Now the Japanese have long stopped considering losing more than a dozen goals to the Chinese team a few years ago as a great shame. At that time, the Japanese team was at least one of the strong teams in Asia.

But this time even India and Syria can't play, this is really unacceptable!

The Japanese media is also exporting frantically, because if this continues, won’t they lose to Vietnam, Thailand, and Cambodia in the future?

The Chinese Football Association has received a more low-profile exchange request from the Japanese Football Association after the event. The current Japanese football world has almost completely reached a consensus from top to bottom, from the media to the public, and believes that if Japanese football does not want to become a national and The national humiliation, then there is only one way to learn from China in an all-round way.

This powerful opponent, which has not been defeated once since the establishment of Japan's national football team, will undoubtedly be the only way out for Japanese football, and there is no second option.

Wu Zhengsong and Ye Yuqi were the happiest laughing at this time. Now the reform funds of the Chinese Football League should be completely settled with the money of local tyrants.

It’s okay for the Japanese to exchange and learn, but now Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar are all communicating with China, and it’s not limited to football. Those local tyrants want to learn everything, such as basketball, volleyball, and even TM swimming. .

Now even Saudi Arabia, which has not yet established diplomatic relations, plans to pay tuition fees to learn football. It is not impossible for the Japanese to squeeze in at this time, but sincerity must be expressed before they are expressed, otherwise it will not be another loss of the largest economy in Asia. Save face.

Chapter 329 Recruiting Disciples

The competition system of the Asian Cup has also been changing. This year, eight places will be determined in four groups in the preliminary round, and then they will be divided into two groups with China and Singapore, and then two teams will be determined to advance to the semi-finals and start the knockout round.

The Chinese team was assigned to Group A. The opponents in the same group were: Kuwait, South Korea, Iran, and India.

Obviously, the strength of Group B is weaker. The United Arab Emirates and Qatar are not as strong as Syria before apprenticeship, and Saudi Arabia is considered a strong Asian team.

But for China and Singapore, there is actually no difference in the strength of the group, because in the eyes of the former, they are all weak teams, and in the eyes of the latter, they are all strong teams.

Ye Yuqi and the leaders of the sports department did not put pressure on the players before the game, and they did not speak official words after the meeting, but they secretly told Li Fenglou and the Football Association's minions that this Asian Cup should not be hidden. The Chinese team not only To win, you have to be merciless, just like Arsenal played Manchester United.

Well, now even Asian teams are starting to use Manchester United as a loss indicator. I don’t know if Manchester United fans will cry when they find out.

Of course, Li Fenglou and others dare not have any opinions, but they are still complaining in their hearts: Since they want to fight to the death, why not let some players be recalled from Europe?

It doesn't matter if those superstars are not transferred back, but Gu Guangming and Zhao Dayu can be called back, right?

But they didn't want to think about it. Wu Jie and others were going to come back to play. No matter how upset the team was, they didn't dare to complain, because no one could replace them.

But if players like Gu Guangming and Zhao Dayu are always called back, then they should consider whether to find a substitute, because players of this level can be replaced.

Of course, these issues will not be discussed, because subordinates cannot argue with their superiors.

These Football Association officials are full of airs when facing the players, but they are obedient to these co-drivers from the sports department. It can be seen how naive Wu Jie was thinking of his father as the first brother of the Football Association when he first crossed.

After the coaching staff of the Chinese team received the order to "beat hard", they didn't frown, because this is not a difficult task to complete. In fact, they have long wanted to do it.

It happened that the first game of the group stage was to play against India, and the starting forwards sent by the Chinese team were Ma Lin and Zhang Anhong.

It is not the first time for the 22-year-old Ma Lin to enter the national team, but it is the first time for the 20-year-old Zhang Anhong to enter the national team.

This person was discovered by Wu Jie very early on. He is basically an enhanced version of Liu Haiguang's technology, but he is weaker in physical confrontation, explosive power, and heading. His physical talent is only three-star, but his technology is really good.

However, with such players already having Liu Haiguang and Chen Jingang, it is naturally difficult to occupy another position. This Chinese team does not need a high-level center forward with insufficient confrontation skills.

The coaching staff of the Chinese team thinks that he can replace Chen Jingang in the future, but when they think of Yang Shuhua, who is outrageously talented in the youth team, and Wu Jie's younger brother will come out in a few years, Zhang Anhong might not be able to squeeze into the first team at that time. up.

In the past two years, there have been many young players in such an embarrassing situation for the Chinese team.

They are better than Chen Jingang's group of players in terms of talent, but they are much worse than the talents emerging from the new generation, so they are doomed to find it difficult to join the national team in big competitions.

