Chapter 364 U23 Asian Cup Eve (Chinese National Football Team Content, Mind Please Order with Care)
2020 1 Month 2 Day.

In the 21st round of the Premier League, Arsenal faced Manchester United.

Just after the first half ended, Mahrez cut inside and scored, giving Manchester United a temporary one-goal lead.

As for Chu Feng, he sat on the bench.

Although the U23 Asian Cup will be held in seven days, Chu Feng still needs to fly to Thailand, and the straight-line flight distance is nine thousand kilometers.

Moreover, there are aspects such as jet lag and pre-match training, which definitely won't be easy.

Mourinho feels heartbroken!
But it is also a good thing for disciples to fight for the country, so he can only try his best to let Chu Feng rest more.

Soon the halftime break was over.

Manchester United players returned to the green field and played with more and more enthusiasm.

why?
Because of their poor performance, Chu Feng had to come on as a substitute to clean up the mess for them.

Is this acceptable?

It’s not like they would become useless without Chu Feng.

Due to the change of head coach, Arsenal's tactical ideas of Arteta have been running in for half a season, but on paper their strength is far inferior to Manchester United.

Just look at the three defensive midfielders led by Kante. Arsenal's passing and cutting cooperation has never crossed this line of defense.

Except for a slight advantage in ball possession, the team was at a disadvantage in terms of shots, steals, etc.

Courtside.

"Chu, I've looked at the situation of each team in the U23 Asian Cup in advance. With your ability, you will definitely crush them, but you must be careful not to get hurt. They will definitely target you."

Mourinho gave many instructions.

To be honest, after watching the Chinese U23 team, he found that the gap between them and top teams like South Korea was in all aspects.

But that's okay.

Because of Chu Feng.

A defensive counterattack system was built with Chu Feng as the core, and everyone attacked and defended around him.

Mourinho had seen some reports before saying that South Korea was not afraid of Chu Feng.

Are you kidding? In the overall strength level of the U23 team, what level is the Ballon d'Or winner?
crush.

He can be sure of it.

As long as the head coach of the National Olympic Team does not do anything stupid and use passing and controlling or technical flow.

Cross from the bottom, long pass over the top, set piece
With this tactic, and relying on Chu Feng's personal ability, the Chinese team will not do badly.

"Boss, don't worry!"

Chu Feng said with a smile.

I have a cheat - an injury immunity module. The benefits this thing brings to athletes are terrifying.

Look at this season, apart from rotation, he has participated in every league and Champions League game, and his competitive form has been maintained well.

"Okay, remember to find me if you have anything."

Mourinho nodded.

In the end, Arsenal lost 0:2 to Manchester United in this game, and Chu Feng had no chance to play at all.

That evening he boarded a flight to Bangkok, Thailand.

How long does it take to fly 9,000 kilometers?

It takes about eleven hours.

The next morning.

At Suvarnabhumi International Airport, there was a huge crowd of people outside the hall.

This is the lineup of Ballon d'Or winners.

Nowadays, Chu Feng is not only popular in China, but also in the whole of Asia.

Therefore, there were many Thai fans who came to the scene to welcome Chu Feng.

Immediately, everyone looked over and saw a familiar figure.

Chu Feng walked out of the airport lobby with his assistant.

Wow!!!——

Chu Feng couldn't understand the gibberish in Thai and could only smile and wave to the enthusiastic fans.

Fortunately, the Thai police set up a cordon in advance and deployed a large number of police forces near the airport, so that the scene did not become too chaotic.

"Chu, can you give me an autograph?"

“Take a group photo together!”

"I've been a Manchester United fan for 50 years!"

"."

Signing autographs and taking photos is definitely not an option. Given the terrifying number of fans at the scene, it would probably take two or three days to sign all of them.

Will the U23 Asian Cup still be held?

Under the protection of bodyguards, Chu Feng boarded the business car.

Oh, this is his own bodyguard, hired by Manchester United.

I have been following Chu Feng since last season, and it has been a year and a half now.

As for business capabilities?

Since there has been no danger, it remains to be verified.

However, they look very strong and tall, and the leading bodyguard is a retired WBO bodyguard.

Anyway, you don’t have to spend your own money.

Chu Feng’s current food, clothing and other expenses are all paid for by Manchester United.

Otherwise, the top salary in the Premier League would not be worthy of his current strength and status.

Bangkok, also known as the City of Angels, is the most popular city in the world.

People say that Thailand is very poor, but you can’t see that in Bangkok, especially in the business district in the city center, which is not inferior to that of China’s first-tier cities.

Besides, Bangkok is also a famous tourist city.

Many Chinese people prefer to spend their holidays here.

But nowadays, they don’t come for attractions like Crocodile Farm, Wat Arun, and the Grand Palace.

