Zhuo Yang returned to Spain and arrived in Barcelona in late June.
After winning the Copa del Rey final, the season was completely over, and Real Madrid officially took a vacation. The players went to their respective national teams one after another, and Zhuo Yang was no exception.
There is still the final round of the top ten Asian qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup. The Chinese team, which has won the first place in Group A in advance, will face Qatar, which has 7 points and has no hope of qualifying. In terms of strength comparison and situation, this is
A match without any doubts.
In the Bird's Nest, although forward Ilyas scored a goal in the 35th minute of the first half, Qatar led the Chinese team 1:0 and maintained this score until the 60th minute.
However, in the remaining half an hour, Qatar collapsed. In the 61st minute, Zhuo Yang shot from long range to equalize the score. After 90 minutes, the Chinese team defeated Qatar 5:1. Zhuo Yang scored a hat trick and the Chinese team won the top ten match.
It ended perfectly, with a total record of 5 wins and 3 draws, remaining unbeaten and accumulating 18 points.
Zhuo Yang had already greeted Chinese fans before the start of the top ten games: From now on, don’t ask whether you can enter the World Cup, just ask how you want to enjoy it after entering. Fans like to hear Zhuo Yang say big things, and he also said
Do it.
The South Korean team was a bit miserable. In the final home game against Iran, which had 11 points, they lost 0:1 to forward Reza Guchannejad, who plays for Standard Liege in the Belgian First Division.
Scored the only goal of the game.
As a result, Iran, which has accumulated 14 points, ranks second in the group and will directly qualify after the Chinese team. The South Korean team will have to wait until September to play two Asian playoffs with Jordan, third in Group B, to see the results. Group B will directly qualify.
The two teams are Japan and Australia.
After playing the last game against Qatar, the Chinese team waited for a friendly match against the Dutch national team. The Netherlands, led by captain Detu.
The Netherlands currently has six consecutive wins in Group D of the European World Cup qualifiers, and Romania, which is second in the group with two home and away wins, has almost no suspense about qualifying.
Detu is quite popular in China, even more popular than Xiaozhu. He and Zhuoyang are both brothers and teammates in the club. It is difficult for Chinese fans to love him or not.
However, the two captains have such a good personal relationship, but the game was unexpectedly very heated, and the Australian referee Chris Bays did not save face for the Chinese team at home.
In the first half, he gave the Dutch team a penalty kick. Zhang Linpeng tackled Robben in the penalty area. Unfortunately, Van Persie, who had the courage to come up and take the penalty kick, kicked it away.
In the top 16 of the 2010 World Cup, the Dutch failed to score five penalty kicks against the Chinese team. Penalty kicks have become their nightmare, and today they are just repeaters.
From then on, the actions of both sides gradually became more intense, and the scene was full of excitement. At the beginning of the second half, Qin Sheng, who was selected for the national team for the first time, showed his soles from the front and almost tackled De Guzman's leg, and was sent off by the Bess referee with a direct red card.
In the end, the Chinese team failed to avenge their elimination three years ago. The two sides drew 1:1, with goals scored by Sneijder and Zhuo Yang.
Next, Zhuo Yang took a leave of absence from the national team to busy himself with his own affairs. It was not all private matters. Zhuo Yang was now a deputy to the National People's Congress and a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. He had to report to his unit, familiarize himself with the leadership, and take a look at his recent work.
Do you have any proposals, especially those related to sports? These should be regarded as official matters.
When we return to Spain, it will be the end of June. Basically, the La Liga clubs will not close their teams until the end of July, and the same is true for Real Madrid. Zhuo Yang went directly to Barcelona and Bayin Hospital.
I came here because of the first La Rocha Piano Competition, and Zhuo Yang was a judge of the competition.
This competition was promoted by Zhuo Yang two years ago. The purpose is not only to commemorate Grandma La Rocha, but also to integrate the relatively depressed Spanish piano.
As a country of art, although Spanish piano is not ranked among the best in Europe, it still has its own piano competitions. For example, the Maria Canas International Piano Competition and the Capillo International Piano Competition, etc., especially the Maria Canas International Piano Competition and the Capillo International Piano Competition.
The Canas Competition has been held for sixty times and has a long history.
However, their popularity and influence are far from being comparable to those of the top ten international piano competitions. They are vastly different.
Grandma Alicia de la Rocha was a pianist, not a composer. She was the authoritative interpreter of the works of Spanish composers Granados, Albéniz, and Falla. She played the works of Mozart and Chopin.
Also very good. But Grandma La Rocha herself does not have a huge library of works to support a competition named after her.
The top ten international piano competitions all showcase the works of a certain composer. The Chopin Competition is about Chopin's works, the Tchaikovsky Competition is about playing Lao Chai's stuff, including the Schumann Competition that made Zhuo Yang famous.
.
This is what is lacking in the Spanish piano world. The aforementioned Granados, Albéniz, Falla and others are obviously still some distance away from Chopin, Lao Chai, Beethoven and Schumann.
Therefore, Spanish piano competitions play all kinds of music, the Maria Canas Competition likes to use Bach and Beethoven, and the Capillo Competition is even more diverse.
The La Rocha Competition will also follow the same path, but under Zhuo Yang's suggestion, there will still be a little difference.
In order to promote the native Spanish piano culture, the La Rocha Competition will only use works by Spanish composers as entries. One will be selected for each session, and the first La Rocha Competition will use the talented Spanish composer and pianist Isaac
Works by Albeniz Isaac.
Although Grandma La Rocha does not have many works of her own, she is an authority in performing the works of Spanish pianists, and it has always been Grandma's wish to promote Spanish native piano art.
Therefore, the official name of the La Rocha Competition is: Spanish Alicia de La Rocha Composer International Piano Competition.
The first competition will be held this year. The Spanish piano community strives to make it the first piano competition in Spain and a century-old event. The competition will be held every three years, and this time span is also very particular.
Too frequent is not enough. The Cannes and Capiro competitions are held once a year, so it is not uncommon to do them every year. But like the Chopin and Chassis competitions, which are held every four years, the span is a bit too long.
If it doesn’t have that influence, it will be left to cool down.
Therefore, it is most appropriate to hold it every three years, and it is also very unique. The competition will be open to pianists from all over the world, otherwise it would be called "international", and the age limit is under 35 years old.
As a promoter of the competition, Zhuo Yang naturally became a judge. As for whether he is qualified... What a joke, Zhuo Yang is now a special lifelong judge of the Chopin Competition and the Schumann Competition. He came to La Rocha Competition to be a judge.
Give in.
After more than two years of preparation, the process of the event was not difficult for Zhuo Yang, but what he did not expect was that one game would lead to an unexpected marriage.
Chapter completed!
