Chapter 76 Back to Holland(2/2)

Zhang Jun and the others did not lie to him. In early August, he received a letter from the Warrendam Club in the Netherlands, hoping that he could go to Warrendam for a trial. He was excited and was about to ask coach Bai Hongfei for leave and congratulations. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the coach saying to him with an excited look: "You are here just right! Let me tell you good news. In this World College Games held in South Korea, the superiors decided to send a real college football team to participate! They chose our school! You will wear the national team uniform to win glory for the country!"

Li Yongle was stunned for a moment. This was indeed a great good news. It was a glory that many people dream of for representing the national team in a world-wide game! Unexpectedly, a college student, he wore the national team's jersey earlier than Zhang Jun and Yang Pan.

"Oh, by the way. Are you doing something, Li Yongle?" Bai Hongfei noticed that it was Li Yongle who took the initiative to find him.

"No, nothing is wrong." Li Yongle made a decision at this moment, and would rather give up the opportunity to go to Warrendham for a trial training than miss the honor of representing the Chinese team. One is just an opportunity, the other is glory.

Then, under the leadership of former Beijing team head coach Jin Xuyang, the team started training camp in preparation for the soon-to-be-starting college sports meeting. In mid-August, the R-Grand Football Team represented China and set foot on the land of South Korea.

Since it was the first time that all college students were sent to participate in the competition, some media also reported on this. Most people just watched the fun. One person was very interested in Li Yongle, and even tried every means to ask Chen Wei to bring him the video of Li Yongle at the college sports meeting. This person is Qiu Suhui, who is still leading the team training in Maojiawan, Sichuan.

In the Universiade football match, Li Yongle, as the main midfielder of the Chinese team, wore the captain's armband. His first game can be described as stunning. One goal, one assist, blocking success rate is as high as 70%, 80 passes, 72%, 10 shots, 6 shots, 6 fouls, and 4 violations. The Chinese team was able to defeat the American team 2:0 because it was entirely due to his dispatch in the midfield. Under his leadership, this team that cooperated with tacitly showed the momentum of a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger, and the whole game made the Americans go around.

But even if he performed well, the Chinese team still lacked attention. At this time, Zhang Jun's transfer storm was at a critical moment, so the news of the Chinese team's competition in the Universiade was naturally placed in the most inconspicuous corner. Even though Li Yongle was amazed, no reporter would have exclaimed in the newspaper, "The birth of another genius!"

They silently fought for the international reputation of Chinese football in South Korea. With two remaining group matches, the Chinese team won and lost, and advanced to the second place in the group. They encountered the Japanese team in the quarterfinals.

Due to the systematicization of youth and high school football, the Japanese team is considered one of the most likely teams to win the championship in this Universiade football event. The Japanese team won all three games in the group stage and proved their strength to people and showed off their sensation.

Unfortunately, the Japanese who dreamed of a championship met Li Yongle, who aimed at Zhang Jun.

At the beginning of the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese team tasted Li Yongle's strength. In a fight, their number one scorer was injured and forced to end up because they could not squeeze Li Yongle. Since then, the Japanese had to face Li Yongle's mountain again and again. After the game, their head coach also admitted that the Japanese team was defeated by one person, who was the No. 10 of the Chinese team.

In the 30th minute of the second half, Li Yongle took the ball in the middle circle. Seeing that the Japanese goalkeeper was too far ahead, he directly took a kick and shot!

The football drilled into the goal from the gap between the hand and the beam of the goalkeeper who was retreating backward, like a tomahawk cruise missile, and made a precise blow!

The Japanese were completely defeated by the best goal in this competition in the subsequent time, and they could no longer organize any effective offense. In the end, they lost 0:1 and the Chinese team advanced to the semi-finals!

The Chinese media obviously lacked preparations for Chinese college students to defeat Japan. After reacting, they all reported this game in a big way compared to before, and boldly predicted that the Chinese team could reach the finals. But perhaps because they felt the "high expectations" of the domestic media and the pressure was too high, the Chinese team lost to the strong and headed Greek team in the semi-finals and stopped in the semi-finals. What's worse, the absolute main captain Li Yongle sprained his ankle in the game and would miss the three and four finals.

The Chinese team, which lacked Li Yongle, eventually lost to the host South Korean team in the third and fourth finals, and once again continued the embarrassing record of "not winning against South Korea". Despite this, this was an amazing breakthrough in the college game, and Li Yongle was awarded the title of Best Player.

The players who returned to the school were welcomed heroically by their classmates. Bai Hongfei, as the assistant coach of the Chinese team, was given a salary increase, and the bachelors in the team also seized the opportunity to solve their personal problems. Only Li Yongle still insisted on practicing for himself every day and was still single.

The sensation only belongs to the campus. To the outside world, they are still a group of college students. They are pillars of the country's four modernizations construction, not football players.

Qiu Suhui took out the videotape from the machine and stretched his waist: "It's another person related to Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun, who are the people who play football with you!"

