10. High-intensity warm-up matches

After the game, Li Yun also came to see Zhang Sheng, this time he met with all the players of the team, and he performed well in the game, and became the envy of the players of the Longteng team. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Li Yun said generously to these juniors in the team: "Welcome everyone to Europe, I am now half a landlord, if there is anything to find me, I will not let it." ”

Zhang Sheng immediately raised his foot and gave Li Yun a gentle look: "Yo he! Yes, you can now! You came to me to demonstrate, right? Why? I can't take good care of them when I come to Europe, and I still need you to be a landlord?"

Li Yun also pretended to jump away and said: "Where, where? Isn't it that I am happy to see that so many brothers have come, no matter how much is in Europe, where is there happiness with brothers in China." ”

Zhang Sheng saw the expression on Li Yun's oily old face, and he could only smile helplessly, willing to communicate, sociable, this is Li Yun's natural ability, to have today's position in Europe, not to mention how successful he is, but at least it is rare to be able to gain a firm foothold.

Of course, the main reason is that Li Yun's ability is enough.

From the information that can be observed in the system--Li Yun's current potential value is still 103 has not changed, but the ability value has come to a figure of nearly 97, and it can be said that Li Yun has almost reached his highest height.

As a 22-year-old central defender, Li Yun still has a very long career path, and more things are the accumulation and application of experience.

After returning to the hotel, when the players were relaxing with the help of physiotherapists and masseurs, Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff began to summarize the game after a hurried meal.

At this time, Gu Qi and Huang Linjia, who are game analysts and video analysts, became the protagonists.

The two of them returned to the hotel one step ahead of the game after the game, and had already started the analysis and editing of the game video, and by the time Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff returned to the hotel with the players, the preliminary work of the two of them had been completed.

In the post-game analysis meeting, Zhang Sheng got rid of the black history of relying on his own notebook to recall the game process, and the video edited by professionals was more comprehensive and careful.

Just summarized the loopholes in the game, everyone listed dozens of them, which shows the efficiency and ability of the two of them.

When the players were rested and entered the dream, Zhang Sheng was still negotiating with the members of the coaching staff on how to make up for the loopholes exposed in training the next day.

After the start of the next day's training, Zhang Sheng arranged for the team to conduct a day of tactical drills according to the training plan made the night before.

On the third day, the Dragons began to play warm-up matches again, this time the team was looking for a warm-up opponent in the fourth division of Spanish football, which is commonly known as the team of the Spanish League C, and the goal of the Dragons in this game was very clear, that is, to find a team to practice the various new tactical patches that were trained yesterday.

La C is the first tier of the Spanish domestic regional league, with 18 groups ranging from 20 to 22 teams each. On top of La C, there is La B B, which has 4 groups of 20 teams each, and above is La B, and at the top is the famous La Liga, oh no, La Liga.

Even in the warm-up with this fourth-tier league, Zhang Sheng could see the tactical ability of this team, because their overall tactics were very good, and the movement of the players was very coordinated.

Under the efforts of the Dragons, the opponent resisted for more than 30 minutes before conceding the goal, which shows the foundation of Spanish domestic football.

Of course, the difference in strength became more and more obvious as the game progressed, and before the end of the first half, the Longteng team led 2:0.

At the start of the second half, the Dragons, who began to make a lot of substitutions, weakened slightly in attack, but the players still scored a goal, and the game ended 3-0.

The Longteng team that ended the game allowed the players to score goals, but also brought a lot of confidence to the players.

After that, the warm-up process of the Longteng team in Europe was basically spent like this, looking for a strong team to find its various weaknesses, the next thing is to make some targeted improvements through training, and finally find a team with a slightly weaker strength to test their tactical results.

After more than a week of warm-ups, the Longteng team gradually became familiar with the new tactics, and Zhang Sheng began to arrange more stronger teams to play warm-up games.

The first high-intensity warm-up team arranged by Zhang Sheng was Xu Mingyu's Sporting Lisbon B team.

In this warm-up game, Zhang Sheng discharged his strongest lineup, in the first half, the two teams played inseparable, and at the end of the first half, both sides ended with a score of 0:0.

In the second half of the game, the Longteng team was basically on the defensive, and until the 70th minute of the game, the Longteng team held the game.

However, after replacing several young players one after another, the overall strength of the Longteng team has dropped very much, but the substitute strength of the Sporting Lisbon B team is far stronger than the Longteng team, and in the last ten minutes, the Longteng team conceded three goals in a row.

The final score was also fixed at 0:3, and the Longteng team once again learned the strength of the strong team.

After the match with Sporting Lisbon B, Zhang Sheng took the team to participate in the match with Porto B.

The strength of the Porto B team is stronger than that of the Sporting Lisbon B team, but the tactical run-in of the Longteng team is also constantly improving, and the players in this game are more skilled in cooperation, and the Longteng team and the opponent in the first half are 1:1, and in the second half, the Longteng team is even more than the score. However, the players of the Porto B team were clearly stimulated by the scoreline, and when they saw the unscrupulous manager on the sidelines, they showed a desperate spirit to participate in the game, and they were a step ahead of them soon after the equaliser.

After that, the two sides began to make a large number of substitutions, and Lin Feng also made his first appearance after nearly 4 months of absence, and it was obvious from his performance in the game that he was very adaptable to the current tactics.

Although in the end, the Longteng team conceded two goals again, only recovered one goal, and ended the game with a score of 3:5. But Zhang Sheng is already very satisfied, and it is difficult to play with the team that is now ranked fourth in the Portuguese League, which proves that the team's current run-in has achieved certain results.

After playing against Porto B, the Dragons still have a few last warm-up opponents, but they are also the strongest.

