Chapter 384: Isn't It Just a Goal!
"Brazil is not the Brazil of four years ago, and England is not the England of the past. A true football powerhouse is not going to go back. Looking at international football, only the Chinese team can do this. ”
At the pre-game press conference, Lin Yaodong's words made most of the audience unhappy, which is too crazy.
Wu Jie's face was also a little embarrassed, why did this sound so awkward?
'West Germany and England are the European teams I know the most and vice versa and I hope both sides can play football without reservation today.
Half of Wu Jie's words are nonsense, and the other half is a typical mille-feuille.
Of course, there was a spy sent by the English, and his words fell into the ears of the England coaching staff in just ten minutes.
"Fake, this is a trap, we can't be fooled!"
When the elder Robson heard this, he immediately saw through Wu Jie's trick, and the Chinese must still be the tactics they used against Brazil today.
In that case, should they raise the formation by 10 meters?
This opinion was quickly agreed by the assistants, although the strength of the Chinese team is strong, but they are not a weak team, if they are cowardly before the battle, then how can they say that they are the birthplace of football in the future?
The British have always opposed the idea that football originated in China, even if FIFA is now starting to favor the idea that China is the "birthplace of football" and England is the "birthplace of modern football", but the Englishmen are still firmly opposed to this!
Robson Sr.'s previous conservative tactics were actually under tremendous pressure, and he probably wouldn't be pleasing to anyone who won or lost after the game.
At this time, since he saw through the style of play that the Chinese team would adopt, he still decided to only retreat the formation 10 meters back, which was already very respectful of aliens.
But if you ask Wu Jie's opinion at this time, he will mercilessly ask old Robson: Is there really any difference between 10 meters and 20 meters?
The reason why this Chinese team is respected by European and South American teams is not only because of their outstanding foot skills, but also because of the world's top three running ability, and even arrogantly said that it is the world's No. 1, which is not too arrogant.
Even if the Chinese team's physical fitness is against the German team, they may not be able to have much upper hand in 90 minutes, but as long as it drags on to extra time, they can still drag down the Germans.
This can be seen from the physical test standard of the Chinese team, if the English League players are allowed to come to the Chinese League for the physical test, then at least half of them will not be able to pass, and they are not qualified to play in the Chinese League at all.
In the last game of the Chinese team against Brazil, the Samba Army basically fell into a physical crisis in the last 20 minutes.
Wu Jie was confident that even if the score was 0:0, the final winner would definitely be the Chinese team, but the score was too disparity at that time, and the Chinese players did not take the initiative to take advantage of this advantage.
But the real killer feature of the Chinese team? The final trick at the bottom of the box? At this time, it still hasn't been taken out, and this game will not be taken out.
What the Chinese team wants to show today is the average technical ability of European teams? With the blessing of the self-discipline card, these players have honed their foot skills for five years? It's time to finally meet England, one of the European powerhouses, and it's time to show it to the world.
This ball, they are not only going to win, but the British have nothing to say!
The Chinese players are fully confident in this, especially the players in Europe who have been looking forward to this day for a long time when they see the stars who hang out in nightclubs after training.
They may be inferior in talent, and the training environment in which they were young is much worse......
But do these European players know how they spent the last five years?
Do these people know how much sweat they shed for this day?
"Diligence can make up for failure" is not just a comfort, but their talent is not too much different? At this time, it is who determines who is more diligent!
#####
An hour later, when the players of both teams came out, the "University City Olympic Stadium" dominated the majority of England fans and did not have any negative impact on the Chinese players.
This is not only because Wu Jie has given everyone cards to improve their status, but also because the Chinese players have adapted to the environment where every game is away.
Now the clarity of the live TV broadcast is not high enough, otherwise you can even see a big difference in the mental state of the players of the two teams.
The faces of the English players were very serious and solemn, and they even couldn't hide their fear when they looked at Wu Jie.
Chinese players are just the opposite? But it's not a hanging, but a gentle self-confidence in the calm and relaxed.
This kind of self-confidence is different, but it does not come out of nowhere, it is through hard self-discipline training, countless practical exercises, and especially through the accumulation of victories.
The British players are not so confident, and they may still raise their heads arrogantly in the face of other teams, but at this moment, facing Wu Jie, Chen Haonan and Lin Yaodong, their two nostrils can only be poked to the ground.
The referee of this match is from the African country of Tunisia, who is also famous in the original level of football, who made him create one of the most classic goals in the history of the World Cup with God's other hand.
Wu Jie has always believed that Maradona is only one of the "hands of God", and the other is this chief referee from Africa.
