Chapter 141: It's really lively
The Chinese youth team is full of confidence in themselves, and their preparation atmosphere is quite relaxed, but they do not take it lightly.
Spain's youth team is the team that has reached the final, and although they don't have any talent in their squad, their overall quality should not be underestimated.
It is worth affirming that this final will definitely be a difficult game for the Chinese youth team, just like last year's Asian Youth Championship final against the Japanese youth team.
At that time, there were no too eye-catching talented players in the Japanese youth team, and their biggest star Keisuke Honda was only more of a team role than an individual role.
As an upgraded version of the Japanese youth team's tactical system, the Spanish youth team has a better team cooperation than the Japanese youth team, and their biggest player in the team is also more important than Keisuke Honda.
It is worth mentioning that the biggest star of the Spanish youth team is not their midfield core Xavi, but striker Gabri.
Gabri's presence can play a very huge deterrent role in the goal of the Chinese youth team, coupled with Xavina's much better team adhesion than Keisuke Honda, which makes the Spanish youth team much stronger than the Japanese youth team.
The main source of confidence for the Chinese youth team is their understanding of the tactical system of the Spanish youth team, but it is also this understanding that makes the players of the Chinese youth team deeply aware of the strength of the Spanish youth team.
The players didn't leave anything to chance, and they didn't treat the past semi-finals as their toughest game at the World Junior Championships. The Brazilian youth team did cause a lot of trouble for the Chinese youth team in the semi-finals. But the biggest trouble always comes from the next match, which is the finals of the World Youth Championships!
With this relaxed and important mentality, the players are actively preparing for the final match. And Lin Qi seemed to work particularly hard at this time, he first practiced for a whole day on the second day of the semi-finals, such a high-intensity training, so that even those who understand Lin Qi's attributes can't help but wipe cold sweat.
A full day of training is not too difficult for these professional players, but the difficulty is that it is such a hard training every day, and the difficulty is that Lin Qi has been training the same project all day!
Lin Qi had to do so. There really wasn't much time left for him before the final. In addition to transforming Barty's new experience into his own body memory, Lin Qi also has more important training content to do - chasing the wind and youth training!
After the semi-finals, Lin Qi's free attribute points finally reached ten points, and he redeemed his wish for a second chance to use Owen's body memory from the ball king system.
This opportunity. Lin Qi didn't intend to waste it on the court. Such a precious body memory. Of course, it is training to maximize its effect.
Lin Qi decisively chose to exchange at the end of the semi-finals, and his body memory of Owen has been looking forward to it for a long time. Originally, Lin Qi's plan was to conduct a youth-style training before the start of the World Youth Championships. It's a pity that this goal was not achieved.
But fortunately, before the final of the World Youth Championships, Lin Qi finally got the coveted Owen body memory! He wants to use this physical memory to hone himself, and strive to make himself stand on the stage of the final finals with a new self!
Others don't know how strong the Spanish youth team is, but Lin Qi can't know it better, and he doesn't feel relaxed at all because of the overall confidence of the Chinese youth team, and even Lin Qi feels more pressure on the Spanish youth team than the Brazilian youth team.
Lin Qi, who is a two-man person, knows this Spanish youth team too well, in his previous life, the Spanish youth team won the 99 World Youth Championship, and in the next ten years, the whole world surrendered to the face of Spanish football.
With this Spanish youth team as the team, the Spanish national team won the world championship for the first time in the 2010 World Cup, and they also defended the title in Euro 08 and Euro 12 respectively.
These championships are all remarkable records set by Spanish football.
And the rise of Spanish football, the rise of the Spanish national team began with this edition of the World Youth Championship, when the players of the Spanish youth team have grown into stars who can stand on their own, Spanish football ushered in their most glorious period in history.
Lin Qi knows better than anyone else how terrible this Spanish youth team is. It seems that their tactical system is an upgraded version of the Japanese youth team, but the quantitative change eventually led to a qualitative change, and their tactical system has long gone beyond ordinary team football and has become a new tactic - Tiki-Taka!
Tiki-Taka's tactics based on short passes and possession are not unique to the Spanish national team, Cruyff was the first to propose this tactic, and the Spanish national team and FC Barcelona have carried forward this tactic thoroughly.
The Tiki-Taka tactic is not about strong or talented players, it is about football intelligence!
The so-called football wisdom is what we usually call ball quotient. Zhou Tao is the player with the highest ball quotient in the Chinese youth team, but in this Spanish youth team, a ball quotient like Zhou Tao is not even ranked.
