After the game started, the final attracted the attention of many European scouts.
Because Lee Seung-woo is the future star of Barcelona, many European giants have been tracking and inspecting him for a long time. His performance is also very good, which has left a deep impression on many people. The quarter-finals against Australia , Lee Seung-woo scored twice. The second goal was a 60-meter run, passing five Australian defenders and past the goalkeeper. In the semi-finals, the South Korean team beat Syria 7-1, and Lee Seung-woo scored 1 ball and sent 4 assists.
Lee Seung-woo became famous in the 2011 Catalonia VS South Korea Youth Challenge. At that time, Lee Seung-woo's Korean U14 youth team defeated the Barcelona youth team 3-2. Lee Seung-woo, who performed well, also signed a contract with Barcelona. However, Barcelona was reported for illegal recruitment and was punished. FIFA severely fined Lee Seung-woo, a typical example of Barcelona's illegal recruitment. He was subsequently banned by FIFA and could only wait until he reached 18 years old before representing Barcelona in official games. In other words, Lee Seung-woo could not play on behalf of Barcelona in various sports before 2016. Official matches of the event. In Barcelona, he can only participate in friendly matches, and only in the Korean National Youth Team, he can participate in official matches.
Although he later recommended himself to Real Madrid, the Korean media has always claimed that Lee Seung-woo was the player snatched away from Barcelona by Real Madrid.
But he is not the most dazzling player in this Asian Minor Championship, because there is a more outstanding player - Nie Jiang of the Chinese team.
From the group stage to the semi-finals, Nie Jiang has scored nine goals and four assists, far exceeding Li Shengyou's five goals.
In fact, as early as after the Chinese team entered the quarter-finals, European scouts had already set their sights on him. Nie Jiang's comprehensive technical ability, superb shooting skills, smart running, and strong support capabilities made those players Look at the probing frequency frequently.
After the start of the final, both Li Shengyou and Nie Jiang were closely guarded by both sides. There were at least two players following them closely, but even this did not affect their performance.
In this game, the head coach of the National Youth Team, Zhang Haitao, abandoned the young players from other Chinese Super League teams who played before, and instead let a large number of non-call players from the Longteng team play. The overall tactics of the Chinese team were much better than before. .
Several of the Long Teng team's summoned players finally have qualified supporting roles, especially Zeng Prosperity in the middle of the midfield who can play the ball purposefully in the midfield and get the ball comfortably.
In the first half, Li Shengyou showed his power first. He continuously broke through the three defenses in the midfield and shot hard. In the end, Huang Dawei saved him from the bottom line. After finishing the shot, Li Shengyou turned around and looked at Nie Jiang with contempt. His provocation was clearly exposed.
However, Nie Jiang was completely different from him. He had grown up in a complex family environment and had played football with social players who were much older than him for a long time. He had already known what it meant to strike later and wait for opportunities.
Sure enough, in the 32nd minute of the first half, when he saw that the Korean team's defensive players were slightly relaxed, Nie Jiang showed his sharp fangs. After receiving the pass from Zeng Prosperity, he suddenly accelerated. He started, passed between the two players who were guarding him, and then passed the ball to Cao Jinghao, who was on the left, and continued to advance. Cao Jinghao saw that Nie Jiang had taken away the defense, and decisively entered the penalty area and shot. The South Korean team's defensive focus was entirely on Nie Jiang. Cao Jinghao's shot was too easy, and the Chinese team also turned the score into 1:0.
Nie Jiang smiled jokingly at Li Shengyou and walked away.
Li Shengyou, who was furious, continued to strengthen his personal breakthroughs in the following games in order to express himself. However, the Longteng team's long-term defensive formation was so error-prone. He passed one or two, but could not pass everyone.
Until the end of the first half, the Chinese team led 1:0.
During the halftime break, Lee Seung-woo was severely criticized by the head coach of the Korean National Youth Team, and he finally calmed down.
After calming down, Li Shengyou was still very threatening. Although he also used his skills to make breakthroughs in the second half, he moved the ball more quickly, and even if he didn't have the ball, the Chinese team would still have to spend a lot of force on him.
In the 32nd minute of the second half, Li Shengyou attracted many defenders from the Chinese team and opened up a gap for his teammates. The forward of the Korean team successfully shot without being marked, and the score became 1:1.
