Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 194 Lost to the National Team
In the office, Gao Hongbo was frowning and thinking, holding a training list for the Chinese men's football team in his hand.I saw that there were many names written on the list, some of which were crossed diagonally.

After hesitating for a long time, Gao Hong wave pen added two names at the end, but crossed them out after a while.

"Hey, it's hard to make a decision. There are too many people to consider. But my quota is not enough!" Gao Hongbo frowned deeply and sighed.It looks like he's stuck in an undecided tangle.

"To be able to walk here today is all due to God's favor. Maybe Bo Yibo really has a way out. It's decided like this." After another tangled up, Gao Hongbo finally gritted his teeth and made a decision this time.He picked up the pen again and wrote the two names that were written and crossed out just now at the end.After finishing writing, Gao Hongbo breathed a sigh of relief.Then he stood up firmly and walked out with the list that he just wrote.

Soon after, Gao Hongbo came to an office door and knocked on the door.

"Please come in." A dignified voice came from inside the door.

Hearing this, Gao Hongbo piled up a smile, turned the doorknob and walked in.In front of a middle-aged man with leadership style, Gao Hongbo bowed slightly and said, "Captain Yan, my list is finally finalized."

"Oh. Director Gao has already finalized it? Come on, let me take a look."

Team Yan, full of leadership style, left the desk with a sign of 'National Team Leader Yan Binguo' on it.Yan Binguo took the list from Gao Hongbo's hand with a smile. "Come on, Director Gao, sit down. I'll take a look first."

"Thank you, Team Yan. Please correct me if there is anything wrong with this list." Gao Hongbo smiled and nodded his thanks, and then followed Yan Binguo's instructions and sat on the opposite sofa.

After reading the meeting list, Yan Bingguo frowned first, and then quickly regained his composure.

After looking at it for a while, Yan Bingguo seemed to think about it, then slowly raised his head and said to Gao Hongbo who was smiling and waiting for instructions from the leader: "Yes. I read this list, and the problem is not too big. Basically, he has strength. The players are here. But ```"

Hearing this, Gao Hongbo didn't even wrinkle his eyebrows, but said with a smile: "Please tell me, Captain Yan. After all, this time is about the top 12. We have only entered again in the past ten years. We must attach great importance to it. Who needs to be carefully considered, and teamwork is the best. After all, Team Yan has led the national team for a long time, and he must be more familiar with the characteristics of players than I am."

Yan Bingguo nodded with a smile. "This list is basically not bad. It's just that individual lists need to be discussed."

"Oh."

"There are several players on the long-term candidate list of the national team. I think the level is very good. And the state is very good recently. I think players like this should be considered."

After speaking, Yan Bingguo added a few more names to the list.Then hand it to Gao Hongbo.

After Gao Hongbo took it over and took a look, he frowned and quickly returned to calm.After thinking for a while, he said: "These people are really good after our observation during this period. They also have their own characteristics. There should be no problem with their strength to enter the national team. However, our current roster already has 25 players. The official roster has only 23 people. There are two candidates themselves. Will the list be too much now?"

"Well. Actually, I have considered this too. The list, it really shouldn't be too large. I personally think that these two people can be changed." As he spoke, Yan Binguo took the list and crossed out two names on it. Then hand it back to Gao Hongbo.

When Gao Hongbo took a look, the smile on his face froze. "Here, Captain Yan. I made a lot of determination to recruit these two names. Captain Yan, do you think about it again?"

"This young man is indeed very good. His recent performance is very eye-catching. It is a pity that he is still too young. He lacks experience in major competitions. This is the top 12. The national team is so difficult to have a chance. It cannot be used for training. That's too extravagant." Yan Binguo pointed to a name that he just crossed out.

"Little Zhang Yuning, who has already been decided, is also young. I think such a talented young player should not be afraid to use the second one if he uses one." Gao Hongbo said sincerely.

"This is different. Xiao Zhang Yuning has proven himself. Whether in the previous national team or in the Tevez team in the Eredivisie, he has shown his strength. And he, in Evergrande, did not even play the main force. Come on. There is no room for negligence in such an important match!" Yan Bingguo said solemnly.

"This~ well. What about him? He is a mature player. I think he is a player that the national team needs." Gao Hongbo could only step back and point to another crossed-out name.

Yan Bingguo shook his head, and continued: "Although he is quite mature in age, it is well known that his professional experience is younger."

