Like many people of the same age, Lin Xuan has a vague impression of the 1994 and 1998 World Cups.

When the men’s football team entered the World Cup for the first time in 2002, the football enthusiasm of the people across the country was unprecedentedly high.

In this Korea-Japan World Cup, the three matches of the national team were watched by the school organization, which shows its influence.

It was at this time that Lin Xuan really fell in love with football.

At that time, he dreamed that one day he could wear the red jersey of the national team, score goals in the World Cup, and kiss the national flag on his chest in the face of tens of thousands of cheers.

It’s a pity that with the disappearance of the golden generation, the national football team has gradually fallen into the abyss and become a spittoon that everyone despises.

Anyone who likes football has gone to watch the five major European leagues. When it comes to the men’s football team, they either scold or sneer.

It’s no wonder that everyone was full of enthusiasm and support, but was disappointed again and again, and their hearts became colder and colder.

Coupled with the various shady scenes in football, it is even more shocking.

If anyone’s child learns to play football, he will definitely attract criticism, and everyone will avoid it.

Even so, Lin Xuan also wanted to fight for the country and try his best on the field.

Now, this opportunity is right in front of him!

Compared with the complete darkness of the previous few years, since 2009, a storm has been brewing, and many tigers have been defeated at 20. The football environment has improved a little.

And Lin Xuan knew the achievements made by Director Gao.

If the 2011 Asian Cup can achieve better results, Gao Hongbo may be able to continue to serve until the 2014 World Cup.

In the previous time and space, Lin Xuan imagined this kind of “if…” countless times.

Now, he finally has the opportunity to turn this “if” into reality.

Lin Xuan was very interested. After changing the reality, will the future domestic football still stumble like that, with no hope in sight?

He didn’t think for a long time, just paused, and then said firmly: “I have no objection, Director Gao. As long as the country calls, I will definitely go back as much as possible.”

Gao Hongbo was also very happy to see him so forthright. He had observed Lin Xuan for a long time.

The national team now lacks a creative playmaker who can hold the ball in tough battles.

If Lin Xuan can join the formation, it will be a great enhancement.

What about Wang Yongbai, Zhou Haibin, and Deng Zhuoxiang? Compared with Lin Xuan, their strength is obviously far behind.

Only Hao Junmin is a little bit stronger, and the gap with Lin Xuan is not that big, but Hao Junmin mainly plays on the side.

After investigating around, now I have to recruit Lin Xuan into the team. If you want to achieve your goal, you can’t do without Lin Xuan.

Gao Hongbo sounded relieved:

“This training camp lasts for 4 days, mainly to let you get acquainted with the team, and then there will be a warm-up match against Senegal.”

“If the team works well, there will be another training camp at the end of September, and then the World Cup qualifiers will be played.”

“Time is tight, I hope you can understand.”

“No problem, Director Gao.” Lin Xuan didn’t have any objections. Anyway, it was the international match day, and the club would release people.

“Then I’ll put you on the list. The Football Association will contact Manchester United. Come here before September 6.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xuan didn’t feel anything special. He just booked a round-trip ticket first.

Currently there are no direct flights. We can only fly from Manchester to the capital first, and then transfer to Bingcheng.

Sure enough, at the Carrington training base the next day, Ferguson had already received a fax from the Chinese Football Association.I specially talked with Lin Xuan.

“Lin, do you want to go back yourself? I’m worried that being so far away will affect your state.”

Ferguson’s worry is not unreasonable. Judging from the previous rounds of the Premier League, Lin Xuan seems to have become Manchester United’s new thigh, even more reliable than Ronaldo’s thigh.

Just two days after he came back, the team was going to play Tottenham away.

What if Lin Xuan’s state is affected and he encounters problems in the league?

“Don’t worry, Sir, my state will not be affected.”

“Emmmm…”

Ferguson thought about it for a second, and it happened to be a test to see how Manchester United performed when Lin Xuan was absent.

He simply thought about it: “Then you have to be careful when you go back, and don’t get hurt.”

“Of course.” Lin Xuan smiled confidently.

When encountering danger, he will instantly turn on the V-zone mode to avoid the threat.

Sometimes it seems that Lin Xuan was shoveled very fiercely by the opponent, as if he had broken his leg. In fact, he dodged in advance. It was just a minor injury, and the pain passed as soon as it hurt.

