In 1999, a fiery winter full of blood and passion, youth and dreams, sweat and tears, many years later, I don't know how many people will remember. The story of these teenagers chasing their dreams with their sweat will be told by many people many years later.

This winter, unusual......

When Zhang Jun and Sophie left home, their parents were packing their things and preparing to go to Xigong Stadium to cheer for their son. Zhang Jun's mother didn't go to the semifinals, so she handed over the store to the guy today and went to watch the game.

The members of the Shuguang football team had to gather at the school half an hour earlier than scheduled, because the principal had to see them off in person, and although he would go to the stadium to watch the game later, now the send-off was like a ceremony, although it was a bit formalistic, but it was indispensable.

Principal said: "For your dreams! For the glory of the school! Use your sweat to fight and let your heart fly! The generous appellation of the people who said it was boiling with enthusiasm, and they rushed to the bus like hungry wolves.

Usually Sophie must be one of the most excited people at this time, but today she sat uncharacteristically silent next to Zhang Jun.

Liang Ke was the last to get on the bus as usual, and then with a wave of his hand, the school bus was "Drive!" "Kill the stadium!" "Rush!" This kind of howl was activated, and it headed for its destination, Xigong Stadium.

Along the way, unlike the excitement of her teammates, Sophie still didn't speak, but as soon as the car drove away, she grabbed Zhang Jun's hand, held it tightly, and didn't let go all the way.

The bus turned from Nanchang Road to Jiudu Road, all the way to the rapid movement, when the car turned into the side gate of Xigong Stadium, you can hear the noise in the car. The final attracted not only fans in Luoyang, but also teams from other regions who came to watch the game and collect information.

As the number one favorite to win the championship, the High School Affiliated to HKUST has naturally attracted much attention, and many opponents in the national competition have come to scout the enemy.

Zhang Jun jumped out of the car, and it was still the scene of reporters besieging the bus. A few minutes early, the High School Affiliated to HKUST was already "encircled and annihilated".

"Zhang Jun! Will you still score a hat-trick in this game? A reporter shouted from several people.

"Impossible." Zhang Jun shook his head.

"Huh? Why? The reporter was obviously unprepared for Zhang Jun's unenthusiastic answer.

"Because the opponent is the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology."

"May I ask Zhang Jun, which do you think is more important, the top scorer or the championship trophy?" Another journalist asked a question that amounted to nonsense.

Zhang Jun glanced at him, thinking that if you have no problem, you can flash away. "What do you think?"

"Zhang Jun! There have always been rumors that Li Yongle decided to play football in the first place in order to play against you. Is this true? ”

Zhang Jun raised his head and just saw that Li Yongle also cast his gaze. It is estimated that a reporter over there also asked, "May I ask Li Yongle, there have always been rumors that you decided to play football in order to play against Zhang Jun." Is this true? "Such a question.

Li Yongle glanced at Zhang Jun, then twisted his head back and nodded to the reporter. So Zhang Jun also retracted his gaze and said, "That's right. ”

The reporter who asked the question was very excited, thinking that he would wait for you for a long time. He hurriedly threw out another question, for fear that this question would be asked by other reporters first, and he would make a wedding dress for someone else. "So in today's final, can you beat him?"

"I won't know until the end of the game." Zhang Jun shook his head very facelessly.

The reporter was also disappointed, and had no choice but to ask a temporary question again: "Then will you use the dragon again today?" He bit "again" hard.

"I'll have to wait until the game to find out."

"It's terrifying!" Anke put her bag on the stool and shouted, "I almost died before I got out of school!" Is this the final? ”

The others did not say anything, and when they arrived at the stadium, they saw such a warm scene, and the previous impassioned enthusiasm was swept away, but they became a little nervous. As Anke said, "Is this the final?" "There were twice as many reporters as in the semi-finals, the stands of more than 20,000 people were almost full, and the deafening shouts still reached their ears clearly through the barriers. Before kick-off. There is even a team of twenty high school beautiful girl cheerleaders dancing.

