Chapter 1137: Gao Han's Strange Soldier?
"What did the Chinese team train today?"
At the hotel where the South Korean national team was staying, head coach Stillik asked his assistant coach.
This afternoon, his assistant blended in with the so-called fans and came to the outfield of the Seoul World Cup stadium to watch the Chinese team train live, which is one of their obvious advantages as a home team.
At the very least, the training ground they arranged for the Chinese team cannot be closed to the outside world, and for them, there is no secret at all.
"It's nothing, it's just some very ordinary training sessions, that is, there is a fifteen-minute open time before the game, the players are interviewed by the media, I paid attention to it, it seems that the mental state is good, and the other thing is that Hao Jun is sensitive. ”
"Hao Junmin?" Stillik knew that this player had just played an AFC Champions League match against Seoul not long ago for Lu Neng.
After Gao Han coached the Chinese national team, he only played three games in total, and the last game against Kazakhstan was a warm-up game, Gao Han disrupted and reorganized all the main lineups, obviously more to examine substitute players and young rookies, and even many core main players, including Zheng Zhi, did not play.
The real representative is the last two group games of the World Cup qualifiers, Hao Junmin is one of the few players under Gao Han who started all two games, and served as the core of the midfield, which shows that in Gao Han's mind, his status is very important.
Everyone knows that Gao Han is a head coach who attaches great importance to the midfield, and Hao Junmin and Zheng Zhi both started in the two World Cup qualifiers, so if nothing else, they are also starters in this game.
It's just that Hao Junmin has a cold now.
"I asked people to investigate, and it is true that he has had a bit of a cold since last night, and he was banned from training by Gao Han today, which is said to make him recover quickly and try to catch up with the competition the day after tomorrow. The assistant replied.
When Stillik heard this, the corners of his mouth curled.
The big battle is imminent, the main midfielder has a cold, I really don't know what Gao Han's mood is at this moment.
"What about the training, do you see any clues?" asked Stillik with concern.
"Nothing special," the assistant shook his head, "It's still some regular training sessions, but it's strange, the training time is thirty minutes longer than before, and there is no full-court group confrontation. ”
Stillik nodded slightly after hearing this, Gao Han's training is notoriously rigorous, if there is no accident, it is usually only ninety minutes, but this time it was suddenly extended by half an hour, it can be seen that it is not untargeted, it should be deliberately arranged.
As for why, I'm afraid only Gao Han and the coaching staff know, maybe to adjust the fitness and condition.
Lorenzo Buenaventura is the best in the world in this regard, and no one dares to take it lightly.
As for not arranging a group confrontation for the whole audience, it is obvious that there are South Korea's eyeliners everywhere outside, and at this time, the group confrontation may expose more things in the inadvertent details, so Gao Han simply chose not to group the confrontation.
"What disciplines did they train?" Stillik asked again.
"Uh...... There are small field groups, but I carefully studied the list of groups, and there is nothing special about it, and the other thing is that there are a lot of shooting and attacking routines, such as wide crosses, outflanking in front of goal and long-range shots from outside the box, etc., which are some of the most ordinary training. ”
After thinking about it for a while, the assistant suddenly remembered something, "Oh, by the way, there was also set-piece training, the young player named Wang Lei has a deep knowledge of free kicks, and it can be seen that he has practiced hard, and the hitting rate is very high, whether it is a direct free kick score or an indirect free kick assist, he is very level." ”
"Wang Lei. Stillik silently read the name, he knew that Wang Lei was an international player that Gao Han attached great importance to, but at the age of eighteen, he was selected for the national team again and again, and he never played the main team, but Gao Han has always been with him, and he really has to pay attention to it, it is difficult to guarantee that this will not be a miracle soldier on Gao Han's hands.
Of course, as for how and when Gao Han will use it, no one can say for sure.
"What about the front?" Stillik asked again.
"It's not fixed, Gao Lin, Zhang Yuning and Xiao Zhi are used in turns, I feel that Gao Han has not determined who will be the main force, and it is likely to see who is in good shape and who will be on it. ”
Stillic's brow furrowed, which was a bit hard to say.
In terms of form, Zhang Yuning must be better, just scored a brace in the Eredivisie, last season at Vitesse could not play, but this season to Ajax as an important rotation center forward, this role is not too wise.
But the problem with staying abroad internationals is that they travel thousands of miles back and forth, which is a very serious test for the player's psychology and state, especially for a young international player like Zhang Yuning, once it is not handled carefully, it is likely to cause him to suffer double losses in both the national team and the club.
Gao Lin is a veteran international player, how to defend him, the South Korean coaching staff has already planned it, Xiao Zhi is relatively unfamiliar, he looks like a very impactful center forward, and I believe it will not be too difficult to defend.
In this way, the two-hour training arranged by Gao Han has become unnecessary for research and spying.
But Stillik didn't dare to reassure him in any way, this time he was facing the cold.
Looking at the whole world, who doesn't know the high cold?
What head coach is not nervous and uneasy in the face of the cold?
Who dares to say that they can face the cold calmly?