"But he is really capable. With him, the midfield defense of the national team will be improved to a higher level. You know, his recent performance in the Super League is very outstanding." This time Gao Hongbo tried to convince the opponent.

"Well. I've seen his league statistics, and I'm sure he's okay. But he's not only from an amateur background, but he's never been to a national team of any level, and he doesn't have much experience in major competitions. This really needs to be carefully considered. "

"I think, based on his performance in the Super League against those powerful foreign players, his strength and characteristics are very prominent. Among the data we collected, his average running distance per game is the most in the Super League. In fact, various defensive data It is also among the top few in the Chinese Super League.”

"There is already Cai Huikang who is of the same type as him, and he is much stronger than him in terms of competition experience. If he is added, some positions overlap. And he has too many fouls in the league. At this point, it is time At the national team level, I was very worried about getting a red card. That kind of thing, if it happens once, it will kill people. Instead of this, I think it would be better to switch to other styles of players. That way you will have more choose."

"Then ~ replace him with Cai Huikang. The national team needs him."

"This~ Director Gao, you know that the national team is not just our business. It is also related to the interests and quotas of each club. Some things, we need to consider the club's feelings. Actually, you and I understand. What is the level of the current group of players? Who is higher and who is lower, isn’t it just like that? There are no outstanding players.”

"Personally, I think he still looks quite outstanding. His characteristics are very distinctive. He is a player that the national team needs." Gao Hongbo said firmly.

Yan Binguo frowned, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head.

"Compared with other players, he does have more prominent characteristics. However, the national team represents the face of our country. Considering his recent incident, it is really difficult to recruit him into the team. Fighting and involving gangsters, Recruiting such people into the team is really detrimental to the image of the country."

"This~" Hearing this, Gao Hongbo was a little embarrassed to answer because it was raised to the face of the country.After thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and continued, "Captain Yan, I still think he should be given a chance."

"Guide Gao. It's not easy for you to sit in this position. You are a domestic coach, and you understand some rules." This time, Yan Binguo's expression was a little serious.

Gao Hongbo's expression was very struggling.After struggling in his heart for a while, he was like a deflated football with a look of disappointment on his face. "It turns out that the leader has such an opinion. Then I~ accept the leader's opinion."

Yan Bingguo smiled, patted Gao Hongbo on the shoulder and said, "That's right. The national team is not about you alone, it's about all of us. It's a matter of great importance. An excellent local coach in China. The Football Association is very optimistic about you."

"Mmm, yes." Gao Hongbo nodded noncommittally.

"Hehe. That's the list. I'll let someone send out the notice."

~~~~~~
On the same day, the top 12 of the World Cup qualifiers, the roster of the Chinese men's football team appeared on major websites.The clubs and the players on the list have also received faxes from the Football Association.

Everyone has been looking forward to the list of the top 12 Chinese national teams for a long time. When it came out, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.

In this list, as many people expected, there are many people that everyone is looking forward to.Like Wu Lei, he appeared on the list as expected.Of course, there are several other players who are very popular outside appearing on the roster.Like the 36-year-old veteran Zheng Zhi that everyone has been calling for.The selection of Zheng Zhi made the fans cheer for him.

You know, Zheng Zhi was the captain of the Evergrande team, and he was not selected for several rounds before the top 12, which caused a lot of controversy.It even appeared that Li Tie bombarded the national team at a press conference after a certain Chinese Super League game. "Why can't Zheng Zhi enter the national team, why can't the captain of the Chinese Super League champion and AFC Champions be able to enter the national team? I really can't figure it out."

This sentence is still deeply remembered by countless fans a few months later.You must know that Li Tie's incident caused quite a stir at the time.Now, Zheng Zhi has finally returned to the national team as everyone expected, which can not but be said to make the fans look forward to and excited.

It is gratifying that some people are selected, but it is very surprising that some people are selected.

"Ren Hang, Ren 8000 million. Why is he in the national team?"

"He hasn't played football for three or four months, and hasn't trained well with the team. How could he be selected for the national team?"

"How can Ren Qianqian be selected?"

"He can still be selected after he is like this? How tough is the background? Could it be that all Chinese defenders are dead. Need such a person who has not played football for a long time?"

~~~~~~
Some are controversial, but others are even more controversial.

