Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 226 Bringing Victory to the National Football Team

The new training period of the national football team will soon end, and the game will come as scheduled.

During this period of time, Yan Feng worked very hard, but unfortunately, apart from being included in the 23-man roster, he failed to win the starting position.However, his relationship with other people in the team has gradually become familiar, and the level of tacit understanding has improved to a certain extent.

In the national team, Yan Feng did not go well, but his career has really started.Originally, he was worried that because of Zhou Yun's incident, his team would slowly disintegrate.Unexpectedly, Li Xueer and the others are still managing the Clover Company, and they are doing well.

Clover has already produced products. Although it is not well-known for the time being, I believe that with continued investment and Yan Feng can help the company to advertise, it will definitely get better and better in the future.Especially in today's environment where the sports industry is booming, it can definitely develop rapidly.

Of course, the biggest credit for all of this is Li Xueer.She herself is the owner of a fashion company, and her family also owns the entire industry chain involving clothing.Li Xueer took advantage of these family relationships to quickly get the company on the right track, and there were more than two or three times fewer people who needed to invest money to start from scratch.

And all of this, in fact, Yan Feng doesn't know much about it, his first job is to play football well.All he knew was that Clover was on the right track.Of course he also knew that Li Xueer's contribution was indispensable to all of this.Because of this, the sense of indebtedness in his heart is increasing day by day.It's just that he doesn't know how to face it yet.

If you don’t know what to do, try not to think about it.Next, the national team game is about to begin.This is what Yan Feng needs most attention at the moment.

On November 11, the fifth round of the top 15 of the 2018 Russia World Cup qualifiers began.

As the venue of the competition, the Chinese team chose Kunming, which belongs to the plateau.The Chinese team has always liked to place their home court on a plateau, hoping to get the greatest home court advantage.But often because of their own reasons, they are not eggs!
On this day, probably because of Lippi's super appeal, there are still many fans present to cheer for the national football team.It is estimated that a large part of it is because it has been a month since the last national football fiasco.The Chinese fans have healed their scars and forgotten their pain.Otherwise, a month ago, not many fans would be willing to watch the national football game.

Thanks to the consistent enthusiasm of the Chinese fans to give hope and see hope, the atmosphere at home in Kunming is not bad this time.This gave a lot of confidence to the national football soldiers who had experienced the previous scolding.

"Come on, beat them! Brother Peng, blow up their right lane!" Yan Feng cheered loudly for Jiang Zhipeng, who started the game.

Yan Feng, who was sitting on the bench, looked at this teammate from R&F with envy.A teammate from R&F became the starter, but he could only sit in the substitute seat. Apart from envy, Yan Feng was also a little depressed.

He is extremely eager to really go to the battlefield, instead of just sitting in the sub bench to cheer for his teammates again and again.But after looking at the players who started this time, Yan Feng was also a little unwilling and helpless.

This time the Chinese team deployed an attacking formation like 433.The midfielders are Zhang Xizhe, Huang Bowen, Wu Xi and Zheng Zhi.These players are either offensively balanced or have relatively strong organizational skills.It can be seen that in Lippi's team, technical players are more popular.

This is the reason why Yan Feng is unwilling but helpless.Every coach has his own style, and not every coach will value a defensive player like him.Although Yan Feng has many goals and assists, he still thinks that he is a defensive midfielder in his heart.

In fact, many of Yan Feng's goals were scored head-on, and it is difficult for people to see the slightest technical flow from him.Regarding this point, in this era of technology flow as the tide, it is difficult for him to be appreciated by coaches who have not been in contact with him for a long time.Yan Feng is really at a disadvantage in this regard.

Seeing the formation of 433, Yan Feng began to have no hope of whether he would play.

Soon, the game on the court started.

At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team launched a tough rush.Forcing the Qatar team is very embarrassed.This momentum and the fighting spirit displayed are eye-catching.

After only a few minutes of kicking off, the fans cheered up.They saw a different Chinese team and the changes Lippi brought to the national football team.

"Wow, that's a good performance. Maybe win this time?"

