Chapter 325: Bad Omen

While the club's coaches and the vast majority of players are on holiday during the World Cup, the club's preparations for the new season have been underway from now on. Clubs at all levels have sent scouts to the World Cup to take what they need from players of all skill levels. Players who perform eye-catching on this stage have a great chance to enter the stage of the five major leagues, and even the attention of giants.

In the box and stand of the Kazan Central Stadium, there were three scouts who came to investigate, and they originally focused on Mexican players, but as Deng Hanwen's performance on the right side overshadowed the Mexican team, their attention began to shift to the Chinese team.

And Deng Hanwen's performance also made these scouts shine, especially the equalizing goal of the Chinese team, which showed them the two most valuable qualities of the full-back: resolute assist and clear judgment.

In modern football, full-backs are the most demanding positions on the pitch, attacking and defending, and requiring the ability to run back and forth and accurate crosses. Deng Hanwen didn't show many excellent traits on the defensive end, but his performance on the offensive end was undoubtedly eye-catching. Especially when he stopped in the box and crossed again, the full-back was able to make this action when he assisted, which shows that this is a player who plays with his brain.

One of the middle-aged scouts wearing sunglasses carefully observed Deng Hanwen for five minutes and wrote a few lines in his notebook: strong assist ability, clear judgment, and reasonable choice. He hails from Real Sociedad in La Liga, and Deng Hanwen is the type of defender who fits the current manager's definition of attacking football.

On the other side of the stand, Rayo Vallecano, who are fourth in La Liga this season, had two scouts watching the game, and as the goal was scored, one of the bald scouts asked: "The right wing-back of the Chinese team is very interesting, Rapp, what do you think?" ”

Next to him was a scout with a scruffy beard and wrinkles, who looked several generations older than this bald uncle, but from the tone and demeanor of the conversation between the two, he could know that he just had typical European and American characteristics, about the same age, but he was more anxious.

The scout named Rapp nodded: "Well, there is a lot of potential, so let's work hard, follow the Chinese team's games, and hit La Liga next season, we need this type of player." ”

Rayo Vallecano failed to attack La Liga this season, but it is undeniable that they are still a very competitive team in La Liga, and in the 2014-15 season, Zhang Chengdong also played on a short-term loan for half a season, which is also one of the few intersections between Vallecano and Chinese fans.

In addition to these two groups of people, there was a more low-key scout at the scene, who left the stadium after taking a picture of this paragraph with his mobile phone in the box, and whispered to himself: "If it weren't for the club's increased interest in Chinese players because of Wen Zhihao, I should have paid attention to those talented players in Japan, and this half of the video is still a little valuable." ”

He is one of the scouts of the Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich in the Asian scouting network, because the Champions League final loss to Wen Zhihao made Bayern more interested in bringing in a Chinese player, just in time for the World Cup to conduct a centralized screening. watched half the game, only Deng Hanwen made him slightly interested.

……

In the first half, Mexico's offense as a whole was more dominant, and the number of threats was more, and the strong positions of the two teams were also different, Mexico had Little Pea and Dos Santos, the forward line was their specialty, and Mexico has always been rich in spiritual strikers, while the Chinese team due to Deng Hanwen's outbreak, the wing was stronger than the midfielder as a whole, Wen Zhihao only made simple passes frequently in the first half, and there was no too eye-catching performance.

However, the first half was able to equalize the score, and there were new highlights, Lippi from the beginning of the game slightly anxious expression gradually relaxed, Deng Hanwen was pulled into the national team by him, before the start of the World Cup, the coaching staff was still divided, Maddaloni believes that the more experienced Zhang Linpeng should be allowed to play fullback, but Lippi still believes in Deng Hanwen, willing to give young people a chance, and now this result once again proves his vision and courage.

Now that the equaliser has been scored, Lippi's mind is naturally to go for a win. Therefore, he used the first substitution in the second half in the midfield, and He Chao, who performed poorly in the first half, was replaced by Hao Junmin, and the Chinese team's midfield was further strengthened.

Mexico were even more reckless in the second half, with their only hope being to try to score again.

For the Chinese team, Lippi's purpose of strengthening the midfield is very clear, strengthening the midfield, and keeping the draw is just the bottom line, and Lippi's bigger goal is to directly use two consecutive wins to qualify for the qualification.

However, the North American players are indeed more excited, often playing better than the Chinese team in the opening stage, and the situation is almost the same as the start of the first half, but this time the Chinese team paid a more heavy price.

In the fifty-first minute, Hao Junmin received Wen Zhihao's pass and mixed garlic at his feet, failed to control the ball in time, the opponent's back Aquino took the opportunity to steal, and then a diagonal pass of about 40 meters was directly given to the penalty area, Dos Santos and Feng Xiaoting accelerated at the same time, but Dos Santos is a small player after all, and he came to Feng Xiaoting first, unloaded the ball steadily, and faced the goalkeeper Zeng Cheng directly!

Single Knife!

Although Dos Santos has a controversial personality, he has a high ball quotient. A one-on-one effort was wasted in the first half, and this time he learned his lesson and did not hesitate at all, picking the ball straight in the direction of the goal while taking a step forward.

Zeng Cheng lowered his center of gravity to disrupt the opponent's low shot, and his body was gliding out against the turf, and he was surprised when he felt the ball diagonally over his head, but at this time he couldn't control his body, and could only let the inertia tackle Dos Santos.

As Dos Santos was a short shot, he missed the spot, and the ball grazed the post and went off the line.

However, before the Chinese fans and He Dawei shouted out the cheers, Serbian referee Majic's whistle sounded.

decisively pointed to the penalty spot, and this is not the end, and then he touched his jacket pocket, took out the red card, and aimed at Zeng Cheng!

He Wei was taken aback: "Ah! Zeng Cheng red card! That's a ...... It's too unexpected, Zeng Cheng's action was not intentional, he couldn't control himself, we recognized the penalty, but it's almost like giving a yellow card, right? ”

The Mexican commentator laughed incessantly: "The great twist has happened!" We are accelerating to victory! ”

The players surrounded the referee to ask for an explanation, and Maddaloni immediately approached the fourth official on behalf of the coaching staff to complain.

And the fans were shocked and angry at the same time.

The goalkeeper is dyed red, and this rare situation is just bumped by the Chinese team, which is a bad omen!
