Chapter 562: Olympic Legend 49

readx;? Chen Feng did not play on the morning of the 19th, but he was not able to rest for long. www.biquge.info Because today's football match was held in Sanhai, just in case, he set off with the team at ten o'clock in the morning to take a plane to Sanhai.

Lunch was also eaten with my teammates at the hotel where they were staying. After that, they will have a pre-match tactical class in the hotel, and listen to the coaching staff take turns to explain and analyze the situation and tactical characteristics of the Nigerian team against tonight, as well as some targeted deployments and arrangements to be taken by their own team tonight.

It wasn't until about three o'clock in the afternoon that the pre-game tactical lesson was over, and we took the bus to the arena together.

Although they had arrived at the stadium almost three hours in advance, by the time the bus arrived, it was still crowded and several nearby streets were congested. Even when the police car cleared the road, the bus drove for almost half an hour to enter the stadium for the last few hundred meters of the road.

At the same time, the live broadcast of the game on the sports channel of the imperial court station also started almost three hours in advance, which was even more grand than the previous game. Originally, there was only one fixed guest, and there were only two temporary guests invited last time, but now there is another temporary guest invited, who is a former manager of the Chen Football Management Center, who is over 60 years old, surnamed Wang, and honored as Wang Lao.

There were originally only two people in the live broadcast room, but now it has become 5 people, which is even more lively.

"This time, our National Olympic Games can enter the top 4, in essence, it is an inevitability of the football development mechanism in recent years. Over the years, our country has been committed to establishing an effective football development mechanism, and after so many years of concerted efforts and joint efforts, it is a great achievement and progress to achieve such good results today. It is also the common goal that we football workers have been striving for, and I am very pleased to see that our country's football work can achieve such good results today. However, we must also guard against arrogance and rashness, and we must not be satisfied with arrogance. There are still deficiencies in the work, and we must discover and correct them as soon as possible, and the advantages and advantages we have shown in this Olympic Games must be preserved as much as possible and carried forward......"

Although Wang Lao is in his sixties and almost seventy years old, his spirit is still very good, he is full of energy when he speaks, his logical thinking is clear, and he speaks these words very coherently, without any breath.

It's just that his words made the other 4 people present feel a little constipated when they heard it. Fools know that the reason why Hua Guoao was able to enter the top 4 is entirely because of the super play of Chen Feng, a super player, rather than a football development mechanism. However, a retired veteran cadre was also "invited" to participate in this show, so everyone naturally didn't dare to offend, so he could only talk about it.

When Wang Lao's eloquent talk came to an end, He Wei, as the host, finally interjected, pulled the live broadcast program back on track from the "symposium", and immediately inserted a news clip about the Nigerian team.

"The Nigerian team is known as the 'African Eagles' and their players have very good physicality and are also very aggressive. They are often able to achieve excellent results with excellent physical fitness and technique. In 1996, Nigeria miraculously won the men's championship at the Atlanta Olympics by beating Brazil and Argentina in succession. Nigeria's outstanding performance in 1996 sparked the African fever in the men's football programme at the Olympic Games. In the following 2000, the Cameroon team also defeated Brazil and Spain with a difficult time and won the final honor. However, in Athens in 2004, African teams performed relatively poorly, with Mali becoming the only African team to reach the last eight.

Nigeria's performance at the Olympics was not very good either, with several outstanding players prevented from participating by the club, and despite almost beating the Netherlands in the group stage, the lack of organisation still annoyed their manager. But in any case, the Nigerian team, which came out of the group stage, is once again steadily on the road to competing for the title.

After advancing to the last four, Nigeria will face the Chinese in the semi-finals and, if they win, will face the winner between Brazil and Argentina. Advancing to the last four again, Nigeria is steadily fulfilling its promise to challenge for the title. The 1996 honour is being replicated, and it will be interesting to see if Nigeria will be able to repeat the whirlwind of Africa at the Olympics. ”

Nigeria's head coach Siahcia is very satisfied with the performance of his team in the last game and hopes that Nigeria can qualify for the final. In an interview with reporters, he said: "Today's game was very good, and we have played better and better since the start of the game, because after each game we will summarize and make arrangements for the next game. We took chances in this game and I'm proud of their performance. ”

Nigeria's semi-final opponent was Huaguo, who defeated world champions Italy to advance. In this regard, Siasia said: "We watched the game between the Chinese team and Italy, they performed well, the defense was very good, Long's super striker title is well deserved, he did a very perfect job both in attack and defense, as his opponent undoubtedly attaches great importance to him, under the leadership of Long, the Chinese team is now a strong team, but we will have countermeasures, I hope we can play this game well." ”

On the issue of the gold medal, Siathia said: "I think every team wants to win the gold medal, but it's not easy, we can just wait and see. But we did come from afar to win the championship, so we will try to beat the Chinese team to get to the final. ”

In addition, in the last game, Nigeria had players injured. "One player is out of injury and one player has a back injury, but it's not very serious and it won't affect the next game," he said. ”

The camera turned to Huaguo Guoao's side.

"The Chinese team has historically advanced to the semi-finals of the Olympic Games. This is an unprecedented good result in the history of the Chinese men's football team, and fans across the country are boiling and cheering, and this result has made countless fans proud of it compared to being shortlisted for the World Cup that year. The men's football competition has undoubtedly become the most popular game that everyone pays attention to in this Olympic Games. ”

Before the game, a reporter interviewed Forado, the head coach of the Chinese team, and for the foreign coach who was controversial and questioned at the beginning, everyone chose to praise the Chinese team for such a good result. When asked by reporters whether he was sure to win the match against Nigeria, Forado was not too modest, and nodded directly and said: "We are bound to win the next game." The strength of the Nigerian team is in their attack, and their play is inconsistent, and there is a lack of tacit understanding between them. On the other hand, we have a world-class forward led by Chen Feng on the offensive side, and we have been fully tested in several major competitions on the defensive end, and we have done a very good job. I don't think there's a reason why we should lose. ”

Regarding the question of whether Chen Feng will start tonight, Forado did not give a clear answer, but said: "It depends on the situation at the time." However, in this game, Chen Feng should have more playing time. ”

The picture turned back to the live broadcast room, and He Wei raised his head and asked: "Now everyone is more concerned about whether Chen Feng can start this time, what do you think?"