But if it is a "black whistle" of that goal, Wu Jie will definitely not believe that Tunisia will deliberately hack England, which can create hundreds of millions of pounds of tourism value for itself every year.
England has not only created a lot of economic benefits for Tunisia through tourism, but is also one of the main importers of Tunisian agricultural products and low-end manufacturing.
Argentina has no financial dealings with Tunisia, and it is impossible for the Tunisian referee to use part of the country's economic resources to exchange for a maximum of tens of thousands of pounds of black money, and it is impossible to spend this kind of money for his life.
Wu Jie now set his sights on England's starters, a team that had several of his club teammates.
England starters –
Frontcourt: Gary Lineker (91)
Midfielders: Trevor Stevens (84), Peter Reid (85), Glenn Hoddle (86), Chris Waddell (84)
Backfield: Kenny Sansom (86), Gary Stevens (86), Terry Butcher (86), Alvin Martin (84), Ference Fenwick (85)
Goalkeeper: Hilton (87)
Wu Jie didn't shake his head when he saw this, because he was secretly happy in his heart.
From the ability of this set of starters, you can see why England can't beat Argentina.
Although this group of Argentine players is not well-known, the level is not low, and the South American players of this era are still technically higher than European.
The old Robson selected this group of English players is a bit unworthy of the name, and they are still the type with excellent athletic ability, but they dare not compliment them in terms of technology, and they are really inferior to this group of Chinese players who have worked hard for five years in terms of technology.
Of course, this is also due to the absence of Brian Robson and Wilkins due to injury, and the absence of two big midfielders has further exacerbated the technical degradation of England.
Peter Reid and Glenn Hoddle, who replaced them in the middle today, are both veterans, and their physical fitness has obviously declined, but their skills cannot make up for the physical loss, which makes Wu Jie and Chen Haonan look at them like ants.
No body, no technology, take the head to fight them?
"This ...... England seem to be worse than Italy!?"
Wu Jie thought of this and looked at the young players on the England bench, of course, he knew that his younger brother at the club, John Barnes, was more suitable to start than the veteran Trevor Stevens.
But I don't know if the old Robson is because of the color of his skin, or because he doesn't trust young players, in short, England doesn't even have a black player in the start, including Barnes, who is a black man in the squad.
This has a big impact on the quality of England, and in the past two years, there have been a lot of strong black players in League One, who are more athletic and technical, and are definitely better suited to the World Cup than Waddell and Stevens, who have not yet practiced.
Wu Jie didn't even have to guess why this was the case, the elder Robson was obviously reluctant to use black players, including the media and fans in England, and they were not willing to let black players enter the national team.
So John Barnes, who is too capable, entered the squad, but he still had to sit on the bench and play a bench for Stevens, who was far inferior to him.
Originally, after the defeat in this World Cup, the elder Robson still did not favor black players, but began to Latinize the England national team.
The same is true for the top teams in League One, not only focusing more on the skill of the players, but the national team has since begun to pay attention to the skill when selecting players, which eventually led to the emergence of the 96 Golden Generation.
Wu Jie understands Robson's approach very well, and the Englishman has indeed built a national team that may be the strongest in history with only the white players of his own country.
At this time, he felt that he couldn't think about it anymore, because if he thought about it again, he would remember those helpless memories that he wanted to forget, but he couldn't forget.
But could this be the reason why African referees are unhappy with England?
Wu Jie soon felt that he was thinking too much, judging from the few penalties after the opening, this Tunisian referee seems to be really selfless, and he can really be fair and just?
"There are fools in this world!"
Lin Yaodong also feels that this kind of referee who ignores everything and makes a completely fair judgment is simply not real, and the end is often not good!
Because no matter how fair your punishment is, it may not be fair in the eyes of the fans of both teams.
On the contrary, the penalty is unfair, and it will be fair in the eyes of half of the fans.
In the 11th minute, Lin Yaodong was rushed by Terry Butcher, who stepped forward to participate in the attack, when he was defending a corner kick in the penalty area, the referee directly took out a yellow card, and the action was called a Liso!
"I'm the victim!"
Terry Butcher was furious when he saw this, because he was hit with a canton iron elbow in the chest, and the perpetrator was Lin Yaodong, who had taken the ball firmly off.
But there is nothing wrong with this decision, regardless of the reason, as long as there is physical contact with the goalkeeper in the penalty area, unless the latter is a move such as five lightning lashes in front of everyone, it must be a foul by the player who charged the goalkeeper.
Besides, people didn't see it, so what can you do?
Terry Butcher's frustration was mainly due to England's underdog after the opening kick-off, or the kind of underdog who was pressed down.
This corner was the most dangerous attacking opportunity England had created in the first ten minutes.
