As the Chinese Super League gradually comes to an end, the competition for league rankings is becoming more and more fierce.

With the last four rounds of the league remaining, the Guangzhou team extended the lead to seven points with this draw in the 26th round, and the Jiangsu team unfortunately lost by one goal away in this round, basically losing the championship.

But the battle for the top three in the league is completely white-hot, the two Shanghai teams and the Jiangsu team are very hopeful, and they are also determined to win, after all, no one wants to miss the opportunity to impact the AFC Champions League, and the league's relegation is also very miserable.

Under the maneuver of the Football Association, after the 26th round, the league was suspended for three weeks to make way for the national team's World Cup qualifiers, which is not easy for the club to make such concessions during the critical period of the league.

The prosperity of the Chinese Super League has had a huge positive impact on the improvement of Chinese football, but it has also caused a lot of problems for the national team, such as injuries and fatigue.

In the 26th round of the league, the left back of the Guangzhou team Li Xuepeng was injured, plus Jiang Zhipeng, who was already injured, the team's left back really did not have many people to use, and what made Gao Han even more headache was that the number one goalkeeper Zeng Cheng was injured, and he was destined to miss the next two key games of the national team, which made the coaching staff sigh.

Zeng Cheng's stability has been very clear in the past few games, and in the absence of injuries, he is the team's main goalkeeper, but now he is destined to miss the remaining games, and the coaching staff will have to reconsider who will take over the position.

Zeng Cheng, Wang Dalei, Yan Junling, these are the three goalkeepers that Gao Han must recruit in the past few training camps, it can be said that Pedro Harrow is very familiar with them, among which Yan Junling is the youngest, but the characteristics are closer to Zeng Cheng, Wang Dalei is short, but full of passion, and his reaction speed is also fast, but there will be some mistakes from time to time.

Judging from the current stage, the two goalkeepers have their own strengths, and the main goalkeepers of the national team in the next few games will definitely be born from between them.

As for the last goalkeeper spot, Gao Han gave Chi Wenyi, this goalkeeper has performed well in the Chinese Super League this season, and the call for him is very high, and Gao Han also plans to recruit him for inspection, but he is only 1.83 meters tall, which is indeed a very unfavorable factor for the goalkeeper position.

In addition to the players in the domestic league, Gao Han also specially recruited five overseas international players this time, namely Zhang Yuning, who just scored a brace in Ajax, and Wang Lei, Zhao Jun, Gao Ren and Yang Xin, who played in the second team of China City in the West B League.

Among them, Gao Ren and Yang Xin are both re-entering the team, and Chi Wenyi is selected for the first time.

In the case of Zhang Yuning's outstanding performance, domestic fans and media are also full of expectations for Wang Lei and Zhao Jun, who play for the second team of China City and have played for the first team many times this season.

It's just that when Gao Han returned to Beijing from Europe and rushed to Wuhan non-stop, he was paying attention to the domestic public opinion environment throughout the way, whether it was the traditional media or the voices on the Internet, he heard it.

But it made him even more worried.

…………

…………

"So optimistic!"

As soon as Gao Hanfu arrived in Wuhan, he immediately convened a meeting of the entire team of the national team, including the coaching staff, team leader and press officer.

As soon as everyone arrived, Gao Han said with a solemn face.

"The public opinion on the outside is too optimistic right now, they simply lack the least importance or even respect for our opponents, and the two consecutive victories against South Korea and Iran have changed the mentality of many of us, which is not a good sign. ”

Gao Han's words made everyone present feel his anger.

What is the level of Chinese football, I'm afraid many people have forgotten.

Half a year ago, this team was still struggling for the last ticket to the top 12, and almost did everything they could, and finally managed to get this ticket and squeeze into the top 12.

Yes, winning South Korea and beating Iran is indeed very commendable, and it is indeed two victories that have boosted the morale of the team, making a good start for the round of 12, but what does this mean?

These two games are fought by everyone in the national football team with blood and sweat, how many players are almost out of strength in the end, and how many players are supported by gritting their teeth?

"The media deliberately confuses the concept, and many fans are misled by them, we can win South Korea and Iran, but it is only in a specific game, but this does not mean that we can compete with Iran and South Korea, and in the same way, winning South Korea and Iran does not mean that we are stronger than Syria and Uzbekistan. ”

"Why do you think we're sure we're going to win? Why are you just guessing over there how many goals we're going to win? Have you forgotten that South Korea was a precedent of being paralyzed before the game and then being defeated by us in the end? Are we going to repeat the mistakes of the South Korean team a month ago?"

Everyone present was silent.

In fact, the public opinion environment outside is indeed a little too optimistic.

To put it bluntly, with China's current strength, even if it is coached by Gao Han, there is not much certainty in playing South Korea, and it can only be fought one game at a time, and it is definitely at a disadvantage in terms of strength.

