"In the early hours of this morning, Beijing time, the Chinese national youth team went to the Toulon Cup in France."

"Due to the rush of the trip and the lack of preparation, the team did not arrive in Toulon until 1 a.m. on the day of the match, and after a short rest, the first group game against Colombia was played that evening."

"In the face of all kinds of difficulties, the young players of the national youth showed a very positive performance, overcame various unfavorable factors with their own efforts, and finally defeated the South American powerhouse Colombia 3-0 in the first game, and achieved a good start to the Toulon Cup."

"The core player of the national youth team, the young player Yang Yang who plays for Ajax, performed well."

……

"After the game, Tie Sheng, the head coach of the national youth team, was interviewed by this reporter."

"We have had a very difficult journey this time, and the fact that the players were able to go all out to win the game in such difficult circumstances shows that the players have a very strong sense of responsibility and a strong desire to win on the field, which makes me very satisfied."

"This is an encounter, because we set out in a hurry, the state of the players has not been adjusted, and several main players have not played, so this game is probably only 60% of the level, especially Yang Yang."

"Although this is Yang Yang's first time playing for the national team, he gives me a very good impression, the level is very high, the ball handling and movement on the court are very high, I believe that the experience at Ajax in the Netherlands has improved him a lot, and our next important task is how to further play Yang Yang's role on the field."

……

Yang Yang was also interviewed by this reporter after the game.

'Because it was the first game, I didn't know my team-mates very well, but each of us worked very hard and did everything we could to help the team win, which is why we were able to win against Colombia in the end.

"The coach said I had a big role? No, I think it's a joint effort of all the team. ”

"For my own performance, I think 60 points, barely passing, I can do better."

"Next thoughts? I think it's about playing every game and I want to be worthy of the shirt and I'm going to do my best to defend it. ”

"My own career plan...... I haven't thought about it for the time being, I'm only 17 years old, I'm still far from enough, I hope to continue to polish and improve myself in the Eredivisie, Ajax is a very good training platform, there are European competitions every year, I hope to be able to play as soon as possible. ”

"Renewal? Yes, my agent is in talks with the club about a contract extension, it's not a big problem. ”

With the report of national television, the media across the country also paid attention to the news from the Toulon Cup.

The 3-0 victory over Colombia in the first game of the group stage undoubtedly made the domestic media and fans very excited, especially Yang Yang's debut of the national team, although he failed to become the protagonist on the field, but his performance was still affirmed by industry insiders.

Many football professionals have commented that although Yang Yang has only been on the bench for more than 20 minutes, he has performed very well, handled the ball very steadily, and the team's three goals came from his planning.

"Contributing to the team doesn't have to be a goal or an assist, like Yang Yang's first game is a very good interpretation of the characteristics that a core player should have, he knows that he will be closely guarded by the opponent, Colombia has not dared to let Yang Yang one-on-one, they know that one-on-one can't prevent Yang Yang."

"Therefore, Yang Yang made good use of the opponent's psychology, took the initiative to attract defensive attention, and pulled out space for his teammates, Chen Tao assisted Zhu Ting's ball from his ball, Liu Yu assisted Mao Jianqing's ball from Yang Yang's ball, and Hao Junmin's shot, Yang Yang's pass was very clever."

"It should be said that although it was just over 20 minutes, Yang Yang embodied the quality of a European professional player, and we all believe that it was no fluke that he could perform well in the Champions League, become Ajax's gold medal substitute, and score the winner in the Champions League final."

On the evening of the day after the match, national television once again reported on the Toulon Cup of the national youth team, which focused on the special discussion session of the national youth team on the morning of the second day of the game.

"We Chinese have a saying that is very true, there is no order to learn, and those who reach it are teachers."

"Although Yang Yang is only 17 years old, he gives me the impression that he is a very good thinker, and his academic performance is very good, and he may be escorted to the University of Amsterdam, and his personal experience of Dutch football has undoubtedly given us very valuable experience." Coach Tie Sheng said in an interview.

"Our coaching staff wants to organise seminars like this to make our players see more clearly the gap between themselves and the top level of football in Europe, and only by seeing the gap can we improve."

Yang Yang does not see himself as imparting experience, but as a communication channel to promote mutual understanding.

In an interview with reporters, he also said that Chinese football is indeed lagging behind European football a lot, but it has been studying hard.

"I think we should get more players to play in Europe, not blindly chasing fame, the main thing is to be able to play."

In addition to the coaching staff, the international players of the national youth team were also full of praise for Yang Yang in interviews with the media, although he only played half of the game, Chen Tao, who was elected as the best player of the whole game in the first round, was even more embarrassed to say that he was ashamed.

