Red Diamond is a team with a rich history. Its predecessor is Shenzhen Ping An, a well-known strong team in Chinese football. It once won the league championship in the first year of 2004 and also played until 2005.
The semi-finals of the AFC Champions League, but this was just a flash in the pan. Due to financial reasons, the team's situation went from bad to worse, and it was finally demoted to the Chinese League One last year.
?b?i?q?u?g?
After the team was relegated, conflicts within the Red Diamonds broke out. Yu Huaiying, the former vice-chairman of Birmingham and former general manager of Shenzhen Red Diamonds, took this opportunity to recruit a group of players from Red Diamonds and invited famous football players from China.
Vice Chairman of the Football Association Rong Zhixing and officials from the Shenzhen Municipal Government and the Football Association stood up for the team in a high-profile manner. They wanted to make a profit from the opportunity to be promoted from the Second Division to the First Division, but the Red Diamonds' relegation this year dealt a big blow to the players and pulled them over.
The players are obviously lacking in energy.
Before the game, Yu Huaiying was very ambitious, because the Longteng team had only been established for a very short period of time, and there was no player with experience in the Chinese League One, let alone one. In his own team, there were only players with experience in the Chinese League One.
As many as 7. Although most of them are just substitute players, judging from their resumes, they are obviously higher than those of the Longteng team.
In the team's dressing room, Brian, the head coach of Shenzhen Yihua Jewelry, a former Arsenal player, and a former coach of Crystal Palace, was easily mobilizing the players before the game. The Chinese head coach Mai Ze was translating: "The opponent's ball
The team is a new team. It has only played in amateur leagues before, and the team has not introduced experienced players for the first division. Facing such a weak team, what I hope to see is a big victory and more success.
Get the goal difference and prepare for qualifying later. Come on everyone."
While Bryan declared victory in advance, Zhang Sheng was also encouraging the players in the visiting team's locker room.
"This is your first time playing a regular professional game. I guess many of you have hands and feet shaking nervously now. Will you be able to walk steadily later?" After saying that, Zhang Sheng glanced at the legs that were obviously shaking.
Liu Xing.
The players below burst into good-natured laughter. Liu Xing blushed when he saw everyone looking at him, lowered his head and argued: "I'm not nervous, I'm excited. I was just thinking about whether I could score a goal on the court."
Woolen cloth."
Zhang Sheng joked: "Yes, this is a good idea, but you can't score goals by shaking your legs." After everyone stopped laughing again, Zhang Sheng became serious, "Actually, you don't have to worry about the opposite team at all.
, although several of their main players came from the Chinese team, they came from the relegated Chinese team. Do you know what a lost dog is? That is the best way to describe them. The team has been relegated to the Chinese League.
, just thinking about taking advantage of the second-division team, do you really think that the second-division league is so easy to play? Once the players lose their confidence and ambition, they will be a group of defeated generals and a group of cowards."
"I guess they are also thinking about scoring goals now, thinking that they can win by just kicking. Their attitude in this game is far inferior to ours." Zhang Sheng, who had simulated many confrontations before the game, predicted with disdain.
.
"A team that has no ambition and is arrogant will never be successful. I agree with Liu Xing's idea. As long as we play according to the established tactics, we will definitely score goals. Now when the outside world looks at us, they say we are
It’s a new team, and there’s no big investment. Is it because our club has no money? Is it because our club can’t recruit players? None. Before the start of the season, many people from the club and the company group advised me, saying, ‘Coach Zhang, look at this.
Many players have bought a lot of players with experience in successfully rushing to the first league, and some teams directly recruited players from China and the Chinese League. Should we also buy a few such players? Otherwise, this year’s rush to the first league will be very difficult.
It’s difficult.’” Zhang Sheng couldn’t help but clenched his fists as he spoke.
"The club originally prepared more than 500 funds to invest heavily in the purchase of players. But I refused. It is you who know why you are here now, not the so-called experienced players. It sounds good to say it out.
Are you a Chinese or Chinese player? Because I firmly believe that those of you who have not played in the echelon of professional teams due to various reasons, have not been favored by other teams, and are not favored by anyone, are the best in my heart.
Players, each of you." Zhang Sheng pointed at each player one by one, "I have carefully selected the players that I am optimistic about. Your strength is far more than what you show. You are far stronger than you think.
In order to prove your own strength, in this game, we will give a big surprise to the opponents who came down from the game with high spirits."
After saying this, Zhang Sheng calmed down for a while, then looked at his watch and said, "Let's go, let's go on the field. Let our opponents in the second division realize how strong we are."
The game started soon. Because it was the second division league, there were not many fans coming to watch the game. The stands of the Shenzhen Stadium, which can accommodate more than 3 people, only had a scattered audience of 2 or 3,000.
After guessing the coin, Shenzhen Yihua Jewelry won the right to kick off. Forward Li Jiaqi, who followed Yu Huaiying from the Red Diamonds team, took the ball and started to rush towards the Longteng team's half. However, he took the ball less than 5 meters and the ball was passed by Longteng.
