Fox in the Penalty Area

Hu Lai, Wang Guangwei, Chen Xingyi, and Xia Xiaoyu were chatting in the dormitory room. After a day of training, from after dinner to before going to bed, it was completely free time for the players.

Except not being able to leave the training base, you can do anything.

The training base is big enough. If you don’t want to be locked up in the dormitory all day, you can also go for a walk in the training base by yourself.

However, after a day of training, many people still choose to use the evening time to go to the physiotherapy group in the team to massage their bodies to relax their bodies, so that they can face the next day's challenge in a good physical condition. train.

So much so that the team's physical therapists are the busiest group of people, and their physical therapists often have to open the door until eleven o'clock in the evening to close the booth.

Before the World Cup roster came out, everyone had a string in their hearts, and they had to work hard to stay in the World Cup roster after the training camp.

Zhang Qinghuan, who just went out to answer the phone, came back from the outside, then he scanned the audience, and finally his eyes stayed on Hu Lai's face.

"Brother Huan, why are you looking at me like that? It's so creepy..." Hu Lai noticed Zhang Qinghuan's eyes.

"Whose phone is it?" Chen Xingyi asked curiously.

"Uncle Yong is calling." Zhang Qinghuan looked away, "He told me that Flash Star has finalized a transfer agreement with Sarria Club."

The four people in the room first looked at each other in dismay, and then exclaimed at the same time:

"Congratulations!"

"Congratulations, Brother Huan!"

"Brother Huan is awesome!"

"Awesome Glass!"

They already knew about Brother Huan's going abroad to study abroad, but they didn't expect it to advance so quickly.

"This is not normal..." Hu Lai frowned, "With Manager Dong's behavior, he wouldn't be able to agree so quickly if he didn't peel off a layer of skin from Sarria's body back and forth?"

Zhang Qing said with a smile, "Uncle Yong told me that Flash Star is asking for 3.5 million euros."

The people in the room gasped: "Manager Dong's account has been hacked?!"

"Only three and a half million?!"

Zhang Qinghuan waited for them to finish booing and continued, "Uncle Yong told me,

Flash Star is indeed very supportive of my study abroad this time, and they didn't ask for more on the transfer fee...but they kept the second transfer split clause, which is about 30%. "

"No wonder, 30% is not a lot. When I went to Leeds, Shining Star only wanted 20% of the second transfer fee..." Hu Lai said.

"Anyway, it's a good thing to be able to go out." Wang Guangwei asked, "When will the official announcement be made?"

Zhang Qinghuan shook his head: "I asked them to wait for us to finish the World Cup before announcing it. Now I don't want this to affect everyone's preparations."

"That's true. At this juncture, everyone definitely doesn't want to be distracted." Wang Guangwei nodded, feeling that Brother Huan was thoughtful.

"Ah, it's really enviable, brother Huan can go abroad to play football!" Chen Xingyi yelled.

"Aren't you fast too?" Zhang Qinghuan asked curiously.

"Brother Huan, this is a finalized matter, I haven't written my horoscope yet." Chen Xingyi curled his lips. "It's just that there are a few teams watching me, and they also have to look at my performance in the World Cup to make a decision. And if I don't perform well, won't I be able to get out?"

"You are all here in Versailles, look at Lao Wang! That's why I really don't know when I can go abroad to play football." Hu Lai pointed to Wang Guangwei.

"Damn it!" Wang Guangwei didn't expect to get burned while watching the play, he raised his middle finger to Hu Lai in protest.

Chen Xingyi: "Old Wang doesn't cry, and Xiaoyu is with you in Xingxing!"

Xia Xiaoyu, who had been silent all this time, heard this, and subconsciously wanted to find the emoticon of covering his face and crying in his mobile phone, only to find that they were not chatting in the group, but face to face, and couldn't send emoticons. He quickly spread his hands: "I haven't thought about it that much, I'm not even sure whether I can go to the World Cup."

When he said this, everyone fell silent. This is indeed a difficult thing to say.

