Chapter 179 Journey to China 2...

Beijing Guoan sits in Fengti and ushered in a friendly match with Munich 1860.

The CCTV sports channel broadcast the friendly match live. The commentators for the match were CCTV host Duan Xuan and former international footballer Xu Yang.

After getting the starting rosters of the two teams, both of them were taken aback. After looking at each other, they smiled in unison.

Not a smile of joy, but a smile of embarrassment.

Because on this starting list, the formation of Munich 1860 and Beijing Guoan is too unexpected-the former has a full main lineup, and even the player positions are exactly the same as in the Europa League final in May, while Guoan ?The starting players were either substitutes or young players from the second team. Even if Duan Xuan and Xu Yang thought about it carefully, they could only vaguely remember a few of them, and most of the others had no impression.

Let Xiao Xiami challenge the big crocodile, what do the top national security officials think?

"Probably out of embarrassment." Former international footballer Xu Yang obviously has a better understanding of the methods of Chinese Super League clubs: "Guoan is considered the top team in the Chinese Super League. If you compare a first-class team like Munich 1860, you will lose as many times as you play. If you play all the main players, you will lose, and if you play all the substitutes, you will lose. If all the main players are abused, Guoan will definitely be ridiculed by other teams in the future, but If you let the small players who are not strong enough to play the game, even if they score five or six goals, it has nothing to do with the first team——This is probably what the senior management of the Guoan Club thinks.”

While speaking, music was already playing in the stadium, and players from Munich 1860 and Beijing Guoan came out holding the hands of the little caddy.

Every time the Lions star slowly walked out of the player tunnel waved to the stands, the fans screamed wildly. In stark contrast to this, the Guoan players, who have the advantage of home court, did not wave to the fans. In exchange for how many cheers.

Because even their own fans were whispering to each other in the stands: "Hey, who is that kid with a cut cut, a young face, and no hair?"

"I haven't seen him in the game before."

"I saw him in training with the team, he seemed to be a player from the second team."

"Where's Tiago? Where's Tao Wei? Where's Xu Yunlong? Not even Yang Hao, why is there only one goalkeeper Yang Zhi in the main team?"

In the studio, Duan Xuan racked his brains and finally found a good excuse for coach Guoan: "Guoan's substitute players and young players finally have a good opportunity to train themselves, haha."

……

10 minutes before the game, in the home team locker room of Fengti Center.

When the starting list of Munich 1860 came out, some people were happy and some were worried.

The ones who are worried are naturally those substitute players who haven't even played a few games in the serious Chinese Super League. They are preparing for the game anxiously, and their hearts will speed up every time.

Those main players who couldn't play were secretly glad: they couldn't fight horizontally or vertically, and as long as they played, they would be ashamed. Fortunately, I didn't share in the embarrassment this time.

Among all the main players, there is only one goalkeeper, Yang Zhi, with a gloomy expression: NND, are you planning to kill me by sending these people to play with me?

The head coach of Guoan is actually not happy.

In fact, he does not agree with the high-level arrangement. As a Chinese Super League coach, he does not want to miss such a precious opportunity to play against European teams, and use this year's Europa League champion to test the quality of his team , is what he has been looking forward to in his dreams.

It's a pity that the high-level executives made it clear: "The team will compete for the Super League championship this year. If a quasi-championship team is beaten and has no power to fight back, do you want us to be called a big joke in this year's Super League? Substitutes! All arrangements for substitutes and Players from the second team played, but all the main players did not attend, as an excuse, they said that they had to prepare for the league next week, and there was no time to play friendly matches this week.”

Looking at the little players in front of him who were so nervous that they didn't know where to put their hands and feet, the Guoan coach sighed: How will he play this game!

……

In the visiting team's locker room, Karl was studying with a piece of paper.

Shao Jiayi's face was very bad, he secretly glanced at the boss, hesitant to speak several times.

Foreigners look at the names of Chinese people in square characters. Those who don't know the Chinese Super League don't know the tricks on this list. He, a former Guoan player, still can't see it?

Do you want to tell the boss?

If you don't say it, you are disloyal to the boss, but if you say it, what will the boss and teammates think after learning the truth?What will they think of Beijing Guoan?

Shao Jia felt as if suddenly there were more scales in his heart. The new master and the old master were placed on both sides, and the scales swayed from side to side, which made him almost worried to death.

Just when Shao Jiayi was in a dilemma, he saw his boss suddenly raised his eyebrows and showed an indescribable smile.

