Chapter 917: Out in Shame

The first game of the Asian Cup of the Chinese team got off to a good start, sweeping the host Malaysia 5:1, another strong opponent in the same group, and also the bitter host of the Chinese team - the Iranian team then defeated the Central Asian wolf Uzbekistan, and took the initiative in the competition for group qualification, as long as they beat Malaysia and did not lose to the Chinese team, they could qualify from the group.

With the strength of the Iranian team, there is obviously no doubt about winning Malaysia, and it is also a high probability event not to lose to the Chinese team, which means that the Iranian team is basically ashore.

In this way, for the Chinese team, the second game of the group against the Iranian team has become not so important, if they win Iran, they cannot guarantee to qualify, and if they lose to Iran, as long as they beat Uzbekistan, they can also qualify, and the second round of the game with the Iranian team, the Chinese team is still relatively relaxed in terms of mentality.

After the start of the game, the Chinese team took the lead in attacking, and scored two goals in a row by Shao Gang, who played in the Bundesliga, and Mao Jianqing, who played in the Chinese Super League, took the lead in the game.

However, the shortcomings of the Chinese team's weak psychology were magnified when Iran counterattacked, wanting to win and afraid of losing, passive defense, and finally Iran scored two goals in a row to equalize the score.

Such a game is not so critical, the win or loss is not the key to the Chinese team, because the last game and Uzbekistan is the most important, but the coach and players of the Chinese team are too stupid, such a game is too fierce, the players lack overall thinking, the midfielder Zheng Hua and the backbone of the defense Li Feng both received yellow cards, and the main goalkeeper Li Lei was injured, which had a great impact on the final decisive battle with Uzbekistan.

Although the main players were injured, because of the first two games of the group stage, the Chinese team won one and drew one, and Uzbekistan won one and lost one.

But looking back on history, it is a curse of the Chinese team to qualify after a draw, and every time it is a draw, even if it is against the fish belly team, the Chinese team always loses out.

In the 1980 Olympic qualifiers, the Chinese team played the last game against the Singapore team, and the Chinese team led by Nian Weisi only needed a draw to qualify. However, more than 30 shots on goal failed to get a goal, and the opponent scored a goal, and the group stage was eliminated.

1983。 11。 12 Los Angeles Olympic Games qualifiers, the Chinese team only needs to draw with Thailand away to qualify, but unfortunately the Chinese team has a 0:1 exit

The "May 19 Incident" in 1985 was an eternal pain in Chinese football. In the World Cup qualifiers that year, the Chinese team drew with Hong Kong, China in Beijing to qualify from the group. As a result, in the second half, the opponent scored the winning goal in a quick counterattack and lost 1-2

In 1992, Xu Genbao led the team south to Kuala Lumpur to compete with South Korea for the Barcelona Olympic ticket. The National Olympic team can qualify if they draw in the last game. As a result, the Chinese team conceded three goals in the opening 9 minutes and was finally eliminated 1-3, which is also the origin of the Chinese team's "Koreanophobia".

In the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games qualifiers, the last game against the South Korean team was a draw to qualify, but the Chinese team collapsed 0-3 and hated again.

In the past 2006 World Cup qualifiers in Germany, the Chinese team and the Kuwait team started a battle to qualify for the group, as long as the away team drew to basically qualify from the group, but the Chinese team finally lost 0-1.

Now, China is about to qualify for a draw again, Chinese fans are worried, and the media is optimistic and half negative.

Zhu Guanghu, the head coach of the national team, is under a lot of psychological pressure, because the Chinese team has no history of not even being able to get past the group stage in the Asian Cup, and if he really loses to Uzbekistan, he will be nailed to the pillar of shame.

But what you're afraid of comes, the last game with Uzbekistan, the Chinese team continued the tactics with Iran, and was not conservative, and attacked at the beginning, but the luck was not as good as the game with the Iranian team, and the attack did not score, and then Zhu Guanghu's team contracted the defense and tried to hold the draw, but at this time, the mistakes made in the previous game were punished in this game, Uzbekistan attacked and got a free kick opportunity, and the Chinese team made a mistake when defending, Scored by Uzbekistan star Shatskikh.

Then the Chinese team collapsed psychologically, was scored by Uzbekistan in a row, and finally lost 0:3 to the Central Asian Wolves, and fell again in front of the curse of qualifying after a draw.

The defeat of the Chinese team set a record of shame, and it was the first time in nearly 27 years that the Chinese team did not qualify for the Asian Cup group.

After the game, the whole of China is about to boil, Chinese fans who are tortured by conservative Chinese football can no longer stand it, from Malaysia to Chinese mainland, almost every large and medium-sized city has fans angrily demanding that the Chinese team be disbanded, wish Guanghu to leave class, and the Chinese Football Association to disband.

After watching the Chinese team's 0:3 loss to Uzbekistan, Chen Yu was also very depressed and surprised, although he didn't like the players and coaches of this national team, and he was not optimistic that they would be able to go further, but he still didn't expect that the Chinese team would not even be able to qualify from the group.