"Lipi is Lippi. Once he came, the Chinese team became like a team. If I can maintain this performance for seven to eight 10 minutes, then even if I don't lose, I will be very satisfied."

"Come on, Chinese team. Win Qatar."

With the fans cheering, the Chinese team continued to put pressure on Qatar and began to create opportunities to hit the goal.It's a pity that the martial arts king is not Messi after all, and he still failed to grasp the opportunity.The teenager Zhang Yuning also performed well, but he failed to score a goal.

Since the Chinese team only scored one point in the previous four games, they are at the bottom of the group.Therefore, the Chinese team is full of desire to win this game.The Chinese team, which played very actively and aggressively, began to gain the upper hand in the game.

"Shut him, Brother Peng. Beautiful, cross~ Hey, it's just a close call!" As the game progressed, Yan Feng began to cheer his teammate Jiang Zhipeng excitedly.

As soon as this game started, Jiang Zhipeng was very active, and he was able to create murderous opportunities on the wing every time.However, forwards like Wuqiu Wang did not perform well, wasting a lot of his crosses.

Yan Feng felt very happy and proud that his teammates from the same club performed so well.As for the other people who followed up the attack, Yan Feng wished he could rush onto the stage.

The Chinese team's offense is getting sharper and sharper, and the number of shots is increasing.Although Qatar, the opponent, is a little out of shape.The way they showed today is a bit eye-popping.

"Is Qatar so weak? Didn't you say that the West Asian team is very good?" Looking at the Qatar team, which is no match for the Chinese team, Yan Feng was very puzzled.With such a Qatar team, Yan Feng felt that if he played, wouldn't he be able to charge as much as he wanted?
In fact, the real strength of Qatar does not lose to the Chinese team.There is a reason for this.One is that their four main players, including the core Hassan, have been suspended.Another, when they came to Kunming, there was a 'charter flight oolong incident'.The last one, of course, is the physical discomfort caused by the plateau.

Under the combined forces of various situations, the Qatar team appeared vulnerable.However, the Chinese team's offensive ability is also weak, and there are many opportunities, but there is no way to kick the ball into the goal.

Throughout the first half, the Chinese team can be said to have an overwhelming advantage, but they just couldn't score.In the end, the two sides ended the first half 0:0.

In Shenzhen, in a private room, the game is being played on a 40-inch LCD TV.

"Unfortunately, although the Chinese team had an advantage in the first half, it was a pity that they failed to convert the advantage into goals. In the second half, ``````" the commentary on the TV was talking.

"Why didn't Yan Feng play? How is Yan Feng's strength inferior to other people? If he was on the court, he would have scored a goal long ago. Those who die with five goals are simply soft-footed shrimps!" At this time, a The beautiful woman in a black dress who was watching TV said dissatisfiedly.

"In the second half, he should be on the field." Said another beauty in professional attire who was equally as beautiful as the previous one.

"Hmph, what's so good? It doesn't matter if it's up or not." Another short-haired girl who looked like a tomboy in loose clothes said.

"If he doesn't play, the contract will be difficult to negotiate." The woman who spoke first said.

"Our company also needs him to have a better performance and reputation. If he doesn't play, or if he doesn't perform well, it will not be so easy for our company to develop rapidly in the short term." The beauty in business attire is also a little unwilling said.

"Well, I hope he can play in the second half and perform well." The woman in the black dress continued.

Here are three women of different looks watching the Chinese team's game.And the "he" they mentioned was actually Yan Feng.

If Yan Feng was in this room at this time, he would be so frightened that his jaw would drop to the ground.

Because, the three women who were watching the game in this private room at this time were the ones he would never expect to get together.These three people are Zhou Yun, Li Xueer and Aunt Ni.

The one in the black dress is Zhou Yun, the one in business attire is Li Xueer, and the rest is Aunt Ni.It turned out that these three people would watch the game together, which Yan Feng could never have imagined.Ever since Zhou Yun wanted to join his economic team, Yan Feng has been troubled by the meeting of these three people.

