European Cup!
This is known as the most valuable national team cup besides the Hercules Cup. It can be said that it is the dream of all European teams.
As early as November 8, 2005, UEFA conducted preliminary voting for the five countries bidding for the 2012 European Cup. Italy ranked first with 11 votes, the joint bid team of Croatia and Hungary ranked second with 9 votes, and Poland ranked second. The joint bidding team with Ukraine ranked third with 7 votes.
Greece received only two votes and was eliminated together with Turkey, which received 6 votes. Three bidders passed the primary election.
On April 18, 2007, in the final round of voting, Poland and Ukraine received 8 votes, Italy received 4 votes, and Croatia and Hungary received 0 votes. In this way, Poland and Ukraine won the right to host the 2012 European Cup. .
As for why Croatia has a poor 0 votes!
Su Qin didn't know this. He only knew that on the night he arrived at the temporary base in Croatia, all the leaders of the Croatian Football Association rushed to the training base.
Forehead.
The leaders of the Football Association!
It's the same all over the world. After coming here, it's nothing more than making official remarks and encouraging their players. However, unlike a country with a large population such as the Indian Football Association, which asks players for money, the Croatian Football Association takes money to give to Croatia. The whole team has a pep rally!
It's said to be a mobilization rally, but in fact it's just that the poor Croatian Football Association, in order to allow Bilic to lead the team well and fight out of the death group of Group C, has held them in its arms for almost two years and won the third place in the World Cup. The reward was taken out.
Croatia is very poor. The whole team was given a bonus of 10 million euros, and more than half of it was misappropriated by the Croatian Football Association in various names. The players like Su Qin were given a bonus of 10 million euros each. Come on!
Not to mention, with the participation of reporters, the ceremony was grand!
Although Su Qin, Croatia's current star player, has been questioned by various media due to a serious injury, the Croatian Football Association has not said anything about looking down on Su Qin.
Even the top management of the Football Association has appointed Su Qin as the vice-captain of the Croatian national team.
What is the concept of a 21-year-old vice-captain!
This means that as long as the 31-year-old Croatian veteran captain is not on the court, Su Qin will directly serve as Croatia's on-field captain.
According to the original order, Modric should be the first-choice successor, but there is no way. Who made Su Qin's current reputation and personal ability become the face of the Croatian national team?
June 19, 2012!
There are less than 2 days left before the official opening of the European Cup.
The Croatian team, which has arrived in the Polish city of Gdansk for the first match, accepted an exclusive interview with China Sports Channel, which has arrived in Poland one step ahead.
During the interview, the host Huang Jianxiang specifically asked the old captain Srna’s opinion on Su Qin’s appointment as deputy captain!
Sirna knew that Su Qin was half of Chinese blood, and he also knew what kind of reputation Su Qin had in China today.
Therefore, after hearing Lao Huang's question, Srna praised Su Qin very eloquently in front of Lao Huang!
"Su is definitely the greatest center in the past century!"
"In the World Cup, we achieved the best results since the establishment of the Croatian team, and all of that was due to Su Qin! Since then, the boss has been considering making Su the next captain of Croatia!"
"Being the captain of Croatia is not an honor. I think it is more of a responsibility for Su Qin!"
"The whole of Croatia is surrounding Su, and it is based on Su's tactics!"
"You also know that Croatia was assigned to the death group of Group C this time!"
"Our opponents are not only the traditional strong team Italy, but also the new World Cup champion Spain. These two teams are not easy opponents to deal with!"
“It’s not an easy thing to qualify from Group C!”
"There is also the issue of Su Qin's condition after recovering from injury that you just mentioned!"
"I have said it before, Su has always been the most powerful center in a century. Even though he has been away from the court for almost seven months, this will not affect his return to the court at all! "
Although Srna wanted to tell everything he saw during training, he still restrained himself from saying too much!
After all, who would have thought that Su Qin, who was criticized by everyone for his strength will drop drastically after a serious injury, and even completely withdraw from the T0 stage, would be so
That makes the defender desperate?
As for the reason why Srna held back and didn’t say anything!
Naturally, Croatia's first group stage opponent is Spain, whom they hate the most!
As soon as the interview with Srna ended.
Lao Huang couldn't wait to arrange for Su Qin to sit in front of the plane!
