There was a sound of inhalation in the field, from the corner where the players of Guanglin Middle School were sitting, and then there were happy discussions everywhere, the most unlucky No. 4 position was withdrawn, and the remaining teams could rest assured.

The members of the Guanglin Middle School team looked at their captain with a look of disdain, this thing is also known as good luck since childhood, Nima's quarterfinals and the recognized strongest defending champion are too lucky!

Zhang Guangda smiled bitterly and turned his head to look at Wang Bai who was sitting beside him, and found that his face was twitching slightly, and he couldn't suppress his smile.

"Wang Bai? Are you happy with the result? ”

"No," he whispered, "it's not a good sign, but I can't help but get excited...... Coach, which is tougher to play against, the defending champion in the final or the defending champion in the quarterfinals? ”

Decisiveness is in the final, and in the face of the possibility of successfully defending the title, every player's desire to win will be fully stimulated. Hearing this question, Zhang Guangda naturally understood what he meant, the sooner a team like Hong Kong No. 3 Middle School encounters it, the better.

Looking at the core of the team with an excited look on his face, Zhang Guangda muttered to himself: "But after all, it is Liangang No. 3 Middle School." ”

"It's because it's Lianhong No. 3 Middle School that I am so excited," Wang Bai's eyes couldn't help but light up when he spoke, "For me, this is equivalent to a final!" ”

Liangang No. 3 Middle School, from Liaodong Province, where football is very popular, has won eight consecutive qualifying places in that recognized death zone.

Since the first time it participated in the national competition, the results of Liangang No. 3 High School have never been lower than the top four, and since the third session, it has entered the finals five times in a row and won the championship four times, which is a team with super popularity and popularity. Moreover, they have completed two consecutive championships in the sixth and seventh competitions, and this year they will attack the unprecedented triple hegemony!

In this year's competition, Liangang No. 3 Middle School has seven main players from last year's championship-winning lineup. The players who replaced those who graduated are also very good, so they are generally favored by the outside world and have a good chance of defending their titles in a row.

Their main striker, No. 9 Dong Lifei, is now a senior in high school, and once scored nine goals in the seventh national competition, was the top scorer in the last competition, and was selected for the best team.

He is 1.82 meters tall, strong, fast, has a keen sense of smell in front of goal, and has excellent headers and shooting skills. He is a quasi-professional player who is widely fancied. In this tournament, he has scored five goals in just two games, which also shows his strength.

The captain of Liangang No. 3 Squadron is the core of the team's midfield organization, and the No. 10 player He Wenbin, who is a sophomore in high school, is already the team's starter in the competition last year, and his ball control skills and passing ability are first-class in the national competition, and he is a member of the best team in the last competition.

They also have one winner of the title of best goalkeeper in the previous edition. is also a player in the third year of high school, named Chang Le, since the beginning of the seventh tournament, he has served as the starting goalkeeper for a total of seven games. No goals conceded!

Not only these three players, but also the main squad of Hong Kong No. 3 Middle School has many commendable players, who have also attracted the attention of professional clubs.

The players of Liangang No. 3 Middle School were actually not very satisfied with the results of this lottery, in the internal discussion before the lottery. They assessed the strength of the top eight teams.

Excluding this team, they unanimously decided that the third strongest was Guanglin Middle School.

Because they've watched each team's goal highlights in the group stage. It was found that the individual ability of the players in Guanglin Middle School is absolutely strong, especially No. 19 Wang Bai, who is completely a star performer, and is one of the most outstanding players in the current competition.

And they are very unfamiliar with Guanglin Middle School, rather than encountering this kind of opponent, it is better to play against some relatively familiar old top eight teams.

Their second-strongest opponent is the impressive performance of this year's Black Horse Qizhou Middle School, who was in a group with the last semi-final team Quang Nam Railway Middle School in the group stage, and eliminated them from the competition, showing a very strong technical and tactical level.

This team was also divided into the top half of the zone, so the players of Liangang No. 3 Middle School were really speechless about the draw result. Although they are confident that they will eventually defeat these two opponents, if the quarterfinals and semi-finals are hard-fought battles, it will definitely affect the performance of the final.

And there is always only one strongest opponent in the minds of Liangang No. 3 Middle School, and that is the host Yanjing No. 7 Middle School.

The national competition has been held seven times so far, but the championship is only between two teams, one is Liangang No. 3 Middle School and the other is Yanjing No. 7 Middle School.

The two teams can be said to be long-cherished rivals in the national competition, and their strength is also equal, and every time they meet, they stage a wonderful duel like Mars hitting the earth.

The winners of the first and second competitions were all Yanjing No. 7 Middle School, and the two competitions stopped in the top four because they lost in the semi-finals. In the third competition, the two teams were divided into two halves, and finally met in the finals, winning the championship for the first time in Liangang No. 3 Middle School, and ending the dream of Yanjing No. 7 Middle School for three consecutive hegemony.

In the 4th Tournament, Liangang No. 3 Middle School defeated Yanjing No. 7 Middle School in the semi-finals and finally defended their title, and when they hit the third consecutive hegemony in the 5th Competition, they were defeated by Yanjing No. 7 Middle School in the final, and the championship was taken away again!

