Chapter 1014 Football Colonial Era
Yang Huan arrived in Japan a day earlier than the Southampton team, and Horikita Maki came to pick him up from the plane. ┢╪┝═┝┠┡. [<.
But he didn't go to Hokkaido to soak in the hot springs and have a mixed bath, as he said. Instead, he went directly to Osaka and watched the match between Yangcheng Hengda and the Mexican American team in Osaka.
Judging from the course of the game, the two sides were really evenly matched.
Although the Mexican American team scored the first goal, Yangcheng Hengda scored two consecutive goals in the last ten minutes, tenaciously reversed the Mexican American team, and successfully advanced to the next round.
Especially the lore of the last goal is really admirable.
It can be seen that this team has such an aura. In the past few years, the money has not been wasted.
However, whether it is Yangcheng Hengda or Mexico America, they want to compete with a super strong team like Southampton, but it is not enough for the time being. The gap between the two sides is directly reflected in the team's value.
The total value of Southampton is twenty times that of Yangcheng Hengda.
Although the worth may not be able to reflect the strength, but at least it can show that there is an irreparable gap between the two teams.
After all, the Club World Cup is still the same as the previous Toyota Cup. It really has a higher level of strength, that is, the European champion and the South American champion.
But judging from the scene, Yang Huan can also see the progress of Yangcheng Hengda.
At the very least, the overall look has some rules, the players have a clear idea of how to play on the court, coupled with strong foreign aid, so the overall strength looks pretty good.
It should be said that these have made people see joyful changes.
Originally, Chinese football lagged behind Europe, even South American teams, in terms of philosophy, tactics, youth training, daily training, and even team management.
Under such circumstances, the introduction of foreign teachers and foreign aid will definitely help improve the level of domestic football.
When the level of domestic football has been improved in an all-round way, and when the professional football industry has gradually become large, everything will naturally follow, even the youth training.
To give a simple example, assuming that all sixteen teams in China burn money and introduce strong foreign aid, how many can there be?
If domestic players are not strong enough,
No matter how good the foreign aid is, what's the use?
Therefore, foreign aid and local players complement each other. While introducing strong foreign aid, local players must also be valued.
Even if you can't cultivate it yourself, you will definitely spend money to buy it. ◊┡╪w{ww..
When excellent local players in the country are scarce and transfer fees are rising, it will be easy to handle. There will definitely be teams that are responsible for training, and then cash out to sell, and finally form a stable player circulation system.
Just like La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona are responsible for burning money, and other teams are responsible for cultivating talents.
Atletico Madrid is also eager to squeeze into the first army now, and will also be responsible for burning money and introducing stars in the future.
Of course, this is not to say that these teams responsible for burning money do not pay attention to youth training.
It can only be said that they will not rely on youth training.
Even though Southampton's current youth training output is amazing, but within five years, the Saints will definitely embark on this path.
The reason is simple, this is the path that all giants must take after they have developed to a certain level.
…………
…………
On the second day of Yangcheng Hengda's reversal of Mexico America, the Saints finally arrived at Narita Airport in Tokyo, belatedly.
Yang Huan did not go to pick up the plane, because the fanatical Japanese fans had already been waiting at Narita Airport.
As the hottest team in Europe in the past few years, this is the first time the Saints set foot in Japan, but they did not expect that a large number of Japanese fans welcomed the team's arrival in an almost crazy way.
They wore Saints jerseys, held up signs filled with various slogans, and blocked the entire airport.
Not only at the airport, but also on the Internet in Japan, the saints have completely become the hottest topic of conversation, bar none.
After arriving at the airport, superstars such as Ancelotti, Messi, Suarez and Neuer all accepted brief interviews with media reporters, expressing their desire for the Club World Cup.
"Yangcheng Hengda is a strong opponent, we will concentrate on the semi-finals!"
Coach Ancelotti said in an interview.
Captain Neuer also said that he had received the news on the plane and watched the game. He believed that Yangcheng Hengda would be a very threatening opponent.
Regardless of whether the words of the Saints players were sincere or polite, in short, they gave their opponents enough face.
Just kidding, this is the team from Master Huan's home country, can you not give me face?
But when it comes to the football field, that may not be the case. ◊◊◊╪┠┟┠═.〈《.
As the European champions, the Saints traveled thousands of miles from Europe to Japan in the middle of the season to participate in this Club World Cup. The organizers also gave enough face in the event arrangements.
Other teams have to go to Osaka to play a game first, but the Saints' semifinals are scheduled to be held in Yokohama.
Therefore, as soon as the Saints arrived in Tokyo, they immediately transferred to Yokohama without stopping.
But even so, the Saints still announced that in the semi-finals, many superstars in the team, including Messi, Suarez, Hazard, and Toni Cross, will not be able to participate.
The specific reason, the explanation given by the saints is that there are injuries.
But everyone knows that this group of players has just played in the English League and Champions League in Europe, so how could they be injured.
The most important thing is to consider the competition.
After playing the Club World Cup and returning to Europe, the Saints will welcome the Christmas devil's schedule non-stop.
If it weren't for FIFA's mandatory regulations that these stars must be obtained and must play, the Saints would definitely not put them all in the squad.
To put it bluntly, in terms of hard power, the Saints have the strength to win the championship even if they all come off the bench.
