Grassroots Glory

However, at the end of the first half, the score was only 1:0. Perhaps some spectators who have a mental inertia and do not know much about football. When they tuned to the sports channel, they would be surprised to see the score-Huh? The Chinese team could actually lead at halftime.

　　 But fans who have watched the game will think the opposite. The Chinese team did not get a bigger lead in the first half, but they would feel weird.

In the midfield comments, Liu Jianhong's point hit the key point: "The main difficulty faced by the Chinese team today is not the opponent, but the natural factors. The rainy ball is very irregular on the turf. Such weather is obviously very different. It is conducive to the team's implementation of high-guided ground propulsion, and the opponent's physical fitness in the first half is full of concentration. It is normal for the Chinese team to encounter resistance."

　　 It sounds like the Chinese team's past half-time rhetoric, but no one feels wrong when saying the same thing at this time, because the statement is fact. And Liu Jianhong also mentioned a point. Throughout the world football, the strong and weak games often have more goals in the second half. When the strong teams start to pressurize and the weak teams can not keep up, the defense loopholes start. It gradually appeared.

But in the locker room, Gao Hongbo was picky about the performance of the first half: "The weather is really bad today, I understand everyone's difficulty, but when you shoot, you can still be more stable, see Zhou Tiancheng tells you so Many chances, you are wasted one by one, are you worthy of him?"

Gao Hongbo pointed out his dissatisfaction. Perhaps in the face of the reporter, he can only look at the result, 1:0 at halftime, as long as he can win, but he can’t tell the players “whatever you can win, how can you win?” It doesn't matter if you play," this is not the attitude of a national team coach. And the biggest role of opponents at this level in Lebanon is to allow the Chinese team to check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps. The goal to challenge is not them.

The progress of the second half was basically similar to Liu Jianhong's prediction at halftime. The Chinese team continued to accelerate the attack as soon as they came up, and when the game reached 60 minutes, the rain on the spot was less, and at this time, the Chinese team again Expanded the leading edge.

The Bundesliga trident in the frontcourt played an offensive fit. Zhou Tiancheng's diagonal pass directly over the head of Lebanon's right back, and reached the foot of Chen Pengfei accurately. The latter took the ball and observed the situation of the middle road. Scanning, Jiang Hao was cautiously plugged into the front of the door, and the Lebanese central defender's pull only pulled down the center of gravity, but he had dealt with the Bundesliga defender's pull, and he fought against a first-class defender like De Mikelis. Jiang Hao couldn't be beaten at all. He poke gently in front of the door and directly poke the ball into the dead end.

　　 The whistle of the UAE chief referee was in his mouth. He had planned to take a penalty, but when he saw the goal, he was stunned, and then his hands were pointed at the middle circle to signal a kick-off.

　　 At this time Jiang Hao had already started to celebrate the goal, his national team's first goal.

Jiang Hao’s celebration is very newsworthy for reporters. He ran to the front of the media table, lowered his head and kissed the team logo on his chest. This was his whimsical celebration. This attendance rate, even if he came This **** celebration has no commemorative meaning. However, such a move is made. It is estimated that after the game, the media will write a positive energy title such as "The Bundesliga Nova Hearts National Team, Beheading the Ball and Realizing the Dream", which will raise Jiang Hao's public image.

　　 After taking the lead, the Chinese team took the victory and chased. In the 72nd minute, Qu Bo came off the bench to score the third goal for the Chinese team. He and the opposing center defender Kohani competed to score the goal. However, the UAE referee did not immediately judge the goal to be effective, because during the battle between the two sides, the ball seemed to hit the other party and rebounded on the Qupo arm. After several minutes of consultation with the assistant referee, the goal was finally determined to be valid. Because of this penalty, the subsequent stoppage time was up to ten and twenty-five seconds, which was the longest stoppage time record in the national team's official game.

　　 But in this super long stoppage time, no fans would worry about a sudden "black minutes", Lebanon has no fighting spirit, and even the forced move is too lazy to do. Liu Jianhong commented with a rare tone: "This is the common problem of the West Asian team. It is crazy to prevent it, but it is also very easy to crash. West Asia’s away game has always been a nightmare for the Chinese team, but I hope that the Chinese team can learn from this game. Drawing on some experience, Gao Guiren abandoned today's tactics of anti-counterfeiting on the road, and this is the greatest trick."

