Mengxun Stadium.

Coach Meng shaved his beard, dressed in a suit, and walked in front of the players of the national youth team, and said cautiously: "Players, after this period of practice, I am very happy that you have all passed my assessment, and now I officially announce that you represent the Chinese World Youth Team and have the qualification to participate in the World Youth Cup!" ”

The players of the national youth team secretly exchanged glances with each other: What do you mean? - Dare to love that they are not members of the national youth team?! But seeing Wu Zejun, Li Jun and Xue Lin all gave each other a look, signaling everyone not to say much and listen carefully to Coach Meng's notice.

The players of the national youth team forcibly endured and did not interrupt, and listened to Coach Meng's straight to the point: "The opening ceremony of the World Youth Cup is about to be held, and we must not be absent...... I didn't tell you, but these days you're practicing hard and the sponsors are working the logistics. ”

Coach Meng clapped his hands, and saw several assistant coaches coming, holding twenty-three uniforms, and handing them to the players of the national youth team in turn - this is a brand new uniform, red shirts, white pants and blue shoes, simple, clear and generous, but I saw that the chest of the jersey was embroidered with the national emblem, with a picture of a panda waving bamboo "must strive for the top", as if it was a cute panda holding bamboo as a flag, shouting "must fight for the top"! The back of the jersey is marked with the jersey number, except for the absence of the number 13, from the number 1 to the number 24.

It was no surprise that Xue Lin was given the No. 1 jersey number – that was the exclusive jersey number of the goalkeeper!

Lang Tao was very happy to see that he actually got the number 10 jersey number - oh no, he should have worn the number 10 jersey number, who made him the captain of the national youth team?!

Ignoring a few teammates with sour mouths, Lang Tao said happily: "It's so handsome!" ”

is indeed handsome~ Not only is the jersey style designed exclusively for the World Youth Cup, but even the jersey number is Langtao's favorite, how can it not make Langtao happy?

Wu Zejun was expressionless and took the No. 11 jersey number, Jiang Wusheng took the No. 9 jersey number, Jiang Bisheng had a bitter face, holding the No. 8 jersey number, Zhao Jiayun was iron-faced, and he took the No. 7 jersey number!

A few are happy and a few are sad: Jiang Bisheng and Zhao Jiayun should always be happy, at least they don't have to be as sad as King Qian and Li Zhaoying, and they directly take the jersey numbers of the substitute players!

Coach Meng coughed heavily and reminded: "Give you five minutes, hurry up and change into your uniforms, and we will take the bus to the Bird's Nest Stadium - the host of the World Youth Cup, you must not forget, right?" ”

How can this be forgotten? ——The most famous sports stadium in China, isn't it the Bird's Nest?

At that moment, the players of the national youth team quickly went into the locker room with their clothes in their hands and changed their clothes.

Five minutes later, the players of the national youth team uniformed their clothes, followed Coach Meng, and stepped on a private bus - Guo Dong, the sponsor of the national youth team, acted as a driver in a friendly manner!

"It's worthy of being a CEO, and the driving level is slipping and slipping." Looking at Guo Dong driving, many players of the national youth team sighed, "No wonder they are CEOs, and we are just ordinary players." ”

"Now you are the players of the national youth team, which is not ordinary." Guo Dong drove seriously, and did not forget to chat with the players of the national youth team, "Do you know how popular our national youth team is?" - The whole country is watching you! You have to fight for luck, and you'd rather not fight for steamed buns and mouth! ”

"Poof~" Jiang Bisheng almost sprayed, "What country pays attention to us?" - Pay attention to our negative scandals, right? I remember that in the past few days, magazines, newspapers and the Internet have said a lot of bad things about our national youth team, Mr. Guo, don't comfort us. ”

After the end of the Devil's friendly match, the players of the national youth team wanted to give themselves a relaxing holiday, but they were disgusted by various reporters: the national football team is very bad, but there is no need to deliberately mock their national youth team~ They all blame the captain for his big mouth and set a flag, which caused them to be ridiculed by reporters, and all kinds of ridicule were endless, and I haven't seen a few serious articles encouraging them...... This bleak situation is close to Xue Lin's drug abuse incident, and the impact can be big or small, but fortunately, they were taken by Coach Meng for a comprehensive closed training camp, and this kind of responsible news can not interfere with the players of the national youth team for a while!

