Chapter 743 It's time
During the time Liu Feng was paying attention, although the Chinese team still recruited several European players to fight, the performance of the two young players except Wu Lei was very average due to the long journey.
This made the team lose very simply when facing Japan and Australia, which are recognized as the strongest in the group. Zheng Zhi, who is responsible for organizing and delivering balls in the midfield, was alone, which led to Wu Lei rarely getting opportunities.
Li Peng also had emails with Liu Feng during this national team match day. He once again received an invitation from the Football Association, which has now completely changed its dynasty, hoping that Liu Feng could put aside his past grudges and return to the national team.
"Xiao Feng, there is no problem with this environment now. We are about to play in the fifth round of the group stage. The team's promotion is not optimistic. If you want to play in the 2014 World Cup, you can now consider officially joining."
Even in Brazil, he was taught by his father that he must not forget that he is a Chinese Liu Feng, who is sad about his misfortune and angry at him but bravely stood up to change something, and he was not blindly disgusted with the existence of the national team.
After all, it was not a very distant thing for them to enter the World Cup in 2002. The grand occasion of watching the Chinese team's matches together during the national holiday that summer is still watching.
Now, ten years have passed, the young player who once watched the game nervously with his father in front of TV has become the world's number one player, and the inspirational Li Peng, who is engaged in the football industry, has also owned his own career.
Therefore, after receiving the invitation from the Football Association, they have rejected the black environment that was once countless times and have been shaken.
"Brother Peng, I understand. I will communicate with Lei Zi about the current situation in the team. If there is no problem, we can hold a press conference in advance on the next national team match day."
"Okay! Xiaofeng, are you agreeing? Hahaha, there is really hope now."
With a total of ten rounds in the group, the Chinese team's current points and rankings are not without hope. After all, there are still 12 points to be won in addition to this round of games. In Li Peng's opinion, as long as Liu Feng returns, no other opponent is worth mentioning.
Compared to Li Peng, Liu Feng's understanding as a professional player is naturally deeper. After all, he also watched the team's four top ten games from an scrutiny perspective.
There are still many players in the national team who have competed in Europe today. Wu Lei, Hao Junmin, Zheng Zhi, Zhang Yuning, Wei Shihao, Yang Xu and other players have all been recognized by some European clubs.
Some other players, Zhao Xuri, who played well in China, gave the men's football Olympic team the only assist to Dong Fangzhuo scored a historic goal, Chen Tao was very good.
Of course, the good one here refers to it in Asia.
Even on the back line, Asia's best defender Li Weifeng and the top Chinese football team Dewey, these two defenders are not young, but have had experience in participating in the last World Cup competition, which is extremely precious.
From this point of view, the team's strength is actually quite good. Facing Iraq and Oman, these players did perform well, drew with Iraq and easily defeated Oman to score four points.
However, in the matches against Japan and Australia, it is difficult for Zheng Zhi, Hao Junmin, and another offensive midfielder Huang Bowen to frequently send threatening balls against the opponent's top midfielder.
This directly led to several forwards on the Chinese team's forward line waiting for the ball, and also seizing the pitiful opportunity under the opponent's tight defense.
Even so, Wu Lei scored a goal in the team's game against Japan. In the game against Australia, young player Zhang Yuning defeated his opponent's high school defender in the penalty area and scored a header.
This made Liu Feng realize that the team's forward line is actually enough to play in the top ten games. What the Chinese team now needs is a commander who can command and dispatch in the middle. With such a midfield core, there is really hope of winning against the double-strong team.
"So, am I going to start practicing midfield life~"
Thinking of this, during this week, Liu Feng began to appear frequently in the team's midfield training circle in Arsenal's training base.
Wenger lets it go after having a conversation with him. After all, in these two seasons, the team has relied on pulling Liu Feng back to win a surprise victory.
Finally, on this national team match day, the Chinese team played against Iraq. With Kamacho's control formation of 442, the team pulled the opponent for nearly 80 minutes.
It was not until the 80th minute of the game that Hao Junmin made a cross from the right, Zhang Yuning headed the ball back in front of the penalty area, and Zheng Zhi shot a long shot through the opponent's goal, and the balance of the game was broken.
For the rest of the time, Iraq's desperate attack and Chinese team's desperate defense became the main theme, but with the sound of the final whistle, the score was still frozen at 1-0.
Liu Feng, who watched this game, couldn't help but feel worried about the team. After the game, he watched the team still steadily occupy the third place, Liu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
He has had enough of this feeling of watching the Chinese red fighting on the court as an audience. In the next game, it is time to put on the national team's jersey.
At this moment, Liu Feng still didn't know how big a storm his choice would set off in the country.
After all, since the name of Super Maple sounded from Italy, countless fans have begun to look forward to the day when this super genius played for the country.
Unfortunately, the dark clouds at that time and the conflict between Liu Feng and Sun Shaobo and Director Gou made the fans' fantasies come true for a long time.
...
With the end of another national team match day, the players have returned to the club one after another. The team's new round of preparations has begun again. In the first week of the game day, they will have a one-week double game.
At that time, they will go away to Norwich, and then face the Bundesliga powerhouse Schalke 04 team who came to challenge at home.
After being destroyed by the FIFA virus, the strong team and the players participating in the national team competition were not in good condition. How to reasonably coordinate to deal with the next week's games has become a headache for the professor.
However, as players, there is not so much to worry about. When the whistle sounded on the first day after the training resumed, everyone continued to run towards the base with their heads down.