"Why wasn't Lin Fan selected? He's so young and talented, why wasn't he included?"

"That's right. Zhang Yuning was selected, why not Lin Fan?"

"Lin Fan's ability, I think he is no worse than the midfielders on the list. Why is there no him? He is a rare talent."

"Maybe he is too young. And he is not even the main player in the Super League. And Zhang Yuning has proved himself in the Eredivisie. It is incomparable."

"What the hell. Rubbish like Ren Hang gets in, so why can't Lin Fan get in?"

"Let me tell you. The most irritating thing is that Cao Yunding was not selected. How good is he in the league this year? With his ability, he can pass and shoot. Even with such abilities, he will not be able to enter the national team. Are you messing around?"

"That's right. I don't want a breakthrough king like Cao Yunding, but I want rubbish like Ren Hang. I copied it. This dish is really slippery. I can't put it on the table."

"I'm eating too, I copy, the dishes are really smooth."

"+1" "+2" "+```"

"I think Yan Feng of R&F should also join the national team. I think his average running distance has reached 13000 meters per game. He is simply an iron man. Why not choose him?"

"Yan Feng is good at track and field, but for the national team, let's forget it."

"Is Yan Feng that bad? I think with his ability, he can definitely beat Cai Huikang, who is on the national team's roster."

"I also think Yan Feng is stronger than Cai Huikang. Yan Feng is more domineering, not stupid."

"I'll go, what's the opinion of everyone upstairs? This gangster trash also wants to join the national team? Is this going out to shame people?"

"Shut up upstairs. Why can't such an excellent player as Yan Feng enter the national team? The trolls can only spray dung."

"That's right. Get out of here. Support Yan Feng's entry into the national team."

"Support Lin Fan to join the national team."

"Support Cao Yunding to enter the national team."

"Support ``````"

"I copied, this dish is really smooth! ```"

After the roster of the national team came out, there was something to praise, but there were more things that made people scold.

Yu Hong, who was far away in an office in Shenzhen, typed the paragraph 'Support Yan Feng's entry into the national team' on his computer, and he clicked the text to publish.After that, he turned his head to Li Xueer who was looking at the computer and said, "Mr. Li, this time Brother Feng lost the election."

"Well, I see." Li Xueer looked at the news on the Internet and frowned.I also know, what will happen to Yan Feng?He should be very disappointed!
Of course, Yan Feng in Guangzhou also knew the news.He lost.Lost.He was not included in the squad for the national team this time!
After knowing the news, Yan Feng was very disappointed and disappointed.

Especially on the second day at the training base, when his teammates congratulated Jiang Zhipeng for being selected for the national team, Yan Feng felt even more uncomfortable.He felt hurt.

"Why? What's wrong with me? Where am I worse than those people? My performance is better than many people above. Why can some people get in? What is better than me? I really can't understand That night, Yan Feng said angrily by the Pearl River.

"Those people really have no eyes." Li Xueer, who professionally came from Shenzhen to accompany Yan Feng, also said angrily.

"Hey. I thought that with my performance in the league, I should be able to realize my dream of entering the national team this time. Unexpectedly, the reality slapped me." Yan Feng said a little disappointed.

"Don't be sad. If you don't get in, don't get in. There will be opportunities in the future. With your better and better performance, they will definitely have to improve in the future." Li Xueer comforted.

Yan Feng shook his head.

"You will definitely be able to enter the national team in the future. Not this time, you will definitely be able to enter next time. I believe in your strength. You are the best in China. In the future, you will be better than now, so good that others cannot ignore you .I believe you will become a big star. And it won't be too long." Li Xueer looked at Yan Feng's appearance and knew that he was hit hard by this loss.She didn't want Yan Feng to be depressed because of this blow.

"Thank you, Xueer. Thank you for supporting me so much. For believing in me." Yan Feng looked at Li Xueer's firm and serious eyes.He was a little moved, but not so uncomfortable.

"Xue'er, you are right. I didn't get selected this time, but I will definitely do it next time. I want to be better. It's so good that they can't ignore me!" Yan Feng began to become firm.He has never given up easily and always faced difficulties, but under Li Xueer's persuasion, he gradually regained his fighting spirit.

"You can do it." Li Xueer happily looked at the resolute Yan Feng.This is the man she admires the most.It was Yan Feng's appearance of never losing his fighting spirit on the court that deeply attracted her.
