Part 5 Chapter 14 Busy Summer (Full)
Fiorentina, who have won the six-time crown, have no desire, and in the last round of the league, they sent a substitute line-up to face Lecce, but Zhang Jun still started. The commentators and fans don't understand why Zhang Jun still starts at this time - shouldn't he be resting?
It wasn't until Zhang Jun scored a goal in the last minute of the first half that people figured it out......
"Thirty-sixth goal! Zhang Jun equaled his goal record last season! From the 06/07 season to the 10/11 season, in just five seasons, Zhang Jun scored 154 league goals! The goal of 200 balls is just around the corner! He is the most efficient shooter in the history of Serie A, and the most terrifying killer! β
After halftime, Zhang Jun was replaced, and his season was over. He needs to retain more energy to prepare for this summer's Asian Cup and Fiorentina's Asian Tour, and it has been a long time since he has tasted complete relaxation after two busy summers in a row, starting with the World Cup.
No matter how much he thought about it, it couldn't be. He's the captain, he's the star of the crowd, he has a responsibility on his shoulders and he has to keep it up.
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, he stood up and celebrated with his teammates the successful end of the season, completely undefeated! Fiorentina's record continues, and those who want to break it will have to wait until next season.
Today is May 3, 2011, Fiorentina have finished the season perfectly, and they have become the most popular, famous and influential team in the whole world. And the captain Zhang Jun has been paid attention to by countless people. It is no exaggeration to say that even if he took Sophie to Israel, there would be a ceasefire in the war.
With less than a month to rest, he could think about nothing for most of June. Just relax. From the end of June, he will be busy, taking on commercials, signing new commercial contracts, and renewing contracts with well-known companies. Hua Fang found him a new contract: the world-famous hotel Rity-Canlton announced that Zhang Jun would be their face for 10 years, offering a contract worth up to 100 million euros for 10 years, which could be considered a lifetime contract considering that Zhang Jun could retire in a few years. Retiro-Carlton, one of the world's most famous luxury hotels, has spent a lot of money to sign Zhang Jun as its spokesperson. It was planned by Hua Fang. As part of the contract, the Retiro also provided Zhang Jun and his family with a luxurious presidential suite, which they could come and stay here at any time for a period of 10 years until the contract expired. You know, the cost of a standard room at the Retiro Hotel is 7,600 RMB for one night. This time they've made a lot of money. Zhang Jun's commercial value is too great, if they don't do it early, I'm afraid someone else will rob it.
In addition, Nike also provided Zhang Jun with a five-year contract with a total value of 25 million euros, and the "Z11" series of sporting goods named after Zhang Jundi's name and number were also successfully produced and sold with Nike's help. The brand will belong to Nike within five years, and after five years it will be privately owned by Zhang Jun. Even if he retires, he doesn't have to worry about his livelihood. Hua Fang's everything was arranged for him.
These are the big contracts signed this summer, and the small ones of one or two million euros a year are not to mention.
In addition to their business activities, Zhang Jun and Sophie also go to Mali in Africa. Instead, he visited children in the affected areas as a UNICEF ambassador and filmed a public service announcement for UNICEF. Then, in China, they also attended the celebration banquet and charity fundraising dinner held for him by the China Youth Foundation.
When the time came to July 8, he said goodbye to Sophie and went to report to the Chinese national team to prepare for the Asian Cup to be held in Japan on July 16. By the time the Asian Cup was over, it was already the end of July, and he didn't want to rush back home to join the Fiorentina team. Participate in the team's Asian tour as well as a range of business events.
By the time he had done all this, it was mid-August and they were going to start preparing for the new season. Until the end of May of the following year, he will not have any more time off.

Swiss shepherd CΓ©sar Retiro opened the first hotel in Paris in 1898 with the belief that the customer is always right. This later became the motto of the Retiro-Carlton Hotel. When the Retiro Hotel was found all over the world, this phrase has been consistently implemented.
