15. League promotion

Unlike the rough Gamba players, Lin Feng easily passed the opponent and rushed forward decisively. Another midfielder of Gamba Osaka, Shohei Omuku, quickly came to defend, but Lin Feng's football IQ was very high, and he was not obsessed with it.

In the previous pass, the ball was given to Zhou Zhou who came in at high speed from the right. The latter played a beautiful one-two with Lin Feng, knocking out Gamba's midfielder Shohei Komuku and left back Iwashita.

Fu left behind.

Gamba Osaka, who was completely empty on the left, could only let the center back and another midfielder Yasuhito Endo fill in. However, Lin Feng had obviously anticipated their defensive thinking, and he did not continue to hand the ball to the already successful player.

Instead of Zhou Zhou at the bottom, he distributed the ball to Tao Wentao who came to meet him from the middle.

The center where Tao Wentao is now seems very loose because all the defensive players have gone to the left. The Gamba Osaka players who came from the right to fill in have just arrived. Tao Wentao did not waste this opportunity and distributed the ball to the left winger.

Ben Alpha, because his side is completely empty.

Giving such a loose opportunity to a player like Ben Alpha means losing the ball. Sure enough, Ben Alpha easily carried the ball into the penalty area. This time he did not hit the goal from a small angle, but made an inverted triangle pass.

Given to the middle, Nie Jiang in the middle easily scored against the completely empty goal, and the score became 0:2.

The Longteng team launched an attack from the midfield this time, relying on passing passes to continuously mobilize the opponent's defensive focus, and finally scored a goal. The process was very clear and basically did not give the opponent a chance to adjust their defense. It was a textbook Barcelona-style goal.

Compared with the first goal, Zhang Sheng valued this goal more, because this goal better reflected his training content during this winter training period, which was to open up gaps through passing, and the last shot was the kind of running game.

An empty-net goal that can be scored when in place.

After this goal, the Longteng team basically killed the game. Gamba Osaka, who had already made two substitutions, did not have many cards to play, while the Longteng team had three substitutions, which was more than enough.

It is room for adjustment.

The players of Gamba Osaka looked at the Longteng players who were running excitedly on the field in a daze. Usami Takashi now looked at Nie Jiang with envy. This Chinese player has broken his own record as the youngest goal scorer in the AFC Champions League.

, the head coach mentioned him specifically before the game, and now he has scored again. Look at the two foreign players who created opportunities for him. This is a gap in strength.

In the next game, Zhang Sheng started to adjust his personnel. He replaced Lu Zhihui with Wei Zhimin to let the young player experience the AFC Champions League game. Then he replaced Lin Feng with Yao Tian, ​​who ran for the whole game, and moved Tao Wentao back.

Play as a defensive midfielder and continue to maintain the running ability in the midfield.

In the end, the game ended with 0:2. The Longteng team completed their first appearance in the AFC Champions League group stage and won a crucial victory.

With the joy of victory, the Longteng team returned to Jiangcheng and prepared to face the next AFC Champions League game. This time the opponent was Buriram United, a Thai giant similar to Guangzhou Evergrande-it has only a short rise.

They have excellent results and are getting stronger step by step in the AFC Champions League. Historically, Guangzhou R&F lost 1-2 to them at home and was beaten 5-0 in the away game, which completely embarrassed them.

Even though they are just a Thai team, Buriram United's performance is not bad when facing Chinese Super League teams. They defeated Guangzhou Evergrande in the AFC Champions League in the 2012 season and defeated Jiangsu in the AFC Champions League in the 2013 season.

Sainty and Sendai Tanabata qualified as second place. In the subsequent quarter-finals, Buriram United unexpectedly eliminated Uzbekistan's powerful team Benyudko, but was defeated by Tehran in the quarter-finals.

Independently eliminated and stopped in the quarterfinals, this has created the best result for a Thai team participating in the AFC Champions League.

In last year's AFC Champions League group, they were placed in a group with Shandong Luneng and remained undefeated with a score of 1:1 in the away game and 1:0 at home. It can be said that the Chinese Super League team looked more like a weakling in front of them.

This is a typical Southeast Asian team. The players have certain personal abilities and can cooperate quickly in passing and receiving. In addition, there are more than 12 Thai international players in the team. It is even more difficult when facing the Chinese Super League team with rough footwork.

