Vol 4 Chapter 74: Veteran

Because of the poor offensive performance, the Chinese team can only passively defend.
But the Chinese team's defense is not too solid. Although Li Fengwei, a meritorious veteran of the national team's defense line, sat down, Li Fengwei was already a 34-year-old veteran after all, and his physical condition was seriously deteriorating. Somewhat embarrassed.
In fact, Li Fengwei still occupied a place in the history of the Sino-Japanese football confrontation. There is a very famous photo in the grudges of Chinese and Japanese football. It is the picture of Li Fengwei, the captain of the Chinese national team, pinching the Japanese national team captain Keita Suzuki with a smile. . It was the East Asian Cup in early 2008. Although the Chinese team lost the game 0:1 in that game, Li Fengwei's pinch was domineering and became a picture of people talking after the game. At that time, the Japanese media reconciler was very angry at this scene, and the Japanese media even thought it was a shameful scene for Japanese football.
But in fact, from the football itself, this is not a glorious thing, after all, the game loses, even if you pinch the neck? Still a loser on the football field.
Now, 34-year-old Li Fengwei, facing the fierce attack of the new generation of the Japanese team, gradually feels alone.
In the twenty-fifth minute, Honda Keiyou passed Kasumi Kagawa. After Kagawa received the ball, facing the defense of the Chinese national team captain Li Fengwei, he suddenly accelerated after a fake move. Although Li Fengwei saw it, he had reacted physically. Coming, slowed by half a shot, I could only watch Kagawa Shinji burst into the penalty area from the other side, and then shot with anger, the football flew into the goal guarded by Zeng Cheng.
"Pretty—!!!" the Japanese commentator shouted. "Kagawa Shinji! Kagawa Shinji! He set the first record for the Japanese team!!"
At the Tokyo National Arena, the cheers that sounded at that moment were like volcanic eruptions. After the Olympic team lost to the Chinese team and lost the gold medal, Japanese fans also held a fire in their hearts.
Now this anger can finally be vented.
"Danger! Oops!" Liu Hong exclaimed after Kagawa Shinji inserted into the penalty area, but in the end, he still could not prevent the Japanese team from scoring. "The Chinese team fell behind on the road! The Chinese team’s back line has been under pressure all the time. It’s dangerous, and it’s like losing the ball at any time. This is too dangerous, but in the end the national team still couldn’t get through... Li Fengwei When defending head-on, Kagawa Shinji easily broke through... No way, 34-year-old Li Fengwei is already a veteran, even if he performs well in the Tianjin team, but the domestic league and the top ten games are not at the same level. on……"
In the past two years, Li Fengwei's performance is indeed excellent. At the beginning of this year, the best professional about Asia on the British professional football website is the artist selection. Li Fengwei was selected. As the best central defender, the website's evaluation of Li Fengwei is: since he left After joining the Tianjin team in the Korean Super League, Li Fengwei's experience and changes over the years have some inspiration for the entire Chinese football. This experienced veteran played a very important role in the Tianjin team's dressing room and also helped the Tianjin team win the Chinese Football Association Cup championship.
Because of last year's outstanding performance, domestic public opinion has been calling on Gao Hongbo to give the veteran a chance to do their best for the Chinese team to hit the World Cup. This veteran includes Li Fengwei and Zheng Zhi.
So after the start of the top ten, Gao Hongbo followed the "public opinion" and recruited Li Fengwei, but Zheng Zhi was completely in conflict with Zhou Yi's role, so he was not recruited.
After Li Fengwei entered the national team, he became the captain with his seniority. It must be said that Li Fengwei is still conscientious in the national team and also played a leading role in helping the coaching staff stabilize the locker room. In the past, there have been many negative comments about Li Fengwei, who believed that he was a player who led players against coaches and clubs. On the court, he often couldn't control his temper and ate, which caused controversy.
However, as his age increased and his experience increased, his temperament gradually converged, and now he is no longer the uncontrollable ball tyrant.
Gao Hongbo recruiting Li Fengwei into the team is not only forced by the pressure of domestic public opinion, but also sees changes in Li Fengwei.
But there is one saying that Li Fengwei's importance in the locker room is not the same as his importance on the court. The competition intensity of the Chinese Super League and the Football Association Cup cannot be compared with the competition of the top ten in any case. This is related to who can go to the World Cup. In terms of the importance of each team and the gold content of the game, it even exceeds the Asian Cup. .

