(4725) Chapter 71 Return to Barcelona

The match against Liverpool Youth Team is the last stop for Chinese football teenagers in the UK.

In the UK, they achieved excellent results, with two wins, one draw and one loss in four games.

"The Heirs of Green Field" has also attracted much attention in China because of their outstanding performance, and its ratings have begun to rise.

In fact, 2008 was the dark year of Chinese football.

The Chinese national team was just eliminated in the Asian Cup group stage last year, which became a shameful Asian Cup.

In order to prepare for the Olympic Games held at home this year, the Football Association specially formulated a national Olympic strategy and sent the team to Germany for training, with the German coach leading the team to play. This national Olympic team was also the team of the national youth teams that performed well in the Netherlands World Youth Championship in 2005, and was highly expected.

For the Olympics, the Football Association even sacrificed its national team's qualifiers for the South African World Cup. It seems that in their eyes, the World Cup is far less important than the Olympics they host - it is indeed the case. In terms of political significance, the Beijing Olympics is indeed greater than the South African World Cup.

So many things have been sacrificed to ensure that the national Olympic team can achieve a good result in the Olympics.

As a result, at the Beijing Olympics, the national Olympic team played all three games and was eliminated at the bottom of the group.

What is even more dissatisfied with being eliminated is the team's performance in the game, especially in the game against Belgium, where the Chinese team lost the game and lost.

The disappointing performance of Chinese football has spawned many jokes during the Olympics. The intoxicating chapters are a new story

For example, Messi returned to the team after participating in the Beijing Olympics to show his teammates the latest cheering slogan he learned in China: "The Football Association is stupid!"

The Olympics were eliminated and the World Cup qualifiers were eliminated. Chinese football players seemed to have reached the end of their journey. For a long time in the future, the World Football Competition would have nothing to do with Chinese football.

It is precisely in this context that "The Heir of Green Land" has set out in a high-profile battle, and it is no wonder that it has attracted so many people's attention and criticism.

In fact, the program "The Heir of Green Field" was launched very early. At that time, neither the Chinese national team nor the Chinese national Olympic team had yet to fail in their respective fields.

They may be planning to use the gimmick of the National Olympic Team participating in the Beijing Olympics to fuel their programs.

I didn’t expect that when the program officially starts recording, the overall environment of Chinese football will turn sharply.

In this situation, the sixteen football boys, including Zhou Yi, seemed to be taking the blame for the entire Chinese football.

Fans and pseudo-fans vented their disappointment and anger with Chinese football, and even the dissatisfaction in life, on this group of innocent children.

This sentiment reached its peak after the team lost 0:12 to Lamacia Youth Team in the first game.

But the team showed their unique side in a very difficult environment - they were not knocked out by yelling and pressure.

From the start of the game against Dortmund youth team, they gradually found the right path.

Only then did the audience realize that these children were different from the Chinese players they thought. They did not completely collapse due to continuous failures. On the contrary, they broke through the siege!

Everyone has seen the performance of the four games in the UK, and their progress is very obvious.

It was a perfect end to finally ending the journey to Britain with a victory.

The performance of the young players improved, and the ratings of the program increased, which fully demonstrated that in China, football has a great influence. However, in the past, this influence was negative due to various reasons...

Now, there are finally some positive factors.

※※※

With the expectations of domestic spectators and fans, the Chinese teenagers bid farewell to Liverpool and flew from John Lennon Airport to Milan, Italy.

There is only one city in Italy, with two games against the youth teams of the two giants in Milan City.

AC Milan Youth Team and Inter Milan Youth Team.

Because they have achieved good results in the UK, Chinese football teenagers are very confident, and they don’t care about the declining Serie A club youth team.

But the actual situation is indeed...

They lost to the youth teams of AC Milan and Inter Milan.

Not only did they lose the score, but they were also suppressed by the youth teams of two Serie A giants.

Such ups and downs are quite consistent with the characteristics of the youth team's game, but why does this behave?

It is unconvincing to blame the instability of young players' status simply on the instability of their own players.

There are also many posts discussing the performance of Chinese teenagers on the Internet.

Some opinions are still very sharp.

For example, a netizen named "Linhainnion Man" wrote an article on the post bar of "The Heir of Green Field" to discuss the importance of Zhou Yi to this team.

In the article, the reason why the Chinese team lost both games and performed averagely is that Zhou Yi was highly restrained by the Italian team's tactics.

