Vol 3 Chapter 26: Some regrets

After the end of the day of the holiday, Dortmund resumed training to prepare for the sprint of the first official game of the new season.
August 7th is the league's opener, with last season's league champion Wolfsburg against last season's league third Stuttgart.
The next day, the league will fully open. One day on August 8, all the remaining games were played.
The first league match in Dortmund was on the afternoon of August 8, at 9:30 pm Beijing time, which was a very suitable time for live broadcast.
China’s national television station has given a preview, and they will broadcast live on the Fengyun Football Channel at 9:30 pm, August 8, Beijing time.
Why is it placed on Fengyun Football Channel instead of the traditional sports channel?
Because this day was a coincidence, at the Beijing Bird's Nest, an Italian Super Cup match was played at the same time, with the Serie A champion Inter Milan against the Italian Cup champion Lazio.
Because this game is not only an Italian Super Cup, but also a commemorative event to celebrate the first anniversary of the opening of the Beijing Olympic Games, it is more important to pay attention to it, so naturally it must be broadcast on the most extensive sports channel.
The Bundesliga can only make way for the Italian Super Cup.
This makes some Bundesliga fans uncomfortable, because Fengyun Football Channel is a paid channel, not everyone will choose to order it. Putting it on Fengyun Football Channel means that many people will not see this game.
"We need to see Zhou Yi!" Someone protested online and quickly received a response from many people.
But this does not change the CCTV broadcast plan. After all, the Italian Super Cup also has this very important political significance, and the Bundesliga round is too insignificant compared to it. What if there are Chinese overseas players?
※※※
At the time when there was a lot of talk about broadcasting in China, in Germany, the first round of the league was already in sight.
Dortmund in the first round of the league is home, their opponent is Cologne.
So on the day before the game, Klopp announced the big list of the next day's game.
Zhou Yi is not in it.
When he heard the head coach read the full list, Zhou Yi was not surprised by this result. He knew it before. There are many signs that he will not play in the first team so quickly. But to be honest, Zhou Yi still regretted not being surprised. He said to others that he certainly would not play the game so quickly, does not mean that he did not want to play.
He still hopes to play in the league. He also didn't want to be like the last year's Goetze, after two months of training in the first team. Was downgraded to U19 again. What is the point if he returns to the original point after a round turn?
Only harder training.
After the announcement of the big list, the team was dissolved. The players returned to the locker room.
Like Zhou Yi, Goetze, who was not on the big list, was a little unhappy. He also hopes to play in the first team, and he may be more anxious than Zhou Yi. Because last season he has been transferred to the first team to train with the team for more than two months, but he has not played in a minute. If this is still the case, it would be better to let him stay in the youth team... At least there is a game to play.
If this time it ends in returning to the youth team. That's too shameful for Goetze, who has been wearing the title of "Dortmund's number one genius" since childhood.
So his emotional performance is much more obvious than that of Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi also noticed this point shown by Goetze.
After returning to the dressing room. Grosskreuz hugged Zhou Yi to comfort him: "It's okay, Zhou Yi, I think with your ability, you can play soon!"
"It's okay, Kevin, I'm okay." Zhou Yi smiled at the enthusiastic person Gross Kreuz. "Anyway, Mario is with me."
Gotze next to him turned to look at him: "What's the matter with me?"
"Don't you not enter the big list?" Zhou Yi said. "Good brother, there is a hard time!"
"I don't want to be with you!" Gotze rolled his eyes and failed to enter the big list. He was depressed, not in a good mood, and he didn't speak well.
"Ah, Mario, you are so unsympathetic!" Zhou Yi covered her heart with a sad expression. "I treat you as a friend, but you treat me like this!"
Goetze was tricked by Zhou Yi's superb acting skills, he quickly explained: "No, I don't mean that, I also treat you as a friend, but I also..."
Seeing Gece's helpless explanation, Zhou Yi laughed: "I lied to you!"
Gotze froze for a moment, and then reacted, then pounced on Zhou Yi: "Asshole Zhou Yi! You tease me!"
"You are so stupid, so easy to be deceived!" Zhou Yi defended himself while avoiding Gotze's "attack".
"I don't care! You have deceived my feelings!" Getze shouted.
"Relax, I will be responsible for you, Mario!"
The two young men made a mess.
Seeing this scene, Weidenfeller couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's nice to be young, so quickly unhappy emotions are left behind..."
"No, it was Zhou Yi who changed Mario's mood. Mario didn't want to say a word in silence before." Captain Kyle observed very carefully. As the captain, he naturally wanted to master the situation of all his teammates.
"Zhou Yi's mentality is quite good. How hard he has been training before. We all see it in his eyes. He must also want to play in the game, but he didn't even enter the roster, but he still wanted to comfort. Mario... Judging from his age, it’s not easy to do so.
said second captain Dede.
"I used to think that the Chinese are the kind of people who work hard in silence, they are not good at speaking, they don't understand humor. But Zhou Yi changed my view of the Chinese." Another Brazilian, the team's central defender Philippine Lippe Santana also said. "He is such a great kid!"

