「…… 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! ……」

In just one night, the sports channel broadcast on every TV rebroadcast this link many times, although it was only about ten minutes, but it taught all the domestic viewers to clearly understand: the World Youth Cup has begun.

Although the World Youth Cup is not as good as the World Cup, it is also a very influential football game, and the organizers are their home country, as well as the second-class national youth team players who are said to have threatened to win the World Youth Cup......

In any case, even if they dislike the national football team too badly, the audience with different appearances still pays attention to it secretly, trying their best to hide the terrible idea that "the national football team will definitely rise".

- There is no way, the national football team has taught domestic fans to be disappointed, and everyone has been abused out of the psychological shadow.

However, even if the national football team is very bad, everyone still hopes that the national football team will eventually become strong one day.

Late at night, the players of the national youth team couldn't sleep, and their mobile phones were infinitely disturbed by their parents and relatives at home -

"Hello? Smash~ Did you participate in the World Youth Cup? The rough voice could be heard clearly from the phone from afar, "I saw you on TV!" Not bad~ Let's be selected for the national youth team, your father and I are very face-saving! Play well, understand? We must win glory for the motherland! ”

Duanmu Lu half-narrowed his eyes and said "hmm" in a daze-is his turn to be greeted by his relatives? …… After the announcement of the World Youth Cup volleyball match, the mobile phones of the players of the national youth team rang one after another, and it was nothing more than the 23 selected national youth team players who appeared on TV and shocked their parents and relatives!

"Well done." In the other dormitory, it was even more lively, and the seven roommates stared intently at Jiang Wusheng holding his mobile phone, listening to his father's praise from the mobile phone with a serious face, "The four of you must play football tacitly, strive for the four of you to play football together, no matter what the result is, you don't have to regret doing your best!" ”

The seven roommates covered their faces and silently complained: Wow~ Enough wow~ Don't say it again!

"Come on, kick!" The calm male voice revealed a hint of joy, "I will take the whole family to the stadium to cheer you up!" ”

"Thank you, Dad!" Jiang Wusheng thanked him solemnly, and treated his father like a subordinate respecting his boss.

"Alright, it's not too early, you guys have a good rest." After the man's voice finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"I'm convinced." Lang Tao gave Jiang Wusheng a thumbs up, "This dialogue mode is also officially out of bounds - you tell me honestly, are you a child paper picked up on the side of the road?" ……”

"Can you pick up four in one pick? - Don't tease me! Wu Zejun listened, and rushed to Lang Tao's bed - Wu Zejun and Lang Tao happened to sleep on the same floor and were close together, and before Jiang Wusheng taught Lang Tao a lesson, he cleaned up Lang Tao, "You bastard boy, what nonsense?" ”

Lang Tao was patted on the head by Wu Zejun, and said in annoyance: "You are just talking nonsense!" I'm just joking, you even made a joke about Jiang Bisheng...... Which of us is more? ”

Wu Zejun retracted the thief's hand and explained, "I don't mean anything else......"

"I understand." Jiang Bisheng twitched, "But I'm still very unhappy...... To make me happy, please fix the captain for a few of us. ”

"Haole~" Wu Zejun pounced towards Langtao with his teeth and claws, making a gesture to strangle Langtao's neck.

Lang Tao hurriedly retreated, fell to the corner, and said angrily: "Do you remember that I am the captain? - It's too much! Pinch the captain again, beware of the captain giving you little shoes! ”

"Le~Shang~" Zhao Jiayun didn't think it was a matter of coaxing, cheering and shouting, "When the Lang team stops, it will be my turn to take the position~" Li Guangwu on the side supported his forehead, and he couldn't control the former school football deputy team who was wild.

"Think beautifully!" Lang Tao was furious, "Before I step down, I must kill you first...... Ahh With me here, don't think I'll give way! ”

"Hahahaha-" Jiang Biyun and Jiang Biqing, who were watching, were overjoyed.

The cell phone rang again, interrupting the commotion.

It's Langtao's mobile phone.

Lang Tao waved his hand and signaled Wu Zejun not to make any more trouble. When Wu Zejun saw it, he obediently crawled back to his bed.

Lang Tao looked at it, and it turned out to be a call from his father.

