Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 321
With reluctance for his hometown and parents, and admiration for his brother, Yu Liang embarked on a journey back to Manchester in early July.

On June 6, the national team announced the 14-man roster for the Asian Cup training camp. All overseas players except Yu Liang were selected.Although the outside world has a lot of scandals about Yu Liang's failure to be selected for the training camp, Director Zhu still gave a very positive answer.

"Yu Liang's ability in the midfield is unquestionable! But the current team's midfield is enough to deal with any opponent in the Asian Cup. And judging from the current tactical arrangement, Yu Liang is not suitable for the current team. national team!"

The high-sounding reasons directly shut Yu Liang out.

Director Zhu's words were just whitewashing, and Yu Liang himself could more or less guess the real reason.

Li Jinyu of Shandong Luneng and Zhao Junzhe, the captain of the national team, also lost the election. The loss of the two of them also caused an uproar in China.One is because Dayu achieved a career of [-] professional goals in the league and became the top scorer in the Chinese Super League.The second reason is that Zhao Junzhe is the captain of the national team and has been in good condition.Although director Zhu gave the same reasons as Yu Liang's failure, no fans still bought it.

Although it is said that the Football Association has given Director Zhu the greatest room for selection, but to paraphrase Brother Sheng, with Wei Guangjun as a pig, you can't even think about entering the national team without paying the money.

Perhaps this list is not the most ideal in Director Zhu's mind.

After staying in London for two days, Yu Liang and Agnes returned to Manchester together.

Although there is still a month before the opening of the new season, the fans in the British Peninsula have never lacked enthusiasm, and news of signings is enough to ignite them.

Last season, due to financial constraints, Manchester United only introduced Carrick during the winter break.Manchester United, which won the double crown, got more funds this summer. Obviously, the Glazer family is not all idiots. They also know that the championship can bring them more income, and the guarantee of the championship is simply the team Strength.

England international Hargreaves was introduced from Bayern Munich for 1700 million, Brazilian teenager Anderson, known as Ronaldinho Jr., was purchased from Porto for 1800 million, and winger Nani was introduced from Sporting Lisbon for 2550 million pounds.At the same time, on the defensive line, Manchester United's rented teenagers Jonathan and Pique have officially returned to the first team. The addition of various fronts has made the fans full of higher expectations for Manchester United in the new season.

Yu Liang's contract renewal negotiations are also coming to an end. After more than a month of wrangling between David Jones and Ferguson, the curtain has finally come to an end.The two parties signed a five-year contract. In the new season, Yu Liang's weekly salary will be 6 pounds. After that, each season will increase by 20% year by year. In this way, Yu Liang's total salary will reach more than 2300 million pounds in five years.Manchester United finally let go of the portrait rights that have been stalemate, and Yu Liang still retains 100% of the portrait rights.However, this also caused Yu Liang to lose part of his income, appearance fees, assist awards, goalscorers, etc.However, these bonuses are nothing compared to income from portrait rights.

After Yu Liang completed his contract extension, Manchester United's pre-season training kicked off at the Carrington base.

Except for Dong Wang, who participated in the Asian Cup, everyone participated in the team's first training session.

When the Carrington Base, which had been quiet for a summer, resumed its former hustle and bustle, Dong Wang, who was far away in Southeast Asia, started his first intercontinental competition - the Asian Cup.

In the first game, the Chinese team faced Malaysia, one of the hosts.

Yu Liang watched this game on the computer in the Carrington base.Unlike the game lost to Thailand, under the combing of Shao Jiayi and Zheng Zhi, the Chinese team's offense was relaxed.After the opening, he quickly took control of the situation on the court.Under the orderly attack of the Chinese team, the goal of the Malaysian team was quickly declared lost.

In the 15th minute, Shao Jiayi made a straight pass in the middle, Wang Dong turned offside from the side and made a pass from the bottom, Han Peng then nodded and scored, 1-0.The whole offensive process is very smooth, without sloppy.

Seeing such a good performance of the Chinese team, Yu Liang was also very excited.

Thinking back to what Brother Sheng said, a smile appeared on Yu Liang's face.

What kind of conditions should be put forward?
The Chinese team, which was getting better and better, broke through the gate of Malaysia again in the 35th minute.

Sun Xiang broke through from the left and was knocked down by the opponent. The referee didn’t say anything. Zheng Zhi quickly put in the pass.

The Chinese team led Malaysia 2-0 in the first half.

