There is a team called the Friendship Team

Chapter 168 Take office!

The call is connected.

"Hello, this is the Friendship Team..." Shi Jie said clearly.

On the other side of the phone, of course it was Li Weifeng.

"As expected, you called, Shi Jie." Li Weifeng said.

"!!" When Shi Jie heard this tone of voice, he was undoubtedly Li Weifeng!

"Brother Feng, it's really you..."

"Hahaha, I'm surprised. I am a vice president of Tianhai Club, so I applied for the job with you." Li Weifeng said with a self-mockery.

"Yeah, what's going on...?" Shi Jie asked suspiciously.

"It's like this..." Li Weifeng recounted to Shi Jie the story of his angry resignation as the vice president that day...

"Oh, that's right. Brother Feng, you did the right thing. This is no different from being demoted. They are trying to squeeze you out..." Shi Jie said.

What Shi Jie said is true. There are not many domestic football clubs that can make a profit. Each club is mainly supported by the team's first-team results and the support of sponsors. The marketing department is completely dispensable. exist.

Therefore, if Li Weifeng is transferred to the marketing department, his workload will be reduced by more than half, and he will be less talkative. It is completely different from the transfer power that controlled the team before!

"Forget it, let's not talk about it, it's all over. How about it, Mr. Shi, when will you arrange an interview for me?" Li Weifeng asked in a joking tone.

"Haha, what Brother Feng said, do you still need an interview? You are a famous Chinese football star and the former captain of China. If these kids know that you are coming to coach, they will be so happy!" Shi Jie said happily .

"Ajie, the necessary procedures still need to be followed. I don't want to be said to be relying on relationships or fame to overwhelm the host. You and Quan Weilong are the managers of the club, and I'm just working under your subordinates. You can make arrangements, but I can I don't want to be unemployed at home, even for a day..." Li Weifeng said.

"Okay, that's it. Brother Feng, come over this Saturday." Shi Jie said.

"Saturday? I read the schedule. On Saturday, the Friendship Team will play the first round of the Chinese Champions League. You want me to 'airborne' directly!" Li Weifeng said.

"Hahaha, I didn't lie to you, you really did your homework. I want to introduce you to the players on the day of the game on Saturday, just announce it directly. In the first round of the Champions League, you will be on the sidelines first. How about actually taking charge of the coach in the second round?" Shi Jie asked.

"Okay, it's better to be respectful than obedient. I have to prepare well these few days. After I try to take office, the work will be seamlessly connected, and I will repay Ajie's trust in me as soon as possible." Li Weifeng said with a smile.

"Okay, that's it. Brother Feng, see you at Fulun Middle School on Saturday!"

"Ok!"

After hanging up the phone, Shi Jie and Quan Weilong were so happy that they clapped their crowns to celebrate!
Before, the two of them had a lot of concerns, worrying that the new coach would not be able to convince the crowd, worried that the new coach was inexperienced, worried that the new coach was not familiar with the team...

And Li Weifeng just satisfies all their concerns and is the most suitable person for the new coach position!

Li Weifeng took the initiative to recommend himself, as if a divine help...

Time flies, and it's Saturday in a blink of an eye.

Today is the first round of the Chinese Champions League. The Friendship Team played at the football field of Fulun Middle School at home and played against the WLCB rookie team.

After a week, the players of the Friendship Team gradually came out of the shadow of last week's FA Cup qualifying defeat...

The players were warming up on the sidelines talking and laughing.

With 15 minutes before the start of the game, Shi Jie called all the players to form a circle.

The new coach Li Weifeng took office just 15 minutes before the game.

Shi Jie took the lead in introducing to the players: "I believe everyone knows each other. Standing next to me is Mr. Li Weifeng. He led the Tianhai Echelon team to play a friendly match with us before, and now he has come to our team and become the team's coach. Yes, Weilong and I will devote more energy to the operation of the club, and hope that everyone can cooperate well with the new coach in the future and achieve good results in this year's Champions League."

"En, um!" Amber, Chen Ting and others nodded frequently, full of expectations. They grew up watching Li Weifeng play football since they were young, and they have long regarded him as their idol.

Now, the idol has become the head coach of his team and has the opportunity to work with the idol, which is something they could not have imagined before.

"Hi everyone!" Li Weifeng waved his hand and greeted the players proactively.

"Hello, Brother Feng!"

"Good coach!"

……

The players shouted raggedly.

Obviously, Li Weifeng is not familiar enough with the players.

"In this game, Brother Feng will sit on the sidelines and watch the game from the sidelines to observe everyone's performance at close range. Weilong and I will coach you for the last time. I hope you can show your best form and give us a short period of time. The coaching career has come to a successful conclusion." Shi Jie said.

The players nodded in agreement, feeling a little bit reluctant.

Subsequently, Quan Weilong announced the starting lineup for this game. In this game, the Friendship Team formed a 433 formation that is biased towards offense:

Forwards: Amber, Zhang Chao, Xu Mingdong;

Midfielders: Xu Songjiang, Chen Ting, Zeng Wubin;

Defenders: Guo Jiafan, Yu Sheng, Wei Zhengxian, Xie Yuan;
Goalkeeper: Liu Yiao.

The rival WLCB Rookie Team, like the Friendship Team, is also a club that was just established last year. This team is a team spontaneously organized by NMG fans.

At the same time, the NMG Football Association responded to the call of the National Football Association and reported the WLCB rookie team that stood out from the NMG regional competition to the Chinese Champions League.

However, the NMG regional competition is different from the Tianjin Super League played by the Friendship Team. The number of teams in the NMG region is much smaller, and the level is relatively amateur.

Therefore, although the WLCB rookie team "stands out" and enters the stage of the Chinese Champions League, it is weaker than other Chinese Champions League teams in terms of strength.

The staff of the Chinese Champions League walked to the sidelines, reminding the starting players of both sides to prepare to enter the field...

Shi Jie applauded everyone and said, "Come on, come on! Stick to our own style!"

The main players nodded, their expressions a little nervous.

Walking into the field, after both sides saluted, the players dispersed and stood to their positions.

As the captain of the game, Chen Ting also applauded his teammates and said: "Brothers, come on everyone. Perform well in front of the new coach, leave a good impression, and at the same time give Coach Shi and Coach Quan a perfect performance." Answer sheet!"

"Hmm!" The players recalled Shi Jie and Quan Weilong's earnest teachings over the past year, and their tension was greatly relieved, and their eyes became firmer.

On the sidelines, Li Weifeng sat on the bench very calmly. He knew that he was not the protagonist of the game, so it was inconvenient to say anything, so he quietly watched the game from the sidelines.

Players from both sides stand still.

The referee calibrated the time, pointed to the sky with one hand, and put the whistle in his mouth, "Woo—"

Game start!
Team Friendship's first Champions League game is also the "final battle" of Shi Jie and Quan Weilong's coaching careers. How will the boys of Team Friendship perform?
