327 With Messi, there is no need for Yang Yang! [The third update, ask for a monthly pass]
Because the game time was scheduled at noon, and the Chinese team reached the final of the World Youth Championships, it has become the focus of attention of media reporters and fans, so that people outside are always paying attention.
In this case, Yang Yang really had no way to go out, so he could only stay in the hotel.
He went to the hotel's gym for a set of muscle activations, and then went for a swim.
Winston Bogard has been training with Yang Yang throughout the whole process, and he is in charge of all the training items and volumes.
In his words, proper muscle activation training can make it easier for Yang Yang to get out of shape during the midday game.
"Come on! Don't be pressured, the more this time, the more you have to stay calm. Winston Bogard encouraged.
Yang Yang, who had just gotten up from the pool, smiled and high-fived the personal trainer, who was also a teacher and friend.
That's right, but how can it be if there is really no pressure?
However, after playing professional football for two years, playing in the Champions League final, the League Cup final, and the Asian Cup final, for Yang Yang, the pressure has gradually become a habit.
This allows him not to be overly agitated when he encounters anything.
Of course, sometimes he deliberately makes himself appear impatient or even impulsive out of technical requirements.
For example, in the Asian Cup final against Japan, when he put pressure on the referee, he deliberately made himself look angry and very dissatisfied, which also infected his teammates around him.
But in fact, his heart was very calm at that time.

Coming out of the gym and swimming pool, Yang Yang went to breakfast with the team.
After breakfast and a rest, it was time for the last tactical preparation meeting before the game.
The meeting was held in the conference hall of the hotel, and according to the request of Crowchen and the players, all the leaders, including the team leader, except for the coaching staff, were not present, and tried to create a relaxed environment for the players to prepare for the game.
"As you know, our opponent is Argentina, a very good South American team."
Once again, Krauchen introduced the players to the Argentine team.
"But it's completely different from everyone's previous traditional impression of Argentina, this is not a typical Argentine team, their head coach Pancho Ferraro was originally a small Argentine team, the coach of Jujuy Gymnastics and Fencing Club, was only recruited in January to coach the national youth team, and it has only been half a year now."
"The South American qualifiers in February were not good, but they were solid, unbeaten in nine games, drew four, and it was not until the last game that Messi scored the winner and eliminated Brazil 2-1, which made them come to the Netherlands in the near future, and in the World Youth Championships, they beat Colombia and took revenge."
Colombia won the South American youth tournament, with Brazil second and Argentina third.
"Judging from the performance of this World Youth Championships, Argentina gradually changed from the original 442 formation to the later 352 formation, because 442 did not play well and lost to the United States in the first round of the group stage, and in the 352 formation, their two wings are very mobile, and the formation often switches back and forth between 352 and 532."
"And we need to pay special attention to the opponent's number 18, Leo Messi."
As Crouchen spoke, Messi's statistics from the past few matches of the Argentine national youth team appeared on the screen behind him, from the South American Youth Championship in February to the World Youth Championship in June.
These are relatively easy to find.
From these data, it is not difficult to see that Messi can be said to be pivotal and crucial in this Argentine national youth team.
If Yang Yang is the soul core and key force of the Chinese national youth team, then Messi is equivalent to Yang Yang of the Argentine team, which is why the outside world has always said that this final will be a showdown between Yang Yang and Messi.
Everyone knows very well that purely from the perspective of personal competition ability, Yang Yang must be better than Messi.
His fighting power has been tempered by many competitions such as the Champions League final, the League Cup final and the Eredivisie, and there is no need to prove anything, while Messi has only just made his debut, and it is difficult to play even in Barcelona.
Perhaps, individually, the only thing Messi beats Yang Yang is his termination money.
Just yesterday, some media revealed that Barcelona specially sent someone to Utrecht to renew Messi's contract, and the salary was not disclosed, but it was certainly not high, but the termination fee was as high as 150 million euros.
However, Yang Yang's personal advantages are limited by the overall strength of the national youth team.
Although Ferraro brought out an atypical Argentine team, the results were very stable, the play was very integral, and the defensive counterattack was very good, and the overall strength was definitely better than the national youth team.
This is also the biggest headache for Crowchen at the moment, that is, how to play in the final?
The Chinese team can play to this day, Yang Yang's role is crucial, and Yang Yang's combat effectiveness is definitely played, but the key is how to develop a game strategy for Argentina's tactics.