The six-star Hotel Retiro-Carlton is located on Place VendΓ΄me, the most exclusive hotel in Paris, and has long been one of the most luxurious hotels in the world. If you have booked a room at the Retiro Hotel. When you arrive, your luggage is ready, including the clothes that should be ironed and hung up, so you don't have to worry about anything. There are four bells next to the bed, passed to the sommelier, the cleaner, the ironer, and your attendant. A lot of things in the room are antiques, even French national monuments. The four steps to living at the Retiro are as follows: breakfast at Espadon, a two-star restaurant in the Michelin Guide; Al fresco lunch at the VendΓ΄me Gardens; Afternoon tea at VendΓ΄me Bar and dinner at the Retiro Club in the evening; In between, you can also browse the hotel's 108 famous stores and ask eight famous stores such as Chanel and Cucci to design clothes.
It's just one store in Paris, and there's so much more to be found in other Retiro hotels around the world.
As the face of Retiro-Carlton, Zhang Jun can enjoy free crew service at Retiro-Carlton hotels around the world. The contract Hua Fang signed for him was a good deal, because Zhang Jun thought about taking Sophie to travel around the world after retiring.
Zhang Jun brought Sophie to Paris to complete the signing ceremony, and Sophie's appearance aroused the interest of the reporters on the scene as always. Everyone knows that Zhang Jun has a beautiful wife, and now that he can see it with his own eyes, those reporters do not spare their films at all. Most of it was given to Sophie. The person in charge of the Reti Hotel was muttering in his heart: I knew how good it would be for Sophie to sign as an image spokesperson......
As part of the business show, Zhang Jun and Sophie will spend 48 hours at the Retiro to fully enjoy the high-quality service provided to them by the Retiro Hotel. Zhang Jun almost enjoyed the service of a king...... Even get up in the morning and brush your teeth. There are attendants with water glasses to accompany them. No matter where he is, whenever he needs help, he will soon be in front of him with a smile on his face...... This kind of service makes Zhang Jun feel as if these people are his servants, but in a modern society that emphasizes the equality of everyone, how can such a situation occur? He once asked a maid, and she replied very appropriately: "Sir, we are gentlemen and ladies who serve gentlemen and ladies." β
Zhang Jun thought about this sentence for a long time, and finally understood. It is still to serve and be served, but because of a very clever persuasion. It made both parties feel very satisfied.
During the two days in Retiro, many reporters paid attention to the life of Zhang Jun and Sophie, and when they ended the two days of experiential life, they expressed their satisfaction and praise for the hotel in the face of reporters. This is naturally what the Retiro side wants to see, so everyone is happy. Jang Jun left with a huge contract of 1,000 euros per year. The Retiro has become the number one luxury hotel of all the time, and its popularity is unrivaled for a while.
Zhang Jun and Sophie then flew directly from Paris to Portland, USA, to visit the headquarters of his contracted company, Nike, and attend a meeting about the design and promotion of his "Z11" brand, of course, as the chairman of "Z11". In addition, laying the foundation stone for the building that bears his name, Nike has a tradition of building a building for each of its famous stars. Named after them. And Zhang Jun is the first Asian to enjoy the honor.
Regarding the establishment of "Z11", Zhang Jun gave Hua Fang carte blanche to help him deal with it, so she also attended this meeting and discussed with those elites of Nike how to make "Z11" a world-famous brand. Zhang Jun listened very carefully next to him, but in fact, he couldn't understand a lot of it......
The groundbreaking ceremony was very lively, the presidents of Nike came out, and large posters of Zhang Jun could be seen everywhere at the scene, and the whole ceremony ended in a friendly and lively atmosphere.
After coming out of Portland, Zhang Jun and his entourage went to New York. The Pepsi people are waiting for them. It is also a small business activity.
From Europe to North America, Zhang Jun and his entourage have been followed by countless reporters, who live under the flash almost 24 hours a day. Of course, this price comes in exchange for endless money and reputation.
And Zhang Jun, who is busy with all this, can't return to China yet, and he has to go to Mali, Africa with Sophie. Go there and bring love to hungry children.
On the way to Europe, Zhang Jun found Hua Fang and told her the idea he had been keeping in his heart for the past few years.