"Hey~Dad?" Facing the phone, Lang Tao smiled and said, "How?" – Any thoughts? ”

"Our house is about to be surrounded by reporters until the house is about to collapse!" Father Lang spoke angrily over the phone, "As soon as you boys appeared on TV, our neighbors were all boiling, and they didn't even let them know about the jokes that we kept our mouths tightly closed...... They all said that if they knew this, they must have watched the game more! ”

"Wahaha~" Lang Tao smiled and fell on the bed, "Everyone likes football, right?" ”

"I can't guarantee whether I like football or not, but I like to watch you play, that's for sure." Father Lang sighed, "Son, your mother and I wanted to cheer you on in front of the TV, but the neighbors said that they would come to the scene to cheer you on...... Alas~ It seems that I can't save that expense of going out~ It's distressing! ”

"What nonsense?" On the other end of the phone, it was suspected that Lang's mother pushed Lang's father, "I saw your son as the captain of the national youth team on TV, I was so happy that I couldn't close my mouth, drank tea three times, was choked three times, and laughed stupidly, aren't you happy for your son?" - What are you doing upside down! ”

Lang Tao grinned, listening so unhappily.

Rolling his eyes, Lang Tao comforted: "Don't be sad - you tell me the list of people who are going to watch the ball game, and I'll go back to Guo Dong and ask him to reimburse the travel expenses~ So you should be satisfied, right?" ”

"Won't it be too embarrassing for him?" Lang's father said hesitantly.

"Don't be embarrassed, don't be embarrassed." Lang Tao waved his hand, "That's what the dead friends are used for." ”

“…… What the? ”

"I mean, Guo Dong must be happy!" Lang Tao revealed it lightly, and told Lang Father a lot of interesting things before hanging up the phone.

Then, Lang Tao called Guo Dong again and said straight to the point: "Dear Dongzi, do you have any money?" INTERVIEWER My neighbors from my hometown want to come to see the game, would you be interested in reimbursing their travel expenses? ”

"No problem!" Guo Dong also spoke happily, "It's not difficult to reimburse, as long as you win the World Youth Cup, let alone reimburse them, even if you reimburse all the cheerleaders who cheer you on, it won't work!" ”

"You...... How generous are you? Lang Tao was shocked.

"Just give some benefits to your national youth team." Guo Dong spoke arrogantly, "You talk to your teammates, let them make a list, and I will reimburse them!" By the way, sports lottery, I'm betting on your national youth team to win - if you lose and let me lose everything, I'll rely on you to feed myself. ”

"It's not hard to have an extra mouth!" Lang Tao took it all over, "I'll tell them to go when I go back!" ”

After chatting for a while, Lang Tao hung up the phone.

"Did you hear that?" Raising his head, Lang Tao said earnestly, "Guo Dong is so generous, we as players can't be ungrateful, and we have to win the World Youth Cup championship even if we die!" ”

The eyelids of the seven roommates jumped wildly, and they silently sighed Lang Tao's inner toughness: Do you really think that the World Youth Cup champion is said to be won? - The World Youth Cup champion is the cabbage in the field? Pick it up if you want?! ……

Getting up with a grunt, Lang Tao said first: "You make a list, give it to me later, I'll take a photo and send it to Guo Dong!" Then he rushed out of the door and yelled at the top of his voice: "Open the door!" It's open! Our sponsors will do good deeds to the end and reimburse our cheerleaders for the fare! Not only our original cheerleaders, but also our relatives and friends, the opportunity is rare, speed up the list to me, I will hand it in uniformly! ”

shouted and woke up the 22 players of the national youth team.

Everyone didn't care about resting, making phone calls, writing lists, making a fuss for more than an hour, and finally making a list of all the lists. After that, Lang Tao worked hard to take a photo, sent it to Guo Dong, and then reported a few more, and saw Guo Dong reply with a text message on his mobile phone:

"Okay~ No problem! Later, I will give you red envelopes, and these red envelopes will be reimbursed for expenses."

Not to mention how everyone received a big red envelope this night, and red their relatives and friends, in short, the players of the national youth team felt that they hadn't slept much all night, and they were nervous and excited, looking forward to the arrival of dawn.

It's dawn.

"Guys, are you up?" Coach Meng walked downstairs from downstairs to downstairs, passed by a door, kicked open the door, and complained with an unhappy expression, "What were you all doing last night?" - Shouting all night long, and not letting people sleep? ”

The eight players in the dormitory had already finished dressing, and they touched their noses when they heard the words: Last night, Langtao WeChat set up a group, pulled all 22 players into a group, and pulled Guo Dong to send a big red envelope in the group. After everyone took the red envelope, they were threatened by Lang Tao again, and shouted countless times all night that "the national youth team will win ~ the World Youth Cup champion belongs to our national youth team", shouting and shouting, they were all numb!

