Chapter 351

Deco obviously didn't expect him to ask such a question, but after a moment of pause, he smiled: "I have a little question, but now that I think about it, I probably shouldn't ask you...... It's better to ask him directly. ”

Juan said, "You mean, Messi? ”

Deco nodded, smiling wryly, "I'm just a little worried about this kid...... You know. ”

Juan certainly knew that when Messi first arrived in Deportivo La Coruna, both Ronaldinho and Deco had called him privately and had sneaked here to see him, so Juan knew exactly what he wanted to say.

"But I didn't expect it...... Two Brazilians would get along so well with an Argentine. Juan shook his head and smiled, "But I can understand that."

He is also not qualified to express surprise at other people's homes, after all, when he was in Deportivo La Corunari, Messi still got along well with David Luiz and Kaka?

"Speaking of which, I just found a little reason to stimulate you to be angry, so that I could show my own background strength, but I didn't expect you kid to be fooled." Deco said casually, frowning at the same time, "In the game at the beginning of June, it is estimated that the two of us will take turns to play, and Coach Scolari will not let the two of us play together until the critical moment." ”

"I know that." Juan bowed his head, not caring about Deco's temptation to him - in fact, Deco's attitude now says something, especially during the game. At least to be able to think about using Rui Costa to squeeze him is already rare for a player like Deco.

"In the first game, I guess I will play first, and in the second half, I should rotate me down, and you will try to go up." "Of course, it doesn't rule out that you may be allowed to start, after all, the coach also said that you need a little time to get back into shape." ”

Juan bowed his head, he didn't actually know what Deco was telling him to do this...... After all, these Scolari will also talk to him.

After a pause, Deco continued, "I know you must be wondering why I'm saying this, but it's up to the two of us to coordinate this......"

Oh.

Juan knew it - it was a little test for Scolari, about the coexistence between the two of them.

In fact, in the first half of the game, Deco had already shown him what kind of power it is for two people to work together.

Most of the players on the opposite side are Portugal's main lineup, but when Juan lays the groundwork for everyone in the back, Deco up front can easily control the whole field.

Both of these are players that Portugal have been lacking, Deco is okay, there was a Rui Costa to make up for each other before, but Juan's position can really be said to be a blank space in Portugal for so many years.

There are a lot of things to do in the midfield position, and at the same time, it also requires excellent anticipation and a strong sense of the overall situation, and doing well is the core of the whole team, which can improve the team's aggression by several grades; If you don't do it well, the team's focus and itself will become less solid, which is very influential for the team.

Football is indeed an 11-a-side sport, but the presence of some good players is actually irreplaceable.

Deco had already spoken his thoughts, and Juan thought for a while before nodding in agreement: "Yes, the two of us can wait until we reach the quarterfinals or the semifinals." ”

Deco was stunned for a moment, and at the same time showed a crying and laughing expression: "The game hasn't started yet, why do you think we will definitely enter the top four or quarterfinals?" ”

Juan gave him a smile back: "We can." "Of course you can, Portugal is not weak this time, although Rui Costa is missing, but they can still win the fourth place in the World Cup with their own strength -

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the consolation prize of the top four.

Hercules Cup gold, silver and bronze medals, only the gold medalist can lift the Hercules Cup, which symbolizes the first, and the silver and bronze medals have only one medal.

As for the fourth place?

Sorry, nothing.

Although it may seem difficult for Portugal to get to that point, Juan knows that there is more to it than that.

It's a world without him, and everyone can get to that point, so what if he is there?

God, if he exists to add a little variables to this world, at least this time it will be the same as the European Cup, moving in a good direction!

So he expressed his confidence in the team in front of Deco so firmly, Deco was stunned for a moment and then nodded with a smile: "Okay." ”

Obviously, Deco thought he was confident, and the Portuguese-Brazilian personality actually didn't lack funny parts, so he quickly showed a very interested expression: "So you don't actually want to play with me?" ”

"Of course not!" Juan was stunned, "Why do you think that?" I just feel like we need a secret weapon......"

"The Portuguese team has a lot of secret weapons." Deco was speechless, "I think there is a secret weapon in the Portuguese team right now. ”

Juan smiled: "Isn't that great?" ”

Deco replied: "When the official competition is over, you will know if it is good or not......"

Juan didn't understand this sentence at first, after all, it's not good for everyone to keep a hand? But he soon understood what Deco meant.

On June 10, the group stage of the World Cup was in full swing, gilding this summer with a layer of feverish light.

Because the first game will be played in two days, although the players of the Portuguese national team have already gathered and even trained in Cologne, Germany for several days, they still want to sneak to Munich to watch the game without fear of big things.

- The opening match of the group stage of the World Cup, Germany vs. Costa Rica.

Luckily, Scolari noticed the restlessness of the young men early on, and cut off the group of people who looked like they were going out for a casual walk directly at the door of the hotel.

"I knew you were going to run." Scolari rubbed his temples, "Can't you just watch it at the hotel?" ”

"Absolutely!" The loudest person to answer was Nani, he was the youngest in the group, and he was also the most afraid of Scolari, and it was only in him that Scolari could feel the majesty of the manager for a long time.

