138 popular junior tournaments
Just as no one thought that the level of youth football in Chubei could reach a very high level, no one thought that the Chubei Youth Championship would be so popular.
The Chubei Youth Championship was held in Jiangxia at the Jinyuhu Training Center and three training camps in Jiangxia City.
Because there are many participating teams, the U18, U16 and U12 are held on the improvised courts in these four places, and the U10 is simply held on the training ground without stands.
At first, the main audience was mainly from the players' relatives and friends and players who were not selected for the team, but after the broadcast on the sports channel, some fans began to find the youth game equally attractive.
Junior games may not be as fast and well-organized as senior professional teams, but junior games tend to be more imaginative than senior professional teams, and some fancy moves and unexpected combinations look great to watch.
Under the guidance of Jiangxia Flame Club, the first is to pay attention to the basic skills, and the second is to give full play to the autonomy and imagination of the players. In stark contrast to the roughness and roughness of Huachao, many fans were no longer satisfied with watching the broadcast on TV two days after the start of the game, and went to the scene to watch the game.
Another large group is the students, because of the concept of the Jiangxia Flame Club, their team members have never left the school, which attracts a large number of students to come over to cheer on their classmates.
There are also fans and students from various cities who rushed to Jiangxia to cheer for the local team after seeing the performance of the local team on TV.
Therefore, in addition to the Jinyuhu Training Center Stadium, the other training camp stadium can only accommodate two or three thousand fans, and the stands are overcrowded, and the atmosphere in the stadium is becoming more and more intense.
This atmosphere also directly affects the performance of the team, some unaccustomed teams and players have abnormal performance, and of course, there are also crazy players who play abnormally.
Under the guidance and drive of Jiangxia Flame, even the local municipal teams pay more and more attention to basic skills, and the club's own training camp is even more so, which creates a very smooth game, which looks very enjoyable.
This situation made Lin Wenlei very happy, and the U16 youth sports team was scattered to each training camp team without commanding the task, so he rushed around the various stadiums to watch the game happily according to the report of the scouting system, and inspected the players by the way.
Compared with the first junior championship, the level of each team has been greatly improved, and each has its own characteristics, and the greater the training value for the players and teams.
And with the enthusiasm of the audience, as the group stage progresses, the pressure to qualify is increasing, and the level of many players has almost improved.
On July 20th, Lin Wenlei originally went to Wusheng Training Camp to watch a U12 game, which was the U12 team of Wusheng Training Camp against Fushi Training Camp. It is said to be U12, but it is in the 12 and 13 age group, and it is all based on the youth U13 players.
However, he arrived a little earlier, and the previous game was the U18 game, which was no problem for Lin Wenlei, who likes to watch the game, and he happily sat down and waited for the game to start.
There are no teams participating in the U18 group, all of them are teams from various cities, only 8 teams participate, and the game he watched was Xian'an U18 vs. Jiangxia U18.
At the beginning of the game, Jiangxia U18, the provincial city team, was actually suppressed by the U18 from Xian'an, and Xian'an U18 played very smoothly, which surprised Lin Wenlei, who was a little surprised by the 'city'.
Fast speed and anti-reversal are almost a traditional feature of Chubei football, Jiangxia U18 is this style, and the traditional one high and one fast also appeared in a youth team, which is quite surprising.
The Xian'an U18 style of play looks much more advanced, and it is actually a forwardless formation with technical flow, and it pays attention to suppressing and controlling the game.
However, although Xian'an U18 has the upper hand, Jiangxia U18's defense is also very layered, withstanding wave after wave of attacks by Xian'an U18.
"Why are you here?"
was watching with relish, and a familiar voice suddenly came from the side, Lin Wenlei looked back and saw that it was his ex-girlfriend Jamila, and next to him was her best friend Sumi. Only then did I react, I should have come to watch the next U12 game, Sumi's younger brother Sutan represented Wusheng training camp.
He and Jamila haven't seen each other since they broke up, but they still have the same fiery personality when they see her again. Lin Wenlei replied with a smile:
"The same purpose as you. How's it going, how are you doing?"
Jamila glared at him, inexplicably, but still answered him:
"That's it..."
At this time, Jiangxia U18 finally survived almost 10 minutes of indiscriminate bombardment, found an opportunity to counterattack, and launched a counterattack with the ball by the fullback.
Jiangxia U18's style of play is completely the way of playing more than ten years ago, 532, anti-counterattack, one high and one fast, the fullback can dribble the ball fast, and several people in a row are all eating each other raw with speed.
And in the end, it is also the old routine of the bottom cross, but the advantage is that the counterattack is fast, and the kick is very skillful and clear.
The centre-forward ferried, then the winger shot at goal, and the goal was cleared and the crowd sighed.
Lin Wenlei pondered intently how the counterattack was initiated, how to hand it over from the corner kick defense of Jiangxia U18 to the feet of the fullback, he didn't pay attention to what he said just now, and in an instant, the ball reached the feet of the fullback who started...
A bottle of water was shoved into his hand, startling him, and then Jamila turned around and said fiercely:
"You're still the same as before, you love football, right?"
Lin Wenlei didn't want to argue with her, they had no problem with anything else at that time, the main dispute was over here, and now that they broke up, there was no need to argue about this, just laughing...
Hearing the applause of the audience, Lin Wenlei turned around and saw that Jiangxia U18 had launched a counterattack again, this time it was seen that their counterattack was mainly a fullback and a midfielder, as well as two forwards.
But they were very skillful in their combination, with the right wing-back characterised by a continuous wall link with the midfield, passing through the midfield just as quickly and then handing it over to the wingers.
Jiangxia U18's No. 11 winger dribbled the ball quickly and broke through well, passing a midfielder and then handing the ball to the No. 9 center after attracting the defence.
What stunned Lin Wenlei the most was that their No. 9 center forward looked tall and big, and after taking the ball, he actually skillfully came to a pendulum pass, and after completing the breakthrough, he shot 16 or 7 meters hard, directly penetrating the goal of Xian'an U18.
The perfect combination of this skill and strength made Lin Wenlei unbelievable, and hurriedly checked the information.
The data shows that Fang Hongbing, a scout under Wagner, also gave No. 9 Yue Heng a high score of 9 points, but the comment was that he was born with a header and was a standard center.
Jiangxia U18, No. 9 Yue Heng, 18 years old, a sophomore in high school. After reading the information, Lin Wenlei did not hesitate to directly mark a high score of 9.5 and suggested that Wagner pay attention.
