The National Youth Team that has qualified for the group will face the Iranian National Youth Team, which is the first in Group A.
?b?i?q?This team is also the victim of China. But now that it has passed the group stage and eliminated the Korean team that was originally the Asian Youth Championship champion, it will not change history on the road ahead.
Impossible.
After putting down the National Youth Team, Zhang Sheng began to prepare for the Football Association Cup finals.
Zhang Sheng was still very worried about the FA Cup final. Qin Minghao and Li Yun performed well in the National Youth Team. Zhang Sheng was very pleased, but when the Longteng team was about to play in the FA Cup, Zhang Sheng began to regret letting them go.
Let’s go. Because the strength of our opponents this time, Guizhou and Maotai, is far beyond what I can compare to the few Chinese League One or Chinese teams I have played before.
The Longteng team has been through the FA Cup. In addition to the outstanding strength of the Longteng team, it should be said that good luck is also part of it. Starting from the initial Chinese League One team Chongqing Lifan, as a Chongqing team with poor results at the time, the player strength was not
Strong, focused on the league, and with the inability of foreign players to play, they were defeated by the Dragons.
Then there is Henan Jianye, which is also a Chinese team struggling to avoid relegation. The team is also in turmoil with frequent personnel changes. They do not attach much importance to the FA Cup. Historically, they were eventually relegated.
Guangzhou Evergrande was fighting on the third line. Although it had a strong bench, it still underestimated the opponent a little. The addition of a group of reserve team players greatly reduced the overall strength, allowing the Longteng team to win the game at the end.
Next, Dalian Albin and Liaoning Hongyun are both teams fighting for relegation. When the league is close to the end, it is impossible to ignore the league for the sake of the Football Association Cup. Therefore, they definitely don’t put as much thought into the Football Association Cup as the Longteng team.
, it is natural for the Longteng team to win.
But Kweichow Renhe and Moutai are different. This team is ranked fourth in this year's Chinese Super League. There is no doubt about the strength of the team, and now that the Chinese League is over, Guizhou Renhe does not need to be distracted by other games. In terms of players, people
The lineup is neat as it is now, and there are no injuries. Although foreign players cannot be used, the domestic players in the team are strong enough.
The 2o12 season is a season of stable competition in history. The people and the team, coached by Gao Hongbo, are very united. Many of Gao's playing styles are also fully reflected. Gao's three favorite generals
Bo, Yu Hai, and Yang Hao also played under him, making him very comfortable in commanding the team.
On November 10, the Longteng team faced the challenge of Guizhou Renhe in Jiangcheng.
This game is the Longteng team's last home game of the season, and it happens to be a weekend. Many fans have gathered in front of the Wuchang District Stadium since the afternoon. Many people who have not bought tickets are wondering if they can get a refund.
.
Every time a person comes over, a group of people gather around him, and everyone asks: "Do you have a ticket? Do you have a ticket?"
But the answer is usually disappointing: "I want to buy a ticket too!" Then the people surrounding him start to disperse.
One of the people in the group just now was wearing a Longteng scarf and a middle-aged fan wearing the Longteng No. 9 Qin Minghao jersey loudly complained: "What's going on? I came here yesterday to buy tickets and said I didn't have any tickets. The tickets are all here."
Where did it go?"
"Where else can we go? They've all been taken away by scalpers." A young fan wearing No. 3 Li Yun uniform next to him also complained.
Then a scalper not far from these fans came over and said, "Do you want more tickets? One hundred and one. I don't have many tickets left."
"Twenty yuan tickets are sold for 100 yuan. It's really evil. Don't give up." Fans deeply hate scalpers.
But soon a young couple came over, both wearing Longteng team uniforms, bought two tickets directly from the scalper, and then left. It seems that after asking around, they couldn't buy the tickets and had to buy them from the scalper.
.
The scalper proudly took the ticket and patted it on the palm of his hand. He glanced at the fans next to him and said, "If you don't buy it, you really won't have it."
While the fans outside the stadium were worried about not being able to buy tickets, Zhang Sheng was accompanying his distinguished guest, Ralf Rangnick, the sports director of the German team Red Bull Leipzig.
Rangnick took over the position of Joachim Kruger, the former sporting director of Red Bull. Rangnick achieved good results when leading Schalke O4, and later built Hoffenheim
Miracle of Heim.
The Red Bulls also took a fancy to Rangnick's ability to train young players and invited him to become the team's sports director in June this year.
After Rangnick came to the team, he heard about Zhang Sheng, and found out that the first-level echelon led by Zhang Sheng is the one with the most talents at Red Bull. Among them, Martin, the young player Zhang Sheng appointed, has now played in the first team.
has become the main force and is still growing.
