Chapter 0131 - Strength Dumping the Pot (Twenty-fifth Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass!)
Tang Zheng came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and only Wu Xi and Li Zhichao, who missed penalties, were left in the locker room at this time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"We lost at the starting line again, do you still want to lose on the road again? Wake up, two!"
Tang Zheng sighed, adjusted his mentality, and then roared at the two people who were in a daze.
Speaking of this, Tang Zheng's voice changed: "Actually, the surname Liu is right, you are the future of Chinese football, the best young player under the age of 19 in the country, and the 12-year Olympic Games will depend on you......"
Wu Xi and Li Zhichao were stunned for a moment, and they didn't hear Tang Zheng's meaning, but at least they understood the superficial meaning.
When they raised their heads to regain their fighting spirit, Tang Zheng was no longer in the locker room, and only heard the sound of the door closing.
Tang Zheng met the team leader Zhu Heyuan at the corner of the internal passage leading from the locker room to the outside of the court, and the two looked at each other and were stunned for a moment.
Still the old Jianghu Zhu Heyuan reacted quickly, he glanced at Tang Zheng, who was fully equipped, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Are you going back to the hotel?"
"Hmm. Tang Zheng didn't hide it and nodded.
Actually, Zhu Heyuan had a good impression in Tang Zheng's heart, and they heard Tan Yang say that his ability to be selected for the competition list of this Asian Youth Championship had something to do with him.
Zhu Heyuan thought that Tang Zheng would find an excuse, but he didn't expect this young man to be so honest, so he smiled and looked up at Tang Zheng, who was a full head taller than himself: "Okay, you go back first." ”
The national youth team was eliminated, Tang Zheng was not in a very good mood, but he still glanced at Zhu Heyuan gratefully: "No matter what, thank you!"
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Zhu Heyuan to reply, and walked past his left shoulder until he disappeared in Zhu Heyuan's eyes.
As Tang Zheng disappeared from sight, Zhu Heyuan smiled bitterly.
To be honest, today's game coach Liu Chunming has a lot of responsibility, Tang Zheng is a very talented young player, and being able to become the main player of Argentine giants River Plate at this age proves that his psychological quality is extraordinary, and he is fully capable of playing key penalty shootouts.
It's good now, Liu Chunming's stubbornness contradicts Tang Zheng, what will happen to the London Olympics in four years?
However, the development of things was far beyond Zhu Heyuan's expectations, because Liu Chunming was ready to completely put the responsibility for the team's defeat on Tang Zheng......

On the way back to the hotel, Tang Zheng made a phone call to the airline and booked a ticket back to Buenos Aires at the earliest, just one o'clock in the morning from Riyadh International Airport to Buenos Aires via Istanbul and Sao Paulo.
So he didn't hesitate to take a ticket, and he didn't want to stay in the city for a minute.
At the same time, the regular post-match press conference went ahead as scheduled.
Head coach Liu Chunming and captain Zhang Linpeng were interviewed by media from various countries.
In response to the Chinese media's question about the reason for the exit, Liu Chunming was very shameless in shirking responsibility, he said: "The result of the game is not what we want to see, but the players are working hard, and the penalty shootout is due to luck and its own reasons, no matter what...... Losing is losing, but ......"
Speaking of this, Liu Chunming stopped, and stopped talking.
At this time, a middle-aged reporter in the crowd of reporters who had been embarrassed with him many times stood up and asked: "Coach Liu, before the end of overtime, we saw that Tang Zheng and Captain Zhang next to you seemed to have some disputes, and after the overtime, there was an argument with you on the sidelines...... Did that affect the penalty shoot-out?"
Liu Chunming is an old fritter, he did not answer this question directly, but deliberately changed the topic: "No matter what problems arise in the team, it is my responsibility......"
The Chinese style of speech is broad and profound, and his implication is to show that the failure of the penalty shootout is inextricably linked to Tang Zheng.
Xu Wei, the editor in charge of the "Sports Weekly" visit, frowned, stood up and asked: "Director Liu, do you mean to shirk responsibility by saying this?" and ...... I would like to know why Tang Zheng was not scheduled for the penalty shoot-out, and as far as I know, his technique, awareness and physical fitness are the best in the national youth team. ”
Suddenly, Liu Chunming's face darkened.
Xu Wei not only debunked his strength and shook the pot, but also questioned him in front of so many media.
Seeing that Liu Chunming didn't reply, "New Wolf Sports" threw out the question again: "From our information, Tang Zheng's personal ability is very strong in the whole team, why did Zhang Linpeng, who is good at defense, take over Tang Zheng's position in the second half of the game?"
"Did Tang Zheng question your tactical arrangements and penalty arrangements in the dispute before the penalty shootout?"
"From the data given after the game, Tang Zheng is ranked first in the team, why did this kind of player fail to become a key penalty taker?"
"According to reliable intelligence, a verbal conflict broke out in the locker room just now, is it true?"
……
One problem after another, the development of events has seriously exceeded Liu Chunming's expectations.
