Vol 5 Chapter 151: afraid of what?

With the French team defeating Belgium 1-0 to advance to the Russian World Cup finals, the semifinals of the Chinese team and the English team became the penultimate game of the 2018 Russian World Cup.
Luzhniki Stadium also ushered in the penultimate game of the World Cup. On the day of the game, the already strong football atmosphere became more fanatical under the construction of Chinese fans and English fans.
Every street and alley has fans wearing Chinese team jerseys and England jerseys.
Compared with many teams' pre-match tensions, Chinese fans and English fans are much more harmonious, and there is no conflict that the organizers do not want to see.
Of course, this is also directly related to the fact that Russian local football rogues are not allowed to enter.
The fanatical game atmosphere permeates in the developed city of Moscow, and Chinese fans and English fans enjoy it.
What is interesting is that this game is very informative for Chinese domestic media, because many Chinese domestic media like to call England the European Chinese team, first because China is the birthplace of ancient football, and England is the birthplace of modern football.
In addition, there are four Football Association teams, and the number of fans is large. Every time they lose, they will be scolded by the people of the country.
Of course, the most important reason is that the two football associations often make a faint move, and then they are always black.
To return to the truth, in addition to the off-site factors being talked about by fans, this direct confrontation also attracted a lot of attention.
The Chinese team had previously defeated Portugal for the semi-finals with Tang Zheng's friendship, while England defeated Colombia and Sweden successively without being optimistic, which means that both teams played the semi-finals exceptionally.
The England Football Association announced early that the team's qualifying results were qualifying for the group and ended up in the semifinals, but at this stage of the game, it is definitely a lie to not want to advance to the finals, especially if the opponent is the Chinese team.
The Chinese team defeated Portugal to advance to the semi-finals to tie the best results of the Asian teams created by the South Korean team in the Korea-Japan World Cup. Once they defeated England, the Chinese team will set a new Asian team record in the World Cup.
It's just ... this possibility is a bit low.
As many media reports, the overall strength of the Chinese team is not as good as that of England, and it is when two main players and the head coach cannot play.
But Chinese domestic media and fans do not think so, they feel that the soldiers will win!
What about not being optimistic?
"Aoao Aoao--"
Time passed quickly. When the Chinese coach arrived at the Luzhniki Stadium, they came to the Chinese fans in advance to create a huge loud voice and create momentum for the Chinese team.
Among these lovely fans, most of them are those who have no tickets to go to the scene to watch the game.
In order to be able to see their beloved national team before the game, the passion they released was amazing.
Chinese players headed by captain Tang Zheng waved to the fans outside the glass window, thanking them for their support.
Although Yan Junling and Feng Xiaoting were unable to play in this game, the Chinese players were very careful. They believed that under the leadership of Tang Zheng, they could definitely defeat England, which was not as strong as it was.
After all, the French team, who took the lead in qualifying for the World Cup finals, only tied the Chinese team in the group stage.
More than an hour before the start of the game, CCTV 5 has access to satellite signals. Fans sitting in front of the TV waiting for the start of the game can see the Chinese team arrive at Luzhniki Stadium by bus.
Beijing Studio commentator Shao Shengyi excitedly said: "The Chinese team has arrived at the Luzhniki Stadium by bus, and it is getting closer and closer to the last World Cup semi-final of the Russian World Cup. Even if we are thousands of kilometers apart, we can feel The fanatical live atmosphere, I do n’t know if everyone here is as eager as I hope the game starts? "
Countless fans sitting in front of the TV all rolled their eyes. Isn't this nonsense?

When players from both sides of the game came to Luzhniki Stadium to warm up, the starting lineup of the two sides appeared on the FIFA official website.
The Chinese team's starting lineup has three position adjustments: goalkeeper Zeng Cheng replaced Yan Junling with a red card suspension, Deng Hanwen replaced the injured and missing Feng Xiaoting, but Deng Hanwen played right back. The original right back Zhang Linpeng served as the center defender and partner Gao Junyi The left back is still Jiang Zhipeng.
The last change is in the lower back position, Li Kui partner He Chao, three forwards Lu Liang, Tang Zheng and Wu Sanshi, Sun Jingbo top.
