The Longteng team returned to Jiangcheng with a relaxed attitude of victory, Zhang Sheng was very happy to give the players a day off, the Longteng team gathered in advance of other Super League teams, and most of the players were in the national team, the National Olympic team, U19, U16 to participate in the game, basically no time to rest, now it is rare to meet the schedule of a game a week, Zhang Sheng also took the opportunity to give them a proper holiday to rest and rest.

The well-rested Longteng team next faced the visiting Shanghai Greenland Shenhua at home.

Shanghai Shenhua should be said to be a team that has a lot of contact with the Longteng Club, since the year before last in the Longteng team to dig Xu Di and Sun Yu, they seem to have tasted the sweetness, and this season they bought Wen Kai in the past, which is the same as their history of staring at Henan Jianye to poach people. However, compared to the people who bought from Henan Jianye, they didn't perform any differently, and the people who bought from the Longteng team helped them a lot.

Of course, it's one thing to have a good relationship with someone, but it's another thing when it comes to the competition.

After the start of the game, the Longteng team took advantage of the home advantage to launch attacks again and again, Shanghai Shenhua could only be forced to defend in the backfield, Shenhua's only few counterattacks were relying on Moreno to find foreign strikers Enrique and Cahill from the backfield, but whether Enrique or Cahill, they are not the kind of counterattacking players with super fast frontcourt, they are more players who play teamwork, so Shenhua's counterattack is not too threatening.

On the contrary, the two foreign aides in the front field of the Longteng team and the domestic attack group led by Nie Jiang are very strong, and Sun Yu, the former Longteng player of the Shenhua team, ran desperately in the midfield to make their weak middle class A backline not make a big mistake, and at the same time the hidden danger left is that Sun Yu ate a yellow card in the first half.

In the first half, Shanghai Shenhua was able to keep the score at 0:0, and after the second half, their defense finally collapsed, and the yellow card on Sun Yu made him dare not make a big foul move, and the Longteng team used the skillful cooperation of several players in the front court to break through Shenhua's defense, and Pato's goal rewrote the score to 1:0.

Shenhua, who was breached by the goal, seemed to be deflated, and was continuously breached by the Longteng team, first Pato scored twice, and then Nie Jiang added the icing on the cake to expand the score to 3:0.

Shenhua only improved slightly in attack after the Dragons brought on a large number of young players, and Cahill saved some face with his superhuman header before the break, but it was to no avail.

Longteng won 3:1 at home to Shanghai Shenhua, won two consecutive victories, and occupied the first place at the top of the table with a goal difference, and the team's attacking power and good form made other Chinese Super League teams fearful.

Corresponding to the performance of Guangzhou Evergrande, the performance of the Chinese Super League overlord on the field is not convincing, although they won 1-2 away from the promoted horse Chongqing Lifan, but the number of shots in the whole game is not as many as the opponent, the corner kick is 0-4 behind all-round and less than the opponent in the key data of attacking the 30-meter area of the front, the team that can completely control the rhythm of the game has disappeared.

The end of this game of the Longteng team will usher in an AFC Champions League game next, but unfortunately this game Longteng team will have a number of players absent, because the second U22 Asian Cup qualifiers, that is, the Rio Olympics qualifiers Asian qualifiers will start at the end of March, the Chinese Football Association has issued a call-up order, including Xiao Yunfan, Yao Tian, Zhu Xuhe, Xiong Jian, Zou Weijia, Du Zhenyu A number of Longteng team players are on the list.

In addition, the Chinese Football Association has previously transferred U16 and U19 players to participate in the national team competition, and now the Longteng team can only just gather the 18-man squad, which is still the result of the Longteng team after arguing with reason, so that many players did not go to the national team at all levels to report, otherwise they can only draw those players who have no ability to play from the reserve team to fill the number.

