How does a country
produce champion footbalt
players? The Chinese think
they know the answer.
In a small village called Juquitiba
near Sao Paulo in Brazil. twenty-
two Chinese teenagers are
playing football on a rough
football pitch .
They are the top tee nage
football players in the whole of
China . One day they are going to
be world champions. The
teenagers are on a five-year
programme of training with a
Brazilian football coach, Ecio
Pasca. They start at six o'clock
in the morning because it's so ho t
later in the day, and they play,
practise and study football for
eight hours a day, six days a
week.
They can only go back home to
C hina for o ne short trip to see
their fam ilies. In their free time in
the evening, they watch Chinese
video tapes on an o ld video. The
team captain, Li Tie, says, ' It is
sometimes very hard here. I miss
my family terribly, but I want to
be successful .'
Patricia Otavio has a small cafe
in Juquitiba. 'Everybody here
likes t he Chinese footballe rs.
They can't speak Portuguese, but
they are ver y popular.' Local
people like watching the boys
play because, as a villager says,
' No Brazilian wants to miss a
football game.'
But w hy a re t hese C hinese
boys training in Brazil? The
a nswer is simple. C hina hasn't
got a tradition of playing football .
Brazil has. W ith Brazil's help, the
Chinese government is sure that
it is going to produce a w inning
Chinese football team.
