"It was a surprise that the Chinese Olympic team won a significant victory in Calderón, and we defeated this year's World Junior Champions."

"Some fans may wonder,"

"Why can't a team that can beat the World Junior Championship be able to show up at this year's World Junior Championships?"

"There are three main reasons for this, the composition of the squad hasn't changed much, but a lot of them are already playing in Europe, which is a huge exercise and improvement."

"Second, the spirit of this team, the spirit of this team began to change qualitatively last year."

"The third, and most important, is that Zheng Zhi's birth has raised this team by at least one notch."

"This Olympic team is really exciting, and with the players who are in their playing years, we will have the strongest national team in history."

A friendly match gave Huang Jianxiang a glimpse of the future hope of the national football team.

'Let's cut the camera to the dressing room and see how the players feel after the win.

The first person to switch to the camera was actually Li Yi.

Li Yi is not quite like a commentary interview, after all, his performance after playing in the second half can only be said to be average, wasting a few confrontations with Puyol, and losing the one-knife ball that Zheng Zhi passed to him, he stopped the ball ten meters away.

"Li Yi, is you in a very average state today? Isn't it a bit stressful? ”

The target of the on-site reporters is actually not Li Yi, but many players are taking a shower, and only Li Yi is still sitting on the bench, so he can only interview him.

Li Yi could only bite the bullet.

"It's pressure, the player I'm playing against is a Barcelona first-team player, and I can't beat him when I collide with him several times, and I found my own gap."

"Did you ever think that Zheng Zhi would send you a single knife ball at that time?"

"Yes, but I was still interfered with by the defenders and I made a mistake in stopping the ball."

When he said this, Li Yi's voice became much quieter, and even he was embarrassed to mention that single knife again.

"Striker, it's impossible to be without mistakes, your speed is still good, what is missing is the accumulation of experience in the game."

"Well, I'm not going to be discouraged, in fact, I think I'm still improving, I think I'm pretty good at protecting the ball."

Ball protection?

The reporter was a little confused, but this is a new word.

"Who do you think your ball protector looks like?"

"Ahaha," Li Yi scratched his head, as if this question was not easy to answer.

"I don't know ......"

Zheng Zhi just came out of the shower and almost wanted to laugh.

"Brother Yi, I think your ball protector is like Henry."

"It's Thierry Henry, a Frenchman who just joined Arsenal from Juventus."

"Ah, I know him, he also played for France in the World Cup last year and scored two goals in the first three games. He hasn't scored at Arsenal yet. But as soon as you say, my ball guard really looks a bit like him? ”

"Well, that's right."

And like Henry? The reporter's mind searched for the image of Henry who failed at Juventus, the guy who played as a winger, and Li Yixiang? I don't understand ......

Then he still put the topic on Zheng Zhi.

At this time, the news of the Spanish Olympic Games losing 0:2 to the Chinese Olympic Games in Calderón went viral in Spain, many people did not pay attention to this game at all, everyone was paying attention to how many goals the Spanish national team could win against Austria tomorrow night, and when the news broadcast the news of the Olympic team at 18:00, many Spanish fans who were eating vomited directly.

"Walter?"

"Lost two?"

"Absolutely impossible, how can a squad like the Spanish Olympic Games lose to the Chinese Olympic Games? It must have been the Chinese who gave the money, or some sponsor gave the money. ”

"Friendly matches, don't take them seriously, they're all kicking and playing."

"Then why didn't we win? Come on, you guys are underestimating the Chinese team, you must not have watched the live broadcast, that's why you think so, the Chinese Olympic Games are very strong, they have an excellent midfielder in the team, the hottest newcomer in Europe last week, Zheng, have you heard? I heard that Real Madrid were interested in him. ”

"Huh? Real Madrid became interested in him, that can't be, Real Madrid can't be interested in a Chinese player who hasn't made a name for himself, he's not Raul, he has a Spanish hukou, or a Madrid hukou. Barcelona is still a bit of a possibility. ”

"Barcelona? It's a bit interesting, look at the young Xavi, who was defeated in the confrontation with him, doesn't it say that Xavi and Albelda are the best midfielders of the young generation in Spain? Hehe. ”

"Hehe......"

