Chapter 206: Group Promotion

"Beep!"

"Look at the majestic him, his legs are like a motor!"

"Twisting the wave kicks the top melon, and everyone who has a mouth praises him!"

"The most boastful (the most boastful)!"

"Kid Zhi Kejia (Young Man Zhi Kejia)!"

"Formation footwork, practice day and night, practice real kung fu, don't spend a vacation!"

"Kick well, praise cheer, energy, hard work, plus two."

"The innovation of shooting moves will not be bad at all!"

"Attack, attack, attack, attack!"

"Shoot, shoot, shoot it!"

"Good twist, kicking ghost horse."

"He's the only one who can dominate!"

In the singing of the voice, the World Youth Championships in six venues started one after another.

This is the third time that the Chinese youth team has participated in the World Youth Championships, and it is also the most confident and exciting session for the audience.

Recalling the 83 and 85 World Youth Championships, people will think of Li Huayun and Gao Hongbo for the first time, and when it comes to this World Youth Championships, Ou Chuliang, Li Tie, Li Jinyu, Zhang Xiaorui and others, fans are like a treasure.

"Suddenly, it's Zhang Xiaorui again, worthy of China's Maradona, hehe." Zhang Lu's senses for Zhang Xiaorui are very good, Zhang Xiaorui's dribbling is delicate and not unique, whether it is passed or ejaculated at the last moment, it can't be seen at all.

With Zhang Xiaorui in front of the ball, the overall offensive rhythm of the Chinese team will change with his changes. Sometimes it's lightning fast, sometimes it's a wave.

"Zhang Xiaorui already has a trace of the shadow of the classical front waist!"

The camera had already followed the ball passed by Zhang Xiaorui, and at this time Zhang Lu was still praising his family.

A simple short-range overhead, before all the defenders of the American team could react, Sun Zhi and Li Jinyu had already stepped forward in place.

The two stabbed into the hinterland of the American team like two sharp knives, one in the light and the other in the dark.

After Sun Zhi got the ball, his left foot was smooth, and he rushed towards the bottom line again.

The goalkeeper of the American team hurriedly stuck to the near post to defend the near corner, looking at Sun Zhi, who was getting closer and closer to him.

Under the bag of the defender, Sun Zhi's passing and shooting routes are getting narrower and narrower. Seeing that he was about to rush in front of the opposing goalkeeper, the ball was either out of bounds or confiscated by the opponent's steal.

At the last moment, Sun Zhi made an arc with his right foot in the air, as if he wanted to take advantage of the last gap to cross.

The defender of the American team didn't say a word, fell to the ground and flew to the shovel, and his whole body stopped in front of Sun Zhi.

However, in the next second, he was the only one who flew out.

In full view of everyone, in such a narrow space, Sun Zhi actually stopped the ball with his right foot.

In front of him is the American defender who has just slid past him, and then behind him is the goalkeeper of the American team who is staring wide-eyed.

Looking at the other party's surprised eyes, the corners of Sun Zhi's mouth curled slightly: "I want to cross, but not just now, but now." ”

As he spoke, Sun Zhi lifted his toes and lifted the ball high under his feet.

Only then did the goalkeeper of the American team react and hurriedly turned his head to chase back.

"Bang!"

There was a crisp sound at the back point, and Li Jinyu, who had a watermelon peel on his head, pushed the ball into the net with his forehead under the restraint of the headband.

"Hey, the ball is in!" The director's mouth in front of the broadcast camera was almost in a semicircle. Anyway, it's just a broadcast, and the fans don't look at his face when they listen to the voice. Under the "strong request" of Director Zhang, these football hosts of CCTV gradually began to refuse to put on makeup before the broadcast.

Of the more than 9,000 fans in the stadium, one-third came from China. Coupled with the local Chinese and Chinese fans, almost half of them came to cheer for the Chinese team.

Amid the shouts of the fans, Li Jinyu crossed the plastic runway and came to the bottom of the stands. Throw the fans' heads and leave a wonderful watermelon photo.

"The World Youth Championships are off to a good start, Jianlibao shows its might"

"Sun Dasheng's trick in front of the gate, Li Tianwang's head hammer meritorious"

"Sweet King Watermelon, Not Sweet No Money"

(Looks like something else mixed in...) )

The news of the national youth team's 1-0 victory over the United States quickly spread back to China, which cheered many fans who followed the World Youth Championships.

"With this victory in hand, there is a chance that you will advance!"

