Chapter 1015

In the 2026 World Cup, the Chinese team's qualifiers are in a hurry.

The head coach dismissed get out of class, and Tang Zhenglong took office the next day.

This incident immediately caused a sensation, because the Chinese team had only the last game against Iran in the qualifiers.

The Chinese team must beat Iran on the road to participate in next year's World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

At a time like this, even someone with a slightly smarter mind would not be able to wade into the muddy water.

But Tang Zhenglong took office.

This is either the greatest coach in the history of the national football, or the stupidest coach in the history of the national football.

What's even more weird is that Tang Zhenglong doesn't need an annual salary. If he enters the World Cup, he can just give a bonus.

At the press conference, what Tang Zhenglong said was very simple.

"Whenever the national team needs me, I am duty-bound. I will definitely come back to help the national team."

"Are you confident?"

Tang Zhenglong shook his head.

"The current situation is very bad. We are one point behind Iran. The next game will be at the devil's home court in Iran. I think everyone knows how difficult it is."

The Chinese reporters in the audience were silent. The Iranians are very thieves, and their home court is at a high altitude. No one in the entire Asian qualifiers has won in their arena yet.

It's like Bolivia in South America.

Tang Zhenglong shrugged, "But we have no choice, either we enter the World Cup, or the Iranians have the last laugh, it's as simple as that."

"See you next week in Tehran."

******
The plane descended slowly, and when they got off the plane, the Iranians were very negligent, and everything they gave to the Chinese team was the worst.

This annoyed the national football team. Although they were rivals, when the Iranians visited China, the Chinese Football Association did not treat them badly. They provided good food and drinks.

Tang Zhenglong did not lose his temper. This is a psychological warfare by the Iranians, and the purpose is self-evident.

Arriving at the hotel, the Chinese team began closed training.

During the whole process, reporters were refused, but from time to time some Iranians made it to the top of the building in the distance.

Tang Zhenglong's coaching team is Zheng Zhi + Li Tie.

The two were going to calm down, but this time Tang Zhenglong was serious.

"Go and call the people from the AFC Organizing Committee."

Someone from the organizing committee came, a Qatari official.

Tang Zhenglong pointed to the Iranians in the distance.

"If you can't clear the field within half an hour, then please judge the Chinese team to win 3-0, and we will return home immediately."

The other party is stupid.

"Don, this is embarrassing me."

"is it?"

"Hehe, children, pack up your things, let's go back."

The Qataris also became nervous when they saw it.

People from West Asia generally help people from West Asia, but Tang Zhenglong is a thorn who is not afraid of the sky and the earth. It is not so easy to fight Tang Zhenglong.

If the Chinese team really withdraws from the competition, then it will be bad.

"I have collected enough information and we will see you at the AFC Arbitration Committee."

"..."

"Okay, give me half an hour, I'll talk to the Iranians."

Soon, the Iranians disappeared and the Chinese team resumed training.

Zheng Zhi and Li Tie were puzzled.

Why did Tang Zhenglong not get mad when he lost his salute at the airport, but he got mad because of this incident?
Tang Zhenglong said with a smile: "The Iranian Football Association can completely shirk responsibility for the airport matter. Maybe it really has nothing to do with them, but stealing information is completely the fault of the Iranians. It is impossible for them to get rid of it."

"That's what it is!!"

*****
Tang Zhenglong attended the pre-match press conference on time.

Tang Zhenglong was still so arrogant.

"Since my first Asian Cup match, I haven't lost to the Iranians, and I don't think I will either this time."

"But that was when you were a player, now you're a manager."

"As the head coach, I led Cologne to the Bundesliga. This is not something ordinary people can do. My ability to coach Asian teams is more than enough."

At this time, some reporters suggested that Iran's home game on the plateau was unfair.

Tang Zhenglong said with a smile: "Fighting on the plateau will indeed cause great harm to the players, and they may die suddenly. This is also the reason why the Iranians have such a great home court advantage."

The Iranian reporter immediately retorted: "This is our home stadium, so why not go to another country?"

"I think the most important thing in a football game is the health of the players. If this cannot be guaranteed, then everything else is empty."

"I talked to some Chinese reporters yesterday. They are struggling to walk. Think about it, how difficult is it for us to play football?"

"The Iranians are not used to playing in China, can they also ask to play in another place?"

"of course."

puff.

Anyway, the comparison is over, of course you can say that.

"I still say that, players' health is above everything else, everything else is false."

*******
Iran is still quite a backward country. Although the stadium can seat 10 people, the equipment is very old, so games are usually played in the afternoon, so as not to fail the lighting equipment.

In addition, the stadium must be seriously overloaded on the national team match day, and there are even many people sitting on the edge of the roof, which is quite dangerous.

Under such circumstances, the Chinese team set foot on the lawn and started this life-or-death game.

Tang Zhenglong gave the order to die and must score.

This kind of competition is life and death, there is no middle ground at all.

After the game started, the Iranians took advantage of the plateau and launched a flood of attacks on the Chinese team.

Iran's striker Azmon crushed the Chinese team's defense.

Azmon's level is the kind that can play in the five major leagues.

After several crushes, there was a hole in the Chinese team's defense, and Azmon faced the goalkeeper directly.

With a shot, the ball hit the goal post, and the audience screamed.

Tang Zhenglong has been to this stadium many times, and every time it is difficult, but this time must be the most difficult, because this time Tang Zhenglong is a spectator.

Zheng Zhi and Li Tie were also abused by this stadium.

The memory of that hardship is still fresh.

"It's okay, just hold on in the first half." Tang Zhenglong comforted his two assistant coaches.

At the end of the first half, the Chinese team struggled to hold on to a 0-0 score, and the ball possession rate was appalling. With 30% of the ball possession rate, the Chinese team was in an absolute disadvantage.

In the locker room, Tang Zhenglong asked everyone to have a relaxing massage and inhale oxygen, but he didn't say much. At this time, the fate of the Chinese team was no longer in his hands, and Tang Zhenglong didn't want to criticize these young people too much.

Before playing in the second half, Tang Zhenglong hugged his players one by one.

"I wish to bring my luck to you, I have participated in three World Cups and now it is your turn."

The veterans have all left, and the young people didn't take responsibility immediately. It's not easy.

Zheng Zhi and Li Tie came out last.

"Longlong, can the children stand it?"

Li Tie said with a smile: "I was so nervous when I played the qualifiers for the first time."

"Hehe, it's up to people to do it."
