Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 107 Before the Finals
Yi Xiaofeng won the top scorer of League A and B with 27 league goals. This dark Foshan native did not expect that after transferring to Yunjia Tianyu, he would still be able to score such goals at the age of [-]. Brilliant personal honor, and in Yunjiatianyu's formation, he is like a fish in water. Under the cover of a strong center forward, all he needs to do is to open the gap through continuous running, and then the midfielder Passing the ball into goals is enough - that's what he's happiest doing.

There is no best player award in League A and B. The Chinese Football Association only selects a Chinese Footballer of the year, which is basically the best player in League A. Last year it was Peng Weiguo, and General Fan’s outstanding performance this year is basically the same. The places for A-A top scorer and Chinese Footballer of the Year are reserved—in fact, in history, General Fan also won these two awards alone this year.

However, in some sports newspapers, the vast majority of people believe that if it is really necessary to select the best player in A-B, then Yunjiatianyu’s German foreign aid Ballack is likely to win this honor. He is not very good in terms of the most direct data that can show the role of a player, with five goals and four assists in 22 games, but as a midfielder, his role on the field is obvious to all.He is the only player among the nearly 22 players in the twelve teams of League A and B who has played all [-] games, and his running range covers the entire court. It is not an exaggeration to say that with Ballack on the court, Yunjia Tianyu It means that in every game, twelve people are used to deal with eleven people of others.

This makes Pei Wei feel a little regretful. In his opinion, this is just one aspect of the unattractive aspect of the Chinese league that has just started. Like most European leagues, various awards have been set up, such as the Premier League. In the Premier League, the top league, even the second-level League One and League Two have the best coaches and best teams every month, and a best player on the spot will be selected for each game-a reward There are not many things, just a bottle of champagne, let alone the best rookie, best coach, best foreign aid, best local player, etc. after the end of the year's league. There are many other awards, although these awards are not great honors, but they give all teams and players a hope and a goal to strive for.

In comparison, the Chinese league has far fewer things to watch. Basically, there are only two things to watch, winning the championship and relegation, and then there are the selection of the top scorer and the Chinese Footballer. This is obviously not enough, because the ability There are only a few teams that win the championship, and there are only two places for relegation. This has created a large number of teams that do not want to make progress after the performance is stable. The lame reason of "player" is perfunctory for the rest of the game-fans are not blind after all, who would be interested in watching a game without any highlights after watching a few drowsy games in succession?In this way, the entire league can only fall into a vicious circle and become less and less attractive.

Anyway, there is no difference between No.2 and No.10, it's just that the ranking looks better, so who would care about the ranking?What is even more sad is that in the later Chinese league, in the second half of the league every year, there will be a large number of "problem balls". After all, there are multiple ways out for many friends. No matter who you are, there will always be times when you can ask someone else. If you give favors to others now, there will always be times when they will be useful in the future. As a result, the league began to lose fairness, justice and public credibility. In the end, it can only lead to destruction.

Of course, this kind of thing is unavoidable, even in Europe with the most mature league mechanism, there will often be one or another shady scene, such as the Serie A call gate in later generations, and Mourinho's criticism that "Manchester United will always be at a critical moment. At this time, it is necessary for the Football Association to use powerful means to punish these "deviant" teams, and to renew It is a pity that the Chinese Football Association did not show such courage in the critical year or two to bring the league into a normal track.

The weakness of Wan Junsheng, who took over after Xu Bing's death, is one aspect, as is the short-sightedness of domestic clubs.

************************************************** **
On November 1995, 11, Group A and Group B of the National Football League came to an end at the same time. Shanghai Shenhua won the league championship in the second year of professionalization as it wished. Their team soul and captain Fan General won the top scorer alone BJ and Dalian ranked second and third respectively for the two awards of Best Honor and Best Honor. Shuzhong Tianfu relied on Chu Biao's header in the last few minutes to defeat the The People's Liberation Army successfully stayed in the ranks of A-A, while the old strong team "Ten Champions" Liaoning was relegated after being defeated by the Guangzhou Suns. Also in the abyss is the newly promoted Qingdao team.

At the end of the second year of professionalization, the First Division League began to close, and fans across the country focused their attention on Nanjing. In Wutaishan Stadium, the last big dish of Chinese football in 1995 will be held. The first FA Cup since the beginning of professionalization finals.

