Chapter 773: A Jersey Goes Down in History

Lebanese coach Rustu got Zhen Shaolong's signed jersey, he was probably happy to get the jersey, or he was convinced by the Chinese team, and when he commented on the game after the game, he left a lot of good impression on Chinese media reporters.

"We're just an amateur team."

At the press conference, Rustu's first sentence stated the situation of the Lebanese team bluntly, "We did nothing in the game, because the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, and the other side has an international superstar like Zhen Shaolong." But our players are still working hard and I believe the experience that this game brings will allow them to grow a little bit. ”

"Seven to 0, this is the difference in strength, our defensive performance is also a little poor, the players have no experience in facing a top superstar like Zhen Shaolong."

Then Rustu also talked about the influence of external factors, for example, Lebanon is worse than the Chinese team in all aspects, "We can't get as much support as the Chinese team, and even our fans support the Chinese team, because the Chinese team has Zhen Shaolong, but I don't blame them, from the perspective of the fans, our gap is too big, I think, I will also want to see Zhen Shaolong play when I stand in the stands." ”

"If we were Volkswagen, then the Chinese team would be Ferrari. We have a lot of problems in our country, including political-political ones. If the government had supported football as much as it supported basketball, I believe we would have achieved better results. ”

Rustu then continued to sell bitterly, he introduced the income of the players in the Lebanese team, "The professional players in our team earn more than the rest of the team combined, but it can't be helped, that's the difference between professional football and amateur football. I still have a lot of confidence in Lebanese football, but only if we invest more. ”

It's a fact.

There are some players in the Lebanese team who are not professional at all, they are just amateur players, they can't get a professional contract, and they have to do other jobs on weekdays to make a living.

So Lebanon's big defeat to the Chinese team is nothing.

Meantime.

This incident also explains why the Lebanese players don't want to ask for autographs and compete to exchange jerseys with Zhen Shaolong, some of them do not worship Zhen Shaolong, but Zhen Shaolong's autographs and jerseys are worth enough that the jerseys are sold well and can even top their salaries for several months.

After the press conference, the game can be said to be over, the Chinese team returned to the hotel to pack their bags and go to the airport to prepare for the next destination Vietnam, Lebanon can also continue training for the fourth round of the match against Syria, they do not need to travel long distances, the two countries are bordering each other.

However, it's not over yet.

————

When the Chinese team all set off for Vietnam, the Lebanese team broke out a little humiliating 'jersey incident', the origin of the incident was that several Lebanese players noticed the Chinese team jersey in Rustu's hand, they secretly followed, and when they were in the bus, they turned over while Rustu was not paying attention, and found that it was the 'thirteenth' on behalf of Zhen Shaolong.

Rustu is also to blame for this.

After Rustu got the jersey, he didn't put it directly in his backpack, but then put it in the closet in the locker room, and then went to the press conference, and then came back to find that his luggage was sent to the car by the translator, and he had to take the jersey to the bus.

Then, things came out.

The whole Lebanese team knew that there were players on the bus, so they quarreled with Rustu on the spot, "You let us all disperse and go and get Zhen Shaolong's jersey by yourself!" ”

"Are you using the manager's authority to do things?"

"How did you get it?"

"It's not fair!"

Rustu is the head coach of Lebanon, but in fact, Lebanon does not pay attention to football, he is only a temporary coach, the salary is very pitiful, and the players do not respect him much.

Actually, the solution is very simple --

As long as Rustu takes out the jersey and hands it to the player, he can fool around with any reason, for example, he said that Zhen Shaolong gave the jersey to Lebanon, but he didn't know who to hand it over, so he temporarily put it here for him.

But Rustu knows that he will not be in charge for long, and when the Asian Cup qualifiers are over, he will definitely step down as head coach, and the value of the jersey is still not small, he hopes to give it to his son as a birthday gift, and naturally he does not want to 'contribute' the jersey.

Then something happened.

On the same day, some players poked the matter out, and by the next morning, the whole of Lebanon and even the whole of Asia knew about it, and such an interesting thing was a very rare gossip news in football, and many European media reported it.

Lebanon is in the spotlight of the world, and Rustu is the center of attention, but he doesn't want to be that focus.

The Lebanese team was in infighting.

If it was just a matter within the team, it would be a big deal to step down as head coach early, but there are still players who are very angry and go to court to sue Rustu and use the position of head coach to seek improper benefits for themselves.

News is everywhere.

There is gossip everywhere.

After the Chinese national team came to Vietnam, the first thing they did was to pay attention to the news of their 'good rival' Lebanon, and everyone was talking about it.

The teammates said funny, "Brother Zhen, you are too good!" Broke a team with a jersey. ”

"yes, that's awesome!"

