Champion’s Heart
Chapter 71 Return to Barcelona
The game against the Liverpool youth team is the last stop of the Chinese football teenagers in the UK.
In the UK, they achieved a very good result, with two wins, one draw and one loss in four games.
Because of their outstanding performance, The Successor of the Green Green has attracted much attention in China, and the ratings have begun to rise.
In fact, 2008 was a dark year for Chinese football.
Last year, the Chinese national team was just eliminated in the group stage of the Asian Cup, which became a humiliating Asian Cup.
In order to prepare for the Olympic Games held at home this year, the Football Association formulated a national Olympic strategy and sent the team to Germany for training. The German coach will lead the team to play games. This national Olympic team is also based on the group of national youth teams that performed well in the World Youth Championship in the Netherlands in 2005, and they have high expectations.
For the sake of the Olympics, the Football Association even sacrificed the national team's World Cup qualifiers in South Africa. It seems that in their eyes, the World Cup is far less important than the Olympics held by themselves-it is true. In terms of political significance, the Beijing Olympics is indeed greater than the World Cup in South Africa.
So many things have been sacrificed to ensure that the Olympic team can have a good result in the Olympics.
As a result, in the Beijing Olympics, the Olympic team lost all three games, and the group was eliminated at the bottom.
What makes people more dissatisfied than being eliminated is the team's performance in the game, especially the game against Belgium. The Chinese team simply lost and lost.
The disappointing performance of Chinese football has spawned a lot of jokes during the Olympics.
For example, after Messi participated in the Beijing Olympics, he returned to the team to show his teammates the latest cheering slogan he learned in China: Football Association idiot!
The Olympic Games were eliminated, and the World Cup qualifiers were also eliminated. Chinese football suddenly seemed to have come to an end. For a long time in the foreseeable future, the world football competition has nothing to do with Chinese football.
It is against this background that The Heir to the Green Field went out with a high profile, and it is no wonder that it has attracted so many people's attention and criticism.
In fact, the program Successor of the Greenery was established very early. At that time, neither the Chinese national team nor the Chinese Olympic team had yet collapsed in their respective fields.
They may be planning to use the gimmick of the Olympic team's participation in the Beijing Olympics to fuel their own programs.
I didn't expect that when the program officially started recording, the general environment of Chinese football would take a sharp turn for the worse.
Under such circumstances, the sixteen football teenagers, including Zhou Yi, seem to have taken the blame for the entire Chinese football.
Fans and fake fans vented their disappointment and anger towards Chinese football, and even their dissatisfaction in life, on these innocent children.
After the team's 0:12 defeat to the La Masia youth team in the team's first game, this emotion reached its peak.
But this team showed something special in a very difficult environment-they were not knocked down by the curse and pressure.
Starting from the Dortmund youth team game, they gradually found the right path.
Only then did the audience realize that these kids were different from the Chinese players they thought they had. They did not completely collapse because of consecutive failures. On the contrary, they broke through the siege!
Everyone has seen the performance of the four games in the UK, and their progress is very obvious.
It is really a perfect ending to end the trip to the UK with a victory.
When the performance of young players improved, the ratings of the program increased, which fully demonstrated that football still has a great influence in China. It's just that in the past, due to various reasons, this kind of influence was negative...
Now, finally, there are some positives.
※※※
With the expectations of domestic audiences and fans, the Chinese teenagers bid farewell to Liverpool and took a plane from John Lennon Airport to Milan, Italy.
There is only one city in Italy, and two games, against the youth teams of the two giants in Milan.
AC Milan youth team and Inter Milan youth team.
Because they have achieved a good record in the UK, the Chinese football teenagers are very confident, and they seem to be no problem with the youth teams of Serie A clubs that have declined.
But the reality is that...
They lost to the youth teams of AC Milan and Inter Milan.
Not only did they lose the score, they were also suppressed by the youth teams of the two Serie A giants on the scene.
Such an ups and downs performance is in line with the characteristics of the youth team game, but why is there such a performance?
It is not convincing to attribute the reason solely to the instability of the youth players.
On the Internet, there are also many posts discussing the performance of Chinese teenagers.
There are some opinions that are still very sharp.
For example, a netizen named Lin Hainiaoren wrote an article discussing the importance of Zhou Yi to this team in the Successor of the Green post.
In the article, he pointed out that the reason why the Chinese team lost in these two games, and their performance was mediocre, was because Zhou Yi was severely restrained by the Italian team's tactics.