For a long time, the Chinese team appeared to lack confidence in coping with international competitions, occupying the right place at the home and harmonious, are firmly based on anti-reaction, and went on the road, leaving the familiar environment and the support of fans, anti-reaction It's almost impossible to talk about-the whole game is almost defensive, and there is no counterattack at all.

　　 And at least today, everyone saw a national team with offensive courage. Such a team, no matter whether it wins or loses, is at least worthy of everyone's love. No fan wants his national team to be played on the court, especially Chinese fans who have the feeling of a big country. The comments on the domestic network can also be seen.

　　 "For many years, I finally watched the National Football Team play a decent game. As a result, I thought that Zhou Tiancheng would win most of them, but I didn't expect to win such a strong position."

　　 "If the opposite side can still win like Iran, I will be satisfied."

　　 "That's right! This is like a big country, what kind of **** I played before."

　　 "Jiang Hao and Chen Pengfei can't see the feeling of being against Tianqiang in the Bundesliga...at least not as good as Zhou Tiancheng, but coming to the Asian stadium is totally abusive!"

　　 "Wait for the duel between Japan and South Korea!"

　　 A hearty victory, after seeing this performance, the question about why Gao Hongbo did not call into Mingtao gradually became smaller. There were indeed such questions raised by the media before, and they all called three people. Why not gather four stars in the Bundesliga?

　　Does it seem to Gao Hongbo that Ming Tao is not qualified for the national team?

Obviously not. It turns out that at least this international competition day is not necessary. Throughout the game, Chinese goalkeeper Yang Zhi spent most of his time solitary under the goal to avoid rain, and he was barely threatened. At this time, everyone remembered Gao Hongbo’s answer a few days ago: "Ming Tao has just played the main role, the coaching staff. With full consideration, I decided to observe him for a while. The current three goalkeepers on the team are enough to ensure that we win the game."

　　 Of course, the game won smoothly and profitably, Gao Hongbo's statement before the game will be praised as a wise decision-maker.

　　The next day the whole team returned from Beirut to the country, and the second game back-to-back with Lebanon will be played at Hangzhou Huanglong Sports Center.

At Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, there are still hundreds of fans holding banners to welcome the triumph of the national team. Zhou Tiancheng is naturally the most popular player in the team. In addition, Jiang Hao, who scored the first goal for the national team, is also a fan. People who have requested signatures. From the head-to-head game against Bayern against Demichelis to complete the lore, Jiang Hao has a large number of Schalke fans in the country, and even Dortmund fans.

　　 Seeing this scene, Zhou Tiancheng felt some emotions. Last summer, he once saw a college entrance examination composition on a domestic website, who is the most lovely person. With the Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan as the background, the author praised the people’s police, teachers, and PLA soldiers who came to the rescue in the face of disaster. In fact, Zhou Tiancheng always felt that the group of "loveliest people" must be counted as Chinese fans. .

　　 Even though "the national football has abused me thousands of times", it can still be "I treat the national football as first love", of course not everyone has this kind of infatuation, but now those who can stand here must be the most infatuated followers.

　　 The Chinese team, which had been useless before, can still receive cheers during the game, thanks to these cutest people.

　　Zhou Tiancheng listened to the fans' various praises, but his thoughts were more firm. We must really give everyone a surprise, for these fans.

　　'S immediate victory is far from enough.

　　……

　　 and Lebanon's second game will have to wait until a week later, the AFC qualifier schedule is very loose. During this period, he received a call from Roca to inform him that the negotiations with Sina Weibo's business endorsement had been basically finalized. The next step was to contact him once.

　　Zhou Tiancheng didn't expect that Loka would contact himself at this time, and then there was a match that decided that the Chinese team would qualify from the group in advance. It is absolutely impossible for him to take leave from Hangzhou to Sina Beijing headquarters to sign the contract.

　　Luoca said that he would explain the situation. As a result, he called again the next afternoon. Sina's signing representative had already come to Hangzhou, hoping to meet Zhou Tiancheng as soon as possible.

　　Zhou Tiancheng could feel the sincerity of the other party, he was also very moved, but he really did not have time.

　　 "Peter, can you tell them to wait for me to finish the next game... Uh, although it doesn't sound very good, the national team's daily training is indeed tight."

