Chapter 2 The first tactics of the Chinese team

At 1:10 a.m. Beijing time on June 14.

The squares of major cities in China were crowded, and on the big screen, the Chinese team and the Yugoslav team had already entered the stadium to warm up, and Ling Feng was practicing free kicks at this time.

In this game, free kicks have become a magic weapon for both sides to win, China has a free kick master Ling Feng, and Yugoslavia also has a top free kick master!

Mikhailovich!

Left-footed free-kick genius!

In 98, if you are the top three free kick masters, Beckham, Zidane, and Carlos are all not listed, and Ling Feng can be in a position with many free kicks scored in the league, and the remaining two are Mihajlovic and Germany's Basler - the latter also set the fastest free kick speed record other than Ling Feng!

Mihajlovic is the player who has scored the most goals through direct free kicks in Serie A, and he once created a hat-trick of free kicks in one game, so in this game, both sides will definitely not dare to take a foul strategy in the dangerous area, because the opponent has two super terrible free kick masters!

The warm-up of both sides seemed very relaxed, especially the Chinese team, which participated in the World Series for the first time, was not as nervous and restrained as imagined, and the action of teenager Liu Dong hitting the ball into the gate after a beautiful volley on the left side of the penalty area made the Chinese fans in the stands and in front of the TV burst into cheers.

A Chinese professional cheerleading squad composed of 5,000 fans came to France to cheer for the Chinese team, and at the same time, there were 3,000 overseas Chinese and Chinese students from all over Europe, but compared to the stadium of 60,000 people, 8,000 Chinese spectators were really not enough.

HOWEVER, THE NEAT "VIVELING! (Long live Ling Feng!) ) made the Golfrey•Gishar Stadium the home of the Chinese team.

Don't forget, this is France, the place where Ling Feng became famous, when there was no French team game, 20,000 Parisian fans came to Saint-Etienne by car to watch the game, Goffrey•Gilhard's sidelines set off a purple wave, and a large No. 46 Saint-Germain shirt showed a wave like the sea under the fans' lifting.

"We really want to be glad that Ling Feng has moved to the top five European leagues, and now France has become China's second home stadium," Liu Jianhong said with a smile: "It is said that Germany and Spain are bidding for the 06 World Cup, and no matter which country successfully bids at that time, it will be good news for us." ”

Yugoslav players rarely come to France to pan for gold, they basically switch to leagues like Italy and Spain, and Ling Feng's prestige among Saint-Germain is the highest among the three leagues he has participated in, so the enthusiasm of the French suddenly overwhelmed the Chinese team - Paris fans have already regarded Ling Feng as a complete "own person".

Today is Sunday, which means that no matter how you stay up late, you don't have to go to work after dawn, so now there are already crowds in squares with big screens in major cities in China.

The game was broadcast live on four CCTV channels, CCTV-1 comprehensive channel, CCTV-2 economic channel, CCTV-4 international channel and CCTV-5 sports channel.

According to statistics, the number of viewers has now exceeded the 600 million mark, that is, half of the Chinese are paying attention to this game - rely on! In 06, everyone who watched Supergirl could reach 300 million, Lao Bing, I said 600 million, not an exaggeration, right?

"This year is the fourth World Cup I have watched," Liu Jianhong's voice sounded: "When I was 14 years old, I watched the first World Cup game, the World Cup in Spain in '82;

"It was also the first World Cup match for the Chinese team after 24 years, but for various reasons, we did not get a ticket to Spain, and that World Cup allowed us to meet the golden boy Rossi, as well as Zico and Maradona, who had just become famous;

"It is undeniable that I liked the French team with Platini at that time, and I still like it now, and I think many Chinese fans are like me, everyone has a soft spot for some foreign strong teams, and they have become their die-hard fans, and when they win, we can cheer for them; When they fail, we weep for them;

"But as the country with the most fans in the world, we have always admired other teams, which has to be regarded as a kind of sadness for our national football."

Indeed, even if we Chinese fans cheer for other countries with the mentality of good-neighborliness, friendship and bilateral cooperation, do we have the qualifications and does it make too much sense?

Among the fans of the World Cup, which country has you ever seen fans cheering hoarsely for their opponents? Screaming for a country that has nothing to do with us, chanting "Long live the XX country?!" ”

I have to say that this is the sadness of Chinese fans, in the case that the Chinese team can not be pinned on, we turn our attention to other strong teams - whether it is like Brazil, or like Italy, France, Germany and other countries Chinese fans, maybe they will fight for who wins and who loses after the two strong teams collide together, but they will all have a common sentence:

It would be nice if the Chinese team could be like the XX team one day......

This day, in this book, has already arrived!

Maradona played in a traditional 4-4-2 formation and the starting line-up was as follows:

Goalkeeper Ou Chuliang, the back line from left to right: Zhu Yin, Fan Zhiyi, Zhang Enhua, Sun Jihai, midfielders Zhao Junzhe and Ling Feng as double backs, left and right forwards are from Fiorentina youngsters Yue Lingxiang and Liu Dong, and the forwards are Hao Haidong and Yang Chen.

In the starting list, four players are under 18 years old, and three of the perverts who have never participated in the national team's world-level competition in addition to Ling Feng's pervert have never participated in the national team.

At 1:30 Beijing time, the warm-up exercise ended, and the players from both sides returned to the lounge again, and the coach made the final tactical arrangements.

