Chapter 191 I Can't Wait! [2300 monthly ticket plus update, please subscribe to the monthly ticket]

The national team's first training in Chongqing directly participated in a large number, which caused many international players who had just returned from the league to suffer.

But everyone also knows that this is to adjust the state and cope with the next Asian Cup.

Yang Yang, who many people were worried about, did not get tired in the high-intensity training of the national team, because this kind of training intensity is not strong compared with the first team of Ajax, and he has adapted to it long ago.

Seeing Yang Yang's relaxed appearance in coping with the training with ease, many international players can't help but look at him with admiration.

Can represent Ajax play in the Champions League final and score the lore goal, how can it be in vain?
In the national team's first warm-up match, they beat Lebanon 705-[-], but Yang Yang didn't make any performance. He came off the bench after No.[-] minutes in the second half, when the score was already [-]-[-].

Alihan's purpose of arranging Yang Yang to play at this time is very simple. He hopes that he can get acquainted with his teammates, find out the rhythm of the game, and at the same time use Yang Yang to adapt to the four-three-three formation he envisioned.

The day after the match against Lebanon, the national team took a flight back to Beijing and went directly to the Xianghe base for training.

At noon on July [-]th, the team flew to Hohhot to prepare for the warm-up match against the UAE the next day.

This time Yang Yang still didn't start.

The starting lineup of the national team is still [-], and almost all the main players are sent to the starting lineup. As a result, the first half played badly, and the two sides scored [-]-[-]. During the intermission, the Chinese team changed three players in a row, which directly caused the team to be unstable. The defense made a mistake, and the opponent seized the opportunity to score a goal.

Then the national football team began to counterattack, but still failed to score. Instead, the opponent seized the opportunity again in the No. 60 minute and further expanded the score to [-]-[-].

Just when the morale of the UAE was high, the national team finally pulled back a game.

Just 3 minutes before the second goal of the United Arab Emirates, Zheng Zhi took advantage of a free kick in the frontcourt and scored directly, rewriting the score to one to two.

No. At 70 minutes, Alihan made another substitution. Yang Yang, Sun Jihai and Zhou Ting replaced each other. The team's tactics changed to four-three-three again, with Yang Yang and Zheng Bin as the two wings and Li Yi as the single forward.

The three midfielders are Zhao Junzhe, Zhou Haibin and Sun Jihai.

The right back behind Yang Yang is Wei Xin. The defense is quite solid, but the offensive contribution is not great.

Ali Han's instruction to Yang Yang was to try his best to attack the opponent's left flank.

Yang Yang, who had held back his energy for a long time, and his desire for the game was getting stronger and stronger, did not live up to the high expectations of the head coach. As soon as he came on the field, he used a very sharp right-hander to pass the ball, directly passing the left back of the United Arab Emirates, and won unanimous applause from the fans.

Later, Yang Yang became more and more active on the right. However, whenever the pass from the midfield could reach his feet, he could create a threat. With his sharp speed and excellent breakthrough ability, he frequently messed up the defense of the UAE. In No. 803 minutes, he made a pass from the right to the penalty area. Li Yi scored a point in front of the goal to equalize the score.

Yang Yang's outstanding performance quickly attracted the defensive attention of the UAE, but even so, Yang Yang still took advantage of a breakthrough from the right at the 808th minute and rushed to the bottom line. Although he failed to get the support of his teammates, he still earned a corner kick.

Subsequently, this corner kick allowed Sun Jihai to be pulled down by the opponent in the penalty area. The referee awarded a penalty kick without hesitation. Zheng Zhi made the penalty and expanded the score to [-]-[-].

Two goals behind and a tenacious reversal, the performance of the second warm-up match of the national football team was not satisfactory.

Especially the team's defensive end is very worrying.

On the contrary, it was the young player Yang Yang's performance after coming off the bench that won the unanimous approval of domestic media reporters and fans.

…………

…………

On the second day after the national football team returned to Beijing from Hohhot, the Xianghe base was opened to the public, welcoming a large number of media reporters and fans, as well as Adidas, the sponsor of the national team.

Every season, before every major competition, sponsors will create a new set of outfits for their teams, and Adidas, the sponsor of the national team, is no exception.

The Asian Cup jersey they made for the national football team this time is just a minor change. Compared with the previous jersey, the curve of the chest has changed slightly. It looks like two curved knives connected together, and it is the same color as the jersey. It is all white. If you don’t look carefully, it’s really hard to spot.

But what is really interesting is that just a few days ago in Portugal, Greece wore the same jersey and staged a dark horse miracle in the European Cup. Rehhagel's team went all the way to the final, and center Charisteas scored the winning goal.