This can be regarded as a side effect of Wu Jie's secret use of the system to dig out talents. Of course, this side effect is a good thing, because after all, there are very few real talents. Chinese football can only truly become a football power if it has a sufficient number of such outstanding players.

Players like Zhang Anhong are not too bad. Even if they go to the four major leagues, they can play a rotation position in the relegation team. If they go to the middle and lower teams in leagues such as Eredivisie, Ligue [-], and League One, then they will have a starting problem. Not too big.

This kind of player Wu Jie is not too much at all, and the more the better.

Also, although these players are in an embarrassing situation in the national team, it is impossible for them to do much in Europe.

But in Asia, especially Asia in the 80s, they are really big brothers.

And this kind of Asian star level, players who can be the core players in Japan and South Korea, are now everywhere in this Chinese national team, because if you are not at this level, you will not even be able to enter the third team.

Let's put it this way, even if the undrafted players from the second and third teams are selected to form a team, it will still have few rivals in Asia.

Faced with such a Chinese team, the Indian team's end is naturally not much different from that in 62.

"I also want to go to Europe to make a lot of money!"

When Zhang Anhong appeared on the stage, her thoughts were very pragmatic.

He didn't want Wu Jie and other big brothers to dominate Europe like they did, they knew they didn't have that talent.

But like Liu Haiguang and Zhao Dayu, who stand out in Europe, even if they play in the German second division like Chen Jingang and Shen Xiangfu, then it may not be impossible.

What's more, even if they play in the Bundesliga [-], they can earn a salary that they can't even imagine for a year.

Wei Xinghua, a 19-year-old winger who has been overwhelmed by Ren Zhihui, thinks the same way.

Before Ren Zhihui went to the Netherlands, no one noticed him as a genius who was not inferior to Gu Guangming back then. Now it is finally his turn to show his talent.

Tan Haishan looked at his partner Zhu Bo, the Bayi defender who had just been replaced by Cui Yonghua, and he would soon be replaced by him. He wanted to prove that he was no worse than Cui Yonghua and Jia Xiuquan, and that he could also play football in Italy.

Li Huayun bowed his head and kissed the five-star red flag on his jersey before going on the field. He didn't know why he was always rejected by the national team despite his hard work.

Gu Guangming's condition is indeed very good, but he is confident that he is better than Shen Xiangfu, but he is not included in the list every time he is selected for the national team.

He knows that he is no longer young, and the current young talents are jumping out one after another. If he can't seize this last chance, he may never have the chance to wear this jersey.

There are also Ma Lin, Wu Qunli, Wang Dongning, Lu Hongxiang, Chi Minghua, Fu Yubin...these seniors of the national team also have the idea of ​​going to Europe to play in their hearts. Today, there are indeed a large number of European scouts coming to China to seek gold.

They dare not not come, how many geniuses have China produced in the past few years?

Who dares to say that there will not be another Wu Jie II in this Asian Cup?

They all know that Wu Jie became famous through the Asian Cup, so this event has also attracted the attention of European teams. This is called not looking at the face of the monk but at the face of the Buddha.

The calculations in the hearts of these teams are very simple. Even if there is no such monster as Wu Jie, if there are Chen Haonan and Lin Yaodong, it will be enough to be the cornerstone for a lifetime!

At this time, even Manchester United, which had just become a joke in Europe, also sent a chief scout to discover Chinese talents. This is called "learning from foreigners to control foreigners".

But the result was a bit too surprising. Why do these Chinese players seem to be geniuses?

Just like that Li Huajun, this Chinese winger turned the entire right corridor into his back garden from the very beginning of the game. His violent stops and starts and high-speed changes of direction all made the eyes of European scouts brighten. .

Especially after seeing the 21-year-old age on Li Huayun's profile, although this performance is a bit worse than Ren Zhihui, but if he can play in Europe, do you still have to ask?

Manchester United's scout directly gave a three-star rating. He believed that Li Huayun would never be worse than Gu Guangming, but the age difference between the two was five years, which meant that Li Huayun's potential was far stronger than Gu Guangming's. bright.

Many German scouts have taken a fancy to Zhang Anhong, and they now trust the high center forward produced in China.

Strictly speaking, Wu Jie is also a high center forward. Liu Haiguang and Chen Jingang also performed well in their respective teams. This is their source of confidence.

This Zhang Anhong has an astonishing height of 192cm, and his weight seems to be a little light, but this is related to his age, which is not a big problem. What is really rare is that his foot skills are not as rough as traditional high center forwards, and his mobility is also very flexible.

If you add the Chinese center's consistently excellent header, the potential of this player is definitely stronger than Liu Haiguang and the South Korean Cha Bum-geun.

Soon, Wei Xinghua on the left also claimed this corridor as his own.