"Yes! Fuck the old beauty! If we can't make it, don't even think about it! ”

"Jianlibao is the hope of the future of the national team! Look at what other people are playing, it is delicate, it is organized, and it is much better than the guys in the national team who only know how to cross! ”

In the praise of the fans, the Jianlibao youth team soon ushered in the second game of the group stage.

Africa's black star, Ghana, has always produced excellent athletes, and as the third runner-up at the Barcelona 92 Olympics, Ghana's strength should not be underestimated.

Soon after, Ghana took advantage of a quick counter-attack and was cut through the door guarded by Apia by Acchulian.

The opponent's striker had already burst into the penalty area with the ball, and Ou Chuliang had no choice but to attack and block. The opponent did not choose to face it head-on, but flicked the ball to the side, and Appia, who followed up, was only left with an empty goal in front of him.

After falling behind by one goal, the youth team began to look for a counter-attack.

Hungry for the World Series and compelled to prove themselves in a tournament like the World Junior Championships, the players began to play against Ghana with some intensity.

The players are in good spirits and running positively. Coupled with the formation of 5 midfielders, it is easy to control the situation in the midfield, and the players have been confident to equalize the score or even overtake after falling behind.

However, some players who lost their minds in order to equalize forgot that Ghana is a team with strong individual ability and poor organization.

When the two of them frequently used their speed to break through, they immediately fell into the "trap" of the other party.

Sun Zhihe's speed of discussion is fast, but after all, it is a personal brute force.

In particular, the speed of the two often disconnected the midfield, so until the final break, they did not break through the door guarded by the Ghana team.

At halftime, Zhu Guanghu made timely adjustments, dredged the obstacles in the hearts of the players, and determined the playing style of steady and steady, step by step, layer by layer, and fatal blow.

In the second half, the calm youth team almost controlled more than 80% of the scene.

Using their own skills and tacit pass-and-receive movements, the players began to slowly encroach on Ghana's "territory". When the opponent's defense line slowly retreated to the extreme, Zhang Xiaorui would pass the ball back to the midfielder to reorganize the attack.

It's always hard to break through dense positions, but Ghana's defense is like a piece of dough, constantly squeezing and pulling under the control of the youth team. No matter how flexible the flour is, there will always be a moment when there is a gap.

In the 74th minute, when he noticed that there was someone behind him, Zhang Xiaorui, who was facing the ball, deliberately missed his foot, and then immediately spared half a circle to the left and accelerated towards the front.

The Ghanaian defender apparently didn't expect Zhang Xiaorui to make this move on purpose, and when he spotted the ball, the black and white elf had slipped between his legs.

With the cheers of the fans, Zhang Xiaorui, who had already turned around, immediately caught up with the ball and rushed towards the opponent's penalty area from the center.

At this time, Ghana's defenders obviously did not expect Zhang Xiaorui to break through the defense line so easily, and accelerated the sprint without obstacles, and he was chaotic for a while.

In the absence of organization, two defenders from the left and right sides ran at the same time to form a bag for Zhang Xiaorui.

In the face of the attack between the two, Zhang Xiaorui's upper body shook from side to side, and there was a trace of Ronaldo's pendulum.

Taking advantage of the gap when the opponent's right defender turned around, Zhang Xiaorui made a smooth right foot and walked the ball over from the opponent's right side. And when he is on par with the opponent's position, he strikes first with an undetectable impact.

The referee didn't pay attention to the homeopathic impact caused by this kind of running, but because of Zhang Xiaorui's collision, the two defenders on the other side immediately stuck together, and they could only watch Zhang Xiaorui disappear.

The continuous passing made all the cameras focus on Zhang Xiaorui, and at this moment, fans seemed to see Maradona in this Chinese black guy.

Strong, agile, and unstoppable.

Whether it is the dribbling technique at his feet or the grasp of timing, as well as the judgment of people's hearts and the use of court rules, Zhang Xiaorui's series of achievements immediately showed a world-class level in front of the world.

Unfortunately, there were only more than 7,000 fans watching this game, and the attendance rate was even worse than the previous game.

But at this moment, Zhang Xiaorui, who is one person and the ball, was not affected at all.

Although he accelerated with the ball, he also left three defenders behind. In the camera, his speed with the ball is still not slow, but everyone knows that don't look at this black guy strolling around, but every step he takes is secretly murderous.

Finally, Zhang Xiaorui dribbled the ball into the Ghana team's penalty area, and other defenders also made up for him in time.

At this moment, Ghana's players have formed a circle against Zhang Xiaorui.

