Chapter 3: Lippic's World Cup Selection (Part 3)
The 6-0 defeat to Wales in the China Cup and the 4-1 defeat to the Czech Republic in the third-place and fourth-place matches caused a series of ripple effects.
At that time, several players were criticized by the media and fans as "mixed" and "ineffective" - although Lu Zhuhu was also questioned about this, but Lu Zhuhu was not as obvious as these performances.
The old man of the silver fox seems to have lost confidence in the players of the Evergrande system that he relied on very much in the past, so in the next training camp, Gao Lin, Feng Xiaoting and other veterans of Lippi's "descendant army" were all defeated, and a large number of young players were recruited, and at the same time, the 39-year-old captain Zheng Zhi also returned. Before the World Cup squad came out, most fans were still optimistic about the final selection of players such as Gao Lin, Feng Xiaoting, and Yu Hanchao, and the training camp was just to relieve the pressure of the club's AFC Champions League match.
But when the final list came out, there were still no such people.
This has to be a shock!
Although without Lu Zhuhu's play, the Chinese team may have said goodbye to the World Cup, but since it has entered the World Cup, it is naturally for the purpose of obtaining results, and there is no such thing as training the team.
"Gao Linsmann" and Yu Dabao, who are in their playing years, have been abandoned, and the previous World Cup qualifiers were also based on a group of their players as the main framework, and now they can play the main game, but the framework is dismantled?
The old man doesn't have such willfulness!
This is much more thunderous than when Peilan was the coach last time without Zheng Zhi, Feng Xiaoting, and Wang Dong.
However, it was Lippi who made the decision.
His resume dictates that trolls have to think before spraying him.
If it was still Perlan's decision, if others didn't say it, the Football Association would have told Ya to get out.
Lippi also has his own reasons, he said that the national football team has recruited a lot of new players in this World Cup, mainly because they have played very well in the Chinese Super League.
Fans can rest assured that the players will be under his command......
Let the Chinese team have a decent "way to die" in Russia.
……
Because he won all the championships, the old man is very willful.
Lu Zhuhu actually has a lot of complaints about the choice of the squad, at least Gao Lin has a very good relationship with him, and the training camp has always been that they live in the same house.
Gao Lin doesn't go, who do you let him sleep with him at night?
But Lu Zhuhu's opinion will not be useful, Lippi is not the Perrin who listened to him four years ago.
What's more, Lu Zhuhu's qualifications are not enough to make the old man of the silver fox look at him differently.
Do you have the Champions League? The old man has.
Do you have a World Cup? The old man has it too.
Have you played for Real Madrid? Real Madrid invited the old man to be the coach several times, but Lao Tzu was not a bird.
In any case, the weakest Chinese team in history also chose a half-crippled lineup, and Old Man Lippi can use his prestige to suppress doubts, but the game must be a real contest between the players.
This made Lu Zhuhu, who was the core, feel a lot of pressure.
……
In this game, Xiao Zhi, Huang Zichang and Wu Lei led the offensive line, and Zheng Zhi, Wu Xian, and Lu Zhuhu sat in the midfield.
Guard line? No one cares, because everyone must just want to know how many goals can be scored in this offensive lineup that may have been taken out in the World Cup?
Head-to-head record? Less important.
Among the players on the field, only Zheng Zhi and Lu Zhuhu have played against Myanmar.
Zheng Zhi was 11 years ago in the 2007 World Preliminary Tournament, when Forado led the team, and the Chinese team beat the opponent into a sieve, and finally won 7-0.
In 2007, Lu Zhuhu was only 14 years old, and he definitely didn't participate, the one he participated in......
Even earlier than Zheng Zhi......
It was 1936, and the Chinese team composed of Lu Zhuhu and Li Huitang, Tan Jiangbai and other teammates won 4:0 against Myanmar. It's just that at that time, Myanmar under British rule was still a super strong team, and there really didn't seem to be anyone in the whole of Asia except for the Chinese team and the third brother Indian team......
