Chinese champion

Chapter 56 Gallic Rooster
On the training field, Pei Wei rushed forward with the ball, Zhao Lin made a beautiful tackle from the side, broke the ball, and then drove it far away!
"Good shot!" Pei Wei raised his thumbs up: "Good boy, I haven't seen you for three years. Your defense has improved a lot!"

Zhu Jun ran over and said, "That's right, did you know that Zhao Lin is the first player in our Hubei youth team to play in A!"

"Really?" Pei Wei was a little surprised. In his opinion, although Zhao Lin's strength was good, Zhu Jun, Wu Qi, and Zhong Yan were all stronger than him. Why did he get to A-A first?
Zhu Jun saw Pei Wei's doubts: "You know my problem. I just don't like to defend, so the coach doesn't worry about using me. Wu Qi and Zhong Yan are because of their positions. There are two players in those two positions. Quasi-national footballers, the club dare not let them sit on the bench, Zhao Lin is lucky, what the Wuhan team lacks is a good midfielder, so he was favored by the coach."

Pei Wei suddenly realized: "So it is like this!"

Zhao Lin ran over excitedly at this time, shouting loudly: "Pei Wei, come again!"

Pei Wei shook off the sweating towel: "My boy, I'm not afraid of death. I let you in just now, but this time I shake you so hard that you're looking for your teeth all over the place!"

"Come on, who is afraid of whom!"

He Jin looked at the two running figures with satisfaction. Zhao Lin specially found Pei Wei to help him make up for it during the training of the past few days. Although he could not compare with Hu Yong in terms of offense, Zhao Lin was an excellent player in defense. The role of stalking, coupled with his abundant physical fitness and wide range of running, he can already serve as an excellent defensive barrier.

Although Hu Yong's injury is not yet complete, he doesn't need to worry too much about the position of the midfielder. Now he can rest assured that Hu Yong can heal his injury completely.

The quarterfinals of the World Youth Championship have come out, of which South American teams occupy four of them, Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador and Paraguay, and there are two European teams, France and the Czech Republic qualify, plus Ghana from Africa and Asia from Asia China.

The form of the quarter-finals is like this: Argentina played against the Czech Republic, Brazil played against Ecuador, Ghana played against Paraguay, and China played against France.

The China Youth Team’s journey to the World Youth Championship can be described as easy and then difficult. The three opponents in the group stage are weak, but after entering the semi-finals, they faltered. Chicken France, and even if it can pass the French level, in the half area where the Chinese team is located, there is still the Samba Legion Brazil watching the tiger. It is impossible for Ecuador to take on the important task of blocking Brazil.

France is the most romantic country in Europe. The water of the Seine has cultivated their elegant nature. The sky of Paris is full of artistic atmosphere, and it is the same in football. The French team has never lacked players with delicate skills and elegant playing style. From Platini to Zidane, the French have won the reputation of "champagne football" with their chic style of play.

This French youth team has also inherited the style of their predecessors. The midfielder Lucin, known as Zidane's successor, and the forward Cisse, have scored six goals so far. Second only to Saviola, who scored seven goals, and ahead of Brazil's top scorer Adriano.

On the defense line, Mex, who is 1.9 meters tall, and Boumsson, who is 1.8 meters and nine meters tall, are the iron gates on the defense line. , This is unmatched by most of the youth teams who are still young players.

On July 7, the China Youth Team ushered in the French team in Mendoza.

This is the fifth and last game of the China Youth Team in Mendoza. After this game, whether it is a win or a loss, the China Youth Team will leave the city to accept new challenges.

After living, training, and competing here during this period, the members of the China Youth Team have developed deep feelings for this beautiful city.

We are leaving this city with our heads held high!This is the voice of all the youth team members.

At one o'clock in the morning of BJ time, the quarter-finals of the World Youth Championship, the match between the Chinese youth team and the French youth team is about to begin!

The Chinese youth team wore white jerseys, while the French team wore their traditional navy blue jerseys.

"CCTV, CCTV, hello viewers, now we are broadcasting for you a quarter-final match of the 2001 World Youth Championship. The two sides are the Chinese youth team and the French youth team. His performance gave everyone a lot of confidence, and there are a lot more fans staying up late to watch the game!" Wang Jianxiang jokingly said that he was in a good mood, because the quarter-finals of the China Youth Team this time was the best since 1985. Yes, in that competition, although the Chinese youth team also entered the top eight, but there were relatively few teams participating in that competition, and they entered the top eight as soon as they qualified in the group stage, so the performance of this year's Chinese youth team is even better. persuasive.

