stadium assassin

Chapter 23

After the World Youth Team arrived in Japan, they rushed into the hotel to rest to overcome the jet lag. Although the time difference between Japan and China was similar, He Yihang still asked the players to rest in the hotel.

During this period, He Yihang and a group of coaches kept playing the information collected from Thailand in the lounge.

In the video, a No. [-] Thai player is very eye-catching. His physical fitness, height, and strong jumping ability have made all the coaching staff very dignified.

"What's the name of this?"

"It seems to be called Tasu?" An assistant coach said after checking the information.

"Hesu? What kind of strange name is this?" Wang Hang said a little confused.

Hearing Wang Hang's words, one of the assistant coaches said: "This is not strange. If you know that Thailand introduces new inventions every year to "claim" the surname, it won't be so strange."

Hearing the words of the assistant coach, even He Yihang said in disbelief: "Don't they all have surnames?"

The assistant coach who knew the situation said: "In fact, they really don't have the concept of surnames. Until the last century, Thais only had first names but no surnames. In the past, Thais chose their surnames as freely as they chose their first names. Sometimes changing their surnames Because a certain surname sounds good, sometimes it is changed to the surname of a famous or rich person.

They seem to have surnames only in the 60s. The reason why we pronounce it is very awkward because of the meaning of the translation. In fact, the name of the team member just now seems to mean "strong man" in Thai."

Although Thailand is in Asia, the Chinese coaching staff of this neighbor is still not very clear. Seeing a lot of difficult names on the list makes everyone feel embarrassed.

In fact, Thailand introduced the surname system in legislation in 1913. At that time, King Rama VI felt that if Thai people continued to have no surnames, many legal and administrative problems would arise, so he selected 6000 words as surnames.

Today, almost every Thai has a surname, except for some remote mountain tribes who still do not have a surname.According to government statistics, 6200 million Thais now have a total of 68 surnames, and the number is increasing every year.

In the end, the coaching staff nicknamed all the players who needed attention, such as No. 11 strong man, No. [-] watermelon who can laugh, and No. [-] captain Shulinzi. In short, there are a lot of strange nicknames.

According to the assistant coach who knows half Thai, this is their own name.

At this time, in the video, No. [-] of the Thai team caused a foul in the penalty area and was sent off with a red card. Seeing the player fell to the ground in pain, all the coaches were surprised.

"It's just for people. It's just too cruel. It's murder for such a player to appear on the court..." Wang Hang said angrily.

After seeing No. [-]'s style, He Yihang immediately asked the assistant coach to bring him all the information about No. [-].

In the evening, He Yihang took the information and said angrily: "How can this kind of player be allowed to play? He shouldn't play football at all, but should practice Muay Thai!!"

It turns out that in this information, the record of red cards sent off by this Thai player is not uncommon. Among them, two players were kicked by him and directly scrapped their careers.

Seeing He Yihang's fury, the coach who sent the information said in a low voice: "According to the information obtained by the reporter, that strong man was indeed a Muay Thai practitioner before!"

He Yihang was silent for a long time after hearing what the assistant coach said. He was really worried about the safety of the players in the first match.

He Yihang stared at the name of Thailand's head coach Jessica Bang. A person who can allow such a player can see that he is an unscrupulous person.

"Hello, audience friends. The 1999 World Youth Championship is about to start. The first group match is the Japanese team and the United Arab Emirates in Group B. Now let's introduce..." On TV, the commentator of CCTV was explaining the game .

However, Chinese audiences are not very interested in watching the first host game. Even if there are fans watching, it is because if the Chinese World Youth Team qualify, it is very likely that they will meet the Japanese team. They want to see the strength of the Japanese team. , the rest is to see the United Arab Emirates beat Japan.

"Senior Zhang Shan, look at the strength of the two sides in this match..." Li Yan, still a beautiful woman, partnered with Zhang Shan.

"The Japanese team has produced a lot of outstanding players in recent years, like Keisuke Honda. Endo Yasuhito and Utami are both promising players from the outside world. Among them, Endo Yasuhito is the biggest star in this World Youth Championship, so I I think the Japanese team will have a greater advantage..." Zhang Shan said slowly.

"Mr. Zhang's game has started. Let's see how the Japanese team's real strength is. I heard that Yasuhito Endo is well-known even in the Bundesliga. Only Keisuke Honda and Utami are talented players. Our players are very likely Will meet them..." Li Yan expressed her opinion.

"Yes, if the Chinese group qualify second and the Japanese group is first, China will meet in the first round of the semi-finals. Even if they don't meet in the first round, they will meet in the semi-finals."

Before Zhang Shan finished speaking, the Japanese pair had already got a set ball in the frontcourt. Yasuhito Endo took the shot and found Keisuke Honda in front. Although Keisuke Honda missed the goal, the goalkeeper did not save it but He hit it out, and then was scored by Utami from the wing.

Seeing the Japanese team score so quickly, Zhang Shan and Li Yan were a little silent, not as sharp as Hyundai Gao's Japanese team's attack.

The Japanese team led 3-0 in the first half.

This not only surprised Zhang Shan and the others in the commentary room, but also the Chinese World Youth Team in Japan. Wang Qi remembered that this Japanese World Youth Team won the best result ever, runner-up, runner-up in the World Youth Championship .

In other words, the Chinese World Youth Team met the strongest Japanese World Youth Team.

"But this is interesting. Only by defeating such an opponent can I prove my strength. I want to lead this World Youth Team to the top of the world. I believe that I will definitely attract the attention of the rich." Wang Qi was secretly happy in his heart.

However, the strength of the Japanese team is indeed terrible. Even in the second half, most of the main players have been replaced, but the final score is still 4:1.

The United Arab Emirates only scored a face-saving goal at the end of the game. At this time, the Japanese team has become the number one enemy of all teams participating in the World Youth Championship.

"Okay, tomorrow is our first match in Group A. When playing against the Thai team, don't stick to the ball too much, be careful of their foul moves, and protect yourself..." He Yihang emphasized again.

"Yes, I understand the coach..."

All the players agreed, after all, they also saw the brutal style of play of the Thai team in the video.

The next day the weather was not very good, the sky began to drizzle, and the World Youth Team had already arrived at the stadium early in the morning.

When the World Youth Team saw that the whole stadium was red, they were all excited. When Chinese football fans lost confidence in the country, as long as there is a Chinese team, there must be these lovely fans.

"We must win..."

"We must win, for these fans..."

All the World Youth Teams secretly made up their minds in their hearts.

Tang Wan stayed in front of the TV early on, and the familiar voices came from the TV again, it was Zhang Shan and Li Yan.

"Senior Zhang Shan and I will explain the whole process of this World Youth Championship. Let us look forward to the first match of the Chinese World Youth Team to get off to a good start..."

Listening to Li Yan's commentary on TV, Tang Wan secretly prayed in front of the TV: "I want to win, Wang Qi..."
