Although there were several warm-up games before, after all, there was no Chen Zhuo present, and the Hong Kong team without Chen Zhuo was another team, not to mention that now Chen Zhuo, Garsen, Lin Zhijian and Xie Jiaqiang are four European players playing together.

Although it was only an internal match, the spirit of the Hong Kong team players today seemed to be very different.

"Dudu Dudu~~~" Baggio whistled to stop the game and arranged: "Patton, go to Team B to play back, Xie Jiaqiang to play behind, you, Zhai Tingfeng, you come to Team A......"

"Dududu~~~" Baggio whistled again to interrupt the game and ordered: "Everyone stand still and don't move, look at your own position!" Xu, where should your position be? When Lin called you just now, didn't you immediately retreat? And you, Ouyang ......"

In the first 45 minutes of the match, Baggio's whistle was interrupted more than 20 times, and on average, Baggio would blow the whistle to interrupt the game and say a few words.

In the second 45 minutes, the game seemed much smoother, and there was basically no disconnect on the three lines, and this disconnect was the biggest reason for the Hong Kong team's loss in the warm-up match in the previous week.

"Warm-up matches and confrontation matches are all about finding problems and testing training results, but competitive sports have a competitive element in them!" Chen Zhuo said.

After the match, the players had to ask Chen Zhuo to sum up a few words, and Baggio and the members of the coaching staff did not object.

"Where's the competition? Can anyone tell me? Come on, you. Guo Jianbang, come on! Oh...... Uh-huh, that's well said! Did you hear what Jianbang said clearly, I repeat, Jianbang said that the competitiveness of the competition is the competition within the team, to determine who can play the main force! Very well spoken! Chen Zhuo interacted with everyone, pointed at Xia Zhiming, and asked, "Zhiming." Tell me about it. What is the competitive component of our warm-up game? ”

"It's all about getting the chance, and if you do well in the intra-team competition, you have the opportunity to participate in the warm-up game, and you can perform well in the warm-up game. There's a chance to participate in the main race! Xia Zhiming said.

Chen Zhuo praised: "Very good. Zhiming said a word. Opportunity! I add one more word, improve! For ourselves, training. Competitions, including intra-team matches, warm-up matches, and official competitions, are all opportunities to improve one by one! ”

Chen Zhuo gestured as he spoke, and the players nodded in agreement.

"Then we'll go back to training! In the days when Coach Baggio led everyone to practice together, who felt that they had improved raised their hands to show me! Chen Zhuo asked.

Everyone raised their hands, Chen Zhuo nodded and motioned for everyone to put it down, and continued: "Very good, everyone feels that they have improved, does anyone feel that the training amount is not enough and wants to increase the amount?" ”

Everyone laughed, thinking that Chen Zhuo was joking, who would have such a request, even Baggio, who heard the coach's translation of Chen Zhuo's meaning, was happy, how could there be such a ......

Actually...... There were two, oh no, three players raised their hands, and the third player who raised his hand obviously hesitated for fear that only he would raise his hand, and when he looked back to see someone raise his hand, he raised his half-raised arm.

"And me!" Garson also raised his arm, he only acted after listening to his teammates' translation, and the delay of a second or two was not his responsibility.

Chen Zhuo looked over, and the two in front of him raised their hands almost at the same time, one was the fullback Guo Jianbang, and the other was the central defender Zhai Tingfeng, both of whom were Hong Kong players. And after hesitating for a while, he raised his hand, it was the shadow of Team B, Chao Pengfei, born in 1987, just turned 23 years old, like Xu Deshuai, Chao Pengfei is also the "national aid" of the Dalian Shide Youth Team to Hong Kong.

The term "national aid" originated in Hong Kong, China, when Hong Kong people used to use it to refer to mainland players who came to play in Hong Kong. Judging from the nearly 20-year history of "national aid", their performance has been brilliant and bleak several times, but they have never given up their dreams, and have written the "Hong Kong spirit" of outsiders with hard sweat, and they have slowly won the understanding and respect of Hong Kong people in the process.

In 1993, the Hong Kong Football Association began to open up the terms for the introduction of mainland players, stipulating that "national aid" would no longer occupy the "foreign aid" quota of Hong Kong professional teams.

