Hero of the Penalty Area

Chapter 15 Everyone has different minds (third update, ask for a monthly pass!)

Liverpool arrived in Changsha in the early hours of the morning. They received a very warm welcome at Changsha Airport, but the tired Liverpool players quickly got on the bus and went to the hotel to rest.

The media in Guangzhou was still full of Liverpool's caution the next day. The wonderful game yesterday was the focus of discussion on the streets. In particular, Chen Yingxiong turned around and volleyed during the game.

However, the reaction from Guangzhou has nothing to do with Chen Yingxiong.

He is so looking forward to the match with the Chinese national team.

※※※

Because I arrived in Changsha late, Dalglish allowed everyone to sleep in late and wake up until noon.

When Chen Yingxiong and their opponents were still asleep, Zhong Chusheng, the full-time vice chairman of the Chinese Football Association, arrived in Changsha by plane. With him are several directors of the Football Association's office, as well as the upcoming head coach of the national team Camacho.

When they came to Changsha, they naturally attracted the attention of reporters. They were blocked by reporters at the airport and wanted to interview them.

The topic is naturally inseparable from Chen Yingxiong and the national team...

"Chairman Zhong, is there any conclusion or progress when the hero joins the national team?"

"Excuse me, Chairman Zhong, did you watch the match between Liverpool and Evergrande last night? What is your comment on Chen Yingxiong's performance?"

When Zhong Chusheng heard the name "Chen Yingxiong", he got a headache. However, in front of the reporters, he could not be too obvious-the internal decision of the Football Association must not be told to the outside world, otherwise it will cause an uproar...

"Ah, I happened to have something yesterday, so I didn't see the game. Did Evergrande win?"

"Of course not, but he lost a goal." The reporter replied, as if he was afraid that Zhong Chusheng would not know the performance of Chen Yingxiong. He added: "The hero scored a very popular goal in the game!"

"Oh, haha... Let one give way to another..." Zhong Chusheng squeezed a smile on his face and squeezed it out, thus changing the subject.

But how can the reporters let him off easily: "Chen Yingxiong performed so well, what does the Football Association think?"

"Ah, um, his performance is very good. This is a good thing. It shows that we Chinese can also occupy a place in football, the world's number one sport... I am proud and proud of him, and I hope he will continue to work hard. ..."

This kind of official accent reporters can hear the cocoon in their ears, and of course they will not be so confused by him. Everyone asked straightforwardly: "Will the Chinese national team recruit Chen Yingxiong? After passing the Laos level, it will soon be the top 20..."

"This... depends on the head coach..." Of course, it is impossible for Zhong Chusheng to say that our Football Association has studied internally, and has decided not to recruit Chen Yingxiong to participate in the top 20 matches! He kicked the football to Camacho and then slipped away by himself.

As for Camacho's answer, he didn't care. Even if Camacho really wants to recruit people, it depends on whether we can agree or not...

Camacho was also surrounded by reporters. In addition to the Chinese national team, the topic was also related to Chen Yingxiong.

"He is a very good player, top in Europe. Liverpool made a good deal, 70 million pounds is not expensive for him... The Chinese team? Now I am not the head coach of the national team. "

The Spaniards are also cunning enough, although no one in the Football Association told him the contradiction between them and Chen Yingxiong, but by guessing, Camacho has already guessed something. He decided not to go to this muddy water for the time being, and watch the changes first before talking...

So he kicked the football to Gao Hongbo's side.

It is of course impossible for reporters to ask Gao Hongbo, because Gao Hongbo will leave after leading the team to play against Laos.

At this time, many people still have difficulty understanding why the Football Association chose to change coaches at such a critical moment. Don't they know that changing coaches in battle has been a tactical taboo since ancient times? Even if Camacho's ability is really much better than Gao Hongbo, Gao Hongbo can't lead the team to the Brazil World Cup finals by his own ability, it should be changed sooner. There is still a month left before the top 20 matches. After the coaching change, what can Camacho have to get acquainted with the players and make them accept his football philosophy and tactics? He has to use the tactics and lineup left by Gao Hongbo. That being the case, wouldn't Gao Hongbo, who is more familiar with his lineup and football tactics, be more appropriate than Camacho?

What is the purpose of tossing and tossing so much? By the time the top 20 matches, Gao Hongbo, who is most familiar with the team, is gone, and a foreign coach who has a black eye on Chinese football is here. If the Chinese team can reach the top ten all the way, or even qualify, That is really a miracle.

So no reporter went to ask Gao Hongbo. They shook their heads after watching the football association leave with Camacho.

"Sometimes it's really hard for me to understand what those people's minds are thinking all day long..."

"I'm afraid it's all **** inside—right!"

"Chinese football makes these incomprehensible people mess around. If I were to change, maybe I would have rushed out of Asia to the world!"

