Chapter 51: The Competition
In order to convince the old men of the Chinese Football Association, Chen Lin did not hesitate to complain: "This World Junior Championship is different from the past, it will be held in Japan at the doorstep, and I believe that many Japanese people will go to watch the game at that time." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThese children of the national junior team will be the pillars of Chinese football in the future, and they will become the big stars of the national team. “
The words made the Football Association officials sweat coldly, but there are still some people who do not give up and want to collude with players to permanently modify their accounts. In desperation, Chen Lin had to come up with a killer weapon and proposed to let the Jianlibao team and this year's national junior team have an internal competition to see who has a higher level, and who will compete in the World Junior Championships in Japan. This proposal finally convinced the officials of the Chinese Football Association, after all, as long as they are Chinese, no one wants to lose face in front of Little Japan.
On August 13, the Jianlibao team, which quietly returned to China, played an internal match with the current national youth team at the Beijing Workers' Gymnasium, and the process of the game shocked the entire Chinese Football Association.
To be honest, the strength of this national youth with future countries such as Yu Genwei, Yao Xia, Li Xiaopeng, and Song Lihui is not bad, otherwise it would not have been pinned on high hopes. Whether it is physically or technically, except for a few people such as Zhang Xiaorui and Li Liuyu, the average two to three years older than the Jianlibao team players is not at a disadvantage.
But the situation on the field is not like this at all, the national junior players are almost completely unable to attack the Jianlibao team fans within 30 meters, and the national junior players feel like flies entering the spider web as soon as they enter the Jianlibao half, and they are completely unmotivated. Jianlibao team's back line is layered, I don't know how there are so many people, like Li Xiaopeng finally made a wonderful man-ball action on the right side, past Jianlibao left forward Huang Yong, but before he could catch up with the ball, Li Tie rushed out of the oblique stab and shoveled the ball away, Li Xiaopeng almost fell, and wondered: Isn't this guy in the middle? When did the run to the right come on.
The Jianlibao team's defense line is like a locked chain, interlocking layer by layer, and there are one or two teammates ready to make up for it within ten meters of the defensive direction at any time. In the nine months that I went to Italy, maybe the physical technology has not improved significantly, but in terms of thinking, the Jianlibao team members have undergone earth-shaking changes. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, when the ability to accept new things is at its strongest, in Prato, Jianlibao players spend one-third of their day learning tactics, which includes theory and practical tactical use of the ball. Chen Lin invited several youth coaches who are not ordinary people, and the youth training value is also 17, if these people are not famous, some big clubs will rush to ask for them, Prato can barely keep them now, and they will face poaching from other clubs at any time in the future.
People's impression of Italian football is first of all definitely defensive counter-attack, Italy is rich in world-class defenders and world-class forwards; The second is the representative of Latin football, although the Italians play simple and crude defensive counter-attacking tactics, but they are always the representative of technical flow football, Italian football has never lacked beauty. But in fact, the real characteristic of Italian football is to attach importance to tactical education, Chinese coaches select football seedlings first look at the body, then look at the speed, and finally look at the technique, and the Italian coach selects young players, first of all, to see whether the mind is flexible, whether they can understand the use of tactics, in their opinion, whether they will use the brain to play the ball is the most important, followed by the technology, and finally to look at the speed, and this speed is not absolute speed, but refers to the speed, as for the body, in their opinion, it is not so crucial, Take the great defenders in Italian history as examples, like Maldini and Costacuta, who are not so physically rebellious, but they do not prevent them from becoming the best players in the world at all; The closest is the "super Pippo" in the current Prato team, how crippled Inzaghi's body can be said to be known to the world, but from the Serie A champion to the Champions League, from the World Youth Championship to the World Cup winner, from the top scorer in Serie A to the best player in the Champions League, how many people can wear so many honors?
