Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 794 Spray without scruples
Zhang Yuan didn't want to argue with him. For such a blind reporter, Zhang Yuan simply said lightly: "I don't know how capable I am, but I will definitely work very hard to do this job well!"

Generally speaking, the press conference ended in a stable and peaceful atmosphere. Zhang Yuan was relieved. He was afraid that the reporters below would always say that he was inexperienced, but he didn’t. The captain is also well-received.

The new captain led the team to play the first game away against Saudi Arabia, on September 9, at the Port of Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

The weather was fine that day. Daman is a port city, and it was very hot during this period. It is said that the highest temperature here can reach more than 40 degrees. However, the temperature was not so high on September 9. At night, when the sea breeze blows, the temperature may Still a little hot but that doesn't affect the overall situation.

However, Captain Zhang's first game was not smooth. They lost 1:2 to Saudi Arabia in the away game. The only goal of the Chinese team was him.

The first game of leading the team was a bad start. Zhang Yuan's depressed mood can be imagined. To sum up, Zhang Yuan felt that there was a huge problem with the team's attitude, and the players' self-confidence was overly inflated.

In the World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team was lucky enough to get the spot. Many players thought they were number one in the world. Zhang Yuan was missing in the East Asian Cup. The performance of the Chinese team was still very good and they won the runner-up. The players were even more confident.

Today's game against Saudi Arabia can clearly feel that there are many problems. The pass is too big, the defense is too big, and the offense is too big. If Saudi Arabia is not lucky today, it is estimated that the Chinese team will be beaten into a sieve. Zhang Yuan's goal It can only be said that a little bit of face was saved.

Because the score in the first half was 0:0. Zhang Yuan didn't say anything in the locker room, but when the game ended, Zhang Yuan had to stand up and criticize the team's performance.

"We played very badly today, I don't know why?! But I'm sure some people are swollen and think it's great to qualify for the World Cup qualifiers, and it's great to be able to fight against Japan, South Korea and Australia in the East Asian Cup But from my experience, we are not even as good as the third-rate teams in Europe. What is there to be proud of?! Is there any reason for us to go to the University?! We lost this game, but there is another game, who I don’t want the fans to scold me, but if I continue to behave like this, the fans’ rejection is inevitable!”

"If you wear the national team's jersey, you must be worthy of the country, and you must be worthy of the fans' expectations?! If you don't have such a thought, why don't you join the national team in a hurry! The national team is not a place dedicated to making everyone famous!"

Zhang Yuan sprayed without warning, and the spray was poisonous enough, but most of the players did not refute it. Needless to say the main reason? !Thinking about it carefully, Zhang Yuan's spouting was completely justified, as a human being, everyone has a sense of shame, and everyone has a head and a face, and it is better to be ashamed now than to go out.

As for what he said, there are some players who use the national team to gain fame and wealth, and it has never been broken. Now some people in the team have such thoughts.

Zhang Yuan's rant is really not unreasonable. Although the score is small, the scene is completely below. The domestic media raged against the national team. They have forgotten that this national team qualified from the qualifiers a few months ago. It's done. A little bit of a miracle.

There are media outlets that have lashed out, directly scolding the national team players for being walking dead and not working on the field.

After the team returned to China, they could also see the voices of the outside news media. Facing the accusations from the outside world, the players of the national team finally realized their mistakes.

Knowing the shame and being brave, on September 9th, in the second match held in Tianjin, the Chinese team finally made no mistakes and defeated Iraq 10-3 neatly. Zhang Yuan contributed a pass and a shot. He played against Saudi Arabia. Center forward, he is still a center forward in this game. No matter what position he is, he can always become the shining point in the national team.

After two rounds, China won one and lost one, and ranked second with 3 points. Of course, Saudi Arabia, which has won both games, is ranked first. Indonesia and Iraq are ranked 3 and 4 respectively. The strongest team in this group should be The Chinese team and Saudi Arabia are actually not as prestigious as they were at the beginning, but the pragmatic Saudi Arabia is China's biggest opponent.

In any case, the current points are not bad. The situation of the Chinese team's qualifying has not yet been determined. The next round of the game will be played in October, and the away game will be against Indonesia. It will be much safer if the Chinese team can win this game.

After Zhang Yuan participated in the game, he didn't start immediately. In the evening after the game, Zhang Yuan invited the whole team to go out for dinner, and he didn't leave by plane until the next morning.

He is an early player to return to the team this weekend. Juventus will go away to challenge Inter Milan in the league this weekend. Inter Milan has dug Mazari from Naples this season. Two wins, same points.

There is little movement in the transfer market of Inter Milan this summer. On the one hand, Moratti does not want to continue spending money. This does not mean that he is too poor to spend money, but that he thinks the team's lineup is not bad. He spent a lot of money last summer, but unfortunately the coach was not up to expectations and the team's performance was poor. This year, he changed to a new coach. He believes that Mazari will make the team better. If they don't want to compete for the championship, they must at least enter the Champions League area.

Of course, the bigger reason is that he is now negotiating with Indonesian businessman Tohir to sell the Inter Milan club. He originally expected to complete the deal in Xia Chuang, but it has been delayed for a long time, and it has not been completed yet. Moratti is not stupid , Why continue to invest money, now the prospect of this transaction is relatively clear, Inter Milan may soon change the world.

Speaking of this, I have to mention another reason. This reason is not an interference to Inter Milan this summer, but it is definitely an interference to other teams.

That is UEFA's Financial Fair Play Act. The purpose of this bill is to emphasize the balance of revenue and expenditure. The benefit is naturally to reject unhealthy competition. Rich bosses can invest without restrictions. Some clubs are also examples. This kind of European football will become a game for a few rich clubs. From a large perspective, the old faces who appear on the highest stage of European football every year are boring. After a long time, the fans will also feel fatigued. .

So Platini came up with such a thing. Many people said that he deliberately punished the Premier League team, but in fact, no, the commercial development of Premier League teams is generally better. The most important thing is that their broadcast costs are very high. Even the bottom of the ranking can get a lot of money.

The rich club is even more like you have a good plan and I have a wall ladder. I can always find a way to smooth out the accounts, and what should continue will continue.

But for Italian football, this is definitely not good news. As we all know, Italian football itself has experienced football bubbles. Let alone the small ones, even Inter Milan and AC Milan have experienced losses, especially small and medium clubs. A handful of clubs are able to break even.

With such a policy introduced by UEFA, many teams in Serie A have no way to buy players and can only make small troubles. How can such competitiveness gain a foothold on the European battlefield, so this policy is not necessarily good for Italian football. It's a good thing, but it's a good thing for Juventus. They are the best-run Italian football team, and their business is gradually rising. They have their own stadium. If there is no foreign blood transfusion, it is impossible for other teams to carry them.

Of course, this reason is not the main reason for Inter Milan’s small troubles. The main reasons are the first two. In fact, Inter Milan’s small troubles have won two consecutive victories in the league. It has been praised by the outside world.

No way, this is the football environment. If I remember correctly, Gasperini only stayed in Inter Milan for more than 90 days, and he only took a few games. Now Mazzari is just 100 days old, and he only took two games. It's just the league.

In the first two rounds, Inter Milan played against Genoa and Catania. They were not very strong in terms of strength, and it was relatively easy for Inter Milan to win. However, in the third round The test is coming, the defending champion Juventus, the European champion Juventus, plus a few more titles, the Italian Super Cup champion, the European Super Cup champion, and the sworn enemy of Inter Milan.

The mortal enemy that is really valued by Juventus is Inter Milan. This club has a solid background, and its historical relationship with Juventus is long enough to write a book.
