Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 47: The Chinese National Football Team's Crushing Defeat + Su Hao Secretly Has an Agent Now? (Please Read On)

"Xiao Hao, how's your injury?"

Upon meeting, Gao Qi immediately inquired about Su Hao's foot injury.

Gao Qi had originally planned to meet his German friend today to watch Su Hao's debut for the national team.

After Evergrande issued an announcement that Su Hao would be absent due to injury, his German friend had no choice but to return home early.

"Uncle Gao, everything's fine now. I reckon he'll be able to play next week!"

"Oh! That's good! That's good!"

Gao Qi was initially a little worried, but now that she heard Su Hao would be able to play next week, she immediately felt relieved.

Since their last contact through Zheng Zhi, although it was only a verbal agreement, Gao Qi was very clear that as long as he still regarded Su Hao's overseas training as his primary goal, he would definitely be Su Hao's first choice as a domestic agent.

So, during this time, he selflessly promoted Su Hao everywhere, and after learning about all that he had done, Su Hao took the initiative to contact him.

Moreover, Su Hao even called his own guardian over today, and the reason for that is self-evident!

"Uncle Gao, let's get straight to the point. I really need to find an agent right now, and as I said before, you're my first choice!"

Su Hao is not a coy person, and Gao Qi has indeed been promoting his overseas studies without expecting anything in return.

Therefore, Su Hao bluntly stated his thoughts. In Su Hao's view, someone as shrewd as Gao Qi would be so decisive, even if he himself was so straightforward.
Sure enough, after Su Hao said that, Gao Qi took out several documents that she had prepared in advance from her bag.

"Xiao Hao, your Uncle Gao has been quite busy these days. When I was working on getting Hao Junmin to Schalke 04, I got to know a lot of German scouts. I watched your last match with a Bayern scout, and that guy was very interested in you!"

"Of course, I didn't put all my eggs in one basket. I sent your match videos to Schalke 04, Hamburg, Borussia Dortmund, and even some clubs in the Premier League and the Scottish Premiership!"

"So far, Schalke 04 has been the most positive respondent, and Borussia Dortmund has also said they will send scouts to conduct a detailed investigation."

"These are some preliminary plans I've made for you!"

"I thought you were still a minor, so I think we should be more cautious about commercial endorsements!"

"."

Inside the hotel's private room, Su Hao and Gao Qi talked at length about their future.

And Hefei, so far away!

A friendly match that plunged Chinese football into turmoil officially began at this moment.

As it was an official match for the national team, nearly 40,000 fans flocked to the Hefei Olympic Sports Center that day.

Amid the frenzied cheers of over 40,000 fans, the Chinese team displayed an aggressive attitude from the outset, determined to utterly crush their young opponents.

The 4-3-3 pure attacking formation also expressed Camacho's contempt for his opponents.

For the first ten minutes or so, the game seemed normal, with the Chinese team pinning the Thai team in their own half and playing a half-court offensive and defensive drill.

However.
16th minute of the match!

Thailand launched a sudden counter-attack, and Anan scored with a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, almost unmarked!
1:0?

The more than 40,000 fans at the scene were stunned.

Not only the fans at the stadium, but also countless Chinese football fans watching on TV with beers in hand, thinking about having a fun weekend, were stunned!

They really didn't expect that the Chinese national football team could concede a goal to this U23 Thai third team.

Of course, at this moment, the fans still thought that the national team had just been careless and would soon be able to turn the score around.

But just 5 minutes later.

Thailand's Kraisorn headed in a cross from the wing, leaving the Chinese defense completely unmarked. Everyone seemed to be sleepwalking, with no defensive positioning whatsoever, and they could only watch helplessly as Kraisorn changed the score to 2-0!

In the 44th minute of the match!

Thailand's Kraisorn scored twice, dribbling past goalkeeper Geng Xiaofeng on a one-on-one break before slotting the ball into the empty net.

Before halftime, the Chinese team had conceded three goals in quick succession! "Camacho, resign!"

"Camacho resign!!!"

"Camacho resign!!!"

Such a shocking score naturally enraged the more than 40,000 fans at the stadium.

With nowhere else to vent their frustration, the fans could only chant for the dismissal of the Spaniard who was earning an outrageously high salary.

of course!

The fans were shocked, and even Camacho, who was standing on the sidelines unaware of what was happening, stared wide-eyed!
what's the situation?
What exactly is going on?
Back in the locker room, Camacho naturally flew into a rage and berated the 11 players he had fielded in the starting lineup.

However, the national team players didn't react at all to Camacho's furious outburst.

The second half has begun!
Camacho thought that perhaps he still had a chance to turn the tide.

Zheng Zhi, Zeng Cheng, and Gao Lin, three key players for Guangzhou Evergrande, all made their appearances.

However.
There are no miracles!
51th minute of the match!

Thailand's Chanathip (19 years old at the time) scored with a shot from the edge of the penalty area.

In front of more than 40,000 Chinese football fans in Hefei who were on the verge of collapse, Songkrasin arrogantly performed a sliding knee celebration!
4: 0!

62th minute of the match!

Thailand's Mongkol scored another goal with a header, completely collapsing China's defense!
5: 0!

It wasn't until the 73rd minute of the match that the Chinese team managed to score a consolation goal through a penalty earned by Gao Lin.

This one goal sealed the final score of the match at 1-5!

For the first time in history, the Chinese men's national football team lost to Thailand, and it was an incredibly humiliating 1-5 defeat that was hard to believe!

"Camacho! Get out!!!"

"China team! Disband!"

"Camacho! Get out!!!"

"China team! Disband!"

As soon as the match ended, with fans already attempting to storm security, the organizers quickly escorted both teams' players into the players' tunnel.

Even so, quite a few fans still climbed over the stands and rushed onto the field.

Chaos!

Complete chaos!
Outside the Hefei Olympic Stadium, more than 40,000 fans gathered at the entrance, waiting for the national team to give an explanation.

Traffic jam!

Smash the bus!
Special forces deployed!

Camacho, looking completely bewildered, hid in the locker room and didn't even dare to attend the press conference.

Of course, amidst all the chaos, the Football Association acted extremely quickly to appease the fans.

It happened less than an hour after the game ended.

After unsuccessful attempts to communicate!

The Chinese Football Association was the first to announce on its official website the unilateral termination of its contract with Camacho.

Although they were going to give Camacho a hefty 50 million RMB release clause, the Chinese Football Association didn't care about that amount of money.

As long as we can get rid of this useless guy who dares to talk nonsense.
A crushing defeat!
All major media outlets across China began reporting on this absolutely humiliating 1-5 defeat.

This also made Gao Qi's announcement on Weibo that he had officially signed an agent contract with Guangzhou Evergrande player Su Hao seem to have vanished without a trace!
P.S.: My book has dropped off the new book charts, waaaaah, I'm panicking!