They seemed to have seen the opening ceremony of the A-League, so they sent Aaron Kwok to come out and sing "Move".

The players changed their clothes and listened to the coach's arrangement.

"Dawn is definitely still 433, as long as they are in order, they will not change formations. Yang Pan, Ren Yudi, and Zhang Jun are still forwards, plus Kaka behind them, this year's Dawn attack power is unprecedentedly strong. Our backline has to be 120,000 points in spirit. Our formation is 451, and the purpose of this game is very clear, on the basis of steady defense and containment of Dawn's attack, we will continue to fight back resolutely. He Jialin, Zhang Yuchao's speed is not weak, we must give full play to the power of rapid counterattacks. Li Yongle, this game is also a time to test how well you practice your long pass. ”

Li Yongle nodded.

"I don't need to say much about the defense, everyone should understand. We played them once, and that time we narrowly won. Yang Pan's speed and long-range shooting are worrying, and his progress has been noticeable over the past year. However, Zhang Yang and Lu Qing, I believe in the ability of the two of you. Especially Lu Qing, you are the only one in our team who did not participate in last year's game, but you are not lost to Yang Pan in terms of speed, and you will assist Zhang Yang a lot in the position of the back waist, and Li Yongle will also give you a reminder. So don't have any worries and worries, rest assured and bold, and play as you like! ”

"Also, Liu Chao, Ren Yudi is indeed a dribbling master, and he can mess up Dingding's backline alone in the game with Dingding, but physical strength is the most important factor restricting him, you can't worry about stalking him, and you don't have to worry about exhausting his physical strength."

"Oh, by the way, Li Yongle. I know what happened between you and Zhang Jun, but this game is a big one, and I want you to focus on the overall situation of the team. Zhang Jun, you just leave it alone and leave it to Luo Bin and Deng Rui. You're in charge of Kaka. ”

Li Yongle was stunned. After a while, he nodded.

"Kaka is a character that should not be underestimated, I hope you will show all your skills, and deal with him like Zhang Jun, don't let him calmly organize the attack."

Li Yongle nodded. Zhang Yang glanced at Li Yongle, but he couldn't see any change in expression on his face.

The horns around the stadium coughed and got to work.

"Good afternoon, all the audience friends in front of the TV and the fans and friends on the scene! Today's finals are against the two sides of the King University of Science and Technology High School and the upstart Shuguang High School. The people who explain this game are still my Wang Qiang and Zhou Jiansheng. ”

"Hello everyone!"

"Judging from the starting lists we just got for both sides, the coaches of both teams have come up with the strongest lineups. The list of appearances of the High School attached to HKUST is as follows. goalkeeper No. 1 Zhang Lintao; Left back No. 6 Zhang Yang, right back No. 15 Liu Chao; The two central defenders are No. 2 Deng Rui and No. 21 Luo Bin; There are also two backs, No. 17 Lu Qing and No. 10 Li Yongle; No. 7 Zhang Yuchao on the left and Zhang Yulin on the right; Captain forward No. 18 Zhao Defeng; Forward No. 11 Ho Ka Lin. The formation of the High School Attached to HKUST is 451. ”

In this, Luo Bin is a senior in high school who repeats a year after his third year of high school, so he can still participate in a competition. Compared with last year, this lineup is only missing the graduated striker Li Qiang, and has been replaced by No. 17 back Lu Qing. ”

"Here's the Dawn's first slate. Dawning played a 433 formation, and the goalkeeper was No. 1 Anke; Left back No. 6 Xie Wei, right back No. 3 Shen Bo; central defender No. 4 Li Jieguang, No. 5 Lin Xiaofang; Back No. 8 Wang Ning, No. 17 Li Hao; Forward Kaka; Forward No. 7 captain Yang Pan, No. 20 Ren Yudi, No. 11 Zhang Jun. This lineup is also the best lineup of the year at Dawn. Can Mr. Zhou make a bold prediction about the situation of this game? ”

