Chapter 87: Player No. 10

Although Dai Zhiwei did not participate in the last two matches of the Chinese team in the top 40 group stage of the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, he has also been paying attention to the results of the national team.

On March 24 at the Wuhan Sports Center, the Chinese team defeated the Maldives 4-0 with a goal from Yang Xu and a hat-trick from fringe international Jiang Ning.

Five days later, the Chinese team defeated Qatar 2:0 at home with Huang Bowen's long-range shot and Wu Lei's tackle, and successfully qualified for the top 12 of the group with the top spot of the group, and the group draw ceremony for the top 12 of the Asian zone of the World Preliminary Championship will be held in Kuala Lumpur on April 12.

Regardless of the result of the group draw, any team in the top 12 of the Asian region of this World Preliminary Championship is not an opponent that the current Chinese team can easily deal with, and Dai Zhiwei will definitely be called into the team and serve as the absolute offensive core of the team.

To some extent, Dai Zhiwei's performance determines whether the Chinese team can participate in the 2018 World Cup in Russia as desired.

After the international break, Villarreal's international players returned to the club, and the number of international players in the Yellow Submarine is not as large as in the top three of La Liga.

What makes Marcelino even more pleased is that this time there are no players in the team who have been injured due to accidents due to participating in the national team competition, and players such as Dai Zhiwei and Soldado who have not participated in the national team competition have also improved their physical reserves a lot after this short period of rest, which is extremely beneficial to Villarreal's sprint in the final stage of the season.

After the return of the full team, the 31st round of La Liga is on schedule, and Villarreal will face Eibar, a team in the middle and lower reaches of the league, which is a wonderful schedule.

"Huh? Igor, I feel that Dai's passing and passing awareness has improved significantly compared to before the national team break. Is this my delusion? Marcelino watched the game for a long time before confiding his feelings to his assistant.

In this game, Dai Zhiwei sent 3 threatening balls in the first 30 minutes, but unfortunately one was blocked by the opponent's goalkeeper, one directly hit the anti-aircraft gun, and one failed to form a shot, but Rao is so, everyone can see that this game is different from the previous games.

In previous games, Dai Zhiwei would have chosen to shoot and break through more on similar occasions.

"No, you're not wrong, I feel that way, too." The assistant coach replied.

"Then ......," the joy on Marcelino's face could easily be seen, "Dai, is this an enlightenment?" ”

As a striker, scoring goals is naturally the hardest indicator, but if there are other arsenals besides goals, such as passing, especially threatening passes from the edge of the box, then the role he can play in tactics is no longer single.

Just like Real Madrid's Benzema, although the number of goals is not many, he is an indispensable presence of the Galaxy Battleship, because of his fulcrum role and ability to do the ball.

In today's world football, it has become a common phenomenon for players with a single function to be less suitable for the development of the trend, with the center doing the work of a winger, the midfielder pushing to the forward line, and the center defender playing the center.

And the reason why Dai Zhiwei will "open up" is naturally because he has exchanged a new skill from the system - El Sido Pierre's Eiffel pass.

Although Dai Zhiwei quickly became the absolute main force of the team after joining Villarreal, and with 11 league goals and 7 Europa League goals, he ranked in the top 10 of La Liga scorers and the top scorer list of the Europa League respectively, but many times he is like a "black hole" on the field!

The reason why he is said to be a black hole is because once the football reaches his feet, it is either a shot or a personal dribble.

It's like a black hole, there is no entry and no exit.

He was like an end point in Villarreal's attack, like an arrow of a sharp arrow, with few other variations.

In other words, Dai Zhiwei is the "lone wolf" on the court.

Although there is no problem with the development of Dai Zhiwei, he can become the world's No. 1 super scorer and score goals.

But in the game against Barcelona, after seeing Messi's MSN with his own eyes, especially after seeing Messi's role as the core of the attack on the field, he made waves in his heart.

Compared to a simple shooter like Kojiro Hinata, he prefers to grow into an all-round player in the front court like Tsubasa Oku.

Dai Zhiwei's ambition is not only to become a striker in the team who is only responsible for scoring goals, he must become the only core of the attack, to be a "No. 10 player" in the true sense!

These days, in addition to playing with Yang Chaoyue, he has also been discussing the direction of his growth with Dakong Yi in the system, and finally under the recommendation of Dakong Yi, he did not continue to accumulate points to redeem curve shots, but first exchanged 15 points for El Cido Pierre's Eiffel pass.

El Sido Pierre is the captain and core commander of the French team of "Football Player", as the three major boss-level characters of the World Junior Championships, he is the fate of Cape Taro's rival, and his prototype is Michel Platini, who not only has gorgeous and excellent ball skills, but also has the leadership temperament of commanding and leading the team, and his comprehensive ability makes him known as the "gorgeous commander"!

After exchanging the Eiffel pass of El Cido Pierre, Dai Zhiwei's short passing ability and passing awareness at the edge of the penalty area have made great progress, although there is still a big gap with Xavi and Ozil, the top frontfield commanders, but he can already play the position of the midfielder, no longer like before can only play the team's center and winger.

And today's match against Eibar is the stage for him to prove his passing awareness and passing ability!

In the end, in the game against Eibar, Dai Zhiwei assisted Bakambu and Pina to score a goal in the 43rd and 61st minutes respectively. After helping his team seal a 2-0 victory, he was immediately replaced by Soldado.

Although Dai Zhiwei's performance in this game came to an abrupt end, both the post-game ratings and the praise of the media showed who was the biggest contributor to the victory of the Yellow Submarine in this game.

It is worth mentioning that after taking all three points, Villarreal has reached 11 points ahead of Sevilla, who are fifth in the league standings, and with only seven rounds of the league remaining, they have almost sealed the Champions League qualification for next season in advance.

The reason why Marcelino chose to replace Dai Zhiwei, who did not participate in the international game, on 62 minutes was naturally for the sake of schedule - they will welcome the Europa League quarter-finals at home in three days.

Their Europa League quarter-final opponent is Sparta Prague, who appear to be the weakest team in the quarter-finals, but they dare not let the submarine underestimate because Lazio is a lesson learned.

To qualify for the last four, they will have to establish an advantage at home.

With two Europa League knockouts from Napoli and Bayer Leverkusen, Villarreal are among the favourites to win the competition, and their confidence has been boosted after those two tough battles, and the team is now on their way to winning the first European title in the club's history.

Against Sparta Prague, Villarreal is still confident enough to qualify, provided that the team does not underestimate the team, especially since the first leg at home is crucial.

No one expected that it would be Czech side Sparta Prague who had the last laugh in a draw with Lazio at home, and everyone was surprised by their three-goal victory over Lazio in Rome.

Prague would be welcome to reach the quarter-finals, but they need to be aware that the battle will be even tougher, such as against Villarreal this time.

They play on the road with a very low profile, but even so, the team needs to look further for a good opportunity to get out of the way.

For Dai Zhiwei, in addition to hoping that the team will successfully qualify for the Europa League semi-finals, he is also pursuing his first Europa League Golden Boot.

If he can finish the Europa League Golden Boot without participating in the group stage and only win the Europa League Golden Boot with a knockout goal, then he is destined to become an indelible legend in the history of the Europa League.