"Xiao Su! Long time no see!"
Not to mention, since Su Qin was seriously injured, even Lao Huang, who has been in constant contact with him, has not seen Su Qin for almost six months.
During this period of time, to be honest, without Su Qin, Lao Huang even found it boring to commentate on Real Madrid games.
If he hadn't signed another long-term contract with CTV, he would have wanted to resign and commentate on the Premier League.
"Long time no see, Brother Huang, you are still so energetic!"
"Tch, I'm so energetic. I haven't slept for several days! How are you, how are you recovering?"
The machine hadn't started yet, so Lao Huang started making trouble with Su Qin.
"That's it. The injury to my left leg has healed. Even the media and the medical team have said that the injury to my left leg is gone."
Before he finished speaking, Su Qin just shrugged and smiled bitterly.
Old Huang also knew what Su Qin meant.
As a professional football commentator, Huang knows Su Qin's helplessness. That kind of injury can really ruin a player!
"Okay, let's get started!"
In order not to waste Su Qin's time, Lao Huang just chatted for a few words.
Interview later!
It's just a normal daily interview.
What are the changes after Su Qin became Croatia's vice-captain, and whether Su Qin will continue to appear on the starting list since he has not played a game in more than half a year.
It's not that Huang thinks there is anything wrong with Su Qin's strength. The main reason is that Croatia's forward line is no longer the only option in the past.
The new Croatian center Mandzukic, who moved to Wolfsburg from the Croatian local league, has been completely out of the game in the past two years.
He has no other skills than this guy. Finding others to imitate is his specialty.
I don’t know why, but in the national team, I just asked Mandzukic to play exactly according to Su Qin’s style of play.
Originally, Mandzukic's playing style was somewhat similar to that of Su Qin. Who would have thought that under Old Bi's instructions, Mandzukic immediately regarded himself as Su Qin without waiting for a minute.
Unexpectedly, under deliberate imitation, Mandzukic unexpectedly perfectly fit Su Qin's original position.
Let’s put it this way!
It was that while Lao Bi was imitating Lao Mu, he also asked Mandzukic to imitate Su Qin!
A low-end and high-imitation version of Real Madrid-style Croatia appeared.
With this low-profile Real Madrid-style Croatia, they directly achieved a complete victory in the European Cup qualifiers and entered the main stage strongly.
Croatia while being interviewed by Sports Channel.
The new world champions, Spain, were also in their camp and accepted an exclusive interview with "World Sports News".
Because we were facing Croatia, our old World Cup rival, and this game was also Su Qin’s first show back on the court after a serious injury!
Therefore, this group match, which was already extremely popular, was even more popular than the European Cup final by Spanish media such as Mundo Deportivo.
Journalists know that at times like this, who to interview will become breaking news.
Therefore, there is no need to consider. Almost all the shots were given to Su Qin's mortal enemy Busquets by World Sports News!
As for why Busquets?
That's naturally why Busquets was injured twice in a row by Su Qin!
"Haha, Sue? I don't want to talk about that butcher in front of the camera!"
"He is a disgrace to modern football!"
"This season, without the existence of this butcher, I finally ended the whole season completely!"
"As you can see, our Barcelona has returned to the championship position!"
"Besides, that butcher is about to be kicked out of the team by Real Madrid!"
"Real Madrid will not spend so much money to raise an injured person who has no way to return to the top!"
"Okay, okay, I really don't want to talk too much about him!"
Although Busquets didn't want to talk about Su Qin's problem.
But these few answers from him directly demolished Su Qin to pieces.
There are injured players who cannot return to their peak, and Su is about to be kicked out of the team.
This is just short of directly saying that Su Qin, the butcher, was so seriously injured as retribution.
When Busquets said this in front of the camera, Pique stood aside with a smile!
Although he has been educated enough by Su Qin in the past two years, several months after Su Qin was deposed, Pique has once again become the strongest central defender in the entire La Liga.
Various clean sheets against opponents, various one-on-one counterattacks and goals made Lao Pi find his confidence again!
soon!
The World Sports newspaper published Busquets' speech on its front page.
As soon as the report came out, the entire European football world was once again in a panic!
The old rival’s speech is a mockery! ~
Although it is very bloody, this is indeed breaking news.
That night, Su Qin saw the newspaper.
