Chapter 128 Commendation from the General Administration Leader "The Chinese team defeated the Japanese team 7:0!" 《Epic victory, the Chinese national football team broke the record for the biggest score against the Japanese team! 》 "After the humiliating defeat, senior officials of the Japanese Football Association bowed and apologized, and resigned!" "With a big win over Japan's No. 1 team, the Chinese team is regaining its position as the dominant team in Asia!" "Lin Feng scored a hat trick, Gao Lin scored twice, the young players of the National Youth Team dominated the game!" 《The most promising generation? The 85 super platinum generation is unstoppable! 》 "Targeting the Olympics, this may be the most promising national Olympic team!" …… After the game, major domestic media rushed to report on the match.
Since the match was held in China and the two sides were China and Japan, and the score difference was so huge, the result of the match swept the country in the first place. Whether you watch football or not, everyone saw this news. However, when most people see this news, their first reaction is not to believe it, but to question it: "Is this true? Can the Chinese team beat Japan 7:0?" "Could it be that the names are mixed up? It should be Japan 7:0 China, right?" "That's right. My impression is that the Chinese football team has always been defeated by the Japanese. How is it possible that they can win by so many points?" The impression left by the Chinese national football team in recent years is not very good. They lost the Asian Cup final and were eliminated in the World Cup qualifiers... With one defeat after another, the Chinese people gradually lost confidence in Chinese football. It is understandable that one would suspect that this explosive news is fake when one suddenly sees it. However, when the CCTV News Channel reported the result of the game in the 22: evening news, the outside world's doubts finally disappeared. People then began to accept that the Chinese team really handed the Japanese team a 7:0 tragedy at their home court! As for the real fans, they were already going crazy with joy before the game even ended: "7:0! Oh my god, I couldn't even imagine this score in my dreams!" "Yeah, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it even if I was beaten to death!" "We finally got our revenge last year. The Japanese humiliated us with a handball, and we gave them a 7:0 defeat. It's fair!" For many fans who experienced the 2004 Asian Cup final, this game is equivalent to a revenge battle for the Chinese national football team. And in such an important occasion, the Chinese national football team delivered a perfect answer that no one had expected before the game. It greatly exceeded the fans' expectations and made them feel extremely satisfied! "Haha, including the previous East Asian Cup, we have won two consecutive games against the Japanese team. There is no need to have Japanophobia anymore!" "Hehe, if we beat the Korean team tomorrow, we will have won two games in a row against the Korean team. By then, our Koreaphobia will be completely thrown into the trash can!" "Guys, don't be too arrogant, the adult teams of Japan and South Korea are still better than us!" "But our advantage lies in the youth team, especially Lin Feng and the 85th generation of players!"
"That's right. When Lin Feng, Chen Tao and others grow up, the strength of the Chinese national football team will surely improve by leaps and bounds. By then, we may be able to catch up with Japan and South Korea!" Since winning the World Youth Championship, fans across the country have placed high hopes on Lin Feng and his super platinum generation. Lin Feng and his team did not disappoint the fans' expectations. Their championship in the East Asian Cup and their outstanding performance in this East Asian Games proved their strength and huge potential. Considering that many of them are still studying abroad and have not returned, this team is not their final mentality at the moment. After two and a half years, they have accumulated rich competition experience in the five major leagues and received high-level training, and then all members returned to form a new National Olympic Team. Just thinking about how strong that national Olympic team will be makes us excited! The fans can't wait to fly to 2008 and to the capital to watch the National Olympic Team compete with the young talents from the world's major football powers. In the past, the National Olympic Team had no chance to enter the Olympics, and even if they did, they would just accompany the prince to study. But this time, the situation may be completely different. This national Olympic team may become the favorite to win the championship and help Chinese football achieve a historic breakthrough in the Olympics. Seeing how well the players of the quasi-national Olympic team performed in the East Asian Games, the leaders of the Olympic Committee sent a special telegram to express their condolences and commendations to the players and coaching team, and encouraged them to keep up the good work and achieve better results. This award made the entire Chinese national football team feel very excited. Since the 08 Olympic Games was the first Olympic Games held in the country, the whole country attached great importance to it. The positions and levels of the members of this IOC are very high, especially the director of the IOC, who is also the director of the General Administration of Sports. Getting his attention is a rare opportunity for the Chinese national football team, especially for this group of young players. "Brothers, play well in the next game and strive to win the championship!" Lin Feng gathered Chen Tao, Gao Lin and others and said to them seriously: "Only in this way can we have the confidence to argue with the Football Association after the game and push Coach Krauchen to the position of head coach of the National Olympic Team!" This big victory over the Japanese team only brought them the attention of the leaders of the General Administration, but it was not enough. They also need to perform better so that the leaders of the General Administration will always remember them. Countless experiences have proved that it is really useful to become familiar to the leaders. This national team is composed entirely of young players, and is the prototype of the future national Olympic team. If they can defeat top Asian teams such as Japan and South Korea in a row and win the championship, it will be enough to prove their strength. In this way, the leaders of the IOC will have higher expectations for their achievements in the Olympics and will provide special care in certain aspects. With the care of the leaders of the General Administration, some things become much easier to handle. This national Olympic team really has the potential to make a breakthrough at the Olympics, and any breakthrough will be a boost to China's football career and a real political achievement. If the National Olympic Team really wins the championship at the Beijing Olympics, the value of this championship will probably exceed that of all other events! Even if the National Olympic Team fails to win the Olympics in the end, reaching the semi-finals or even the quarter-finals can be considered a success for Chinese football. After all, compared to many unpopular sports, football is the world's largest sport. The bigger the audience, the bigger the impact! Previously, because the Chinese national football team was in a hopeless situation, the higher-ups did not dare to invest in it.