Director Zhang, as a regular guest, was of course the first to speak: "Forado also said just now that Chen Feng will be given more playing time." After all, this is already a semi-final, which is very important, and letting Chen Feng play early can lock in the overall situation early. I think Chen Feng is more likely to start this time. ”

Wang Lao said with some disagreement: "This is not necessarily. Chen Feng is important to the team, but he has other games to play. Therefore, for his usage, it is still like before, if you can not let him play, you will not let him play, so as to avoid injury and excessive consumption of his physical strength. ”

Fang Yi also chimed in: "I think so too. After all, the overall situation is important, Chen Feng will come back to the capital to participate in the track and field competition in addition to the football match tonight. It's not good to use his physical strength too much, and it's even worse if he gets injured. ”

Haodong had an opinion with Director Zhang: "Chen Feng's physical strength problem does not exist, he has experienced more intensive games before, but there is no problem at all." If there is a case, it is also afraid that he will be injured on the field. But don't choke on food. Chen Feng's personal physical fitness is very good, much better than these African players. Also, I can see that he is very smart when he plays football and tries to avoid getting injured as much as possible. Even if an opposing player deliberately fouls him, it is basically impossible with his passing speed. And this game is so important to us, I believe Chen Feng should start this time. The goal is to lock in the win as soon as possible and if there are any surprises. As long as we win this ball, we will directly qualify for the final. This has been a dream shared by generations of our fans. There is no room for error. ”

He Wei said: "I personally want Chen Feng to start this time, just like Haodong said, this game is really important for us." This is the best opportunity that God has given us for Chinese football, and we cannot afford to miss it. However, we all have to wait and see how it will be arranged. ”

……

Chen Feng himself is also inclined to start tonight, and the coaching staff is the same, after reporting to the regiment headquarters, there is still an hour before the start of the game, the regiment headquarters can be regarded as agreeing to the football team's application and letting Chen Feng start.

In this way, the starting lists of the two teams were finally announced an hour before the game. For a time, the odds of each **o/\ color company have also been greatly changed. Chen Feng, a super striker, chose to start, and basically not many people can be optimistic about the Nigerian team. Chen Feng's terrorist attack power even the Brazilian team and the Italian team were kicked into a sieve. The Nigerian team is not good at tactics and defense, and trying to defend against Chen Feng's attack is tantamount to a fool's dream.

On the contrary, the Chinese national team is determined to put up a big bus formation like in the last two games, and no matter how strong the Nigerian attack is, it will definitely not be stronger than Chen Feng.

"The starting list is out, and Chen Feng is among them as I guessed. It seems that this time our Huaguo team is indeed bound to win this ball, and there is no room for loss. And with Chen Feng's starter, I think everyone is now more optimistic about our Huaguo team. ”

"Hehe, that's true. Chen Feng's attacking power, the previous few games have fully proved his quality, basically under his super speed, the opponent's back line is not of much use to him. Nigeria, on the other hand, are a more attacking team, and the physicality of their players dictates that they are more suited to play offensively than defensively. Of course, their defense is relatively rough, which makes some of the other teams uncomfortable. But I think it's not a big deal for our Chinese team and for Chen Feng. Chen Feng's flying speed is destined not to give the other party a chance to make physical contact. Now he's starting and I think we're nine out of ten in this game. ”

Fang Yi was not embarrassed that he had guessed wrong before, but also said excitedly: "Since Chen Feng is the starter, we really don't have a reason to lose this game." It's just a matter of winning more and winning less, I think according to the number of goals scored by Chen Feng in the previous games, if he plays the whole game this time, the guarantee should be 5 goals. The difference between the two teams should be more than three goals. Our Huaguo team will definitely win by at least three goals this time. ”

Haodong said more cautiously: "Nigeria's attack is also very powerful, and we need to be more cautious on the defensive end." If necessary, Chen Feng also needs to withdraw back to actively participate in the defense. Otherwise, it is only a matter of time before the opponent shoots and scores. ”

As soon as Wang Lao heard what he said, he was a little unhappy, and frowned: "You can't say that. In fact, our defense has always been relatively good, Chen Feng is a striker, the most important thing is in attack, if he let a striker withdraw to participate in the defense, it will be a bit dereliction of duty. His main task is to attack and help the team score goals. Isn't there a saying? The best defense is offense, and as long as Chen Feng keeps attacking, it is equivalent to helping us defend in disguise. ”

As soon as Wang Lao said this, Haodong didn't refute it, but his face was a little dumbfounded. Seeing this, He Wei immediately changed the topic again.

……

When there was still half an hour before the game, Chen Feng was briefly interviewed by Li Meng. It's a routine interview, and it's a question of whether he has the confidence to help the team win.

Chen Feng's answer is, of course, yes.

"The quality of the players in the Nigerian team is generally good, they are relatively strong in strength, speed, physical flexibility and coordination, but their whole team lacks a certain amount of organization, and the cooperation is not very tacit. This is our chance, and I believe that if they slip the slightest, we can deliver the fatal blow. We won this game without much problem. (To be continued.) )