In fact, Stillik himself was anxious to death, and he also knew very well that Gao Han's level was not comparable to him at all, and the only reason was that the Korean team was a lot higher than the Chinese team.
That's why he took the initiative to provoke before the game.
But now it seems that the master is the master, and everything is still progressing in an orderly manner, without being affected and disturbed by the outside world, which makes the shadow in Stillik's heart even heavier.
"What do you think will happen to Gao Han in this battle the day after tomorrow?" asked Stillik, a little uneasy.
The assistant shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Who knows? Who can guess Gao Han's thoughts?"
"And what if you're alpine?" Stillik asked again, not dying.
"If I were Gao Han...... "The assistant snorted twice and pondered for a while, "I will consider the opening attack, this is Gao Han's forte, and it is also his advantage, rushing for a while, even if it doesn't work, it will disrupt our rhythm, but ......"
"But what?"
"What is the level of the Chinese team, we all know it, the opening rush is a great consumption of physical energy, with the quality of Chinese players, may not be able to withstand such consumption, if the attack is unfavorable and fails to score, it is likely to run out of energy in the second half, even if it really scores, it may not be able to hold. ”
The physical fitness and fighting spirit of the Korean team, which is world-famous.
"But they have Buenaventura in charge. Stillik reminded.
'It's not something that can be done overnight, it requires the whole training system, and even the level of training at the club. ”
Stillik agreed with his assistant, "Then you mean, it's impossible for Gao Han to attack?"
"No, what if he's going to fight for a goal?" the assistant asked rhetorically.
The reason why Gao Han was able to win all battles was that he used his gods and ghosts with soldiers, and often had unexpected actions, and the more others thought it was unlikely, the more likely it was to happen.
Stillik let out a long sigh, and the question went back to square one.
They couldn't guess how Gao Han would fight.
"I think that instead of speculating whether Gao Han will attack, it is better for us to do our best first, stabilize our position after the opening, and not be greedy for merit, even if the opponent rushes to attack, we will not be caught off guard, but if Gao Han does not attack at the beginning, it means that he does not have enough confidence in the strength of the Chinese team, then we can take advantage of the ......."
The assistant's words reminded Stillik that no matter how Gao Han plays, as long as he puts himself in an invincible position first, it doesn't matter, even if Gao Han really has the power of ghosts and gods, can he still turn the Chinese team into magic?
"You're right. Stillik finally laughed.
He felt himself unloaded from a large stone in his heart.
But soon, his face became solemn again, "But tomorrow I still have to continue to go to the outfield to spy on their training, I want to understand Gao Han's every move, even if it is an adjustment on the training ground, I have to record them one by one." ”
"Okay, I'll go myself. The assistant cautiously agreed.
…………
…………
On the afternoon of the second day after the Chinese team arrived in Seoul, the team's training session was once again scheduled to be held in the outfield of the World Cup stadium.
Interestingly, South Korean media reporters and fans also gathered around the stadium again, the only difference is that there are many Chinese fans outside the training ground today, and they are cheering for the international players.
In a foreign country, you can hear the cheering of your compatriots, which makes the international players feel warm, and Gao Han also made an exception to allow the international players to sign and take photos of the Chinese fans who came to the scene after the training.
This initiative won thunderous applause from the audience.
Like yesterday's training session, today's training is also two hours, but the training intensity is not large, and it is still a lot of regular training items, which look common, not at all like it is from the hands of a famous handsome, and there is not even a minimum of housekeeping training items, which makes people more and more suspicious.
That's right, everyone began to believe that Gao Han deliberately did not expose the training program to outsiders, believing that he should have trained, he had already trained in Shenyang, and the training sessions after coming to Seoul were more adjustments.
This discovery can't help but make the South Korean media deeply worried, could it be that Gao Han is really hiding some strange tricks?
But after so many years of confrontation between China and South Korea, what tricks can China have?
Looking at the two training sessions, Gao Han specially practiced free kicks and corner kicks, and the set-piece skills of the teenager Wang Lei left a deep impression on people, and Zhao Jun's header grabbing skills were also amazing.
Could it be that this is Gao Han's strange soldier?
Not only did the South Korean media dig deep into the training of the Chinese team, but the coach of the South Korean national team, Stillik, and the coaching staff were also concerned about the training of the Chinese team.
Gao Han is a world famous handsome, the more he plays like this, the more Stillik suspects that Gao Han has any special arrangements, but he can't understand Gao Han's thoughts at all, and his heart always hangs in his throat, not knowing when it will fall.
Time passed slowly.
In the blink of an eye, the day of the game came.
South Korea has always arranged for people to keep an eye on the Chinese national team's every move, but this time, the Chinese team is too normal, and everything is strictly following the process.
The only surprise was that the night before the matchday, a group of South Korean fans tried to break into the Hilton hotel where the Chinese team was staying, only to almost clash with the Chinese fans outside the hotel, but fortunately the Seoul police quickly separated the two sides.
It made everyone realize that maybe it wasn't just a game.
This is a war that represents China and South Korea.
A war without gunpowder.
