Chapter 64 The Strong Mark

The Chinese Youth Team is now ranked first in the group, and their next opponent will be the second Swedish team in another group. Speaking of which, the Swedish team is a typical Eastern European team, with strong physical fitness and solid personal abilities. It is also very prepared for such a team.

"We must give full play to our technical advantages to restrain the Swedish team's offense." In the hotel, head coach Yin Tiesheng made tactical arrangements for the players around him. This time, Yin Tiesheng made up his mind to complete a historic breakthrough.

So he was also enduring Mark's request. In fact, he felt that he didn't have to be able to overcome good results. Mark is the only guarantee of his results now, and he felt that Mark is not very difficult to manage. Mark's fighting spirit and professional qualities on the court are not possessed by all players, so Yin Tiesheng now has included Mark in the starting lineup.

Mark appeared in this meeting as a starting midfielder. In fact, Yin Tiesheng didn't know that it would cost money to use the hotel conference room now. If he knew, he would definitely not waste such a waste of pre-war mobilization meeting every day and said so much nonsense.

However, the current Chinese Youth Team players are mainly young players after all. The characteristics of young people are very enthusiastic. Because they are all very passionate, the current meeting is very successful under Yin Tiesheng's sensational performance, and the morale of all the players is also very high.

The China Youth Team actually came to the stadium with such a touch. All the players nowadays hope to enter the finals, because this is an unprecedented opportunity for Chinese football. If they can successfully defeat the Swedish team, these players will be recorded in history and let everyone remember their names.

At the same time, their value will increase when they return to the club. All the players are now holding up a lot of energy. As long as they can enter the finals, the suffering these players suffer here will be compensated for.

After the game between the two teams started, both teams performed very cautiously, which was related to the arrangement of the head coach before the game. After all, the China Youth Team qualified as the first in the group, so the Swedish team was quite afraid of its relatively mysterious opponent.

Mark, who started in this game, was closely guarded by Swedish players. Although Mark was the midfielder, the head coach of the Swedish team regarded Mark as the midfielder to guard. This was entirely because Mark's performance in the Toulon Cup was too dazzling. Now Mark has become the object of research for all teams.

The French and Brazilian teams who are now playing on the field also regard Mark as an imaginary enemy on their next promotion.

So it is not surprising that Mark is being taken care of now, but the players in the Toulon Cup are just some players in European second-rate leagues and also play in mainstream leagues. However, they are not players of giant teams, but also players of giant teams but not main players.

Few main players from giant teams like Mark participate in such cup matches, because players like Mark who have the ability to play in giant clubs are basically selected for the national Olympic team or the national team, and they are very disdainful of such competitions.

But Mark didn't know why the Chinese Football Association did not recruit him to the National Olympic Team or the national team. However, since Mark appeared on the stadium, Mark played every game as life, because these opportunities were exchanged for Mark's life.

So attitude determines everything. Mark's physical fitness and skills have also improved greatly after one year of exercise in the Netherlands. In addition, his endless attitude makes Mark's failure at all.

The current Swedish players are only on defense against Mark, but they ignore that other players of the China Youth Team also have certain strength, at least their personal skills are still very good. Therefore, although Mark is now defended, his overall attack on the China Youth Team has become active.

But has the Swedish team really defended the China Youth Team? Maybe, but more of it should be that Mark feels that there is no need to invest too much in the offense now.

The current Chinese Youth Team's middle defense is basically completed by Mark alone. Mark's partner's current defensive ability is not very strong, so Mark's defensive pressure is still very high. Although the quality of the current game cannot be compared with that of the European Cup or World Cup, young players also have their advantages, that is, they are physically abundant.

Especially for teams like Sweden, Sweden is called Pirates. Teams with such nicknames naturally cannot have very little physical fitness and defensive movements, so the players on the court are now in contact with each other very frequently.

There were several times when the players of the Chinese Youth Team and the Swedish team had to start, but these did not hinder the progress of the game. The referee also warned some of the players of these two players before continuing to reply to the game.

However, the referee's weak performance did not change the situation on the court, but instead made the rhythm on the court worse and worse. In the 30th minute, Swedish team's Svenson directly knocked Mark to the ground like cutting a tree after Mark got the ball and prepared for the attack.