In addition, the company also attaches great importance to the Chinese market, so this time the club's general manager Oliver Mintzlaff received a report from the staff and heard that after the Longteng team was promoted to the Chinese League One, he asked Rangnick to make a special trip to China to meet with
Zhang Sheng discusses the cooperation between Red Bull and Longteng.
In fact, Rangnick is very disdainful of the level of football in China. However, since China has such a large population and Zhang Sheng studied and grew up in Germany, it is hard to say whether he has learned anything during this trip to China.
There are certain expectations.
Before coming to China, he learned that the Longteng team would participate in the finals of the Chinese Football Association Cup. He also found it a bit incredible. Even in Germany, no Bundesliga team has reached the finals of the German Cup.
In order to show respect for the guests, Zhang Sheng also specially invited Rangnick to watch the game. Of course, more people accompanied Zhang Sheng this time. The Hubei Football Association also sent people to come and watch the game with the famous coach Rangnick.
Families of Zhang Sheng and Ye Ting, as well as some sports leaders and local leaders from Jiangcheng City and Hubei Province also attended the game.
This was also Zhang Zhijun's original intention for investing in football. What he wanted was the government's attention, and Zhang Sheng lived up to his hopes and gave him this opportunity.
Before the game, Gao Hongbo accepted an interview with reporters. During the interview, Gao Hongbo praised the Longteng team: "This is an alternative team in Chinese football. The reason why it is called alternative is that their players are generally
Players with very good skills at the feet. It is difficult to see a team in China that can gather so many players with excellent skills. To be honest, I am very envious."
When a reporter asked about the impact of missing Qin Minghao and Li Yun on the Longteng team, Gao Hongbo said: "I noticed the performance of these two players in the National Youth Team, and I have been paying attention to their previous performances in the Longteng team.
.The two of them should be said to be the best players at their positions in this age group. Although their absence has a certain impact on the Longteng team, the Longteng team has always played overall football. The head coach of the Longteng team
Coach Zhang Shengzhang is a coach with very high tactical arrangements, I think he will minimize this impact, not to mention that they have equally excellent players like Xu Mingyu in their team."
When talking about his team, Gao Hongbo was very low-key: "This is the home court of the Longteng team. The game should be difficult. We will work hard to play this game well."
In the home team's locker room before the game, Zhang Sheng was mobilizing the players before the game: "Today's opponent is our strongest opponent in history. Many of the names of their team members are probably familiar to you, such as Sun Xuhai.
, although he is a player of the same era as me, his talent and ability are few in the entire history of Chinese football. Even at this age, his condition is still very good. The players in their team
Qu Bo, Yang Hao and Yu Hai are all players with the main level of the national team. Other players also have the experience of being selected for the national team."
"The other is their head coach Gao Hongbo. He can be regarded as the best local head coach in the country. He has his own set of tactics. He likes to play short passes and coordinate with each other. At the same time, he pays attention to the speed of counterattacks. You must be careful about their tactics during the game.
Fight back.”
In the visiting team's locker room on the other side, Gao Hongbo was also doing pre-match preparations: "In this game, you must not underestimate the opponent just because it is a second-tier team. Although two core players in their team have gone to the national team.
It’s a youth team, but the strength of this team is not bad. Now they have successfully entered the first league, and they have succeeded without the absence of two core players.”
"During the game, pay more attention to the player Xu Mingyu in their midfield. This player has very good skills with his feet. Of course, this is the characteristic of all players in the Longteng team. And he is very imaginative in passing the ball. Be sure to pay attention to his
Pass the ball with one kick. So try to stay close to his body and prevent him from passing the ball comfortably."
"Judging from the past few games, the Longteng team has properly positioned their former midfielder Gao Jun. It should be said that this premise has increased the intensity of their midfield defense. Gao Jun is a player who is not good at physical confrontation, but
His footwork and passing ability are very strong. When Xu Mingyu was watched, he was responsible for the midfielder of the Longteng team. So after Xu Mingyu was watched, Yu Hai, you have to keep an eye on Gao Jun to prevent him from feeling uncomfortable.
pass."
"Now the two central defenders of the Longteng team are relatively tall central defenders. Their foot skills are also good, but there is an obvious weakness that they are relatively slow. Qu Bo, you use your speed to harass them offensively.
, if possible, just cut inside the penalty area."
This game was broadcast live by CCTV Sports Channel. It should be said that this is also the first time that the Longteng team has been broadcast live by CCTV Sports Channel. This also makes many fans who are exposed to the Longteng team for the first time strange. On CCTV
It was indeed a very shocking thing to see a team that I had never heard of competing in the FA Cup final.
If the Longteng team had a certain reputation in the past due to the broadcasts on Jiangcheng and Hubei TV stations, and the live broadcast of Fengyun Football brought the reputation of the Longteng team to a higher level, then the live broadcast of the CCTV Sports Channel has made the Longteng team famous among Chinese fans.