"This game." The Lions coach flicked the paper in his hand: "Everyone, go all out."

Shao Jiayi suddenly felt that the boss already knew everything without having to confess.

……

"Ding Yehua dribbled the ball forward... Hummels intercepted from the backcourt...Ding Yehua passed the ball into the penalty area, and Hummels stabbed it but failed...Is this Guoan's chance? Oops! Dante Make a big foot clearance at the front of the restricted area!"

"The football flew to the midfield, Beckham...Ozil took the ball from the left and broke through...Hao Qiang went up to meet him, can he intercept the ball from under Ozil's feet?"

"Hao Qiang tackled the ball! Oops, he missed the tackle. Ozil suddenly accelerated and swayed past him before he got off the ground. Hao Qiang lost his center of gravity and slipped to the ground...His defensive action is typical of the Chinese Super League The defense is too simple and rough, with nothing but brute force and no skill.”

"Ozil broke into the penalty area with the ball and made a diagonal pass! The football flew to the middle of the penalty area, Portillo suddenly accelerated, and after reaching the ball, he volleyed, 0:1! Yang Zhi couldn't react in time, and Munich 1860 took the lead."

"In the 9th minute, it was another opportunity for Munich 1860. Beckham made a long pass to the left, Lars made a pass from the bottom, Owen got an excellent shot in the penalty area and he was easy. After adjusting his shooting posture, he raised his right foot and shot...Yang Zhi threw himself to the right of the goal...the football flew to the middle of the goal!"

"0:2! Guoan has fallen behind by two goals."

"Only 10 minutes have passed since the start of the game, but the offense of Munich 1860 is like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves. Not only is Guoan unable to fight back, but it is also very difficult to parry the whole game. Is this the strength of this year's Europa League champion? This is it Is there a gap between Chinese football and European football?"

After a pause, Duan Xuan issued a final call: "I don't want to see the next game become a unilateral massacre in Munich 1860. The senior management of Guoan should wake up and send the main players in the team as much as possible, and then put their hearts into it." Learning from our opponents—playing a high-level game against 1860 Munich will definitely bring more progress to these players than playing a dozen domestic league games. We have precious opportunities right in front of us, and we must cherish them.”

Duan Xuan's words resonated with countless fans in front of the TV.

It's a pity that under the glances of the cameras and fans, the high-level national security officials in the VIP box stood still, and their expressions were calm, as if they didn't see that their team's defense line had been penetrated by their opponents.

……

Ronaldo yawned.

It's boring, the game is boring.

He saw it from the moment Portillo scored the first goal: This is simply a one-sided massacre.

Munich 1860 did not relax at all because of weak opponents, but concentrated on playing the game, concentrating on... abusing food.

Only the expressions and performances of the Lions players were picked out for people to see, and it was believed that they were playing in the Champions League.

And what about the Guoan players?They were abused ignorantly. Most of them were confused by the opponent's high-speed running and coordination. Just rushing forward with a dull head, trying to be a lone hero, but in the end he became a lonely bear, or he did not cooperate well with his teammates, did not form an overall tactic, and still lost an excellent opportunity at the last moment.

Ronaldo didn't know the tricks of Guoan's starting roster. He thought the Chinese Super League team was of this level.

"No wonder China has a population of more than one billion, but it is still called a football desert. Even the top domestic leagues are like this, so you can imagine the level of the low-level leagues and youth training." ' Ronaldo thought seriously.

The one-sided game really did not arouse his interest, Ronaldo began to look around.

A Chinese woman sitting on the right caught his attention.

Since the start of the game, this woman has been watching him. At first Ronaldo focused on the game and didn't care.

So he also looked back with presumptuous eyes, and at the same time thought complacently in his heart, "I'm calling it 'treating others in the same way'." (Chinese idiom taught by Karl)

Ronaldo's undisguised direct gaze obviously startled the woman. She first retracted her gaze as if avoiding it. After hesitating for a while, she looked back and nodded to Ronaldo with a smile.

Ronaldo looked at her chin.

The color of the lip gloss on this woman's mouth, it seems...it seems...

It's like roast duck.

The color of brown sugar is oily, fat and tender.

Pick up a slice and put it in the lotus leaf cake, add a cucumber dipped in sauce (he doesn't like green onions), roll it up, take a bite, the salty fragrance is slightly sweet, it is the best taste of all the ducks he has ever eaten of.

Thinking of the delicious food he ate last night, Ronaldo sucked his saliva.

