17. Recruiting tough and first battles

It is also related to the opening game, last season's opening ceremony of the Chinese Super League was held in Guangzhou, Zhang Sheng still clearly remembers how much blood Guangzhou Evergrande spent to hold the opening ceremony, and the first Super League game of the Longteng team was also arranged, and finally the Longteng team drew 1:1 with the opponent away, which made Evergrande really embarrassed.

This season, the opening ceremony of the Chinese Super League was arranged in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, and the home team was Hangzhou Greentown, and it happened that this game was also the first Chinese Super League game of the Longteng team this season.

Don't think about it, the Hangzhou Huanglong Stadium will definitely be full of flowers, colorful flags fluttering, Hangzhou Greentown will definitely be the protagonist, and the Longteng team will be reduced to a supporting role.

This time the Longteng team may embarrass the home team more than the last time, after all, compared to Guangzhou Evergrande, Hangzhou Greentown does not have the strength to confront the Longteng team, even if the home Buff is added, the opening ceremony Buff is not good, and it is the task that the Longteng team must complete to take all three points.

However, the day before Zhang Sheng led the team to Hangzhou, there was news about the players called by the system this time, and the arrival of the players was a little tortuous.

Longteng team at the end of last season in the province of Anwan Province to establish a football base, here is an underdeveloped province of Chinese football, for many years there is no Super League team, even the Chinese A team is very few, the history of the two Chinese A teams are outsiders, in Anwan Province is not very satisfactory, and finally for various reasons are gone, scattered.

So when the Longteng team established a branch school in the past, the local provincial sports bureau was still very welcome, but when the Longteng football school was successfully established, the matter ended there, and then they gradually lost interest, but they regarded the local players who were not very strong strictly, and did not let the Longteng team have the opportunity to interfere.

When the Longteng scouts took a fancy to one of their provincial full-backs, they made a lot of demands, such as the local sports bureau asking for the ownership of the players, such as the bizarre conditions such as having to participate in the National Games regardless of whether they play in the Chinese Super League or not.

There are even some people who have said through channels: "As long as the expression is in place, the player can not only handle the relationship clearly, but also cheapen a lot." ”

When the football school was ready to spend money to eliminate the disaster, Zhang Sheng stopped it when he was ready to take a look at the Longteng Club, because Zhang Sheng knew that Anwan Province had not been peaceful in recent years, there were a large number of officials who had problems, and there were also people on the sports front who had accidents, so he would rather spend more money to buy out the ownership of the players than stick to this matter.

Zhang Sheng's approach is very "unruly", which leads to difficulties in the negotiation of player ownership in the future, and the more serious problem is that some people with intentions spread the news that Zhang Sheng is ready to focus on the introduction of this player.

As the most fruitful youth training in recent years, Longteng Football School has long been stared at by countless people, Zhang Sheng's ability to turn stone into gold is seen by countless clubs and agents, usually Zhang Sheng's speed of selecting players is super fast, when people outside hear the wind, Longteng Football School or club has already handled the hand and tail seamlessly, and now it is actually in a tug-of-war, and now things are complicated.

In the process of negotiations, the player named Tian Qijie was like a big lump of honey, attracting not only bees and ants - agents with ideas, but also dogs and bears - clubs.

The capable, the incapable, the single-handed, the behemoth, the number of people who want to cut off Hu is countless, Zhang Sheng spent so much effort to introduce this not very famous player, the player's potential is absolutely limitless.

But in the end, it's the parents of the players and the players themselves who make a difference.

As a club that will develop young players and are willing to let players play, the Longteng team has long been the target of those players' parents and players.

After Zhang Sheng ensured the future of the players, provided a detailed training plan, and promised playing time when they were old enough, Tian Qijie and his parents still chose Longteng Football School.

Of course, they are not stupid, Tian Qijie's parents took out the amount of the buyout contract provided by other clubs and agents to bargain with Longteng Football School, so that Longteng Football School made a lot of blood - more than 100w in cash.

This is also the highest price that Longteng Football School has spent so far to recruit players, and it was only when Tian Qijie signed his name on his contract that Zhang Sheng was completely relieved.