"Now that the players from both sides have already played, the China Youth team's lineup is still 4-4-2, the goalkeeper Wu Qi, the four defenders are Sun Ru, Li Min, Du Wei, Yang Bing, and Zhao Lin is the midfielder. Replacing the injured Hu Yong, the two wingers are Zhu Jun and Zhang Qi, and the midfielder Pei Wei. The forward line has changed a bit. Qu Tao and Zhong Yan have become partners. He replaced Zhanfeng who performed well in the previous game. It seems that coach He Jin wants to use these two fast forwards to deal with the opponent's two tall central defenders!"

"The formation of the French team is also 4-4-2, the goalkeeper Benedo, the defenders from left to right are Givy, Boumsun, Mex and Mendy, the midfielder Pedretti, the left midfielder Capo, Right midfielder Danic, midfielder Lucin, the two forwards are Cisse and Govou."

"With the whistle of the referee, the game begins!"

The China Youth Team kicked off first, Zhong Yan passed the ball to Qu Tao, Qu Tao passed back, and Zhao Lin got the ball.

In the past, Hu Yong, who took the ball in this position, often used his exquisite long pass to give the opponent a bad start.

Zhao Lin didn't have such footwork, he could only pass the ball across to right back Yang Bing.

Yang Bing took a few steps forward and passed it to Zhang Qi in front.

A few minutes into the game, the two teams were still passing the ball unhurriedly. Pressing the whole court is not what the French team is good at, and the game has just started, and they don't want to waste their energy in such an unnecessary place.

Pei Wei got the ball in the middle, and Pedretti came up to defend him.

This French youth team is very interesting. The nicknames given to them by the French domestic media all come from the world championship team in 98. For example, Mex's nickname is "Little Blanc", and Boumsson's nickname It is "Little Desailly", and even the nickname of striker Cisse is "Little Henry".

Compared with the sufficient artistic cells of the French, their level of nicknames in the media is indeed a bit inferior.

Pedretti in front of Pei Wei is no exception, his nickname is "Little Vieira".

The two started a duel in the midfield. Pedretti's body was very good. He entangled Pei Wei tightly. Although Pei Wei still firmly controlled the ball under his feet, he couldn't find a breakthrough gap.

Zhu Jun ran to meet him, Pei Wei turned around to pass the ball, he suddenly pulled back and passed the relaxed Pedretti!

"Cunning Chinese!" Pedretti was furious, and immediately turned around and chased after him desperately!
But Pei Wei's speed is not comparable to him. Although Pei Wei is carrying the ball, the distance between him and him is getting wider and wider.

When Pei Wei got a little before the penalty area, Mex jumped out. As soon as Pei Wei saw him attacking, he immediately passed a ground ball, and Qu Tao, who was unguarded, went in and singled it out!
Just as Qu Tao stopped the ball, a gust of wind passed by him immediately. When he came back to his senses, Bumsong had already broken his ball, and he kicked it out!
Qu Tao was taken aback. He obviously observed the surrounding situation when he was catching the ball. At that time, Boomsong was at least five meters away from him. Just as he lowered his head to stop the ball, Boomsong ran to him. ?

Pei Wei was also a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Boumsong actually saw through his intention of passing the ball, and started ahead of time to intercept Qu Tao's ball.

Boumsong's clearance was very powerful and flew far to the frontcourt.

Lu Xin is 1.8 meters tall, taller than Zhao Lin. He won the header and swung to the right.

After taking the ball, Danic relied on his speed to get down to the bottom and passed the ball into the penalty area. Ge Wu leaped high and took the header in front of Du Wei. The front poked the ball into the gate of the China Youth Team!

After a perfect fast break, the French team scored a goal from striker Cisse!
In the 10th minute of the first half, the French team took the lead!

The noisy Chinese fans on the sidelines quieted down, and many of them couldn't believe their eyes.What's going on here, obviously we attacked just now, how come our gate was breached in the blink of an eye?
The Chinese fans were quiet, and now it was the turn of the French fans to be happy. Since the beginning of the game, the momentum had been suppressed by the Chinese fans. Now they were elated. The "Marseille" was also sung, and the French flag began to be waved.

One French fan even held up a plastic rooster, which stood proudly.

"It really is a Gallic rooster." Xiao Jun touched his chin outside the field and thought, "It seems that Hu Yong's inability to play still has an impact. I wonder if the members of the China Youth Team can survive this test?"
