Many friends who fought side by side in Germany a year ago reunited, especially Wang Ai, who only participated in the National Olympic training camp and did not come to the national team during this period. News of his high-dollar transfer happened to come out. For a while,
Envy, jealousy and hatred linger in the sky above Xianghe Base.
The members of the coaching staff just smiled and watched these guys having fun with their hands behind their backs. To be honest, having Wang Ai under their command put a lot of pressure on them. Big-name stars have always been difficult to discipline. In the past, the Chinese team had
At most they are domestic big names, but now a real international big name has arrived.
We haven’t seen each other for more than half a year. Wang Ai has stood on the podium for the highest award in football, and then won the Asian Footballer of the Year three times in a row. Recently, he has become the most valuable person in the world... The coaches looked at Wang Ai and felt guilty.
After all, if it had been someone else, he might have been flying. But slowly looking at the person who hugged Qu Bo's shoulders and wrestled with Luo Tongliang, it should be okay?
Sure enough, as soon as Ali blew the whistle, everyone fell silent, including Wang Ai, who stood neatly in the queue. It wasn't until they saw this scene that people felt relieved, including Zhu Heyuan and Nan Yong who were peeking outside the training ground.
For the leaders, the news of Wang Ai's transfer is of course good news. Chinese players can become the most valuable in the world, even if they can't be included in their resumes, it can still be regarded as meritorious leadership. After all, the national team and the Football Association have been
They all strongly support Wang Ai. But at the same time, Wang Ai's return with such a high value will also be a hidden danger to the team's unity and the relationship between the generals, so Nan Yong is worried and came to Xianghe today to take a look.
At first glance, it was okay! Nan Yong decided not to make a public appearance and stayed outside the training ground to watch the national team training while explaining work to Zhu Heyuan.
The goal set by the Football Association internally for this Asian Cup is the "Final Four", and of course externally it is the "Final". We had no experience in the World Cup before, so we basically didn't notice the fact that the Asian Cup and the World Cup are out of sync. In the past two years,
I finally noticed it, so I didn’t dare to make a big deal about it. Among them, Wang Ai and his friends continued to “spread” the “failure” to the fans through different channels, such as TV, newspapers, blogs, etc.
"Theory", and the reality that the Chinese football team has participated in the World Cup twice, which has reduced the fans' hunger for honor to a certain extent. The entire society has lowered expectations for the national football team and has a clearer understanding of the laws of the national football team.
For example, Wang Ai's statements such as "The main energy of our country and people is not on football now" and "The level of modern professional football is directly related to the level of national development" have achieved broad consensus from all walks of life. In other words, Wang Ai's
This idea has become the mainstream idea in the professional reform process of various sports, especially football.
As a result, the current public opinion environment faced by the Football Association and the national team is much more relaxed than before. It can even be said that the national football team has never had such a relaxed environment and such a friendly space. This also guarantees
The Football Association's energy does not need to be distracted by temporary events and put out fires everywhere, but can carry out some long-term planning and layout.
Before coming to Xianghe this time, Yan Shiduo's secretary called Wang Ai, hoping that Wang Ai could give some opinions on the Chinese Super League. The Football Association planned to further activate the Chinese Super League. Wang Ai verbally agreed and planned to think about it during the Asian Cup and come back.
Then report to the leader.
Life in Xianghe is very happy. The teammates have found the rhythm of getting along with each other again, and the new players have integrated smoothly. After all, the football circle is not big. As long as you mention people, they are definitely related to each other.
, either they have the same teammates, they have the same coach, or they have played for the same club, or even have similar experiences. Moreover, the structure of the national team, which is mainly based on the Tübingen system, has been stable, with players from all over the world.
The Tübingen system itself has no tradition of excluding people.
More than ten days later, the Xianghe training camp officially ended. The 23-member national team went south to Hong Kong and played a warm-up match with the Australian national team. It was also the last actual training before the start of the main game. Both sides agreed to make six substitutions each.
For quota, Ali Haan sent out the combination of Bai Guanghai + Mao Jianqing in the first half, and in the second half, he sent out the combination of Dong Fangzhuo + Gao Lin. Zheng Zhi + Zhao Xuri in the midfield remained unchanged. In the first half, he sent out Wang Ai + Shao Jiayi, and replaced them in the second half.
Chen Tao + Hao Junmin, Luo Tongliang and Li Weifeng in the backcourt did not move. In the first half, it was Sun Jihai + Zhang Yonghai, and in the second half, it was Zhang Yaokun + Zhou Haibin. Neither side worked too hard, and the final score was 2:0. Dong Fangzhuo and Zhou Haibin each scored one
Wang Ai originally had a chance to score a goal, but he gave up when he found out that his opponent was defending fiercely. It was not a formal game anyway, and there was no live broadcast.
After a night's rest in Hong Kong, the national team continued south the next day and landed directly in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. The first two group matches of this year's Asian Cup were held in Kuala Lumpur. The advantage of the hot summer is that the climate is similar wherever the Chinese team warms up.
, in terms of body feeling, Kuala Lumpur is cooler than Xianghe.
What's surprising is that when the Chinese national team got off the chartered flight, they encountered a large pick-up team. Of course many of them were Chinese, but most of them were local Malays, which was quite novel!
Wang Ai was dragging his suitcase behind Li Weifeng and was still talking to Zhang Yonghai while walking. Brother Erbao was more unlucky. Wang Ai finally had to go to Italy, and his Ascoli team was relegated! However,
After all, he is one of the pioneers to go to Serie A, so he has a lot of experience with Wang Ai.
While they were chatting, they heard a loud commotion outside, and realized that a large group of people were outside in darkness, which startled Wang Ai. When he got closer, he realized that people were holding large posters of him and Lao Bai, and Lao Bai could occupy ten
One part, and the rest is his.
The teammates were blocked and couldn't get out. Team leader Zhu Heyuan ran back and forth urgently. When everyone saw the poster clearly, they all turned to look at Wang Ai: You caused this! Hurry up and get over it!
Wang Ai didn't do anything. He had nothing to do with the Malaysian fan organization. He didn't organize the pick-up at the airport. He even didn't know about it at all. What could he do? Later, Zhu Heyuan and the local pick-up team were
Officials from the official organization, namely the Malaysian Football Association, and the AFC briefly discussed and decided to let Wang Ai issue a replacement statement of thanks afterwards, and it would be better for him to sneak away quietly for now.
When they arrived at the hotel, the teammates recovered from the shock. Zhao Xuri jumped on Wang Ai's back: "Fuck, it's up to you, you've made us disappear!"
