Chapter 164: China Super League and China League One


After scoring, Hu Lai was replaced by Zhao Kangming, and the flashing stars shrank across the board and put up a bus in front of the door. Nan'an Jinpeng had a full 20 minutes to besiege Flash Star's goal, but has never been able to score.
In the end, with Hu Lai's goal, Shining Star defeated Nan'an Jinpeng 1:0 away.
This can be regarded as a "surprise joy" for Flash Star who intends to go all out to prepare for the FA Cup. This three-pointer is like a white pick...
On the Sunday after the game, the Stars will play at home against the Chinese Super League team Haihe Shuanggang.
At the same time, it was supposed to be the eighteenth round of the league at this time, and because the FA Cup match was postponed to Wednesday, September 20.
When the FA Cup reached the quarter-finals, it became more concerned than before.
After all, at this time in previous years, it was basically a game for Chinese Super League teams.
The last time a Chinese A team reached the FA Cup quarter-finals was six years ago.
As a Chinese First-Class team this season, Flash Star has reached the FA Cup quarter-finals, which naturally attracted the attention of many people.
It's just that this kind of attention is more of a mockery of Flash Star, and everyone is not optimistic that they can continue to move forward.
Fans posted a picture on Weibo. From the first point of view when they woke up from a coma, they saw many people around them. Each of the onlookers wore the logo of a Chinese Super League team that reached the top eight. . There was a sentence on the picture: "What's the matter with you, little brother?"
The Chinese Super League team, which is watched by the big buddies of the Super League, looks pitiful, weak and helpless. Isn't it just a little brother?
Don't look at the flashing stars currently ranking first in the Chinese League, and their momentum is fierce, and don't look at them and the Nanhai team in the top battle of the Chinese League.
But these things are not enough in the eyes of fans of the Super League team and most of the media.
This is not because people deliberately look down on the flashing stars, but from the actual situation, it is indeed like this.
Hexi Daqin and the capital Xiangyun played so well in the Chinese League last season. As a result, they were rubbed on the ground in the Chinese Super League after their promotion. One was already in the relegation zone, and the other was not far from the relegation zone.
Therefore, it is useless for you to shine in the Chinese Premier League. The Chinese Super League and the Chinese Premier League are not in the same dimension. The Chinese Premier League champions must start from relegation obediently.
Even Anton’s local media told fans not to have any expectations for this game. Anton’s goal this season is to upgrade, and the FA Cup can be abandoned until the quarter-finals. In fact, if it weren't for the weak opponents before, Shining Star might have given up the FA Cup long ago...
After returning to Jincheng from Nan'an, before the whole team started training, Zhao Kangming gathered everyone together and held a very brief mobilization meeting to tell all the players about his plan.
"...I believe some people guessed it when I implemented the rotation. Contrary to those outside speculations, I do not intend to give up the FA Cup, or that I do not intend to give up this round of the FA Cup. You all know, Our goal this season is to upgrade, but what about after being promoted to the Super League?" Zhao Kangming asked the players in front of him. "Do you fight for relegation like Daqin in Hexi and Xiangyun in the capital, or just fall back to the middle one?"
The players looked at each other and no one answered the head coach's questions.
"I think no one wants to go to the Super League and return to the first division for a season, right? What does the Super League mean? For you, it means more attention and higher income-at least every game wins. The ball bonus standard is much higher than it is now. But if you return to the middle one, then these will be gone. You definitely don’t want to do this, so in order to avoid our promotion and relegation, I want to give it a try. What performance can the Super League team show."
When Director Zhao said so, there was a commotion among the players.
Chen Mo stood up and shouted, "Quiet!"
The commotion soon disappeared, and everyone looked at the coach again, with various thoughts in their eyes.
Zhao Kangming continued: "Therefore, the Football Association Cup is a good opportunity. It is the only chance we can play against the Super League team. I hope that each of you will give your best in the game-if you want to To stay in the team after the promotion, at least you have to prove to me and the club management that you can compete with the Super League team and you have the strength to play in the Super League."
When talking about this, Zhao Kangming's expression is very serious, which makes people think that he is not joking, but serious.
In fact, Zhao Kangming really believes that if these players prove that they are not up to the requirements of the Super League in the game, then it is better to get together.
After the upgrade, the team will definitely be updated. It's just like when Flash Star made it from China League Two to China League One, the team's lineup has almost changed by more than half.
Of course, after the promotion this time, there will not be such a drastic exchange of blood, but there will be survival of the fittest.
The players are very quiet this time, and they also know that this is the cruelty of professional football.
"So, based on the above reasons, we are competing against Haihe Shuanggang. Regardless of whether we win or lose, I ask each of you to do your best. Remember, if we lose, it can only be because we are inferior to others, absolutely not. Because of other reasons."

