Chinese After putting those things aside and returning to China, the national team's training camp has also begun. The latest free chapters of the book can be found here.

After all, the World Cup is a major event, so the national team is very well prepared. Everyone knows very well that it is difficult for a person to have the opportunity to play in the World Cup a few times, and it is because of good luck, even if it is destined to be difficult to have any good performance, but it is still the attention of the whole country.

What's more, the Chinese team's grouping this year is still very good. The four teams in the group are France, Togo, and Switzerland.

There are several reasons for saying that the grouping is very good: first, the African team that the team needs to face is Togo - Zhao Yaning still heard about Togo's team, although they were in the world preliminaries, seven wins in ten games, two draws and one loss, but when Adebayo talked about the Togo national team, the evaluation was not very high, although the overall strength of the African team is not as good as Europe and South America, but there is no shortage of strong teams, at least, if you meet a team like Côte d'Ivoire, Zhao Yaning will still feel a headache. However, Togo is not a traditional strong team in Africa, their strength is weak, and even they are playing the World Cup for the first time, and their experience is worse than that of the Chinese team, which also gives people a lot of confidence.

The other team in Pot 2 is Switzerland. The Swiss team Zhao Yaning doesn't know much, if he has to say anything - he knows a lot about Switzerland's main defensive star Sendros, this player is regarded as a rising star by Wenger, but last season at Arsenal, he was bullied by Drogba and had a 'Drogba phobia', which can be regarded as a typical failure product fueled by seedlings.

However, club games and national team games are two different things, and Zhao Yanning doesn't think that when he arrives at the national team, things will be the same with space to cross. Although the overall strength of the Swiss team is not very good, it cannot be underestimated to be able to stand out in the European competition.

And then there's the French team.

This time, the French team has been accused of declining strength more than once before the game. The last time they qualified from the group of the World Cup, they lost to Greece in the last European Cup, and the current French team is not very favored.

Although in terms of absolute strength, the French team can definitely not be said to be weak. Not only are they not weak, but they are also a team with a lot of stars. But the problem is that the French themselves have always had a big problem, and they played extremely badly in two consecutive major tournaments in '02 and '04, which also made them a lot of contempt.

Moreover, France is now underestimated for many reasons: Zidane has already made a declaration that he will retire after the World Cup, and it is difficult to say what he can still play when such words are said. Although he has played very well in this half season, this is the madness of the veteran at the last moment, and what he can do in the World Cup has naturally caused a lot of speculation. And this time in the World Cup, the overly conceited Domenech also refused to take Piret to Germany, and the reason given was that Pire's astrological discord with him - such a team will naturally not be favored.

It is understandable that some coaches have a preference or dislike for certain players: Inzaghi's national team career was almost a soy sauce, and Xavi was still on the bench until '04. Some coaches want to reflect their iron handsome demeanor, and it is very possible to find one or two people to start, but the real iron coach is also looking for trouble because of tactical incompatibility, or a thorn in the team, and such a reason to make trouble with the astrological signs as an excuse is really unheard of.

Zhao Yaning has played in France for three years, and he is also more supportive of the French on the issue of winning the World Cup. But even so, he didn't know what to say about Domenech, who refused to bring this time, in addition to Pire, there was also Gyuli. The two main wingers who reached the Champions League final were all selected for the national team. That is, the French team has a thick foundation and can withstand tossing, even if you don't take them, there are still a group of outstanding wingers such as Malouda, Ribery, and Govu who play in France are available, and if they are replaced by other teams, who dares to do this?

And Piret was expelled because of the horoscope issue, and Gyuli was expelled because of the woman issue.

Although Gyuli has just won the Champions League and his performance is extremely eye-catching, he is just as much as Domenech who will not take him with him. And there is actually only one reason: because Gyuli doesn't know which tendon in his head is not working, he actually wants to seduce Domenech's girlfriend. In fact, he only saw the woman once, and then he began to send messages to seduce the other party, and Domenech naturally couldn't bear such a thing, and immediately expelled him from the French team.

A player who was expelled from the national team for seducing the coach's girlfriend is unprecedented, if not unprecedented.

"That's true love, you don't know it."

When he contacted Jiuli, Jiuli didn't care about it. Zhao Yaning always couldn't help but speculate maliciously: Could he be intentional? Maybe he played for the national team to be angry with Lyon manager Lacombe, right? Lacombe said he would not be able to play 10 international games, and when Gyuli retired from the national team, he made 11 appearances for the French national team......

