Chapter 18 First Show 1
Today's training is no longer just Zhang Yang and Yahioi, and the big black Louis has also joined in.
Yashioi passed the ball, and Zhang Yang stopped the ball and turned around. He looked ahead, and Louis was ready.
"Come on! Look at me shaking you!" Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and looked at it.
"Come on, don't forget, I'm little Turam!" Louis clapped his hands, stabilized his center of gravity, and shouted loudly.
"Little Thuram! Let's see how my little Ronaldo spends time with you. Zhang Yang took the ball forward and reached out his leg to intercept Louis. He hit the ball to the left and wanted to change to Louis. He was over, but the ball was left by Louis.
"No, come again."
"A hundred more times, you can't take advantage of my little Turam."
"You two, don't forget that I'm still there." Yahioi shouted loudly.
In the distance, Mark. Coach Levy looked at the three young people with a smile and nodded with satisfaction.
...
Yahioi has a second-hand scooter. After the extra training, Yahioi drove Zhang Yang back to the apartment. Louis and Zhang Yang live in the same apartment, but Louis said that he would not go back to the apartment in advance.
"Where is that guy going?" Zhang Yang looked at Louis, who ran away, and asked.
Yashioi shrugged his shoulders. He didn't know that in the youth team, Yashioi was a proud guy, and he rarely paid attention to what his teammates did or thought. It can be said that now he is practicing with Zhang Yang and Louis. Before that, Yahioi will definitely not have this kind of behavior. He would rather practice alone. He felt that his strength was greater than that of his teammates.
"Zhang, do you know? There is also a Chinese in our team. Yashioi suddenly said to Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang was stunned, "Is there another Chinese? Who is it? Why haven't I seen it?"
Yashioi shook his head, "Maybe he was injured and left the team for the time being. I don't know."
Zhang Yang did not continue to ask, and he also saw that it was simply impossible to expect to get some of other people's information from this guy's mouth. How did this proud guy live so big before?
Zhang Yang did not know that he had a compatriot teammate in the team, but at this moment, a reporter came from China to try to interview his teammate.
The wind in Marseille seems to stop all year round.
Zhong Dajun is a reporter for Sports Weekly. When he first arrived at St. Charles Railway Station, Marseille was also windy. At a high place, the port of Marseille can be faintly seen, and thousands of masts swaying in the wind, which is spectacular.
Unable to appreciate the scenery of the port, Zhong Dajun went straight to the Marseille Club. From the escalator in the lobby, it is the subway station in Marseille. From St. Charles to PRADO Station, where the Marseille Club is located, there are only four stops in total.
Zhong Dajun is here to interview Meng Yang. Obviously, Zhong Dajun's preparation is not enough. He doesn't know who he wants to interview seems to be not in the team now.
"The first young Chinese player to sign a contract with the G14 club", such a title has been flashing in Zhong Dajun's mind on the long journey from Bad Kissingen via Frankfurt to Paris, and then to Marseille. What attracts Zhong Dajun very much is how young Chinese players come into contact with European football in different ways, from the 08 star in the hot spring town of Germany to Mengyang, who is alone in the Mediterranean migrant city.
In January 2004, Meng Yang went to Marseille for trial training, and he officially won the youth team contract in July this year (on July 17, Meng Yang signed a two-year contract with the Marseille Club), that is to say, he has lived here for almost a year.
VELODROME STADIUM IS RIGHT NEXT TO PRADO STATION. UN PROVINCidentLY, THE MARSEIRE CLUB, WHICH IS LOCATED ACROSS THE ROAD, HAS BEEN OFF WORK, AND THE Serie A LEAGUE OF MARSEARE AND Lille, WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BE INE TONIGHT, HAS BEEN CANCELLED FOR A CAUSED. Therefore, the staff of the club also got off work early.
However, Zhong Dajun saw that there was a staff on duty in the club, so he went up to ask.
Showing his press card, Zhong Dajun began to ask the staff on duty about his interviewee.
"Excuse me, is there any youth team games recently?"
"Please wait a moment." The person on duty then told Zhong Dajun, "Your luck is not bad. There will be a youth team game tomorrow. Their opponent is Paris Saint-Germain."
"Thank you." Zhong Dajun was very happy. His luck was not bad. He asked again to be on the safe being, "Do you know that there is a Chinese player in the youth team?"
"Chinese players?" The person on duty scratched his head. "It seems that there is. I remember a Chinese player who seems to be on the big list of the game."
"It's great." Zhong Dajun almost jumped up happily. My luck is not ordinary. As soon as I come to Marseille, it is possible to see the competition of the person to be interviewed.
He immediately went to the ticket office not far away and bought a ticket for the youth team's game. In fact, as long as he is a member of the Marseille fan association, he can watch the youth team's game for free, and there is no need to spend money to buy tickets. This is also to encourage fans to cheer for the youth team players.
However, Zhong Dajun obviously does not have the identity of a Marseille fan, so he can only pay for tickets. The ticket price is not high, only 1 euro, which is only symbolic.