However, according to the Chinese team's usual style of play in this World Cup, Tang Zheng is equivalent to a fake front waist, relatively backward position, playing a 2B2 midfielder.
The formation of England sacrifice is three five two, goalkeeper Pickford, three central guards Maguire, Stones and Kyle Walker, the five midfielders are Ashley Young, Ali, Henderson, Linga De and Trippier, Harry Kane and Sterling are at the top.
British Sky commentator Andy Gray, who got the starting lineup of both sides of the game, turned his head and smiled at partner Martin Taylor: "It seems that the Chinese team is really well prepared, knowing to hoard heavy soldiers in the midfield, but I believe that a strong England can Beat any team! "
"This is not necessary!"
Martin Taylor shook his head and said: "The Chinese team's platoon formation is obviously to compete with England in the midfield for possession. Tang's position is premised on a signal of the Chinese team's offensive, don't forget ... Tang is recognized by the world Knowing is because of his terrifying offensive ability! Can score goals, can assist! "
"That being said." Andy Gray obviously disagrees with Martin Taylor: "But whether Tang has the extra mind to organize the offense must draw a big question mark. After all, the overall strength of the Chinese team is obviously weaker than England. And ... the two sides of the Chinese team are very deadly, "
Martin Taylor was at a loss for a while, because Jiang Zhipeng in the quarter-finals had obvious physical insufficiency, and Deng Hanwen on the right was inexperienced, fearing that it would be difficult to assume a big role.
The warm-up time of about forty minutes ended, and the players on both sides of the game successively walked to the player's channel and returned to their locker rooms.
"Aoao Aoao--"
The Luzhniki Stadium, which can accommodate 81,000 fans, did not reduce the decibels because the players returned to the locker room. The fans created a fanatical atmosphere under the leadership of their respective fan organizations.
He Wei, the commentator of the Yang 5 commentary on the live commentary, was amazed: "If I didn't know that it was a semi-final before the game, I would have a feeling of the final! The atmosphere on the scene was really fanatical!"
※※※
As the former assistant coach and modern manager Madaloni closed the locker door, the noise from the stadium came to an abrupt end.
Everyone's eyes are on the acting head coach Madaloni, because Lippi's suspension in this game is forbidden to enter the locker room, and the assistant coach Madaloni pre-mobilizes the mobilization.
Of course, modern technology is developed, even if Lippi can't appear in the dressing room, he can communicate with players at close range.
Madaloni, who is used to being an assistant coach, didn't know what to do, so he simply opened the tablet and placed it in front of the players.
Along with the huge shouts from the scene, Lippi sitting on the first floor of the Luzhniki Stadium appeared on the tablet screen. He first waved to the players in the locker room and then shouted in a fanatical atmosphere. "You guys, the vision in the stands is much better than the coach seats. You have to perform well. To be honest, England is not much stronger than you. Just like defeating Croatia and Portugal, the final is in sight!"
Due to limited time and too noisy scene, Lippi didn't say much, he just played the role of stabilizing the military's heart at this time, and the real stability of the military's heart had to rely on the Chinese team captain Tang Zheng.
He is the soul of the whole team.
As for the technical and tactical aspects, I told many times before the game, and the tactical aspect is also very simple, that is, defensive counterattack.
Ten minutes before the start of the game, the players on both sides of the game walked to the player's channel one after another. In addition to the substitute players directly entering the stadium, the starting players were staying in the stadium and waiting to play.
Chinese players and English players are not very familiar, but it does not affect their sympathy.
Tang Zheng and Harry Kane are the most watched players of the two teams before the game, plus they both scored six goals in five games of the World Cup, and are the most powerful competitors of the Golden Boot Award of the World Cup. .
Because so far, the second-ranked Lukaku, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Chelishev have scored four goals, and they have all been eliminated. In addition to Lukaku, there is a chance to score in the third and fourth finals. , Cristiano Ronaldo and Cherishev have been eliminated, unable to score.
In addition, Gretzman and Mbappe, who scored three goals, also had a chance, but it was very difficult for them to perform a hat trick with only one game left.
The World Cup finals are not so easy to score.