"Hey, just blow it! Haha!"

A group of reporters grumbled helplessly, and then dispersed.

Even if they stir up the topic no matter how hot they are, it is not them who make the final decision. This thing is really helpless. These reporters who have been in contact with Chinese football all day, sometimes really feel discouraged, because what they know makes them feel that, at least for a long time, Chinese football is probably I'm all hopeless...

※※※

The players of the national team train on the court, and the day after tomorrow they will play against Liverpool here.

Gao Hongbo watched quietly with his arms around his chest on the sidelines, without yelling, reminding the players what to do. He has been with this team for two years, and he knows this team very well. Why doesn't this team know him very well? So sometimes he doesn't need to do everything personally during training.

The problem is that this is not the reason for his silence.

As the head coach of the national team, the national team he led has played many warm-up matches, friendly matches and so on. In the warm-up matches, the Chinese team's results are always good, so that he has won the title of "King of warm-up matches" .

But in the official competition, the team's performance will inevitably be unsatisfactory. Especially at the Asian Cup at the beginning of the year, this may be the reason why he was replaced by Camacho... In the Asian Cup, the Chinese team was not able to get a shot, and they did not qualify in the group stage.

Since the Asian Cup, he actually knew that his time in the Chinese team is running out.

But what can be done?

If he has Chen Yingxiong during the Asian Cup, let alone qualifying for the group, he will be confident to get back the championship. Although he will have to have a tactical style with his feet, football is mainly on the ground, but this does not mean that his team will not pass from the side. He believes that the problem with the Chinese team is the lack of a strong scoring arrow at the forward line.

Yes, the Chinese team lacks a center who can score.

If these words made the Chinese fans heard ten years ago, they would really laugh out of their teeth-the Chinese team, which has the best forward group in Asia, would be missing a center!

But this is the fact. I think that Chinese football had such outstanding forwards as Su Maozhen, Li Bing, Hao Haidong, Gao Feng, Li Jinyu, and Gao Hongbo himself. Su Maozhen and Li Bing are even more powerful centers ranked in Asia. Such a striker makes neighbouring countries envious.

At that time, the advantage of the *** lies in the excellent midfield, the most troublesome is the lack of strikers who can score.

What's the result now? ***There is no shortage of forwards, but the Chinese team cannot find a stable source of scoring. Whether it is Han Peng, or Chen Guofeng, or that Yang Xu, or Qu Bo, their scoring ability is actually not very good-especially in the national team game, the number of goals is pitiful. The current midfielder of the Chinese team has improved greatly under the guidance of Gao Hongbo, able to make a lot of excellent cooperation, and can also deliver shells to the front line, but the forwards have begun to learn to waste opportunities, which makes people really speechless...

Let's look at the growth of Chen Yingxiong over the past few years. At first, he was a player who knew nothing but headers. What about now? The header is still sharp, long shots are the signature, and there is also a set of points in front of the goal. Such a center in the Chinese team has a midfielder who constantly delivers shells to him, so he can't score a goal?

He privately asked the Football Association about Chen Yingxiong's entry into the national team. The Football Association gritted its teeth and did not let go. Of course, he knew that this was because the Football Association thought Chen Yingxiong was disobedient and difficult to manage, so he was unwilling to recruit into the national team.

But do they care about the performance of the national team? The Asian Cup performance is not good, the responsibility lies with me as the coach, but I don't want to think about what your football association has done.

To be honest, Gao Hongbo just squeezed Camacho down like this, he was quite wronged.

Now this game is his last warm-up match for the Chinese team. Can the Chinese team, which has always performed well in the warm-up match, draw a perfect end to its warm-up journey?

Gao Hongbo didn't know.

He only knows that the top 20 match is a very sad hurdle for the Chinese team.

Is Camacho capable of leading the Chinese team to rush out?

I worked hard for more than two years, and finally it was to make wedding dresses for others. To say that there is no emotion, it is deceiving.

But it seems too much to curse that the top 20 of the Chinese team can't make it through...

He only hopes that the Chinese Football Association can repair the relationship with Chen Yingxiong and recruit Chen Yingxiong to the team before the top 20 matches, so that even if Camacho, who doesn’t know much about the team, leads the team, as long as he has Chen Yingxiong. , It’s okay to break into the top ten.

He did not have any resistance to this warm-up match. Because he thinks this may be a key step for the Chinese Football Association and Chen Yingxiong to restore the relationship. Otherwise, why did he suddenly jump in a game when there was no warm-up match schedule at all? And it's still Liverpool with Hero Chen?

There are things Gao Hongbo doesn't know, so he can only guess like this.

If Chen Yingxiong can successfully enter the Chinese team, this warm-up match will be meaningful.

If Gao Hongbo knew that Chen Yingxiong and the Football Association had fallen out again... I'm afraid he would vomit blood, right?