One was born out of nowhere, only established for two years, but it took three years to make three big strides to A-A, the biggest dark horse Yun Jiatianyu who has remained undefeated in the competition so far, and the other is A-A The old strong team has won a fifth and a sixth in the league in the past two years. Shandong Donghai, which has a profound foundation and many enthusiastic support fans, these two teams will inevitably collide with fierce sparks in the final .

Yunjiatianyu has achieved remarkable results in the past two years. They have no opponents in League One and B, and they are eager to make a breakthrough in the FA Cup. They are eager to use the championship to expand their influence. Shandong On the other hand, Donghai has to maintain the honor of the A-A team and defeat the opponent to win the FA Cup. Only then can they have an explanation to the eagerly looking forward to Shandong fans.

Both teams came to this point through difficult games. Shandong Donghai made it to the final after eliminating Jiangsu Canon, Liaoning and BJ Yulin respectively. Yunjiatianyu It is even more difficult. Except for the Hunan Silver Elephant who was eliminated in the qualifying round, the other three opponents are all real A-A teams. Guangdong and Guangzhou are ranked fourth and the other is fifth. Shenhua is the champion of A-A this year, majestic and invincible, but Yunjiatianyu has all been defeated. Now that he has reached this point through arduous competition, Yunjiatianyu has no reason to give up.

However, in the discussion of the outside world, there are still more optimistic about Shandong Donghai. Although Yunjiatianyu has the world champion captain Deng Jia and the top scorer of A and B B Xiaofeng, there seem to be more good players in the Shandong team, such as Su Maozhen, Liu Yue, and captain Xing Rui are all national players. Defender Li Ming and midfielder Li Xiaopeng are also members of the National Olympic Team. Moreover, these players have cooperated for several years, and have reached a tacit understanding. To a very high level, compared to Yunjiatianyu, a team that has only been formed for two years, and most of the main players have played together for only one year, it seems to be stronger.

************************************************
Because of this game, Yunjiatianyu did not disband like other teams after the league ended, but started a week-long training camp after a three-day vacation.

Wenger's apartment is full of all the videos of Shandong Donghai in the A-League this season. Since he rushed to the A-A in advance, Wenger has put all his focus on studying this team, although Pei Wei has never Wenger has been given any indicators regarding the results of the FA Cup, but Wenger knows the importance of the FA Cup.

After getting along for more than a year, Wenger probably also knew the purpose of Pei Wei's club. After understanding part of the current situation of Chinese football, he knew that Pei Wei didn't just want to start a successful club, but I want to promote the development of the entire Chinese football through the success of my own club.

Although as a Frenchman, Wenger did not understand Pei Wei's plot, but he was also impressed by Pei Wei's ambition.

Using the ability of a club to drive the development of the entire national football level-this kind of thing seems to have little hope of success, but it is not impossible.

Especially in the operation of Yunjiatianyu Club, which is completely borrowed from the experience of European football leagues that have been developed for hundreds of years, it has naturally developed rapidly without many detours-learning is always much easier than exploration.

That is to say, the more successful Yunjiatianyu is and the more championships it wins, the easier it will be for other teams to follow suit. At that time, the level of Chinese football will naturally rise. Serie A is desperately spending money to introduce outstanding players from other countries, so where does Serie A's "Little World Cup" come from?

Until now, Wenger has been grateful to Pei Wei for hiring him to come to China with great sincerity. Now, Wenger feels that it is time for him to repay Pei Wei.

Su Maozhen, Xing Rui, Li Xiaopeng, and Wenger circled these three names heavily on the tactical board. These three players are the most threatening figures in the Shandong Donghai team's offense.

There should be no problem with Xing Rui and Li Xiaopeng. With Dunga and Ballack, there are not many midfielders in China who can pass their defense smoothly. The problem lies in Su Maozhen.

Feng Gang is solid, but his physical fitness is not as good as Su Maozhen's. Zhu Guosheng's physical fitness is top-notch, but he is not as good as Su Maozhen in terms of experience. Now among Yunjia Tianyu's defenders, it is really difficult to find someone who can defend Su Maozhen.

Wenger folded his hands and thought hard.

PS: Thank you for your understanding and support.