After dinner at the training restaurant of the training base, Zhou Yicai returned home-he is now living alone, most of the time it is troublesome, he will eat in the training base. One of the biggest benefits of eating at the training base is that you will not eat what professional players cannot.
There are several restaurants in the Bracker training base, but there is only one player restaurant, only players are allowed to dine here, others are not good.
Coaches and staff have other places to eat. Those restaurants can even allow fans and reporters who come to the training base to watch the training to pay for meals here, but they cannot go to the player restaurant.
The recipes in the player's restaurant are in accordance with the requirements of the head coach and team medical team. Strictly controlled. It is necessary to take into account both nutrition and energy, and at the same time to ensure the source of the ingredients, not to eat meat containing hormones.
So eating here is safe and healthy for Zhou Yi. Also worry.
If it weren’t for the food that Cortana had made, Zhou Yi wanted to eat here all the time.
Have eaten. Back home, Zhou Yi turned on his computer and logged into QQ. Tell his dad by leaving a message that he will not play in the first round of the league.
"... Dad, tell you the unfortunate news-your son me. Not selected for the big list!"
This news was just sent out. Zhou Yi was going to take a shower before his left the chair. Hearing the sound of "Dididi", he looked at the screen. Dad replied in a second: "What's the matter?!"
"Don't you, dad, did you sleep?" Zhou Yi quickly sat down again and replied in surprise. This time is 7:30 pm Berlin time, Germany. There is a six-hour time difference between Germany and China. At this time, it should be at 1:30 in the morning at home. Zhou Yi was naturally surprised that his dad had not slept so late.
"Pay attention to the words! I'm your dad, don't rely on me! I ask you what's going on? Isn't your training very good?" Dad's reply was surprisingly serious.
"Training well doesn't mean you are going to play."
"So why should you make a big list?"
"Dad, we have thirty-three people in the first team. Do you think it is so easy to enter the roster? Didn’t I tell you before? My physical fitness is not up to standard and I can’t meet the coach’s requirements , The first round of the league entered the big list, it is impossible..."
After a while, Zhou Jianliang just returned: "Ah. I also said to buy a Fengyun Football Channel to watch your game, this is better, save money..."
"Fengyun Football Channel? What happened?"
"Tomorrow five broadcast live Italian Super Cup, Dortmund's game was put on Fengyun Football Channel, many fans online are scolding CCTV."
"Hi, that's not necessary. The Super Cup game is definitely more important than a regular league game."
"But with your game, it's no ordinary game."
"Fortunately, I didn't play, otherwise the fans will not fry?"
"You can't say that. Your mentality is wrong, son. You can't be glad that you missed the chance to play!" Zhou Jianliang said seriously.
"I know, I know, Dad. I am not reconciled, but is there any way to be reconciled? It is really not up to me to decide whether to play or not. It is up to the coach to decide. In addition to training, I There is no other way."
"Well... Dad shouldn't put pressure on you. You have worked very hard. Son, don't play without playing, we still have time and opportunity. Don't worry, training is right, but don't hurt yourself, Injury during training is really too much to come. You are alone, your parents can’t help you any more, you can now send money to your home, and you are completely financially independent, and we can’t treat you as old The child looked..."
Seeing the text that Dad knocked on QQ, Zhou Yi was touched. He touched his nose.
In fact, he knew that he didn't get a chance to play. His father was the most disappointed. From a young age, my father had put a lot of hope on him to play football. It was a feeling that his young dream was put on his children.
In terms of the urgency of hoping for success, no one in this world can match his father.
Why do you like football and why do you play football?
Wasn’t his father brought it from childhood?
In Dortmund, Zhou Yi saw examples such as Mark, his parents like football, so he also likes football. There are many such examples throughout Germany and even Europe.
And he is also fortunate to have a father who loves football in China, a place where football culture is scarce and barren.
He didn't think it was a pressure for Dad to put his young dreams on himself.
He is more willing to regard this as... inheritance.
"Dad, I will work hard and protect myself. You can rest assured. You and your mother have a good time at home. I will go back to see you on winter vacation."
"Well, don't worry about me and your mom. As for going home, don't think about things that far away, kick the ball well, it's more important than anything."
"I know, then I'm going to take a bath, dad. I haven't washed it yet."
"Go, I also fell asleep."

Zhou Jianliang pierced his eyes from the bridge of his nose, put it on the table, and then rubbed the eye points on both sides of his bridge.
"End of chat?" The wife's voice came from behind.
"Well, my son is not on the big list."
Behind him Li Cuiyun sat up from the bed: "What do you mean?"
"Just not play."
Li Cuiyun was silent for a while, just oh.
Zhou Jianliang sighed: "I don't know when I'm going to wait."
"I said Old Zhou..." Li Cuiyun stopped talking.
"what?"
"You said...you said our son, wouldn't he go back to the youth team because he couldn't play in the first team?"
"Impossible!" Zhou Jianliang froze for a moment~EbookFREE.me~ and shook his head firmly. "All registered for him, how can I still go to the youth team? Impossible, impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
"Oh, that's good. Go to bed, it's almost two o'clock." Li Cuiyun yawned, and fell back to bed.
"Good." Zhou Jianliang got up and undressed. But his mind was still thinking about his wife's last words.
Although he said several times in his mouth that it was impossible, he was still a little uncertain, because as a fan, he naturally knew that this situation might happen. If the first team cannot play, the team Always have to find a way out for Zhou Yi. Being unable to play the game has a great hindrance to the growth of ability. Then... it is not impossible to return to the youth team to participate in the game.
But if the son returns to the youth team, can't he see him on TV again?
Zhou Jianliang was entangled in his heart. This night I am afraid that he may not sleep well...
