Football: the history of the first ball

Manchester City played a good game in the first league game after Xiao Jian left.

Their quicksilver attack made the opponent unable to guard against it. All five players scored goals and beat Burnmouth 5:1.

But the second league game was tied by Villa.

Villa used unyielding defense to misfire Manchester City's forward line.

They shot 0 times and scored [-] goals. Gua Shuai outside the court was so anxious that he jumped again and again.

However, in the Champions League, they once again defeated the Copenhagen team in the fairy tale country at home by one goal.

This game shows that Manchester City's midfield control is strong, but the shooting accuracy is not enough, and good opportunities are repeatedly lost.

This made Gua Shuai very angry. He has used all available forwards in turn. I have to say that the thickness of the forward's bench is too bad.

However, Xiao Jian was injured and retired. Although Harland promised to come, he had to wait for the transfer window to open.

What made Guashuai most angry was that in the fourth league game, in this game against Arsenal, Manchester City lost 1:3 to the Gunners in a disgraceful away game, and Henry scored two dollars.

In this game, if it weren't for Lisk's outstanding performance, the Gunners would have scored five goals against Manchester City.

The Gunners played impeccably in this game, but Manchester City's offensive line was misfired.

The eye-catching headline of the post-match ball newspaper: "Without Xiao Jian, the Manchester City dynasty is just a dynasty of paper." "Won the recognition and praise of countless fans.

Guashuai was angry.

It's not healthy for a team to just wait for a superstar to return to win.This also made him determined to introduce stars to strengthen the bench.

During the next transfer window, he will spend a lot of money to bring in many big-name players.

The boss in the Middle East was very generous and did not hesitate to let Gua Shuai feel at ease to introduce, money is not a problem.

And Xiao Jian's one-month injury holiday has arrived, and it also ushered in the second Asian qualifier for the Olympic Games, the away game between Huaxia National Olympic Team and Yemen National Olympic Team.

Playing against a weak Asian football country like Yemen, the appeal of this game is no less attractive than the game against the Yue Guo team. This is because the Huaxia National Team has encountered the Irbid tragedy.

In 1993, the national football team led by the head coach of the national football team "Schrapner" was confident that it would enter the World Cup in the United States.

Speaking of Schlapner, this person was very popular in China at the time.

One year, he was invited to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, and he was mentioned in the cross talk "Auction" between Niu Niu and Feng Gong.

At the same time, Niu Niu auctioned a white hair on Mr. Schlapner's head on the spot.Feng Gong, who is a good partner, made a very funny gag, calling Mr. Schlapner's behavior of helping Chinese football "the spirit of a monk who came from afar."

Uncle Shi also left many classic quotations in China.

First of all, he emphasized that Huaxia players must have a "leopard spirit."

He believes that what the Huaxia team lacks most is energy.

The reason why the Huaxia team is always unable to stand up at critical moments is that the players lack the "leopard spirit" to move forward bravely.

Of course, this formulation was repeatedly emphasized by some coaches later, but it was just another way of saying it.

When Zhu Guanghu coached the national team, he proposed to have "mad dog spirit", which actually means the same thing as "leopard spirit".

At that time, the players of the Huaxia team were unreasonable when handling the ball, and sometimes hesitated, unable to make the best pass selection.

Schlappner was very distressed by this, and later he uttered a famous saying: "If you don't know where to kick on the field, kick into the opponent's goal."

This sentence was regarded as a classic and became one of the unforgettable "quotations" in the history of Chinese football.

Before the game against Yemen, Schlapner was assigned to room 519 of the hotel.Everyone advised him not to live in this room.

Because "5" was Zeng Xuelin's World Cup qualifier, the national team lost to Hong Kong, which caused fan riots.

That day was called the Huaxia Football 5.19 tragedy.

Everyone thinks this number is unlucky and hopes that the head coach can change the room.

But Schlapner doesn't believe in evil, he thinks these things are superstitions.

For the opponent Yemen, Schlapner didn't take it seriously at all: "Yemen is just a small snake, we can cut it off with a slight movement!"

The process of the game was different from everyone's expectations. The Chinese team firmly controlled the situation on the field, but they just couldn't score.However, the little snake of the Yemen team took a bite out of the national football team at a seemingly bad opportunity.

The wild goal team's goal also had a lot of luck: their long-distance free kick chance hit the goalpost, and then bounced off the arm of goalkeeper Xu Tao and bounced into the goal.

The Huaxia team completed 26 shots, but without a single goal, the Yemen team seized the only chance.

Although the national football team has repeatedly lost in the World Cup qualifiers before, it is not enough to lose to such a low-level team.

Now even a "little snake" like Yemen loses, which makes Huaxia fans very angry.

It was after losing this game that the Huaxia team was surpassed by the Iraqi team and was eliminated sadly.

When the national football team once again lost in the World Cup qualifiers, Schlappner did not dismiss get out of class immediately, but was suspended and became a technical consultant.

The former "Uncle Shi" was called an "international liar" by fans at this time, and he was attacked and ridiculed in various ways.

After the 1994 Asian Games, Schlapner left China.

Wang Junsheng, the full-time vice chairman of the Chinese Football Association at the time, recalled: "Without the Irbid tragedy, there would be no catalyst for the professionalization of Chinese football."

It is true that the Irbid tragedy has greatly touched the Chinese football world.One year later, Huaxia football has moved towards the road of professionalization, saying goodbye to the era of professional system.

This period of history is exactly the same as the previous life, so this game has aroused the attention of all fans, and Xiao Jian is also very clear about this period of history.

Especially next year's Asian Cup in China will be expanded to 24 teams, and the Yemen national team seized the opportunity to eliminate the rival Tajik national football team and enter the Asian Cup, which shows that their football level has improved compared to 1993.

Because of the war in Yemen, they set up their home court in Doha, Qatar.

In order to gain everyone's attention, the media began to frequently use eye-catching headlines to help young fans popularize knowledge of a historical tragedy.

Will the Irbid tragedy 28 years ago happen in Doha? "

"28 years later, the national football team once again blocked Doha"

"Wild Gate is a scar on the heart that fans don't want to touch. "

"Will the little snake of Yemen bite the Huaxia National Olympics again?" "

……

And there is another eye-catching news in this game.

Because Sun Xiang wanted to participate in the UEFA Champions League, the Vienna team that rented him refused to let him go, but the Olympic team quickly recruited the Tibetan Dorji Gele.

And Dojigrad's team turned out to be Juventus.

This news aroused the curiosity of the Chinese media and the ecstasy of the fans.

Another Chinese player from the five major leagues has been selected for the Olympic team, but no one knew about this Dorjigrad in the past.

The omnipotent media finally found out that Dorjigrad was still the main player of the Tibetan plateau provincial team a month ago, and he had just transferred to Juventus.

Moreover, a short video clip of Xiao Jian and Dojigrad's training on the plateau in the Tibetan area was posted on the Internet by the teenagers in the village of Dojigrad. This video, which is only about 20 seconds long, has more than [-] million hits.

It turned out that Xiao Jian was standing behind Dojigrad, which aroused the fans' expectations even more.

Another piece of good news is that Xiao Jian is back from injury. When the starting list came out, the fans were relieved that Xiao Jian was indeed on the list.

And Doggie also appeared in the starting list.