After finishing the training, the players returned to the locker room and talked about what Director Zhao said before the training.
"I rarely see such a serious Director Zhao..."
"This shows that Director Zhao is serious, absolutely not just for fun."
"I think Director Zhao is right. I am actually curious about where we are from the Super League team. Now we finally have a chance to see the Super League team."
There are not many people who have experience in the Super League teams in the Star Array. If you want to say who has the most experience in this aspect...
Everyone turned their attention to Qin Lin.
When Qin Lin saw this, he stood up and said to everyone: "All the requirements of the Chinese Super League are higher than those of the Chinese Premier League, but they are not incredible, otherwise it will not be the Chinese Super League, but the Premier League. Specifically, the Super League teams have higher requirements for discipline and training. After all, many of the Super League teams are foreign teachers, and they are indeed more professional."
"Ge Lin, I heard that if the Chinese Super League team does not allow foreign aid, it will be similar to our Chinese League team. Is this really the case?" Han Xiangfei asked.
"It depends on what team it is. If the top four teams in the Chinese Super League and the downstream teams in the Super League do not get foreign aid, they do have a fight. But with the top four teams in the Super League, even if the opponent does not get foreign aid, we It's not easy to fight either." Qin Lin explained. "The game we played against the South China Sea some time ago was not described by the media as a top-level clash in the Chinese Premier League? But if our opponent in that game was replaced by the top four in the Chinese Super League, then we would lose. In the game, the confrontation will be more intense and the rhythm will be faster. We may keep up with their rhythm in a short time, but if the whole game is played like this, we may be dragged down first."
Speaking of this, Qin Lin suddenly realized that he might have said something serious. He was afraid of damaging the confidence of his teammates, so he added: "Of course, I mean under normal circumstances. If we go all out, the opponent If we are not so caring about us, the outcome is hard to say. After all, our team’s training level is not low. Now there is a situation that is beneficial to us, that is, almost everyone agrees that we are a Chinese team. We are destined to not win the Chinese Super League team, and some people think that we will take this opportunity to give up the FA Cup and concentrate on playing the league. I believe that if we think about it, we have a chance to beat them. After all, Haihe Shuanggang They are not strong in the Chinese Super League. They are now ranked tenth and their level is no higher than ours."
Captain Li Tielin also stood up and said: "In short, the game against Haihe Shuanggang will definitely be more difficult than all the games we have played before, but it does not mean that we will lose. Everyone trains hard and goes all out in the game. Hopefully it will overturn the Super League team."

"Ugh……"
Hu Lixin, who was eating, heard his wife suddenly sigh.
He raised his head and looked at his wife across the table in confusion: "What's the matter?"
"Today I read a lot of articles, including the team reporter Chen Jianyu of Shining Star, who vowed to say that Shining Star will definitely give up the Football Association Cup this time..."
Hu Lixin rolled his eyes, and his wife who dared to love his wife was worried about this: "Isn't that good? I was eliminated from the FA Cup, and I concentrated on playing the league. You can watch the Super League next season."
"What you said makes sense, but I just hope our son can win..."
"How can it be so easy to win? Their opponent is the Super League team, what do you think the Super League team is?" Hu Lixin waved his hand.
"Then how did the amateur team win consecutive games and beat the top place in the first class?" Xie Lan retorted.
"That's because the South China Sea team underestimated the enemy. Do you think Flashing Star defeated them easily?"
"Then why Haihe Shuanggang wouldn't underestimate the enemy?"
Hu Lixin felt that his wife was simply arguing with himself. He frowned and said, "Do you know the ball or I know the ball?"
Unexpectedly, Xie Lan snorted coldly after hearing this: "You are embarrassed to say, Hu Lixin. You vowed to say that our son will hit some ‘rookie wall’ in the second season... The result? Do you dare to say that you are not slandering me?"
Hu Lixin didn't expect his wife to open which pot or not to mention which pot. He bit his head and said, "Of course I didn't blame you. Generally speaking, it is true... But there are always special cases. Hu Lai is a special case..."
Xie Lan waited for his words. She slapped her slap: "Yes, you all know that there are special cases. Our son is a special case on the'Rookie Wall', so how can our son be a special case in the Football Association Cup? It’s not as good as you understand football, but I think the reason why football is so popular is not because we beat the strong with the weak? Just like when we played the South Korean team in the East Asian Cup, everyone thought that the Chinese team would lose before the game. The data proves that the Chinese team should lose. The result? We won! How happy everyone was at the time! Why couldn't this be the case in the FA Cup?"
Hu Lixin opened his mouth and didn't say anything to refute his wife, because he found that his wife was right.
He can only shook his head: "What are you doing so much worry about? Wouldn't it be over after watching the game? Anyway, this FA Cup game is Sunday and you don't have to go to work. It's useless to say anything about winning or losing before the game."
