Chapter 239 Winning the East Asian Cup

In the eyes of many British media, the duel between Manchester United and Chelsea is a duel with special significance: a duel between traditional conservative forces and emerging innovative forces.Many people hoped that Chelsea would win, but after a thrilling game, the result showed people: no surprises, your uncle is still your uncle!
Manchester United demonstrated their strength and stability to the world football through such a key matchup victory, and at the same time, they also re-sent themselves to the top of the Premier League standings. They surpassed the Premier League standings with 35 points. Arsenal with 34 points!
For this game, Ferguson believes that the result is satisfactory, and there is no doubt that Manchester United won.Although the team was awarded a penalty that should not have been awarded, the players performed very tenaciously. They overcame various unfavorable factors and finally took away valuable three points from the away game.

Especially Yin Jun, who scored two goals, was very dominant in the game.Ferguson even took this opportunity to cheer for his disciples. He believed that with Yin Jun's fantastic performance in 2003, no player on the planet was more worthy of the European Golden Globe Award and World Footballer of the Year than him!

Claudio Claudio Ranieri was very disappointed with the result of this game. He believed that Chelsea should have scored three points at home, but the referee's red card killed the game.

Of course, nothing is more disappointing than Chelsea boss Roman Abramovich who flew all the way from Russia to London to watch the game.When the game was over, reporters photographed the Russian super-rich leaving their boxes with ugly faces.

An insider revealed to the "Sun" that the super rich in Russia have begun to look for a new coach, and the Blues are very likely to change coaches around Christmas.

………………

Yin Jun didn't know what happened after the victory of the game, because he left the team as soon as the game ended, took a flight from London Heathrow International Airport, and flew to Tokyo, Japan, on the other side of the world.

Just four days later, the first East Asian Football Championship will start in Japan.The first opponent of the Chinese team is against the host, Japan.

The competition system of the East Asian Football Championship is rather special. The three teams that participated in the 2002 World Cup finals were selected as the seed teams and directly advanced to the final week. The other five teams had to participate in the qualifying round to produce the fourth finals team.

After some competition, the Xiangjiang team became the fourth team to participate in the finals.

The four teams will compete in a single round-robin format within a week, and the final ranking will be determined by points.

The game between the Chinese team and the Japanese team is the second game of this East Asian Football Championship, and the venue is the Tokyo National Stadium.

This is the first real confrontation between the national teams of China and Japan in the past three years. The last time the two teams played against each other was the eight-to-four match in the last Asian Cup. At that time, the Chinese team lost 3:2 to the Japanese.

Chinese people all hope that this game is a battle of revenge, and they have great hopes for the Chinese team with Yin Jun.

However, it was the Japanese team that scored the first goal in the game.

Only 6 minutes into the game, Japan got a free kick in the frontcourt. The Chinese team did not immediately destroy the ball after it was intercepted. As a result, the Japanese team countered again.Yoshito Okubo, the core midfielder, made an overhead pass. No. 9 Kubo Tatsuhiko broke into the penalty area. Liu Yunfei blocked the angle, but failed to get the ball. Kubo Tatsuhiko passed Liu Yunfei and shot an empty goal. , to help the Japanese team take the lead.

The Chinese team equalized before the end of the first half.In the 43rd minute, the Chinese team passed the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt. After Li Yi got the ball, he sprinted and passed it to Yin Jun in front of the penalty area.

After Yin Jun got the ball, he got rid of his opponent and entered the penalty area, sending the football into the Japanese team's net, tying the score at 1:1.

In the 80th minute of the game, the Japanese team intercepted the ball in the midfield and took advantage of the Chinese team's overpressure to form a defensive emptiness. They counterattacked decisively. Kubo Tatsuhiko, who performed well in this game, once again broke through the area defended by Zheng Zhi, and faced the attacking Liu Yun. If you can't push the shot calmly on the penalty area line.

