Vol 5 Chapter 118: 23 people list and 6 highlights

The Chinese team ’s second World Cup before the World Cup at Lun Stadium Westfa ended with 1: 2, and it still did not taste a victory, but it was not bad news for Chinese team coach Lippi. He passed two World Cups before The warm-up match has already decided which players to bring to Russia.
In addition, the two games also saw the progress and deficiencies of the Chinese team.
Is especially inadequate. Center defender Feng Xiaoting and striker Gao Lin are in a very sluggish state. The left back position has also exposed some problems, but the problem is not big.
Originally according to Lippi's idea, the central defender used the 23-year-old Gao Junyi and Feng Xiaoting, but Feng Xiaoting's game state and attitude have declined significantly. If he is placed in the main position, it is likely to become the Chinese team in the World Cup. Time bomb for the group stage.
After the warm-up match with the German team, the Chinese team returned to China on a charter flight the next day and will prepare for the final World Cup qualifier against Ecuador in Xi'an.
Before arriving in Xi'an, the Chinese Football Association submitted a final list of twenty-three to FIFA.
Goalkeepers: Yan Junling, Zeng Cheng, Wang Xiaolei
Defenders: Zhang Linpeng, Gao Junyi, Feng Xiaoting, Li Xuepeng, Deng Hanwen, Jiang Zhipeng, Shi Ke, Liu Yiming
Midfielders: Tang Zheng, Hao Junmin, Liu Ruofan, Li Kui, Wu Xi, He Chao, Zhang Xizhe
Forwards: Lu Liang, Sun Jingbo, Wu Sanshi, Ye Erfan Ye Zimujiang, Zhang Yuzheng
The reduction of personnel in the midfield and backcourt is actually expected by China's domestic media. After all, Liu Yiming and Huang Zhengyu are significantly weaker than Feng Xiaoting and Gao Zhunyi in terms of ability and experience, and they cannot be convinced in the limited warm-up time. The performance of force is normal.
The abilities of Cao Yunding and Wei Shihao, who are in the domestic league, are among the best in the Chinese Supernatural, but they are not at the same level as the foreign players.
But Gao Lin's out-of-the-box is quite surprising. His rich experience in the game and the obvious role in the frontcourt can be used as the center in the front, or he can pull the edge to bring opportunities for teammates to insert in the middle.
But it is understandable to see foreign players who are all in the striker line of the Chinese team.
Although Liu Ruofan and Ye Erfan are only 19 years old, their abilities are very strong, which is not possessed by the top stars in the Super League.
The only controversy is that Huang Bowen and Zhao Xuri were even brushed down by U23 player He Chao ...
Of course, it is just controversy.
Lippi's tailor-made formation for the Chinese team has already formed. The double-backs combination is quite stable. It is Tang Zheng and Li Kui, who rises in the Asian Cup in Australia. The three forwards and forwards will all be foreign players. , So the survival space for domestic players is completely negligible.
Huang Bowen and Zhao Xuri played in the midfield in the past few seasons are organized midfielders and defensive midfielders, which means they are destined to play the bench, as long as Tang Zheng and Li Kui are healthy, they have no chance to play.
Rather than leave the precious opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere of the World Cup to Zhao Xuri and Huang Bowen, who are in their thirties, it is better to leave it to He Chao, a future star.
From this, it is not difficult to see Lippi's future layout of Chinese football.
Lippi, who has reached the age of seventy, will end his thirty-five-year coaching career after the World Cup this summer. According to domestic media, it is neither Madaloni nor Li Tie , But currently coaches Cannavaro of Guangzhou Evergrande.
Whether it is Lippi or Cannavaro, they are good at training young players, so Lippi brings a lot of young players to the Russian World Cup.
The seven players who were not shortlisted for the final twenty-three roster were dissolved on the spot, but they did not return directly to their respective clubs to prepare for the second half of the league, but received a short break.
During the period of the domestic league truce, these players have no time to train with the national team, and the Chinese team still has the last warm-up match. According to the relevant FIFA regulations, the twenty-three list submitted does not mean that it cannot be changed. If there are players injured or injured 24 hours before the opening match of the World Cup in Russia, players can be replaced, so these players still have a certain chance to participate in the World Cup in Russia.