"Sister Hua, you have been my agent for so many years, and I have also handed over my assets to you to manage, can you tell me how much money I have now?" Zhang Jun put his arm around Sophie and had a face-to-face conversation with Hua Fang.
Hua Fang smiled slightly, she is still single at the age of forty, she gives all her energy to her stars, but because of good maintenance, she still looks very young and beautiful. "You don't really have a lot of savings, because I've been investing them all these years. But all your dealings are already No.1 among all football players in the world. At least 500 million euros. I haven't counted the contracts we just signed, your life is pretty simple. Therefore, there is not much consumption of luxury goods, and there is very little spending on other aspects, and the money you have left now is enough for you to live ten lives without worrying about food and clothing. Hua Fang thought that Zhang Jun was worried that he would have no source of livelihood after retiring, and she comforted.
"Hehe, I only have this life to live. It's useless to ask for so much money, I have an idea, and I have discussed it with Sophie for a long time, but we are not familiar with the business, so I hope Sister Hua can help me. Zhang Jun smiled, and then held Sophie's hand tightly.
"No problem, you say."
"Well, I want to take some of the money out of my assets to build a football school in China. To provide opportunities for talented teenagers who cannot continue to play for various reasons, to nurture them, to educate them. Then send them abroad or further their studies at home. Zhang Jun simply said his idea.
Hua Fang first wrote down what Zhang Jun said in the memo, and then looked up and said, "There is no problem, my company can prepare this matter for you now." Are there any further requirements? β
"Hmm...... I think all kinds of facilities should be the best, and we don't save money on this. Teachers should also be the best. If necessary, I think I can use my connections to find it from Europe and South America, and I have to take into account both cultural and professional courses......" Zhang Jun said to Hua Fang little by little what an ideal football school looks like in his heart, "Both hardware and software conditions are the best, but in terms of fees, we set them according to different situations, and they are indeed talented, but the poor ones at home do not charge money, and they also pay subsidies." There are scholarships for good performance...... Well, and help me find some people who are good at management to take care of this school for me. Address. Choose Mianyang, Sichuan, where the natural environment is very good and the climate is also good. Sophie and I went there to investigate, and the land was chosen. β
Hua Fang interrupted Zhang Jun's words: "Listening to what you say, this school is equivalent to public welfare, not only does it not make money. Also post money. According to yours, I don't think it's enough for you to invest alone, you also need to contact other investors. What are you going to use to convince them? β
Zhang Jun smiled: "Other investors, I have a lot of ...... Yang Hua, Ren Yudi and Li Yongle are all very interested in my plan, I want them to contribute some money, I don't need to convince, right? Also, the school must not lose money all the time, and when the players we have cultivated matured, they will naturally recommend them to football clubs at home and abroad. That's when we can recoup our investment. β
"You mean...... Sell players? β
"That's right. There are countries in very South America and Europe that do this, and we have to do better. I think there must be a lot of very talented children in China, but for various reasons they can't continue their football dreams, and now I provide a stable and superior environment for them to learn football with peace of mind and become the pillars of Chinese football in the future. Yang Hua and I have too much chance and drama in their fame, and not everyone has this kind of good luck. β
Hua Fang was silent for a moment, she was considering the feasibility and benefits of the plan proposed by Zhang Jun. Jang Jun stopped talking. He waited for Hua Fang to answer him. Even if Hua Fang doesn't agree, he will find someone to carry out the plan again, this is the biggest dream of his life to go out of the World Cup, and he will never be allowed to die. It's just that it's more reassuring to find Huafang, after all, it's your own person.
Long. Hua Fang raised her head again: "I have a suggestion. β
Zhang Jun nodded and motioned for her to say.
"If the school is successful, it will have a big impact. I hope that you will not only be limited to China, but also open schools to more countries. I want you to do this school as a brand, not just a school. β
Zhang Jun smiled, Hua Fang looked farther than him, but it was exactly what he hoped for. "Of course, make a brand like Nike!"
Hua Fang also smiled: "Okay, you go to Africa, I will take your carte blanche to go to Sichuan to help you with this." I believe that in your name, the government is also very good. β
Hua Fang got up and left, she was already busy drafting the plan for the establishment of this school.
