Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 518 La Liga Vacation
A world-focused battle for the top spot is over.Let’s say it’s a big fight, no matter the process or the result of the whole game, it’s not a big fight at all compared with the one between Granada and Real Madrid.

There is no dazzling confrontation, no breath-taking intensity, and no large number of goals that make people watch.It is said that it is a big war, except for the meaning of victory and defeat, it doesn't look like it in any way.

After the game, this game was the same as the previous focus battles, which attracted countless people to discuss the game.Only this time, there were no more arguments as before.People were talking more about: "Messi is awesome!" and "Barcelona really needs to start rebuilding."

This game also proved Messi's greatness once again.He does not have a World Cup title, and he may not be acclimatized in the national team for the rest of his life.Messi in Barcelona is always perfect.

With Messi, Barcelona is a championship contender.

It's just that Messi will grow old one day.

It is foreseeable that after Messi gets old, the Barcelona team is bound to be silent for a while.This began to become the consensus of all.

Of course, before that, the Barcelona team was somewhat competitive.The final result of this game is the best proof.

This battle for the top spot ended with a handshake.Although it proved Messi's greatness, it also allowed Barcelona to continue to occupy the top position in La Liga.However, everyone feels that the prospects and future of the Barcelona team are very bleak.

There is no success, no new stars emerge, and only the old generation of people are supporting them.Even if it is now at the top of the list, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a house made of sand, which is not solid.

"Compared to the Granada team whose average age is only 23.3 years old, the Barcelona team whose average age is almost 30 years old is really too old."

"Even Messi is over 30 years old. When he is old too, who can the Barcelona team rely on?"

"Don't say compared with the young Granada team, it is compared with the Real Madrid team. The structure of the old and young teams in the Real Madrid team is more reasonable."

"In this game, Granada's youth, vigor and vitality, everything looks full of hope."

"The future belongs to Granada!"

The future belongs to Granada!This sentence became the most spoken word by the outside world after the game.

This sentence, the soldiers of the Granada team also have similar feelings.This makes them more confident and full of hope for the future.It's just that it's a pity that they failed to win the Barcelona team at home and reach the top of the list.

Yan Feng felt it was a pity, and at the same time maintained a respect for Messi as a great player.Another point is that Yan Feng really felt that the era of the dream team has really passed, and it will never return.

"The future belongs to us, and it won't be long!"

With this belief, Yan Feng started a vacation of up to half a month.

Of course, this holiday only belongs to La Liga.For Yan Feng, it is naturally impossible to have such a long vacation.After spending a fairly lively Christmas with the team, he set off to return home.There is another training camp for the national team.

Unlike La Liga, which has only half of the schedule, the Chinese Super League has ended the 18th season of the league at this time.Even the AFC Champions League final is over.

The Chinese Super League championship, which has been over for a while, was once again won with the Evergrande team.And after the young coach Cannavaro returned, they lifted the AFC Champions Trophy for the third time.

In such a situation where all Chinese football events have ended for a period of time, it is still necessary for the national team to recruit players for training.

Back in China, Yan Feng soon went to the national team to report.

Although there are not as many young players recruited by Lippi this time, the overall age group is still relatively young.There are only five old international players over 25 years old, and Yan Feng is among them.

The main structure of the national team is based on players aged 23 to 25. These people have also been trained by the U23 policy of the Super League in the past two years.Of course, there are also many players around 20.

Looking at the oldest Feng Xiaoting, Wu Lei, Wu Xi, and Yan Junling, Yan Feng suddenly felt old again.

In the current national team, even players like Liao Lisheng have become Mesozoic.

Looking at Liu Yiming, Deng Hanwen, Micro Motion, He Chao, Wei Shihao, Guo Tianyu and Liu Ruofan and other new-generation players, Yan Feng couldn't help but smiled and said to Feng Xiaoting: "Brother Ting, should I change my name to you?" Old Feng, and I will be Lao Yan from now on. Hehe."

"That's right. You've become old and strict too. Haha." Feng Xiaoting said with a big laugh.

