"It's not scientific,"

"Asian teams have always had to play when they meet us,"

"Friendlies aside, as long as it is in a regular match, no Asian team has won, of course, except for the North Korean team in ancient times, but I was not born at that time."

In the live broadcast room of Spanish National Television Channel 6, Real Madrid legend Sanchis, who just retired at the beginning of this year, commented on the game.

"If the European team pushes hard, the Asian team can't stand it. But I look at the Chinese team today, especially their midfield, I feel very whole, the players are also very impactful, the No. 4 and No. 5, the physical condition looks very good. ”

Rarely, Sanchis is actually full of admiration for Fan Zhiyi and Li Weifeng.

"With the two of them, they are really good enough to gain a foothold in Europe. The header just now, obviously Puyol is a lot worse, Puyol wants to become a great defender, the awareness and technique are enough, but the physical fitness must continue to improve, the opponent is obviously the England defender's style of play, full of impact. ”

"I always thought that Asians didn't know how to play at all, and it looks like I have to change that opinion."

……

……

Matches resumed.

In order to equalize, Spain quickly seized the initiative in attack.

Zheng Zhi also felt some differences, this Spain team has improved a lot compared to last year's Spain, and its ball control ability has been enhanced. The players are still the same players, but their technical and tactical abilities have improved!

Undoubtedly, this is how Harvey, Albelda, Gabri and Angulo are also growing. Even Chinese players can grow through experience, but can players who have trained and played in European clubs since they were young grow? This is not possible, and the growth rate will not be slower than that of Chinese players.

Therefore, the Chinese team is gradually at a disadvantage.

Even with the domestic veteran Li Ming, Shao Jiayi and Li Yin of the Bundesliga by his side, the midfield led by Zheng Zhi is still not as strong as the midfielder of the same age as Xavi and Gabri. In the 7th minute, Xavi and Gabri hit the wall in the middle continuously, Xavi stuffed a through ball to the left in time to hit Sun Jihai behind, and even Sun Jihai, who played for Arsenal, failed to stop Angulo from passing the ball to the middle in time, but Li Weifeng was in the middle to clear before Luis Garcia in time.

Zheng Zhi wanted to seize the opportunity to play a wave of counterattacks, and the ball was distributed to Li Ming on the right side, but when the veteran Li Ming got the ball on the right side, he couldn't break through Capdevilla, and Capdevilla took advantage of Li Ming's irregular move to break the ball, and immediately played a second wave of attacks with Angulo, and finally Capdevilla sent a cross. The ball fell into the back of the Chinese team's penalty area like a meteor, and just missed Li Weifeng, allowing Tao Wei to face Tamudo alone, and Tamudo easily pressed Tao Wei's header to attack the goal!

But the ball went just wide of the right-hand post.

"In this wave of attacks, Spain played a counterattack with speed and quality, but it is a pity that Tamudo's final goal was not successful."

"The Spanish player, even the defender, also has an excellent cross footwork, Capdevilla is one, he deliberately crossed the ball to find Tamudo, just avoiding Fan Zhiyi and Li Weifeng. In this regard, our Chinese players should actually learn more, Sun Jihai has been training at Arsenal for half a year, which is a little interesting, and Tao Wei has not been able to go abroad, and I feel that there is no progress. ”

Huang Jianxiang immediately compared the fullbacks of China and Spain, as well as the fullbacks who went abroad and those who did not.

"Tao Wei is actually very good at his feet, but how can I say it's good?"

"But it's just that it's not detailed enough for domestic and foreign countries."

"We can't be short generals, we have to compare all aspects of the world with players like Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi has killed almost all of Europe last season, so he is already at the top of Europe, and we should be the same with players in other positions."

Huang Jianxiang was chatting highly, Shao Jiayi broke through the defense of La Cruz on the left side, and then sent the ball into the Spanish penalty area, but Li Jinyu and Hao Haixi did not grab the landing point.

"Hey,"

"What did I just say?"

