Originally, Xue Yang planned to start winter training on January 1. This time, Xue Yang will lead Tianjin Wei to Germany for winter training.
So we gathered a few days earlier. After all, the holiday starts at the beginning of November, and nearly 2 months of vacation is enough.
Then Xue Yang flew the players to Germany, and this time he brought a lot of players.
This time, in addition to the first team friendly matches, there are also U19 friendly matches.
The youth team games will not be coached by Xue Yang, but by Yin Yadong, the head coach of the reserve team.
As for the four foreign players, they did not come to China because they all returned to their home countries during the holidays.
So this time they went directly to Germany for winter training, and everyone gathered together.
This winter training Tianjin guards will play friendly matches with several German teams. The Bundesliga has not had any games since December 20.
The Bundesliga will enter a period of offseason and will not restart until mid-to-late January.
Through negotiation, Tianjin Wei will have its first friendly match on January 4, and the opponent is the German second division team Paderborn.
Then challenge Werder Bremen on January 9, and finally challenge Leverkusen on January 15.
Leverkusen has performed well this season and is currently ranked third in the Bundesliga standings.
Among them, Jiang Bin's contribution is very big. He is already Leverkusen's most important offensive point.
Such a team is willing to play a friendly match with Tianjin Wei, which is partly due to Jiang Bin's contribution.
Because of Jiang Bin's presence, Leverkusen's fans in China have grown stronger.
Of course they are willing to establish a deeper friendship with China Football.
After playing three friendly matches, Xue Yang plans to stay in Germany for a few more days.
Take all the players live to watch Leverkusen's Bundesliga match against Freiburg on January 25th.
This is a rare opportunity for the players to take a look at the football atmosphere in Germany.
Soon the plan for Tianjin Wei's trip to Germany was announced, which surprised many Chinese fans.
It’s not that there are no Chinese Super League teams that go abroad for winter training to play friendly matches, but there is no team like Tianjin Wei.
He actually played against two Bundesliga teams. Other teams would go to Japan and South Korea more often.
In Xue Yang's memory, Tianjin TEDA seemed to have gone to South Korea to play a friendly match with an amateur team, but ended up losing.
Later, he was ridiculed by the fans, but Tianjin Wei actually wanted to play a friendly match with the German Bundesliga team.
After Tianjin Weiyuan's plan to go to Germany was made public, many netizens expressed their opinions on the Internet.
“You won the Chinese Super League championship and you don’t know who you are anymore!”
"Why are you going to Germany? Looking for abuse!"
"Upstairs! No matter whether Tianjin Wei loses or wins this time, at least we have the courage! Does your team have the courage?"
"When Jiang Bin comes out, you are so confused! You don't know what your level is? It can be considered a strong team in the Chinese Super League, but it's bullshit in the Bundesliga!"
Except for Tianjin Wei fans, everyone is generally not optimistic about Tianjin Wei's plan.
The level of the Chinese Super League is well known. Even if Tianjin Wei won the Chinese Super League championship, it is still far behind the Bundesliga teams.
So they thought why they played such a friendly match even though they knew they would lose.
Of course, not everyone sees it this way. Some netizens feel that even if it is a must-lose game, it is a rare opportunity to play against a higher-level team.
And in addition to the two Bundesliga teams, the other Bundesliga team is not bad either.
Currently ranked second in Bundesliga 2, it is also a team with near-Bundesliga strength.
In the 2013 Club World Cup, Guangzhou Evergrande and Bayern Munich met.
In the end, Guangzhou Evergrande lost to Bayern Munich 0-3. The gap was really too big.
However, even so, Bayern Munich has already let a lot of water go.
Xue Yang didn't pay much attention to outside voices.
He attaches great importance to this trip to Germany. It is indeed a rare opportunity to play against these three teams.
And Tianjin Wei will not necessarily lose, there are also several outstanding players in the Tianjin Wei team.
Come January 2014, the training last month has also come to an end.
Center back Fei Xuan was improved to 62 points, and center back Shen Yi was improved to 68 points.
Right back Wu Qi has been improved to 61 points, and center back Li Mingguang has been improved to 67 points.
Right back Yu Chuan has been improved to 67 points, and right back Qin Dabao has been improved to 70 points.
Left back Lu Tingwen has been improved to 67 points, and defensive midfielder Pu Ye has been improved to 52 points.
Goalkeeper Ge Deshan has been improved to 61 points, and goalkeeper Wang Zixuan has been improved to 60 points.
Finally, there is goalkeeper Zhuang Zhongtong, whose ability has been improved to 66 points.
The next step is to plan the training for January. Of course, I still use the triple training card.
The first training chose the "race against time" project, choosing Qin Zhen, Shi Li, Lou Shouyun, Gong Shaowei, Zhou Zheng, Fu Yunhong, Jin Qiang, Sun Dejiang, Cui Yidong, Yin Fan, Yan Peng, Wu Qi and Deng Yanglin .
The second training selected the "Advanced Offensive Scenario" project, choosing Qin Zhen, Shi Li, Lou Shouyun, Gong Shaowei, Zhou Zheng, Fu Yunhong, Cui Yidong, Yin Fan, Yan Peng and Deng Yanglin.
The last training was the "Accurate Crossing" project, and Qin Zhen, Lou Shouyun, Fu Yunhong, Jin Qiang, Sun Dejiang, Yan Peng, Wu Qi and Deng Yanglin were selected.
After coming to Germany, all the players in Tianjin Wei were very excited.
They are full of curiosity about everything, that is, a few foreign players are relatively stable.
Their experience is there, and some of them have played in Europe.
The training camp started after arriving in Germany. The players had just arrived in the new environment and were somewhat uncomfortable adapting, whether it was because of the climate or the time difference.
The first friendly match came soon, and the players were a little nervous.
After all, this is the first time to play against a German second division team. Of course, some of them are more motivated to fight. They want to see the gap between themselves and the opponent.
Xue Yang looked at the opponent's starting lineup and found that basically none of the players he knew.
Xue Yang only knows one player, and he is midfielder Diego Deme.
In the future, he joined Red Bull Leipzig and Naples respectively, and is considered a capable midfielder.
But he is not very good, and the current Diego Deme has not grown up yet.
So overall, Paderborn's strength is average and does not meet Xue Yang's expectations.
On the other hand, Tianjin Wei did not face the battle with all their main forces, but they were still strong.
Moreover, many players were changed in the first and second half, but even so, Tianjin Wei still won.
In the end, Tianjin Wei defeated Paderborn 2-1. Although the score difference seemed not big, Tianjin Wei had the advantage throughout the game.
After all, the abilities of Tianjin Wei players are basically above 70 points, and Paderborn is indeed not as good as Tianjin Wei.
Soon the news spread back to China, and some trolls started to ridicule after seeing the score.
"Chinese Super League champion = German second division team!"
For Tianjin Wei fans, they are quite happy.
Fans were worried before, worried that Tianjin Wei would return home after losing three games in a row, but now they have won at least one game.