But once the Chinese national football team really shows its ability to achieve good results, the higher-ups will definitely not tolerate any chaos from a certain association. Good players need to be paired with good coaches so that they don't fall behind. In this case, the probability of Krauchen, who has better team performance and higher coaching level, becoming the head coach of the National Olympic Team has greatly increased. After all, compared with those local coaches who only listen to the Football Association but have no real results, Krauchen's coaching resume is much more impressive! Everyone knew the importance of this game, so after hearing Lin Feng's instructions, they all nodded. Gao Lin patted his chest heavily and said shamelessly: "Brother Lin, don't worry. I promise to score three more goals in the next game and teach Xiao Xiba a lesson!" Feng Xiaoting, who was standing by, noticed that Gao Lin's words were not right and asked curiously: "Eh? Big Head, when have you ever scored three goals? Didn't you score two in the last game?" "Hey, everyone has to improve, especially a slow-start striker like me. I wasn't in the best condition before. I will go all out in the next game!" Gao Lin didn't care at all that his bragging was exposed, his shamelessness was unmatched. Everyone looked at him with an expression that said, "Just keep blowing it." …… The schedule of the East Asian Games is very tight, and the Chinese national football team only has one night of rest after the match with the Japanese team. On November 11th, the final will begin. In another semifinal, the South Korean team defeated the North Korean team 2:1 and advanced to the final. They will be China's opponents today. This is the first time in 3 months that China and South Korea meet on the field again. But the difference is that the Chinese team is playing at home this time, and the Koreans can't use any tricks. The final was scheduled for 6pm, and the th happened to be a weekend, so a large number of fans came from all over the country to watch the game. The number of local fans in Macau is relatively small. In the last game, there were probably only 2 to 3 Macau fans who came to the scene, which is less than one-fifth of the domestic fans! But the situation this time was obviously different, with more than 5000 Macau fans coming to the scene. Obviously, they were all stimulated by the last game and attracted by this Chinese team. It can be seen that winning can really boost the ball market. If the football market is not good, it is either because the games are too ugly or the team has a poor record. The previous situation of the Chinese national football team just met these two points. They played ugly and always lost, so the fans gradually stopped watching the games. But the base of Chinese fans is huge. Although every year many fans are heartbroken by the Chinese national team's disastrous defeats and no longer pay attention to the team, there are still many new fans joining in and repeating the above process. During this process, as long as the Chinese national football team can stand up for once, play a few good games, and stop the downward trend with a few victories, it will be possible to retain these new fans and even bring back old fans who once paid attention to the national football team. And this is what Lin Feng and his team are doing now! …… Before the finals began, the battle for third place began first. The Japanese team, which had been brutally slaughtered by the Chinese national football team the day before, suddenly exploded today. They defeated the North Korean team with a score of 4:1, venting the humiliation they suffered at the hands of the Chinese team. The North Korean team was in a really miserable situation. Yesterday they had a fierce battle with their brothers in the south and both sides suffered heavy losses. Before they could recover, they encountered the angry Japanese team.
