There is a dream called football

There are not many media outlets outside the hotel and training camp where the Chinese team is staying. They are mainly from two countries, one is China and the other is the British media, and the target of the British media is of course Li Qiao.

It is said that Chelsea is preparing to spend a lot of money to buy Li Qiao, and the deal will be officially announced after the World Youth Championship.

The main media in China is CCTV5, which will broadcast the entire World Youth Championship.

That afternoon, CCTV got the opportunity to interview the national team players and coaches, and Li Qiao certainly did his part.

Huang Jianxiang sat across from him. Li Qiao's growth rate exceeded his expectations. He thought Li Qiao was very good, but he didn't expect that Li Qiao could become a star.

"You should recognize me."

"Of course, I grew up watching you commentate on games when I was a kid."

"Haha, isn't it Han Qiaosheng?"

"Haha, Teacher Han just made a cameo."

Back to business.

"How does it feel to come to the national team? You have gone through a difficult season. The fans have no doubt about your level, but your physical fitness will be a test."

No player is ironclad, and Li Qiao's physical condition is indeed what fans are most worried about.

"I will be a little tired, but since I'm here, I will go all out. This is the quality of a professional player. If my physical fitness is not good, then I would rather not play."

"Um."

"How are you adapting to your teammates? Krauchen is very defensive about the media. Even the Chinese media can't capture anything tactical."

"Haha, I can only say that this national team is great. I have adapted well. Of course, I am definitely a lot more unfamiliar than Liverpool."

"Where did Krauchen put you?"

"Any position is fine. The head coach gives me a lot of freedom, but I still like to move on the right side."

The first game is Turkey. Regarding the opponent, we know the adult team very well. It is a very tough team, but we know very little about the youth team. Have you done any data collection?

"I can watch some videos, but not much. There aren't many things that the youth team can collect, so I'll be the main one."

After talking about the national team, Huang Jianxiang also started gossiping, "Did you know? There is a lot of news about your transfer outside, and there are all kinds of rumors."

Li Qiao laughed, "I can only tell you that these rumors are false. I am still a player of Liverpool, and when I am in the national team, I will not pay attention to the club's affairs."

"There are three opponents in the group stage. Which opponent do you think is the most difficult to deal with?"

"Türkiye and Ukraine are both troublesome opponents for us, and Panama will be relatively relaxed."

"The domestic expectation for the national football team is to qualify second in the group."

Li Qiao nodded, "As long as we qualify in the group stage, the rest doesn't matter, because for us, the knockout round is the beginning of the game."

"So confident?"

"Of course, I think we should also have such confidence."

"hehe."

*****

The Chinese team's first match against Turkey is in Utrecht. There will be almost 10,000 people attending the game, of which about 2,000 are Chinese fans and the rest are local fans and Turkish fans.

Because Turkey is relatively close, it is estimated that a large number of Turkish fans will come to watch the game. It can be said that the Chinese team has no advantage in terms of fan lineup.

The bus departs from Amsterdam. The Netherlands is very small, so you can just take the bus, and it only takes an hour to get to Utrecht.

So this time the Chinese team’s base is arranged in Amsterdam, and you can just take the bus there during the game.

Outside the window, the Dutch countryside is quiet and peaceful. Many players are listening to music with headphones, and some are playing games. Li Qiao is quietly watching the scenery.

"It would be great if I had a smartphone. I could take pictures of such beautiful scenery and show them to Lorinda and my mother back home."

Next to him is Lei Wen, who is texting with his girlfriend. Li Qiao is not used to using this kind of keyboard phone. People who have used 6-inch large-screen phones really can’t go back to this small screen of less than 2 inches.

Already.

"Raven, are you and your girlfriend okay?"

"Great."

"Do your parents know?"

"Now that I know everything, I was worried about their nagging, but I didn't expect to be very satisfied."

"Um."

"Are you still at Porto next season?"

"I don't know. Let's see if Uncle Sosa can contact a better one and see the price."

"As for you, there are many rumors about you."

Li Qiao chuckled, "I don't know anything at the moment either."

However, Li Qiao knew that Liverpool would encounter financial difficulties in the next few years, mainly due to the unreliability of the two American owners. This was also the most difficult period for Liverpool. Two Americans who did not understand football almost brought down this century-old giant.

Already.

Therefore, Li Qiao does not want to live in Liverpool forever. After all, Liverpool will become strong again after Uncle Zha comes. That will be 10 years later, and all the outstanding players have retired.

Gerrard could stay with Liverpool for ten years, but he couldn't, and he didn't have the genes of Liverpool, so Li Qiao felt quite conflicted.

"If there is a good offer, I think anything is possible."

Raven nodded.

At this moment, a head came over from behind and said, "Can you recommend me? I also want to study abroad."

It turned out that Gao Lin in the back row had been eavesdropping.

This sudden move frightened both Raven and Li Qiao.

"I'll kill you, Gao Lin, he's scary, he's scary to death."

"Haha, I'm sorry, you spoke too loudly, I heard you."

"Which team do you want to go to?"

Gao Lin thought for a while and said, "Liverpool, I like Liverpool the most."

sweat.

How dare you think about it.

"Li Qiao, give me a recommendation. You are very popular in Liverpool now, so you said there is a good Chinese boy who can come to Liverpool for a trial. I think at my level, as long as I have a trial, the second team will be fine.

"

Li Qiao wanted to agree first and not to dampen Gao Lin's enthusiasm, lest he was not in good form during the World Youth Championship. Besides, as long as he was in good form at the World Youth Championship, scouts would come to visit him without having to say anything.

.

When we arrived at the Utrecht Stadium, the fans were already singing. They were mainly Turkish fans. Their stadium culture is the same as that in Europe. They sang and danced non-stop for 90 minutes. However, the Chinese fans were more civilized and just shouted

Shout slogans.

When the players came on the field, Li Qiao, as the captain, was at the forefront. This was where the Chinese team’s dream journey started in his previous life, and this time Li Qiao hopes to repeat the glory of his previous life.

Opposite are Turkish players, and Li Qiao doesn’t know any of them, but it doesn’t matter, just use the game to get to know the opponent.
