Chapter 193 The national team is still the Olympic team
61 points, 60 points, 56 points!There are still nine rounds in the league, and the above three numbers are the points of the top three teams in La Liga!Not to mention tying the record of the Cruyff era. Barcelona, ​​which has won nine consecutive victories, has accumulated 53 points behind it. After Real Madrid and Valencia, and Real Madrid and Real Sociedad in the 2001-2002 season, this season's La Liga has finally entered the era of coexistence!

Among these four teams, the most eye-catching is undoubtedly the Mallorca team. After occupying the top spot in the first half of the season, they showed a certain degree of decline in the second half of the season. Like last year, they will only be able to play the role of sniper in the final stage, but after defeating the two strong teams of Deportivo and Valencia in a row, they tenaciously caught up again, and in the following games, they only Real Madrid, a traditional strong team, is left. Even the most demanding people can't deny that without the drag of European competitions, Mallorca, which has no distractions, has become one of the teams that may finally win this season!

As if to verify the above statement, in the 28th round of La Liga on the 29th, Mallorca beat the bottom-ranked Murcia 4-0 in an away game, and Delgado, who came on as a substitute for Garcia Scored twice, Eto'o and Ibagaza scored the remaining two goals, Pei Wei made one assist, but instigated three goals, after this game, his assists in the league It has reached fifteen times, tied with Ronaldinho and only once less than Riquelme.

Eto'o's goal in this game brings his total to [-] goals, but he still ranks second in the scorer list thanks to Ronaldo's brace against Sevilla.

While Mallorca was victorious, the other two teams also won. Real Madrid beat Sevilla 5-1 at home, and Valencia did not suffer from being defeated by Mallorca. They defeated Racing Santander with a big score of 3:0, but when Barcelona was a guest at Betis, the game was postponed due to heavy rain, and the ranking of the top four remained unchanged.

**************************************
BJ, Chinese Football Association Headquarters.

"Let's decide on the plan of the league first." Fang Yatao raised his head and looked at the crowd around him: "Everyone will study after you go down. If you have any new ideas, come and tell me, and we can discuss it later."

The crowd dispersed slowly, Fang Yatao breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his tired face. Several of his ideas were successfully implemented, and the recruitment of talents in market development and management for the society was also going smoothly. The response from the society was good, and most of the clubs also expressed their support. In the face of the three fires burned by his new official, few of the old and young in the Football Association dared to raise objections.

"Only when there are fair rules of the game can the league be on track, and when the league is on track, fans will be attracted to the stadium to watch the game. The more fans who watch the game on site, the higher the club's profit, and the higher the club's profit, It will increase investment in the league, and the league will become more prosperous... This is called a virtuous circle, why don't they understand?"

"This is only the first step. After making those clubs adapt to the fair rules of the game, the next step is to form a professional football league. How to distribute the specific benefits depends entirely on the clubs themselves. The Football Association only needs to grasp the general direction and be responsible for external affairs. Just like the production responsibility system, the land is still the same land, the people are still the same people, why the wealth created is so different? Sometimes, the Football Association really doesn’t need to do so many things..."

The assistant's call woke Fang Yatao out of his contemplation: "Xiao He, what's the matter?"

"Chairman Luo came to see you." Xiao He said respectfully.

"Let him in."

Luo Gang, 46 years old, a former Chinese national footballer, went to the University of Birmingham to study for two years after retiring. Unlike other players, he studied sports management. After returning to China, he joined the General Administration of Sports. This time he was transferred at the same level. Come, can be regarded as a person with both theory and practice.

"Old Luo, please sit down, Xiao He, and pour tea for Chairman Luo."

The tall and tall Luo Gang had a cheerful personality: "No need, Xiao He, you go out first, I have something to say to Chairman Fang."

Xiao He went out obediently. Fang Yatao stood up, poured a cup of tea for Luo Gang himself, and said with a smile, "Old Luo, what's the matter? He's very mysterious, just tell me if you have something to do!"

"I'm here to ask, should the punishments against Pei Wei and the others in Europe be revoked now?" Luo Gang asked seriously.

"My God!" Fang Yatao patted his forehead heavily: "I have been busy with the league affairs during this period, and I have forgotten about it! Of course it must be cancelled! And a press conference will be held to inform fans all over the country Announcing this matter! This is also adding color to the image of our Football Association!"

"But some people think that doing this is discrediting the Football Association." Luo Gang said pointedly.

"Superficial! Stupid!" Fang Yatao said mercilessly: "If you are wrong, you are wrong. You must be brave enough to take responsibility! If you don't even have the courage to admit your mistakes, but instead try to cover them up, you will be discrediting the Football Association! You are responsible for this matter, let fans across the country know that our Football Association is not the kind of department that dare not even admit mistakes, we are responsible!"

"Okay! Leave it to me!" Luo Gang was very pleased. He felt that Fang Yatao was indeed a very courageous leader, and then he asked another question: "Have you considered letting them return to the team? Should we let them enter the Olympic team or the national team?"

"You mean..." Fang Yatao asked a little puzzled.

"There will be a World Cup qualifier on the 31st, and there will be an Olympic qualifier on the 16th next month. Which team shall we call them into?"

"What do Ali Han and He Jin think?" Fang Yatao asked suddenly.

Shen Zhi's reputation was ruined in that Football Association storm, and he could no longer gain a foothold in the national team after instructing Ou Yong to play match-fixing. When no coach dared to take over the mess of the National Olympic Team, Fang Yatao went to Chongqing to persuade He Jin Returning to the position of the Olympic team again, He Jin is not the kind of person who cares about everything. Knowing that the Olympic team is basically hopeless, he resolutely took on this heavy responsibility. , A few days ago, they defeated the menacing Iranian team 3:1 at home, and won the first victory of the Chinese Olympic team after the start of the top nine games.

