Chapter 47: A Meeting

It seems that not many people have ever done this kind of thing to call teammates for a meeting as soon as they lose a goal. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info As a captain, a leader will use words and actions to boost morale after conceding a goal, which is normal, but the meeting is ...... What kind of meeting?

Although the players of the National Olympic team were surprised, they still listened to Zhou Yi's words and gathered together, even the striker He Ying was no exception.

While the Japanese team celebrated the goal, the Chinese players returned to the penalty area and gathered around Zhou Yi.

'It's not a big deal, it's just a goal. In the crowd, Zhou Yi said. "It's a final, and it's not a waste of people who can make it to the final, so it's not surprising that someone scores a goal. The key is what to do when we lose the ball? Did you find out, the Japanese team used pressing tactics in this game, so we were all uncomfortable. This goal was actually caused by maladaptation. It's not a big deal, it's not like we haven't encountered it, isn't it the Korean team? What happened in the end? It's not that we have to be eliminated? So as long as we stabilize our mentality and slowly deal with them, there is nothing to be afraid of. Actually, we have a lot of opportunities. The more they rob, the more holes there will be. ā€

Zhou Yi did not try his best to boost the morale of his teammates, but analyzed the situation faced by both sides in a very calm tone.

Japan's pressing tactics did catch the Chinese team off guard after the game began, making the players of the Chinese Olympic team very uncomfortable.

But after listening to Zhou Yi's words, everyone's hearts gradually settled down. He's right, we've seen it when we faced South Korea, and the South Korean team is the best at playing like this, wasn't it still killed by us?

Can the Japanese team's grinding gun-like rush be better than the South Korean team?

"That's right, hit their counter-attack, pass the ball straight to the front!" someone also suggested.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi shook his head and rejected his suggestion: "No, we can't do this yet." Although there are a lot of gaps behind their backline. But if we play counter-attacking under their pressing, we will only make more mistakes. Once you miss the ball, you will face their onslaught. So when the ball is at our feet, don't rush to pass the ball forward, but still have to be patient. They want to win in chaos, so we can't mess up. They want to play speed, so let's play Tai Chi with them!"

Zhou Yi said it very vividly, and everyone nodded one after another, indicating that they understood.

Seeing this, Zhou Yicai clapped his hands: "Okay, after the celebration, let's go back to our respective positions." ā€

Everyone dispersed, Yang Muge followed Zhou Yi's side to the outside of the forbidden area, and suddenly asked: "But Zhou Yi, that Yamaguchi firefly has been following you......"

Zhou Yi waved his hand: "It's nothing, he just follows if he likes." ā€

"But it's clear they're targeting you......"

"I didn't learn this from you, Old Yang. I wonder if they watched the video of the match between Borussia Dortmund and Schalke 04. ā€

When Zhou Yi said this, Yang Muge was speechless, in that game, he was almost like this to defend Zhou Yi......

Seeing that Yang Muge was silent, Zhou Yi smiled: "Okay, don't worry." You defended me like that in that game, did you win? No, right? So they can't win this game either. ā€

He spread his hands.

Yang Muge heard him say this, and he really didn't know whether to be happy or frustrated - he was so defensive against Zhou Yi at the beginning, and he couldn't prevent Dortmund from winning, so Zhou Yi used this as evidence to prove that the Japanese team couldn't contain him.

But there is still a question: "The quality of the Dortmund players and our ......"

"Are you doubting yourself, Old Yang?" Zhou Yi asked rhetorically.

"It's not. ā€

"And you're suspicious of the other teammates?"

"Of course not!" Yang Muge hurriedly waved his hand.

"Isn't that the end of it? I admit that we are not as good as Borussia Dortmund overall, but the Japanese team is not as good as Schalke 04. So we can still win. ā€

After conceding the goal, there was a shadow on the Chinese coach's bench and bench, but soon everyone saw that the players were gathered together under the convening of Zhou Yi......

"What is this doing, Chiang?" Blazevic asked his translator, Jiang Xiaojun.

"Uh, I don't know......" Jiang Xiaojun looked confused. But he quickly found the answer: "It should be a morale boost, like everyone getting together before the game......"

Blazevic nodded, he was satisfied with Zhou Yi's performance. Although he lost the ball, he saw Zhou Yi's leadership ability. At the beginning, after Zhou Yi joined the National Olympic team, there was still a debate within the coaching staff about the selection of the captain. He wanted Zhou Yi to take over the captain's armband, but some people in the coaching staff objected, thinking that the original captain Zhang Linpeng did a good job, and suddenly changing the captain before the Olympics would be a blow to the team's morale and would shake people's hearts. What will Zhang Linpeng, who has been deprived of the captain's armband, think? And whether Zhou Yi, who has parachuted into the team, has the ability to become a convincing captain, this is also a question. Although he is famous and has outstanding achievements, the leadership ability in the locker room is not all about fame and achievements.

