Chapter 297: Dream of the Asian Games

After the World Cup, under the dual role of the team's results and high-level attention, Shen Feng's status in the Dragon Country football circle has risen sharply, and now it seems that he has created an "undefeated golden body", as long as he does not die by himself and self-destruct the Great Wall, then his status in the Dragon Country football circle will only get higher and higher, more and more stable.

This makes the Dragon Football Association no longer just stand on its own side on the issue of how to use him, but become more considerate of Shen Feng.

If the Dragon Football Association deviates from Shen Feng's personal wishes on the issue of using Shen Feng, resulting in irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides, then in terms of public opinion, Shen Feng will definitely get more support, and it is very likely to force the Dragon Football Association to make a compromise.

Instead of this, the Dragon Football Association should do things in front, lest their already small prestige among fans be exhausted in such a "slap in the face" process.

Therefore, now the Dragon Football Association is very cautious in the issue of recruiting Shen Feng, if the Dragon Country team needs to play, Shen Feng will be called up, even if his physical condition is not good, or his competitive state is sluggish - so far, this has not happened - but as long as he appears on the field, even on the bench, it is a deterrent to the opponent!

This is the character that Shen Feng has set up for himself through his performance in various competitions for more than a year before!

As for Shen Feng's age-appropriate U23 national youth team, as well as the U21 national Olympic team that is being built in preparation for the 2020 Olympic Games, the Dragon Football Association will not necessarily recruit Shen Feng if it is not necessary.

For those events that are just a simple exercise value, although Shen Feng's absence will have some impact on the performance of the national youth team and the national Olympic team, relatively speaking, it can also allow his young players of the same age to get more performance opportunities and more exercise, so as to keep up with Shen Feng's progress, in order to give Shen Feng more help in relatively important events, such as the Olympic Games.

In an event at this level of the Asian Games, the Dragon Kingdom is a well-deserved boss, with many strong events, and it has always been far ahead of other countries in the gold medal list, so relatively speaking, this gold medal of the men's football team is not so important.

This is also one of the reasons why the Dragon Football Association did not recruit Shen Feng this time and entered the squad of the Dragon U23 national youth team for this Asian Games.

There is another reason, is that the current batch of players of the U23 national youth team of the Dragon Country, after the experience of the U23 Asian Cup at the beginning of the year, many of them have followed the Dragon Country team to participate in the World Cup that has just ended, and they have grown very fast.

If they can play their level normally, then without Shen Feng, they should be able to create good results in this Asian Games.

Sure enough, in the men's football match of the Asian Games on August 14, in the first round of Group C, the Longguo U23 national youth team defeated the weak team Timor-Leste 6:0 and won the Asian Games.

In the next two group games, the U23 national youth team defeated the Syrian team 3:0 in succession, defeated the UAE team 2:1, won all three games in the group stage, and advanced to the round of 16 with a net score of 10 goals.

After all the matches in the group stage are over, the opponent of the Dragon U23 national youth team in the quarter-finals will be determined to be the third team in Group F, Saudi Arabia.

Although the Saudi team is only third in Group F, the strength of this team should not be underestimated, and the team of Kamara, Karib and Al Kulef are all very capable players, very active on the field, and very attacking.

The Dragon U23 national youth team doesn't know if it's because of the underestimation of the enemy, or for other reasons, but in this one-eighth final, in the first half of the 30 minutes, the opponent scored three goals in a row, and almost fell into a desperate situation!

After the break, although the U23 national youth team of the dragon country has been adjusted, the state has recovered, but the first goal in the second half is still the Saudi team, although in the later game time, the young players of the U23 national youth team of the dragon country are ashamed and brave, and pull back three goals, but the game was finally lost with a score of 3:4, and the journey of this Asian Games came to an abrupt end.

Everyone was amazed at the result!

Judging from the performance of the Dragon U23 national youth team in the group stage, this team is strong, although the strength of the Saudi team is also quite good, but the Dragon U23 national youth team should not lose the game in this way no matter what!

At this time, the fans of the Dragon Kingdom who pay attention to this event will miss Shen Feng infinitely!

Because of Shen Feng's game on the field, even if he was behind at the beginning, Shen Feng could help the team complete the reversal before the end of the game!

Just like the three matches of the Dragon Super League that were held at the same time during the Asian Games, although the Jianye team suffered three consecutive draws for the first time this season in this game, the Jianye team was an opponent who fought hard and finally drew with the spirit of never giving up when the start was behind.

Especially in the game against the Evergrande team, the Jianye team can be said to be in a backward situation throughout the game, the fifth goal of the Evergrande team was scored in the injury time of the whole game, after that goal, there was little time left for the Jianye team to counterattack, but the Jianye team still did not give up, and finally completed the second goal, tenaciously equalizing the score again.

Relatively speaking, this team can be said to have grown up in the greenhouse, but it still lacks the spirit of never giving up and fighting to the end!

However, the game is over, and no matter how much you put it in the afterthought, it will no longer help.

This group of players of the Dragon U23 national youth team, due to the age limit, this Asian Games, is their farewell performance, if they cannot be selected for the Dragon Country team in the future, then the vast majority of these players will be obsessed with everyone and become a brick to support the Dragon Super League and even the Dragon League League.

Shortly after the end of the Asian Games journey of the Dragon U23 national youth team, the Dragon Football Association announced the 25-man squad for the latest training camp of the Dragon team.

Shen Feng was undoubtedly selected for the training squad of this year's Dragon Country team.

In fact, at the same time as the Dragons warmed up in West Asia this time, the Dragons U21 National Olympic Team - that is, the 2020 Olympic Games age players - also made the first full assembly after the formation of the team, and joined the Dutchman Hiddink, the head coach of the National Olympic Team just selected by the Dragon Football Association.