After changing sides and fighting again, the Chinese team scored in the opening 5 minutes. This time it was Wang Dong who scored.

After failing to play two-on-one with his teammates, the Malaysian defender made a mistake and passed the ball to Wang Dong's feet. Wang Dong shot angrily from outside the penalty area. The football hit the defensive player and hit the sideline, 3-0.

Only 4 minutes away from Wang Dong's goal, the Chinese team scored again.

After Mao Jianqing made a breakthrough from the left, he passed a diagonal pass to the penalty area, and Han Peng pushed a shot into the net, 4-0.

After leading by 4 goals, the Chinese team relaxed.

Malaysia took the opportunity to pull back with a long shot, 1-4.

King Dong appeared.

Seeing King Dong playing, Yu Liang was looking forward to his friend's performance on the field. However, in the next ten minutes, he did not show any performance except Zheng Zhi sent him a through ball and missed it.He looked so isolated in the frontcourt.Seeing King Dong behave like this, Yu Liang couldn't help feeling a little sad.

In stoppage time, the Chinese team scored another goal.

Sun Xiang picked a pass from outside the penalty area and Wang Dong scored with a header, 5-1.

The Chinese team, which is in full condition, kicked off its trip to the Asian Cup with a big victory.

This big victory smashed all the comments that were not optimistic about the Chinese team before the game.For a while, all the media were competing to praise the Chinese team, and Director Zhu suddenly became the savior of Chinese football.

After the game, Yu Liang also dialed Brother Sheng's phone number immediately. He was full of confidence in the bet.

After a big victory over Malaysia in the first game, the Chinese team, which rested for five days, ushered in the second Asian Cup opponent, Iran.

The Iranian team has always been one of the strong teams in Asia. Before the 06 World Cup, the FIFA ranking once advanced to the top 20, which shows its strong strength.But after the 06 World Cup, the strength of the Iranian team began to decline, but the overall strength is still unmatched by the Chinese team.

Against Iran, Director Zhu did not adjust the personnel, and still used the starting lineup from the previous game.

After the game started, the Chinese team quickly entered the state.

The big victory in the first game gave them great confidence. They created four consecutive shooting opportunities in the opening 4 minutes, but they failed to score.

In the 6th minute, the Chinese team got a free kick from outside the penalty area. Shao Jiayi took the free kick around the wall and went straight to the dead corner. 1-0, the Chinese team made a fantastic start.

Unlike the match against Malaysia, the Chinese team did not have an advantage on the scene in this game, and has been passively defending after taking the lead.However, the Iranian team, which aggressively attacked, did not get many opportunities. On the contrary, the backcourt was empty, which gave the Chinese team a chance to counterattack.

In the 32nd minute, Wang Dong intercepted the ball in midfield and gave it to Zheng Zhi. Zheng Zhi kicked a long pass from the side. 2-0.

This goal completely inspired the passion of the Chinese fans, and there was joy in the Bukit Jalil Stadium in Kuala Lumpur.

At this time, Yu Liang, who was following the team on the Asian tour, raised his fists and cheered heartily in the hotel in Japan.

Not only alarmed his roommate Scholes, but also alarmed the teammates next door.

The Chinese team, leading by 2 goals, has already seen the hope of emergence. After the first half of the game, they defended with all their strength, and the Iranian team returned without success.However, just before the end of the first half, Li Weifeng fouled at the front of the restricted area, giving the Iranian team a free kick.The Iranian team took a tactical free kick, and after the horizontal dial, a long-range shot from outside the penalty area directly scored the goal, 1-2, and the Iranian team pulled back a goal before the end of the first half.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Before the start of the game, the Iranian team made two substitution adjustments to strengthen the team's offense.

The Iran team, which strengthened its offense, frequently threatened the Chinese team's gate in the frontcourt.

As the Iranian team's offensive momentum became more and more fierce, Director Zhu also made substitution adjustments, successively replacing Zhao Xuri and Dewey to strengthen the team's defense.Such a substitution adjustment is understandable, but the defense did not bring the Chinese team three points. In the 73rd minute, the Iranian team used a corner kick to equalize the score 2-2, and the score remained unchanged until the final whistle.

After a draw with the strong Asian team Iran, after the two games, both the Chinese team and the Iranian team had one win and one tie with 4 points, and they ranked second in the group because of the relationship between victory and defeat.In the last game against Uzbekistan, the Chinese team can qualify as long as they draw.