Ronaldo rubbed his stomach, turned his head around, and thought: I'm hungry, let's continue eating roast duck tonight.

The woman showed her signature smile that fascinated many suitors, but she didn't get a conversation. She was a little disappointed: it was like winking for a blind man.

……

At the end of the first half, Guoan had fallen behind 0:4.

Four goals have been conceded in just 45 minutes of the game. If Guoan doesn't want to make progress and is conceded ten goals after the game is over, will the Chinese people lose face?

The fans couldn't bear it anymore and shouted in unison during the intermission: "Coach SB! Substitute now!" "Coach SB! Substitute now!"

The sound even penetrated several layers of walls and floated to the visiting team's locker room.

Shao Jia blushed instantly.

Other players were very puzzled: "What are the fans outside shouting?"

"Little rascal? The Chinese also sing this song?"

"Why do they keep calling Xiao Laipi?"

The little raspy that the Lions players refer to is a German children's song "Schnappi" that has been popular in Europe in the past two years. Everyone from the elderly to the children in Germany can hum a few words. The story of the Egyptian crocodile, the word Schnappi can easily be heard as "SB" when read together, and there are several lyrics in the whole song transliterated into Chinese like this: "You are that SB, SBSBSB."

The innocent and innocent faces of the players made Carl's stomach hurt with a smile: "It's not the little rascal, it's SB."

The players listened carefully and protested, "I'm calling you little rascal."

"It's the little Laipi."

"What is SB?"

"Hmm." Carl touched his chin and said meaningfully, "It's a very uncivilized word."

"How uncivilized?"

"Does it mean the same as Shit?"

Carl raised his hand to cover his mouth, and coughed twice: "It tastes a little stronger than this word."

Shao Jia didn't feel embarrassed early in the morning. He was watching his teammates embarrassing the boss with relish.Unexpectedly, Karl glanced at him next, and ordered: "Jiayi, you are the one who understands this word best among us, explain it to them."

Shao Jia's joy gave way to sorrow, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but now he also collapsed.

The former Guoan player, a local aborigine who has a deep understanding of Beijing curse, so he conducted a detailed science popularization to his teammates on the word "SB".

The Lions players who learned the truth felt bad about themselves.

How will they face the song "Schnappi" in the future!

……

In the second half, 1860 Munich made a large number of substitutions, but all of them were the main players.

Guoan also made substitutions, but they still use substitute players for rotation.

The Guoan coach shouted "SB" in the audience very calmly, and his on-the-spot command was not affected at all, and he probably has been through battles for a long time.

After 50 minutes of the game, Guoan fans also saw that the team had no intention of sending the main players on the field. They shut up and stopped using aggressive methods, but completely turned to Munich 1860 and began to cheer for their opponents.

After 60 minutes, Guoan players, who usually do not train intensively, could no longer support the high-speed game rhythm of the Lions. Three consecutive players suffered from calf cramps.

So Guoan continued to make substitutions, and after the game restarted, 1860 Munich also slowed down a bit in cooperation, but the goals like chopping melons and vegetables continued.

In the 61st minute, Ozil sent an exquisite direct pass from the left, Portillo broke into the penalty area, passed three defenders in a row and then raised his foot to hit the goal. .With a total score of 0:5, Portillo completed a hat-trick.

In the 67th minute, Khedira crossed the ball to Beckham, and Beckham dribbled the ball to break through to Guoan's half.

The commentator Duan Xuan shouted hoarsely in the studio: "Beckham has slowed down, this is a great time to steal the ball! His speed is already slow enough and now it is even slower! Cheng Yuelei and Zhang Yonghai are now speeding up to catch up. The timing is just right , I will definitely be able to intercept the ball before Beckham passes or shoots! Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up! Plus—”

Duan Xuan's voice seemed to be cut off suddenly.

On the field, Beckham had just slid the ball slowly to Irving. Owen adjusted his shooting position in a comfortable position and directly raised his foot to volley.

Yang Zhi has made at least dozens of saves since the beginning of the game. Even though he is physically strong, he is also a little out of breath at the moment. A quick shot from close range can't save him at all, so he can only watch the football brush against his fingertips again. Fly into the net.

With a total score of 0:6, Irving scored twice.

In the 75th minute, Munich 1860 pushed forward across the board. Lass dribbled the ball from the right and broke through continuously.

Shao Jiayi showed his superb ball skills in front of his former owner. After passing two people in a row, he picked the ball into the penalty area.

This is the last goal of the game.

The score was finally fixed at 0:7.