Because Tian Qijie, who has reached the age of eighteen, already has independent citizenship, his signature means that the ownership of the player belongs to Longteng Football School 100%.

After solving the problem of player summoning, Zhang Sheng can finally lead the team to Hangzhou with ease.

After coming to Hangzhou, Zhang Sheng got a news, that is, the now popular thrifty wind blew to the opening ceremony of the Chinese Super League, and fans are likely to usher in the most humble opening ceremony of the Chinese Super League after experiencing the most humble Spring Festival Gala ever.

When the opening ceremony officially began, everything became a reality, although there were singers singing peacefully and national football coach Perrin delivering a speech at the opening ceremony. But the slightly humble opening ceremony also caused many netizens to complain.

At the beginning of the opening ceremony, a group of students dressed in yellow began a group gymnastics performance.

Fans who have long experienced boring group gymnastics performances from elementary school, middle school to university obviously don't buy it, and this uncreative performance has caused large-scale complaints from fans.

Some fans said on Weibo, "The cheerleaders of the opening ceremony are here to play soy sauce, all kinds of mess!"

Some fans wrote, "Is this the student performance team of Lijiagou Primary School in XX County?"

There are even fans who are dissatisfied with the students who have been improvised together, "The physical fitness of the current students is too poor, and all kinds of bodies are blessed!"

The most embarrassing thing for the broadcaster, CCTV, was the speech of the fan representatives.

Last year, Ma Shoufu did not invest in his hometown team Hangzhou Greentown, but switched to Guangzhou Evergrande, which made Hangzhou fans resentful for a long time. In this regard, CCTV broadcast also urgently eliminated the live sound of the stands.

Regardless of the opening ceremony, even though it was commented by many fans as "the worst in history", the 2015 Chinese Super League season still started as scheduled.

Before the game, the outside world agreed that Hangzhou Greentown would create a lot of trouble for the Longteng team, because the French football coach Troussier, nicknamed the "White Wizard", came to China for the second time to coach, and his appearance was still very amazing.

In an interview with reporters, Troussier said that his transformation of the team has been 80% complete.

When asked by reporters what he thought of the opponents in this match, the Dragons, Troussier said: "I know them. They are the upstarts of the Super League, they are very strong, but we believe that at home I will let them know that we are determined to win. ”

But when it came to the game, he found that the strength of the Dragon Teng team was far stronger than he imagined.

It is also a team that wants to build the team into a pass-and-control style of play, and the pass-control ability of the Longteng team far exceeds that of Hangzhou Greentown.

After the start of the game, Hangzhou Greentown, which kicked off, was forced by the high position of the Longteng team, and soon they lost the ball, and the next game entered the complete control of the Longteng team.

The Longteng team completed three high-quality shots in the opening ten minutes, but fortunately, Hangzhou Greentown's goalkeeper Gu Chao performed well and tried to keep the door open.

But this kind of passive defense is very dangerous, and the slightest distraction of the defender can cause serious trouble.

Sure enough, in the eighteenth minute of the first half, Lin Feng's passing organization in the midfield connection had an effect, and the players of Greentown had been running with the rhythm of the Longteng team, and there was a leak in the penalty area, Pato successfully hit an empty goal in the penalty area after receiving Tao Wentao's pass, and the score became 0:1.

In desperation, the players of Hangzhou Greentown had to give up their existing tactics and frequently used fouls to interrupt the attack of the Longteng team, which did delay the attack of the Longteng team, but their own attack was not disciplined, and the head coach's arrangement before the game became useless.

Trussier wanted to change the situation, but seeing that the players who could not compete with the Dragons at all, he could only acquiesce to the players' approach.

In the end, the first half also ended 0:1.

At halftime, Troussier asked the players to play more actively and actively, and insisted on his own pass-and-control play, but Zhang Sheng chatted with the players very easily, allowing them to maintain their performance in the first half.

