The game is over and won, but the matter of the national football team is not over yet. Temporary changes in formations, changes in the starting lineup, disrupting the original battle plan, etc., all need to be explained and explained to the leadership.

When Horton was still talking about the game at the press conference, Zhu Guanghu went to knock on the leader's door.

This pot shouldn't be carried by Horton, it should be his old Zhu.

"I was the one who encouraged everyone to do this before the game, the responsibility is on me, it wasn't Horton's idea, everyone was so excited at the time, Horton couldn't change that."

"Everybody wants to play this game."

"If we don't stand up at this time, it will have a greater impact on our mentality in the future."

"Well, I can understand how you were feeling." The leader's index finger tapped rhythmically on the table, and it seemed that he was much calmer before the game began.

The process is beautiful, the result is also beautiful, and now he can't get angry and take the risk to succeed. But this does not mean that the original intention is right, and to make a mistake is to make a mistake. Therefore, we must find responsibility when we should find responsibility, and we must also take responsibility for those who should take the blame.

"Lao Zhu,"

"Anyway, you should ask for advice first."

"Although the result is good, this breaks the rules, and someone has to stand up and take responsibility."

"That's why I'm here." Zhu Guanghu was very calm and did not explain too much. I am so happy to win against Iran, as for the Chinese team to be able to win the championship? He doesn't care, being able to win against Iran shows that this Chinese team is worth looking forward to, full of confidence, what is an Asian Games champion?

Only people who want political achievements care, such as the one in front of you. The championship is much more important than the process.

Zhu Guanghu doesn't care whether he can continue to stay in the national team, anyway, it's not his own business. He is also preparing to coach a League A club, after all, in League A, he is relatively happier than in the national team, and the pressure is not so great......

"After the Asian Games are over, the Chinese coaching staff of the national team may have some adjustments, so you have to be mentally prepared."

The victory made the news media completely climax, and they also saw the future and hope from this victory, all of which reported on the Chinese team in a positive way. And Horton is also said to be the most important person to win.

"Sports Weekly" - From 2:4 to 2:0, the Chinese team went from hell to heaven. As it turned out, the Chinese team was nowhere near as bad as everyone thought, and we were probably just missing a Horton at the time. The British used his advanced and rich football concept to condense the Chinese team into a strong team, and in the future, we don't need to have nightmares!

"Football" newspaper - the arrival of Horton + the rise of Zheng Zhi = the future of the national football team. In the face of Iran, the national football team showed enough courage and succeeded in revenge 2:0. Horton is a great deal.

The Guangzhou Daily reported in more detail.

- What kind of medicine did the Chinese team take?

- Playing five games in a row in nine days, all on hot afternoons, the intensity of the game has never been experienced by the Chinese football team in the past. Surprisingly, none of the Chinese players suffered from physical exhaustion or cramps.

In contrast, in the qualifiers of the World Cup last year, the Chinese team, which had been preparing for more than a month, played only half a good game against the Iranian team in the first game, and then lost due to physical exhaustion in the middle of the game.

Horton never does special physical training, he said that for half a month or so, he can only do tactical combination training, technical training and physical training, which is the club's business.

In the past, the national team had to do at least a week of intense physical training before each major tournament, during which the main focus was running. The theory is that the team members are not physically fit and lack practice, so they should specialize in high-intensity physical exercises. Horton asked the team to run more, and the players who didn't run actively didn't want to be skilled. He asked his players to constantly move around the field in order to always maintain a relatively compact formation; He requires forwards and defenders to actively fight and participate in defense;

He demanded that the defenders must also be involved in the attack to strengthen the attack. When it comes to running, Horton is probably the most demanding of his players.

In the past, the Chinese team was accustomed to playing defensive counterattacks, and the forwards and defenders participated in the defense less, while the defenders generally did not participate in the attack, and the players naturally ran less on the field. If you run actively, your physical fitness will improve; When there is less running, the physical strength is not enough, which reflects not the physical fitness of the athletes, but the level of the coaches, although it is the athletes who run.

Some people describe that the national team in the past was running blindly, running wherever there was a ball, people running with the ball, and players were like "headless flies" on the field, putting on a desperate posture as soon as they got on the field. The consumption of psychological tension and the needless consumption of running, the team members naturally can't last 90 minutes.

Now the national team is running a lot, but the goal is clear. With his Englishman's "machinery", Horton made clear the responsibilities of each player on the field, which are the range of their own running, and which are the areas they are responsible for. Horton asked for the ball to run with the person on the court, to let the ball roll more, not to let the person run with the ball. He asked the players to learn to control the pace of the game, and after a few strong attacks, he must let the players slow down.

Horton never gave the players a mobilization order before the game, and he also made it clear that he hoped that the rest of the Chinese team would not put pressure on the players. Before the game, he said the most "you are all the best", "play according to my requirements, you will definitely win, and if you lose, it is mine", which relieved the pressure on the players and reduced the consumption caused by tension.

Physical fitness is related to, but not exclusively about, running. Some coaches work hard to train physical players, and the physical fitness of players does not improve, and some coaches do not practice physical fitness, but the physical fitness of the players is stronger, and football actually needs to be scientific. It is impossible to cure the root cause of the disease by treating headaches and foot pain.

……

For a time, Horton was praised in the position of coach of the national team.

In an apartment building in Shenzhen, Che Fangen, a South Korean who has been coaching in Shenzhen, has been shaking his head when he sees these overwhelming reports.

"Is there no one in the Chinese media who can see it?"

"All this is not because of the head coach, but because of Zheng Zhi?"

"Without Zheng Zhi, they still can't beat the South Korean team."

Che Fangen is very sure of his judgment.

"There is also Li Weifeng provided by Shenzhen, without Li Weifeng on the left side, it is uncertain whether the Chinese team can keep an eye on Iran's attack."

"It's just Li Weifeng......"

Thinking that Li Weifeng was about to go to Frankfurt for a trial, he had a headache. He is a hundred unwilling to let Li Weifeng leave, where to find such an excellent defender.

But in private, he still supports Li Weifeng to go to Germany. As the No. 1 foreign player in the Bundesliga and the No. 1 foreign player in Asia, Che knows what it means for the players.

It's a pity that South Korea is here......

Alas!