Keep playing defensive counter-attacks?
Crowchen really doesn't have much confidence in his team's backline, because Messi is really strong individually.
Once you can't keep Messi and give him a chance to score, then this game is really over!
A very important reason why the Chinese team can reverse the goal after conceding the ball first is that Brazil's integrity and defense are not ideal, but Argentina is different, once the Pampas Eagles lead, they will not give the Chinese team a chance.
For the Chinese team, the most ideal and best situation is to attack, score first, force Argentina to press out and play, and then hit the opponent to counterattack, which is the best chance of winning.
But the problem is that the risk of attacking is also very high, especially whether the attack can score a goal, which is crucial.
When Crawford analyzed his many worries, all the players in the conference room also realized how difficult the game was, after all, the strength of the Chinese team was indeed weaker than that of the opponent.
Underdogs often have fewer options and no chance of making mistakes.
And everyone also swept their eyes to Yang Yang, because he was the key force of the team.
"Echard, how long do you think our rush can last with our strength?" Yang Yang asked with concern.
He and Crawford spoke directly in English.
"Fifteen minutes, fifteen minutes at most." Crowchen replied.
The interpreter in the room told the other players what they were talking to, so that some of the players could not understand English.
Yang Yang thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, I will do my best to help the team score in ten minutes, if we can't score in ten minutes, then we will concentrate on retreating and counterattacking, and then patiently look for opportunities." ”
Crouchen looked at Yang Yang deeply, nodded and said, "Okay, everything will be left to you." ”
Yang Yang nodded to the German coach, looked at the teammates around him, and said confidently: "Don't worry, as long as each of us concentrates on playing well and doing our best, we will definitely be able to win!" ”
As the team's number one star and the top leader of the national youth team, Yang Yang must express his confidence to his teammates at this time.
Everyone also fought with Yang Yang along the way, and when they heard him say this, everyone nodded one after another, expressing their confidence in Yang Yang.

The World Youth Championships is the world's top youth event, and the Chinese team, the dark horse of this World Youth Championships, has reached the finals all the way, which has attracted a lot of attention.
The final attracted a total of 25,000 fans and filled all the seats at the Golgenwald Arena.
From the Hotel Mittland to the Golgenwald Stadium, you can also see a lot of fans, most of them Chinese, who apparently came to the Netherlands to watch the game, but were unable to buy tickets.
There is no way, there is only so much capacity of the stadium, it is impossible to change the venue at the last minute.
The closer you get to the Golgenwald Stadium, the more atmospheric the final becomes.
Judging from the number of fans, supporting the Chinese team undoubtedly accounts for the majority.
This is mainly because Yang Yang is currently playing for Ajax, which makes many Dutch teams feel closer to him, while Argentine players have always disliked the Eredivisie, so they are not favored in the Netherlands.
In addition to local fans, Chinese fans are also huge.
Whether it is Chinese or international students in Europe, or fans who have flown from China to the Netherlands, they form a huge fan phalanx, occupying half of the stands of the Gogenwald Stadium.
When Yang Yang and the national youth team walked into the Gogenwald Stadium, the fans sang the Chinese national anthem.
This made the players of the national youth team who had just walked into the stadium very excited.
Yang Yang remained calm and rational from beginning to end, a little moody.
But as soon as everyone saw him, it was easy to have a trust.
Argentina entered training a few minutes later than China, with both teams taking half of the game.
Yang Yang looked in the direction of Argentina from a distance and saw the diminutive No. 18 among the players, Leo Messi.
It was the first time he had met Messi in person.
Messi also seemed to have been paying attention to Yang Yang, and soon turned his head to look at him, and the two looked at each other, as if even sparks were in the air.
This match will undoubtedly be a direct showdown between the two of them!
Whoever performs better and better will bring a world-class championship to their home country!
Yang Yang smiled slightly, nodded, and said hello to Messi from afar.
The Argentine also looked very ordinary, and beckoned to Yang Yang, a bit of a return salute.
But Yang Yang didn't know that at this moment, Messi looked ordinary and calm on the surface, but in fact, deep down in his heart, he was turbulent.
Yang Yang, his biggest imaginary enemy in the past few months, he has been training crazy hard, just to be able not to lose to him, in order to have a chance to surpass him, and this game in this stadium today is his best chance.
He wants to prove to everyone and Barcelona that since he has Messi, there is no need for Yang Yang!
