World Cup of Great Powers

1 to 1, Xiaotian finally reached a satisfactory score and entered the halftime break.

On the Chinese Youth Team's side, everyone's expressions were not very good.

There were obviously many offensive opportunities, but because of the opponent's tenacious defense, we missed the goal.

"Fuck, what is this kick?"

As soon as Xu Liang entered the room, he threw the jersey on the stool first.

"The fans in Te Miao were all waiting to see our performance! But the enemy failed to fight, and instead he was bitten by a dog."

"If I lose, I won't even be able to hold my head up when I go back!"

The team members cursed and cursed.

It was not until Zeng Zheng and several coaches also walked in that they became silent.

Fortunately, compared with Tang Pengju, Chen Jinggang and others, these half-grown men always have a stubborn face;

But in front of Zeng Zheng, no matter how angry these guys are, they still have to restrain themselves at all times.

It's not that Zeng Zheng is too scary.

In fact, since taking charge of this new wave of Chinese youth teams, Zeng Zheng has never had a quarrel with any of his teammates.

He always had a slight smile on his face.

It looks like a spring breeze.

In fact, the team members were most in awe of him.

In the words of Jianlibao's "old-timer", Mr. Zeng does not get angry easily.

When he gets angry, the whole team suffers!

But today, these middle-aged and young team members suddenly discovered something.

That means they can't make Zeng Zheng angry;

But they are not qualified enough to make Zeng Zheng angry!

think about it.

Who did Zeng Zheng lead at that time?

Li Jinyu, Zhang Xiaorui, Li Tie, Zhang Ran.

Now these people are either killing everyone in Serie A, or making waves in the Portuguese Super League.

All of them have become the most admired idols of the new generation of young players.

Who are you taking now?

Xu Liang, Du Wei, Zhang Yaokun, Wang Xinxin?

Before these people were selected for the China Youth Team, how many other people besides local fans had heard of them?

The reason why Zeng Zheng was not angry with them was.

Was it because in his eyes, these players couldn't be compared with the Jianlibao group?

Looking at Zeng Zheng's smiling face that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

The team members who had lost their temper just now didn't dare to say a word.

"It was a good first half."

As soon as the door closed, Zeng Zheng set his character for the first half.

Upon hearing these words of praise, several arrogant team members immediately lowered their heads.

"In the second half, our tactics remained unchanged and we continued to find breakthroughs from both sides."

As he spoke, Zeng Zheng took out his pen and started drawing on the small blackboard.

"Xu Liang..."

"arrive!"

With a "whoosh" sound, Xu Liang jumped up from the chair and stood at attention.

Seeing his nervous look, Zeng Zheng waved his hand.

"Okay, don't be so nervous, sit down and sit down!"

After getting Zeng Zheng's signal, Xu Liang sat back in her seat.

"You played well in the first half and continue to play the same way in the second half."

"But there is a little change."

Speaking of this, Zeng Zheng drew a circle in the area where Xu Liang often made passes.

"Starting from the second half, you have to pass forward more."

"It doesn't have to be a high-altitude ball. Occasionally a ground diagonal ball will do."

Zeng Zheng said something and Xu Liang nodded.

The two eyeballs rolled around.

I wish I could cut out these simple sketches by Zeng Zheng and imprint them in my mind.

After Xu Liang finished explaining, Zeng Zheng immediately wiped the blackboard clean and continued:

"Yansong!"

"arrive!"

When Xu Liang showed up, Yan Wanwan screamed louder than him, and his legs were straighter than Xu Liang's.

"Okay, okay, sit down quickly, sit down, have you all taken some medicine today?"

Zeng Zheng kept waving his hands until Yan Song sat down again.

"On your side, make more breakthroughs and sink more bottoms."

"Yan Song, you need to increase your speed."

"What are you afraid of? Qu Bo can't run away from you?"

"It's best for you and Qu Bo to have sex alternately. After you have sex with him, he has sex with you."

"Crush their left defense line to pieces!"

"The messier the better, got it?"

After explaining the changes to the two forwards, Zeng Zheng briefly guided the movement of other offensive players after the changes.

And it is required that when attacking, a midfielder must penetrate forward and participate in the attack.

"Wang Xinxin, when you and Sun Ji attack, one of you must rush forward, and one must be behind to form a front-to-back position."

"Whoever attacks, who defends? I won't impose any strict requirements on you two."

"But remember, you must pay attention to the situation on the court, and you must communicate more between you two. Got it?"

This year's Japanese Youth Team has done a very rigorous job in aerial attack.

Whether it is Satota Nakazawa's height or their awareness of competing for headers, they are much more nervous than in the Asian Cup.