But on the other side, the sharpness of the Chinese team's attack is unimaginable, and their level of running, receiving, stopping the ball, and passing the ball is significantly higher than that of the English, who can hardly organize a decent attack.
This attack and defense is the best comparison, after Lin Yaodong passed the ball to Jia Xiuquan, the Chinese defender who was efficient in the Serie A club saw that no one was pressing, and he was very skillful in carrying the ball more than ten meters away, and then accurately passed the ball to Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei could feel that he was in good shape today, and when he stopped the ball, he deliberately pushed forward a little harder, and suddenly accelerated to prepare to eat Fehrence Fenwick.
Ferrens isn't very old, just 27 years old, but the style of play in League One has been more physically depleting than in any era.
There are too many League One players who have fallen before the age of 30 in this era, and Ferrence jumped up and down at the European Championship two years ago, and it has only been two years since he felt that he was slowing down at every turn.
Jiang Wei's speed is divided according to the current top, first-class end, and second-rate grades, at most it is the level of the first-class middle section.
But his breakthrough was unexpected by Ferens, and he actually directly completed the strong eating.
"Damn, can the Chinese full-backs get on the attack?"
"Is this still the Chinese border defense line that everyone has been bullied by?"
"What are the English doing? Their defense is inferior to that of the Brazilians! ”
“……”
The fans in front of the TV saw Jiang Wei running all the way with the ball for more than 30 meters, and the scene of passing the ball directly to the penalty area couldn't turn their brains, because such a shot is too rare.
However, Asian fans are familiar with this scene, and the Chinese team has not used full-backs to insert attacks to find fighters in Asian games.
Wu Jie beat Stevens and Martin in front of the penalty area at this time, and successfully ferried the ball to Chen Haonan, who was also inserted.
"Direct...... ! ”
The commentators from various countries at the scene saw that Chen Haonan did not stop the ball, and rushed up to hit the door with a heavy cannon, and they also felt that this scene was rare!
But Spanish fans don't think this scene is uncommon, Chen Haonan's long-range shot is lethal after the midfield, and he scored a long-range shot from 40 meters away in Real Madrid.
Hilton, as one of the four active goalkeepers who are about to be served by Lin Yaodong, is very good at choosing a position in front of the goal, but after all, he is old and his reaction is a little unable to keep up, so he doesn't dare to come hard with this ball, so he can only hit the ball out with both fists.
"Stop him!"
Hilton fell to the ground after sealing the ball, and when he saw Yang Shuhua grabbing the first landing point like a civet cat, he was immediately frightened and his soul flew!
At this time, Butcher, who had just rushed back, made a contribution, and he used an easy-to-eat tackle to shovel the man and the ball away in the penalty area.
Yang Shuhua fell to the ground in embarrassment, but the football did not leave the danger zone.
England's young defender Stevens is closest to football, but is a little nervous and unsure whether to kick the ball out of the box or out of bounds.
After a little hesitation, he felt like he had been hit by a mud truck, and before he fell to the ground, he only heard the collective exclamation of 60,000 England fans in the stadium!
This mud truck that hit people is of course Wu Jie, after he knocked a British defender who may like to write a diary into the air, a close-range volley made Hilton, who had just gotten up, helpless, and the football instantly hit the goal at a speed that could not be captured by the live camera!
"On the eighth goal, the aliens tied the record set by Wu Jie!"
"This ball is a foul! Stevens was like being hit by a locomotive! A red card should be given! ”
"The aliens have scored again, poor Butragueno, he should have felt the pressure of the car breaking down on the tracks, and the train was already close at hand!"
“……”
Wu Jie didn't celebrate after scoring the goal, didn't make any superfluous movements, just high-fived his teammates and ran back with a smile.
This can be said to be very face-saving for the British, of course, mainly because he has to go back to League One to play, and today he will not be celebrating after scoring a goal to stimulate the English fans.
But the goal still made him scolded by countless British fans on the scene and in front of the TV, who made him knock down Stevens with a lot of force like a foul.
The referee was soon scolded for his validity?
"You, your heart is black too!"
"Are you blind? This ball is a foul, you XXXX! ”
"I'm going to kill you, you XXXX!"
“……”
The British fans at the scene didn't have much time to scold Wu Jie, and soon collectively pointed the finger at the black referee.
But the Tunisian referee turned a deaf ear and was very decisive when awarding the penalty, because he saw very clearly that Stevens did not come into contact with the football first, and the collision between the two was normal physical contact, and it can only be said that Stevens was as fragile as a peach under the collision.
"You can start a little heavier, and the acting skills are more realistic, this referee's eyes are not good!"
