Chapter 475: Against the Netherlands
After the game, as teammates in the same club, Vidal and Zhang Yuan also hugged each other on the pitch after the game, but this guy was unconvinced and unwilling to be written all over his face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You're in luck!" Vidal said.
"Hmph, I'm lucky?!I'm lucky, we should get a victory today! You obviously dragged me behind my back, do you dare to admit it?!" Zhang Yuan snorted and chirped.
"I'm pulling you, but that's normal, isn't it?!Ask yourself, don't you often encounter such things in the arena?!Besides, we wasted a lot of opportunities today!" Vidal had to fight Zhang Yuan over the mouth.
"Forget it, stop talking. One point is still good for you, this game has passed, let's think about how to beat Spain in the next game!" Zhang Yuan waved his hand and said.
Spain, a little uncomfortable at the mention of Spanish Vidal, it is true that Spain was beaten by the Dutch team, but that is Spain, since 08, they have opened a new school of world football, it is indeed a new school, maybe the first game is just a nap, and the loss cannot be found from the Chilean and Chinese teams.
Zhang Yuan and his teammates returned to the locker room and laughed, this game almost means that they have successfully completed all the tasks of this World Cup, qualified?! In the optimistic Chinese, it is just to think, Zhang Yuan blows hard in front of reporters, but deep down he has been satisfied, and the next game will relax and play well.
Coach Fu knows this, did not stop everyone's cheerful laughter in the locker room, today as Vidal said, luck is still quite there, the Chilean team's chances are not few, the Chinese team's bus tactics are not seamless, but luck is not only needed by many strong teams, but also by weak teams like the Chinese team!
The accompanying leaders began to mobilize in the locker room, first praising the players for their hard work on the field, playing at a high level and showing a good style, and then putting forward ardent expectations for everyone, everyone should not be frightened by the momentum of the Dutch team! Since we can engage Chile, we must also have the confidence to engage in the Netherlands and Spain!
Zhang Yuan's heart was full of contempt, anyway, the leader is not responsible for what he says, this is not a matter of whether he wants to or not, just say that an opponent like Chile has beaten the Chinese team only to parry, and it has to rely on set-pieces to fight back, the shortness of the Chilean players gives the Chinese team such a convenience, but the Netherlands and Spain do not have such weaknesses.
Let's talk about Medel of the Chilean team, he is not playing center back at all, but playing in the back, and I don't know what Sampaoli thinks, so he sent Medel, maybe he wanted to use Medel's difficult characteristics to deal with Zhang Yuan, but he didn't expect that Medel had no advantage at all in the high-altitude ball.
This is actually Sampaoli's carelessness, most of Zhang Yuan's goals are left and right foot goals, and there are few headers, which makes him a little careless in defending Zhang Yuan's header, and Zhang Yuan's lonely fight today also makes him more convinced that Zhang Yuan's header is destined to be useless.
But will the Netherlands and Spain still think the same way?! Definitely not! They will only pay more attention to Zhang Yuan, and life will be difficult!
Li Jun called Zhang Yuan after the game, and the other end of the phone was elated and excited, and he said to Zhang Yuan: "We decided to go out for a night of party tonight!
"Brother Jun, pay attention to safety in Brazil! The security here is not very good! Don't have accidents! If you want to celebrate, you can celebrate after returning to China!" Zhang Yuan was worried about Li Jun's safety.
"Don't worry, we are dozens of people, who dares to be rude?!" Li Jun said with a big grin.
Unfortunately, Li Jun called Zhang Yuan again the next day, damn it was robbed by a group last night, and dozens of people were robbed collectively?!
"They have guns!" Li Jun said, Zhang Yuan immediately understood, no matter how much the Brazilian police strengthen law and order, it will be chaotic enough, but fortunately, from Li Jun's description, he knows that they are not injured, which is a blessing in misfortune.
Li Jun's main purpose in calling him was to borrow some money, but there was no way, although the embassy tried to protect them, it could only provide necessary help, not money.
After this incident, Li Jun and his friends do not plan to return to China, but also plan to continue to watch the game and continue to support the Chinese team.
Hearing this, Zhang Yuan's heart was heavy, and the fans loved him! No matter what the next game is, it is bound to play well and relax his mentality.
However, the coaching staff hesitated in the tactical choice against the Dutch team, and they already knew the World Cup grouping situation and who they were going to face, but only when they really stepped on this battlefield, everyone knew that this game was not as simple as they had predicted or estimated.
Rational discussion of the results of bus tactics, in terms of results, is successful, 1:1 draw Chile, but from the process point of view, the Chinese team's bus can hardly be called a success, the problem of player ability is always an impossible to ignore the problem, the Chinese team in the bus or there is not tacit understanding, the players are not strong in defensive ability, lack of awareness of filling the position, etc., for a period of time, the bus tactics make the Chilean team have no temper, and for a certain period of time, the Chilean team can break free from the constraints of the Chinese team's bus, bringing a threat to the Chinese team.
Given the Dutch team's good form and super attacking power, no one can think that the weakened version of the Chinese team can play a good role, but the key is what to do if it is not based on defense, whether it will lose even worse.
What Coach Fu imagines is still hoping that the Chinese team will be able to attack in the second game against the Netherlands, and such an important thing as qualifying should have been considered by us, but to put it mildly, do we have such a ability, since we don't, why not play our own offensive football in a down-to-earth manner, at least this is also a plan, after all, put the bus, there is no doubt that Zhang Yuan is destined to fight alone, not the bus, at least the midfield and backfield can give Zhang Yuan some support in terms of attack.
Coach Fu believes that Zhang Yuan has these supports, may still score goals, and can also give the Chinese captain a long face, the first game has already unloaded a lot of the burden of the Chinese team, and now it should be easy to play, don't worry too much about conceding too many goals.
There is not much time left for the Chinese team, after all, the interval between the group stages is relatively short, as the captain of the team, Zhang Yuan was not only secretly asked by Fu Gui for his opinion, but also he himself listened to everyone's opinions in the team, of course, the opinions of these players are not important, the coaching staff may not pay attention to it, but they will always have their own opinions on the next game in their spare time.
Most of the players want to be able to attack, and the pressure on these players is much less now, so it's certainly not a pleasure to be at home all the time.
Zhang Yuan did not tell the coaching staff what the players thought, his views are different, in fact, it is the same under Mourinho or under Conte, he is used to listening to the coach's arrangement, everyone usually chats It doesn't matter, but the tactical arrangement should still be done by the coaching staff.
After reporting to the leader, the coaching staff of Fu Coach was determined to adopt a relatively balanced offensive and defensive posture in the game against the Netherlands.
At one o'clock in the afternoon of the 18th, Brazilian time, the match between the Chinese team and the Dutch team officially started at the Riverbank Stadium, which is located in Porto Alegre, the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, the southernmost part of Brazil.
Porto Alegre is home to two Brazilian powerhouses, one is Inter Brasil and the other is Gremio, and the Estadio d'Aegre is home to the Internacional Brasil team.
Dutch boss Louis van Gaal fielded the same line-up for the first game against Spain, with a 532 formation but in reality it was more like a 352 formation.
The starting lineup and formation sent by the Chinese team are exactly the same as the previous game, and Zhang Yuan is still a single arrow.
After the opening, the Dutch team attacked sharply, mainly Robben was too active, their midfield was escorted by the giants Blind and De Jong, and Sneijder was the playmaker, which gave them an advantage in midfield control.
