At half past 9 o'clock in the evening, Zhang Sheng ushered in a double happiness, one is that his team won the opponent 3:1 away, and the National Olympic team also used a penalty shootout to defeat the opponent with a total score of 4:3 after drawing the opponent Jordan 1:1, and victoriously entered the semifinals.

What made Zhang Sheng even happier was that after these two games, the players all left the game safely, and no one was injured.

The opponent of the Longteng team in this game is Tianjin TEDA, this team played a mess at the beginning of the season, and in the middle of the league the run-in was slightly formed, under the leadership of Alihan, there was a slight improvement, and basically got enough points for relegation, but at the end of the season, TEDA and several long-term relegation northern brothers played a game of sending points back and forth.

Zhang Sheng has always been unsoft on such opponents, and directly solved the battle with a clean 3:1, while taking all three points, he also tried to keep up with the two consecutive champions.

After Zhang Sheng confirmed the victory very early in this game, he began to make a large number of substitutions, with a clear purpose, which is to stay in the next FA Cup semi-final game.

Compared with Shanghai Greenland Shenhua, the Longteng team, which was still a team in the Chinese League last season, has gained the advantage of the schedule of the first away and then the main team this time.

Just one day before the first leg of the FA Cup semi-finals, Jang Seung received mixed news that the Olympic team had been beaten by South Korea in the semi-finals: 1 defeated, the team's players will return to China soon, the worry is that when Zhang Sheng proposed to let the players of the National Olympic team return to China in advance, the relevant leaders of the Football Association are very unhappy, because since entering the new millennium, the Chinese football team has not had the opportunity to get a medal in the Asian Games, although the team did not reach the finals of the championship and runner-up, but finally reached the final of the third or fourth place, and may be able to get a medal back, which is the political achievements of the Football Association's heads and brains.

Zhang Sheng's proposal was obviously considered by the leaders of the Football Association to be very "incompatible", and it is reasonable that such a proposal was denied.

Hearing the reply of the Football Association, what else can Zhang Sheng do? You can't force the players to return to China like Shandong Luneng, but the Longteng Group of your own family has no confidence to compare with a central enterprise like Luneng Group, which has a background in the State Grid, so you can only accept this reply.

Zhang Sheng can only wait for the Longteng players of the National Olympic team to return to China after playing the third and fourth finals of the Asian Games with Iraq on October 2, which is obviously not in time for the 27th round of the Chinese Super League.

And after the 27th round of the game, the Chinese national team is about to start training again, and Zhang Sheng lost the opportunity to let the returning National Olympic players train together with the players of the same team.

The 50-man training squad for the national team came out very early, and as many as 9 players from the Longteng team were selected, including Xiao Yunfan, who was still in the National Olympic team, also received a notice that he was ready to be selected for the 23-man squad at any time, and his selection was to replace the injured Zhou Zhou.

However, compared to Guangzhou Evergrande, which has as many as 12 people selected, Zhang Sheng secretly smiled, no matter how powerful Evergrande's personnel reserves are, when the time comes, a large number of players will really be selected, and the opportunity for the Longteng team to wait for work in the back will come.

After playing the match with Tianjin TEDA, Zhang Sheng flew directly to Shanghai with the team, and this season's FA Cup championship is very eager for Zhang Sheng, because it will determine whether the Longteng team will be able to have enough rest and training time next season.

According to AFC regulations, the Chinese Super League can have four teams to participate in the AFC Champions League. The league champion team and the FA Cup champion team in the Chinese Super League are directly into the main stage of the AFC Champions League, while the second place in the league needs to play one more round of play-offs, while the third place in the league needs to play two more rounds of play-offs, and if the winner of the FA Cup is also the top three in the league, the fourth team in the Chinese Super League is the substitute.

Now the Dragons are third in the league, and if the team keeps this position and does not win the FA Cup, it will have a big impact on the preparation for next season, and the team must train at least two weeks earlier than others, which will definitely affect the fitness situation in the later stage.

