Chapter 174【】Those things about the European Cup

After going to the Vicenza Jewelry Fair, Xiao Mian and Liu Ruyan went to Switzerland, because the [-] European Cup has already started on June [-]th.

Because Xiao Mian is Chinese, it is normal for him to miss the European Cup.During this period of time, the Chinese national team is not without games, but also some warm-up matches, as well as the [-] World Cup qualifiers.The preliminaries of the World Cup are very important, but the Chinese Football Association still did not recruit Xiao Mian, the Italian silver boot and best rookie, to return to the team.

Now the country has fallen out, and the media and fans are calling on the Chinese Football Association to call Xiao Mian back to the national team.But the head coach of the Chinese men's national football team, Dujkovic, and the executive coach, Folado, did not comment on the matter.Instead, Xie Yalong, chairman of the Chinese Football Association, Nan Yong, vice chairman, and others came forward to answer questions from reporters and fans.

They thought that Xiao Mian was too young, inexperienced, and had never seen the big world. They were afraid that Xiao Mian, a boy who was not yet [-] years old, would be so frightened that his feet would limp on the stage of the world qualifiers.Moreover, Xiao Mian has never played any games in China, and he is not familiar with the Chinese men's football team, and other players from other countries do not have a tacit understanding, so returning will not be able to help the team.They also firmly believed that if Xiao Mian came back, he would definitely be better than the team's decent forwards Han Peng and Gao Lin.

This can make the Chinese media and fans dumbfounded. The silver boots of the Italian Football League are not as good as the forwards who can't get the league's top scorer in the Chinese Super League?This is too fake, this rhetoric obviously cannot satisfy the fans and the media.Some fans even put up banners and took to the streets to parade, hoping that the national team would recruit Xiao Mian into the national team.

However, Wei Shaohui, the leader of the national team, and the two giants of the Football Association did not take this to heart.They were firmly opposed to recruiting Xiao Mian into the team.

Since it is not enough to enter the national team, it is okay to enter the Olympic team.Xiao Mian's age is an Olympic-age player. On the front line, fans and the media believe that Xiao Mian is definitely more suitable than Han Peng, and Xiao Mian is still a player of the right age.If Xiao Mian joins, the Olympic team may really win the medal at home.

Now the giants of the Chinese Football Association jumped out again. They said that Chinese football does not need a savior, and he, Xiao Mian, is not a savior.They believe that China is on the road to greatness.Now the team needs to be stable, and the original team should not be affected. This is the best for Chinese football. Therefore, Xiao Mian, a kid who has only played in the professional league for less than [-] years, will definitely not be able to enter the national team. of any team.

At this moment, the fans and the media understood that the current Xiao Mian and the Olympic team of the national team will never have any intersection.The bosses of the Football Association didn't take Xiao Mian seriously at all. It was a court of death for a small player to steal their limelight.

However, some media still did not give up, and they even privately interviewed Ikovic, the head coach of the national team.Dujkovic was also interviewed at their repeated requests.In the interview, Dujkovic clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with the Chinese Football Association. Although he is now designated as the head coach, his real power has been emptied.

He also didn't understand why the Chinese Football Association didn't use such capable players, but instead found some less capable players to replace them.In the interview, he implicitly expressed that Folado actually wanted to recruit Xiao Mian into the team.However, these members of the national team are almost determined by members of the Football Association, and those who are the main force and those who are non-main players are clearly stated in some documents.This made Dujkovic and Folado confused about who is the head coach of the team.

Moreover, a team actually has a head coach and an executive head coach. This is the first time they have discovered it after they have been engaged in football for so many years.And before the game, none of them knew who would be in charge of the game.When they arrived at the locker room of the game field, the chairman of the Football Association began to speak, which of the two should direct the game.

Through this interview, the media and fans also know what Chinese football is.Since then, few people have called on the Football Association to recruit Xiao Mian into the national team.Wasn't it harming Xiao Mian to recruit Xiao Mian?There are many good seedlings in Chinese football, but it is all a matter of the soil that a few can thrive like Xiao Mian!

In fact, Xiao Mian is also very concerned about Chinese football, especially during this period of time.The Chinese men's national football team and the Chinese men's Olympic football team have a lot of games. Xiao Mian also hopes to be recruited into the team and play for the national team.Especially the Olympic team, after all, this is the Olympic Games held in China.