Jiang Bisheng remembered the deepest impression that he was playing online at night, and saw a fan's Weibo, saying that the national youth team was not ashamed, and he was waiting for words such as slapping his face, which won the applause of fans, and even many fans replied that they wanted to buy tickets to enter the Bird's Nest Stadium, specifically to watch the world youth team eat deflated - anyway, the national football team has been embarrassed more than once or twice, and it doesn't matter if you lose it again!

This move has attracted countless fans, who scolded the national football team for being lame, while looking forward to the rise of the national football team...... In short, it has attracted the attention of countless attention to the youth team, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain, and the players of the national youth team have some comfort, so they don't care about those overwhelming rumors.

Just let the reporters do a free promotion for the national youth team~

The national youth team players thought optimistically.

The private bus was speeding forward, and I don't know how long it took to finally reach its destination.

After getting off the bus, Coach Meng took the players of the national youth team to the Bird's Nest Stadium -

The Bird's Nest Stadium, as always, is very lively, and the World Youth Cup will be held soon, and it is even more crowded, not to mention the spectators who have entered one after another, just the participating teams, but also every three or five!

The players of the national youth team were very hot to see a number of foreign teams, and looked at the national emblems they were wearing, wasn't it the same world youth team that accompanied them in practice a few days ago?

"Adam-" Lang Tao saw Adam, the No. 10 captain of the German World Youth Team, and blurted out a shout, suddenly remembering that the other party did not know Chinese very well, so he had to shut his mouth in a daze.

Unexpectedly, Adam came back to his senses, fixed his eyes on Lang Tao's body, smiled faintly, and waved his hand swaggeringly to show that he recognized Lang Tao!

Several foreign World Youth Team players who had played friendly matches with the players of the national youth team also looked over one after another and nodded friendly to the players of the national youth team - everyone came from all over the world, and the language was different, so they could not communicate conveniently, so they had to express simple greetings with their eyes and movements.

The players of the national youth team are also very polite, and when they meet acquaintances, they all say hello: or squeeze their eyebrows, or shake hands, or smile, or wave their arms.

When I was young, dozens of teams gathered on the periphery of the Bird's Nest Stadium -

Like a major event, the announcer stays in the broadcast studio, holding the microphone, and the sound resounds through the microphone, unhurriedly introducing the entry of teams from various countries. The auditorium was packed, and if you looked closely, you could see that the audience was from different countries! But mainly for the domestic audience, the discussion is non-stop and noisy:

"Look! Look fast! Brazil is out! "I heard that the Brazilian World Youth Team is also participating in this year! Brazil is the kingdom of football! They're coming, and they're the World Youth Cup champions! "Who knows? The Brazilian World Youth Team has not attended the previous editions, and it is said that they have internal problems! "Awesome! I didn't participate in several consecutive sessions, which is unprecedented! "I hope Brazil will take it seriously from top to bottom! Youth training is the foundation! "The awesome didn't come, it's not a big deal! This is the World Youth Cup, not the World Cup! In other words, every time Brazil has many excellent players who have just emerged, they are poached and kicked in the league! ”

"I don't care if Brazil attends or not, I only care about our national youth team! Ask the national youth team to give some strength, so you can get out of the line? Don't be like before, you don't even have the qualifications to qualify! "The sports lottery is open again, and I spent most of my money to bet that the national youth team will win!" "What a brain-dead! Even if you support the national football team, you don't have to be serious about money, right? If you really want to lose, lose everything, don't be in a hurry to hang yourself! ”

"Haha~ I guess the Brazilian team can win! I bought the Brazilian team! "I'm going to go England!" "I bought all the teams that have won the championship in the past, and I can't guess if I don't believe it!" "Are you stupid? If you have money to buy a foreign team, it's better to keep the money to buy food! I'd rather feed myself than spend more money! ”

…… It was the turn of the national youth team players to step onto the pitch.

