On June 9, 2006, the World Cup in Germany opened, and in the first match, the host German team defeated Costa Rica 4-2.

The first game of the Chinese team was scheduled for 3:00 p.m. local summer time on June 13 and 9:00 p.m. Beijing time, which was just right for domestic spectators to watch the game.

China's starting line-up:

Goalkeeper: Li Kui

Defenders (left to right): Sun Xiang, Zhao Xuri, Yang Jie, Feng Xiaoting

Midfielders (left to right): Hao Junmin, Zhou Haibin, Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Lei Heng

Forward: Zhang Yi

On the bench were: Hou Jian, Zhang Yaokun, Zhang Xiong, Xu Yunlong and Li Jinyu.

In this game, Lu Hai asked Zhao Xuri to play the main central defender, which is to use Zhao Xuri's height of 185cm and weight of 80KG, which can limit Adebayo, who is 193cm tall and weighs 75kg, to a certain extent. In Lu Hai's dream simulation game, Zhao Xuri can limit Adebayo relatively well, and Lu Hai pays attention to system defense, and even replaces defense with offense. Lu Hai asked the Chinese team to rely on their familiarity with the Togolese team at the beginning, actively and boldly attack, and the two wings should completely press back the two sides of Togo, and they should be busy defending and dare not attack. The overall line-up was appropriately left-leaning, with Sun Xiang, Hao Junmin, Shao Jiayi, Zhou Haibin and Zheng Zhi all concentrating on the left flank, drawing the entire Togolese team's defence to their right flank. Then he suddenly passed the ball to the right side of the Chinese team, using the high speed of Lei Heng and Zhang Yi to attack Togo's left side, which was another essentially counterattack.

In the 05 league, the championship battles of Jinzhou Deshi, Dongshan Nenglu, Jintian Datai and the capital's Anguo Club went to the last two rounds, and even Zhang Yi, who never went away, broke the convention in the last round. There was a bit of a frustration between the players on several teams. In training, Lu Hai has already seen the signs, but this estrangement has not affected Lu Hai's dream simulation game, Lu Hai didn't say a word about it, but just gave them the grouping according to the original club when training the young players before the Spring Festival, so that they could spend their energy on this, and try to let them have healthy competition.

The day before the match against the Togo team, at the end of the training session, Lu Hai called all the players together and began to turn over the old accounts in the league one by one. In which game did "A" tackle "B"; In which game did "C" overshadow "D", the harmful "D" ate a red card, lost 3 points, and lost the final championship; In the penultimate round, "E's" team bought the referees of "Ji's" team and "G's" team; Several players of the "Xin" team were bought by the team where "Ren" worked. Lu Hai said it one by one in front of the national team players. At the beginning, these players were still thinking about each other's grievances and anger, but later, when they heard that Lu Hai knew about the black whistle and the buying of players, their anger disappeared without a trace.

"Before I became the head coach of the Chinese team, I don't care about what you did, after I became the head coach, you were still relatively clean. Because it's not clean, you can't get into the national team. You haven't done this before, I don't care, I just care about your performance in the World Cup. I have already boasted in front of the people of the whole country that we are at least in the round of 16, and possibly even in the top eight. If you don't let me complete the task, not only some of you, but even the club behind you, I have a way to make him lose a lot, do you believe it? Lu Hai looked over one by one, and several players didn't dare to look at him and lowered their heads.

"I don't care what grievances you have in the past, whoever brings this grievance to the field, especially the national team in the World Cup, will play in the second league for the rest of his life! Do you believe I can do it? ”

This is when it is time to see the red with a bayonet, Lu Hai directly lifted the hole cards, and he is covering up the contradictions between the players with a bigger contradiction - a problem that is enough to go to prison.

Lu Hai doesn't want to repeat the fact that the various contradictions of the national team have affected the performance of Chinese football over and over again in the previous life, thus depleting the original little vitality of Chinese football.

Lu Hai now has enough prestige and power to unite these uneasy players and fight for national honor. This trick is also what Lu Hai remembered when he saw the situation of Italian football in this World Cup, when the entire Italian football community was rectifying the black whistle of match-fixing, Italian players put aside their grievances with each other in order to be able to get out, and united to win the World Cup.

Lu Hai looked at the players who didn't speak, and continued: "I don't want to say anything big, such as 'the whole country is watching you' and so on. But at least tomorrow your parents are watching you, and it's likely that there are many people watching the game with your parents, do you want to make them happy? ”

"Yes!" This time, the players finally began to answer Lu Hai's questions.

"With your family, tomorrow your wife or girlfriend will be in the stands to watch you perform, do you want to make them proud! If you have children in the future, do you want to proudly tell them what you have done for the motherland? ”

This is actually "sealing the shadow of the wife", but the means that China has been using for thousands of years must have his reason, don't men live for their parents, wives and children?

"Yes!" It's louder.

"Go back and think about it. What to do tomorrow and how to do it! ”

On October 13, at 2:55 p.m. local time, in the locker room of the Chinese team, the players had already changed their clothes and were waiting for the final advice of the landing sea. The tactics have been practiced and matured in Lu Hai's dream, and the players' bodies are also in peak condition, and from the brain data, the mentality of the players is not the best, but it is also very good. Lu Hai looked at the players, and a sense of pride arose, "This is my team, they will participate in the most watched competition in the world, and they will fight for the glory and future of Chinese football." This is my team! ”

"You all have eggs in your crotch!" Lu Hai said a dirty word, the players burst into laughter, and Lu Hai laughed too.

"Get on the field! Kill these African primitives! Lu Hai's last sentence was suspected of racial discrimination, but the players were excited because of this sentence.

The Commerzbank Frankfurt Stadium was a covered stadium with no sun exposure problems, and the Chinese national team captain Zheng Zhi was defeated by Togo captain Abalochai, who opted for the kick-off.

Kader and Adebayo stood in the middle circle, as the referee blew a whistle, Adebayo passed the ball to Kadeer, ran forward, Zhang Yi and Hao Junmin also ran towards the direction of the Togo goal, and the Chinese team's 06 World Cup journey officially began.