However, the media confused the concept and confused the defeat of South Korea in a single game with the overall strength of South Korea, causing many fans to mistakenly think that since even South Korea can be beaten, then what about Syria, which is in turmoil with civil war?

But as everyone knows, these are two games, two different things.

"This is a culture that has to be put to death on the first day of the international team, and I will never allow anyone to ruin the atmosphere of preparation for the national team, no matter who he is. Gao Han said in the end, his eyes were already full of killing intent.

This is to make an example of a hundred, if you don't know each other, just try.

I have to say that Gao Han is the world's top marshal, and the prestige established by his outstanding achievements over the years broke out at this time, which was still very imposing, which shocked everyone present and was very shocked.

After standing up, Gao Han also exhaled heavily.

"Guys, we've all been working together for half a year, and I believe you all know what the situation is at the moment. ”

"The Chinese Super League is coming to an end, all the players' bodies are in a very tired state, injuries, illnesses, and some are not in ideal condition, in this case, what we need to do is to try to give the international players a relaxed preparation environment, adjust their state as soon as possible, and play their own level steadily. ”

"But if, in this case, we are misled and influenced by external public opinion, and overly optimistic emotions will inevitably lead to the international players carrying the pressure of winning on the field, I believe everyone knows what the result will be. ”

Gao Han's explanation, everyone present suddenly realized.

Isn't it?

Everyone knows how fragile the psychology of the national football team is.

Even in the past six months or so, the team has slowly built up self-confidence through one victory after another, but it is difficult to guarantee that it will not collapse again due to pressure, and such cases are not uncommon in the past few decades of the national football team.

Many people keep saying that the Chinese team is old and lost the chain at the critical moment, why?

Half a year ago, the national team even struggled to play Bhutan in the round of 12, so why?

Could it be that all this is due to a lack of strength?

Not necessarily, I'm afraid

In the final analysis, it's all because the body and mind are under too much pressure, which is like a person fighting with shackles, so naturally there is only a place to be slaughtered.

With the victories in the past few games, coupled with the glorious record in the past, Gao Han has successfully established a high prestige within the national team, and today is another burst of radish sticks, and everyone present must also cheer up and start to take seriously the various problems raised by Gao Han.

Especially during the next national team training camp, the mentality and atmosphere of the international players.

"I agree with Mr. Gao's statement, we don't have enough strength to look down on Syria and Uzbekistan, and even if we are a little careless, it is likely to accidentally capsize, resulting in the good situation that we have worked so hard to win in the first few games, and it will be ruined, so we must take it seriously. Team leader Li Tie spoke in support.

He is more cautious and meticulous by nature, and he is a coach, so of course he can understand Gao Han's worries.

Sometimes what a team is most afraid of is that people are disheartened, as long as it is scattered, the team will not be able to take it.

Gao Han nodded at Li Tie, and then looked at everyone, "Immediately convey my request, during the training camp in Wuhan and Xi'an, no one is allowed to be interviewed by media reporters without my permission, and all media reporters are prohibited from entering the national team training camp." ”

"The news team should pay attention," Gao Han looked at the two press officers of the national team, "Even if it is a routine press interview and press conference arranged by the national team, all the international players and staff must be cautious in their interviews, and media reporters should not be given a chance to take advantage of it." ”

Everyone understands that Gao Han wants to guard against this group of media reporters like a thief.

Of course, this is also a helpless thing.

Many media reporters are not unable to understand the intentions and situation of the national team, and it is not that they do not understand these, but it is difficult to guarantee that other media will not take the opportunity to mess around.

In the final analysis, it was a few grains of rat droppings that spoiled the steamer porridge.

The national team has no ability to distinguish who is rat poop, so naturally it can only kill a boatload of people with one shot.

This is not a wise way to protect oneself.

"As a result, I am afraid that there will be a lot of media dissatisfaction in China, but they have always been talking about press freedom......"

Before the press officer could finish speaking, Gao Han waved his hand and interrupted him, preventing him from continuing.

"There is a limit to the freedom of the press, in my territory, how much freedom they have, I have the final say, if they want to cover the news, then they have to follow our rules, otherwise, I will let them get nothing. ”

really got to the end, even if it was to ban the media, Gao Han did not hesitate to do it.

Everyone present also deeply felt Gao Han's determination at this moment, and his purpose was only one, that is, to create the best and most relaxed preparation and competition environment for the international players as much as possible, and he had to clear everything that was not conducive to preparation and competition.

Even at the expense of standing on the opposite side of all the media.

Gao Han also noticed the faces of the two press officers, and knew that it would not be easy for them to deal with, after all, they would have to deal with the media in the future, thought about it, nodded and said: "In this case, there will be a press conference tomorrow, and I will tell them in person." ”

Gao Han's rules and bottom line are like this, whoever supports and who opposes it will draw the way.

"Also, Xiao Mu, tomorrow when the international players return to the team, there will be an internal meeting. ”
