In the post-game selection, Ding Huaiyi was unanimously selected as the best player of the game, and in the reporter's interview with Zhang Sheng, Zhang Sheng was very modest, he said: "Ding Huaiyi's performance is very good, but his body and physical fitness still have very big shortcomings, I hope you media will also be merciful, don't brag him too much, this is not suitable for the growth of young players."

However, when the reporter asked Popovich, he congratulated the Longteng team on the victory very generously, and at the same time praised Ding Huaiyi: "The team with the better performance won the victory, congratulations to the Longteng team, but we will also work hard, failure is not the end of the world, we believe we still have a chance to qualify." Ding Huaiyi is such a good player, he reminds me of Xiao Luo, he will become a superstar. ”

At the banquet for Pei Lan at the Longteng Club after the game, Pei Lan also asked Ding Huaiyi: "Has this player's physical fitness always been so poor?"

Zhang Sheng replied in the affirmative: "Yes, indeed." ”

Then Zhang Sheng introduced Ding Huaiyi's specific situation in detail, and heard that this player was really as written in the information that he was born as a wild ball player, or he only started to contact football at the age of 14, Peilan also expressed a regretful attitude: "It's a pity, if he had been exposed to football earlier, he would have been the kind of player who amazed fans all over the world." ”

As a long-term youth veteran, Perrin is well aware of the importance of professional training as a child and teenager as a player, but he still hopes for Zhang Sheng: "I think Ding can still be selected for the national team, he can play a role in changing the situation on the field at special times, what do you think, Coach Zhang?"

In fact, Zhang Sheng is not very willing to let Ding Huaiyi go to the national team now, after all, with his physical condition, if he has to play in the national team while taking into account the league and the AFC Champions League, his physical fitness is completely impossible to withstand, which will not only make Ding Huaiyi have no good performance in the league, the AFC Champions League and the national team, but also with Ding Huaiyi's style of play, it is also very likely that he will be forced to play due to lack of physical fitness and lead to injury.

In the face of Zhang Sheng's hesitation, Pei Lan also probably knew Zhang Sheng's thoughts, and he said: "If Ding Huaiyi's physical fitness is problematic, I will communicate with you and will not forcibly summon him into the national team." ”

Hearing Pei Lan's assurance, Zhang Sheng was embarrassed to refuse again, he could only nod and say: "That's okay, but we will provide Ding Huaiyi's physical data to the national team, so that the national team can also have its own judgment." ”

Hearing Zhang Sheng's promise, Pei Lan nodded happily and said, "That's really good." In fact, many other players in the Longteng team also performed very well in this game, and I think they also have the quality to be selected for the national team. ”

Zhang Sheng asked casually, "Which ones?"

Pei Lan replied very seriously: "I think Lin Feng, Lu Zhihui, Zhou Zhou and Shu Jun all have such strength. ”

Hearing Peilan's roll call, Zhang Sheng also nodded and said: "I also think they have the strength to be selected for the national team, if you feel that it is necessary, you can send them to the national team at the appropriate time." ”

Zhang Sheng's words made Pei Lan very excited, because if he got Zhang Sheng's support, he could form his own team, and he didn't have to rely too much on the old international players, which could greatly increase his voice in the team.

Pei Lan excitedly Zhang Sheng said: "Thank you so much for your support, Coach Zhang, as long as they can perform well in the national team, I will reuse them." ”

In the face of Peilan's blatant statement, Zhang Sheng didn't want his players to be involved in the conflict of interests of the national team, his players were very powerful, and there was no need to make it look ugly, Zhang Sheng said very calmly: "Then thank you Mr. Peilan." However, you can also rest assured that our Longteng Club has issued regulations on the management of international players before, and our attitude is also very clear, as long as we can play for the country and add glory to the country, we will reward the international players of our club, and if they perform badly, our club will also punish them. ”

Hearing Zhang Sheng's words, Pei Lan also knew that Zhang Sheng was not very good at waving the flag for himself, which was a little regrettable.

After bidding farewell to Peilan, Zhang Sheng specifically asked the team doctor and physical fitness coach about Ding Huaiyi's physical condition, and they gave a clear answer, saying: "His current physical condition and physical condition are not very suitable for continuing to participate in the game, and it is best to let him rest in the next game." ”

Faced with this situation, Zhang Sheng can only let Ding Huaiyi rest, but he still has to go to Changchun with the team, because after playing an away game with Changchun Yatai on March 15, the Longteng team will go to South Korea on March 19 to challenge Ulsan Hyundai away, which means that the Longteng team will be another two-game away schedule. Since the beginning of the season, the Longteng team has faced two consecutive away fixtures, and both of them are away from home in the league and away from the AFC Champions League, which has very high requirements for the physical fitness of the Longteng players and the bench thickness of the Longteng team itself.

