World Cup of Great Powers

"Brazil in the final of the Chinese Youth Team, the biggest upset in the World Youth Championship"

"The biggest dark horse of the World Youth Championship, making it all the way to the finals"

"The Rising Star of the East"

"How the Chinese Youth Team got through all the way, the stories that Coach Zeng and I have to tell"

After this photo of a smiling photo of the FIFA bamboo mat and the AFC Secretary-General was released, fans around the world were shocked.

What the hell?

The apprentice defeated the master?

Are Asian teams so strong?

The World Youth Championship is not like the Toulon Cup.

The members who can participate in the World Youth Championship are basically the next national champions.

The Chinese youth team can even defeat the Brazilian youth team, so what does that mean?

Does this mean that in three to five years, the Chinese team will be able to beat Brazil?

As the Chinese team shows off its talents in world-class competitions, other countries are also paying attention to this Far East football team.

It is also well known that China sent a youth team to Brazil when it became professional. This method of borrowing chicken to lay eggs has also been used by other countries.

But it’s the first time that the Chinese team has used it so well!

What on earth allowed a weak Asian team with poor overall strength to make it all the way to the finals?

Media outlets from various countries have given what they think is the most reasonable explanation.

Of course, no matter which reason you look for, you can't do without Zeng Zheng, the "magic coach".

In particular, Italy's "Torino Sport" gave a comprehensive analysis of the Chinese youth team's victory over the Brazilian team.

"A team from a backward area once again created a miracle and shattered the Brazilians' championship dream."

"No one thought before the game that such a team would only concede one goal under the stormy attack of the Brazilian team."

"No one thought that the Brazilian team would lose its momentum after scoring a goal."

"It was precisely because of this goal difference that the Brazilian team lost two goals in a row at the last moment and lost their ticket to the final."

"Now, no one will say it was a joke when the Chinese team won the championship."

"Because the championship can only come between the Chinese team and Spain."

Next, "Turin Sports" spent a lot of space, starting from the first goal of the two teams, detailing the instructions of the coaches on the sidelines and the results and effects of each substitution adjustment.

Through such detailed analysis, fans were surprised to find that Zeng Zheng's every command was not a random mistake, but had another purpose.

On the other hand, the Brazilian team, with Zeng Zheng's step-by-step preparation, gradually fell into the trap set by Zeng Zheng.

Even in the end, when Shao Jiayi used Kumba to score the winning goal, the Brazilian team did not fully understand the seriousness of the situation.

They thought that the purpose of the Chinese Youth Team was to drag the game into a penalty shootout, but they did not expect that Zeng Zheng’s idea from beginning to end was to end the battle within 90 minutes!

Are there many examples of strategic mistakes that led to the defeat of a well-equipped army and good generals?

When Zeng Zheng's name was once again touted by the world, several young players in the China Youth Team also gained favor from fans and the media.

[To be honest, I have been using the Huanyuan app recently to read and catch up on updates. It allows me to switch between sources and read aloud with many sounds. .huanyuanapp is available for Android and Apple.]

The most eye-catching thing is that Shao Jiayi was elected as the chief striker!

So far, Shao Jiayi has scored 6 goals, averaging 1.0 goals per game, and is far ahead in the scorer list.

In the second position, there is only Ronaldinho, with 4 goals.

Among the players who are ranked third and have the last game left, there are two from Spain, one from the junior team, and one from the China Youth Team.

Judging from this result, as long as the 3rd and 4th place players do not lose too much to the Brazilian team in the finals, it is basically a certainty that Shao Jiayi will win the Golden Boot of this World Youth Championship.

You know, according to Zeng Zheng's formation, Shao Jiayi's position is only the left midfielder, not even the left winger.

But every time when attacking, Shao Jiayi's point is extremely important.

He can either create opportunities with a pass from the bottom, or he can get close to the center to complete a fatal blow when the team attacks from the other side.

The most important thing is that Shao Jiayi also has an extremely elegant free kick!

Such an aggressive player immediately became a star sought after by clubs around the world.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, several Italian clubs are competing for this young player from Guoan.

These clubs include Serie A's AC Milan, Parma, Perugia, and Serie B's Brescia.

There are even rumors that Shao Jiayi's net worth has been speculated to 30 billion lire (approximately 20 million U.S. dollars).

What is slightly surprising is that many fans among the European scouts gathered at the World Youth Championship believe that Zheng Zhi, another midfielder of the Chinese Youth Team, has greater potential than Shao Jiayi.