The team's defensive midfielder Gao Jun broke. Li Jiaqi waved his hand disapprovingly and stood there. Zou Peng, the veteran midfielder who also transferred from the Red Diamonds, also symbolically grabbed Gao Jun and saw Gao Jun as if he had been stung by a scorpion.
Suddenly, he quickly passed the ball to Huang Zongwei on the right. Zou Peng was frightened and thought: "As soon as the ball was snatched, it was passed out as if it was on fire. I am really a novice."
After getting the ball, Huang Zongwei took two steps with the ball. When he saw the opponent's players coming to grab it, he quickly passed the ball to Qin Minghao. Qin Minghao observed that there was an obvious gap between the opponent's center backs. Unexpectedly,
The ball was stopped with a quick through ball. Deng Qun, who was still swimming between the two central defenders, turned around and took the ball, forming a one-on-one shot. Then he made an arc with the outside of his left foot and scored the ball.
The goal.
After the goal, Deng Qun was stunned. He didn't expect the goal to come so easily. After all, Chen Hao next to him was a veteran. He immediately rushed over to hug Deng Qun, and then the team all came over to hug each other. It was only 2 seconds before the game started.
The goal was scored in just over a minute, which made the players extremely happy. It was not until the referee came to stop that everyone stopped celebrating.
The players of the Yihua Jewelry Team first regretted losing the ball, and then saw the players of the Longteng Team cheering as if they had won the game. They thought to themselves: "A bunch of country bumpkin players have never seen the world, haven't they ever scored a goal?
?”
Li Zhihai, the captain of the Yihua Jewelry Team and a central defender transferred from the Red Diamonds, loudly encouraged his teammates: "Everyone, cheer up. It's just one goal. It's still the opening game. There is more time. We will score more goals later."
It will be fine if we can bring it back a few times.”
The head coaches Brian and Mai on the sidelines also shouted angrily to the court: "Play more seriously, pay attention to your position, and concentrate."
The Yihua Jewelry Team players who kicked off again were much more serious this time, but the shortcomings of the Yihua Jewelry Team's short running-in time caused them to make passing errors. Players from the Red Diamond Team and players from the Guangzhou Youth Team were passing the ball.
There was a disagreement in their thinking, and the ball was passed directly to the sideline.
The Longteng team, which got the throw-in, got the ball and then began to pass the ball quickly on the field. The goal gave the players a lot of confidence. The long-term training results also showed. The players of Yihua Jewelry simply followed on the field.
They couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the Long Teng team. Every time they tried to grab the ball, the ball had already been passed out. They had to run with the ball. Soon, through fast passing and pulling, the Yihua Jewelry team's defensive formation was stretched.
, and then Chen Hao got a chance to shoot. However, this time the shot missed.
Brian on the sidelines waved his hands angrily and said: "Kick proactively, don't follow other people's rhythm, take a quick kick when it's time to take a step, and everyone should stand firm."
Yihua Jewelry Team finally got the ball. After goalkeeper Zhu Zhengxian took the ball with a big kick, the ball was lost again. Zou Peng, who was competing with Gao Jun for the top position, found that he was careless. He thought that with his 1.8m
With a height of only 1.77 meters, he would definitely be able to compete with Gao Jun, who looked relatively thin, but he found that the opponent's bounce was beyond his imagination. Gao Jun jumped up and was actually a head taller than himself, and when his own body collided with him, his body
Still maintaining balance, he easily passed the ball to his teammates.
After the duel, Zou Peng immediately ran to the Longteng player holding the ball, trying to interfere with his passing, but it didn't work at all. The Longteng right back No. 5 flexibly flicked his ankle and passed the ball back to the center.
Defender Wang Peng, Wang Peng then transferred the ball to Li Yun, Li Yun passed the ball to Zhou Hai, the ball was passed between the players of the Longteng team, and after passing the ball, the person who passed the ball immediately
Starting to run and find an opening to receive the ball, the players of Yihua Jewelry could only chase after the players of the Longteng team. The scene returned to the situation of being pressed and beaten just now.
Less than 40 minutes into the first half, the players of Yihua Jewelry were already breathing heavily. It was a terrible feeling to have to run and not get the ball.
When Qin Minghao got the ball again, Yihua Jewelry's player could only foul him. But before the alarm was lifted, Qin Minghao's man was brought down, but the ball was passed smoothly and he was inserted from the left.
Liu Xingzai had already got the ball and broke into the penalty area. The referee saw that the offense was advantageous and ran directly after him.
At this time, Liu Xing saw two players rushing toward him, and immediately passed the ball to Chen Hao, who was pulling out of the penalty area. Chen Hao heard a voice calling him from behind: "Leave it!" He immediately feinted and let the ball pass.
Okay. It turned out to be Huang Zongwei from the right who assisted.
After receiving the ball, Huang Zongwei ran into the penalty area with the ball. Seeing that Liu Xing had gotten rid of the opponent's player, he immediately passed it to Liu Xing. After just defending Liu Xing, he turned and rushed towards Yihua Jewelry's two defensive players on the right.
Liu Xing's position was completely empty. After receiving the ball, Liu Xing shot a low shot. The goalkeeper did not rush to defend and the ball went in again.