Scolari patted him on the head and looked up at them, "I know there must be Juan's problem in it...... What about Juan others? ”

"I guess it's already out?" "He told us to go with him, and then he said he was going to meet our ...... outside."

Scolari slapped his head: "It's broken, this kid is going to run away?!" ”

"Who's going to run away?" A voice came through the doorway, and Scolari looked back to see Juan walking in from the outside.

He was also dressed in a rare casual way, dressed in casual clothes, with a ponytail combed behind his head, a peaked cap, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses very dedicatedly...... However, it was clear that his so-called disguise was actually useless, because the screams outside were constant and intensifying, and it was clear that he had already discovered who he was.

If it weren't for the security guards outside, it is estimated that Juan himself might not have been able to walk in so intact.

"Juan!" "Juan, I'm sorry......" "We've been intercepted!" Several people expressed their apologies, and Juan smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I didn't make it out either, and I was stopped at the door of the hotel." ”

Originally, he wanted to repeat his old tricks, but obviously, he in 06 was much more eye-catching than he was in 04, and in the past two years, both media reporters and fans have made great progress in reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, and it is obviously impossible for Juan to use the previous method to find out like this.

Juan also tried a lot of methods, and after being 100% sure that he would be photographed when he went out, he simply gave up and turned around directly.

As he expected, Scolari had already blocked a group of people, and it seemed that he was ready to arrest him later?

Scolari looked at him, then at the flickering magnesium light outside the glass window, "What's going on outside?" ”

"Probably a fan of the national team." Juan's answer was casual.

"......" Scolari had a "don't bluff me" expression, "the people outside are calling your name." “

"I guess it's because I just went out." Juan's face didn't change, "Since we can't get out now, how about finding a hall?" ”

"The hall is ready." Scolari sighed, "Do you think I'll not know you're going to watch the game?" ”

At this time, everyone was actually resting in the room, after all, there was still some time before the start of the game, and only Scolari had the foresight to go to the door to block people...... To be honest, if this group of cubs sneaks out to watch the game, he will have a headache!

They really looked like they were just going out for a walk, especially Juan, who was so light and easy to look at - they would be dressed very formally in any public place except on the court, so such an unusual outfit obviously showed that there was something wrong with it......

"Besides, how can you still have a ticket when you go over there now?" Scolari couldn't understand why Juan was so confident that he could go to Munich to watch the game...... You must know that there is no scalper ticket at this time, and it will be two hours at most before the game starts, and they can't catch up.

Juan replied: "Otto said he had a box and we could go and squeeze ......"

"Otto?" Scolari was stunned, "Which Otto?" ”

"The Greek one." Juan flashed a big smile at him, "Otto Rehhagel." ”

"Oh...... Oh he! Scolari instantly remembered, "You know each other well?" ”

"It's not very familiar, but we ...... I mean, Ozil of A Coruña was introduced to me by him. Juan replied with a shrug, completely ignoring the fact that he had asked for Ozil's address first.

"I see." Scolari nodded, "I'll have to be glad I stopped you over there again......"

A group of players from the Portuguese national team and the head coach of the Greek team sat in a box to watch the game? It was too beautiful for Scolari to imagine.

"I'm glad too," Juan bowed, and in Scolari's stunned gaze, he continued: "If we do run out, we probably won't be playing in a few days' time." ”

He apologized half-seriously and half-jokingly, after all, he also knew what the rules of the national team were - if he went out without permission, he would be punished, he would go out alone, and he didn't know how long his national team career would last, without any psychological burden, but those cubs were different.

"You deliberately let me get it?" Scolari was a little surprised.

Juan replied with a smile and a boo gesture and looked ahead.

Scolari followed his gaze, and the cubs in front of him were a little wilted, although not very excited, but they quickly regained their vitality and began to joke with each other.

"If you tell them the truth, they'll want to beat me up, right?" Juan narrowed his eyes and smiled, and Scolari glanced at him.

Obviously saying such things, he looked interested. But after a little thought, it will be clear that the appearance of these cubs who want to beat people but can only stare and jump their feet because of force and deterrence is indeed very interesting!

Scolari felt that it was better not to satisfy the boy's bad tastes......

The fact that they wanted to sneak out to watch the game was soon known by the bigwigs in the team, Cristiano was the most unlucky, he and Figo were in the same room, and as soon as they went back, they were scolded by the captain for a while, and they directly scolded the youngster.

The others were not having a good time, they were accused by their seniors for reasons such as "you actually wanted to go out" and "you sneaked away and didn't take me", several people were stunned, only Nani escaped - after all, he lived with Juan, didn't he?

He had never been so grateful that his roommate was Juan, especially when he had eaten a good meal, took a shower, and chatted with Juan for a while, and when he went out, he saw that everyone except him and Juan had a sad face......

Juan could certainly feel the grateful look in Nani's eyes, and he turned back to him with a smile that was self-evident - don't be afraid, I've got you covered!

Cristiano wanted to cry very much, knowing that he was the one who was taken care of in the past! As a result, a smaller Nani himself will not be able to enjoy the benefit of being covered by Juan......

