Chapter 302: Big Mouth
El Salvador, New Water Sources Arena. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The pre-match press conference between the Chinese team and Uruguay, which is the semi-final of the Confederations Cup, is underway, which naturally attracts a lot of media, especially Asian media.
Because before the Confederations Cup, most Asian media felt that the Chinese team was a strong team in Asia, but when it met a strong team in the world, it was still a break, and no one was optimistic that the Chinese team would qualify from the group.
But time first gave Uruguayan coach Tavares.
Tavares is a godfather-level manager in Uruguay, just like Scolari is in Brazil.
The gray-haired Tavares, looking elegant, waved the microphone in front of him, signaling for everyone to ask questions.
"Regarding Luis Suarez's bite, will it affect his performance in the national team?"
"Luis is a professional player and a good player, I don't think the off-field factors will affect his performance, and he has already been punished, I don't think there is any need to hold on to something, who wouldn't make a mistake?"
Suarez's biting incident was very exciting when it first happened, but now it is inevitably a bit of a fried cold rice, and reporters know about it, so after the first person asked a question, no one mentioned it again.
"As for Diego Forlan, will he be in your World Cup plans next year?"
"Why not?"
"Because Diego is 34 years old, the goal scoring efficiency has dropped significantly."
Diego Forlan is South Africa's Golden Boot at the World Cup and the biggest contributor to leading Uruguay to fourth place in the World Cup, so his future with the national team has always been a top concern for the outside world, even if he is 34 years old.
'If there were no injuries, Diego would have been in my plans, not necessarily a starter, of course.'
The next question is a bit acute.
"Now that Brazil has been eliminated, then Uruguay is the representative of South America, will you be under more pressure?"
Tavares smiled slightly, and then said: "Even if the Brazilian team is not eliminated, Uruguay is the representative of South America, we Uruguay have won the World Cup, the Copa America, we are the fourth in the last World Cup, the results of the Brazilian team are a long time ago, and now Uruguay is the representative of South American football." ”
As soon as this remark comes out, some people may think that Tavares is bragging, but those who know South American football will understand that South Americans feel that they are the best in football.
"Let's talk about tomorrow's opponent, the Chinese team."
"I don't know much about this opponent, I've watched a few of their games, that's all, but I think the team that can reach the semi-finals must still have some quality, so tomorrow's game, Uruguay will give it their all."
After Uruguay's question time, it was Li Guo's turn, and now as long as he confronts Li Guo, the reporter is excited, because Li Guo's mouth is too big, and he can always surprise people, and a topic will break out coldly.
The first question was asked by a South Korean reporter, "I have watched three games in the group stage, and I think the luck component of the Chinese team to qualify is the main factor. ”
"I don't know, but what I do know is that no matter how lucky the Korean team is, it is impossible for them to play in the Confederations Cup."
The reporters at the scene heard Li Guo's words through simultaneous interpretation, and couldn't help laughing, which made the South Korean reporters' faces red and white for a while, and they were very embarrassed.
The second question was a reporter from Globo Sports in Brazil, "Li Guo, your and Sousa's program is very successful, have you ever thought about making this program a few more episodes or even a fixed program during the World Cup next year?" ”
Before Li Guo could answer, there was a burst of applause at the scene, as if encouraging Li Guo to make a decision.
Li Guo smiled, "It seems that everyone wants me to change careers, but I think my goal next year is to make a breakthrough in the World Cup, at least a little better than when I was in South Africa." ”
The implication is that Li Guo will not accept the invitation of Universal Sports again, and I don't know when I will be able to see Li Guo and Romario, the two big mouths, making wild noises on TV.
"How are your players' health, I have seen reports that many players have minor injuries on their bodies, and we know that the Chinese team's bench lineup is not strong."
This is known to everyone on the earth, and Li Guo did not shy away from saying, "Our players are very tired, we are not like other strong teams, there are two players in each position who can be rotated, and many players in the Chinese team have played three full games." ”
'But with the help of our medical team, most of the players will be available for tomorrow's game, so it should be fine.'
The last question, as usual, was asked by a Chinese journalist.
"Coach Li, we observed your use of Zheng Zhi in the first three games, can it be said that there is no place for Zheng Zhi in the current national team."
Li Guo also browsed several domestic portals before coming to the sports version, this issue is a recent hot topic, after all, whether it is the Olympics or the World Cup, Zheng Zhi is the core of the Chinese team's midfield, but now it seems that he is becoming more and more unable to play.
Zheng Zhi debuted early, and there are still a group of fans in China, and these people feel that Li Guo is unkind to do this.
Some people feel that if Zheng Zhi is not used, it is better not to recruit, this is a toss for the veteran, and some fans feel that seeing Zheng Zhi sitting on the bench is a kind of torture.
But Li Guo has always scoffed at these unprofessional and hypocritical opinions.
"I'm sorry, I have the final say on how to arrange the troops in the national team! So many netizens, each with one opinion, if I listen to them all, will the game still be played? ”
"In addition, I want to say that the Chinese team is very united, who plays, who is substituted, all for one purpose, that is, the national team to win the game, here I want to give an example of our opponent, Uruguay, Fran is also more on the bench in this Cup, the veteran pressure is an honor, not ruthless, you know?"
The atmosphere in the venue became very serious, and the usual giggling Li Guo was a little different this time, and everyone didn't know what was wrong.
Only Li Guo understands that the unity of the team is unquestionable, 23 players, who doesn't want to play? But the maximum number of people who can play in a football game is 14 people, starters and substitutes, but as long as 23 people have a trouble, the whole team is not good.
That's why most good coaches mention that the authority of coaching cannot be questioned.
After the press conference, Li Guo briefly shook hands with the opposing head coach, and Li Guo had a hunch that tomorrow's game might be the most difficult for him to play since he took charge. (To be continued.) )
