Chapter 1026: Departure for Russia
The training of the Chinese team is not intense, most of it is recovery training, and Li Mu, who has only recently recovered from injury, did not train with the team, but practiced alone. In addition, the four AC Milan internationals have also trained very lightly, they have just finished the Champions League, and they have played the most games of all people, and An Rong does not dare to let them work too hard.
In the first five days, the team was a simple recovery training, and on the sixth day, An Rong arranged some technical and tactical drills, and Li Mu also began to practice with his teammates at this moment.
Compared with other participating teams, An Rong is the luckiest, these players have worked together in the national team for many years, and there is no need to say much about tacit understanding, so An Rong does not need to spend any time to run in, and many things can be said to be handy. In terms of tactics, An Rong is still the same as before, preparing three sets, of which defensive counterattack is the first choice, followed by passing control, and the final high pressing is the next policy. As we all know, high pressing is very physically demanding, and An Rong will not use this tactic until he is cornered.
Other more tactical options are no longer on the list for the time being. There is no need to make too many formations in this kind of cup competition, at most seven games, not as long as the league, as long as there are no large-scale injuries, then there will not be too many variables, and if necessary, you can make some tactical adjustments in the game.
In terms of formation, 442 will always be An Rong's first choice, as for other formations, in fact, many are variants of 442. Although 442 is relatively "old", there are many changes, especially when the players' abilities are very comprehensive, it is not a problem to make three or five new formations on this basis, so An Rong does not have to worry about this aspect at all.
Since the Chinese team was placed in Group H, which is also the last group, the game was also scheduled for the last day. The first match of the Chinese team was played at 8 p.m. Beijing time on June 19 at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow. The game at this time belongs to the prime time, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of people watching the Chinese team's game that day.
The opening match of the World Cup was held at 23:00 Beijing time on June 14, against the host Russia and the Asian powerhouse Saudi Arabia, the strength of these two teams is basically half a catty, but Russia has the advantage of home and has a higher chance of winning.
Chinese media arrived in Moscow, Russia, a week ahead of schedule, and CCTV5's studio has already been set up. Now CCTV has no Huang Jianxiang, no Liu Jianhong, and even Duan Xuan is gone, but a group of young commentators represented by He Wei are enough to support CCTV. Besides, the fans are watching the game, in fact, who will explain the impact is really not very big.
The Chinese players only took a flight to Russia on June 10, and before departure, tens of thousands of fans gathered at the capital airport to see off the Chinese team. Due to the large number of people, the airport has had to deploy riot police to maintain the current continuity. Many fans unfurled banners, and one of the most eye-catching was the one that read: "Please bring the Hercules Cup back to China!"
Not only that, but there are even many fans who made a simulated Hercules Cup, they held this simulated trophy high, this group of people is very unique, they did not speak, just held this trophy, and used this silent way to tell the Chinese team, how eager everyone is to spend this time the Hercules Cup in China.
*******************
The Chinese team's bus just arrived at the airport, Zhang Shujie saw from the car window that there were all people outside, almost surrounded the road, in order to give the Chinese team the greatest convenience, the airport separately discharged a road for the Chinese team's bus to drive, even so, the situation is still very slow, because many fans rushed to the middle of the road, if not enough police, I am afraid that this scene can not be controlled.
Zhang Shujie looked out through the car window, turned around and asked Li Mu beside him: "This time the enthusiasm of the fans is even higher than the last one." ”
Li Mu nodded: "Yes." After all, a lot of people think we have what it takes to win the championship this time. ”
Zhang Shujie smiled and asked, "Is your injury really okay?"
"Rest assured, there will be absolutely no problems, and I have recovered well. ”
"But I've heard Ann say that you're still going to be conservative with you. ”
"No problem. I just listen to Ann's arrangement, even if I don't play in the first game, it doesn't matter. One Senegal, even without me, you are enough to charge alone. ”
"It's not enough if you don't play, I don't think it's going to make you play the whole game. ”
Li Mu smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay." Could it be that I'm still emotional? No, An Zhi must have his thoughts, and I will do whatever he says. ”
The two were chatting, the bus had arrived at the entrance of the waiting hall, and the team members also got off the bus one by one. The surrounding reporters couldn't help but shoot at them wildly, and there was also a burst of screams from the fans, many of whom shouted the names of their idols.
"Zhang Shujie! Zhang Shujie! He's down!"
"Li Mu! Li Mu, your injuries are all right?"
"Look! It's the Twins! They got off together!"
"Horse team! horse team! and Yan Tao! Yan Tao!"
……
Every time a Chinese player gets out of the car, the fans will have different degrees of exclamation. But generally speaking, the players don't react at this time, they have to be busy going through security to board the plane, and they don't care so much. Only Yan Tao smiled and waved to the fans.
Whenever there is such a scene, Yan Tao is the one who attracts the most attention. He's so cooperative with the media! What journalist doesn't like this kind of player?
Zhang Shujie walked in the middle of the team with sunglasses, pushed his luggage and walked straight into the waiting hall, and the other team members also walked in one after another. Zhang Shujie knew very well in his heart that these fans came here to see off the Chinese team because they could not go to Russia for various reasons, otherwise who would not want to go to watch the game on the spot for such a grand scene? Not to mention that Russia and China are neighbors, and basically everyone who can go there will go.
However, Zhang Shujie is still very grateful to them, as players, the support of fans is their biggest motivation. Of course he wants to take it, but he can't just say it, or, now is not the time to say it. He learned from Song Weifeng that An Rong had already issued a military order in front of Guo Fan to lead the Chinese team to win the top spot in this World Cup. And Guo Fan, in order to protect An Rong, never said these words publicly. He didn't even take the initiative to make any unreasonable demands on An Rong! Although Guo Fan and Zhang Shujie have not seen many times, they also know a lot. Guo Fan sat in the position of chairman of the Football Association, isn't it waiting for today?
Thinking of this, Zhang Shujie exhaled, looked up and saw that he was about to prepare for the security check.