And Zhang Jun let out a long breath and leaned back in his chair. Sophie looked at him: "The last wish is gone, right?" β
Zhang Jun originally wanted to say yes. As a result, when he turned his head to see the beautiful Sophie, his heart moved: "No, there is another wish." β
"What?" Sophie blinked, as far as she knew, this was indeed Zhang Jun's last wish.
The corners of Zhang Jun's mouth hooked: "I hope you will give me a child." That's my greatest wish......"
Sophie's face turned red all at once.
Zhang Jun laughed and hugged the shy Sophie into his arms. This is the only thing he can relax during the fatigue journey, with Sophie, no matter how tired he is, no matter how great his achievements are, he can't match a smile from her. He took Sophie in his arms, gently rubbed her hair, and muttered, "I owe you too much, Sophie......"
β»β»β»
Participating in public welfare activities, shooting advertisements and other things did not press the table, and the time flew to July 8, Zhang Jun and other members of the national team came to Beijing Xiangshan Training Base to gather and participate in the training camp before the Asian Cup. It's also the best opportunity to get to know the new manager.
As soon as the team assembled, Advocaat announced a decision that seemed a little unbelievable:
"Considering that Zhang Jun is more experienced in terms of captaincy, I discussed it with the Chinese coaching staff. After repeated discussions and studies, it was decided to make Zhang Jun the captain of the new national team. β
All the players present were stunned, Yang Hua didn't expect it, and Zhang Jun didn't expect it.
"Coach, this ......" Zhang Jun stood up. He didn't want to be the captain of the national team. In his eyes, no one is more suitable for this position than Yang Pan, and his performance in the past five years has long been recognized by all his teammates.
Advocaat encouraged him through an interpreter: "This is the decision of all our coaching staff, it is everyone's trust in you, you have to do a good job." β
Zhang Jun suddenly felt that he had nothing to say. This thing is too weird, Yang Pan is doing a good job, why do you suddenly change the captain? He turned his head to look at Yang Pan, but found that there was no change in the expression on his face, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
After the meeting. Zhang Jun found Yang Pan, and he didn't want the relationship with Yang Pan to be stiff because of this matter. Who knows what Advocaat had in mind?
Yang Pan smiled at Zhang Jun: "Of course I know that you are not that kind of person, besides, with your current achievements, do you still care about the position of captain of the national team?" I know you, Jun Zhang. Know more than you think. You're the kind of person who wants less trouble, how can you take the initiative to apply for this errand? β
Hearing Yang Pan say this, Zhang Jun was relieved. "But I don't understand why Advocaat wants to change the captain."
Yang Pan snorted coldly: "Let me tell you a story, Zhang Jun." After David Beckham announced his resignation as captain of the England national team, the new head coach immediately fired him from the national team and announced that he would never be recruited again. You know why? The media and the so-called football legend's 'Beckham is not good at skill, too old to defend' is pure excuse. The real reason is that the new bishop is anxious to get rid of Eriksson's influence, so it is best to take Beckham, Eriksson's favorite man. You know, that's one of the things any new manager would do β Liwei. Do you remember how Dunga did when he first came to power? recruited a large group of newcomers, and then announced to the public that he did not value the fame of the past and wanted to enter the Brazilian team and show his performance. It's all the same. β
Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment: "Isn't Advocaat worried about causing chaos in the team?" β
"That's why he asked you to be the captain, not just a new person." Yang Pan pointed at Zhang Jun.
"Why me?"
"Stupid. You are very popular in the team, and your prestige is second only to mine. Look at your current number one popularity in the world. Let you be the captain, and no one else will have any opinions, so that there will be no contradictions within the team, right? It's just that I'm wronged, but I don't care. Yang Pan shrugged.
"Do you really not care?"
"I don't care, it's just a captain's armband. He wanted, though, to take it. Although Yang Pan said so, Zhang Jun still felt that Yang Pan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
This is also the reason why the captain has done a good job, and in an impeccable situation, he will change the captain without any reason, and it is impossible for anyone to accept it at once.