In fact, as early as before the season, at the meeting of the Football Association, the Longteng Club and the Football Association had negotiated, hoping not to put the away of the AFC Champions League and the away of the league together, but unfortunately the Football Association did not agree to the request of the Longteng Club. This is also related to the fact that Longteng Club now has no international players, and the head coach often bombards the team of the Football Association, and the Football Association obviously does not give a good face. It can only be said that the influence of the Longteng team in China is too low now.

Since he has such a schedule, Zhang Sheng can only let Ding Huaiyi act with the team, but he can't join the squad for the next game for the time being, and he is still very likely to play in South Korea.

The next day after the game, the Longteng team flew to Changchun collectively, from the temperature has begun to warm up in Jiangcheng to Changchun, which is still below zero, the impact of this team of players is not small, not to mention that it will take nearly 3 hours to fly from Jiangcheng to Changchun, it can be said that the Longteng team will have to overcome a lot of difficulties in this game.

Fortunately, the Dragons have done a very good job of physical preparation before the season, and this is also the beginning of the season, after the game against Western Sydney Wanderers, most of the players' fitness can barely support.

When the Longteng team went to Changchun Yatai's home stadium Changchun Jingkai Stadium to do field adaptation training, they were even more stunned, a large area of the stadium was all dry yellow, there was no green in the center, and the penalty area was even more gravel and mud.

It's not a matter of a day or two for the Chinese Super League club to be complained about because of the venue.

In fact, for turf, the Super League has clear regulations, in the Super League access system for the stadium standard turf has the following requirements: flat, intact, lush natural turf, carefully trimmed, grass height of 3-4 cm, green period from mid-March to the end of November. But such regulations are useless for many teams, not only Changchun Yatai, Henan Jianye, Chongqing Lifan has also been complained about by the outside world because of the super poor venue, and even the midfield hegemon such as Guangzhou Evergrande has been repeatedly questioned by the outside world because of the drainage and quality of the turf.

Changchun Yatai's turf even the team's own coaches and players are complaining. For example, Song Zhenyu, the goalkeeper of the Changchun team, is also very annoyed by such a venue: "The worst piece is the forbidden area, we usually don't dare to wear spikes in training, only dare to wear flat shoes, because it is too bad, and the ground is hard and boardy, and it hurts to fall." "Playing and training on such a field, the most disadvantaged is actually the Changchun team members. "This kind of field, because it is hard, there is no rain, there is no grass protection, it is particularly harmful to athletes' ankles, and the chance of falling down is also very large. ”

The objective reason for the turf problem in Changchun Yatai is because of natural conditions. Changchun, located in the northeast, at the beginning of the annual league and before the end, because of the season and climate, the grass does not turn green, the weather is cold, and the growth is slow, there is no way. Towards the end of the league, it was cold again, there was snow again, and there was no way.

The reason for this is mainly two aspects, one is the backwardness of domestic football infrastructure. In most clubs in Europe, either winter and summer turf is used, or underfloor heating is simply laid to protect the turf. The vast majority of football stadiums in China do not have such conditions.

The second is the issue of money. The price of turf varies greatly depending on the species. The value of turf and labor costs of some good varieties of turf are as high as more than 100 yuan per square meter, while the price of ordinary turf planting is about 30-40 yuan per square meter. A standard course, plus some extension areas outside the line of the court, the entire area that needs to be laid with turf is close to 10,000 square meters. If all imported turf is planted, the cost is as high as more than 1 million yuan, and the price of ordinary turf is about 400,000 yuan. And that's not even counting the annual maintenance costs.

The cost of maintaining turf is dynamic, proportional to the frequency of use of the course, but the maintenance cost of different turf is also different, in line with the regulations of the Super League, the maintenance cost of turf is 200,000 yuan, which is more normal, if the specifications are higher, it is almost 30 to 400,000 yuan.

Of course, the biggest problem is the ownership of the venue. Because of some domestic policies, most of the venues used by clubs do not belong to the clubs themselves, and everyone rents government venues, so who will pay for the maintenance fees, and whether it is cost-effective after it is out is a problem.

For example, Changchun Yatai is like this, they think that when they are not in the league period, the turf should not be responsible for them, so they did not maintain the turf normally after the end of last season, while the Changchun Jingkai Stadium believes that the club should be responsible for the stadium, they only collect rent, and have no obligation to maintain the turf.

Not only Changchun Yatai is so, because of the ownership and unwilling to spend a lot of money includes both poor clubs like Liaoning Hongyun, but also rich clubs such as Guangzhou Evergrande, which leads to the turf of domestic clubs is very poor, so that in 2013, when the AFC conducted a comprehensive inspection of the Chinese Super League stadium, only 6 of the 16 stadiums were qualified.
