After nine games of competition, Parma U19 all affirmed the strength of young players such as Zhang Shujie, Li Mu, Strassell, etc., in the subsequent series of games, Parma all the way forward, after 26 regional league games, Parma ranked second, smoothly entered the quarterfinals.

It was 2008 at this time.

Zhang Shujie's outstanding performance not only attracted more attention from the local media, but also alarmed the head coach of the first team. At this time, Parma's first-team manager had been replaced from Di Carlo to Cooper. On 10 March, Parma lost at home to Sampdoria, which was also DiCarlo's last time in charge of Parma, and Cooper replaced him shortly after the game.

Di Carlo also learned from Manzo that these youngsters are very capable, and he wanted to take some time to inspect them in the youth team, but before that day, club president Giraldi fired him.

This can only be blamed for his poor record with Parma struggling from the bottom of the table this season, unable to get out of the relegation zone, and Giraldi has completely lost patience and trust in him.

After Cooper took office, although he heard Manzo mention Zhang Shujie and Li Mu to him, he had been in office for less than half a month, and it was impossible for him to go directly to the youth team to see those sixteen or seventeen-year-old teenagers alone. His priority is to lead Parma to the first division in the remaining leagues.

But the reality is always cruel, and on 18 May, Parma hosted Serie A giants Inter Milan, and before the game, it was announced that Cooper had been sacked and Under-19 head coach Manzo became the new first-team coach on an interim basis.

This season, Manzo's youth team has had a good season, first breaking through from the regional stage of the Fachetti League, reaching the knockout rounds, and reaching the last four in the knockout rounds, and finally losing to Juventus. Giraldi took a fancy to the youth team's good results, so Manzo was ordered to solve the urgent need.

Unfortunately, Manzo was unable to recover, and Parma finally lost 0:2 at home to Inter Milan, unable to get rid of the fate of relegation, and fell into the second division for the first time in history.

2008 was a complicated year for the Chinese, as on May 12, a sudden earthquake left the whole of China in mourning, and more than 100,000 people lost their lives in the earthquake. People across the country spontaneously donated money to mourn the disaster area.

But the dead are gone, and the living still have to live, and many things still have to be done.

The opening of the Olympic Games in Beijing on August 8 made the world realize a new Beijing, and the 1.3 billion Chinese also woke up from the grief of the earthquake. It's just that for Chinese football fans, the performance of the Chinese team still makes them extremely sad in the past half a year.

In the South Africa World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team had a bad start, winning only one of the six games in the top 20 games, ranking only fourth in the group, failing to enter the top 10, and the ticket to South Africa was also handed over. However, the most sighing thing is the national Olympic team.

The Chinese team is the host of this Olympic Games, and the fans are still looking forward to these young lads playing a few good-looking games in front of their hometown parents, but the national Olympic team has not won one game in three games, and only scored one goal.

If you just lose the game, the fans will scold. The key is that the Chinese Olympic team has also done something that has made the Chinese people extremely embarrassed.

The Olympics on home soil would have been very significant, and the Chinese Olympic team scored in the Olympics for the first time in history, but later, they ruined their good impression in front of the fans.

On August 10, in the match between the Chinese team in Shenyang and Belgium, Tan Wangsong kicked the opponent's player in the lower body with an "invincible scud", showing a "Chinese kung fu" in front of the world. It was a dangerous move and the referee showed him a red card and sent him off the pitch.

Chinese fans can't afford to face this scene, but it has happened, and it is useless to escape. The fans had to sigh: "This is simply a shame to be thrown at the doorstep!"

Extreme fans also borrowed the tune of "Blue and White Porcelain" to write lyrics and sing for their country's "heroes" to "miss" the Chinese team.

"Chinese football has broken our hearts without a trace, and the Chinese Football Association is equivalent to shamelessness and incompetence...... Argentina has Messi, Brazil has Ronnie, Italy has Totti, France has Henry, and China has a football emperor, but it is more than 108,000 miles behind...... You ask me when Chinese football will be the first, don't scare God. ”

This spoof song has been widely circulated on the Internet, but what makes Chinese fans cry and laugh the most is that there is something else. This is the "fork psoas muscle" mentioned by Xie Mulong, vice chairman of the Chinese Football Association.

