Far from the World Cup in Qatar, recent domestic soccer matches have also caused heated discussions in fan circles Beijing Guoan, a veteran Chinese Super League powerhouse, was beaten 2-2 in regulation time by an amateur team from Jingchuan County in Gansu Province, forcing them to go to a penalty shootout. In the end, Beijing Guoan lost the FA Cup round of 32 5-7.
Gansu Zhongguancun FC was officially established only one year and three months ago. in early August 2021, the club registered in the name of Jingchuan Wenhui Football Club in Jingchuan County Civil Affairs Bureau and officially participated in the Zhongguancun League organized by the CFA.
What's happening behind the scenes with the CFL teams? What did they do to prepare? With these key questions, the top news reporter interviewed Yao Jun, the captain of Jingchuan Wenhui team "Classic Battle" Yao leader had an in-depth conversation with the reporter about the story behind.
"There was some mental guidance before the game and the tactical play was very determined"
Top News: Gansu Jingchuan became known to the world after this wonderful knockout victory. After the draw against Guoan, did you make any special preparations for this match?
Yao Jun: painting this game, we feel very happy and excited, after all, the Super League powerhouse, but sports is like this, we must want to win, and may also prepare for a long time, after all, others are more complete structure, and more mature, but we may have some situations, such as: will be stage fright, can let go? Did some mental coaching but also built some confidence with the team members and we did more work.
In fact, we were very determined in our strategic play and that was to fight behind them. We knew they were going to press us, but we were going to beat them, so you could see in the game that our counter-attacks were of a very high quality and we had a lot of chances.
"Private and professional soccer cannot be taken seriously."
Top News: Some netizens say that the victory means that private soccer can become a "mine of power" for Chinese soccer. What do you think is the key to playing private soccer well? What are the next goals and plans for our club?
Yao Jun:Internet orientation is actually a misunderstanding, folk soccer is "play", is happy, is everyone together exercise, physical fitness, but professional soccer will have some achievement requirements, which (folk and professional soccer) can not be the same thing, but now the Internet direction is wrong, so simple, how can you take your hobby to challenge the professional, so we are professional players are the same. challenge the profession, so we are professional players, it's the same. Not like what the internet says.
As for the development, I think it is to let more people participate in, participate in say don't always think that we are in the future when the star, you are a hobby, usually some friends can also be booked, kicking the ball to exercise, play ball chatting after, this is a state of life, this state is a healthy state.
"I used to lead the team in Xinyang and there was a lot of pressure, but we withstood it."
In the interview, Yao Jun also talked about himself and Henan "fate".
Yao Jun 2015 to 2017, I was in Henan, Xinyang team, at that time also particularly difficult, because the local foundation is poor, the requirements said that as long as the top eight each year, I said no, my leadership asked me, what do you want, I said I want to be in the top three, and I think that the efforts can be resolved, and I entered the top three each year, those years, there will always be a top three in Xinyang.
It was hard then too, really hard, but every year they played hard. These players practiced hard, practiced longer than anyone else. And then the kids pull their conditioning every day, very early in the morning, but you have to give it like that to get results.
Jingchuan Wenhui's performance in the FA Cup has attracted the attention of soccer fans nationwide, but in the long river of Chinese soccer, it is just a "wave". The common wish of the fans is to cultivate and stimulate the power of amateur soccer and make greater contributions to Chinese soccer.