The strength of the North Korean team was originally at the bottom among the four strongest teams in East Asia. When they encountered the Japanese team, which was stronger than themselves and full of anger, they naturally couldn't beat them. Keisuke Honda, who was shut out by the Chinese team in the last game, once again became the key man for the Japanese team in this game. He scored two goals and provided an assist in the game, performing very well. It’s a pity that with the existence of the monster Lin Feng, even with such an outstanding performance by Honda Keisuke, it is difficult to get praise from the outside world. There are even many media criticizing him for only being able to bully weak teams and being weak when facing strong teams. This hurt Honda Keisuke very much, and he could only secretly swear in his heart that he must surpass Lin Feng in the future and wash away the shame of today. But no one cares about Honda Keisuke's thoughts anymore, everyone's attention is focused on the final of this East Asian Games! "This Korean team is much stronger than the Japanese team!" Before the game, in the team's locker room, Zhu Guanghu gave the final pre-match mobilization to the players. "Especially be careful of their striker Park Joo-young. Although he is only 20 years old, he has scored 11 goals in 10 games in this year's K-League. His goal efficiency is extremely high and he has the potential to become a top striker!" Zhu Guanghu's expression was very serious. Honda Keisuke was very strong, but he was only strong in this East Asian Games. But this killer of the South Korean team is already very powerful in the league. If China's defense line fails to remain vigilant against him, it is likely to suffer a heavy loss. Like Lin Feng, Park Joo-young is also a player who became famous at a young age. He rose to fame in last year's Asian Youth Championship and was then promoted to the first team by Seoul FC. When he first joined the first team, his performance was explosive. He scored 11 goals in 10 appearances, which shocked the Korean media. They all thought that Korea was about to have another world-class star like Cha Bum-kun. His agent also began to actively work for him, wanting to get him to the top five leagues and completely replicate the path of Cha Bum-kun and his Korean football predecessors. It is said that a wealthy club in Ligue 1 has shown interest in him after watching his video tape and wants to sign him. Although it is uncertain whether he can secure a place as a starter after joining the top five leagues, the fact that he has been recognized by top teams undoubtedly proves that he has the strength to play in the top five leagues. Therefore, after receiving the coach's reminder, everyone nodded and paid great attention to this name. "But there is no need to worry too much. The South Korean team only has one Park Ju-young. We have Lin Feng, Chen Tao, Gao Lin and Feng Xiaoting. They are all real players from the top five leagues. On paper, we are not inferior to them, and may even be better!" Zhu Guanghu was very happy to see that the players had listened to his advice, so he relieved the pressure on everyone and used the examples of Lin Feng and others to boost their morale. This move was very effective. When the young players on the team thought of Lin Feng fighting alongside them, they felt like they had found a backbone. They immediately felt safe and were no longer panicked. Lin Feng looked at Zhu Guanghu helplessly. Old Zhu was getting better and better at pulling himself up by his own booty. …… After the final mobilization, the players from both sides entered the player tunnel to prepare for the game. Lin Feng stood in the queue with a calm expression, not looking around. But there were several eyes on him from the South Korean team. After Lin Feng felt the other party's gaze, he glanced around. The Koreans who were staring at him looked like a thief who was discovered. They all withdrew their gazes and dared not make eye contact with him.
There was only one Korean player who was over meters tall and had dyed yellow hair who was still staring at him unscrupulously. Lin Feng had read the South Korean team's information and recognized the opponent as Park Joo-young, the team's main striker. Seeing Lin Feng looking at him, Park Zhouyong sneered and was about to make a provocative move, but unexpectedly, Lin Feng's gaze did not linger on him for too long and quickly moved away. This made Park Joo-young feel like he was punching cotton. What made him even more uncomfortable was that the other party looked at him no differently than they looked at other Korean players. In other words, in the other party's mind, he is just an ordinary person! This made Park Zhouyong, who had been enjoying the flattery of the Korean media and fans, extremely depressed. He clenched his fists tightly and stared at Lin Feng's back. Just wait, until I defeat you in the arena with my own hands and reappear in front of you as a winner, I will see if you can still continue to ignore me! “It’s really a bit difficult!” Park Joo-young thought that Lin Feng looked down on him, but in fact, after Lin Feng took a glance at the Korean team's lineup, he felt that something was wrong. The lineup of this South Korean team is even stronger than he imagined. In addition to players like Park Ju-young, the team also includes Zheng Chenglong, Lee Chung-yong, Lee Keun-ho, Ha Dae-sung, Kim Chang-soo and many other future main international players of the South Korean team. Many of these people will start studying abroad in the future, and many have also won honors such as Asian Footballer of the Year. Their strength should not be underestimated. In addition, the South Korean team's style of play naturally restrains the Chinese team, so it is really not easy to play against them. It seems that we need to take today's game a little more seriously! …… "Set up the stage, set up the stage!" "You are now watching the 4th East Asian Games, the men's football final, the match between China and South Korea..." In the CCTV studio, after the two commentators Huang Jianxiang and Zhang Lu finished their opening remarks, they began to chat. "Mr. Huang, which team do you think will win this game?" "Haha, of course it's the Chinese team!" After Huang Jianxiang finished answering, he turned to look at Zhang Lu and asked: "Coach Zhang, who do you think will win?" Zhang Lu smiled and said: "Like you, I am also optimistic about the Chinese team winning the championship. The reason is not only because this is a game held in our home country and we have the advantage of home court, but also because of a player on the field!" "Oh? Which player?" Huang Jianxiang made a curious expression. "Lin Feng!" Zhang Lu said confidently: "With him in the game, the Chinese team has never lost. He is the lucky star of the Chinese team!" "Haha, that makes sense!" Huang Jianxiang laughed out loud, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true. Although Lin Feng only participated in six national team games, the Chinese national team remained undefeated in these six games.
Especially when playing against Asian teams, except for the match against South Korea which was a little difficult due to the opponent's off-the-board tactics, the rest of the games were very easy. After he joined the national football team, the Chinese team seemed to have found the secret to winning. They changed their previous bad luck of losing battles and began to turn their luck around. They can even compete with top European teams in friendly matches. This is something I never dared to think of before! I don’t know whether the Chinese national football team and Lin Feng can continue their previous good luck in this game. Amid the deafening cheers and applause of the fans on the scene, the final of the 4th East Asian Games began! (End of this chapter)
