Swedish Mialbi FC fancy officially announced the arrival of Efelding. (00:49)
In the early morning of the 4th, Beijing time, in the first round of the new Swedish Super League season, Mialbi, who had just loaned Chinese player Eiffelding, drew 2-2 at home with Varberg.
Eiffelding was not included in the squad just a few days after his arrival, but said: "I'm looking forward to the atmosphere, especially at home. The little goal I set for myself now is to try to get out early and perform well. ”
Eiffelding represents young Chinese players.
The outstanding performance of the Asian Youth Championship attracted the attention of the Swiss Super League
In the previous U20 Asian Cup, Eiffelding had an excellent performance as the captain of the Chinese team, "Through that competition, I really got a lot of growth and maturity, especially in terms of psychological quality, which helped me a lot." Eiffelding said.
In addition, another great value of the Intercontinental Competition is that he calls it "broadening his horizons".
"There are a lot of good teams in the U20 Asian Cup, and there are a lot of good players, such as Japan, South Korea and Uzbekistan, which really benefited me."
Of course, many Chinese fans have the most impressive moment with Eiffelding, but he led the team to the quarterfinals, and fought South Korea for a while.
Eiffelding's trip to Sweden this time is full of a sense of ease, "There is no pressure, on the contrary, I am relaxed, just a learner's mentality, let myself give it a try." ”
Eiffelding is the captain of the national youth team.
In terms of the growth of a player, the biggest gain from the U20 Asian Cup is that he has learned to shoulder heavy responsibilities and learn how to take responsibility, so when talking about gains, he will first point out "mental maturity".
Shao Jiayi, the leader of the U20 national team, believes that "Eiffelding has strong individual ability and one-on-one advantages, which is beyond doubt. But since becoming the captain of the national youth team, in addition to his own performance, his performance has played a good leading role. ”
"In other words, this captain's armband, giving him more responsibility."
So in Tashkent, we see Eiffeldin fall again and again, but get up again and again - Shao Jiayi's admiration for Eiffelding is overflowing, "He never gave up, from the first minute to the 90th minute, he was always fighting strongly, which really shows the role that a captain should play on the pitch." ”
Shao Jiayi, who also has rich experience in studying abroad, said, "Only if you succeed, you can continue to increase your self-confidence, if you are always losing, your self-confidence cannot be much, or it may be untrue." ”
Eiffelding and Shao Jiayi hugged.
To stay in the ocean, you must have a purpose
After the U20 Asian Cup, Eiffelding returned to Guangzhou to rest for a few days, and then came to Zagreb to meet with Cheng Yaodong's national Olympic team, but unexpectedly, within a few days he received an invitation from the Swiss Super League team, and finally chose to stay in the ocean.
Mialbi, a small town in Selworthsburg, a municipality in the province of Brekinge in southern Sweden, is said to have a permanent population of less than 1,000 people.
Just getting there was enough for Eiffelding to make a lot of twists and turns, "First you have to fly to Copenhagen, then drive there, if you fly to Stockholm first and then take a car, you have to drive an hour and a half..."
His concept of Nordic football was vague at first, but when the invitation from Swedish Premier League side Mijalbi was actually presented to him, Eiffelding was willing to take the step.
"I just really want to give it a try and see what kind of level I can play. After all, this is the first division in Sweden, and I am still looking forward to it. ”
Eiffelding stayed in the ocean this time like a soldier. On March 28, it was signed, and the next day it was officially announced, and he set off for the north on March 30. Soon, he met his new teammates.
"It feels like they're all better physically than me," was his first impression of Miarbi's first team, "but I think I have my characteristics too. ”
Quick, this is the deepest impression that many people have of Eiffelding, and in the opinion of Mialbi data analyst Lindmark Eriksson, "Eiffelding has excellent dribbling breakthrough ability and is good at stealing, and players who can combine these two abilities are rare now." ”
As for Liuyang, Eiffelding also expressed his own stubbornness.
"My previous thinking is still to make every step more solid and secure, and I can't rush it." Outside the court, this cheerful teenager has a clear positioning for himself.
"I don't want to go out as a sparring partner, or I don't want to stay in the ocean in an active way when other teams don't know me well enough."
In this regard, he and Shao Jiayi have had many heart-to-heart conversations. 'As a team manager, I've always encouraged them to go out and play, and I've told them what the value of playing abroad is.
"From the level of the Chinese Football Association, it will definitely do its best to create conditions to support them to stay in the ocean in many aspects, whether it is from the policy or other aspects."
"I also hope that among them, there are some players who can surpass me in the future. To stay in the ocean, you must have a purpose. ”
Strive for an early appearance
After arriving in Sweden, Eiffelding said he often thought of Shao Jiayi's advice.
"I remember him saying, 'Whether you play or not, you have to keep a serious training attitude every day, as long as you have a good training attitude and good performances, the coach will definitely give you a chance, because this side of Europe is very pure football'."
Of course, Mialbi's long-term follow-up observation of him also made Eiffelding's heart move.
"They know me a little bit, no matter how they use it in the future, if they know me to a certain extent, after careful consideration, I think I can give it a try."
In Shao Jiayi's view, from the Chinese Super League to the Swedish Super League, this is a very transitional attempt, "I think the Swedish Super League is a springboard for him, as his first stop in Europe, which is very suitable." ”
When he arrives in a strange town, Eiffelding will feel a little lonely, but these cannot stop his determination.
"I treated this stay in the ocean as a study. It is not only to strive to play in the game, but also not to completely deny yourself, and to fight with the mentality of learning. ”
And when it comes to communication, he's trying to fit in as quickly as he can — for example, on the first day he meets some staff and tries to communicate in English.
Eiffelding only completed his first first-team training on April 1, which coincidentally coincided with Miarbi's 84th anniversary, and said, "I'm looking forward to the atmosphere, especially at home, and the little goal I have set for myself now is to try to play early and perform well." ”