Therefore, Zhang Sheng is very eager to win the FA Cup, and of course, winning the FA Cup is another beautiful dream of Zhang Sheng.

Shanghai Greenland Shenhua's results this season are not good, although the team at the beginning of the season vigorously introduced, and the purchase price is a lot of premium, but their debts are too much, the former Shenhua owner Zhu Jun will be the old powerhouse of Chinese professional football to make all sorts, the most important thing is that his unreliable management method is really shaking the foundation of Shenhua, repeatedly lost credibility, wrong team culture, bad player trading, so that Greenland Group took over a complete mess.

Although Greenland Group has increased investment, but the team's vitality was injured, and it is not an overnight thing to revive the momentum, fortunately, this season's Shanghai Shenhua's reinforcement is still very successful, although Zhu Jun put together before buying the team, several core players were sold, but Sun Yu and Xu Di introduced from the Longteng team are still worth the money, after spending the run-in period at the beginning of the season, the two of them played a very big role in the team, a wave of undefeated in the middle of the league, so that the team determined the advantage of relegation early, and also reached the semi-finals in the FA Cup, although the hope of winning the championship is slim, but still left a thought for the club.

However, for Shanghai Shenhua in the reconstruction period, the Longteng team is not an opponent they can shake for the time being, even if Shenhua is at home in this game, the players have also given their best efforts, but they have to bow down in the face of the strong strength of the Longteng team.

And Zhang Sheng's goal this time is very clear, that is, to solve the battle away from home, and the team has completed the task perfectly.

In the first half, the team relied on a beautiful goal from Pato to turn the score into 0:1, and then in the second half, Ben Alpha suddenly plugged after a beautiful breakthrough, giving Wen Kai a chance to make a single knife, and he was very familiar with Xu Di's saving habits, and decisively hit Xu Di's time difference, expanding the score to 0:2.

After holding a two-goal lead until the end of the game, the Dragons could basically declare themselves on the threshold of the FA Cup final with one foot.

After the game, the Longteng team returned to Jiangcheng satisfied, and Zhang Sheng also began to use the points he had accumulated during this time to start summoning, and this time Zhang Sheng still chose to summon the coach.

After the incident of the new youth training method last time, Zhang Sheng is very much looking forward to the coaches called, who knows what training methods or advanced concepts the new coach will bring to the team this time.

After summoning the system, this time the system gave two more professional coaches, one is a professional youth goalkeeper coach, and the other is a professional youth physical trainer.

The previous Longteng team also had young goalkeepers, but due to the lack of domestic goalkeeper coaches and low ability, the football school is a foreign coach hired with a high salary, but a foreign coach can not completely take care of all the echelons, so Tafarel can only go to the football school from time to time to guide, but this is not a long-term approach, Zhang Sheng feels that it is necessary to cultivate a group of domestic excellent youth goalkeeper coaches.

In fact, the lack of domestic goalkeeper coaches has always been the fundamental reason why excellent young goalkeepers cannot emerge in China.

As early as when Wang Junsheng was in charge of the Football Association, he saw two drawbacks of Chinese football, one is poor physical fitness, and the other is that there is no successor in the goalkeeper position. However, Wang Junsheng's physical test and 10,000-meter run have not changed the gap between Chinese players and their Japanese and South Korean counterparts in terms of physical fitness, and the ban on foreign goalkeepers has not solved the goal shortage in Chinese football.

And the ban on foreign goalkeepers at that time also had a very deep background.

In those years, there were a lot of foreign goalkeepers in the A and Chinese Super League. As the team's last line of defense, the importance of the goalkeeper in the game is self-evident, and at the same time, the tempering of those high-level offensive players in European football and the training of excellent goalkeeper coaches allow European football to provide the best development environment for goalkeepers, and the quality of goalkeepers is also the best.

Shanghai Shenhua has successively introduced Gao Jia and Valery, Qingdao Manatee has also used two foreign goalkeepers in a row, Bulzakevich and James, the Liaoning team has French goalkeeper Fabres, Yanbian has Blakima, the forward defender Huandao is Gisindo, Shenyang Sea Lion is Rinengda from Peru, Sichuan Quanxing is Ricuk, and the most impressive is Shandong Luneng's former Yugoslav third country Men Sasha.