"This is the gap, and now it can be seen that although Shao Jiayi's crossing skills are also a little worse, he dares to break through when he takes the ball to face the opponent's defense, and Li Ming didn't dare just now, it's not impossible. On the front line, although Hao Haixi went to the Championship, he didn't have many opportunities to play, and Li Jinyu only played in France for half a year the year before last, and now he is still not suitable for facing the European defense. If the two of them are in China, dare to say that they will not be able to grab the landing spot? That's why I said, we have to improve in every position. ”

The offense is not good, but the defense is awesome. Spain turned to attack from the middle, Zheng Zhi forced Xavi to rush the ball, and Li Yin accurately stuck in advance and broke the ball before Gabry, and then handed the ball to Sun Jihai who was inserted on the right side, Sun Jihai made a 45-degree diagonal pass to find Li Jinyu, Li Jinyu still couldn't fight Puyol, Puyol judged the landing point of the ball while retreating, and easily gave the ball to La Cruz.

Harvey pulled to the right to answer, and suddenly found that Zheng Zhi was trailing, which was near the middle line, Zheng Zhi had to press so tightly, Harvey was a little surprised. hurriedly slipped the ball back to his teammates, wanting to continue to pull the side to respond, but Zheng Zhi still followed.

How?

Is this on the bar with yourself?

The ball did not return to his feet, but to Angullo. Angulo saw that Xavi and Gabri were being targeted, so he simply took the ball and singled out Sun Jihai. Approaching Sun Jihai with small broken steps in a row, and then suddenly smashing the ball to accelerate! wanted to wade through Sun Jihai in one step, but he didn't expect Sun Jihai's feet to react faster than him, and at the moment when he stepped out, Sun Jihai had already turned around and steadily ate his sprint route.

Bang –

Angulo hit a wall and fell to the side of the pitch unexpectedly. But there was no foul, Sun Jihai didn't care, and after giving the ball to Fan Zhiyi, he also rushed forward. Fan Zhi immediately stuffed the ball back with a comprehension.

Sun Jihai, who got the ball again, ran wild with the ball! When Xavi came over to help defend, Sun Jihai immediately stuffed the ball diagonally to the feet of Zheng Zhi, who was diagonally inserted, and no one stared at Zheng Zhi. Zheng Zhi drove straight into the right side of the Spanish team's penalty area, and the outside of his right foot was sharpened.

Cupola!

Didn't hold the ball down.

Still, the attack drew applause from hundreds of Chinese fans in the stands.

Also including Horton in the dugout.

He clapped his palms gently, very satisfied with the transition from defense to offense.

I didn't score a goal, but I played a wonderful game.

Spanish coach Iñaki shook his head vigorously on the sidelines, and couldn't help but yell at Angullo, who had just gotten up from the turf, obviously very dissatisfied with Angullo's breakthrough just now.

Spain won the ball back, this time the ball fell at the feet of Albelda, Xavi and Gabri continued to run to open the position, continuous pass cooperation, the triangle attack came out, and soon the ball rolled to the front of the Chinese team's big penalty area, Zheng Zhi and Li Yin were in front of the penalty area, Xavi, who took the ball, shook a shot with his right foot, and then picked up the pass in the penalty area to find Tamudo, but Fan Zhiyi's card position was quite good, and he easily pushed the ball out.

But the ball still fell at the feet of Gabri, who diagonally squeezed Luis Garcia! But it was also cut off by Li Weifeng! Send an over-the-top long pass now!

"What a Great Wall!"

"Solid, although the offense is slightly inferior, but the defense is really leaky, except for Tao Wei just now did not resist Tamudo's header, and there was no chance for the Spanish players at all."

Li Weifeng's over-the-top long pass looked for Li Jinyu, but Li Jinyu lost his position again and was robbed by Puyol, and the unwilling Li Jinyu rushed up to force back the ball passed to the goalkeeper, but Alan Subia did not panic and kicked the ball to Capdevilla steadily.

Li Ming on the right side also stepped forward to press, but Capdevilla calmly handed the ball to Angulo, Angulo knocked to Xavi, Harvey passed to Gabry, and then to Albelda, they played another wave of dazzling offensive cooperation, Li Yin failed to stop Albelda's cross pass in the backfield, Gabri swiped his heel, and the ball rolled from Li Yin's right side to Xavi.

Boom –

At the critical moment, there was also Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi made a side flying tackle, and finally flew the ball out before the ball was about to roll to Xavi's feet! The ball eventually rolled off the touchline.

