Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Syrian Team Not to Be Underestimated
When it comes to Syria, I believe everyone's first reaction is that it is a country that has been reduced to a pile of rubble. Anyone who pays attention to current affairs www.biquge.info knows that Syria is now about to become a mini-world war, and the world's major powers are entangled in it.
Therefore, when it comes to the Syrian team, Yan Feng's first thought is that the possible Syrians don't even know if there is a tomorrow, and there are still players to play.
A country that is in the midst of war, with countless deaths and injuries every day, many people will think that the team from such a country must not have any football strength. If that's what you think, you're wrong.
When the Chinese team played against the Syrian team for the first time in this World Preliminary Tournament, Yan Feng did have such thoughts. And now, Yan Feng didn't dare to despise them in the slightest. Although the Chinese team led by Gao Hongbo dared to lose at that time, and the current Chinese team has been able to defeat strong teams such as Iran and South Korea, Yan Feng still did not dare to relax.
The reason is that during that game, Yan Feng watched the whole game on the bench, and then found that the Chinese team at that time did not have a stronger point than the opponent against the Syrian team. On the contrary, there are many points in defense, which is not the opponent of the Syrian players at all.
There was a scene at that time, and Yan Feng still remembers it. Once Syria launched a counterattack, the Chinese team's midfielder Hao Junmin fought with the opponent for speed, not only could not catch up, but finally couldn't even foul. In the competition with their opponents, not to mention technology, most of the Chinese team is at a disadvantage in terms of physical fitness. You must know that this is still a team that is in war at home and can't even afford a ticket to the game.
Syria is definitely a tough opponent to be taken seriously.
In the following training, the atmosphere of the Chinese team was very relaxed. Since winning the South Korean and Iranian teams in a row, the entire Chinese team has strong self-confidence. At least judging from the current mood, they all think that they belong to the top few teams in Asia.
"This time against Syria, we should win by a big score, right?"
"This time, we're going to win for sure. ”
'This time, if possible, I want to score as many goals as possible, preferably with a hat-trick. To be honest, I'm already hungry for shooting boots. ”
"Winning is for sure. However, there is still a Super League game next week, and it still can't be too hard. ”
It's definitely good to play football and have confidence. I'm afraid it's too careless. During the training, many teammates showed disdain for the Syrian team, which made Yan Feng feel that he was too trusted.
Thinking of the situation encountered in the last match of La Liga, Granada vs Espanyol, Yan Feng was worried that a similar situation would occur for the Chinese team. Judging from the fact that the Chinese team has always been prone to collapse, Yan Feng does not think that he can turn defeat into victory again. At least, for the Chinese team, Yan Feng did not have the same confidence as he did for the Granada team.
"We can't be careless. The Syrian team is not a weak team. The last time we lost at home was to them. In the end, Yan Feng couldn't help but say to the Martial Arts King and the others.
"Don't worry. We're not the same anymore. The last time was an accident. Now that we have won even the Iranian team and the South Korean team, how can we lose to a team that has not even played a ball in China?" said Wu Qiu Wang nonchalantly.
It is said that since that time when he scored with his face in the national team, Wuqiu Wang has enough confidence in his shooting ability. In the Chinese Super League, the head kick is very goal-oriented. Therefore, the self-confidence of the current martial arts king is unprecedentedly strong.
"Still can't be careless. When I was in Granada, I almost lost the last game because of carelessness. Yan Feng said he didn't want that situation to happen again.
Yan Feng was right. Even if the situation of the Syrian team is not very good, we cannot be careless. The game against Syria is very important for us and we can't afford to lose. If you still have the idea of the World Cup, no matter who we face in the next three world preliminaries, we must go all out and strive not to lose. After listening to Yan Feng's words, captain Zheng Zhi also spoke.
In the national team, Zheng Zhi is still more respected by his teammates, and everyone attaches more importance to his words. The 36-year-old veteran captain with many years of experience in the national team spoke, and everyone listened to it. Wu Qiu Wang and a few other people, some underestimated players nodded one after another. "Brother Zhi is right. "Brother Zhi has spoken, everyone should pay attention to it. "We'll give it our all. ”
The captain set the tone, and everyone didn't dare to be perfunctory like that.
"Yan Feng, it's good that you can maintain a calm and serious attitude. In the future, if you come to be the captain, I will be relieved. But after seeing that everyone was serious, Zheng Zhi put his arm around Yan Feng's shoulders and said.
"Oh, I'm still early, Brother Zhi. You really don't lose being the captain, as soon as you speak, everyone listens. Yan Feng said with some envy.
"I'm optimistic about you. I'm also old and senior. Speaking of which, this World Cup is my last chance in life. I value it more than anyone else. How I hope that I can fulfill my dream of a World Cup in my life!" Zheng Zhi sighed.
In the 02 World Cup, Zheng Zhi, who was only 22 years old, was not selected for the national team. He didn't make his first selection for the national team until '04. After that, the Chinese team has not been able to enter the World Cup, and even failed to enter the top 10 after that. It was only today that he entered the top 10 matches, and he has the possibility of impacting the World Cup. Therefore, Zheng Zhi is more important than anyone else.
"Yes, Brother Zhi. We will definitely make this World Cup dream come true. Believe me, we're going to make it this time. Yan Feng said firmly.
"I believe it. This is the closest we've come in 10 years. Before that, though, we have to win the game against Syria. Zheng Zhi nodded with a smile and said.
"Hmm. Yan Feng nodded solemnly.
"Okay, let's go all in on training. ”
"Good. ”
Looking at Yan Feng, who turned around and left to start training with the ball seriously, Zheng Zhi showed a look of relief and happiness on his face. He turned his head to look at Lin Fan, who was training hard, and a smile appeared on his face: "I'm so lucky." In the last chance to hit the World Cup, you can meet these two talented talents. ”
"If I can get to the World Cup this time, my life will be perfect. ”
"If they had come along a few years ago, maybe I would have fulfilled my World Cup dream. So, this time it will be to achieve a breakthrough in grades, right? I should be able to fulfill my dream this time, right? When Lin Fan has fully grown up, then I can expect better results next time. ”
"Hehe, I seem to be a little greedy. How old will I be after this game? I guess I'll be retired by the next World Cup. Hey, I really have to look at Shu. It's great to be able to do it this time. ”
"Hehe, let's take care of the present first. Zheng Zhi himself was almost frightened by the thoughts that flashed through his mind. hurriedly gathered his mood, turned around and threw himself into the hot preparations.
