Fox in the Penalty Area

With Hu Lai's lore, the 2024 Super League season came to an end.

The cup should be held, the relegation should be relegated, and the award should be awarded.

Every team, everyone has their place.

The new champion Anton Shining Star became the biggest winner.

They won the league championship and were selected as a fair play team and an excellent youth training club. At the same time, Jincheng where they are located has also become the most popular division in the Super League this season.

The head coach Zhao Kangming won the best coach.

Among them, Hu Lai, Chen Xingyi and Zhang Qinghuan were selected as the best eleven-man lineup of the season.

Wang Guangwei, Qin Lin, and Morikawa Junpei were selected as the best team's substitute lineup.

Hu Lai won the season's top scorer and best local scorer with 30 goals, breaking Shi Wuxian's record of 28 goals.

At the same time, Hu Lai also won the best player in the Super League in the 2024 season.

His 30 goals have brought the team the most important championship, and he deserves this honor.

The newly-promoted miracle created by Shining Star is eloquent and continues to be discussed nationwide.

This team just won the Chinese League One and the Chinese Football Association Cup just a season ago. This season, it went a step further and won the highest honor representing Chinese football-the Chinese Super League champion.

Zhao Kangming led the team to set off a youth storm in the Super League.

This youth storm is not just a matter of the Xingxing family.

In the last round of the league, two young players, Luo Kai and Zhou Zijing, also played well, and it can even be said that they indirectly determined the league champion.

In this season's Chinese Super League, many young players have begun to play important roles in their respective club teams. It is no longer necessary to rely on the u23 policy to get some playing opportunities from the club's charity.

Their wonderful performance also gave footballers more hope for the future of Chinese football.

Now Flash Star has used the "Youth Guards" to win the first Chinese Super League championship in club history, which should also stimulate other clubs, making them more willing to invest in youth training, more willing to give young players opportunities, let They prove themselves.

If this momentum can be sustained, it creates a positive positive cycle.

This is also the greatest significance of Flash Star's championship to Chinese football.

Of course, these are relatively distant things.

Now there is an imminent matter.

That is the top twelve match of the Chinese national team.

After the end of the Chinese Super League, including Hu Lai, all the players selected for the national team squad left their respective clubs, went to the national team to report on the training camp, and prepared for the next home game against Qatar.

This game is very important for the Chinese team, and it is also very important for Marcel Wilson.

It was rumored that if Wilson could not lead his team to defeat Qatar and take all three points at home, he would be dismissed.

Although the Football Association did not require Wilson to give Hu Lai a chance, the outside world was mentioning Hu Lai's name.

Hu Lai, who just broke Shi Wujian's record and won the league championship, top scorer, and best player, is in high spirits.

Everyone is saying, such an awesome local player, if you don't let Wilson play, who else do you want to let? Let Meli Banega come?

But Meli Banega is still defeated by our Hu Lai!

When did the selection standards for the Chinese national team become so high?

Someone sent this fire to the Football Association level, and there were many voices scolding the Football Association on the Internet.

The Football Association is also very wronged - when you signed the contract with Wilson before, you said that you are not allowed to interfere with the coaching of Yang Shuai, and don't treat Yang Shuai as a puppet. Okay, let's write this into the contract and not interfere with his selection and appointment. Didn't you fans and the media keep praising us for doing well?

how?

Now that Yangshuai doesn't choose and employ people according to your requirements, we can't control them because of the contract, but you are still scolding us?

This is really good and bad, let you say it.

Wronged to wronged,

These words cannot be said outside, otherwise it is estimated that there will be another storm of public opinion. At that time, the national team will not be able to enter the World Cup finals, and their position will not be affected. But if there is a storm of public opinion, maybe someone will lose their hat.

In addition to scolding the Football Association, there is another voice spreading rapidly on the Internet.

Saying that Wilson didn't let Hu Lai play is not the high-sounding reason he said, what is not enough, what is not enough time to modify tactics... are all excuses! There was only one reason why Wilson didn't let Hu Lai play, and that was that he was upset that Hu Lai refused his call before the Asian Cup, so he wanted to give Hu Lai a blow.

Although everyone knows that it was Zhao Kangming's decision to refuse the national team call-up, for which Zhao Kangming was scolded enough at the time.

But in today's Internet rumors, Wilson believes that this must be the player's personal wish, and Zhao Kangming was just pushed by Hu Lai to block the gun. In the final analysis, it was Hu Lai who rejected his call-up.

So the beam with Hu Lai ended like this.

Later, as Hu Lai's performance got better and better, the outside world called for Hu Lai to join the national team. Wilson had no choice but to follow public opinion and recruit Hu Lai into the national team.

It was just recruiting Hu Lai into the national team. As for how to deal with Hu Lai after entering the national team, no one else can control it.

In this way, Hu Lai was selected into the national team to participate in the top twelve matches, but he didn't play for a minute in the four games...

Of course, all of the above are rumors on the Internet.

Neither Hou Lai nor Wilson has responded to the rumor.

There is no other evidence to prove that Wilson is narrow-minded, and he put Hu Lai on the bench to get revenge on Hu Lai.

There is no credible source for this news, and none of the media reporters in the circle forwarded it.

But it is still widely circulated, which fully shows how dissatisfied Chinese fans are with Wilson now...

"Hey Holly..."

On the bench, the substitute winger Huang Yao, who was sitting next to Hu Lai, tilted his head to Hu Lai's side and whispered with his hands over his mouth.