I don't know if the editor-in-chief will reimburse this euro. Zhong Dajun looked at the ticket in his hand and thought to himself.
The stingy bald head will definitely not be reimbursed. Thinking of this possibility, Zhong Dajun was very indignant.
※※※※※※※※※
The league between Marseille and Lille was cancelled that night. Zhang Yang was a little depressed. He was looking forward to this game. It was undoubtedly a wonderful enjoyment to be able to feel the atmosphere of Verrodom Stadium in person, although he could only be in the stands at this time.
However, although the match has been postponed, the ticket in Zhang Yang's hand will still be useful at that time.
After about a few hours of training in the copy, Zhang Yang came out of the copy breathlessly. He looked at the time and it was only 19:45 p.m.
Thinking that tomorrow will usher in his first game after joining the Marseille team, Zhang Yang was very excited, which made him unable to calm down.
He decided to go out for a walk. Since he came to Marseille, he really hasn't gone out. In addition to training all day, his life seems to be always boring.
In the past two months, Zhang Yang has been to many cities in France. At this moment, walking on the streets of Marseille, he couldn't help but take a good looked at the city. I went to see the city seriously for the first time.
Only when you enter Marseille will you feel that this is Marseille, not Paris, which is the most heroic and romantic city in France. One of the intuitive examples can refer to the well-known Earl of Gedtuberge, who is known to women and children in Marseille. Dumas told us earlier than Jin Yong that the definition of a hero is not as simple as eating a big bowl of meat and drinking.
Zhang Yang's favorite is Napoleon. So he asked the pedestrians on the road if there was a Napoleon memorial or something nearby, but the answer made him a little disappointed.
The Frenchman who was asked the way by Zhang Yang seemed to be very interested in Zhang Yang, or Zhang Yang was the first Chinese he met in a Marseille jersey. He chatted with Zhang Yang.
When he learned that Zhang Yang was a player of the Marseille youth team, the middle-aged man who was obviously a Marseille fan was extremely happy. He also tricked to take out a Marseille team's pictorial from his satron and asked Zhang Yang to sign.
Zhang Yang looked at this pictorial. This is the poster of the first team of Marseille, with Ribery, Nasri, and Niang... He seriously signed his name on it, Chinese name: Zhang Yang.
This Marseille fan doesn't seem to think there will be anything wrong with Zhang Yang's youth team player signing on it. Seeing that Zhang Yang signed his name, he looked very happy, "Haha, thank you. I hope that one day you will appear here. The fan is expressing his encouragement and support for this strange Marseille youth player in this way.
"It will definitely be." Zhang Yang smiled gratefully, and he showed his own smile. The latter gave him a thumbs up.
"Gerry. Farsas. Director of the Marseille Fan Association. The middle-aged man stretched out his hand.
"Zhang Yang." Zhang Yang said his name. As he expected, his name made the director of the fan association very distressed, Ji Rui. Farsas read it several times before he could finally make the sound of 'Zhang'.
※※※※※※※※※
From this, it is called Gerry. In the mouth of Fassas's hardcore Marseille fans, Zhang Yang knows more about the team he is playing for now.
It turned out that in Marseille, the Maasai people did not like Napoleon the most. They liked Tapi, the boss who won the Champions League for Marseille in the 1990s, and later went to prison.
In Marseille and its surrounding areas, the Marseille Club has become a religion and the main life of many people.
The 1993 Marseille Champions League was finally proved to be the result of the bribery policy, but the Marseilles still remember the trophy.
Now in the lobby of the Marseille club, the biggest photo is the player Abedi of that year. Bailey held the trophy and opened his mouth and roared.
"Unless someone points a revolver at our forehead, we will never replace that picture until the earth explodes." Ji Rui. Farsas said with a serious face.
Gerry. Fassass told Zhang Yang that the Maasai also like people close to Tapi, such as Hill, the owner of Atletico Madrid, who once spent millions of dollars to buy a retired aircraft carrier on the grounds that "because I don't have it yet".
Marseille is like this. Get used to remembering what they think is worth remembering. It's easy to understand their uniqueness. The map of almost all cities is up from the north, but otherwise Marseille is east above the city map. In other words, if a place even reverses the latitude and longitude, their thinking will not be the same as outsiders.
Zhang Yang suddenly felt that this city, this team, seemed to be really suitable for him!
In this fanatical soil, his hope began to take root and germinate.
"There will be our youth league tomorrow. Welcome to cheer for us." Zhang Yang sent an invitation to the middle-aged fan.
"I will definitely go. Haha, I wish you a goal." Ji Rui. Fassas had a good impression of the young player. He took out the poster again, pointed to the place where he signed it, and gave a thumbs up.
Zhang Yang smiled happily. In the poster that can be in the first team, this is also his current goal!
※※※※※※※※※
On Monday afternoon, Marseille, which was a little cold, seemed to suddenly become a little sultry, and the air seemed to stop flowing.
However, it seems that this should be more to show off the heat and tension in the heart.
