"In the early morning of this morning, Beijing time, in the second round of the Toulon Cup Group A group stage held in Toulon, France, the Chinese national youth team narrowly defeated the host French team 1-0 with the last goal of the core player Yang Yang."

"This match attracted a large number of French fans and Chinese students to watch the game."

"Because the average age is two years older than the national youth team, the Chinese team is very passive on the field, but the national youth players continued their excellent performance in the first round of the game, played very tenacious, and firmly held the goal."

"At the critical moment of the second half, Yang Yang stepped forward, retreated to the backfield to receive the ball, ran 67 meters with the ball for a long distance, passed three players of the opponent in a row, shook the goalkeeper and pushed the empty goal, and won the second victory for the national youth team."

"After the game, Yang Yang was officially selected as the best player of the game."

"The following is an instant report sent back from the front by Wei Zhen, a reporter accompanying the team."

……

"Okay, thank you, host, I'm Wei Zhen."

"I'm in Toulon, France, and I'm holding a couple of influential newspapers in France, all of which focused on the match where the youth team beat France last night."

"First of all, you can take a look at [French football], they used the title of the defeat of the French army, they believe that the French team led by coach Raymond did not fully play as well as they should in the game, they controlled the situation and the advantage on the field, produced as many as 14 shots on goal, but in the end they lost the game."

"They believe that in the face of the Chinese team, which is two years younger than them, the French team did not give effective means on the offensive end, but it was the substitution of coach Raymond who liberated Yang Yang of the Chinese team."

"The report specifically mentioned Yang Yang's performance in the Champions League final, and believed that Yang Yang could be an important player for Ajax and score a killer goal in the Champions League final, and his strength should not be underestimated, even in the face of French players who are three or four years older than him, and more importantly, the final killing of three people and the pendulum left an extremely deep impression."

"In addition, there is this, the French team newspaper, they think that the Chinese team's defense is not leaky, the French team's attack is weak, and the team newspaper also reported on Yang Yang, in addition to commenting on Yang Yang's outstanding performance in this game, two players were also mentioned, one is Ronaldo, the original pendulum man, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Manchester United, that is, the little Luo in the mouth of many fans."

"In last year's Toulon Cup, Xiao Xiao Luo was also three or four years younger than other players, but he performed quite well, helping the Portuguese team all the way from the group stage to the final, and finally defeated Italy to win the championship, and the French team newspaper believes that Yang Yang's game against France is reminiscent of last year's Xiao Xiao Luo."

"Let's take a look at the French newspaper Figaro, who described the French team as losing an asymmetrical battle and commented that Yang Yang single-handedly defeated a team."

"There is also Le Monde, they think that the Chinese national youth team has shown amazing tenacity and desire to win, on the other hand, the French team, in front of opponents two years younger than themselves, obviously did not have the determination to win the game, and they think that Yang Yang of the Chinese team has left an extremely deep impression on people, and the strength is not inferior to the French stars Pongler and Le Tale."

"It can be said that early this morning, the whole of France is paying attention to this game, and the major newspapers have a very high evaluation of the Chinese team, especially Yang Yang, and the French team is one-sided criticism and accusation."

"After last night's game, I met the future head coach of the national Olympic team, German coach Krauchen, who took the initiative to talk to me about this game, thinking that the Chinese team's defensive system is very good, the French team is two years older, the overall strength advantage is obvious, and a draw should be a more reasonable result."

"But at the critical moment, Yang Yang's individual performance determines the outcome of the game, and he believes that Yang Yang has created many chances in the game, but the player's ability to grasp the opportunity is lacking, otherwise, the Chinese team would have scored the lead in the first half."

For Yang Yang, Crowchen believes that he will become a core player in the National Olympic Games and even the national team.

"As for the problems exposed by the Chinese team in the game, Krauchen focused on two points, one is that there are too many passing and receiving errors, which makes it easy for us to lose control of the field, so that the French team has a clear advantage throughout the game."

"Another point is the offense, which is not obvious enough when playing Colombia, because the overall skills and tactics of the South American team have always been relatively lazy, but it was obvious when playing against France, only Yang Yang alone can play normally in France's defensive formation, if there is no Yang Yang, this game will be a draw, or even a loss."

"For the Chinese's next trip to the Toulon Cup, Krauchen believes that it is still necessary to play steadily and focus on the next game, but he is personally looking forward to Yang Yang's next performance."

"According to the information I got from the coaching staff of the national youth team, Yang Yang is now in good condition and excited, and he took the initiative to ask to continue to play the third game, and he hopes that the team can maintain the current momentum and state."