But for the U23 Asian Cup.

Almost an hour later.

Outside the training base of the Chinese Olympic Team, a group of fans wearing red jerseys are eagerly waiting for something.

Compared with the Thai fans, Chinese fans are more enthusiastic.

After all, he is one of his own.

"Thanks for the support!"

After Chu Feng got off the car, he didn't act too cool and asked for autographs from a few fans.

Can football as a sport still achieve this level of popularity without fans?
No.

That’s why we should be friendlier to the fans, and not be arrogant and look down on this and that just because we have achieved a little success.

at the same time.

Inside the gate of the training base, the players and coaching staff of the National Olympic Team were waiting for Chu Feng.

Of course, if it were any other player, how could they get such treatment?

But everyone knows who the real boss is.

"Brother Chu's popularity is terrifying!"

Zhu Chenjie said enviously.

"That's right, seven-time champion and Ballon d'Or winner. I don't even ask for the Ballon d'Or. I can wake up laughing one night if I take any one of the seven titles."

Jiang Shenglong smacked his lips.

To be honest, he didn't expect Chu Feng to come to the National Olympic Team and accompany them to participate in the U23 Asian Cup.

to this end.

After the national Olympic coach Hiddink was dismissed, Fu Bo, who had coached Shi Ke, Wu Lei, Zhang Xizhe and others, came to the team.

He resigned from the Guangzhou-Shanghai South China Tigers Club and took up the coaching position of the Chinese U23 team again.

"Have you heard? We were originally going to choose Hao Wei, but he was rejected because of those things."

Gao Tianyi covered his mouth and whispered.

"Hey, these f*cking people originally fixed matches and colluded with agents to cheat players. They should have been put in jail and stepped on sewing machines a long time ago!"

Chen Wei said angrily.

One of his friends was not only cheated out of money, but also wasted the years when his career was growing the fastest.

"Okay, don't say this kind of thing outside, so as to avoid causing further public opinion."

Zhang Yuning changed the subject, "We are in the same group with Japan, Syria and Qatar this time. Don't relax just because Chu Feng is back. We must also fight with all our strength!"

As the saying goes: If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up.

But if the Chinese U23 players just want to mess around, Chu Feng will lead them to victory.

Then the Chinese U23 will definitely not go far.

Because football is not a one-man game.

Perhaps some people can gain honors that are disproportionate to their achievements without making any effort.

But that won’t be them.

"Yeah!" Everyone nodded when they heard this.

Is there any difference between the Olympic team and the national team?

young.

Young people are often ambitious, and no matter how poor their skills are, they will not give up and take a walk.

This is the case with the current National Olympic Team.

They understand that there is a gap between them and strong teams like South Korea and Japan, and they cannot make up for it by themselves.

Now that we have Chu Feng, we have the opportunity.

Counting from the past, this U23 Asian Cup is the fifth time that the Chinese team has participated in it.

And in the 14 games that have been participated in.

The Chinese team only won one game and lost the remaining 1 games.

Never advanced to the knockout rounds.

As Chinese football gets better step by step, the national team has regained its vitality.

They were equally excited.

Damn, qualify for the U23 Asian Cup and get a ticket to the Olympics.

This is their common goal.

Whoever dares to give up, Chu Feng won’t have to clean up, they will just start fighting!
After half an hour.

When Chu Feng walked into the training base, he saw many familiar faces.

They were surrounded in an instant.

They all asked questions here and there, and were so enthusiastic that Chu Feng patiently chatted with them.

Fortunately, there are national team teammates such as Zhu Chenjie and Jiang Shenglong in the team. They usually promote Chu Feng in the team when they have nothing to do.

So everyone quickly became familiar with each other, and the original sense of distance was largely eliminated.

After all, in the eyes of these young people.

Chu Feng's achievements are too high and his strength is too strong.
But now I feel that he is very easy-going and does not have the airs of a superstar.

"Ahem. Chu Feng, welcome."

When everyone was almost done with their greetings, Fu Bo came over with two light coughs and said with a smile on his face, "I just came from Manchester and need a good rest. Please don't make things worse."

To be honest, he didn't expect Chu Feng to come, after all, the event and status were different.

But now that I'm here, my goal is no longer a ticket to the Tokyo Olympics.

Of course, he wouldn't say these words out loud, he would just keep them in his heart and do them silently.

"Coach Fu, are there any training arrangements for today? I want to get familiar with the tactics as soon as possible."

Chu Feng didn't look that tired.

The comfort of a private jet is far superior to that of a commercial jet, so he even slept a little longer last night.

"It will be available in the afternoon. After lunch, you can rest for a while."

Fu Bo's smile widened.

Look at his upright professional attitude. If all my subordinates were Chu Feng, forget it. Don’t dream something that cannot be realized.

