Vol 4 Chapter 40: Pack lightly

El Salvador is the third largest city in Brazil, located in the coastal city in the northeast, and is also the capital of the state of Bahia. Perhaps not many people know that in Bahia, but mention of "Robinson Crusoe" will make people The memory is still fresh, the British writer Daniel Defoe referred to as Bahia.
"The Chinese team! The Chinese team !!! The Chinese team !!!"
When the Chinese team walked out of the domestic flight exit of El Salvador Airport, the Chinese fans who waited for a long time shouted very well.
The high-hearted Chinese players smiled and waved towards the enthusiastic fans, thanking the fans for their support.
Tang Zheng, as the biggest contributor to the Chinese team's advance to the quarterfinals, is naturally the most popular. Even if Tang Zheng wears a pair of headphones in his ears, he can clearly hear the loud voices from the fans.
For the support of fans, Tang Zheng knows how to return.
The Netherlands is certainly strong, but it can be put together.
Losing is reasonable, and winning is unexpected.
The Brazil World Cup 1/8 finals continued in 2014. In the two 1/8 finals of the day, France defeated Nigeria with Pogba's goal and Yobo's own goal 2-0, and the German team beat Algeria 2-1.
The remaining two 1/8 finals took place on the second day. The first match between Argentina and Switzerland stood at a tie in ninety minutes. At the end of overtime, Argentina scored with Messi assisting Di Maria to score a goal to kill Switzerland.
Belgium beat the United States 2-1 and became the last team to advance to the quarterfinals.
The eight 1/8 finals are all over, and the quota is settled, and the promotion teams are Brazil, Colombia, the Netherlands, China, France, Germany, Switzerland and Belgium.
The first four quarter-finals began in Brazil at 1 pm local time on July 4th. The two sides were France and Germany.
After four hours, the Brazilian team will face the challenge of Colombia at Castelao Stadium.
The quarter-final of the Chinese team and the Dutch team is the latest kick-off match of the four 1/4 finals, which is played at 5:00 pm on July 5 local time in Brazil at the new water source stadium.
The Chinese team and the Dutch team had a confrontation in history, but that game had no reference value, because the first confrontation was in 1996.
The Dutch team arrived in El Salvador later than the Chinese team, but this has little effect on the Dutch team. Their overall strength is strong. Media concerned about the World Cup know that the Dutch team has basically advanced to the semifinals of this World Cup.
Of course, it's not that the Dutch team doesn't pay attention to the opponent of the Chinese team, but that the preparation period requires a relaxed environment and a good mood.
In particular, the Dutch star Robben can be described as very fearful. Robben, who has a strong voice in the Dutch national team, often instills Tang Zheng with his teammates in the idea of ​​super strength, because he is afraid of the appearance of the match against Dortmund in Bayern Munich.
Since Tang Zheng played for Dortmund for four years, Bayern Munich have failed to beat Dortmund in various competitions, and even even a few games are flat, so they have a deep memory.
The media preparing to follow the Dutch team is easy to find that Robben ’s training in the past few days is not a contact with his famous stunt, but a cross from the left and right.
It is not difficult to find that Robben is afraid of Tang Zheng as a defensive midfielder.
There is a saying that is right. Once bitten by a snake, I was afraid of a well rope for ten years.
The Chinese team's battle is directly affordable. The Netherlands is the team with the most goals in the quarterfinals. The offensive ability is quite amazing. The Chinese team, which does not already possess strength, should do a defensive job.
Coupled with the captain Zheng Zhi's cumulative yellow card suspension, even if Feng Xiaoting lifted the ban and returned to the starting lineup, it could not make up for Zheng Zhi's vacancy.
In the face of the powerful Dutch team, Italian coach Lippi naturally prioritized defense, but which player partner Tang Zheng played double backs became the biggest headache for Lippi's coaching team.
Wu Xi's ability is relatively comprehensive, capable of attacking and defending well, and there is also a certain degree of attacking ability. However, the shortcomings of attacking and defending are equally obvious. His defensive ability is definitely not as good as a professional defensive midfielder.
Cai Huikang is superior in defensive ability and good in physical fitness, but his movement speed is slow, and he does not have any offensive ability. He can only do transition work, which means that Tang Zheng, who is a defensive midfielder, will assume more responsibility for the game.
In this way, sacrifice offensive becomes inevitable.