Although Xia Xiaoyu was selected for the training list, he and Zhou Zijing were not the only ones selected for the training list, there were also some young people. After coming here, everyone can see that although Director Shi has recruited young people like Xia Xiaoyu and Zhou Zijing who were selected for the national team for the first time, his main inspection target is actually the original national football team.

Whether it is training or warm-up matches, you can feel this point - Director Shi did not take advantage of this precious last training opportunity to let everyone run-in the team from scratch and adjust tactics. This training camp is more about allowing players to enter the rhythm of the national team from the rhythm of the league and find the feeling of playing in the national team.

As for Xia Xiaoyu and Zhou Zijing, they seemed to come to feel the atmosphere.

Although the final roster has not yet been determined, everyone can guess in advance who can be selected for the 23-man roster.

For example, young players like Hu Lai, Zhang Qinghuan, Wang Guangwei, Chen Xingyi, and Luo Kai are 100% on the 23-man list. Whether they are in the club or the national team, they are the main players. Without them, how can the World Cup be played?

Captain Yao Huasheng, old goalkeeper Hao De, forward Gao Chen, and midfielder Lou Jiarong are also the mainstays of this team. The probability of them losing the national team is not high.

After all the calculations, how many places are left?

Could it really be the turn of pure newcomers like Xia Xiaoyu and the others?

After all, it is the World Cup, not a warm-up match for training newcomers.

Wang Guangwei comforted Xia Xiaoyu: "I think it is still possible, Xiaoyu. Our director Shi is known to love young people... You also performed well during the training camp, why can't you go?"

Xia Xiaoyu smiled: "It's okay, Brother Wang. I don't think so much. Anyway, if I am asked to train, I will train hard. I regard this as a good opportunity to exercise. Being able to come to the national team to train with everyone and improve myself, For me, there must be only advantages and no disadvantages."

"Hey, you're right if you have this idea." Hu Lai patted Xia Xiaoyu on the shoulder, "Think of it as gaining experience from fighting monsters. If you fight too many monsters, you will level up when you gain experience. After leveling up, you can get everything—new equipment , New dungeon... still worried about not having the World Cup in the future? Let me tell you, Xiaoyu, we will definitely be able to participate in the World Cup every time in the future!"

Xia Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes!"

He believed that Hu Lai was not comforting him, but telling the truth.

※※※

The fact that Anton Shining Star and Barcelona Sarria Club reached an agreement on the transfer of Zhang Qinghuan did not leak the slightest word.

The confidentiality work of the two clubs is still in place.

The media didn't know that Zhang Qinghuan had decided to go abroad to play football after the World Cup. Now everyone's focus was still on the World Cup training camp, or who the 23 lucky people who could represent China in the World Cup were.

On June 2, the Chinese team ushered in the last warm-up match opponent - Columbia in Jincheng.

Considering that the opponent of the Chinese team in the last group match is the Brazilian team, the choice of opponents in this warm-up match is somewhat targeted.

Although it was a warm-up match, from Shi Wuyin's formation, it could almost be seen that he was playing this match as an official match.

As soon as it came up, the current strongest lineup of the Chinese team was ranked.

From this, we can more or less infer the starting list of the Chinese team in the first game of the World Cup.

After hesitating between Hao De and Lin Zhiyuan as the starting goalkeeper, Shi Wuyin still chose Lin Zhiyuan. This is not a surprising result of the choice. After all, since Lin Zhiyuan performed well in the last play-off game against Paraguay, there have been voices in China calling for Lin Zhiyuan to be strengthened and let him play the main force. Although the young man made some mistakes, he walked out quickly, which shows that Lin Zhiyuan has the precious quality of an excellent goalkeeper-a good mentality.

Central defender Mao Jun returned from injury early and played well in Dashun Golden Arrow, but Shi Wuyin still retained the main central defender combination Yao Huasheng and Wang Guangwei in the final stage of the top twelve. The two of them have partnered together since the play-off against Uzbekistan. After two rounds and four important play-off games, the tacit understanding and ability of the two have withstood the test in the most critical and high-pressure confrontation.

Wang Guangwei has made rapid progress in the league, and now that he has worn the armband of Anton Shining Star, he has become more calm and sophisticated.

