Golden Greenery

After Qu Bo's attack on No. 11, the Chinese team received three consecutive throw-ins from the right side of the frontcourt. Yao Kun threw the ball, went all the way to the baseline and passed the ball. Australian center back Spiranovic pushed the ball out of the penalty area. It happened to be obtained by No. 3 Sun Xiang.

He made a slight adjustment, swung his leg, bent his bow and arrow 5 meters outside the top of the arc, and hit a world-class long-range shot straight into the dead center of the goal. Australian goalkeeper Petkovic stood up, maybe just the fingertips of his gloves lightly brushed against a little football fur.

With a 'bang' sound, the football hit the door beam and bounced out of the frame. Sun Xiang held his head in pain and felt regretful.

Sun Xiang's shot in the 10th minute was the most threatening shot of the Chinese team in the entire first half. In addition, both China, which came from the expedition, and Australia, which played at home, performed mediocrely during the rest of the time, and the game was lackluster, including Zhuo Yang.

At Zhuo Yang's request, head coach Yin Tiesheng arranged a three-midfielder formation for this game, Xiao Zhanbo, Zhuo Yang, and Wang Dong, 4-3-2-1. At first glance, it looks like a Christmas tree. Of course, AC Milan is made of spruce and fir, while the Chinese team just cut the haystack into a cone shape.

The two defensive midfielders who started against Qatar four days ago, Huang Bowen accumulated yellow cards and was suspended, while Zheng Zhi had other arrangements and sat on the bench. Cao Yang and Zhu Ting were also suspended, as well as Sun Jihai, who was popular on the bench, and Wang Xiao, who had leg discomfort. These five did not come to Sydney.

It stands to reason that this is a life-and-death battle. Although the fate is not completely under one's control, winning is a prerequisite for all hope. Therefore, no matter from which angle you look at it, a strong attack is the only way out for the Chinese team. As the saying goes, 'the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road' , if you can win five, don’t just win three.

However, the strategy given by Zhuo Yang is - stick to it!

Moreover, Zhuo Yang requested not only to stick to the first forty-five minutes, but also to at least seventy minutes later. As for what to do after seventy minutes, Zhuo Yang didn't say.

In the first seventy minutes, the only requirement was not to concede the ball. Of course, it is wrong to retreat in defense. Zhuoyang requires the whole team to work step by step from the frontcourt to every position, fight for every inch of ground, and use fast horse counterattacks to scare the opponent not to be too arrogant. So, Du Xieyu, Qu Bo, and Gao Lin were the top three with pretty good speeds.

No one understands why Zhuoyang arranged it this way, and this is also the first time he has fully arranged the formation in the national team. Zhuo Yang is responsible for making requests, and Yin Tiesheng is responsible for selecting people to play according to the requirements. But you have to implement it even if you understand it, and you have to implement it even if you don't understand it. Not only because Zhuo Yang has such a big background, but also because Zhuo Yang got angry and fired as soon as he came to Sydney, and he was so domineering.

It all started the day after playing against Qatar.

Some retired former international players in the Chinese football community especially like to point fingers.

He can't stand this or that all day long. He makes it his mission to ridicule the top stars of the five major leagues and criticize the national team. He criticizes whoever he wants. You don’t care whether the approval is correct or not, I will approve it. Because the national team is a cesspit, and anyone who spits in it will get cheers from the fans.

They are all old gangsters in domestic football, with many connections up and down. Those who have been criticized know that they cannot afford to offend them and can only choose to swallow their anger. Anyway, when we get old and retire in the future, we can go back and criticize them. generation.

Do you really think these old guys are just bored and enjoying the heat? childish!

There are many players in the Football Association, and the national team naturally has its own way. This kind of war of words is actually the epitome and extension of the power struggle within the Football Association. The bosses use the words of the veterans to attack the players on other bosses' lines. The media is an accomplice, and the fans are just heckles.

Of course, even if these people were given 10,000 courage, they would not dare to criticize Zhuo Yang because the fans would not want to! Fans will cheer no matter who you criticize, but would you try it if it were Zhuo Yang? The same goes for the media, they are all smart! If you want your newspaper to sell well and have a high click-through rate on your website, you must focus on what the fans like and only show them what they like and want to see. This is the trick for all media.

The situation is like this now. Zhuoyang is covered by the sky above and has a 100% mass base below. If you dare to provoke him, you can only get tired of living. Except for the fans who are honest people, everyone else is smart.

After the team defeated Qatar 3:1, everyone took off their jerseys and gave them to the fans at Waterdrop Stadium in the pleasant autumn night. Zhuo Yang was the same, all shirtless. Then, a well-known troll opened fire, sarcastically criticizing certain players' tattoos.

"...You can't defend the back and you can't get in from the front. Some players in the national team don't have this ability at all. It's really difficult for them to play the game well. If it weren't for Zhuoyang, look at what these few players would have done with the game. What does it look like? Learn from foreigners and get tattoos. If you like tattoos, don’t join the national team. What do you think of the national team? Does Zhuo Yang have tattoos? Does Kaká have tattoos? Even Ronaldo, who can only shoot wildly, doesn’t have one. Are you better than Zhuoyang and the others?"

"...The national team doesn't mean you can get tattoos if you want, nor does it mean you can play well if you get tattoos..."

After some accusations hit the media, several players with tattoos on the national team immediately became the target of public criticism. Zhuo Yang didn't pay attention at first because he didn't offend him, but after Cheng Hao reminded him, he smelled it.

Tattoos are controversial in China. Opponents say: The body's hair and skin are affected by its parents. Supporters say: Tattoos exist in traditional Chinese culture and are not imported. The tattoos on the arms and nine dragons in Water Margin are gone, and there is no shortage of people with tattoos in any dynasty or generation.

This is indeed the case, but this needs to be said in two words. Traditional culture refers to mainstream culture. Have you ever seen any Jinshi or prime minister get a tattoo? The origins of tattoos all over the world are the same. In the early days, they were used as totem worship. After entering civilization, they basically only existed among prisoners and the bottom resistance culture. Later, they gradually evolved into a symbol that highlights rebellion and individuality.

Therefore, tattoos are not that high-end, but they are not a scourge. It is completely a private matter. You can just like it. There is no need to make it infinitely high. It seems that those who don’t have tattoos are just rubbish.

Of course, if you like tattoos, you have to accept the social consequences of tattoos. For example, you can't serve in the military or take civil service exams. If you find a girlfriend who is pretty, your mother-in-law will dislike you for being a gangster...

Zhuo Yang doesn't have tattoos because he doesn't want to get them, and Messi tattoos himself like "Prison Break" because he wants to get tattoos. That's all.

Putting aside the controversy over tattoos, it is worth pondering that the trolls chose this time to attack. It is customary to attack the 'opponent', and it is also incidental to show your presence. It’s hard to figure out the intention of praising Zhuo Yang and criticizing others.

Moreover, this was Zhuo Yang's first game after his return. He scored a perfect hat trick and was also the national team's first victory in the top 20. All the media was talking about flowers and praise. Zhuo Yang is good, so good... When a righteous man suddenly appears, it's not as simple as trying to cause trouble.

This is to test Zhuoyang's bottom line in the national team and test Zhuoyang's tolerance for infighting in the national team.
