Yake: Li, what is your goal for this Asian Junior Championship? Or how far do you expect this team to go in the Asian Junior Championships in a few days?

Yake threw out a question that he had been wanting to ask for the past few days, and he could clearly feel that Li Zong had great hopes for this new national junior team.

Li Zong: Is it a target? Haha, if I say I want to lead these kids to win the ultimate championship, do you think I'm really dreaming?

Li Zong's answer can be said to be completely unexpected by Yake, and at the same time, as Li Zong guessed, he felt that this was impossible.

The children of this national junior team are really good, at least in Yako's opinion, these children have made him change his previous perception of Chinese football children.

But that's all, if you want to win the final championship, in Yake's view, it is still a little worse, in his impression, the Chinese team must pass Japan, South Korea, Australia, Iraq, Iran these hurdles, these teams represent the highest level of Asian football.

Yako: Lee, seriously, I don't know why you have such confidence? At least I think it's a little unrealistic.

Li Zong did not discuss too much with Yake on this issue, but smiled indifferently, and his mind returned to what the chairman of the Football Association said to him half a month ago.

"Lao Li, you have to have pressure, this national junior team has many differences, it can be said that it is the first fruit acceptance of the "Green Plan", and it can also be said that he is the unveiling of a new era, so the task you shoulder is not light, only this Asian Junior Championship has changed, and then a series of actions can continue"

As the head coach of the national junior team, Li Zong knows about the "Green" plan, so he can naturally understand the meaning of this.

At the same time, it is precisely because he knows all this, so he has great expectations for this year's Asian Junior Championships, the team of 8 children from the "Green" plan training base, the strength is really good, in addition, or it is an unexpected joy, Chen Long's birth has given him more choices in arranging the formation.

Li Zong didn't know what the follow-up action was said by Cai Ming, chairman of the Football Association? However, he had some vague uncertain speculations.

Once your guess is correct, then you may really be lucky enough to witness the beginning of a prosperous era.

"Yake, I need your full cooperation with me in this Asian Junior Championship, especially the logistics support, we must do a good job."

Thinking back to the present, Li Zong looked at Yake very seriously, the reason why the Football Association is equipped with such a "luxurious" coaching staff is precisely because of this.

Yake: Stress, Li, I'll do my best, and since I'm hired here, I'll do my job!

In the afternoon, Chen Long and they gathered together at the training ground, which was regarded as the "oath meeting" issued before the Asian Junior Competition.

Of course, this is unique to the coaching staff and the players, and there are no outsiders involved.

Li Zong: Players, to make a long story short, I don't know what each of you is aiming for this Asian Junior Championship? However, I would like to say that what I expect from you is the final champion.

It's not a big deal, as your coach, it's my honor to coach you, you are the strongest national junior team I have ever seen.

So, players, do you have the confidence that let's unite together to win the final championship, open a new era, create a new history, and justify the name of our Chinese football?

"Yes"

I have to say, what Li Zong said. It was very inflammatory, and all the children, including Chen Long, shouted loudly.

The 22 players replied in unison, before this, maybe they were from different places, maybe they didn't know each other.

However, at this moment, as Li Zong said, the reason why they are gathered here is that their ultimate goal should be the ultimate champion.

Many years later, Chen Long recalled that the corners of his eyes couldn't help but moisten the corners of his eyes in this current scene.

It was a group of fledgling young children, and it was the beginning of a wonderful and prosperous era.

That night, under the leadership of the coaching staff, Chen Long and the others left the training base and went to the location of the Asian Junior Championship, officially starting the "Asian Junior Championship Journey"

This Asian Junior Championship has a total of 16 teams from Asia that finally entered the finals, 16 teams are divided into 4 groups, first the group stage, the top two in each group advance to the top 8, and then the top 4, semi-finals, finals, according to the rules of the event, the top 4 teams in the Asian Junior Championship will be able to participate in next year's World Junior Championships.

The Chinese team was divided into Group A, with Malaysia, Myanmar, Lebanon, the Chinese team in Group A, the Chinese team has the strongest strength, followed by Lebanon, the opening match of this Asian Junior Championship by the host Chinese team vs Malaysia.

Therefore, after Chen Long and the others came to Wuhan, they immediately started closed training the next day to prepare for the first game.
