018 There is no way back
The national junior team has a unified ideology of 3,000 yuan per person, and Tang Hong has said goodbye to gambling for five or six years, so he just focuses on participation.
The players of Tianhai Rising Star in the team are equivalent to taking out a month's salary, in Luo Hongkai's tough words: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky!" ”
I don't know, I thought he was going to gamble on his net worth.
However, for the Tianhai Nova players who either moonshine or send the money home, the three thousand yuan that can be taken out now are all advanced from Tang Hong, which can be regarded as all their belongings.
The players of other national junior teams will go abroad this time, and their families will give some pocket money more or less, whether it is to buy a gift or to walk around before returning home, which does not cost money?
So there are 2,000 yuan in the hand, and there are tens of thousands of dollars in the most!
If the money is not enough, ask others to borrow some, and the money will be quickly collected and handed over to Tang Hong, Tang Hong's mind is not on this, and after giving the money to Van der Shier, he said a word.
"Don't look at the odds, just buy the Chinese team to win, don't divide the bet, every stud is stud, we either win all the way to the end, or lose all the way home."
Although Van der Sheer is Tang Hong's coach, there are many times when he admires Tang Hong.
Let the people around you remit the money to their friends in the Netherlands, and also agree with the other party that there is nothing to lose, if you pass the customs all the way, then take 5% of the profit to the other party as a hardship fee.
This is not a technical job at all, it can be done by people, and his friend naturally agreed without hesitation.
After a few days of preparation, the Chinese national junior team has fully recovered both physically and competitively, after all, they are the first time to reverse jet lag, although they have also gone abroad to play Asian Junior Championships and friendly matches, but the jet lag is not big, but the time difference from China to Mexico is so sharp that the contrast between day and night!
On June 19, the World Junior Championships opened.
The focus is poor, so the pace of the tournament is very fast, with four matches on the first day of matchday, with both Group A and Group B starting at the same time to complete the first round.
Tang Hong: After they trained and kept in shape, they watched the live broadcast of the game in the hotel.
From the live broadcast screen, it can be seen that except for the game of the host Mexico, the audience of other games can almost be said to be none!
Like the World Junior World Championships, many of the previous competitions are almost unattended unless they are really attractive or in the second half of the knockout round.
It also has to do with the football atmosphere of a country, if the same game is moved to England or Brazil, no matter how unattractive the game is, many people will come in to watch it to pass the time.
There were a lot of highlights on the first day of the game, and the host Mexico got off to a good start by beating South Korea 3:1.
Mexico, the king of Central and North America, chased three goals in a row with the indomitable momentum of conceding the first goal in the opening game, beating South Korea to the point of losing his soul, and even the goalkeeper of the South Korean team was sent off!
In a game like the U17 age group, emotional excitement is crucial, because the excitement of the players on the field is always contagious, the overall momentum can suppress the opponent, and most of the victory is within reach.
In the other game in the same group, there was an upset, with Congo beating the Netherlands by one goal.
Last year, the Netherlands won the runner-up in the World Cup, and the Dutch stars are all familiar to everyone, Sneijder, Robben, Van Persie and others are active in European giants.
However, Dutch football has begun to show a talent gap, and this time in the World Junior Championships, the Dutch team's most talked-about rising star is only one Depay.
The big clubs in Group B were one-sided.
France 3:0 Argentina.
French demon Benzia scored twice in the tournament and was the most eye-catching player on the first day of the tournament.
After years of silence in French football, since the 87 generation of four little swans into the Mesozoic Era, the new generation is booming, although it has not yet come to the time when Mbappe was born, but there are already many rising stars in this World Junior Championship have begun to debut, Benzia has only received more attention because he is a striker and has scored goals, in fact, the French team in the Zouma, Bakayoko, Mendy, Alai and other players are also promising.
The talent gap in Argentine football is more serious, at the level of U17, it is completely a competition for the quality of the new generation of players, which has little to do with technology and tactics, and there is no way to talk about experience, a Messi who is destined to go down in history as a legend seems to have exhausted Argentina's genius vitality for at least ten years!
Japan got off to a good start in the group stage, winning 1-0 against Jamaica.
The Japanese team that went to the World Junior Championship this time did not have outstanding players of the same age group as Shibasaki Yue and Endo Hang two years ago, but Japanese football is strong as a whole, and it has a big advantage in playing ordinary opponents, and it is more or less a situation of sitting and hoping to win, but it may be difficult to make a big difference.
Asian teams do not have a good record in the World Junior Championships, in the past 20 years in the past 9 World Junior Championships, the best results of Asian teams are only two fourth-place finishes, and they have not even entered the top three, while Burkina Faso, whose national team is a fish belly, has won third place.
If the World Junior Championships are a stage for the superstars of tomorrow, then the World Junior Championships are more about the average quality of the team as a whole.
After all, no matter how strong the hope star is under the age of 18, he has not been tempered in the professional arena, and even if he does, it is just a passing eye, not to mention how much training he has experienced.