At 1:50, the players from both sides entered the stadium again - when Ling Feng, wearing the captain's armband, walked into the stadium first, Gao Fury•A shocking sound sounded over the Gichar Stadium: "Wind! Wind! Shout!

Only 8,000 Chinese fans can't achieve this effect, but if you add those 30,000 French fans, it will naturally be different.

Foreigners have always liked to call other people's surnames, unless they are very familiar with each other, they will be called by their first names - but for Chinese, the feeling of calling names alone is really not very comfortable for both parties, so they simply keep calling Ling Feng Ling as before.

But now it is very subtle, the Chinese shouted "wind" in unison, and the French thought that they were also cheering for Ling Feng alone, after all, the words "wind" and "maple" have the same sound, and the French do not know what is strange.

Even if a few people who understand Chinese run to ask Chinese fans, it doesn't matter, Chinese fans happily patted the French brothers on the shoulder and said, yes, it's for Ling Feng, shout with us!

That day, Siyue found a dictionary for Ling Feng, blushed and covered her mouth with a smile and pointed to the above paragraph - wind, which has the meaning of **** in ancient texts, it can be seen from the word wind, horse and cow are not related, which means that horses and cows have no sexual interest in each other......

In other words, in "Hero", Qin Jun shouted "wind, wind", which translates to ", I'll do it wildly!" ”……

Ling Feng didn't know how to use it on the fans, and he couldn't explain it at this time-otherwise he would lose a lot, but our protagonist thought about it like this with a lot of Ah Q spirit, which means that when the two sides were playing, our fans were very unceremoniously pointing at each other's noses and scolding-*!

Well, although he was a little disrespectful to the other party, he reluctantly explained......

(This is a reminder from book friend Xiahou Yabo in the book review area, thank you brother)

Yugoslavia's head coach Slobodan•Santraci frowned, he didn't expect Ling Feng's prestige in France to be so great, and now it has completely become the opponent's home field, which is a great test for the psychology of the players of this team.

Then the shouting of the "wind" subsided, because now that the national anthems of both teams were being played – even England and Argentina, the fans would not make noise to disturb each other during the anthem – and it was a matter of one country after all.

As the youngest captain in this year's World Cup - and the history of the World Cup, Ling Feng, who has become a legend, was very curious when he shook hands with Yugoslavia's No. 10 captain Stojkovic and exchanged team flags.

One is the team that rushed to the World Cup for the first time, and the other is ...... The last time this country participated in the World Cup, both teams had to fight for their honor.

In addition to the youngest captain, Liu Dong, the youngest of the youngsters, just celebrated his 16th birthday last month, a year and 10 days earlier than the record of 17 years and 42 days set by Norman • and Whiteside in Northern Ireland.

And the average age of 21.3 years is also one of the historical records, coincidentally the oldest team in this World Cup is also in Group F, that is, the aging German tank with an average age of 30.7 years.

It's just a pity that Ling Feng can't break the record of the youngest World Cup goal ever set by Uncle Pele - Pele's record is 17 years and 239 days, and Ling Feng is now 17 years and 263 days old, even if he scores in this game, this record will not be broken by Ling Feng.

Of course, if a youngster who comes on the pitch scores a goal, then that's a different story.

At two o'clock in the morning Beijing time, the referee from Colombia Tejada•Noriega blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the first game of the World Cup of the Chinese team officially began!

The Chinese team kicked off first, Hao Haidong and Yang Chen sent the ball out and handed it back to Ling Feng in the back.

Ling Feng skillfully controlled the ball, and easily dodged the competition of the opposing striker Milosevic, completing his first pass in the World Cup.

The purpose of possession is to buy time for the other players in midfield to get to the designated area as quickly as possible.

After passing Milosevic, Ling Feng took a step forward and stuffed it straight to Yue Lingxiang, who had already come to the left side.

The 17-year-old deftly stopped the ball next to him, and then flashed Yugovic in front of him as if he was about to kick the ball into the box, and quickly dribbled through the wing!

Pulling open space from the flanks to attract firepower and finding opportunities to score in the middle was a tactic arranged by Maradona.

Yugoslavia is a very perverted team, they have the outstanding body of the Europeans and the delicate skills of the Americans, and in every respect, Yugoslavia is superior to the Chinese team.

While winning or losing on the soccer field is not such an addition or subtraction, avoiding the opponent's strengths is a coach's top priority.

Fight for the body? Forget it, except for the two strikers Hao Haidong and Yang Chen who have been honed in the Bundesliga, they can barely fall behind physically, only Ling Feng, a pervert, can not be afraid of the other party's collision, and the other few young players are all technical, although Ling Feng attaches more importance to the body, but in view of their age, they don't have the capital to collide with these Eastern European men with their bodies.

The body is not good, so there is no need to think much about heading - the Europeans' heading ability is the strongest in the world, although the Chinese team is also tall in Asia, but the advantage of high altitude can only bully and bully those Southeast Asian teams.

You can only rely on technology!

This is also the reason why Maradona risked the big disapproval to arrange two young players under the age of 17 to play, because in addition to Ling Feng, this Chinese team has the most delicate skills!

No worse than Yugoslav players!

No one thought that such an Asian team would be fighting a technical battle with the Brazilian team known as "Europe"!
