, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Football: Calling an Army!
Since the ability-level players of the Dragons national team were not selected for this training squad, there is only one possibility left - they will all be selected for the Olympic team.
Chen Jiangfeng is a student who just took the college entrance examination this year. He is a rare outlier among his classmates who likes football but not basketball.
In recent years, Chinese football has greatly improved due to the emergence of Zhang Sheng, but most children of Chen Jiangfeng's age have grown up with scandals such as "black ball" and "match-fixing" in Chinese football.
Neither the children nor their families have much interest in football.
The reason why Chen Jiangfeng is a football fan is because his father is a senior football fan.
After finishing the college entrance examination, Chen Jiangfeng, who has been admitted to his favorite school, is ready to use this summer vacation to make up for the time he lost watching football due to intense study in his senior year of high school.
Chen Jiangfeng, who has been paying attention to the Chinese national team and Olympic team, took the time to go to the official website of the Chinese Football Association to check the list announced this time.
Before the list came out, Chen Jiangfeng was mentally prepared that there would be a large number of Longteng teams in the National Olympic team. When he clicked on the list to announce it, Chen Jiangfeng still felt that he was dazzled and thought that the Chinese Football Association had sent the wrong list.
, and it became the league player list of the Longteng team.
Because fans read the list from beginning to end and found that they are basically all Dragons players. The only difference is that some players are current Dragons players and some players are former Dragons players.
Apart from the three or four well-developed young players who won the World Junior Championship with Nie Jiang and others, there are only two players left who are not from the Longteng team, Zhang Linpeng and Zengcheng.
It can be said that this Olympic team is a showcase of the Longteng team’s football achievements over the years.
On the front line, Nie Jiang and Zou Weijia are the absolute main players. In the midfield, the combination of former Longteng players and current Longteng players, led by overseas player Qin Minghao, occupies almost all positions of the main force and substitutes. On the back line, except for Zhang Linpeng,
In addition, the other main players are also players of the Longteng team. The goalkeeper position is the only bright spot. The main goalkeeper is the No. 1 national goalkeeper Zengcheng who was transferred from Guangzhou Evergrande, while the second goalkeeper and the third goalkeeper are Huang Dawei of the Longteng team respectively.
and Zhou Wei.
From the two rosters, Chen Jiangfeng saw the determination of the Chinese Football Association, which is to rather affect the training of the top 12 than to achieve results in the Olympics.
I had always heard my father brag before, saying that the Chinese Football Association was just a scapegoat and that a certain ministry behind it was the real person in charge. Chen Jiangfeng didn't believe it before, but now it seems that the Olympic achievements are really more important than anything else.
In fact, what Chen Jiangfeng doesn't know is that this year's Olympics is the last Olympics that is clearly linked to officials' performance. The central government has begun to promote national sports and fitness, slowly abandoning the backward concept of gold medals.
This is the last good opportunity for leaders to gain political achievements through the Olympic Games.
There is a reason why they think this way, because the International Olympic Committee and FIFA have never dealt with it. Although the latter is only a sport of football, its market value and influence are higher than the former.
In order to give the International Olympic Committee face and avoid making things too rigid, FIFA reluctantly agreed that in addition to players 23 years old and younger, up to three players over the age of 23 could participate in the Olympic Games. Even so, the Olympic football events
It is not recognized by FIFA as an international A-level event.
In other words, the club where the player belongs can completely refuse to listen to the call-up of the national Olympic team of each country and refuse to let its players participate in the Olympic Games.
Take the German Olympic team as an example. Due to the lack of emphasis on Olympic football events, the club has no obligation to release players, resulting in many top young players of the right age being unable to participate. Each club negotiated terms with the German Football Association again and again, and the German Football Association continued to compromise.
As a result, the coach of the German Olympic team, Hrubesch, did not confirm the lineup on the day when the roster was originally scheduled to be announced, so it had to be postponed for one day. In Brazil, the players of the temporarily formed German team trained together for the first time.
Although the Chinese Olympic team also went through difficult negotiations with the Longteng team, China's national conditions dictated that the Longteng team had to compromise, take a step back, and agree to conduct training after the game on July 26.
According to the thinking of the Football Association, at least in early July, the National Olympic team will conduct training. The reason why the Football Association is willing to talk to the Longteng team is also based on their considerations. After all, the main body of the National Olympic team is the Longteng team players, and training in advance is also
Training camp, allowing the Longteng team to play in the league and the FA Cup can still maintain the state, and maybe it will be better.
