Chapter 255 Private party after the game
After defeating South Korea at home and qualifying one round ahead of schedule, the Chinese team rushed to Australia for the last away game non-stop.
Both teams in this game have advanced to the World Cup finals in advance, so this game is a rare training opportunity for the two teams.
Both the Chinese team and the Australian team sent substitute lineups. In the end, China lost the last game of the top 0 match 3-10 away.
After a year of World Cup qualifiers, the top 10 in Asia finally came to an end.
The final result was that the two teams that directly qualified in Group A were Japan, Iran, and Iraq qualified for the play-offs.
The two teams that appear directly in Group B are Australia, China, and South Korea to qualify for the play-offs.
The final stage of the game will start in Brazil on June 6 next year, and the most important thing for the head coach of the Chinese team before that is the World Cup group stage draw ceremony held in Brazil in December this year.
*****
Although the Asian World Cup qualifiers are not yet completely over, for the four teams that have successfully advanced, the long and difficult qualifiers are over.
The next step is to wait for the lottery. After the lottery is over, a targeted warm-up match can be arranged according to the result of the lottery.
After the game, the Chinese team flew back to China collectively. Stan declined the interview request from the media waiting at the airport on the grounds that the players were tired.
After returning to the base, the Chinese team held a small party, only the players and staff of the national team could participate, a total of about 50 people.
On the party, Stan first thanked the logistics staff, the medical team, the game video analysis team, the physiotherapy team, and the team chef for the away game.
"If you want souvenirs, you can choose one of the two." After speaking, Stan took out the promotion celebration T-shirt, and the players decided to give it to the staff.
"Or my autograph," Stein said.
"T-shirt," someone yelled.
"I remind you that my autographed photos will be collectible in the future," Stein said with a smile.
A brother from Shandong said: "I want Stan's autographed photo."
The eldest brother's words were simple and direct, which made everyone laugh, but most of them still wanted T-shirts.
Finally Stan said, "Okay, give me both".
After Stan said a few words, everyone started to eat. It was a buffet of Chinese and Western styles. The national team traveled here and there, and the team chef prepared the buffet every time, which was more convenient.
Everyone ate and chatted. This kind of gathering was very enjoyable, but there was a topic that no one dared to mention, but it was still in the throat. That is, the current 23 people cannot be the 23 people who will go to Brazil next year.
Except for Li Qiao, Zhou Dun, and Wei Xiao, who are the absolute main players, none of them can guarantee that they will be able to follow Stan to Brazil next year.
No one thought about such a question before the final against South Korea. Now that the dust has settled, everyone has their own thoughts.
In the end, someone had the courage to speak out everyone's thoughts by drinking some wine—everyone should drink more tonight, and the next time the 23 people get together again, I don't know when it will be.
Qi Bing, who was ignorant of the world, said, "Why did you say that?"
No one answered Qi Bing, Qi Bing himself didn't know what he said, until Sun Jihai gently pushed him behind him, and then he shut up.
But since someone brought it up, the atmosphere on the scene has changed a bit. No one wants to be able to play in the qualifiers but not go to Brazil.
Stan doesn't like people who hide and tuck, he comes over and says, "It's nothing, you can talk about anything at a private party".
It was Li Weifeng, the big brother in the team, who came out to smooth things over, "I will talk about next year's affairs, next year, if you are drunk today, you are not allowed to talk about future affairs today."
Stein said: "I can't give you any guarantees. Even Li Qiao, Li Weifeng, and Wei Xiao may not be able to go to Brazil with me, but what I can assure you is that as long as you work hard and play well, the door of the national team will always be open to you."
"Really, coach, isn't Li Qiao your son?" Qi Bing said.
When the words came out, everyone laughed.
"Little monkey is so tricky and lazy, the national team will not welcome it in the future," Stan said with a smile.
Jihai on the side said: "Little monkey, work hard, next year you can fight for brother Jihai's left back."
Although Qi Bing usually likes to make jokes, he dare not be presumptuous in front of Li Weifeng and Sun Jihai.
"Forget it, brother, I still want to get back my right back",
Chen Fei was not convinced when he heard it, and said: "That depends on whether you have the strength or not."
"Okay, stop arguing, drink today, and go to the court tomorrow if you are not convinced," Stein said.
*****
After the party is over, the players return to the base dormitory in groups of two. The base dormitories are all double rooms, except for the coach's room.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, there was a knock on the door of Qi Bing and Qi Qi's dormitory, and it was Stan who opened the door.
"Coach, what's the matter?"
"Qi Bing, come out for a moment",
Qi Rate, who was playing games on the bed, poked his head, but didn't dare to ask any questions.