The match was also covered by several Spanish sports outlets.

"As" newspaper - the National Olympic Games lost to China's National Olympics 0:2? Oh my God, it's like Spain losing at home to Austria tomorrow night, he's incredible! Without Casillas and Raul, the Spanish Olympic team dropped three notches directly. Dominating the game was Bayer Leverkusen's midfield stalwart Zheng Zhi, who settled the game with a direct set-piece goal and a one-on-one assist, and the excellent midfielder is now attracting attention from the giants across Europe.

"Marca" - Spain's rising star Xavi defeated China's rising star China Zheng, in the latter, you can already see the shadow of a world-class midfielder, if I were the president of Real Madrid, I would definitely sign such a promising young man.

World Sports – Lost! The young Xavi and Puyol got lost at the Calderón Stadium and they failed to show their true level in the game, which is not the best Xavi and Puyol.

……

……

The next day, Binyan, the Spanish correspondent of "Sports Weekly", suddenly appeared in the Real Madrid training ground and arrested Real Madrid coach Bosque. Bosque is still very familiar with the reporter from China, walking around the training ground almost every day before the start of the season, interviewing all the Real Madrid stars, Bosque remembers that this guy likes to pull the stars to take photos and then let the stars read Chinese with him. I wonder who he is here for today?

"Ham~" Bosque smiled, "The transfer deadline has passed, and I haven't bought a new person." ”

"Uh," Hamam stroked his midpoint, and the fleshy face immediately laughed.

"I'm not going to interview a star today, I want to interview you today."

"Me? What do I have to interview. ”

"I heard that Real Madrid is interested in our player Zheng Zhi?"

"Chinese players?" Bosque blinked, "At least I didn't. ”

Bosque does not have the right to buy players at Real Madrid, and he really doesn't know who Real Madrid are interested in.

"But if you say Zheng, he's a good player."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Binyan's eyes, but he scolded in his heart, stupid Spanish media, didn't it say that Real Madrid was interested in Zheng Zhi? I thought it was true......

However, Bosque's answer still allowed him to find something surprising, and he can say that it means that he has watched Zheng Zhi's game.

"What do you think of Zheng?"

"A promising lad, I've seen Bayer Leverkusen play Lazio and his performance doesn't match his age, he played at 25 at 19 and I think it's rare, like Raul and Owen who showed talent and maturity at a young age, and I think Zheng is one of them." Bosque touched his shaved chin and commented on Zheng Zhi seriously. Although he does not have the right to buy players, it does not mean that he does not pay attention to European football.

"Do you like players like that?"

"Of course, who doesn't like a player like that? I think he could be the perfect substitute for Redondo if he was at Real Madrid. ”

"Redondo's sub? That's a big compliment. ”

"Hopefully, they can play together." Bosque added.

"Wow~"

"You mean, he can be part of Real Madrid?"

"That's for you, Mr. Chairman."

It can also be seen from this sentence that Bosque actually has some resentment, as the coach of Real Madrid, he has no right to choose to buy players, which is really ridiculous. But he comes from Real Madrid and he is a good guy and he doesn't bother with the club on these things.

"Do you think he'll grow to Redondo's height?"

"I can't assume that only time will tell."

……

……

Soon this interview was put on the "Sports Weekly", which made domestic fans crazy again.

"Damn, Zheng Zhi has received the attention of Real Madrid."

"Playing with Redondo? It's perfect......"

"Bosque seems to really like Zheng Zhi."

"I think one day Zheng Zhi will definitely join Real Madrid!"

"Why Real Madrid? It's better to go to Manchester United! ”

"No, no, no, go to Inter, Inter need him! Ronnie needs someone to feed him the ball. ”

"Milan, Milan! Milan is the team he should go to! ”

……

※※※※

At the Barcelona training ground, Andres Iniesta ran to the first-team site to find Xavi.

"Harvey, you actually lost."

