13. Weaknesses

I don't know why, at the press conference after the game, Gao Hongbo brought Qin Gude up.

After a 3-0 victory over group winners Syria, the Chinese team has overtaken their opponents in points and locked up their qualifying places, and as long as they do not lose to Vietnam in the final round of the group stage, the national football team can ensure the top spot in the group - although this does not have much impact on the grouping of the main competition, it is very important for the face of the entire national team.

"May I ask Director Gao, the Chinese team didn't score until Qin Gude came on the field, does this mean that he can get a more dominant position in the national team in the future?" Journalists with good things tore up the topic.

"First of all, I want to state that since the opening, we have been in a favorable position, in the **** of 15 minutes, the goal range 3 times, posed a great threat to Syria, only because the opponent's goalkeeper was too good, so he couldn't score early, and then Shao Jiayi's two shots on goal were the same, without the goalkeeper's play, I'm afraid we could have taken a 3-0 or even greater lead in the first half." Gao Hongbo didn't answer directly, but then he changed his words, "Of course, I must admit that Qin Good's play is the key point of today's game, he and Hao Junyi left and right, with their breakthroughs and long-range shots, formed a huge impact on the already tired Syrian backline, and the cooperation between Qin Goode and Shao Jiayi is extremely tacit, they also reflect the level and technology of Bundesliga players, to have such an outstanding player, it is undoubtedly the luck of the national team, but also my luck." ”

He did not completely dismiss the other players and his own technical and tactical arrangements because of Qin Good's excellent performance, but believed that Qin Goode was able to score goals as soon as he came on the pitch thanks to the substitution arrangement - from a certain point of view, this explanation is not wrong.

"May I ask Mr. Qin Good," a reporter jumped out of nowhere, and he looked at the young player with a smile on his face, as if he was a seductive and fooled monster, "You came off the bench today, and you scored two goals and an assist in just 15 minutes, how many points can you score on your cousin?" ”

Qin Gude smiled: "I think I can score 99 points, and I am afraid that I am proud of the remaining 1 point." ”

There was a burst of laughter in the press gallery.

"So...... Do you think you have the quality to play in the national team? The reporter finally threw out the question he really wanted to ask.

This is simply a typical example of fearing that the world will not be chaotic, Gao Hongbo snorted inaudibly, and Qin Gude asked with a smile: "Hello, do you think I can?" ”

The other party did not answer: "I am asking the question." ”

"Then I'll answer you," Qin Goode smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I'm only 18 years and five months old, I just played professional games last summer, and I have only played ten Bundesliga games in half a year, and I have played a total of two substitute games in the national team. Of course, if after a few years I have improved my strength and experience, I believe that I can occupy a place in this national team under high coaching. ”

Gao Hongbo bowed slightly, expressing satisfaction and satisfaction with his neither humble nor arrogant answer: this young boy is far more mature than his peers, and he did not step into the trap set by the fox lightly because of his pride.

Another reporter raised his hand: "Director Gao, can I ask Qin Gude a question about him?" ”

Gao Hongbo, who was in a good mood, shrugged his shoulders with a smile: "You can ask for his opinion." ”

"Hello, Qin Goode," the reporter turned his gun, "I'm Ma Xingde from Sports Daily, I've been following Ketbus and your game for a long time, and I basically watch the video and highlights of every game." ”

"Oh, thank you for your support." Qin Gude thanked casually.

"We all know that you are famous for your long-range shots, of course, you also have sharp breakthroughs and accurate bottom crosses, but there are a few games that are average, such as against Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen, the opponent's Gustavo and Vidal are very headaches, both of which Ivbus lost by a big score, and you basically did not succeed in breaking through and shooting," Ma Xingde asked with a serious face, "Does this mean that the defects of the Chinese constitution make it difficult for you to adapt to the high-intensity game?" ”

Before he could ask a question, Gao Hongbo was already aware of his intentions, but in front of the camera, he could only cough lowly.

Qin Gude subconsciously rubbed his fingers and muttered: "I think, even if it is Ronaldo, Zidane in his peak, or Kaka, Ronaldo, and Messi in recent years, they will not like too strong defense and overly confrontational games, and from a pure football point of view, no one can guarantee that they can easily pass the opponent's defenders every time they dribble the ball, nor can they guarantee that every shot can score, right?" ”

Seeing that Ma Xingde opened his mouth and was about to retort again, he continued to speak: "Everyone has been reporting on football for many years, and he must have more experience than me, a player, even if he is a player at the level of Mr. Golden Ball, it is impossible to score two goals or a hat trick in every game, and it is impossible to maintain a stable and high-glory state, not to mention that I am just a newcomer, every opponent and every game is a new challenge for me, I still need to improve through a lot of competitions, I hope that my uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters will not hold me too high, and don't stomp me to death, give me a space to grow, okay? ”-

After the press conference, Qin Gude and his family only spent one day by the West Lake, and flew to Spain with Shao Jiayi early on the morning of January 8.