…………

…………

The Toulon Cup schedule is very tight, when the Chinese team is still talking about the Chinese team's 1-0 defeat of the French team, Yang Yang's three-person and pendulum killer goal, the Chinese team in Toulon has ushered in the third round of the group stage.

Sure enough, as Wei Zhen expected, the coaching staff made rotation adjustments according to the state of the players, but Yang Yang started again.

Although Turkey was the third runner-up in the last World Cup, the players participating in the Toulon Cup are not very old, and the overall strength is inferior to France, or even slightly inferior to the Colombian team, which makes the Chinese team ready to try.

Due to the defeat of the Chinese team at the foot of Turkey in the World Cup in 02, many domestic fans are looking forward to the national youth team to clear the national team's previous shame.

At the beginning of the game, Yang Yang was very active, and launched another counterattack in two minutes, sending a wonderful pass to Hao Junmin on the left side, assisting Hao Junmin to break through the Turkish goal and open the scoring for the Chinese team.

Just two minutes later, Yang Yang got another chance, stopped the ball in the middle and got rid of the defender and rushed forward with the ball, straight behind the defensive line, Mao Jianqing, who started the game, quickly caught up and hit the goal with his right foot, expanding the score to 2-0.

After that, the Chinese team continued to attack, this time to the right side to receive the ball, and then passed back to Chen Tao, who cut into the middle, who passed Mao Jianqing, but unfortunately the national youth team striker failed to stop the ball and went directly out of the bottom line.

But only a minute later, Mao Jianqing made up for it, retreated to the midfield after breaking the ball, quickly launched a counterattack, and when forced by the opposing defenders, he lost the ball again, but Yang Yang launched a counter-robbery on the right side, and after winning the ball, he went all the way into the penalty area, and calmly scored in the face of the goalkeeper, scoring his second goal in this Toulon Cup.

Three to zero!

No one expected that the Chinese team would score three goals in a row in less than ten minutes, completely stunned the young players in Turkey.

After the opening round of attack, Turkey also reacted quickly and began to attack, and soon in the eleventh minute, took advantage of the mistakes of the Chinese team's defense twice in a row, and made two threatening shots in one minute.

Then the game entered a stalemate, and the Chinese team gradually slowed down its offensive and focused on stabilizing the defense.

In the second half, the coach of the national youth team, Tie Sheng, replaced Yang Yang, the number one contributor with two passes and one shot, at halftime, and replaced it with striker Wan Cheng, hoping to give Yang Yang more rest time to prepare for the next semi-finals.

Although no one said, no one can deny that in just three games, Yang Yang has proved the fact that he is the core star of the national youth team with his strength and performance, and all the players in the team also agree with this point of view.

After the rematch in the second half, Turkey launched a counteroffensive.

In particular, in the 54th minute, Turkey replaced teenager Alda Turan, a player who played for Galatasaray and was the same age as Yang Yang, both 17 years old, but he performed quite well on the field.

After coming on as a substitute, Turan planned a wave of offensive for the Turkish team, and finally in the 73rd minute, the Chinese team paid the price for the frequent defensive mistakes in the middle.

After that, Turkey continued to increase its offensive efforts, but the Chinese team also realized the problem and defended it all the way.

In the end, the score remained 3-1 until the end of the game.

With the opening round of attack, the Chinese team defeated Turkey 3-1, won three consecutive victories in the Toulon Cup group, and proudly qualified with a winning record.

Yang Yang was also re-elected as the best player of the game with two passes and one shot.

In the other game, France won 2-0 at home to Colombia and finished second in the group.

Group B also ended all the group stage on the next day, Japan won two and lost one, and exited the bottom of the group, Brazil qualified first in the group with a record of two wins and one loss, and Sweden beat Portugal with one win, one draw and one loss, ranking second in the group.

As a result, the semi-finals of the Toulon Cup have also been released, with China facing Sweden and France facing Brazil, and the winners of the two semi-finals will advance to the Toulon Cup final.

Although it is thousands of miles away and there is no live TV, the outstanding performance of the national youth team in the Toulon Cup still aroused heated discussions among domestic fans and media, especially Yang Yang's performance, which was appreciated by everyone in China.

In the three games, except for the first one, which was not obvious enough, Yang Yang played a vital role in the remaining two key games, and all the fans were obvious to all, which made domestic fans full of expectations for the seventeen-year-old player.

Even some domestic football veterans publicly stated that Yang Yang will be the hope of the future of Chinese football and the future leader of the national team.

But there are also many sensible industry insiders who have called on the media and fans to stay calm and not kill the young players of the national youth team, especially Yang Yang, after all, he is only 17 years old.

But no matter what, Yang Yang's popularity in China soared like a rocket, and it became completely popular.
