Seven, eight, nine, you hate dogs. Chang Cheng and others deeply understood and experienced this saying. Although some children were already eleven or twelve years old, there were not many people on the train, and most of the people in this car were from the football team.

The team members and the little ones were even more unscrupulous and crazy. If parents weren't watching, the train would have been overturned.

In the evening, after the hustle and bustle all the way, Chang Cheng checked into the hotel dizzy. He returned to the room and washed his face with cold water, finally feeling calm. Then he began to study the schedule of this competition.

In fact, there is nothing to study. There are only eight teams in total, and two local teams from Shandong participated. The eight teams are divided into two groups. After the group stage, the top two teams cross over to compete in the knockout round, and the winner advances to the championship and runner-up finals.

Group A: Jiangcheng Moral Education Primary School, Weifang Experimental Primary School, Xinjiang Nationalities Primary School, Liaoning Xunwang Primary School.

Group B Guangzhou Tianhe Primary School, Weifang Shengli Street Primary School, Dalian Northeast Primary School, Shanghai Jianshe Primary School.

"Except for Xunwang Primary School and Northeast Primary School, these primary schools have never heard of it. Let alone how to formulate tactics." Xiao Zhi complained while looking at the schedule.

"Let me take the lead. I believe in my players." Chang Cheng put down the schedule in his hand, "There is nothing to study anymore. Take the time to rest. There is still one day tomorrow to get used to the venue."

Chang Cheng and Xiao Zhi were about to go to bed when they suddenly heard a commotion outside the door. They opened the door, stood at the door and looked out.

There is a group of children in the corridor who don't know where they came from. They have dark faces, rough skin, but a pair of eyes with a lively light. The clothes on their bodies are very old, but very clean. Everyone is carrying an old schoolbag, and the leader

A middle-aged man was dragging a big old suitcase in his hand. The children lined up neatly and followed the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man walked to the door of a room and took out a stack of door cards from his hand.

Zhang watched carefully, and finally took out one and put it on the door lock. With a beep, the door opened. The middle-aged man called the names of the four children, and the four children entered the room one after another. The middle-aged man took the children again.

Go to the next room.

"They should be from Xinjiang National Primary School. It seems that their conditions are not good. They probably just came to see the world." Xiao Zhi returned to the room.

"Don't underestimate them. Poor children have long been in charge." Chang Cheng closed the door: "Didn't you see that they are led by a teacher? There is not even a parent. It proves that this team has strong discipline."

"I'm not looking down upon it. I always feel that Xinjiang has never produced any players."

"It's impossible to say that in ten years' time, Xinjiang will be the hope of the national football team."

The next day, Huang Jing and Xiao Zhi led the team to adapt to the venue, while Chang Cheng and Fu Bin went to see other participating teams to see if they could learn more.

After going around in a circle, I saw that the technical abilities of the members of each team were pretty good, but as for their playing style, I found nothing. Only the players from the Xinjiang Nationalities Primary School practiced some passing and cutting coordination, and they could probably tell what this team was like.

Mainly focus on the routine of passing from the two wings.

"The people from Xinjiang are more sincere. Other teams are hiding them, but they practice how they want." Fu Bin looked at the goalkeeper of the National Primary School.

"Don't talk about others, we are hiding it ourselves." Chang Cheng patted Fu Bin on the shoulder: "Let's go back."

On this day, they only trained for an hour in the morning, and then the children were free to move around under the guidance of their parents. Chang Cheng required that they must return to the team at 6 pm and rest early to prepare for tomorrow's game.

On August 3, 2005, at 8 o'clock in the morning, the Young Eagle Cup officially kicked off. At the opening ceremony, the new coach of the National Football Team even wished the Young Eagle Cup a complete success via video.

The first game of the competition was Group A's Moral Education Primary School versus Weifang Experimental Primary School.

This game is an encounter for both sides. Chang Cheng adopts a 451 formation. Goalkeeper No. 1 Feng Yaxin, after all, has better cooperation with center backs No. 5 Liao Chen and No. 3 Wei Tao. Left back No. 6 Wang Shuang, Right back No. 2 Zheng Zihan, the two defensive midfielders are No. 8 Colin and No. 14 Zhang Jie, left midfielder No. 11 Zhang Chengyu, right midfielder No. 17 Qu Bo, attacking midfielder No. 10 Jiang Yuntao, and forward No. 9 Wang Fei.

The opponent Experimental Primary School started with a regular 442 in a parallel position. At the beginning of the game, the coaches hoped to test the opponent. But the children had different ideas. They either attacked or defended and counterattacked. After all, they wanted to score a goal for the opponent and test it. A ball.

The two sides tried two back and forths, and Deyu Primary School started to attack on its own initiative. It was initiated by Ke Lin, and after two passes with Jiang Yuntao, it was transferred directly to Zhang Chengyu on the left. Zhang Chengyu dribbled the ball directly into the penalty area, and the opponent's The right back came up, Zhang Chengyu continued to cut inside and led to the middle, and the right back followed closely. Zhang Chengyu suddenly used the outside instep of his left foot to pass the ball to the left wing. Wang Shuang had already quickly stepped in and passed the ball directly. He flew forward and attacked the goal. The goalkeeper didn't react at all and instinctively blocked the goal. Bang, the ball hit the goalkeeper's chest and bounced to the ground. The center back kicked out of the boundary.

