Seven Crowns

Chapter 68 Advance to the top 16

Lu Wenbin was not complacent because of the praise on TV, nor was he indignant because of some netizens’ questioning and scolding.

He understands his goal: not to win the championship, not to get the signing of the European club, everything is empty talk.

Others can slowly start from the domestic league, but he is already 17 years old. Some players have played in the top European leagues at the age of 16. He can’t afford to delay, and doesn’t want to waste time along the upgrade route like the second-tier European league, the second-tier league, the second-tier European league.

It is the best career development path to win the championship, get it in one step, and sign a contract to play in Europe.

Meijiang Middle School currently seems to have no problem qualifying in the group, which is gratifying, but there will be a knockout round later, the team will be stronger and the difficulty of promotion will become higher and higher.

Thinking of the challenges he is about to face, Lu Wenbin dare not get carried away.

Fortunately, after so many exercises in regular competitions, coupled with the intentional physical training of the coaches and team doctors, the overall strength of Meijiang Middle School is no longer what it used to be.

At present, Meijiang Middle School, even if there is no Lu Wenbin, you can go to fight against a team like Moutai Children’s School.

Coupled with Lu Wenbin’s personal strength, winning the championship is not really hopeless.

There are Danish fairy tales and Greek myths in the European Cup. The Chinese high school students’ league may not fail to produce the dark horse miracle belonging to Meijiang Middle School.

After the second round of the group stage, all the teams rested for another day, and then started the third round of the group stage on August 15th.

On the morning of August 15, the first match of the third round of Group G was Meijiang Middle School VS Xining No. 1 Middle School.

In this game, Zhang Minghai changed several main players. In addition to Lu Wenbin, only Xiang Youming remained in the frontcourt, and both Han Dapeng and Nie Yingkun were replaced.

Two substitutes were also placed on the defensive line, allowing the main guard to take a break.

The average density of one game in the group stage is two days, which is physically exhausting for these non-professional high school students.

After achieving two consecutive victories in the first two games, Meijiang Middle School has actually qualified ahead of schedule and almost locked in the group’s first place.

In the last game, unless Meijiang Middle School loses by a big score, and there is another game with a big score, a team with a goal difference of more than Meijiang Middle School can win the match. Take the first place in the group at Meijiang Middle School.

If Meijiang Middle School can get a tie, it will be locked to the top of the group with 7 points. No matter what the Datong Middle School and Baotou No. 1 Middle School are tied, they will not be able to threaten their ranking.

Therefore, in the last game, Zhang Minghai deliberately chose some substitute lineups to let the main lineup take a certain rest.

The result of the semi-main and semi-substitute lineup is that Meijiang Middle School played harder in the last game.

Although Xining No. 1 Middle School has already left the game early, they obviously don’t want to return home with zero points in all three games. In the last match against Meijiang Middle School, which had already qualified ahead of schedule, they still hoped to win a victory and retain a little dignity.

In addition, Meijiang Middle School did not go to the full main force, but replaced some substitutes. It gave Xining a high school hope, the morale was high, and he played hard.

However, even so, as Meijiang Middle School became more proficient and coordinated with the bus tactics, Qinghai Xining No. 1 Middle School still failed to score a goal.

Instead, it was Lu Wenbin, who scored two goals through two quick personal heroism counterattacks and also scored a corner kick to help Meijiang Middle School defeat Qinghai Xining No. 1 Middle School by a score of 3-0.

One of the counterattacks was a long shot from outside the penalty area. Lu Wenbin’s sudden long shot after swinging from outside the penalty area became more and more threatening.

The process is very hard, and the result is very gratifying.

While Lu Wenbin helped Meijiang Middle School beat his opponent 3-0, he also increased the number of individual goals to 9 goals, and stood out in this national finals.

Meijiang Middle School won three games in the group stage and ranked first in Group G with 9 points. It will occupy a more favorable position in the next 16 rounds.

In this game, three goals plus a win, Lu Wenbin gained 200 experience points, and his personal level experience rose to level 6 692/1000.

In the afternoon, in the competition between Shanghai Datong Middle School and Inner Mongolia Baotou No. 1 Middle School for the second qualifying group, Datong Middle School finally got a better performance, with Gu Zhengpeng’s outbreak and another player’s goal, defeating Inner Mongolia 3-1 Steel One.

Gu Zhengpeng scored two goals and scored twice.

Datong Middle School finally qualified second in the group and became the team with the poorest group stage performance among the 8 seeded teams.

Of course, they are not the worst.

The most unlucky is the Wuhan 12th Middle School in Hubei. They are divided into a group with Yanbian No. 1 Middle School in Jilin Province and No. 7 Middle School in Chongqing City, which are not a seeded team but are very powerful, making that group a dead group.

As a result, in this death group, Wuhan No. 12 Middle School was unfortunately ranked third because of a goal difference, and was eliminated, becoming the only seeded team that failed to qualify in the group stage.

After the end of the afternoon game, all the group matches are over, and the top 16 teams are formed. The 1/8 finals will start after a two-day break, giving the promoted teams a two-day break.

The Tianjin News in the evening naturally broadcasted the top 16 list of the high school league national finals after the group stage and advanced to the knockout round. UU reading www. uukanshu. Com also focused on the teams and players that performed well in the group stage.

Among them, Lu Wenbin, as the most outstanding individual player, received a considerable amount of coverage, almost the same treatment as the host Tianjin 54th Middle School.

The performance of 9 goals in three games surprised countless people.

In the past national finals, even the top scorer who reached the final and played 7 games rarely scored more than 9 goals. Lu Wenbin completed it in the group stage.

You have to know that this is the national finals. The average performance of three goals per game is more than half more than the 4 goals scored by the second-ranked scorer. It is simply too abnormal.

The scouts who watched Lu Wenbin’s game started to report to their club, and Claire did the same.

That evening, Claire had a regular phone call with the owner Dietmar Huo, who was already traveling in Shandong, and reported the results of her tracking of Lu Wenbin’s next two group matches.

Hearing that Lu Wenbin performed two consecutive braces and hat tricks in the next two games, and the total number of personal goals reached 9 goals, Hope was also surprised.

Even if this is just a high school league, at Lu Wenbin’s age, such strength and scoring efficiency are already amazing enough.

In addition to the most critical scoring ability, Claire also reported to Hope that she had observed Lu Wenbin’s physique, speed, dribbling, shooting, running without the ball and other qualities and abilities.

Although she can’t perform digitization like a system, but she can judge it with experience.

After listening, Hope decided to return to Tianjin to see Lu Wenbin’s knockout performance in person.