The incident originated from the fact that after the Chinese women's football team was eliminated from the Olympic Games, the players made a written summary report as required, Xie Mulong came forward to accuse the Chinese women's football team of having no fighting spirit on the field, and he also said that if the Chinese women's football team wants to win the game, it must first exercise its body and train the most important "fork psoas muscle".

As soon as these words came out, Chinese fans couldn't help but "bow down" to Xie Mulong, everyone looked up which muscle the fork psoas muscle was on the Internet, and some netizens pointed out that even Baidu and Google couldn't tell where the fork psoas muscle is, and how to train the fork psoas muscle. Some netizens believe that this is a new topic in medicine, human anatomy and sports.

There are many fans who ask Xie Mulong to leave class, but the vice president of the Chinese Football Association is not ashamed but proud, saying that "the fans want me to leave class because I am not good enough, I will continue to do it", his thick skin is comparable to the wall of the Great Wall.

Of course, not every fan is a radical, and there are also more reasonable fans who are silent about the Chinese team, and they just raise a lot of questions about the selection of the team.

For example, Ma Junqiang, who plays in Belgium, neither the national team nor the national Olympic team called him in. If it makes sense not to call in Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, who are still training in the Parma reserve team, why is Ma Junqiang, who is already half of the main force in St. Truiden, also given up by the national brand?

The national team can still use the excuse of "too young" to reject Ma Junqiang, so why does the national Olympic team with an age limit (under 23 years old, three overage players allowed) also want him? Is it true that the Chinese players who play in Europe are not as good as the people who are not in the middle of the stream in China?

Some "experts" have pointed out that this is the tradition of the national Olympic team, and the age of the players is basically controlled at 22 and 23 years old, while many of the national Olympic teams in Europe and the United States have players around 20 years old, such as Messi, and some players are not even 20 years old! For the European and American teams, the Olympic Games are a good time to train young players. China is different, more experienced players are needed to show the results to the leaders, and those who are not yet 20 years old basically have no chance.

Ma Junqiang, the goalkeeper of the Belgian St. Truiden Club, is only 19 years old this year, so naturally he will not be the choice of the national Olympic leaders who are bent on results.

Although these reasonable fans have their own reasons, they have not expressed their "love" for the national football team with practical actions, and this heavy responsibility falls on the shoulders of those radical fans.

They came in droves and shouted, "We have the best fans in the world, but we have the worst team in the world!"

"Chinese Football Association, you are just a bunch of idlers who don't do anything!"

"Chinese football is disbanded!"

"The Chinese Football Association is disbanded!"

During the period from 2002 to 2004, Chinese football also made fans love without regrets, first entering the World Cup in a historic way, and then advancing to the Asian Cup final after many years. Almost everyone thinks that there is hope for the national football team in the future, but this hope has turned into disappointment after all.

Chinese football, we used to love you, now, what do we use to love you? Now we can only hate you!

Because I have loved, I hate.

Compared with the noisy Chinese professional football, the amateur high school league is a different scene. The China Sports Association under the National Sports Bureau is mainly responsible for the competition of high school students, and it is still a pure land on this field that belongs to children.

This is probably one of the few pure lands in Chinese football at all levels and in all ages.

While fans were complaining and losing the Chinese team, the Chinese Sports Association came with good news this summer, signing contracts with more clubs in Europe, including Vidis in the Netherlands, Setúbal in Portugal and Villarreal in Spain.

The success of working with Villarreal has surprised many. You must know that Villarreal, known as the "yellow submarine", is not a weak team, it is in the middle of the Spanish first division and has also participated in the Champions Cup. The team has emerged with top stars such as Riquelme and Forlan, and it can be regarded as a strong team.

It is reported that China also talked to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga, but in the end, for unknown reasons, there was no negotiation. As for Parma, it is a question of asking price, Parma, which has fallen into the second division, still wants to sign a contract with China at last year's price, but the Chinese National Sports Bureau and the Chinese Sports Association feel that it is a fantasy for a second-division team to still want a sky-high contract, so they did not agree to Parma's request, and finally the negotiations between the two sides were forced to stop.

In this year's National High School League, three teenagers were targeted by these three clubs. Due to some mistakes in the initial negotiations, the Chinese side has not been able to meet its promise of a result in January. The three clubs dragged on and on, and it was not until mid-May that they signed contracts with China.

So the situation was the same as last year, and the three selected teenagers did not go to the team for a trial until August.