Qi Bing and Stan walked to the training ground. The weather in June was a bit stuffy, but it was still very pleasant to be on the empty court at 6 pm with the breeze blowing.
Stan has never talked to Qi Bing alone, and Qi Bing is very disturbed. He is no longer the main force of the national team. He is really afraid that what Stan tells him is, "Qi Bing, you will not come in the future."
The two walked to the center of the training field, and Stan looked around and said, "There's no one here."
"Why, coach, you are Yu Zecheng"?
Stan chuckled, "I'm not joking, let me ask you, you have to tell me the truth."
Qi Bing stood at attention, "I promise to be loyal to Coach Stan."
"What a mess this is," Stan thought to himself.
"Honestly, I changed the main right back, have you ever hated me?"
Qi Bing was stunned for a moment at first, but then reacted quickly, "How is it possible, coach, I can't hate you, father, mother, it's not as good as Stan."
"Don't change the subject, there is no one here, tell the truth",
"The truth is-a little unhappy, but the word "hate" is really out of the question, I am a professional player."
Stan believed it.
"Qi Bing, you are still very important to the national team",
Qi Bing chuckled, "Stan, there are no outsiders here, you don't need to lie, Chen Fei is much better than me, I can see it myself."
"I don't mean Chen Fei, everyone knows that Chen Fei is better than you",
Qi Bing almost fell down in embarrassment like a person in a Japanese manga, "Stan, you can't just speak like this directly", Qi Bing thought.
"I mean Sun Jihai",
"What happened to Brother Sun Jihai"?
"Jihai will be 37 next year. He is not the most suitable left back for the Chinese team in the World Cup in Brazil. Do you understand?"
Qi Bing also understood, "So do you have a suitable new candidate in mind?"
Stan stared at Qi Bing.
"I"?Qi Bing pointed to himself and said.
"right".
"But I have been a right back since I was a child",
"Is it still divided into left back and right back now?"
Qi Bing was silent for a while, he understood that the requirements for players are becoming more and more comprehensive now, and it is indeed impossible to divide them in such detail.
"The German team's Lahm can play both full-backs. The current trend is like this. A full-back who plays with one side is already unqualified," Stein said.
After hearing Stan's words, Qi Bing said: "Okay, then I will try, as long as I can go to Brazil, even if you ask me to play goalkeeper, I will do it."
Qi Bing felt that next year he would go to Brazil to have fun, and he was very happy. He said happily, "Is this why you found me?"
"Haha, don't get too excited," Stan said.
Qi Bing's heart sank again, "What else is there?"
Stan pretended to be mysterious and said: "There is a business secret, you have to make sure I tell you, you can't tell others."
Qi Bing thought: "I don't do business."
"Coach, I promise", Qi Bing made a swearing gesture while speaking.
"Guangzhou Tianbao will cooperate with Ajax in the Netherlands to develop China's youth training market, but it is still in the negotiation stage",
Qi Bing listened carefully, and Stan said, "Didn't you always like Ajax?"
Qi Bing nodded, but the business cooperation has nothing to do with him, since he has already passed the age of youth training.
"As a subsidiary condition of the cooperation, the Chinese side can send a player to Ajax's first team for training. If they meet their requirements, they can stay in the first team to play. If they don't, they can also participate in the Dutch second-tier league in the second team."
Having said that, the fool should also understand, "Coach, you recommended me"?
Stan nodded.
Qi Bing jumped on Stan's body, "Coach, I love you to death".
"Come down quickly, my leg is going to be broken",
After calming down, Qi Bing still couldn't restrain his excitement, his whole body trembled slightly, Ajax, that was his childhood dream.
"Coach, do I count as going through the back door?"
"Of course, it doesn't matter, but it doesn't matter if you go through the back door. When Li Qiao went to Dynamo Kiev, he also went through the back door, but as long as you work hard, you can still become an excellent player."
"Coach, do you mean that as long as I work hard, I can also marry the club manager's daughter like Li Qiao?"
Stan nearly vomited blood.
"Qi Bing, you are promising, okay?"
Qi Bing chuckled, "Coach, I'm just joking, you know, I have a girlfriend."
"I'm not talking about this, I sent you to Holland to let you play football well",
"Coach, I'm not kidding anymore, don't worry, I'm usually not serious, but if I can go to train with my childhood dream team, I will definitely use 24 hours a day as 48 hours."
"It's still human," Stein said.
After speaking, the two walked on the training ground for a while, and then Qi Bing and Stan went back to their rooms. After 12 midnight, a new challenge came again.