Munich 1860 completed Hedy, while Beijing Guoan was forced to drink the bitter drink.

……

Apart from the fact that Beijing Guoan sent substitutes to play in the game because they were afraid that the entire main lineup would be a sieve, which caused them to be ridiculed by the media recently, the friendly match of 1860 Munich ended happily.

For the fans, they watched a moisture-free abuse game, and every pore of their bodies felt extremely refreshed.

Any fan who has watched the Bundesliga live broadcast can see how serious 1860 Munich played in this game. They did not release water because it was a commercial friendly match, but took out their hard work in the Bundesliga. The strength, the main force, the real sword and the real gun.

The high-level play and performance of the Lions made the fans feel happy. They just spent the ticket money for a friendly match, and watched a game that did not lose the ordinary Bundesliga level at their doorstep, and they were able to compete with the stars they dreamed of. It was so worth it to get up close and personal!

The organizer Beijing Shibo International Sports Events Co., Ltd., established in 2005, is the owner of many sports venues including the Bird's Nest and the Water Cube for the Beijing Olympic Games. When they hosted the Munich 1860 China Tour, they were originally just I wanted to make a name for myself and pave the way for next year's Olympic Games on the international stage, but I didn't expect to make a lot of money—although the European teams that have traveled to China in the past few years are like crucian carp, the organizers are making a lot of money. There are not many companies that make money, many of them just maintain a capital guarantee, and there are also those who lose money and make money. Shibo Company did not consider the Workers' Stadium that can accommodate more than 5 people when deciding the stadium, but chose only more than 3 people. A body enhancement center with only one seat is worried about losing money.

Who knew that Bundesliga fans, who usually don't show off in the country, are so awesome when it comes to critical moments. Not only did they sell more than 3000 public training tickets, but even more than 3 game tickets were sold out!

The organizers are so excited that they want to sign another commercial contract with 1860 Munich, or directly invite Bayern Munich to test the water next year.

In the summer when there were no top European events to broadcast, the match between 1860 Munich and Guoan set a peak in the ratings of CCTV Sports Channel in the past two months.

The several commercial activities that 1860 Munich has concluded have been a great success, which gives the club the confidence to make persistent efforts to develop the Asian market.

The media has been copying things about China since Munich 1860 came to Beijing a week ago. Now almost two weeks have passed and they can still find new topics to report. Newspapers always sell out.

Later, when the media summarized the China tour of major European clubs, they called the arrival of Munich 07 in the summer of 1860 a "blue and white boom."

……

In order to reward the excellent performance of the players in the game, Karl decided to treat the whole team to supper.

Everyone on the team went, no one was absent, because they knew that there were not many opportunities to let themselves eat and drink.

For the sake of competitive status, professional players should usually eat abstinently to prevent a significant increase in weight. The Lions players know that when they finish all business activities, the first thing they do after returning to Germany is to be dragged to the physical examination room by the team doctors to weigh themselves. And what awaited them after that was definitely a tasteless nutrition menu and diet control recommendations... Before meeting the cruel fate, they ate all they could eat and want to eat!

People who need to control their weight all the year round always have a grateful heart when enjoying delicious food.

And Karl, when the team bus was heading to a famous indoor restaurant, he was teaching his players how to show kindness to others: "Thank you in Chinese means Danke, you already know it, and you are very proficient in saying it. In German, when we want to express more thanks, there are SchnstenDank, RechtherzlichenDank, IchbinIhnensehrdankbar... Chinese is profound and complex, and there are more phrases to express gratitude..."

"Boss, teach us a word of Chinese!"

"Okay, let me think about it." Carl really closed his eyes and thought for a while, then opened his eyes and said: "There is such a sentence, when you want to express a very complicated thank you that is difficult to explain in ordinary words, This sentence is either not used, or it will produce a very amazing effect, this sentence is-thank you, my family."

"Xie-xie-li-quan-ga?"

"It's xie-xie-ni-quan-jia."

"Xie-xie-ni-quan-jia?"

"correct!"

"Boss, what does this sentence mean?"

"It means thanking the other party very, very much."

A few players gathered around Carl silently recited it a few times, and suddenly smiled at him together: "Boss, thank you all!"

Shao Jiayi coughed violently.

Karl originally wanted to tease his disciples, but he didn't expect to be molested first. After a few seconds, he nodded under the expectant eyes of the players, and said weakly: "Okay, I represent my whole family. Thank you for your thanks."

Shao Jiayi silently turned his head to the car window, and then began to rub his stomach violently.
