Fox in the Penalty Area

After playing the mid-week AFC Champions League, the flashing stars rotated the second round of the weekend league, and most of the main players sat on the bench.

This arrangement is not surprising to everyone. After all, after the start of the AFC Champions League group stage, there will be double matches for a week in a row. With the thickness of Shining Star's bench, if there is no rotation, it may not be used for half a season, and the gas will run out, ****... …No, the whole team collapsed.

So Shining Star used a rotation lineup to challenge Nanjia Ruishi away.

Then after a hard fight, they finally lost 1:2 to their opponents.

Li Rong scored his first goal to join Flash Star in this game, but still failed to prevent the team from losing.

After two consecutive victories in the Super Cup and the first round of the league, Flash Star suffered two consecutive losses in the AFC Champions League and the league. The mood of Flash Star fans is like riding a roller coaster. fall down...

Fortunately, the mentality of most Flash Star fans is still very good. They know the strength and positioning of their team, and they also know the actual difficulties they are currently facing.

After all, in a week of consecutive double matches, you will still encounter strong opponents, and it is normal to lose.

Besides, the season has just started. Even if they lose the game, Shining Star is currently ranked eighth in the league, and it is still early in the relegation zone, so there is no need to panic.

Therefore, the mood of Flash Star fans is still very stable.

Discordant voices mainly come from the media.

Of course, the team has lost, and the media has the right to comment on it, but the voice in the media is not criticism, but a pessimistic prediction.

The media believes that with the thickness of the flashing star's bench and the current state shown in the two-line battle, the AFC Champions League may be a sweet trap for the flashing star.

The prospect of Flash Star's relegation this season is not optimistic.

The evidence is naturally not only the performance of Flash Star in the last two games. In the visible schedule, people who know football can see at a glance the difficulties Flash Star will encounter in the future.

At the beginning of the season when the players' physical reserves were the best, Shining Star encountered the AFC Champions League in a week of double matches, which was a torture to the players' physical fitness and disrupted their game rhythm.

As a result, it is impossible to get more points in the league standings.

Finally, the six group matches of the AFC Champions League ended in mid-April, and the FA Cup began again.

The most serious impact comes from this summer's Olympic Games.

Shining Star is playing the young card. A number of outstanding young players made them invincible in the Chinese League One last season, but it also planted a hidden danger, that is, once the Olympic team wants to play a game, they will draw the main players in the Shining Star formation. players.

Although the Olympic football match only started on August 8, the Chinese Olympic team had to train for a month before then to participate in the Olympic Games in August.

This means that Flash Star will be taken away from July, Hu Lai, Chen Xingyi, and Wang Guangwei, the three main players of the Chinese Olympic team, and they are also the main players of Flash Star.

By the way, there is also Junpei Morikawa, the main midfielder of the Japanese Olympic team? He should also be transferred to the Japanese Olympic team for training and to participate in the Olympic Games.

In addition, Zhang Qinghuan, who is only one year older than the Olympic age, may also be recruited by the Olympic team as an overage player to play in the Olympics. After all, the tacit understanding between Zhang Qinghuan, Hu Lai, and Chen Xingyi can be seamlessly transplanted to the Olympic team? There will never be a problem that Qin Lin could not integrate into the team when he went to the Olympic team last time.

At that time, if Zhang Qinghuan is really called up to the Olympic team as an overage player, Zhao Kangming will probably vomit blood.

All of a sudden, the team lost five players, and half of the main lineup was gone...

How else to kick?

It is expected that they will basically miss at least seven league games, and when they return to the team, there will only be seven rounds left in the league.

If the Flashes play in the two months they're away? Can't sustain it? Crash. Then after Hu Lai and the others come back, they really can only fight for relegation-is this a better result? At least they can fight for relegation.

It may be too late for a worse outcome.

After all, the early stage of the league will be affected by the AFC Champions League.

No matter how you look at it now, Flash Star's first season in the Chinese Super League is hellish.

No wonder Zhao Kangming said after winning the Super Bowl that the team's goal is still to avoid relegation.

