Because it was the first competition, Tang Ping did not sell tickets at all. Except for the two hundred VIP seats, all other seats were free.
His purpose is to make this sport popular first, at least to cultivate a group of fans first, so that he can sell tickets later.
Anyway, each team's usual training expenses, team uniforms, etc. are all covered by their respective sponsors. The most Tang Ping can do is contribute some money for venue maintenance.
Moreover, this stadium is opposite Shanghe Village. There is only one person watching the entire stadium now. After all, it is impossible to build such a high ladder stadium like the modern stadium.
But even if they are alone, they always have to eat and drink when they come here. The poor people probably just take the time to come and visit, and they bring their own food and drinks.
And those who bought VIP seats have to eat and drink, right?
In Shanghe Village, just the catering expenses sold to VIP seats are enough to maintain the venue.
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he did not leave, but stayed to watch the first football match.
After all, one of the teams belongs to Li Yuanji, and the other belongs to Fusang. It is a battle that concerns the honor of Datang!
Lao Cui and Lao Du came on the court enthusiastically. They were not players, but referees.
The two people who initially dismissed Cuju, after seeing the rules of modern football, did not escape the law of true fragrance.
However, although the two of them were in good physical condition, they did not have any experience or skills, so they could not make any money by playing football. In the end, Tang Ping asked one of them to be the main referee and the other to be the fourth referee.
Li Shimin also hired two chamberlains from the palace as line judges to ensure the fairness of the game.
Although this is the first official competition, everyone was fully aware of the rules during the selection and have been training according to the rules in private for a while, so there is no need to say more.
Lao Cui took a copper plate and directly asked Li Yuanji, the captain, and the captain of the Fuso team to guess heads or tails.
In the end, it was the Fuso team that kicked off first.
"Come on!" Li Yuanji shouted, and the players from Zhao Wangfu dispersed. He secretly went to Tang Ping to pick up a lot of modern football players.

tactics.
Although each team now knows that team members are divided into forwards, midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers, they are definitely not as thorough as Li Yuanji understands.
After the Fuso team kicked off, they pressed forward from all fronts, but the ball was accidentally intercepted by a player from Zhao Wangfu.
The player didn't pass the ball and just rushed in from the sideline with his head down.
Those Fuso players saw the ball being snatched away, and they chased after the man.
But what they don't know is that this player is the fastest running person selected by Li Yuanji. He usually only dribbles and passes the ball.
So even though several Fuso players surrounded him, they still did not block his path.
When he was about to reach the bottom line, he made a cross and passed the ball towards Li Yuanji.
It can be said that he played a very beautiful bottom passing tactic.
But just when Li Yuanji immediately received the ball, the whistle sounded.
Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment, and then saw Lao Cui making an offside gesture towards him.
Only then did he have time to look at the positions of Fuso's defenders.
And in front of him was the captain of the Fuso team, the Cuju master Nakamura who was based in Chang'an.
Nakamura chuckled and took the ball from Li Yuanji. They had studied all the rules carefully, so when they noticed that during the trials in Zhao Wangfu, there was a very fast sideline player, they came up with this idea. trick.
Being tricked, Li Yuanji glared at Nakamura and said nothing, but his anger grew.
The duel between the two teams behind was extremely exciting and intense. No one in Datang had ever seen such a confrontational game.
In terms of elegance, this is definitely not as elegant as the past Cuju competitions where everyone shot each other, but in terms of excitement, this is definitely countless times more exciting than in the past.
"Hey, the third child here can obviously build a plank road to infiltrate Chen Cang, but he has to confront the opponent head-on."
"Yes, if King Zhao had just attracted the enemy's main force to the left, and then suddenly passed the ball to attack from the right, the victory would have been determined."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"I think there is nothing wrong with King Zhao's decision. You see, our army's physical strength is obviously better than that of the enemy. Although King Zhao chose to fight directly, it was a huge drain on the physical strength of both sides, and I When our military strength is superior, as long as we have this confrontation a few more times, the enemy will be defeated by us."
Tang Ping sat next to Li Shimin, listening to the comments made by Li Shimin and Li Jing, and felt that he had gone to the wrong place.
This is obviously a football match, why are you seeing two armies facing off? Fortunately, there is no Fuso envoy sitting next to you. Otherwise, I would not know what to think if I heard you refer to their team as the enemy.
"Tang Ping, this is a good game. The stadium is like a battlefield, and you can see that the players are very focused on teamwork. I think it can be promoted in the military."
While commenting, Li Shimin did not forget to praise Tang Ping.
"What my second uncle said is that it can indeed be promoted in the military. Normally, everyone has nothing to do in the military, and there is no need for such a professional venue. It is good to just kick each other and play. It can not only strengthen the body, but also cultivate everyone's tacit understanding."
"Okay!" At this moment, a player from Zhao Wangfu kicked the door frame, and the bounced football was shot into the net by Li Yuanji with an upside-down golden hook.
Some of the audience may not fully understand the sport of football, but when they saw their own King Zhao breaking through the Fuso team's goal, they all began to cheer enthusiastically.
Li Yuanji also imitated the game he watched in Hyundai at that time. After the player won, he slid to his knees and blew a kiss to the sidelines.
"This kid!" Li Shimin smiled bitterly, why did the majestic King Zhao kneel down, but he didn't say anything when he saw the cheers of the audience.
Besides, even if it had to be managed, it would be the Zongzheng Temple under the control of eldest brother Li Jiancheng.
In the end, the Zhao Wangfu Xihe Restaurant team led by Li Yuanji physically defeated the Fuso team and won four to one.
And this game was also known to everyone around Chang'an by the audience present.
Football began to slowly become popular near Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.
