Chapter 1063: Zhang Shujie and Lewandowski
Poland was held to a draw by Senegal, which was not a big upset, and the qualification situation for Group H became less clear. Of course, the unbeaten Chinese team and Poland are still one of the favorites, but Colombia also has a lot of possibilities, if Colombia can beat Senegal in the third round, and the Chinese team and Poland have played a large score difference, then Colombia has the possibility of breaking out of the encirclement. Only Senegal, after losing 0:5 to the Chinese team in the first round, made their goal difference fall behind by a large margin, and there is only a theoretical possibility left to qualify, and even this theoretical possibility has become very small.
In fact, the Chinese team itself does not care about the results of Poland and Senegal, because no matter what they play, as long as they ensure that they do not lose in the final round of the group stage, then there will be no suspense about qualifying from the group. It's just that the draw between these two teams will make the pressure on the Chinese team a little less, and there is a better chance of competing for the top spot in the group.
******************
In the gym, almost all the national football players are inside, and since the training has not officially started, the players will move first to maintain their physical activity.
There are two gyms that players can go to during the World Cup, one in the hotel and the other at the designated training ground. They were in the gym at the training ground.
Zhang Shujie walked slowly on the treadmill, Yan Tao was doing tentry training, and the other team members were also practicing by themselves, and there was basically not much communication. This seems to be the characteristic of many professional players, when they are in the gym, they are all busy, and only when they are free, everyone will talk a few words.
Zhang Shujie turned off the treadmill and went down to drink some water, intending to rest for a while. He wasn't sweating much, but his body was already a little hot. That's what he wants, he doesn't need to be too tired, he just needs the movement cells in his body to be active.
Li Mu also walked over and sat down beside him, Zhang Shujie saw that he was sweating a lot, and asked, "Have you exercised vigorously?"
Li Mu opened a bottle of water, drank it as he spoke, and said, "No." ”
"Then why do you sweat so much?"
"Turned up the frequency of the treadmill. As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Shujie and said, "You shouldn't have stood on the treadmill for twenty minutes, right?"
"I walked slowly, I didn't sweat much. ”
Li Mu nodded, and the two were silent for a while, and then Li did not suddenly say: "In yesterday's game, I always felt that something was not right. ”
'There were so many things that were wrong, four posts, a valid goal that was blown off and a penalty that should have been given but not given. ”
"How likely do you think this is going to happen in the same game?"
"It was my first experience. ”
Li Mu was about to speak, when he heard a voice floating over: "It's not just you, I think all of us here are." ”
The two turned their heads to look and saw Ma Junqiang coming over, and he said: "Yesterday you attacked in front, and I have been wondering at the last side, this God treats us like this? Looking through the history of the World Cup, there are few teams that are as unlucky as we were yesterday, right?"
Zhang Shujie and Li Mu laughed, Zhang Shujie said: "Luck is really bad, fortunately with Chen Zihua's goal, otherwise our task in the third round will be very difficult." As he spoke, Zhang Shujie glanced at Chen Zihua in the distance, the core of the Chinese team's midfield, who was doing pull-ups. In the past few seasons, Chen Zihua's physical fitness has improved a lot compared to before, and his confrontation has also strengthened a lot.
Ma Junqiang patted Zhang Shujie, and Zhang Shujie looked back at him: "What's wrong?"
He said: "In a few days we will play Poland and you and Lewandowski will meet. ”
"So what?"
"Everyone knows about your grievances and grievances at Bayern in the past, and I also know that at that time, you were unwilling to be treated differently by Guardiola against you and Lewandowski. However, although Lewandowski is very strong, he can't compare to you. ”
Zhang Shujie smiled: "I don't know what Guardiola is thinking in his head. As for you saying that Lewandowski and I are going to meet...... After I came to AC Milan, I met Lewandowski in the Champions League, and I didn't think it was anything, it was just a game. ”
"That's different. That was at club and now in the national team. ”
"Whether it's a club or a national team, it's all about playing, it's just that the nature of the game is different. ”
Ma Junqiang said with a smile: "Jie Zai, let me tell you, during the game, I will try my best to help you block Lewandowski and prevent him from scoring." But whether you score or not, it's up to me. ”
Zhang Shujie disagreed, and said: "I said handsome, I am not Zhang Shujie four years ago, and I don't care about the bad things with Lewandowski back then." He is a Pole and wants to defeat us, and in the same way, I, as a Chinese, will also defeat them!"
*********************
At the training ground of the Polish national team, training is about to begin, and Lewandowski has changed his clothes and is ready to walk out of the locker room.
As the captain of the Polish team, Lewandowski is the team's number one superstar, and the less than 30-year-old Lewandowski has scored 30 goals in the Bundesliga three consecutive seasons and won the top scorer in the Bundesliga three times. He has surpassed Zhang Shujie in the Bundesliga in terms of goals, but Zhang Shujie has only played three seasons in the Bundesliga with 101 goals, and Lewandowski has played in eight seasons and scored 181 goals. And Zhang Shujie also has the Champions League, and Lewandowski has never been touched by this honor, let alone the Golden Ball, World Footballer and other personal ultimate awards.
As soon as Lewandowski reached the door, head coach Navalka stopped him: "Robert. ”
Lewandowski stopped and looked back at him: "What's the matter?" ”
Nawalka walked up to him, looked at him, and said, "Tomorrow, you will have a showdown with Zhang Shujie." ”
Lewandowski was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "No, sir, it's not a duel between me and Zhang Shujie, it's a duel between us and the Chinese team." ”
Lewandowski's meaning is very obvious, this is not a personal grudge between him and Zhang Shujie, but a competition between Poland and China for the first place in the group. At this point, he and Zhang Shujie have the same attitude: the competition is coming, and the national honor is above all else!
For Lewandowski, who is about to be established, he is no longer a fledgling boy, but the leader of a national team, and since he is a leader, he should do what a leader should do. Nawalka gently pressed his shoulder and said, "Roberto, you are the best center forward I have ever seen! In my eyes, you are better than Uruguay's Suarez and Sweden's Ibrahimovic." ”
Lewandowski smiled: "Thank you." After a pause, he added, "If Mr. has nothing else to do, I'll go to the training ground first." ”
"Go ahead, I'll be over in a moment. ”
Lewandowski turned his head and left, and just after taking a few steps, he turned back and asked Navalka: "Sir, you said that I am the best center, but what about Zhang Shujie?"
Navalka smiled and did not answer, and Lewandowski did not dwell on the question, showed a smile and walked to the training ground.
Navalka looked at Lewandowski's back and whispered to himself: "Roberto, that guy is not just a center, nor is he a simple striker, he is a monster at all!"