Is just this possibility, somewhat low.
The list of twenty-three people submitted by the Chinese team appeared on the FIFA official website, which means that the Russian World Cup is getting closer and closer ...
But before that, the Chinese team had another World Cup warm-up match between Xi'an Olympic Sports Center and Ecuador.
The reason why Lippi chose Ecuador as the last opponent of the Chinese team is extremely targeted. The overall strength of Ecuador is not particularly strong, but the playing style is similar to the last opponent of the Chinese team C group Peru.
Can not only adapt to the opponents of the World Cup group stage in advance, but also bring confidence to Chinese players.
Two birds with one stone!
※※※
The Xi'an Olympic Sports Center, which can accommodate 60,000 spectators, was full. Those fans who did not buy tickets for the Chinese team group can only cheer for the Chinese national team in advance in this way.
Under the cheering of the fans, the Chinese team opened the record early through the direct free kick of captain Tang Zheng.
Lou Liang, who performed amazingly in the past 2017-2018 season, helped the Chinese team to expand the score. Sun Jingbo, who played for AC Milan, was not alone and icing on the cake.
In the end, the Chinese team defeated Ecuador 3: 0 in the cheering of the fans.
However, all the coaches, players and staff of the Chinese team did not fly to Russia for the first time, but took a two-day break, and then took a charter flight to Kazan, Russia at 11 noon on June 12, Beijing time to prepare for the battle with the French team. Group C first round group stage.
According to the official ticket purchase channel data of the Russian World Cup Organizing Committee, there are more than 100,000 Chinese fans buying Russian World Cup tickets, second only to the number of Russian local fans buying tickets, but this is not the number of Chinese fans pouring into Russia.
It ’s important to know that there is not much China, but there are many people, especially when the Chinese team has entered the World Cup for the second consecutive time, the fans are particularly crazy.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to the number of Chinese fans attracting attention, there are many Chinese elements that have become the highlight of the World Cup in Russia.
In the future, I will see the small national flag waving in the hands of the fans on the electronic screen of the stadium; 100,000 crayfish from Hubei Jingzhou to Central Europe train to Russia; the mascot of this World Cup "Zabi Waka"; the commemorative edition authorized by FIFA world Cup……
In addition, seven Chinese companies have become sponsors of the World Cup in Russia, the highest ever in the World Cup.
Of course, it is the Chinese men's football team that has attracted the attention of Chinese fans.
Four years ago, the Chinese team returned to the World Cup and reached the quarterfinals after 12 years. Will the Russian World Cup four years later take the Chinese diamond generation led by Tang Zheng one step further, creating a new Asian team in the World Cup? What about records?
When the Chinese team appeared at the Kazan International Airport flight exit, in addition to many Chinese fans who arrived in Kazan in advance, there were also a large number of Russian local fans, but these Russian local fans welcomed not the Chinese team, but the Chinese team ’s Individual players.
Such as Tang Zheng, Lu Liang, Zhang Linpeng, these players have a very high reputation in the European League.
The Chinese team arriving in Kazan quickly invested in active preparations, because the first round of the game against the seed team France will directly affect the Chinese team's prospects.
Although the overall strength of the French team is stronger than that of the Chinese team, football matches are never divided according to strength. It requires players to determine the final result through a ninety-minute struggle, so the Chinese World Cup in the Russian World Cup in Kazan Stadium The first group match is expected to achieve upset.

The opening game of the 2018 World Cup in Russia is at 6 pm on June 14th, Russia local time, which is 11 pm Beijing time.
Prior to this, there was a traditional opening ceremony.
Tang Zheng was watching the opening ceremony with his teammates in the hotel where he stayed. Unlike the opening ceremony of the Olympics, which usually takes several hours, the opening ceremony of the World Cup is usually controlled at about 30 minutes, and the Russian World Cup is no exception.
Despite the limited time, the Russians still dedicated an unforgettable performance to fans all over the world, and the six highlights are worth recalling.
First of all, before the opening performance, the legendary Spanish goalkeeper Casillas and Russian supermodel Vordinova jointly brought the Hercules Cup, which symbolizes the highest glory of football in the world, into the venue.
