In the next half day, other big-name players selected for the national team came to the Brown Hotel one after another to report, many of them were regulars of the national team, so they didn't seem very excited, and David Beckham, the captain handpicked by Li Tongfan, didn't arrive until more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon because of the flight!

To be honest, the moment Beckham heard that Li Tongfan became the coach of the Three Lions, he simply had a feeling of "turning over the clouds and singing".

During McLaren's reign over the Three Lions, although he had a second career at Real Madrid, he was reduced to a marginal figure in the national team for some ridiculous historical reasons, and McClaren did not treat David Beckham, the "favorite" of the Eriksen era, which is already a well-known secret throughout England!

This made Xiaobei a little discouraged after his hard work...... Coupled with the poor performance of the England national team in Euro 08 qualifiers and the worrying prospects of qualification, Beckham once thought that his national team career was coming to an end...... But now, the "mentor" madman Lee is at the helm of the Three Lions, and on the first day of his inaugural press conference, he made it clear that he would be again; The captain of the Li national team, which means that the main position of this iron fight is already vacant! Beckham, who has long admired Lao Li to the bone, seems to have seen the scene of himself winning the European Championship on behalf of the England national team...... It is by no exaggeration to use the poem "Mountains and rivers have no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village" to describe Beckham's mood!

The lobby of the Brown Hotel!

"Hey, David, I came so late, I thought you were going to refuse my call......" The sullen man stood in the hotel lobby, looking at the heartthrob with a large bag, and the laughing thief was also embarrassed: "How is the state maintained?" I didn't let you come here to play as a substitute! ”

"Boss ......" Beckham is still used to calling Li Tongfan like this, but as soon as Lao Li mentioned the status problem, Xiaobei's charming eyebrows wrinkled together: "Recently...... It's a bit not so good! ”

"No problem, hehe, as long as I'm here, the state will cry and shout to come to you!" Lee Tong-beom gently patted Beckham on the shoulder!

Xiaobei's recent performance at Real Madrid is not as good as last season, which Lao Li has known through the media for a long time. After he left, Xiaobei and the alien fat man were "beaten back to their original shape", which was naturally not as dazzling as last season! However, returning to the Three Lions, his own one-acre and three-point land, Li Tongfan is absolutely confident that Beckham will once again show the style of "the world's No. 1 defender"!

After all the players arrived, the team came to Wembley Stadium for their first run-in training in the evening, taking advantage of the slightly cooler evening!

###温布利大球场!

This is a simple group confrontation training, the players were divided into two teams for attack and defense, Li Tongfan stood on the side of the court, with his arms on his chest to carefully observe each player, and the specific training guidance was the old madman Venables!

“…… Cooperate with the people around you and pass the ball fast!! ”

"Concise! It's concise, it's straightforward, you know? ”

"Very well, Frank, you've done a great job! Yes, that's all! ”

"Wow, shit!! Wayne, your shot is such a fucking shit, you're out of luck if I'm Ferguson......"

Venables stood on the sidelines and shouted loudly, and once he stepped onto the football field, the old madman became passionate and swearing...... As the most authoritative senior figure in English football, the Three Lions will respect the old madman no matter how big the star, so Vinables' swear words are similar to Rooney's encouragement from the stern elders, and after the little fat man received Frank Lampard's pass and fired the anti-aircraft gun, the old man's reprimand made his teammates laugh...... Li Tongfan carefully observes the attitude of each player in the game, for the old Li who holds FM2008, the ability is not a problem, as long as a player has a serious enough attitude towards the game, Li Tongfan is willing to put him in the starting list!

And judging from the current observation, England's big-name stars are performing very well, especially Anton Ferdinand, Manzioni, Sturidge and other newcomers, like crazy little wolf cubs, trying their best to win the appreciation of the coach, and driven by the newcomers, the old players can't help but work hard!

What kind of character is the madman Lee, the media and fans have already said it thousands of times in their ears, from the moment this man took office, he did not hesitate to remove the captain's armband that John Terry had not yet wore, and he knew that he was not a vegetarian and did not want to be the "monkey" who was killed......###8月22曰!