In the case of a wolf in front and a tiger in the back, Zhang Xiaorui decisively stepped on the ball at his feet, and at the same time used the defender to resist the people behind him.

Zhang Xiaorui, who stopped in place, stunned the opposing defender, and subconsciously stretched his legs forward to make a steal.

Taking advantage of this change in rhythm, Zhang Xiaorui accelerated suddenly. After kicking the ball between the legs of a player, it rushes out from the other side of the team.

"Hey, it's gone again!"

In Zhang Lu's surprise, Zhang Xiaorui, who had been separated by the ball, just wanted to catch up with the ball, but another red figure suddenly rushed out of his side. He caught up with the ball before him and pushed it into the corner.

Zhang Xiaorui, who reacted, was stunned for a moment, then turned around to keep up with the pace of discussion and ran towards the fans on the sidelines.

"Xiao Yi, it's good!"

"Our boxing champion is out! I can score goals in the World Youth Championships! ”

"Hahaha, the girl kicked well, kicked well!"

"Lao Tzu can score goals in the World Preliminaries, why do you score a goal in the World Youth Championships, what's wrong?" After throwing a few punches at the teammates who rushed over and touched his head, and after breaking them up, Zhang Xiaorui was the only one left in front of him.

"Gazi, this goal counts as your assist!" Deliberation triumphantly.

"Help a P attack! If you don't grab it, Lao Tzu can shoot it himself! Although Zhang Xiaorui scolded and scolded, he still stepped forward and hugged him.

The next day, the news of the World Junior Championships once again made headlines in major newspapers.

"Shock! Maradona's assist of the century at the World Youth Championships"

"Thousands of miles to ride alone, Zhang Xiaorui's wonderful dragon"

"Ten thousand flowers have passed, the leaves do not stick to the body, Jianlibao young players play the entire defense line of Ghana"

Although the 1-1 draw made some discerning fans a little "dissatisfied", Zhang Xiaorui had four consecutive "century" assists, but it had a little tribute to Maradona.

After the video of this game spread, many scouts in Europe and the United States began to pay attention to the Chinese team's field. As long as Zhang Xiaorui is half the level of Maradona, these scouts can also make a lot of money.

After all, not everyone can add the word "Maradona" to the suffix of their nickname.

On June 22, due to the overlap with the final match time of the group stage of the World Preliminaries, CCTV deliberately broadcast the World Preliminaries on five sets and the World Youth Championships on one set.

In fact, for both teams, qualification from the group stage is almost assured. However, out of concern and promotion of young people, CCTV still chose to broadcast the World Youth Championships with a set of higher ratings.

All the fans happily sat in front of the TV and switched their thumbs back and forth between the "1" and "5" of the remote control.

For some fans, it was the first time in their lives that they watched the national game so easily.

"What if both sides lose! Anyway, they're all out of line! ”

"What else are you looking at when you're out?"

"Lao Tzu is willing to see it, can't you? If you don't want to see it, go and shoot two plates of cucumbers! Hahahaha! ”

"Hmph, dead ghost!"

For the youth team, the result of this match will determine the final position in the group stage, as well as the strength of the opponent after qualifying.

However, at this time, the coaching staff was not as professional as in later generations, and Zhu Guanghu and others, like other domestic coaches, had no plans for these at all, and were completely interested in what they were playing.

Especially the expansion of this World Youth Championships, for Jianlibao, one more game will earn one. The Football Association does not actually have any other requirements other than to qualify from the group.

In the last group game, Ireland, with one win and one loss, and the Chinese youth with one win and one draw, played more relaxed.

The match between Ghana and the United States has ended, Ghana is currently 2-1 and has 7 points to top the group, and the United States team has lost all 3 games and is out of the bottom of the group.

For Ireland and the youth team, whoever is second in both has a great chance of qualifying. Of course, the chances of the youth team qualifying are still greater than those of Ireland, and even if they lose this game, the competitiveness of 4 points is enough to compete with the third place in the other groups.

As soon as the game started, the players of both teams played more relaxed. Zhu Guanghu also took into account the protection of the players, although Zhang Xiaorui and others started, they had long planned that they would be replaced after playing about half the court.

After the opening, the two teams played very relaxed, after all, no one was in a hurry to attack.

In the 12th minute, Li Tie burst into the Irish penalty area with the ball and was brought down by the opposing defender and won a penalty for the Chinese youth team.

Unfortunately, Sun Zhi's penalty kick was saved by the Irish goalkeeper, and Li Jinyu, who shot up, was stuck behind by the opposing defender, and finally regretted missing the good game.