However, it is true that Gyuli's matter is wrong, but it can also be seen that Domenech's charm is not strong enough. A manager with enough charisma won't worry about this kind of trouble, right? Not to mention the charismatic coaches who are famous, even ordinary coaches, this kind of nonsense cannot occur. However, Zhao Yaning didn't dare to jump to conclusions about such a thing: the nature of the French is like this, Platini is notoriously charming, isn't he cuckolded by his teammates?

This is actually an important reason not to be favored: the French team is dominated by veterans, and most of them are very difficult to manage. The most important thing for them to play is not how to plan a reasonable tactic - a group of old players, no one will easily go wrong, tactical matters are secondary - their most critical problem is to have a very good leader, who can unite them and lead them to win the championship.

In '98, they still had Didier Deschamps, and at this point in time, it's hard to say if they can play together.

It is precisely because of this uncertainty that they will be doubted about their strength, and this also makes Zhao Yaning not know how to evaluate their strength. Regardless, though, they always get less attention than other teams.

Before the World Cup, the most popular teams were naturally Brazil, Argentina, and England, the most famous teams.

Brazil is naturally needless to say, with Kaka, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo and Adriano, they are known as the dream quartet, and their strength makes Robinho, Juninho and a large number of players in the Ballon d'Or squad can only sit on the bench to live. The Brazilians don't seem to bother to talk about whether they can win the World Cup, and what they talk about the most now is Ronaldo's World Cup goal record and Ronaldinho's World Cup title.

In the past two years, Argentina has been known as the 'second in the world', because they always lose to Brazil, and since Brazil is the first in the world, then the Argentines also feel that they have no opponent other than Brazil, and they are naturally the second in the world.

And then there is England, which has once again been crowned the strongest name in history. However, England at this stage is really not bad, and their strength is still quite good. Although it is not necessarily the strongest in history and the strongest in the world, there is absolutely no objection to saying that this is a top ten team in the world. On paper alone, they are indeed good, and although their manager Eriksen's character seems to be a little problematic, he is quite pragmatic in terms of coaching. Although Zhao Yaning has always felt that compared with 02, England is weaker now, but it is always correct to say that they are a strong team.

In addition to them, the big favorite, is Italy.

If you talk about the strength of the squad, they are also extremely good. A world-class defense, and there is also a world-class midfielder, although the forward line is slightly worse, but there are Totti, Piero and others, and there is also this year's European Golden Boot winner, Toni, who broke the 30-goal curse that has been in the dust of Serie A for many years, their strength is very good, not to mention, their head coach Lippi is probably the best coach in the top 32.

But the problem is that the current Italian team can be said to be in a hurry, and the phone door matter has made European football a quarrel.

Not in a group with these four teams, the luck of the Chinese team is still quite good.

In fact, the grouping of Asian teams is quite good.

In the Iranian grouping, there are Portugal, Mexico, and Angola. Although they dare not say that they will win when they meet Portugal and Mexico, they can fight for a draw if they meet anyone. And Angola is needless to say, Angola has been in a civil war before 2002, this is the first time they have qualified for the finals, not to mention, even the World Cup qualifiers are the first time to participate, the difference in experience, the world is unique, Iran and they are in a group, and if you are lucky, you can qualify.

Japan, on the other hand, are in the same group as Brazil, Australia and Croatia. Brazil naturally doesn't have to think about it, but Australia is not necessarily better than Japan, Croatia is now even more green, almost relying on a Pulsau to support, Japan is not without a chance to advance - in fact, the Japanese themselves think higher. Their slogan is to join hands with Brazil, qualify from the group, and then try to eliminate Italy and challenge for a place in the quarter-finals.

Such a slogan made Zhao Yaning can't help but think of the slogan of the Chinese team in 2002, it seems that it is not only China that is used to madness.

In Saudi Arabia's group, strong teams such as Spain naturally cannot be challenged, while Tunisia is a strong African team, but the strength is unknown, and the last European team is Ukraine - this team is also the first time to qualify for the finals, and it is difficult to say whether it can go far.

And although South Korea took the last train to the World Cup after some noise and games, it was obviously pitted by FIFA. Their grouping is Argentina, Ivory Coast, South Korea, the Netherlands - Zhao Yaning estimates that unless Germany becomes the land of the Koreans, and every game is dreamed of 2002, they are estimated to have no points to go home.

Luck is still very good, such a situation, not bad at all. Whether such a good game can play a good card depends on yourself. Cat flutter Chinese
