This game is a lone forward, with only Wang Ai!
Lao Gao gave Wang Ai full tactical freedom and said bluntly: Play how you like!
The subtext is: You may not listen even if I say it!
In this regard, Wang Ai could only grin. After listening to Lao Gao's comments just now, he already knew how to play. It depends on how the battle in the midfield goes. If it goes well, he can play in the front and play center. If it doesn't go well, he can
He has to drop back and play forward. If the two wingers are brave enough, he can also play as a shadow forward.
As a rare all-around offensive player in Chinese football and even world football, as long as he faces the goal in the frontcourt, he can pose a threat in any position. Too specific requirements will tie his hands and feet and limit his abilities.
Talent.
After the tactics were decided, everyone carried out orderly and targeted training. Only Wang Ai's training continued as usual.
Two days later, the team arrived in Bloemfontein to adapt to the venue.
On the afternoon of the 17th, on the mottled turf, the Spanish team in red and the Chinese team in white lined up respectively. After the national anthems of both sides were played, Wang Ai took the lead and walked past Casillas, Ramos, Pique,
Marchena, Capdevila, Xavi, Cazorla, Alonso, Mata, Villa, Torres.
Wang Ai also had a few words with Torres. In Spain, at the 2003 World Youth Championship, Wang Ai, who was just 16 years old at the time, met the young Torres in his prime. As a result, the Chinese team missed a move in the final, and Wang Ai
We lost to him. At that time, he was still very unconvinced and said: See you in the league.
Although the two exchanged jerseys.
Six years have passed. Wang Ai is 22 years old and Torres is 25 years old. They are both in their prime. Torres still maintains a very high level of competition and is always on the final list of football awards. As Wang Ai grows older,
The maturity of the body shines even more.
Faintly, the status gap between the two sides widened.
Even Torres's supporters dare not loudly say that he will definitely win two awards.
Looking at Torres who was still handsome, Wang Ai smiled: "Fernando, long time no see."
Seeing the tough Wang Ai hiding in his smile, Torres also smiled: "Yes."
Then the two separated. Wang Ai went to the center circle to ask Cassie for a guess. Torres still looked at him a few times. After the two "separated" from Abu Dhabi in 2003, Wang Ai successively played in Deportivo La Coruna, Chelsea and
Playing for Inter Milan, Torres played for Atletico Madrid and Liverpool.
However, Wang Ai has won the Champions League three times, and he must win it once for every team he joins, and once every other year! Some reporters ridiculed him for his lack of loyalty, and ran away immediately when he found out that the team was declining. But with such acumen and negotiation skills
, which is what most professional players envy.
At 16 o'clock in the afternoon, South Africa time, both sides stood in their respective positions. Torres stepped on the ball and waited for the whistle. Not far from him was Wang Ai in white.
The whistle blows and the ball is out!
Different from other games where the attendance rate was only 50%, because of Wang Ai, there were slightly more people coming to this game, about 5.50%. As the number one football player in the world, he couldn't have more people.
Not long after the show started, today's CCTV commentator Zhang Lu exclaimed. Duan Xuan rarely asked him why, but looked at the screen with his eyes wide open and muttered: "Harvey passes the ball, Zhao Xuri destroys it,
Zhou Haibin responded, but was snatched away by Alonso midway, but before Alonso could grasp it, he was destroyed by Hao Junmin... It was too intense, surprisingly intense."
Only then did he remember Zhang Lu: "Director Zhang, what do you think?"
"Unexpected, hey, unexpected, Xiao Gao is very brave." Zhang Lu composed himself: "Judging from the starting list before the game, the Chinese team obviously chose a defensive and counterattack style, but during the game, at least in the first few minutes, it was not like that.
The battle in the midfield between the two sides seemed to be evenly matched, and the Spanish team's smoothness was completely missing."
"Now the football is at the feet of Chen Tao on the wing. He dribbles on the spot to avoid Villa's impact. Is it time to attack? Okay! Chen Tao is breaking through on the wing. He goes down, goes down, crosses, crosses,
Oh, Wang Ai didn't get the first point this time." Duan Xuan calmed down and said, "Coach Zhang, do you think it is reasonable to suddenly move the midfielder who completed a hat trick in the last game to the wing?"
"I don't know what Xiao Gao is thinking specifically." Zhang Lu admitted frankly: "From me, at least it's a little early to say whether it is reasonable. The head coach will definitely try every means to win."
"Then what is his possible purpose?"
"Based on the preliminary analysis of the first few minutes, there should be several points. One is Chen Tao's technical characteristics, which the Spanish team should be familiar with. It will be difficult for him to perform as well as he did in the last game; the other is Chen Tao's physical fitness.
He lay down after scoring the third goal in the last game, which must have consumed a lot of energy. Everyone has seen the situation in the midfield now. It is very intense and requires a lot of physical fitness. He may not be able to hold on if he is here.
; Another thing is that our midfielder is head-on. If we gain control, we won’t use him, but after he goes to the wing, our wide front can launch threatening attacks everywhere.”
"Are we going to compete with Spain for control of the midfield?"
"Hehe, yes!" Zhang Lu said with rare excitement: "I can't say what Xiao Gao's commanding level is, but one thing is that he is very familiar with this team. From 1999 to 2009, except for the two years in between, he
In addition to leading the professional team in Tübingen, I almost always take them with me. This way I don’t have to understand the team, just observe the opponents directly.”
Duan Xuan listened, and Zhang Lu continued: "In the last game, he moved the two defensive midfielders to the wings to play as wing midfielders. It was already surprising. How dare he do it? What was the result? Won, under control.
The South African team's wing penetration. In this game, he moved the two players back to the defensive midfielder and asked Chen Tao to play as a winger. This is what can be achieved by having a deep understanding of the team. He knows they can do it, and he
I can tell them what to do in a timely manner and help them do it.”
"So, do you think this is a show?"
"Hey." Zhang Lu stopped talking: "Look again, look again."
"Okay, now the football is at the feet of the Spanish team, which is organizing an attack... It has been 13 minutes since the start. Both sides have a shot. Xavi's long shot from the outside is too on target, and Zong Lei easily gets it. Hao Junmin's long shot misses the target
Outside the door, Casillas also made a save. Our little Wanger got two chances, but neither turned into a shot. Ramos and Pique marked him very closely. So now, Zhang will guide you
How do you think the game will go?"
"Now that I see it, I think most fans have figured it out, right? I can't say the final outcome, but I can guarantee that the national team is seeking to win and is seeking to defeat the European champion Spain."
