Zhang Guan is going to play football!

The effect of this news was like detonating a nuclear bomb, which instantly caused a sensational effect.

"Am I not mistaken? Zhang Guan is going to play football. He is going to participate in the world preliminaries?"

"Zhang Guan, can he play football? I've never seen him play football. After playing, this is still the world preliminaries. All the best professional football players in China are participating. Can Zhang Guan do it?"

"It's definitely possible, don't forget that he is Zhang Guan! There is no event in the world that he can't do. With Zhang Guan, maybe we can really create a miracle and win the next five games."

"Don't forget, Zhang Guan is the fastest runner in the world. If he is a striker, who in the world can catch up to him? With Zhang Guan's explosive power, Asian defenders can wipe him out in an instant!"

"We have to believe in Zhang Guan, he has brought us enough miracles, this time, he will definitely be able to bring us another miracle!"

The current record of the national football team in the world preliminaries is 2 draws and 3 losses, and only scored 2 points, ranking the bottom of the group. The top three teams are Iran with 11 points, South Korea with 10 points and Uzbekistan with 9 points. The gap between these three teams is relatively small, and they all have a chance to win the top two and directly advance to next year's competition. world cup.

If the national football team wants to appear, it must win all five games. In that case, the national football team will score 17 points. In the world preliminaries, 17 points is considered a threshold for advancement, but it is not a very safe result. Whether it can be achieved depends on the face of other teams.

Winning the next five games is a completely impossible task for the national football team, but the sudden appearance of Zhang Guan has made many Chinese fans feel that maybe the national football team is really possible to win all five games.

The national football team needs miracles, and what Zhang Guan is best at creating is miracles!

...

On the bus, Ki Sung-yong, the captain of the South Korean men's football team and a core player of South Korea, looked disdainful.

"Zhang Guan? Playing football? Hahaha? Is the Chinese team crazy about losing? Let Zhang Guan play in the world preliminaries. Has he played football? Can he play football!"

Ji Chengyong studied in Australia in his early years. He once played for Seoul FC in South Korea and the Celtics of the Soviet Super League. Now he plays for Swansea City in the Premier League and has gradually become the main player in the team.

Ji Chengyong is obviously dismissive of Zhang Guan. As the main player in the Premier League team, he looks down on other Asian players in his bones, let alone Zhang Guan who has never played football.

"The captain is right. Zhang Guan is just a little faster. It's not a big deal. Football is not another sport. After a few months of practice, you can play games! Isn't it said that Zhang Guan is an all-round athlete? This time Let him taste our strength, let him know what professional football is! Professional football is not his track and field sprint." Huang Xican next to him said.

Huang Xican is a young player born in 1996. He is only 21 years old this year. He is currently playing for the Salzburg Red Bull Club of the Austrian Football League One. In the South Korean national team, because Sun Xingmin has accumulated yellow cards and will be suspended for one game, Huang Xican will replace Sun Xingmin and become the striker of the South Korean team.

As for Sun Xingmin, he can be regarded as the number one star of the South Korean team. He currently plays for Tottenham in the Premier League and was once elected as the Premier League Player of the Month. Tottenham spent 30 million euros to introduce him back then, which also set a record for the transfer fee of an Asian athlete. It can be said that he is the most expensive athlete in Asia.

In addition to Ji Chengyong, Sun Xingmin and Huang Xican, the South Korean team played in Europe, Ji Dongyuan and Gu Zizhe also played in Europe, and they played for the Oldsburg team. With so many players playing in Europe, the South Korean players do have the capital to be proud.

In addition, the professionalism of football is also the main reason why South Korean players despise Zhang Guan.

Professional football is different from professional games in other sports. There is a huge gap between professional football and amateur football. Like table tennis, it can be said to be hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the folks. Top amateur table tennis enthusiasts can often play back and forth with professional players of average strength, and even win if they are lucky.

But this situation is impossible in football, and professional football players can easily beat amateur football fans. Even those professional players who look dumb and silly on the field are unmatched by amateur football fans.

To become a professional football player, all you need is time. Football is different from other sports. Football must be started from the baby age, and there is no shortcut.

For example, in basketball, many people who started playing basketball at the age of sixteen or seventeen or even in college can still play in the NBA. For example, Mark Eaton, the former NBA shot-blocking king, repaired cars for three years after graduating from high school before starting to play basketball. , He was 25 years old when he entered the draft, but he still holds the record for the highest average single-game blocks in the NBA-averaging 5.56 per game.

Mark Eaton is not an exception. For example, David Robinson started playing basketball in his fourth year of high school; Stephen Nash started formal basketball training after entering college; "The Great" Embiid came to the United States at the age of 17 Just started to learn basketball formally. Many "high school student" rookies in the NBA back then actually only had three or four years of basketball experience.

In basketball, as long as the talent is strong enough and you learn basketball for three or four years, you can really play professional games, even the world's top professional leagues like the NBA. But in football, it is absolutely impossible to learn to play in the four major European leagues in three or four years. If you don't start playing football until you are sixteen or seventeen, there are only two words: it's too late!

