After the semi-finals of the German Cup, the entire Tubingen youth team entered a rest period. Even though there would be another league opponent in three days, Xu Genbao still gave the players two days off. It was really hard for everyone.
Too tired. The physical energy consumption of a high-intensity game is twice as much as that of usual training, especially for the players who put all their energy into it. Because various unexpected situations often occur during the game, and it is impossible to be as good as during training.
Distribute physical fitness step by step.
Of course, another reason for the holiday was that Beckenbauer, then chairman of the German Football Association, was coming.
On the afternoon of March 7, the entire Tubingen team gathered on the training ground. Because March 9 was the league match day, and the team would resume normal training on March 8, Beckenbauer specially chose this training ground.
One day I came to Tübingen. Although it was a holiday, the Tübingen team, where most of the players were students from the University of Tübingen, had nowhere to go. As an amateur team, the players’ income was not enough to support them.
They go on extravagant trips around the world, not to mention around the world, even across Germany.
Ozil returned to Gelsenkirchen on March 6 and returned to Tübingen this morning to continue school. Mertesacker's home was too far away, so he simply didn't go back and stayed at the club with Wang Ai.
Bai Guanghai, Luo Tongliang and three others trained as usual, but the training intensity was slightly reduced.
A Mercedes-Benz car slowly stopped outside the training ground. Under the attention of everyone, Beckenbauer, wearing glasses and with gray hair, got out of the car with a smile.
Beckenbauer is an idol in the hearts of football people in this country, Europe and the world. Although the current chairman of the German Football Association is actually Gerhard, because of Beckenbauer's huge reputation, he is always brought out by the media for demands.
Dialogue. Whether he serves as a technical advisor or as vice-president of the Football Association, all walks of life in Germany have not only given him great prestige and honor, but also required him to take on huge responsibilities. His influence is ubiquitous in this country, no matter where he is or where he lives.
What position.
The "Expanding Talent Promotion Plan" is a German team reconstruction plan that has been carried out since 2000. It not only requires 390 youth football training centers across the country, but also requires that all professional teams have their own youth training centers.
There is a plan to continuously search for and train young football geniuses. After this plan is implemented, the next step is to open up foreign football aid, provide fierce competition for local talents on the field, and encourage local players to perform better. These two plans are
Complementing each other, without local youth training, a large number of foreign aid can only bring prosperity to the league, but cannot help the national team. Over time, the national team will be weak and the development of the league will be restricted. And without an open foreign aid system, local players lack high-level players.
Competition, leagues and national teams will suffer.
When the Tübingen youth appeared in the eyes of German fans as an "international team" and continuously defeated the local Bundesliga team, the sensitive German top management had realized that the time for opening up the foreign aid policy was slowly coming. Therefore.
Despite the huge controversy, the German Football Association arranged for the prestigious Beckenbauer to visit the Tübingen Youth Club.
You must know that no matter what good results Tübingen Youth has created, it is only an amateur club, far from being able to use a figure like Beckenbauer. The German Football Association used this action to send a signal to the outside world: the Football Association is open to foreign aid.
Our attitude is resolute, no matter what you say.
"Welcome, Your Majesty!" Leonie stood at the front of the queue with a smile.
"Hello, Leonie." Beckenbauer smiled and shook hands with Leonie: "German football has never had a manager as young as you, and a female manager."
Obviously, Beckenbauer has done some homework.
"Before you, no one knew what a 'free person' was, right?" Leonie showed a charming smile.
"I'm not discriminating against women, but there are too few female managers, right?" Beckenbauer was keenly aware of Leonie's dissatisfaction and answered with a smile.
"This is our captain, the head coach of Tübingen Echelon, Favre." Leonie ended her greetings with His Majesty and began to introduce other members of the club as the host.
"Hello, Favre, I'm impressed by you." Beckenbauer shook hands with Favre.
"Thank you, I am more impressed by you." Feiffer said humorously.
"This is the head coach of the Tübingen youth team, Kimbos Xu." Leonie introduced solemnly.
Beckenbauer smiled and stretched out his hand, and the two old men held their hands together.
"Mr. Jimbos, your game was so exciting." Beckenbauer said: "When I watched the game, I couldn't believe that your team is still in the regional league."
Xu Genbao had a lot to talk to Beckenbauer, but now was obviously not the time for in-depth communication, so he smiled and said: "That's because I have a group of excellent players. This is Mesut from Gelsenkirchen
·Ozil.”
Xu Genbao began to introduce his players to His Majesty the Emperor. The first person to shake hands with the Emperor was Ozil, a local player of immigrant descent. This choice has a certain meaning. In the subsequent recordings of the TV cameras, who was the player?
The first player to shake hands with Beckenbauer will attract attention. Ozil has German nationality and can be considered a player trained in the German youth training. He is also a descendant of immigrants and has some foreign characteristics.
The second is Mertesacker, a pure German, who represents the excellent German football tradition. The third is Boateng, an Australian-German player who represents the Tübingen University background of the Tübingen youth team.
, also represents foreign players who are racially close. In this order, they are more likely to be accepted by conservative media.
The fourth one is the real core of the team: Wang Ai.
Wang Ai's status and role in this team cannot be concealed from anyone. His dual roles as an investor and a player determine that Wang Ai is the core of the dispute over foreign aid issues caused by this team. If it were not for the fact that Wang Ai is still underage
If he has crossed over into a very professional philosophy scholar, then Wang Ai has long been the target of frequent criticism by the German media. Even the serious German media is more tolerant of minors, even German football players
, and is also full of awe for philosophy that comes from theology.
"Welcome to Tubingen, Your Majesty!" Wang Ai put his right hand on his chest and performed a knight's salute.
Beckenbauer smiled and shook his head: "You performed very well. Although you are hiding your offensive power, I still know that you are the core of the team's tactics and the primary executor of Mr. Kimbos's tactical plan.
