Section 349 Opponents of the Olympic Games

(Cat flutter Chinese When everything else was done, Zhao Yaning didn't forget it, and took time out to call Alijie to say hello.

"I've heard about you winning the championship." Ellie's mood was quite good, "But, can't you come back?" Still going to the Olympics? ”

"Yes, the match on August 11, against Portugal."

Zhao Yaning responded, causing a burst of dissatisfaction from Ellie, "The doctor said that I will be in labor this month, but you still have to run out to play football...... You're going too far, aren't you? ”

Zhao Yaning could only explain with a wry smile, "If it's a club game, a money-making game, I won't play." But after all, this is a national team game, so I can't ...... it."

"Well, I don't want to hear complaints." Ellie interrupted him quickly, "You only have football in your eyes, and I'll never be the first." I can bear it, but I don't want my son to be angry with football in the future, and you can't do it if you don't find time to spend with your son in the future. ”

Is it so troublesome for pregnant women to be emotional? Zhao Yaning didn't know what to say, so he could only comfort a few words.

"Since you don't even want your son for this broken competition, then when you come back, at least get me the medal back, okay?" After saying a few words, Ellie put forward the condition, "In the future, I can use it to educate my son, 'Your father didn't care if you were born for this thing'......"

"If you keep saying that, I won't dare to win......" Zhao Yaning smiled bitterly.

"Can you win? I don't know about the Chinese team, I just know that you just won the Asian Cup, do you think you can win the Olympics? ”

Zhao Yaning didn't know this question.

In a competition like the Olympic Games, after all, there is no definite number of strengths and weaknesses. Many of the big teams don't care about the Olympics at all and don't send good players to play in the Olympics. Germany has not played in the Olympics since the 90s, France has a dispensable attitude towards this competition, and Brazil and Argentina have never been interested in the Olympics, for example, this time, the Brazilian team did not qualify. To say that there are not enough players of the right age in Brazil who can do enough sè must not be believed, but they just lose, what can they say?

In this kind of game, it is normal for a weak country to win over a strong country. For example, in 2000, the champion Cameroon defeated Spain to win the championship, and the Spanish team represented by Barcelona's Xavi was extremely strong in Europe, but lost to African players led by Samuel Eto'o. And even this Chinese Olympic team has played with the Brazilian Olympic team, Zhao Yaning was not among them, but with the level of others, he did not fall behind in the confrontation with the Brazilian Olympic team with Kaka, and he did not suffer any losses from the scene, and it seemed like a dream to say it.

And more, much further back in the history of the Olympics, more of a joke. Needless to mention the 96 Olympics, the Brazilian team with Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Carlos, Bebeto, Juninho, Dida, Zemaria and others, known as the strongest Olympic team in history, was cut 1-0 by Rìben, and it is really hard to figure out how they played.

Because of the contempt for this honor by football powers, in many cases, even a weak football country can fight back and win good results. But there are also times when the enemy is so strong and perverted that it makes people feel powerless: for example, in the 1952 Olympics, the Hungarian Olympic team sent a representative team, and two years later, the Hungarian national team in the 1954 World Cup was almost a team - that was the Hungary that was invincible all over the world at that time, and was defeated by the West German team in the World Cup final by the banned drug.

And football is a sport that is hard to have any fun once the age limit is restricted. After all, the Olympic Games and the league conflict, many teams of overage players are difficult to find strong players, most of them are under the age of 23, and football is a big problem, that is, young people under the age of 23, after all, it is difficult to have a strong defense.

Defence requires far more experience than offense, which is why defenders mature much later than forwards. And the age is limited, which makes some talented offensive players have a lot of room to play, and those defensive players will suffer a lot. After all, the offensive end of football always occupies the active side, and the talented attacker has more advantages than the talented defender.

Zhao Yaning feels that the strength of this year's Chinese Olympic Games is still okay. After all, half of the people in the National Olympic Games are members of the national team, and they are not worried about some U23 teams. If you encounter a session where other teams are not strong, then it is possible to rush to the end: after all, the pressure on the Chinese team for the Olympics is not ordinarily great. But if you really meet a strong and terrible opponent, then you will be in big trouble. If you really meet a team like Hungary in 1952, no matter how hard you try, it will be difficult to win.

What makes him even more helpless is that because most of these teams are young people, he just wants to prepare some materials, and he has to worry about insufficient information.

However, according to some information collected by Zhao Yaning himself, there should not be such a perverted team in this Olympic Games.