Pele, the king of football, played barefoot since he was a child; Maradona, who regarded football as his favorite at the age of three; Ronaldo, even though he grew up in a slum, still joined the youth football team at the age of eight; Ronaldinho , his father and brother are both players; Kaka joined Sao Paulo at the age of 8; Messi started playing in the neighborhood youth team at the age of 5. As for those European football stars, such as Beckham, Zidane, Rooney, Ronaldo, etc., grew up in affluent Europe. They don’t have to worry about food since they were young. They will become the terminal training of professional teams when they are in elementary school. Object, but also can play football carefree.

There is nothing to say about these people’s talents, but to become a professional player, ten years of training is indispensable, and formal football training requires at least five years, such as those who can enter the four major European leagues before the age of 20. People, almost all from football families, started to touch the ball before they could walk.

But Zhang Guan has never played football. Even if Zhang Guan is talented, he can't reach the level of a professional player without two or three years of effort. What's more, games like the World Preliminaries are different from professional leagues. Without enough game experience, it is impossible to play in the world preliminaries.

Therefore, the entire South Korean team, whether it is the starter or the substitute, or even the coaching staff, ignores the existence of Zhang Guan. Even if Zhang Guan is called the greatest athlete in the world, the South Korean team feels that Zhang Guan is unlikely to cause any trouble. spray.

...

The outside of the national football training camp was surrounded by reporters who came to interview. Unfortunately, none of the reporters could enter the training ground. Coach Lippi seemed to keep the tactics secret, so even the originally scheduled 15-minute media opening time was not allowed. cancelled. Hundreds of reporters squatted outside the training camp all day, and they didn't even see Zhang Guan's shadow.

In the training camp, Zeng Cheng, the goalkeeper of the national team, looked at the goal behind him with a depressed expression. The football had been blocked by the net and bounced to the ground.

"What's the matter? It's like this again. Four players in the midfield and five players in the backcourt couldn't stop Zhang Guan! I thought Zhang Guan was just fast, but I didn't expect his skills to be so good! The defenders were all played by him. !" Zeng Cheng thought silently.

Several other national football champions also looked out of breath at this time. I don't have the ball under my feet, but I can't catch up with Zhang Guan who has the ball under his feet. More importantly, Zhang Guan's extraordinary skills are completely like teasing them. For example, if the tail of the ox is piercing the crotch, if it is completely contemptuous of the defenders on the field, if it is like changing the speed during high-speed movement, it is completely bullying the defenders who cannot keep up. Especially the gorgeous Marseille roundabout in the last shot, followed by a cyclist at the foot to fool the goalkeeper, it is like an artist!

All the players in the national team have to admit that Zhang Guan is far superior to other players in the national team both physically and technically. It is estimated that Zhang Guan is definitely the top player in the world.

Even Coach Lippi couldn't help sighing: "Zhang Guan is not playing football, he is playing an art!"

...

In the system, Zhang Guan must have learned all the skills related to football, and in terms of athlete experience books, Zhang Guan finally chose the experience book of "alien" Ronaldo.

Who is the best striker in football history? This question may have a different answer in everyone's mind. Comparing which one is more powerful between Ronaldo and Messi in the peak era is completely a question of Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong, and there is no standard answer.

However, when considering the current situation of the national team, Zhang Guan's options are much smaller. The overall strength of the national team's players is indeed far below the world level, so Zhang Guan can only choose which personal hero The players who want to choose do not need the cooperation of their teammates as much as possible, and have a personal file. After such a screening, only Maradona and Ronaldo are left.

Maradona was able to lead the underdog to win the championship that year, and this ability to fight alone can be called the world's number one. As for Ronaldo, he is known as a player who does not need tactics, as long as he is given the ball. The styles of these two people are very suitable for the situation of Zhang Guan's national team.

The main reason why Zhang Guan chose Ronaldo's experience book is because Ronaldo's career is closer to now. In contrast, Maradona was active in the last century after all, and it has been thirty or forty years since now. For such a long time, football has been developing continuously. Does Maradona's experience Can also cope with modern football, Zhang Guan can not guarantee.

The football level of Asian countries is already far below the world average. With Ronaldo's personal ability at his peak, the defense line of Asian countries is almost as good as paper. What's more, Zhang Guan is faster than Da Luo in terms of speed, which means that the current Zhang Guan is equivalent to an enhanced version of Da Luo.

...

On March 23, the Chinese team played against the Korean team at home.

With 2 draws and 3 losses, the Chinese team only has a theoretical possibility of qualifying. If this game loses, I am afraid that there will be no "theoretical possibility". As for the South Korean team, the record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss gives them a good chance of qualifying. If there is no accident, the South Korean team only needs to have another record of 2 wins and 2 draws to ensure their qualifying.

The camera was aimed at Zhang Guan, and the audience gave out warm applause and shouts, and the Chinese commentator was even more enthusiastic. However, the Korean narrator had a dismissive tone.