In the subsequent games, both sides paid more attention to the overall defense. Nie Jiang and Li Shengyou were looked at even worse, and the score remained in a draw.
However, before the end of the game, Nie Jiang's frequent running and involvement still caused the Korean team players to make mistakes. His shot in front of the penalty area hit the goal post and was cleared by the Korean team. Nie Jiang was also a little regretful. Shake his head.
However, facing this corner kick, Nie Jiang had his own idea. He asked Zeng Prosperity to send a message to the dog star who came on the field in the second half: "The dog star is tall, but they will surround me even more. I will give him a gap. Let him head the ball."
Zeng Fusheng, who had always admired Nie Jiang very much, agreed without hesitation and then conveyed it to Wang Xing.
Sure enough, after Zeng Wengrong took the corner kick, three members of the Korean team gathered around Nie Jiang. Nie Jiang cleverly rushed forward and drew the defensive attention of the three players. How could Wang Xing in the middle let this go? At the opportunity, he jumped up high without being marked, and Wang Xing, who was 1.8 meters tall, headed the ball hard into the dead center of the goal. The South Korean team's goalkeeper was not in a hurry to save and could only watch the ball go into the net. The Chinese team was in The final shot was made at the last minute.
In the end, the Chinese team also defeated its opponent with a score of 2:1 and won the 2014 U16 Asian Championship.
After the game, Nie Jiang was named the best player of the game. At the same time, he also won the top scorer and MVP of this Asian Youth Championship with nine goals, firmly suppressing Li Shengyou.
Zhang Sheng, who has been paying attention to this Asian Youth Championship, has to applaud Nie Jiang's wonderful performance. He plays so smart on the court and his grasp of people's hearts is far superior to his opponents of the same age.
After the game, Nie Jiang received numerous requests to meet with European teams. As the head coach, Zhang Haitao obviously did not dare to make the decision without authorization. The Longteng team was now in full swing in the Chinese Super League, and Zhang Sheng's influence was also growing. Zhang Haitao encountered this. question, the first reaction was to find Zhang Sheng.
After Zhang Sheng thanked Zhang Haitao for the notice, he asked him to refuse all meeting requests. It is not the time for Nie Jiang to go to Europe to play football. He is still too young. Longteng Club will definitely mention Nie Jiang next season. For the first team, Zhang Sheng has received news that the Chinese Football Association will reform the qualifications for professional players next season. Players who are 16 years old can participate in professional games, and Nie Jiang will be 17 next season. , is completely ready to play. Zhang Sheng is ready to lay a solid foundation for him first, and then let him go to Europe.
Otherwise, according to the requirements of FIFA, Asian players under the age of 18 cannot obtain European professional league participation certificates. If they go to European teams to play amateur level games, it is better to let Nie Jiang play the main force in the Chinese Super League.
, look at the young players in Europe in history, who played in the amateur league? Are the European amateur leagues more meaningful than the Chinese Super League?
Zhang Sheng never felt that way.
With the return of players from the national team and the national junior team, the players of the Longteng team have become a little more unified. Zhang Sheng finally has time to let the team participate in training new tactics.
After all, Lin Feng cannot play now, and we have to wait until the players of the Longteng team are all alive, at least until the players of the Olympic team who participated in the Asian Games return to China, but who knows what the results of the Olympic team will be. Once they perform well, they will really win.
If you make it to the finals, you will have to wait until at least October 2nd, and during the period before that, the Longteng team will be very hard.
Lin Feng was seriously injured, Zhou Zhou was also injured for two weeks, and the Dragon Team had indeed reached the point where no one was available.
Several players of the national team returned to the team on September 11. Zhang Sheng was very humane and gave them two days off to let them have a good rest. Although the next Chinese Super League game will be on
When the war started on September 14, Zhang Sheng still believed that one-on-one relaxation was the way to go in civil and military affairs.
Because Lin Feng could not compete, Zhang Sheng placed Tao Wentao in Lin Feng's position. However, Tao Wentao and Lin Feng's playing styles are very different. At the same time, although Tao Wentao has stronger potential than Lin Feng, after all, his actual performance is
Their ability is far inferior to that of Lin Feng. From the system display, one is 75 and the other is 70. You can see the gap between the two of them. This is the comparison after Lin Feng was injured and his ability value declined.