Among the three teenagers, Yan Tao was the first to be taken a fancy to the academy of Vidis in the Netherlands, and the second person to be selected was Zhao Wenkang from Chengdu, Sichuan, whose selection was a surprise, and from the analysis of his age, it can be considered a miracle.

He was nineteen years old.

Usually there is not much room for a player at this age to develop, let alone an amateur player. When he learned that he could go to Setúbal, Portugal for a tryout, he was so excited that he cried.

The teenager, who plays as a right-forward defender, disclosed in front of the media in his hometown: "I was surprised, really, I even wonder if this is a dream." Maybe after waking up from the dream, I am still just a student who is about to face the college entrance examination. ”

Happiness came to him, and he still couldn't believe it.

In fact, four players were favored in this trial, but unfortunately one person couldn't go, so only three people went.

This third person is not Chen Zihua, but a young man named Xu Ziyi, and he is also Zhao Wenkang's teammate.

Xu Ziyi is the same age as Chen Zihua, but one grade lower than Chen Zihua, and just turned 16 in April this year. In his second year of junior high school, he and Chen Zihua in the third year of junior high school were called the "twins" of the junior high school league, and in the ranking of the best midfielders, he ranked second, only behind Li Mu, one place higher than Chen Zihua.

His position is the same as Chen Zihua, both are central midfielders, and his style of play is also very similar, he can attack and defend, he is very comprehensive, and he is an all-round midfielder. He was spotted by Villarreal, the strongest of the three clubs, for this trial and went to the European continent.

So where did Chen Zihua go? Yan Tao told Zhang Shujie on the phone that Chen Zihua's father, who had never cared about him, began to discipline him and sent him to France to study.

Zhang Shujie asked if Chen Zihua would give up football. Yan Tao's answer is that he will not give up football.

Yan Tao also said that Chen Zihua revealed before leaving that he had been in contact with football since he was very young, the moment he learned to walk, and for so many years, he couldn't let go, and he would find a way to get to France, so that everyone didn't have to worry about him.

These are easier said than done. Zhang Shujie called Chen Zihua and wanted to know more specifically, but the phone never got through, so he could only ask Yan Tao what was going on.

Yan Tao said with some bitterness that Chen Zihua could not be contacted during this time, and when he arrived in France and everything was settled, he would take the initiative to contact everyone.

Stability? What is stability? Is it a stable study, or a stable kickball? This answer is in Chen Zihua's heart.

Yan Tao also said that on the day Chen Zihua decided to leave, Zhou Ying secretly shed a lot of tears, but she didn't cry.

At the same time, Yan Tao also told Zhang Shujie another thing, that is, An Rong was also leaving.

Zhang Shujie was stunned, An Rong left Yuying Middle School and went to another school?

Yan Tao told the details again, An Rong did not go to other schools, but went to Shanghai Pudong Zhongbang second-tier team as the head coach, Zhongbang observed An Rong for two years, did not doubt his coaching ability, and thought that he could lead a more professional team, so he invited him to the team. An Rong once said that he would never get involved in professional football again, but a mysterious phone call from the Shanghai Sports Bureau called An Rong, and a day later, An Rong announced that he would coach the second-tier team of Zhongbang.

Who made that call? Yan Tao didn't know, he asked An Rong, but An Rong didn't say.

This year's Yuying Middle School still reached the final in the national league, but unfortunately the team lacked Zhang Shujie as a shooter, and after 120 minutes of competition with the team with Xu Ziyi and Zhao Wenkang, Yuying Middle School lost in the penalty shootout and unfortunately fell to the runner-up. Xinguang Middle School, an old strong team, stopped in the semifinals, and without Li Mu, the strength of the team has decreased a lot.

Yuying Middle School has changed very much in this year, the strongest people in the team are gone, Zhou Ying is also busy with her studies because she was promoted to the third year of high school, and resigned as a manager, and Wang Shihan, who has just entered the second year of high school, naturally became the new manager of the team. There is also a new coach, I don't know if this new coach can compare to An Rong.

Zhang Shujie learned the news, smiled bitterly, and looked at Li Mu beside him, Li Mu also smiled bitterly.

The two of them have been in Italy for a year, and there will be more changes.

On August 15, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu were offered a new contract, which is very special, and the club signed a four-year contract with them in the form of "1+3". That means they will have to stay in the youth team for another year, and after that, if they can show what they did in Fachetti last season, they will be promoted to the first team and have a three-year contract with the team, thus becoming true professionals.
