Chapter 992 National Team ([-])

On June 2012, 6, Beirut Sports City was full of special police officers who were on the verge of an enemy. All they had to be responsible for was today's game.

Lebanon's ability to qualify in the group stage really surprised many people, and even they themselves couldn't believe it. Even their stadium has only recently completed maintenance work. After all, before that, they thought it would be impossible for them Stand out in a group with teams like China and Qatar.

But football is round after all. The Lebanese players made it to the top ten with their love for football. This is a good thing for Lebanon as a whole, but it is still very disappointing for their government People have a headache.

Although the war has been over for a long time, in fact, various terrorist attacks are happening almost every day. This troubled country really has no time to rest, and almost every home match of this cup is It was suffering. They would never allow anyone to do anything at this time. That's why today they sent nearly [-] military and police officers to surround the Sports City. Anyone who looked at something wrong would be ruthlessly checked.

But they still underestimated the charm of football. For the people of this country, what could be more attractive than the World Cup qualifiers?So the stadium, which could only accommodate 5000 people, has already poured in nearly [-] fans today.

Most of them don't have tickets, but the stadium that was visited by a car bomb two years ago is still hard to stop those who want to go in. There are always people who have various ways to get into the stadium, which has also caused The scene was a mess and there was no effective management at all.

Before the top ten games, Lebanon once proposed to change the home court, but it was nothing in the end. The AFC still wants to make some money by relying on this. Even if Lebanon is not an effective place for advertising at all, it still has You can see countless fans during the broadcast, who would watch it if you change the venue?It is really not a good thing for the AFC if another 300 people come in.

In fact, this is not the first time these two teams have met. They played two games in the group stage, but at that time Lebanon’s home court was in Singapore, so Brut Sports City was really Uribe’s first visit. , and when he led a group of players into the stadium, he was immediately stunned. Even a person like him who has traveled far and wide and seen the world can't imagine what he saw.

In the past two years in China, Uli has been to all the home courts of the Chinese Super League. He always feels that there are a few stadiums that are not as good as the vegetable fields. I am afraid that they are already the worst stadiums. What I saw at the beginning was actually a top-notch lawn. Compared with those vegetable fields, this place is simply an earthen field.

This time the Chinese team met Iran, Lebanon, Uzbekistan and their old enemy South Korea in the group draw. I thought it should be no problem, but I didn't expect to encounter such a situation in the first game.

"Is this kind of field really suitable for playing football?" Uribe immediately found the game supervisor, "Are you kidding? This is an international A-level competition, and this kind of potholed field will become a hell for football players. If My players get injured on this kind of pitch, so who can take the responsibility?"

However, his doubts are meaningless at all. After all, this venue has passed the inspection of the AFC. Compared with the AFC in other continents in the world, the AFC is also a strange thing. They can always put things they don’t want to see. Completely shielded, they can't even see the grass, but they can directly issue a competition certificate, which is also a classic.

The CCTV reporters who reported on the scene also felt very helpless. This time they did not send a team, but only sent a filming team. As for the signal, they directly purchased the broadcast signal prepared by the AFC.

"Hello, everyone, I'm doing a live broadcast for everyone in Beirut Sports City." Anyway, the work still needs to be done, so the reporter still wants to stand in his own position and broadcast "Everyone can watch Today, a large number of fans flooded into the home court. We even saw the cheering team organized by the Chinese embassy in the stands. However, according to accurate news, the organization of today’s game is very poor. Lebanon as a whole is suffering, and I think they also hope that this game will end as soon as possible." CCTV reporters rarely entered the mode of complaining, probably because they really couldn't bear this weird place.

"The most ridiculous thing is the field. Everyone can see the green field, but don't be deceived by your eyes. Those are not grass fields at all, but they sprayed a lot of green paint on the field before the game. So now I can smell the pungent smell standing on the edge of the field, which is probably a rare thing in football."

"Didn't they give an explanation?" Xie Quan asked strangely in the broadcast hall of the capital.

"An explanation? They said the grass seeds had been planted a month ago, but due to the recent bad weather and the rare drought here, no grass has grown at all, and the automatic spraying equipment has long been damaged , so we can only wait another one or two months to see the real lawn."

"Haha, so that means we can't see it?"

"Yeah, we are unlucky to come here at this time. If we come here in November, we might be able to see the lawn."

Xie Quan was a little helpless when the advertisement was released, complaining to Zhang Dao and Li Ming beside him, "I really heard about spraying paint on the grass before, but I always thought it was just a joke. I didn't expect it to be done today." Seeing the truth, I don't understand why such a venue can still pass the inspection of the AFC? If this is okay, why are the three stadiums in Dalian, Wuhan and Shenzhen rejected by the AFC? This is unscientific what?"

Li Ming also shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "Who said it wasn't? We all thought that the World Cup qualifiers would be held in Dalian this time? After all, Ai Huan is a child of Dalian, so he can play a match in his hometown." It must be of great significance to him, but who knows that we did not pass the test, and such a venue can pass the test, which is really speechless." He is now the general manager of Dalian Albin, and he naturally thinks about how to make it better Promote your team.