Lu Zhuhu's legendary experience can't be shared with his teammates at this time, but it is sometimes embarrassing to think about that experience.
At the beginning of the game, Lu Zhuhu made a diagonal plug from the right side, and Huang Zichang in the middle of the ball went to the person to shoot, but unfortunately the ball was out of the goal.
After a period of time, Lu Zhuhu ferried the ball to the penalty area at the edge of the penalty area, and Huang Zichang shot with a barb, but the strength was lacking.
The ball flew out of the baseline after being pushed by the kind Wu base.
Subsequently, the Chinese team launched several attacks under the organization of Lu Zhuhu, but none of them posed a threat to the opponent's goal.
This makes the fans who hold the theory of "the peak of Lu Chahu has passed" very excited, this guy is really not good.
looks down on the Super League players, and as a result, they are not much better than the Super League players!
There was a time when Lu Zhuhu was booed when he got the ball - but Lu Zhuhu still had a group of hardcores, and quickly silenced this wave of discordant sounds.
The strength of the Myanmar team is far below that of the Chinese team, and they also thought before the game that the Chinese team would firmly control the ball, so they are not in a hurry to control the ball at their feet and defend with peace of mind. Although the Chinese team has the advantage on the field, it has never been able to tear through the final level. Lu Zhuhu was not as smooth as he was when he scored a back-to-back goal at the end of the farewell to Arsene Wenger, and there was no threat in the two test shots.
So the fans paid more attention to tonight's national team newcomer Huang Zichang.
Born in 1997, Huang Zichang is only 21 years old, and it is also the first year to participate in the Chinese Super League, and he has played well, and has now scored 5 goals, ranking second only to Wu Lei in the list of local scorers. Fans don't want him to be as stunning as he was when he made his debut four years ago.
People, they will always like the new and hate the old, since Lu Zhuhu is no longer good, then come out with a more powerful one and replace him.
Lu Zhuhu also seems to realize that he will gradually have to adapt to the position of supporting role in the future, and he tried to make the ball for Huang Zichang many times in the game, which made the fans very satisfied.
It's a pity that although Huang Zichang is full of hard work, he also has a few wonderful outstandings. But his weaknesses are also obvious, his vision and overall vision are average, and his ability to take chances in front of goal is even worse.
Not to mention compared with Lu Zhuhu's peak, even compared with the debut of the martial arts king, there seems to be a big gap.
The only domestic warm-up game before the World Cup made fans full of disappointment, and the team's prospects in Russia were even more at a loss.
Finally, by the 39th minute, the Chinese team had scored a goal. Lu Zhuhu sent a corner kick from the right side to the penalty area, Zhang Chengdong nodded the ball to the goal, and Wu Lei shook his head to attack the goalkeeper to push the ball in.
Other than that, there were really few highlights in the first half.
After half-time, Lu Zhuhu, who had just returned from Europe, was substituted for the break, and after he left, the team's attack developed in a more chaotic direction. The Myanmar pair basically had no offensive ability, and the Chinese team maintained a 1-0 lead until the end.
Although the victory was almost like a loss, the team's performance was really a bit embarrassing, and it was hard to believe that this was a team that was about to go to the World Cup.
How did we get the title 4 years ago? Could it be that 1.3 billion people collectively had a dream that month?
How do you feel that today's Chinese team is not even as good as those days when even qualifying for the qualifiers was a luxury before Lu Zhuhu was born! At that time, I played these teams in Southeast Asia, and eight out of ten were still small cases.
Lu Zhuhu, who was sitting on the sidelines in the second half, was also quite helpless, and he did serve the batch of players selected by the old man. In the first half he tried to make the ball for everyone, but most people didn't grasp his intentions.
It's better to get Gao Lin back!
As for this World Cup......
Hmph, it's obvious how much harder it is than 14 years.
14 years in Brazil, you should think it was a dream.
Now, let's get back to reality.