Zhang Jun sighed, he knew that if he simply changed Yang Pan, then the spitting of the media and fans alone could drown this old Dutch man. But then making yourself the captain can well alleviate the current and possible contradictions and condemnation. It seems that this old man really thought deeply, and it was indeed decided after "repeated discussion and research".
Yang Pan is in the year of fighting, and he is very good in terms of technology and tactics, which is the consensus of the world. Advocaat didn't have the courage to prevent Yang Hua from entering the national team, so he could only use his brains on the captain's armband. For some people, the captain's armband is not only a responsibility, but also a supreme honor, and it is indeed a bit cruel to deprive a person of honor in this way.
Zhang Jun's affection for Advocaat is becoming less and less.
β»β»β»
Qiu Suhui slapped the newspaper brought by Luo Shengmao on the table, he pointed to the front page of the newspaper and shouted angrily: "What is the difference between the national team and ten years ago!?" Vile! Shameless! β¦β¦ Grandson! β
The front page is a photo of Advocaat and Zhang Jun and Yang Pan, with a very appalling title: "Yang Pan and Zhang Jun, what do the Dutch want?" β
Luo Shengmao naturally knew about it for a long time. He specially brought news to Qiu Suhui this time. Regarding this kind of grievance between the former national team head coach and the current national team head coach, he is not easy to express his opinions casually, and the Chinese can shake his head.
Qiu Suhui stood up and began to pace in the room, stopping from time to time to point to the newspaper and scolding: "Chen Wei has been looking for a long time." Said to find an obedient person, but ended up finding such one? Obedient on the surface, obedient to the Football Association, and has his own set behind his back! Hmph, Chen Wei wants to listen to politics, Advocaat may not be as he wishes, in the end, it depends on who plays whom! β
"The national team I left for him, as long as it doesn't mess around, there will be no accidents. At least for another four years. Even if we don't win the World Cup in Brazil in three years' time, we can still get a good result. But let that Dutchman and Chen Wei get involved like this, the team is panicked, I see what he should do! The Asian Cup Football Association shouted that it was going to win the championship, and Advocaat said more than once that it was important to train and get familiar with the team, and I wanted to watch it. This Asian Cup is no fun at all! The goal is not clear at all, there are many contradictions within the team, and I seriously doubt the level of the manager! β
Luo Shengmao's afternoon passed in Qiu Suhui's chattering complaints......
β»β»β»
Zhang Jun can feel that there is a problem within the team, although everyone supports him as the captain, but they have no good impression of Advocaat, and Xiang Tao has scolded the Dutch in private more than once as a "turtle son".
These are a headache for Jang Jun because he feels like he can't control the team at all. On the one hand, everyone is accustomed to Yang Pan's straightforward management style, and on the other hand, he himself doesn't want to cooperate with Advocaat very much......
The team's preparation looks orderly on the outside, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging underneath.
That's it. The team hastily played a warm-up match and left for Tokyo, Japan. Zhang Jun also ushered in the first Asian Cup of his career.
On the eve of the team's departure for Tokyo, without Advocaat's knowledge, the team gathered to discuss the dismissal of the Dutch coach by the Football Association at the Asian Cup.
That's a big deal. In the face of those excited teammates, Zhang Jun was always unable to open his mouth to scold. In the end, Yang Pan came out and cleaned up the few leaders fiercely, and then warned them: "Isn't it just a captain?" Are you really thinking I can't live without that thing? I'll tell you, who's going to pick in the Asian Cup. Take the initiative to let go of the water and lose, don't blame me for poking his name out. This is a national honor! Who would dare to joke about it?! β
Just this pro, the soldier admonished the stillborn. Afterwards, Zhang Jun thanked Yang Pan, and he felt that although he was wearing an armband, the actual leader of the national team was still Yang Pan.
Yang Pan sighed: "Zhang Jun." I don't know how you managed that group in Florence. But the national team is different, you have to show a little majesty, first of all, you have to make them afraid of you. β
Zhang Jun smiled bitterly: "I have always given them the impression that they are well-liked and easy to talk to, but now I don't have time to change it." β
Yang Pan had no choice.

