God of Green

The remaining time of the match between China and Malaysia was spent in the tacit dawdling of the players on both sides.

The referee did not even give extra time, and blew the whistle to end the game in the 90th minute.

After the referee blew the final whistle, Jiang Xiaolin also obtained one assist 500 + 3 goals 3000 + win 2000 = a total of 5500 system basic experience.

In terms of game performance, Jiang Xiaolin only received a good performance rating, with a rating coefficient of 2. The final experience Jiang Xiaolin obtained in this game was 11,000.

Combined with the training experience of the previous few days, Jiang Xiaolin's level experience rose to level 17 255,000/300,000.

After the 6-1 victory over Vietnam in the first game, the Chinese team slaughtered Malaysia with a score of 6-0 in the second warm-up match in July.

Vietnam and Malaysia are really brothers in distress in Southeast Asia.

With such a large score gap, it should have become a big news reported by the media after the game. Besides, Jiang Xiaolin also performed a hat trick plus an assist, and his performance was outstanding, so the media should have reported a lot.

However, on the contrary, the media did not report much about the game process or even Jiang Xiaolin after the game.

The media reported extensively that when Dujkovic played the national anthem before the game, others held their heads high and sang the national anthem silently, but Dui bowed his head and made a silent gesture.

This abnormal scene was captured by the live TV camera, but the players and fans on the scene did not know it, but it triggered public opinion after the game.

Dui's disrespect for the Chinese national anthem was exposed by the media and became a silent mourning scandal, which was condemned by the whole nation.

Dui stood up to explain that he was thinking about other things at the time and apologized for the bad influence caused, but the media ignored it and continued to hype Dui's disrespect for China.

Some media also listed a series of events such as Dui's sex scandal and lateness, claiming that Dui was obviously no longer suitable to be the head coach of the National Olympic Team.

Although many people followed Dui's call for him to leave, why should he be fired?

The Olympics are about to begin. Now calling for Dui to leave, isn't this a last-minute coach change?

After all, Dui is one of the top ten coaches in the World Cup. Apart from his personal character, his level should not be so low, right?

Many people smelled a conspiracy from the voices of some media, including Dui himself. He believed that the media's overwhelming reports and criticisms were arranged by the Football Committee.

So, on July 16, Dui bombarded the Football Committee through the media, claiming that the list of the National Olympic Team was not his intention at all. Some people who should leave did not leave, and some people who should be recruited did not. He had no say in the list of the National Olympic Team, the match list, the match tactics, and the training arrangements.

Moreover, Dui also disclosed that some players complained about the excessive training volume, which caused some players to strain their muscles. He claimed that the training of the National Olympic Team was not arranged by him, but was directly arranged by the Football Committee, saying that military training was to be carried out.

Dui made his conflict with the Football Committee completely public, which means he was not prepared to compromise.

After Dui fired at the Football Committee, many people were stunned and commented, "Does the old man want to quit?"

Sure enough, on the morning of July 17, the day after Dui fired at the Football Committee, before the team training began, the head of the Football Committee, Lao Xie, walked into the training base and announced a shocking but reasonable decision: Dui would no longer be responsible for the training and competition of the Chinese national team and the National Olympic Team. Yin Tiesheng would serve as the executive coach of the National Olympic Team, be fully responsible for the training and competition of the National Olympic Team, and lead the team to the Beijing Olympics.

Whether it is the national team or the National Olympic Team, Dui will only be the head coach in name, the executive head coach of the National Olympic Team will become Yin Tiesheng, and the executive head coach of the national football team, Forado, will truly control the real power and will no longer be Dui's puppet and yes-man.

Dui is the head coach in name, but in fact he is a consultant, responsible only for analyzing the opponent's tactics and providing plans for the coaching staff to refer to.

This is completely hollowed out.

It is estimated that the remaining salary in the contract was a sore spot for Dui, otherwise he would not have accepted this arrangement.

Perhaps the Football Committee's request was to let Dui continue to serve as the nominal head coach until the end of the Olympics, otherwise he would not be paid. Dui gave in for the sake of money.

Jiang Xiaolin stood in the team, looking at the scene in front of him, and didn't know what to say.

With his experience, he couldn't judge who was right or wrong.

Dui was a coach who led the team to the World Cup and won the honor of the top ten coaches in the World Cup. It stands to reason that his level is not bad, but the sex scandal, lateness, and silence that broke out about him were not framed by the Football Committee. It is obvious that this person has problems.

