Super Coach

The biggest profitable event in the hands of FIFA has always been the World Cup, but it is precisely because FIFA's profit depends too much on the World Cup, so FIFA has been trying to open source.

In the club competition, FIFA took over the Toyota Cup and renamed this event the World Club. It strives to make this event a major event comparable to the Champions League, but so many years have passed. Because of the uneven strength of the participating teams, the influence of the World Club has always been limited.

In the national team competition, in addition to a World Cup, FIFA also took over and transformed a Confederations Cup. All the participating teams in this event are from the Intercontinental Cup of each continent under the leadership of FIFA. Champion team.

In accordance with established practice, the teams participating in this Confederations Cup are the hosts, that is, the host country of the next World Cup Brazil, the European Cup champion Germany, the South American championship team Uruguay, the North American championship team Mexico, Asia ’s champion team Japan, Oceania ’s champion Tahiti, the last World Cup champion Spain, and the African Cup champion team that has not yet decided to belong.

Starting in 2005, in the year before the World Cup, the Confederations Cup was held in the host country of the World Cup. This of course does not exclude FIFA ’s own abacus, but this event also gave some teams to participate in the tournament and hone the team. The opportunity to study the preparation of the World Cup host country at the same time can be described as a multi-purpose.

While continuing the practices of FIFA over the years, they are also paying more and more attention to each lottery ceremony. This time the Brazilian Federation Cup is no exception. In addition to the invitations of the head coaches and football officials of participating countries, there are a group of superstars in Brazil.

This led Yang Chengyi to walk into the Annecy Convention Center in Sao Paulo where the lottery was held and immediately greeted a warm embrace.

"Boss!" I saw fat and chubby Ronaldo grinning his big mouth, revealing his iconic big rabbit teeth.

Yang Cheng was clasped with his hands, almost out of breath, and pushed him away with a hard hand. "I said, are you going to murder?"

"Boss!" He had just finished speaking, and someone behind him patted his shoulder. He almost didn't scare him.

Looking back, it was Denilson, who had also been very blissful.

Yang Cheng saw that these two were on the pitch in the past, and now I am afraid that even if they take a few more steps, they are fat. Suddenly felt a nightmare, deliberately reached out to wipe the sweat that did not exist on his forehead, and shook his head vigorously, "He ***, Brazil is terrible, I will go back to Europe!"

Ronaldo had the lowest laugh. He almost didn't fall down on the ground, and Denilson was no better.

"Boss, you are not easy to come to Brazil, this time. We have to treat you well!" Ronaldo was filled with ambiguous eyes, and kept squeezing his eyes.

Yang Cheng was also very touched. This Brazilian girl was famous for her enthusiasm, but he was scared, if Yang Cheng would be out of the country by the newspaper tomorrow. That's not easy to do, after all, this place in Brazil is messy enough, think about Ferguson's experience in Brazil ...

"You are not too old anymore, don't think about playing all day, take care of your family, Ronnie!" Yang Cheng put out a pair of elders. The whisper focused on Ronaldo.

"Relax, boss, Ronnie has recently divorced again. After he became single, he can now play with no worries!" Denilson said beside Yang Cheng with a smile.

"Are you divorced again?" Yang Cheng was taken aback.

Ronaldo smiled and groaned without any embarrassment and shame. It seemed to him that divorce was nothing.

"Don't say anything about me, boss, you came to Brazil to eat, live, play, fuck, and treat me all!" Ronaldo looked very generously patting his chest, but he invited many times Yang Cheng came to Brazil, but Yang Cheng has never been here. This time he came, he certainly cannot let go easily.

I said earlier that eating, living, and playing is okay. This old kid also talked about being a prostitute?

"Who are you when I am?" Yang Cheng's face covered in waterfall sweat, this Ronaldo is really enough!

Although Yang Cheng has left the professional league, but the contacts he has accumulated over the years and the former Brazilian stars he has coached are not few, and the people he knows are everywhere, so when he enters the venue, he is naturally the boss Busy for a while.

Finally, after getting rid of the entanglement, he was taken to the front row by the staff, and then saw FIFA President Beckenbauer waving at him, pointing to the seat next to him, which was obviously for him What remains is just in the middle of Beckenbauer and Bosque.

"Vicente, there is a feeling that sitting with you, I always suffer!" Yang Cheng sat down in a bitter smile.

Just in the chat, he got some news from UEFA President Olsen's mouth. Among the participating teams in this year's Confederations Cup, Brazil and Spain have been designated by FIFA as the seed teams of this tournament.

In the draw rules of the Confederations Cup, teams from the same continent are circumvented in the group draw, and the host is designated as the seed team, which everyone knows, and the other seed team is to Look at the national team rankings, competition championships and other considerations.

