Godfather of national football

Chapter 229
On the training ground, the Chinese players are fighting in groups. Because it does not involve tactical drills, it is more like a joke, so today's training is open throughout.

Seeing the technical team sent by Saudi Arabia setting up cameras in the distance and recording carefully, Li Guo smiled, "You can't see anything today."

As the favorite to win the championship, the training of the Chinese team attracted a lot of media to take pictures. Countless pairs of eyes stared at every move on the training ground, but Li Guo always felt that he was being watched by someone, and this feeling was very strong.

Because of the eagerness and greed in those eyes, Li Guo suddenly turned his head and saw a young head lying on the barbed wire fence of the training ground, the little guy was watching every move in the training ground attentively.

This dark-skinned, slightly youthful little boy was very inconspicuous among the crowd. If you didn’t identify him carefully, you wouldn’t even recognize him as Chinese. But Li Guo recognized him from the crowd at a glance. He was Zhang Yuning, the captain of the Chinese National Youth Team who played for Vitesse in the Netherlands.

Li Guo remembers that he should only be 14 years old now, and he is still playing in Greentown.Li Guo walked over to look at him, and Xiao Zhang Yuning immediately lowered her head shyly.

"Zhang Yuning!"

Xiao Zhang Yuning had a normal conditioned reflex, and suddenly raised his head to look at Li Guo, feeling incredible, "How did Li Guo know his name?"

Because Zhang Yuning knew that there was an old Chinese player named Zhang Yuning, he thought it might be the big Zhang Yuning who had come, looked around and found that there was no one at all.

"Don't look at it, yes, I just called you?"

Zhang Yuning pointed at himself and made a final confirmation. Li Guo chuckled and beckoned Zhang Yuning to come over.

Zhang Yuning spread out his hands, signaling that he couldn't make it through, and Li Guo asked Chen An to bring him over.Walking into the training ground, Zhang Yuning suspected that he was dreaming. As a rich second generation, Zhang Yuning has been influenced by football since he was a child. In the 2002 World Cup, he went to watch the World Cup with his father and the Chinese team. This time, he also came to Doha with his father to watch the Asian Cup.

"Li Guo, ah no, Director Li," Zhang Yuning said timidly.

Li Guo smiled slightly and said, "If you don't mind, just call me head."

"Head?" Zhang Yuning is very familiar with the national team. He once read in a football magazine that only the staff and players of the national team call Li Guo "head", and the outside world calls him Director Li.

"Head Li!"

"Hahaha," Chen An beside him laughed.

Li Guo touched Zhang Yuning's head, "You must want to know why I know you?"

Zhang Yuning nodded quickly.

"Now China's youth training is also under my management. The data of domestic players in the U17 age group has been entered into the database. Of course you are one of them, so I know you."

"Database?" Zhang Yuning usually plays football manager, so he asked naively: "Then my data is high?"

Of course Li Guo couldn't tell him the truth to avoid his arrogance, so he said, "It's so-so. If you want to become a national player in the future, you still need to work hard."

"Well," Zhang Yuning nodded.

Li Guo thinks that Zhang Yuning is very similar to Kaka in China, a rich second generation who was raised by the poor. His family is rich, but he is low-key and most importantly, he is very hardworking.

"Where do you play at the club now?"

"Center!"

"Then do you like to play center forward?"

Zhang Yuning thought about it, and it was difficult to answer this question. In fact, sometimes football players themselves don't know where they are suitable to play.

For example, Schweinsteiger of Germany has been playing right midfielder since the youth training, whether in the Bayern second team, Bayern first team, or the German national team. Until Van Gaal came to Bayern Munich in 2009, Xiaozhu was moved to the position of the midfielder and has since become a top midfielder.

Some people have also said that Beckham at his peak, from his overall perspective, if he moved to the center instead of being fixed on the right, he might have been the world's footballer.

"I like it." Zhang Yuning replied, but his tone was obviously not firm.

While chatting, Ji Ke came over, and when he saw Zhang Yuning, he jokingly said, "Boss, this is your illegitimate child, isn't it so old?"

Li Guo raised his hand and slapped it on the back of Ji Ke's head, making Zhang Yuning burst out laughing.Ji Ke, who was beaten, drooped his head, "Head, I was wrong."

"Brother Ji Ke," Zhang Yuning called out.

Don't look at Ji Ke's five-year-old and three-year-old, but his mental age is not very old, he is still a big child. Brother Ji Ke said this in his heart.

"Dark little brother,"

"My name is Zhang Yuning."

Ji Ke remembered that there used to be an old international player named Zhang Yuning, known as the jade-faced killer. His skin was very fair, but the little boy in front of him had dark skin.

"New friend, do you want an autograph? Brother Ji Ke will sign it for you."

Li Guo said: "How do you know he is your fan? Maybe he is Gao Lin's fan."

Seeing no one in the distance, Ji Ke bragged: "Head, Chen Gelin is not here, so it's my turn to be the first striker."

"Haha, you have a thick skin."

Then Li Guo patted Zhang Yuning, and said to Ji Ke: "He is 14 years old, and he is also a player. He will probably be better than you in the future."

Ji Ke looked at the black and thin man in front of him, and chuckled, "By the way, kid, who do you think is the top striker in the Chinese team?"

Zhang Yuning thought for a while and replied, "I don't know now, but after five years, I think it must be me."

Ji Ke thought I'd fuck it up, even if I'm thick-skinned, this little guy is even thicker-skinned than me.

Ji Ke gave a thumbs up, "Little friend, you have surpassed me in terms of bragging."

Ji Ke was chatting comfortably, and Shen Rui shouted in the distance: "Ji Ke, come back from the dead, our team is missing one person, and three people have been abused."

The Chinese team is now in a 5v5 confrontation training. Ji Ke said just now that he wanted to escape, but he didn't come back once he escaped. 4v5, Shen Rui was abused miserably.

"understood!"

Zhang Yuning and Li Guo chuckled, Ji Ke looked embarrassed, and quickly ran back to join the opposing camp.

This kind of 5-on-5 confrontation training was very intense. Suddenly a ball rolled towards Zhang Yuning. When Pu Shuang saw it, he thought it was a caddy.

"Cadboy, throw the ball over here."

But Zhang Yuning stood still, Pu Shuang was puzzled, and ran over by himself. At this time, the ball was half a meter away from Zhang Yuning. Pu Shuang originally wanted to step on the sole of his left foot, pull it, and then tap his heel to show off in front of the "little caddy".

But just when Pu Shuang was about to touch the ball, an unexpected scene happened. The kid who looked like a caddy suddenly started, Pu Shuang was taken aback, "What does he want to do?"
