spn This winter is a historically cold winter for the UK. At the same time, it is also a cold winter for every Premier League club.
After the start of winter transfers, half the time has passed, but few transfers of personnel from the 20 Premier League teams have actually taken place. Without big deals, this is a winter version of the transfer period in the Premier League.
But in this cold winter transfer period, Chelsea dropped a heavyweight bomb.
Fans have high expectations for this game. A chartered flight from China Hong Kong fans also arrived on the same plane. This is unheard of in the history of China Hong Kong football. The fans spontaneously organized a chartered flight to go there.
Cheer for the team away from home.
It is possible for such a thing to happen in a world football powerhouse. It is the first time in Chinese and Hong Kong history. Fans wearing national flags and regional flags walked down the spiral staircase excitedly one by one. Many people had their faces painted.
From the oil paint, it can be seen that they have made sufficient preparations in advance to watch the game.
Korean fans are also famous in Asia. The most impressive thing is that during the World Cup in Korea and Japan, the crazy Korean fans are definitely no weaker than the fans of those football powers. They are even more fanatical.
, the red-based stands, the roaring and rhythmic cheers, it can be said that the most significant credit for South Korea's historic achievements should be given to South Korea's fanatical fans.
.
Now that it’s a game that involves qualifying rights, Korean fans are even more organized. The day before the game, there is already a sea of red around the venue. Fans from China and Hong Kong are in this sea.
, seems so insignificant!
In order to wait for Li Yu to return to the team, the China Hong Kong team actually arrived in South Korea on the first day of the game. They slept that night, adapted to the venue in the morning, and the official game started in the afternoon.
However, except for Li Yu, other players are quite well prepared, especially several foreign players from the Chinese Super League. They came to the team early to prepare for the game. At this time, it is officially the winter break of the Chinese Super League, and several big-name foreign players from the Chinese Super League just happened to do some training.
Keep the level up.
This time, Eriksen did not recall other players who played in the British Championship. Instead, he chose cheaper players from South American countries. They have no national team experience, but there is no problem with their level, especially the latest introductions.
The level of several Brazilian foreign players is obviously stronger than the previous players in the British Championship.
The most important thing is that the cost is much less. Once these players saw that China Hong Kong had the hope of entering the World Cup, they did not offer too high a price and quickly made the trip.
The Huo family's strategy of changing the foreign legion this time has won the support of the people of Hong Kong Island. The Brazilian players are technically and physically better than the previous British Championship players.
On the contrary, head coach Eriksson felt that such a move did not take advantage of the next game. After all, the time was too short. The players' level was good, but the running-in time together was almost zero, and the first time they played a game was in a group.
The most powerful opponent in the game, Eriksen seems not as optimistic as the fans.
Everyone knows that they are preparing for the next World Cup, but the head coach and the fans have two completely different reactions. Regardless of these, everyone's attitude is surprisingly consistent when Li Yu arrives.
The big name, the absolute big name in the team, even the Korean fans were chasing Li Yu crazily. As soon as Li Yu and his teammates appeared, the crazy Korean female fans started howling and yelling. Not even a lady could be seen.
, they are all crazy female fans, why not say they are fans, because they are Korean fans. At this time, they are simply here for Li Yu, not to welcome the China Hong Kong Football Team.
The media also focused on the two absolute big names, Li Yu and Ericsson, with flashlights and cameras focused on the young and old.
Soon two encirclement circles were naturally formed. One circle surrounded the old man and started bombarding him, and the other circle was of course Li Yu.
"Sir, what do you think about the fact that most of the players in your team are foreign legions?"
"L, can you be more specific about Chelsea's acquisition?"
After finally arriving at the hotel, Li Yu had only one thing on his mind, to get a good sleep quickly. The continuous journey and the siege of reporters had made Manchester United No. 9 exhausted, and he told the team leader that he would not go to dinner.
, Li Yu took her room card and went upstairs to sleep.