After the goal, Shin Kagawa ran excitedly towards Keisuke Honda who assisted him. Two Japanese players who played in Europe hugged together. Other Japanese players also rushed to celebrate the goal with excitement.
In the restricted area, Li Fengwei raised his head and closed his eyes in pain. He knew that it was his responsibility to lose the ball. He couldn't refute and couldn't blame others. He could only scold himself if he scolded him, which made him very stumped.
The "big head" who wanted to be so ridiculous at that time is now hard to withstand the invasion of years...
On the Chinese network, some fans who do not have a good opinion of Li Fengwei are scolding his defense as "defense with eyes", and others question why Gao Hongbo wanted to recruit such an elderly player into the national team, and Also gave him the opportunity to start.
"Why don't you use Guo Nu's starting? The person Guo Nu's height is almost, but the height of the little Japanese child is not high!"
※※※
After losing the ball, Gao Hongbo finally got up from the seat. He walked to the side of the court and slaps to encourage the team to let them not be discouraged by the lost ball.
The bench internationals sitting on the bench were also very annoyed by the lost ball. Yang Muge and Guo Nu sat together. Guo Nu held his head with both hands and leaned against the back of the chair. Although Yang Muge did not have such exaggerated movements , But also sighed.
For them, the defensive problems of the Chinese team actually greatly increased their chances of playing. For example, someone selected online has called for Gao Hongbo to replace the two of them to withstand the offensive of the Japanese team.
But the two of them on the sidelines did not think so much at this moment. They were just breathing the same fate with the eleven national teammates on the field. Regret and regret for the Chinese team lost the ball, did not think whether they will get the possibility of playing.
Zhou Yi turned to look at the old captain Li Fengwei. While he was still a fan, he watched Li Fengwei on the TV wearing the national team's jersey, wearing the captain's armband, and confronting players from various Asian countries. He has had a lot of controversy on and off the court, but it is undeniable that he was the best central defender in Chinese football at that time. His two headers against Uzbekistan and Qatar in the top ten in 2001 made Xiao Zhou Yi, who was watching the ball in front of the TV, jump from the seat with excitement.
The Chinese team can reach the World Cup finals, Li Fengwei is also indispensable.
The hero of Chinese football has now become the culprit of losing the ball.
The various experiences in the middle made him only sigh.
Saying sympathy is very hypocritical.
Can't bear to look at the hero's drama again and again, Zhou Yi turned his head and happened to hit Kagawa Shinji's eyes.
Just after the celebration, Kagawa Shinji turned his attention to Zhou Yi.
The eyes of the two met in the air. Although they did not speak, Zhou Yi understood the meaning of Kagawa Shinji-he challenged himself with this goal.
However, Zhou Yi did not respond, and looked away calmly.

After the game restarted, the Japanese team took advantage of the momentum they had just gained and continued to attack the goal of the Chinese team. Among them, Kagawa Kaji was very active.
Every time he receives a ball, passes and shoots, he can immediately win the praise of the Japanese TV commentator.
Chinese commentator Liu Hong also repeatedly mentioned the threat of Kagawa Shinji to the Chinese defense.
After losing the ball, Li Fengwei obviously became the main target of the Japanese team in the offense. Fortunately, he was not affected by the lost ball and was still actively defensive. Although the frontal defensive ability has declined, he still has a very high level of header competition. The Japanese team occasionally came to a side pass and was directly pushed out by Li Fengwei.
But the Japanese team still completely suppressed the Chinese team.
After losing the ball, the Chinese team played very embarrassed. For a period of time, they couldn't even pass the half. He Ying was cruising at the front and could not catch the ball at all.
The Chinese team's defense line was frequently in an emergency, and the sirens in front of the door continued.
"This ball is dangerous!"
"Danger!"
"It's so dangling!"
The commentator Liu Hong kept popping out such words.
The Chinese fans in front of the TV also watched the tension abnormally, and the heart attack was almost committed.
Fortunately, after losing the ball~EbookFREE.me~The Chinese team's contraction defense still played a role. Zhou Yi also actively participated in the defense, using his judgment of the Japanese team's ball path to interfere with the Japanese team's offensive organization. He also had a direct conversation with Kagawa Kaji, when he was in front of Kagawa Kaji. Kagawa Kaji had not chosen to break through, but passed the football horizontally, avoiding Zhou Yi.
In the end, after the efforts of the Chinese team, until the end of the first half of the game, the Japanese team failed to expand the score.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was 1:0, and the Japanese team at home took the lead.
Liu Hong praised the performance of the Chinese team after losing the ball and looked forward to the adjustment of Gao Hongbo in the intermission.
The Japanese commentator was a bit disappointed that the Japanese team did not expand the score in the first half.
But at the same time, in his simple outlook on the second half, he is still optimistic that this will continue, and it should not be a problem for the Japanese team to win the Chinese team at home.
