712 [China's national ball is football?] 】

In New China, China's national sport is table tennis.

In the Republic of China, China's national sport is football.

From the 20s to the 40s, China's football level represented the football level of Asia. It may be difficult for future generations to imagine, but the real situation is like this.

From 1923 to the outbreak of the All-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, as long as the Chinese team participated in the football match of the Far Eastern Games, it could win the championship every time, which can be said to be a hoisting of little Japan.

The core leader of the Chinese football team is Li Huitang, who was elected secretary general of the AFC in 1954, vice president of FIFA in 1965, and vice president of the Asian Football Association and the World Football Association in 1966. In the 1976 selection of the German "Global Football Magazine", Li Huitang scored 1,860 goals, and was ranked as the "world's top five football kings" along with Pele, Beckenbauer, Di Stefano and Puskas.

At this time in China, Li Huitang was recognized as the "King of Football" and was called the "King of the Far East" by Japan. There are also good deeds who make up a slip: Mei Lanfang has to watch the play, and Li Huitang has to watch the ball.

In the historical 1936 Berlin Olympics, Wang Zhengting did not participate, and the real leader was Li Huitang.

In order to raise funds for the Olympic team members, Li Huitang set off with the football team more than two months in advance, relying on the ticket revenue of the games along the way to raise funds. They played all the way from China to Germany, playing a total of 27 games, with 23 wins and 4 draws. They saved money and went through all the hardships and dusts to come to Berlin, and finally saved enough money for the Olympic Games for Chinese athletes.

However, due to the journey all the way, Li Huitang and his football players were exhausted, and lost to Great Britain with a score of 0:2 in the Olympic game, and were eliminated in the first round.

This is a respectable athlete who single-handedly supported China's trip to the Berlin Olympics.

Although defeated, it is still glorious.

Well, we also have to mention Alan Tam's father, historically, Tan Jiangbai was the deputy leader of the Chinese Olympic delegation.

In addition, the national martial arts performance players are also worthy of praise, when the football players raise money through the competition, the martial arts players also make money by performing in the country. Historically, China was able to send 69 athletes to the Berlin Olympics, and the money was earned by the athletes themselves.

Although the Nanjing government also provided funds, it was stripped down layer by layer, and there were very few in the hands of athletes, and that little money was enough to buy ferry tickets.

Now with Zhou Hexuan's sponsorship, the football players finally don't have to work hard. Not only can you come to Germany in advance to train and adapt, but you can also play exchange matches with German teams, not to mention winning Olympic medals, at least you will not be eliminated in the first round.

At the moment, the friendly match against the Chinese team is a local team in Berlin, which is probably in the top 10 in the whole of Germany.

There was a light rain in the sky, and the opponent was China, and there were not many spectators at the scene, only more than 1,000 people watched, and they sat in the audience.

The members of the German football team also didn't take the Chinese team seriously at all, and if it weren't for Zhou Hexuan's appointment to arrange the event, it is estimated that these Germans would have refused to play against the Chinese team.

The German team kicked off first, kicked the ball out like a walk, and then slowly hit the door of the Chinese team. "Flying General" Ye Beihua rushed away, cut off the ball with one kick and passed it vigorously, "Tan Tongtou" Tan Jiangbai jumped hard, caught the ball accurately with his head, and then passed to Li Huitang in the front court with a big foot.

Li Huitang was not in a hurry after receiving the ball, and it was not until the German team's back came forward to press that he suddenly accelerated and easily played with a crotch. The defenders of the German team also rushed up, and Li Huitang solved it easily with another ball, and then came to a 30-meter volley.

World Wave!

The German goalkeeper didn't have time to react at all, subconsciously jumped and pounced, and half a palm successfully blocked the way of the football.

But it didn't work, and although the ball was changed direction, it still flew quickly to the corner of the net.

The ball was scored, and in less than two minutes of the opening game, the Chinese team was already ahead.

The German goalkeeper stood up a little confused, shook his numb and aching right hand and said to himself: "The strength of the Chinese dwarf is so great!" ”

Li Huitang, but a pervert who once kicked the ball net.

"Good shot!"

Zhou Hexuan stood up and slapped suddenly, after watching this game, he was going to take his wife back to China to move.

Zhang Leyi was a little reserved, but just stood up and applauded, Yu Peichen and Sun Yongzhen had already started yelling and cheering.

The crowd was booed, and it seemed that the German fans were very unhappy.

However, the German players on the field began to pay attention, not as casual as at the beginning, and the scramble and running became more active.

In the 14th minute of the game, Ye Beihua received a pass from his teammates, which was as fast as a lightning bolt into the midfield, and the German players who wanted to stop him couldn't catch up at all, and he was worthy of being called "General Fei".

Soon it was Li Huitang who received the pass, and this time his performance was even more exciting, connecting three people to go straight to the net, and finally even people took the ball into the net together.

The faces of the German players were black, although they were not the top teams, they could be ranked in their own country, and they were beaten 2:0 in less than 15 minutes. If the first goal can be explained by luck, but the second goal completely reflects the strength, the bones of this Chinese team are very hard.

Finally, the German players showed their real skills, and Li Huitang was taken care of, with two players to mark at any time and anywhere.

However, it was still useless, until the halftime whistle sounded, the Chinese team had already scored 3:0, and Li Huitang directly scored a hat trick, which made the boos in the audience louder and louder.

Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but say to the coach: "That, let's save some face with others, at least let others score a goal." ”

The coach of the Chinese Olympic football team is called Yan Chengkun, he doesn't understand fart, and he can only be regarded as a fan at best. But people have money, and they used the titles of chairman of the South China Sports Association and the prime minister of the Hong Kong China Bus Company, and then got the coaching position through bribery and sponsorship.

The real coach of the football team is none other than the captain Lee Hye Tang.

Hearing Zhou Hexuan say this, Yan Chengkun hurriedly ran to Li Huitang, who was drinking water, and said, "Guangliang, Mr. Zhou asked you to release water, after all, this is a friendly match, don't let your German friends lose too ugly." ”

"Okay, let's get them three goals in the second half." Li Huitang smiled brightly, obviously it was not the first time they had played a water race.

The Far Eastern king is still very powerful, saying that he will let three balls, and it will not be until the last 10 minutes that the Chinese team will lock the victory with a 4:3 advantage.

After the game, the captain of the German side took the initiative to shake hands, obviously completely convinced, and knew that the Chinese team was releasing water. Even, the other party also asked for Li Huitang's jersey and autograph, saying that he wanted to take it back and treasure it.

Li Huitang came to Zhou Hexuan shirtless, scratched his head and said, "Mr. Zhou, can you arrange a more powerful opponent for us, otherwise it will be boring to fight." ”

"Yes, absolutely." Zhou Hexuan laughed.

As a Chinese who has crossed over in the 21st century, how has Zhou Hexuan ever seen Chinese football so awesome? It is indeed worthy of being China's national sport.

Germany did not have a special sports department, and sports work was under the control of the internal government, and after Hitler attached importance to sports, the exclusive agency was renamed the "Reich Sports Bureau". Zhou Hexuan met with the director of the Imperial Sports Bureau two days ago, and it was easy for the other party to arrange a few decent friendly matches.

Li Huitang suddenly said a little shyly: "Mr. Zhou, I only brought three sets of jerseys, and I gave one to the Germans just now, and I'm afraid I can't change the rest." Can you ......"

Our Mr. Zhou was still very angry, and waved his hand: "All team members, five sets per person." What I have is money, you are only responsible for kicking the ball well, and I will solve the rest! ”

"Thank you then." Li Huitang said happily.
