Football King Bale

Chapter 515: The Olympic Standard Bearer and Wuhang participate in the war

In fact, Bell is very entangled in whether to play in the Olympics.

Before the European Cup, Bell had a very strong desire to play in the Olympics because of the consideration of completing the national team task set out by the ball saint system, because he regarded this as the best way, or even the only way, to complete the task of leading the national team to win the championship .

However, the Manchester United club is very opposed to Bell's participation in the Olympics. Because the new season of the Premier League will start on August 18, and Manchester United, who won the Premier League and the FA Cup last season, will definitely play in the Community Shield on the afternoon of August 11.

According to the schedule, the Olympic men's football final will be held on the afternoon of August 11, at the same time as the Community Shield. That is to say, if Bell participates in the Olympic men's football competition, it is basically impossible to participate in the Community Shield Contest.

Of course, even if the performance of the British Olympic team is very bad and they are out of the group stage, Bell will also participate in the competition with the team until August 1st. And Manchester United's pre-season training will start in early July, and it is definitely impossible for Bell to participate in Manchester United's pre-season training, which will greatly affect Manchester United's season preparations.

However, because Bell's willingness to play in the Olympics was very strong, Manchester United finally gave in and agreed to Bell's registration for the Olympics.

However, at the end of the European Cup, after Bell accidentally led Wales to win the Delaunay Cup, it seemed a bit tasteless for Bell to play in the Olympics. After all, after the European Cup, he has already completed the ball saint system The Olympic champion is no longer necessary for the missions issued. And considering the preparations for the new season, participating in the Olympics seems a bit outweighed.

………………

At this time, Bell felt a little bit hard to get off.

Because the British media and even the London Olympic Organizing Committee started to hype the news of his participation in the Olympics early on. After all, as the number one football player in the world today, Bell is definitely the number one star in the British sports world. The significance of his participation in the London Olympics has already Beyond the average athlete.

Of course, this has a lot to do with Bell being a player under the Welsh Football Association. Bell's participation in the Olympic football game has more political significance.

Therefore, he is also one of the important candidates for the torchbearer of the London Olympic Organizing Committee to light the torch of the opening ceremony and even the flag bearer of the British delegation.

In a word, whether to play in the Olympics at this time is no longer his personal business.

Of course, Bell can also announce his withdrawal from the Olympics due to his injury in the European Cup final, but such an outside move is not a good choice. After all, he was not really injured.

If the news of his fraudulent injury is exposed by the media, it will have a great negative impact on his image.

In the end, Bell gritted his teeth and made the decision to play in the Olympics.

As for Bell's decision, Britain from top to bottom, as well as the head coach of the British Olympic team, Pierce, are undoubtedly happy to see it.

………………

When Bell officially signed up to participate in the Olympic men's football game, he was also officially identified as one of the three flag-bearer candidates for the British delegation at the London Olympics. The other two were Beckham and cyclist Chris Hoy.

Considering the achievements of his career and the efforts he made for London's bid to host the Olympic Games, Beckham deserves the honor of being the flag bearer of the British delegation, but it is a pity that he was not included in the 18-man roster of the British Olympic football team. It is obviously inappropriate for an athlete who does not participate in the Olympics to serve as the flag bearer, and it is also disrespectful to other athletes, so Beckham has basically been eliminated early.

Sir Chris Hoy is an outstanding representative of British cycling. As early as 2000, he had already won the silver medal in the Sydney Olympic team event. Four years later, in the Athens Olympic Games, he won his first personal victory in the 1000-meter time trial. Olympic gold medal, at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Sir Chris Hoy reached the pinnacle of his career. With his outstanding performance in the individual pursuit, team pursuit and men's Keirin, he won three gold medals in one fell swoop. In this year's London Olympics, he was also selected as an Olympic ambassador early on.

In this year's London Olympic Games, the 36-year-old Sir Chris Hoy is still "old and stable". He has already confirmed that he will participate in the team sprint and Keirin competitions, and he will strive for his fifth Olympic gold medal and try to break Stie. The British record of five Olympic gold medals is held by Sir David Redgraf.

As the number one star of the Premier League giants Manchester United, Bell is also the number one player in the world today, and led the weak Welsh to win the European Cup just concluded. star. As the standard-bearer of the British delegation, his popularity and achievements are sufficient.

However, Bell also has a very obvious weakness. He is too young. Although he has achieved world-renowned achievements, some fans even shouted that he is the third football king in the world, but his age is there. He had just turned 23 when it opened.