"Ali Han only wanted to call in Hu Yong and Wu Qi, but He Jin's attitude was very strange. He said... Forget it, let him talk to you by himself."

"He Jin is here too?" Fang Yatao was a little surprised. Now He Jin should be leading the Olympic team in Chengdu for training. Why did he come to BJ?

The door was pushed open and He Jin walked in.

"Do you have any ideas?" Fang Yatao asked, knowing that He Jin had come all the way, he must have something to tell him.

"I hope Pei Wei and the seven of them can all be called into the national team." He Jin was the first to speak before he could sit down after entering the door.

"Why?" Fang Yatao was a little strange. Logically speaking, the opponent of the national team in the match on the 31st is the Hong Kong team of China. It is a strong team like Iran and South Korea. No matter how you look at it, the Olympic team needs to call up a few of them.

"Do you think I don't want them to return to the National Olympics?" He Jin said with a wry smile: "With them, I am confident that I will win all the next three games! But, I have to admit, even if If we won these three games, our chances of qualifying will still not exceed 20.00%!"

"Now that three rounds have passed, we only have 4 points, while South Korea, the top team in the group, has already accumulated 9 points. We are five points away from them. Even if we win them at home, the gap is still two points. We Losing two points against Malaysia is too fatal!"

"Is it possible that the South Korean team was tied or even defeated by the Iranian team? Wouldn't we still have a chance?" Fang Yatao couldn't help asking.

"The Iranian team was defeated by the South Korean team 1-0 at their home court. Could they still beat the South Korean team in the away game? Besides, they have to play against us before they play against the Korean team. After losing to us, they will not be able to win at all. There is no chance of qualifying. Can you expect such a team to fight hard in Seoul and South Korea? Instead of letting them participate in such a game that is doomed to failure, it is better to let them go to the national team earlier! Even if they are familiar with the coach's style of play Cooperate tacitly with other teammates, they must be the main force in the next year's World Cup, we have to think about the future!"

"You're right." Fang Yatao was persuaded by He Jin: "But why does Ali Han only want to call Hu Yong and Wu Qi?"

He Jin sighed: "Ali Han is a very stubborn coach. His tactics cannot be changed by others. What he is used to is a shallow dish formation with double midfielders in the midfield. Hu Yong is exactly the type he admires. He has a tough style. Strong physical fitness is just the right pawn in his tactics, and Wu Qi also suits his appetite, but it is not so good for the others. The midfielder he hopes must return to defense. He definitely doesn't like Jun, and Pei Wei has no place, which is a big loss for the Chinese team, which has few outstanding players!"

"Indeed, after Ali Han took office, he did not bring any changes to the national team. Instead, he almost used up the old foundation left by Milucci. There is really nothing reassuring about the current national team. If If the national team is still the way it is now, even if it successfully enters the second stage of the competition this year, the chances of winning the competition against veteran teams such as Japan, South Korea, Iran, and Saudi Arabia are really slim." Luo Gang He agreed, and his professional vision immediately caught Fang Yatao's attention.

"You mean...a coaching change?" Fang Yatao asked cautiously.

"Of course not." Luo Gang denied this meaning: "Not to mention that Ali Han has not made any major mistakes since he led the team, and he has also achieved relatively good results in a series of warm-up matches. Sai also won, there is no reason for us to dismiss him like this."

"Then what should we do?" Fang Yatao was a little anxious: "It will be too late when he makes a mistake! The upcoming national team games are very important. We can't afford to lose in the World Cup qualifiers and the Asian Cup!" Ali The "historical problems" left over from the Yan Wenqiang era in the Han Dynasty are really difficult to solve.

"That's why I proposed to call them all into the national team." He Jin also had a headache: "It is not a problem to win the game against the Hong Kong team. The key is to change Ali Han's prejudice against Pei Wei and Zhu Jun. My The idea is to let the Football Association put pressure on Ali Han, so that he must call Pei Wei and the others into the national team. different."

"It's really not possible, that's the only way to go." Fang Yatao agreed with him, "I will arrange someone to notify Ali Han, but He Jin, is it really okay without them? The national team and the Olympic team The games don't conflict."

"Zhu Jun, Zhang Qi, Li Min and the others are easy to talk about. I will call them in depending on the situation. After all, their teams are at the same level now. It doesn't matter if they play a few games less, but Pei Wei... the next few games of the Olympic team The time of the game is the most intense time of La Liga. He has been flying back and forth between China and Spain a while ago and it is enough to be tired. In addition, the injury is just right. I am afraid that he will participate in such a dense game. It will make his old injury relapse, and it will not only be him who suffers, but also the overall interests of Chinese football."

"Well. Now that you have said that, I respect your opinion!" Fang Yatao nodded, and then stared into He Jin's eyes: "Stop saying these things, He Jin, I want to ask you a question. After the team's mission is over, are you interested in joining the national team and becoming Ali Han's assistant?" Fang Yatao asked meaningfully.

"This..." He Jin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slyly: "It's hard to say, I was planning to get married, but I have postponed the start of the wedding because of the Olympic team. It’s too late, let’s talk about the specific situation later!”

"Hey, I wonder if using the Asian Cup as a wedding gift will add color to your wedding?" Fang Yatao said to himself.

"Hey..." The two smiled at each other, showing the smile of a little fox meeting an old fox!
