Champion’s Heart

After the training of the day, the media blocked every Chinese team player at the gate of the training ground. They wanted to find out the result of Zhou Yi and the team's joint training through all means. Is it good or bad?

Although they can speculate through the laughter from the training ground, this is always their speculation and lacks real hammer evidence.

They want to know the correct answer from players or coaches.

"Zhou Yi? Co-training? Of course, he was training with us... feels? It feels good, I can't see him for the first time..."

"We are all stunned. The adaptability shown by Zhou Yi is really amazing..."

"Today's training was very successful..."

...

The answers given by everyone interviewed made Chinese reporters ecstatic.

They did not have any hope for the effect of Zhou Yi's return to the team training. They felt that Zhou Yi and the team practiced together, the symbolic significance is greater than the actual significance.

But now after listening to the players who have participated in the training, they are surprised and happy again-Zhou Yi's return is not just a symbol...

Later, when Lippi was interviewed, this was confirmed by him as the head coach.

"...It is well known today that Zhou Yi participated in the team's training and practiced with us. Happily, the training effect is good. All of us are very happy to see that after nearly a month of absence, Zhou Yi and the ball The team’s first joint training achieved good results..."

Lippi's remarks are equivalent to confirming the previous players' opinions, thoroughly confirming that Zhou Yi's first training after the injury came back and the news is good.

Although Lippi could also falsely claim that the effect was not good enough to release smoke bombs to Spain, he did not do so.

On the one hand, it is such a high-profile issue that it is difficult to fake, and he cannot control everyone's mouth. On the other hand, it is also the main reason. Lippi felt that there was no need to be clever. Even if he let the Spanish know this, he is confident to lead the Chinese team to beat Spain.

Maybe he experienced the humiliating group out of defending champion Italy four years ago, so he can now guess how much Spain thinks, and know that Spain is just a bluffing "paper tiger" who looks like a defending champion of the World Cup. , But in fact this team is completely different from the world champion four years ago.

After two consecutive losses in the group stage, there are many articles in the media that analyze this team.

There is a point of view that is right-there is no invincible tactics in the universe, it is just that a group of suitable players meet the right tactics at the best age.

In Lippi’s view, neither Barcelona nor the Spanish national team’s Tiki-taka is considered the greatest tactic in the world. Tiki-taka is far from the most popular tactic in the world’s football. Can't bring up the trend.

Very simple, this set of tactics is very demanding on players. Not all teams can be like Barcelona in the 2008-2009 season, like Spain in the 2010 World Cup, there are a group of golden ages that are just right for this set of tactics. player of.

At first, Gao Hongbo wanted to promote Tiki-taka on the Chinese team to imitate Barcelona, ​​but the effect was not particularly good. why?

Although the Chinese team has Zhou Yi's midfield core comparable to Harvey, the Chinese team still lacks many suitable players in other positions.

Now this Spanish river is going down the same way as the original one in Spain, in fact, the reason is the same-time.

From 2008 to 2012, the Spanish national team won two European Cup titles and one World Cup title, because these players are in the year of playing. And now?

The main center Villa is 32 years old, Torres is 30 years old, Iniesta is 30 years old, Xavi is 34 years old, Xavi Alonso is 32 years old, Casillas 33 year old.

Among them, Harvey's aging has the greatest impact on the team.

In addition to winning all the championships in the past three major competitions, this team's desire to win has been much worse than before.

They can no longer run around the field as before, covering the entire stadium.

No one can survive the time, and when the invincible fleet is also defeated by the British pirate ship, the collapse of the Spanish dynasty is also very consistent with the objective law.

Spain is getting weaker. In contrast, Lippi’s Chinese team is different from most of Spain’s core players. The core staff of this Chinese team is only about 22 or 33 years old, which is a time full of youth.

The so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.

If Spain is a tiger, it is also an aging tiger.

The Chinese team is a newborn calf, no one is afraid.

Zhou Yi teamed up with the team on the first day, and the news with outstanding effects soon appeared on the major media and the Internet.