Now there is only a week before the start of the first round of the league in the second half, Shao Jiayi, who finally sat down as the main force, especially did not dare to waste time, and hurriedly joined the rare overseas training camp of Ketbus with little rest.

But they couldn't get their bodies fit for the long haul, and Hoffman excluded them from the squad on January 17, and they had to watch the game live from Shao Jia's family. Although the Cottage players have played tenaciously on the road, Schalke 04, who are second in the league, are definitely not a soft persimmon. Despite the lack of fitness after the winter break, young goalkeeper Manuel Neuer alone was enough to make Cartbus' attackers look at the ball over and over again. After 90 minutes, the home team Schalke 04 managed to repel the visiting Ivbus with a score of 2-1 and continued to bite the first-placed Bayer Leverkusen.

A week later, in the 19th round of the league, Cottage hosted eighth-ranked Eintracht Frankfurt, and the refreshed Qin Goode and Shao Jiayi returned to the starting line-up, and the two of them ushered in an explosion at the same time.

In the opening 13 minutes, Shao Jia hoisted a free kick on the left side into the penalty area, and the striker Yura who was ambushed there judged the right place very accurately, and shot at the football pad, which opened the Ketbus goal account, five minutes later, Shao Jia took the ball and feigned a breakthrough, but turned around and knocked the football back to Qin Good, who raised his foot and shot, expanding the score without suspense.

In the second half, the assist was replaced by Qin Goode, who was a big killer on the right side, and he successfully broke through the defense formed by Eintracht Frankfurt's back and full-back three times in a row, assisting left wingers Rivic and Shao Jiayi to score goals respectively, if it weren't for Hofmann's concern that he was too excited and prone to injury, he replaced him in the 75th minute, maybe the score would have been further expanded.

Eintracht Frankfurt only scored a face-saving goal just before the end to take the bus back with a score of 4-1.

In the 20th round on January 30, Cottage Castle made a big splash in the second-to-last Hannover, and trampled the home team under his feet with a 4-0 victory, and Qin Goode was also selected for the 5th time in the 11-man team of the week with a table of 1 goal and 1 pass.

Cottages, who have won two in a row, successfully surpassed Eintracht Frankfurt, Wolfsburg and Werder Bremen, who capsized at the same time, and temporarily ranked sixth, while Bayern Munich and Dortmund, who had a poor schedule in the first half, began to chase after them in the middle and late stages, and are now in three or four places, while Bayer Leverkusen is still unbeaten with 12 wins and eight draws, and is still three points ahead of second-place Schalke with an unbeaten record of 12 wins and 8 draws.

In early February, there was still a small thing in German football: Qin Good's national team teammate Jiang Jun joined Schalke 04 for a transfer fee of 2.5 million euros, and three Chinese appeared in the Bundesliga at the same time, which undoubtedly made domestic fans collectively **, but Schalke 04 and Ketbus have played two rounds of home and away league games, and the two teams have no possibility of meeting again in half a year, which makes fans who want to witness the "Chinese derby" a little disappointed.

Since Schalke's city of Gelsenkirchen was too far away from Otbus, Shao Jiayi and Qin Goode did not have time to greet this unfamiliar fellow countryman, so they only welcomed him on the phone, and then threw themselves into their own intense training.

On February 5, Ivbus hosted Stuttgart, and because the opponent's recent form has been too sluggish, Hoffman even put Qin Goode, Shao Jiayi and others on the bench, hoping to give the main players a chance to rest.

However, Stuttgart immediately hit him in the face, and in the less than 30 minutes of the first half, their captain Sami Khedira won a direct dialogue with Cartbus captain Rost, who broke the ball from the back, made a long run to shake off three defenders, broke through from the left to the left touchline of the penalty area, and followed up on the right by Gebhardt, who cut into the box 13 meters out and fired a low right-footed shot into the bottom right corner, 1-0.

Seeing that the team fought hard for 60 minutes but still had no hope of turning the tables, Hoffman had to overturn his personnel deployment, and Shao Jiayi and Qin Goode went into battle.

However, the first time Qin Gude tried to break through with the ball, he hit a wall head-on.

Sami Khedira, Qin Goode turned over from the turf and sat up, looking up at this tall back waist of one meter nine, and couldn't help but squint.

This guy ...... Growing so tall, yet so strong, running so fast and covering such a large area!

Don't let people live!