But the Football CommitteeHere, Dui's criticism of the head coach for not being able to determine the player list is definitely true.

Apart from other things, among the over-age players, with Sun Jihai's status and strength, he should have a place, but I don't know why he is not there.

In addition, including Dui, the head of the Football Committee, Old Xie, has changed 12 national head coaches in three years, which is unprecedented and may never be repeated.

Jiang Xiaolin doesn't believe that these coaches are all unskilled duds. There must be something wrong with the Football Committee itself.

But Jiang Xiaolin couldn't analyze what went wrong. He could only follow the comments of the media and fans and say "system problems".

As for the specifics, he didn't have the level to analyze and explore.

The system won't teach Jiang Xiaolin to analyze and speculate these things.

If you can't figure it out, you can only stop thinking about it. Just train and play according to the rules.

Anyway, with Jiang Xiaolin's fame and status, it doesn't matter who is the head coach or the head coach.

In the afternoon, the news of Dui's dismissal spread throughout China. Some people claimed that this was not sports news, but entertainment news. Only the head of the Chinese Football Committee in the world would drive away 12 national coaches in three years.

In any case, the facts are set, and Jiang Xiaolin and other national Olympic players can only train in accordance with the coach's deployment, and no one dares to say more.

On July 20, the Chinese National Olympic Team, which changed its head coach, sat in Changchun to face the third warm-up opponent: the Australian National Olympic Team.

This was Yin Tiesheng's first game after he became the executive head coach. It was a test for both Yin Tiesheng himself and the Football Committee.

For this reason, Yin Tiesheng naturally changed some of the starting players according to his own ideas.

Of course, Jiang Xiaolin is the unshakable No. 9 striker, which no one can change or dare to change.

Before the game started, Jiang Xiaolin spent 2 attribute points to increase the 17 "arc" and "hook shot" to 18 points respectively, and the attribute point balance was 39 points.

In addition, Jiang Xiaolin also checked the team aura and found that the overall state of the team was close to 80%, which was very good.

At 15:30 on the afternoon of July 20, 2008, the warm-up match between the Chinese Olympic team and the Australian Olympic team officially started at the Changchun Olympic Sports Center.

Australia was considered to be against the Chinese team.

In the top 20 group match of the World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team and Australia were divided into Group A together. In the top ten match, the two teams were divided into one group again. Now the U23 Olympic teams of the two countries are facing each other again.

Although it is only a warm-up match, this match is very important for both sides.

The Olympics are getting closer and closer. Both sides have to adjust their status, make final preparations for the Olympics, and select the final 18-man roster based on this.

Moreover, for the players of the Chinese Olympic team, the head coach had just been changed, and the player that Dui liked before, Yin Tiesheng, might not be liked by him. Everyone needs to fight for the final list of the Olympics, or even the starting list.

Therefore, although this game is nominally just a warm-up match, it is very valuable and is no worse than the real Olympic qualifying match.

At this time, Australia's FIFA ranking is 40th in the world and 3rd in Asia, while the FIFA ranking of the Chinese team is 83rd in the world and 11th in Asia, with a big gap.

Reflected in the strength of the two Olympic teams, if Jiang Xiaolin is removed, Australia is definitely stronger than the Chinese team.

But with Jiang Xiaolin, and playing at home, it is entirely possible for the Chinese team to win this warm-up match.

The scandal-ridden Dujkovic was dismissed, and the fans no longer booed the head coach. Everyone worked together to cheer for the Olympic team, hoping that the Olympic team would perform well at home and defeat the visiting Australian Olympic team.

The Olympic team lived up to expectations and took the upper hand from the beginning of the game.

It was mainly Jiang Xiaolin who pushed Australia's defense back, making it feel like the Chinese team was pressing Australia.

Jiang Xiaolin's hat tricks in the first two friendly matches and three consecutive World Cup qualifiers really made the opponent alert.

Therefore, Australia played more cautiously after the start of the game, with a sense of shrinking and playing defensive counterattacks, so the scene looked like the Chinese team was pressing Australia's half.

But the Chinese team's offensive did not result in a goal, because Australia's defense was very cautious and layered.

Not only was there someone around Jiang Xiaolin who was always close to him and helping him, but other Chinese players were also tightly guarded by Australia and could not threaten Australia's penalty area and goal.

In the 2nd minute, Jiang Xiaolin's long shot from outside the penalty area was blocked by the opponent's back midfielder and went over the crossbar.

