Chapter 113: Saving Character
Although Cai Zhenhua is a senior official at the deputy ministerial level, he was born as a professional athlete after all, and later served as a coach, so he has a deep understanding of the athletes' pre-competition preparation and unity within the team.
After being in charge of Dragon Country Football and later being elected as the chairman of the Dragon Country Football Association, he never put on an official posture when facing the players of the Dragon Country team, and his attitude was quite approachable.
Now the Dragon Country team was not favored before, overcame many difficulties, and finally came to this day, only one step away from entering the World Cup finals again, which is a considerable political achievement for Cai Zhenhua, who is the chairman of the Dragon Football Association!
When facing the players of the Dragon Country Team again, the attitude was naturally more amiable.
Before pushing the door and walking into the conference room, I heard the laughter inside, the atmosphere was quite good, after coming in, I saw that everyone was ridiculing the biggest hero of the Dragon Country Team to get to this day, and it was also the youngest "little brother" of the Dragon Country Team Shen Feng, through everyone's expressions, it could also be seen that everyone was really just joking, without a little malice, Cai Zhenhua was more assured.
Cai Zhenhua rescued Shen Feng, who had messy clothes and hair messy into the bird's nest, from the siege of the big brothers in the team, and said to everyone with a smile while helping him tidy up his clothes, "I am relieved to see everyone's state so relaxed!" I hope you keep this relaxed mentality and keep it for the next two games, and I believe that as long as we play at our level in these two games, the final result will be as we want! ”
Cai Zhenhua didn't say much, just said that although he can't fly to Honduras with everyone tonight, he will definitely rush to the game site and cheer for everyone in person before the away game with the Honduran team starts!
Immediately, Cai Zhenhua resigned and left, handing over the team to the head coach of the Dragon Country team, Lippi, which is the greatest trust of the Dragon Football Association in Lippi and the greatest affirmation of the series of achievements led by Lippi.
Lippi didn't talk too much nonsense, just said a few words, and asked everyone to go back to the room to rest first, just leave the players who are not in good physical condition and have some injuries on their bodies, and let the team doctor do a comprehensive examination to determine their physical condition, whether it will affect the next preparations, if there is an impact, while the team has not yet set off, the personnel can also make emergency adjustments.
Everyone rested in the hotel for a few hours, had dinner, and at eight o'clock in the evening, took the bus equipped by the Dragon National Football Association to Beijing International Airport and prepared to fly to Honduras.
When I arrived at the airport, I received thousands of fans who learned about the itinerary of the Dragon Country Team through their respective channels and came to the airport in advance to serve the Dragon Country Team.
Some of these die-hard Dragons fans have even booked subsequent flights to travel across the ocean to Honduras to cheer on the Dragons and Honduras matches.
In order to ensure the state of the players of the Dragon Country Team as much as possible, the Dragon Football Association also arranged a charter flight for the Dragon Country Team's cross-continental expedition, although it also needs to be transferred in the United States, but the players of the Dragon Country Team do not need to transfer, and the entire sailing time can also be reduced by a few hours.
For the current Dragon Nation team, any favorable situation is crucial for them.
After more than 20 hours of sailing, the chartered flight of the Dragon Nation finally landed in Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras.
Honduras is only a small country in Central and North America, with a land area of only more than 110,000 square kilometers, which is not as large as the province of Yu Province of the Dragon Kingdom, and has a population of less than 10 million.
Therefore, Honduras is a very strange country to the Dragon Country, if it weren't for the Dragon Country team and their meeting in the World Cup Qualifier Intercontinental Play-offs, many Dragon Country people would not know that there is such a country in the world.
Due to the lack of diplomatic relations with the Dragon Kingdom, Honduras has almost no diplomatic and economic exchanges with the Dragon Kingdom, and even the Dragon Country expatriates that have spread across the six continents of the world are almost extinct in Honduras.
This allowed the Dragon National Team to arrive in Honduras, except for the reporters from various domestic media who came with the team, there was no other external interference, and they could devote themselves to preparing for the battle.
In the course of a few days of preparation in Honduras, the Dragon team did not arrange too much tactical training, and most of the training time was for the players to recover their physical fitness and adjust their condition.
With Zheng Zhi, a strong-willed spiritual leader, and Shen Feng, the fearless offensive core, the atmosphere in the Dragon Country team has always been relatively harmonious, relaxed and harmonious, which is a good thing for the preparation of the Dragon Country team.
If there are no fitness problems, with the strength that this Dragon Nation team has shown in the previous games, it is likely that the defeat of Honduras will be even higher!
However, the situation is already like this, and the Dragon Country team can only overcome all difficulties and go all out to win, as they did in previous games.
Although Shen Feng didn't have a big killer weapon like "Skill: One Hit Must" in his hand now, he was also confident in his ability after adding free attribute values.
Although Honduras did well in World Cup qualifiers in CONCACAF and the Caribbean, beating a strong United States team to qualify for the intercontinental play-offs, their overall strength, as they are now in the FIFA rankings, is still slightly inferior to the Dragons.
Although many of the players of the Honduran team play abroad, the teams they play for are also leagues in North and Central America, which is not higher than the level of the Dragon League where the players of the Dragon Country team play.
Even due to the Golden Yuan policy of the Dragon League in recent years, more and more players with world-class level players have been invited, as well as international top level coaches like Lippi, the current players of the Dragon Country team, although except for Zhang Yuning, who can't play football, have not played in the top five European leagues with the highest level of international football, but the competitive atmosphere of the players is much higher than that of the Honduran team.
This is also the main reason why the media and fans of the Dragon Country are full of confidence that the Dragon Country team defeated the Honduran team and reached the World Cup finals for the second time!
However, within the Dragon Country team, although they are also quite confident in the next two games, they are still relatively low-key in the preparation before the game.