That's it!

"Whoa!"

"Zheng Zhi's defense is too iron-blooded!"

"Spain's offense is pleasing to the eye, but the Chinese team's defense is also rock-solid."

……

……

Unconsciously, time passed, and the first half was almost gone.

Zhang Lu, who rarely spoke, looked down at the small notebook on the table, on which were some offensive and defensive statistics recorded by him.

"Hey, hey,"

"After 40 minutes in the first half, Spain had only three shots on goal and none of them hit the woodwork?"

The Chinese team completed a total of two shots on goal, the first kick broke through the Spanish goal, and the second kick was Shao Jiayi's anti-aircraft gun. The offensive efficiency is amazing. ”

"That's all for Spain?"

"They had a lot of possession, but they were very inefficient. Conversely, can we say that our defense is efficient? ”

After Zhang Lu's reminder, the Chinese fans in front of the TV were also extremely shocked.

"Is the Chinese Olympic team like this?"

"Oh my God, oh my God, I can't believe it?"

"I think I can do it with Spain, but I really don't think it's going to be so pretty?"

"Calm, because this is the national Olympic team, not the national team."

"It's not that you don't know that the teams below the senior national team, our international results are no worse than some strong teams, but when it comes to the senior team, it's hard to say, and now it's clear that we are bullying our opponents, Zheng Zhizai! If he's there, the team will be stable. ”

Is it because of Zheng Zhi?

Everyone's eyes fell on Zheng Zhi.

Some people scratched their heads and recalled the matches between the Chinese team and the Chinese Olympic team in the past six months, and they always felt that there was something different from before.

Could it be because of Zheng Zhi?

"No, I feel like it's not just Zheng Zhi's reason,"

"Zheng Zhi is just one aspect, he condenses this team,"

"But in fact, the strength of this team is really strong, especially in the midfield, not giving them any chance at all, and the defense has played to the fullest."

At half-time, Spain were still 1-0 down, without any achievements, and the goal was quite far from them.

In the dressing room, head coach Iñaki kept questioning.

"Why?"

"Why can't we tear through their defenses?"

"You're almost all the main players in La Liga, and you can't do anything against a defence made up of Asian players?"

Hearing the coach's questioning, Xavi couldn't help but explain:

'Chief, they're pretty tough defensively, much more than we expected, right-back, the two centre-backs are very strong, the right side is a little bit weaker, but their two midfielders often fill in.

'At the worst of all, they played aggressively.

"Sometimes, it's hard to prevent."

'Every time our attack gets in front of their big box, their defence shrinks further and doesn't give us the ball at all, and if they're not careful, they're decisive.

Iñaki shook his head, dissatisfied with Harvey's defense.

"That's your explanation?"

"Harvey,"

"You know what?"

"Why did Barcelona lose to Bayer Leverkusen? Just because they played so badly,"

"You can't act like a sissy in front of them."

"And now that you're in front of them, you're like schoolchildren."

"Please, they won't stand and rush over to you!"

"You have to fight like men!"

"If you can't score, it's not because you don't have enough skills, it's because you don't have enough ambition. Look, if you lose this game again, you'll be drowned in the spit of the Spanish fans. ”

"It's impossible for such a team to win the Olympic Games."

-------------------------------------

On the other end, Horton was also speaking in the locker room.

'It was a pretty good first half, at least defensively.

"You're playing at the level of the league."

"The other party is a little doll,"

'Your defence made it difficult for them to move an inch, and I'm sure we could still make them cry in the second half.'

'But I need to emphasise that defending alone doesn't win, we need to do something on the offensive end.

"We need another goal,"

"A mature team will know when to focus on defense and when to attack."

"Zheng,"

Horton's gaze fell on Zheng Zhi.

"We need to be quicker on the counter-attack."

"We need a more concise way of countering."

'Especially since we have African teams in the future, which is another type of opponent that we have to face.

Horton is already confidently considering his opponent in the future......

'Of course, we also need a faster striker.

Eventually, his eyes fell on Qu Peng, who scored a hat-trick against Spain last time out, but this time Horton didn't let him start, but now, it's time for him to play.

Horton looked confident.