Habit, it's really scary: their brains are in water, and they really think that the World Youth Cup championship is not difficult!

"Assemble at the court!" After Coach Meng dropped this sentence, he left without looking back.

Ten minutes later, the players of the national youth team gathered at the Mengxian Training Stadium.

After that, the players of the national youth team were sent into a private bus by Coach Meng and taken to the Bird's Nest Stadium.

On the way, Coach Meng gave the players of the national youth team a tireless introduction to the World Youth Cup competition process.

The World Youth Cup is divided into two phases –

Stage 1: The 96 teams are divided into six groups, and the group stage is played in a single round-robin format, with the top two teams in each group and the four best group runners-up advancing to the round of 16! If there is a tie, compare goal difference, goals, mutual records between teams with the same score, goal difference between teams with the same score, goals scored, etc.!

The second stage: the teams after the qualification will have a knockout system, the top 16, the quarterfinals, the semi-finals, the third place match and the final will all be in the form of a winner! If the winner is not decided within 90 minutes, the first half will be played for 15 minutes of extra time each, and if the winner is not decided in extra time, the winner will be decided by penalty kick!

"In other words, in the group stage, you just need to finish in the top two." Coach Meng took out a piece of paper from his pocket, "You are in Group F, there are few strong teams in Group F, if you can't win the top two, you might as well go home and farm...... By the way, you may not be able to do farming! ”

Encouraged by Coach Meng's sarcasm, the players of the national youth team decided not to eat steamed buns and fight for breath, and went all out to win the top two in the group stage!

"You guys have a great qualifying rate." Coach Meng wanted to speak and stopped, "As long as the general direction is good, you will basically qualify." ”

Coach Meng didn't dare to say a word: The qualifying is slippery~ Don't you make the Football Association open enough back door for you~ Take a look at the strength of this group, and then compare it with other groups, if you can't get out of the line, I'm really sorry for the face of the Football Association! This time, the Football Association also lost all the essence of the festival, so that the national youth team can earn some face for the national football team!

The World Cup Youth Volleyball Tournament has shady ...... There are no cliffs - no wonder!

The players of the national youth team nodded and promised: "Qualify!" Outlet! ”

The opponent is so weak, they will definitely rush out of the group in one go and refuse the second place in the group!

When I arrived at my destination, it was just over seven o'clock.

The players of the national youth team looked around and suddenly realized that the number of people in the Bird's Nest Stadium was much smaller.

Moreover, everyone was shocked to realize an important fact: although the Bird's Nest Stadium is very large, beautiful and magnificent, there is only one stadium! …… There are nearly 100 teams participating in the World Youth Cup! How do you have to kick this to be all kicked in fifteen days?!

"Rest assured, rest assured." Coach Meng didn't care, "Although there is only one stadium in the Bird's Nest Stadium, there is more than one stadium in our capital?" - Teams from other groups have already been arranged to go to other stadiums! ”

"Wow~" Lang Tao's face twitched fiercely, "The organizers of the World Youth Cup give us too much face, only our group is qualified to play football at the Bird's Nest Stadium?!" ”

"It's as if the organizer is a foreign country." Coach Meng knocked on Lang Tao's head, "Long snack eyes?" In the end, he was born by his own mother, how could he not give his own team a VIP-level treatment? ”

"A group of sixteen!" Lang Tao touched his head, "Can you kick it all in one day?" ”

"Of course not." Coach Meng rolled his eyes, "You really don't even pay attention to common sense except for playing?" - The group stage will take several days! …… By the way, it's not your turn to play today! ”

"Huh?" The national youth team players blinked, "So what did you tell us to do?" ”

"Stupid!" Coach Meng hates that iron is not steel, "Obviously he looks like an elite, but he is stupid and cute inside!" You don't know how to watch football games, do you? - Besides, are your friends and relatives here? Didn't you come to play football? ”

The players of the national youth team bowed their heads and seriously reviewed them.

"Let's go!" Coach Meng waved his hand and brought the players of the national youth team into the Bird's Nest audience.

At the same time, the hour hand pointed to half past seven, and two strange teams walked into the Bird's Nest Stadium -

It's time for the tournament!