After two days of rare sunny days, gray clouds began to appear over London again, but this did not stop the most fanatical, singing, shouting, eye-stealing and fighting England fans in the world, who are known as the world's most fanatical, singing, shouting, eye-stealing and fighting, to cheer on the Three Lions!

Although the Anglo-German battle started at 19:00 in the afternoon, from 10 o'clock in the morning, there were already fans around Wembley Stadium who began to wait!

At about 11 o'clock in the morning, the visiting German team had one last acclimatization training here, when the bus carrying German players drove near the players' tunnel, thousands of shirtless English macho men rushed to the bus, slapped the bus compartment hard, raised the white middle finger with a hideous expression, and sent the German players in the bus with an international "family greeting" starting with F or S...... If it weren't for the security guards at the stadium working hard to protect them, it is estimated that the German players would have been beaten into pig's heads by the fierce men of England before they got out of the car and entered the players' tunnel!

Such a scene is not exaggerated in the slightest!

No matter when and where, in any Anglo-German battle in history, fans treat the opposing players as enemies, and if they can give the enemy a hard blow, no fan will mind doing this!

And that's not all, even when the German team entered Wembley Stadium for training, the fanatical England fans were very "organized and disciplined" to tear their throats and transmit all kinds of insults to the stadium through air vibration!

This moment, football brings the war back!

###当德国队下午再次坐着大巴开赴温布利大球场的时候, three highway patrol cars in front of the road, and dozens of patrol motorcycles on both sides escorted it, just like the royal family of England patrolling...... Due to the provocation of the fans in the morning, the safety of the German team was heavily protected by the City of London Police!

18:00 p.m.!

Wembley Stadium is officially on English tracks. Because it was only a friendly match, there were very few German fans in Wembley Stadium, which can accommodate more than 80,000 people, only about 2,000 people, and they were compressed in a corner of the southwest stand, like a small oasis in the desert, silently releasing the indomitability of the Germans!

“…… This is the first game since Crazy Lee took office, and England fans desperately need a hearty victory to wash away the shame of the McLaren era, but the situation is not very good, the opponent Germany team in the past six months of the record seems to be a little more sophisticated, they are excellent in the European Championship qualifiers, 7 wins in 7 games and ranked first in the group...... "famous" British Annihilation", Sester, the former BBC TV commentator who became the most unpopular football commentator in the British Isles, was invited to narrate the match after cheering for Maniac Lee and Real Madrid in the just-concluded Champions Cup final!

Speaking of Sester's experience in the past few months, because of what happened in the Champions Cup final, Sester received a letter of dismissal from BBV TV before returning home from Athens, Greece, because his commentary in the final with a clear bias angered Arsenal fans, and Gunners fans held a day and night of demonstrations in front of the BBC radio building!

And because of Sester's "unrepentance" in the interview with reporters after that, he still insisted on shouting for the madman Lee's "shameless behavior", which made him elected the title of "England's most unpopular football commentator" in the "Sun" questionnaire survey...... Because of the boycott of the fans, Sester couldn't find a job as a football commentator on more than 20 large and small TV stations in London...... However, fate played a little joke with Sester, just like the madman Lee performed a miracle on the court, his own fate was reversed like a miracle in just half a month!

When the madman Lee became the head coach of the England national team, the public opinion of the British Isles suddenly turned 180 degrees, and all the media sang in unison the greatness of the madman Lee, and even Arsenal fans were willing to "magnanimously" stand in front of the camera regardless of previous suspicions and shout two voices "The Song of Crazy Lee", and Sester changed from an "enemy of the people" to a "national hero" overnight, and England fans have been asking Sester to come back to explain the national team's game...... When BBC TV handed the letter of appointment to Sester again, the English uncle with the hot surname did not hesitate to tear it to pieces, and then threw the confetti on the fat and sneering face of the TV director, and joined the BBC's rival - England National Television without looking back!

