Chapter 147 China's Embarrassment

ps: I moved the date of the first East Asian Cup a few months earlier.

When Momo returned to China to prepare for the first East Asian Cup after the revision, he got such news.

The number of applicants for the East Asian Cup teams will be expanded from 20 to 30.Although this is a temporary change for the recruitment of overseas players, XXX, director of the National Management Department of the Chinese Football Association, stated that the two international players Sun Jihai and Li Tie who are currently playing in the Premier League will not return to China to participate in this competition.

And because there are only eight teams participating in the competition, the most direct is the semi-finals.

In fact, Sun Jihai and Li Tie are willing to win glory for the country, but it is a pity that the East Asian Cup is not an international A-level event, and they also have arrangements for the club. The mandatory terms of unconditional recruitment, but the recruitment of two overseas internationals at this time will definitely cause trouble for the two of them and the overseas clubs they belong to.It will also create unnecessary conflicts between the Chinese Football Association and the two clubs.

In the end, it is confirmed that the Chinese national football team going to Japan is still under consideration, and various clubs in China also hope that the national team will not or as little as possible transfer their own national football teams.

Ali Han attaches great importance to this East Asian Cup, because this is the most important game since he coached the Chinese team, and it is also the time to confirm the confidence of the fans.

You know, although the previous friendly matches were played well, and the fans even praised Brazil for a 0-0 draw, but after all, it was only a friendly match with little convincing power and little gold content. Therefore, this time Ali Han really wanted to get a good ranking.

Since Ali Han took office, although he has achieved good results in a series of invitational matches (friendly matches), many people have questioned his employment, especially during his trip to the United States this year. The results of the national football team have not only dissatisfied the fans , and was also criticized by some football association leaders.

After Ali Han watched the Olympic qualifiers of the Olympic team, it is rumored that he has become interested in some Olympic team members. In response to the shortcomings of the national football team in some aspects, four or five Olympic team members have already entered Ali-Han. Kahn's field of vision also includes Dalian Shide's An Qi, Zhang Yaokun, Yan Song and Shanghai Shenhua's Dewey and others.

After Sun Jihai and Li Tie confirmed that they would not be able to go to Japan to participate in the East Asian Cup, it can be said that Momo gave Ali Han a reassurance, and Momo also brought Chelsea who was thrown to Mourinho Zhang Meng, who has been training for half a season, has greatly increased the strength of the national football team

This time, due to the short training time, Ali Han will only recruit players he is familiar with to Japan. Originally, there were only two goalkeepers, Liu Yunfei and Li Jian. There is a choice between Lei Lei, among which Yu Weiliang is more likely to be selected.

This time the Chinese Football Association also attaches great importance to the East Asian Cup, so as long as the tactics allow, Ali Han can recruit the players he wants to go to Japan, because the concentration time of the National Olympics is one week after the end of the East Asian Cup. will affect each other.But because Ali Han has led the team to play 6 games this year, if too many Olympic players are recruited for this event, it will inevitably cause a crash in next year's World Cup qualifiers, because the competition between the national team and the Olympic team obviously cannot Taking into account, there will be a player vacuum at that time, so Ali Han himself, who knows this, is probably unwilling to transfer more Olympic players to participate.

In fact, when faced with these news, Mo Mo felt uncomfortable. In such a big country, why can’t 30 players be selected to participate in the East Asian Cup?
In terms of Japan and South Korea, their signings have not received much attention. "Nikkan Sports" reported that Eindhoven rejected it in their answer to the Korean Football Association.

The reason is that it is not an international A-level competition time. It is disrespectful to the club to recruit Korean players to return to such a regional competition.

While Xue Qixuan is still recovering from his injury, his club Anderlecht rejected the request of the Korean Football Association on the grounds that they need to rest.

In addition, Li Tianxiu of Spain's Real Sociedad and Cha Doo-li of Frankfurt, Germany also had to stay in the club for the same reason.In this regard, "Nikkan Sports" believes that it is difficult for the Korean Football Association to mobilize these players back, and Coelho, who is well aware of the rules of European clubs, is not good at forcing these clubs to hire people, because it is obviously not good for his preparations for the World Cup next year.Therefore, the South Korean team is likely to recruit more Olympic players to participate in the national team for training.

However, four J-League players, Ahn Jung-hwan, Yoo Sang-chul, Kim Eun-joong, and Choi Yong-soo, will be able to return.Although the return of the four of them is of great benefit to South Korea's enhanced offensive capabilities, the lack of Park Ji-sung and Lee Cheon-soo's South Korean midfielders, especially the two wings, has been greatly affected.

In Japan, many European stars also expressed that they would not return to their country to participate. The reason is that the club does not allow it on the one hand, and on the other hand, because most of the Korean players studying abroad have not returned to their country.

As for China?All right!
No matter how Japan and South Korea cover up, what they actually mean is that the players of our Olympic team can compete for the championship, and other countries are just running with them!At the beginning of February 2004, China will have the first match of the World Cup qualifiers. Under such circumstances, although it is a pity that they cannot play against European players from Japan and South Korea.

But this time, Mo Mo is aiming for the championship, regardless of the gold content of the trophy, even the East Asian Cup can't win the championship, and he can't dominate in East Asia. How can he dominate the whole world.

Even South Korea and Japan, which lack the main force, can't win. How can they achieve better results in the World Cup?

What?You said the World Cup qualifiers haven't been played yet?hehe!Is this a problem?
Since you all despise the East Asian Cup this time, just wait and see!

In the following all my playing career, whether it is the East Asian Cup or the Asian Cup, Japan and South Korea, I will never even think about winning another championship.

Even if I retire in the future, the Chinese players I have promoted during my playing career will take over the banner of my predecessors and continue to suppress you.

It's like Mo Mo took over the broken banner of *** and others.

Slowly walking towards the training base, no one came to pick up Momo this time. He even said that Ali Han didn't have much expectation for Momo's recruitment.

After all, Momo is now in the best league in the world, Serie A (the final four of the Champions League and three Serie A teams, just like the top four of the Champions League in later generations are basically arranged by La Liga, Serie A was the top league in the world at that time .)
But Mo Mo is here, because from now on, starting from the East Asian Cup, he will carry the national football team, so that the national football team will no longer be the one that scolds the national football team and abandons it when it sees the national football team.