2:1, the host once again exceeded the score.

However, after only 6 minutes, the Chinese team once again equalized the score.The Chinese team intercepted the ball in the midfield and formed a quick counterattack. Li Yi made a breakthrough from the left, but his shot was not strong enough after passing the goalkeeper, and the ball was too slow.At the critical moment, it was Yin Jun who was like a magic soldier descending from the sky, and he took the lead in stabbing the ball into the Japanese team's net.

In the end, the Chinese team drew the host Japanese team 2:2 in the first game.In another game, the South Korean team defeated the Xiangjiang team 3:1.

………………

Three days later, the Chinese team moved to Saitama to face the second opponent of the tournament, the South Korean team.

This was an extremely chaotic game. The South Korean team used everything on the field, but they were still suppressed by the Chinese team with Yin Jun.If it weren't for the fact that the ability of the Chinese team's strikers to seize opportunities is really hard to compliment, the Chinese team would have already taken a big lead.

In the passive South Korean team, the mentality of many players is a little out of balance.Then, when the Chinese team forward Li Yi pressed his opponent once, the opponent became angry and hit Li Yi on the head with his fist, causing a scuffle between the players on the field and the scene was out of control for a while.

After some confusion, the South Korean player who punched Li Yi was sent off with a direct red card, which made the game more tilted towards the Chinese team.

In the end, Yin Jun scored a hat-trick in this game. Although the South Korean team was very tenacious to get back a victory, they finally lost with a score of 1:3.

By this point in the tournament, the situation was clear: the championship was basically locked up by the Chinese team, because their last opponent, the Chinese Xiangjiang team, would have a hard time preventing the Chinese team from winning.

The South Korean team and the Japanese team will have to fight in the final game.Unless the Japanese team wins the South Korean team, it is possible to overwhelm the Chinese team and win the championship of this tournament.

In fact, there was no accident at all in the last round of the match. The Chinese team swept the Chinese Xiangjiang team with a disparity of 5:1 in Yokohama, and thus beat the host Japanese team with an undefeated record of 2 wins and 1 draw. The champion of the first East Asian Football Championship.

And this is also the first important championship of the Chinese men's national team in an official competition.

Yin Jun showed a level beyond Asian players in this competition. Although he has always been the target of the opponent, he still scored 7 goals and won the golden boot of the competition with an absolute advantage. .At the same time, he also sent 1 assist, and he was undoubtedly elected the most valuable player of this tournament.

………………

Speaking of the Chinese men's football team, the team has been built for a long time, but the results are really lackluster.Except for winning the championship in the Far East Games during the period of the Republic of China, since the founding of New China, it has not won the championship in any international competition.The only commendable thing is that he has won the Asian Cup runner-up once.

This time, under the leadership of Yin Jun, the Chinese team finally won the first international championship.

In any case, the East Asian Cup competition also went abroad.

The national team returned home with great enthusiasm, ready to receive applause and cheers from the fans.Yin Jun originally didn't want to go back to China with the national team, because four days later, he will join the Manchester United team that is about to arrive in Japan to participate in this year's Toyota Cup.

However, Yin Jun couldn't resist the repeated persuasion of the team leader and head coach Ali Han, so he set foot on the special plane back home together.

For the first international championship in the history of the national team, the Football Association seemed very grand, and specially chartered a plane for the team to take the heroes back home.

At this critical moment, if Yin Jun, the biggest hero who won the championship, is not present, it will greatly eclipse the following celebrations, and even cause dissatisfaction among many fans.

After receiving a warm welcome from the fans at the Capital Airport, the Football Association also held a very grand celebration banquet for the national team, inviting many famous seniors in the football world, as well as some figures from the entertainment and business circles, and even set up a grand celebration banquet for the national team. Shows like walking on the red carpet are similar to the FIFA awards show, which makes Yin Jun very speechless.

But the leaders were happy, and he could only hold back any ideas he had.