Also, Bale is Welsh, not English. Although they are all members of the United Kingdom, in a country dominated by the English, many English people may not feel comfortable letting a Welshman serve as the standard bearer of the delegation.

………………

With the opening of the London Olympic Games coming soon, the topics of the flag bearers of the delegations are also increasing day by day. Semenya, a gender-controversial track and field athlete of the South African delegation, was awarded the post of flag bearer, and the limelight immediately overshadowed the beautiful Russian girl Sharapova.

Carefully observing the previous Olympic flag bearers, it is not difficult to find that the "tall, rich and handsome" who are popular all over the world sometimes have to give way to teammates who are physically disabled, battle-hardened, or small and exquisite.

As early as during the French Open, Sharapova updated her Twitter "thief Xixi": "Keeping secrets is not my forte. I would like to report a good news to everyone. I will serve as the Russian Olympic flag bearer."

As if inspired by the Russian delegation, 7 tennis stars including Djokovic and Radwanska joined the ranks of the flag bearers, which immediately made the opening ceremony of the London Olympic Games full of sunshine and beauty.

However, Semenya's sudden appearance is like a dark horse breaking into the rich and handsome camp. After all, she has been dealing with all kinds of controversies without even deciding on her gender.

In this regard, South African Olympic Committee Chairman Reddy explained the reason for choosing Semen Adam as the flag bearer: "We just think Custer is the most ideal candidate. She is a world champion and we expect her to win the gold medal."

Looking at South Africa's habit of choosing flag bearers, you will find that the word "inspirational" often plays an important role. According to Reddy, they also considered using the 400-meter sprinter Pistorius, the double amputee known as the "Blade Warrior" who was selected as the South African Olympic team at the last minute, as the flag bearer. Four years ago, the flag bearer of the South African delegation was a disabled athlete: swimmer Dutoit who lost his left leg.

What a rare exposure opportunity the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is, those "naturally beautiful and hard to give up" people can't help but imagine before it. But the truth often wants to tell them: you think too much.

South Korea, known for its love of beauty, decided not to judge heroes by their faces at the opening ceremony of the Olympics. The South Korean delegation announced that Yoon Kyung-shin, a 39-year-old handball player, will serve as the flag bearer for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

As early as in the Guangzhou Asian Games, Lao Yin defeated the super "kawaii" idol player Li Yongdae and became the standard bearer of the South Korean delegation. His eternal weapon is time. Yoon Kyung-shin is the oldest player in the Korean team at the London Olympics and has participated in the most Olympic games. He represented South Korea in the Barcelona Olympics in 1992, the Sydney Olympics in 2000, the Athens Olympics in 2004, and the Beijing Olympics in 2008. This London Olympics is Yoon's fifth Olympic Games.

Don't think that respecting the old and loving the young is an oriental characteristic. Italy and Australia are both representatives of the "seniority school". In 2008, Italian flag bearer Rossi was 40 years old and had won three Olympic gold medals. Australia selects the flag bearer each time based on the number of times it has participated in the Olympic Games. In 1996, Hoy participated in 4 times, in 2000, Gates participated in 5 times, and in 2004, Bichel participated in 6 times...

Although the Olympics is ultimately a sports event, for the United States, this is also a good opportunity to show off its democracy. Theirs, unlike the habits of other delegations, is democratic elections. They are selected by each sports team first, and then let each team send a representative to vote, which is more troublesome than electing the president of the United States. In the eyes of ordinary people, is it so troublesome to carry such a small matter as a flag bearer? But Americans may think that stealing needles when they are young and stealing cattle when they are old, the habit has to be developed bit by bit.

Of course, the results of democratic elections are sometimes shocking. At the Beijing Olympic Games, the flag bearer of the Venezuelan delegation was not one person, but a team—the women's softball team. It was determined by a nationwide public vote in Venezuela that combined the opinions of athletes, sports officials and the media.

As the old owner of the United States, the choice of the flag bearer of the British Olympic delegation is also democratically elected, and it is voted by all participating athletes. Whether it is Bell, Hoy, or Beckham, who is basically out, there is still no conclusion.

However, Bell is not too concerned about whether he can serve as the flag bearer of the British delegation at the London Olympics, or the torchbearer of the opening ceremony.

At this moment, what he really cares about is: the ball saint system has entered a dormant period!

To be precise, it was on the night of July 1, shortly after Wales finally won the Delaunay Cup, that Bell received a reminder from the ball sage system that because he had completed the task ahead of schedule, the ball sage system would be upgraded, so it entered a dormant period . As for the reopening time, it is still uncertain.

In other words, during the Olympic Games, Bell will participate in the battle without any cheats!
