Grassroots Glory

Feibitz's words were a bit heavy, and Jiang Hao felt a little unwilling to be rejected so directly, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it, because of the experience of Feibitz's coach. In the player era, he not only had the experience of playing for the first team of Schalke 04, but also served as an assistant coach for the U19 youth team of Schalke 04 in his coaching career. Having worked in Schalke 04, a big Bundesliga youth academy, for ten years, one can imagine how many young players of all kinds and types he has seen. This is also the basis for him to establish absolute prestige in the hearts of these players.

Although German football mainly relies on community leagues and local youth training centers to select talents, there are not a few players who have embarked on a professional path from university leagues. How many of these teenagers who voluntarily join the school team do not have the dream of being a professional player? Not to mention these three Chinese students, Zhou Tiancheng, Jiang Hao and Ming Tao, if they didn't have a little love for football and a little bit of dream of professional players, they would choose this only if the football team is strong enough, and they can't rank in Germany in other aspects. Go to a top 50 university?

The three young people all have the same dream, to receive professional training in the best environment, and to play in the five major leagues in the future.

Therefore, Feibitz's words undoubtedly poured cold water on Jiang Hao's head.

I don't even have the qualifications to lift shoes for the youth team, so is there any need to stick to this path?

...

After Coach Feibitz left and everyone disbanded, Zhou Tiancheng and Ming Tao hurried over to comfort him: Hao, don't worry, after all, the finals are only a few days away. As you know, this is the first time the school has won the state championship in five years. Opportunities, coaches are also involuntary, there must be pressure.

Jiang Hao was so scolded that his heart beat a little, and he asked, Brother Cheng, do you think I'm really finished? If I really can't play professionally, then haven't I been blind all these years?

Zhou Tiancheng was speechless. The three of them had known each other since they were in high school in Beijing. He knew Jiang Hao very well.

Zhou Tiancheng patted him on the shoulder and said, What are you thinking about all day long? What's wrong with training? You've never made any mistakes in competitions. Are you a man with handles? Can you be less glass-hearted?

That's it, Lao Jiang, don't listen to that old turtle's nonsense! Ming Tao, who didn't talk much, also uttered a sentence in Sichuan dialect to enliven the atmosphere.

I'm not worried. The three of us agreed at the beginning that we would play a professional team together. I'm afraid of falling behind!

Haozi, don't think too much. You haven't played in the state finals yet. If you want to play in a professional team, you must at least reach the finals at the German level to have a chance. The biggest task now is to rest.

Walking into the international student dormitory building of the International College, you can see many faces of other skin colors in this building, and the three of them walked in and out of each other, no one felt strange, but a dark-skinned student asked with a smile One sentence: Haha! I wonder if the three of you have ever been separated.

In the eyes of outsiders, the three seem to have played together since they were young, but in fact they had no intersection at all before high school. Not even a place of people. Zhou Tiancheng is from Beijing, Jiang Hao is from Dalian, and Ming Tao is from Sichuan CD.

All three were born in 1989. In their childhood, the football atmosphere in these three cities made them fall in love with football. Zhou Tiancheng's childhood football memory is Beijing Guoan, and Jiang Hao was born in Dalian, a football city. Naturally, the glory of Dalian Wanda became his football enlightenment. As a native of Sichuan, Ming Tao himself said that he became attached to football because of the shouts of Quanxing Xiongqi that resounded through the streets and alleys of CD. Sichuan Quanxing's yellow hurricane is his first memory of football.

The later stories, of course, are inextricably linked with the summer of 2002. It was the inspiration of the World Cup in Japan and South Korea that made the three children fall in love with the green field thoroughly, and made the three families determined to let them go on the road. this road.

Then, there is the story of the three people getting acquainted and getting acquainted.

And from the attitudes of the three of them, it could be seen that Zhou Tiancheng was their leader.

When the three first met, Zhou Tiancheng offered to ask them to listen to him. Ming Tao had a gentle personality and didn't like fighting, so he naturally acquiesced. It's just that Jiang Hao is a bit dissatisfied. Northeast people have a straightforward temperament, and if they refuse to accept it, they just do it. Jiang Hao is 1.8 meters tall, and his muscles are quite strong. Suffering.

the reality is cruel. Zhou Tiancheng only punched him, and he got a nosebleed. Then he found out that Zhou Tiancheng had practiced Taekwondo for three years before he started playing football...

Of course, Zhou Tiancheng has a good way of making friends. After the relationship between the three of them gradually developed, as long as it was dirty work that needed to be solved manually, Zhou Tiancheng would take the initiative to come forward, especially when the three of them first came to Germany, they were not in a foreign country. In a foreign land, in an unfamiliar environment, at the beginning, many local snakes in the school wanted to trouble the three of them. Seeing that they were all freshmen who had just entered the school, they thought that the Chinese were easy to bully, but in the end they all understood the consequences of defying the law. .

This not only let the people in this school know that the three international students from the International College are macho and cannot be provoked, Jiang Hao and Ming Tao gradually convinced Zhou Tiancheng and took the initiative to recognize Zhou Tiancheng as the eldest brother. The reason why they are a few months older than the two, and more importantly, in Jiang Hao's words, being with Zhou Tiancheng gives him a sense of security that he is surrounded by his elder brother.

What really makes these three people inseparable in this school is that the most important thing is that there are no friends here. There are only three Chinese people in the whole school, so it is easy to share like-mindedness.

And the three of them are very clear about their goals in coming to Germany. You have to work hard here to play in a professional team.

...

Back in the dormitory, Zhou Tiancheng turned on the computer and suggested, Hey, let's play a live game, will you come?

Brother Cheng, why do you always like to play Dortmund? Since you like Dortmund, why don't you go to the university there? Jiang Hao couldn't help asking when he saw that Dortmund was the team chosen for the live 8 football game on Zhou Tiancheng's computer. road.

Zhou Tiancheng turned his head and asked back: If I apply for the university in Dortmund, we can still be in the same school? If you are bullied, who will help you out?

Brother Cheng, you are dishonest! I think you are a drunkard and don't stay in the bar? If you can pass the exam, you will choose this place? Don't you need to hide it from us? We all know that my sister-in-law is in Dortmund. In fact, you It’s not that I like Dortmund, it’s just that I miss you, am I right?”

Ming Tao, who doesn't like to talk, suddenly made a magic touch, and Jiang Hao's eyes widened, looking at Zhou Tiancheng with a smirk, and the fire of gossip was burning.

If you don't say something, you still have to do it. Zhou Tiancheng glared at Ming Tao and said.