Jianlibao team in Italy received football education is completely baptismal, at this time Chinese football is still an uncultivated fertile soil, although there are some stubborn problems in the physical training system, but it does cultivate a batch of seedlings who can put their hearts on football, unlike after the future professionalization, players are lost in money and fame, and Chinese football has truly become a football desert that everyone is tired of and everyone shouts to play. Few parents are willing to let their children play soccer anymore.
In fact, the reason why Chen Lin let the Jianlibao team learn defensive counterattack tactics is because this is the essence of Italian football and a successful tactic that has been verified through countless game practices; The second is because this set of tactics is really suitable for Chinese football. First of all, defensive counterattack is a set of tactics to defeat the strong with the weak, and the status of Chinese football in the world is needless to say, most of the time, the Chinese team is facing opponents who are stronger than themselves; Secondly, this is a set of tactics that emphasize the mind and skill over the body, in all sports, physique, strength, bounce, and explosion are not the advantages of the yellow race, the advantage of the yellow race is dexterity, is the brain, is the mastery of the subtlety of small techniques, is the kind of unyielding, indomitable tenacity, this is innate, when they are inferior to others, they must learn to develop their strengths and avoid weaknesses.
The Jianlibao team has only learned a little bit and has stunned everyone in the stands. There are not only officials of the Football Association who are here today, but also many coaches and veterans who care about football in China. There are many insiders in this, and the kind of defensive awareness and understanding of teamwork shown by the Jianlibao team have not been seen even in the senior national team.
However, the Jianlibao team not only learned to defend in Italy, but also counterattacked twice behind the defense. This year's national junior team has failed to attack many times, and gradually became impatient, many Jianlibao players are their juniors in the original sports training team, before the game they came with the mentality of guiding the little brothers, and some people even think that it is simply insulting to let the Jianlibao players who are three years younger than them compete with them. With this arrogant mentality, the national junior team became more and more anxious, and the guard line couldn't help but force up, and the whole formation was completely flattened.
In the eyes of Jianlibao players, this is simply a classic teaching material for defensive counterattacks. There is no need to do any gestures at all, Jianlibao team members completely understand by themselves. After a break in the ball, the Jianlibao players who were originally shrunk in the midfield rushed out, a series of mercury poured ground, extremely smooth passing and running cooperation, the national junior players could not touch the pass of the Jianlibao players at all, and could only passively run with the ball. And the ball has been passed three times and five times to the heart of the national junior team. I saw Zhang Xiaorui make a light change of direction after receiving the ball, and the person walked with the ball, shook the opponent's left fullback, and then swept the ball to the goal of the national junior team. The pass against the turf was flat and fast, but it was not within the range of the goalkeeper's attack, and several defenders of the national youth team hurriedly turned around to chase back, but someone had already rushed to the ground. Li Liuyu easily pushed the ball, and the goalkeeper of the national junior team could only pick up the ball in the net with a grim face.
Seeing the Jianlibao team score the national youth players were not convinced, they shouted "offside", only a group of national football coaches in the stands could see clearly, the strikers of the Jianlibao team had already judged the route of the ball, and even deliberately aimed at the position of the defenders of the national junior team before starting. One is a positive active acceleration start, and the other is a passive reflexive chase-back without psychological preparation, and it is not surprising that it is a few positions behind others. doesn't admit that his skills are not as good as others and blame others for offside, he really loses and loses, and he can't help but make these coaches in the stands shake their heads.
"Don't look at it later!" An old man in football took the initiative to stand up, and this old man's historical status even the supreme leader of the Football Association, Secretary General Wang, had to be polite with a smile.
So the whole game was supposed to be played for only half a time and it was over, which made the national junior players very dissatisfied, thinking that the Jianlibao team won the victory by a sneak attack. However, this theory obviously does not have much market, even a few Football Association officials who don't understand football see the Jianlibao team's smooth kick of the ball, almost the whole game is running non-stop offensive and defensive coordination, and compared with the national junior team is almost all standing pile passes, they can't help but say: "This kick doesn't look like the Chinese team!" “