He analyzed why the Chinese team had such completely different performances when they played against England and Italy.

He believes that this is related to the fact that the English team's youth training focuses more on physical training, rough skills and backward tactical awareness. The only English team that Chinese teenagers lost to is the Arsenal youth team, and the Chacha Arsenal's youth training philosophy is different from the last three.

The Chinese teenagers who have advantages in technology and tactics defeat the English youth team with rough skills and backward tactical concepts.

But it’s different after arriving in Italy. Italian players have been instilled with various tactics since childhood, and their understanding of tactics is very high. In this regard, the Chinese team cannot play with the Italians. In addition, the Italian team’s natural defensive skills bonus, it is natural that the Chinese team cannot chew these two hard bones.

As for some people saying that the Serie A has declined, Chinese teenagers should be able to defeat them, and the netizen "Linhai Birdman" also expressed his objection.

He believes that the level of the Serie A is that of the Serie A, which cannot be simply equated with the level of Italian youth training.

The Premier League has always been the best football league in Europe, but their youth training level is not satisfactory.

In addition, although the Bundesliga seems to be like Serie A, almost no one cares about it, the youth training level of German football is really high. He also boldly predicted that the German national team will definitely be able to regain the international championship in less than ten years, either the World Cup or the European Cup.

※※※

I lost two games in a row, and I lost two games after performing well before, which is really depressing.

But what makes the Chinese young players even more depressed is that in this situation, they have returned to Barcelona, ​​which is their sad place.

According to the arrangements of the program "The Heir of Green Land", the European Challenge Tour is a circle, starting from Barcelona and ending in Barcelona.

Barcelona's youth team is the only team they have to face twice.

This arrangement shows the program team's attention and affirmation of Barcelona's youth training.

Of course, this is also in line with the theme of their program that focuses on the cultivation of youth football talents.

Stepping into this land again made everyone sigh.

When they first came to Barcelona, ​​their hearts were filled with longing for La Macia. In their minds, Barcelona is simply the holy city of football. There are the best football clubs in the world, the best stars, and the best youth training system in the world.

But after a game, the Holy City was still the same holy city, but in the minds of Chinese teenagers, the admiration was much less, and it was replaced by pain.

They lost twelve goals in one game, and they walked around Europe. This was the worst loss and the only game that lost the goal in double-digit games.

All of them were given to them by Barcelona's youth team.

Even if they have defeated Chelsea youth team, Liverpool youth team, and tied Manchester United youth team, they cannot offset the pain that Barcelona youth team has brought to them.

When the plane arrived at Barcelona Airport, the young players were generally silent. The city reminded them of the sad past two months ago.

After the plane stopped and the hatch opened, the young players silently packed their luggage and followed the flow of people to move towards the hatch.

When I think about facing Barcelona Youth Team again in another week... many people are still a little frightened.

Especially after two consecutive defeats in Italy just now, this fear mixed with disconfidence gives people a greater feeling.

But there are still some exceptions.

Zhou Yi carried his schoolbag and left the cabin, stood on the gangway, looked at the busy Barcelona airport, and suddenly shouted: "Barcelona! I, Hu Hansan, are back again!!"

This scream scared Liang Qiqi, who was walking on the gangway in front of him, and almost stepped on the air and fell off the gangway. Fortunately, his hand grabbed the handrail in time, but he couldn't care about the bag he carried anymore. He rolled on the gangway and fell to the ground, attracting many people's attention.

He didn't care about how his bag was going, but turned back to look at Zhou Yi with anger, but Zhou Yi didn't notice him at all. He was fighting with Sun Pan.

"What the hell is called? My legs were almost frightened by you!" Sun Pan complained.

"Are you scared by me or by the name Barcelona?" Zhou Yi asked back.

"Of course it's you!"

"hehe."

"No hehe!"

“It’s delicious.”

"Drink water when you are thirsty!"

"Sun Pan, Zhou Yi said that he had taken apart Hehe..." Yang Muge reminded his roommate.

Sun Pan was stunned when he heard Yang Muge's words, as if he was hit by a magical stalker there, thinking what this means.

Zhou Yi sighed when he saw Sun Pan's death: "Sun Pan, I don't believe you after you finished the nine-year compulsory education. Your resume is fake, right?"

The teammates watching the fun next to him laughed when they saw this scene.

The depressing and dull atmosphere before was swept away.

Of course, as for Liang Qiqi and his bag, it seems that they have been completely forgotten...