Cristiano's resentment was really deep, so at the beginning of the game, he complained directly: "Germany is really shameless, and it arranged a weak team for itself at the beginning!" ”

Scolari coughed lightly.

The members of the coaching staff also had an upset throat.

The bigwigs of the national team had some unnatural expressions, and Figo even wanted to reach out and pat him on the head: "You just watch the game well, why did you suddenly talk about this?" ”

"No, isn't that so?" Cristiano's eyes widened, "Isn't the German team just trying to get off to a good start, it's too much, and it's unfair to the Costa Rican team!" ”

"Cristiano." Juan couldn't stand it anymore, "What kind of team do you think Greece is?" ”

"Greece?" Cristiano was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Juan to suddenly ask such a question, "I think it's very strong, especially in the European Cup final, if we don't surprise the people who won, they don't know who it is......"

"yes." Juan was a little seductive, "Then why do you think we chose Greece as the opening game of that European Championship?" ”

"I ...... I don't know, but didn't we win that game too? Cristiano was a little dazed.

Juan asked: "Then before the European Championship, did you think the Greek team was a strong team?" ”

Cristiano understood: "You mean, in fact, we also picked a soft persimmon as a good starter in that European Cup?" ”

"I almost capsized in the gutter and got off to a good start." Scolari was amused when he thought about the scene, "At that time, none of us knew that Greece was not such an easy team to play against. ”

Cristiano nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Will Costa Rica be the second Greece?" ”

"No, it won't." He replied very simply.

"Why?"

Juan laughed: "Not every manager is Otto the Great. ”

Rehhagel's coaching ability is indeed obvious to all, this is a manager who is good at creating miracles, and if everyone can achieve what he does, he will not be called "Otto the Great".

"And Costa Rica is not a weak team...... In other words, none of the teams that can enter the group stage are weak. Juan laughed, "And their head coach Guimaraes is not a good guy, and that's the game the DFB wants to see." ”

"What?" Nani was stunned, "Isn't the game you want to see win the game by chopping melons and vegetables?" ”

"Of course not," Juan patiently explained while the two teams had not yet played, "Generally speaking, when international competitions are held, the first game is the host's match, in this game, it is necessary to show the strength of the host, but also to give the opposing team some face, so in the arrangement of the game, it will definitely favor a strong but not so strong opponent." ”

"It means a solid win, but it doesn't look like it's such an easy win against an opponent?" Nani's eyes widened, "But isn't this a fair draw of the group?" ”

"Competitions are only as good as they come and go, and a one-sided slaughter or a dry show off is harmful." Juan tugged at the corners of his mouth, "As for the fair draw...... You guess? ”

Nani's mouth opened wide, looking like he had been struck by lightning, it seemed that Juan's words refreshed his worldview, and Juan patted him on the shoulder: "I'm sorry for breaking your wonderful world." ”

"It's okay...... Nani replied subconsciously, but he still blinked, "At least it will definitely change in the future, won't it?" ”

After a moment of silence, Juan gave him a smile back: "Yes." ”

Nani's expression relaxed, and his face, which was still full of childishness, became vibrant in an instant, and he turned his head and began to whisper about the German game with Cristiano, regardless of other people's host status.

Or are they actually complaining about the identity of this host?

"Costa Rica will not be a second Greece, is that what you think?" Scolari asked softly as he sat down next to Juan.

Juan bowed: "They are different from Greece, Greece can be said to have been firmly implementing Rehhagel's strategic indicators since the beginning of the qualifiers, while Costa Rica almost failed to participate in the World Cup, and only stumbled up after a change of coach halfway through...... If I were the German team, I would be the first to take this product. "Although the first game is to be exciting and evenly matched, the premise of everything is one word - "win".

For example, when Portugal hosted the European Championship, the opening match was almost planted on the Greek team, and the German team will naturally be much more cautious in choosing opponents.

"The hosts have found themselves a 'good' opponent." Scolari nodded in agreement, "Most of the German players play in their home leagues, but all the other teams except Bayern Munich seem to have won all the major competitions over the years, whether it's the Champions League or the Europa League. ”

After a pause, Scolari suddenly thought of something and asked: "I remember you seem to have played against Bayern Munich?" ”

"Yes." Juan became serious, "Kahn, Ram, Schweinsteiger and Balak all made a big impression on me...... They're not easy opponents to deal with, and we'll have a lot of headaches if they do. ”

Scolari nodded silently, he certainly understood what Juan meant, Portugal are confident in control and attack, but there is a world-class goalkeeper on the opposite side, as well as a good defender.

If Portugal's attack is contained, and then the opponent carries their attack and counterattacks defensively, Portugal will have a real headache here.

"At least we don't have to worry about the group stage." Scolari was very relaxed, "And even if we run into Germany, don't we still have you?" ”

"What can I do?" Juan was speechless, "Football is a sport of eleven people. ”

"But sometimes, you need heroes to influence the big picture." Scolari's eyes were full of meaning, but soon he showed a big smile, "I'm telling you quietly, it's not just you, everyone in Portugal has a hand." ”

"I know." Juan nodded, "Decaux already told me." ”

Scolari smiled, "Just wait and see." ”