But at this time, Lin Fan also came over and interjected. "Then don't I become Lao Lin?"

"Um~"

"``````"

Yan Feng and Feng Xiaoting looked at each other speechlessly, and then they remembered that the Lin Fan in front of them and the little Zhang Yuning in the distance seemed to be less than 22 years old.It's just that these two people ignored it because they were regulars of the national team.

"Should I retire?" Feng Xiaoting asked hesitantly.

"It seems that I'm about the same." Yan Feng nodded.

"Haha``````" Although what they said made people feel sad, the two soon laughed happily.

Looking at the current national team, Yan Feng felt more and more happy.Young represents the future, represents a stronger Chinese team, and represents that he can lead the Chinese team to create more brilliance in his lifetime.

Returning to China this time and returning to the national team, Yan Feng heard almost all good news about Chinese football.

Since the Chinese team entered the World Cup again and achieved such amazing results, the land of China has once again fallen into the football frenzy of 20 years ago.

Countless young talents, young people with higher talents and excellent cultural achievements have entered the football youth training camp.The happiest news that Yan Feng heard after returning to the national team is that the number of young registered players in China has exceeded 100 million.This is the root of the rise of a national football team.This is the cornerstone for Chinese football to truly take off in the world football in the future.

With such a large population in China, there are countless people with football talents.When the basic football population exceeds one million, those talents who stand out will be the top in the world.The era of Japanese and Korean football will pass like basketball.After that is the era of China.

With such a happy mood, Yan Feng ended the national team training after playing a friendly match with the Australian team.

And the time has thus entered 19 years.After leaving the national team, Yan Feng has not yet had to return to the Granada team.He still has a few days to visit relatives and friends.

Speaking of visiting relatives and friends, Yan Feng naturally went to Shenzhen.Basically all the people he cares about are there.Visiting sister-in-law, visiting the old friends of Dadi and the Shenzhen team, visiting the employees of Clover, etc., he still has a lot of people to get together.

And when it comes to getting together, naturally there is nothing more than Li Xueer and others.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, this time Zhou Yun stayed in the United States and did not come back.Ever since, Yan Feng was allowed to meet Li Xueer's parents by Li Xueer's brother, Li Sikai who now claimed to be his future brother-in-law.

Li's father and Li's mother, who once didn't take Yan Feng seriously, now meet again after many years, smiling like flowers.Then the guy on the left is a good guy, and the one on the right is my Xueer who has vision.

Went to meet Li Xueer's parents, this time the attitude of the parents was surprisingly good.Li Xueer's family was very enthusiastic in all aspects, and Yan Feng readily accepted it.You know, this kind of situation was what he longed for back then.

It is said that back then, Li Xueer's family, especially her Li Sikai, loved her old classmate Liu Qingshan the most.Now, it is said that his company in Shenzhen was sent to prison for smuggling.Thinking of Liu Qingshan's words and deeds back then, Yan Feng really felt that the current situation was erratic.

Seeing the parents again, Yan Feng found himself favored.Everything was going well, but when Li Xueer's parents asked when they were going to start a family, he couldn't answer for a while.

Under Li Xueer's maneuvering, Yan Feng temporarily avoided this problem and ended the meeting with the parents.

Although Li Xueer helped him avoid their parents' questions when he met his parents this time, he could still tell from Li Xueer's eyes that she was also waiting for the answer.

There are some things that Yan Feng has no answer in a short time.

During the few days in Shenzhen, I experienced a lot of things, not just these.It's just that for Yan Feng, some things can't be dealt with now, or they can only be left to time.

During this period, an extremely important thing was discovered.However, this is for Lin Fan.He is a father.After returning home from the national team training camp, Xiao Wei gave birth to a big fat boy for him.

Lin Fan, who was less than 22 years old, became a father, Yan Feng looked at this guy who was so happy that he was dizzy, and he fell into deep thought.

Once a person enters adulthood, time flies by quickly.In a blink of an eye, the La Liga vacation is coming to an end.Yan Feng boarded the plane back to Granada with Lin Fan who was reluctant to part with his wife and children.
