Chapter 143: Netherlands VS Slovenia!
In the afternoon, tens of thousands of fans have already poured into the Amsterdam stadium. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe population of the Netherlands is not very large, but every time the Dutch team plays, the home fans are bound to be a tsunami, and there are always a lot of people. As a traditional European powerhouse, the Dutch team has always been very popular among fans, and as an opponent, my idol in football is Robben of the Dutch team - this is evident.
As an away team, we start with acclimatization in the stadium. In the process of stepping on the field, I heard a lot of Dutch fans shouting in English, "Come on Holland, come on Slovenia!" "There were also fans who unfurled banners in English," said the Dutch fans to the Slovenian fans. "It's a harmonious scene. I don't know why that's happening, after all, it's a World Cup qualifier and the Netherlands have to get past us if they want to qualify. Speaking of which, we are in the opposing camp, but I don't know why the Dutch fans are so kind to us.
I told Cesar about this question, and Cesar laughed: "What's strange about this, the Dutch team is too strong for us, they know that we can't win, so there is no hatred between them and us, natural harmony." If it's the Netherlands at home against Spain, Brazil, Italy, and especially Italy, you see what the Dutch fans will hang on the banners. ”
It dawned on me that this apparent harmony was actually a sign of contempt for our football. This reality makes me very depressed and speechless, but the gap in strength between us and the Netherlands is so big, and this gap in strength is there, even if you want not to admit it, there is no way.
In any case, since we have the opportunity to challenge the Dutch team, no matter what kind of eyes the opponent looks at us, we can only have one response - that is, try our best to win, and use the victory to make the other party value us! Luxembourg can push the Dutch team to the brink, only losing the game 0-1, so what about us, as a team with a better strength than Luxembourg, can we give up our illusions and be timid before we play against the Netherlands? No!
We practiced on the field for a short while, and suddenly we heard a huge cheer and applause from the whole stadium! It turned out that it was the host Dutch team who walked into the center of the field and started the pre-match training! My idol Arjen Robben was among them, and famous players such as Robin van Persie, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Sneijder, and Edwin van der Sar were also on the pitch. However, in a little while, they will become our opponents, no matter how dazzling their names are, we must also use our best efforts and tenacious struggle to fight them with all our might!
The pre-game training was not long, and after a short while, we left the field and returned to the dressing room, where Coach Cork arranged for the final preparation meeting before the game.
Coach Kork asked: "Just now on the pitch, you saw the superstars of the Dutch team. Are you feeling nervous? ”
Everyone replied, "No!" ”
Coach Cork said: "Well, it's good, it's good if you don't have it. We must not be intimidated by their fame. Football is played, not spoken, we do our job well, no matter how strong the Dutch team is, it can be done. We can't control the outcome of the game, but we can control the process, as long as we play the process well and are worthy of the Slovenian crest on our chests. ”
"Yes!" We said in unison.
Coach Cork has arranged the starting line-up for this game:
Forwards: Ljubiyankic, Novakovic
Midfielders: Pecnick, Kurtic, Bielsa, Zago Yeruhovic
Defenders: Jokic, Cesar, Kilm, Ilic
Goalkeeper: Vitmar
In this game, Coach Cork had this to say to us:
First of all, to defend well, the back four are of course to target the opposing striker, but the main task of the midfielder is also to defend the opposing player. For offense, there is no requirement, if the play is smooth, comb from the midfield, play a quick counterattack, if the play is not smooth, it is okay to go directly to Ljubiyankic with a big foot. In terms of the specific division of labor, Cesar and Kilm mainly guard against Nistelrui, Jokic against Van Persie, and Ilic mainly guard against Robben's assault. In midfield, my main defensive target was Sneijder, the heart of the Dutch midfield, with Kurtic taunting De Zeu, Pechnik harassing De Jong and Bielsa tackling Van der Vaart. Even the forward line was given defensive tasks - Ljubiyankic harassed De Jong with Pechnik, and the only striker who didn't have to retreat was Novakovic, because he didn't have enough speed to play the ball up front all the time, using his strong body to open the way for those who cut in behind.
Also, when we break the ball and counterattack, we have to be very fast. If you can get the ball out with one kick, try to kick the ball out and give the ball to striker Ljubiyankic as soon as possible, and he will execute the final attack. Novakovic, due to his lack of speed, is just a bridgehead for feints, mainly responsible for making the ball to Ljubiyankic. No matter from any point of view, the ultimate goal is to form a quick counterattack through Lyubiyankic's speed!
In addition, if Ljubiyankic's counterattack at this point is not able to play, use my point, or high-speed breakthrough, or long-range shot, use my two stunts of broken line passing and wave star debris shooting, and play the counterattack of the Dutch team!
If we were lucky enough to get a goal first, we would have squeezed the lineup to a flatter level, bringing Novakovic back to use as a midfield defender, leaving Ljubijkic alone to assault up front. However, once we conceded the ball first, and tactically forced us to attack, we had to attack with no more than four men – Ljubiyankic, Novakovic, Pecnik and me. Kurtic even had the ability to pass the ball with one kick, but because he was not fast, he was ruthlessly deprived of his offensive duties! Unless, in the final stages of the game, we are still one goal behind, in which case we can play a few minutes of Dutch-style all-out attack and defense, with a wave of attack, to fight for the hope of scoring!
With everything in order, we walked out of the dressing room and into the middle of the pitch with the star-studded Dutch team! (To be continued.) )