Wang Shuang threw a sideline ball. Jiang Yuntao moved to the side to catch the ball. He was forced out by his opponent and could not turn around. He immediately passed it back to Colin. Colin passed directly to Zhang Jie. Zhang Jie immediately passed it directly to Qu Bo on the right. Qu Bo He accelerated and ran forward, and before the opponent came forward, he handed it to Wang Fei who was retreating to catch the ball, and then directly inserted into the penalty area. Wang Fei did not stop the ball, directly knocked it with his back heel, and passed through the defense line. Qu Bo directly faced him. The goalkeeper was not offside. The opponent's goalkeeper hurriedly attacked, but Qu Bo didn't take any advantage and passed the ball to the other side. Zhang Chengyu was already waiting there and easily sent the ball into the empty goal.

The continuous attacks broke the balance on the court. The experimental primary school woke up from a dream and immediately responded with a full-court press. The court was in chaos for a while.

The coach of the Experimental Primary School kept shouting at his players, and the court gradually stabilized.

The Experimental Primary School started to strengthen their offense according to the coach's instructions, but they found that their players always seemed to be a little slower. Whether they were passing and receiving the ball, or fighting for the first point, or the second point, they were slower than their opponents. Especially with the moral education primary school players Compared with the old team members, they seem to be slower.

As long as Liao Chen, or Colin, or Zhang Jie intercepted the ball, it would immediately be a counterattack, causing chaos in the opponent's defense. If their goalkeeper and central defender hadn't performed well, and Deyu Primary School was unlucky, they would have conceded the ball again. .

The score was 1-0 in the first half. During the intermission, Chang Cheng replaced the exhausted Jiang Yuntao and Zhang Chengyu with No. 18 Zhang Rui and No. 21 Gaofeng, and the formation also changed to 442. After all, Jiang Yuntao and Zhang Chengyu are small players. He is two years old and has only finished fourth grade. It is good to be able to last through the first half in such a fierce game against an opponent who will soon be in the first grade of junior high school. Wang Fei is on the front line and does not run that much, so he can still persist in.

At the beginning of the second half, although the new players were not one and a half beats faster than their opponents, they still used their bodies and speed to put strong pressure on their opponents. Even if the experimental primary school could attack with the ball, it would usually be Ke Lin and Zhang Jie's.

The territory was blocked because they were always faster than their opponents.

With ten minutes left in the game, Chang Cheng replaced No. 9 Wang Fei with No. 15 Yang Zhi and asked Zhang Rui to play as a lone forward. Zhang Rui used his skills to repeatedly break through the opponent's defense and scored a goal in the last two minutes.

Qiu. Moral Education Primary School finally defeated its opponent 2-1 and got off to a good start.

The second game was between Xinjiang National Primary School and Liaoning Xunwang Primary School.

Xunwang Primary School is a famous football primary school and has produced many international players. It is stronger than some professional U13 players. It can be said that they are a professional team in their own right. The total number of team members is as high as 26, which is as good as Adinaike. And they

The team has a head coach, assistant coach, physical coach, and goalkeeper coach, and they are well matched.

Looking at the Xinjiang National Primary School, there are only two teachers leading the team, and one is a Chinese teacher. There are only fifteen team members in total, and some children still wear a pair of canvas football shoes with exposed toes.

"It looks like this is a massacre, the gap is too big."

"I hope Xunwang Primary School will keep it under control."

"Yeah yeah."

"..."

The spectators nearby were talking a lot, and no one was optimistic about this team from Xinjiang.

The team members from the Moral Education Primary School packed up their things and vacated the bench for the ethnic minority primary school who entered the field. The two teams passed by each other, and suddenly Colin stopped, turned around and called out to a child from Xinjiang.

"How are you kicking these shoes? Your thumbs are exposed." After saying that, he compared his own feet with the Xinjiang child's feet. Then he took off his football shoes and handed them to the child: "Our feet are almost the same.

Let me lend you some clothes first." The child hurriedly declined: "No, this is too expensive."

"It's okay. Just play well." After saying that, he forced the shoes to him. "I'll watch the football from the sidelines. Just give it back to me after playing." After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the crowd.

With Colin taking the lead, the team members helped the children from the Minzu Primary School to change out of their worn-out shoes and put on shin guards. Feng Yaxin also lent a pair of gloves to the goalkeeper. In the blink of an eye, the Minzu Primary School put on new equipment. Two belts

The team teacher’s eyes filled with tears. He couldn’t stop thanking the team members.

At the beginning of the game, the players from the Nationalities Primary School, who put on the sneakers of the players from the Moral Education Primary School, withstood the fierce attack of the Xunwang Primary School and were able to wait for opportunities to counterattack. They did not lose out on the scene.

Xunwang Primary School did not expect Minzu Primary School to be so tenacious, and its basic skills were no worse than them. The counterattack was impressive. Triangular short passes, bottom passes, and various tactical combinations were used one after another. The game fell into a stalemate.

"Colin, how did you come up with the idea of ​​lending them the shoes?" Colin's father hugged Colin and asked.

"I see that their shoes are all worn out. If you play with them, you will be easily stepped on. My shoes are also from Adidas. At least they can provide a buffer." Colin said seriously.
