Chapter 198 Double Happiness
With the whistle of the referee, the game ended, and the Spanish players cheered—they did not expect that the game would be so difficult to win. If it weren't for Bojan's wonderful performance, if it weren't for Degas's brave save, the outcome of this game is still unknown.

But now they can breathe a sigh of relief. After two consecutive victories, they have secured the top two positions. As long as they can draw with Argentina in the final round, they will be able to qualify as No.1.

Although the Chinese team lost the game, they won applause from the audience. At the same time, for them, as long as they beat Honduras at the bottom of the group in the final round, they can also qualify as No.3 in the group with four points.

"Okay, let's go back!" Ding Yu walked into the field, pulled the players up from the ground one by one, and patted them on the shoulder one by one: "We have tried our best, and we have done a good job. There is nothing we can do if we lose. We have another game in three days, and that game is the one that will determine whether our team can appear... Boys, I am proud of your performance!"

The players stood up silently. As Ding Yu said, they performed very well in this game, and even pushed Spain to a dead end to a certain extent—but they still lost the game in the end, so losing the game made them feel even more uncomfortable—because they have played their best, but still lost, which means that there is still a huge gap between them and world-class players of the same age.

The players went to the locker room and left the celebrating Spanish players on the court. Ding Yu shook hands with Santi Stewan after seeing all the players leave.

The atmosphere of silence lasted until the players boarded the bus. Today, the normally bustling bus was silent, and even the people who liked to joke the most kept their mouths shut.

"Okay, little ones, I know what you're thinking."

Ding Yu, who was sitting at the front, turned his head to look at the players, and laughed: "We lost the game, and we lost to this opponent even though we played very well. Does this result make you feel desperate? Actually, you don't need to be so depressed at all...Because you are only 17 years old, and you still have great potential for development...After the World Junior Championships, there will be World Youth Championships, the Olympics, and the World Cup! This competition is just an opportunity for us to practice! As long as we show our ability, even if we lose the game, what regrets do we have? What's more, we still have to continue the competition. In the competition between Chu and Han, Liu Bang lost 90.00% of the games, but they were the winners in the end! Even in the world of football, it is not uncommon to lose first and then win! In the World Cup in 54, the West German team was defeated by Hungary [-]-[-] in the group stage! But in the final, they defeated the flourishing Hungary [-]-[-]! You still have a future! This loss is just one It’s just a small setback! But if you bring this low mood to the next game, then you have lost this time. If we fail to beat Honduras in the last round, or lose the game altogether, then we will be the laughing stock of everyone! Do you want to do this? The first two games were extremely tenacious, but the last game was disgracefully out... This is shameful!”

"I don't want to!" The players, who were already suffocating and about to explode, immediately waved their fists and shouted. Ding Yu hit the iron while the iron was hot: "Then let go of this game, the game is over, don't need to think about it, what to think about is the next game! The next game, let us win Honduras happily and continue to go on in the World Junior Championship! We've reached the top!"

************************************
Ding Yu is very aware of the thoughts of the players of the national youth team, so he can quickly revive the team's low momentum-and on the night of the game, he received a call from the director of the Youth Sports Department of the Chinese Football Association. After the call praised the Chinese national youth team for these two games. What hard targets are set, but in their hearts, at least qualifying in the group is their psychological bottom line.

Ding Yu patted his chest on the phone: "I can't guarantee that I can win this game, but I can guarantee that I will win the game that should be won!"

The director hung up the phone very satisfied, and Ding Yu was a little sad after hanging up the phone. On the surface, the Chinese team had a draw against Argentina and only lost one goal against Spain. It should have a good chance of winning against Honduras, which conceded eight goals in two games. But Ding Yu knew that in football games, it is impossible to simply calculate the outcome like this—otherwise the game would not be played.

Judging from the previous two games, Honduras’ offensive ability is not weak, because Argentina and Spain’s overall ability is quite strong. In addition to offense, their defense is not weak. Honduras was able to score three goals against them. The attack power is pretty good, but their defense is not very good. They conceded eight goals in two games and were almost sieved.

Moreover, Honduras has not produced any particularly outstanding talents in recent years, at least an outstanding striker like Suazo can't just appear in Honduras.

In the end, Ding Yu decided to play offensive football in the final round of the group stage. Since the opponent's defense is relatively weak, it is natural to exert strong pressure on the opponent's defense. Long Bisheng's height and impact are a huge pressure for any team. The defenders of Honduras will definitely focus on this center forward who performed well in the first two games, so Fan Pengfei, Dai Guangming and others will get more opportunities.

************************************
Ding Yu is confident that he can win this game, but what he did not expect is that the Chinese team, which has passed the test of Argentina and Spain, won so easily in the last round of the group stage.

After the start of the game, the Chinese team launched a fierce attack on the goal of Honduras. After the last game, Dai Guangming performed exceptionally well in this game. In addition to organizing the offense of the entire team in an orderly manner, he also received a header from Long Bisheng 6 minutes into the first half.

Although Dai Guangming performed very eye-catchingly, he was not the one who performed the best in the Chinese team. The best player of the game was finally awarded to Long Bisheng. After assisting Dai Guangming, he scored twice with an overhead kick in 10 minutes of the first half. .

In the second half, Honduras pulled back a point, but before the end of the game, Hu Gandang intercepted the opponent’s defender’s flustered clearance ball from outside the penalty area, and then scored again with a strong shot. China won a 3-[-] victory.

"Damn it, Aaron, did you take your medicine today? Why are you so fierce? Be careful that the competition organizing committee arrests you for a urine test." After the game, the surroundings asked Long Bisheng curiously. Today, Long Bisheng's performance was really outstanding. Originally, he was not the center of the offense in this game, but he scored two beautiful goals, which made everyone around and others very curious.

"Hehe, it's nothing. If you're in a good mood, it's fine to play naturally." Long Bisheng smiled without explaining.

"In a good mood?" The surroundings looked at him suspiciously, and then sized him up with subtle eyes: "Could it be that you did something unreasonable to Ning Xi? Otherwise, how could you be in such a good mood?"

"You're the one who does things that hurt nature and reason, don't think of me as dirty like you?" Long Bisheng retorted.

"Actually, he has decided where he will go next season. Didn't you see that he has been a little distracted a few days ago." Li Jie, who lives in the same room as Long Bisheng, told the truth with a smile: "The club and Naples have reached an agreement. Aaron will continue to loan to Naples for a season next season. Aaron is a bull, and his annual salary is 20 euros, which is more than our brothers."

Indeed, Ning Xi's two-day trip from Italy to China finally came to fruition. Yunjia Tianyu and Naples reached an agreement to continue renting Long Bisheng for another season. The rental fee was 30 euros and the annual salary was 20 euros.

"Damn it, Aaron, you got rich." Wu Bufan said a little enviously: "Next season, you will be the first player among us to play in the top league, and your income will be the highest among us...Double happiness, treat, you must treat tonight."

"Okay then, let me treat you to Korean kimchi..." Long Bisheng said generously.

"Shhh..." There were boos everywhere, and everyone around shouted: "No, there is nothing good to eat in Korea, come back to BJ and invite us!"