"I'm afraid it won't work. Zhou, I can see that they are really sincere, but they are also very confident, which means that this endorsement is not necessary for you. Of course you can refuse, but if you let the outside world know that you have ruined this way After signing the contract, there may be fewer people who may be willing to speak to us in the future. I make money on you, so please don’t smash my rice bowl. Week, it only takes half a day. They only want to see you once. surface."

　　 put down the phone, Zhou Tiancheng thought about it, he still decided to ask Gao Hongbo for leave.

As for the reason to use it, Zhou Tiancheng is naturally unable to tell the truth. He knows that the national team is very taboo. The core players of the national team, during the call for the game, take leave to talk about endorsements and fishing for money. Equivalent to self-finding.

　　 He lied and found a reason that seemed reasonable: his parents came to see him.

　　The coaching staff is not sure about Zhou Tiancheng's family situation. He thinks that his parents are all working in the country, the children work alone abroad, and it is really not easy for the family to gather together. After discussing this situation with the team leader Liu Dianqiu, Gao Hongbo agreed to take Zhou Tiancheng half a day off without having to participate in the afternoon training.

　　Zhou Tiancheng said the location of the hotel where the team stayed. Roca arranged to meet at a cafe less than one kilometer away.

　　Zhou Tiancheng arrived and saw a middle-aged man sitting in a suit and leather shoes with Loka.

　　 However, as soon as this person introduced himself, Zhou Tiancheng was still taken aback, sitting across from him was actually the CEO of Sina, Cao Wei.

　　 "Mr. Zhou, what we agreed with your agent Mr. Loka before, what do you think?"

　　Cao Wei mainly refers to the issue of endorsement fees. The price tag offered by Sina is 8 million yuan a year. In fact, the original price tag was 5 million yuan, but then it broke the explosive news that Zhou Tiancheng won the European Golden Boy. Loka doubled immediately and asked for a thousand Million. Because he is very clear, Zhou Tiancheng has also been a label person since then. Why can Ronaldo and Messi get tens of millions of euros in endorsement fees at Adi and Nike? The Golden Globe and Champions League championships are the two most conspicuous labels, representing that they are the best football players on the planet today. When Zhou Tiancheng got the golden boy, Roca was full of confidence. According to his development potential, he also hoped to get a golden ball in the future, so his endorsement, don't want to take down 5 million yuan.

　　After consideration, Sina bargained to 8 million yuan, but promised to increase the endorsement period of one year.

Zhou Tiancheng smiled and answered: "Mr. Cao, to tell you the truth, I am willing to sit here and talk to you, mainly because I think about the potential of your Weibo software~www.wuxiaspot.com~ According to my understanding, this and Is it the same as the twitter used by foreigners?"

Cao Wei nodded with a smile: "Mr. Zhou deserves to be a young man. He sees the problem at a glance. But our Weibo and Twitter are still somewhat different and more interactive. Twitter can have such a strong promotion force in European and American countries. The population of China is more than double that of the whole of Europe. The number of young people of your age is about the same as the population of Europe. This is why we chose you to speak for you. I am afraid there are no young people after 1980 Who is more famous than Mr. Zhou."

　　 This is also the truth. Most people of similar age to Zhou Tiancheng are studying in college, either working or starting a business. Those who can achieve this level of global visibility are afraid that the whole of China can count it with one hand.

　　 So Cao Wei was very polite and his attitude was very calm. He didn't sing Zhou Tiancheng too deliberately. Instead, he discussed the characteristics and advantages of Weibo.

　　 The two parties had a very pleasant conversation. Cao Wei was obviously prepared. After seeing Zhou Tiancheng without any objections, he proposed to wait two days for him to let the signing team come and the two sides formally signed the contract.

　　 "Mr. Zhou, I believe this is a win-win option. Haha!"

　　 "It seems to be more beneficial to your group, how to say a win-win situation?"

　　 Cao Wei smiled twice: "I promise, this is your most popular contract. After all, we are China's number one portal."

　　 "I hope so." Zhou Tiancheng's heart ha ha, China's first portal?

　　 But he didn't want to control how much water the opponent had, and he finalized this matter. He continued to invest in the training of the national team to do what a professional player should do.