After the game, Chen Yu invited Wang Zhan and Gao Fei, old friends of the national team, as well as Shao Gang and Sun Hai, who played in Europe together, to set up a game at the Hilton Hotel in Kuala Lumpur to catch up with them and let them relax.

Before coming to Malaysia, the players of the Chinese team were in high spirits, and there were star-chasing fans asking for autographs everywhere, but now the players of the Chinese team are wearing civilian clothes and sunglasses, and they avoid Chinese fans when they see them, for fear of being recognized.

Seeing Chen Yu, the five people greeted each other, and the others didn't want to say anything more about the game, but Gao Fei, who didn't have a chance to play until the end, said angrily that he was playing like a ****, and he knew such a humiliating result, and he should have refused to join the national team like Chen Yu.

Wang Zhandao: "You are the same as Chen Yuneng, if you dare to refuse, you don't want to go in again in this life, Chen Yu refuses ten times, and someone will invite him for the eleventh time, look, after the fans scold us and the Football Association, they will immediately call on Chen Yu to enter the national team." ”

Shao Gang had a good relationship with Gao Fei, Chen Yu and head coach Zhu Guanghu, and he said to Gao Fei: "In fact, if you didn't fall behind at that time, the head coach should have replaced you, but when the score was behind and you needed to attack, you definitely didn't have a chance." ”

Chen Yu said with a smile: "It's useless to be on anyone, you lost from the beginning, the three games are a whole, except for the first game, you played well, and the arrangements for the next two games are wrong." ”

Sun Haidao: "Yes, the second game shouldn't be so hard, but after meeting the Iranian team, new hatred and old hatred came to my heart, and I lost my calm." ”

Chen Yu said: "Players can lose their cool, but the coach must remain calm, and Zhu Guanghu's command this time is unqualified." ”

Gao Fei sneered: "When will he qualify, the key is who selected him, a soldier, a nest of bears, there is such a coach, there is such a football association, no wonder Chen Yu does not enter the national team." ”

Chen Yu said: "Don't say that, it was the national team that expelled me, I can't go back in vain." ”

Sun Haidao: "In fact, the arrangement of Zhu Guanghu's guidance for the last game cannot be said to be completely wrong, although the opening attack consumes a lot of physical energy, but if you can score a goal, I am afraid the result will be different." ”

Gao Fei sneered: "If you want to score a goal to find Chen Yu, he averages one goal per game in Europe, and he can't let go of that noble face, so he went to Europe, only let Guo Zuojin guide him to find Chen Yu, and lie down in the hotel by himself, I am Chen Yu, and I ignore him." ”

Wang Zhan said: "Don't complain, don't complain, it's all over anyway, drink and drink, after getting drunk, what shame is not shameful, and it is not up to us to decide, as long as we have a clear conscience, earn the money we should earn, and live our lives well." ”

Chen Yu applauded and smiled: "It's still Wang Zhan's idea, I don't mention football today, I only talk about feelings." ”

When Chen Yu and his old friends of the national team gathered, the officials of the Chinese Football Association were also having dinner in a not very well-known hotel in Malaysia, but the atmosphere at the dinner table was very solemn, and no one moved much wine and food.

Every time there is a failure, someone must take the blame, this time the blame must be the head coach Zhu Guanghu, although the fans think that Zhu Guanghu and the players are the culprits, but now the Chinese fans have become much more rational than the original, they believe that the Chinese Football Association and the rigid system are the culprits of failure, only the fault is pushed to the head coach and players, Chinese football will inevitably continue to fail in the future, the Chinese Football Association wants to rise, it must reform the current system.

For the Chinese Football Association, the national team can be disbanded, and the head coach can be dismissed, but the system cannot be changed, because this is the key to their benefits.

"Someone must be responsible for this loss, the Asian Cup group can't qualify, the World Cup can still qualify, Zhu Guanghu has the greatest responsibility, there is no doubt about this, but is the fault just on Zhu Guanghu alone?"

Yan Shiduo, the chairman of the Football Association, looked stern, as if this responsibility belonged to others and had nothing to do with him.

No one spoke at the wine table, and the two chairmen, Nanyang and Yang Jian, also wanted to speak.

"I wish a mediocre coach like Mitsudo must leave the class, but we also have to re-examine our selection criteria, and the local coach is still not good, they just invite foreign teachers is the current trend."

Yan Shiduo pointed the finger at Vice Chairman Nanyang, who was a supporter of Zhu Guanghu.

Nanyang bowed his head and was silent, but secretly spit out a mouthful of phlegm, expressing his disdain, because the national team has not invited a foreign coach, and the results are not better than the local coach.

Yan Shiduo was about to continue to fight his opponent, when suddenly the mobile phone rang, he wanted to hang up, look at the number, it was actually the number of the Liu Bureau of the General Administration of Sports, he quickly signaled everyone to eat first, and ran out to answer the phone by himself.
