Chapter 316: First Battle at Wuli River(1/2)

If you speak to the bureau, you will have to face no matter how difficult the situation is.

Anyway, Bamboo Shoes took this matter seriously.

In the past few days, not only has a "seven-year plan" been introduced, but winning the Olympic championship has also been written into the goal charter.

It is of course a good thing to have ideals.

But if the ideal is too far away, it will give people a feeling of emptiness.

Just like the Great Leap J back then.

Xu and Wang seriously asked Zeng Zheng to come up with a plan.

But Zeng Zheng said that his contract will run until 2002.

Let’s talk about everything after the World Cup next year.

With the Confederations Cup and World Youth Championship over, the players have returned to their respective teams.

The overseas players go to the club's training camps and friendly matches, while the domestic players play in A and B as normal.

During this period, the national team trained twice, and Zeng Zheng also gave two very different lists.

Zeng Zhengyao considered many factors such as status, injuries, age, position, tactical needs, tacit understanding, formation adaptability, etc.

But the fans also saw it.

Even for next year's World Cup, the selection will be almost identical from these 40 people.

The first training camp included three games, two practice matches and a friendly match.

The second team of Liaoning Football Team and the second team of Shenyang Football Team both lost more than 10 goals to the national team.

As for the Spanish national team, which was invited to the Northeast, they played a 2-1 match with the national football team in Wulihe.

With the headers of Zhang Yuheng and Xiao Wang Tao, the Matador did not benefit from Wulihe either.

Time has entered August.

Players studying abroad are basically starting to prepare for the new season.

Those players who are seeking transfer hope to finalize the transfer matter as soon as possible because of the World Cup qualifying tournament.

In order to make up for the gap left by Zidane's departure, Juventus spent 20 million pounds from Benfica to buy Zhang Xiaorui, who was about to wear the captain's armband.

Li Jinyu transferred to Roma for 18.5 million pounds after his transfer to Juventus failed.

This price is exactly the amount for which Roma sold Hidetoshi Nakata.

Lee Tie remains in Sevilla and is ready to help Sevilla gain a foothold in La Liga in the new season.

In order to retain this hard-working Asian engineering player, Sevilla even re-signed a five-year contract with Li Tie, and the annual salary is much higher than the average annual salary in La Liga.

Like Li Tie, Sun Jihai not only secured his right back position at Manchester City, but also received a new four-year contract.

General Fan finally chose to join Liverpool in the Premier League under Zeng Zheng's persuasion.

Because the Chinese team won the Confederations Cup, Liverpool also made a compromise.

Not only did he give General Fan the third-highest salary in the army, but he also generously agreed that he could return to China at any time to participate in the World Cup preliminaries, World Cup and other competitions.

As for Zhang Xinhua, although Grimsby wanted to sign him, Zhang Xinhua finally chose to play here on loan for a year after taking into account the World Cup preliminaries and various factors.

If he is still in good form after one year, then a move to the Premier League to play football is not out of the question.

In the Bundesliga, Yang Chen moved to Wolfsburg and has already scored his first goal for Wolfsburg in a friendly match.

Xie Hui also transferred to Mainz for a worth of US$5 million.

Together with Shao Jiayi, who plays for Borussia Monchengladbach, Chinese fans affectionately call these three the "Three Musketeers of the Bundesliga".

As for Benfica, since Qu Bo shined in the World Youth Championship, Qu Bo has taken over Zhang Xiaorui's "inheritance" and put on the jersey of his predecessor.

Zheng Zhi became the main player at PSV Eindhoven before Sun Xiang, and became teammates with Batman Kežman, Peter Pan Robben and others.

After Zhang Ran returned to Internacional Brasil, he also received the important task of head coach.

As for Monaco's Li Yi, he has gradually integrated into the team and become a substitute between No. 1 and No. 2.

As for Zeng Zheng's favorite general Li Weifeng, this guy is a bit rough.

Teams in the five major leagues extended invitations to him, but in the end, due to reasons such as money, position, or having already found a replacement, the offer fell through.

In the end, Zeng Zheng simply threw Li Weifeng to Nottingham Forest and asked him to go to League One to experience first.

If he can help the team return to the Premier League, he will be a big contributor.

After Gao Ming and Eric Mu had a trial training with Boca, Gao Ming finally gave up Boca's invitation due to family reasons.

Eric Mu, on the other hand, is a bachelor.