"Shh" Many fans who cheered for the Chinese Youth Team on the spot booed. There was naturally Mark's girlfriend Koros. Koros is very worried about Mark's physical condition now, because she saw Svenson's defensive movements very big in the distance. Although Mark was still knocked down after jumping up, Koros is also watching the game on the court with great concern. She hopes that Mark can stand up directly now.

It was obvious that Colos' hope became a show. Mark stood up shortly afterwards, and then he said to the referee protester: "His move just now should be a red card."

In fact, Mark was right. Svenson's foul just now was a tackle behind the back, and he should have been shown a red card. But the referee obviously had his plans. He showed Svenson a yellow card and then warned Svenson.

The current head coach of the Swedish team is also yelling at the referee on the sidelines, as if their players were wronged.

Now Mark looked at his injured leg and couldn't help but smile bitterly, because the necklace just now emitted another light and wrapped Mark inside. This shows that Mark's injury just now was very serious, otherwise the necklace would not help him repair his body.

Mark is a little depressed now. He feels that he is not in a strong momentum on the court. He didn't expect that his majestic momentum in the Eredivisie would make these players in the Toulon Cup unaware, and there are also people who are playing black feet on him. This really makes Mark very angry. Mark decided to find an opportunity to take revenge on Svensen.

It is familiar to say that a gentleman takes revenge for ten years, but Mark is not a gentleman now. If Mark wants to take revenge, he wants to avenge it now, so Mark is looking for the right opportunity.

However, after Mark got up intact, Svenson was also surprised. His tackle just now clearly felt that he had already tackled Mark's calf. According to Svenson's experience, even if Mark did not have a fracture, he should have been injured. But what he didn't expect was that Mark would stand up directly, and nothing happened.

"Is this guy a monster?" Svensen developed a fear of Mark for the first time in his heart. This fear comes from an instinctive fear of things he does not understand. In fact, people are afraid of unknown matters, just like ghosts, no one has seen them, but most people are afraid when listening to ghost stories. That's the reason.

Now Mark is looking for a chance to take revenge. This is the 40th minute of the game. The Swedish team is in control of the ball. They called out the middle from the side. Mark saw a chance. When the football was on the flying route, Mark ran towards the football. Svensen is now preparing to catch the ball, but Svensen soon discovered that Mark rushed over. He knew that he would never give up this opportunity. If Mark cut off the football and counterattacked, it would definitely be a disaster.

Because the Swedish team is attacking now, most of the players have already run through the half. As a midfielder, Svensen is not many people behind him, so he decided to compete with Mark. He doesn't believe that Mark's body is really that tough, it's really like steel, so Svensen rushed towards Mark now.

Mark did not intend to have a head-on conflict with Svenson now. Mark was preparing to stop the football, so Mark now ran towards the football directly.

Svenson now saw Mark running towards the football, and he had a little thought, that is, he was going to drive the football directly and then hit Mark's head, and I believe Mark would not have a good time.

So Svensen directly kicked off the ball with big feet and was ready to shoot at Mark's head, but Mark's speed was much faster than him after all. The football is still flying in the air, and Svensen just had to roughly judge the trajectory of the football and then made a shooting move.

At this time, Mark also jumped up and shoveled towards the football. If Mark's current movements were indeed faster than Svenson, so Mark shoveled the football before Svenson, and then before Svenson made a shooting move, Mark used his body's inertia to directly shoveled Svenson's support foot.

Svenson fell to the ground and couldn't get up. The referee stopped the game and came to ask about Svenson's injury. The players on both sides also got entangled.

However, it is true that Mark did not make a foul this time, because Mark first tackled the football and then met the person. However, probably because Mark's move was too big, the referee still gave Mark a yellow card to warn him.

"I didn't foul, I just met him by inertia. This is unfair, the referee," Mark explained to the referee.

The referee is obviously a bit biased towards the Swedish team players now. Because he is a European, he naturally cannot be directed towards the team from Asia, so he will naturally be biased towards the European team. Although Sweden is also a second-rate team in Europe, it is also a European team after all. We can play in our own homes, but you cannot let your Asian team teach them a lesson.

