Football: The immortal legend on the green field

Looking at the team members in front of them with injuries of varying degrees, some of them still had expressions of dissatisfaction on their faces.

Yang Yimin was so angry that his hands were shaking: "You...you guys, this is outrageous! Just a few days after joining the National Youth Team, you're already fighting! What do you think this place is? Now..."

Ali Han stopped Yang Yimin and said, "Go back to bed now. We will have a meeting tomorrow morning, so go and have some rest. Oh, and by the way," he said gloomily, "no one is allowed to tell anyone about what happened tonight. Otherwise, whoever tells anyone will be kicked out!"

Many reporters crowded at the entrance of Xianghe Base, hoping to get information about the National Youth Team's training sessions. They wanted to see what kind of sparks the old and new National Youth Teams could create. They would be best off having a fight, so that these days would not be in vain. Little did they know that the fight had already broken out last night.

However, all these reporters were stopped by the Football Association press officer Dong Jin at the door: "This is a closed training. Without the instructions of the superiors, no reporters will be accepted for interviews."

"What the hell! The closed training camps of the national youth team were never like this before!"

"There has to be a press conference, right?"

"The National Youth Team has no plans to arrange a press conference."

Dong Jin explained: "You are invited to attend the first plenary meeting of the National Youth Team. Why hold a press conference? You can come back to observe the internal training match in three days. By then, we will have the news materials you need..."

"What? Reporters have the right to know about the national youth team's training and tell the public!" someone protested loudly.

Dong Jin was in an especially good mood this time. He did not use security to call for help. He just stood in front of the reporters. Whenever a reporter asked a question, he would answer with this sentence: "Sorry, this is an order from my superiors!"

This is an instruction from my superiors...

Forty-five members of the National Youth Team were sitting in the meeting room. Some of them were silent, some were whispering, and some were gloating. They had originally agreed to train normally this morning, but who would have thought that a fight last night changed the original plan. Now they were sitting in the meeting room waiting to be trained.

Yang Yimin did not come because he really could not stand the foreigner Ali Han. He felt that since this Dutchman had the support of Tan Jing, he would not listen to a word he said, and his opinions were always ruthlessly pushed back.

The arrival of Gao Haiyang and Ali Han calmed the players down, but surprisingly, Gao Haiyang did not ask the players involved in the fight to reflect on their actions or announce any punishment clauses. He simply announced a few simple "management methods": "I know that everyone comes from all over the country, has different backgrounds, and speaks different dialects. This will not only cause misunderstandings among you, but also be difficult to manage."

"So I asked everyone to use Mandarin uniformly in the team."

"Also, since the dormitories are concentrated in one building, I hope that everyone will not affect others when they are entertaining themselves. Okay, now let's go to the training ground and start training!"

The team leader's words once again surprised the team members. They had thought it would be a profound criticism and self-criticism meeting, but they did not expect that in less than ten minutes, Gao Haiyang announced the end of the meeting and went to training!

Some people stood up and walked out, and then more people stood up and left the meeting room. Only Feng Xiaoting looked back at Shen Bin, who had a half-smile on his face, in confusion as he left.

Gao Haiyang had just returned from the first team. He stood on the sidelines of the second team's training ground, with his hands on the pergola looking at the sky. It was past ten in the morning and the temperature was already a little high. Has summer arrived early in Beijing?

Looking at the sidelines again, Ali Han and Shen Bin were looking at the field. On the field, except for Shen Bin standing on the sidelines, the other 11 players were divided into two teams and fighting hard.

While Shen Bin and Ali Han were communicating with each other, their assistant Feng Wiltalin was taking their statements.

It looks like they are matching up the players who will appear in three days.

At 6:14 p.m. on June , this training match between the National Youth Team One and the National Youth Team Two was not open to fans, but the more than people sitting in the stands were basically media reporters from all over the country.

In addition to them, to everyone's surprise, Wu Shaozu, director of the State Sports Commission, actually came to the scene. Director Wu was accompanied by two giants of the Football Association, Party Secretary and Chairman of the Football Association Tan Jing and full-time Vice Chairman Xia Yalong. Sitting on the side, senior vice chairmen Nan Yong and Yang Yimin were whispering to each other.

In addition to the above five leaders, there are office director Liu Ran, Wei Shaohui who is responsible for youth training and refereeing, Li Dongshen who is responsible for discipline inspection, ** An who is responsible for women's football, and Ma Qi who is in charge of the technical department. Almost all the middle-level and above leaders of the Football Association came to the scene to watch the game, which not only caused a sensation in the Xianghe base, but also caused a sensation in the Chinese football circle.

The referee was the famous whistle Lu Jun. Although Lu Jun was Nan Yong's man, Nan Yong and Yang Yimin did not make any special instructions to Lu Jun in advance, because he, like everyone else, did not think that the first team would lose. Although there were four returnees in the second team, they had been working in football for many years and knew that football was a sport for 11 people. Three or four outstanding players were not enough to change the disadvantages of the second team's lack of tacit understanding and low ability.

They always believed that Shen Bin was just a product of media hype. If others still had doubts, then Nan Yong could undoubtedly be sure of this, because Shen Bin's rise to fame was his masterpiece two years ago. That year was the National U17 League held in Jinling two years ago. Shen Bin was the product of his and CCTV's deification.

When Lu Jun and two linesmen led the players from both teams into the field, reporters on the sidelines began to discuss the situation because a key figure was missing from the so-called National Youth Team B lineup. The much-anticipated Shen Bin did not appear in the National Youth Team B lineup.

Yang Yimin on the sidelines sneered, "It seems that Mr. Arihan is too confident! He may think that the players I selected are not worthy of his trump card. I guess the difference in this game will be at least three goals."

Nan Yongdao did not respond verbally, but he was disdainful of Gao Haiyang and Ali Han in his heart.

Tan Jing gave Liu Ran, who was sitting on the side, a questioning look, and Liu Ran also shook his head in confusion at Tan Jing.

The live commentator began to announce the starting lineups of both teams. National Youth Team II: No. 1 goalkeeper Qiu Shengjun, from Shanghai Shenhua Youth Team.

The back line from left to right: No. 2 Tan Wangsong, No. 2 Wan Houliang, No. 4 Lu Jianjun, and No. 5 Zhang Fanlin.

中场：双后腰6号白岳峰、8号蒂奥特，左前卫9号郝俊闵、右前卫11号陈韬、前腰10号邓桌翔。

Forward: No. 9 Jiang Ning.

We saw that the National Youth Team B chose the 4-5-1 formation that Haarlem had used before, and the defensive midfielders were Tiote from Haarlem and Bai Yuefeng, a Korean athlete from Yanbian. They did not send Shen Bin to play. We did not receive any news of Shen Bin's injury before the game. I don't know what Ali Han was thinking. Did he want to use Shen Bin as a surprise weapon?

National Youth Team goalkeeper No. 1 Zhang Lei.

The back line from left to right: No. 18 Zhao Ming, No. 2 Feng Xiaoting, No. 4 Fan Weiwei.

中场：双后腰，5号王洪亮、16号卢林、左边前卫8号周海宾、7号右边前卫崔鹏、10号前腰兆旭日。

Forwards: No. 9 Dong Fangzhuo, No. 11 Gao Lin.