This is not the first time that Langtao has stepped into the Bird's Nest Stadium, but it is the first time that Langtao has come as the captain of the national youth team on behalf of the national football team - therefore, Langtao's mood is excited!

Inexplicably, Lang Tao remembered his dream again: to lead the World Youth Team and win the World Youth Cup!

Now, half of his dream is true: he is actually leading the World Youth team.

As for the World Youth Cup, it will take him and his teammates to work together!

Thinking of this, Lang Tao clenched his hands into fists and said silently: To win! To win! Be sure to win! There is only one path to victory, and no one can stop him! He's going to win the World Youth Cup!

After another moment, all the teams were in place.

Lang Tao counted curiously, and the number was nearly hundred.

The strange leader walked to the center of all the teams and said in a loud voice: "Thanks to the great assistance of all sponsors, my country can apply for the successful host country!" Dear national football players, welcome to your arrival, and wish you to go further and further in this World Youth Cup and achieve satisfactory results! Now, I would like to announce that this World Youth Cup has officially begun! The captains of the World Youth Teams from all countries are invited to come to the stage to draw lots! ”

As soon as he finished saying this paragraph, he saw dozens of translators translate in ten languages, attracting reporters to take pictures - the World Youth Cup football match was broadcast live!

In addition, the leader also made a few quick explanations, and immediately carried out the draw and arrangement.

Lang Tao and nearly 100 other captains took a step forward, and saw the welcome girls holding wooden boxes without lids and handing them to the captains of various countries one by one - when it was Langtao's turn, Langtao stretched out and smoked casually, it was Group F.

- The last group? Lang Tao is in the water: who will they play with?

However, I saw that the leader recorded the process of drawing lots for the captains of each country, and said: "The World Youth Cup will be held for 15 days, please pay attention to the follow-up notice on the official website tomorrow, we will discuss the rehearsal, and arrange a reasonable event as soon as possible!" ”

After that, a group of flowery girls appeared on the stage and danced.

Coach Meng was in an inconspicuous corner outside the field, desperately gesturing to the players of the national youth team: Exit!

While the girls were showing off their talents, hundreds of teams also lined up to leave.

That's it? - Lang Tao was dumbfounded: The rain is big, and the thunder is small?

The players of the national youth team did not care, obediently followed the public, and left the field silently.

Walking out of the Bird's Nest Stadium and returning to the private bus again, Guo Dong took the group of national youth team players back to the Mengxun Stadium.

After that, everyone disbanded on the spot, and they were not in the mood to train again - training is good, but overtraining is counterproductive: the players of the national youth team run 3,000 miles casually, then return to the dormitory building, and have a rare night off.

Although everyone didn't make it clear, they all silently waited for the announcement of the volleyball competition.

Late at night, the official website of the World Youth Cup finally issued a notice.

Without saying a word, everyone grasped the information for the first time, and only saw-

"Group A: Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Macedonia, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, Italy, Malta, Spain, Portugal, Andorra

Group B: England, Ireland, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Monaco, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Switzerland, Liechtenstein.

Group C: Germany, Austria, Sarnia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Western Russia, Iceland, Faroe Islands, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland.

D: Brazil, Canada, United States, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, Dominica, U.S. Virgin Islands.

Group E: Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, Japan, Libya, Algeria.

Group F: China, Philippines, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore, Indonesia, Timor-Leste, Syria, Republic of Korea, Turkey."

Stretching their necks, Lang Tao and the others widened their eyes, looked at it more than ten times, and finally made a rough record of the list of teams in each group. Then, Lang Tao and others complained blankly:

"This component, dare to divide it by state? How lucky is our team? - I was put into the weak group! ”

Isn't it? - None of the strong teams are in Group F!

If you play all the way, if you lose, you can go straight to the final of the World Youth Cup?!

Compared with the group of death in Europe, they must go through fierce battles before they can qualify.

Compared with the two, the damage is off the charts!

Inexplicably, Lang Tao and others wondered: Did the Football Association do something?

How else could they be so lucky? - This is not scientific!

However, no matter how suspicious they are, Lang Tao and others are eager to try: Perhaps, the national football team has a chance to win the championship of this World Youth Cup? ……