However, it is different from Su Qin in the past.
Su Qin did not respond to Busquets's speech.
If it had been before, Su Qin would have opened Twitter at this moment and pushed Busquets the highlights of his goals against Barcelona.
Right in the room.
Su Qin glanced at the report, then smiled and threw the newspaper aside!
It's not that he's not angry, but Su Qin feels that now, there seems to be no need for him to lower his status with these people from Barcelona to vent his anger!
June 20, 2012!
Gdansk, Poland!
The first battle between Croatia and Spain was almost a day away from the start of the war.
A short, middle-aged man wearing a suit appeared in a hotel suite not far from the Croatian national team’s residence in Gdansk.
"Boss! I have contacted Raiola and he said he will be there soon!"
Just as the man sat down, a man wearing white traditional Arab clothing stood flatteringly next to the middle-aged man and reported!
"Oh, I see!"
After replying, the middle-aged man waved the man in white robe standing beside him to leave.
Waiting for the man in white robe to close the door.
The middle-aged man turned his gaze to the opposite side.
"Mr. Mansour, why did you come here in person?"
Yes!
This short middle-aged man is Mansour, the current owner of Manchester City Club and the head of the UAE Super Consortium!
Mansour's only purpose here is to support his head coach Mancini.
"Is it okay if I don't come for such an important thing?"
"Haha, Mr. Mansour, to be honest, we don't have many competitors nowadays. I believe that as long as the price is enough, Su will definitely choose Manchester City!"
"No, no, no! Robert, although I have never met that Su, but from my understanding, a proud young man like Su does not only care about money. We must let that Su see the sincerity of Manchester City! Real Madrid really don’t know what they think, Su is just injured, he’s not old, he’s only 21 years old!”
"Boss, you don't understand the people at Real Madrid. Real Madrid has no shortage of stars. They already have Cristiano Ronaldo. Moreover, because of Su Qin's suppression, Cristiano Ronaldo is very obedient now. Cristiano Ronaldo still has a long peak period. When they have to choose one of the two, they will not be at a loss no matter who they choose! Moreover, the most important thing is that Su, because of this serious injury, has become a time bomb in Real Madrid's hands! If Su's left leg is injured again If he is injured, then it is very likely that he will have to retire before he is thirty! If you think about it this way, it is not difficult to understand why Real Madrid is still making a fuss over Su Qin's image rights!"
Mancini's words are very thorough!
Mansour also understood why Real Madrid would choose to touch a person who would definitely make Su Qin fall out at this critical moment when Su Qin renewed his contract.
to be honest!
All this is because of money!
Well, for Real Madrid, money is an issue!
But for Mansour, this is not a problem that can be solved with money!
He has invested an unknown amount of money in Manchester City, but Manchester City is still in a half-dead state. Can they still win a championship or something in the Premier League, or in the Champions League?
When Manchester City reached the knockout stage, it was as if their legs were weak and they couldn't even make it to the quarterfinals!
Seriously, he's had enough of waiting year after year.
This time Real Madrid and Su Qin had a small conflict, and Su Qin's contract was about to expire.
How could he let such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip away in vain?
soon!
Mansour and Mancini waited for their guests.
Fat Raiola!
Not to mention, unlike during the previous World Cup, the world's top clubs were all dating Lao Mi!
Until now!
Until Su Qin's first game after recovering from injury.
Except for Manchester City, no giant club has even offered him a price worthy of Su Qin.
Raiola is not stupid!
He knew that these wealthy families who coveted Su Qin were waiting for Su Qin's debut after recovering from injury.
When facing the mortal enemy Spain, if Su Qin can exert basically 80% of his previous strength, then the giants will want to go crazy and start a battle for Su Qin.
He knows it all!
But he really couldn't help it.
After all, even Raiola himself is worried about Su Qin's kind of injury all day long.
He was afraid that his Su Qin would suddenly fall to the ground again at some point, if that happened one day!
Su Qin will also be completely labeled as a glass man.
"Haha, Raiola!"
"Oh, you are here too, Mr. Mansour, I thought it was just Robert!"
"Mino, you guy!"
finally!
After waiting for a long time.
The three met.
After a discussion, Raiola was also frightened by Manchester City's sincerity, which is the craziest in the world!
