The four hundred and fifty-sixth section of the path of glory (2)
"I found that I might have conflicted with the Asian Games." In the locker room after the game, Wang Ai played with the gold medal in his hand and joked with Lao Liu: "Last time, I didn't go up for a minute under Coach Shen and lay down.
I won a gold medal. This time, you, Coach Liu, and Coach Gao gave me some face and allowed me to play for more than 70 minutes and scored two goals. However, my time on the field was more than that of a substitute, so I was half-lying.
gold medal."
Old Liu, who no longer looked bitter and resentful, laughed and patted Wang Ai on the shoulder: "Your value is not all in the game."
Just as he was talking, Lao Gao came back and waved, and everyone quickly got up and went back to the Asian Games Village. The closing ceremony will be in two hours. After two or three hours, if we don't hurry up and go back to eat, we will starve to death.
Back at the Asian Games Village, Wang Ai went to the room, took out the flagpole, put on the national flag and walked to the women's basketball team to find Chen Nan. She was the flag bearer for the closing ceremony. Generally speaking, the flag bearers for the opening and closing ceremonies were not the same person.
This year, Wang Ai was removed from the opening ceremony, and there was nothing we could do about the closing ceremony. Moreover, Wang Ai's performance in this Asian Games was far behind people's expectations.
You are a guy who can score 11 goals in the World Cup, but you only scored two in an amateur event like the Asian Games. Are you embarrassed?
After handing the national flag to Chen Nan, Wang Ai did not forget to tell her: "Sister Chen, don't keep throwing things away. This thing is valuable. Remember to return it to me."
Chen Nan chuckled and patted Wang Ai on the top of the head, saying that sister knows, please stop using chicken feathers as arrows.
When Chen Nan was selected for the national team in 2000, Wang Ai was in junior high school. He led Chen Tao and the others around all day long, and the aquatic center was flattened. How many women's basketball teams are there? "Crazy boy" has friends all over the world, really
It's not a boast.
As for being slapped on the head, it's a bit shameful, but there's nothing I can do about it. Comrade Wang Ai, the big man in the men's football team, is now nearly 10 centimeters shorter than Chen Nan! It was even worse in the early years, and I can't bear to look back.
If Yuan Weimin, the chairman of the Football Association at the time, was also the director of the General Administration of Sports, Wang Ai would have been fired based on the complaints from various centers.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the lights were bright. Qatar spent 2.8 billion US dollars for this Asian Games, so the closing ceremony was quite exciting. It was not until 10:30 in the evening, when the Guangzhou representative took over the Asian Games flag, that the blazing torch was extinguished.
While waiting to leave, Chen Tao looked directly at Wang Ai: "Boss, why did you come here with a broken stick?"
Wang Ai let out a laugh and took the flagpole from his shoulder in his hand: "Is this a stick? This is a pointer! If you don't obey, I will use this thing to beat you."
Zhao Xuri, who was in the back row, put his head between the two of them: "We already have gold medals, why not?"
Wang Ai grabbed the gold medal Zhao Xuri was wearing around his neck and tugged on it: "This thing is not valuable. It will be really valuable in two years."
Zhao Xuri opened his mouth and retracted his head quietly. The Olympic Games, like the World Cup, are a pain in the heart of the Chinese men's football team! Although the results have been better in the past two years, they are still far away from the gold medal. The last "Super Platinum Generation"
"Qu Bo and the others are rare good players in the Chinese youth team in recent years. They also have Wang Ai to assist them. Even though they broke the Olympic men's football individual goal record, they only finished third in the Olympics!"
The Olympic gold medal is also the first in the world! Thinking of this, people who were just so proud all felt guilty.
Finally it was the Chinese delegation's turn to go back. Lao Gao, Lao Liu, one after another, Lao Feng, and Chen Tao supervised. Everyone walked in order with their heads lowered and sullen faces. When they lined up outside the stadium to get on the bus, Zhang Jilong stood in front of the bus and talked to them one by one.
The team members shook hands and realized that everyone's mood was wrong, but they didn't have time to ask. After everyone got in the car and the car started to drive, they asked: "What happened? I don't think everyone is in a high mood?"
Chen Tao hesitated to speak. Just when Lao Gao and Lao Liu were about to explain, Dong Fangzhuo, who was in the front seat, suddenly said: "We are holding back the boss. If we all have the strength of the boss, the Beijing Olympic gold medal will not be lost."
Everyone who spoke was extremely embarrassed, including Wang Ai. The thing is, you can't say it openly.
Zhang Jilong patted Dong Fangzhuo on the head, thinking that this bastard didn't know how to speak human language, and hurriedly said to everyone: "I'm very happy that everyone can think of fighting for the gold medal in the Beijing Olympics. It doesn't matter if there is a gap, the important thing is that we see the gap.
, we still have the desire to win the gold medal. There are still nearly two years left. I believe that as long as everyone continues to work hard, there are still opportunities and there is hope, and it is still big!"
Although the face has improved, the heaviness in everyone's heart has not been reduced. Dong Fangzhuo's words are unpleasant, but everyone knows that they are the truth. If everyone in this country has the level of Wang Ai, that is,
They all have the ability to take second place in the Golden Globe Award, but the result is really hard to say. In fact, if it weren't for the World Cup this year, Wang Ai should have taken first place.
Even if everyone cannot reach this level, it is enough to at least have the level of substitutes in the five major leagues. Then the boss can make up a similar team. But now, except for the seven or eight people who are the main force in Tübingen, they can
, they are all still stuck in China. Their level is barely even for the "Second National Team".
Isn’t it just holding back the boss?
But who wants to hold people back? For example, Zhou Haibin has been a main force since he was a child. He has gone all the way to this day and has won the Asian Junior Championship, the World Junior Championship, the Asian Youth Championship, the World Youth Championship, and the Asian Games. He can win at this age
He won the championship, but he fell! No matter among his superiors, fans or even family and friends, he was widely praised as the hope of Chinese football. For such a proud and arrogant star to accept the role of "holding people back",
How not to be embarrassed!
No one said this in the past, so they subconsciously ignored it, but today a big fool said it, and no one can escape it. What is obvious in front of them is that there are too many "glorious roads" in their past.
The Wang Ai factor is at work. What about themselves? If the boss Wang Ai was a European, he would have announced his goal by now, right? How can a world-class star with such dignity win the Silver Ball at the age of 19?
star, even dare not mention the first place in the Olympics, isn't this a shameful thing for boss Wang Ai?
Why don't you dare to mention it?
When thinking of this, no one could raise their heads.
Back at the Asian Games Village, the women's football girls opposite the men's football team were surprised to find that the men's football team that won the gold medal didn't even hold a celebration party tonight. Everyone went back to the room with a sad face and never came out again.
When I returned home the next day, the Football Association officials who greeted me at the airport were also surprised that all the men’s football players were forcing themselves to smile.
