Chapter 81: A Closer Look at the Opponent

Crawford still hasn't returned to the training ground, and he's a mystery. These days, it is Gao Hongbo and Dong Fangzhuo, members of the Chinese coaching staff, who lead the team to train together.

Gao Hongbo has no command authority, but is only responsible for training. Dong Fangzhuo is the real real power figure.

"France,"

"Our opponents are France, they are strong in every position and have hardly any weaknesses."

"Don't look at them in the group stage as mediocre as they play, but the slow-burning teams tend to get better and better in the back, as has been the case with all the World Cup winners, including us."

"They're very champions."

"But, they met us."

"We're going to take off their championship masks."

Dong Fangzhuo analyzed the French team in the tactical conference room, and no one in this world knows the French team better than him.

He even knows every player inside out, because he has twice the advantage in memory.

"Let's start with Mbappe. He is my apprentice. "Dong Fangzhuo plans to study the past one by one." This guy is probably the best player of the next decade. ”

"This guy's startup speed, no one can catch up with him, except me."

There was silence. Mbappe has become a world-class striker at Manchester United in the past three years, although he is only 19 years old!

What Dong Fangzhuo said is the truth, there are really few people who can stop Mbappe.

"So, we can't afford to let up from the first second. Never leave him more than half a metre by his side, and never let his body face the goal! ”

"I can say responsibly, if we can't prevent him, we're going to be finished. He is the most dangerous player in the French team. ”

Dong Fangzhuo gave Mbappe five stars.

"Pogba,"

"This guy likes to rush up and attack, but he loves to show off his three-legged kung fu." In front of Dong Fangzhuo, Pogba's foot skills are not enough.

"But that's all he can do, stop and smash the ball, pedal a two-legged bike, or occasionally do a Marseille slalom. At this level, he also played okay. But as long as we don't mess around, he's not hard to defend, and after any action this guy makes, he likes to go to the right because his dominant foot is the right foot. The level of the through ball is average, what we have to guard against is that he passes through the top ball, and this product is still okay with the ball over the top. But the point is still what I just said, he likes to move to the right and like to dribble the ball. Follow him, don't take it lightly. ”

"The third, Griezmann."

"He doesn't like to go it alone, he likes to play with his teammates, he only fights alone unless he has to, his body is not his strong point, so he prefers to fight with his teammates to break through the defense, so we have to block him head-on and don't let him rush."

"Fourth, N'Golo Kante."

"This guy is scared to death, but offense is not his strong point."

“……”

From the main force to the substitute, Dong Fangzhuo analyzed them one by one. Even Gao Hongbo on the side was stunned when he heard it, if it were him, he would never say it in such detail. Before, he was a little worried that Dong Fangzhuo would not be able to take the position of the team's coach, but now he is convinced. Although Dong Fangzhuo is not very old, he really looks like a head coach.

"Now, I'm going to talk about our offensive tactics."

"First of all, we must not mess around."

'I'll be in the middle of midfield. Feng Jin is in the middle of the left flank. ”

"We play without a striker, Hao Junmin on the right is just a feint because you don't have the pace, our focus is on the middle and the left."

“……”

On the French team's side, it is frequently exposed to the news media, and the coach of the French team, Deschamps, has been emphasizing in an interview with the French media: "Our goal in coming to Russia is to reach the final."

"Although the next game will be more difficult, the French team will try to play to their advantage and make the game move in a favorable direction. The team came to Russia to be able to play seven matches, including the final. ”

"Please wait and see".

Confident Deschamps! He was also complacent about the win over Argentina.

"The fact that we were able to win against Argentina is proof of that. We are a strong team and I am very gratified. ”

"One of the values of football is the dedication of the players. As the captain said before the game, let's fight for our parents, siblings and country, let's fight with all our might! Indeed, the team did it."

Speaking about their next opponents, China, Deschamps said: "China is a formidable opponent with the best strikers in the world, everyone has seen the dominance of the Chinese Dong in the game, he was born for the World Cup. ”

"But don't forget, we also have Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann, Pogba, Matuidi, Kante ......"

"If a united French team with bright stars and incomparably strong strength can't win the Chinese team, I think we might as well disband the national team?"

"What Uruguay can't do, we can do in France."

"On July 6th, we will be the victors."

Almost every Frenchman is talking about China and Dong Fangzhuo, and in training, Didier Deschamps also handed over the task of defending Dong Fangzhuo to Paul Pogba and N'Golo Kante.

"This guy is going to drop back to midfield, so the back line can't contain him, and you two will be his opponents."

"N'Golo, Paul, you two have to be seamless defensively. Paul, you're in charge of frontal blocking, and N'Golo you're in charge of sabotage. If you fail, then the French backline is in absolute danger. ”

"There can be no slackness and relaxation in the defense."

"And when you switch from defense to attack, Ngolo, you need to continue to follow him closely, Paul you can attack with Matuidi, but once the attack fails, you have to run to the side of China Dong at the first time, remember, you must! There can't be a single mistake! Deschamps' expression was very serious.

"Don't have that attitude of slowly walking back with your head hanging down after losing the ball!"

"Don't miss the greatest trophies in the best years!"

"This year is our best chance."

Pogba nodded expressionlessly.

"Don't worry, boss, I'll greet him well, I can do it."

"I hate that guy."

Of course he hates Dong Fangzhuo, when he and Ferguson both said that they didn't want him to go back to Manchester United, Dong Fangzhuo also sprayed him directly, for others, Dong Fangzhuo was the king, and for Pogba at that time, Dong Fangzhuo was his most hated enemy!

"You won him,"

"You'll win the Ballon d'Or."

"Anyone who wins against him is ......"