Even if the salary is not high, I still want to stay in Boca.

Finally, after ten days of trial training, Gao Ming took a plane back to China, while Eric Mu stayed in Argentina.

In addition to the above-mentioned players, others such as Su Maozhen, Xiao Wang Tao, Qi Hong, Shen Si, Wu Chengying, etc. have also received invitations from foreign clubs.

Due to various reasons, I did not succeed in studying abroad.

Among them, Zhao Junzhe of Liaozu is undoubtedly the most distinctive.

After rejecting an invitation from a wealthy club like Manchester United, Zhao Junzhe directly stated in the public media that he would never transfer unless he helped Liaoning Football Club win the championship!

Such bold words also earned Xiao Zhao a group of fans.

Just like he said.

Some people like Ronaldo, others like Bergomi.

...

The second training session of the national team is to participate in the Four Nations Invitational Tournament in Shanghai.

For this national team, all the players recruited by Zeng Zheng are players who play domestically.

Among them are three young players who have just finished playing in the World Youth Championship.

With the outstanding performance of this "local national team", the team first defeated North Korea 6-2, and then defeated Trinidad and Tobago 5-0, winning the championship of this four-nation invitational tournament.

After participating in the Four Nations Invitational Tournament, the team disbanded.

Two days later, Zeng Zheng announced the roster for the first match against Thailand in the top ten.

In just three days, Sun Jihai, Li Weifeng, General Fan, Li Jinyu, Zhang Xiaorui, Li Tie, Yang Chen, and Xie Hui all returned home.

On August 14, all members of the national football team gathered together.

The list of players participating in the first Top Ten Tournament is:

Goalkeeper: Ou Chuliang, Fu Bin, Li Leilei

Defender: Sun Jihai, General Fan, Li Weifeng, Wu Chengying, Du Wei, Xu Yunlong, Yang Pu;

Midfielder: Zhang Xiaorui, Li Tie, Li Jinyu, Qi Hong, Shen Si, Zhao Junzhe, Li Xiaopeng, Ma Mingyu;

Forward: Yu Genwei, Yang Chen, Xie Hui, Su Maozhen, Zhang Yuheng.

The next day, the national football team used two lineups to play a 60-minute teaching match with the Shenyang Jinde Youth Team and the Youth Team at the Wulihe Stadium in Shenyang, attracting many fans to watch.

A teaching match of this scale is mainly to observe the current status and physical functions of the team members.

Shen Xiangfu directed the players to move around on the sidelines, while Li Huajun took notes next to Zeng Zheng.

Zeng Zheng sat under a sun umbrella and watched from a distance.

The World Cup preliminaries are approaching, and it is inevitable that the players on the team will be a little angry.

In this case, there is no need for Zeng Zheng to come forward at all.

Anyone who dares to prick him or her can be directly asked to reprimand Jin and Chi, and each of them should write a 10,000-word self-criticism and hand it over to Shen Xiangfu.

The competition is approaching, and even General Fan is becoming impatient.

In the afternoon, during the intra-team competition, Yang Chen scored a hat trick.

This state made Yang Chen himself and Zeng Zheng very happy.

It would be great if they could score three goals against Thailand in a few days - that's what both of them thought.

In the evening, after everyone had dinner, Zeng Zheng gathered everyone together to analyze tomorrow's opponents for the players.

"Thailand plays 3-5-2, with plenty of space on both sides, and the midfield and backcourt are not aggressive in pressing. We can play more on both sides..."

"As for the strength of the Thai team, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"They think they are on the same level as us, but we don't have to look at them that way."

"This is our home court, so everyone plays with confidence."

"In terms of technology, tactics and momentum, we strive to overwhelm our opponents in all aspects..."

Zeng Zheng chatted for a long time, and finally briefly announced the 14-man core lineup.

After hearing their names, the team members all nodded.

We all have been working together for two and a half years, and there is still a tacit understanding.

Everyone knows who is better and who is the substitute.

After giving a brief explanation to the team members, Zeng Zheng announced the disbandment.

At the same time, the coaching staff also held a small internal meeting together.

"Coach Zeng, isn't it a bit risky to do this..."

At the beginning of the meeting, Jin Zhiyang expressed his concerns.

Chi Shangbin also nodded repeatedly.

"It's a bit risky."

Zeng Zheng did not deny Jin Zhiyang's doubts, but then threw the question to the other party.
To be continued...