Whenever he thinks about the relationship between these three women, of course mainly Zhou Yun and Li Xueer's relationship with him, he will feel confused and have a headache.In his imagination, if these three people meet, it will be the end of the world.

As for the current scene, Yan Feng could never have imagined what was going on?
In fact, this was mainly done by Zhou Yun.Zhou Yun has always been a very smart woman. (Who can be a reporter or host, how can anyone be stupid?) Ever since Zhou Yun found out about Li Xueer's existence, she had a strong sense of crisis.The reason why she joined Yan Feng's team knowing that Li Xueer was there is of course her reason.

This time, without Yan Feng's knowledge, Zhou Yun went to Shenzhen to meet Li Xueer and the others on purpose.In fact, she came to Shenzhen with certain goals, but what she didn't expect was that after meeting Li Xueer, she had a flat face and a businesslike look.On the contrary, Aunt Ni maintained a strong repulsion and disgust towards Zhou Yun.

For Li Xueer, who only talked about business affairs and didn't care about other things, Zhou Yun felt like he was punching cotton.Of course, Zhou Yun didn't look aggressive either. When she saw her opponent like this, she just smiled and didn't mention anything else but just talked about business.Anyway, time and advantage are on her side now.

Afterwards, Zhou Yun used her as a reporter and host to practice her nonsense so that Aunt Ni, who had always been very dissatisfied, could not find an excuse to attack.And Li Xueer is also a smart person, and she was not at a disadvantage in the confrontation.After the two fought over and over, they couldn't tell the winner.In the end, they chatted happily on the surface and proposed to watch the game that Yan Feng might play together.

It's a pity that Yan Feng can only sit on the back all the time, which makes them a little disappointed.After seeing that Yan Feng didn't have a chance to play in the entire first half, they temporarily forgot each other's identities and began to fight for Yan Feng.

Yan Feng knew nothing about the incident discovered far away in Shenzhen.He didn't know what happened to the women with whom he was close.His mood is all concerned about the game.

The second half started again.Yan Feng is still sitting in the bench, and the Chinese team is still the same team as in the first half.

After the start of the second half, the Chinese team still took the initiative. Their momentum was strong and they kept putting pressure on Qatar's goal.

In the second half, the desire of the Chinese team to attack became stronger.The offensive is wave after wave, but it has not yet scored a goal.

"Hey, why is Wu Lei in a hurry? I'm not sure about the shot. His long shot is just as good as a clearance." After 10 minutes of the game, Yan Feng was very upset with the Wuqi King's hasty shot. dissatisfied.

Either the Chinese team has no chance, or the striker always can't grasp it.It took the Chinese team 2 minutes of conduction to pass the ball to Wu Lei's feet just now.And Wu Lei chose to hit the goal when it was not an opportunity.In the end, his weak shot could only end up out of the baseline.

If Wu Lei just hit the door alone, Yan Feng would not be so dissatisfied.Yan Feng watched this attack for a long time.He found that Wu Lei hardly moved during such a long period of time.Within a distance of less than three meters, Wu Lei just kept walking up and down two steps.There was no better movement and response.

And when the ball is passed to Wu Lei's feet, there is actually no good chance to shoot.Not only is he far away from the goal, but there are several defensive players in front of him.The best way to deal with this ball is not to hit the goal at will, but to control the ball and distribute it to Zhang Linpeng who is about to set up on the other side.In that way, it will be a very good opportunity to pass the ball to the bottom.It's a pity that the martial arts king blindly wanted to help the Chinese team win by himself, but chose a long shot that seemed to hit the goal but actually cleared the siege.

Seeing this situation, Yan Feng was very dissatisfied.Your sister, do you think you are me?I can't even guarantee that I can score this far.

Yan Feng was not the only one who also saw the problem.Lippi, who is the head coach, sees it even more thoroughly.After watching Wu Lei's performance this time, he shook his head and walked back to his assistant to start preparing for substitutions.

Soon, Wu Lei was replaced by Cao Yunding.