Therefore, Zeng Zheng arranged for Xu Liang to pass less over the top and more forward; and asked Qu Bo and Yan Song on the other side to use their personal abilities to carry out strong breakthroughs.

In the final analysis, it is still about attacking weak points.

After the offense was explained, Zeng Zheng began to talk about defense.

Different from group classes, this time students are brought out individually and given face-to-face instruction.

"Coach Zeng."

"Well, sit down."

After receiving Zeng Zheng's signal, Eric sat down politely.

"I heard that your parents also came to Iran?"

"Well, when they heard that I made it to the semi-finals, they flew over immediately. I just saw them in the stands."

"It's not easy. Where is the barbecue restaurant at home?"

"It should be closed. We don't hire workers. We bake all the barbecues ourselves."

"Oh, so that's it."

Zeng Zheng nodded, "Seeing that you can reach the semi-finals, your parents must be very proud."

"Well, I'm very proud, proud."

After saying a few words about common things, Eric lowered his head and tightly grasped a corner of his jersey.

He knows very well.

The biggest responsibility for conceding the goal at the end of the first half lies with myself.

If he hadn't shoveled rashly, Wang Xinxin could have made up for it and immediately formed a pincer attack with him.

At that time, even if Ishikawa Naohiro's ball cannot be intercepted, the opponent will be forced to protect the ball or pass the ball.

How can you cut in all the way to the top of the arc and shoot directly?

All of this is caused by my own blind self-confidence.

Before coming to Tehran, he had read a lot of news.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The outside world has a very cold attitude towards him, a young man from the frontier who has recently joined the team.

Although not exclusive.

But every time there is news about the China Youth Team, his shortcomings will be magnified infinitely.

In the end, the sensitive Eric Mu hid whenever he saw the media cameras.

Keep it off the screen as much as possible.

"How's it going? It's your first time playing in an international competition. How does it feel?"

"It feels... pretty good."

Eric Mu said nervously, for fear of getting that sentence wrong, "After all, we are competing against other national teams. The intensity on the field must be different from the previous training matches."

"Well, what about the cooperation with your teammates? Do you have any insights?"

It's all in the main race.

Are you still asking for insights at this time?

Zeng Zheng obviously had some other purpose.

Maybe he has to take himself off the field early!

Thinking of this, Eric Mu became more nervous and frustrated.

He lowered his head and continued to answer: "My teammates take good care of me. Sometimes I go up but don't come back, and they help me make up for it as soon as possible..."

After all, it is the Chinese youth team.

This is not Xu Hebao’s training ground.

When I was in Chongming, there were several frontier students like myself on the team.

But when he got to the China Youth Team, he was the only Western player on the team.

Even if everyone accepts him again, there will still be a natural gap in him.

It's not something that can be made up for in the past few days of training.

"Well, they should replenish it for you, as long as you can come back."

After saying that, Zeng Zheng put the laptop on his lap and said hello.

"Sit over here."

"Oooh!"

Eric Mu quickly brought the bench and came to Zeng Zheng's side.

"In the second half, your range of activities should be increased."

"Here, here, and here, they all have to be covered."

Looking at the circle pointed out by Zeng Zheng on the 3D court, Eric Mu quickly remembered it in his mind.

"Compared with other players on the team, your physical fitness, body fat percentage, bone density, etc. are all higher."

"Those players from the southeast coast can turn their small lives upside down, so you can do even better."

"Don't be timid in the second half, just do what you need to do with your body!"

"They can't fuck you!"

"I have two requirements for you."

"First, add this piece to your defense zone and run more laterally to help the midfielder help defend."

"The second one is to choke this kid so that he can't even get up!"

"Remember?"

"Uh huh huh huh!"

Seeing that Zeng Zheng did not replace him, Eric Mu nodded repeatedly.

He didn't even say the three words "remember".

"Okay, go back and call Sun Xiang over."

"Um!"

...

Don't look at it as Tehran.

In addition to local Chinese, there are not a few fans who have money to go abroad to watch football.

A large area of ​​the huge grandstand was dyed Chinese red.

"Ah, ah, what a pity, I let Xiao Rigan score a goal in the end."

"Yeah, that frontier defender is too irritable and out of tune with the other players on the field."

"I really don't know why Coach Zeng brought him this time. It would be great to bring Gao Ming, but I won't!"

Listening to the sounds of "Alikmu" and "Alikmu" around her, Aimu, who was wearing a scarf on her head, tilted her head and asked her wife:

"Old man, I heard them calling our son's name all the time. What are they talking about?"

Father Ai shook his head and pretended to be deaf and said: "They spoke too fast and didn't hear clearly."

Mother Ai sighed, "Oh, our son didn't score a single goal today. I wonder if the coach can let him play in the second half!"

Father Ai had no explanation after hearing this.