In the second half, the game between the two sides was very open, and the players of the Green City team kept in mind Troussier's requirements, and regardless of the defense, they developed a desperate attack, and the Longteng team relied on sticking to their own tactics and attacking with all their might.

Now the game is open, the game is good, the home fans are satisfied, but the danger is also greater for Greentown.

In the 55th minute, it was Lin Feng's organization in the midfield that broke through Greentown's defense, this time it was Pato who assisted, and the goal became Nie Jiang, which was also Nie Jiang's first goal in the Chinese Super League.

The commentator in charge of the commentary also specifically mentioned Nie Jiang's age: "Nie Jiang, the young player who scored goals in the Longteng team, is only 17 years and 24 days old now, and the previous record for the youngest age to score in the Chinese Football Professional League was held by Huang Bowen of Guangzhou Evergrande, who was only 16 years and 317 days old at the time. Although Nie Jiang is a little worse than this record, he has previously broken the AFC Champions League record for the youngest age to score, this is a talented player, according to this momentum, he should not be worse than Huang Bowen. ”

If Zhang Sheng heard this, he would definitely not agree, Nie Jiang can have a potential of 110, this number is not comparable to a few players in the country except for the few players summoned later, and his future is far more promising than Huang Bowen.

The score of 0:2 made the players of Hangzhou Greentown a little deflated, and they also worked hard to attack, but the interception of the Longteng team's backline and midfield was too strong, and it seemed that they were also playing well, but the threat to the Longteng team's goal was not great, and more often they could only threaten the Longteng team's goal with a long-range shot from the periphery.

Although Troussier had already made a substitution at half-time, he now had to make another substitution, hoping to change the situation on the pitch through personnel adjustments, but unfortunately it did not have much effect.

The score on the field is now completely relieved, in the second half only 60 minutes, Zhang Sheng made a substitution, because four days ago just scored a game in the AFC Champions League, this time ran over to play away, the players are still quite tired, Zhang Sheng also began to adjust the substitution, compared to Troussier's substitution, Zhang Sheng's substitution is more to retain strength.

And Zhang Sheng's substitutions did not weaken the strength on the field too much, whether it was Ivo who replaced Pato, Du Zhenyu who replaced Ma Yongli, or Zou Weijia who replaced Nie Jiang, they all had good strength, and their performance on the field was also very good.

Ivo scored another goal before the end of the game, turning the score into 0:3, and the face of Hangzhou Greentown, which was the host of the opening ceremony and the host of the opening ceremony, was completely torn off, which was also the first time in the history of the Chinese Super League to lose the host in the opening ceremony.

After the game, Trussier said helplessly: "The strength of the opponent is too strong, whether it is foreign aid or domestic players, the opponent has the top strength of the Chinese Super League, we have too many mistakes in attack and defense, and we will work hard to improve next." ’

Zhang Sheng didn't want to send a lot of good words: "Hangzhou Greentown is a team with a very beautiful style of play, they have a group of very good young players, I am optimistic about their future." ”

After hearing Zhang Sheng's words, some fans teased on the Internet: "The Longteng team has the youngest lineup in the Chinese Super League, and now they are playing the other party like this, and they actually say that they are too young, it is really invisible and deadly." ”

After the first round of matches, last season's top three teams Guangzhou Evergrande, Beijing Guoan and Longteng team all won, compared to Guoan and Longteng are easy 3-0 victories, Guangzhou Evergrande won very difficult, promoted Ma Shijiazhuang Yongchang created a lot of trouble for them.

They first broke through Evergrande's door away from home, leading 1-0, until the stoppage time before the end of the first half Evergrande equalized by Goulart, in the second half of the united Shijiazhuang Yongchang let Guangzhou Evergrande not have many chances, until the stoppage time countdown due to the Han Super League to overtake the score.

Of course, this is also related to the previous AFC Champions League Alan was seriously injured for five months, Zeng Cheng was seriously injured for a month, Evergrande's luck is really not good, and the previous team's meritorious coach Lippi has officially submitted his resignation and returned to Italy, the players have been more or less affected, but this game also indicates that Guangzhou Evergrande's Chinese Super League this season will not be so easy.