Seeing Cao Yunding dressed up in battle, Yan Feng was full of envy.Why not me?I also want to go up and play football!

After Cao Yunding played, he immediately showed a very good breakthrough ability.Coupled with Jiang Zhipeng who has been cooperating with him, this one directly defeated Qatar's right.For a long time to come, Cao Yunding and Jiang Zhipeng performed consecutively on the wing.

Lippi's substitution was immediate, and the threat to Qatar's goal soared.However, the more aggressive Chinese team just couldn't score.Even Zheng Zhi took a shot from the center post.

Zhongzhu, in fact, is really not a good thing for the Chinese team.In many people's minds, as long as there is a Chinese shot at the center post, it is very likely that there will be a draw.

The Chinese team has an overwhelming advantage, but it just doesn't work.As time passed, the Chinese team, eager for a victory, began to worry.

After 70 minutes of the game, even Lippi began to worry.Seeing that the Chinese team just couldn't score, he began to consider substituting.

Lippi looked at the latent bench and frowned.It's not that there are no offensive players on the late bench, people like Gao Lin and Yu Dabao are there, but there is no one who makes him feel that his combat effectiveness is guaranteed.

Seeing that the young player Zhang Yuning had no energy to fight, Lippi had no choice but to replace Yu Dabao.

It's a pity that Yu Dabao, who has always been called a blessed general, is no longer blessed this time.He played five or six minutes, and he never missed the ball.This made Lippi feel helpless.The Chinese team won't score.This made him very nostalgic for the strong foreign players who scored goals when he was in the Evergrande team.

"Hey, why is there no one who can score goals!" Lippi said to his assistants very disappointed.Although Gao Lin, Zhengyin's striker, was still sitting on the bench, it didn't bring much hope to Lippi at all.

"Maybe, we can try another person?" Assistant coach Li Tie said after thinking about it.

"Gao? Forget it, let him go. We really have to go all out now." Lippi said helplessly.

"No. I want to say that Yan Feng can go up and try." Li Tie shook his head and said.

"Huh? Yan Feng?" Lippi looked at Yan Feng and then at Li Tie in confusion. "you sure?"

"Yeah." Li Tie nodded. "Although Yan Feng appears to be a defensive midfielder on the surface, but you know, he actually has a good scoring ability. His number of goals this year is the same as Wu Lei's and ranks No.2 in the scorer list. "

"Yeah." Lippi also remembered Yan Feng's statistics in the league at this time.To be honest, when he first saw such data, he was full of expectations for Yan Feng.It's just that during the training, Yan Feng's ability to pass and control and his lack of understanding with his teammates disappointed him.He thinks that Yan Feng probably scored so many goals because of his luck. Anyway, with his ability at his feet, he doesn't look like a super midfielder who can score so many goals.

"Yan Feng has the best speed in the team, and his ability to drive up and shoot from the back is very strong. Let him go up and try to shoot from a distance. The effect will definitely be better than others." Li Tie continued.

"Okay. Then let him go up." Lippi decided to adopt Li Tie's suggestion after thinking for a while.After all, he has been away from Chinese football for two years, and he doesn't know much about the new Chinese players.But this did not prevent him from believing in Li Tie's judgment.

"Yan Feng, warm up quickly. Get ready to play."

"Ah!" Yan Feng looked at Li Tie who came to greet him to warm up with some disbelief.Faced with the situation that the Chinese team urgently needs to score goals, although he is confident that he has the ability to score goals, he does not think that the coaching staff who are not familiar with him will let him try.In his mind, it is estimated that the final substitution will definitely be forward Gao Lin.Unexpectedly, it would be him in the end, which surprised and delighted him.

"I'm going to warm up right away." Yan Feng who reacted immediately ran to warm up excitedly.

"Ah! That's great, Yan Feng is finally going to play." At this time, Zhou Yun, who was far away in Shenzhen, was so dizzy watching the game, and when she saw Yan Feng getting up to warm up, she immediately called out excitedly stand up.

"Yes. I'm finally going to play. Come on. Be sure to perform well. You can do it." Li Xueer also clenched her small fists with a happy face at this time.

