Chapter 732 “Blessed Land” Jincheng


Chapter 732 "Blessed Land" Jincheng

"Come on, come on!" Lin Zhiyuan pounded the turf in front of him hard.

Not far from him, Hu Lai waved his fist and then high-fived his teammates who came up to him.

This is Hu Lai's first intra-team group match after returning to the national team. The goal he just scored was his third goal, showing a good competitive state. It seems that regardless of the time difference or eleven The hour-long flight didn't bother him much.

Goalkeeper Lin Zhiyuan, who had three goals scored by Hu Lai, was very sad and angry. Even if he was scored by Hu Lai in the group stage of the Olympic team, why is it still the same drama when he comes to the national team?

I finally joined the national team. I first sent a 500-yuan "upgrade" red envelope in the National Olympic team group, and then sent another 500-yuan red envelope for newcomers to the pier in the national team group, and sent them out one after another. One thousand yuan, just to come to the national team and serve as a backdrop for Hu Lai? !

Shi Wuyin and Li Zhifei on the sidelines pretended not to see Lin Zhiyuan's embarrassment and were very satisfied with Hu Lai's performance.

Taking advantage of the absence of reporters, the two coaches could also smile a little - there were reporters on the sidelines before, and they both had straight faces, as if their enemy was nervous at the moment.

The enemy is indeed present, and they are all approaching the city.

Nervous is really nervous.

But the two of them behaved in front of the media cameras somewhat deliberately.

They want to show weakness to their enemies.

If you can pretend to be a coward, you must do so. Wouldn't it be profitable if you could make the Korean team underestimate the enemy a little bit?

What's more, they are not playing the Korean team.

The Korean team ranked first in the group and qualified for the World Cup two rounds ahead of schedule. What about our Chinese team? Fourth in the group, I don’t even know if I can get third in the group.

The Korean national team has a total of seven overseas players, although only three have returned this time. But the Chinese team only has one overseas player, Hu Lai.

Simply pitiful, helpless and weak...

"The effect of Hu Lai's training in the Premier League is really obvious. He is already the only one in the national team. It has only been nine months... Sure enough, our players should still go out." Shi Wuyin watched Hu Lai training After his performance, he nodded approvingly.

Li Zhifei sighed: "But looking at it this way, the gap between us and the real football powers is really disappointing... I still remember how fiercely Hu Lai fought with Yao Huasheng in the Chinese Super League. He wanted to advance under Yao Huasheng's defense. It’s not easy to score so many goals, and now it feels like he can completely overwhelm the best central defender in our country..."

"Don't be discouraged. Hu Lai has made a good start for Chinese football. Next is our work. We must strive to participate in this World Cup so that those young people can be seen by the world four years earlier. Maybe they can It will change their careers and the future of Chinese football," Shi Wuyin said with a smile.

"It's hard to even get out of the Asian region after all the hard work. So if we really go to the World Cup, why don't we end up thousands of miles away?" Li Zhifei said half-jokingly.

"That's better than nothing. A phoenix's tail is just the tail of a phoenix, and a chicken's head is just the head of a chicken. In any case, a phoenix is ​​better than a chicken - you're ranked last in the World Cup, and in Asia too It can go sideways, and a country's football level development and performance. The excitement is inseparable. As long as we can go to the World Cup, it will be of great help to the development of domestic football." Shi Wuyuan looked at the competing international players on the court and said, "Our mission is to educate football players across the country. See hope.”

"You, you just love talking about these big words. What grew into a big tree before, now you see hope... first think of a way to win the Korean team, but if you lose, there will be no hope at all."
< br>

Listening to his partner's complaints, Shi Wuyuan smiled and asked: "Lao Li, do you know why the Football Association chose to play the Korean team here in Jincheng?"

How could Li Zhifei not know what Shi Wuyuan wanted to say?

"You're not going to talk about the match between Shining Stars and Seoul LG, are you? Let me tell you, these are all rumors from outside, and the Football Association has never admitted it..."

"I have never admitted it. But I always feel that this must be the reason why they finally considered letting Jincheng host this game, or one of the reasons. After all, if you play a Korean team here, you may have some good luck... Look, Lao Li, aren’t the Korean team officials currently troubled by various rumors about Park Suntae’s physical condition? This will definitely affect their preparation plans to some extent.”

As he spoke, he looked up at the sky.