The European teams that qualified for the Olympics this time were Serbia, Italy, Portugal and host Greece. Germany, France, Spain, England and the Netherlands have not qualified for the finals. Mexico, Paraguay, Argentina and Costa Rica are shortlisted in South America, South Korea, China and Iraq are in Asia, and Mali, Morocco, Ghana and Tunisia are in Africa. And Australia, naturally, is Australia.

Of the few teams in Europe, only Italy is a football powerhouse. However, Italy's Olympic team does have a lot of problems. The Italian team originally wanted Totti, Cassano and Buffon to participate in the Olympics as overage players, but Roma was unwilling to send Totti and Cassano, the two pillars of the team, but gave Ferrari and Pelizoli two people, and Juventus refused to let go, and in the end the Italian Football Federation could only give in, or poach people from Milan, and let Milan send Pirlo to play in the Olympics. And the Italian Olympic team really has no talent, their biggest name is the best local shè player Gilardino who plays for Parma, and then there are Chiellini, Barzagli, De Rossi and other backfield players.

Such a lineup is relatively strong in the Olympic Games.

And this Portuguese team, there is no one available. Figo, Rui Costadeco and others all refused to participate in the Olympics, and the Portuguese Olympic team, with the exception of Fernando Mela who played for Stuttgart, Mott who played for Fulham, Viana who played for Newcastle, and Ronaldo who played for Manchester United, the others were all Portuguese Super League players. And because most of them play for Benfica and Porto, that is, most of these people are substitutes - at least, Zhao Yaning has heard of only one Bosingwa.

Greece relied on the advantage of the host to get the right to qualify, Serbia's form is not much better than Greece, and there are no really famous players.

On the contrary, it is several teams in South America that make Zhao Yaning feel quite good. Paraguay and Mexico have always had a tradition of youth teams, and Argentina is the strongest team this time - both vertically and horizontally.

Argentina's current head coach is a notch ahead of everyone: the coach of their national Olympic team is Bielsa, who is known as a madman. And in the selection of overage players, they unexpectedly chose Samuel, Ayala and Heinze - and Zhao Yaning has to admit that none of these three defenders are very easy to deal with......

On the midfield line, although they did not recruit the previously rumored Riquelme and Aimar, they also have Mascherano, Da Lijandro, Luis Gonzalez, Kili Gonzalez and a number of strong players, and above the forwards, they also have Tevez and Saviola, one homegrown and one in Europe.

For this kind of arm, Zhao Yaning also admitted that if they really want to win, it will be really difficult to deal with this group of goods by themselves......

Speaking of which, several teams in Africa are not very strong. Among the teams of Mali, Morocco, Tunisia and Ghana, only Tunisia is a strong team in Africa, Ghana and Mali are slightly inferior, and Morocco is a lot inferior. Other African powerhouses, such as Cameroon and Nigeria, have not been able to show up. It's just that speaking of them, Sissoko in the Mali team and Essien in the Ghana team can be regarded as old acquaintances of Zhao Yaning.

That's pretty much it, it's an overview of the opponent. Looking back at his own Olympic team, although this year's National Olympic team was blown into the 'super platinum generation', and some people even blew them to the national team, Zhao Yaning still knows in his heart what their strength is. He doesn't understand anything else, what aura, consciousness, intelligence, willpower, he may be blind, but how technical ability is, what level of touching and catching the ball, he can still do it at a glance. These guys, compared to the older generation of players in the national team, are not a little bit worse.

But even so, it's a team that can be kicked. On the front line, Daewoo, Qu Bo, on the midfield line, himself, Yan Song, Zhao Hongrì, Hu Zhaojun, Zhou Haibo, Sun Xiang and Du Wei on the guard line are not bad, plus the two veterans of Datou and Sun Jihe, such a lineup can be regarded as okay.

The media has blown up the rhetoric, but it can't change their lack of technical level.

People say that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles, but now that I don't know myself or the other, the outcome is naturally unpredictable......

It's a big deal, give him that Heavenly God Descending Mortal Card. Zhao Yaning said fiercely in his heart.

Regardless of Ellijie's words, he also has a reason why he must win: he has now won the Triple Crown, and the national team has also won the Asian Cup, such a result, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a second time in his life - football history for so many years, how many times have the Triple Crowns been crowned? The Asian Cup is the first time that China has won it, and I can't afford to have such an opportunity.

And when his reputation and influence are at their peak, it is also a good time for him and the domestic Football Association and the General Administration of Sports to make requests. And at this time, only by giving a big gift to the General Administration of Sports can they nod their heads to the matter of talent reform.

In the Olympics, you have to win.