It is worth mentioning that Charisteas was quickly valued by Ajax after his outstanding performance in the European Cup, and announced after the European Cup final that he officially introduced the European Cup champion from Werder Bremen.

This is a blockbuster signing after Ibrahimovic left the team.

Adidas chose the same Greek jersey for the Chinese team at this time. This is undoubtedly a very good meaning. I hope that the Chinese team can succeed in winning the Asian Cup like Greece.

If this is the case, then Adidas has made a lot of money.

In addition to inviting national football players to display the new national team jerseys, the president of Adidas China also brought a special task from Adidas headquarters, and presented Yang Yang with specially tailored boots.

"We are very honored that Yang Yang has been wearing our Adidas football boots for the Chinese national team and playing for Ajax in the past year."

"And this time, in order to better show Yang Yang's characteristics and give full play to his advantages in speed and personal breakthrough, we specially tailored a Chinese red F50 boot for him."

Following the solemn announcement of the president of Adidas China, everyone could not help but turn their attention to Yang Yang.

Yang Yang was already wearing this pair of boots that were completely tailored for him according to the size of his feet, stood on the stage, and performed a few fancy ball kicks on the spot, which can be regarded as a demonstration of the role of the boots.

But many media reporters and international players present were surprised, even people from the Football Association and the national team were surprised, because they didn't know about this before.

It even seems that the most important thing for Adidas on this trip is not to send new jerseys to the national team, but to show the boots to Yang Yang, and this is also the first Chinese football player who can get Adidas to sponsor boots.

These are the boots specially provided for top stars in the European Cup, which shows how much Adidas attaches importance to Yang Yang.

Yang Yang was not surprised at all, because Raiola had already told him about it.

The sponsorship negotiations between Ajax and Adidas went smoothly, but due to Mino Raiola's operation, Yang Yang's personal sponsorship was negotiated separately. For the time being, Adidas is one step closer to Nike, but the two sides did not agree on the specific price.

Adidas hopes to sign Yang Yang at a price of 30 euros per year. Considering Yang Yang's age, there is a certain increase clause in the contract, which can reach up to 50 euros.

The boot sponsorship of 50 euros is definitely a blockbuster in Chinese football.

More importantly, Yang Yang is only 17 years old this year, and his future is bright.

But Raiola has not yet finally nodded, and negotiations are still continuing.

In a subsequent interview with the media, Yang Yang said that he did not participate in the contract renewal negotiations. After returning to China, he has been working hard to train and improve himself. Everything is handled by the agent and the club.

"I am very happy to receive the Adidas football boots, at least, this represents the official affirmation of Adidas to me."

Yang Yang said it was normal for him to be a substitute in the two warm-up matches after he joined the team.

"The coach has talked to me about this matter. After all, I am a newcomer. He thinks that I should get familiar with the team as soon as possible. I agree with him. Although I am a substitute, I believe that I can contribute to the national team."

For the Asian Cup, Yang Yang said confidently that he is ready.

"I am full of hunger for the game. I have also mentioned this to the coach. I have not participated in an official game for a while. The arrival of the Asian Cup makes my blood boil. I can't even wait."

"Before the game, I have no way to say what will happen. I can only say, go all out and do my best. I will do my best to help the team and keep the Asian Cup in China!"

As for Yang Yang's statement, the national team coach Ali Han also said that he was very clear.

"His condition is very good. He is eager to participate in the game. I understand it very well, but I still need to consider more. He is only 17 years old and his physical fitness is still lacking compared to adults. Therefore, we still need to carefully consider it."

"But I believe he's ready."

Yang Yang, as the only player among the 25 national football players who received sponsorship from Adidas, made the international football players in the team very envious. Even though some international football players who have been famous for many years did not say it clearly, they were obviously very jealous when they saw the few pairs of Chinese red boots sent by Adidas.

But it is a pity that after Adidas obtained the size of Yang Yang's feet from Ajax, it was tailor-made for him. Others can't wear it at all and can only envy it.

The Football Association feels very helpless about Adidas sponsoring Yang Yang, because Yang Yang is not a registered player of the Football Association, and theoretically the Football Association has no jurisdiction over him at all.

Of course, they can choose not to recruit Yang Yang, but as Yang Yang's popularity among domestic fans is getting higher and higher, and his performance in the European arena is getting better and better, the Football Association really has no way not to recruit him, unless they want to cause public outrage.

As for intervening in Yang Yang's business operations, let alone think about it.

On the contrary, Yang Yang had the simplest idea. Whether it was sponsorship or the main position, it didn't matter to him.

The most important thing is that he must improve himself as soon as possible, and seize every opportunity that arises.

From the Almere youth team to the Ajax second team to the first team, he has always been like this, because he always believes in one sentence.

Opportunity awaits those who are prepared.
