Vol 6 Chapter 30: Intermission

In the dressing room of the Spanish team, the atmosphere is a little dignified.
This is their battle of honor, but in the first half, except for Villa, who showed such determination, no one else felt this way.
Bosque was certainly not satisfied with the team's performance in the first half.
However, he is not good at directly criticizing these players. After the failure of the first two games, he can already feel that his control of this team is not as good as four years ago.
If he scolded the national team players at the halftime break, he would dare to crash and show him on the court directly in the second half.
This team has won all the championships in the past three major competitions, and I am afraid that they are tired of them, and it is not rare. To put it bluntly is a team that has not pursued.
So Bosque can only coax them.
In the dull air, he praised the team's performance in the first half and attributed the score to bad luck.
This actually makes sense.
Villa's heel shot was so subtle and sudden, it was almost perfect, but it was stunned by Sun Pan. This is not bad luck?
Zhou Yi's cross-footed shot was still in the goal. It was hit by mistake and passed to Guo Nu. The Chinese team even scored the goal. Isn't it bad luck?
So when Bosque said that he was unlucky, these two moments appeared in the minds of Spanish players.
Many people feel that this statement is correct, and their luck is really not very good.
"But bad luck cannot always be around us, no one will be unlucky forever. In the second half, as long as we still have expectations and confidence in the victory, we will be able to beat them. Know that in terms of overall strength, we are superior Theirs, they all depend on the starting lineup, lack of sufficient bench thickness and change..."
Bosque began to instill confidence in the players and wanted them to stick to the game.
On the other side, Lippi praised the team's performance in the first half, and then warned the players not to be complacent and self-satisfied because of a goal lead. Spain's strength is still very strong. If you are not careful, you will still be struggling to be killed by their dying, which is not the result the Chinese team wants.
"...If there is a chance of scoring a goal, be sure to seize it firmly and don't let your feet be soft. If you want to fight, you will kill the enemy completely and not be hurt by their counterattack." Lippi said.
He did not say too much about specific tactics. In terms of tactics, he has arranged it properly, mainly relying on the player's execution level on the court.
These starters have good tactical execution, especially after Zhou Yi, his understanding of the coach's tactical intentions is the top three in today's world football, and it is no exaggeration.
With him, it can make the work of the head coach a lot easier.
※※※
The fifteen-minute intermission quickly passed. After enduring a long advertisement, the audience in front of the TV followed the host and guests at the rear to review the highlights of the first half. Everything in the picture returned to the Bai Shada Arena.
The players of the Chinese team have walked out of the tunnel and come to the court. Zhou Yi is talking to his teammates and holding his hand to his mouth. This is the habit he has developed in the European arena.
I don't know what he said, everyone was laughed, and every Chinese player's face showed a relaxed expression.
The Chinese team is now leading, and they can certainly be happy and relaxed. This was originally a normal thing, but in the eyes of some people, it means something completely different.
On the Internet, one person posted on Weibo that the Chinese team players were not serious enough. In such an important life-and-death battle, it is a bit excessive to have a hippy smile. He also turned over the old account, saying that Zhou Yi and Guo Nu blatantly quarreled in the first half, which is really not enough to respect their opponents. In this way, if the Chinese team finally lost the game, he would not be surprised at all.
Of course, this wonderful Weibo was soon captured by Chinese fans. They ridiculed and ridiculed them in the comments.
"Bloggers say, how much money did you put down on the Chinese team to lose?"
"The blogger's brain is sick. Does the Chinese team your wife or beat your children?"
"The national football team's expression is tight, saying that people are too stressed, and their psychological qualities are not good. The national football team smiled and said that people's hippie smiled, and did not respect their opponents. How can you not be so heavenly?
"You can't do anything, you can't learn anything, you'll know how to spray!"
"The blogger certification turned out to be a financial writer. I beg you to write your financial article. Don't come to climb high-end things like football..."
...
