In the afternoon, the Gdansk Municipal Arena. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Spanish players have already warmed up on the pitch first. Their jersey is an away jersey, a blue color that is rarely seen by the average person. We wore our traditional home kit, the red and white checkered jersey. The red and white checkered is the symbol of our Croatia, and our national flag, our national coat of arms, are all red and white checkered patterns. We were in the dressing room, discussing tactics, when we heard the earth-shattering cheers of the fans on the pitch outside, it was the cheers for the world champions Spain, the voices for the Spanish stars......

"When will we be treated like this?" I was indignant.

"Don't think about it, you want us to have this treatment unless we win this European Championship and then we win the 2014 World Cup in Brazil." Modric said.

"That's right, if we want to win honors, if we want to win the recognition of the fans, the most important thing is our own record. If we can't get better results, we want to demand the recognition of the fans, we want to hear the cheers in the stadium, it's not possible. Captain Srna also said.

"Hmm...... Oh, yes...... Honor must be earned by yourself! "I made up my mind.

I have to score and lead Croatia to beat Spain and get out of the group!

Then, in the knockout rounds, move on and win three more games to win this European Cup!

In this way, at the World Cup in Brazil, the cheering fans will be our Croatian fans, and even the neutral fans will be wearing Croatian plaid jerseys and calling the names of Modric, Rakitic, Mandzukic and me, Chusovikinstic, from the sidelines!

Spain, wait. We, the Croatian team, will definitely give you a little color to see!

Especially, I have never seen a star shot in the world.

I am sure that it will cause great trouble for Casillas!

It's our turn! We warmed up after Spain! I waved my hands and shouted, "Croatia is out!" Cheers, everyone! ”

However, throughout the Gdansk Municipal Arena, there was not much reaction. It was only in the area of Croatian die-hard fans in the few stands that there was a shout. However, the content of their shouts is nothing more than "Modric", "Mandzukic", "Bilic", "Rakitic" and even "Kranica", that is, not one of them shouted "Chusovigintic"! ……

"It's okay, even if there's no one to cheer me on. Just wait a little while and I'll score a goal for Casillas, and by that time, the cheers will be mine. I said to myself secretly.

The tactics of "star shots" and Modric's long pass to me and Mandzukic to combine the header are our secrets, so we can't expose them in front of these tens of thousands of people. So our pre-match training is basically to practice some normal passes, as well as shooting from free kicks and corner crosses. On the opposite field, Spain is quite open, they are three people to pass the ball, two people to grab, this is a small game for training tikitaka tactics - rats grab the ball!

Spain's strongest position is their midfield. Compared to Italy, Spain's midfield is simply a different level. If Italy's midfield is still at the level that Modric can handle, and only Andrea Pirlo is considered a master, then Spain's midfield line is obviously several layers higher than Modric's strength - whether it is Iniesta, Xavi, or Cesc Fabregas and David Silva and other stars, none of them are worth less than Modric. The rat grabbing the ball just now is enough to see the strength of several of them - the passing group composed of Iniesta, Xavi and Fabregas can shake the ball-grabbing group composed of Torres and Busquets, two famous stars, to the ground - the continuous seventeen or eighteen foot passes between the three directly tired Torres and Busquets enough, this kind of strength is simply against the sky!

What can we do against such a strong technical midfield?

Our midfielder is also technical, but there is no doubt that our midfield will definitely be overwhelmed by Spain in terms of creativity and technique! So, what are we going to do to get rid of the entanglement of the Spanish midfielder and play the ball up front, up front?

I thought about it for a long time, and I thought that I was afraid that there was really only one trick - the star chip shot.

"Modric, you have to pass the ball......"

The warm-up was over and we went back to the dressing room with Spain. Bilic was making the final arrangements, saying:

"Everyone understands that Spain's technical prowess is not something that we can easily match. Even if we have a golden midfielder like Luka Modric, Perisic and Rakitic, we are still far from enough compared to their Iniesta and Xavi, the twin stars of football history. If we want to win against Spain, the World Cup winners and the reigning champions of the European Championships, we will have to reduce our entanglements with them in midfield, play the ball quickly, and adopt a simpler and more concise tactic to quickly pass the ball to the forward line, Mandzukic and Chusovikinstic. In the game against Spain, we can only succeed by relying on the advantage of the high point in the front court and taking advantage of the chaotic battle. In the face of Casillas, the strikers must be calm in their shots, including Chusovikintic, you have to know why Casillas is Casillas, it is because he knows how to look for the weaknesses of the strikers better than others, and he knows how to draw out the temper of the opposing striker. If you're in front of Casillas, you're too busy shooting, you're missing transitions, then you're going to break the ball very quickly, and once you've lost possession, it's going to be difficult for us to take it back. ”

"Our tactics, I've already explained in the previous training. You have to remember what I said. Finally, our battle is for the sake of the Croatian people, for the great country of Croatia, everyone must cheer well, do not lose the call of the red and white checkered flag to us! ”

"Good!" All 18 players gathered together and shouted hard!

The race is about to begin! We, and the Spanish team next to the passage, are already standing at the entrance of the exit passage! Led by the referee and caddie, we finally made it to the final group stage!

That's our battlefield!

The 2012 European Championship in Poland and Ukraine, the third round of the group stage between Croatia and Spain, begins!