Harvey wasn't angry, his big eyes shone with wisdom.

"I'm losing, but it's not the end of the world, he's really strong."

For opponents who are stronger than him, Xavi is full of respect.

"And I've learned a lot as well, and that's more important than winning or losing."

His eyes were even brighter, and he had been understanding what Zheng Zhi had said to him later.

"What have you learned?"

"Did you finally learn his tricks?"

"Andres, the moves don't matter, I'm not in the same position as you, I'm not the same as you, you just see his passing moves, but I see other things."

Andres Iniesta plays more as a midfielder and winger, Xavi plays as a central midfielder, and of course they will have a different perspective.

"Then you can tell me, I'm curious."

Xavi was silent for a few seconds before trying to put it in more professional terms: "Let's put it this way, I want to be a player like Pep Guardiola, not just about technology, I learned from Zheng that I have vision, insight, control of the pace of the game, and so on. In fact, you should also think about it, it will be beneficial to you. ”

"Vision? Insight? Iniesta touched the back of his head, "These are not my jobs. ”

'But you're right, we should all be more well-rounded, we can't expect our team-mates to help us with anything, but how much we can help our team-mates, that's what the coach said.'

……

……

While everyone was talking about Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi had already flown to Brussels, Belgium with the Chinese Olympic team to prepare for their second match.

The opponent's origin is no smaller than that of the Spanish Olympic team, the Argentine Olympic team. This arrangement is indeed in line with Horton's previous preparation plan, which is to play against world-class teams in friendly matches, rather than looking for Asia's Thailand, the Philippines and the like, so as to quickly improve the strength of China's Olympic Games.

On the training ground on temporary loan, several Chinese Olympic players were discussing their upcoming opponents.

Tao Wei said:

"Argentina shouldn't be better than Spain."

Followed by Shu Sing and echoed:

"Of course it can't be better than Spain, Argentina, like us, didn't even go to the World Junior Championships."

"I guess this is the worst Argentina, right?"

Li Yin, who was not far away, immediately rolled his eyes, "What do you think, no matter how bad Argentina is, it is a strong team, I don't know what you think." The 95 and 97 World Youth Championships are both champions! It's not that they're not strong, it's that all the teams in South America are strong, and when I was in Brazil, I didn't see a team from Brazil or Argentina that was weaker......"

Li Yin is very impressed by his time in Brazil, and he has always been learning from high-level players with a humble heart.

"The top players are from South America, especially Brazil and Argentina, how many top players in Europe belong to South America?"

"But there are also low tide periods," Tao Wei smiled, "There are times when football powers are in decline, and in the World Cup last year, didn't Argentina turn over the storm?" Without Maradona, even Batistuta can't pull Argentina. ”

"You really don't want this idea, can't Batistuta's Argentina beat us?"

"This ......"

Tao Wei wilted, and Shu Sing on the side was also silent.

These two guys did float, Zheng Zhi snickered on the side, if it was him, he didn't dare to say that Argentina was weak even if he had ten guts. The Argentine Olympic team that is ready to face is terrifying, although they did not play a result, but no one dares to say that their individual strength is better than them in the whole world.

But Tao Wei is half right, Maradona's existence makes Argentina different, Argentina without Maradona? The next 20 years barely lifted their heads, even when they reached the World Cup final in 2014.

"Zheng Zhi, you know the most about world football, tell me about it?"

Li Yin cast his gaze at Zheng Zhi.

"Does that need to be said? Argentina will never have a shortage of good players, perhaps a lack of cohesion, and a manager who can bring them together. ”

"The results of the youth team and the national Olympic team do not represent the future."

Sometimes it's really bad to know too much about the future, and habitually preconceived. Zheng Zhi cannot consider a team with Saviola, Riquelme, Aimar, Cambiasso, Demichelis, Samuel, Prasente and other future stars of Argentine football in the team to be the weakest in Argentine history......

What's more, the head coach is the famous Pekerman.

The weakest?

The strongest, right......

Even Argentina in the 05 World Youth Championships may not be able to compare......
