The Asian qualifiers of the World Preliminary Tournament in '97 were very interesting, the Chinese team first had 3 consecutive away games, and then 3 consecutive home games. The Chinese men's football team, which took away six goal sheets from Turkmenistan in the first stop, came to the second away venue – Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan.

In the first round of the group, the home team, which also defeated the opponent by a large score, was also in high spirits, and launched a fierce attack on the Chinese team's penalty area at the beginning of the game. In the first 15 minutes of the opening game, the opponent frequently used two wings to start the ball in the penalty area, thanks to the strong physical fitness of Lao Fan and Kuroko, so that the Chinese team did not suffer on the header, but despite this, the national football team was still suppressed and miserable. The key is that the midfielder can't hold the ball at all, Qi Hong and Peng Weiguo's physical disadvantage is completely leaked out at this moment, the first point of the siege is that the opponent doesn't even need to foul, jump up and give you back, this is enough for Peng Da and Qi Hong to drink a pot, fortunately, the opponent's style of play also seems to be disorganized, purely hoping to steal chickens in the chaos.

Qi Wusheng, the head coach of the Chinese team, couldn't sit still at the moment, standing on the sidelines and shouting at the players on the field, and the two teams played English football with high aloft. The turning point appeared in the first half of the 27th minute, after the throw-in on the right side of the Chinese team was thrown, the opponent's back and Qi Hong collided together and fell to the ground, the ball leaked to Peng Weiguo's feet, the referee did not think that there was a foul on both sides, Peng Weiguo grabbed a central defender in Tajikistan when his left foot went over the top and passed behind the opponent's right back, Shen Si and the opponent's fullback started at the same time, and actually led nearly a position, although the attack was stopped by the opponent with a foul and a yellow card, But the Chinese team found a soft underbelly in Tajikistan. With an average height of 1.86 meters, the back line turns and speed is too slow. In the first 30 minutes or so of this game, the Chinese team encountered the same difficulties as the Vietnamese team, the opponent of the previous game of the tower team, our players were always destroyed by the opponent at the first time in the midfield, and it was difficult to organize a quick counterattack, so the opponent's weakness was never discovered.

The players on the field can keenly capture this, and it is impossible for the coaching staff not to see it, but there are no speed players in the national football squad this time, Yu Genwei is technical, Su Maozhen and Li Bing are two big centers, although the two are also very comprehensive, but don't think about speed. Although Lao Mao has also scored in the league with long-distance runs, it is not the norm and cannot be used as a weapon to defeat the enemy. Li Jinyu is first-class in front of the goal and shoots, but he is not a player with good speed. There is one Wang Peng left, and his skills, ball control, passing, and shooting skills can be called trustworthy, but don't think about the speed. For a while, Jin Zhiyang, the coach of the coaching staff, began to complain again, this time he didn't bring the peak, or even Yang Chen.

Just when the coaching staff was struggling with how to use substitutions to seize the opponent's weaknesses to score, the heart of a young player on the bench was about to jump out of his throat, and his mouth kept chanting: The fastest on earth is here! The fastest on earth is here! It just so happened that Li Boen's whispering made the team doctor hear, so the team doctor surnamed Wang walked up to Qi Wusheng and said: "Qi Zhi, you still need to think about the speed, we have a ready-made one here, not only is it fast, but it is also high and strong."

Following the gaze of Team Doctor Wang, Coach Qi finally remembered that there was still this person on the bench, the one who played in South America and did not forget DISS himself. Alas, forget it, national honor is above all else! The head coach waved his hand, replaced Su Maozhen, and let Li Bourne go! Ah no, on Lee Byrne.

So the teenager finally ushered in his first official match for the national team – 5:03 p.m. on May 11, 1997 in Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan – which was later called the day of the new king's debut by FIFA and major football media.

Before going on the field, the head coach pulled Li Bern to arrange the tasks after the game in detail, and finally in the dead ball time 1 minute later, the teenager replaced Lao Mao, and it was the striker position who started his senior national team career.

It's not that Tajikistan didn't study the last game of the Chinese men's football team, but because Li Boen did not have a record of the national team before, the other party simply did not think of paying attention to such a young player. Even if I was lucky enough to watch the match between South America and Yaqing last year, the teenager at that time had not yet practiced Scud, and it was useless to watch it! As a result, the home team was not mentally prepared to face the next blow from the start.

In the 37th minute of the first half, Fan Zhiyi made a successful steal in front of the penalty area, looked up, and didn't even consider passing to Peng Weiguo or Qi Hong. The Tajik team members still wondered, what the hell is this? Exhausted? You can't rest for two more minutes? But after only two seconds, they knew why the Chinese captain's central defenders were playing like that. Because the young striker who had just come on the field rushed up, from the middle circle arc position of the Chinese team's half to 30 meters away, it took less than 3 seconds! By the time the Tajikistan defenders came to their senses, Li Burn had changed direction and shook the opposing goalkeeper to score an empty goal, and the score finally changed to a 1:0 lead for the away team at this moment.

In the next game, the home team played extremely uncomfortable, but whenever you pressed out to play, as long as the Chinese team formed a steal, a big foot eight achievements is a single knife. It's not that there is a player with a 100-meter 9.28 seconds, and the opponent doesn't have to kick the ball, but the level of the tower team is not up to it, the midfield has no control, and it is more dependent on the body to create opportunities when it comes to the front, in other words, it depends on luck. So even though they were 1 goal behind, the home team didn't dare to press it anymore, which was terrifying! Anyway, we can't solve this problem, and we don't want to play the qualifiers, our Tajikistan men's football team is now waiting to see how you, Japan, South Korea, and Isha, the top Asian teams, solve the point of the Chinese men's football team Li Boen.

When the opponent made up his mind to put up a super iron bucket formation to defend the 0:1 score, the Chinese team really had no good way. Li Bourne was sure that as long as he could hit the ball within the goal frame, he would be able to score a point, but thinking of the top ten matches later, this killer weapon could be used against stronger opponents, the boy still resisted the idea of scoring from a long shot, and even deliberately kicked two feet away to show that he was not good at long-range shots.

In the end, the Chinese men's football team could only take away 3 points and the only goal difference from Dushanbe with regret, and Turkmenistan drew 2:2 at home against Vietnam in another game in the same group, and the Chinese team firmly occupied the top of the eighth group with 6 points and 7 goal difference in two games.

At the post-match press conference, Tajikistan's main central defender said indignantly in the face of many media: "The Chinese team should not choose this kind of sprinter to enter a football team, look at how bad the shot of the No. 31 player in the back is!" It was because of our lack of preparation and speed that we sneaked up on one of us, which caused us to lose this game! The Chinese team really doesn't talk about martial arts!"