In the end, it was Blazevic who overcame public opinion and insisted that Zhou Yi be the captain.

Zhou Yi did not shirk politely, and took over the captain's armband.

Now it seems that his original decision can be described as "wise and martial".

This captain has really helped him a lot......

In Japan's coach's box and bench, there was also a carnival after the goal, with head coach Takashi Sekitsuka and assistant coaches Kiku Muto and Tsutomu Ogura hugging each other.

They were so excited because they thought their tactics were working, which shows that they were right!

Suddenly deciding before the game to change the usual tactics and adopt a completely new and unfamiliar tactic is actually a big no-no. But in order to win, there are times when you need to make some choices that seem unusual and take the necessary risks. It was a gamble, and luckily, they got it right!

After celebrating the goal, Takashi Sekitsuka shouted to the players on the sidelines: "Just kick like this, keep pushing them! Grab them! Fight for another one!"

According to Takashi Sekizuka's inherent impression of Chinese football, he believes that the Chinese team will fall into chaos after conceding the goal, and as long as the Japanese team continues to increase its intensity of encirclement, it will be able to crush the opponent! The biggest weakness of the Chinese players is that they have a bad mentality and have psychological problems.

He specially analyzed that in this Olympic Games, the Chinese Olympic team has had a smooth ride, they have never conceded a goal first in the game, they are all the first to score, and they are all playing with the wind. So once they fall behind in the game, the Chinese players who are not prepared for this can fall into a situation where they have no master.

The ball of the Japanese team is like a basin of ice water poured on the heads of the players of the Chinese team, which will extinguish their fighting spirit!

When Takashi Sekitsuka was celebrating with his own people, he missed the scene where Zhou Yi gathered his teammates. If he had seen it, he probably wouldn't have thought so......

His impression of the Chinese players is basically accurate, and the vast majority of Chinese players are still like this until now. But this does not represent all Chinese players, especially the current national Olympic team.

Takashi Sekitsuka's research is obviously not deep and serious enough......

A scene that Takashi Sekitsuka didn't see, Shinji Kagawa, who was sitting in the VIP box, saw it really.

When he saw Zhou Yi gather his teammates together, he had a bad premonition.

Although he couldn't hear what Zhou Yi said, he could imagine that Zhou Yi was definitely appeasing people's hearts.

This team was not knocked down by a sudden conceded goal, which is what Shinji Kagawa cares about the most.

The Chinese team still has combat effectiveness......

※※※

Because it was the Chinese team that conceded the goal, after the game restarted, it was the Chinese team that kicked off.

The Japanese team now wishes that the Chinese team would have controlled the ball, so that they can grab it - after grabbing a goal by pressing, the Japanese team tasted the sweetness.

When the Japanese players rushed to grab it, the Japanese fans at the scene and in front of the TV were excitedly cheering for the Japanese team.

They seem to have seen the Chinese players scrambled and overwhelmed by the onslaught of the Japanese players......

But it was a little different from what they imagined, and the football was passed around at the feet of the Chinese Olympic team, but it was not rushed and embarrassed.

Especially Zhou Yi, although he was accompanied by a Yamaguchi Hotaru. But Hotaru Yamaguchi can only stop him from possessing and stopping the ball, and once he passes the ball straight out without staying at his feet, Hotaru Yamaguchi has nothing to do.

And Zhou Yi can really do a completely non-stop pass.

In Yamaguchi's eyes, it was as if he knew where to pass the ball in advance, so when he waited for the ball to come, he had already made adjustments so that when the ball rolled, he could send the ball directly to where it was going.

It's nothing to get a few kicks once in a while, everyone can do it, but it's always like this, it's always like this, it's terrible.

And his direct pass is not a simple return pass, he can even pass the ball forward - knocking the ball between Hotaru Yamaguchi's legs with his heel.

However, the Chinese team can only slow down the pace of the Japanese team's attack, and it is difficult for them to organize any decent offensive.

"The Japanese team continues to surround the Chinese team, and I think the Chinese team should organize some attacks to threaten the Japanese team's goal, and on the other hand, force them to dare not press the ...... anymore," Mark Lawrenson analyzed the situation as a neutral. "It has to be said that the Japanese team seems to be in the final faster than the Chinese team, and their players are more imposing. The Chinese team must reverse this situation, otherwise their goal will be breached again sooner or later. Zhou Yi's pass was indeed impressive and impressive, but it was not a long-term approach, and no one could guarantee not to make a single mistake in a 90-minute game. But as long as he makes a mistake once, the Chinese team may suffer a catastrophe!" (To be continued.) )
