Volume 1: Upstart Municipal Party Committee! Chapter 1005 The Killer Ball Before the End

Next chapter

The reason why Fang Zhicheng asked Zhao Qingya to buy the team was not because he was an avid football lover, but because football had enough charm. Sports and music are two sports that have no borders, and they are also a golden key to open up cross-border trade. Hongda Group is no longer satisfied with the province and the domestic market, if you want to go out of the border, you must have a channel, from the perspective of some domestic investment directions in recent years, football is a good field.

However, if Hongda Group invests in a domestic company in China and succeeds, and then switches to some European giants, it will seem to be a matter of course, and at the same time more selective, with a higher probability of success.

Zhao Qingya can obviously understand the deep meaning of this, so she invests a lot of money. The acquisition of a Chinese Super League club does not require much capital, including a series of training bases, with an investment of about 800 million yuan. But the more critical is the annual operator, the annual funding of a Chinese Super League club will be about 7-800 million yuan, especially the circulation and transfer between players, which requires a team of professional football managers to operate.

Zhao Qingya hired a team of internationally renowned football managers to take charge of the construction of the new team, which is expected to achieve a breakthrough within two years.

Huainan's Huaxia Super Football Club was successful in 2009, but it has been hovering in the league rankings, and although there is no big problem with relegation every year, it has never entered the first-line camp. So now the club is putting a lot of energy into the FA Cup.

The FA Cup is another competition organized by the Football Association, and unlike the league's points system, the FA Cup adopts an elimination system. The FA Cup, formerly known as the National Football Championship, has eight second divisions, four amateur leagues, two university league teams and two AFC City League teams, in addition to the Super League and First Division teams.

Today's match with Huainan Hongda football team is an amateur team from Ganzhou Province, they are the champion of the AFC City League to advance to the second round, in the past few football cups, played the role of a dark horse many times, the last round eliminated a Xiangbei League team to advance, so the strength should not be underestimated.

It looks like it's a game with a lot of disparity, but it's not, and an amateur team like this is hiring a team with professional quality.

Under Zhao Qingya's arrangement, the four of them took a business car and soon came to the Xin'ao Stadium in the same city area of Qionghan. The Xinao Stadium is one of the core projects of the Qiongjin part of the Qionghan city, Yanjing has already successfully hosted an Olympic Games, and in the planning of the leaders of Huainan Province, Qiongjin also has the strength to run for the Olympic city. The ENN Stadium is a sports venue built for this purpose, and the design concept and scale are no less than the Bird's Nest.

After stepping into the stadium, Fang Zhicheng felt a lively atmosphere, the blue jersey is very conspicuous, and it is initially estimated that there are more than 10,000 people.

Zhao Qingya explained with a smile: "The match day of the football team is the corporate culture day of Hongda employees, and about 2,000 employees of Hongda Group will cheer for the home team in the stadium. ”

Fang Zhicheng shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "There seem to be a lot of people, but many of them are trusts. ”

Zhao Qingya smiled and said, "I can't say that." Now that the group has set up a fan association, these people are not pseudo-fans, they are solid fans of the team, and they will follow the team wherever it goes. ”

Fang Zhicheng nodded with a smile and said, "It's a little interesting." ”

Because of the special identity of Zhao Qingya and his entourage, a special position has already been set up in the venue, Fang Zhicheng paid attention to it, although there are still several rows of front seats in the front row, but all the positions in this row are leather sofa seats, obviously for VIPs. Mineral water and glasses were placed in each position, as well as a few pages of red cardboard, Fang Zhicheng flipped through the cardboard, which was the list of players in the preliminary round of the two teams and the list of referees for this game.

Fang Zhicheng had watched a similar ball game in college before, where had he enjoyed such treatment. However, this is also understandable, the big boss of Hongda Group took his friends to watch the game, which is a great honor.

A sharp whistle sounded, the football began to move continuously from the middle circle, and the Hongda team had a clear advantage over the amateur team opposite, so although the Ganzhou amateur team had the right to kick off, soon the ball had reached the feet of the Hongda team. However, after the Hongda team won the ball in the backfield, they did not carry out ground passing and cutting cooperation, but chose the strategy of long pass and hanging, directly hitting the ball into the opponent's second half, relying on the high school striker in front to win the ball, and then attacking on the spot.

Fang Zhicheng doesn't particularly understand the rules of football matches, so in addition to Qin Yuming and Zhao Qingya, the club also arranged a female commentator to explain the game to the three people.

