I Just Can Score

The next day is game day.

Morning.

After having breakfast in the hotel restaurant, all members of the Chinese national team gathered and took the bus to the Capital Workers Stadium.

The game is at five o'clock in the afternoon.

The plan of Duisevic and the coaching staff is that the team will stay at the Workers Stadium for a day. In addition to warm-up, training and competition, rest has also become an important thing, because continuous training will definitely affect physical fitness, and the stadium will also Rooms on the field have been arranged for players to take personal breaks, as if they were staying at home and waiting for their opponents to arrive.

This is the home field advantage.

At China's home court, the national team can easily prepare and wait for the opponent to arrive and the game to start.

The Korean team also arrived very early.

Yesterday morning, the Korean team had already arrived in the capital. They also visited the Workers' Stadium in the name of visiting the stadium. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Korean team also arrived at the Workers' Stadium early to give the players more time. Be familiar with the venue.

During afternoon training time, the two teams met.

Two teammates who are about to play against each other meet and train together on the same court. It is inevitable that they will talk about each other.

There is a lot of focus on the Korean team.

The current number one star of the South Korean team is undoubtedly Park Ji-sung, who plays for Manchester United. Park Ji-sung has also been in the spotlight recently. He successfully renewed his contract with Manchester United and his weekly salary was increased to 70,000 pounds, which also represents his income. He became the middle-level player of Manchester United, on par with semi-main players such as Wes Brown, and became the second-highest-paid star in the history of Asian football (the first is Zhen Shaolong).

The Korean media was very excited about this.

There is a star that the Korean media uses as a comparison target for Park Ji-sung - Michael Owen.

The Manchester United club has just announced the latest transfer news. They signed Michael Owen, a free agent who left Newcastle United, for free. The new contract has an annual salary of 3.5 million pounds. Owen took the initiative to accept the request for a salary reduction to join.

Therefore, Park Ji-sung's salary is slightly higher than that of Michael Owen.

Korean media keeps mentioning this,

"Park Ji-sung (earning) is better than Michael Owen!" When they report, they like to ignore the three words in the middle. Because they have to compete with the Chinese team, their report content becomes, "Park Ji-sung is better than Zhen Shaolong. A good partner is better.”

The partners of top stars will also be top stars.

The Korean media just want to tell the fans, "We have a star that is not much worse than Zhen Shaolong."

Other key stars in the Korean team include young star Lee Chung-ryong who has just transferred to Bolton Wanderers, Lee Young-pyo who has been very successful in PSV and Dortmund, and Lee Tong-guk, Lee Yun-jae and others who are playing in South Korea.

The Korean team is indeed relatively strong. Their lineup configuration is nothing in the world, but it can definitely be ranked among the top three in Asia. Because of the strong strength of the team, they are very confident in the competition.

The focus of their conversation was on Zhen Shaolong--

"Zhen Shaolong is indeed very good. His transfer is the best news. It is said that Real Madrid and Manchester City worked together to lure him to Real Madrid!"

"I know, more than 200 million euros, oh my God! And Real Madrid's three strikers!

"His salary is a bit unimaginable. It is more than 20 million euros after tax. If you count it before tax, it is almost 40 million euros. He earns more than 100,000 euros in one day, which is almost ten times that of Park Ji-sung's new contract. .”

"But the game has nothing to do with fame or income. We can definitely guard him! He is the only one in the Chinese team who deserves attention!"

"Yes! We can definitely do it!"

"come on! Come on!"

When the players of the Korean team were talking, one person did not speak, that is, the central defender Zhao Yonghyung. Zhao Yonghyung played for Jeju United in South Korea. His performance has always been very stable and he also got the opportunity to enter the national team, but he only played in the Korean domestic league and did not With a resume of playing in the five major leagues, it is difficult to stand out in the Korean team. At most, he is regarded as an ordinary player. Zhao Yonghyung's words usually have little weight. He is very dissatisfied with this situation and hopes that he can perform well in the game. Performance.

This is the opportunity.

Zhao Rongheng was assigned to start, and the player he faced was Zhen Shaolong. Head coach Xu Dingmao also specially told him to pay attention.

Zhao Rongheng is very much looking forward to the defensive work, "This game has a lot of attention. It is said that there are live reports in Europe because Zhen Shaolong will participate in the game."

"If I can guard Zhen Shaolong, I can become famous in one battle! Then no one will look down on me. Even teams from the five major European leagues will actively invite me to join..."