There is a not-large stadium called Egur Park Stadium near Egur, where the Marseille youth team is located. In the simple lounge of this lonely stadium, Zhang Yang stood up and listened to the sound from the window. There seem to be a lot of fans coming today. Will there be so many fans in a youth league?
Can you play today? Can you score a goal? Can you win the cheers of the fans?
He was a little excited, and his body couldn't control and trembled slightly. He began to take a big sip of water. He had to calm down his excited brain.
How many years have you been in love with football? How many years have you been fighting for this ideal?
Although this is just a youth league, Zhang Yang insists that this is his own final! It's the first real game of my career!
Unexpected! There is still half an hour before the start of the game, and more than 2,000 fans have poured into the stadium. After yesterday's Ligue 1 match between Marseille and Lille was postponed for some reason, the energy could not be vented. The Marseille fans who were tired without seeing their own team's game every week turned their attention to the youth team's game.
When there were more than ten minutes left before the start of the game, the stands that could accommodate more than 6,000 people at the Egur Park Stadium had been occupied by fans.
According to the visual inspection of the staff, there are about 4,000 fans. This is an incredible number, and even the game has to be postponed. This is because the local police in Marseille only sent more than a dozen police officers symbolically to maintain security on the spot. After all, the possibility of conflict in the league of the youth team is It's very small, but now, so many fans have poured into this stadium built in the 1950s, which makes this disrepair stadium even a little overwhelmed.
The police officer who maintained the security at the scene had to immediately discuss with the referee and the fourth official of the game. The game was temporarily postponed. He needed time to apply for the police to maintain order at the scene.
The referee Kams and the fourth official also realized that the situation seemed to be a little serious. After obtaining the consent of the head coaches of the youth teams on both sides, they decided to postpone the game for 15 minutes and give the police time to mobilize security forces.
Pierre walked into the locker room and told the players that the game had been postponed for 15 minutes.
"Why is it postponed?"
"Oh, damn it, I just prayed for my lucky necklace, and it won't work after 15 minutes."
Someone complained.
"More than 4,000 fans came to the stadium today, and the security force at the scene was insufficient..." Pierre only used one sentence to silence all the complainers.
"Wow, this is a big scene."
"Yes, I have never scored in front of so many people."
"I must behave well today, haha."
Pierre smiled. The reason why he came to tell the players that the game was temporarily postponed for 15 minutes is for this reason. These young people will definitely be very excited. They will work harder to play in front of so many fans.
Of course, in the face of so many fans at once, there may be a little nervousness. However, if you can't even bear the atmosphere brought by 4,000 people, the psychological endurance of such a player is too bad. It's okay for such a player.
Zhang Yang didn't say anything. He sat there, and he was also very excited. However, what he knew most was that there was only one audience and 4,000 spectators in this game the same for him!
As long as he can play, he will fight like the bravest warrior!
"The field! It's time for Marseille fans to get to know you! Guys, don't be scared and weak by our own fans.
Coach Pierre clapped his hands and joked with his players. After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the door. It is Pierre's habit that he wants to be at the forefront.
Behind him are his disciples, and the young men he cultivated with painstaking efforts are his soldiers! Although these young people have different talents, and even some people don't work hard enough, and some people are not very obedient, he has devoted himself to any person, and any person's excellent performance and success will make him a sense of achievement.
Zhang Yang already knows that he will be a substitute in this game, which is understandable.
Now, he is looking forward to having a chance to play!
Now is the moment. My childhood dream has finally come true. I will take this step and become a professional player. Sprinkle your youth and dreams on the green field of love!
※※※※※※※※※
Marseille's first-team head coach Fernandez and first-team assistant coach Hiltney also appeared in the old stands of Egur Park.
They came to see Zhang Yang's performance.
The match between Marseille and Lille has been postponed, which is good news for Marseille, because one of their substitute shooters was injured in training. Now, there is only one real striker in Marseille's first team. If the game with Lille goes on normally, Fernandez doesn't even Don't face the dilemma of not having a real shooter on the bench in the case of sending a single striker!
Knowing that there was a youth league between the Marseille team and the Paris Saint-Germain youth team today, Fernandez came over. He remembered the impressive Chinese young man. He wanted to see how the boy was doing now.
However, thinking that less than a week has passed since Zhang Yang was signed that day, Fernandez was not optimistic that he could see Zhang Yang's outstanding performance.
"Which one is him?" Assistant coach Hiltney asked Fernandez. He has heard the head coach of his team tell the story of the Chinese boy. Hiltney also admires the young man's persistence and hard work in chasing his football dream, but he resolutely does not think that a Chinese can perform so well. In fact, he knew that the team had signed a Chinese player last year, but Hiltney knew that it was more because of the club's need to develop the Chinese market. Not for the sake of the player's personal ability.
Therefore, he is curious about the Chinese youth player named Zhang Yang, which Fernandez seems to be very concerned about, but he doesn't believe it more. He doesn't think there is anything special about Zhang Yang. He thinks Fernandez must have gone wrong this time.

PS: A new day, a new beginning, please collect, ask for red tickets, hehe.