So, Sester, who was sitting at Wembley Stadium today to explain the international game, had a feeling of pride on his eyebrows, and his new commentator partner was very famous - former Three Lions first centre-forward Lineker!

"What do you think of this game......" Sester turned his head and asked his partner: "Gary, as the soul of the former national team, can you comment on the two teams?" ”

Lineker smiled and shook his head: "The current situation of the England team is not good, the decline of the McLaren era has continued until now, and the German team has maintained an amazing form in the last few international games, if nothing else, the Germans will have a better chance......" Speaking of this, Lineker paused and quickly added: "Of course, as an Englishman, I want to be able to go out on purpose, and the biggest variable is on the crazy Lee, if he can bring the level of coaching from club time to the national team." , so maybe you can really get the fans to leave Wembley Stadium with a smile today......"

###英格兰队更衣室!

"Listen to the cheers outside, the fans need a victory, and it must be a big victory...... "The cheers of the fans felt that the whole locker room was trembling, and Li Tongfan looked at the stars with different expressions, and his expression was serious: "It's not just the fans...... You, and me, each of you needs a hearty victory to defend your position...... You know what this game means, don't let me down, or ...... I will disappoint you even more! ”

This is **naked intimidation!

But it does have enough weight to say it in the mouth of the madman Lee!

As the chief descendant of Crazy Lee, David Beckham was the first to respond to the boss's call: "Don't worry, sir, each of us has a heart to pursue the glory of the championship, for the glory of England!! ”

"For the Glory of England!!" Manzioni and Stori chanted in unison!

Wayne Rooney, the little fat man, stood up, made a serious fist swing and swore and said solemnly: "Looking at today's situation, I think I need to score a hat-trick in the match......"

"Then I'll give you three assists with a grudge of it!" The winger from Middlesbrough Downing had an even more stinky look on his face! After a few days of contact, Li Tongfan found that this guy is the same as Joe Hart, he is also a megalomaniac!

However, as soon as the two hammers were trick-or-treated, the atmosphere suddenly became lively!

Lao Li nodded with satisfaction, then walked quickly to the front of the tactical board, picked up the gouache and began to write the starting list!

Compared to the German team, which has announced its starters a day earlier, the Three Lions' starting list has not been released, speaking of which, this is also the habit of Crazy Lee, generally speaking, watching Crazy Lee's game, you can only know the team's starting after the referee blows the opening whistle!

All the hammers are glued to the tactical board, especially with several former fringe internationals of the national team such as Gareth Barry, Philips Neville, Anton Ferdinand and the newly selected young players, and this will be the moment that will decide their fate!

German team dressing room!

Loew looked at his disciples calmly and emphasized the team's tactics again: "Crazy Lee is an attacking maniac, his offensive tactics look simple, but the effect is surprisingly good, so we need to counterattack defensively in this game, especially on the wings of the England team, and we must focus on ......"

Speaking of which, Loew looked at the two full-backs, Lahm and Schultz, and crossed the pitch on the tactical board to draw a line: "Crazy Lee has recruited a lot of fast wide players in this edition of the national team, and Philips and Schultz are tasked with limiting England's wide crosses, and you can't move beyond that line in the first half......"

"The opponent's penetration in the middle is not strong, this will be our chance, my requirements are: short passes on the ground, fast balls, more ...... behind the opposing centre-backs"

###18：50！

When referee Steven Taylor led the players from both sides slowly into the field from the players' tunnel, the first wave of the tsunami erupted at Wembley Stadium, raging like a hurricane from the far Atlantic, and even the whole of London began to tremble with the enthusiasm brought by football!

More than 70,000 English fans began to stand up and cheer for the home team to the beat~~~~~ while less than 2,000 German fans worked like a small barge in a stormy sea, which was quickly overturned and disappeared without a trace...... "The game is about to start, the players on both sides have entered, and the first thing that sounded in Wembley Stadium was the national anthem of the visiting German team...... "Although it has been abandoned for more than a month, the famous mouth Sester still quickly entered the state: "The German team discharged a typical 442 formationMiroslav Klose partnered Prince Porti Luca Podolski in the forward line, and behind them were captain Ballack, Piggy Schweinsteiger, Bremen midfielder Frings and Hitzelsberg from Stuttgart, the four defenders were Philips Lahm, Metzelde, Medsak and Schulz, and goalkeeper Tim Hildebrand...... Loew fielded the main line-up and it seems that the Germans have also taken this game seriously enough......"