In the 4th minute, Hao JunMin's cross from the side was headed out of the penalty area by the opponent's central defender.

While defending well, Australia did not give up the attack. They would counterattack if they had the chance.

In the 7th minute, Australia launched a counterattack from the right, but unfortunately the player holding the ball passed the ball a second late after halftime, causing Australian striker Bridge, who rushed behind the Chinese team's defense line, to be offside, and the counterattack failed.

Just 3 minutes later, Australia made another long pass counterattack. This time Bridge successfully countered the offside and got the ball behind Li Weifeng, Feng Xiaoting and others.

Fortunately, goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong attacked in time and caught Bridge's slightly larger ball in the penalty area.

Bridge missed the single shot and was very upset, but unfortunately there is no regret medicine in the world.

Soon, Australia paid the price for not cherishing the opportunity to score a goal.

In the 14th minute, winger Cui Peng broke through the side and created a free kick.

The free kick was in a relatively biased position and far from the goal, more than 30 meters away. Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin did not take the penalty kick, but asked Cui Peng to take a tactical free kick and hoist the ball into the penalty area for everyone to compete for the header.

This time Jiang Xiaolin did not waste the opportunity.

With his strong body and the ability to run without the ball and grab points, Jiang Xiaolin was the first to see the path and landing point of Cui Peng's ball, and then took the lead to occupy the position, jumped up in the penalty area, and headed the ball to the far corner of the goal.

Although someone was pulling him, Jiang Xiaolin's strong physical attributes still allowed him to stabilize his body in the air and complete the header before being pulled to the ground.

However, the ball had been headed to the far corner of the goal by his full header technique.

The Australian goalkeeper Verafei, who was guarding the near corner of the goal, tried his best to rush to the far corner, but the height was not enough, and in the end he could only watch the ball fly into the goal from above him along the bottom edge of the crossbar.

Jiang Xiaolin scored the first goal for the Chinese team, and the Chinese team led Australia 1-0.

This opponent is very different from Vietnam and Malaysia.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin could not be calm this time, but ran wildly on the court to celebrate, and the fans in the stands also applauded and cheered to celebrate this goal.

The teammates also surrounded Jiang Xiaolin and celebrated with him. Everyone celebrated for more than 20 seconds before returning to their own half and letting Australia kick the ball from the center circle.

However, apart from Jiang Xiaolin, the strength of the Chinese Olympic team has always been somewhat different from that of Australia.

Especially in terms of personal ability, the gap between the Chinese Olympic team and Australia is even more obvious.

In the 21st minute, the front midfielder Wang Yongpo originally wanted to pass the ball to Jiang Xiaolin, but he made a mistake in passing the ball under the pressure of the opponent's back midfielder and passed the ball crookedly.

The ball was intercepted by the opponent's defender midway, and Jiang Xiaolin could only sigh in despair.

Moreover, Australia, which had grabbed the ball, immediately launched a quick counterattack, and hit the front court with three passes and two falls, and then forward Troysi made a long shot at the top of the penalty area.

This shot was of high quality, with power, speed, and angle, and it was basically heading straight for the dead corner.

Although Qiu Shengjiong tried his best, he still missed the ball by a hair's breadth, and in the end he could only watch the ball fly into the goal after rubbing the post.

Australia scored the equalizer with its strong strength, and the score between the two sides became 1-1, which seemed quite evenly matched.

Afterwards, the two sides fell into a tug-of-war.

Although the Chinese team had Jiang Xiaolin, Jiang Xiaolin could not get the ball from the backcourt and break through the Australian defense alone.

And relying on teammates to pass the ball and assist, teammates' abilities were not up to par, and mistakes were frequent under the pressure of the tall and strong Australian players, making it difficult to accurately send the ball to Jiang Xiaolin's feet.

Australia was not having an easy time either. Although they were slightly stronger in the midfield and backcourt than the Chinese team, under the threat of Jiang Xiaolin, the backcourt players did not dare to press forward to assist, and the frontcourt lacked a striker like Jiang Xiaolin who could make the final decision and had a high goal efficiency.

Therefore, even if they got a chance to shoot, it was difficult to get the ball into the Chinese team's goal.

After scoring the equalizing goal, Australia had three shooting opportunities near the Chinese team's penalty area, and in the end, two of them missed the target, one missed the post, and not even once hit the goal frame.

It can be seen how rare a striker like Jiang Xiaolin is!
