Chapter 1,147 Confrontation
Camacho had just joined the Chinese national team and didn't even recognize the players. Of course he could just sit on the sidelines, but the team leader Jing Wei and the vice chairman of the Football Association Yu Chen couldn't. They quickly called Li Feng, Du Wei and other players to come over and meet Gao Xiaodong.
Gao Xiaodong was selected for the national team for the first time and could be regarded as a "recruit", but no one dared to treat him as a "recruit".
Gao Xiaodong hasn't arrived yet, but the head coach and the Football Association have already announced in advance that Gao Xiaodong will be the team's first captain and will also serve as the team's deputy leader.
Although Gao Xiaodong is still young in qualifications, he is the World Footballer of the Year and winner of two European Triple Crowns. This ability is worthy of the captaincy.
It's okay to be the captain, but Gao Xiaodong also has another title, that of deputy team leader, who is involved in team management. This is not only the status of the team leader, but he can even share power with the coach.
Therefore, except for the two former captains Li Feng and Du Wei, their younger brothers actually wanted to come over and say hello to Gao Xiaodong. Although they did not seek to have a good relationship with Gao Xiaodong, at least they did not want to stand against Gao Xiaodong. , just because Li Feng and Du Wei didn't move, they couldn't take the initiative to go over. Now Yu Chen and Jing Wei were talking. Except for Li Feng and Du Wei, the other players hurried over to say hello to Gao Xiaodong, introduce themselves, and say goodbye. admire.
In the end, only two people, Li Feng and Du Wei, did not go over to say hello to Gao Xiaodong, and Gao Xiaodong did not go over either. The three of them stood looking at each other in three directions, like an equilateral triangle.
How could Xiaodong stand so strong? Yu Debao and Yang Fan were both surprised. In their minds, Gao Xiaodong was an all-rounder. Under normal circumstances, Gao Xiaodong would not let such an embarrassing scene happen. He would have taken the initiative to greet Du Wei and Li Feng.
Yang Fan was smarter. He immediately realized that Gao Xiaodong was demonstrating, and quickly grabbed Yu Debao, who wanted to introduce Gao Xiaodong and the others.
Of course, what Yang Fan could see clearly, Yu Chen and Jing Wei could see more clearly. They didn't go over immediately. They wanted to see how the big bosses in these three teams would handle this situation.
"Hello Xiaodong, I'm Du Wei, welcome. Everyone is looking forward to your arrival like the stars and the moon."
After a short confrontation, Du Wei, the national football captain in the Gao Bo era, finally broke the delicate situation and extended a welcoming hand to Gao Xiaodong.
Du Wei was the captain of the national team during Gao Bo's time. His current position in the national football team is very embarrassing. Camacho did not trust him and did not want to call him into the national team at first. It was just because there was no one in the team and the suggestion of the Football Association. Du Weicai was selected.
Obviously, even if you are selected,
Du Wei could only be a marginal player in Camacho's team, so facing the rising Gao Xiaodong, Du Wei finally put down his face and prepared to show his favor to Gao Xiaodong and use Gao Xiaodong's strength to stay in the national team.
Gao Xiaodong didn't know what Du Wei was thinking. He had already shown his power, and he would definitely accept the olive branch offered by him.
"Brother Du is serious. I'm new here. Please take care of me in the future." Gao Xiaodong held Du Wei's hand and shook it heavily.
"'You're welcome, the national team will mainly rely on you for support from now on." Du Wei's attitude was very low.
Gao Xiaodong and Du Wei were chatting affectionately. Li Feng stood there, either walking away or joining the conversation. It became even more awkward for a while.
Just when Li Feng was determined to walk away, Du Wei pulled Gao Xiaodong over and said, "Xiaodong, let me introduce to you. This is our former captain Li Feng, who is also the veteran of our national team."
Li Feng glanced at Gao Xiaodong and remained motionless, waiting for Gao Xiaodong to reach out and hold it.
Gao Xiaodong glanced at Li Feng, but did not extend his hand. Instead, he smiled and said, "Brother Du, aren't you the former captain?"
