On October 1st, National Day, the opening ceremony of the 2021 "National Day Cup" U35+ football competition was held in Jinan Enyu Football Training Base. Subsequently, six teams fought each other, and the Jinan Old Boys Football Team and the Shandong University Liqun Sunshine Football Team played an opening match.
In the opening match, the Jinan Old Boys Football Team lost 0:3 to the Shandong University Liqun Sunshine Football Team. In the two matches that followed, Jinan Dikou National Football Team defeated the National Football Team of The National Heavy Duty Truck Union 6:1, and the Jinan Baoshan Football Team lost 2:9 to Shandong Guanggu Medical Football Team.
The competition was guided by the Jinan Tianqiao District Education and Sports Bureau and the Jinan Football Sports Management Center, hosted by the Jinan Tianqiao District Football Sports Association, and hosted by the 2021 "National Day Cup" U35+ Football Competition Organizing Committee.
Football was once the dream of every young man dressed in fresh clothes. Under the dual constraints of age and life pressure, playing football has become a luxury activity for every "old cannon". Give the old cannon an exclusive stage and pay tribute to the youth of the past with football - this is the meaning of the "U35+" football match.
Although with the increase of age, the physical reserves of the "old cannons" are no longer as good as their youth, but the game process is still not lacking in wonderful scrambling and fierce confrontation. Pedaling bicycles, croquettes, dragons running... These actions, which have long been melted into their blood, are frequently staged, causing the audience and the members of the bench to shout wonderfully.
Gao Shuqun, head coach of the U18 group of the Shanxi National Games, took advantage of his "spare" time to participate in the event on behalf of the Shandong University team. Here, he not only returned from the coaching bench to the green field, but also reunited with many old friends for a long time.
"To be honest, we're playing with young people now and we can't play anymore." The 35+' age group is set up very well. Our old friends just got together, kicked the ball together for dinner, and exchanged feelings. I hope to organize as many such competitions as possible, thanks to the organizing committee. Gao Shuqun said.
After retiring, Miao Weijian also regained his former passion on the football field. Miao Weijian is the coach of the Yuanshan University football team and the coach of the football team of Gao Shuqun University for four years. Returning to the managerial seat, he said: "We old mountain people get together, and it is very good to play and play football together during the holidays. They usually work very intensely, and when it comes to the holidays, they can take a good rest and adjust their mentality through football. ”
This year's "U35+" football tournament has a total of six teams participating, namely Jinan Old Boys, Heavy Duty Truck Alliance, Shanda Liqun Sunshine, Jigang, Shandong Guanggu, and Jinan Dikou National Team.
It is understood that most of the players of the participating teams have had professional or professional backgrounds, and some players and coaches have also had experience in the Chinese Super League, the Chinese First Division and other professional football leagues. Some of these "old guns" work or settle in Jinan. It is football, so that these old friends are not far away, thousands of miles, reunited.
According to the schedule, the competition will be held for 5 rounds, and the final ranking will be determined in the form of a points race. The next round will kick off on October 6.
