Zheng Zhi's statement, even Horton thought it was impeccable, thinking that he had relieved the pressure on the team in the first place.

At the post-match press conference, Horton praised Zheng Zhi by name.

'It's a draw, but I'm satisfied. Because we gained a lot in the draw. ”

"I heard that the Chinese team has always been afraid to play the Korean team, but we showed enough determination today and almost won the game."

"Obviously, Zheng played a very important role in that, and there were a lot of people who questioned me before the game about letting Zheng start, but it was Zheng who brought the team together. I can say responsibly that this is exactly what the national team lacks. ”

call

There was an uproar.

How obvious is Horton's meaning, that is, the national team does not have a player like Zheng Zhi, but the national Olympic team has!

"Mr. Houghton, what do you mean by this, are you ready to recruit Zheng Zhi into the national team?" The astute journalist immediately thought of this question.

"If nothing else, after playing the Asian Youth Championship, he will enter the national team to participate in the Asian Games."

Wow!

There was another uproar.

Horton dotes on Zheng Zhi so much that he announced directly at a press conference that he was going to call Zheng Zhi into the national team, which has never happened in the history of Chinese football.

"Such a genius should perform on the highest stage."

※※※※

At the same time, a glint flashed in the eyes of Zheng Zhi, who was watching live TV in the locker room.

"Zheng Zhi, what is the coach talking about?"

This is Vietnam, and everyone can't understand Vietnamese or English, so they have to ask Zheng Zhi to be the translator.

He said......"

Zheng Zhi smiled indifferently.

"He's going to recruit me for the national team."

"Oh!"

"Awesome."

"You are soaring, and you have determined the core position of the midfield of the National Olympic Games and the national team in one battle!"

His friend Zhao Junzhe slapped his big hand on his shoulder.

"It's not over yet, he also said that the Asian Games will also be dominated by national Olympic players, and most people can go."

"Well, then I might have a chance."

Zhao Junzhe's eyes also lit up, he was also half of the main force of the National Olympic Games, and he was happy to catch the last train.

"Brother Feng?"

Zheng Zhi glanced at Li Weifeng, who had been sitting in the corner.

Li Weifeng raised his head, as if he had not completely regained his composure.

"The coach just said that as a defender, he has performed well a hundred times and then he has only been criticized for one mistake, which is quite unfair, he thinks you are doing very well and he is very optimistic about your future."

"Did he say that?"

Li Weifeng was finally moved.

"yes, I heard you right."

"Thank you."

Being able to have the support of his coach and teammates is the greatest affirmation for him. He thought that he would be drowned by spittle stars after the game, but he didn't expect Zheng Zhi and the head coach to support him, which made him very moved.

The next day, the domestic sports media reported on the game in detail.

Sports Weekly reported the game with headlines and an exaggerated subheadline – The First Fight Discovers the Heart of Midfield for the Next Decade!

"Football" newspaper - Zheng Zhi shined in the Dunhill Cup football match, he conquered everyone with a gorgeous and perfect performance, and even the coach of the South Korean Olympic Games, Xu Dingmao, thought Zheng Zhi was very good.

On the CCBV5 channel, Huang Jianxiang, another host of the football program, talked eloquently: "I think a talented player like Zheng Zhi should go to Europe as soon as possible, this is the best age to go abroad." ”

"He's obviously better than everyone else, I think he has a high ball quotient, and I'm likening an eighteen-year-old kid to have eighty-year-old experience and experience, which is incredible."

"After watching Zheng Zhi's performance, do fans and friends who often watch Serie A live broadcasts think of some players in Serie A?"

"Albertini?"

"Isn't the style of the ball a bit similar?"

"Even a little bit of Zidane? Of course, I'm not saying that Zheng Zhi's level has reached their level, I'm talking about the style of play, the style. ”

"And the way you pass, the vision, the timing, ......"

"In short, I think Zheng Zhi is a pretty good player and he should go to Europe as soon as possible."

After Huang Jianxiang's blow, Zheng Zhi's reputation in China is even higher.

The key is that Huang Jianxiang actually compared Albertini and Zidane, which seems to be a bit grandiose and blows it over......

However, there are also media reports on Zheng Zhi from South Korea, and the voice from his opponent is worth noting.

South Korea's Chosun Ilbo, of course, was unhappy with the draw, and they seriously criticized the South Korean Olympic team, and the language was very exaggerated - 22 South Korean players are not as good as one Jung Zhi! Zheng Zhi single-handedly beat the entire South Korean Olympic team.

- This group of national Olympic players has no characteristics, and it seems that they are more suitable for college, like Park Ji-sung and others, how the hell got into the national Olympic team.

The Chosun Ilbo newspaper was positive about Chung Chi, adding that if South Korea could have a player like Chung Chi, they could easily score five goals in a game......

Of course, the Dunhill Cup is a small event after all, and it is not very famous, and Zheng Zhi's fame cannot really have any impact in Asia.

But in the eyes of the next opponent, Zheng Zhi has attracted enough attention from them.

"This guy's style of play is quite European,"

"I even think he can be the core of a mid-to-bottom team in the big five leagues."

"I wonder if my old friend is interested in him?"

After watching the match between the Chinese Olympic Games and the South Korean Olympic Games, the Bulgarian U22 coach also looked at Zheng Zhi differently.

However, his first reaction was not to think about how to deal with Zheng Zhi, but to think of his good friend.

His good friend is a European scout, who likes to dig up little-known players the most, and now he wants to recommend Zheng Zhi.

Just do it, and when he returned to his hotel room, he grabbed the phone and called.

"Hey man, I've got a player here, you're going to be interested."

He said a lot in one go.

……

"Asian games, Asian players? Please, no kidding, I don't want to waste money on my ticket. We are not the stupid X of Perugia, and we will actually buy Hidetoshi Nakata! ”

Hidetoshi Nakata did join Perugia in the summer of '98, and it was really awesome after that......

"South America!"

"South America is our paradise."

"But thank you, old man."

……

"Are you sure you don't want to come and see it? You'll regret it. ”

"Oh! Come on! Do you know who I'm looking at? A guy named Ronaldinho! God, he's gorgeous, I've never seen such an elf! ”

"I won't say anything, bye."

Doodoo Doodoo......

Hanging up the phone, the Bulgarian U22 coach was quite depressed.

What happened to Asian players? Can't there be a football superstar?

He shook his head, feeling that his old friend was too one-sided......