Li Zhifei followed him and looked towards the sky.

There's no such thing as clear clouds and clear blue sky, because it's cloudy in Jincheng today.

The weather was still completely different from that time. At least there was no sudden change from day to night, no lightning, thunder, or violent storm.

But I believe that at this moment, everyone in the Korean national team may have a thick dark cloud hanging over their hearts...

※※※

The Chinese team's top 12 matches take place in different places, taking turns to play home games. Therefore, when the Chinese team played home games in the top 12, they would play one game at a time and change places.

The disadvantage of this is that the national team does not have a fixed preparation environment. Every time it changes to a different division team, competition venue, hotel, logistics supply, etc., it has to be adjusted again. In fact, it is not very beneficial to preparations.

But the national team still insists on doing this, because sometimes football is not just about football itself.

China is so big and has so many cities. If you only allow the national team to play a fixed home stadium in one city, what will the fans in other cities think?

Oh, the fans in that city are Chinese fans. Are we not Chinese fans? Don’t we deserve to watch the national team games live?

Allowing domestic cities to take turns playing home games is also to promote football and expand the influence of the national football team in the country.

When the top 12 tournament schedule first came out, major cities in the country actively applied to host the top 12 tournament.

Anton Jincheng has made every effort to bid to host the Chinese team’s last home game in the top 12 competition - the ninth round of the top 12 competition, where the home game will be played against the South Korean team.

Finally got his wish.

After all, as the best division of the Chinese Super League last season, wouldn’t it be ironic if it couldn’t even host the national team?

But there are rumors that Jincheng’s successful bid has a lot to do with the AFC Champions League group match that Anton Shining Star played here against the Korean team Seoul LG - what happened before that AFC Champions League game? , everyone knows that it has been mentioned by countless people on the Internet:

It's like there is God's will in the dark.

Jincheng, which was going well in early spring, unexpectedly ushered in an extremely rare thunderstorm, causing Seoul LG's plane to divert to a heavy mountain, and then took a bus and high-speed train to reach Jincheng.

After finally settling down...another earthquake happened that everyone in Jincheng was accustomed to, which scared the Seoul LG players who had never seen the world.

The official has never acknowledged this speculation, and the Jincheng Football Association even went so far as to refute the rumors. It is said that our Jincheng division applied to host the match between the Chinese team and the Korean team, relying on the excellent hardware facilities and good and thoughtful service guarantee of our provincial sports center, as well as the concerted efforts of our government and the Football Association to work together, Jincheng, and even Anton The fans are so passionate, and they deserve the title of the best division in the Chinese Super League... It is definitely not based on some "metaphysics"!

But it’s no use. The broad masses of the people like to hear and hear what is said on the Internet.

Passing it on has a bit of a meaning of "people's opinions lead to gold".

Many people believe that perhaps Jincheng is really a "blessed place" for the Chinese team that challenges the South Korean team.

And recent events seem to prove everyone's judgment.

It has been one night since Park Soon-tae was taken away by an ambulance at the airport. This incident is spreading more and more widely, and its impact is getting bigger and bigger. Various details on the Internet are mixed, making it difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

Some people say that the brother of his next-door neighbor’s second uncle’s son’s classmate’s third uncle works at Dongsheng Airport and saw Park Soon-tae being lifted off the plane by doctors and nurses.

Another person said that he was waiting at Dongsheng Airport that day, and through the glass wall he saw doctors and nurses pushing stretcher carts hurriedly past in the passage behind the wall. He also noticed a detail, that is, Park Suntae's hands were shaking all the time. This person concluded from this that the "Light of Asia" must have suffered from epilepsy.

Immediately afterwards, news about Park Suntae's epileptic seizure spread overwhelmingly on the Internet...

There are also angry Korean fans and some Korean media accusing Park Suntae of epilepsy because of Hu Lai. Because there is news that Park Suntae’s seat next to him on the plane was Hu Lai!

So Park Suntae was in good health, but I had never heard of him having any history of epilepsy. Why did he suddenly have an epileptic seizure?

That must be Hu Lai's fault!

On the one hand, Hu Lai was worried that a healthy Park Soon-tae would become the Chinese team's enemy in this game. On the other hand, Hu Lai also saw that the "Light of Asia" Park Soon-tae was above him in terms of fame and honor, which made him unhappy, so he used Such despicable means and tricks.