The advantages are obvious, but the team's weaknesses are also obvious, that is, the players are thin and short and cannot defend high-altitude balls.

Before the game, Zhang Sheng solemnly mentioned to the players that they should not underestimate this team, but during the game, he still found that his pre-match warning was not deep enough, because shortly after the start, Buriram United used Longteng players to underestimate the enemy.

Scored a goal with his attitude.

After taking the lead, Buriram United was very smart and immediately retreated from all fronts, not giving the Longteng team a chance to counterattack. Zhang Sheng stood on the sidelines and saw that the players who were attacking with all their strength were unable to regain the score, with a dark face the whole time.

During the halftime break, Zhang Sheng criticized the players one by one for their messy play. In the last game, Zhang Sheng felt that his players had become mature after a year of playing in the AFC Champions League. In the blink of an eye, these players were carried away.

He used his own attitude to tell the players that he was very dissatisfied because all his instructions and reminders before the game fell on deaf ears.

The players who had been criticized carefully drank water and wiped sweat, for fear that any big move would make Zhang Sheng's temper explode. The atmosphere in the locker room was once very depressing.

As the captain of the team, Lin Feng lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. It wasn't until the end of the halftime break that he stood up and said: "Coach, I'm sorry, let's look at us in the second half. Nothing can be as real as our goal."

.”

Zhang Sheng snorted and did not answer. In fact, the tactics before the game had been laid out very carefully, and there was nothing more that needed to be said.

After the start of the second half, the offense led by Lin Feng changed. He no longer insisted on attacking from the center. Instead, after opening up the opponent's side defense, he frequently made crosses. Finally, in the 58th minute,

, Lu Zhihui, who went from assisting to the frontcourt, knocked on the opponent's door with his header.

After the goal, the mentality of the Longteng team relaxed a lot. Zhang Sheng also began to adjust the players. He replaced Nie Jiang, who did not perform very well, with Zou Weijia. His attitude towards playing golf was very clear.

Sure enough, this substitution had an effect. Zou Weijia, who is 1.88 meters tall, strong and has strong header ability, scored a go-ahead header from a corner kick in the 67th minute, and the situation was finally reversed.

In the remaining game, the skills of the Longteng team were not inferior to those of their opponents, and the physically stronger Longteng team completely controlled the situation on the field. In the final stage of the game, Pato scored another header, completely killing the game.

As the Longteng team ended the game with a score of 3:1, they firmly occupied the first place in the group with two consecutive wins in the group stage, making a good start for the upcoming Chinese Super League.

After entering March, the start of the 2015 Chinese Super League season is getting closer and closer. Zhang Sheng and the Longteng team are making final preparations before the season. Because the league is approaching, the team does not conduct heavy exercise training, but instead

Focusing on adaptive training, Zhang Sheng also opened the system, preparing to check the attributes of himself and his players before the season, and then determine the final main lineup for this season based on his own tactics. He also made a pre-season call.

At the end of last season, Zhang Sheng did not upgrade the system due to the average team performance. All the summoning conditions for this season have not changed, and the summoning points and winning streaks left over from last season have been retained until now.

According to the summoning conditions of the system, after playing the game against Buriram United, Zhang Sheng scored 160 points and also achieved the summoning conditions for 5 consecutive victories. Before the start of the new season of the Chinese Super League, Zhang Sheng obtained

Got 2 chances to summon.

Zhang Sheng still focused on the coach this time, because this winter, Longteng Football School made adjustments and expansions.

First of all, the football school has divided the echelons again. The previously planned echelons of the Longteng team were U9, U13 and U17. However, as football has become more and more popular in recent years, a large number of parents have begun to send their children to the football school.

, only three echelons are already difficult to satisfy the young players for daily training and competition.

At the current football school, the U9 coach takes care of children aged 9-12, the U13 coach takes care of children aged 13-16, and the U17 coach takes young people aged 17-21. In order to make these children and young people more hierarchical, Zhang

After discussions between Sheng and Heike Fogel, they decided to add a few more levels. After that, Longteng Football School will have six levels: U9, U11, U13, U15, U17, U19 and above.