By the way, let's talk a little about the history of "national aid", the first official "national aid" of Hong Kong professional football is Song Lianyong, a Tianjin player who played in Hong Kong in 1993, born in 1965, he was 28 years old when he joined Hong Kong South China, Song Lianyong was the main force of the Chinese national youth team at the 1985 World Youth Championships, and the starting strikers of the national youth at that time were him and Gao Hongbo. In 1997, Song Lianyong obtained permanent residency and represented the Hong Kong team in the Shijie Cup qualifiers, firing the first shot of national aid.

In 1997, two-time Chinese Footballer of the Year winner Wu Qunli joined Nanhua, bringing the status of "national aid" in the minds of Hong Kong people to the peak. Although "Lizai" was 34 years old at the time, and the injuries left by years of playing on the green field could no longer cope with the full 90 minutes of the game, he was still an indispensable core of the South China team.

Liang Zhishou, a former South China director who worked with Wu Qunli, recalled: "With his level, even a few minutes can change the tide of battle. At that time, I often said to my opponent, even if you are ahead in the first 60 minutes, I don't care, as long as Zuihou 30 minutes, I send Lizai on the field, and I will also win you. ”

Of course, this also reflects the level of the Hong Kong league from another angle, in those two seasons, "Lizai" is also fame and fortune, at least 50,000 Hong Kong dollars monthly salary, but also twice selected for the Hong Kong league best 11 team, at that time 50,000 Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to more than 60,000 yuan, and at that time in the early days of the professional league, the general monthly salary of Chinese mainland players was only 3,000 to 5,000 yuan, like Chen Zhuo once played for the Bayi team, at that time the monthly salary was lower.

Then, the financial turmoil of 1997 led to a sharp recession in Hong Kong. The economic downturn has also led to a decrease in investment in football, and the Chinese football professional league has entered a period of rapid growth, since the turn of the millennium, especially after China entered the Shijie Cup in 2002, more "national aid" are outdated players to retire and pan for gold, and also bring the bad habits in the imperfect and unhealthy Chinese professional league, and ruin the image of "national aid" a lot.

One of the most famous cases is Zhang Enhua, in one year's league, for reasons that are inconvenient to say, he actually took the initiative to maliciously foul and apply for a red card in the penultimate round of the league, so that he could not participate in the first round of the game. This kind of behavior is greatly despised by Hong Kong fans. 2010 is May of this year. Hong Kong's Independent Commission Against Corruption even detected a gambling incident, arrested five "national aid" and prosecuted them for bribery, which almost made the image of "national aid" fall to the bottom.

It was at this time that Fok Zhenlin and the Hong Kong FA introduced Chen Zhuo. wants to use him to "save the market". It's a risky move. Therefore, Chen Zhuo will also cause protests when he arrives in Hong Kong and participates in the "Hong Kong and Macau Cup".

However, with Chen Zhuo's eye-catching performance in the European arena and the introduction of Baggio as the coach of the Hong Kong football team by the Hong Kong Football Association through Chen Zhuo, a series of "bailout" moves have had an effect. The Hong Kong ball market is gradually recovering.

When it comes to "national aid", in fact, there should be a person to mention, in fact, many veteran fans may not be able to remember this name, Li Haiqiang.

Li Haiqiang, who was born in Meizhou, Guangdong, was selected for Milu's national team in 1999, but in the end he did not enter the top 10 squad, let alone enter the Japan and South Korea Shijie Cup.

At that time, Li Haiqiang was the core of the Guangdong Hongyuan team after Li Bing and Ma Mingyu left, and in 1997, at the age of 20, he was relegated to the first B with the Guangdong Hongyuan team, but he quickly rose to prominence in the first B league, including being selected for Milu's squad.

Although Li Haiqiang played well, but football is a team sport after all, Li Haiqiang alone finally failed to bring Guangdong Hongyuan into the A, and finally Li Haiqiang decided to leave Hongyuan and transfer to Qingdao Hailifeng, but when the transfer was about to be finalized, Guangdong Hongyuan team fired Li Haiqiang in the name of "suspected match-fixing", which is equivalent to blocking all the future of Li Haiqiang in Chinese football.

According to Li Haiqiang, this is the "revenge" that the Hongyuan club cannot retain, and for him personally, his arms can't twist his thighs, but this kind of thing is indeed too complicated, and the environment of Chinese football at that time was so messy.