Lin Feng is the kind of player who can run up and down, has a balanced offense and defense, and relies on passing and receiving to organize the game. Tao Wentao is not inferior to him in terms of physical fitness, but his up and down ability is not as good as Lin Feng, but Tao Wentao also has his own advantages, that is his
Lin Feng's foot skills are much better, and his last pass is very threatening.
Therefore, Lin Feng is more like a B2B midfielder, and Tao Wentao is more like a defensive midfielder who plays behind the attacking midfielder. With their different styles, the Longteng team will of course have to make different tactical arrangements. Fortunately, Tao Wentao is the team's main rotation player, and everyone is very
Familiar with Tao Wentao, and considering that Tao Wentao often plays, Zhang Sheng has consciously arranged a lot of tactics for him after he plays, but now Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff need to refine these tactics in depth.
When Zhang Sheng took out all his tactical accelerators to cheer for the team in training, the club received numerous official letters from European clubs requesting to meet to discuss Nie Jiang.
Among them are the names of top giants such as Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich. Even the two Red Bulls, Sporting Lisbon, Porto, Ajax, and Leicester City who have been linked to the Dragons have also been found.
Zhang Sheng, apparently they thought that since Nie Jiang was favored by those big football clubs and could no longer retain him, they might as well use their priority first.
Zhang Sheng did not reject their request arbitrarily, but Zhang Sheng set his own requirements for all the clubs. He could let Nie Jiang go, but he had to join the first team, and he was sure to have enough in the contract.
In terms of playing time, Zhang Sheng's requirements are obviously too demanding.
Although Nie Jiang is capable, it is not enough to determine his position in the first team of these clubs. Not to mention teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern, even Premier League relegation teams like Leicester City are not able to play now.
Competitive.
Originally, when Heike Fogel heard that Nie Jiang was being watched by these teams, he was very excited and wanted Nie Jiang to go to Europe to practice. So when he heard Zhang Sheng's request, he felt very incredible. In such a situation
Training in the youth training teams of wealthy families is much better than training in the reserve teams of the Chinese Super League.
However, Zhang Sheng quickly convinced Heike Fogel with his own reasons. No matter how young team games are played, they are still youth team games, and no matter how low-level Chinese Super League games are, they are still professional games for the adult team. If Nie Jiang can play in a team like Longteng,
Playing in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League in the team is definitely better than training in a youth team in Europe.
When those teams wanted to bypass the Longteng team and contact Nie Jiang directly, they discovered that the relationship between Nie Jiang and the Longteng club was completely beyond their imagination. Nie Jiang trusted Zhang Sheng 100%, and his private operations were not the same.
If it succeeds, even if it works successfully, once the Longteng team files a lawsuit with FIFA, Li Shengyou's current embarrassing situation will be Nie Jiang's future.
However, those European giants still have enough understanding of the Dragon Football Club. They began to have a deep understanding of this emerging Chinese club and registered it in their own club files. Who is it that the Dragon Football Team's performance is so eye-catching, and China
The market is so important.
Nie Jiang's affairs have come to an end for the time being, but Zhang Sheng knows that Nie Jiang will go to Europe in no more than three years. After all, that is the stage for his performance.
While communicating with Nie Jiang, Zhang Sheng also conducted a thorough investigation of the football school. The National Junior Team's Asian Junior Championship gave Zhang Sheng a lot of confidence. Those non-calling players, represented by Wang Xing, have proven that
Even if you don't have the help of the system, you can still train qualified talents. It's just a matter of faster or slower time.
At the same time, another good news this time is that Zhang Sheng completed the task submitted to the system ahead of schedule - what he did was better than what he said.
This task was a task that Zhang Sheng made a bet with the system girl after he discovered Wang Xing, a non-system summon player - to make Wang Xing's ability value reach 40 within a year. Now it has not even been a year yet. Wang Xing's
The ability has exceeded 40 - it is not difficult to see from the system that the dog has an ability value of 42.
Seeing that the task had been completed, Zhang Sheng happily summoned the system girl. She was able to complete the system task ahead of schedule. Zhang Sheng could pretend to be a B in front of the system girl who had always been a stinker. Besides, completing the task ahead of schedule can also get benefits from the system.
Maybe the girl can get some more good stuff from there.