"Well, the High School Affiliated to HKUST is a traditional powerhouse and a king. But what earned them this title was their defense. The defense of the University of Science and Technology High School has a tradition, and they have always adhered to the belief that victory is based on a solid defense. And this year's High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology has achieved a high level of defensive foundation. Zhang Lintao is a goalkeeper with unpretentious movements and stable performance. Luo Bin is an excellent central defender with four years of competition experience, and his three-year cooperation with Deng Rui has made this defensive line comparable to a concrete fortification. Zhang Yang is a brave fullback, Liu Chao's one-on-one ability is super strong, and even Fan Cunjie is afraid of him. coupled with Li Yongle, a talented backback who has attracted wide attention across the country. The offensive players often return to the defense, and the defense of the high school attached to the University of Science and Technology is difficult to break through from the perspective of the whole country. ”

"And what about Dawn?"

"Dawn is a team with a lot of character. If the high school attached to HKUST is steady, they are passionate. They are attacking and have excellent individual skills. The backcourt is not as glamorous as the attacking quartet in the frontcourt, but it is also very important. It can be said that they are the foundation of a dawn. When the foundation is stable, the top can be built high. The foundation does not need to be gorgeous, it is their all-out and conscientious dedication when defending, that Zhang Jun and others can rest assured that they can attack boldly in the front court. Because Dawn has never made it to a national competition, I can only say that they are the sharpest spears in the Luoyang area. ”

"Huh! That game is a paradox between the sharpest spear and the strongest shield. ”

"Indeed, quite a figurative statement."

"Teacher Zhou, who do you think will win this game?"

"Well, there are variables in the dawn, and their disadvantages are as obvious as their advantages. Their offense relies on the tacit understanding between the players themselves, and if they go well, they can be infinitely beautiful, and once they don't, they may become squibs. When the attack of the dawn is dumb, their back line will be under great pressure, I said that the defense of the University of Science and Technology High School is good, it does not mean that their offense is not good, in fact, the attack of the University of Science and Technology High School does not rely on the individual ability of the forward, but the result of the team's efforts. Although Shuguang's defense is very hard, there is a gap in strength, and it is still very difficult to prevent the multi-point, multi-level, and multi-means offense of the High School Attached to the University of Science and Technology. On the contrary, they are a very stable team, although there is no shortage of stars, but these stars are for the tactical service, not the tactical service for them, so the abnormal performance of a person has little impact on the team as a whole. Such a team is very scary. Of course, anything can happen in a high-profile final. Both sides can make mistakes, and whoever makes fewer mistakes and who catches the opponent's mistakes better than the other will win the game. This is arguably a matter of experience. Therefore, I believe that the more experienced HKUST High School will win in the end. Although they are not willing to accept such an outcome for Dawn, they are still too young. ”

"Okay, thank you Mr. Zhou for your wonderful analysis. Let's wait for the players from both sides to play. ”

"I think the coach of the high school attached to HKUST must have watched the video of our game badly, and so did I. Everyone is familiar with each other, and this game is a competition of their own strength. Liang Ke said to a group of players, "Compared with last year, the opponent has a new face, No. 17 Lu Qing, who is a very fast midfielder, and it is said that he played as a winger in junior high school." The opposing coach was ready to use him to contain Yang Pan from the beginning, Yang Pan, you have to pay more attention. ”

Yang Pan nodded: "I won't make them comfortable." ”

Liang Ke turned his head to Zhang Jun: "Zhang Jun, now almost everyone knows about you and Li Yongle, and the media also regards the confrontation between the two of you as the biggest focus of this game." But do you think you're really going to be together in this game? ”

Zhang Jun thought for a moment, then shook his head: "No." ”

Liang Ke nodded: "Yes." If I were the coach of the opposing team, I would definitely ask Li Yongle to watch Kaka, because Kaka is the initiator of the attack, and watching him is equivalent to cutting off the connection between the midfielder and the striker. So, Kaka, you have a bad battle to fight today. ”

Kaka smiled and gave a thumbs up: "I have faith in myself!" ”

"The other party is likely to use Luo Bin to defend against you. Luo Bin has four years of experience in major competitions, and has excellent physical fitness, good explosiveness, and fast speed, so he is indeed the best person to defend you. Be careful. Liang Ke told Zhang Jun.

