    The fast players all knew about Chen Wei's situation. In fact, when they learned about the fracture, they already understood that Chen Wei would definitely not be able to return to the court for a long time - players all know a little bit about fractures.

    Chen Wei's injury cast a shadow over the team. This situation prevented the players from celebrating as they extended their lead in the standings to five points. However, something moved them while they were stranded in Shanghai. Al  After learning about Chen Wei's injury, Bates went to the hospital to apologize to Chen Wei, even though he had done nothing wrong.

    Taking this opportunity, Pei Wei gave the players a good talk about the ethics of professional players: "On the court, any means within the rules can be used, including delaying time, tactical fouls, etc.  But there must be a certain degree. As a player, when you respect your opponent, you also respect yourself. You can defeat your opponent, but you cannot insult your opponent You should learn from Mr. Alberts' approach. It is inevitable that something unexpected will happen on the court.  It appears, but the difference between intentional and unintentional is enough to prove a player¡¯s professionalism!¡±

    Alberts used his practical actions to teach the Yunjia players a lesson, and at the same time gained the respect of the Yunjia players.

    In the next half month, Yunjia Tianyu continued to play two league games and one FA Cup game. However, the results of these three games were not very good. Two games in the league were tied, and in the Football Association Cup  In the quarter-finals of the Cup, Yunjia Tianyu, who sent out most of his substitutes, lost 0-2 to Shandong Hualong in an away game. It seemed difficult to go further.

    In the league, they first lost a point at home to Chongqing Huanyu with their consistent defensive tactics. In this game, Yunjia Tianyu shot up to 17 times, but in most of the time the opponent's airtight defense only allowed them to score.  He can test the opponent's goalkeeper with long shots - and the opponent's No. 3 national goalkeeper Fu Bing performed well and repeatedly blocked Yunjia Tianyu's threatening shots. In addition, Yunjia Tianyu's luck was not very good in this game.  Deco's two very threatening long-range shots hit the goal post, and Chongqing Huanyu's quick counterattack also caused a lot of trouble for Yunjia Tianyu's defense. Chu Ran still showed excellent reactions and judgment, but  This could only keep the goal alive. After the referee's whistle sounded, Chongqing Huanyu left Yunjia with satisfaction.

    After playing in Chongqing, Yunjia Tianyu rushed to Shandong without stopping. After losing the Football Association Cup match, they faced Shandong Hualong for the second consecutive game - but this was a league game, and Yunjia Tianyu originally had a very good start.  .  Zheng Zhi scored his third goal in three games. This player who rarely got opportunities in Yunjia Tianyu used his performance to prove that he can also occupy a place in the national team, but in the following games  Yunjia Tianyu's offense failed to expand the score, but the opponent tied the score in the second half. The old captain Su Maozhen headed Stoichkov's free kick into the goal (there was an error in the previous article, Shandong's Su Maozhen was  He did not retire this year, he only retired at the end of 2002).  Chu Ran was also beyond reach for this goal.

    The result of two consecutive draws was that the two strong teams behind Shanghai and Dalian caught up again - in these two games, Shanghai defeated Tianjin and Shaanxi consecutively, while Dalian had one win and one loss. Shanghai narrowed the gap in points.  At one point, Dalian was only five points behind.

    However, Yunjia Tianyu was not affected by these two draws. After all, the opponents in these rounds were all strong teams. In addition, it was an away game - home - away game, and the players' physical fitness and condition could not be improved.  Guaranteed, being able to score five points in these three games is already a good result.  At least they still maintained a one-point advantage.

    After finishing the devilish schedule, Yunjia Tianyu can finally breathe a sigh of relief. They defeated Yunnan with two goals in the last game of the first cycle. Sun Bing and Aylin each scored one goal in another game.  Shanghai Shenhua was quite unlucky. They encountered an explosive Romario - in their away game against Liaoning, Romario, who was suspended for two games by the club, returned from the ban. He expressed his anger towards the club.  All vented on Shanghai Shenhua - he scored a hat trick and assisted Zhang Yulin to score a goal. Liaoning defeated Shanghai 4-2. Yunjia Tianyu, who benefited from the loss, once again expanded the points advantage to four points.

    After losing this game, Shanghai Shenhua's situation suddenly became unfavorable. Behind them, Dalian Dongfang also caught up, and is now only one point away from them.

    In fact, this half-season is probably the best season for Shanghai Shenhua in recent years.  It's just that two key defeats cost them the chance to win the half-season championship. To say that their luck was quite bad. Yunjia Tianyu originally had a chance to win, but Chu Ran suddenly appeared.  They turned the three points they almost had into a negative three points.  And against Liaoning, they met Roma again.?The best game of the season, it was a bit unlucky.

