Chapter 162: World Cup Squad

After Real Madrid eliminated Aston Villa, the "Chinese derby" that many Europeans did not want to see has really become a reality.

It's like LOL's domestic tournament reaching the final, only to find out that most of the two teams are Koreans, and the embarrassment is enough to make many people leave the game.

Wu Jie led Bayern to become the king of Europe, which made it a little difficult for many Europeans to accept.

The two teams that have now reached the final each have a Chinese, and they are both core players.

So after the results of the Champions League final were announced, some voices hoping that UEFA would ban foreign players from participating in the Europa League began to appear, and even some sensationalist "celebrities" made such remarks publicly.

European fans are more direct, everywhere there are voices of "Chinese get out of Europe".

Wu Jie is dismissive of this kind of voice, and his purpose in coming to Europe is very simple, that is, to make money + earn Olympic coins.

The more these people shouted, the more successful he was.

The more angry these people were, the more comfortable he felt in his heart.

European teams, on the other hand, now place more emphasis on Chinese players.

The performances of Wu Jie and Chen Haonan, including other Chinese players in Europe, are proof enough that Chinese is very talented in football.

European football is a commercial league, and everyone's ultimate goal is to make money, at most money and honor together, so what is the reason not to welcome Asian and Chinese talents?

Chinese hate sticks and foot basin chickens so much, and in the end, I didn't see many people boycotting Korean and Japanese goods, but the voice of boycotting domestic products shouted very loudly.

However, when it comes to European players, before the start of the Champions League final, Chinese European players have already finished their league battles.

Wu Jie led Bayern to successive victories over Borussia Mönchengladbach, Werder Bremen and Bielefeld in the last four league games, although they were defeated by Bochum in the final game, but that was because Bayern changed to a full rotation lineup.

After being overtaken by Bayern, Hamburg quickly made the old mistake of dropping the chain, with 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss in the last four games.

Bayern had already won the league title a round before the Bochum match, and were already fully focused on the Champions League final on June 1.

"ET House" held a grand party for Wu Jie after the league with 1,000 people, which was to celebrate his first "Bundesliga Golden Boot" and "Bundesliga Assist King" with 32 goals and 14 assists in 21 games.

This performance is very inhuman, and the most exaggerated goal efficiency in the entire history of Bayern is Gad Muller's record of 40 goals in 34 games and 38 goals in 33 games set in the 69/70 and 71-72 seasons.

But as long as you do the math, you can know that Wu Jie's performance of 32 goals in 22 games is even more exaggerated than Gerd Muller.

Now many people can't help but have an idea: if this guy plays 34 Bundesliga games, will he create 45 goals in a single season, or even 50+ league goals?

In addition, there are Champions League goals, Wu Jie also scored 13 goals in the Champions League this season, only one goal away from the 14-goal record he set, is it possible for him to set a new goal record.

If you add the six goals in the German Cup, Wu Jie has played 34 games for Bayern this season, scoring a total of 51 goals, an average of 1.74 goals per game, once again setting a new record that shocked Europe.

The European media also have to admit that even if Bayern can't win the Champions League this season, Wu Jie's performance is the only one in Europe, and no one can compete with him in "personal data" and "team results".

Barcelona has something to say at this time, Maradona has created 40 goals in 28 games in "Boca Juniors" this season, and also helped "Boca Juniors" win the Argentine First Division.

Although this performance is slightly worse than Wu Jie, it is also half a notch, and Boca Juniors also reached the final in the "Copa Libertadores".

If they can beat Uruguay's Penarol in the final in a few days' time, then Maradona will be equivalent to Wu Jie helping Bayern win the Bundesliga title and the Champions League, and the difference between the two in "personal data" and "team record" is not large.

If Bayern failed to win the Champions League, Boca Juniors won the Copa Libertadores.

Maradona's performance in the 81-82 season should have surpassed Wu Jie.

So whether Wu Jie can win the Champions League or not determines whether he can suppress the South American genius.

At this time, the Spanish media is going to mention Chen Haonan.

Real Madrid, for their part, also completed the comeback against Real Sociedad in the penultimate round of the league, and they also climbed to the top of the league by beating their rivals head-on.

Chen Haonan scored the decisive goal with a long-range shot in the game, which the Madrid media called the goal "champion goal" after the game.

In the past two months, Chen Haonan's performance has become more and more eye-catching, especially after sitting firmly in the start, Real Madrid has finally reached the realm of "playing well and still winning".

At the end of La Liga, Real Madrid overtook Real Sociedad by one point and beat Athletic Bilbao in the Copa del Rey to win the title.

Unconsciously, Real Madrid is only one Champions League away from becoming Spain's first "treble" team.

Chen Haonan also helped the team win the La Liga and Copa del Rey double at the age of 17 years and a month, playing a total of 20 games this season, and starting six league games, four Copa del Rey and two Champions League games.