※※※
Time passed very quickly, and in a blink of an eye came the first match day of the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. The old rivals of Germany and France will have a focus battle at Maracana Stadium.
The two teams have fought 25 times in history. France has the upper hand with 11 wins, 6 draws and 8 losses, but scored one less goal than Germany. There have been three confrontations in the World Cup, namely the 1958 World Cup in Sweden, the 1982 World Cup in Spain and 1986 The World Cup in Mexico, but because of its age, it has no reference value.
The most recent record came from last February when the French team lost to Germany 1-2 at home.
It was Valbuena who helped the French team to score, and Thomas Muller and Hedira who helped the German team to score.
Due to time constraints, the Chinese team had to perform proper strength recovery training in the hotel where they stayed, and then went to the new water source stadium to adapt to the venue, so Tang Zheng had no time to watch the game live.
In the 90-minute battle, the German team defeated the French team 1-0 with the header of Tang Zheng's teammate Humels in Dortmund.
In the quarter-finals of Brazil and Colombia, Tang Zheng also had no time to pay attention, because the Chinese team's adaptation time was exactly 4:30 local time in Brazil.
"Aoao"
When the Chinese team just took the bus and parked at the designated parking place outside the Xinshuiyuan Stadium, the Chinese fans who had been waiting for trouble had a great cheer.
The adaptation of the Dutch national team to the venue was announced as early as half an hour ago. Except for the captain Van Persie who went with the coach Van Gaal to the stadium press conference hall to attend the pre-match regular press conference, the other players were led by assistant coach Old Blind The team took the bus and prepared to return to the hotel.
The sudden outcry caused a lot of attention from the Dutch players and looked up.
A red and yellow bus converging into a train stopped not far away, and there was a five-star red flag on the windshield of the bus.
Dutch players know that this is their opponent China team at Xinshuiyuan Stadium tomorrow.
For the Chinese team, the Dutch players are not in the eyes.
They think that the reason why the Chinese team can enter the quarterfinals is completely luck.
The group stage match can only be said to be superb. The first group d faced in the 1/8 final was not the traditional strong team Uruguay, Italy or England, but the super dark horse Costa Rica.
The duel between the two dark horses was just that the Chinese team happened to win the game.
Robben has been instilling in his teammates that Tang Zheng is very strong, but professional football players are a group of energetic people, who like to compete and win, and never easily agree that others are stronger than themselves, not to mention that football is a team sport.
No matter how strong Tang Zheng is, can he be better than a team?
And this feeling, only Robben really felt it, other teammates can not feel the same.
Van Persie and Huntelaar also have a record of confrontation with Tang Zheng, but because of their location, they rarely contact Tang Zheng directly, so they feel less than Robben.
Tang Zheng is the well-deserved first star of the Chinese team, he naturally walked behind the team.
"You are in a very good state today, can you score in tomorrow's game?" Sneijder talked to Robben while walking, but found that Robben stopped at the same place, looking at the Chinese team in the direction of the bus, and reached out in Robben. He shook his eyes twice: "Alger, eh?"
This is how Robben reacted, with a reluctant smile on his face: "Hurry up and keep up with everyone."
Not to mention, he did not give his friend Sneider the opportunity to speak again, went straight to the team bus, and then handed over to the fans who were surrounded by security personnel.
Sneijder watched Robben shake his head and smiled bitterly. Robben's training status today is quite hot, even better than the first group win in Spain, but after seeing Tang Zheng, Robben's mental state seems to have dropped significantly.
Sneijder hasn't had a direct phone meeting with Tang Zheng, but Tang Zheng, as one of the hottest football stars in the world today, is close to Sneijder. How much will be compared by good media.
The two tenths of the World Cup quarter-finals of the Netherlands and China were compared by a large number of media, and there was no suspense. The media believe that Tang Zheng's ability is far better than Sneijder.
This is why Tang Zheng can play in Real Madrid, but Sneijder wanted to transfer in Real Madrid.
There is no comparison between people, because without comparison, there is no harm.
Sneijder didn't care much about media comparisons. He had his own characteristics, and the two were irrelevant.
However, his friend Robben was so influenced by Tang Zheng that he had to face Tang Zheng squarely.
Could it be ... Tang Zheng is really as strong as Al Jie said?
Is it too mysterious?
※※※
The Chinese team adapted to the venue for about an hour and a half before the game. The first half hour was open training and took photos for the media.