Then Brazilian star Ronaldo took the little boy into the Luzhniki Stadium slowly. His fake shooting action in the middle of the stage took the lead in igniting the fanatical atmosphere of the opening ceremony and became one of the six highlights of the opening ceremony.
The third highlight is the famous British singer Robbie Williams, who wore a red suit and sang the first note of this music feast. The passionate energy song turned Luzhniki Stadium into an instant Ocean of music.
Following Russian soprano singer Aida Carriefrina and a song of affectionate duet will once again push the fanatic atmosphere to its climax.
The fourth highlight came from the famous British singer Robbie Williams. His singing on the side of the stadium showed the towards the broadcast screen, which attracted attention, but Tang Zheng sitting in front of the TV was capable of understanding Robbie William. James's approach, he is for the pursuit of freedom, but the way is a bit too ...
The fifth bright spot is that for the Chinese only, there are 6 small flag bearers from Danzhai County, Guizhou, China, this is the first time the Chinese flag bearers have appeared in the opening ceremony of the World Cup in the past 90 years.
The six flag bearers of the opening ceremony all came from the same country, the same province and the same county. This historical moment will also be written into the history of the World Cup.
In addition to the Chinese flag guards, 12 Chinese caddies also joined the Russian players.
The last highlight came from the stands. At the opening scene, fans from all over the world wore fancy clothes and expressed their excitement about the coming of the World Cup.
For example, a fan who painted his head as the logo of the World Cup in Russia, he not only attracted the attention of the audience, but also appeared in front of the world with the TV broadcast.
What made Tang Zheng speechless was that even a Chinese fan held up the Chinese National Super League team Beijing Guoan's fan scarf, becoming one of the unique scenery on the scene.
Tang Zheng and many teammates looked at each other, but Zhang Xizhe from Beijing Guoan was overjoyed and praised this Beijing Guoan fan.
The end of the opening ceremony means that the opener is coming.
The host Russia sits at home to the Luzhniki Stadium against Australia. At the beginning of the game, both sides appeared a little nervous, playing very cautiously, and did not fully show the characteristics of their respective teams.
Until the game entered ten minutes, the two sides slowly let go.
No one thought that less than two minutes after releasing the kick, the host Russia scored.
Zobrin's right rib was jammed into the penalty area. Zagoyev shoveled at the twelve meters in front of the goal and was broken by Omar Hausavi. The left corner of Zobrin was ejected. Russia got the ball to continue the attack. After a diagonal pass on the left, Gazinski pushed into the lower left corner six meters in front of the door.
The next game time, the two sides came and went, and the play was very open, but Australia, eager to equalize the score, failed to score a goal. Instead, it was enlarged by Russia before the end of the first half.
Golovin broke into the right side of the penalty area at high speed, and Zobrin scored a goal ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Chelishev, who came off the bench, took two defensive players with his left foot on the left side of the penalty area and left six meters in front of the goal. Push your feet and hang close to the net.
Change side in the second half and fight again, Australia with two goals behind has no choice but to strengthen the offense.
Russian play has become smarter, first defend, then attack, so Australia has not been able to find too good opportunities.
Under fanatical home atmosphere, Russia locked in the victory in the 71st minute, and Juba, who came off the bench, scored a goal from Golovin's arc pass at six yards in the penalty area to expand the score to 3: 0.
The Chinese players sitting in front of the TV watching the game shook their heads, and even Tang Zheng sighed. Australia's performance is actually good, but it was too anxious to face the host.
According to Tang Zheng's guess, Australia may also lose the ball.
In the first minute of injury stoppage time, Cheryshev, who had been a teammate with Tang Zheng for a short season, hit the four-seater world wave with his left foot.
However, the Russian goal feast of the home team was far from over. In the last minute of injury time, Golovin took a free kick directly to the right of the penalty area and goalkeeper Matthew Ryan did not respond.
Eventually, host Russia beat Australia 5-0 at Luzhniki Stadium, creating the biggest difference in the World Cup opener.
But this has nothing to do with the Chinese team, they just need to remember to do their best in the next three group matches.
The end of the opener means that the twenty-first FIFA World Cup 2018 officially kicked off. The gluttonous feast that fans all over the world have been waiting for for four years will be fully launched, and fans around the world will release their passion for fans they support.