However, he is far from being as brilliant as Wu in terms of statistics, scoring only three goals and five assists for Real Madrid this season, including one each in the league, Copa del Rey and Champions League.

Such data is not outstanding, but Chen Haonan still received unanimous praise from the industry, because his role cannot be measured by data, which can be seen by a little professional sports media.

He also quietly broke a new record, and he is now the youngest player to score in Champions League history, when he was just 16 years and 10 months old when he scored that goal.

If Chen Haonan can continue to start in the Champions League final, then he will become the youngest player to start in the Champions League final.

This kind of performance has made Chen Haonan the cornerstone of the future in the minds of Real Madrid fans, and everyone is looking forward to his future performance, and who makes him show his potential is too exciting.

China's other players in Europe are naturally not as exposed as these two giants, but it is enough to make Asian countries envious.

Gu Guangming, China's third-most valuable player, has also seen some uptick in his performances at Atletico Madrid in the last two months.

This season, he has made a total of 16 appearances for Atletico Madrid, starting two, scoring his first goal in La Liga in April, and finally scoring one goal and providing one assist for Atletico Madrid, and the team is eighth in La Liga, which is the same position as when he joined.

Overall, Gu Guangming is still in the stage of adapting to the new environment and new teammates, and learning Spanish to communicate.

If he wants to make a splash in the starting line-up next season, he will need to see how he performs at the Summer Cup, in addition to really fitting into the team's tactical system.

Zhao Dayu of Ligue 1 can be said to be alone, but he has made some fame, which is very surprising.

After joining Lyon during the winter break, Zhao Dayu used his strong adaptability, excellent sense of smell in front of goal, excellent shooting skills, and good luck to quickly sit in Lyon's starting striker position, and always score goals.

Wu Jie was also very sad about Zhao Dayu's performance, on the one hand, he felt that Zhao Dayu's height defect was too big and it was difficult to play in high-level competitions.

But this guy can always score goals every time he plays, and now he can have such a performance in Ligue 1, which really makes him feel abandoned, but he still feels too short with him, it's a "big tangle"!

Zhao Dayu was also so entangled in the original plane, except for Su Yongshun's national team in the eighties, the head coaches of the other national teams were not particularly willing to use him, so this bantam tiger staged the national team's three in and three out.

The reason why he can go in and out of the national team is, of course, that the national team will get better results every time he is brought to the national team, but as long as he is excluded from the national team, the Chinese team will always lose, and the results will not be satisfactory.

This situation continued until Zhao Dayu was seriously injured, and everyone calculated that this product was actually the player with the highest goal efficiency in the national team in the early and mid-eighties, and the player with the most goals, and also had the attributes of a lucky general, with his results, eighty percent of them could meet the pre-game expectations.

After the end of Ligue 1 in May, Zhao Dayu made a total of 25 appearances in Ligue 1 and cup competitions, starting 21 of them, scoring a whopping 14 goals and scoring a brace.

This performance eventually helped Lyon to secure relegation in 16th place, and he did help Lyon earn valuable points in a couple of key games, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that he helped Lyon to relegation.

It can even be said that without the few key points he helped Leon win, there would have been relegation.

This little Chinese man who can always score goals has been loved by Lyon fans, and he is the best Chinese player in Europe this season, except for Wu Jie and Chen Haonan, and his value should exceed that of Gu Guangming.

Then some people mix better, and there must be people who mix worse.

Jia Xiuquan was the worst player in the mix, as he was loaned to Serie B by the team.

Lao Jia will also be alone, but his situation is much worse, because the Serie B team Reggina who loaned him has dropped two places from when he came to the end of the season, and almost relegated to the third division.

Of course, this has little to do with him.

Jia Xiuquan often played well in the game, but of course he also made a lot of mistakes in the game.

But in any case, his team has a really poor record.

Wu Jie has called him a lot to comfort him in the past few months, and what a good central defender needs is to try to make mistakes when he is young.

Italian football is also known for its defense, and even Serie B teams have a very good experience.

He was also a little optimistic about this before, and felt that with Jia Xiuquan's ability and potential, he could play as a starter at Udinese.

But he ignored that the growth curve of the central defender is completely different from that of the striker and midfielder, and Jia Xiuquan has to train in Serie B for at least one season before he can go back to compete for the main position.

Finally, Shen Xiangfu, Liu Haiguang, and Chen Jingang, who were nicknamed "three German stinkers" by domestic fans.

Two of the three are in the Bundesliga and one in the Bundesliga.

But the two stinkers in the Bundesliga have become thunderous starting center forwards, and Shen Xiangfu was the main rotation player for Eintracht Frankfurt until the end of the season.

Shen Xiangfu feels that he is much better than Gu Guangming, he played 21 games in at least the second half of the season, and started 7 games, contributing 2 goals and 4 assists, Eintracht Frankfurt ended up in 10th place in the Bundesliga, and he can still play in the Bundesliga next season and can compete for the main position.