In order to allow Li Yu to have a better rest, China Hong Kong has changed the configuration of double rooms from the previous one, with one room per person.
In this way, it will not only make Li Yu appear special in the team, but also allow the players to get a better rest. They only stay for one night, and this amount of money is still affordable.[
Of the two key figures, one was sleeping, and the other was not so lucky. The pre-match press conference was about to begin, and many of the media reporters at the airport came to the hotel for the press conference.
Korean media reporters always make a fuss about the foreign legion when asking questions. They say inside and outside that it is not appropriate for China Hong Kong to compete in the Asian competition with such a lineup. If there is a United Nations competition, the current China Hong Kong will be very good.
Suitable.
Regarding the unfriendly attitude of the Korean media, Eriksen still smiled warmly, posed the question to the Hong Kong Football Association, and jokingly told the truth: "Almost none of the players in the China Hong Kong team were selected by themselves.
, you ask me, who should I ask?”
To be absolutely honest, after Eriksson came, if he could choose, he could only choose among the former national teams of China and Hong Kong. He really didn’t have the final say among the remaining players. The only one was Li Yu.
He asked for them by name, and none of the remaining players were chosen by him.
The Chinese media's questions were answered a lot easier, asking Eriksen to predict the final result of the game.
The old man didn't want to offend anyone, "The game is unpredictable. All I can do is be prepared. As for the result, I can only watch it after the game is over!"
I have said it without saying it. If you want a veteran to give you some breaking news, don’t even think about it. Don’t even think about whether Eriksen is a coach who has been trained by the British media. He still has no problem dealing with these reporters.
The Hua Xia Hong Kong team's adaption training on the field the next day was completely focused on recovery. Li Yu only conducted jogging training, and Manchester United No. 9 did not conduct ball training.
In just one hour, the China Hong Kong team completed pre-match training and returned to the hotel.
Li Yu also took a nap before going out for the game in the afternoon. This habit is very popular in today's football circles. Teams that have the conditions will arrange for players to take a nap in the afternoon before the game. It is said that this is an unwritten rule.
The rules were first adopted and carried forward by Mourinho.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the team took a bus to the stadium. What impressed Li Yu the most along the way was that as soon as the bus drove out, almost everyone was wearing red clothes. It was really crazy.
It's very similar to when I was in the UK, but in the UK hotels are generally not too far from the players. This phenomenon is acceptable, but for the game in South Korea, it takes nearly 15 minutes to drive, and all you see is a sea of red.
.
The streams have only one destination, the gathering place of the red ocean, and the Seoul World Cup Stadium, the venue for that day's competition.
During the warm-up training before the game, Li Yu felt the enthusiasm of Korean fans in the stadium. There were no banners or posters supporting him here.
The stadium was full of fans supporting the Korean team, and the handful of Chinese fans who came on a chartered flight seemed so insignificant.
Along with the rhythmic drumbeats, the fans at the scene have already started their performance.
However, the Chinese Hong Kong fans don’t know who came up with the idea to make the erhu sound in their stands. When Li Yu was warming up, he could always hear the faint sound of cheering in unison.
The sound of erhu came.
Are you not completely shocked and complete?
Let's just play an erhu performance. It can't match the power of the performance. Can't it make you sick?
Especially during the interval between the cheering sounds, the erhu sound seemed so abrupt. Li Yu really admired these Chinese Hong Kong fans. You are so talented that you made the atmosphere that the Korean fans were trying to create suddenly overturned.
nondescript.
After the warm-up, all players from both teams returned to their respective locker rooms to make final preparations before the game.
On the way back to the players' tunnel, Li Yu saw an acquaintance, Manchester United teammate Park Ji-sung. When the two were in the Manchester United team, they rarely communicated, especially after the cocktail party. Park Ji-sung and Li Yu usually nodded after meeting.
, just give a signal. Unexpectedly, Park Ji-sung took the initiative to come over today, "l, it won't be you who takes away the victory today!"