However, when Xiao Mian saw these reports, Xiao Mian's heart was chilled.Especially the factual information brought by Du Ruoming made Xiao Mian completely give up on the Chinese men's football team.Chinese football is in the hands of these fathers, and it will not be damaged, nor will it be disabled.

After letting go of these things, Xiao Mian and Liu Ruyan looked at the European Cup seriously.Since Xiao Mian played football in Italy, he paid close attention to Italian football.So, they went to Switzerland to watch the Italian national team play.

However, who would have thought that the [-] World Cup champion team would lose to the mighty Orange Legion Dutch team by a big score of [-]:[-] in the first match.This was really beyond Xiao Mian's expectations, but the problems of the Italian team from this game are still very obvious. The age structure is too old, and almost all the players are veterans of the [-] World Cup.

This loss may also have something to do with the team being in the death group. Their mental pressure may be too great.However, in the second group match, the Italian team also failed to seize the opportunity in the match against the weaker opponent Romania in the group, allowing the opponent to draw.This caused an uproar in Italy, and they couldn't believe that what they saw was the truth.

In another game in the same group, the Dutch still had a strong [-]:[-] advantage, still with a [-]-goal advantage, defeating the [-] World Cup champion France.The strength shown by the Dutch is simply staggering. Many people are speculating that the Dutch may have the last laugh in this cup.

Now the situation in Group C where Italy is in is grim. The Dutch have won both races and have already appeared ahead of schedule. The rest of Italy, France, and Romania only have one point. The final round of competition will determine who will qualify second in the group .However, the outside world is not optimistic about Romania, because they will face the Dutch team, which is gaining momentum.Next, the Italian team and the French team will face off, and whoever wins will qualify.

In order to avoid tacit balls, the last round of the same group will be played at the same time.Unsurprisingly, the Netherlands continued their strength and easily defeated Romania [-]-[-], and the Romanians also returned home ahead of schedule.

Xiao Mian came to the match between Italy and France, which also attracted a lot of fans.In this game, the two teams fought fiercely. They really showed the posture of either you die or you live.The Italian team narrowly qualified from the group stage.

Next, Italy unfortunately met the mighty Spain. In the last round of the group stage, they slammed against each other, and their physical strength was huge.Before they could react, they slammed into the mighty Spanish team.However, the Italians were so tenacious that they dragged the game into a penalty shootout.However, God was not on their side. In the end, they regretted losing in the penalty shootout and had to return home early.

Unexpectedly, the Dutch team, which was very strong in the group stage, also collapsed in the quarter-finals.They actually lost to the Russian team led by the amazing coach Guus Hiddink.There are too many unexpected things in this cup, and many people are speechless.

After that, Spain and Germany entered the final one after another, and finally the Spaniard won the European Cup in [-] by virtue of Torres' personal heroism.

The top scorer of this cup was taken away by Spain's Villa, who scored a total of [-] goals in this cup.The second place is the Russian Pavlyuchenko, who scored three goals in this cup and won the silver boot.Rumors before the cup, Spain's Real Madrid took a fancy to him.Now, after his wonderful performance in the European Cup, his worth will definitely increase greatly.The bronze boot was won by Germany's Podolski, who also scored three goals.

The most important award in this competition, the most valuable player of the competition, was given to Spanish midfielder Harvey.Xavi has been famous for a long time and is the midfield engine of the Spanish team. He contributed a lot to the Spanish team's championship.

And Russia's new tsar Arshavin performed very eye-catching in this cup, and his value continued to double. It is said that many teams have already started looking for his agent.The media speculates that at the start of the new season, the new Russian czar will definitely be a player of that wealthy club.Moreover, besides Arshavin, there are many other players who also became famous by virtue of this cup, and their net worth doubled! !
For this, Xiao Mian is also very envious, they have such a platform to show themselves.But Xiao Mian did not. Speaking of this, he thought of Chinese football again.He knows that if he has such a performance in the Olympics, he will definitely not get less value from a good performance in the European Cup.It's a pity that Chinese football doesn't need Xiao Mian, and he can't show himself to time through this.This also made Xiao Mian determined to present himself perfectly in the league and make his name famous all over the world! !

This cup made Xiao Mian feel a lot, but he hasn't felt it yet.Liu Ruyan proposed to go back to China to see the Olympic Games in front of her house!
