Chapter 272 Champion
"In recent years, the German youth team has been very popular." Ding Yu asked the two seniors: "What do you think about this?"

"It's normal. In the late 90s, they suffered enough from the lack of reserves. If your boss hadn't dug Ballack out of the German regional league, given him enough training opportunities in the Chinese Super League, and then transferred him to Leverkusen, I'm afraid they wouldn't even have a world-class star after Matthaus and Klinsmann retired..." Xu Genbao shrugged and said: "Those who have learned the lesson and don't learn the lesson are fools. Although the Germans are old-fashioned, they are definitely not stupid."

In 95, Pei Wei poached the only Michael Ballack from the German Amateur League and became a legend in the world football. A team that was in China's second-tier league at the time poached the only world-class star in Germany in the early [-]th century. g.

All German fans will never forget how German football had no successors between 96 and 2002-the 28-year-old Bierhoff was actually called a rookie!Although this has become a late-blooming masterpiece in world football, it has also made German football the object of ridicule by others. Since then, the German Football Association has begun to work hard to cultivate the next generation.

Germany, as a veteran football powerhouse, still has its heritage, so it only took a few years for their next generation to start shocking the world - winning the European Championships in three age groups in Europe in just over a year is just the beginning, and their next goals are the World Youth Championship, the Olympics and... the World Cup.

Although there seems to be a blowout in the world football talents at this age, they still won all the championships that can be won in Europe, eliminated the Brazilian youth team and entered the final of the World Youth Championship. The next thing they have to do is to embrace the champion of the World Youth Championship.

"Unfortunately, we won't let them do what they want." Ding Yu shrugged his shoulders: "It's already reached this point, and it would be too hypocritical to say that you don't think about the championship... Well, I admit that I came here for the championship from the beginning, but no one knows."

Chi Shangbing and Xu Genbao looked at Ding Yu, and then laughed at the same time.

"Okay, two old seniors, of course it will be very good to win the championship. If I win this championship, I will be the second coach after Hiddink to lead a national team to win the world championship. At the same time, I will also be the first local coach to win the world championship... This is very tempting, but for me, now is not the time to think about it."

Chi Shangbing and Xu Genbao continued to look at Ding Yu without saying a word, seeming to doubt whether this young colleague would really be able to do what he said - but seeing how he can casually talk about the importance of this championship, maybe... he can really do it.

******************************************
The final will be three days later, that is, on October [-]th—this is the last day of the World Youth Championship. It is estimated that Leeds head coach McAllister, who is currently in dire straits, did not expect the Chinese youth team to enter the final—Delphi has already returned to the team to report, and Long Bisheng has not yet returned.

The final will be preceded by a semi-final between the youth teams of the two most World Cup-winning nations, five-time World Cup winner Brazil and four-time World Cup winner Italy.

If this match was the final, it would definitely attract everyone's attention. As for now...the third and fourth finals are definitely not as eye-catching as the semi-finals. This is an undeniable truth.

If the leaders of the two teams, Balotelli and Pato, are both on the field, it will still be interesting. After all, these two geniuses of the same age play for Inter Milan and AC Milan, the two biggest rivals in the same city. Every year, the Milan derby will collide with bright sparks. What kind of performance will these two main forwards who are recognized as the future Milan duo have in the World Youth Championship...

It's a pity that this scene is impossible to happen, because now is an important moment in the league's opening, and the Milan duo are dissatisfied because two talented youngsters who can play the main force have been transferred to play in the World Youth Championship. Do we still need to send our geniuses to play in an unimportant game like the third or fourth place finals?So after the negotiations between the two clubs, Balotelli and Pato both sat on the bench of their respective teams, which made the two clubs of Milan very satisfied.

The dissatisfaction may be the Egyptian side. After all, without these two stars, the excitement of the third and fourth finals will be greatly reduced, but so what?These wealthy clubs are already giving face to their main players to participate in the World Youth Championship...

In the end, the Brazilian youth team was still superior, and won the final victory 3-[-] in this civilian final of the third and fourth place, achieving the No.[-] result.

Next, all eyes were on the next day's final - any final is always the most eye-catching.

******************************************
"How is everyone resting? How is your physical recovery?" Ding Yu finished all the players in the last training session.

After the match with the Italian youth team, the Chinese youth team immediately rushed from Port Said to Cairo, the final venue. There was only one reason. Since they had one more day of rest than their opponents in the final, they had to maximize this advantage. Going to the final venue one day earlier would allow them to have an extra day of rest and adapt to the venue one day earlier.

The Chinese youth team, who arrived in Cairo overnight, was almost exhausted. After playing a game that was exhausting both physically and mentally, it is not human to travel long distances—but they quickly felt the benefits of doing so. The day before the final, their physical fitness has almost recovered. Tomorrow's game, they will be able to play in the strongest state.

Hearing Ding Yu's question, the players all said that they were in good condition, and even killed a few tigers, even if they came N times a night, they would not change their faces...

"Very good. Since you have recovered so well, you have to perform well in tomorrow's game. When you win the championship, it's time for you to really celebrate... Speaking of which, you are really worthless. You are so happy after winning a semi-final. Some people even cried. If you win the championship, why not cry to death?" Ding Yu said with a smile.

The players burst into laughter. Long Bisheng scratched his head in embarrassment. He was the only one who cried that day. In fact, he didn’t cry out of excitement, but at first he thought he had missed a penalty, and then saw the ball go into the goal. Given the sudden and huge psychological gap, there were probably not many who didn’t cry—in fact, he was scared to cry.

"Okay, before we think about championships, honors, praise, money, beauties... what kind of mess, the first thing we have to do is to win the championship and runner-up finals... The German youth team is very strong. They won the European championships in three age groups in the past year, but this is meaningless to us, because now that we have reached this point, no matter who the opponent is, we have to beat them... To reach the quarter-finals we have completed the task, but football matches are not just about completing tasks. Now let’s talk about it, among you people, who has won the championship? No matter what kind of championship is fine, except for the previous championship in the domestic youth invitational tournament. Also, the championship of the Asian Youth Championship can’t be counted, because winning this championship is a matter of course for us.”

Zhong Tao raised his hand. He won the league championship once when he was in Yunjia Tianyu. Dalian’s Chen Jian, Niu Ren, and Long Xing also raised their hands. They won the FA Cup. The surroundings also raised their hands. And the league champions of the 05-06 season.

"Very good. Now that we have seven champions, I can say that we already have the heart of a champion." Ding Yu blinked: "There are still eleven people who have not won the championship, but you can rest assured that after tomorrow's game, you will also become veritable champions."

"Yes!" The players waved their fists one after another. They were also looking forward to this scene, especially the players who played in Europe. If they can win the World Youth Championship, their future will be much smoother!

Long Bisheng is also waving his fists among the players. He also has the same desire for this championship. Although he has won two championships in his career, he only played a few times in Naples. Although he became the top scorer in Leeds last season, the League One champion is really hard to win. This World Youth Championship champion is a real world-class champion!
He is also eager to use the championship to prove his strength!That's why he cried with worry after taking the penalty kick.

However, although he valued it, he didn't consider it before taking the penalty kick, so he still scored the penalty kick and helped the China Youth Team enter the final!
What awaits him and the China Youth Team next is the final of the World Youth Championship, the best opportunity for him to prove himself!
"If you want to win the championship, then work hard! Win tomorrow's game! Then we can confidently say that we are the best players in the world at this age!" Ding Yu shouted while the iron was hot.

The players of the China Youth Team collectively howled like wolves.