This 19-year-old genius, who has been suppressed by Ren Zhihui, has a three-and-a-half-star physical talent, excellent explosive power and speed. The team is watching.

The Indian players felt an illusion of being ignored. Although they were conceded 6 goals by the Chinese team in the first half, it cannot be said that the Chinese team did not pay attention to them.

But the Indian players on the field still have a feeling of being underestimated and ignored, because this is the most annoying and sensitive feeling for them, and they can never be mistaken.

This is indeed true, because these Chinese players really did not regard them as opponents.

Today they are not so much playing against the Indian team as they are playing for the European scouts on site.

This is actually a bit helpless and even sad for Chinese football, because it is impossible to retain talents.

But this is also inevitable in the historical stage. After China stepped out of the planned economy, it is inevitable to look at money. This is the case for scientific researchers, and athletes are no exception. After all, everyone needs food, clothing, housing, transportation, and families. These requirements are also higher.

Therefore, this situation cannot be avoided in three to 40 years. Only when the national economy develops to a certain scale, only when there are Huawei, Ali, and Tencent in China, which cannot be counted by two hands, and only when the income of the Chinese Super League reaches the level of the five major leagues, then it will naturally be possible. It is easy to keep all talents in China, otherwise I really think that talents are willing to be discriminated against abroad. If some choose, who doesn't want to return to China to show their talents!

But now Chen Jingang and Shen Xiangfu play in the Bundesliga for two or three years, which is an astronomical sum for most Chinese.

If this situation does not rely on some restrictions, such as prohibiting players under the age of 25 from playing abroad, then the domestic league will not be able to run at all.

For the Indian team, today is indeed a complete humiliation, because not only did the Chinese players not treat them as opponents, they almost stopped treating them as human beings.

Of course, not many people will see the truth, and Indian players just feel ignored.

The worst thing is that they don't know that their weak chickens have created an illusion that is enough to confuse European scouts, which can be regarded as an indirect assist for Chinese players.

In the second half, Zhang Anhong, Wei Xinghua, Li Huajun, and Wang Dongning were undoubtedly the most dazzling players on the field, but this is all thanks to the great foil of the Indian players, who have maintained the level of 62 years as always.

Just take Zhang Anhong as an example here. He is enough to replace Chen Jingang, but the upper limit is definitely not as good as Liu Haiguang. The reason is that the confrontation ability is insufficient, and the explosive power and speed are not fast enough. This is a high-level player who focuses on agility and technology. center.

However, the Indian players didn't think so. When they saw Zhang Anhong's height, they thought he was a tactical center forward, so they sent a tall defender who was good at defending high-altitude balls to target him.

The Indian defender is also more than 1.9 meters tall and weighs more than 90 kilograms, but he is not strong but a bit puffy. His mobility almost made Zhang Anhong laugh out loud.

The most painful thing is that this person doesn't even have a good confrontation ability. Indian players have never exercised their core muscles, and they are still at the primitive stage of only looking at height and weight.

Zhang Anhong is naturally very comfortable facing this kind of opponent. The stupid big man on the opposite side is just a stupid bear in front of him, which makes him flexible and agile, and his excellent dribbling characteristics are brought into full play. Passing people and riding a bicycle, this really does not treat the opponent as a human being at all.

But these tricks made the European scouts on the scene very excited. Many people even gave the evaluation of the low-profile version of Wu Jie. Who knows if they drank the Ganges water brought by Indian players from China.

The Chinese coaching staff all know that Zhang Anhong's miraculous performance is mainly based on the premise that the opponent is too weak. When he faced Cui Yonghua and Jia Xiuquan in internal training, he couldn't play these tricks at all. Instead, he was not caught by the ball. If it is broken, it means being surrounded, otherwise why can't even Chen Jingang squeeze through, because it's flashy!

Most of the other players in this Chinese team have the same reasoning. Wei Xinghua and Li Huajun are both three-star and a half-star physical talents. Their explosive power and speed will not have an advantage in League One. Even with the excellent skills trained in China. Just barely make a start in the relegation team of League One. After all, the skills of League One players are not really that bad.

But facing the Indian defenders at this moment, their breakthrough on the wing seems to be more incomprehensible than Ren Zhihui. All kinds of showy operations are completely casual, and the opponent can't give them any pressure at all.

Wang Dongning, a tank-type all-around player, couldn't compete in the World Cup at all, but he was able to show invincible confrontation ability against Indian players. Those seemingly strong Indian players did not have qualified dynamic confrontation ability at all, even if their physique Wang Dongning is stronger and basically free.

This big man from Shandong was running around in disorder, and everywhere he went was basically a mess, he was crazy!

Tan Haishan and Zhu Bo, the center line of defense, also performed impeccably.

