Chapter 168: Obstruction
In the last few rounds, Rexos faced most of the bottom teams. The media did not pay attention to them, and they kept a low profile. After Seth, Rexos couldn't keep a low profile even if he wanted to.
After ten rounds, the fans were shocked to find that the top three positions in the standings had changed. Of course, the first place was Porto with 26 points, and the second place was Sporting Lisbon with 23 points, but the newly promoted Rexos He actually ranked third, and his points were still on par with Sporting Lisbon, only ranking third with a goal difference disadvantage.
The fans looked further back, and the fourth place was not Benfica, it turned out to be another newly promoted horse Guimaraes, Benfica only ranked fifth, and the quasi-rich Boavista actually reached the 13th place, almost entering the relegation zone .
God!
The fans all opened their mouths in shock, this can't be true, can it? Two newly promoted players in the top four? !
Maia, a famous reporter from "Competition", commented: "The Portuguese Super League in the new season has finally seen some new changes. The top three in the standings are no longer dominated by the traditional top three. The newly promoted Rexos squeezed the poor Benfica into the Fifth, fourth? Fourth is also a newly promoted, that is Guimaraes! Sounds crazy, I can't believe it is true, in fact, this is the truth, although the two black newly promoted horses this season may not be able to shake Porto's The championship, but it will definitely have a big impact on the Champions League seats of Sporting Lisbon and Benfica. They are all going to participate in the UEFA Champions League, and the fans have long been tired of looking at it. The two newly promoted players are very strong this time. I hope they will continue to work hard and strive to break the monopoly of the top three."
The "Record" commented: "Unknowingly, Rexos has become the third in the league, even if it is temporarily, this is enough to surprise people. The other newly promoted horse is also very good. Fourth, beating Benfica is really unacceptable."
"Izvestia" reporter Anna still continued to criticize Gao Xiaodong, going further and further down the road of Gao Hei. "The newly promoted Rexos has 6 wins, 1 loss and 2 draws in 10 rounds, ranking third, equal to Sporting Lisbon, and beating Benfica. This is a shocking result, but this result has nothing to do with Gao Xiaodong. The worst player in Rexos, if he doesn’t have a strong long-range shot and can run, I don’t know if he can play in Rexos (3,000 words are omitted below)… Another newly promoted Jima Liang They beat Benfica and ranked fourth, which is also an eye-popping result, while the two giants Benfica and Boavista are very disappointing. One of them ranked fifth and the other Almost into the relegation zone..."
"North Porto Sports Daily" commented: "The Portuguese Super League is third! This is the first time in the century-old history of Rexos! Every step Rexos takes is creating history..."
...
on the Internet,
The fans who were silenced by the Rexos results are now active again:
"Top three! Top three! Rexos is amazing!"
"Beat Sporting Lisbon in the next round, we will be second!"
"Just win the UEFA Champions League qualifiers this season, and hit the championship next season!"
"Be the strongest newly promoted! Be the Kaiser Stenlau of the Portuguese Super League!"
"There is not much hope for this season, our bench is not deep enough! I'm afraid there will be problems in the second half of the season!"
"The Portuguese Cup is about to start! We can't compete with Porto in the league, and it would be nice to win the cup!"
...
Before the match against Sporting Lisbon, Rexos was once again sought after by the media and fans, but the difference is that the players of Rexos have matured a lot this time, ten rounds of the league, nearly three months, It is enough for players who have never played in the Portuguese Super League to realize the cruelty behind the hustle and bustle of the top league. If you win, you will have applause and fame. If you lose, you will be criticized or ignored. You want to succeed in this circle. , they can't care too much about what the media and fans say and think.
...
Gao Xiaodong played ten games in the Portuguese Super League and started every game. Although he did not have many brilliant games, he also had two long-range shots to kill his opponents, especially the amazing performance of the lore against Benfica, which made his reputation in China grow day by day. .
Both "Sports Weekly" and "Ball News" sent reporters in Europe to follow up and report, and they regarded Gao Xiaodong as the leader of Chinese football in the future.
However, such a football genius has never been greeted by the national team and the Olympic team, which made the fans very dissatisfied. Every day, a large number of fans on the Internet football forums are asking why Gao Xiaodong was not selected for the national team and the Olympic team ?
Gao Xiaodong is just 18 years old this year. It is a bit reluctant to be selected for the national team, but why can’t he be selected for the National Olympic team? The latest training list of the National Olympic team is not without overseas players, such as Manchester United’s Zhuo Dongfang and Sporting Lisbon’s Zhang Chi They were all selected, and Gao Xiaodong is now the main player in the Portuguese Super League. Isn't it better for a player who can't make it to these two big lists?
Zhang Chi of Star of Hope can be regarded as half of Chen Qiang's brokerage company, but Gao Xiaodong is Chen Qiang's favorite. If Gao Xiaodong can't be selected, his popularity and reputation in China will definitely be affected. Chen Qiang felt that this matter was evil, so he went back to China to inquire. Condition.
Chen Qiang is good friends with Liu Jian, Director of the Youth Training Department of the Football Association, and is also familiar with Vice Chairman Yu of the Football Association. After returning to China, he first went to Liu Jian's home.
Putting down the gift for Liu Jian, Chen Qiang said straight to the point: "I'm asking about Gao Xiaodong. Gao Xiaodong was able to start in the Portuguese Super League, but he was not selected for the National Olympic training list. How strange! Zhang Chi was selected In terms of strength, fame, and popularity, Zhang Chi is several blocks behind Gao Xiaodong."
Liu Jian pondered: "It may be because of time conflicts. This training session lasted from the end of November to the end of December, and Gao Xiaodong is still playing in the Portuguese Super League."
Chen Qiang waved his hands again and again: "Don't say no, Lao Liu, how many years have we known each other, don't use this to fool me, the time conflict can be coordinated, or you can declare it without recruiting, it's a matter of face, if you keep quiet, Don't take Gao Xiaodong to heart, and recruit next time, it's strange that Fatty is willing to come."
Liu Jian pondered again, and said: "Actually, there is still something wrong with this matter. I heard that the vice chairman in charge of the National Olympics is not satisfied with Gao Xiaodong."
Chen Qiang sneered and thought, I just think someone is obstructing me, otherwise why would such a strange phenomenon occur, "Old Liu, you mean Vice Chairman Yang? Why is he dissatisfied with Gao Xiaodong? This is irrelevant. "
Liu Jian said: "I don't know the specific inside story, but the public statement is that Gao Xiaodong has bad conduct. Last time at the Star of Hope, he skipped training, skipped a match, beat up and threatened the team leader, and was expelled from the Star of Hope. He hasn't taken the initiative to approach the organization at all. It means that such a person is not recruited."
Chen Qiang said angrily: "It's been a matter of years, and besides, Li Sheng was lying."
Liu Jian laughed and said, "Yes, but I don't know the specific situation."
Chen Qiang said: "I'll go to Chairman Long and ask."
Liu Jian said: "If you ask Chairman Long about this matter, what can you find out? Even if you ask Chairman Yang, it will definitely only give you a high-sounding excuse. Gao Xiaodong is currently busy playing in the Portuguese Super League. If you don't get in, don't get in. Gao Xiaodong performed so well, but he still worries about not being able to enter the National Olympics."
Chen Qiang said: "Well, but I have to check this matter carefully, otherwise I might be blocked from the outside next time. In our country, ability is definitely not the number one priority."
Liu Jian smiled and said: "Then you can check it slowly, it's not a day or two, let's go out and get a cup first."
Chen Qiang forced a smile and said: "Okay, let's have a drink first." (to be continued)). If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please read here. )