"Hey, why did Lippi switch to the defensive midfielder?" A fan said puzzled.

"What do you know, this is Yan Feng. His offensive ability is no worse than Wu Lei's match-fixing king. In fact, he should have played a long time ago. His violent long-range shots are the most threatening shots." A full-name excited The color fans said excitedly.It is estimated that this is Yan Feng's fan.

"That's right. Maybe Yan Feng will surprise us or not."

"Come on. Chinese team. Get one!" The fans who knew Yan Feng started to cheer for the Chinese team even more excitedly.

Soon Yan Feng came on stage.He played with excitement and fighting spirit.Although his tacit understanding with most of his teammates on the field is not very good.But he has plenty of energy and a positive attitude.

The Chinese team launched an attack in a hurry, and the attack was still launched by the wing combination of Cao Yunding and Jiang Zhipeng.Their sharp attack once again captured the wing and played a cross from behind.

In the middle, Yu Dabao tried his best to outflank the ball, but unfortunately he failed to outflank the ball.The ball bypassed Yu Dabao, and flew to the rear point near the front of the penalty area with a large spin.

"Hey, another chance wasted!" The fans were disappointed again after seeing the ball flying over Dabao's head.

"Huh~ Someone outflanked the back point." Just as the fans were disappointed, they found another figure who gave them hope was running to the back point at a very fast speed.

This is Yan Feng. Ever since he saw his teammates making an impulse to the side, he consciously stepped forward to follow up.When he saw his teammates break through the wing and prepare to cross, he accelerated and rushed forward.After seeing that the ball was higher than Dabao's head, he tried his best to speed up and rush back.

"Fortunately, we caught up." Yan Feng's speed was very fast, and he rushed up from behind a long distance, which made the Qatari players ignore him.

Yan Feng patted his horse and rushed there, while the ball was still flying in the air.When he reached this point, he didn't land on the ground, and the ball was waist-high, but it was not easy to head.In this case, Yan Feng did not choose to stop the ball first.Because as long as the ball is stopped, time will be lost for defensive players to make up.And with his ball-handling ability, he can't guarantee that he can unload the ball more comfortably.

Therefore, Yan Feng chose to volley.He fixed his eyes on the flying ball, and after calculating the trajectory, he swung his right foot and yanked it out.

"Boom!" Yan Feng's jerky kick just hit the ball, and the ball flew out with a loud noise.

Everyone saw that You left a white trail in the air like lightning, and the ball plunged into the net.And just after the ball bounced a few times, Qatar's goalkeeper changed from sluggish to panic.

"Is this a goal?" The fans couldn't see Yan Feng's shot at all, and they couldn't even see the flight trace of the ball.When they see that the ball is already in the goal, they realize that the ball has actually been scored.

"Ah! Going in. Really going in. Yay!! Our Chinese team scored. Wahaha! We scored!"

The entire Kunming stadium stagnated at first, and then exploded into a sea of ​​jubilant joy.

"I'm in. I'm in!" Yan Feng was going crazy with excitement.He thought he would play, even thought he would score goals.But he didn't expect that he would score a goal so quickly.And it came in with a volley he rarely used.

Teammates rushed over excitedly to celebrate with Yan Feng.The coaches and potential players on the sidelines also celebrated excitedly.

"Li, we really succeeded." Lippi was very happy.He didn't expect this substitution to work so quickly.

"Haha. That's great. Yan Feng really scored a goal." Li Tie laughed happily.Although he thought that letting Yan Feng play would bring changes to the Chinese team's offense, he really didn't expect to score so soon.

"Haha, we're going to win."

"The Chinese team must win."

At this moment, the long-awaited goal finally arrived.Not only did the Kunming Stadium become a sea of ​​joy, many fans watching the game in front of the TV cheered excitedly.

"Yan Feng, scored. He scored. Haha."

"That's right. Yan Feng is really great."

Zhou Yun, Li Xueer and others who were far away in Shenzhen hugged each other excitedly.
