Section 357 Wang Ai said: There must be light (Part 1)
After finishing the conversation with Zhang Jilong, Wang Ai happily left the room and decided not to scold the AFC from now on. People are so interested in you, so that’s it. Besides, Lao Zhang’s work there is really hard.
, having such a support group of the Chinese men’s football team is a disaster for eight lifetimes! But even so, Zhang Jilong can also rely on his own work ability to act as the chairman of the AFC for two years!
Wang Ai and Zhang Jilong have known each other for a long time. Two years ago, Wang Ai participated in the 1984 National Youth Championship. Zhang Jilong rushed to the scene to present the award. Since then, although the two have not had much contact, they have a good relationship. Zhang Jilong pays close attention to Wang Ai.
With the growth of Ai, a young player, in the previous quarrels between Wang Ai and the domestic football community, the quarrels with the Football Association and even the quarrels with the head coach, Zhang Jilong remained neutral despite not speaking.
This is enough. After all, his foundation in the Football Association is not deep and he is equivalent to a diplomat in the sports world.
Accompanied by Sun Yi and Yan Zhu, Wang Ai walked all the way to the training ground and found that his teammates were competing in groups. He had an injury on his leg and was too tired, so he simply sat down by the side of the field.
"What? Vice Chairman Zhang has finished talking to you?" Mai Chao said with a smile.
"Yeah! It's a fine, this amount!" Wang Ai deliberately spread his fingers and made a grimace.
"Haha, do you think I don't know the details?" Mai Chao didn't want to be fooled.
"Okay, what do you think about tomorrow's game? Should we still strive for this championship? After all, we are full of wounded soldiers, right?"
"What about you? What do you think?"
Wang Ai rubbed his nose: "There is one thing about our men's football team that I still admire. No matter how bad we lose to others, we never give up when we fight against Japan, and we never lose the face of our veterans of the Anti-Japanese War. Oh, of course I do too.
.”
"Then you mean to give it a try?"
"Hehe, it's not interesting enough for you, Coach Mai. I remember this is your first time leading a national brand, right? It's not easy to catch up with the 'Big King and Little King' again, and you are a 'penalty kick expert', so
Known for his strong psychological quality, at a time when the National Youth League is in turmoil, oops!" Wang Ai shook his head: "Then once you win the championship in the end, no matter from the actual situation or the face of the Football Association, the biggest advantage is not
your?"
"Hahaha!" Mai Chao gave a rare heroic smile: "Of course I hope to win the championship, but it's okay if I can't win it. After all, the second place in the Asian Youth Championship is the second best result in history, tying the second place eight years ago.
Yeah, it’s pretty good too.”
"Okay!" Wang Ai looked at it for a while and stood up: "I feel very uncomfortable. I guess I will only be able to breathe tomorrow. It depends on them. I won't practice today. I will go to the team doctor for a massage. How much recovery can I do?
It's best to recover as much as possible, I can win tomorrow without me, and I'm still looking forward to returning to Germany to play in the UEFA Cup."
Mai Chao nodded: "If we can score first, you can come in later. If we are behind, you can come in earlier. Of course, it depends on your physical condition tomorrow. Just try your best. Now the Football Association is satisfied and there are no hard requirements.
, it all depends on our desire to win. These teammates of yours really want to win a championship. To be honest, I think so too, and in fact the Football Association also wants it. This year the Asian Youth Championship is the champion, the National Olympic team is the champion, and our National Youth Team is the champion.
Caught in the middle, it’s best to be a champion.”
Wang Ai went back to the team doctor for a massage to relieve physical fatigue. All training was stopped for the whole day, except for half an hour in the gym in the evening.
At 3:30 in the afternoon on October 31, the third and fourth place finals of the Asian Youth Championship were held between Uzbekistan and the South Korean team. There was a huge gap in strength between the two sides, but the South Korean team obviously suffered serious losses in the semi-finals with the Chinese team the day before yesterday.
The main players were not present. Uzbekistan’s semi-final opponent was the Japanese team, which played a relatively civilized style, so their physical fitness and health were relatively good. Therefore, the game was tepid throughout the 90 minutes.
In overtime, the Uzbekistan team won with a golden goal and won the third place.
At 18:00 sharp in the evening, the Chinese and Japanese teams entered the venue.
This game attracted the attention of many Asian media, and the stadium was almost full of fans. To put it figuratively speaking, Wang Ai's bombardment exploded a group of divers, and football matches are inherently topical.
Before the game, the Chinese team announced the starting lineup. The "onlookers" keenly noticed that Wang Ai, who defeated South Korea with one pass and one shot in the previous game, did not start. This also confirmed the judgment of the outside world. The star of hope of the Chinese team,
The consumption in one game was extremely serious. However, the Japanese team did not dare to take it lightly. As long as the big devil is still sitting on the sidelines and has one minute left to play, there is the possibility of changing the outcome of the game.
After the starting players entered the stadium, Wang Aicai, supported by Sun Yi, slowly walked into the stadium. He was immediately greeted by cheers and applause from fans in the nearby stands, and attracted the attention of cameras and other fans.
Although he was limping, even though he was just a substitute who seemed unlikely to play, Wang Ai was like the owner of the Doha Stadium, smiling and waving calmly.
In the balcony of the stands, the six members of the Chinese star football team also stretched their necks and applauded.
"Is the injury like this?" Li Jindou frowned and pointed at Wang Ai, who was attracting everyone's attention.
"It is said that blood flowed all over the shoe's nest." Zhao Benshan said.
"Well, look." Guo Da still had the same half-dead tone: "Half and half. Half of it is really hurt, and half of it is really a lie."
"Tsk tsk!" Feng Gong said: "I think so. Didn't he just deceive the Brazilians like this once in the World Cup?"
"Hey, Lao Zhao, this is not your apprentice, right? Why is this all a big liar?" Cai Ming interjected.
"Haha, how can I accept such a disciple? He is a doctor, and I am just troublesome."
In the last battle between China and South Korea, the Chinese team fought to the end. The game was anxious for a while and could not be called a good watch. However, the star six were not professionals in the first place. Instead, they looked at their mental state and competitive spirit. The result was very enjoyable. Domestic
The media also reported the news that they came to cheer and praised them, so they were still very interested in this game.
At 18:30, the game between the two sides started.
From the beginning, the Chinese team fell into a defensive position. The players' control range was significantly smaller than in the previous game, and their physical weakness was obvious. In addition, Yang Hao, Guo Liang, Wang Ai, Han Peng and other absolute main players were on the bench.
However, the Japanese team did not rush to attack, and steadily controlled the rhythm of the game. It seemed that they were waiting for the Chinese team's physical fitness to completely collapse, and finally gained a victory easily.
Before the last war between China and South Korea, the Japanese reporters' back-and-forth efforts to sow discord worked. Not only did the South Korean team fail to play the game that Wang Ai had set up, but it also cost several of its absolute main players a loss. Of course, the Chinese boys
It's not honest either. The Korean team also lost almost the same number of main players, otherwise it wouldn't have lost to Uzbekistan.
In the fifth minute of the game, the Japanese team launched a fast break, which was severely intercepted by substitute midfielder Zhao Xuri. This was the first time that Zhao Xuri started in the past three games. As a player born in 1985, he could play in the 1983 country.
The fact that Qing has gained a foothold in the 81 National Olympics speaks for itself.
