Chapter 571: The first battle of the World Cup

At 9 p.m. Beijing time on June 14 (10 a.m. local time on June 14 in Brazil), An Rong took the lead in holding a pre-match press conference, and there were many reporters who came, of course, basically Chinese reporters and Greek reporters.

At the briefing, An Rong said: "Greece is not an easy team to deal with, and it has had two World Cup experiences before this. The Chinese team has only participated in the World Cup once before this year, and this is the first time for me and my team to come to the stage, I am very happy and very excited, we will take every opponent seriously, especially Greece, who will play against us first. ”

Chen Hui, as a reporter, asked: "Then please ask Coach An, I don't know what kind of tactics you will adopt to deal with Greece in the game." ”

"I don't have anything to say about it for now, but when it's time for the game, you'll know. And tactics can't be static, and every manager will make on-the-spot instructions and change tactics as the game progresses. ”

A Greek reporter asked: "Coach An, the outside world thinks that China should be stronger than Greece, because you have Mr. Golden Ball, from what I know, many Chinese journalists think, what is your opinion?"

"Football is not a mathematical formula of 1+1=2, in the 2oo4 European Championship, almost everyone thought that France, Portugal, and the Czech Republic were stronger than Greece, but it was Greece that won the championship in the end. Suffice it to say that football can't just be about performance. ”

"So, you yourself think that China is stronger than Greece on the cards?"

An Rong smiled after hearing this: "That's what you reporters meant, my team members and I have never said such things, and we will never say it in the future." ”

Chen Hui whispered to Shen Hao, who was sitting beside him, "Do you want to ask a few words?"

Shen Hao shook his head: "No, I'll ask again at the Greek conference." ”

Half an hour later, Greek coach Fernando Santos also held a press conference, and the Portuguese coach first praised the Chinese team: "To be honest, the performance of Chinese players in Europe in recent years has been impressive, and it has also made this Chinese team very strong. They're tough to play against, it's not easy to beat them, but we'll try. ”

Shen Hao stood up and took the lead in asking, "Do you have any opinions on the two forwards, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu?"

Santos said: "I don't have much opinion, I can only say that they are very good, Zhang Shujie has won the Ballon d'Or, Li Mu has also been in the top five, and none of our players have made it to the Ballon d'Or squad. But I hope you don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that we're afraid of them, we're not afraid of any team. ”

"So, you have a way to restrain them?"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you. ”

Shen Hao sat down and glanced at Chen Hui next to him, Chen Hui smiled and shook his head, meaning that he didn't want to ask any more questions.

Then several reporters asked questions, and Santos answered them one by one. The duration of the press conference was only half an hour, about ten minutes less than An Rong's briefing, and Chen Hui felt that the two head coaches, Santos and An Rong, still looked very calm, but no one knew whether they were pretending to be calm or not.

**********************

At 1 p.m. local time on June 14, Brazil, the first matchup of Group C, Colombia vs Ivory Coast, was held at the Mineiro Arena in Bellorio Horizonte. Despite the absence of Colombian striker Falcao due to injury, the South American powerhouse beat Greece 3:o thanks to goals from Almero, Gutiérrez and Rodríguez, and left Mineiro with three points of satisfaction.

The Chinese team also paid close attention to this game, An Rong organized the whole team to watch the game, and Colombia's No. 10 Rodriguez left a deep impression on the players of the Chinese team, and he was the undoubted core of the team. In the third round of the group stage, the Chinese team will compete with Colombia, and the national football defense will also face Rodriguez directly.

At 4 p.m. local time, the first round of Group C kicked off at the Castro Arena in Fortaleza, with Uruguay facing Costa Rica.

Although Suarez is absent, Uruguay still has Cavani, you must know that the combined value of the Costa Rica team is only about one-third of Cavani! It is such a fish belly team, which spent a movie to deduce the classic ** silk counterattack! The media sighed: "If you continue to play like this, Uruguay's prospects can be described as dark." ”

After these two games, the third game of the day will start at seven o'clock, and this time, it will finally be the turn of the Chinese team to play!

The match took place at the Stade de Nambuco in Recife, with an hour and a half before the start of the game, and the Chinese team had already arrived. As soon as I stepped off the bus, a large number of Chinese fans gathered around, wearing Chinese jerseys and chanting the name of every Chinese player, and their voices echoed over the stadium and never dispersed for a long time.

Zhang Shujie looked back at the fans, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. In the past, the Chinese team's record was very poor, but as long as it was an international competition, these fans always never gave up; now that the results have improved, the fans are more enthusiastic, Zhang Shujie secretly vows to help the Chinese team go as far as possible in the World Cup.

On the way from the court to the locker room, not a single Chinese player spoke, nor did the coaching staff and staff, and it was only after arriving at the locker room that An Rong said: "Change your clothes and adapt to the field!"

In the process of changing clothes, the locker room was surprisingly quiet, and only the sound of clothes and body rubbing came from the changing room in the huge locker room. An Rong stood in front of the tactical board, looking at the formation of the team on the tactical board, and was silent. Assistant teacher Song Weifeng and team leader Cao Dong stood aside and did not disturb him.

When the players changed their clothes and came out, An Rongcai said: "Old Song, you and Cao Dong take everyone to the stadium for some activities, and I will stay here alone for a while." ”

Song Weifeng nodded: "Okay." So he and Cao Dong took the players to the stadium.

When he went out, Yan Tao walked up to Zhang Shujie and asked quietly: "What's wrong with An Zhi? I haven't seen him so serious when I played in the qualifiers and the Olympics." ”

Zhang Shujie shook his head: "How would I know?"

Yan Tao thought for a while and said, "Is it going to play the World Cup, and An Zhi is starting to get nervous? No, according to my understanding, An Zhi is not a person who is so easily nervous." ”

"Okay, don't guess, Ann has his own ideas. ”

As they spoke, the two walked out of the players' tunnel, just in time to see the Greek players also exiting through another passage.
