Reborn on Top of Football

After two days of preparation and venue adaptation, the Chinese team completed the starting list: Bai Guanghai, Mao Jianqing, Wang Ai, Chen Tao, Zhao Xuri, Yan Song, Feng Xiaoting, Yuan Weiwei, Guo Liang, Zhang Yonghai, Zong Lei.

From the starting list, Wang Ai's position change is completely invisible. This is also the deepest fog that the Chinese team will give to the Paraguay team and the next Chinese opponents: you see my list is useless! Lao Gao’s large-scale rotation has also played this role. Now many opponents have not even figured out the main lineup of the Chinese team, so it is impossible to accurately determine the tactical assumptions of the Chinese team. This may also be the new tactical system of the Chinese team. It has a powerful force, but there is still no reason to pay attention to it.

In addition, of the 32 teams in this World Cup, the Chinese team is the most stable, and the core team has the longest time to play and train together! This has also helped many players not only know their own position, but also have a deep sense of other positions as they grow up.

For example, Zhao Xuri, who took on the heavy responsibility in this field, although he has always been a midfielder, once lost the main position because Wang Ai wanted to return to the midfielder to form a dual-core with Chen Tao, and the Chinese team insisted on playing 442. But he and Wang Ai have played together for ten years. How hard Wang Ai is in training, so hard that he doesn't need to practice other positions, just watch it.

On the evening of July 3, local time in South Africa, and early in the morning of July 4, Beijing time, the Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, Paraguay, China, and South Africa fans filled the stadium one hour before the start of the game. The Paraguay team entered the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time, and the Chinese team is again preparing to break through the quarter-finals. Both sides are high-spirited!

CCTV Sports Channel started the World Cup special report on July 4, Beijing time. There are already a large number of fans waiting in the middle of the night to watch the pre-match analysis of the guests, watch the relevant interviews of the reporters in front, watch the live game, and watch the analysis of the guests. The game even watched the performance of other fans in public places across the country!

Recently, the sports channel has been very crazy. It not only defeated the ratings of CCTV, but also broke the concept of prime time. As long as it is a match day, what time is the prime time! However, the biggest piece of cake was taken away by one set. It is said that the head of the ministry said: If the Chinese team can make the finals, one set of CCTV, five sets of joint live broadcast!

Advertising costs half of the others!

But there is no way, one set is big brother, have to bear it.

The society is even more lively. Some units and companies that are relatively leisurely or have relatively free working hours have adjusted their commuting hours on match days to take care of the fans watching football. Although other companies have not adjusted, they have been a lot more tolerant of fans. After all, many bosses are also fans.

Not so!

Competitive sports can easily cover the ugliness, and there are really no black spots in this national team, and the fans will support it more confidently.

Duan Xuan and Tao Wei stayed behind in the Beijing live broadcast of this game. The commentator is He Wei and the guest is Shen Xiangfu! Old Shen was not very happy to come: "I am eating hot pot well at home and watching the ball feel comfortable? Why do I fly to South Africa to toss?"

Zhang Bin’s reason is also very strong: "This is the moment when the Chinese team is about to break through. The last to lead the national team to break through was you. You are the first Asian Games gold medal and Olympic bronze medal in Chinese football. So please come as a guest. In order to better communicate back and forth and share the mood... Xiao Wanger, they told us before going abroad that we should try our best to contact history and the brilliant achievements of other industries to dilute the impact of their breakthroughs. In other aspects, our host will talk about it. , But there must be a legacy in football, right? You were the last person who led the Chinese team to make a major breakthrough. I will explain to everyone the major breakthrough at hand. All aspects are very meaningful."

Old Shen called Zhang Bin and said nothing. He had to pack his luggage and come to South Africa five days in advance to prepare. Their job is not necessarily much lighter than the coach. They also need to study the opponent's information, watch the opponent's game video, and even all the customs. Pay attention. Although there is not much that can be said in the commentary, those "smash hits" are all coming from this way.

While the Chinese team was still on the road from the hotel, the CCTV program had already begun. He Wei and Lao Shen stood shoulder to shoulder with their backs to the court, said hello to the camera to the domestic fans, and then chatted with Duan Xuan in the Beijing live broadcast room. After a few gossips about the weather and the stadium, Duan Xuan took over the topic and Tao Wei did the pre-match analysis.

Since the start of this World Cup, Gao Hongbo has changed frequently, breaking through people's imagination repeatedly, which made the guests extremely cautious. Gao Hongbo certainly wouldn't hit anyone in the face deliberately, but if you have to use your face as a speed bump, they can't brake either. Fortunately, there are still many game clips and front interview videos that can be played, which can be regarded as reducing the work pressure of the guests.

After an hour of gossiping, the director sent a signal that the game ahead was about to begin. So in the eyes of the national fans, they returned to the Johannesburg stadium at night.

At 8:30 p.m. local time and 2:30 a.m. Beijing time, the long-awaited fans finally three referees walked out of the player channel first, and then the Chinese team in the ivory white jersey and the Paraguay team in the red and white striped shirt followed in sequence.

"The Chinese team has once again rotated players in a large area. How do you think about this unusual phenomenon, guided by Shen?"

"The 23 players have their own characteristics, and different permutations and combinations will have different effects. The emergence of this phenomenon firstly proves that the coaching staff has a very strong grasp of the players, a very deep understanding, and can deploy them arbitrarily. Secondly, this national team is explained. The strength of the team is relatively average, and the difference between the main substitutes is not much. This also provides a solid foundation for the coaches to develop different tactics for different opponents."

"Will this become a tradition for the Chinese team?"

"It's hard to say." Shen Xiangfu thought about it and explained it briefly: "Each national team has its own particularities, and the team in front of us is the same. They have been champions since they were young, so the core lineup has always been stable, which makes them long-term side by side. , Inspiring each other, and growing together. Only then can they have a high degree of tacit understanding and relatively average strength. Without this background, I am afraid that there will be no such conditions."

He Wei understood in seconds, then stopped talking, and began to play the national anthem on the court.

Three minutes after the opening, Lao Shen wiped away his cold sweat: Fortunately, shut up! Why is this little Wanger playing forward again?

The same surprise is of course the Paraguayan coach, who specially rehearsed a 361 for this game, but the Hedgehog gathered a multiplayer midfielder and actually went to the empty. Lao Gao is of course fortunate, if Wang Ai and Chen Tao face the double-team of the other four midfielders, the pressure can be imagined. However, Paraguay has changed so much that the two ribs of the three central defenders are doubly weak in front of Wang Ai.