Du Wei felt that there might be something wrong between Gao Xiaodong and Li Feng from the previous behavior, but he didn't know what Gao Xiaodong and Li Feng had, so he wanted to be a peacemaker and dragged Gao Xiaodong over to talk to Li Feng, but he didn't expect that the two The conflict was so deep that Li Feng didn't even extend his hand. Gao Xiaodong directly mocked Li Feng.
Du Wei secretly scolded himself for being nosy, but now the peacemaker had no choice but to continue, "Haha, I am the former captain, and Li Feng is the former captain."
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "I am the current captain, and we are three captains. I will need the support of you two old captains in the future."
Li Feng was so angry at Gao Xiaodong that he clenched his fists. If Gao Xiaodong said anything unpleasant again, he would not be prepared to endure it any longer. Hearing what Gao Xiaodong said, his anger subsided a little, but he remained silent.
At this time, Jing Wei also discovered that Gao Xiaodong and Li Feng had a deep conflict. He was afraid that the two would get into trouble and affect the match that was about to start, so he came over and said, "Okay, everyone knows each other. Let's train quickly now. There are still two days left in the match." It started in just over an hour.”
Du Wei was relieved and hurriedly said to Gao Xiaodong: "Xiaodong, hurry up and change your clothes for training. Singapore should not be underestimated. Hong Kong caused us a lot of trouble back then."
"OK."
Gao Xiaodong was about to go over and change clothes, but Camacho stopped him.
"Gao, you don't need to change your clothes first. I'll tell you about our starting lineup and tactics today."
Gao Xiaodong said: "There is no time, coach, you can tell me during training."
Camacho said: "Gao, you came too late, you have not practiced with your teammates, and you have flown more than 10,000 kilometers, and your body is too tired, so I did not arrange for you to start. You will be a substitute. If the game does not go well, If everything goes well, you can play again."
If everything goes well, won't you go on stage? Is there any difficulty in playing against a team like Singapore? Gao Xiaodong heard some subtleties in Camacho's words, but Camacho's words were reasonable, and it was Gao Xiaodong's first time being selected for the national team. He didn't want to ignore Camacho's orders when they met for the first time, so he said: " Good coach, everything is up to you."
The players practiced on the field. Camacho explained to Gao Xiaodong the tactics for today's match against Singapore, and at the same time made Gao Xiaodong familiar with these national team teammates on the field.
However, Camacho was also new here and could not name the players on the court and could only call them by their numbers. In this regard, he was not as good as Gao Xiaodong. Although many people had just met him once, after a while, Gao Xiaodong had already Can almost call every player on the field by name.
The Chinese team trained until about 5 o'clock, and Singaporean players came to the field, accompanied by some Singaporean reporters and fans.
As soon as the Singaporean players entered the field, fans and reporters recognized Gao Xiaodong and immediately shouted from a distance, "Gao Xiaodong! Gao Xiaodong is here!"
What then stunned the Chinese team members was that not only the Singaporean fans, but also several Singaporean players came over to say hello to Gao Xiaodong. One of the Singaporean players even asked a reporter to take a photo of him with Gao Xiaodong.
"Is this our opponent?" Yu Debao said to Yang Fan with a wry smile, "Why is he so similar to the fans?"
Yang Fan said: "Originally, Singaporean players are semi-professional, not much different from fans."
Over there, Li Feng sneered and said to Du Wei: "A team like this is worthy of being our opponent? If you can't beat them, you can hang yourself."
Du Wei was also amused and said: "It's really unexpected that the star chaser has joined the opponent's camp. It really doesn't look like a professional player."
However, Yu Chen, vice chairman of the Football Association, cheerfully said to the team leader Jing Wei: "Is Singapore surrendering on its own initiative? The charm of superstars is really great."
Jingwei laughed and said, "Yes, a superstar. Maybe the referee is also a fan of Xiaodong."
The Singaporean team came over for training, but the Chinese team did not and did not bother to watch from the side. They went back to the lounge and waited for the game to start.
