Chapter 121: A New World!
At half past seven, the players from both sides returned to the locker room. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the home team's dressing room, Van Marwijk first announced the starting line-up: "Goalkeeper: Stekelenburg; Defenders: Chen Fan, Mathieson, Heitinga, Van Bronckhorst; Midfielders: Van der Meyer, De Jong, Sneijder; Forwards: Robben, Kuyt, Van Persie. ”
Four-three-three, Van Marwijk put on an attacking lineup, which also shows his determination to win.
Van der Wiel, who returned to form and regained his starting place at Ajax, failed to occupy the right-back position as he had hoped. When VanderWiel heard that Chen Fan was replacing him, his mood was extremely complicated.
Robben kept his head down, and no one could see his facial expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After announcing his squad, Van Marwijk continued: "The goal tonight is to get all three points, we have to play fluidly, we have to be aggressive in defence, we have to put pressure on the opposition and not let them pass the ball and shoot ...... easily."
The Dutch coach is not very worried about his team's attack, and the fact that players from any position in the Netherlands can attack is a factor that permeates the blood of every Dutch player, and they have always been involved in this football philosophy when they were training as teenagers.
One of the things he did the most when he came to the top was to repeatedly emphasize defense and encourage his players to play rougher and tougher.
He summed it up from Basten.
Basten's Dutch team has a gorgeous attack like mercury, but their defense is very average, and once the attack is not fluent, the morale of the whole team will be greatly affected.
That was the case in the match against Russia, and in the end the Netherlands had to say goodbye to Euro 08 with regret.
Van Marwijk's revamp is beginning to bear fruit, with the Netherlands scoring seven goals and conceding just one in their last three World Cup qualifiers, making them the team with the most goals and the fewest goals conceded in Group Nine.
'We have to be patient, we can't be impatient, even if we don't score for 70 minutes, we have to believe that we can score. We can't be afraid to make physical contact with our opponents, it's time to show your iron and blood! ”
Chen Fan's blood began to flow rapidly, and the Irish's body was undoubtedly strong, and they were the kind of team that was very good at using their bodies to play football.
Blood!
Men should have iron and blood!
……
In the visiting dressing room, Ireland boss Martin O'Neill said: "We all know it's a tough game, but we don't have any reason to be afraid because we're professionals, we represent the national level, and the fans of the whole country are watching us!" ”
"They hope we can work a miracle and defeat the mighty Netherlands!"
Heavy breathing began to sound in the locker room, and Martin O'Neill nodded in satisfaction and continued: "Defense! Defend! The first thing we have to do is defend! ”
"Our strategy is to defend and counterattack!"
"Use a strong body to charge the opponent, and use a strong body to erect a strong wall in front of the goal!"
"The Dutch are good at playing downwind and when things are bad, they get impatient!"
"We're going to use our defense to destroy their not strong will!"
The visiting dressing room is in full swing!
At 7:45 a.m., the starters of both sides walked out of the dressing room, and Van Persie was undoubtedly the busiest man, with many Irish players greeting him.
The Irish players are basically playing in the Premier League and they are very familiar with Robin van Persie.
Arjen Robben, who had played for Chelsea, was also quite familiar with them, but Robben didn't look at them at all. The Dutch wing's days at Chelsea were not happy.
It was a time he didn't want to recall.
Chen Fan stood next to Sneijder, who played at Ajax before he left for Inter. The midfielder of Dutch football mingled with Ajax players during his time with the national team.
'Don't be nervous, don't put too much pressure on yourself, Ireland doesn't have anything, we're going to win for sure.' Sneijder looked at Chen Fan, who was slightly nervous, and said in a low voice with a smile: "As long as you assist, I will give you a chance to show your speed!" ”
"By the way, tonight was your Dutch debut, but I remember your debuts were very successful. Chen, believe in yourself! ”
Chen Fan exhaled a long breath and nodded and said, "Thank you!" ”
Sneijder continued: "I will let the fans all over the Netherlands know you and make them remember you deeply! ”
Robben, who was behind the two of them, had an ugly face when he heard this, his relationship with Sneijder was average, and Sneijder quickly occupied the main position after arriving at Inter Milan and became the core of Inter Milan's midfield.
Inter's results this season are very good, and the three competitions of the Coppa Italia, Serie A, and Champions League are all red. Winning the Serie A title is no longer a big problem, and the chances of winning the Coppa Italia are also very good, the only uncertainty is the Champions League.
If all goes well, Inter have a good chance of winning the treble this season!
The competition in Serie A is stronger than that of the Bundesliga, there are more giants than the Bundesliga, and it is less difficult for Bayern to win the championship than Inter.
Sneijder is not only the heart of Inter's midfield, but also the heart of the Dutch midfield, and he has an important right to distribute the ball at his feet.
Robben was arrogant, but he still didn't dare to wrestle with Sneijder, and then his life would be difficult.
"Ajax! Damn Ajax! ”
Robben scolded in his heart, but his heart was full of helplessness, Ajax's influence on Dutch football is undoubtedly huge, how many superstars have come out of this club?
How many superstars have come out of the Ajax Academy?
……
Just as the players from both sides were about to enter the field, the media got the starting lists of both sides, and at this point, the controversy over Chen Fan was finally settled, and Van Marwijk returned Chen Fan to the position he was most familiar with.
Not only that, but let him start!
Journalists in the Amsterdam area got excited, as if they had won something.
"Starters! I said he would start! ”
PSV Eindhoven and Rotterdam reporters breathed a sigh of relief that Chen Fan was also good at right-back, at least with one less Ajax player on the pitch.
If Chen Fan plays in midfield, Van der Wiel is likely to start at right-back.
Ajax, Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven, the three Eredivisie giants, are not only competing to the death in the Eredivisie, but also at the national team level.
They will secretly compare the number of players in the Dutch team to their own club.
Under the leadership of the four referees, the players from both sides walked out of the players' tunnel, and the tsunami-like cheers came to the face, and Chen Fan's heart that had just tended to be calm beat quickly again!
Chen Fan stepped into this familiar turf and said to himself: "A new world is coming, boy, you must seize the opportunity!" ”
