Chapter 18: The Football Association's Huge Bonus Beep! The referee couldn't bear to watch it anymore. He stopped the game and judged that the Chinese national youth team had committed a foul, finally saving Messi from the dire situation. Messi was in tears, as if he had suffered a great humiliation and wanted to die. The two attacking midfielders of the opposing team actually used the same tactics of using defenders to target forwards against themselves. It was such a shame and humiliation! After getting up from the ground, Messi subconsciously stayed away from Lin Feng and Zhou Haibin, the two old men. He doesn't want to experience the taste of roujiamo again. Fortunately, there was not much time left in the first half, and the referee quickly blew the whistle to end the first half. Although Argentina was leading in the score, there was no smile on the face of their core player Messi. On the contrary, the National Youth Team, although clearly behind in the score, the players were talking and laughing, as if they were the ones leading.
"Haha, these young players of the national youth team have maintained a good mentality. Facing a top team like Argentina, the first thing we need to do is to maintain a good mentality and not get confused." When the camera on the scene captured this scene, Huang Jianxiang was afraid that someone would criticize the young players of the national youth team for this, so he quickly explained a few words like a protective child. He was overthinking this. The fans were very tolerant of this young team that kept creating miracles and bringing surprises to the fans: "Haha, these guys have such a good mentality. It would be great if the Chinese national football team players could have such a good mentality." "Come on, those unreliable guys in the Chinese national football team. We are clearly superior in strength in many cases, but they always can't stand the pressure and fail at the last moment." “The national football team never disappoints when it comes to disappointing people!” "It's good for the national youth team. Just keep a good attitude, don't put too much pressure on yourself, play well in the second half, I think there is still a chance to reverse Argentina!" "That's right. The first half of the game proved that the gap in strength between us and Argentina is not as big as we imagined, and the opponent's core players obviously have physical problems. There is great hope in the second half!" Although the team was behind in the score, everyone could see that in the last few minutes of the first half, Messi seemed unable to run anymore. If Argentina is without Messi, their offensive threat will be greatly reduced, and it will be the turn of the national youth team to counterattack in the second half. In the national youth team's locker room, Krauchen first praised the players' performance in the first half. Especially affirmation of their successful defense of Messi. If the players had not exercised their subjective initiative and greatly consumed Messi's physical energy, causing his number of attempts to break through to drop significantly, the National Youth Team would probably have lost more goals in the first half. But in the second half, the National Youth Team will focus on offense. "Lin Feng, you performed very well in the first half and I am proud of you, but your performance must have alerted the Argentine team. In the second half, if nothing unexpected happens, they will place a player next to you to mark you, trying everything to slow you down and not give you a chance to rush. In this case, what do you think you should do? " Krauchen stared at Lin Feng with sharp eyes, waiting for his answer. Lin Feng thought about what Kaka would do in this situation. "If the opponent really does this, I will try to get rid of him. If I can't get rid of him, I will change to a no-ball style of play, using my running position to pull and contain the opponent's defense as much as possible, creating offensive opportunities for my teammates."
Krauchen nodded approvingly and was very satisfied with Lin Feng's answer. The National Youth Team is driven by two cores. Even if Lin Feng is frozen, Chen Tao can still lead the team to attack. The tactics he explained next were almost all about how the team should launch an attack after Lin Feng was frozen. "Chen Tao, Zhou Haibin, if the opponent really devotes a lot of energy to defending Lin Feng in the second half. The pressure on both of you will be greatly reduced, especially for Zhou Haibin, who is in your position. So in the second half, I need both of you to step up and lead the team’s offense.” After hearing the head coach's arrangements, Chen Tao and Zhou Haibin nodded heavily. Zhou Haibin is from Shandong Luneng. Although he is not as famous as Chen Tao, his strength is not weak at all. He became famous at a young age. Not only did he play in the Luneng first team early, but he was also recruited into the national team by the national team coach Ali Han in 2003, becoming the youngest international player in the history of the national football team. To become the youngest international player in history, Zhou Haibin must have some skills. He has a very broad vision, excellent footwork, outstanding organizational skills, and an excellent long-range shooting ability. Moreover, he is strong, energetic, and has good physical confrontation ability. He performs well on both offense and defense and is a hexagonal warrior. "I will replace Dong Fangzhuo in the second half. Dong, when you come on the court, you must use your physical fitness and confrontation ability to actively grab the ball and shoot when you get it. Don't think too much..." After Krauchen finished speaking, someone pushed open the door of the locker room. Everyone's attention was drawn over there. After seeing who the person was, Klauchen frowned slightly. The person who came was none other than the national youth team leader Li Feiyu. Li Feiyu put the box in his hand on the bench in the locker room. "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!" He raised his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet. "The leaders of the Football Association are very satisfied with our achievements in this World Youth Championship. In order to motivate everyone to create more glories, they have specially approved a bonus. As long as you can win this game, everyone, including the coaching staff, logistics staff, etc., will receive a bonus ranging from 5000 to 10000 yuan! " As he spoke, he opened the box he had brought in. Everyone's attention in the locker room was drawn to the contents of the box. In this box, there are dozens of bundles of hundred-dollar bills neatly arranged. After seeing the money in the box and hearing that the money was prepared as a reward for them, except for a few people, the remaining players' eyes lit up and they stared with their eyes wide open. In this era when the average national salary is only 1500 yuan, a bonus of 5000 yuan is really a lot. What's more, the players will definitely not get the lowest bonus, they are very likely to get the 10000 yuan bonus. For these young players who have only been in the first team for a few years and have little money in their pockets, it is still very attractive. What's more, this is an unexpected fortune.
As we all know, players do not receive any salary when they participate in national team competitions. The women's football team can get more subsidies because of the support policy of the Football Association, but the men's football team sometimes doesn't even get any subsidies. Even if there are subsidies, the amount is pitifully small. The daily training allowance for the national football team players is around 80-100 yuan, and that for the national youth team is even less, less than 50 yuan. A bonus of 10000 yuan is almost equivalent to several years of training allowance, which is really not a small amount. Seeing that the bonus in his hand successfully mobilized the enthusiasm of the players, Li Feiyu nodded with satisfaction, and then dropped another bombshell: "In addition to today's bonus, if you can win the World Youth Championship, the Football Association will issue a one-time bonus of 300 million. At that time, each main player and main substitute can get a bonus ranging from 10 to 8. Even the substitute can get a bonus of 5." As soon as the news was announced, it immediately caused an uproar among the players. The players stared with wide eyes, trying to digest the shocking news. This bonus is much more than the previous one, and it is even higher than the annual salary of many people in the club. I'm afraid that even the prize money for the Asian Cup championship trophy may not be able to catch up with this number? From the amount of this bonus, it can be seen that the Football Association really attaches great importance to the results of this World Youth Championship. There will always be brave men when there is a big reward, and the morale of the national youth team is already very high. At this time, they were stimulated by money again, and they all screamed as if they were given an injection of chicken blood. I can't wait to rush onto the field and eat the Argentine on the opposite side alive. However, in such a jubilant atmosphere, a trace of worry appeared on the brows of the national youth team coach Krauchen. (End of this chapter)