At this time, in China, even if it is early in the morning, fans are scolding the Football Association and the coach.
Of course, there are also fans who scold Wu Xi and Li Zhichao who dropped the chain at a critical time, and even Tang Zheng, who has been excellent in the past four games, is no exception......

At 1 a.m. local time in Saudi Arabia, Tang Zheng boarded a flight to Buenos Aires, before which he sent text messages to Tan Yang, Wu Xi and several other teammates to say goodbye to them.
At this time, the BJ time happened to be 6 o'clock in the morning, and the sports classification and sports newspapers of the major provincial newspapers and periodicals had been printed and delivered to each business point through their respective sales channels.
Compared to virtual reports on the Internet, physical newspapers feel more authentic and authoritative.
Their headlines are not much different, and they basically revolve around the exit of the national youth.
Among them, the most eye-catching is undoubtedly the headline of "Sports Weekly": the national football team, the national Olympic team, the national youth and the national youth four line rout, hitting a record low.
While Tang Zheng was still on his way to Buenos Aires, the domestic media was divided into two factions because of the national youth accident's loss to Uzbekistan.
Some people think that the exit of the national youth team is due to the coach and the Football Association, and some people think that the exit of the national youth team is because Tang Zheng played a big name at the last moment, which affected the team's normal preparation for the penalty shootout.
Online reporting and physical newspapers go hand in hand, but it is the Football Association and the coaches who have the upper hand.
After all, Tang Zheng's dedication can be seen by everyone, and the key penalty shootout Liu Chunming chose to replace Tang Zheng, who has rich experience in the game, with a player who is not very experienced, which is not an ideal choice.
Therefore, the voices of shouting Xie Yalong's resignation, Yang Yiming's resignation, and head coach Liu Chunming's responsibility are getting louder and louder......
As this voice grew louder, the Football Association decided to find someone to take the blame.
That's right, they are going to find Tang Zheng to take the blame.
Because before and after the 1/4 finals, Tang Zheng had enough reasons to take the blame.
During the preparation, he beat his teammate Park Cheng and was hospitalized, fought with the captain for the right to take penalties in key games, asked the coach for the right to free throws, and confronted the head coach after the game.
These reasons are enough to be reasons.
2008 was undoubtedly a disastrous year for Chinese football.
In the afternoon of the same day, two messages appeared on the official website of the Chinese Football Association.
"Summary of the work of the 2008 Asian Youth Championship in Saudi Arabia. ”
"Regarding the punishment result of Tang Zheng's private return to Argentina after missing the 2008 Saudi Arabia Asian Youth Championship. ”
The content of the first message is more pertinent, and it can be regarded as the Football Association's initiative to admit that the Asian Youth Championship has a certain responsibility.
But the second piece of information is unbelievable, the text says: "On November 8, 2008, in the 13th Asian Football Youth Championship 1/4 finals, the Chinese national youth team and the Uzbekistan national youth team during and after the game, according to the picture materials, the parties, the relevant football association staff, etc., the player Tang Zheng had a serious impact on the team's preparation and impact, causing adverse social impacts, according to the "Chinese Football Association" The relevant rules of the national teams at all levels are as follows, prohibiting Tang Zheng from participating in the National Olympic Games, senior teams and other competitions in the next five years......"
If the first message is to admit mistakes, then the second message is purely broken to divert everyone's attention, that is, the strength that netizens said is to throw the pot.
Of course, Tang Zheng didn't know all this, he was still on the flight to Buenos Aires.
Arriving in Buenos Aires at 1:30 a.m. on the 10th local time in Argentina, he returned home to sleep as if nothing had happened to his agent Rodrigo's new car, the BMW 3 Series.
The next day, Tang Zheng returned to the River Plate training base to prepare for the weekend league with the team.
Now River Plate's situation is not good, in Tang Zheng went to Saudi Arabia to prepare for the Asian Youth Championship stage of the game, River Plate's four rounds of league record is very poor, one win, two draws and one loss, the total record of 14 league games with seven wins, six draws and one loss, 27 points, currently ranked third in the league, three points behind the top of the table San Lorenzo, two points behind the second place Boca Juniors.
Many players know that the reason why the team fell from the top to the third place is fundamentally related to Tang Zheng's sudden departure from the team to participate in the Asian Youth Championships.
So when Tang Zheng returned to the first-team dressing room, everyone was happy, especially Tiger Falcao, who was sitting on the sidelines and wearing socks as if nothing happened, he was in a slump in the past three games, scoring only one goal, and was one of the culprits of the team's failure to secure the top spot.
"You're finally back. Falcao jumped on Tang Zheng's back, and didn't pay attention to the sock hanging on his lap and dragged it on the ground: "I can score again, woo." ”
Sanchez, who had just arrived in the locker room, slapped Falcao's sturdy ass hard and smiled: "You guy knows how to make excuses." ”
Originally, Tang Zheng was in a bad mood because the national youth team missed the World Youth Championships, but now he is in a much better mood when he sees the funny Falcao and Sanchez......