Yin Jun followed the head coach Alihan and the leaders of the Football Association, so he naturally received more attention than ordinary players.

In fact, everyone is so enthusiastic about Yin Jun, to a certain extent, even attracts more attention than the head coach Ali Han and the leaders of the Football Association. representative figure.

However, when Yin Jun was dealing with everyone with a smile, he finally met a guy who was not very harmonious.

………………

A reporter who probably came from a TV station in Xiangjiang came to Yin Jun with a microphone, followed by a cameraman, and asked: "Mr. Yin, can you clarify a question, what is your current nationality? ?”

Yin Jun didn't even look at him, and just ignored him, which made the man look embarrassed, and the people next to him also glared at that guy, obviously complaining that this guy came to disrupt the situation.

But beyond everyone's expectations, that stunned young man followed him again, and asked Yin Jun the same question loudly: "Mr. Yin, can you clarify a question, what is your current nationality?"

This time his voice was louder, and dozens of people around him could hear him clearly, so they all gathered around in whispers, wanting to see where the situation would go.

Yin Jun naturally couldn't ignore it, otherwise it would be a very serious issue of national sentiment, so he stopped, stared at that guy, and then said slowly: "I love my motherland."

Ordinarily, Yin Jun's answer like this is equivalent to explaining the problem, and he will not change his nationality.But the annoying guy continued to ask sharply: "Mr. Yin, does your motherland refer to China, Britain, or other countries? This is an inaccurate term and cannot answer my question. The problem."

Yin Jun hated this guy very much at this time. Generally speaking, no one would question a superstar in such a public place, because this kind of question is very sensitive.But at this moment, it is a bit embarrassing to be suddenly asked such a question in front of a large audience. Who knows that answering this question will cause unnecessary disputes in other areas?
The people around looked at Yin Jun quietly, even the leaders of the Football Association stopped and looked at Yin Jun with a somewhat unclear attitude, obviously they also had some considerations in their hearts.

Yin Jun stared at that guy, frowned for a while, and then sarcastically said in a mocking tone: "This reporter is so strange, how could he ask me such a simple question? The motherland, the motherland, is naturally the ancestor The country where you are located, you have to ask me which country this motherland refers to, do you mean that you have completely forgotten where your ancestors are?!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the field immediately applauded and applauded. They also expressed their great agreement with Yin Jun's answer, and they looked down on the reporter who came out of nowhere.

Of course, the reporter was also uncomfortable. Originally, he wanted to join Yin Jun in the army, but he didn't expect Yin Jun to kick the ball back generously. On the contrary, it made him look like he had forgotten his ancestors. The dingy squirrel ran away.

Even the leader of the Football Association couldn't help coming over and praised: "Well, the explanation of the country where the ancestors are located is indeed quite incisive. That guy has bad intentions, and he asked for it if he was embarrassed."

Yin Jun shook his head and said: "I don't know where he came in from. It's nothing to find fault with. It doesn't look like a serious media reporter."

………………

Soon, the celebration banquet will begin.The leader of the Football Association sent someone to call Yin Jun over.

This hall is indeed big enough, passing by more than a dozen tables along the way, I saw that everyone gathered together in twos and threes to discuss various issues, and some young-looking men and women gathered together to laugh.

When Yin Jun passed by a table, it happened that the waiter was about to pass by with a plate containing wine glasses. When he saw them passing by, he naturally stopped and let them pass first, but he didn't expect that there would be others behind him. When people want to pass by, they bump into them.

The waiter's plate was thrown back immediately and turned over, only the sound of a woman screaming and the sound of a glass being broken on the ground, when the young waiter turned his head to look back, he was a little scared to find , the clothes of a young girl in a light purple evening dress were all dyed the color of red wine.

What's more terrible is that some clothes are easy to stick to the body after being stained with wine. Madara, it can be said that tonight's noble image or something has been completely ruined.