The Longteng Team is now one of the few domestic football clubs that can attract non-local fans. As a young man from Jiangcheng who has been watching football with his father in recent years, Chen Jiangfeng has naturally become a die-hard fan of the Longteng Team.
Players are treasures to be reckoned with.
It is for this reason that when Chen Jiangfeng saw the roster of the Olympic team, he thought he was dazzled. When he realized what he was doing, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice: "The overseas players have joined the main framework of the World Junior Championships, and the good results are stable."
.”
Chen Jiangfeng's views actually represent the views of many Chinese fans. In this Olympics, the Chinese Olympic team, the German Olympic team, the Mexican Olympic team and the Fiji Olympic team are divided into a group.
Mexico is China's old rival in recent years. Whether it is the World Junior Championship, World Youth Championship or Toulon Cup, China's national teams at all levels are coincidentally placed in the same group with them, or they are their opponents in the knockout rounds, and China's side
Maintaining a winning record.
Being able to defeat the established strong teams in the youth stage for several consecutive years has given fans and the domestic football community great confidence. In their minds, in this Olympic group stage, they won a big victory over the Fiji team and a small victory over their old rivals.
No matter how the match between Mexico and Germany ends, they will be guaranteed to qualify for the group stage. This will be a breakthrough for Chinese football in the Olympics.
On July 27, the Chinese Olympic team successfully arrived in Brazil. Unlike the large Chinese team, the Chinese Olympic team did not go to Rio de Janeiro, but flew directly to Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. On August 5 (Beijing
time (the following times will all be in this time zone), the first round of the Olympic team's game will start here with the Fiji team, and the opening ceremony of this Olympic Games will not be officially held until August 6.
Foreign media also paid a certain amount of attention to this Chinese Olympic team when analyzing the Olympic football. There are as many as five players playing in Europe, and some players have performed well in the Europa League.
Players, coupled with the group of young players who made a splash in the World Junior Championships, although the average age of the Chinese Olympic team players is generally younger, they are considered to be a dark horse in this Olympics.
In the first round of competition, the Chinese Olympic team did perform well.
At the end of the first half, the Chinese Olympic team relied on Zou Weijia's header, Nie Jiang's shot in the penalty area, and Qin Minghao's long shot to make the score 3:0. After the second half, Fiji's physical fitness showed a lot of improvement.
The big problem is that the tall and tall Zou Weijia looks very powerful. He and Nie Jiang completed hat tricks respectively. Together with Qi Ming's stoppage time goal, the Chinese Olympic team beat Fiji 8:0 and got a good start.
This is also the first victory for the Chinese Olympic team in the history of the Olympic Games. Being able to win with this score made the domestic fans and media happy and couldn't close their mouths.
Chen Jiangfeng and his father, who were watching the game in front of the TV, wanted to bang the table and beat the bench in cheers every time they scored a goal. Fortunately, Chen Jiangfeng's mother stopped them.
After the game, Dad Chen began to talk about ancient times: "Watching the Olympic team's game reminded me of the time when the Chinese team played against Southeast Asian teams. At that time, the Chinese team was overwhelming the Southeast Asian teams, no matter you
Is it Thailand or Vietnam, not to mention the Philippines, Malaysia, bang bang bang, just head the ball one by one, and just count the goals one by one. It’s not like the previous two years, when I beat Thailand and got beaten 1:5
, so shameful that even the Pacific Ocean can’t contain it.”
"It definitely won't happen now." Chen Jiangfeng said proudly, "The national team composed of players from the Longteng Team is much better than before."
Just when the Chen family and his son were happy there, at the same time, the Chinese Olympic team also had better news, that is, the game between Mexico and Germany was tied. The German team, which was put together in a hurry, was obviously very cooperative.
They are unfamiliar and make a lot of mistakes. In the next game against the German team, the Chinese team has great hope of scoring points.
Before the game, German Olympic team coach Hrubesch seemed very confident: "I know there are many good players in the Chinese team, but our goal is to win and then advance from the group."
Reiklink cleverly took advantage of the German team's weakness of underestimating its opponents. In the locker room before the game, he encouraged everyone: "We are not here just to experience the joy of playing against opponents like Germany. I brought
The team's goal has always been to win the best trophy - the championship. I also believe that you have this ability. Many of you have experienced the taste of a world championship with me. Do you want to experience it again?"
"I want to!" Not only the players from the World Junior Championships responded resoundingly, but even over-age players like Zhang Linpeng and Zengcheng were inspired to fight.
