Chapter 30: The Australians Are Coming

Li Guo knew that Chen An would not understand, and maybe no one in the world would understand except him, "That's it, football is played, a top 20 game, I can bear it, how about it." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

But Chen An knows that the current trend of public opinion, if he can't win the top 20 match against Australia in the upcoming home top 20 match, then Li Guo's life in this position will be uncomfortable again.

"Li Guo, to be honest, I miss Germany a little bit, I think it was a huge mistake for us to return to China this time, the pressure is great, the income is less, and more importantly, no one understands us."

If he had a choice, Li Guo also wanted to travel to Germany, but since the reality was already like this, Li Guo had to do this job well.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's prepare for the rest of the work."

There is still a full week before the start of the game, the game will be played at the 80,000 people stadium in Shanghai, and the news obtained before the game that all the tickets have been sold out, and the scalpers have closed down because the scalpers have no tickets in their hands.

On the Chinese team's side, the media has been staring, but Li Guo has taken a completely closed training, so there is no news at all, especially the starting situation.

If it was in the past, the media should have been able to guess the starting lineup of the Chinese team, but now it is not possible, Li Guo's employment is basically elusive.

Three days before the game, the Australians arrived, led by their Dutch manager, Welbeck.

Once in Shanghai, all the attention of the media shifted to Australia, quite simply, there are many big names in the Australian team, Colwill, Cahill, Bresciano and other stars, which were difficult to see on the Asian stage in the past.

Colwill said in an interview that the entry into South Africa is the most basic goal of the team, "This should be my last World Cup, if everything goes well." ”

At the airport, Colwill was warmly welcomed by the fans, with a handsome face, inspirational stories, and playing in the Premier League, all of which made Colwill have many fans in China, and for a while, Shanghai seemed to have become the home of Australians.

"Harry"

"Harry"

"Harry"

When Colwill's name rang through the airport, he waved at the fans and showed his charming smile, as a world-class star, Colwill has become accustomed to all this, the enthusiastic fans at the scene made him forget, now in the group, the first place is the Chinese team, Australia because of the disadvantage of goal difference.

The next day, Tim Cook, a reporter from the Sydney Morning Herald, reported with the headline "Australia is welcomed like home in Shanghai", and the whole article was so full of enthusiasm that those who didn't know it thought the game was being held in Sydney.

The Sydney Morning Herald's view reflects the attitude of most Australians, which is that there will be a little bit of difficulty in this game, but it should not be difficult for Australia to get three points away from home.

After all, take a look at these players under Li Guo, all of them are so young and not famous, and then look at the Australian team, all of them are stars who have proven themselves in the Premier League, and from the perspective of the cards, Australians have proud capital.

At a time when public opinion was overwhelmingly optimistic about Australia, it was Li Zibing who came out of place to speak out of tune.

"This game is an opportunity for the Chinese team to prove themselves, and I predict a 2-0 victory for the Chinese team against Australia,"

But this time, no one sprayed Li Zibing, after all, Li Zibing is Li Guo's number one brain-dead fan, which is already known to everyone on the earth, so if Li Zibing doesn't help Li Guo speak in the future, everyone will feel strange.

At the regular press conference before the game, Australia's head coach Pym Welbeck was very polite, in fact, Welbeck knows Asian football very well, and in the 2002 World Cup, it was Welbeck who stood next to Hiddink.

"I'm very happy to be back in Asian football, maybe I have a relationship with Asia,"

Asked about his outlook for the upcoming matches, Welbeck said: "The characteristics of the Chinese team are very similar to the Korean team, I have worked for the Korean national team for a long time, so I feel that I have found a way to beat the Chinese team. ”

"Will Colwill not play, because in the last game against Qatar, Colwill did not play,"

'Anyone in my team has a chance, Colwill is Australia's number one star and probably the greatest player in Australian history, but in the game he has to obey the overall tactics as well.

Throughout the press conference, Welbeck never threw out any dry goods, and appeared very polite, but did not give a specific answer.

When it was time for Li Guo's question, the Australian reporter first gave a very sharp question, "Excuse me, have you found a way to prevent Cowell?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the Western reporters on the scene were snickering, everyone knew that Colwill was the best wing horse in the Premier League, and he was a fullback who killed all fullbacks in seconds, but Li Guo's answer made the atmosphere at the scene freeze.

"I think the first thing for Australia is to make sure Colwill can stay the whole game,"

These words are hidden in the needle, ostensibly concerned about Cowill, but in fact, people who know the ball know that Cowell is a famous glass man, and everyone still remembers the night of the Istanbul miracle in 2005, Cowell was inexplicably injured soon after the opening.

"Is the Chinese team ready to do something unsportsmanlike?" The Australian journalist asked.

Li Guo put on a very aggrieved expression, "I think you misunderstood, I really hope that Colwill can play the full 90 minutes, and I don't want this game to lose suspense too soon." ”

Damn, that's arrogant!

The next question was asked by a Chinese journalist, "Coach Li Guo, my question is, why do you believe so much in those young people, in the eyes of the outside world, they can be described as milky and undry." ”

Of course, Li Guo can't say that this is what my coaching assistance system told me, so he can only prevaricate: "I think the future belongs to young people." ”

The reporter asked, "Then there must be a standard, can you find a random one on the street to become a talent?" ”

"It's hard to explain, and I don't want to explain it because it's my secret."

This answer is very, but it is very reasonable, just like if you ask Van Gaal why he looks at Xavi, who is not amazing, Lao Fan will probably answer the same, after all, vision is difficult to explain.

At the end of the press conference, the Australians showed their strength and Li Guo showed his usual arrogance, which was the best warm-up for the upcoming match.
