51. Inquiries from abroad

After taking the lead, the National Youth Team played better in the next game. The National Youth Team took advantage of the long-term cooperation of Qin Minghao, Xu Mingyu, Lin Feng, Gao Jun, and Liu Xing in the midfield to start a long period of possession of the ball.?

?b?i q?u?g e?.

cnThe Colombian team, which was one goal behind, was playing more impatiently. Even their core midfielder Juan Quinteros began to use his personal abilities more to break through the National Youth Team's defense, but the Longteng team

Several players have cooperated in zone defense for more than 2 years. Juan Quinteros often passes someone and the ball is cut off. The Colombian team, which relies too much on him, is completely lost in the offense.

power.

In the second half, the Longteng team took advantage of Juan Quinteros' sticky ball to steal the ball again and then launched a successful counterattack. Xu Mingyu scored another goal with a long shot in front of the penalty area, locking the score at 2:0.

Colombia completely lost their confidence, and the final score ended with a score of 2:o.

Seeing the National Youth Team defeat their opponent 2:0, Zhang Sheng happily waved his fist in front of the TV.

After the game, the outside media also called this game the biggest upset in the first round. Xu Mingyu, who made one pass and one shot, also received a lot of attention. Like Zhang Sheng, he paid attention to the National Youth Team and Porto.

The performance of chief scout Aurelio Pereira Xu Mingyu also made him more determined to introduce this player.

With both the Longteng team and the National Youth Team winning the game, Zhang Gao happily led the Longteng team players back to Jiangcheng.

On the second day after returning to Jiangcheng, Longteng Club received an inquiry from Sporting Lisbon. This was also the first time that Longteng Club received an inquiry for its players from a foreign team, and it is also a well-known club in Europe.

Faced with this inquiry, Zhang Sheng was a little hesitant. Whether to let Xu Mingyu go or not, Zhang Sheng was also very confused.

Now Xu Mingyu is only 18 years old, and he is in the stage of rising goals. If he stays with the Longteng team, Xu Mingyu can represent the Longteng team in the game in the second half of the season. Then Zhang Sheng will definitely arrange a lot of games for Xu Mingyu to come

Kick, this is very helpful to Xu Mingyu's progress.

And if Xu Mingyu comes to Sporting Lisbon, with his current ability, he will definitely not be able to play in the first team, and then his chances of playing will be very few. This is very detrimental to Xu Mingyu's development.

But he also has his advantages in going to Sporting Lisbon. First of all, the training level of Sporting Lisbon is much higher than that in China. Even though Zhang Sheng has introduced very capable coaches in both the first team and the football school, the high-level training

Not only the coaching aspect, but also some ubiquitous small details that the Longteng team cannot yet appreciate.

Secondly, Xu Mingyu arrived in Europe one day earlier and was able to be exposed to the European football environment one day earlier. Even if he could not play many games in Sporting Lisbon, he could establish a good relationship with those European players earlier and formally understand what playing football abroad is all about.

What is it, especially since he had an unhappy past in Portugal.

But whether to go abroad or not, not only the club must consider this, but also the opinions of the players and their parents are also very important. In order not to temporarily affect Xu Mingyu's competition in the World Youth Championship, Zhang Sheng chose not to tell him first.

Instead, I contacted Xu Mingyu’s father, Xu Angran first.

Xu Angran was also hesitant about this invitation, because Xu Mingyu's previous two-year training trip to Portugal left him with lingering fears. In those two years, Xu Mingyu was still a child who couldn't speak Portuguese at all. Even though he tried very hard to think abroad,

He integrated into the team, but the inherent recognition and contempt of Chinese players by foreign players made him very unhappy. That study abroad experience almost made Xu Mingyu give up his football career.

Zhang Sheng also carefully analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of whether to stay or not to stay in Europe for Xu Angran. In the end, Xu Angran still had not decided. His opinion was to wait until Xu Mingyu returned from Turkey after playing the World Youth Championship.

Xu Mingyu's own attitude. Zhang Sheng had to agree with him.

The day before Zhang Sheng was about to take the team to participate in the next league game, the National Youth Team ushered in its second World Youth Championship game. The opponent was El Salvador, which was considered the weakest among the 24 teams.

El Salvador participated in the World Youth Championship by virtue of winning third place in the 2o13 U2O CONCACAF Nations Cup. This was also their first time participating in the World Youth Championship. However, El Salvador's U2O lineup is very weak and even needs to recruit several American college league players.

Gather together the number of players to fight. Even if the so-called European players in the lineup include Brondby (Danish League team) forward Overlange, Zurich defender Baum Gartner and Lyon defender Oliva Ayala,

He just plays in the youth team of his team, and his combat effectiveness is quite limited, so he cannot make much contribution to the team at all.

In fact, El Salvador once lost to Mexico U2O 0 to 3 in the group stage of the U2O CONCACAF Nations Cup, and suffered another defeat in the top four with an O to 2 defeat, which reflects that the strength of El Salvador U2O is still far behind other opponents.

