At the press conference of the warm-up match between the National Football Team and PSV Eindhoven, Milu and PSV Eindhoven's head coach Eric Graetz exchanged blows. Especially the PSV team obviously did not show real performance.
The strength comes. But unlike the previous warm-up match opponents of the National Football Team, PSV is not a national team, but a club team. The warm-up match has no competitive value and is purely money-making. Therefore, how many times do you praise the "boss"?
The sentence is also natural.
Originally, the Football Association chose PSV for this reason. It is a world-famous club after all. In the last warm-up match before the World Cup, they expected the national football team to win to be motivated. Unfortunately, the national football team was soft-footed as usual and failed to score a goal, which caused the Football Association to
The idea came to nothing. Fortunately, Eindhoven was sensible and knew that the situation would be compromised, so they said something nice afterwards.
After the press conference for the Eindhoven game was hastily concluded, the Football Association took advantage of the situation to announce the squad for the World Cup. Among the old faces, Wang Ai's selection was particularly eye-catching. Originally, Dewey, who was born in 1982, was considered the youngest in the team.
But Dewey was also the captain of last year's National Youth Team and the captain of this year's National Olympics. But how old is Wang Ai? He was born in 1987 and was still a national junior last year. In between, he jumped two levels in the National Youth and National Olympics! Besides, Dewey and
The national football team has been training and playing together for more than half a year, and Wang Ai has never done it once. Even though he came on as a substitute in the last two warm-up games, there was no surprise at all.
Why was he selected?
Nan Yong, who attended the press conference, had a serious face and downplayed the influx of questions: "Wang Ai's selection into the national team is not only the collective decision of our Football Association, but also the decision of the national team coaching staff."
The reporters were stunned. If it were a Chinese coach, they would suspect that this was pressure from the Football Association. After all, the relationship between Wang Ai and Liaoning Football Team is no secret to these sports reporters with a keen sense of smell. It is just that the Wang family keeps a low profile and does not come forward.
Admitting this, they would not expose other people's family privacy for no reason. After all, the other party is too powerful, so why would they want to become enemies?
So if it was a Chinese coach, these reporters would immediately wonder if the Wang family "bought" or "robbed" the national football identity. However, the national football coach is Milu, who has always not dealt with the Football Association and Nan Yong himself. He
Compared with domestic coaches, he is much more powerful. Apart from the contract, the Football Association has no good way to deal with him, especially this crucial player list issue. This is related to how the National Football Association will perform in the World Cup, and is also related to Milutin's lifetime honor.
Milu would not joke about this. Besides, even if the Wang family pays a bribe, how much can they give Milu? With the national football team qualifying, Milu has made a lot of money over the past year. But if you make money, you really have to accept the players
The news of bribery to select team members must not be hidden, at least from Zhang Yuning, the three people who failed to be selected, and these three people will never keep it a secret.
So……
"I need to emphasize one point." Nan Yong added slowly: "After last year's World Junior Championship, Coach Milu has been paying attention to the growth of this player. In this year's German Cup final, he scored another goal. I think this
Everyone knows what it means. So we believe that the selection of this player is still appropriate. We cannot definitely not be a member of the national team just because he is young. The German Football Association did not refuse, and we, the Chinese Football Association, will not refuse."
After saying that, the host of the press conference chose another reporter, and Nan Yong also stopped talking about Wang Ai. The reporters saw Nan Yong's attitude and knew that there would be no results if they continued to struggle with this strongman.
Now, the amount of information in the news of Wang Ai's selection is huge enough: the smallest international player in history, an international player who has never participated in a training camp, an international player who has jumped two levels in a row... In addition, Nan Yong's words revealed both inside and outside.
Coach Milu personally selected and requested Wang Ai to be selected, which is enough to satisfy the demand for the front page next year.
In 2002, the Internet had just emerged. Although high-end people were no longer unfamiliar with the Internet. After all, Wang Ai's Internet cafe had been open for several years, but for the general public, the Internet was still far away. The Internet these days was still far away.
It is relatively rough. The insufficient number of people surfing the Internet has restricted the prosperity of online public opinion. Even online forums have just started. Therefore, for the Chinese people at the beginning of the new century, the biggest public opinion storm started in newspapers.
So, the next day, sports newspapers such as "Sports Weekly", "China Sports News", "Fans News" and a large number of local-level evening newspapers and morning newspapers reported the news of the World Cup roster, and Wang was highlighted in them.
The issue of Ai's qualifications. Many newspaper editors raised questions from the most intuitive perspectives such as age, body, player performance, etc.: How did Wang Ai replace Zhang Yuning?
This question is very murderous! It's quite a bit of a show-off, especially the report on the Monday edition of "Sports Weekly" vaguely pointed out Wang Ai's identity as the boss of Liaoning Football Team... Ordinary fans may
It’s hard to see through, but it’s different in the eyes of those who are interested. This is a hint that Wang Ai used his status as boss to force Zhang Yuning to give up his position!
At breakfast the next day, Wang Ai frowned and read the newspaper while eating. You can question the selection and employment of the national team. It is like the Oscars. After every opening, there will definitely be some media complaining, but you can't.
The actress who maliciously attacks others slept with thousands of judges before she was promoted to the position.
Wang Ai looked at the author coldly, and then suddenly realized that it was him. It was written by the reporter who was expelled by Wang Ai at the World Junior Championships last year for not abiding by the national junior disciplines. No wonder.
At the same time, Nan Yong had the same expression as Wang Ai. He was also reading this report. Of course, he also keenly discovered the unfinished meaning in the article. This is really bad. What do you think our Football Association is? Favor.
The relationship is unavoidable, but who dares to show favoritism in matters like the World Cup squad? The national football team has done this once in decades, and will be brought up again and again in the future. Besides, Zhang Yuning is a forward, and Wang Ai's position is a midfielder.
Zhang Yuning is the main player and Wang Ai is the substitute. A substitute replaces a main player. They are not in the same position. You can imagine it. If you think China is a small country with a population of tens of thousands, do whatever you want to do?
Just before Wang Ai could think of any way to retaliate against this reporter, he suddenly received a call from Gao Hongbo, saying that he was at the door of the hotel.
Wang Ai walked out of the hotel excitedly and met the smiling Gao Hongbo.
Wang Ai stood at attention and saluted, his chest puffed out: "Commit your seat!"
As the vice chairman of the Shanghai Football Association, Gao Hongbo has become more generous and fatter in the past year. He looked a lot richer and pointed at Wang Ai with a smile: "Have you come out to ask for leave?"
"No!" Wang Ai said unexpectedly: "Do I still need to ask for leave? I'm not in kindergarten!"
Gao Hongbo laughed and shook his head: "Do you think any of them can run away casually? It's the World Cup, what if something happens to me when I go out? Forget it, I know for sure that you don't lead honest people in the national team, so with you
Tell me something."
After walking a few more steps, Lao Gao turned his face and said, "Can you go to North Korea in two days for emergency relief?"