Although Aimu's starting point was a bit off, the ending was consistent with his thoughts.

My son had such a big hole at the end of the first half.

Not to mention the second half, it’s not certain whether he can play in the next game!

Maybe this Asian Youth Championship semi-finals will be the most glorious moment of my son's career!

It was bustling for 15 minutes.

Soon, players from both sides filed out of the tunnel.

Father and mother Ai opened their eyes nervously.

When they saw Eric Mu stepping onto the court with the other players, they couldn't help but wave their arms and shout.

The fans nearby frequently glanced at the two couples.

It seemed that he was trying to figure out who he was, and he was actually cheering for this "contributor who lost the ball".

"Okay, welcome back the fans in front of the TV."

"What we are broadcasting for you now is the second half of the Asian Youth Championship semi-final match between China and Xiaotian."

"In the 45 minutes of the first half, the two sides were tied 1-1."

"In the first 10 minutes, Qu Bo opened the scoring for the Chinese Youth Team with a penalty kick."

"But at the end of the first half, Naohiro Ishikawa lobbed a shot from outside the penalty area and opened Angel's fingers."

"The two teams changed sides and fought again in the second half."

"Neither head coach of either team chose to make substitutions."

...

After the start of the second half, the scene was a little different from Zeng Zheng's estimation.

The little guy who equalized the score had no intention of launching an attack after the start of the second half.

They took possession of the ball first and calmly fell down for a long time in the backcourt. It wasn't until they saw the Chinese Youth Team starting to press forward that they kicked a long pass from the backcourt and hit the Chinese Youth Team halfway.

field.

In the high-altitude ball in their own half, the Chinese Youth Team still has a great advantage.

Even though Maeda Ryoichi is 1.81 meters tall.

But which midfielder of the China Youth Team is not over 1.8 meters tall?

After two consecutive attempts to win the ball failed, the midfielders rushed back like a tide, leaving only Ryoichi Maeda in the frontcourt.

"It seems that Xiaori wants to carry out the Iron Bucket Formation to the end." Chen Jingang looked helpless.

Zeng Zheng shrugged.

If it were him, he would fight like this.

His skills are inherently inferior to others.

Now that we have finally tied the score, how can we easily go out and attack?

Even if the battle was to be resolved within 90 minutes, it would still have to be delayed until about 80 minutes.

Use the last moment of the game to fight to the death with your opponent.

It is reasonable to adopt a defensive tactic now.

Don’t forget the last Asian Youth Championship.

This is what Zeng Zheng did!

"Coach Zeng, let's..."

Zeng Zheng shook his head.

Today is different from the past.

This Chinese youth team is called the "Super Platinum Generation" by the media.

In fact, this Japanese youth team also has a nickname in China, called "Tanima Generation".

Translated, it means "the trough between the peaks".

In other words, this Japan Youth Team can be said to be relatively mediocre in front of the talented players of the previous generation.

Even compared to his younger brother who is U16, he is somewhat dwarfed.

Regardless of their actual level.

At least the media and public opinion at home and abroad are not very optimistic about this group.

Today the enemy is weak and we are strong.

If you continue to engage in defensive counterattacks, it is equivalent to giving up a good situation to others.

"Just do it!"

Zeng Zheng waved his hand.

Coaches all over the world have ways to deal with turtle shells, and there is only one way.

That is to swing a hammer and break the turtle shell into pieces.

As for whether you have an air hammer or an iron hammer in your hand, it depends on how good your soldiers are.

...

Speaking of the current situation on the court, it’s not like the China Youth Team has no chance at all.

Yan Song is naturally left-footed.

But because Xu Liang was on the left, Zeng Zheng placed him in the right midfield position.

This is one of the reasons why Zeng Zheng asked him to cut inside more often after getting the ball.

With Xu Liang and Yan Song attacking in different ways, the Chinese Youth Team at least looked very purposeful offensively in the second half.

Breakthrough, pass...breakthrough, go down...side, center...move, run again...pull apart, pull apart again...

Under attack from both sides of the China Youth Team, Xiaori's defense lines were crumbling on the left and right sides.

Wang Xinxin received Sun Ji's pass, took only one step forward, and immediately passed it to Yan Song on the right.

Yan Song took the ball and took a few steps forward on the wing, but found that there was no chance to break through.

He immediately turned around and knocked the ball back to Eric Mu, who stepped in, and the latter passed the ball to Sun Ji in the middle.

After Sun Ji got the ball, he immediately moved to the other side and handed it to Xu Liang who came over to respond.

In a short period of time, the China Youth Team safely shifted the direction of attack from the right to the left.

At the same time, Xiaozhi's defense line also moved over.

However, some mistakes will inevitably occur during the move.