"I think the best performance in the first game was Yang Yang, from him, I really saw the gap between myself and European players, I hope to have the opportunity to play in Europe and continue to improve my strength."

For the first game of the national youth team, Yang Yang's debut of the national team, the outside world has given quite high praise, and it is also agreed that Yang Yang has brought very positive and obvious changes to the national youth team.

However, many media analysts believe that the first win is gratifying, but the second game against the French team is the most crucial.

The national youth team is 19 years old, but the French team is 21 years old, and many players in the team are playing in Ligue 1 and the four major leagues, and the overall strength is very good, which will be a huge test for the national youth team.

Head coach Tie Sheng said in an interview with the media that Yang Yang will start the game, and the team will go all out to try to defeat the host France in the second game and win two consecutive games in advance.

Domestic fans are also full of emotions and are full of expectations for the performance of the national youth team.

The major websites have heard the news, although there is no live broadcast on the spot, but the game is broadcast live through text broadcasting.

…………

On the evening of June 3, Toulon, France.

Compared to the first match against Colombia, the national youth team made three changes in position.

First of all, on the front line, Yang Yang's starting partner Zhu Ting, in the midfield, Chen Tao started mainly on the right side, Hao Junmin still occupies the left side, the midfield is equipped with two backs, and the central defender Feng Xiaoting starts on the back line, and the other positions remain unchanged.

Although he has had two days of running-in with the team, Yang Yang's cooperation with his teammates is still rusty, and the French team is also strict against him, and the central defender Ziani is following him inch by inch, coupled with the assistance of the midfield lag player Flamini, it is difficult for Yang Yang to find opportunities on the field.

Flamini is also a very smart player, who has performed well in Marseille this past season, impressed as a substitute and played in the UEFA Cup final, and has been spotted by Arsenal's Arsene Wenger and will move to Arsenal in the Premier League this summer.

Guarded by the opponent's strict defense, Yang Yang continued to play the same style as in the previous game, getting rid of the defense by running widely, acting as a transitional role for the team, organizing and planning the attack.

However, what is obviously different from the face of Colombia is that the French team is a European team in the end, and the overall technical and tactical aspects are more rigorous, unlike Colombia, which leaves a gap for the national youth team, and the overall strength of the host players is also stronger.

Almost at the beginning of the first half, the French team pressed the Chinese team to play in the 30-meter zone, and the situation was one-sided.

This not only made the international students who came to watch the game shocked, but also made the fans who watched the live text broadcast in China worried.

The first threatening attack of the Chinese team occurred in the ninth minute, Yang Yang received a pass from Chen Tao on the right side, quickly launched a counterattack, drove straight into the front of the opponent's penalty area, and then distributed the ball to Zhu Ting, but Zhu Ting, who was quickly inserted, stopped and missed a good opportunity to score.

Then the French team continued to increase its attacking efforts, especially the two twin stars who played for Liverpool, Pongele and Le Tale, who were extremely active in the frontcourt, with very strong personal ability, and the two were very tacit, which made the Chinese team's defense suffer thoroughly.

Luckily, the team's midfield was very tenacious.

In the 25th minute, Yang Yang planned another attack, leaning on Flamini with his body, and when receiving a pass from a teammate, he stopped to his left side, turned and kicked a through ball, and sent the ball behind French left wing-back Bertod.

Chen Tao quickly inserted, received the ball and crossed to the front of the penalty area, but was cleared by the opponent's central defender Columbus with an early header.

Seven minutes later, it was Yang Yang who received a long pass from the backcourt, took two steps, and suddenly shot from a distance.

The quality of this powerful shot was good, Yang Yang was very sure, but the distance was a little far, and the opponent's goalkeeper had already prepared and stood in time to hold the ball.

The first half ended 0-0, and neither side could find the back of the net, but the Chinese team was at an absolute disadvantage on the field.

Under the test of the strong team, Yang Yang also became the only shining point on the field.

There were no substitutions in the midfield of either side, and the starting line-up was continued, but the stalemate on the pitch remained the same.

The French team pressed the Chinese team to play and repeatedly created dangerous situations, but the Chinese team was very tenacious, and the goalkeeper Guan Zhen performed very well and did not let the opponent score.

After entering the 60th minute, on the one hand, they were eager to win, and on the other hand, they also felt that Ziani's physical consumption was too great and could not keep up with Yang Yang's pace, so the French team finally chose to make a substitution, replaced No. 7 Moscan, replaced Ziani, and strengthened the attack in the frontcourt.

At this time, France changed to a back three.

And Yang Yang also realized that the opportunity he was waiting for had finally come.