"Because of the requirements of the FA Cup, in this game, none of our foreign players played, and all relied on local players to play." The voice of the female commentator is very good and penetrating, even on the pitch full of people, it is a wonderful enjoyment, "However, the opposing players have adopted a dense defensive strategy, and now eleven people are surrounding the penalty area, and they will play a counterattack appropriately, so it is very difficult to achieve results in a short period of time." ”

The referee's whistle sounded, a player of the Ganzhou amateur team fell to the ground in pain, the referee made an offensive foul gesture, and the female commentator sighed: "Although at home, the referees are not necessarily on our side, because they also have the mentality of sympathizing with the weak, so when there is a physical confrontation, although our players can have an advantage, the referee's penalty scale will be more biased towards the amateur team." ”

Fang Zhicheng said: "He seems to be very badly injured, and he has already come up on a stretcher." ”

The female commentator smiled: "This is just a trick, and it is also their usual trick, knowing that it is not the opponent to meet the enemy head-on, so they frequently create injuries to delay the time of the game." If the football game is interrupted for a long time, then no matter how strong our team is, I am afraid there is not much that can be done. ”

Fang Zhicheng also tasted the secret, the Ganzhou amateur team knew that it was not the opponent of the Huainan Hongda team, so it would deliberately create the illusion of being violated in the process of physical confrontation, so that the referee would frequently interrupt the game and return the ball to the Ganzhou amateur team. At the same time, the Ganzhou amateur team can effectively drain time by using delaying tactics, and if the game ends up in a penalty shoot-out in the form of a draw, it will not only be a matter of strength, but also a test of luck.

Fang Zhicheng sighed: "I appreciate the Ganzhou amateur team a little. "It's not going to be glamorous to play like this, but it's a strategy of winning more with less, and if you go head-to-head, you're going to lose the game, so why not look elsewhere.

However, after 30 minutes, there were bursts of boos on the pitch, and fans began to demand refunds.

Zhao Qingya also frowned, although she had the advantage on the field, a super league club team was made by an amateur team without the slightest solution, which was obviously not what she wanted to see.

Qin Yuming took a sip of water, but said, "I didn't expect the football game to be so interesting." ”

Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly: "You are a layman watching the fun, right?" ”

The first half passed quickly, the game was still 0-0, and the end was unexpected.

Fang Zhicheng took out his mobile phone and searched for the information of the Ganzhou amateur team through the guò browser, and found that in the previous FA Cup matches, the Ganzhou amateur team also dragged the Super League club into extra time by delaying the game, and although they still lost the penalty shootout in the end, they still received high praise.

At halftime, a group of cheerleaders wearing blue crop tops and short-sleeved T-shirts and jeans ran into the center and danced to the dynamic music, and the players had already entered the locker room one after another.

Fifteen minutes later, the player re-entered the pitch and soon fell into the opponent's trap again, and the player began to fall to the ground frequently, even lying on the ground without touching it and began to cramp.

Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly: "What's the situation? ”

The female commentator said helplessly: "Their reason is that professional team players can't adapt to this kind of high-intensity confrontation, so their bodies are weak and prone to leg cramps." ”

"It's a deserved, despicable reason." Even Qin Yuming's good temper is a little unbearable.

Seventy minutes into it, the opponent began to make frequent substitutions. After the substitution came up, it was also the previous "lying grass" tactic, so basically forty-five minutes in the second half, adding up to not playing smoothly for five minutes, and the players of the Hongda team also began to be anxious, even if they had the opportunity, they did not have enough patience to pour their feet, but sent them directly into the penalty area, and then they were blocked back by the chaotic penalty area.

At the seventy-fifth minute, the goalkeeper of the Ganzhou amateur team was about to kick the goal kick, only walked a few steps, suddenly bent his leg and fell to the ground, with a painful expression on his face, and then the referee helplessly blew a whistle and cleaned up the coach's seat.

"Goalkeepers can cramp too!" The female commentator simply rolled her eyes, revealing a speechless look.

Fang Zhicheng sighed: "A game has reached this point, it is no longer a game, I am afraid there are other stories." ”

The female commentator nodded and said, "The strength behind this Ganzhou amateur team is unusual. ”

As the game passed minute by minute, because of a lot of garbage time, the game entered overtime, and the time on the electronic screen had been displayed for 98 minutes, and the Hongda team got a corner kick opportunity in the front court.

A high-speed falling parabola streaks through the air and finally finds the lurking man at the back point, and he leaps high, the ball refracted and finally sank into the net.

"Lore! The ball is in! "The audience is boiling!

That's the beauty of football!