On the second match day, the Chinese team is about to make its debut.
Toleon, Corona Stadium.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Chinese team and the New Zealand team met in this stadium.
Van der Hill had nothing to plan for the team before the game, and gave the team a kick-and-go boost.
Van der Hill is not a coach who believes in the spirit of victory, and his pragmatism can be seen in the rigor of his players.
Before the game, the players of both teams were in a circle in their respective halves, hooking each other's shoulders, as the captain of Tang Hong, who planned to let everyone shout slogans to boost morale according to the usual practice, but Zhao Hanchun said to everyone with a solemn face: "This time we crossed the ocean from China to Mexico, for what?" It's not for the unpalatable pies here, it's not for the scenery, it's for the dream! ”
Luo Hongkai interrupted him without hesitation, and the others also looked at Zhao Hanchun suspiciously, not knowing what he was going to say.
"Don't be verbose, what a simple thing, just to win, for honor! Why do you talk so much! ”
Zhao Hanchun's face was ugly and he gave up rebuttal.
I haven't done this motivating job, so I really don't know where to start.
Everyone else knew that if they hadn't smashed three thousand each, Zhao Hanchun wouldn't have been talking nonsense here at all.
Tang Hong doesn't care whether they are for honor or to win money, anyway, as long as they are motivated.
He stretched out his hand and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I only have one word, all of them are all going all out, how can I bow down!"
China, win! ”
The hands of the first 11 people were stacked together, and after vibrating the Three Gorges up and down in unison, they roared in unison: "China, we will win!" ”
The crowd spread out and took their positions.
Zhao Hanchun, who came to the right wing-back position, has long stopped thinking about gambling.
His expression was unprecedentedly solemn, and the jersey he was wearing made him somewhat proud of his ancestors, after all, no one except Tang Hong knew that he was a petty thief before he started playing.
"I really want to see how awesome I can be!"
The New Zealand players are also in formation and ready to kick off.
The match was broadcast live, but the Chinese side did not have a live broadcast of the game, and the match could only be watched through foreign satellite live streaming sources on the Internet.
"The first match of the first round of Group D of the World Junior Championship is about to begin, and the first match of Group C will also be played at the same time as Rwanda and England.
The match between China and New Zealand may be dull, as the Chinese team won the Asian Junior Championship last year, but they have performed very poorly in several warm-up matches this year, and they did not win a friendly match in the first half of 2011.
New Zealand have a couple of players to keep an eye on and could be in Europe within three years to break into the top flight.
The Chinese team started today with 433.
Goalkeeper: Zhang Yinuo.
Defenders: Zhao Hanchun, Liu Tao, Li Ang, Zhang Binyi.
Midfielders: Xie Pengfei, Luo Hongkai, Liu Binbin.
Forwards: Tang Hong, Qin Rui, Luo Jing.
New Zealand's starting XI was 442.
Goalkeeper: Basala.
Defenders: Tuiloma, Laniga, Luke Adams, Lambert.
Midfielders: Valle, Jordan, Eggie, Howison.
Forwards: Payne, Carmichael.
The game starts with New Zealand taking the lead. ”
New Zealand is a Commonwealth country, so their football style is very close to England, which is also an important feature of European football culture export, the style of Commonwealth countries is close to England, and like Brazil, Argentina, the former was colonized by Portugal for nearly three hundred years, Argentina was also colonized by Spain, South American football advocates technology, and look at the European teams represented by technology, Spain and Portugal are the best, and it is logical to look at the player exchanges between them.
New Zealand launched a fast attack immediately after kick-off, their average height is about 5 cm higher than the average height of the Chinese team, and their bodies are also significantly stronger.
But there's nothing new in the offensive style of play.
When Liu Binbin defended the opposing striker Payne at the edge of the penalty area, the latter stopped the ball after receiving a half-high cross from his teammate, and the ball changed direction and knocked Liu Binbin to the ground!
The referee didn't say anything, but Liu Binbin raised his hand to signal that he was fouled.
Leon stepped forward to block the shot and blocked Payne's shot off the line.
At this time, Liu Tao rushed up and dragged him up, and Liu Binbin shouted at him: "Put your hands down!" He knocks you to the ground, and you can't give him a salute in return? Who are you waiting for to help you? ”
Mr. Liu gave up his defense.
New Zealand's corner kick was taken, Liu Tao's header in front of the goal was cleared, and the football flew to the side outside the penalty area.
When Ho Weisen just stopped the ball on the side, Zhao Hanchun, who rushed out of the penalty area, directly put a shovel to destroy the ball out of the sideline, and brought Ho Weisen to the ground.
He got up quickly with neat movements, and looked at Liu Binbin with cold eyes, as if he had given him a demonstration!
Treat those teams who are good at physical confrontation, if you can't compete with the opponent in strength, then you must be more ruthless than the opponent when defending!
This is Zhao Hanchun's principle, and it is also Liu Tao's principle!
As a defensive player, there is no way back on the pitch!