This season, due to the change in the policy of the Chinese Football Association, players who have reached the age of 16 can sign professional contracts, in order to prevent the loss of players, and in order to allow them to get in touch with professional games earlier, the Longteng team has signed professional contracts with all the players who have been called up to 16 years old, and many players have been loaned to the Chinese League to play games.

So this season, the strength of the reserve team of the Longteng team has dropped very much, some players transferred away at the beginning of the season, and after Nie Jiang was transferred to the first team, the attack power was greatly reduced, especially during this time, several summoned players were transferred away, and the game was very difficult, and Zhang Sheng had to use the points to summon players again before the game.

For the player position called this time, Zhang Sheng chose the striker.

Now the team's forward position personnel reserve is not enough, Nie Jiang is the focus of Zhang Sheng's training, but he will definitely go to Europe to play after two or three seasons, although Zou Weijia is gradually very familiar, but his characteristics are not too in line with the current Zhang Sheng's tactical development trend, sooner or later he will have to leave the team, Tang Jin's development prospects are better, but he is too young, so it is imperative to summon a 15-17-year-old striker who meets his tactics to reserve.

Soon the system gives the player options:

"A point-grabbing striker, maybe you can't see him for dozens of minutes on the field, but when he appears in the penalty area, you are late, his shooting skills are first-class, he can always send the ball into the net in various ways, of course, behind the goal is his never-ending running, his weakness is obvious, if you want to use him as the fulcrum of the frontcourt, a slightly thin body makes him suffer a lot in the confrontation, if you want him to do a counter-arrow, his speed of long-distance running is not enough, his advantage is always in the sudden explosion of 3-5 meters。 "Stats/Potentials: 50/96.

'A very average striker, he is diligent on the pitch, he has a lot of range, he can fight in the box, he can grab points, he can get out of the box and play with his team-mates, and if necessary, he will run into the midfield to help his team-mates defend. However, the all-round also represents his mediocrity, if he is against an opponent who is not very strong, he will be a very dazzling player on the field, if the average strength of the opponent is higher than his own side, then he will do nothing on the field. But every team needs a role player like that, doesn't it?" Stats/Potentials: 50/96.

Seeing these two players, Zhang Sheng probably knows their characteristics, one of them is a strengthened version of Deng Chaoqun before, and the other is a strengthened version of Wen Kai.

Zhang Sheng, who used Deng Chaoqun and Wen Kai as the main striker, soon had a choice - the second player.

The first player is suitable for the tactics of sending a cross down or a 45-degree diagonal ball into the penalty area to grab a point, while the second player is suitable for the kind of tactics that require teamwork, and Zhang Sheng's tactics will definitely tend to the second type in the future.

Besides, the weakness of the second player is really not a weakness for the Longteng team, and now the overall strength of the Longteng team should be one of the best in the Chinese Super League and Asian professional clubs, and the usual opponents are also these opponents, so his shortcomings are not very big, at least at the Asian level is completely enough, of course, it is a little difficult for him to stay in the foreign world.

After this call, the player came quickly, and the day before the match with the AFC Champions League opponent, he appeared in front of Zhang Sheng, this time recommended to Zhang Sheng by the Hubei Provincial Football Association.

In recent years, Zhang Sheng has given the Hubei Provincial Football Association a lot of face, and has sent a lot of players to the Chinese national teams at all levels, and the cooperation between the Hubei Provincial Football Association and Longteng Club is also very pleasant.

When Ding Kun, the general manager of the club, was negotiating with the Hubei Provincial Football Association about the selection of players, Ding Kun poured bitter water on the other party: "Our club's talent training is good now, but your transfer is too frequent, and the first team has fewer injuries now, and we can still top the top." If you look at our development team, it's all a bunch of 16 or 7 year olds who play and the rest are players who don't want other teams. If it weren't for the policy, we would have sent the U19s to play in the reserves. ”

The people of the Hubei Provincial Football Association are quite empathetic this time, and the leader who is responsible for negotiating with the Longteng Club took the initiative to send talents to the Longteng Football School: "We understand your situation, and we have helped us a lot in the past few years with our work, and we also know that your current situation is more difficult, and it is also the responsibility of our Football Association to support the development of the club." ”