After Xu Liang got the ball, he didn't go too deep and passed the ball directly to Yu Tao in the middle.

The latter used his thigh to catch the ball and deliberately blocked the ball to Qu Bo, who rushed over to receive the ball.

After the latter stepped in, he quickly followed up with a blast.

Fujitani Yosuke gritted his teeth and blocked the ball.

He didn't dare to pick her up rashly at such a close distance.

Looking at the ball above his head, Aoki immediately ran towards the landing point of the ball.

Without looking around, he kicked the ball far forward with a big kick.

Zhang Yaokun jumped high and tipped the ball to Wang Xinxin who came back to assist.

After Wang Xinxin got the ball, he quickly passed it to Sun Ji, who dribbled the ball forward and continued to attack.

After playing for so long, Zeng Zheng raised his head and looked at the world.

Before I knew it, fifteen minutes had passed in the second half.

So far, although Xiaoli's turtle shell has been loosened, there has been no fatal blow.

"It's time to replace someone!"

Zeng Zheng muttered in his heart.

As he waved, several substitutes in the seats immediately stood up and came to the sidelines to warm up.

Seeing something going on on the sidelines, the players on the field also became more energetic and stepped up their offense.

Who knows if the next time the ball goes dead, it will be you who is replaced?

As the China Youth Team's offense became more intense, Xiaori's defense gradually strengthened.

After another five minutes, Xiaori replaced two players in a row.

One is a defender and the other is a defensive midfielder.

Defender Nasu Dairyo is also 1.8 meters tall and even stronger than Haneda Kenji.

Although Okubo Yoshihito is two centimeters shorter than Komano Yuichi, who was eliminated, his "quickness" and "shooting" were famous in the high school league in his childhood.

Just like Guoan's little Kuailing back then.

Zeng Zheng could see at a glance that replacing Okubo Yoshito on Xiaori was not for pure defense, but to give the Chinese Youth Team a fatal blow at the critical moment.

Even so, the China Youth Team still adopted the previous offensive method.

Mr. Zeng Zheng felt.

For this reason, the players have actually shown their offensive skills.

The reason why there hasn't been a goal yet is entirely due to luck.

If you make a rash substitution at this time and break the rhythm, it will be a big deal and your opponent will seize the opportunity to counterattack.

In the 66th minute, there was another quick transfer.

This time it's from left to right.

After Sun Ji attracted the opponent's attention, he then tapped his heel and gave the ball to the feet of Eric Mu, who was in the back row to assist.

Eric Mu moved the ball forward, as if he was going to take the place of Yan Song.

Such changes shocked the young players.

When the defenders pressed past, Eric Mu suddenly stepped on the ball.

When the defensive player also stopped, he quickly pushed the ball along the sideline and just passed it to the feet of Yan Song who was running outside the sideline.

"pretty!"

Seeing Eric Mu's assist this time, even Tang Pengju and Chen Jingang couldn't help but cheer.

Because of the wing cooperation this time, when Yan Song rushed to the baseline, there were almost no defenders around him!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yan Song not only had enough time to observe his teammates in the penalty area, but also adjusted his body shape and direction and continued walking along the wing toward the penalty area.

It wasn't until two people came over to defend, and Yan Song saw the opportunity, that he decisively sent a cross.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Qu Bo, who was rushing forward.

But after taking away the two defenders, Qu Bo did not touch the ball.

At this moment, Fujitani Yosuke shouted.

"Don't let him get up!"

But it's still a step too late.

Xu Liang rushed to the penalty area and followed up with a kick to meet the ball.

The two defenders stretched their legs desperately to block it.

However, Xu Liangcai is not some muscular man who only knows how to ejaculate vigorously.

This powerful swing was extremely gentle when it landed on the ball.

Xu Liang did not choose to shoot.

Instead, he sent the ball near the penalty spot again.

As two more defenders missed the defense.

The middle lane of Xiaoli is now empty.

Yu Tao, who had been waiting at the penalty spot for a long time, twisted his body and pushed with his left foot.

It's like taking thousands of penalty kicks in practice.

The ball stuck to the turf and went straight to the blind spot of the goal.

"Xu Liang didn't cum, pass..."

"Yu Tao!"

"The ball is in!"

"In the 67th minute, the Chinese Youth Team exceeded the score again!"

Liu Jianhong's delighted voice sounded again from the microphone.

"Wow~!~~"

The cheers erupted from thousands of Chinese fans once again flooded the entire stadium.

Tang Pengju and Chen Jingang also hugged each other immediately and celebrated each other.

"Coach Zeng, coach Zeng, we scored a goal!"

"We scored again!"

"We are ahead again!"

Zeng Zheng smiled and nodded.

"Haha, shouldn't we be the ones in the lead when we are playing in the small days?"