After Sester introduced the German team's facelift, Lineker tacitly introduced Lee's England first appearance:

Rather than using his already well-honed 4-1-2-1-2 tactics of Real Madrid, Lee's line-up was a 4-1-3-1-1 one-striker, with Wayne Rooney as the lone arrow, Frank Lampard, David Beckham and Gareth Barry forming the central axis of the England team, Downing from Middlesbrough and Liverpool on the flanks, and Ashley Cole, John Terry, and Ashley Cole, John Terry, and Ashley Cole, John Terry, on the flanks. Anton Ferdinand and Philips Neville, the goalkeepers are ...... Oh God, it's Joe Hart ......"

While Lineker was still exclaiming, there was another cheer in the stadium, and the game officially began!

The away team Germany won the ball, Podolski knocked the football back to Ballack behind him, and then Klose turned and rushed towards the English half, because Rooney pressed too hard, Ballack had to continue to pass the ball back to Frings behind him!

But Rooney did not give up and continued to press Frings like a crazy little meat tank, and the Bremen midfielder had to pass the football back, and after three or four downturns, the football came to the feet of goalkeeper Hildebrand, and the German team's plan to use the opening ball to play a fast attack was dashed by the active scrambling of the England players...... Whoa~~~ The stands remembered the applause like a tide!

"It's a good sign, the players are very positive, completely different from the McLaren era, it seems that the madman Lee has changed the mental outlook of the team in just a few days......" Sester, who has completely become an admirer of Lee Tongfan, sent a timely sycophant: "Gary, what do you think? ”

Lineker is also immersed in the shock of 20-year-old Championship side Rochdahl's rookie goalkeeper becoming the starting goalkeeper for the England national team: "It's really different from before, but you can't just work hard, football is not a game of reckless people now...... Joe Hart had only played one Premier League game for Manchester City before that, so why would the madman Lee think he was better than Robinson or James? Crazy Lee's change is bold, but against an opponent like Germany, a veteran player with enough experience is someone to trust......"

"I don't think that'......" Sester immediately retorted: "Young players are England's future, it's just a friendly game, only by playing against a strong team like Germany can the little ones grow up quickly......"

On the field!

In accordance with the requirements of head coach Loew, the players of the German team mainly penetrated in the middle and played steadily. Two full-backs with excellent assist capabilities, Lahm and Schultz, both obediently stayed in their own half and stood on the defensive!

But the situation soon exceeded Loew's expectations!

Rather than giving up his vaunted winger tactics, Madman Lee's clever choice of 4-1-3-1-1 strengthened England's defense in the middle, with Gareth Barry and David Beckham firmly blocking Germany's push from the middle!

At the same time, the recovery of Lahm and Schulz gave England wings Downing and Steven Gerrard plenty of space to start the sprint, and frequent low crosses made the German team in the box full of noise...... Such a formation is like a big crab, blocked by a hard thick shell in the middle, and on both sides are sharp pincers!

What's even more cunning is that England's crosses are also very characteristic - all close to the ground!

Such a pass made Merdesack and Metzelde, who had a clear height advantage but a little slow foot, complained, and the little fat Rooney alone made the two German big men suffer with his nimble movement, while the German midfielder Fries and if Hitzelsberg returned to the penalty area to support, the cross from the English wing would be reversed and knocked back to the outside of the box...... Frank Lampard and David Beckham were both great long-range shooters, and in the first eight minutes of the game they had each had a very desirable long-range chance, and had it not been for Hildeblang to defend and deflect it, the German goal would have been breached...... On the sidelines!