It was only the last hour that the Chinese team practiced the game tactics. During this period, it was closed.
It didn't take long for the one and a half hour pre-match adaptation to the venue to end, and he led Tang Zheng to the press conference hall of Xinshuiyuan Stadium for a regular press conference.
Due to captain Zheng Zhi's accumulated yellow card suspension, the regular press conference before the game must bring a player who will start the game tomorrow night, Lippi think about it or bring the star Tang Zheng.
First of all, Tang Zheng has a very rich experience in domestic and foreign media reporters, then the 1/4 finals starting tomorrow will be played by Zheng Zheng as the captain of the Chinese team, both for Tang Zheng and for the Chinese team, it is very important of.
In fact, as the captain of the Chinese team ’s World Cup quarter-finals, Tang Zheng has long known that the media is not surprised that Tang Zheng becomes the captain of the Chinese team ’s quarter-finals, because Tang Zheng has a higher voice as the national team captain. The captain's Zheng Zhi is the reason for seniority.
The second captain announced by the press officer of the Chinese team is also Tang Zheng, so Tang Zheng is deserved to serve as captain when captain Zheng Zhi accumulates a yellow card suspension.
The content of the questions in the regular press conference before the game is very simple, nothing more than the confidence and outlook of the game.
The strength gap between the two teams, most of the Chinese players have the psychological preparation for elimination, but then again, Tang Zheng as the captain of the regular press conference before the game will naturally not grow others' ambition to extinguish his prestige. At this stage of the game, no one is retreating, even if the overall strength is indeed not as good as the powerful Dutch team, but it does not mean that we will lose! I believe my teammates, because they are the best! "
Tang Zheng ’s official media interview with Brazil ’s World Cup responded to the national language, so in addition to Chinese domestic media being able to learn the first time, other foreign media need to be translated to know the specific meaning.
Tang Zheng was deliberately interviewed by the media in Mandarin, even if he knew a lot of languages, but he represented the national team in the World Cup and used Mandarin in Mandarin.
Is English the universal language?
That doesn't exist!
Through the translation, the foreign media finally knew that Tang Zheng specifically expressed his meaning, but Tang Zheng's speech was very structured and could not be refuted.
In the other quarter-finals that took place later, the Brazilian team finally defeated Colombia 2-1. It is worth mentioning that Hames Rodriguez scored again, which means that his World Cup goals were finally fixed In seven balls.
Tang Zheng, Mueller, Messi and Neymar, currently ranked second in the scorer list, are all four goals, which is three goals away from Hames Rodriguez's seven goals.
It is very likely that Tang Zheng ’s number of goals can no longer be increased, because the Netherlands team has a strong overall strength and is the most powerful opponent encountered by the Chinese team in this World Cup ~ EbookFREE.me ~ No time to attack.
The German team took the lead in the semi-finals. Mueller has at least two games, but scoring three goals in two games is very difficult.
If Messi can lead Argentina into the semi-finals, it is not impossible to score three goals in three games, it can only be said that the chance is not great.
There are no weak players in the World Cup, especially in the quarterfinals, and Argentina's quarter-final opponent Belgium is not weak. It is difficult to determine whether it can win.
Roll call?
The suspense is a bit big.
Neymar was replaced after being injured in the quarter-finals. I don't know if he can come back in time for the semi-finals against the German team. The goal is even more difficult to say.
Can't play the game, how can a goal be scored?
Throughout the last ten World Cups, scoring seven goals was only impossible to get the golden boots in the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan. The other nine World Cups can win the golden boots, which means that the quarter-finals scored a penalty Metz Rodriguez is very likely to win the Golden Boot of this World Cup.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the Chinese team, but Tang Zheng returned to the hotel to watch the latest World Cup news.
That night, Tang Zheng and team leader Zheng Zhi were very close, and they caught up with each other, holding another 21 teammates to a meeting in the hotel to unify their thoughts before the game.
Tomorrow at 5 o'clock in the quarter-finals with the Dutch team at the new water source stadium, Tang Zheng and Zheng Zhi hope that teammates can put aside all the distractions, play lightly, and focus entirely on future games.
Even if you lose in the end, at least you have fought!
The next day, head coach Lippi and his coaching team discovered that the player's mental appearance changed a lot from his imagination.
If this mental outlook can be brought to the game, even if the game cannot be won in the end, the Dutch team must be choked!