The arrival of the Chinese team caused a sensation throughout Japan, after all, this is a world champion team. Although the head coach has changed, the players have not changed much, and the main players who won the World Cup are still there. These people are not famous stars in Europe, and now they are gathered in Japan to set off a new round of football craze in Japan.
As the top seed to win the championship, the Chinese team has attracted much attention. And the fact that they recently changed the captain was also known to the Japanese media, and mentioned in the interview that whenever faced with such a problem, Zhang Jun had to pretend to smile and tell them that everything was normal, and it was just a normal personnel transfer.
The influx of media has made it impossible for the Chinese team to train properly in Japan, and sometimes Zhang Jun will wonder if this is a ploy by the Japanese Football Association, deliberately allowing the media to harass them, interfere with their training, and affect their condition...... If you think about it this way, Japan is really evil......
On July 16, the Asian Cup officially kicked off in Tokyo, Japan, with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Oman in the opening match. Japan, like China, are seen as favourites to win the championship. The two teams are in a competitive relationship.
Two days later, in Group B, the Chinese team got off to a smooth start, winning 4-0 against Syria. Jang Jun scored a hat-trick. With three goals, he temporarily topped the scorers' charts. Li Yongle put the icing on the cake in the last three minutes.
After this match, the Japanese media exclaimed that Zhang Jun was unstoppable, and he didn't know how long his excellent form would last. And when this game was easily won, the wind of the domestic media also changed. Originally, Advocaat was almost unanimously criticized for playing with fire**, but now they all praise Advocaat for knowing how to use people. Zhang Jun is the best choice to be the captain, and the team will surely enter a long period of prosperity under the leadership of these two people.
Four days later, on July 22, the Chinese team ushered in the second match of their Miss competition, and the best Chinese team won 2-0 against Tajikistan. An own goal helped the Chinese team open the scoring, and then Yang Pan ended the game with a powerful long-range shot.
The Chinese team, which has won two games and two wins, has qualified ahead of schedule, and there is no longer any criticism of Advocaat in China.
On July 26, the last game of the group stage, the Chinese team played against Kuwait. The score of the match was 1:0, and the Chinese team won in the 62nd minute thanks to a goal by Shao Jiaying. The Chinese team, which won three games and three wins, showed strong strength. Almost everyone thinks they deserve to be champions, and even the Japanese media are bemoaning that this Asian Cup is not destined to belong to Japan.
The domestic media even blew Advocaat into the sky, but did they notice it? If the journey of the Chinese team is compared to a line, then this line has been at its peak at the beginning and is now going downhill......
On July 30, the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup. The Chinese team swept Qatar 5:0, Wu Shangshan took the lead for the Chinese team in the first 21 minutes, and then played for Zhao Pengyu in Eindhoven to expand the score. At the beginning of the second half, Li Yongle suddenly made a force, scoring two goals in a row in the 53rd and 67th minutes, and Zhang Jun locked up 5:0 with a direct free kick in the 78th minute, and he himself continued to top the scorer list with four goals.
With four consecutive wins, 12 goals scored and not conceded, almost everyone is sure that there is no suspense in this Asian Cup. The Chinese team will lift the Asian Cup for the first time in history. Complete the Grand Slam of their international tournaments.
Even the head coach of their semi-final opponent, Saudi Arabia, complimented the Chinese team for its perfect performance, which made many Chinese people happy to hear it.
Today's Saudi Arabia is no longer the Saudi Arabia that crisscrossed Asia in the 90s, and it is indeed not the same level as the Chinese team in terms of strength. It is not surprising that their head coach showed weakness before the game, and luck is said to have played a big role in reaching the final this time.
The consecutive wins made the Chinese team also have a jubilant atmosphere, and the contradictions before the tournament were temporarily put aside, and the win was enough to cover everything up.
However, in such an atmosphere, Advocaat also remained calm, and he still said the same thing to the outside world: the goal of the Chinese team is to train and observe the players. Not a champion.
Saying that the goal of the Chinese team is not to win the championship is like a lion telling others that it has changed to a vegetarian diet. In the eyes of outsiders, this is a typical desire to cover up, and no one believes the words of the Dutch anymore.