Lin Yaodong and Chen Haonan pulled their teammates in front of the goal and in the front court, and secretly muttered.
Wu Jie also thinks this referee is very cute, because several of his small actions have been successful, and Yang Shuhua's fake fall also missed a free kick, this referee shouldn't really have a problem with his eyes, right?
But the Chinese team is not limited to these small tricks, they have no intention of beating England with these small tricks.
After the England restarted in frustration, the Chinese team soon began to press him.
This is actually the difference between the two teams, or the difference between the two teams.
In addition to pressing Wu Jie and Chen Haonan, the English did not have any pressure on other Chinese players, not only was their running enthusiasm not as good as the Chinese team, but the key was that they knew at a glance that they had not practiced any offensive and defensive routines.
The Chinese team's pressing came prepared, they did not grab randomly, but relied on the pressure of the overall formation, using several players to attack in a small area, and carried out organized and premeditated pressing.
This kind of defense has made it difficult for England players with rough skills at their feet to organize a threatening attack, and now they are lagging behind, and they only know how to hang diagonally on both sides after the side, but the football is either destroyed by the defenders of the Chinese team, or directly confiscated by Lin Yaodong, basically no waves can be created at all.
Lineker, as the only player in England with an ability value of 90, couldn't even touch the ball after the opening, and he is not the kind of striker who is good at dribbling, and once he loses the support of his teammates, his role becomes very limited.
The Chinese team can make England's attack on the side uncomfortable, Jiang Wei's speed is not slow, and Li Junwei has the top speed in the current team.
Although the two of them are not as good as England players in the confrontation, they can still cause a lot of interference to England's wide attack by relying on their speed with the help of their teammates.
Well, this is simply a comprehensive suppression from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside, and England is difficult to break through even the weakest side of the Chinese team, so what a fart!?
In fact, they really didn't have to play.
After the England team lost in the offensive end and conceded the goal in the 16th minute, the fear of Wu Jie in his heart became even stronger.
Originally, it was said that it would only retreat 10 meters to set up a formation, but now the overall formation involuntarily retreated 20 meters, which really piled everyone up inside and outside the penalty area to defend.
It's an ugly scene, of course, but it does make it difficult to score goals.
England, which was originally on the plane, also dealt with Argentina in this way, although the price was that its own offense basically ceased to exist, because most of the football fell at the feet of the Chinese team after it was kicked out, but it was not easy for Argentina, which had the upper hand, to score.
Now the Chinese team's goal came quickly, and the first half naturally entered the script of the Chinese team besieging England, and soon even the back line was pressed to the midfield, which was indeed the rhythm of the game.
The Englishman's only hope now is to find an opportunity in the siege to get the ball to the feet of Lineker, the only ambush up front.
But I'm sorry, although the dense defense is not easy to break, the Argentines in the original plane also used the hand of God to really open up the situation.
However, the Chinese team is different, and the Chinese team not only has several magic weapons to break through the dense defense in football, but also the most powerful one.
In the 38th minute of the first half, the second goal scored by the Chinese team did not come from a free kick, but from a corner kick.
It was not Wu Jie who scored the goal this time, nor Yang Shuhua or Ren Zhihui, but Zhen Aiguo, who is often ignored by Chinese fans!
Zhen Aiguo didn't expect to score a goal, his height of 1.83 meters is not short, and of course he has to act as a stirring stick in the penalty area when he takes a corner kick.
But I never expected that Chen Haonan's corner kick directly avoided Wu Jie, who was almost surrounded by four English players at the front point, and after the ball went around a big arc, it actually turned to Zhen Aiguo, who was standing at the back point and was unguarded.
The various heading games that have been prevalent in the Chinese team for five years have finally paid off at this moment!
Zhen Aiguo estimated that he didn't know that he was a back back who did dirty work, but in fact, after several years of header training, this ability was also at the first-class level in the 80s.
This ball was completely based on the prediction and skills he had honed in the game, and he subconsciously jumped up and pushed the ball towards the goal, everything was so easy and natural.
Hilton also focused on the other players of the Chinese team, and at this moment, in the face of Zhen Aiguo's header goal, he didn't even bother to move, and watched the football accurately drill into the dead corner of the far goal!
"I ...... I scored...... I scored??? ”
After Zhen Aiguo completed this effortless header, the whole person was directly stunned on the spot, and he couldn't believe that he had scored a goal in the World Cup for a day?
"Why are you stunned? Come and celebrate! ”
Yang Shuhua was the closest to Zhen Aiguo, and when he ran over and saw that this guy was stunned after scoring a goal, he was a little funny in his heart, secretly wondering if he just scored a goal, even if it was in the World Cup, what was the big deal?
