When the Chinese team announced its starting lineup on the morning of the match day, reporters could no longer contact Wang Ai. Even if reporters they were familiar with called, they could only contact Wang Ai, who often made strange idioms.
assistant.
For example, why would Wang Ai serve as center? Although they knew that the Chinese team only brought one center Bai Guanghai this time, the second potential center could only be Wang Ai, who is 184 centimeters tall. After all, it is not the national team that is lacking a center, but the whole of China.
There is a shortage of centers in football. But they still want to ask. For no other reason, Wang Ai's attention has increased again.
After the first round of the World Cup group matches a few days ago, Wang Ai topped the scorer list with 3 goals. Stars who had high hopes and often made the list were lagging behind. For example, Germany's Miroslav Klose scored 2 goals.
The goal ranked second, with Argentina's Crespo, Ivory Coast's Drogba and Brazil's Kaka all scoring 1 goal. Although the Chinese team may not go far, and these stars may have played more games, no one will forget it.
The Champions League, which just ended less than a month ago, has a terrifying efficiency of two goals per game!
The golden boot may not belong to Wang Ai yet, but the efficiency king has already begun to emerge!
This is the World Cup.
Two-thirds of the topics about the Chinese team focused on Wang Ai. In the past, the most scoring midfielder in the world was Lampard. Now people have noticed that Wang Ai is actually a midfielder, but in the past
His versatility in offense and incompetence in defense made people subconsciously think that he was a forward. When Wang Ai really became a lone forward or center, people began to speculate horribly about what kind of performance he could perform. Even major gambling companies,
Major newspapers have given new speculations, the most exaggerated one is that Wang Ai can make ten, the reason is that Wang Ai is very familiar with England.
Don't mention it, it makes sense. After one season, Wang Ai has played against all the England players, including Carragher, Ferdinand, Terry, and Ashley Cole!
"Why are you like outsiders?" Wang Ai, who returned to the hotel to rest at noon, looked at Constance and couldn't laugh or cry: "Terry and I have been teammates for a whole year, and we are based on defense. Maybe I didn't have anything in the whole game.
Chances are, who knows?”
At 17:40 in the evening, at the Frankfurt Stadium in Nuremberg, the Chinese and British teams returned to the locker room after their warm-up. Wang Ai and Terry chatted while walking. The Chinese team put on a posture of admitting defeat. Terry and England
Of course, the team couldn't help but notice, so the exchange between the two didn't feel as tense as before the big game.
Of course, this is not the right time to talk about something too private, such as next season's salary. Terry was complaining to Wang Ai. He heard that the club was going to the United States for training in August, so he had to go all the way for Nike.
Can I go when the time comes?
Wang Ai hasn't heard about it yet. After all, Terry is the one with the best skills at Chelsea. As for the next plan, Wang Ai can't say yet. He just told Terry that he should be very busy this summer and probably won't have time to devote himself to it.
Went to the United States for a trip.
Terry nodded clearly. He thought Wang Ai was deliberately lying to him because Wang Ai's sponsor was Adidas. Maybe Adidas didn't want its top spokesperson to go to the Nike training camp.
Ten minutes later, the two sides re-entered the field, and a large number of Chinese fans appeared in the stands again. After hearing the lineup, most of them realized that the Chinese team had given up the game. To be honest, this feeling was indeed quite good.
It's uncomfortable, after all, they spent money.
But Chinese fans are still generous after all. No one boos the Chinese team. They are very satisfied to see the Chinese team competing with the England team, which they consider to be strong, thousands of miles away.
After the national anthem, photos were taken, and then Wang Ai and Terry each walked to the center of the field holding the team flags of the two countries. The two Chelsea teammates met again on a special occasion. They both found it funny. After the Australian referee held down the coin, Wang Ai
Ask Terry to guess first. Terry guessed correctly, asked for the venue, and gave up the right to serve to the Chinese team.
Of course, the venue has not changed, it is the venue where both sides are now dispersed. Wang Ai smiled and thanked the club teammates for their kindness. The referee team was also very happy. The captains of both sides are club teammates. There is a huge disparity in strength. The weaker side is actually
Taking the initiative to admit defeat means that the game will not be very fierce, and it will be a tacit understanding to a certain extent, so the referee will be relaxed.
The Chinese team's formation is a standard 442, with Xu Yunlong, Zhang Yaokun, Dewey and Xu Liang lined up, Zhao Xuri and Chen Yang partnering as double midfielders, Yan Song and Lao Hao as left and right wingers, Li Jinyu as single front midfielder, and Wang Ai as center forward
The defensive force is concentrated in the midfield and backfield. The England team is also 442, with Carragher, Ferdinand, Terry, and Ashley Cole lined up. The single midfielder is Beckham, and the left and right wingers are Gerrard and Djoko.
Er, the single attacking midfielder is Lampard, and the double forwards are Owen and Crouch.
The height of Crouch, a giant, is even 17 centimeters taller than the Chinese team goalkeeper Li Leilei! This guy is definitely the number one giant, taller than Ibrahimovic. And centers in this era usually don’t have height. It doesn’t count.
Lampard, Joe Cole, Owen, and Crouch alone put huge pressure on the Chinese team's defense. They really jumped up and couldn't reach them.
"So, it makes sense for the Chinese team to give the main players a rest. You can replace Luo Tongliang and Li Weifeng. There is nothing you can do if you encounter Crouch at such an altitude." Chinese commentator Huang Jianxiang complained into the microphone in the early hours of the morning.
: "Think about our center again. He is only 18 years old. 1.84 meters is not short, but Terry is 1.87 meters, Ferdinand is 1.88 meters, and Robinson is 1.93 meters. Our center is short in front of other defenders!"
Guest Tao Wei, who always presents a serious and professional image, couldn't help but complain: "This is not bad, Xiaobai is only 1.77 meters... Well, of course, the height of the center is important, but jumping ability is more important. Xiaobai originally
He is not a center forward, but an attacking midfielder. After arriving in Germany, he gradually changed to a center forward. There are very few center backs in Bundesliga teams shorter than him, but he can still score goals like crazy."
"Ahem, yes!" Huang Jianxiang knew that the complaint was a bit harsh. After all, the current main force of the national team is only the generation born in the 1970s. When they were young, their nutritional conditions were not good, which affected their physical development. Those who are over 1.75 meters tall are real big men. China
The average height of men is just over 1.6 meters.
Amid their chatter and laughter, the time hand pointed to midnight on June 16. The Chinese team in red, composed of Chinese Super League stars, began to collide with the star-studded England team in white.