"Okay." Rick Link also applauded everyone, "Today's opponents, their players are basically young stars from the Bundesliga. They will most likely ignore us. When we go up, we will press them hard and don't give up.
They had a chance to slowly pass the ball. They had a short period of time to adjust and made a lot of mistakes. Once they started to press, our chance came."
In the end, the Chinese Olympic team formed the strongest lineup for this competition. The formation also followed the formation that the Longteng team played most - 3-5-2, with goalkeeper Zengcheng and three central defenders Li Yun, Ma Yongli, and Du Zhenyu.
The wing-backs are Ding Huaiyi, who is strong in offense and weak in defense, and Zhang Linpeng, who is relatively balanced in offense and defense. The midfielders are Qin Minghao, Xu Mingyu and Qi Ming. Up front, Zou Weijia is at the forefront, and Nie Jiang is slightly behind.
After the game started, the Chinese Olympic team's pressing made the German side extremely uncomfortable.
In the seventh minute, Zou Weijia, Nie Jiang and Qin Minghao's three-man frontcourt press snatched the ball from the feet of German Olympic team defender Klostermann. This kind of loss of the ball in the backcourt was extremely
fatal.
Chen Jiangfeng stood up from the sofa excitedly when he saw Zou Weijia steal the ball: "The ball was stolen from the backcourt. The Longteng team stole the ball from the backcourt. What a good opportunity."
Chen Jiangfeng was so excited that he was a bit arrogant. He called the Chinese Olympic team the Dragon Boat Festival. Of course, he was not blamed. Of the three people who forced the ball and stole the ball, two were current Dragon Team players and one was a former Dragon Team player.
The players really rose to the occasion.
Of course, a very important point is that Qin Minghao is very familiar with Kolostermann, a teammate of Red Bull Leipzig. It was Qin Minghao who had been directing the three-man siege this time.
Zou Weijia, who grabbed the ball, knew that he was slow and could not quickly enter the penalty area to form a one-on-one shot, so he decisively passed the ball to Nie Jiang on the left.
Facing Nie Jiang's take of the ball, another central defender of the German team, Süle, rushed over desperately. As a talented central defender trained by Hoffenheim, Süle was actually 1.95 meters tall.
Very fast, his replacement is very timely.
Nie Jiang saw the speed at which Jule was approaching, so he chose the smartest way - to change direction to pass. Nie Jiang, who was 1.86 meters tall, was far more agile than Jule, who was 1.95 meters tall. He changed direction and swayed away.
Jule's center of gravity, the latter had to squeeze Nie Jiang down before he was about to enter the penalty area.
This foul made Rick Linke on the sidelines shout to the referee: "This is a red card, this is a red card foul, my player is going to go it alone!"
Dad Chen, who was watching TV, could still sit firmly before, but now he stood up: "Is it a penalty kick? I should give him a red card!"
"Red dot set meal, red dot set meal!" Chen Jiangfeng shouted happily.
Unfortunately, the Argentine referee Nisco Vidana, who was officiating the game, did not think so. He rushed over and gave Sule a yellow card, and at the same time awarded the Chinese team a free kick in the frontcourt.
"Black whistle! Holy shit!" The Chen family's father and son shouted in unison.
However, it can be seen from the slow motion of the replay that Nie Jiang did fall outside the penalty area, and the penalty kick was definitely gone, but this yellow card is worthy of discussion. Although Nie Jiang was attacking from the side of the penalty area, after all, it was
It was almost a one-on-one shot, and only a yellow card was given because the referee did not want to send off the German team players early. He was merciful.
At the same time, it can be seen from this confrontation that Jule, who was born in 1995, is indeed much stronger physically than Nie Jiang, who was born in 1998. After he was shaken away, Nie Jiang was unable to hold on due to the physical squeeze.
, Otherwise, Nie Jiang would be able to rush into the penalty area and form a single attack.
Zhang Sheng, who was watching the game in front of the TV, also felt that Nie Jiang still needed to improve physically. At the same time, he was glad that he was not allowed to go to Europe directly to play football. Otherwise, if he went to Europe rashly, he would have to face the common physical problems.
If the guards from the five major leagues, who are all extremely strong, can barely do it, Nie Jiang will suffer a lot.
On the other hand, Nie Jiang's technical ability with his feet and his mind at critical moments are really good. He got a perfectly positioned free kick for the Chinese Olympic team. It depends on whether the boys of the Olympic team can grasp it.