However, some people are curious as to what Zhou Yi said to his teammates, and made everyone so happy.
Well, it's actually very simple. Zhou Yi hacked Guo Nu again.
"Old Guo, I just took a look. The hair in the area above your head is obviously softer and thinner than the hair in other places. You have to be careful..." he said to Guo Nu with a long heart.
As soon as Lao Guo heard this, an agitator knew that Zhou Yi was going to black himself again, so he quickly hacked himself in advance: "What are you afraid? The big deal is to become the second Qi Zu! Xie Ding!"
Zhou Yi shook his head again and again: "No, no, I don't mean this, I mean you have to reduce the number of headers in the future. Otherwise, your hairline will be sharper and higher, what if you just bald the front? What about Japan? The head of an ancient warrior is the same, it’s better than a sloping top!"
"Your sister..." Guo Nu didn't expect that Zhou Yi would even slap him when he was black.
The teammates next to them all laughed.
Zhou Yi waited for everyone to laugh almost, so he raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
Everyone knows he has something to say, so he no longer laughs, but looks at him seriously.
"There is still forty-five minutes, it is definitely not safe to lead a ball, so if possible, we have to score as many goals as possible and kill the suspense of the game as soon as possible. So after the second half starts, we have to try to keep the rhythm of the football match Speed ​​up, try to force them in all directions, grab the ball and fight back directly. If you don’t know how to play, and you are not sure how to play, pass the football to me, no matter where, I will guarantee you Around……"
Everyone nodded again and again and accepted Zhou Yi's proposal.
"This is definitely not our last game in this World Cup." Zhou Yi finally said. "We can definitely go further!"
"Yes! Go further!"
Everyone echoed in unison.
Then Zhou Yi reached out, and other players put their hands on his hands, and then they shouted in unison: "One, two, three, the Chinese team cheers!!!"
Subsequently, they each returned to their own positions, ready to start the second half of the game.
※※※
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought, and no one made any personnel adjustments.
Spain does not seem to have recovered from the rhythm of the intermission, but the Chinese team is very active.
The Chinese team kicked off the second half, which is good news for Zhou Yi.
After controlling the football under his feet, he did not pass back or move horizontally, but directly sent a long diagonal pass to the left side of the road and passed it to Yan Min who pulled to the left side.
This long pass is fast and accurate.
Yan Min stopped the football easily with his chest.
Then he took the football forward and attacked.
After Spain's defensive focus has shifted to his side, he also encountered strong defensive resistance. If he wants to go forward, it is not impossible, but the success rate is low and the risk is high.
Before, he might take this risk and kill a path.
But now he doesn't have to do this at all, Zhou Yi is on the court!
When he took the ball to the front, after passing the ball, he rushed past.
Now when he meets resistance, Zhou Yi just runs to a place not far away.
So Yan Min stopped the football and passed it to Zhou Yi.
Facing the ball from Yan Min, Zhou Yi did not stop the ball, but directly rubbed the football with the outside of the right foot.
The football flies up, draws an arc in the air, bypasses the Spanish defense line, and appears in the right rib of the penalty area.
"Good shot! Zhou Yi's wonderful pass!"
Wu Lei appeared in the air ~EbookFREE.me~ He didn't stop the ball, but chose a direct volley!
Of course, this ball was played high by him...
"Wu Lei! Playing high! But it doesn't matter, this idea is right, the running position is also very good, the last one is also a good choice. If you stop and shoot again, it may be posted by the Spanish defender and lost The opportunity to shoot...it is important to do so, and it shows the momentum of the Chinese team!" Liu Jianhong constantly praised the Chinese players and encouraged them.
Wu Lei regretted that he could not seize this difficult opportunity. He held his head in his hands and squatted down hard to give a slap to the turf in the Spanish penalty zone.
When a player feels annoyed and sorry for not grasping such a difficult opportunity, it actually shows that his self-confidence has increased.
In such an important game of the World Cup, self-confidence is very important.
