Chapter 194: Xiaobai's debut

A few hours after the Shenzhen Jianlibao team reached the semifinals of the AFC Champions League, the national junior team also ushered in the last opponent of the group stage of the World Junior Championship on the opposite side of the world, the Ghana team, but to the surprise of many people, the Chinese junior team encountered unprecedented difficulties in this game. Due to the sharpness of the Chinese junior team's quick counterattack in the previous two games, the Ghana team wisely chose to shrink the defensive line in this game and played the same style of play as the national junior team

And even more troublesome, the luck in this game is not on the side of the national junior team, they were the first to score in the first two games, but they were first scored by the Ghana team. It's going to be troublesome now, if you don't attack it, you can only wait for death, and if you attack it, you are afraid of the fast counterattack of the Ghana team.

Although the courage is insufficient, because the national junior team has ensured the group qualification, Zhang Ning still chose to press the attack, and sent Yang Xu, who was not fast enough, but had height and good shooting skills. However, because of the lack of organization in the midfield, the effect of the strong attack was not good, and Wang Dalei, who was brave in the previous two games, was not excited because he could not get enough stimulation, and as a result, he made a low-level mistake, and was scored by the Ghana team with one goal, and the national junior team fell behind by two goals

Zhang Ning, who was on the sidelines, first thought of defense in this unfavorable situation, and after hesitating again and again, he finally sent Bai Jiajun, who was only 1.68 meters tall, on the field. Although he was a little worried about Bai Jiajun's air defense, his speed and explosive power were even more amazing, and it was best to prevent the opponent's quick counterattack.

Although Bai Jiajun is only 14 years old now, he is an early childbearing like Xie Wenjun, and he has also been helped by scientific football training and nutrition methods, and now he weighs more than 50 kilograms, and his muscle type is still dominated by white muscles, so his physical confrontation ability is actually stronger than those young players who are two or three years older than him, but because of his short and thin body, the Ghana team couldn't think of this at first.

Seeing that the Chinese team actually sent such a short doll to play the center back, the head coach of the Ghana team immediately regarded Bai Jiajun as a big hole in the Chinese team's defensive line, and immediately turned defense into offense, hoping to seize this weakness and further expand the score, while Zhang Ning looked at the main center forward who was more than 1.8 meters tall on the opponent's field, and couldn't help but sweat for Bai Jiajun

But what stunned the coaches of both sides was that Bai Jiajun fully showed his outstanding prediction and sense of position, using the means of preemptive defense to prevent the tall Ghanaian center from having no temper at all, and the opponent failed to fight for the ball once in a continuous game of more than ten minutes, and everyone quickly appeared, even if it was only compared to the absolute height of the bounce, Bai Jiajun was not inferior to the big man

"That's a height difference of more than a dozen centimeters, that's a black player who is generally good at jumping, this kid really didn't play at his real level in training, is this the so-called competitive player? No wonder Director Xu and Gao Jun repeatedly recommended to me at the beginning, this kid is indeed amazing, alas, it's a pity that he is still too short! Zhang Ning was both deeply surprised and a little regretful and thought, "This kid is an early child, and it is estimated that he will not grow a few centimeters, and the room for improvement of his bounce ability is also limited, and players of the same age have more room for growth than him in terms of height, strength and bounce, and he will not be able to do it in the future." Forget it, at least I can play a role in this World Junior Championships, and as for the future, the head coach at that time was not me."

In fact, what Zhang Ning didn't realize was that the reason why Bai Jiajun didn't show his real level in training was not because he was a "competitive player" who couldn't get excited until the game, but purely because he didn't need to rely on his body to do a good job of defense in training, and his excellent defensive awareness and defensive skills alone were enough to make him feel at ease, but Zhang Ning, who was not at a high level and always wore "colored glasses" because of Bai Jiajun's height, never saw this. He has never even asked Bai Jiajun to defend a big man over 1.8 meters tall in training, how can he know that he has such ability?

In addition, Bai Jiajun always looked wilted. The special temperament of a listless face can easily make people lack confidence in him, but Zhang Ning suddenly appeared now, under the unfavorable shape of the current score behind, Bai Jiajun's expression of seemingly indifferent to nothing unexpectedly dispelled the panic in the hearts of his teammates on the back line, "Is this the so-called general demeanor?" I don't think it looks like it! ”

Encouraged by Bai Jiajun's excellent performance, the players of the national junior team in the front court were obviously not as impatient as before, coupled with the loopholes in the back defense of the Ghana team, and finally the national junior team scored a goal each by Xie Wenjun and Yang Xu, equalizing the score and ending the game with twists and turns 2:2. As a result, the national junior team also topped the group with a record of two wins and one draw, and Ang advanced to the quarterfinals of this World Junior Championship.

However, due to the high uncertainty of the junior team's competition, the national junior team's group win not only failed to help them avoid strong opponents in the quarter-finals, but instead met the Mexican team, which eventually won the World Junior Championship in history

However, although Gao Jun, who is in China, knows the strength of the Mexican team, he feels that this is not necessarily a bad thing, "If we are the second in the group, we will meet the Turkish team, which is generally tall, and it may be even more difficult for this national junior team to play, and we have lost 1:5 in history!" ”

Although I am very concerned about the cousins in Peru, Gao Jun will not forget his business, because he will go to South Korea on September 28 to start the first leg of the AFC Champions League semifinals with the Busan idol team, and the game of the national junior team does not know when it will be finished, so in the 23rd round of the Shanghai Oriental team's away challenge to the Sichuan Guancheng team The game can only be strategically abandoned, and the substitutes on the bench played the best table so far, but they still lost with a score of 1:4, The gap between the Eastern team and Dalian Shide in the league standings has also widened to 5 points

In the early morning of the next day, there was good news from Peru on the other side of the world, and the Chinese national junior team, which had a number of players from the Oriental team, once again "upset", defeating the strong Mexican junior team with a score of 3:1, which means that the substitutes of the Oriental team cannot return to China to participate in the round of the Oriental team and the Busan idol team