※※※

Just after Li Yongle made a breakthrough in the World College Games for China, the Dutch Premier League 2003/04 season also kicked off. This season, because he scored in the League Cup and was more financially affluent, Adriansey has introduced several players with good strength but not very famous: Misha Salden, who is 28 years old, plays as a defensive midfielder on the right, and has excellent skills.

Raoul Henar, a 23-year-old black forward, is a fellow villager with Seedorf. He has strong shooting ability and is very impactful. He wears the No. 9 jersey and will become Zhang Jun's partner on the front line.

In addition, Rice's youth team once again achieved great success, providing multiple potential players to the first team. Among them, the 18-year-old Wing has impressed Adrians with his performance in the warm-up match. He will replace Yang Pan's vacancy on the right side, and the number he chose is naturally the No. 25 that Yang Pan had worn last season. He is also very optimistic about his skill and his only worry is whether his tender shoulders can withstand the pressure people often compare with him with Yang Pan after wearing the jersey left by Yang Pan.

Dion Esajas, 21 years old, has just been promoted from the youth team, playing on the left, with amazing speed and excellent dribbling skills. He showed a calmness that was not as good as his age when playing football, but his shooting skills still need to be strengthened. He will be Heville's substitute.

Reginald Faria, the 20-year-old will be the team's substitute midfielder.

Of course, the team is not just entering and not leaving. First of all, the boss Horns would not agree. The 28-year-old Bartre was signed by Udrecht for 750,000 euros. Bayes was signed by Helenfin for 550,000 euros by Helenfin. When Zhang Jun returned to the team, he did not find Bayes, so he learned from Kozel that Bayes was sold by the club because of a conflict with Horns. This made him very sad. Last season, Yang Pan was the team's assist king, and Bayes was the second assist. Many of his goals came from Bayes' passes. Two months ago, they celebrated the success of relegation and the cup championship together, but now they are all for their own purposes.

Zhang Jun knew that Bayes, who had a good popularity in the team, would definitely not want to leave, all because of this fat man Horns! He began to feel dissatisfied with the chairman in his heart, this unscrupulous businessman who only knew money!

The first round of the league faced Roda at home. This ordinary Dutch Super League match attracted widespread attention. The Dutch National Television chose it as Sunday's live broadcast. Needless to say, the Chinese media also came to Italy, and several reporters, including Andre Cagliani, an intern reporter of Milan Sports.

Li Yan should have paid attention to Yang Pan in Italy, but he still flew to Warrendam, and everyone looked at Veronica. What would he do after a nightmare summer? Can his left foot really not be able to withstand the injury anymore?

Questions and expectations gather in Veronica, which can accommodate only 6,000 people.

※※※

In the team's locker room, Kozel always turned his head to look at Zhang Jun, looking at him, "Is there anything you have to do, Seth?" Zhang Jun asked him on his own initiative.

"Uh, are you really okay?" Zhang Jun has always smiled since he returned to Warrendam, but he could still see Zhang Jun sitting alone in the locker room without saying a word. He must be very sad. He had already stepped onto the Italian League One stadium, but was pushed out. Is he unwilling to accept it or discouraged? Kozel doesn't know, maybe they both.

Zhang Jun smiled again: "Pass the ball to me, I'll score the goal."

Is this a declaration?

Ochu left, Yang Pan left, and Bayes also left. Zhang Jun’s best friend in Warrendam was the only one left. After playing this season, he must go back to Ajax. However, Zhang Jun renewed his contract with the club until 2007. Don’t he feel lonely? Currently, in this team, he and Heville are the only ones who can send the ball to him. The others have just joined the team and have not yet figured out Zhang Jun’s habits.

Warren Dam is preparing to say goodbye to Roda from the first round.

※※※

The 6,000-person small stadium Veronica was full, and the fans held up the banner with Zhang Jun's avatar to support Zhang Jun in this way. There was even a giant banner hanging under the stands, which read: "Zhang Jun, please hit them back with a goal!"

Li Yan once said to Andre: "Unless of Veronica, you will never understand Zhang Jun's position in the hearts of the fans, what he means to this weak team." Now Andre is here, and he also understands. The results of the Milan laboratory are authoritative, but the fans here will not remember the report several years later, but will firmly remember every goal Zhang Jun scored on this field.

The players appeared, and Zhang Jun was still at the last one to play, and the fans also gave Zhang Jun the warmest cheers. "Ula! Zhang-Jun!!"

When Andre heard this cheer, he made up his mind. He would report to the agency tomorrow and apply to be a reporter stationed in the Netherlands, focusing on Zhang Jun's performance in the Netherlands.

Zhang Jun raised his hand and waved to the fans, which caused even greater cheers.

"He is Veronica's number one star." A Dutch reporter sighed after the game.