Almost every one of their players has an extraordinary ball quotient, they never play alone, but they turn the whole team into a real whole!
Speaking of which, the Spanish youth team's Tiki-Taka tactics are not too mature, but they also need to be too mature Tiki-Taka, because they are only participating in the World Youth Championships, not the World Cup.
For the youth teams at the World Junior Championships, the immature Tiki-Taka of the Spanish youth team has dominated the absolute power!
In Spain's previous six matches at the youth level, they have averaged a whopping 58 per cent possession. They also have double-digit shots per game.
It's a terrible statistic, and on the pitch, it's often the team that has possession that gives them the absolute advantage of the game.
After all, if the opponent can't even get the ball, then they can't pose much of a threat to their own goal......
Such a high level of possession by the Spanish youth team allowed them to dominate the pitch in every game, and their tactics were not so pretty, but they were exceptionally practical.
Being able to reach the final with a squad without any talent has already proven it at the World Youth Championships.
And that's what fans and reporters don't like about them, their games are so boring that they seem to be passing the ball constantly and incessantly. There has never been a stand-out solo performance.
Even their goals were so underwhelming. As if relying on one kick after another pass to pass the ball into the opponent's goal, what else does such a goal mean? Especially on a youth stage like the World Junior Championships, what does it mean for Spain to be so steady and sophisticated?
Fans and reporters don't like this Spanish youth team, but Lin Qi is quite concerned about their players. In this Spanish youth team. After all, there are a series of players such as Xavi Casillas who will play an important role in international football in the future.
None of them showed enough individual quality at the World Junior Championships. But being able to adapt to the tactical system of Tiki-Taka speaks for itself.
Tiki-Taka is not something that any team can play, and it requires every player on their team to have a lot of quality. If it's like the Japanese youth team. If Keisuke Honda can barely get on the table, he will definitely not be able to implement the tactics of Tiki-Taka......
The individual achievements of the players in the Spanish youth team in the future also prove that they do have quite good individual ability.
As Gabry said: Spain's youth team is not without talent, they are just not obvious enough. On the basis of their more teamwork, even the best players are unlikely to perform more eye-catching in the game than their overall cooperation.
To be honest, the Spanish youth team is actually really strong, and the most important reason why they are not treated by the fans is because this is the World Youth Championship.
At the World Youth Championships, fans don't want to see this kind of team that relies on overall cooperation to win the game, they prefer more talented players like Ronaldinho, players like Lin Qi who can surprise people in every game.
Only this kind of football with heroism is the fundamental reason why the World Youth Championship is so popular in this world.
※※※
At a time when fans all over the world are not interested in the Spanish youth team, there is a country where the media is hyped up about their support for the Spanish youth team to win the final championship.
This country is Japan from Asia, and as a country that is also Asia, the Japanese youth team should support the Chinese youth team.
Even if Japan and China have a deep hatred, for the sake of the image in international football, the Japanese media should publicly express their support for the Chinese youth team.
However, they have sung against the media all over the world, and the Japanese media pointed out that the strength of the Spanish youth team is stronger than that of the Chinese youth team, and only the Spanish youth team is eligible to win the championship of this World Youth Championship!
As for the Chinese youth team, the Japanese media pointed out: As an Asian team, the Chinese youth team can have such results, which is enough to make the fans of the whole Asia proud, but it is difficult for the Chinese youth team to defeat the Spanish youth team in the final.
And the teams that often fight as a whole can have the last laugh.
When the Japanese media reported like this, they did not remember that in last year's Asian Youth Championships, the Japanese youth team that fought as a whole was defeated by the Chinese youth team......
The Japanese media have touted the tactical system of the Spanish youth team, and they have also shown that only this kind of overall football is the general trend of football development in the future!
Japanese media and fans have been following the Spanish youth team since they were eliminated. The Chinese youth team can see the shadow of the Japanese youth team from the Spanish youth team. The Japanese media and fans, of course, can.
They knew they were going to win the title, so they pinned all their hopes on the Spanish youth team. It can be said that every Japanese fan today has become a loyal Spanish youth team fan, or rather, they have become a loyal Tiki-Taka fan.
The performance of the Spanish youth team at this World Youth Championship has made Japanese fans extremely excited, and they seem to see the future of the Japanese youth team in the Spanish youth team.