And they may have to fight for relegation when the league has just started.

March 13th, Wednesday? The Anton Provincial Sports Center ushered in the first AFC Champions League match since its completion.

In the group stage, the currently bottom-ranked Shining Stars face the third-ranked Sydney Coast.

But Flash Star fans have mixed feelings about this game.

On the one hand? This is a special moment in the history of Anton football? It is the glory of Anton football.

But on the other hand, is the AFC Champions League good or bad for the current Anton Shining Star? It is still unclear.

Everyone hopes that Flash Star can perform well in the AFC Champions League, but they are worried that doing their best in the AFC Champions League will affect the next league.

If there is no Olympic Games this year, they don't have to worry so much, because even if they are ranked low in the league due to the impact of the AFC Champions League in the early stage, they can slowly catch up later. At least relegation should not be a problem.

But with the Olympics, Hu Lai and the others have to miss at least seven rounds, and the influence on the team cannot be ignored.

After all, there are only 30 rounds in the Chinese Super League, and they will not be able to play a quarter of the games.

"Recently there is a saying on the Internet that we should give up the AFC Champions League. The reason is naturally because we sacrificed the league in order to play in the AFC Champions League. With our strength, we must not go far in the AFC Champions League. A game destined to be eliminated is so hard? Why not put this energy into the league? If we completely give up the AFC Champions League and only play in the league, the prospect of relegation will be bright..."

In the locker room, in the last five minutes before the start of the game, Zhao Kangming asked the players: "Are you willing to accept such a strategy? Give up the AFC Champions League and concentrate on playing in the league."

Everyone shook their heads: "I don't want to!"

They have actually heard more or less of what director Zhao said on the Internet, and they have discussed similar issues in private.

So Zhao Kangming's current question already has an answer among the players.

"In fact, the club and the coaching staff have no specific requirements for the team's performance in the AFC Champions League." Zhao Kangming continued after getting the players' answers: "But this does not mean giving up the AFC Champions League. I think For us, the AFC Champions League is a very rare opportunity, an opportunity for us to play against the best teams in Asia. Just like last season when we were a Chinese Premier League team, we played against the Chinese Super League in the FA Cup So I have a different opinion from those guys outside. I don’t think playing in the AFC is a bad thing for us, and I don’t think playing in the AFC will make us unable to relegation. On the contrary, as newly promoted, we can win We have learned a lot in the AFC Champions League, and these gains will in turn help us achieve better performances in the league. Can you understand me when I say this?"

The team members nodded.

In fact, they feel deeply about this point. After playing against Haihe Shuanggang and Lingnan Poseidon in the FA Cup last season, everyone felt that they had obvious hints in terms of ability and mentality.

This kind of improvement gave the Flash Star team a crushing advantage in the Chinese League One. They completely crushed their opponents in the sprint stage of the league, and maintained a stable performance, without giving competitors any chance to take advantage of it.

"But if we just play the AFC Champions League with the mentality of coping with the game, then I believe we will not learn even a little bit from these games. So even if we have no performance requirements in the AFC Champions League, I will I hope everyone will go all out in every game... "After the AFC Champions League in the middle of the week, what should I do in the league on the weekend?" This kind of question should be considered by the coaching staff, not by you players. You only You just need to give your best in every game. It’s the same in today’s game, go all out and focus on nothing else!”

After he finished speaking, Qin Lin stood up as the captain of the field who was about to start the game, turned around and said loudly to his teammates: "No matter what our final results in the AFC Champions League are, if we leave nothing , then we are here to make up the numbers! We just came to participate in the AFC for nothing! When your relatives and friends ask you, how does it feel to play in the AFC? What do you want to say?'I don’t know, I just played '? You can't even blow a bullshit... What a shame!"

Hearing what he said, the Flash Star players in the locker room burst into laughter.

Amidst the roar of laughter, Qin Lin raised his volume: "Get out now! Don't make your 'friend' who came from afar wait too long!"

Hu Lai jumped up and said loudly: "A friend comes from afar...even though he is far away, he will be killed!"