In this game, Adriansen abandoned the 451 formation that had been spent in one season due to personnel reasons, but instead arranged the 442-stop position. The goalkeeper was still Robert Van Westerop; the defenders from left to right were Leeflang, Luirink, Huisman, and Holwijn; the left forward still had Herwell.

Heuvel started, the two central defenders were Keizer and Salden who transferred. The right forward who attracted attention was 18-year-old Wing. Can he make people forget Yang Pan in the first game? After introducing a powerful forward, Adriansey also lined up a double forward. Zhang Jun and Hener partnered for the first time. After losing Yang Pan and Bayes assists, what kind of answers will this front line bring to people?

Rhoda is not a weak team, which can be seen from their sixth place last season. But in this game they still became supporting roles, and everyone is talking about Zhang Jun and Wolun Dam.

Zhang Jun personally put the football on the kickoff point and then supported it with his hands, making its logo face him. At the beginning of the league, he also wanted to start a new beginning.

I was somewhat moved, Yang Pan and Bayes were all gone, and the person standing in front of the ball waiting for the kickoff was also a strange face. A season has passed...

"beep!"

※※※

Once again, Rhoda is not a weak team, which can be seen from their sixth place last season.

Louis Link blocked Roda's fourth threatening shot in ten minutes. Zhang Jun and Hena lacked tacit understanding in the frontcourt cooperation. Because they were deeply affected by transfers and physical examinations throughout the summer, Zhang Jun and the team only practiced for a week before playing. Not only did they not match the passes with Hena, Wen, and Salden, but also failed to match the shot.

Kozell is not yet able to become an offensive organizer. Salden has the ability, but he has only been on the team for half a month, and everything takes time.

Kozel would unconsciously move backwards, while Salden, who was eager to perform, rushed to the front again, and his formation unknowingly changed from a parallel position 442 to a diamond midfielder. This is not the result Adrians wanted. Wen lacks defensive ability and experience. If he is a single midfielder, he is prone to lose sight of the other side. In addition to his excellent skills, Salden also has good defensive ability. Being with Kozel can reduce the pressure on the defense, but now...

Chaos in the frontcourt offense will lead to chaos in the backcourt.

Zhang Jun could see clearly in front that Hener had run back to participate in the defense, and he was still cruising in front. For him, scoring goals was the only purpose. Now maybe scoring a goal can stabilize the situation, and someone needed to let everyone see hope. Since the teammate's ball cannot be passed to him well, he would grab a ball himself.

The player who took the ball wanted to break through Zhang Jun, but Zhang Jun didn't move, and the ball hit his leg and bounced out. The player who lost the ball wanted to turn around and grab it back, but how could his turn speed be comparable to Zhang Jun's starting speed?

Zhang Jun fought with a hand, blocked the opponent behind him, and then knocked the ball forward and accelerated! He swept across Roda's defense like the wind!

"Stop him!"

The first player slammed the ball! Zhang Jun pulled his right foot and easily flashed. Then the second player wanted to use a blocking foul to force Zhang Jun to stop, but Zhang Jun gently poked the ball to the right, jumped and accelerated from the left to chase the ball! The man ball passed!

There was still some distance from football, and the third defender decided to tackle the ball. But Zhang Jun accelerated again, took the ball with his right toe, jumped over the man and entered the penalty area!

Three people in a row!

The goalkeeper attacked! He rushed towards the ball that was driven by Zhang Jun, but Zhang Jun's speed was obviously faster than him, and he accelerated again. With his left toe, the ball slid from the goalkeeper's hands! In fact, Zhang Jun could actually drag his feet and let the goalkeeper knock him down and give him a penalty. But that might be considered a smart forward, but he would miss a great goal. So Zhang Jun jumped with his feet, jumped over the goalkeeper, and then struggled to catch up with the ball, turning around and shooting at a very small angle!

The fourth defender had already returned to the front of the goal, but he ran a little bit and passed the ball. The football hit the net at the far end and the ball entered!!

Zhang Jun started from intercepting the ball and ran on a diagonal line. He ran for 50 meters long, crossed four people in a row, and scored the ball! An incredible goal! A fantastic goal!

Zhang Jun rolled up from the ground, then rushed to the camera on the sidelines, shouted at the camera, venting his depression, grievance and dissatisfaction for more than half a month.

Zhang Jun's action ignited the Veronica Stadium, and six thousand people shouted Zhang Jun's name in unison. "Zhang-jun! Zhang-jun!!! Zhang-jun!!!"

This is Zhang Jun's home court. Who would have thought that the Milan laboratory sentenced him to death two weeks ago? Zhang Jun is using his way to fight against the so-called authority and proves to the world that Zhang Jun can continue playing football and score very, very beautiful goals!

Andre was infected by the atmosphere at the scene, so he took out his phone and called back to the headquarters. "Listen! This is the report Andre sent back to you at Warrendam's scene!" He raised his phone to the stands.

"Long live! Zhang Jun!! Zhang Jun!!!"