The direction of Japanese football is football as a whole, and when they see the tactics of the Spanish youth team, their eyes are really shining like hungry wolves.
The Japanese Football Association has made a decision even in the next few years. They want to establish an equal and friendly exchange relationship with Spanish football.
So this time. The Japanese media supported the Spanish youth team, and they wanted to make a good impression in the Spanish media first.
It's a pity that they guessed the beginning correctly and did not guess the end correctly.
As soon as the Japanese media reported it. It instantly attracted the attention of fans all over the world. After all, in the case of the Chinese youth team. Suddenly, some media said that the Spanish youth team was the final champion, and such an alternative report always aroused the curiosity of fans.
After that, the next day. Almost all the newspapers covering the World Junior Games have appeared in the media against the Japanese media.
"The Japanese are really bullshit, and with their influence in football, they deserve to talk about the future of football?"
"It's just sensationalism, and the Japanese football media are doing everything to make a name for themselves, and they can even think of such a shameless report."
"Originally, we thought that Chinese football was the most despicable clown, who knew that Japanese football was more suitable for the title of clown, after their own team was eliminated, they used this kind of contradictory means to attract the attention of fans all over the world."
"I have to say that the hype in the Japanese media has been very successful, and their newspaper sales have increased by at least 30% due to coverage of the Spanish youth team. However, aren't you afraid of being slapped in the face by the Chinese youth team? The Chinese youth team is the best at this kind of thing. This is what the European media reported.
Even the European media have been involved in the crusade against the Japanese media, and the reputation of the Japanese and Japanese football in the international arena can be seen.
These European media are not yet the most noisy, let alone the most violent. Regarding the report that the Japanese media openly supported the Spanish youth team, the most fierce reaction was not the Chinese media as the other party, but the Korean media!
South Korean fans and media went crazy when they saw the Japanese media coverage. Lin Qi is Korean, and you Japanese say that the Chinese youth team can't win the championship, which is equivalent to saying that the Koreans can't win the championship.
This was unbearable for the radical South Koreans, who ridiculed the Japanese media in their reports.
"The Japanese are really hateful, they cursed the Chinese youth team for not winning the championship if they themselves couldn't win the championship, this kind of behavior is simply despicable!"
"After all, the Chinese youth team is also a team in Asia, and it is of course a blessing for the whole of Asia that they can win the championship. And the Japanese media openly support the Spanish youth team, then they are the enemy of the whole of Asian football! "The Korean media said above board, in fact, they are the people who don't want the Chinese youth team to win the championship, because Korean football has always regarded itself as the first in Asia, and if you want to say which country's team can win the world championship first, it should also be their Korean youth team.
But this time, the Koreans chose to stand on the side of the Chinese Youth Team and chose to stand on the side of righteousness, not because of how noble they are, but because these Korean media are constantly promoting, and even they believe that Lin Qi is Korean.
It is because of this that they are willing to vigorously support the Chinese youth team......
Behind the above words, there is more intense language in the South Korean media. They reported: "No, the Japanese media are not only the public enemy of Asian football, they are also the public enemy of the whole world!" ”
The South Korean media gave the Japanese media a big hat.
"There should be nothing wrong with what the Japanese media say about football as a whole and that it will be the future of football. But they made the mistake of imposing this on the World Youth Championships, which is a favorite destination for talented players, and is Japanese football hostile to the talents of other countries because it cannot produce football talents in its own country? "The South Korean media has attracted countless allies in one sentence, regardless of whether other countries themselves have football talents or not, of course they will say that they have.
So, this time, the Japanese media has really become the public enemy of football all over the world......
What can the Japanese do if they choose to ignore or not ignore the reports of the European media denouncing the Japanese media? The arms can't twist the thighs, unless they don't want to mix in the football world anymore, otherwise the Japanese media will not dare to scold them back.
But for the Korean media, the Japanese media are not so polite, and they made the Korean media explode with a word.
"Do you really think Lin Qi is Korean? I don't know what to say! "The Japanese media faced the South Korean media, it was called a hanging bomb, and they didn't even give a little face.
As soon as this sentence came out, it was amazing, and the Korean media and the Japanese media immediately launched a fierce scolding war, and in order to poke each other's sore spots, they almost dug out each other's ancestors for eighteen generations.
Looking at this lively scene, the Chinese media said that it had nothing to do with them. While the Chinese media snickered, they were also making the final publicity for the decisive battle of the Chinese youth team...... (To be continued......)