"I thought it was a joke when I said that Zhang Guan played football. I didn't expect him to really dare to appear on the field. Letting someone who has never participated in any football match to play is simply a gift from the Chinese team. A victory!" The South Korean commentator said.

"That's right, the Republic of Korea has been able to score all three points in this game. Although the game has not yet started, we are already one step closer to qualifying." The guest commentator next to him said.

The game started quickly. As the visiting team, the Korean team took the lead. Perhaps because of the away game, the Korean team played very conservatively at the beginning, just passing the ball back and forth in the backcourt, looking for opportunities. In the first few minutes, the South Korean team has been in control of the rhythm of the game, and the Chinese team can only be ready for defense at all times.

In the first three minutes, the South Korean team has been testing, and the offense is only scratching the surface. It wasn't until the fourth minute that the South Korean team had a real attack. Ji Chengyong sent a cross near the bottom line from the left, Ji Dongyuan quickly followed up, and the Chinese team broke the ball out of the bottom line, and the South Korean team got a corner kick. Then the Korean team's corner kick was caught by the goalkeeper, and the ball finally returned to the hands of the Chinese team.

Zhang Guan stood near the midfield and waited, and the purpose of the Chinese team was also very clear, that is to pass on to Zhang Guan. After passing back and forth several times, the ball finally reached Zhang Guan's feet.

"Zhang Guan received the ball!" The commentator said excitedly, and the audience cheered in cooperation.

"Catching the ball in the middle is not a big threat." Ji Chengyong pouted, and then won it himself. As the captain of the South Korean team and a core player on the field, he naturally had to stand up at this time.

After Zhang Guan received the ball, without hesitation, he took the ball and rushed towards the Korean team's penalty area.

"The speed is very fast, pay attention to defending!" Ji Chengyong turned his head and shouted at the backcourt players, but when he turned his head again, he found that Zhang Guan had already rushed forward.

"What! So fast!" Ji Chengyong was taken aback. As for Zhang Guan, he suddenly accelerated and changed his lane, rushing directly past Ji Chengyong.

"I was passed! The speed is so fast, even in the Premier League, there is no such a fast speed." Ji Chengyong reacted, and then turned around to chase, but he found that he had no ball to run , seems to be slower than Zhang Guan's running with the ball.

"It's over like this?" The defense players of the South Korean team were all taken aback. Zhang Guan's passing seemed too easy this time. It was simply speeding up and changing the line. It's this kind of simple almost, but Ki Sung-yong has no time to react.

The captain of the South Korean team, Ki Sung-yong, who can play the main force in the Premier League, did not even hold on to a face-to-face when facing Zhang Guan.

Zhang Guan single-handedly rushed to the South Korean team's backcourt, while the South Korean team's central defenders Zhang Xianxiu and Hong Zhenghao double-teamed up at the same time.

In a football game, the success rate of breaking through with the ball from the center is lower than that from the side, because breaking through the center will encounter more defensive players, and it is certain to be flanked. And if you break through from the side, it will often form a one-on-one situation. Whether it is a breakthrough or a cross, it is easier.

However, today, Zhang Guan's first attack with the ball was to break through from the middle. Facing the pincer attack of Zhang Xianxiu and Hong Zhenghao, Zhang Guan did not hesitate. Hong happened to be about to break into the restricted area.

"Not good!" Zhang Xianxiu yelled in his heart, and at the same time, he didn't care too much, and shoveled up with scissors.

Zhang Guan's speed was very fast, but this flying shovel still touched Zhang Guan's calf, and Zhang Guan staggered violently. At this time, he has reached the front of the penalty area. If he falls down, he will get an excellent free kick opportunity. However, Zhang Guan did not do so. He struggled to maintain his body balance, because what he needed was not a free kick , but a goal.

The opponent's goalkeeper had already attacked and pounced on the football, but Zhang Guan took the first step and controlled the ball under his feet. The next moment, Zhang Guan's upper body shook suddenly, and the South Korean goalkeeper was at a loss for what to do. He lost his center by Zhang Guan's shaking and sat down on the ground.

"The pendulum is extraordinary!"

There were deafening shouts from the auditorium at the scene. Zhang Guan faced the empty goal and pushed lightly with the side of his foot, and the football flew into the goal against the ground.

The ball went in!

At 6 minutes and 32 seconds into the game, the Chinese team led 1-0!

...

"Is this a goal?" The commentator was still thinking about Zhang Guan's high-speed dribble just now, but in the blink of an eye, he saw that the ball had been kicked into the goal.

too suddenly!

It only took a few seconds for Zhang Guan to get the ball and complete the goal. The commentator originally wanted to introduce a few words like a routine, but Zhang Guan didn't give him a chance to speak, and directly dribbled the ball into the South Korean team. In the penalty area, score the ball.

It took the next second for the commentator to react, and then he put all the introductions behind him and shouted loudly.

"Goal in! Go in! Zhang Guan scored the first goal for the Chinese team!"