Spain and Germany are currently ranked first and second respectively in the national team rankings. In addition, Spain is the last World Cup champion. Although the German team is a new European champion, no matter from which level, The German team is still slightly worse, so Spain was drafted as the seed team.

That is to say, the German team will definitely die in the group match host Brazil!

Bosque, the old guy, got cheap and well-behaved. He had the posture of the Anxi coach in the slam dunk. He smiled and said nothing, but he seemed to have everyone's temperament, which made Yang Cheng straighten his heart. Dad is too bad.

The lottery ceremony began with Cafu, the former captain of the Brazilian national team. I showed you the official ball of the 2014 World Cup, and then Beckenbauer introduced the process of the Confederations Cup. This event will start on June 15, 2013 and end on June 30. This will be The most important national team competition before the Brazil World Cup.

Yang Cheng had already made a lot of preparations for the lottery. He couldn't get the seed team and met Brazil. Yang Cheng felt that his head was big, because he had a hunch that group A might be turned into a group of death. Because of the strength of Brazil and Germany, regardless of whether they join Mexico or Uruguay, competition will be fierce.

Facts have proved. Yang Cheng's idea penetrated FIFA's plan, and Group A did eventually become the group of death.

Brazil and Germany, Mexico, and Japan are in the same group; Spain, Uruguay, Tahiti and the African championship teams are grouped in Group B. In this way, the competition in Group A is very brutal no matter how you look at it, because Japan and Mexico They also have the strength to challenge the Brazilian and German teams, and Tahiti is a recognized team to brush data.

After the draw, Yang Cheng shook his head helplessly and stood up, preparing to get up for the dinner after the FIFA lottery. The Bosque side was also full of spring breeze and stood up. He comfortably patted Yang Cheng on the shoulder, as if telling him, little brother, you admit your fate!

But this is not FIFA hard to kill the German team, because the German team can not get the seed qualification. It is destined to touch Brazil, regardless of whether it is Uruguay, Mexico or Japan. Any team drawn will have a very brutal competition, which is inevitable.

Of course, it does not mean that the strength of the group where Spain is located is not the same. Uruguay and Africa champion teams, these two teams will certainly be able to challenge Spain, but this BUG team is too strong.

After all, this world still believes in the law of the jungle, whose fist is bigger and who has the advantage ... There is a saying in Brazilian football that there is a golden lake at the foot of the Andes!

The reason for this is to describe the talents of many Brazilian professional clubs at the foot of the Andes, such as Dagama, Flamengo, Fluminense and Sao Paulo. Among them, Sao Paulo is the most regularized. The club has the most complete training base in Brazil.

Speaking of São Paulo ’s training base, then Kaka.

It is rumored that after the São Paulo club sold Kaka to AC Milan, it used the funds to build this training base. This was a big splurge for Brazilian football at the time. At least there were not many clubs at the time. Able to invest such a large amount of money to prepare such a training ground.

However, even now, this is still the most modern and fully equipped training base in Brazil. Not only is there only a dedicated youth training camp, but also a large first-team training area, and there are also complete scientific research facilities, including All equipments in the field of sports and rehabilitation were directly imported from Yang Cheng's research center.

At the beginning, the German Football Association wanted to find a training base, focusing on two areas, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Because of the convenient transportation, it is very convenient from here to any host city of the World Cup. The climate is also suitable. It does not rain frequently. Used as a station for the World Cup camp.

As soon as Yang Cheng heard of Sao Paulo, he remembered the Sao Paulo club that was popular in Brazilian football. He immediately mentioned this cooperative club to the German Football Association. The German Football Association sent people to focus on it and gave it a high rating. Evaluation, that he is suitable to be used as a training camp for the national team.

This time, taking the opportunity to go to Brazil to participate in the Confederations Cup lottery, Yang Cheng specially took Bierhof, accompanied by Ronaldo and Denilson, to the training ground of the São Paulo club.

"Welcome to Sao Paulo, Mr. Yang Cheng!" The famous Yang Cheng led the team to Sao Paulo. The club president Juventio personally brought the club management to the door to greet him. At least for them, Yang Cheng was already a high person. The big man of the world, can't wait to get in touch with him.

"Hello, President Juventio!" Yang Cheng politely replied.

After, Ronaldo and Denilson and others from the Sao Paulo Club politely entered the training base.

Came in from the gate, stepped on the flat cement road, and the left and right sides were decorated with green gardens.

"On the right hand side is the club's administrative office!" Juventio introduced a three-story tile roof house on the right, which seems a bit old. But don't have a taste, the entire building of the São Paulo training base is this old-school architectural style, with very local characteristics.

A group of people came to the fork and saw Juventio pointing to the road on the right to introduce.

