Chapter 290: Liu Shen's successor

It's always after the game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The big battle between England and France, the result of the game was surprising, England won is not a surprise, the key is the strength of the England team and the final score during the game.

In fact, the two are the same concept.

The impression of England is that the strikers lack the means to score goals, no matter what team they play against, they always lack goals, and there are very few big wins, let alone against a strong French team.

England and France have faced each other in the past few decades, and neither team has scored more than two goals in 90 minutes, but England beat France 3-0 in the group stage of the European Championship in a surprising scoreline.

The Sun commented: "England showed something in the game that they didn't have before, and the most notable thing was the efficiency of the attack! ”

After analyzing the 90 minutes of the game, many media outlets illustrated the problem with realistic data, "Looking at the whole game, England did not have much advantage, they only had 13 shots on goal, while France also had 11, England had 13 shots, 8 of them were outside the box, and two headers, but they scored 3 goals, and France did not score a goal." ”

The numbers speak for themselves.

Three goals were scored from 13 attempts, an average of one in 4.3 attempts.

Although the England team showed the efficiency of the attack, various football analysts could not explain why, and conversely, what could explain the efficiency of the long-range shot from the outside? It's all up to the players!

Does this have anything to do with head coach Wan Sheng?

The British media doesn't see it that way, if the team can always perform well, why can't it before, as soon as Wan Sheng is coached, the team's forward efficiency is high?

The final reason comes down to Wansheng.

"Wansheng at least brings full fighting spirit and belief to the team, and confidence can often play better......"

This is the explanation given by the English media.

Apart from the results of the game, two other points that stood out were the performance of the England players.

The two key players of the game - Morris and Gerrard.

Maurice's late goal was a perfect individual performance as he burst into the box with the ball and shook off France centre-back Rami in an imaginative move before slotting home a volley. After the game, France Football gave Morris a perfect score of 8 and stated, "Morris is the core of the England team, and he played very well in this game, both as a team and as an individual. He was the biggest contributor to England's big win! ”

Walcott and Steven Gerrard scored seven and 7.5 points, respectively.

According to France Football, Steven Gerrard was even better, with a 'somewhat scary' long-range shot that helped England score the second goal and almost made France despair.

Theo Walcott scored the first goal but was lacklustre throughout the game, so he scored just seven points.

"French Football" used "careless" to describe the injury of French goalkeeper Lloris, and other media will not let go of this big head, and many media have issued corresponding shouts-

"Gerrard's horrific shot threatens the goalkeeper's safety!"

"Loris became the first victim! Wary! There will be more in the future! ”

"Danger! Attention Gerald! ”

“……”

In the headline of the article, if the fans who don't know still think Gerrard is a terrorist, in addition, some French players in interviews in the mixed zone also said that they are a little afraid of Gerrard's shot.

"I can't believe Lloris will be kicked by a shot!"

"Maybe he was too big, but anyway, it was a powerful shot and it was terrible!"

'Steven Gerrard is a very good player and any team has to be cautious of him!'

In response, Gerrard laughed in an interview and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, he was injured, I didn't mean to." I just wanted to score the ball......" and joked, "If I can kick the goalkeeper on purpose, then I can switch to Superman......"

Gerard's graciously apologetic gesture won the favor of many French presses.

The other person is the opposite.

Wansheng!

The French media reporters had a headache for interviewing Wan Sheng because they had to face the ridicule of the 'winners', and Wan Sheng would not let them go, because these media had questioned England's victory before the game.

"I've said a long time ago that the French team is not a problem. We are the team that will reach the final and we will definitely win the first game of the group stage. Wan Sheng smiled, not modest at all, "I want to do what I say, we won." ”

"Actually, we don't have to win the game, after all, it's only the first game, but unfortunately, the opponent is a little too weak, they don't seem to have much ability to resist......

This sentence not only annoyed the French media, but also made the entire French team and fans lose any favor towards Wansheng.

Of course, Wansheng doesn't care.

Wan Sheng didn't have any good feelings about the French team, and some of the players were still playing for his team, but the players are players, the team is the team, and the French team is always so arrogant, as if they will always be world champions.

After the press conference, Wan Sheng returned to the locker room.

The players are still talking about the game.

Wan Sheng didn't say anything, just looked at it with a cold face, and then everyone gradually stopped talking, and after everyone quieted down, Wan Sheng said, "Just the first round, there is nothing to be happy about, forget about the victory, there are still many games waiting for us!" ”

Suddenly, many players wilted.

Wan Sheng is like a professional person who pours cold water, everyone is very excited to talk about the game, he did not praise and encourage, but came to this sentence, in fact, he did this to remind everyone, don't get too excited, if you go to the next game with pride, then what awaits them is likely to be a loss.

No matter what kind of event, it's only after the last game that it's time to celebrate.

It's not time yet.

Wan Sheng was not completely poured cold water, he continued, "I know you are all happy to win, but this is in the plan, yes, my plan, if you lose the game, it will be unexpected!" ”

"Against France, we won, whether it was one goal or three goals, it didn't make a difference, to hell with history! We only got three points and the rules don't give us four just because we scored three goals. ”

"Next, you have to always remember that we are a team that can reach the final, no team can stop us, everyone has to remember that! This is important! ”

'It's the first game, it's the first win, then we need to prepare for the second game, win the second game and we'll be able to get into the knockout rounds for sure, that's our goal for the time being, but only temporarily.'

After Wan Sheng finished speaking, he smiled at everyone, "Finally, let me say again, your performance this year is good!" ”

"Hoo ......"

