Chapter 880: Opening the World Preliminaries

After finishing the filming in China, Jiang Chen did not immediately fly abroad with the crew, because at this time, Jiang Chen went directly to the Chinese men's football team to report.

At this time, the Asian qualifiers for the 2022 Qatar World Cup have begun.

With hosts Qatar taking a spot in the main event, there have been some changes to the format of the Asian qualifiers, with all teams having to play a qualifying round.

The Chinese men's national football team, the opponent in this round of qualifying is the Timor-Leste team.

The qualifying round for the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup is a two-legged knockout system of home and away, and if the Chinese team defeats the Timor-Leste team, they will enter the group stage of the World Cup Asian qualifiers.

At this time, Jiang Chen went to report to the Chinese men's national football team for the World Cup Asian qualifiers.

The strength of the Timor-Leste team is very weak, and it should be easy for the Chinese team to cross their hurdle, and the Chinese sports media do not take this opponent seriously, because the strength of the Timor-Leste team is indeed too weak.

When he came to the national team, Jiang Chen naturally met Deng Hanwen, Deng Hanwen transferred from China to Parma in Italy when he transferred last summer, and in the team where Jiang Chen once stayed, Deng Hanwen was still doing well, and his performance in the team was not bad.

However, Deng Hanwen is still young and inexperienced, and he has not adapted to the rhythm of Serie A, but he still shows a certain strength and potential, so he is still very promising in the Parma team.

However, this season Parma have been relegated, and next season Deng Hanwen will go to Serie B with Parma.

Regarding this matter, Jiang Chen believes that this is not necessarily a bad thing for Deng Hanwen.

Now Deng Hanwen is obviously not up to the level of the Serie A game, and he can't keep up with the rhythm of the Serie A league.

Deng Hanwen went to practice in the Serie B league for a season, or a few seasons later, Jiang Chen firmly believes that at that time, Deng Hanwen's strength will definitely increase greatly, and at the same time, he will be more familiar with Italian football.

The team's relegation Deng Hanwen is indeed a little depressed, he originally wanted to play in Serie A, but now it's okay, he is going to play in Serie B, and he is not in a very good mood.

Jiang Chen naturally wants to enlighten his little brother, Jiang Chen told Deng Hanwen his thoughts, Deng Hanwen felt that his buddy was right, and he didn't dwell on this matter, he made up his mind to hone himself well in the Serie B League.

The first match of the Chinese team against the Timor-Leste team was played at the Capital Workers Stadium, the home of the Chinese team, and Jiang Chen naturally appeared in the starting list in this game.

However, in addition to Jiang Chen, there are a lot of new faces in the Chinese team, Lippi is looking at the new players, the strength of the opponent is not very strong, and it is reasonable for Lippi to do this.

At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team took the initiative on the field, and the Timor-Leste team was passively beaten afterwards.

Before the end of the first half of the game, Jiang Chen directly staged a senior break early.

However, in the second half of the game, the Chinese team's performance was still very good, and finally the Chinese team defeated Timor-Leste 8-0 at their home stadium, directly killing the suspense of the second leg of the game, China has been confirmed to advance to the next round, will participate in the group stage of the World Cup Asian qualifiers.

The second leg of the match between the two sides was played at the home of the East Timor team, the Chinese team went to the away side, Jiang Chen also started this game, he still only played half a game, in this half of the game, Jiang Chen performed even better, he completed two passes and two shots, the first half of the game, the Chinese team once again led the opponent 4-0.

In the second half of the game, Jiang Chen was off the field early, but the players of the Chinese team did not give up the attack, they continued to attack frantically, in the second half of the game, the players of the Chinese men's national team scored five goals in a row, and finally the Chinese team won 9-0 away from home.

In this way, in the two-legged match, the Chinese team defeated the Timor-Leste team with a total score of 17-0 and directly advanced to the group stage of the Asian qualifiers for the Qatar World Cup.

ended the game, Jiang Chen left the Chinese men's national football team directly, and he flew directly to the United States to join the crew of "Honor of Kings 3".

Jiang Chen's return reassured Zheng Da, and then Jiang Chen started a busy life of film shooting.

To be honest, movie shooting is still quite interesting, Jiang Chen likes to shoot movies very much, although he is very busy, Jiang Chen is having a lot of fun.

However, this made Chu Hongxia tired, and it was really tiring to take care of Jiang Chen's daily life.

And during this period of time, the great director Zheng Da even arranged a cameo role for Chu Hongxia, so that Chu Hongxia also had a good addiction to drama.

Of course, the role played by Chu Hongxia is not an important role, and she doesn't need too good acting skills, Chu Hongxia agreed, if it really is an important role, she Chu Hongxia will not play it, and she can't play it.

During this time, the investment in Serie A is very huge, and the investment of the Inter Milan team is to make everyone staggered.

Inter Milan directly brought in Argentine striker Correa from Atletico Madrid for 45 million euros, which is a big deal.

And after the introduction of Correa, the Inter Milan team did not stop their pace of recruitment, and they directly brought in the new generation of Polish star Zielinski from Napoli at a price of 57.5 million euros.

Yes, Zelinsky still left the Napoli team to join the Inter Milan team with an unstoppable momentum, and it is said that the weekly salary offered by the Inter Milan team to Zielinski is 220,000 euros, which is twice as high as his weekly salary in the Napoli team, and it is no wonder that Zelinsky is leaving the Napoli team.

In terms of player salaries, the Napoli team does seem to be a bit picky, and it is the lowest club in Serie A.

Shortly after Zielinski left the Napoli team, Napoli's full-back Hisaj also followed in Zielinski's footsteps and left the Napoli team, and he joined the team that was still Inter Milan for a transfer fee of 35 million euros.

Jiang Chen was stunned when he learned the news, he really didn't expect Zelinsky and Hisayi to leave the Napoli team like this, is the Napoli team going to collapse?
