football world number one

Chapter 183

From leaving Piacenza in mid-June, to Armani's fashion show, and then back home.

It was more than July when Liu Feng returned to Piacenza and started his own private training under the guidance of Claudio, so when the one-month training was coming to an end, it was already the beginning of August.

This August is of great significance to all Chinese people, because the BJ Olympics has completely entered the countdown.

As far as world football is concerned, the most concerned is naturally the national Olympic teams of this Olympic Games.

In the Argentine team, there is Messi, who is newly promoted in Barcelona. This genius who copied Maradona in the Copa del Rey last season with five consecutive players, this time will compete with Di Maria, Aguero, Riquelme and other Argentine stars for the Olympic championship.

In the Brazilian team, there are Ronaldinho, Robinho and Pato, who won everyone's love in Milan in the first season, as well as Thiago Silva and Marcelo in the defense and other powerful players.

All in all, just looking at the lineups of the two teams, people understand that this is definitely a game of dragons and tigers.

Of course, in China, people are talking about, in addition to the enviable lineups of the two football powerhouses, there is also the Chinese Olympic team that entered the Olympic Games for the second time in history.

This time, the Football Association has done a lot to make football, which can be said to be one of the worst sports in China, achieve good results.

The most shocking thing, of course, was the two-month suspension of the league before the military training of the entire Olympic team.

In addition, the Football Association, which has always had an attitude of "I don't listen, I don't listen" to the media, did not know what measures it took this time to make the recent domestic football media describe the strength of the Olympic team in a positive way.

Six years ago, the "brilliant record" of the Chinese team scoring nine goals without scoring a goal in the World Cup made many media now maintain a cautious attitude when promoting news about the national team.

However, these became the past tense when the first game of the Olympic team was about to come.

With the young Dong Fangzhuo, the overage Zheng Zhi and a series of players who have returned from overseas, the Football Association believes that this time they will never perform as unsightly as they did six years ago.

On August 8, the Chinese Olympic team will first face the New Zealand team. This is the weakest opponent in Group C of the strong teams such as Belgium and Brazil, and it is also the team that the Chinese team is most likely to win.

Before the game, Chinese coach Yin Tiesheng also expressed his determination to win the game in media interviews. All in all, in the description of the media, the Olympic team is absolutely united.

However, what is going on internally, the foreign teacher Du Yi who was evacuated by the Football Association more than 20 days before the game and the players who were overwhelmed by the coaching change know best.

On this day, Liu Feng deliberately ended training early and returned home in order to be able to watch the first game of the Olympic team. In addition to being a player who was declared by the Football Association that he would not be called into the national team, he had another identity, a Chinese fan.

Unfortunately, in the face of the weakest opponent in the group, the performance of the Chinese team was not ideal.

A team can be called an excellent team only if it can win against opponents weaker than itself, have an advantage when playing against opponents of comparable strength, and be able to fight hard when facing teams stronger than itself.

So what is the performance of the Olympic team, which almost completely overwhelms the New Zealand team in terms of card strength?

Except for Han Peng's header that hit the crossbar in the first 3 minutes, the Olympic team didn't even have a slight advantage in the first half.

This embarrassment did not change at all even after New Zealand player Alder was sent off for accumulating two yellow cards in the 308th minute.

Sitting in front of the TV, Liu Feng scolded his mother angrily, as did countless Chinese fans who watched the game.

Then, the second half of the game kicked off, and the Chinese team even had an advantage of [-] vs. [-], allowing the New Zealand team to score directly after the opening minutes, which is simply unimaginable.

If Dong Fangzhuo, who has been injured since returning from Manchester United, came off the bench in the No.707 minute of the game, Chinese fans who have been looking forward to it for a long time may be disappointed again.

In the 807th minute of the game, after the commentator said with sadness and helplessness that the time left for the Chinese team was running out, King Dong, who had high hopes from domestic fans, stood up.

The young striker, who came on through an injury, jumped high in front of the chaotic penalty area and used all his strength to score the equalizer.

Countless fans watching the game danced with excitement, cheering for the Chinese team's hard-won equalizer. For a while, everyone was so happy that they even forgot that the Chinese team actually played ten against eleven.

After the game, all media reports focused on Dong Fangzhuo helping the Chinese Olympic team achieve zero goals in the men's football team, and did not mention the problems in this game at all.

Liu Feng didn't know what to say after watching the game. As a professional football player, he saw so many problems that he didn't know where to start.

A few years ago, he and his father scolded the national football team and scolded their feet. Now that his father is gone, he doesn't even have the desire to scold the performance of the Olympic team.

Maybe one day, I can help with something...

Liu Feng stood up and sighed, but before the current Football Association stepped down, he would never bow his head.

As for the next match against Belgium and Brazil, Liu Feng no longer has the desire to watch it. Without thinking about it, he can conclude that the Chinese team has absolutely no hope of qualifying.

Before the game, he talked about the weakest opponent for a long time, but at the end he realized that he was the weakest persimmon.

果然，在随后八月十号、八月NO.13的比赛中中国队直接以0-2、0-3的战绩相继输给比利时队和巴西队。

This battle for the Olympic Games started by the Football Association and swept through nearly half a year ended with nothing but feathers.

The contradictions of the Olympic team were also completely exposed after the group was eliminated. From the fact that foreign coaches did not coach under the name of the team to the division of factions between overseas players and domestic players in the team, it can be called a mess.

In the end, the media even broke the news that Dong Fangzhuo made a closed appearance when he was injured at the request of a certain leader.

Although the player himself said in an interview with the media that he asked for it on his own initiative, but when all football players in the world know how much damage to a player is, whether it is active or passive has become an unsolved case.

All in all, as the Olympic team's journey in the Olympic Games came to an end in a hurry, this year's competition that some people made a lot of effort to make a show of their political achievements was messed up.

This time, except for the Olympic men's football team scoring zero breakthroughs, there is only a feather in the ground.

　In that dark age, I think not entering the national team is the best protection for Liu Feng.