Loew's brows furrowed, and he had to admit that the crazy Lee had been pressing not to announce the starting list and had indeed caused trouble for the German team, and the 4-1-3-1-1 tactic was also beyond Loew's expectations!

Loew has carefully studied the characteristics of each player in the 26-man squad of Crazy Lee, and thought that Crazy Lee would follow his invincible 4-1-2-1-1 in the Real Madrid era in order to ensure the victory of the first game of the national team, but now everything that is happening on the field makes Loew understand that he underestimated this opponent who is younger than himself!

The cunning Chinese, the reputation of [God on the side of the football field] is indeed well deserved!!

However, such a change can only be a momentary power, not the king, as a well-known tactician in football, Loew quickly came up with a countermeasure, but before he could direct the players to make changes, an accident happened on the field...... On the field!

After Frijns got the ball, he hit the middle again according to the manager's request, and the ball dodged the pressure of Gareth Barry, and passed it to the captain in front of him, Ballack, Podolski and Klose immediately pulled the England team's central defender to start running, but unfortunately Ballack's through ball was cut off by David Beckham, another England midfielder who was put back in place...... At this moment, the role of the madman Lee arranging Barry and Beckham's double back is revealed!

Becky passed the football out for the first time after the tackle, for the German team, this was an accurate and lethal pass, just now they were still on the attacking side, but in the blink of an eye they were counterattacked by England, and the German team's defense was flawed in a hurry...... Beckham's pass was programmed by a computer to go straight past the German backline of Medsak and Metzelde, but it made goalkeeper Hildebrand unable to drop the score...... Rooney successfully countered offside and shot directly and savagely in the face of Hildebrand!

The ball whizzed through Hildebrand's outstretched arms like an angry cannonball, slamming into the net, and the sheer force and high-speed spin made Hildebrand hear a refreshing squeak and rubbing sound...... Then, Wembley Stadium erupted!

The whole Dunlun trembled!

“…… Goooooooooal-Goal~~~~~ David Beckham's beautiful tackles and passes!! Wayne Rooney's beautiful shot!!! It was a beautiful TMD match from start to finish!! The bayonet glistened like a cold light...... The German team did not react at all...... Seist's roar was on the minds of all England fans: "In the 10th minute of the first half, Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney gave us the lead...... It was a very clear tactical victory, and the madman Lee's platoon was victorious......"

The camera quickly focused on the coach's bench with Sester's commentary, and the smiling madman Lee was giving a thumbs up to the players on the field, and Rooney also ran over to high-five Lee Tongfan after scoring the goal!

Every player in the England team knows who the biggest credit for this goal belongs to, and the boss's tactical arrangements before the game played a decisive role! Compared to McLaren, Crazy Lee's tactical setup is obviously more targeted, at least the players will have a clear goal when they play on the field! The restraint of tactics gave England's players an unprecedented feeling of being at home on the pitch!

In front of Sester's demonstration-like shouts, the commentator's partner Lineker smiled and praised: "Concise coordination, efficient and practical scoring tactics, I have to admit that the madman Lee has taught his predecessor McLaren a lesson, and his opponent Loew a lesson...... Listen to the huge cheers coming from the Wembley stands and you know that the new Three Lions boss has won the hearts of all England fans in just ten minutes......

However, Lineker quickly changed his tune: "But now is not the time to celebrate the victory, Loew is also a master tactician, and I believe that the German team will soon come out of their tactical mistakes...... John Terry and Anton-Ferdinand's two-man centre-back duo is not good enough, and Anton's quality is not far from that of his older brother Leo...... Even more lethal is that 20-year-old goalkeeper Joe Hart is really not reassuring, and if the German team can get a chance to shoot, England will be in danger......

The goalkeeper position is a pain in the hearts of all England fans, since David Seaman retired, England has never had a goalkeeper who is eye-catching, perhaps this is also the reason why the madman Lee recruited rookie Joe Hart!

But Sester clearly doesn't think so: "Loew is really good at tactics, but Crazy Lee is not bad either, I think Joe Hart is very good, maybe he will surprise us?" ”