"During the training camp some time ago, when you were still at the club and had not returned to China, we practiced the new tactics in advance and Coach Lippi also made some suggestions."

"The basic formation is 4-2-3-1, which is different from the national team because the players' abilities are different."

"You are the only striker at the front, similar to Manchester United last season. The main tactics are also defensive counterattacks, and the offensive end is diagonal passes from the ribs and secondary crosses."

Fu Bo talked about the main tactics of the National Olympic Team.

Chu Feng thought as he walked, it really sounded simple.

Unlike his father-in-law, who uses tactics like triangle to expand space and rotation in running battles.

"There's no problem on my end. We'll see after the joint training. There are still six days left before the competition, which is enough time for me to integrate into the team."

Chu Feng nodded.

He's not exaggerating, that's the truth.

His top-notch ability to read the game and tactical level enable him to integrate new tactics in the shortest possible time and become the leader of the tactical system.

"Well, if you have any questions, just ask them and our coaching staff will solve them as soon as possible."

Fu Bo didn't act like a head coach.

nonsense.

Lippi has to give up some tactical rights, so does he still want to control the overall situation?

To put it bluntly, in today's National Olympic Team, Chu Feng is the big daddy.

Even if he said he played 10-0-1
Of course, this is an exaggeration.

Half past two in the afternoon.

Chu Feng came to the training ground from the hotel, and his teammates had already arrived.

So positive?
Chu Feng felt that young people were full of energy, unlike the national team where they were a bit dull.

"Warm up first. We'll play a half-hour competition later and get familiar with the new tactics first."

Fu Bo said in a deep voice.

Chu Feng shuttled through the formation, but did not rely on his personal ability to forcibly break away from the multiple threats to the goal.

The main task today is to get familiar with teammates.

Soon, he had a basic understanding of this National Olympic Team.

The defense is a little bit flawed, but it is much better than before.

Among them, Zhu Chenjie and Jiang Shenglong studied abroad and their technical level improved significantly.

The two full-backs were a bit reckless.

Duan Liuyu in the midfield has good ball handling skills and dares to make moves and pass threatening balls.

Chen Binbin on the wing has good physical fitness and a good cross, similar to his old teammate Professor Yang.

There are four parts in total: dribbling the ball, breaking through, going down the bottom, and crossing.

Although there is a lack of variety, it is effective.

And head coach Fu Bo did not exaggerate, the National Olympic team's defensive counterattack was very sharp.

But originally the strikers were lacking in finishing.

That's why I always missed opportunities, but now that I have myself, the situation is completely different.

In general.

The defense can hold steady, the midfield can pass the ball, and the wingers can break through
Chu Feng was not disappointed, on the contrary, he was a little surprised.

the next day.

The National Olympic Team members stared at the goal with wide eyes, and the football was lying quietly inside.

At the same time, a picture is playing in a loop in my mind.

After Chu Feng received the pass from Huang Cong, he lowered his shoulders and passed Huang Zhengyu.

Then he broke through and pushed away Zhu Chenjie and Jiang Shenglong and shot.

"Yesterday I thought... Damn, I really wanted to slap myself."

Chen Binbin's face was full of shock.

"Too strong, the frequency of movements, the ability to fight, the speed of explosion."

Zhang Yuning sighed silently.

He knows that his future national team career will most likely be spent on the bench.

But he wasn't that lost.

Who used to be Chu Feng's substitute?
Lukaku!
He is now the little prince of Inter Milan. He and Lautaro are both tall and fast, and are also famous players in the football world.

You should be proud of yourself!

Day three.

Chu Feng completely conquered his teammates and coaching staff with his strength.

The National Olympic Team's tactics are also improving rapidly.

Day 4, Day 5, Day 6
Time flies to February 1th.

Rajamangala National Stadium.

The first round of the U23 Asian Cup group stage is about to start!
Qatar U23 vs. China U23!

Pre-match press conference.

"In the last Asian Cup, I led Qatar to win the championship, while the Chinese team fell before the semi-finals!"

"In this U23 Asian Cup, we are the first-tier team and the Chinese team is the third-tier team."

"So you shouldn't ask if we will panic."

"Chu? He's a good player, but football is a team sport and I don't think his teammates can help him."

Sanchez, head coach of the Qatar adult national team and part-time Olympic team, said confidently.

But if you look from the back, you'll see that his hidden hands are shaking.

Not afraid?
He started his coaching career at Barcelona in 1996, and brought out outstanding players such as Roberto, Montoya and Deulofeu.

He had seen how powerful Daluo was, so he naturally knew that Chu Feng was even more terrifying.

Damn, how could the AFC agree to let the Ballon d'Or winner participate in a competition of this level?