He analyzed why the Chinese team had such completely different performances against England and Italy.
He believes that this is related to the fact that the youth training of the English team pays more attention to physical training, rough skills, and backward tactical awareness. The only English team that the Chinese teenagers lost to was the Arsenal youth team, but Arsenal's youth training philosophy is different from the latter three.
It is not surprising that the Chinese teenagers with superior skills and tactics beat the English youth team with rough skills and backward tactical concepts.
But it was different after arriving in Italy. Italian players have been instilled in various tactics since childhood, and their understanding of tactics is very high. In this regard, the Chinese team can't beat the Italians. Coupled with the natural defensive skills of the Italian team, it is only natural that the Chinese team cannot chew on these two hard bones.
As for some people saying that the Serie A has declined, the Chinese teenagers should be able to beat them. The netizen Lin Hainiaoren also expressed his objection.
He believes that the level of Serie A is the level of Serie A, which cannot simply be equated with the level of youth training in Italy.
The Premier League has always been the best football league in Europe, but the level of their youth training is not flattering.
In addition, despite the fact that the Bundesliga seems to be the same as Serie A now, almost no one cares about it, but the level of youth training in German football is really high. He also boldly predicted that the German national team will definitely be able to regain the championship of international competitions within ten years, either the World Cup or the European Cup.
※※※
Losing two games in a row, and losing two games after performing well before, is indeed quite depressing.
But what makes the young Chinese players even more depressing is that under such circumstances, they have returned to Barcelona, which is their sad place.
According to the arrangement of the Heirs of the Green Green, the European Challenge Tour is a circle, starting from Barcelona and ending in Barcelona.
Barcelona's youth team is the only team they will face twice.
This arrangement shows that the program group attaches great importance to and affirms Barcelona's youth training.
Of course, this is also in line with the theme of their program focusing on the cultivation of youth football talents.
Once again set foot on this land, let everyone sigh.
When they came to Barcelona for the first time, their hearts were full of longing for La Masia. In their minds, Barcelona is simply the holy city of football. Here are the best football clubs in the world, the best stars, and the best youth training system.
But after a game, the holy city is still the same holy city, but in the hearts of Chinese teenagers, the feeling of admiration is much less, replaced by pain.
They conceded twelve goals in a game, and they walked around Europe. This was the worst game they lost, and it was the only game in which they conceded double digits.
All given to them by the Barcelona youth team.
Even if they beat the Chelsea youth team, defeated the Liverpool youth team, and drew with the Manchester United youth team, they could not offset the pain brought to them by the Barcelona youth team.
When the plane arrived at Barcelona airport, the young players were generally silent. The city reminded them of the sad past two months ago.
After the plane stopped and the cabin door opened, the young players silently packed their luggage and followed the flow of people to the cabin door.
Thinking of facing the Barcelona youth team again in one week...many people are still a little apprehensive.
Especially after experiencing a two-game losing streak in Italy just now, this kind of fear is mixed with lack of self-confidence, which makes people feel even worse.
But there are still exceptions.
Zhou Yi was carrying his schoolbag. He got out of the cabin, stood on the gangway, looked at the busy Barcelona Airport, and suddenly shouted: Barcelona! I, Hu Hansan, are back again!!
This voice startled Liang Qiqi, who was walking down the gangway in front of him, almost stepped on the ground and fell off the gangway. Fortunately, his hand caught the handrail of the gangway in time, but the bag he was carrying was no longer there. I couldn't take care of it anymore, and rolled and fell to the ground from the gangway, which attracted the attention of many people.
He didn't bother to look at his bag, but turned back to look at Zhou Yi full of anger, but Zhou Yi didn't notice him at all, he was arguing with Sun Pan.
What's the name of the ghost, I was almost frightened by you! Sun Pan complained.
Are you scared by me, or by the name Barcelona? Zhou Yi asked back.
Of course it's you!
hehe.
No hehe!
It's delicious.
Drink when you're thirsty!
Sun Pan, Zhou Yi took Hehe apart... Yang Muge reminded his roommate.
Sun Pan was stunned when he heard Yang Muge's words, as if he had been enchanted, he froze there, wondering what it meant.
Seeing Sun Pan's crash, Zhou Yi sighed: Sun Pan, I don't believe you said that you have completed the nine-year compulsory education. Have you falsified your resume?
The teammates who were watching the scene laughed when they saw this scene.
The somewhat oppressive and dull atmosphere before was swept away.
Of course, as for Liang Qiqi and his bag, they seem to have been completely forgotten...
