There is a dream called football

German coach Krauchen is currently the coach of the National Youth Team. He has been very busy recently because he has to prepare for the World Youth Championship in the Netherlands.

For the World Youth Championship, Krauchen's goal is to qualify from the group, but this is not easy. After all, the Chinese team's opponents are Ukraine, Turkey and Panama.

In his roster, several positions have been fixed, such as defense Feng Xiaoting, midfielder Chen Tao, and forward Gao Lin.

However, there are still a few seats that are difficult to determine. For example, can Li Qiao and Lei Wen participate in the competition?

Their ages are completely consistent, but I don't know if the club will release them, and players of this level may be busy with transfers in the summer, which makes it a bit difficult for Krauchen to handle.

After all, the Football Association said that Li Qiao was preparing for the 2008 Olympics, and the World Youth Championship is still secondary compared to the local Olympics. In addition, Li Qiao also needs to contribute to the World Cup, so it is inevitable that everyone will compete with each other.

However, one thing that European coaches are very good about is that they fully respect the players' own opinions. Whether they want to participate in the game or not, they still have to talk to the players themselves.

It was early in the morning when Li Qiao received the call, and Crouchen couldn't help it. He was busy during the day and only remembered it at night.

Li Qiao didn't know who Krauchen was for a while, because in his previous life, he knew that the Chinese National Youth Team had a great victory in 2005, but he really didn't know who the head coach of that year was.

"I am the head coach of the Chinese National Youth Team."

National youth team?

But Li Qiao remembered that the National Youth League also has various echelons, so which echelon is it?

Suddenly Li Qiao remembered something, "Are you going to lead a team to the Netherlands?"

"Yes, we are going to the Netherlands to play in the World Youth Championship."

Li Qiao suddenly jumped up from the bed. In his previous life, many people liked the national football team probably because of the 2005 World Youth Championship in the Netherlands. Those games were soul-stirring and really exciting.

"Do you know me?" Krauchen smiled.

"Yes, I know you, you will succeed."

"Thank you, I called you to ask you a few things."

"What?"

"Would you like to participate in the World Youth Championship?"

"..."

"Of course I do."

Krauchen never dreamed that Li Qiao would agree so readily, which was unexpected.

"Haha, don't you think about it? It will probably delay your game next season. You are the main force in the European League."

"It's okay, I have to attend even if I'm delayed."

Krauchen really did not expect such a result. Could it be that the Chinese are more patriotic?

This is just one aspect. On the other hand, this World Youth Championship is very important. Later, many big names in football emerged from this World Youth Championship, such as the well-known Messi.

Li Qiao must attend such a grand event, but Krauchen has more on his mind, "Next year is the World Cup. I think you still need to communicate with the club. Of course I hope you will participate, but I also know that this is not possible."

easy."

Li Qiao nodded. This is true. Under normal circumstances, clubs will not let go of unimportant games.

Later, Son Heung-min had many opportunities to be exempted from military service, but the club would not let him go in competitions such as the Asian Games. In the end, if there was no other way, Tottenham would not let him go to compete in Asian games.

"Okay, I'll talk to the club."

But when Benitez heard that Li Qiao was going to participate in the World Youth Championship, he was delighted.

"Li Qiao, I advise you to forget about the World Youth Championship. You are already a player at a higher level. You don't need the World Youth Championship. It is for players who are not yet famous."

This is indeed the case. Many young people became famous in the World Youth Championship. This is a springboard. But for Li Qiao, who has already played in the Premier League, it seems that he does not need such a springboard. It is a waste of time.

But Li Qiao had his own reasons. He wanted to participate in the 2005 World Youth Championship so much that he even dreamed of it.

"Boss, I must participate in the World Youth Championship. I am very determined."

Benitez didn't understand, "Why, give me a reason."

"There is no reason, I just want to play for the national team."

"But next year is the World Cup, so that's a better opportunity."

Li Qiao didn't know what to say, "Raphael, I hope you understand me, I must participate."

Benitez was silent because he didn't understand the meaning of Li Qiao's insistence. It was like Andy Lau still playing small roles after becoming famous. What's the meaning?

"I can't promise you now. I have to be busy with the Champions League. We'll talk about it later."

"good."

Li Qiao was very persistent, but he couldn't mess around. The game against Chelsea was very important, and of course he couldn't interfere with the head coach's preparation for the game.

After Li Qiao left, Benitez was still wondering, this is really strange, this kid Li Qiao.

But after thinking about it, he understood. If it wasn't strange, could he still be called Li Qiao?

****

Raven called.

"Li Qiao, an old man named Krauchen called me."

"Haha, you called me too."

"Haha, I am a little hesitant about the World Youth Championship. Logically speaking, we should compete for the country, but this is not a competition year, and summer is still very important to us."

Many people mistakenly believe that since the European League starts in August, players will return to the team in August, but this is not the case.

Many teams prepare at least half a month in advance. It is very important to practice and break in before the game. Even if the pre-game preparation is not good, many people will be reimbursed for the season. After all, the coach will only use the players who are in the best condition.

.

Li Qiao knew very well what Raven was thinking. He wanted to go to the five major leagues, so summer was too important.

On the other hand, the national team's affairs are also very important. No matter how the national football team is doing, anyone who says they don't want to join the national team is lying. People always have a sense of honor.

"Li Qiao, what do you think?"

Li Qiao chuckled, "Lei Wen, I think you should join the national team."

"Why?"

Because Li Qiao knew that he would perform well in the National Youth Championship, and the World Youth Championship would gather many of the world's top scouts.

In other words, this is an opportunity to become famous, and Messi started to be known from this World Youth Championship.

"Leaven, think about it, there are many scouts attending the World Youth Championship. As long as you perform well, it will be easier to transfer."

The words awakened the dreamer. Four years ago, Argentina's Saviola became famous in the World Youth Championship. This is a stage for young people to make a name for themselves.

"How could I forget this? Thank you for reminding me."

Raven has decided that he must participate in the World Youth Championship. Maybe he will be the Saviola of the new era and become famous in one battle.

"Then I promised the old German man to go to the World Youth Championship."

Li Qiao chuckled, "Don't worry, listen to me, that's right."