In the sixth competition, Liangang No. 3 Middle School ended the defense of Yanjing No. 7 Middle School in the semi-finals and finally regained the championship, and in the seventh competition last year, although Yanjing No. 7 Middle School entered the finals, it still failed to prevent Liangang No. 3 Middle School from defending its title.

This year is the eighth competition, and it is another opportunity to hit the three consecutive hegemony.

The draw results of the sixth and seventh teams were announced one after another, and they were all divided into the lower half of the district, and all the audience in the audience was in an uproar!

There is no other reason, the last one that has not announced the results is the host, Yanjing No. 7 Middle School!

There is only one sign left, the top half, the number one sign!

Yanjing No. 7 Middle School, Qizhou Middle School, Liangang No. 3 Middle School, Guanglin Middle School! The top half is the absolute group of death......

In the face of this result, the team members of Qizhou Middle School covered their faces one after another, and now they don't feel that Guanglin Middle School is less lucky than them, because Yanjing No. 7 Middle School is no less difficult than Liangang No. 3 Middle School.

They couldn't help but lament: Nima, the group stage and the last semi-finals are together, and the quarterfinals will meet the runner-up, will the heavens descend to the Si people?

Even the players of Hong Kong No. 3 Middle School thought: It's an early encounter again, it's okay, the semi-finals will solve Yanjing No. 7 Middle School, and the finals will be nine out of ten, and the teams in the lower half of the district are not worried!

The draw ceremony is over, and tomorrow is the day when the quarterfinals officially begin, and the blessing of the defending champion team of Tolian Port No. 3 Middle School, Guanglin Middle School will also have the opportunity to appear in the live broadcast of CCTV.

The quarter-finals will be played on four pitches at the same time, and the local stations will naturally broadcast the matches live, while the central station will only select one of them for live broadcast, and the other three will be broadcast in recorded mode.

After the opening of the conference center, the results of the draw were immediately announced to the whole country through the media, and the reporters of Haidong TV had already waited outside the conference center to get the matchup table for the quarterfinals, and they all sighed.

Guanglin Middle School actually drew Liangang No. 3 Middle School! Their luck is really bad, it seems that the results of Guanglin Middle School in this competition will stop in the quarterfinals, and they will not be able to break through further.

The camera captured the members of the Guanglin Middle School team coming out of the conference center, and Coach Zhang Guangda was the first to face the reporter for an interview, asking him to talk about his thoughts on the results of the draw.

Coach Zhang said of him: "To be able to reach the quarterfinals, our team's expected goal has been achieved, and we will play with a learning attitude in the next game, and the opportunity to play against Liangang No. 3 Middle School is rare, and I believe the players will gain valuable experience." ”

He didn't say whether he was satisfied with the result or not, and after a quick chat, he said thank you to the reporter and left in stride.

The reporter went to ask Wang Bai, who can often make amazing remarks, but he didn't expect this kid to be obedient, touched his nose and said something that was not painful: "Liangang No. 3 Middle School is very strong, I think we will dedicate a wonderful game to everyone tomorrow." I can't predict the outcome of the game, but of course I hope we win, hehe......"

Back at the hotel, Coach Zhang first gathered everyone to hold a mobilization meeting, the central idea is very clear, put down the burden and strive to win, in the face of an opponent like Liangang No. 3 Middle School, it is not a slogan that can be won casually. He doesn't expect himself to say a few words, everyone will play at a super level tomorrow, the key is to look at the tactical arrangement.

Therefore, the mobilization meeting was very brief, and soon Coach Zhang announced the disbandment, so that everyone could relax in the afternoon, and after dinner, a combat meeting was held in his room at 7 o'clock in the evening.

Wang Bai took the initiative to stay and discussed with Coach Zhang how to deal with Liangang No. 3 Middle School.

To put it in his heart, with his current strength, looking at the entire team of Lianhong Kong No. 3 Middle School, no one can be his opponent if he takes it out. However, the football game is not one-on-one, but eleven people against eleven people, there are no reasonable tactics, lack of cooperation from the players, and he does not want to defeat a strong team like Liangang No. 3 Middle School with his personal ability.

Therefore, it is one thing to have confidence, but it is still necessary to prepare for the war seriously.

The lineup and style of play of Liangang No. 3 Middle School have not changed much compared with last year, so the game videos of the two competitions have reference value. Judging from the two games in this competition, Lian Hong Kong No. 3 Middle School obviously played with ease, did not play at full strength, and did not rush after taking the lead, and the players all seemed to be very relaxed, probably considering the physical reserves.

This is not like Guanglin Middle School, which played exceptionally hard in both games.

Wang Bai and Zhang Guangda spent the afternoon in the room watching the game video, and then discussed the style of play, and the tactical tone of the two did not disagree, it must be a defensive counterattack.

In the face of a team with a sharp attack like Liangang No. 3 Middle School, if you press out to fight against them, it is certainly worthy of respect, but if Guanglin Middle School still wants to win, it is undoubtedly a stupid choice to attack.

Although Wang Bai doesn't like a conservative style of play, he has to admit that in the face of opponents whose comprehensive strength is stronger than his team, it is possible to win the game with a solid defense.

The two of them were at first a little at odds about the formation and personnel arrangement, but after negotiation, they finally reached a consensus. (To be continued......)