The current referee enforces the law in this competition based on this principle.

"Your foul just now was too big and your shoe studs were exposed, so it's not too much to give you a yellow card warning," the referee explained to Mark.

"I'll go, when did I reveal my shoe nails? Do I still know whether I have exposed my shoe nails?" Mark thought to himself, but Mark also knew that the defense of himself and the referee was useless. The referee now obviously favors the Swedish team. Although Mark doesn't know why, Mark can probably know why it is for.

Isn’t it because it looks down on the Chinese team and because of the lack of status in international football?

Mark is too lazy to argue with the referee now. Anyway, he takes revenge and it is true. Svensen has been carried off the court by the Swedish team doctor. After the team doctor's examination, Svensen can no longer continue the game, so the Swedish team made the first substitution adjustment.

Then the situation on the court is still very chaotic. The Chinese Youth Team is very uncomfortable with Sweden's physical contact, so the two teams took advantage of this opportunity to make a big fuss, pushing each other and swearing each other.

The two teams ended the conflict after the referee showed a yellow card warning to the players of the two teams. The next two teams completed the next game unfriendly.

Both sides entered the locker room with a score of zero to zero.

"Mark, your movements were very big and very unfriendly just now." Yin Tiesheng, the head coach of the China Youth Team, criticized Mark in the locker room. He believed that Mark's movements just now were very bad and should not have made such bad moves, which would hurt the image of Chinese football.

"I just fought normally. Wouldn't you let me fight normally? Then I'll stand there and watch the game." Mark responded directly without giving Yin Tiesheng face: "And you saw what he did to me? He wanted to destroy me. Can't I fight against him yet?"

"This..." Yin Tiesheng was suddenly out of power when Mark said it. He didn't know what was wrong with him. There was such a thorn player, but he didn't leave this thorn player.

Because Yin Tiesheng in the first half knew that if Mark hadn't intercepted in the midfield, Sweden might have scored now, but what is happening now made him very angry. He felt that even if the team needed you, you should give the head coach a face. After all, the current team was not the time when Mark could be the dominant ball.

"Okay, you must continue to work hard in the second half to score another goal." Yin Tiesheng changed the subject and made tactical arrangements.

The players of the China Youth Team now admire Mark for his courage to tell the truth and then can fight against the head coach at the same time. They can't do this because they are still young and want to perform well in the China Youth Team and get a better contract. It's not like Mark playing football with Ajax now, so he doesn't have to worry about the contract. However, some players also have a bad premonition in their hearts. They think Mark's life in the China Youth Team will not be too long. Now it's because of the game that the head coach will indulge him so much, but after the Toulon Cup is over.

But Mark didn't think so much about it. Anyway, the environment of the national youth team is relatively better, which is why Mark is willing to play here. If these players are professional players, they believe Mark would not be in such a good mood. After all, professional players under the dark rule of Chinese football have become relatively lost in progress for the game. In their eyes, everything is a tool that can be used. Mark heard that some players were still involved in betting on football when they were fighting for the World Cup. Although this was the instruction of officials of the Football Association, the participation of these players is also indispensable.

Mark believes that one day these Football Association officials and players will be subject to severe trials by law, and now it is just not exposed. If it is exposed, all of these so-called Football Association officials and those chairman will be dragged down.

"Brothers, you hand over the ball to me in the second half, just like against Turkey. The second half is time for us to attack, let the Pirates know how powerful our Great China is." Mark shouted to his teammates around him: "Let those Football Association officials see that they don't pay attention to our outcome, do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, okay, okay," everyone shouted loudly.

Since Mark has established a high popularity in the team in these Toulon Cup games, many players believe in Mark and hand over the football to him to attack, because Mark can always change the situation on the court, whether it is shooting or assisting, this is a kind of domineering attitude.

After hearing Mark's shouting, everyone responded very much. He just nodded and didn't say anything. It must be that his heart is very complicated now. He thinks that the players' games on the court are good, but as the head coach, he seems to be not as motivating morale as Mark, which also makes him feel very jealous. But this is not important, because he always believes that a strong Mark will definitely win the team.