In the last five World Cups, only the 1998 World Cup in France scored three goals, which means that the Golden Boot winner of the Russian World Cup will be produced between Tang Zheng and Harry Kane.
Although Lu Liang joined Liverpool in the summer of 2017 only one season, but he had fewer opportunities to play in the first half of the season, almost started in the second half of the season, and played against the England international, while England midfielder Henderson and Lu Liang They are very good friends and they are very familiar with each other. They gestured to each other before the game that related to the national team's advancement to the World Cup final.
Not long after, Turkish referee Chakil and his referee team led both players and caddies to Luzhniki Stadium.
"Aoao Aoao--"
Suddenly, the fans on both sides of the stands uttered a loud deafening voice, adding to the enthusiasm of the wild World Cup semifinals.

"CCTV, CCTV, CCTV, the game that is being broadcast for you is the live match of the last semi-final of the 2018 World Cup in Russia and China. The team wearing red jerseys and red shorts is the England team. The left side of the broadcast screen is attacking to the right. The Chinese team wearing yellow jerseys and yellow shorts is attacking from the right side of the broadcast screen to the left ... "
Along with a long whistle by the referee Chagiel, the central 5 commentator He Wei subconsciously said the opening remarks.
The England team's attack was very direct. After the football reached Maguire's foot, a long pass was made to find the captain Harry Kane. However, Tang Zheng, who paid attention to the running position of Harry Kane, jumped high and rubbed the ball to Lu Liang.
Lu Liang picked the ball back with his right toe, and even took it off. It was too late to wait for Lingard to jump and head the ball.
Fortunately, Henderson was very focused on the game. His running shovel forced Lu Liang to control the football. The Chinese team's quick counter chance from defense to attack turned into a sideline ball.
"It's a pity!" Yang Wei's commentator He Wei remarked and sighed: "Lu Liang's pick-up is amazing, but it's a pity that his club teammate Henderson was already prepared to complete this by pre-judgment in advance Secondary defense. "
Jiang Zhipeng threw a left-side line ball, Tang Zheng squeezed his position first, to stop the ball with his left foot, slammed the ball at the moment of grabbing Lingard, and at the same time completed the turn, Ali responded quickly and rushed out with great force .
"Pretty! Awesome!"
Tang Zheng's left toe was lightly bucketed. Ali subconsciously stopped short of closing his legs. It was too late for football to pass between his legs and then bypass the other side.
Henderson made a timely defense and didn't give Tang Zheng the ball to continue to go forward ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But Tang Zheng didn't mean to take the ball anymore, he was running and lifted his right foot, long pass to find the right set Wu Sanshi on the side.
Tang Zheng passed the ball accurately and gave it comfortably, but Wu Sanshi's ball was too far away from the body and the football was released by Stones from the sideline.
"Wu Sanshi's basic skills are still a little bit worse. If the ball is for Lu Liang or Sun Jingbo, the Chinese team's attack is very likely to pose a direct threat to Pickford's goalkeeping. It's a pity."
He Wei said regretfully.
The commentary guest Xu Yang nodded his head slightly: "It's a pity, but the game has just started, the player's body has not yet fully opened, and I hope to play better in the next game time."
But in the fifth minute of the game, England took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
Lingard suddenly took the ball forward and caused He Chao to foul in front of the arc of the penalty area. Trippier, who took the free kick, scored the ball in the upper right corner of the goal. The Chinese goalkeeper Zeng Cheng made a save but failed to touch the football.
England lead the Chinese team 1: 0!
The English fans at Luzhniki Stadium are very excited, and every English fan has become extremely passionate in this atmosphere, venting his excitement.
Chinese fans were very helpless at this time, it seemed that they were affected by the backward score, and the voice made was minimized.
However, Tang Zheng, the captain of the Chinese team, was not affected. He stood in the penalty area and encouraged his teammates: "Brothers, do n’t be discouraged. Most of the goals scored by England in this World Cup are set goals. Without giving them a chance to set the ball, I think it will be a matter of time before the score is equalized! "
"The hardest times have passed. What are we afraid of now?"
After Tang Zheng's emotional incitement, the emotions of his teammates affected by the drop of ball gradually returned to normal, especially the goalkeeper Zeng Cheng.