"Anke, the command of the back line is up to you."

"No problem! I'm going to keep them alive for the whole game, hehe! No one knows if he said "no peace" to his own defenders or to the opposing strikers.

"Ren Yudi."

Ren Yu heard his name called and raised his head.

"Last year, you were pressed by him for the whole game and did little, and this year the opposing coach will definitely let him defend you, it can be described as an enemy meeting! How about giving him a little bit of power? ”

Ren Yu knew who Liang Ke meant by "he". The right fullback No. 15 of the High School Attached to the University of Science and Technology is known as the "one-on-one expert", and even Fan Cunjie of Dingding is afraid of him for three points. Last year's competition was only a handful of times he managed to break through him, and this year he can not repeat the same mistakes, and to be honest, he is not confident, but he still nods.

Liang Ke looked at his watch: "It's time, everyone plays!" Remember, our goal is the champion! ”

"Oh—"

"The final of the 15th National High School Football Championship Luoyang Regional Qualifiers and Luoyang Chenguang Cup High School Football League is about to begin, and the 23,000 spectators are waiting with excitement, waiting for the moment when the referee blows the kick-off whistle!"

As if in response to the narrator's words, a deafening shout suddenly rang out from the stands.

"Agui! Gui! ”

Wang Bo searched around before finding the source of the sound.

"Calling you several times, what are you looking around?" Suri said.

"Holy! You sit inconspicuously, you wear inconspicuous, I watched for a long time to find you in the vast sea of people! ”

"Come on, who doesn't know you're small-eyed." Zhang Rui quipped.

"You know what? Small eye spotlight! How do you learn physics when you are still a college student? ”

"I'm not a scholar!" Zhang Rui muttered.

"Hah! People are very neat! Li Xiaopeng, why didn't you bring Weiwei? ”

Wang Bo squeezed to Li Xiaopeng's side.

"Go, go! Weiwei is also your name? Li Xiaopeng smiled and gave Wang Bo a circle.

"Hehe, Liu Hui, Liu Lei, Shang Jin, everyone is here! Not bad, not bad! ”

"As soon as the old captain speaks, I will come for anything!" Shang Jin said with a smile.

"That's it! Look, didn't I come from Zhengzhou? Wang Bo stretched out with a big grin.

Suri looked at the field: "They really came this far, how can we not come and take a look?" It was an appointment. ”

So everyone fell silent and looked at the green pitch quietly, as if they were all reminiscing about their own football years.

"Do you regret it?" Wang Bo asked suddenly.

"Regrets? What do you regret? "Suri didn't understand.

"I regret why I didn't repeat a year anymore, maybe today you are standing on the field instead of sitting here as a spectator."

Su Li smiled: "What about you? Do you regret it? ”

Wang Bo shook his head: "I don't know. Sometimes I regret why last year I was a senior in high school, not a sophomore. But sometimes, I don't regret it, we have to go sooner or later, today's results are their own spelling, what does it have to do with us? What am I red about? ”

Su Li put his arm around Wang Bo's shoulder: "I'm the same as you!" ”

"They're out!" An excited voice came from the loudspeaker.

The players of both sides stepped onto the green field under the leadership of three referees, and the stands suddenly burst into loud cheers.

After the national anthem is played, the captains of both sides pick sides, and then stand on the field according to their respective formations.

Everyone came, parents, friends, fans, journalists...... It's a final, a much-anticipated final, and everybody is coming.

There was a sudden silence in the stands, and only the sound of the wind blowing the flag could be heard. Everyone was waiting, waiting for the moment when the referee blew the kick-off whistle.
