This training camp lasted until all the World Cup European qualifiers were over. Van Basten called up nearly 40 players. Li Ming's arrival was considered late. Most people had arrived yesterday or this morning.
On a huge blackboard, the current group rankings and venues were pinned. Li Ming took a closer look:
The current standings of the first group of the World Cup European qualifiers:
1. The Netherlands played 10 games, 9 wins, 1 draw, 0 losses, and 28 points
2. The Czech Republic played 10 games, 8 wins, 0 draws, 2 losses, and 24 points
3. Romania played 11 games, 8 wins, 0 draws, 3 losses, and 24 points
4. Finland played 10 games, 5 wins, 0 draws, 5 losses, and 15 points
5. Macedonia played 11 games, 2 wins, 2 draws, 7 losses, and 8 points
6. Armenia played 11 games, 2 wins, 1 draw, 8 losses, and 7 points
7. Andorra played 11 games, 0 wins, 2 draws, 9 losses, and 2 points
This is what Van Basten said to him last time. Although the Netherlands is 4 points ahead of the Czech Republic, he still hopes that after winning this game, he can advance to the World Cup in Germany next year one round earlier.
Schedule:
The matches to be played on October 8 are: Netherlands vs. Czech Republic, Romania vs. Finland. After this round of Romania, 12 matches will be played. Just wait and see.
The last round on October 12: Netherlands vs. Macedonia, Czech Republic vs. Finland, Andorra vs. Armenia.
At this time, the system also broadcasted: Attention, three new S-level (unseen in ten years) attackers have been detected! Li Ming quietly scanned the whole venue. Van Nistelrooy from Manchester United, Robben from Chelsea, and Van Persie from Arsenal were all in the venue. Makay, Kuyt, Huntelaar and Babel were all there.
Li Ming sighed in his heart. Although he missed the 2002 World Cup, the Dutch team was really aggressive this time.
On the stage, Van Basten was still talking about the purpose of this training camp, the situation of the World Cup qualifiers, and the discipline during the training camp.
A dark-skinned man next to Li Ming crossed his legs and knocked them high, looking very disdainful. This man was the Milan midfielder - Seedorf! He was shaking his legs and playing with his phone. Li Ming glanced at it and saw that it was a tennis game produced by Gameloft.
Seedorf glanced at Li Ming and recognized that this was the young goalkeeper Cruyff had personally recruited. Many newspapers at that time reported it with great effort and care.
Seedorf had been dissatisfied with Van Gaal, Van Basten and others in the past two years, as if his technical characteristics were not needed by the Dutch team at all. Since Hiddink replaced him in the 26th minute of the 1996 European Cup group stage, he had no position in the national team. Now the training camp is nothing more than a routine, and he will most likely not be selected for the World Cup next year.
Van Basten became more and more excited on the stage, and a domineering president's momentum emerged spontaneously. After he finished speaking, the four newcomers who were selected for the national team for the first time spoke.
Amid the whistles and applause of the bigwigs, Huntelaar from Eindhoven was the first to come on stage: "My dear seniors, I came here to score goals for the Netherlands. With me here, the quality of the young generation's striker line is guaranteed!"
Van Persie, who was born in 1983 like Huntelaar, was very upset. He thought to himself that I must be the leader of the young generation.
The second person to come on stage, Ron Vlaar, is a defender from Feyenoord. He seemed much more low-key: "I came here to learn. It is also a common practice for us Feyenoord to provide talents to the national team, hehe."
The third person to come on stage, Hedwigs Maduro, is from Ajax: "The national team based on our Ajax culture will achieve great success under the leadership of Mr. Van Basten, the representative of Ajax team history. As for me, I can play as a defender and a defensive midfielder. As long as the national team needs me, I can play any position."
The big guys in the audience held their breath, because this is the case in the Dutch team. The situation of Ajax, Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven dividing the world is history and the current situation, a balance and a struggle. Although there are occasionally clubs such as Alkmaar and Vitesse in China that stir up trouble from time to time, the overall situation has not changed for decades.
Today, the Jia family has a great advantage in the national team. The senior players Seedorf and Van der Sar, the future players Sneijder, Van der Vaart, Nigel de Jong, Heitinga, and the new faces Babel and Afellay who were just recruited to the national team for training this year are all from Ajax.
The three new players selected for the national team this time are from the three major local giants. Van Basten hopes to achieve both balance and unity. Unexpectedly, the traditional culture is really deeply rooted in the young generation.
The last person to speak on the stage was Li Ming. He remembered the knowledge that Bianchi had taught him.Unable to contain his excitement, he said, "Everyone, I am a newcomer. I will be the last barrier in front of your national team's goal in the future. Because of my presence, the veterans can focus more on the club."
This was said to Van der Sar, but unfortunately Van der Sar was not selected for this training camp due to injury.
"I was born in the East, where the civilization has a long history. When the ancestors there began to weave silk and drink tea, most of the ancestors here might still be on the trees. So, I don't care about the skin color of everyone in our team, or where the youth training comes from, as long as you have good character, my brother Ming can protect you."
Van Basten, the coaching staff, and the bigwigs in the audience were all stunned at this oriental face. The strong self-confidence exuded by Li Ming was like holy light, shining into the conference room, and the Dutch bigwigs became knights bathing in holy light.
"You can be happy secretly while I am here. A new chapter in Dutch football history will begin today. The shame of sinking in the World Cup qualifiers four years ago will be gone forever from today! Brother Ming, Victory!"
Li Ming on the stage was moved by his own shouting. The slightly older players such as Cocu, Van Nistelrooy, and Van Bommel clenched their fists tightly. The murderous intention to beat people was like burning incense, slowly penetrating into their minds, until the fragrance gradually settled and turned into peace. They almost had tears in their eyes. The shame of being suppressed by Portugal and Ireland in the World Cup qualifiers four years ago happened to them.
Babel, De Jong, Van Persie and other young people could not resist Li Ming's "holy light bath" and couldn't help but applaud!
Li Ming returned to the stage, and Seedorf beside him also put down his phone and lowered his voice: "Young man, you are really good. In such a moment, I feel that there is no discrimination chain in our team. I even feel more peaceful than when Kluivert, Davis and others were still there."
Li Ming knew that Seedorf was talking about the care between the Surinamese friends in the past: "Don't worry, many problems are because there are too few honors. If we win one or two top trophies, everyone will have a sense of honor and a core consciousness, and there will be no problems."
Seedorf's eyes were wide open: "It would be great to win a trophy. You see how easy you say it. By the way, even after winning the trophy, what is the core consciousness?"
"This question is more difficult to answer. For example, it is not impossible for the Dutch team to use me as the goalkeeper as the spiritual core in the future and respond to the call of hundreds of people."
"Hehe, if there is such a day, I must give you a Golden Ball Award!" Seedorf almost laughed out loud.
The last step is to assign dormitories. The Dutch team allows their wives and children to accompany them every time they go on a campaign, so the players who already have partners live with their wives or girlfriends. Single players can only share a standard room with two people. Li Ming and Nigel de Jong were assigned to the same dormitory.