Only five minutes later, Li Weifeng pulled the opponent's winger in the penalty area and caused him to fall to the ground, and also gave the opponent a penalty.

"Brother Ou, I'm sorry, I really can't pull him."

"It's okay, it's okay." After Ou Chuliang dragged Li Weifeng up from the ground, he patted the dust on his body, "Next time, be decisive, kill him before he bursts in!" ”

"I see." Li Weifeng lowered his head, looking a little unwilling.

"Don't worry, their goalkeeper can save the penalty, and your brother can save too! Look at Brother Ou's! Ou Chuliang comforted.

"Good!"

But penalties are not the goalkeeper's final say.

When the Irish winger kicked his self-directed penalty to the other side of Ochuliang's save, the Chinese fans in the stadium let out a sigh.

The youth team, which was behind by one goal, did not give up, although they returned to the locker room with a score of 0-1 in the first half, but with the experience of playing behind Ghana with the goal, the players did not have any burden and pressure in their hearts.

In the second half, Zhu Guanghu still replaced Zhang Xiaorui in advance according to the pre-game plan.

The second and third in the group are actually no different for Zhu Guanghu.

As for the first place in the group, Zhu Guanghu has actually thought about it, but looking at the current form, at least three more goals must be scored to ensure that he can beat Ghana on goal difference. So after thinking about it, Zhu Guanghu still decided to focus on protecting the team members.

After Zhang Xiaorui went off the field, the youth team did not lose its offensive pillar.

On the contrary, when Li Jinyu retreated and Li Tie stepped forward, Er Li played no less control in the midfield of the youth team than when Zhang Xiaorui was there.

Many new scouts in the stands were eye-catching, and the performance of "Maradona" was not seen, but both of them also have their own characteristics, and if they are well trained, they can also be sold for a good price.

With the extreme cooperation of Er Li, Ireland's shrinking defensive line finally had problems.

Li Tie's strong tearing made the Irish defenders tired to deal with, and these Europeans still wanted to use their bodies to do their best, but under the figure of the "devil's flesh man" trained by Li Tie, they frequently hit a wall.

Li Tie used his body to rush left and right in the opponent's front court, and Li Jinyu, who was hiding in his teammate's side, saw the opportunity and suddenly exerted force.

Taking advantage of Li Tie to attract the gap of three defenders to defend, Li Jinyu suddenly inserted from behind the opponent. Li Tie leaned on the opponent's body, pushed forward with his left foot, and accurately pushed the ball to Li Jinyu's feet in the moment before Li Jinyu was offside.

Li Jinyu caught up with the ball and lightly buckled, dodged the attacking Irish goalkeeper, and pushed the empty goal into the net.

Li Jinyu, who has scored two goals in this cup, once again ran to the sidelines with his watermelon peel on his head and waved to the fans.

Scored two goals in 3 games and 2 games, if Jianlibao goes far enough, Li Jinyu may not be able to impact the World Youth Championships Golden Boot.

"This watermelon rind is good."

"Uh-huh, the smell in front of the door is very acute, like Philip!"

"That cabbage seems to be a bit capable, too."

"Yes, and he's taller than Edgar, that's his merit. I don't know if he has Edgar to run! If his physical strength is okay, I think even if it's a B2B in Milan, he has a place. ”

Li Jinyu and Li Tie naturally didn't know that the two scouts compared them with the 9th master Inzaghi and the wild boar Davis, and even other Jianlibao members were in the eyes of the scouts, and some well-known European stars had some similarities.

But in the end, the draw did not give Jianlibao's players a letter of introduction to the European club trial, as they still have to look at it for a while. Instead, it was the Irish winger who scored the penalty that was marked as a key symbol by the scouts.

After the two sides drew 1-1, Ou Chuliang also exchanged jerseys with the Irish winger, expressing their recognition of each other's strength.

Throughout the game, the winger took the ball into the Jianlibao penalty area alone at least 10 times, except for Li Weifeng who pulled him down to create a penalty, at least 7 times in front of the attacking Ou Chuliang.

Whether it is a pass or a shot, Ou Chuliang will always let the opponent's attack go in vain.

"You are a very good goalkeeper and I dare say that your name will surely ring all over the world in the future."

"The same goes for you." Ou Chuliang patted the other party's Xiaokan shoulder vest and put the one printed with "Daenmi. The shirt with the word "Duff" was draped over his shoulders, and with the joy of being second in the group, he walked towards the sidelines.