In the 1999 season, Sasha joined Shandong Luneng, and in that season set a record for the fewest goals conceded in 26 games with only 13 goals conceded, which has not been broken to this day. In his two seasons with Luneng, Sasha made 51 appearances, winning the 1999 A-League title and FA Cup with his team-mates.

There have been rumors in domestic football circles that it was Sasha's excellent performance that scared the leaders of the Football Association, and his performance in the A-A field was so good that the Chinese Football Association introduced a policy of restricting foreign goalkeepers.

Because the position of the goalkeeper is too special - there can only be one goalkeeper on the field in a game, if a large number of foreign goalkeepers pour into the Chinese Super League, then the living space of local goalkeepers will become minimal, resulting in a significant decline in the level of local goalkeepers, which greatly affects the selection of the national team and the long-term development of the team.

So in this context, whether it is intimidated by the ability of foreign goalkeepers or in order to cultivate domestic goalkeepers, in short, the new chairman of the Football Association, Yan Shiduo, ordered a ban on the introduction of foreign goalkeepers from the 2001 season.

A large number of foreign goalkeepers had to leave China, such as Sasha who was forced to leave after the policy was introduced, and then he chose to retire, and only later did young players like Wang Dalei have the opportunity to play.

In fact, Zhang Sheng is still in favor of this "local regulation", because the position of the goalkeeper is too special, if the domestic goalkeeper is not given enough protection in the low-level league, it is not impossible for all teams in the Chinese Super League to be foreign goalkeepers, and it is really a big problem who will guard the national team at that time.

However, with the "retreat" caused by this regulation, there has also been a phenomenon of "locking the country" in goalkeeper coaches, except for individual clubs hiring foreign goalkeeper coaches on their own, China's young goalkeepers have nothing to do with the world's advanced goalkeeper training.

Coupled with the neglect of youth goalkeeper training and the lack of training level by grassroots coaches, it has led to a serious lack of goalkeeper talents in the youth training field. At present, the composition of domestic youth goalkeeper coaches is mainly served by non-special goalkeeper coaches, or even non-football professionals.

The level of these coaches can be imagined, and they also directly affect the training of young goalkeepers.

As we all know, goalkeeper coaches are very common for goalkeepers to come from goalkeepers, but an excellent goalkeeper may not necessarily be transformed into an excellent goalkeeper coach, the reason is that the purpose of training is not to show personal talent, but to explore the potential of the players, such as Zhang Sheng's previous magic water teammate Li Jian is the case, in order to improve his coaching level, Zhang Sheng had to send him to Germany, the world's most powerful goalkeeper training base, to further study, and he went for two years.

It's a pity that far water can't quench the thirst of the near, only one or two excellent goalkeeper coaches to improve the overall level of the entire Super League goalkeeper coach is a drop in the bucket, for example, in 2012, the invited French Metz team participated in the U15 age group of the National Youth Men's Football League Finals, after the game Metz coach Bertrand mentioned two problems of the Chinese team, one is the lack of physical fitness of the players, the other is the low level of goalkeepers, he even doubts whether these Chinese goalkeepers have special training from a very young age。

In 2006, he was given the opportunity to train with the Inter Milan youth team for a week, and was found to be in excellent physical condition and reflexes, but all kinds of basic techniques developed wrong habits, which made the coach Bosalia, who liked him very much, sigh, which shows the seriousness and universality of the problem.

Since the system has given the goalkeeper coach this time, Zhang Sheng is of course very happy, even if the coaching level is average at this stage, but with the system's urine, the growth will not be bad, if he can learn more from an excellent goalkeeper coach like Tafarel after he comes, the future will definitely be very good.

When the time comes, when Li Jian returns to China, Longteng Football School will also have a complete set of goalkeeper coaches from the first team to the senior team, and will provide many good goalkeepers for the Longteng team.