As the words came out, there was a burst of exhalation in the locker room.

Wan Sheng is actually not very old, but when he speaks seriously, he always gives people a kind of pressure, and when he laughs, it makes people feel very kind.

The players in the dressing room have endured the transition from pressure to cordiality in a short period of time.

They let out a long breath!

But what is certain is that after this contest with the French team, the team's fighting spirit and confidence have increased a lot, and many players are more convinced of Wansheng's coaching ability.

――――

In the continuous media coverage, the England team went to Krakow, Poland for recovery training.

After a big game, players need a period of recovery both physically and mentally, the football training master system can only help players recover their physical fitness, mental recovery is also very important, in the case of conditions, Wansheng still gives players a free and easy way to train, so that the whole team can recover quickly.

In the second game of the group stage of the European Championship, England is about to face Sweden.

On the first day, Wansheng only arranged recovery training, and also asked the players to do an interesting training: in the hot spring, one by one the players used their heads to pass the ball.

This training gives everyone a sense of spirituality.

One by one, the players scrambled for the ball, and kept shouting, the scene and atmosphere were very active, Wansheng rarely 'generous', let a few reporters come to take pictures.

"Isn't this Chinese so old-fashioned...... the reporter who came to have a slightly better impression of Wansheng.

Later, on the second day, Wan Sheng added some new training content to the team, in addition to some of the players' personal recovery training, there were also some offensive means training.

In the match with the French team, Wansheng found that some players were too old-fashioned, and they had to choose the most difficult way when there was a better way, so Wansheng arranged some high passes, short passes to the middle and set-pieces, which can make the players, especially a few frontcourt players, familiar with how to make choices in front of goal.

Wan Sheng didn't care too much about what effect a day's training could have, after all, the time was too short, and it was only regarded as 'entertainment' training, so that the team could relax.

These are just auxiliary means.

The focus of Wansheng is to give a few frontcourt players a special explanation of the coordination tactics.

This has nothing to do with the football training master system, it is completely Wansheng's coaching experience in the past few years, especially in the past two years in Atletico Madrid, leading a Spanish team that is very good at attacking, there will inevitably be some offensive experience gains, and the Spanish team has a variety of front-court scoring methods, the English team is very lacking in player cooperation, such as when playing with the French team, the cooperation between the side and the middle, most of them are a long pass, or a high-altitude ball, that kind of play is too 'backward', too easy to be restricted.

Wansheng needs to make the frontcourt players understand the importance of short passes, and they need to make some short passes occasionally to diversify the frontcourt coordination.

There is no need to worry about the middle lane in this regard.

With Morris's middle, he can always play very well, Gerrard is also a very good player, and the middle led by the two is still reassuring, so the most important thing is the wing, some wing players don't know how to pass the ball to the middle, and they are always 'personal heroism' direct long passes, which are very easy to be restricted by the opponent.

Wansheng's explanation of the tactics is some small routines, such as how to make the opponent unable to defend after a few passes, and for example, how to pass the ball back when being restricted by the opposing player, and how to run after passing.

These are still more complicated.

When it comes to the game, it is difficult to use the things that are really explained, and it is very difficult to improve in a short period of time by relying more on the individual ability and subconscious things of the players.

Wansheng doesn't ask everyone to improve big, he just wants to have a reminder to the players.

In professional football, there is nothing to 'learn' from professional players to the point of 'getting into the England team', and there are very few coaches who can coach these players, because they are already the best stars in the world, and at most they can learn from some of the experience of their 'predecessors', and in terms of tactics, they have heard too much.

Some players, such as Ashley Cole, didn't think it was interesting at all when they first heard Wan Sheng's explanation, but after listening to some of it, he became much more serious.

These things aren't something you hear very often.

Although some tactical coordination aspects are actually difficult to use in the game, they are only 'theoretical', but they are still very referential, which can allow you to have more ways to choose in the game, or in other words, you can improve your ability to read the game by thinking more.

Wan Sheng doesn't know what the players think, they just need to listen carefully, as long as they listen carefully, when it comes to the game, they may have a better performance, at least there is no harm.

This is the only thing Wansheng can do in the short time between games.

――――

As England prepare for the match against Sweden, Wan Sheng has a few other things.

The London Olympics are just around the corner.

The London Olympics has nothing to do with Wan Sheng, and the British Olympic Organizing Committee did not invite Wan Sheng to attend the opening ceremony, but there is an athlete in the Chinese team who has a lot to do with Wan Sheng, that is, Xie Wenjun, the spokesperson signed by Tagore Wan Medical Device Company.

In the Chinese Olympic team, Xie Wenjun is not outstanding, he was once considered the 'successor of Liu Shen', but he has not had any special results.

In May 2008, Xie Wenjun ran a time of 13.51 seconds, becoming the youngest men's 110m hurdles Olympic A standard athlete in the world, which is also the only time he can achieve so far, but in the context of Liu Xiang's 'Olympic champion', few people know Xie Wenjun.

Xie Wenjun looks good, but because he doesn't have much fame, it is not good for Tagorevan Medical Device Company's promotion of products.

At that time, Wansheng signed Xie Wenjun, and many people in the company were puzzled, but Tagorewan Medical Equipment Company was Wansheng's private company, and the shares were in the hands of Wansheng and Kevin Tagore, and the specific decision-making power could be said to be completely in the hands of Wansheng, and others, even the company's senior personnel, could not say anything.

But they didn't support Wansheng's decision in their hearts......
