, giving the opponent an opportunity.
After initially being underestimated, experiencing headaches, and feeling overwhelmed, Cavani became increasingly calm as the match time dwindled.
Recalling every encounter with the opponent, I tried hard to find their weaknesses.
With his incredible reaction speed and amazing emergency save ability, he had to admit that this young goalkeeper was very strong, even stronger than his own goalkeeper!
Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Trapp: "Are you being polite?!"
He knew that he had probably encountered a rising star, but that was absolutely not a reason for him to give up.
Over the years, he has defeated many formidable players, including Lehmann, Cech, Buffon, and Neuer. He would never admit that he would lose to a greenhorn.
His numerous goals throughout his football career have given him enough confidence that he doesn't care about any goalkeeper; all he cares about is scoring goals.
After the match restarted, PSG became noticeably more anxious, and Emery brought on another attacking full-back, determined to make a breakthrough in the final minutes.
This is the Parc des Princes, their home ground. Their market value far surpasses that of their opponents, and they will not allow Monaco to leave unscathed here.
PSG wanted to counterattack, while on the other side, Monaco's players, at the coach's signal, intentionally slowed down the pace again.
In the 83rd minute, Monaco players, who were pressing forward, suddenly started playing a game of passing the ball around on the opponent's wing. Fabinho, Moutinho, and Bernardo Silva gave PSG a full demonstration of what perfect teamwork looks like.
This drew a lot of angry boos and jeers from the PSG fans on the sidelines.
"You bastards! Is this how you play football?!"
"Monaco's monkeys, die!"
"Go back to your little place, this is not a place for you to run wild!"
At the same time, the disgruntled fans threw whatever they were holding at the field, as if they wanted to crush their opponents.
Despite the anger of the PSG fans, Fabinho remained unmoved. When he had the ball at the corner flag, he held onto it tightly, refusing to let the opponent touch it. This angered PSG defender Marquinhos so much that he decisively knocked the opponent off the field, finally ending the fight.
Amid the players' heated argument, the referee promptly ran over and showed Marquinhos a yellow card.
The Monaco players smiled.
Not only did they successfully buy time, but they also got the opposing defender a yellow card – worth it!
Time was ticking away, but the score remained 0-2. Clearly, time was running out for Paris Saint-Germain.
From the coaching staff to all the players, everyone at PSG was getting increasingly impatient. The head coach was frequently yelling something from the sidelines, furious about the referee's decision.
The Monaco players are trash; they play such ugly football, they don't deserve to be in Ligue 1!
But among them, one person's eyes grew increasingly determined, and even filled with joy.
Just now, he witnessed the trick performed by the Monaco players, which suddenly sparked a brilliant idea in his mind. He slapped himself for being such a pig-headed person, how could he not have thought of this move?
Monaco gets a corner kick. Moutinho takes the corner, and there's chaos in the PSG penalty area. Unfortunately, Monaco wins the ball, but Thomas Lima misjudges the power and heads it wide.
Taking advantage of the break, Cavani ran over to Di Maria and Lucas and whispered something to each other.
Clearly, they haven't given up; they are still seeking a breakthrough.