As it turned out, there was nothing wrong with the Saints' self-confidence.
In the semi-final match against Yangcheng Hengda, although the Saints did not try their best, they still defeated Yangcheng Hengda 4-0 very cleanly and successfully advanced to the final.
England center Harry Kane scored twice, Martial and Sturridge each scored.
It is worth mentioning that it was not Kovacic who replaced Toni Kroos in this game, but Belgian teenager Youri Tielemans.
The Belgian sits in the midfield, looks like a general, and his performance is remarkable, which is quite impressive.
His skills in the midfield are very delicate and his basic skills are very solid. With Pogba and Oscar, he firmly controlled the midfield and suppressed Yangcheng Hengda.
Three days after the Club World Cup semi-final against Yangcheng Hengda, the Saints ushered in the final.
Before the final, Yangcheng Hengda held a third and fourth final with Japan's Hiroshima team.
Yangcheng Hengda took the lead in scoring goals soon after the opening, and then safely controlled the game.
But in the second half, the Hiroshima team started to force, and Yangcheng Hengda made two mistakes and was pulled by the opponent twice.
But at the last moment of the game, captain Zheng Zhi scored an equalizer for Yangcheng Hengda, and the two sides entered overtime.
In the overtime match, Yangcheng Hengda performed very tenaciously. Under the condition of huge physical consumption, he insisted on scoring two goals in a row. He defeated the Japanese Hiroshima team 4-2 and won the third place in the Club World Cup.
This also made Yang Huan, who was watching the game, applaud non-stop, and congratulated Yangcheng Hengda on WeChat, thinking that this is a victory for Chinese football, which is too awesome!
Compared with the three or four finals, the finals were uneventful.
It's not that the game was not good. On the contrary, the Saints played their main players this time, including Messi, Suarez, Hazard and other superstars, and they all played the whole game.
The reason for the calm was mainly because the Saints crushed the Argentine River Plate team throughout.
Less than six minutes into the game, the Saints took the lead in scoring.
It is the Argentine player Messi who opened the record for the Saints!
Then in the 27th minute, with another assist from Hazard, Suarez grabbed a point in the small penalty area and broke through the goal of the River Plate team again, rewriting the score to 2-0.
In the second half, they switched sides and fought again. The Saints continued to attack unabated and firmly controlled the situation of the game. In the 68th minute, Fabregas made a through pass and Suarez turned offside to form a single goal. He scored again and scored twice. Spend.
Three to zero, the Saints beat River Plate and won the Club World Cup!
Yang Huan was also very embarrassed watching from the stands.
It can be said that the River Plate team is not an opponent of the Saints at all. If the Saints did not stay strong all the way, it is estimated that the Argentine team would lose even worse.
It can be said that the strength of European teams in this event is absolutely crushing.
Even the intensity and enjoyment of the competition are far inferior to the International Champions Cup organized and planned by Yang Huan himself.
Originally, according to Yang Huan's plan, if the International Champions Cup should reflect the word "international", it should not be limited to the participation of European teams. Therefore, he considered inviting South American teams to participate.
But in the end, after some investigation, he found that if South American teams were invited to participate, the schedule would be a bit difficult, not to mention that the enjoyment of the game would definitely be affected.
In the final analysis, it is still that the South American teams are not strong enough.
Throughout the past few years, the loss of South American football talent has been too serious.
Not to mention that the top five European leagues are still recruiting the top football talents in South America, just talk about Portugal, how many South American foreign players are there?
There are also local leagues such as Ukraine, Russia, and Turkey, and they are also frantically recruiting foreign aid from South America.
Now, a China has risen in Asia.
The most high-quality star resources in South America have been carved up long ago. What can they use to compete with Europe?
The world's best football stars have gone to Europe, coupled with Europe's own sound football industry and ample football capital operation, the European League has risen, and with the help of copyright, it is sold all over the world.
Really want to compete, who can stop Europe?
Although no one said it, in fact, today's world football has quietly entered the era of football colonization.
Or the colonial era of capital football!
Therefore, today's professional football league has already entered the era of capital operation.
If China wants to rise, it must either follow up and follow this trend, or it will be reduced to a small country like those.
Another point is youth training.
Assuming that China's youth training is really promoted, with a huge population base, there are a large number of talents, but the league is as disappointing as the national team, what will the result be like?
China's football industry will develop to the end, and the big deal is that, like Brazil and Argentina, it will be reduced to relying on exporting players to earn foreign exchange.
This is definitely not a good thing for the domestic football industry, nor is it a long-term solution.
Therefore, the government's football reform is in the right direction. It's just that this road is not easy to walk, and it won't be possible to get out of it in a short time.
But just like what Yang Huan said when he was in Longhai, with China's huge population base and such a huge consumer market, who would believe that China couldn't create a world-class professional league?
Now, sitting in the stands of the stadium and watching the River Plate team's defenseless performance against the Saints, Yang Huan believed in this even more.
After the competition, there will be a brief awards ceremony.
The Golden Globes, Silver Globes and Bronze Balls have all been won by the Saints.
Interestingly, the award presenter turned out to be the legendary Ma Yun.
It was also at this moment that Yang Huan realized belatedly that Alibaba was the sponsor of this Club World Cup.
No wonder Ma Yun was able to come out to present the award!
