Chapter 12 The Mission of Korean Football

But Gao Zheng did not pass the evaluation of the team medical team.

Simeone himself guessed whether the team medical team did not want Gao Zheng to return to China to participate in the national team's competition.

After all, unlike in Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid does not have Gao Zheng, Griezmann, Carrasco, and Koke...... And many more. But the Chinese team is nothing without Gao Zheng, and if Gao Zheng goes back, he will have to take the lead alone, and the pressure is completely different from that in the club.

What if he returns to the tournament and gets injured again?

You must know that Gao Zheng's injury this time was in the game with the South Korean team......

And the atmosphere in the two countries has been so tense lately, it is inevitable that that mood will be transferred to the stadium.

It is said that football is a war in peacetime, and since it is a war, how can there be immortals?

Isn't it normal to not be able to kill people and hurt individuals in wars in peacetime?

Besides, Atletico Madrid's team doctors now have no confidence in the sportsmanship of the South Korean players, and trust is almost zero. They don't believe that the South Korean players will play high.

They can fully imagine that the players of the South Korean team know that Gao Zheng has just recovered from injury, and neither his physical condition nor the game condition has been adjusted to the best, so they will definitely defend Gao Zheng in the game and take the following actions without fouls or fouls to contain Gao Zheng.

If Gao Zheng is scared, it will be in their arms.

But if Gao Zheng was not afraid, but had to fight hard, then they shouldn't mind letting Gao Zheng get injured again......

So the team doctors hope to use this way to prevent Gao Zheng from returning to China.

Simeone thought about this, but he felt that the team doctors might have underestimated Gao Zheng's determination to return to the national team.

After knowing that he had failed the physical examination, Gao Zheng came to find Simeone as soon as possible and asked him to return to China on the day of the match.

Simeone, of course, can use the authority of the head coach to forcibly keep Gao Zheng.

But what's the use of that?

Even if he can get Gao Zheng not to leave on match day, it is impossible to prevent Gao Zheng from leaving the team after that. World Cup qualifiers are international A-level competitions, and clubs must release players whenever requested by the national team.

And if he insists on not letting Gao Zheng return to China early, it will not benefit him at all, but will affect the relationship between him and Gao Zheng.

Doctors can ignore their relationship with their players, but managers can't afford to ignore it.

So Simeone approved Gao Zheng's request to leave the team early, but told him to be careful not to get injured in the game.

He also taught Gao Zheng how to use fake falls to deceive the referee and protect himself when necessary.

“…… If they kick you, don't lie still on the ground, you have to get up right away and yell at the fouling player, provoke him and make him reach out and push you. As soon as he gets his hands on it, you'll fall to the ground right away. At this moment, the nature of the other party's action changed, and it became revenge. This is your home stadium and I think the referee will take that into account when making a decision...... And you were injured in the previous game against South Korea, which will also affect the referee's judgment......"

Simeone pulled Gao Zheng and chattered, and Gao Zheng listened to it and grinned - it was really worthy of performing Diego Simeone who was kicked to the ground by Beckham in front of so many people in front of so many people in the World Cup......

That scene at that time made Simeone world-famous, and he was also scolded by fans of Beckham who don't know how much.

But apparently Simeone doesn't think there's anything wrong with that.

Gao Zheng nodded after listening: "Don't worry, boss." I'll take care of myself. This time it will certainly not let you hear bad news again. ”

The last time he played in the round of 12, after the news of his serious injury came back to Spain, Diego Simeone almost flew directly to South Korea, which shows how nervous he is......

※※※

Whether Gao Zheng can participate in the match against the South Korean team in the top 12 is the thing that fans and media in China and South Korea are most concerned about in the past week or so.

Whether it is South Koreans or Chinese, everyone defaults to the signal that Atletico Madrid and Sevilla match.

If Gao Zheng can play in this game, then he has a good chance of playing against South Korea.

On the contrary, if Gao Zheng is unable to play in this match, it means that he is not ready to play, so it is very likely that he will not be able to play against South Korea.

The South Koreans certainly hope that Gao Zheng will not play, because then they are most confident of beating China on the road.

At the pre-match press conference the day before the match, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone will announce the squad for the match, as is customary.

The eighteen-man squad does not represent the final starting line-up.

But it means that the players who are in the squad are likely to play.

So this pre-match press conference also brought several South Korean reporters for the first time.

In the squad announced by Atletico Madrid, everyone did not see Gao Zheng's name.

This means that Gao Zheng will definitely not play against Sevilla.

After this roster was announced, a group of arms were raised.

The vast majority of them are Chinese journalists who want an explanation.

“…… Our medical team conducted a physical examination of Gao and concluded that he was not fit enough to play......" Simeone explained.

His explanation made South Korean journalists flutter.

Listen, listen, "he's not physically fit enough to play"!

There are only four days left before the battle between China and South Korea, and Gao Zheng's body is not up to the level of playing, can his physical condition suddenly reach the standard in the remaining four days?

So obviously, he won't be able to play against us!

When the Chinese reporters heard Simeone's explanation, they all looked gloomy.

This made the South Korean reporters next to them almost dance in celebration.

As long as Gao Zheng can't make a comeback against South Korea. As for the Chinese team playing Iran, Syria or something after that, Gao Zheng can come back whenever he wants, they don't care.

As for what will happen if the two sides meet again in the future, South Korean reporters don't think about it at all.

At present, when the atmosphere between China and South Korea is at its most tense, the most important thing is that the South Korean team can beat the Chinese team away from home.

Dealt the heaviest blow to China in football, helping South Korea to win back from this period of international disputes.

This is the mission of Korean football!

China is a big country, the United States is also a big country, and South Korea can only survive in the middle of a big country, so it is very aggrieved and aggrieved.

Fortunately, there is football, and in football, we are a big country in South Korea and a small country in China. Then let us pay back the grievances of a small country a hundredfold, and let you also taste the taste of being kneeled by someone's head!