So since he became a professional player, he hasn’t had any injury problems so far.



“The roster of the fourth-term high school training camp is announced, and Lin Xuan, a young player who studied abroad, will make a strong comeback! ”

“Xinlang Sports News: Just now, the Football Association announced the list of Gao Hongbo’s fourth training session after taking office, and Lin Xuan’s name is impressively listed.”

“Through the first three training sessions, Gao Hongbo has been troubled by the two positions of midfielder and center forward. Now it seems that he is determined to eliminate the controversy and call Lin Xuan into the team.”

“Lin Xuan is currently one of the few players studying abroad. Before he turned 18, he had become the core lineup of various teams and helped the Arsenal youth team and Hoffenheim win the championship.”

“Currently at Manchester United, Lin Xuan is highly valued by head coach Ferguson. It can be seen that his personal ability is beyond doubt.”

“The only doubt is that Lin Xuan has never joined any domestic echelon before, and he is not familiar with domestic players.”

“Besides, he is too young, can he stand the test of the national team?”

“Before the away game against Lebanon on November 14th, there are only two games left for the Chinese men’s football team against Senegal and Botswana”

“Among them, only the match against Senegal on September 9 is FIFA’s international match day.”

“This also means that the match against Senegal is the only chance for Lin Xuan to participate in joint training before the Asian Cup.”

“I don’t know whether Gao Hongbo’s ‘temporary hugging’ will have any effect this time, but we will wait and see…”



Ice City, early autumn.

At this time, it was still early before the days of ice and snow, and the afterglow of summer was faintly lingering here.

The temperature is slightly cooler and the comfort level is the best.

After Lin Xuan got off the plane, the national team sent a car to meet him, which shows how much Gao Hongbo attaches importance to Lin Xuan.

In the hotel where the national team stayed, Lin Xuan finally met the head coach Gao Hongbo.

In another time and space, Lin Xuan often saw Gao Hongbo’s footage in front of the TV.

When I saw the deity this time, his complexion was not as it was on TV. Lin Xuan could already feel the pressure he was facing.

“High guidance.”

“I was looking forward to your coming.”

The two shook hands warmly.

Gao Hongbo was a little surprised. Lin Xuan acted very mature on the phone, but in reality he seemed to be a bit inconsistent with his high-spirited external image.

His words and deeds have always been very calm, maybe this is the so-called old man.

“Traveling so far, let’s go to rest first, training will start early tomorrow morning… By the way, I assigned you to Hao Junmin’s room, is that okay?”

“It’s okay, I have no opinion.” 590

“Okay, you go to bed early.”

After a short chat with Gao Hongbo, Lin Xuan came to his room and swiped his card to enter.

A slightly thin young man inside was brushing his teeth, and was startled when he saw Lin Xuan coming in.

“You are…Lin Xuan?”

“Yes, hello Brother Hao, long time ago.” Lin Xuan smiled politely.

“This…you don’t have to be polite, I should have admired you for a long time. You have already won the Bundesliga championship.”

Hao Junmin teased and said.

Although he is not that outgoing personality, he is also quite easy-going. The two had a brief chat, and the first impression they had of each other was pretty good.

In this way, Lin Xuan met his first teammate in the national team.



The Stadium of Ice City Convention and Exhibition Center is about to usher in a FIFA A-level match.

The national football team played against Senegal!

This stadium has never hosted any FIFA A-level matches before.

In order to meet the training camp and warm-up match, the organizers remodeled the stadium extensively.

It’s mainly the turf. After some adjustments, it finally looks like a regular court instead of a vegetable field.

After three days of intensive training, Gao Hongbo was very satisfied with Lin Xuan’s performance in the training.

He has been worried that Lin Xuan has been away for a long time, and it is difficult to form a tacit understanding between passing and running.

Teammates may not be able to comprehend some advanced thinking.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xuanchu just arrived, and he could fit into the team perfectly!

Probably because he achieved “downward compatibility” by adjusting himself.

No matter what, through this warm-up match against Senegal, you should be able to get the answer!

Therefore, Lin Xuan undoubtedly appeared in the starting lineup of the warm-up match!

The fans, media, coaching staff, and almost everyone’s eyes were focused on Lin Xuan! .