If Zheng Zhi hadn't been in the midfield to solidly defend, the Chinese Youth Team wouldn't have been able to even defend, let alone counterattack.

The most important thing is that Zheng Zhi has scored as many as 3 goals in the World Youth Championship so far!

You know, his position is the midfielder!

Scoring so many goals as a defensive midfielder also fully demonstrates his ability on the offensive end.

Today's football has gradually developed in an all-round way, and the requirements for midfielders will also increase day by day.

Guys like Zheng Zhi, who are as strong defensively as an ox and as powerful offensively as a tiger, are deeply loved by major coaches.

Among the clubs interested in Zheng Zhi, there is even a team like Barcelona!

When domestic and foreign media began to brag about the Chinese Youth Team, South Korea became sour.

The heroic performance of the Chinese youth team in the semifinals completely shocked the South Korean football world.

On the day after the game, the South Korean football community was filled with envy, jealousy, anxiety and worry as the Chinese youth team reached the semi-finals and then reached the finals, with a bit of a sour taste in their hearts.

At the same time, some people in South Korea's domestic football circles took this opportunity to propose that they should reflect on the development process of their own football and learn the strengths of Chinese football and use them for their own purposes.

According to "Seoul Daily" when commenting on the football level of China and South Korea, it is generally believed that China's football level has surpassed that of South Korea.

The status of "Asian football representative" that was always maintained by South Korea in the past has now been "taken away by China."

You know, in this World Youth Championship, South Korea did not even qualify for the World Youth Championship!

We are also neighbors, but we are much more polite on the other side.

"Asahi Shimbun" first praised and congratulated the China Youth Team for their overtake victory, and then published some words of regret and emotion.

The general idea is that it is a pity that we did not meet the Chinese Youth Team in the finals, and it is even more regretful that we did not meet the Chinese Youth Team in the semi-finals.

...

The results achieved by the Chinese Youth Team in the World Youth Championship and the subsequent knock-on effects have also deeply stimulated the country.

While Xu Fang was taking charge of purging the domestic football scene, he also held a small-scale meeting with several other deputy officials.

The general goal is to use the opportunity of this World Youth Championship to vigorously develop domestic youth football.

"Football is a long-term and long-lasting thing, we can't just be good at this one!"

"If this group of young people play well, what's the use?"

"So, we have to put the issue of youth training on the agenda as soon as possible!"

Several powerful people present deeply agreed with Xu Fang's proposal.

At this time, a director raised his hand and asked: "Don't we have a college league and a Universiade? Aren't these two enough?"

"How old are college students?" Xu Fang rolled his eyes, "Our goal this time is middle school students!"

middle School student?

As soon as these three words came out, everyone at the scene fell silent.

In middle school, these three words are as important as ten thousand words in China.

Whether it is junior high school or high school, these are the most critical years for a young person.

If you have not taken the right path in the past few years, it may affect you for the rest of your life.

Everyone here was silent. They all wanted to see what Xu Fang would come up with to resolve the conflict between football and study.

"Of course, I also know that it is not the time to have a junior high school student league or a high school student league."

Xu Da waved his hand, "But we can start developing from the sports school and club youth training team first!"

"I suggest that we should first integrate students from various sports schools and conduct a unified u16 national league."

“From local, to province, to region, and then to the whole country.”

"The participating teams will first come from local sports schools and start the U16 league first."

"When it reaches a certain scale, both secondary vocational schools and some middle schools can gradually join in."

"You have all seen the young football players in their childhood, right?"

"You know, our high school league has been held for almost 80 years."

"There is so much experience next door that we can learn from. I don't believe we can't run U16!"

Xu Fang's bold words excited everyone present.

But as exciting as it is, practical problems are a constant problem.

Personnel organization and staffing have been basically ignored. The first question is, where does the money come from?

Everyone looked at Xu Fang with interest.

They believed that since Xu Fang could put forward this suggestion, they would naturally be able to solve the problem of funding sources.

However, Xu Fang's answer was to spread his hands.

"money?"

“Let’s raise money!”

Are you still raising money from all walks of life as before?

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this.

This is not easy to handle!

Seeing everyone with their heads drooped, they acted like cowards once again.

Xu Fang also snorted.

"You guys don't need to worry about money."

"Lao Wang and I can handle it."

"But I'll say it first."

"After the funds are in place, if this league ends in an anticlimactic state, I won't forgive you!"

"understand?"

Everyone nodded quickly after hearing this.