All in all, a 22-year-old player who was selected for the national team, good at central organization and long-range shooting, as well as left-footed free kick kung fu, was cut off like this, maybe there was his own reason, maybe he was wronged, maybe he could only be described as having eggs under the nest, and the blame was placed on the environment.

In 2006, Li Haiqiang, who was 29 years old and almost completely faded out of people's field of vision, was invited to join Hong Kong South China, and in the first season of joining, Li Haiqiang led the team to win the Silver Cup, FA Cup and League Championship, became the Triple Crown, was selected into the best 11 of the season, and was elected Hong Kong Footballer, and in the 2007-2008 season, Li Haiqiang was still in good shape and was re-elected as Footballer.

The end of his career with two Hong Kong footballer of the year is also a consolation for Li Haiqiang.

In the 2010 Hong Kong Professional League, it was basically the trough period of "national aid", there were about 30 players, and among these players, they were officially naturalized to represent the Hong Kong team in international competitions, Bacho's team, including Chen Zhuo, there are a total of four players, and the other three are A pair of defenders with Lin Zhijian, Xu Deshuai, Chao Pengfei, who hesitated to raise his hand, and Ju Yingzhi, who served as a fullback in Team B.

In the Hong Kong League, Xu Deshuai played for Nanhua, Chao Pengfei played for Chenxi, and Ju Yingzhi played for Citizen, each of them was the main player, but these three players were teammates in the 2004 and 2005 seasons, all of them were players of the Dalian Shide team, and they were all products of the Dalian Youth Academy.

In fact, there are many interesting stories of football in every city and every region, Hong Kong football also has a story of "Hero Hui" who became famous with a goal, and there is also a stumbling experience like Li Haiqiang who found his own home.

Four players who raised their hands to ask for more weight, Baggio handed them over to Chen Zhuo, and Chen Zhuo himself wanted to increase the amount of training, and Baggio also knew this situation, 100 balls were added to the dead corner, Chen Zhuo was still insisting, and there was also a confrontational training with Vanney every week when he was competing for the landing point, and now Lucatoni, Garson, and Kaladze have all joined their "additional training team".

The one who got the most out of the extra training was Garson, who learned offensive skills from Lucatoni and Ruud van Nistelrooy, and defensive from Chen Zhuo and Kaladze, and he was learning and practicing everyone's "stunts".

For example, the skills and experience of learning how to be a "wall" from Lucatoni, and Chen Zhuo's "tactic" of letting Garson run more than 40 meters to knock down Nesta in the game against Milan, which made Baggio listen to Hahadaxiao.

At present, Chen Zhuo and Garson each have the content of additional training, but Guo Jianbang, Zhai Tingfeng and Chao Pengfei are not there for the time being, after reading the training syllabus of the three of them, Chen Zhuo asked the three of them to temporarily practice in liliang and physical fitness, for ball skills, Chen Zhuo's understanding is the same as the problems pointed out in Baggio's training syllabus, on the basis of physical fitness and liliang can be guaranteed, jishu and tactical practice are meaningful.

Chen Zhuo's image is analogous to say that technology and tactics are like the firepower equipment on a tank, while Liliang is the protective equipment of the tank, and physical fitness is the power equipment, which is divided into two types: speed and endurance. These are the three elements of a tank, firepower, protection and power, all three of which are indispensable.

For the players of the entire Hong Kong team, these three aspects are very lacking, and Liliang and physical deficiencies are even worse, although they often refer to themselves as "southern factions" and use jishu and liliang types to justify themselves, but it is clear that even Brazil, the ancestor of the Jishu faction, and Spain and Portugal of the European Latin faction, they will never have liliang and players with major physical deficiencies.

Indeed, when jishu is superb, you can use skills to resolve collisions and brute force, but jishu practice is by no means something that can be solved in 28 days, according to scientific research, the jishu training period of football players is 6 to 19 years old, basically over 20 years old and then jishu training, progress will be very slow.

Chen Zhuo still took AC Milan as an example, in the current AC Milan, Chen Zhuo divided the players into three types: genius players and muscular men, and running immortals, and asked the players who thought they were geniuses.

"Have you ever seen four o'clock in the morning in the United States?" NBA's "genius" Kobe Bryant once asked that his achievements stem from the morning workouts he has insisted on since high school, and because he has put in more than ordinary efforts. (To be continued......)