The Chinese people will do anything to win, which is shameful and disgusting!

Ever since Hu Lai scored five goals in three games last season and the Chinese fans went to compete with the Korean fans, the relationship between the fans of the two countries has been particularly tense and is at a stage of explosion.

Now Park Soon-tae's sudden accident has heightened the national sentiment of Korean fans. They are provoking Chinese fans on the Internet. Naturally, Chinese fans are not to be outdone, and the war is raging for a while.

"I don't have epilepsy!"

Facing the team's head coach Yang Zhongxun in front of him, Park Soon-tae explained eagerly: "I can assure you, coach, that I don't have epilepsy 100%! I was just too sleepy and tired at the time, so I fell asleep. I was always in high spirits on the way here. I was in a state of high tension, so I relaxed as soon as I landed... just a little, uh, completely.”

After listening to Park Soon-tae's explanation, South Korean national team coach Yang Zhongxun glanced at the screen of his mobile phone calmly.

It had just finished playing a video shot by a passerby at the airport. The content of the video was exactly the scene of Park Soon-tae lying on a stretcher and being pushed away.

Previously, through the video, you could clearly see that Park Suntae’s hands hanging outside the car were indeed shaking...

Park Soon-tae naturally noticed the head coach's action, and he also knew exactly what the head coach cared about.

He could only point to the phone screen and said: "My hands were shaking because the car was vibrating. I fell asleep at the time and couldn't control my body..."

Yang Zhongxun then put down his cell phone, and then said to Park Chuntai: "Chuntai... the results of the hospital's physical examination are out, your injuries..."

Park Soon-tae was heartbroken. He knew that he did not have epilepsy, so he was confident on this issue. But he also knew that his injuries were not 100% healed, and he still felt guilty.

"You obviously know that it's not over yet, right?" Yang Zhongxun guessed Park Chun Tai's thoughts as soon as he saw the change in Park Chun Tai's expression.

Park Suntae did not answer, but the attitude itself was already an answer. After all, he just answered the question very simply as to whether he had epilepsy.

"This is how I see it personally, Chun Tai. We have already obtained the right to participate in the World Cup in advance. From the beginning, I planned to use this game to train young people. After all, we need to give young people experience in a game of sufficient importance... ...But you insisted on coming back to participate in the game, and I agreed. This time, including you and overseas players, we only recruited three people..."

When Yang Zhongxun said this, Pu Chuntai sat upright the whole time without interrupting, and his attitude was very respectful.

The man in front of him was his childhood idol, the eldest brother of Korean football, and the main contributor who helped the Korean team finish fourth in the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup. After retiring, he joined the coaching world. Before becoming the head coach of the national team, he led the Korean club team Seoul LG to win the AFC Champions League. His resume as a head coach is as dazzling as his career as a professional player.

So although Park Soon Tae is the "Light of Asia" now, in front of Yang Zhongxun, he is just a younger brother.

When Yang Zhongxun spoke to him in such an unceremonious tone, he did not dare to have any dissatisfaction.

"But recruiting you doesn't mean you have to play in the game. We didn't say that at the beginning. Right?"

Park Suntae pursed her lips and nodded.

"I personally hope that you, Cui Xuanhong, and Liu Mingyuan, the three of you, can give full play to your leading role, guard the locker room, and stop those young people from messing around."

"Don't worry, coach. I won't make any mistakes in this regard." Pu Chuntai agreed with a correct attitude. "But I..."

He still wanted to fight for himself.

Seeing this, Yang Zhongxun, who had always been serious before, laughed: "I understand. So even though you are on the bench, you still have to be ready to play at any time. After all, my goal is to train the team, not to lose the game."< br>


The boss has already said this, what else can Park Soon-tae say?

His shoulders relaxed slightly and he lowered his head to show determination: "Don't worry, coach. I can play at any time!"

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Yang Zhongxun's tone became more relaxed: "After all, we have qualified early, and I don't want your injury to get worse. You still have a heavy task at London Bridge. Are you going to play in the Champions League when you go back?" ”

"Yes, Coach."

"Come on, Suntae. You are the hero of our Korean football!" Former Korean national hero Yang Zhongxun raised his hand and patted Park Suntae on the shoulder.

Park Soon Tai lowered his head and pursed his lips. (End of chapter)