Since Xu Fang returned from illness, he has become much more decisive in killing.

Even some of his colleagues who had been with him for many years were sent directly to the judicial authorities by him.

Many people in Bamboo Shoes complained about this matter, complaining that Xu Fang was unkind.

What's more, they even reported it to their superiors, hoping to capture Xu Fang.

The authorities turned a blind eye to these "favor requests".

The first priority of bamboo shoes is to make money.

Although Xu Fang is making a bit of noise and being ruthless now, his income is also booming on the premise that his football results are getting better and better.

As long as your income reaches the standard, I don't care how good your bamboo shoes are or how many people are sent in.

You know, the Sports Bureau also has ambitions.

At that time, football was deliberately separated from all major sports events, and there was also an intention to build football into a "brand" like cigarettes.

Maybe one day in the future, the money earned from football can also add an aircraft carrier to our country!

...

This time Blatter came to Nigeria not only to watch the games of the seeded teams, but also to receive a large number of complaints.

In a public appearance after the semi-finals, Blatter finally admitted that he was not responsible for Nigeria's organizational work.

Not very satisfied.

"There are many problems with the actual number of spectators in Nigeria's stadiums, communications and air transportation, and they are not irresponsible."

"The electronic communication system must be improved. After moving here, we discovered that it is very difficult to make phone calls, especially long-distance calls."

"And many people told me before that Nigerians love football, but after I sent it to the scene, I found that the local fans were not as many as the Chinese fans!"

"Now there is only one third-place final and one final left in the game."

"I hope Nigeria will pay more attention to these two finals."

As soon as Blatter finished speaking, something happened to the China Youth Team over there.

The final final was finally played at the venue where they had competed before - Lagos, the capital of Nigeria.

The Chinese Youth Team previously defeated Paraguay 3-2 on this court.

But for Spain, it is their first time to set foot on this land.

From this point of view, although the China Youth Team has taken advantage.

But what happened next made the whole team angry.

Because all four teams will fly to Lagos to participate in the finals, domestic flights in Nigeria have been temporarily adjusted.

The Chinese Youth Team stayed at the airport for two more hours before boarding the plane, and there was an accident when they landed.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When the Chinese Youth Team arrived at the Lagos Airport, the plane door was locked before everyone got off the plane.

Then, Zeng Zheng was trapped on the tarmac alone.

Fortunately, it was Zeng Zheng who was trapped.

If it were someone like Zhu Guanghu who didn't speak English very well, he might have caused a lot of trouble.

By the time Zeng Zheng took a taxi to the hotel alone, it was already past 8 p.m.

Afterwards, the Chinese complained to the organizer about this matter, but the response they received was even more outrageous.

“It would be great if you can get to Lagos in one day!”

"It took me two days to fly from Kalba in my childhood!"

When Zeng Zheng dragged his tired body and lay on the hotel bed ready to fall asleep, the annoying buzzing sounded in his ears again.

This trip to Nigeria can be regarded as a lesson for Bamboo Shoes.

Next time you lead a team to fight in Africa, you can bring two less boxes of pickled mustard and fermented bean curd, and you must definitely not miss out on mosquito nets!

After finally falling asleep, Zeng Zheng was woken up by another knock on the door while wandering around the lake.

"Who is it? It's so late at night and you're not letting anyone rest?"

Zeng rubbed his sleepy eyes, wore a pair of flowery pants and barefoot slippers, and opened the door.

Ouch!!!

The scene outside the door made Zeng Zheng wake up instantly.

Damn it!

Haunted?

The corridor was crowded, densely packed with people.

Without exception, these people all have one thing in common - women!

Seeing the door of Zeng Zheng's room open, he heard a "hoo!" and seven or eight women dressed in gorgeous clothes gathered around him.

"Hello, sir, do you need any special services?"

"Sir, I am the most famous in the local area, you can call me Lisa!"

"Sir, you are so strong, can I come with my sisters?"

“Sorry, I don’t need it!!!”

Zeng Zheng was so frightened that he immediately closed the door.

Stabbed the henhouse?

Is this a hotel or a brothel?

After closing the door with all his strength and returning to the room, Zeng Zheng's heart was still pounding.

Although these black girls don't look very good, they can't help but have good figures.

On such a hot day, many people simply put on a bikini with a gauze cloth.

In such a bloody scene, Zeng Zheng was really afraid that the team members would not be able to control themselves.

He nnd, if I find out who can't hold back tomorrow, I will expel him from the team directly!
