Chapter 6 Rejecting the Summoning

six balls,

three games,

Dong Fangzhuo handed in a perfect answer sheet.

I can't help but Ferguson doesn't look at him differently.

Although Ferguson will not call him, but the news of the national team finally came.

The Antwerp club notified Dong Fangzhuo as soon as they received the fax from the Chinese team.

Six goals in three games has already impressed Ali Han, then coach of the national team.

Although it was just a warm-up match, it meant a lot to Dong Fangzhuo.

This is his first call-up to the national team.

China vs Myanmar.

This is a warm-up match for the Chinese team before the Asian qualifiers for the 2006 World Cup in Germany.

Dong Fangzhuo was recruited during this time period, which shows that Ali Han recognized him.

After all, during a heavyweight event like the qualifiers, except for player injuries, the head coach rarely recruits new players. He only trusts players he is familiar with.

Otherwise, the meaning of the warm-up match is only to test the status of the players, not the ability of the new players.

In short, this is Dong Fangzhuo's chance to compete in the national team's A-level competition.

But,

The meaning of the Antwerp club is not to let Dong Fangzhuo report to the national team, but to let Dong Fangzhuo stay in the club.

Head coach Mark put it bluntly:

"Your national team's friendly match time conflicts with the club's time. The club was happy to let it go, but you are very clear about the current situation the club is facing."

When Dong Fangzhuo saw the fax just now, he didn't show too much excitement.

Because he saw the date of the game.

March 17th.

And two days later, it was the game in Antwerp.

This is simply not possible.

If you go to the national team's warm-up match, you won't even be able to overcome the jet lag when you come back.

He is now the main striker of the club. At this time, he abandoned the struggling club on the road to relegation for a warm-up match of the national team.

can't do it.

Dong Fangzhuo didn't struggle much this time.

In fact, there is no choice.

He still remembers that one year, he was forced to represent the Liaoning team in the National Games. Fortunately, he was disqualified because he did not have a bone age certificate.

Otherwise, he would have to bite the bullet and go back to play in the National Games.

Of course, this time he voluntarily gave up.

I couldn't relegation for Antwerp in my previous life, and I can't miss it again in this life. I should do more.

Live again, many choices will not become so difficult.

because it has been

Think it through.

I had no feelings for this club in my previous life, and only wanted to return to the Premier League.

Coming back in this life is like meeting your former lover again.

not too deep,

But definitely not light.

Love her,

is an obligation,

It is also a responsibility.

He knows how bad it is to miss out on the chance to be called up to the national team.

but,

There are more important things than being selected for the national team.

He is no longer a teenager, and he has a sense of propriety.

It cannot be said that he rejected the call of the national team, but it should be that he was temporarily unable to report to the national team.

but,

In my previous life, because I was stupid, unable to speak, or not speaking, I offended many people and caused many people to misunderstand me unnecessarily.

This kind of shit can never happen again in this life.

The national team is definitely going, but Alihan can't let Ali Han feel disgusted with him from the beginning.

so,

He did not immediately fax the Chinese Football Association to express his attitude.

Instead, through the relationship of the big brother Hao Haidong,

I got Alihan's cell phone number.

The circle of friends is very important. Hao Haidong is the main striker of the national team, and he was pointed out by Hao Haidong. It is definitely right to find Hao Haidong.

Relationships are a thing that works wherever you go.

"Boss, I'm Dong Fangzhuo."

"Thank you very much for recruiting me into the latest Chinese national team training list..."

Dong Fangzhuo first sent Alihan a bunch of thanks and praises, and then expressed the difficulties he faced.

Alihan was naturally very comfortable listening, and expressed his understanding.

Things were resolved so simply.

If it was before?

Dong Fangzhuo would say: "The league here is very intense. I flew back for a few days for the national team's training camp for more than ten hours, and then rushed back. In the end, it was just to meet and get to know everyone. The impact is too great."

He really said this back then. In the second half of the year, when the national team was short of strikers, Alihan originally wanted to recruit him, but after he said these words, Alihan ignored him a little bit.

Now, of course, he cannot repeat the same mistakes.

Send the necessary sugar-coated bullets and sweet words, only good things, no bad things.

Arihan was actually not disappointed.

after all,

The current strikers of the national team are basically fixed. Dong Fangzhuo coming to the national team must be a substitute at most.

In addition to competitive reasons, there are other artificial reasons for calling him.

But now, Dong Fangzhuo failed to join the team in time, which saved him some trouble.

Dong Fangzhuo was also very satisfied with the way he handled this matter, and it did not cause any misunderstanding with Ali Han.

In fact, the two had worked together briefly in Chinese clubs in 2012. It can be said that Dong Fangzhuo knew a little bit about Alihan.

So after a lot of flattery, basically nothing happened.

However, the media doesn't think so, and the fans don't think so.

"Is he stupid? He actually refused to be recruited!"

"Doesn't he want a labor certification?"

"Does he not want to play in the Asian Cup?"

"Does he not want to play World Cup qualifiers?"

Chinese fans are fried.

"A league is more important than the future of your own national team and Manchester United? The probability of Antwerp's relegation is so low, is it worth taking such a risk?"

"If it were me, I would definitely report back to China!"

"Just scored a few goals, and now he is a big star? Doesn't he know that the home game against HK will be in a few days?"

"If the Chinese team can't win HK, he will be responsible!"

Dong Fangzhuo often reads the domestic news on the Internet. Facing the incomprehension of so many fans, he can only shake his head with a wry smile.

Could it be,

You never thought about it,

If I go back to play this friendly match,

Is it really meaningless?

But,

If the Chinese team can't win HK, why should I be responsible?

What is the reason for this?

Fortunately, on the 17th, the Chinese team won the opponent 1:0 at home, and Dong Fangzhuo did not take the blame...

Two days later, Dong Fangzhuo played miraculously in the league again.

Although it was another missed score, he has expanded the number of goals to 8.

The second time he scored twice, his popularity continued to explode.

Some fans made a goal collection for him on the Internet, and analyzed each of his goals in detail.

"Dong Fangzhuo is very comprehensive, his technique is very concise, and his running position is also very coquettish."

"Among his eight goals, there was a one-handed goal that used speed to reverse offside, a penalty kick created by himself, and the remaining six goals were all shot opportunities created by continuous running. The way of shooting is quite simple."

"Don't look at him who is only nineteen years old, his running position is absolutely amazing."

Excellent movement.

It was the first thing fans talked about.

Yes, Dong Fangzhuo now has a deep understanding of running positions.

One is the experience he accumulated in his previous life, and the other is that he is very familiar with his teammates.

Of course he took advantage of it.

Fans can sum it up like this, wouldn't Ferguson?

"Little Fanny?"

Ruud van Nistelrooy is known as the king of the penalty area, Dong Fangzhuo is now scoring goals through coquettish running and grabbing points, Ferguson naturally thought of Ruud van Nistelrooy, another great god of Manchester United.

He couldn't help muttering, it's not surprising that Fanny has developed his skills through a lot of training and competitions, but Dong Fangzhuo is only nineteen years old, so his progress is too fast, right?

With his outstanding performance, Dong Fangzhuo was also elected as the best player of the Belgian League One this month.

Then, he also got his first salary.

When he got his salary, Dong Fangzhuo went to do the same thing he did in his previous life...
