Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 34: The Chinese Super League Opening Match is Coming! Opponent: Shandong Luneng! (Please Add to Favorites)
2013 3 Month 2 Day.

Evergrande also resumed preparations for the opening match of the Chinese Super League after ending their holiday early.

Guangzhou Evergrande's opponent in the first round of the Chinese Super League is Shandong Luneng.

As a traditional powerhouse in the Chinese Super League, Shandong Luneng has won the Chinese top league title three times, the FA Cup six times, and the Chinese Super League Cup once.

However, all those glories are now in the past.

Last season, Shandong Luneng spent heavily to bring in foreign players such as Masena, Antar, and Piskuric, hoping to compete with Guangzhou Evergrande and even challenge for the AFC Champions League title. However, to everyone's surprise, after 30 rounds of matches, Shandong Luneng achieved an extremely poor record of 8 wins, 12 draws, and 10 losses, accumulating only 36 points.

The team's 12th place ranking in the league, and even its time in the relegation zone, gave many Shandong fans a real scare.

Such poor results naturally prompted Shandong Luneng to immediately begin a purge.

The team's head coach was dismissed, and then the Shandong Luneng management followed the model of Guangzhou Evergrande's famous coach, spending a lot of money to hire the former Yugoslavian famous coach Zlatkoantić!

This veteran coach, born in 1948, may not be as good as the Silver Fox, but his resume is definitely top-notch.

Starting in 1983, he coached teams such as Atlético Madrid and Real Zaragoza.

In the 1991-1992 season, he led Atletico Madrid to the La Liga title, the team's first championship in many years.

He also led Real Zaragoza to victory over Barcelona in the 1994-1995 Copa del Rey final.

From January until now, in preparation for this heavyweight opening match against Evergrande, the veteran coach has successively brought in Niculae and McGowan, and retained captain Antar, thus creating a super attacking trident composed entirely of foreign players!

In addition, the team has added Jin Jingdao, as well as a group of super young talents from Shandong Luneng's youth training system, including Luo Senwen, Wei Shihao, Qi Tianyu, Cui Wei, and Mi Haolun.

Many domestic football commentators believe that Guangzhou Evergrande's biggest rival this year is Shandong Luneng, led by Antić!

Forehead.
Outsiders are hyping up Shandong Luneng to the point that they feel it's like comparing Qiao Feng in the north to Murong Fu in the south, just like Evergrande.

But the result?

Despite the promise of serious preparation, after everyone had lined up, Coach Lippi casually remarked, "Just let Madanoni handle it!"
After saying that, the old man took out a cigar from his pocket and happily enjoyed the bright morning sunshine in Guangzhou.

No wonder the old man didn't take it seriously!
In fact, the old man really had no reason to take that guy named Antić or Shandong Luneng seriously!
"Hey! Xiao Hao, what's wrong with you? Why are your eyes bloodshot and spiky?"

Madanoni's training was very simple, consisting of recovery exercises like rondo and passing the ball between groups.

then
After Su Hao, Qin Sheng, Zheng Zhi, Zhang Linpeng, and Feng Xiaoting gathered together, Qin Sheng, who always had the sharpest eyes, suddenly spoke up.

"Hmm? Oh, it seems that's true! Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Zheng Zhi said!

"Are you sick? Do you want me to go with you to see the team doctor?"

Zhang Moss, who was now completely tied to Su Hao because of that kick, said!
"Xiao Hao, I know you're at an age where some things are fascinating, but remember, you have to be moderate in everything you do. If you're not moderate, it will affect your development—I mean, your performance the next day—and if you do too much, it might affect you later! It'll be too late to regret it then!"

Oh shit!

Everyone else was concerned about Su Hao, but Qin Sheng was up to his old tricks again.

However, in the past, when Qin Sheng drove, Zheng Zhi would immediately wave to stop him. But this time, not only did Old Zheng not scold Qin Sheng, but he also looked at Su Hao with an expression that agreed with Qin Sheng's point of view!
Sixteen years old. That's an age where you can really wake yourself up. And he's an athlete, damn it.
These people have all been through it all!
"Ahem, no, that's not it. Xiao Hao stayed up too late doing his homework after training yesterday! That's why he didn't sleep well!"

Just as Su Hao was about to give Lao Qin an over-the-shoulder throw, he was furious.

Liao Lisheng, who lives in the apartment with Su Hao and had come over last night to visit and help Su Hao look up a math problem on his phone, quickly said, "Hmm?"

"what?"

"what?"

"What the hell???"

Sure enough, no matter how old you are, the word "homework" is absolutely irresistible!

Liao Lisheng's words about doing homework drew all the Evergrande players who were training to gather around.

"What did I just hear? Homework? Who does homework? Haha!"

Qin Sheng, that old man, burst into laughter without any restraint.

His smile naturally caused many people on the training field to chuckle along!
"Brothers, Xiao Hao is still a student at Evergrande Football School. Although he's in the first team, his student status and other things are still managed by the football school. His homeroom teacher has talked to Aunt Su and arranged for Xiao Hao to study on his own at the club first, and then go to the football school for extra lessons on the rest days after the games every weekend!"

Liao Lisheng's original intention was good!
He did it to explain for Su Hao!
However, this guy just can't tell the situation from the start. These uneducated, rough-around-the-edges guys were already hilarious enough, but when they heard that Su Hao was being supervised by his mother and homeroom teacher and had to get extra lessons after the competition, they were even more surprised.
Those who were originally chuckling couldn't help but burst into laughter.

These guys all came from sports schools. In sports schools, who cares about studies or homework!

"Brother Sheng! You'd better not try to explain for me!"

Su Hao was on the verge of tears!
Qin Sheng, in particular, was laughing so hard he was crying!

Fortunately, Madanoni quickly helped Su Hao get his revenge.

The daily training match between teams A and B!

The first time, Su Hao dribbled the ball and easily got past Qin Sheng with a left-right cut. Then, when Qin Sheng chased back, Su Hao pulled him through the legs again and got past Qin Sheng once more. He even managed to send the ball into the corner of Team B while dribbling past Qin Sheng!
the second time!
Su Hao could have simply passed the ball directly, but he waited until Qin Sheng was close behind, then used a feint to shake off Qin Sheng before passing the ball.

The third time.
the fourth time.
The fifth time.
The training match lasted only half an hour.

Qin Sheng, who had been laughing the loudest earlier, was almost brought to tears by Su Hao.

"Haha, is Old Qin making fun of people again?!"

Seeing Qin Sheng standing with his hands on his hips, panting heavily.

The people who were laughing at Su Hao for having to do his homework have now skillfully turned their jokes on Lao Qin!

"Hmph! So what! I'm not doing my homework anyway, hahahahahaha!"

Although he really wanted to cry, Lao Qin still stubbornly said another "caw caw" to Su Hao!
"Ha ha!"

"Hahaha! You're just being stubborn!"

March!

The sun isn't that glaring over Evergrande yet!

March!