The next leader's words made Ding Kun very happy: "We are just talking about it, so let's do it, there are still a lot of good seedlings in our provincial echelon, you see which position you are short of, we will recommend and recommend to you, I'm afraid that your club will look down on our players." ”

Of course, Ding Kun would not refuse such kindness, he hurriedly said: "You have spoken, how can we refuse." In the past few years, under the leadership of the Football Association, there have been a lot of good seedlings in our Hubei Province, and people outside are staring at it. It's great news that this is an opportunity. ”

Next, the Hubei Provincial Football Association provided a list of three players, and there were also some of their usual training and game materials for the Longteng Club to choose, and when their information was sent to Zhang Sheng, Zhang Sheng saw a very similar forward player provided by the system.

This player's name is Wu Qingmin, who has just turned 17 years old this year, and is the main striker of the U17 echelon in Hubei Province, which is a team prepared for the 2017 National Games.

After consulting the scouting department, soon the club's scouting department also sent Wu Qingmin's information, obviously the club has already known about this player, and has also established a file for him, after the club's scouts have been observing for a long time, his characteristics are exactly the same as the system says.

In the end, Zhang Sheng let the football school spend 30w of training fees to buy it out, and sorted out his affiliation to prevent future troubles, but according to the agreement with the Hubei Provincial Football Association, this player will represent the National Games team of the Hubei Provincial Football Association to participate in the National Games in 2017, which is a win-win choice.

After a successful call-up, the Dragons began to prepare for the AFC Champions League, which was played against K-League opponents Seongnam FC.

Seongnam FC is a team that has fallen from the giants. Its predecessor, Seongnam Ilhwa, was once the team with the best record in the K-League, having won the K-League championship six times, and their record of three consecutive championships has not been broken by any K-League team now, and they have also won the AFC Champions League twice, and South Korea's most representative star Park Ji-sung came from this club.

But soon the team ushered in a low period, after the original investors lost interest in football in 2013, the team lacked funds, even survival was a big problem, and a football dynasty collapsed in an instant. Seongnam kept the team as a government asset, and the mayor became the de facto legal person of the club, and finding sponsorship for the team every year became a difficult task for the team to overcome.

Seongnam FC will fall to their lowest point in history in the 2016 season, when they were relegated for the first time since the team was formed.

Now Seongnam FC has become a club with Korean characteristics, that is, the "Citizen Club", which means that it does not belong to any company, but is completely supported by the government, there are many such clubs in South Korea, mixed relegation is their preferred goal, and even rumors of match-fixing are usually spread from the Citizen Club.

Unlike other citizen teams, Seongnam FC's current "owner", Seongnam Mayor Lee Jae-myung (the one who later resisted the THAAD system and ran for president after Park Geun-hye stepped down), is a fan who gave the club a lot of support after the former company abandoned Seongnam Ilhwa, and he once went to the away stadium at his own expense to cheer for the ball.

Seongnam FC won the Korean FA Cup last season with the support of the government and qualified for the AFC Champions League, after which Seongnam FC made a difficult decision: spending 1.5 billion won on the transfer market. This figure may seem scary, but it is equivalent to less than 8.5 million yuan.

So they are also seen as the weakest part of the group.

Kim He-beom, the current head coach of Seongnam FC, who is the former coach of Henan Jian, also appeared very low-key, saying in an interview before the game: "I know that our opponent is a club with a lot of investment, they have world-class stars like Pato and Ben Alfa, and many of the players in the team are players of the national team, although we have not played against them before, but we have to study the opponent carefully and seize the opportunity, they are the team we have to cross." ”

Zhang Sheng is full of confidence in this game: "Although our team is a little difficult in terms of personnel, but the main team of the first team is not injured, and our goal in this game is to get all three points." ”