Chinese fans cheered and were encouraged.

Although it’s only a little late now, it’s a little late, but the training effect is good, it is still very happy.

Spanish media are also paying attention to Zhou Yi's situation.

This news is certainly bad news for them.

However, some Spanish media are always good at discovering the bright spots in the bad news.

For example, it is not easy to say whether some media have announced whether Zhou Yi's joint training is outstanding. Because no one saw it, they all listened to the Chinese team players and coaches, they can lie, in order to create tension for Spain's preparations. Advise the Spanish national team not to be too nervous. If you put your attention on Zhou Yi, in case Zhou Yi does not get on, will Spain not be in vain? And also disrupted the Spanish team's own rhythm of preparation.

The Spanish media also hacked a wave of China by the way, saying that China has a tradition of making fakes and selling fakes. They are good at making fakes, and many famous European brands have been deeply affected by it. In order to cover up their fraudulent acts, the Chinese also invented a slightly more pleasant word called "cottage". In addition, at the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, there was a link for a little girl to sing, which was later proved to be a fake sing. The Spanish media used this matter to explain to everyone that at such an important Olympic Games opening ceremony, the Chinese dare to falsify, so what is it to lie collectively during the World Cup group stage?

Of course, this Spanish media probably forgot that their famous Spanish clothing manufacturer ZARA made money from the clothing styles of other well-known brands in the cottage...Every year they lost a lot of money in lawsuits, of course, they earned it by plagiarism. More money is a bargain for them. But such a brand can appear in a prominent position in major shopping malls in China. I have to say that foreign monks can read the scriptures, and the plagiarism is more fresh and refined...

The next day, Zhou Yi teamed up with the team for the second time, and the effect was still remarkable.

On the third day, the last day of training before the game, Lippi mainly carried out positioning ball training.

In the crucial battle of life and death, positioning the ball has always been an important means of scoring.

During the training gap, Zhou Yi and his teammates chatted together. He had a whimsy and wanted to design more sets of positioning ball tactics for the team.

Zhou Yi's proposal received a warm response from everyone.

Then everyone gathered together to use their brains, brainstorm, and give full play to their imagination.

They really let them design a few sets.

Then everyone went to the training ground and began to practice several sets of positioning ball tactics that they designed.

No one in the coaching staff stopped them, but watched from the side.

"Good..." Lippi's assistant coach Madaloni murmured.

"The feeling after Zhou Yi returned to the team is different." National team scout Pezzoti also nodded.

"He has a natural leadership temperament, and he can listen to him without a loud voice or exaggerated physical movements." The team's fitness coach Gaudino also said.

Lippi did not participate in the discussion, but listened quietly beside him, with a smile on his face.

He believed from the heart that the Chinese team will definitely be able to complete a historic breakthrough in his hand, qualify from the group, and may even go further...

At the end of the last day of training, Zhou Yi was blocked by reporters at the training ground. They wanted to hear Zhou Yi's views and outlook on tomorrow's game.

Of course, what they care most about is whether Zhou Yi will play tomorrow.

Facing this problem, Zhou Yi did not give an affirmative answer: "I don't know, I work hard and do everything I can. As for whether I can play~www.wuxiahere.com~ That is the question that the head coach considers, he Let me play, and I will play well. If I am not allowed to play, it must be his consideration. I do not have any comments on this."

Zhou Yi's words are not leaking, but they are not what reporters want to hear.

The reporters then asked him what he thought about Spain becoming the first team to be eliminated in this World Cup.

"It's a surprise. Before the start of the World Cup, no one expected such a thing to happen. But this is football. On the court, anything can happen. The defending champion may also be out of the group. Nothing is impossible."

"So it is possible for the Chinese team to beat Spain?" a Chinese reporter asked.

Zhou Yi laughed and said nothing, but everyone understood what he meant.

"But Spain is fighting for honor, the team fighting for honor is not easy to deal with..." said a Spanish reporter.

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "And we are fighting for survival."