Secondly, Longteng Club has established new football school branches in all cities and towns in Hubei Province. This means that Longteng Club has completed the layout of the youth training echelon in Hubei Province. Next, in addition to expanding to surrounding provinces and cities, it will slowly expand.

Slowly replenish or dig into the youth training resources in the province.

The adjustment and expansion of the football school have left a huge gap in the club's youth training coaches. Zhang Sheng's call this time is to fill this gap.

The four coaches summoned this time came very quickly. Just the day after Zhang Sheng's summons was completed, these four coaches came to the club together. These are four very young coaches. They all come from professional sports backgrounds.

They are college graduates, and they are all returnees. They have coached youth training in various European countries before, but they have just started their coaching careers - they have just coached in the youth training of the club for 2-3 years.

These four coaches are all around 28-30 years old, when they are full of career pursuit ideas. In their view, now is their opportunity to return to China with new European knowledge and coaching experience to help domestic football advance.

The Human Resources Department of Longteng Club has been tirelessly looking for capable and experienced youth training coaches in Europe. This time, the four coaches were found by the staff of the Human Resources Department through a headhunting agency, and then they were uniformly arranged.

Go to the club for an interview.

Zhang Sheng is very satisfied with these four coaches. Through talking with them, it can be seen that they have a rich reserve of knowledge in youth training, and although their youth training coaching experience is not long, they have their own ideas.

A person who can use knowledge flexibly.

The arrival of the four of them can greatly improve the current talent gap of Longteng Football School. Heike Fogel, who had been crying to Zhang Sheng about the lack of talents, finally smiled. With so many masters coming at once, he finally began to breathe a sigh of relief.

After solving the problem of the youth training coach, Zhang Sheng began to check his own information and that of his players.

After calling up the system, Zhang Sheng saw a shocking message, that is, the system prompted that the Chinese Super League had been upgraded. Judging from the information prompted by the system, the overall level of the Chinese Super League had been greatly improved this time -

The average ability value of Chinese Super League players has increased by 2-3 points, and the average potential value of Chinese Super League players has increased by 5 points.

When Zhang Sheng took a closer look, it turned out that he had completed the first phase of a long-term mission.

Previously, the system girl issued a long-term task to Zhang Sheng - Making Progress Together. This task system did not give an indicator for complete completion, but divided it into several stages. The first stage task was to provide 10 capable people for the entire Chinese Super League.

Domestic players worth more than 70.

Zhang Sheng did not expect to complete this task before this season at first, because according to his understanding, there are indeed more than ten domestic players with abilities over 70 from the Longteng team, but they include Li Yun, Qin Minghao, Xu Ming

Yu and Ding Huaiyi both went to Europe to study abroad and did not stay in China. Unexpectedly, the system still prompted them to complete the task.

Zhang Shenghe asked the system girl strangely: "Is this a benefit this time? How come this task was completed?"

The system girl patiently explained to Zhang Sheng: "The improvement of the overall strength of the Chinese Super League is not just about sending players to other Chinese Super League teams. As long as you send players, whether they are sent domestically or abroad, it will be improved.

The influence of the Chinese Super League. Selling to domestic clubs will directly improve the level of other teams in the Chinese Super League. But if you send players to Europe, once they recognize the level of Chinese players, it will also let European clubs know the level of Chinese players.

They will keep a close eye on domestic players, giving them more possibilities to play in Europe and stimulating their performance. For example, this time Guangzhou Evergrande’s Zhang Linpeng not only wants to go to Europe life or death, but there are also European teams that really want to go to Europe.

Buy him? Without you sending players to Europe, how could this happen?"

"So how does the average potential of players increase?" Zhang Sheng asked curiously.

This time, the system girl seemed to have become a considerate and intimate sister who knew everything and said everything: "Isn't this normal? Do you think Chinese players are really that unsuitable for football? Nowadays, most of the Chinese Super League players

The comprehensive ability index is less than 70, the players who have the ability to be selected for the national team are around 70, the main players of the national team are over 70, and there are a few core players who are 74-75. This ability index goes to the teams in the five major European leagues.

Basically, they can't play in the game. I don't think you would think that these players only have this little potential. They have just played in low-level competitions for a long time, and their potential has been reduced a lot. Now the overall level of competition is

As it improves, the potential value will slowly recover."
