Chapter 163: Visit to Hong Kong (Transitional Chapter)
The day after the formation of the "Wind Team", Feng Quan rushed to Hong Kong with a delegation of gold medalists from the London Olympics and mainland China to begin a three-day visit to Hong Kong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
According to the schedule, after arriving in Hong Kong on August 24, the mainland gold medal athletes will be divided into three groups on the morning of August 25 to meet with Hong Kong citizens. Two groups of athletes will take part in the Olympic Gold Medal Elite Showcase, demonstrating badminton and table tennis at the Elizabeth Stadium and diving at the Kowloon Park Swimming Pool. Another group of athletes will interact with the Hong Kong youth uniformed group at Siu Sai Wan Sports Centre. In the evening, the champions will join the public at the Hong Kong Stadium for the Olympic Gold Medal Extravaganza.
Although Feng Quan and some other Olympic champions were not arranged in the "Olympic gold medal elite showcase" event. However, their "task" is no less easy.
Since the "Olympic Gold Medal Elite Show" held at the Hong Kong Stadium was preceded by a "Cultural and Sports Star Football Competition", Feng Quan and some other Olympic champions who did not participate in the "Olympic Gold Medal Elite Show Style" activity formed the "Mainland Olympic Champion Football Team", which will play a friendly match with the Hong Kong Star Football Team led by Hong Kong superstar Principal Tam at 3 o'clock in the afternoon on August 25.

Just after one o'clock in the afternoon of August 25, the bus carrying Feng Quanquan and more than a dozen other London Olympic champions arrived at the Hong Kong Stadium.
After changing into football uniforms in the locker room, under the leadership of "head coach" Yue Wenjun,
Feng Quan and more than a dozen of his teammates from the "Mainland Olympic Champion Football Team" (hereinafter referred to as the "Olympic Champion Team") stepped onto the lawn of the Hong Kong Stadium.
As soon as the more than a dozen Olympic champions walked out of the players' tunnel, the more than 20,000 spectators sitting in the stands at the Hong Kong Stadium erupted into warm applause and cheers for the Olympic champions.
The enthusiasm of the Hong Kong audience instantly ignited the passion in the hearts of more than a dozen Olympic champions.
After a simple warm-up activity, Feng Quan and several gymnastics Olympic champions who usually like to play football even showed off their "flower work" on the court.
āāāāā
At around 2:40 p.m., the host of the Hong Kong Stadium broadcast the starting list of the Olympic champion team and the Hong Kong star team.
The starting line-up of the Olympic champions is:
Goalkeeper: Lei Sheng.
Guard line from left to right: Zhou Shiming, Lin Haiqing, Lu Xiaojun, Zhang Chenlong.
Midfield position: midfielder Chen Ding, Sun Yang; Forward midfielder Zhou Kai; Left avant-garde Feng Quan; Right forward Chen Yibing.
Forwards: Dong Dong, Feng Zhe.
The reason for such a starting lineup is that Yue Wenjun, who is the "head coach" of the Olympic champion football team, still has a certain "consideration".
The choice of Lei Sheng, a fencer, as the goalkeeper is to take advantage of his height (1.93m) and flexible reflexes.
The four players in the back line, left-back Zhou Shiming is the champion of the boxing event, and right-back Zhang Chenlong is the champion of the gymnastics event. Both of them have excellent speed, reflexes and good stamina, making them ideal for full-backs.
The centre-back pairing, made up of two weightlifting champions, added a great deal of strength to the Olympic champions' backline. In fact, although the body of weightlifting athletes looks burly, their speed and reflexes are not inferior to those in other sports. Therefore, such physical conditions are the best candidates for central defenders.
In the midfield, the back-back combination composed of Chen Ding (20km race walk) and Sun Yang, two Olympic champions with excellent endurance, is enough to build a solid barrier in front of the back line.
Forward Zhou Kai and right midfielder Chen Yibing, the two gymnastics champions, like to kick twice in addition to training, and the passing and control skills at their feet are really good. And Feng Quan, who has already been invited by the Liaoning Hongyuan team, is not to mention.
For a "perverted" existence like Feng Quan, participating in such a friendly match is almost as simple as chopping melons and vegetables.
As for arranging Dong Dong and Feng Zhe, two athletes who are also gymnastics champions, in the forward line, they completely fancy the tacit understanding between the two of them and Zhou Kai and Chen Yibing.
Compared with the starting list of the Olympic champion team, the lineup of the Hong Kong star football team, "Xingwei" is obviously more sufficient.
Goalkeeper: Yin Dahua.
Defender line: left back Luo Jiaying (Tang Seng); scavenger He Jiajing (Zhan Zhao); Right-back Zheng Zhiwei.
Midfielder: Left midfielder Huang Yihua (Guo Jing); Right Forward Andy; Midfielder: Chen Baixiang, Miao Qiaowei, Hong Tianming (Sammo Hung son).
Forwards: Principal Tan and Xie Tianming (Da Tian Er in the Troubled Boys).
āāāāāā
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the match between the Olympic champions and the Hong Kong stars officially began.
After the referee's whistle, the Olympic champion team, which took the lead in getting the kick-off when picking the side, passed the ball to the team's forward Zhou Kai.
As soon as Zhou Kai received Feng Zhe's pass, the two forwards of the Hong Kong Star Team, Principal Tan and Xie Tianming, rushed in front of him.
Although he is facing a team composed of 11 Olympic champions, in Principal Tan's opinion, these Olympic champions who are not football players are even a few points inferior to him in terms of football skills.
It's a pity that in the next moment, Principal Tan paid the price of "embarrassment" for underestimating the strength of the gymnastics champion.
Just when Principal Tan rushed to a distance of less than two meters from Zhou Kai, Zhou Kai swiped his left foot from the top of the football and broke through to the left, so that Principal Tan subconsciously stretched out his right leg to intercept, Zhou Kai gently pushed the ball with the inside of his right foot, and the football passed through the crotch between Principal Tan's legs very obediently.
However, Zhou Kai, who "played" Principal Tan, encountered two midfielders of the Hong Kong Star Team in a blink of an eye, Miao Qiaowei and Hong Tianming's bag defense. Zhou Kai, who was not sure to successfully break through the opponent's defense again, had to reluctantly pass the ball back to Sun Yang behind him.
Sun Yang had just caught the ball steadily, and Principal Tan, who was anxious to find the field because of Zhou Kai's "play", rushed towards Sun Yang with a fierce momentum.
Because Sun Yang's dribbling ability to control the ball is not very good, so under the strong pressure of the opponent, Sun Yang, who was slightly panicked, quickly passed the ball in the direction of the left side of his side.
Under normal circumstances, as a midfielder, it would be normal to split the ball on both wings.
However, because Sun Yang passed the ball in a hurry under the pressure of Principal Tan, not only the intention of passing the ball was very obvious, but also in terms of passing strength and accuracy, it was also very unsatisfactory.
Because of Sun Yang's pass, he didn't fly in the direction where Feng Quan was, but flew towards a long distance in front of him. Therefore, in such a situation, the players of the Hong Kong Star Team subconsciously concluded that even if the ball did not fly directly out of the sideline, it would definitely be easily broken by their right-back Zheng Zhiwei.
Sadly, they seem to have forgotten who the Olympic champions' left midfielder really is...... (To be continued.) )