In addition, the players in the team generally lack experience in fighting, and stage fright seems to be inevitable, so basically the media did not see them qualifying from the group stage.

Faced with such an opponent whose strength is far inferior to that of the Chinese National Youth Team, Rick Link's total offense and total defense tactics have their place.

After the opening, the National Youth Team used the Longteng team's usual pressing style to pin the El Salvador team in their backcourt. Several players in the midfield used their technical advantages to set off an offensive frenzy.

In the 23rd minute of the first half, the National Youth Team used the extraordinary cooperation between Qin Minghao and Xu Mingyu to completely penetrate the opponent's defense. Finally, Xu Mingyu passed the ball and Qin Minghao broke the ball with a light shot.

deadlock.

In the 44th minute, the National Youth Team won the sixth corner kick of the first half. Li Yun, who came up to participate in the offensive corner kick, used his header to expand the score to 2:o.

After scoring the goal, Li Yunze and the Longteng players came to the sidelines and recreated Bebeto's classic cradle-cradling celebration. Liu Jianhong, who was in charge of commentating the game, also laughed and said: "After nearly half a year, I have recovered from a serious injury.

After recovering, Li Yun's performance has become more and more mature. He can not only direct the team's defense in the backcourt, but also have the ability to header the ball in the frontcourt attack. It should be said that the Chinese team has the ability to position the central defender in the future.

He has created an excellent talent reserve. His celebration should be to celebrate the upcoming birth of the child of his club’s mentor, coach Zhang Sheng.”

Tao Wei, the guest commentator of his partner, also said: "Li Yun should really thank coach Zhang Sheng. He is a player that coach Zhang brought back from Europe. It was coach Zhang who changed him from the forward position to the center back. This is a great match for Li Yun."

Your growth is so important. Hey, Jianhong, have you ever noticed that the two strongest players on the Long Teng team are both brought back by Coach Zhang from abroad, and Qin Minghao was also brought back by him from Brazil."

Liu Jianhong also said: "Yes. Even Xu Mingyu returned from studying in Portugal for two years. It seems that Coach Zhang has a very good relationship with these young Chinese players abroad. We also hope that Coach Zhang can discover more good things."

Young players.”

In their commentary, the National Youth Team ended the first half of the game.

In the second half, the National Youth Team's passing and control cooperation became more comfortable due to the opponent's reduced physical fitness. In the 17th minute, Xu Mingyu used his foot skills to cause a foul on the opponent's player. The National Youth Team gained a very good forward position.

Free kick opportunity.

Liu Jianhong said: "The position of this free kick is very good. In the current national youth team, whether it is Qin Minghao, Xu Mingyu, or even Lin Feng, they all have good free kick skills. It depends on who takes the kick."

Standing in front of the ball on the field were Qin Minghao and Xu Mingyu. After Qin Minghao ran over the ball with a feint, Xu Mingyu took a free kick with his left foot. The ball directly bypassed the Salvador wall and landed in front of the goal.

There was an obvious drop and then got into the net, and the National Youth Team took the lead with a score of 3:o.

Liu Jianhong also applauded the goal: "The ball went in, it went in, it went in. After Xu Mingyu passed and shot in the last game, this game is another pass and shot. This 18-year-old player has blossomed."

His talent is fully displayed when facing opponents who are generally two years older than him. We also look forward to his bright future."

Aurelio Pereira was not the only scout watching the National Youth Team play on the sidelines this time. The excellent performance of the National Youth Team in the last game made many European club scouts turn their attention to China.

For the National Youth Team, scouts watching from the sidelines were all over the clubs in most of the mainstream leagues in Europe. Xu Mingyu's outstanding performance made many scouts draw heavy strokes on their notepads or electronic devices.

Seeing Xu Mingyu's performance, Aurelio Pereira was also a little worried. He saw at least 5 or 6 club scouts on the court, which he knew, and there were probably more who he didn't know. Although he had

He was one step ahead and sent an inquiry request to the Longteng team. Who knows if other teams will do the same? It seems that he should step up his contact with the Longteng team. After all, he has the first advantage and knows the Chinese National Youth Team.

The team's coach.

After leading 3:0, Rick Link was completely relieved. With more than 20 minutes left in the game, he replaced Xu Mingyu and let him have a good rest and prepare for the next hard battle. Then he will

Li Yun was replaced. After all, Li Yun had only recovered from his injury for more than a month. As his most trusted defensive core, it would be good to have more rest.

After Xu Mingyu and Li Yun came off the field, the National Youth Team's control ability dropped drastically, mainly because the two players who came on the bench were too far behind them in terms of strength. At the same time, they were not used to the behavior of the Longteng players on the field.

Rhythm of the game. In the 83rd minute, El Salvador got a goal back from their forward Ovelange.

Rick Link also replaced Qin Minghao with a defensive midfielder and began to strengthen the defense of the National Youth Team. However, this substitution made the National Youth Team even more passive. In the last few minutes, the National Youth Team played in a very awkward manner.

.Fortunately, there was not much time, and the National Youth Team held on to win. (To be continued.)