"So you must work hard in the competition!"

"This is a great opportunity, a great opportunity that no one else has!"

The Chinese team was relatively quiet.

During the afternoon training, everyone was warming up. Few people commented specifically on the Korean team. The main focus was Zhen Shaolong. Compared with Zhen Shaolong, the so-called stars of the Korean team can continue to retain the title of 'star'. It's already great. When the players talk about it, they talk about Zhen Shaolong, and the stars of the Korean team don't have much to say.

In addition, the Chinese team players also feel the pressure.

In fact, when facing the game, the Chinese team was much more stressed than the Korean team because the Chinese team was reported to have 'Korean phobia'. Of course they wanted to get rid of this bad name and hoped to defeat the Korean team and win. .

Players are also under pressure.

It would be good if we can defeat the South Korean team in the end, otherwise because the game attracts so much attention, every detail in the game will be amplified by the media. If a player performs poorly, he may become the 'sinner of the loss', or even the 'Chinese team'. sinner'.

Under such circumstances, every player is under pressure.

Theoretically speaking, Zhen Shaolong is under the greatest pressure because he is the number one star and shoulders the responsibility of winning and losing. If he loses the game, many people will definitely talk about him. Even if he does not score a goal in the game, he will receive a lot of criticism. .

Zhen Shaolong always acted very relaxed.

After a period of simple warm-up training, Zhen Shaolong went to the sidelines to be interviewed. One was CCTV and the other was South Korea's Seoul TV Station. Because there were limited interview opportunities on the field, the two companies were filming and interviewing together.

The reporter did not ask any specific questions and just asked Zhen Shaolong to talk about the game.

Zhen Shaolong just said a few words casually, "This is the first time I have entered the national team, represented the national team, and participated in an international A-level event. Although it is only a warm-up match, it is also very meaningful to me."

"What I have to do is strive for performance, strive for a good performance, score a few more goals, and help the team win."

"Our entire team is definitely striving for victory."

Zhen Shaolong spoke very casually, and his expression was very relaxed during the process. There was indeed nothing wrong with what he said. He said some words about working hard and striving for victory before the game, which were just ordinary words to boost morale, but every word of the focus will become the focus, and It will be used by outsiders for various analyses.

The Chinese media was not doing well, but South Korea was dissatisfied first.

"Try to score more goals?!"

"What does this mean? He just said that he will definitely score goals. The difference is just how many goals he scores, right?"

"Zhen Shaolong underestimates the powerful Korean team!"

CCTV's report also followed the Koreans' thinking, jokingly saying, "Because of Zhen Shaolong's participation, the Chinese team has taken the lead by one goal in advance."

Korean media, "Zhen Shaolong is talking nonsense! He actually looks down on the strong Korean team!"

Chinese media, "What Zhen Shaolong said is the truth. For him, scoring goals is not a problem at all. South Korea's defense line cannot guard him."

Korean media said, "We in South Korea are also very strong and have many stars."

Chinese media, "All your stars put together are worth a fraction of Zhen Shaolong's worth."

Before the game, I spent a lot of time in intense reports.

soon.

As the game time approached, the recognized stadium in the capital was overcrowded, and the fans in the stands began to roar their expectations for the game with exciting shouts.

Players from both sides enter.

Whenever the players enter the stadium, the noise in the audience will get louder. The situation at the scene is a bit special. Many fans in the stands are shouting just one name, "Zhen Shaolong!" With the same tone and the same voice, It feels as if the competition is to welcome Zhen Shaolong, and the others have completely become foils.

The other players were also mentally prepared. Their fame was so different from Zhen Shaolong's that they were not on the same level at all.

This further stimulated the motivation of the Korean team players to compete. They felt that they had been slighted and felt very unhappy. They hoped to participate in the game and prove that they were worthy of being welcomed.

Some of the rituals before the game passed quickly.

"Beep~~~~"

The referee Jahari from Singapore blew the whistle, and the match between the Chinese team and the South Korean team officially began.

The first to kick off was the South Korean team.

The South Korean team considers themselves relatively strong, and their style of play is still a bit offensive. Their midfield and frontcourt are indeed advantageous. Park Ji-sung and Lee Ching-ryong on the left and right can be said to be a Premier League-level combination. Lee Tong-guo, Park Joo-young is also a very efficient player, and the Korean team's offensive ability is worthy of recognition.

