Vol 4 Chapter 252: Today's Legend (Prologue)

"My biggest concern is that everyone's adversity is insufficient, especially the underestimation of opponents."
At the national team's final preparation meeting on the last day, Tang Yaodong stood up and said seriously: "I know that many of you have also played many confrontational games, but I ask you to consider more. Of course, now I want you to immediately Improving confrontation is impossible, but at least it needs to be mentally prepared. "
Wu Jingui also said: "The last few days I watched the Swedish team's game video several times, and it gives me the feeling that the style of play is a bit like our neighbor South Korea."
At the conference table, Xu Yunlong looked up and said that no one spoke. "However, the South Korean team does not have Ibrahimovic and Larson, which are difficult for them to deal with."
"Yes, but the overall style of the game is a bit similar. They are good physical fitness, strong confrontation, rough feet. The warm-up opponent Ukraine we looked for before is still not far behind Sweden. Ali, what do you think? "
Ali Hahn, who had been holding his shoulders seriously, nodded, and translated, "The Swedish team is relatively rough from technology to tactics and is very dependent on the body, but our tactical resilience is also average, so no matter what happens during the game , I will not adjust the formation. In other words, no matter who you are in front of you, you must keep your position. Wang, Qu, your mission is very heavy, the opponent's full-back speed is not slow, But slower than you. "
When Ali Hahn said this, he raised his chin at Chen Jingang, and Chen Jingang continued: "Although I told you before, but tomorrow is the game. I don't want to put pressure on you on the spot. Our overall play is defensive counterattack. The midfield and backcourt personnel will be more dense. The forwards will often be drawn to the midfield and frontcourt to assist the defense. Our focus is on the two wingers, in the corner of the Swede formation. When we launch the attack, our midfielders need to be on time A precise mid-length pass to both wingers. The two of you need to focus and be ready to quickly start catching the ball behind the opposing wingback, especially outside the penalty area. As long as you break through, you must catch Take the chance to hit the goal decisively. We will use your two speeds, the accurate midfielder split, and the uniform defense in the backcourt to win. "
This is a tactical idea that has been said several times, and the national players nodded in silence.
At this time, the leader Zhu Heyuan, who was also attending the meeting, straightened up from the back of the chair when he said nothing: "Since Coach Chen has said that I will not put pressure on you tomorrow, I will talk about this pressure today. From home According to the latest news, it is estimated that the number of viewers of this game will be no less than that of the last World Cup between us and Brazil. Why? It is not that Sweden looks better than Brazil, but we look better. Expectations are higher. We know our own problems and why we have developed tactics. Objectively speaking, this is already the best game we have worked out after learning from the lessons of the last World Cup, so I hope you Be able to stick to this style of play unless the coach temporarily asks you to change. Of course, after all, you play the game. Maybe you are more sensitive to the situation than us. At that time, you may feel that this is not good, so you are better. One point, but the vast majority of you rarely see the problem from the overall perspective. What you think is correct may only be suitable for you, not the whole team. Everyone will play according to their most comfortable style, and we will definitely lose. "
"Speaking at home, I really resolutely implemented the coaching team's tactics. The game was lost. The responsibility lies with the coaching team and me. But if you don't execute the tactics, then this responsibility is yours." Zhu Heyuan said with a sudden glance. Wang Ai, Wang Ai who saw it is inexplicable: "I didn't say anything like this four years ago. The old players here should still have an impression. The team was very disciplined at that time, and we almost said nothing. But since ..."
Speaking of this, Zhu Heyuan glanced at Wang Ai again, and there was a chuckle in the meeting room ...
"Since the captain of our national youth team has arrived, the discipline of the team has plummeted. I have no patience to say that except for the good execution of the training discipline. Of course, I must admit that you are more than the national team four years ago. Stronger and better record, so I manage you a little hard, especially I said that your captain, he always makes sense. "
Wang Ai raised his hand and surrendered: "Don't hit me."
Zhu Heyuan shook his head with a smile: "My last point is to say you, everyone pays attention. You can decide how to play on the field tomorrow. Only the three captains have the power. No one else can change the game without permission. Wang Ai is the field. The captain is responsible. Wang Ai, do you understand? "
Wang Ai nodded honestly: "Changing on the spot, winning, the team's credit, losing, Wang Ai's black pot."
In the laughter of the crowd, Zhu Heyuan pointed at Wang Ai with a smile, no matter how serious the topic, he can give you a twist.
At the end of the tactical meeting, the coaching staff announced the starting list for tomorrow: Bai Guanghai, Qu Bo; Wang Ai, Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Wu Chengying; Sun Jihai, Li Weifeng, Luo Tongliang, Zhang Yonghai; Zong Lei. According to the layout of the coaching staff, the name is 442, but since Qupola went to the side and Wang Ai formed the right and left wings, there were three people in the middle. Due to the defensive counterattack design, Zheng Zhi and Wu Chengying will Forming a double back, only one Shao Jiayi is left in front of the middle, and Bai Guanghai is in the front.
In fact, the formation was adjusted to 451, which is the first time that the Ali Haan national team has changed. It is intended to attack the opponent suddenly. As for the use of this raid in Sweden, there is no dispute between the whole team and everyone knows that the focus of the group's qualifying is in Sweden, not England. And for this new formation, the team has been running for a long time, and the focus is actually on one: double-back cooperation. In the past 442, in the case of a midfield diamond position, there was only one person at the back and there was no position competition. This time it became two people. "Crowded", we must learn to adapt.
Finally, weighing all aspects, from physical fitness to technology to the ball dealer, Wu Chengying and Zheng Zhi were selected. Zheng Zhi is comprehensive, Wu Chengying's mind is good, both of them have good physical fitness, and the confrontation is also good. In contrast, although Chen Yang and Zhao Junzhe's combination is more tacit, their antagonism is not as good as Zheng and Wu's combination. Among the remaining midfielders, Wang Ai, Yan Song and Shao Jiayi are all better offensively than defenders, and are not suitable for playing in the back. The last one, Zhao Xuri, was very suitable, playing this position all the time, but the coaching staff was a bit worried that his brain was not enough.
On June 10, this summer night was still bright. The Chinese national team arrived at the West Coast Stadium and started the first match of the second World Cup tour.
The staff smiled: "Welcome to Dortmund!"