"Unprecedented! You will be recorded in the history of Lebanese football! ”

Zhen Shaolong felt very innocent, he really didn't do anything, Duisevich came to ask for the jersey, he didn't have any reason to refuse, so he signed the jersey and handed it to him.

That's all.

After the Chinese national team settled in the hotel in Hanoi, things made a new progress, Duisevic was involved, a Lebanese official called the logistics department of the Chinese team, indirectly found Duisevich, and asked Rustu for the details of the jersey.

When the break was over, Duisevich appeared in front of everyone, and it was obvious that his face was a little dark, and he was probably in a bad mood, and he felt funny when he watched the gossip, and he was depressed when he was involved in the gossip.

Zhen Shaolong's mood is okay. He was also involved in gossip, and it induced the generation of gossip, but most of the outside reports praised his influence, and perhaps it also had a certain role in promoting fame.

For example, on the street near the hotel, there are many Vietnamese fans, who are wearing Zhen Shaolong's No. 13 jersey for Real Madrid, and they must have come to chase stars.

Some also held signs that read 'Jersey Incident' that said, 'I want a piece of Zhen's autographed star too'.

Also, 'I can understand Rustu'.

Of course, there is also resistance, 'the Chinese team's jersey tactics can't defeat Vietnam'.

Zhen Shaolong's support and boycott fans are not very harmonious when they stand together, and they may even clash when they stand together, and as a result, the Hanoi police have to send a large number of people to maintain law and order in the nearby streets.

Vietnam's environment is not as friendly as Lebanon's, and some fans will support Zhen Shaolong, but from Vietnam's point of view, the Chinese team is Vietnam's opponent, which can be said to be a direct enemy, and Zhen Shaolong is the biggest threat, and as a result, the Chinese team began to suffer all kinds of difficulties.

The first is training on the pitch.

The Chinese team arrived in Vietnam very early, because there were no games during the period, so they came directly to Vietnam for more than a week of training.

On the first day, the rest lasted until the afternoon, and the whole team first went to Hanoi Stadium to get used to the environment in advance.

The afternoon sun was a little dim, and the top of the stadium was covered by a canopy, making the whole stadium look dark, and the Chinese team only planned to adapt to the environment and conduct two hours of training, but the stadium staff refused to provide lights.

'It's not formal training and we haven't been notified of the open pitch. It doesn't make sense for the stadium staff to say that, and to negotiate.

The Chinese team can only train in a somewhat dimly lit environment.

At night.

When the Chinese team finished their meal and rested, a large number of unfriendly fans appeared near the street, constantly setting off firecrackers to interfere to 'celebrate', and a loudspeaker shouted in Chinese, "We do this every day." ”

"Don't you want to get some rest!"

"Enjoy! This is our way of welcome! ”

This made both the coaching staff and the team officials feel that it was a mistake to come to Hanoi early, and that if they start training at the base in Guangdong, they can rest assured that they will have a week and that they are not too far from Vietnam.

The next day, the preparation training officially began.

The Chinese team rented a training ground on the outskirts of Hanoi, which belonged to a club in Hanoi and was closed to the outside world, which gave the team peace of mind for a few days.

In the past five days, the training of the Chinese team has gone smoothly.

In fact.

The Chinese team did not take Vietnam to heart, the strength of the main Vietnam is difficult to threaten, the Chinese team is the second time in the group stage and Vietnam, the first result is 6-1, the Chinese team ushered in a big victory at home, with a sharp offensive completely broke down the Vietnamese defense, Hao Lin also completed a hat trick in the game.

Now that it has been changed to an away game, it will definitely be difficult to play, but Zhen Shaolong's return is a booster.

The training of the Chinese team mainly revolves around the problems encountered, and the most obvious thing in the previous games is that the team's ball control ability is not strong, and there is a fault line in the connection between the midfield and the forward, and the training is also aimed at these two points.

First, there's basically nothing to do.

A team's ability to control the ball is directly linked to the technical ability of the players, and the overall ability to play is stable, and the ability to control the ball can definitely be stronger.

The second point is the tactical problem of the midfield, it can be said that the players do not execute the tactics very well.

The coaching staff has carried out continuous training for this point, and it is difficult to say the specific improvement, but because the players are very combative and actively cooperate with Zhen Shaolong, the training feels like a lot of improvement.

Five days later.

When the Chinese team was training, they encountered a little trouble, a large number of Vietnamese fans with the slogan of 'supporting Zhen Shaolong' actually rushed into the periphery of the training base, but the stadium security could not stop them.

At that time, the Chinese team was in the process of training, and hurriedly let everyone leave for safety reasons.

The impact of this incident is very large.

Although the fans seem to be chasing stars, it is definitely not as simple as chasing stars, some fans even injured security personnel, mixed with violent factors, it may be to intimidate the Chinese team.