The South Korean team's first wave of offensive play was also good. The ball was quickly sent to the right baseline, and was only destroyed when it was transferred to the cross. Li Qinglong struggled to get the ball again, but the ball was still handed over by Ha Yang. To teammates.

The Chinese team controlled the ball steadily.

The style of play assigned by Duisevic is mainly defensive, which is actually a very helpless choice. He hopes that his team can play an elegant and gorgeous offense, but the player's ability is a big problem, even if the player's ability is sufficient. No, he is just the head coach of the national team and has no time to integrate training tactics. He can only use the simplest tactics that are easiest for players to adapt to as the basic tactics for team games.

The Chinese team's tactics are to stabilize defense and offense. Just organize the play style of each position. Players go to the court and see how the situation unfolds. If they need to defend, they should do more defense. If they need to attack, they should do more offense. There is no special requirement in tactics. direction.

Duisevic's only arrangement was to ask the players to cooperate with Zhen Shaolong.

This doesn't really need to be emphasized.

Zhen Shaolong's fame and abilities are overwhelming. Some people in the team are not convinced by him, so they can only continue to keep it in their hearts, not even daring to say it out loud. Everyone will take the initiative to cooperate with Zhen Shaolong, and everyone will show a positive attitude.

When the Chinese team launched an attack, Zhen Shaolong would have a chance to get the ball if he didn't move very far forward.

In the third minute, Zhen Shaolong received the ball for the first time.

The football was kicked diagonally from the center. Zhen Shaolong was restricted by the opponent and had to turn around to catch the ball. However, because the pass was not very accurate, he reluctantly stopped the ball with the instep of his foot, but could not completely control the opponent. The two players, one left and one right, grabbed the ball directly.

"The ball was taken away by Kim Jung Woo..."

"Jin Zhengyou and Zhao Rongheng completed a double-team on Zhen Shaolong. The defense was very successful this time!"

"Zhen Shaolong touched the ball for the first time, but failed to control it!"

This is just an ordinary scene in the game.

Being double-teamed by two opposing players, it was normal not to be able to grab the ball passed by his teammates. Zhen Shaolong seemed to be given a special meaning when it was placed on him. Korean fans felt very excited. They felt that their players had succeeded. Defended the opponent's core star.

The players who participated were also very excited.

For example, Jo Yong Hyung.

Zhao Rongheng is the player who plays against Zhen Shaolong. He knows that there are many opportunities to defend. The game is his opportunity to perform. A good performance will definitely attract the attention of the world. Completing a successful defense with his teammates is also a good start.

"If there's a first time, there's a second time!"

Zhao Ronghyung thought firmly, "Try hard to guard him and restrict him. As long as I can succeed continuously, many people will definitely notice me!"

at the same time.

Zhen Shaolong didn't care about being intercepted at all, because the ball just now was not intercepted and the position was not very good, so it was difficult to find opportunities.

His definition of opportunity is 'possible goal'.

It is impossible to score a goal, it is not even a chance, and being snatched by the opponent is nothing. The important thing is that the opponent has completed a successful steal and accumulated a temporary effect of "being charged with possession of the ball"--

Passive ball control effect accumulation: once.

"Once, for two seconds."

Zhen Shaolong was thinking carefully about mathematics, "It's not realistic to get the ball close to the goal. I have to retreat. The position where I catch the ball is a bit far from the goal. Two seconds is still not enough..."

"If you can accumulate three effects, two seconds will become six seconds. Even if you catch the ball in the middle line, you can directly threaten the goal, right?"

Zhen Shaolong suddenly became excited. He looked at Zhao Rongheng who was walking by, and suddenly remembered that the other party seemed to be defending him just now?

"come on!"

Zhen Shaolong gave Zhao Rongheng a thumbs up.

Zhao Rongheng stopped in a daze, feeling suddenly moved, "No one in the entire Korean team recognized me. Even the head coach didn't take me seriously. Giving me a chance to start was like a reward... Zhen Shaolong would actually do it because of me. Successful defense gave me a thumbs up and recognized my defensive level..."

"So touching!"

Zhao Rongheng had the urge to cry when he was recognized. He suddenly thought firmly, "It seems that I still have to work hard! Try harder! I not only want to be recognized by Senior Zhen Shaolong, but also want to be recognized by more people, and even the whole world." World recognition…”
