There is a dream called football

On May 11, Capital Time, national football head coach Zhu Guanghu held a press conference to announce the initial roster for the World Cup. This is a roster of 27 people. According to FIFA regulations, 4 people will be deleted from the final roster to form a 23-man roster.

National People's Congress list.

Goalkeeper: Li Leilei, Liu Yunfei, Yang Zhi

Defenders: Sun Xiang, Li Weifeng, Du Wei, Feng Xiaoting, Zhang Yaokun, Ji Mingyi, Cao Yang, Sun Jihai

Avant-garde: Tan Wangsong, Zheng Zhi, Lei Wen, Zhao Xuri, Chen Tao, Hao Junmin, Shao Jiayi, Li Tie

Forwards: Gao Lin, Mao Jianqing, Li Jinyu, Qu Bo, Dong Fangzhuo, Li Qiao

Substitutes: Zhou Haibin, Zhu Ting, Han Peng, Cao Yang.

When the list was announced, reporters were not surprised, because this is the national football list in everyone's mind, and many people can even use this list to determine the starting lineup.

Zhu Guanghu said: "Except for Li Qiao, who cannot play with the national team for the time being due to reasons well known to everyone, the rest of the players will go to Germany for training first. The final list will be announced at the end of May."

By mid-May, the squads for each country had come out. Henry was definitely selected for the French team, Robin van Persie was also selected for the Dutch team, and the rest of the Arsenal players also had to fight for their countries.

As a team of Arsenal's level, it faces happy worries. On the one hand, after the World Cup, FIFA will transfer a large amount of compensation to Arsenal's account. On the other hand, at the beginning of next season,

At that time, I am afraid that Arsenal will be invaded by the FIFA virus, which was particularly obvious during the last European Cup.

For this reason, Wenger also held a meeting with the players and asked everyone not to be interfered by the national team until the end of the Champions League final.

"Remember, you are still from Arsenal. Before the final, I am your only boss."

"Don't worry, head."

CCTV reporters have been stationed in London for a long time, but this time there are more people coming. Everyone understands that how far the national football team can go in Germany depends largely on Li Qiao's performance.

The gap between the rest of the players and stars like Li Qiao is still very obvious. Without Li Qiao, the national football team might be almost the same as the last World Cup and go home in the group stage.

"CCTV reporter London has sent you a report. Li Qiao's condition looks good and he was also very active during the group confrontation."

Then there are some videos of Li Qiao's goals in the team's confrontation.

"These are during warm-up, because Arsenal's tactical training is closed, so we can't take pictures of Li Qiao training with the whole team. But it is conceivable that a healthy Li Qiao is very important to Arsenal and the national football team."

It’s almost important.”

After the training, CCTV reporters also conducted a brief interview with Li Qiao.

"What fans are most worried about is your physical fitness."

"There is no problem with my physical fitness. I am completely ready, but I am the latest to return to the team. It will take time to adjust to everyone's tactics."

"I believe that the national team's tactics must be arranged around you."

Li Qiao chuckled, "Well... I think everyone is a soldier under Director Zhu, and tactics must be based on the situation of the game."

"You are now undoubtedly the number one player in the national football team and the number one player in Asia. We are looking forward to your performance."

Li Qiao was very modest: "I don't think there is any need to elevate me. I think in the World Cup, we in China are still students, and I am going to study."

This is true. In fact, many people's more realistic expectation is not to qualify from the group, but to draw or win a game. After all, for Chinese football, being down-to-earth is real progress.

"I hope the national football team can learn something."

"I think that's for sure."

"We're ready."

The mayor of Paris said this. This season's Champions League final will be held at the Stade de France on the outskirts of Paris, which is also the home stadium of the French national team.

80,000 tickets were sold for this final, and the fans of Barcelona and Arsenal were divided 50-50. It would be a happy trouble for the city of Paris. On the one hand, the arrival of so many people would be a big income.

, on the other hand, these fans are not so easy to serve, especially the fans from England.

During the 1998 World Cup in France, the French were deeply impressed. It was these people from England who were causing trouble. The riots on the streets of Marseille were caused by the English. Therefore, the French police strengthened their security forces. First of all, England has a history of football hooligans.

Fans are not allowed to come to France. Another point is the control of alcohol, so that people in England drink less.

The first person who led the team to Paris was Wenger. He is French. Now he was returning home. At the airport, the reporter interviewed him directly in French.

“It feels so good to be home.”

"I hope to win the Champions League trophy in my hometown. That will be the best moment in my life."

"Will you take your players on a tour of France after the game?"

"Of course, I have to introduce my hometown to these players and, you know, we're going to visit France with the Champions League."

But this is nonsense, because even if Arsenal wins the championship, these players will not have time to go on vacation, the World Cup!

Barcelona led by Rijkaard then came to Paris, and he was a little cautious because Barcelona was definitely not as familiar with France as their rival Arsenal.

When asked how he prepared for this game, Rijkaard shrugged, "Just play like the previous games. We are the best team in Europe. I don't think we need to prepare anything, anything."

It’s just a matter of playing.”

"Do you think the game will be 50-50?"

Rijkaard thought for a while, "Absolutely, but I think overtime is a high probability time. We practiced penalty kicks."

Rijkaard repeatedly emphasized that his team practiced penalty kicks, which actually showed that his team was fully prepared for the difficulty of the game.

"The last Dutchman, my predecessor Cruyff, achieved great success in Barcelona, ​​and my dream is to become the next Cruyff, so..."

"I heard that Iniesta has a slight injury?"

Rijkaard nodded.

"At this point in the league, my team has some problems, but like I said, this is the final, and we have no choice but to win the game, and even Iniesta can't make it.

We still have a lot of good players available, so it’s nothing..."

"Will we see you as Barcelona coach next season?"

"Of course, my contract with Barcelona is not over yet. I think I will fulfill my contract at Barcelona."