"The one on the right is the training ground and the competition ground for the youth team. The youth team's games and training are in this area. It is just across the river, and it is completely separated from the first team. In addition, the youth team usually has If you do n’t go this way, there is a door for you to enter and exit. If necessary, close the bridge on the riverside, and the two sides will be completely separated! "

"Here is the exclusive training area for the first team of the club on the left. There are a total of 3 standard competition venues as training grounds, and there are 5 small venues of different sizes. We also have a dedicated indoor football stadium. It ’s the dressing room and gym, with an indoor swimming pool, etc. "

Yang Cheng walked and listened to the introduction. He had never been to São Paulo, but the first impression of the club ’s training base was that even if it was put in Europe, it would definitely be the top training base. Or dare not say the most scientific, but the facilities are perfect, the environment is first-class, it is absolutely inescapable.

Yang Cheng is most satisfied with indoor football stadiums. He likes playing small football games. He also likes to allow players to train in such small venues, so when he heard of indoor football stadiums, he immediately took a look with interest.

Brazil ’s indoor football is full of vigor. Almost all famous stars have experienced indoor football. Even many well-known players such as Ronaldinho and Robinho started to practice from indoor football. They all came from indoor football games.

"It really doesn't look like a Brazilian club!" Bierhof also visited São Paulo's training base for the first time. He also praised the other party's modernization and equipment.

"They have also arranged a dormitory for lunch break. Our players will be able to take a rest here instead of going to and from the hotel, which is also ideal for us!"

Yang Cheng nodded after listening to it. The most rare thing is that each dormitory here is equipped with air conditioning and independent toilets, entertainment rooms and computers with Internet access. Table tennis, basketball, badminton and other sports are all there. It is similar to a perfect hotel.

You know, when Yang Cheng was in charge of Inter Milan, this club had not been equipped with air conditioning in the player ’s dormitory, and today ’s many European clubs have not yet done this, so São Paulo can have such a facility, really Not bad.

Another thing that makes Yang Cheng satisfied is that this training base is not in downtown Sao Paulo, but in the south of a small town called Kotia in the west of the urban area. If training is held here, to be honest, unless someone is there Guiding the way, otherwise, you are unfamiliar, and it is not easy to feel here.

Even if you touch it, there are many high walls around it. Unless you mix into the training base, don't expect to be able to spy on any confidential information, which also meets Yang Cheng's requirement for confidentiality.

"How do you feel?" Bierhof is very satisfied with this place, but Yang Cheng is the one who really makes the decision.

Yang Cheng thought about it, looked around, and nodded, "I have no problem!"

At that time, the German team can completely train in the side of São Paulo during the Confederations Cup. If there are any problems, then slowly improve, or wait until the World Cup to change the station, which is not difficult at all.

"Then I will start talking to them!" Bierhof nodded.

Yang Cheng also nodded, "I rarely come to Brazil, to go around to visit!" He is actually a travel lover. Since he came to Brazil, there is no reason not to go around, especially Jesus, not far from Rio de Janeiro Like, it must be well appreciated ... Brazil will become the most eye-catching area in the world of sports in the next few years, the 2013 Confederations Cup, the 2014 World Cup, the 2016 The Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games and the three international competitions are all held in Brazil, which undoubtedly provides favorable opportunities for Brazilian sports, especially Brazilian football.

São Paulo also attaches great importance to the cooperation with the German national team this time, hoping to take this opportunity to improve the influence of the club in international football, and even use the influence of the German team to open the players to the Bundesliga. Channel, so in the negotiations, São Paulo also gave full sincerity.

If the German team enters the Sao Paulo's Cotia training base, then the Sao Paulo side will provide the best convenience to the German team in terms of staff, waiters, accommodation, etc., then the German team only needs to bring their own ingredients and clothing You can enter directly, and the rest of São Paulo will provide it.

Of course, all of what they provide is not free. The German team will provide São Paulo with an amount of 300,000 euros as a fee within half a month of the Confederations Cup. The name is to help São Paulo renovate the training base. In fact, even if it is a remuneration, Yang Cheng also promised to give a discount when buying some instruments in São Paulo, which is a kind of reward.

However, Yang Cheng also mentioned that he hopes that Sao Paulo will provide protection to the team in terms of confidentiality and security. Juventio will pat his chest to ensure that he will definitely do his best to cooperate with the German team in these aspects, and he will also take This matter was conveyed to the municipal government of Kotia, and the municipal government will arrange police to **** the German team.

Yang Cheng is very satisfied with the arrangement of Juventio, because after having the Sao Paulo ’s Cotia training base, the German team can arrange the hotel in a safer and more perfect hotel in downtown Sao Paulo without having to live in the Brazilian countryside local.

This is another great convenience for the German team.

After Brazil got the lottery and the resident, Yang Cheng began to enter the vacation, staying in Ronaldo and others with enthusiasm, Yang Cheng stayed for a few more days until he left in mid-December. (To be continued)
