World Cup of Great Powers

The result of successfully qualifying for the World Cup is certainly gratifying, but the problems it exposed are thought-provoking.

Whether it is the degree of analysis of the situation before the game or the response to changes in the opponent's performance during the game, obvious shortcomings are exposed.

But whether it's a player status issue or an overall tactical coordination issue, this is a minor problem.

The most serious problem is that the coaching staff did not even fully understand the qualifying rules before the game.

Not only did he not have any accuracy or backup plan for qualifying, he also became completely confused after the result of the game exceeded expectations.

This kind of coaching team is not worthy of leading a national team.

In response to this, the coaching staff represented by Qi Yousheng conducted a profound review after the game and once again issued a deep apology at the press conference held by Zhuxie.

Of course, that's all.

After all, it’s the first time for everyone, so making mistakes is inevitable!

At the same time, Xinhua News Agency published an article entitled "Give Chinese Football an Accurate Positioning", which has also become a white paper on the current development situation and goals of football.

In this article, one item mentioned is worth pondering.

Why is it that in the same professional football world, the gap between Chinese football and its neighbors, Japan and South Korea, is getting wider and wider.

Apart from institutional issues, is there anything else we haven't done yet?

The national team seems to be very strong, but in this top ten competition, it is only a second-rate team at best.

Although we qualified for the World Cup this time, it was purely a fluke.

Only by knowing your position, working hard, working hard, improving your level from the basics in a down-to-earth manner, and comprehensively enhancing your overall strength can you have the ability to truly impact the World Cup.

In more than a thousand words, he expresses his anger at the football project and his sorrow for its misfortune.

After reading it, relevant people in the industry all learned from the experience and thought about future development.

But thinking consumes energy after all.

After thinking for a while, when my brain began to ache, I had to eat a barbecue or several dinners to barely make up for the wasted brain cells.

The inner room is dark, the outer room is white, the lights are feasting, the skirts are short, the thighs are long, and the people are intoxicated.

Anyway, we have qualified, why not celebrate?

Drinking and drinking each other, and singing every night.

This is the truest portrayal of certain institutions after qualifying for the World Cup.

...

November 15, Zhejiang.

Not everyone is enjoying this free gift.

On the third day after the national team qualified, a traveler wearing sunglasses and a leather windbreaker got off the bus and came to Ningbo, a city that had no railways yet.

Ningbo local: Fuck you Liu Jianhong, at least we also have a single-line Xiao-Ningbo Railway?

A few hours later, the man in sunglasses came to a dilapidated family building.

After confirming the address in his hand again and again, the man in sunglasses shook his head and kept making tut-tsk sounds.

After walking in, the structure inside is no different from that of an ordinary residential building.

But as soon as I reached the corner of the second floor, I saw a shabby handwritten sign - "Locomotive Shanshan Club".

"Who are you looking for?" The aunt at the front desk who was knitting a sweater glanced at the visitor and asked casually.

"I'm looking for Manager Chen."

"Oh, go in."

The aunt glanced at the back room and moved her stool to make way for her.

The walls of three houses were opened, and the entire third floor was turned into a company office.

Arriving at the manager's room at the back, the man in sunglasses knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

"Zhiyo~"

The door handle turned and the man in sunglasses walked in.

Behind the shabby pear wood desk, the half-white-haired Manager Chen frowned.

"Who are you..."

The man in sunglasses had just taken off his glasses, but before he could say anything, Manager Chen stood up from behind the table.

"Coach Zeng?"

"Is it really you?"

"welcome!"

"Why did you come to this small place like Ningbo?"

"Come on, come on, please sit down, please sit down!"

"Aunt Zhang, we have a distinguished guest, please bring out my Longjing tea!"

Zeng Zheng was not polite to him and sat down on the sewing sofa supported by countless threads.

"Coach Zeng, you are a great hero!"

"Our national team can qualify for the World Cup because of you!"

With that said, Manager Chen gave Zeng Zheng a thumbs up.

"The bamboo shoes that provide logistics support and the team members fighting desperately to kill the enemy are all bullshit!"

"If you ask me, you, Coach Zeng, must be the strategist to win the battle thousands of miles away!"

Before Zeng Zheng could speak, Manager Chen praised Zeng Zheng fiercely.

It is not difficult to see that Manager Chen is also a die-hard fan.

After boasting for a long time and drinking half of the Longjing tea, Manager Chen finally said tentatively:

"Coach Zeng, are you here...to help us?"

Locomotive Shanshan is the majestic Tianjin Locomotive team back then.

After football became professional, Lokomotiv performed poorly.

Last year they were relegated to Class B and even lost their home court.

On March 4 this year, all Locomotive personnel got on the bus bound for Ningbo.

But the bus broke down on the way, and it took 6 hours to arrive after a one-and-a-half-hour journey. Only then did Liu Jianhong's words from "Football Night" come true: "Ningbo, which has no railway access, has a team of its own this season."

My home team: Lokomotiv."

The arrival of the locomotive made Ningbo locals extremely happy.

Although they are foreign monks, local fans in Ningbo have always regarded Lokomotiv as their home team.

Under the title of local brand Shanshan, Locomotive Shanshan came into being.

Ningbo fans were enthusiastic, but they could only watch in shock as the home team was bullied by everyone and struggled to win.

Less than halfway through, the locomotive was firmly nailed to the position of deputy squad leader.

It wasn't until June that Lokomotiv defeated the Liaoning team at home and won its first win of the season.

Not long ago, we finally achieved our second victory, defeating the magical city of Pudong.

As a result, the headline on the news that night was "Lokomotiv wins!"

How bitter?

According to the contract, once Lokomotiv is relegated, Shanshan's title contract will be terminated immediately.

Manager Chen, who has definitely been demoted, is worried now!

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing Zeng Zheng come to his small place, how can Manager Chen not want to fall in love with Pianpian?

"Sorry, Manager Chen, I'm not that capable!" Zeng Zheng waved his hand.

"The locomotive's problems have to be solved by the locomotive itself. If I, an outsider, come over, I will only add to the chaos."

joke!

Locomotive has definitely been downgraded, and even the King of Heaven and I can't save it!

"Okay, let Coach Zeng see the joke."

Manager Chen also knew that his small temple could not retain the great Bodhisattva Zeng Zheng, and what he just said was just a test.

"Then Coach Zeng is here this time..."

"I'm here to buy someone."

"Buy people?" Manager Chen's mind was suddenly filled with questions.

"That's right."

Zeng Zheng said, taking out an A4 paper from his backpack and placing it in front of Manager Chen.

"This is the transfer contract between Li Weifeng and Bao Wenjie."

"Take a look. If you feel something is wrong, you can tell me directly."

As soon as he heard the names of these two people, Manager Chen's brows immediately wrinkled.

In the era of the professional system, the Locomotive team was widely distributed due to the large number of employees in the railway department.

Just like the Bayi Team, it can recruit good talents from all over the country.

So from a historical perspective, Lokomotiv itself is a team with sufficient reserves.

For such a team, despite its poor performance, it is not difficult at all to have two young players selected for Jianlibao.

"Coach Zeng, we have no intention of selling anyone..."

Manager Chen was interrupted by Zeng Zheng when he was halfway through speaking.

"Manager Chen, you and I both know the current situation of the locomotive."

"The 290W that Shanshan gave me can't even make water splash."

"And I heard that Ping An is acquiring the team, right?"

"These two people are not in the locomotive team. They are all selling anyway, so why not sell them for a higher price?"

Jian Zeng Zheng pointed out the current situation of the team to the point.

Manager Chen looked at the contract on the table and fell into deep thought.