August 2, Asian Cup semi-finals. In the first game, the Chinese team VS Saudi Arabia.
Before the game, Saudi Arabia put its posture very low, and the media did not take the declining Saudi Arabia in their eyes, and the atmosphere before the game was very relaxed. But when the game began, the Chinese team found that everything was not as they imagined, the German-coached Saudi Arabian team completely gave up their delicate and elegant Brazilian flow football in the past, but ran all over the field, actively scrambling, rough movements, the difference in momentum made the Chinese team look very uncomfortable, the opening full 30 minutes, they only had three shots on goal! Although the Saudi team did not have the upper hand and had few shots on goal, they at least blocked the Chinese team's terrifying attack, which was a great encouragement for the Saudi players.
In the first half, the two sides did nothing, and in the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Zhang Jun, as the captain of the national team, the top scorer, and the star of the house, naturally received the most "care". The Saudi Arabian players were unceremonious when defending Zhang Jun, and there was no indication from their movements that this was a football team that had always adhered to the Brazilian technical stream.
The German head coach of the Saudi Arabian team specially arranged two people to defend Zhang Jun, and from the first minute of the opening game, they launched a close defense against Zhang Jun inch by inch. When necessary, he naturally had to take a foul to stop Zhang Jun, Zhang Jun himself didn't know how many falls he had on the ground, in short, the new jersey he had just changed into at halftime was quickly dirty again.
After being pushed to the ground by the opponent for the Nth time, Zhang Jun knelt on the ground helplessly, and then signaled to the referee that he should give a card, right?
The referee only stepped forward to warn the opponent verbally. This caused many Japanese Jang Jun fans in the stands to boo, and in their opinion, the referee's whistle from Thailand was a bit off.
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.
When Qiu Suhui was in power, he said more than once that the Chinese team's goal was in Europe, and the AFC certainly did not want the Chinese team representing East Asia to be too glamorous, so it was normal to find some opportunities to stumble on the Chinese team. It's just that Qiu Suhui's Chinese team is too strong, and he is impeccable in all aspects, even if he stumbles, he will be easily cracked by the other party. And now I heard that Advocaat dismissed Yang Pan as captain, which caused strong dissatisfaction internally, and today's Chinese team is no longer monolithic. Isn't that the best chance yet?
Saudi Arabia's tactics are not how to score, but how to disrupt the Chinese team's attack, so the scene looks chaotic. Saudi Arabia's brutal actions continued to cause boos from the audience, and even the commentator of CCTV5 angrily accused the Saudi players of not playing football, but kicking people, and a good Asian Cup semi-final turned out to be a farce.
β»β»β»
Qiu Suhui in front of the TV slapped the table and scolded Advocaat: "Don't you replace Zhang Jun at this time?!" The opponent is no longer playing, the Chinese team can score more than one Zhang Jun, there are other people, now is the time to protect Zhang Jun! Substitution, you idiot! β
Luo Shengmao, who was sitting next to him, rarely saw Qiu Suhui so excited, and he was a little overwhelmed. Since Advocaat came to power, Qiu Suhui's temper has been getting worse and worse......
β»β»β»
A member of the Chinese coaching staff whispered to Advocaat, a world-famous coach: "Mr. Advocaat, the Saudi team is getting more and more brutal, should we consider replacing Zhang Jun?" If this continues, I'm worried about him getting hurt. With the difference in strength between us and Saudi Arabia, this game will be won sooner or later, but it will not be good to lose Zhang Jun......"
Advocaat looked at the situation on the court and thought about it for a while, then nodded: "Li Jie has finished warming up, right?" Let him come over and get ready to play! β
β»β»β»
The on-site commentator keenly spotted Li Jie standing on the sidelines, who was bowing his head and listening to Advocaat's instructions. He informed him of the situation.
Qiu Suhui, who was in front of the TV, breathed a sigh of relief. "It's okay that the old man is a bit of a good guy and knows how to change people." In his opinion, although there are two strikers on the bench, it is indeed the best choice to replace Li Jie, whose strong body happens to be the nemesis of the Saudis.
It's not like this "famous handsome" doesn't have anything......