The Indian players' poor skills and stupid play style, facing the defense line tortured by Wu Jie and Chen Haonan, it was as accurate as Meituan Ele.me.

These European scouts also know that Asian teams are good except for China, but they are still confused by the outstanding Chinese players in front of them. How can they all be geniuses?

Li Fenglou is naturally the happiest. He knows that after this Asian Cup, there will definitely be a lot of dollars to earn.

But he didn't know that the Ministry of Sports was about to introduce an age limit for going abroad. These were the last batch of players who could go abroad at will. If they wanted to go abroad before the age of 25 next year, they had to meet the genius clause.

The final score was very worthy of the level of the two sides. An 11:0 sweep made the Indians seem to return to 1962. The two sides perfectly staged a classic old show of "reappearing yesterday".

Zhang Anhong completed a hat-trick in this game, Wei Xinghua, Li Huajun, Wang Dongning, Wu Qunli scored one goal each, and another striker Ma Lin also scored three goals quietly.

In fact, the one with the highest human grain limit is Marin. His physical talent was originally only two and a half stars, so as long as the intensity of the game is high, his performance will be limited.

But Marin's physical talent has long been promoted to three and a half stars by Wu Jie. At this time, coupled with his excellent running ability, ability to grab points, and increasingly exquisite shooting skills, his template is obviously Lineker or Inzaghi This type of point-grabbing shooter is likely to replace Zhao Dayu in the next few years.

After the Chinese team swept India to get off to a good start, they faced their old rival South Korea in the second game.

This time it was not so easy. After being taught how to behave by them a few years ago, these guys have begun to learn how the Chinese team plays.

Of course, Bangzi also wants to study in China, but the problem is that they have no money!

Among the disciples of the Chinese team, which one is not spending money like water, which one is not so rich?

Although there are a few chaebols in this club, if the 80s want to compare themselves with the local tyrants in the Middle East, they will be humiliating themselves.

So the poor guy can only look at the video and those painful memories to explore by himself.

But they did not have the advanced training methods provided by Wu Jie, nor did they have the correct guidance of the trio as if they were teachers. The most important thing is that Chinese football has natural institutional advantages...

These things can't be imitated at all, and many of them can't even copy the answers in front of you, so of course it is difficult to achieve any effect in this kind of self-study.

The current Nanbang has made some achievements in physical fitness, which is the easiest to practice, but not only has no results in skills and tactics, but has side effects due to overthrowing the seedlings.

The Chinese team has an absolute advantage in tactics, technology, and body, so after finding out the details of the stick that the three tricks can't reach, they quickly took advantage of it.

But the score of 4:0 in the end also shows that no matter how unbearable Nanbau is, it is still much better than the third brother, at least it will not come to play with a fat body.

If it weren't for Fu Yubin's outstanding performance in front of the goal, Nanbang would even have a chance to score.

But it's a pity that this good-looking goalkeeper didn't give Bangzi any chance. The few threatening shots they had were all blocked by Fu Yubin's high-speed defense. The third goalkeeper of the Chinese team finally began to gain attention.

In the third game, the Chinese team once again met the big disciple Kuwait team.

This big apprentice has been ranked second in Asia in recent years, but this position is already a bit unstable. After all, it is a small country with a limited population. The key is that the royal family of Kuwait does not care about youth training and the construction of the lower class, which makes Kuwait Football is bound to suffer from a lack of success.

If it weren't for the advantage of being the first to learn from a teacher, they have been receiving the world's top training in the past few years, and they are playing the highest level of warm-up matches in Asia. Like the Hong Kong team, they have been squeezed out of the ranks of the top Asian teams.

The Chinese team also felt that the difficulty of playing Kuwait was actually less than that of playing Nanban, but the final score of 2:1 made the big disciples very proud, because this is already a narrow defeat!This is a narrow defeat in front of the Chinese team!

Li Fenglou is very satisfied with this result. Although the above explained that they should let go of playing, but of course this kind of big customers should be treated differently, otherwise a 5-0 kick, wouldn't it mean spending millions of dollars in tuition fees a year? Is the result not as good as that of Nanbang's self-study?

Therefore, any team that has paid tuition fees, regardless of whether they have learned the real skills or not, they must at least let someone score a goal, and they must be able to get by on the scene, so that they can keep flowing.

Needless to say, the royal family of Kuwait was very satisfied with the process and results of this battle, and even shouted that the several million tuition fees spent this year were too worthwhile, otherwise Japan and South Korea would be the end!

The last opponent of the Chinese team in the group stage is Iran, which has always wanted to come to apprentice, but is forced to go to war and has no time to take care of him.

But the Chinese team said: No matter what reason you have, since you didn't come to pay for your apprenticeship, you can only be hit hard by me.