But not only can he play in the Bundesliga, Liu Haiguang and Chen Jingang can also play in the Bundesliga next season.

Now Hertha Berlin and Munich 1860 both feel that the deal is very profitable!

Munich 1860 ended up in second place in the Bundesliga and were promoted directly to the Bundesliga.

Hertha Berlin finished the season in third place in the Bundesliga, and after a relegation play-off against Karlsruh, who finished third from bottom in the Bundesliga, they managed to qualify 3-2 over two legs.

Chen played 23 games for Hertha Berlin, starting 19 of them, scoring five goals and providing six assists, and contributed an equally valuable goal in the relegation play-off against Karlsruh.

This performance is naturally very good for a tactical centre-forward.

Liu Haiguang is a little more brilliant in terms of statistics, he played 20 games for Munich 1860, starting 18 games, scoring a total of 9 goals and 4 assists, which is already a bit of a shadow of an empty tyrant.

Both of these stinkers will be able to play in the Bundesliga next season, and there will be four Chinese players in the Bundesliga alone.

Most of these Chinese players finished their league games in May, and since the Champions League final was played at the Feyenoord Stadium in the Netherlands, they do not plan to go to the Netherlands to watch the game, and they will all return to China for the final month of training.

At the end of May, the Chinese team had already released a 22-man squad for the World Cup in Spain.

Lv Hongxiang (74, 22 years old, 178cm, full-back/full-forward/wing-forward/midfielder/forward, Tianjin)

Li Junwei (73, 21 years old, 176cm, full-back/full-back, Guangdong)

Lin Lefeng (71, 27 years old, 177cm, fullback, Liaoning)

Zang Cailing (70, 29 years old, 175cm, fullback, Air Force)

Lu Jianren (75, 22 years old, 178cm, goalkeeper, Beijing)

Li Fusheng (74, 29 years old, 178cm, goalkeeper, Bayi)

Lin Yaodong (83, 16 years old, 185cm, goalkeeper, Guangdong)

Most of this list are old acquaintances from the World Preliminary Championships, in addition to the versatile Lu Hongxiang from Tianjin, the young defender of the Guangdong team Chi Minghua, and Lin Yaodong, who has been haunted by the Hong Kong media.

Ji Minghua is a central defender from Guangdong, who is fast, agile in movement, nimble, good at command and filling, and has excellent skills at his feet, suitable for dealing with technical flow and short strikers.

Lv Hongxiang is also a player who has a great reputation in the original plane, his physical fitness is excellent, his skills are comprehensive, he can play any position on the field in addition to the goalkeeper, and his famous stunt is "cycling", which shows that his foot skills are good, at the age of 28, he went to Japan to help the poor with technology, and in the first year, he ranked second in the all-Japan league scorer list with 15 goals.

Obviously, this is another excellent player whose talent has not been fully realized, and the system shows that his limit potential value is as high as 83, which is still the value of not upgrading him to any special ability, otherwise it will definitely break through 85.

Needless to say, Lin Yaodong's two-month training camp has not only become a nightmare for Chinese forwards, but even Kuwait's strikers have firmly remembered this terrible Chinese goalkeeper.

If it weren't for the fact that he was too young, and the coaching staff of the Chinese team was worried that he would make a mistake in the competition, Lin Yaodong showed a level far beyond Lu Jianren and Li Fusheng in the two-month training camp.

The squad of this Chinese team is enough to scare any opponent to death, at least in Asia, and it is enough to go sideways in Asia without even a string of European players in the front row.

Kuwait, as the current second in Asia, has basically not won the Chinese team in the official training match in the past two months of training, even if there is a strong protest to replace Lin Yaodong later, the Chinese team can still take a little effort to kill the Asian second.

Those frontcourt players who didn't make the final list in the end can still keep Kuwait's backline Alexander.

On June 1, the national team watched the Champions League final with the Kuwaiti national team at the Haigeng training base.

This season, CCTV is still broadcasting the Bundesliga and La Liga on a delayed basis, and later added several Ligue 1 games in which Zhao Dayu performed well.

In the Champions League, CCTV finally chose to broadcast live, who made Bayern and Real Madrid both seeded teams to win the championship.

At this moment, the two national teams and their coaching staff add up to more than 70 people, and of course they can't watch around a ten-inch TV like ordinary people.

At this time, I have to say that the Middle East tyrants are awesome, they came to Haigeng two months ago and saw that although a new accommodation building has been built here, there seems to be no cinema inside, so the tyrants personally placed an order with Japan and forcibly built a small cinema in Haigeng.

So at this time, everyone is sitting in a small theater that can accommodate 100 people, using a 250-inch screen projected by a projector of up to 20,000 dollars, and a stereo system of up to 10,000 dollars to watch the live broadcast.

PS: I just found out that the last paragraph of chapter 117 has been harmonized and has been placed in the "Words of the Writer" in this chapter.
