Golden Greenery

Seventeen-year-old Liu Langdong returned to the bench, took the coat handed by the assistant coach and wrapped it up, then stuffed himself heavily into the seat and looked at the court with an ashen face. Lan

He had just been replaced and was second in the game, with the Chinese team lagging behind.

Sixty minutes ago, Langdong was so high-spirited. Sixty minutes later, Langdong felt like a piece of shit who had been running for sixty minutes.

A week ago, Langdong received notification from his eldest sister that he had signed a new contract with Barcelona. The contract is for four years, with an annual salary of 3.2 million and a liquidated damages of 150 million.

Relative to his age, this is a pretty ideal contract, even better than when Messi entered the first team. After hearing the news, his teammates and captain all congratulated him.

Then in the first game against Uruguay, Langdong and Zhang Xian came on as substitutes in the second half to sort out the midfield and straighten out the team. With one less player, they helped the team stabilize their formation and led to the final 4:2 victory. Opponents contributed.

The media said: Liu Langdong is an eye-catching golf wizard.

In the second game against Ecuador, Liu Langdong started the entire game with Zhang Xian and Peng Mingzhi. Lan

He performed outstandingly in the midfield throughout the game, and the team won 5:0. Langdong scored and assisted. After the game, he scored 9 points second only to captain Zhuo Yang.

After the two games, Liu Langdong tried hard to cover up the joy in his seventeen-year-old heart with a calm and calm expression. At that moment, he firmly believed that at the age of seventeen, he would start flying high in the America's Cup.

Just like the age when captain Zhuo Yang started.

With great expectations, Liu Langdong started again in the third group match against Chile. He was then the first to be substituted after sixty minutes.

.

Before the game, the Chinese team had won two games and accumulated 4 points. In the America's Cup, 12 teams advance to 8, and the two third-placed teams in the group with the best results will also advance, so both teams have actually entered the quarterfinals.

So, the Chinese team had to train for the last game. Lan

Li Ke is still suspended, and Zhang Tiedan was diagnosed with a thigh muscle strain. No matter how fast he wants to play football, it will be a month later. Sforza took the opportunity to officially launch the long-planned three central defenders + three midfielders tactic.

Eunuch Jiang - Peng Xue Gong - Wang Pou Po + Ka Daxi - Zhang Xian - Liu Langdong, a combination that has been proven in the first two games.

The formation is 3-5-2, and the right wing is a good choice. The best right back in the Russian World Cup, Maro, is there. But Sforza was hesitant about the choice of the left wing. In the end, between Azhe and Pang Tiezhu, Zha Ge leaned towards the young man, and Tiezhu finally started.

Maro on the right and Tie Zhu on the left are full midfielders when attacking and fall back to full backs in defense. They are two wing-backs, but the Chinese team does not play wing-back tactics.

Captain Zhuo Yang will not start, and the Chinese team will use a midfielder with three midfielders as its core.

Forward Gao Taiwei occupied one spot. After careful consideration, Zha Ge gave the other spot to Li Zimo and gave You Deshui a rest.

Six young Spring Bud players started the game, and there was no Zhuo Yang in the lineup. The right wing Maro wore the captain's armband. Lan

The Chinese team aims to train, but Chile is playing it real.

Chile is the winner of the last two America's Cups, and their soldiers have been well trained for a long time. Except for Manchester City goalkeeper 'Regent' Bravo, who has been injured for a whole season, and is not here this time, Chile's core skeleton has not changed, and it is still the same group of people who won two consecutive championships.

Coach Rueda and the entire Chilean football community have high hopes for this Copa America. Three consecutive championships will be their highest goal. This is something that even Brazil and Argentina have never achieved.

Therefore, Chile does not need to train its troops. They will always fight this way no matter who they fight.

Langdong and five other Spring Bud players walked onto the court singing the national anthem, and then were beaten dazed by the Chileans.

With captain Medel, famous general Vidal, and Pulgar and Aranguiz cutting through the midfield, the national team's three midfielders turned into three isolated men within ten minutes of the start, losing the organic connection between offense and defense. , only fighting alone is left.

The midfield was chaotic, and the formation was completely chaotic. The Chinese team basically had no structure. It relied on the players' unremitting fighting spirit and goalkeeper Xiao Yan's high resistance to barely keep the goal. Lan

Liu Langdong received special care from Medel on the court, so he did nothing for sixty minutes. He was originally the brains of the team, but he became the team's cerebral palsy.

Zhang Xian was also strangled to death by Vidal. The Chinese team's midfield was completely out of control and malfunctioned. The only motor that still occasionally turned was the lonely Kadasi.

The young man did not expect that without the captain's ability to intimidate the opponent, without the captain's restraint on the opponent, without the captain's guidance at any time on the court, without the captain's ability to shut down the opponent's most dangerous position, everything would be so different.

The teenagers gritted their teeth and persisted on the court, fighting one after another, but in the end they could not stop the ball.

Before the end of the first half and shortly after the start of the second half, Chile scored a goal each from Pulgar and Vargas, putting the game on the winning track 2:0.

In the first round, veteran Azhe replaced Liu Langdong, who had worked hard until he was about to collapse.

When he came off the field, Li Zimo in the frontcourt was holding his knees with his hands and breathing heavily. Lan

After coming on as a substitute in the last game, Li Zimo immediately contributed a shot and a pass, scoring the young player's first goal in this America's Cup.

After the game, he was happy for a long time, full of pride and very confident. Zimo feels that the opponents in the America's Cup are nothing more than this.

Perhaps because of his outstanding performance that day, Zimo, like Langdong, was cared for by the Chileans, making him almost invisible.

Liu Langdong thought he was a piece of shit, and Li Zimo also thought he was trash. The Chinese team only had 4 shots, one of which came from Zimo, which was high and narrowly missed.

Today's setback made him understand the gap when he faced a mature defense line alone.

It turns out that I still have a long way to go.

The first substitution adjustment was made by Li Zimo, especially on the water. Lan

When Zimo left the scene, Peng Xue Gong looked at him from a distance.

Peng Xuebing considers himself to be the one who has improved the most in the past year among all the Chunlei players. Because he is in Manchester City, right next to the captain. He also participated in the British Championship with the captain and won the championship together.

The only young player to start three consecutive games in the America's Cup has confirmed Peng Xuebing's recognition of himself. But the reality is ruthless, and his self-recognition was shattered by the game process.

Peng Xuebing knew that today's defense was weak, and it was a shame that they had only conceded two goals until now.

The opponent's wing Fuenzalida's impact on the ribs made him miserable. Every time Sanchez and Vargas changed positions in the middle, the heart of the ice cream was blocked in the throat.

The two goals conceded were not Peng Xuebing's responsibility alone, but he couldn't shirk it either.

Without the balance of the captain, the opponent turns out to be so tough. Lan

In the 75th minute, the Chinese team made its third substitution.

Captain Zhuo Yang is on, center defender Peng Mingzhi is off.