He is the main winger in the South China Tigers, but he can only be a substitute in the national team.

The two had just fought to the death for a championship in the league, but now they are sitting together on the bench of the national team, like a pair of brothers in trouble.

"Is something wrong, Brother Huang?" Hu Lai covered his mouth and turned his head towards him.

"I just want to ask you something..." Huang Yao glanced at the head coach, "It is said on the Internet that you can't play because you rejected Wilson's call...It's true ?"

Hu Lai smiled wryly and shook his head: "Of course it's a lie, Brother Huang. It's the club that refused to be recruited, and I never said a word."

"Is that so..." Huang Yao didn't continue to ask, perhaps because he thought it was not good to talk about the head coach behind his back, for fear of being put on small shoes.

Hu Lai did not discuss this issue with Huang Yao, but continued to watch the game.

Fifty-five minutes have passed since the Chinese team played against Qatar at home in the final round of the first round of the Top 12.

The score on the field was 1:1.

The Chinese team took the lead in the opening ten minutes, which seemed to indicate a good start.

But Qatar equalized before the end of the first half.

It poured cold water on many Chinese fans.

Although there were high voices before the game, Hu Lai did not start this game. He was still sitting on the bench, not knowing when or if he would play.

At this moment, Wang Sheng, the head of the Chinese coaching staff of the national team, ran over and hooked Hu Lai: "Hu Lai! Come on, warm up!"

Huang Yao, who was next to him, suddenly understood that Wilson was finally going to let Hu Lai play.

※※※

"Ah! My son is about to play!"

When Hu Lai got up from the bench of the Chinese national team to warm up alone, the TV broadcast specifically cut from the ongoing game to give him a shot.

The director used such broadcast language to tell the TV audience: Hu Lai may be replaced!

So not only Xie Lan was in front of the TV, but also countless Chinese fans became excited.

They waited for Hu Lai to step in and take orders, and then played to help the Chinese team beat Qatar.

Just like what he did with the Olympic team and the club.

But to everyone's regret...

Although Hu Lai was replaced in the 60th minute, he completed his first appearance in the top twelve.

But Hu Lai, who got 30 minutes of playing time, did not stage a good show to turn the tide.

He worked hard in the game, but he couldn't score a goal until the end of the game...

In the end, the Chinese team was tied 1:1 by Qatar at their home court.

Hu Lai, who walked off the court, looked very disappointed, but he still shook hands with coach Wilson. There was no irreconcilable conflict between the two as rumored on the Internet.

The TV camera shifted from Hu Lai to Wilson, who was still shaking hands and patting the shoulders of every Chinese team player off the field, just like he did after the previous few games the same.

But there was still disappointment on his face.

"The Chinese team did not win Qatar at home. Half of the top 12 matches have passed, and the Chinese team is ranked first from the bottom of the group... Whether it is the fate of the Chinese team or Wilson, it has reached a critical moment..." He He Feng said in the commentary.

Yan Kang's tone was stern and anxious: "We must do something to change all this... Hu Lai came off the bench today, and 30 minutes of playing time is not too little. But Hu Lai in the national team is not in the Olympic team and the club. I feel so comfortable when I was playing. What is the reason? Is it a problem of personal status? Or a problem of team tactics? Or a problem of staffing? No matter what, the Chinese team must make a change next! The next game 12 The strong match will have to wait until March next year, we still have time! But time is running out!"

Seeing this scene in the private room, Shi Wuyin said to Li Zhifei beside him, "Old Li, do you want to call your sister-in-law? This time I will be on a business trip for a long time..."

Li Zhifei curled his lips: "She guessed it a long time ago, I packed all the luggage, and I brought it together this time."

Shi Wuyin looked at the stadium, and there were some unwilling Chinese fans in the stands who hadn't left the stadium yet. They shouted slogans in the stands to dismiss Wilson.

Shi Wuyin sighed.

"Why are you sighing?" Li Zhifei asked him.

"I'm thinking... Maybe... Maybe, next year we can also enjoy this kind of treatment." Shi Wuyin didn't look away.

"How about it? Scared?"

It wasn't until he heard Li Zhifei's words that Shi Wuyin looked back at his partner: "Back then, so many people booed me and asked me to end, but I wasn't afraid. What's there to be afraid of?"

"Then why are you sighing?"

"I just think it's a pity... If we don't complete the task, get out of class, but Chinese football will lose another window period, and then we have to wait another four years..."

"Thinking too much, Xiao Shi. We are here to fight the fire, transition coaches, and buy time for the Football Association's global coach selection. Maybe two games... No, maybe we haven't played a game, and we will dismiss the get out of class."

"Then I have to hand over this team to my successor."

"Of course." Li Zhifei nodded repeatedly and tugged at him: "So don't be sad here. The next top twelve match is only four months away. We still have a lot of work to do to change the status quo. do it."

※※※

Two hours after the match between the Chinese team and Qatar, the Chinese Football Association and the national team officially announced the resignation of Marcel Wilson and his coaching staff.

The official statement thanked Marcel Wilson and his coaching team for their contribution to Chinese football and wished them all the best for the future.

At the same time, it announced the start of the global coach selection work.

Prior to this, the interim head coach of the national team will be Shi Wuyin, the former head coach of the Olympic team who led the team to perform well in the Olympics. He will work until the Football Association finds a new coach.

For this news, there is an answer on the Internet that represents the aspirations of the vast majority of Chinese fans.

"Its daybreak."