The right back Shi Wuyin chose Bai Di, who played for the Shanhai Sailors, instead of Yu Daisong, the main right back of the national team. It is difficult to hit the main force. In the past, Bai Di, the main right back of the Olympic team, performed steadily in the club, and has already established himself as the main force in Shanhai Sailors. In fact, Bai Di went with the team in the two warm-up matches before the Chinese team went to Europe. It can be seen that Shi Wuyin is already inclined to replace Yu Daisong with Bai Di.

The left back is Qu Lu who is better at attacking. However, Shi Wuyin will also make adjustments according to the opponent's specific situation and his own tactical requirements. If he needs to strengthen his defense, he will replace Qu Lu with another left back Jiao Qirui. Jiao Qirui's offensive ability is like Qu Lu, But the victory lies in obeying orders, being diligent and willing to do dirty work, and not having an offensive heart, so he can stay behind and defend with peace of mind. In terms of defense, Jiao Qirui, who plays for Yunyang Phoenix, is more reassuring than Qu Lu.

Shi Wuji made some tactical and personnel adjustments in the midfield. It is no longer the relatively aggressive configuration of two front midfielders and one midfielder. Going to the World Cup, he chose a more secure approach, turning the triangle upside down-two midfielders and one front midfielder.

Gao Ruimin and Jiang Wanqing partnered in the midfielder, which is why Shi Wuyin finally recalled Jiang Wanqing, who was kicked out by him, back to the national team.

It is not enough to rely on Gao Ruimin in midfield defense. Gao Ruimin has strong running ability, but he is young after all. It is safer to partner with an experienced Jiang Wanqing beside him.

As for the front midfielder, there is no suspense, of course, it is Zhang Qinghuan, No. 10 of the Chinese team. In this position, no one in China can compete with him at present. Even if Guo Junfu, who has done a good job in the Olympic team, came to the national team, he had to honestly serve as a substitute for Zhang Qinghuan. What's more sad is that Zhang Qinghuan is actually not much older than him - just one year older, which means that at least in the national team, unless Zhang Qinghuan is injured, Guo Junfu will always be dominated by Zhang Qinghuan.

There is no suspense about the position of the front midfielder, and even less suspense about the striker trio.

Hu Lai is in the middle, Chen Xingyi is on the left, and Luo Kai is on the right.

This is the offensive trident of the Chinese team.

It can be said that if there are no surprises, the Chinese team will also use this starting lineup to face Algeria in their first group match in the World Cup.

This is indeed the strongest lineup that the Chinese team can currently field.

So what performance this lineup can perform in the warm-up match is naturally very eye-catching. The commentators in the commentary booth, the professional reporters in the media booth, and many fans on the scene and in front of the TV...all hope to see traces of the future performance of the Chinese team in the World Cup from this game.

The players are really working hard, and it doesn't look like they are playing a warm-up match at all, nor do they have reservations in the game because of fear of injury.

With such hard work, the Chinese team even led Colombia by one goal in the first half.

It was Zhang Qinghuan who scored for the Chinese team.

However, with the decline in physical fitness in the second half, the performance of the Chinese team declined.

Colombia took the opportunity to chase two goals in a row and rewritten the score to 2:1.

Later, Shi Wuyin did not let the players continue to fight against the opponent, but began to make substitutions and adjustments, dismantling the strongest starting lineup of the Chinese team to pieces.

Hu Lai was also replaced, and it was Zhou Zijing who replaced him.

In addition to Zhou Zijing, Xia Xiaoyu also got the chance to come off the bench.

The Chinese team has made a large number of substitutions, as has Colombia.

The rest of the game was uneventful, and the score of 1:2 was maintained until the end.

In this way, the Chinese team ended their last official warm-up match before the World Cup.

It is reported that after this warm-up match, the Chinese team will officially announce the 23-man roster for the World Cup.

That is a list that has received more attention from the whole society than the training list.

PS, what did I say yesterday?

England beat Croatia by one goal!

Really youthful and invincible... Seeing Modric lead such a Croatian team and find no way to score on the court, it is really sad and helpless.

If you want to say how well England played in this game...not really, the main reason is that Croatia didn't play well enough, only Mandzukic is missing...