The first to be encountered is Leicester City. As a promotion horse in the Premier League this season, Leicester City have played very poorly in history, and they are still in last place in the Premier League after the halfway point of the season, and some people even think that they have a relegation place in them.

But that has changed now, as the team has changed a lot with the arrival of N'Golo Kante and Riyad Mahrez, with manager Nigel Pearson, who was very unhappy with the signing, sacked in a dispute with his boss and replaced him by the historic "tinkerer" Lajelli.

Rakelli took over from the position of head coach of the Greek national team, and of course, his takeover this time was also very disgraceful, because Rakelli was fired by the Greek Football Federation.

The reason for the dismissal was simple - Greece suffered a shock 0-1 defeat to the Faroe Islands in the European Championship qualifiers.

This defeat shocked the whole country of Greece at the same time, but also made the Greek Football Association have to shake the pot, their Football Association president threw the pot beautifully, directly said that this is a disastrous record, the national team has suffered a huge loss, the responsibility lies with the head coach.

As a matter of course, he was dismissed.

However, after leaving in November, Raksli immediately arrived at Leicester City, more than half a year earlier than in history.

Coming to Leicester City, Lasli slashed at the position of the midfielder with the first knife, Kante successfully ascended and squeezed out the former famous player Cambiaso, of course, this is also related to the contradiction between Lapinli and Cambiaso, and the contradiction goes back to the history of Lapini in the 2011-2012 season when he coached at Inter Milan.

Anyway, the arrival of Lajelli completely changed Leicester's results, and they are now far better than they have ever been – 10th in the league.

In this warm-up game, the Dragons really saw what it means to be a Premier League-like confrontation.

The small size of the Dragons players was completely inferior to Leicester's players, and even the familiar Riyad Mahrez and N'Golo Kante seemed to be a different person, and their ability to fight against them has improved dramatically.

Riyad Mahrez and N'Golo Kante praised their former clubs before the game, so in the first half, the Leicester players were eager to test their words, and when they showed their 100 per cent form, the Dragons understood the gap between themselves and the Premier League side.

After more than half an hour of hard defending, Mahrez's attack broke the deadlock and the Dragons fell behind.

However, soon the Longteng team took advantage of Leicester City's slightly relaxed mentality to quickly equalize the score, the goal was Pato, the assist was Ben Alfa, and it was Tao Wentao who initiated the attack, this goal is a perfect reflection of the Longteng team's rapid transfer tactics in the midfield.

The Dragons then held the score 1-1 until the end of the first half, and after the start of the second half, Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy made a big splash and scored two goals in a row five minutes later to dispel the Dragons' desire to win in an upset.

After both sides began to make substitutions, the tempo of the game dropped a bit, and the Dragons pulled a goal back to end the game 2-3.

After the game, Lajli came over and talked to Zhang Sheng very graciously, originally thought that his game was a routine of the club, but he didn't expect to see a very special Chinese team, although the strength of this team is uneven, and the tactics are also imperfect in many details, but there is already a bit of a shadow in the tactics of simulating Barcelona.

Lapinli also specially left Zhang Sheng's contact information, so that he could communicate with him about various tactical issues when he was free, which can be regarded as a recognition of Zhang Sheng.

After playing against Leicester City, the Dragons started a warm-up match against Ajax after a day of rest.

Ajax have been eliminated from the Champions League this year and have now dropped to the Europa League.

However, as a team that can enter the top 16 of the Europa League, the Longteng team is still a lot weaker, in the face of Ajax's stormy attack, the Longteng team fell behind 0:2 in the first half, even if Ajax made a large number of substitutions in the second half, the score still became 7:0, the Longteng team only got a penalty kick by Ben Alpha at the last time, and then regained a little face, and the final score was 7:1, which is also the biggest difference in the score of the Longteng team in Spain for winter training so far.

After the game, Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff carefully analyzed the team's various mistakes, and finally came to the conclusion that many of the Longteng team's mistakes were the kind of oppressed mistakes.

That is to say, many mistakes and conceded goals are caused by the opponent's pressing style of play, the opponent's ability from the player, to the use of tactics, the rhythm of the game, and the intensity of the confrontation are not what the Longteng team can resist now, from this game can see the huge gap between the strong teams in Europe and Asian teams.

Of course, according to Schurrle, Zhang Sheng has no need to worry at all: "Not to mention China, there is no team in the whole of Asia that can play a game like Ajax, so at the Asian level, we don't have to worry at all, unless you want to win the Club World Cup!"

Zhang Sheng could only shake his head helplessly and said, "It's that I'm thinking too much!"

The next game was the last warm-up match for the Dragons in Europe, and it was also a match to check the results of the Dragons' winter training in Europe, against an old friend - Red Bull Salzburg.

Red Bull Salzburg is now in the midst of a transfer storm, and there are a number of teams in the Chinese Super League that have targeted Red Bull, except for those who are trying to get Qin Minghao and Ding Huaiyi back to China, and those players in Red Bull who have been watched for a long time have become everyone's targets.

Among them, their main striker Alan has been poached by Guangzhou Evergrande for 11.1 million euros, and after passing the medical examination, he went directly to the Evergrande team that trained in Spain.

However, even with the departure of a main striker like Allan, there are still a lot of masters in the Red Bull Salzburg team.

In addition to the veteran Soriano, players like Naby Keita, Sabi Zell and Massimo Bruno are also very strong, as well as talented young players like Lazzaro, and of course Qin Minghao and Ding Huaiyi are more familiar to Chinese fans.

After the start of the game, Salzburg, who had made some changes in the winter transfer window, did not play very fluidly, and the departure of Allan left them with a very good point of contact and ball in the front court.

When the opponent's tactics were more chaotic, the Dragons also played a rare beautiful game in Europe.