    Dalian Dongfang, on the other hand, quietly caught up from behind. In Pei Wei's view, Dalian is Yunjia Tianyu's strongest opponent this season. Although Shanghai Shenhua is strong, they always like to lose at critical moments.  chain, and Dalian's tenacity allows them to keep chasing tenaciously.

    In strength

    Under the circumstances, any advantage may determine the final success. I firmly believe that the final champion this season will be Yunjia Tianyu, because they have Mourinho, who can be said to be the best coach in the league.

    ***************************************************  ****

    After the half-season league is over, the World Youth Championship is about to begin. The Chinese youth team, which has arrived in Argentina, is about to play its first game in the group stage. However, before the game begins, all Chinese fans are watching.  Not in Argentina, but in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the headquarters of the AFC.

    There is no other reason, just because of one thing - June 16, the day before the start of the 13th World Youth Football Championship, the 2002 World Cup ceremony will be held on this day!

    Saudi Arabia, Iran, Bahrain, Iraq, Thailand, China, the United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, Qatar, and Oman, the top ten gathered together, waiting for the announcement of the final draw ceremony!

    Maybe this kind of competition is really not that good in the eyes of the world.  When these teams are brought to the world, they probably won¡¯t attract much attention from fans from other continents, but for Asian fans, this is the day they care about most every four years, and it¡¯s related to what will happen to the teams they support.  Entering the World Cup!

    The twelve fan bars around Yunjia Fengyun Stadium were packed with seats. For the first time, Yunjia fans packed these twelve bars on a night without a game!

    Naturally, the "Milan Bar" that has almost become the exclusive bar of Yunjia Tianyu Club today welcomes not fans, but the entire Yunjia Tianyu gathering from the boss to the players!

    In addition to Deco, even the two foreign players Weah and Grosso also followed other players to this bar. Maybe they are not interested in the draw of the top ten games, but they will not miss this opportunity to help other players.  Opportunities for rapport.

    Pei Wei and Su Mei also came.  Xiao Chuanchuan was left in the care of Su Meidi's mother, so they could arrive smoothly.

    Mourinho is also here. He was specially invited by Pei Wei.

    Before eight o'clock, everyone in Yunjia Tianyu was already here, waiting for the lottery ceremony to begin.

    Xu and Zhang Long of the Chinese Football Association have arrived in Kuala Lumpur five days in advance. Draws like this are often not that simple. Whether you can get a good lottery often indicates how well a country's football association can perform in the AFC.

    The draw for this top ten competition is also divided based on grade.  The basis for division is based on the FIFA ranking of each team. The Chinese national team has undoubtedly become the first-tier team due to its outstanding performance in the Asian Cup. As the only team to enter  Among the top four West Asian teams, Saudi Arabia has also been classified as a first-tier team.

    The second-tier teams include Iran and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Qatar are the third-tier teams, the fourth-tier teams are Iraq and Uzbekistan, and Oman and Thailand are the fifth-tier teams.

    After two teams, Japan and South Korea, directly entered the World Cup finals, seven of the top ten teams were from West Asia, and only China was from East Asia.  There is only Thailand in Southeast Asia, plus Uzbekistan, a Central Asian country. From the list of the top ten, you can see why West Asian football has an advantage in the AFC - maybe their first-class teams are only Saudi Arabia and Iran that can compete with East Asia.  The top three compete, but they have a large number of second-rate teams as their backbone!

    The drawing of lots is about to begin.  The players all started to get nervous. Of course they hope that the Chinese team can get a better lottery - only with hope can there be pressure and nervousness!

    Pei Wei was not too worried. He and Su Mei were sitting a little further back. They talked softly and looked up at the TV screen from time to time.

    Pei Wei's relaxation makes sense, because he knows that this draw for the top ten venues is the best draw in the history of the Chinese team's World Cup - the four opponents in the group are far from the Chinese national team in terms of strength.  , let alone the current national team.

    The drawing of lots has begun.  The first two teams to be drawn were the Chinese team in Group A and Saudi Arabia in Group B.

    Pei Wei smiled.  This draw was the same as what he remembered, and he also remembered that this draw was a rare diplomatic success for the Chinese Football Association in the AFC - they were successfully placed with the weaker second-tier team UAE, which allowedLang and Saudi Arabia were fighting in another group.

    Soon, Pei Wei's smile solidified on his face. When AFC Chairman Veerappan drew the second team in Group A, which was the second-tier team, a clear word came out of his mouth.  The word - "iran!"

    Iran!  The Chinese team and Iran are in the same group!

    Pei Wei opened his mouth wide, and the cigarette in his mouth fell silently.  Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work
