After joking, Wang Ai also seriously explained to Huang Jianxiang and Dong Lu: "'Korean phobia' only exists in the minds of you media reporters and only exists from your perspective. It actually does not exist among us football players.
.Hey! Don’t rush to refute me yet.”
Wang Ai picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Yes, I also admit that we have indeed failed to win against South Korea in the past few decades, but we can't live with fear. If we have never won against South Korea, it will become what you have guessed and imagined."
"Fear", when you see the Korean team's legs trembling, it's too much. It's not just South Korea that we haven't won yet. Have we defeated Brazil? Have we defeated Germany? Britain, France, Italy, Spain, who have we defeated?
If never winning is fear, then are we more than Korean-phobic?”
"Then, what does Dr. Wang think of this strange result?" Huang Jianxiang thought carefully. He didn't dare to criticize just like ordinary players. In terms of professionalism, eloquence, and vision, the one in front of him is higher than a year and a half ago.
Many children are the most authoritative. At least Lao Huang thinks that with his own knowledge of football, he cannot tell whether Wang Ai is telling the truth or lying to him.
"It's easy to say that the characteristics of the Korean team restrain us. We in China have a large population, and the selection of players can select a group of players with the best physical conditions, so in surrounding competitions, or in competitions in most Asian countries, we have
We have strong physical advantages, such as Vietnam, Thailand, etc., so we are used to using our physical advantages to run rampant. But as for Koreans, their bodies are not worse than ours, but they are also rougher and more utilitarian than us, and they will do whatever it takes to win. In terms of mentality,
The Korean team entered professionalism earlier than us. For example, we have long adhered to the 1:0 principle of friendship first and competition second. This has never been the case in Korea. Therefore, the body is similar to ours, but the technology and awareness are stronger than us.
It’s not limited at all, but it’s rougher than us, and its desire to win is much stronger than ours, so it’s not surprising that it hasn’t been able to win against our opponents for decades.”
"In the final analysis." Wang Ai knocked on the table: "Two points. One is that football has changed from relying on mutation in the past to relying on technology. The stronger the country is, especially the higher the per capita income level, the more developed the sport will be. When
When the citizens of a country generally work hard to make a living, they naturally have no time to practice football professionally. Look at the United States, although they are not good at football, they are the best in basketball, ice hockey, and rugby. Europe, which is strong in football, does not
Having said that, even in South America, the per capita income is higher than ours. People call it moderately developed countries, but we are developing countries. Even though many Brazilian children come from poor families, without Brazil’s sound and developed football system, there are talented people.
What's the use? We in China also have a lot of talented football players, who has discovered and tapped them? Another thing is, we are making progress, and our opponents are also making progress. In contrast, our opponents are making progress faster than us, so it is impossible to keep beating us.
nothing to say."
Wang Ai talked for a while, and there was no profound truth, but it was convincing when it came out of his mouth.
After pondering in his mind for a long time, Dong Lu said, "Dr. Wang, are you pessimistic about tomorrow's game? Oh, don't worry, we are not interviewing now, just chatting among friends."
Wang Ai said with a smile: "Our opponents are improving, and we are also improving. As I said just now, Korean phobia does not exist among us. Although the Chinese football selection field is much smaller, our group is also the same age in the country.
Not to mention the best among people, he is also first-rate, or he has been praised by many people as a genius since he was a child. How can he be afraid of anyone easily? No matter what sport an athlete engages in, if he is afraid of his opponent, he will simply
If you don't play, there will be no fighting spirit at all. But if you recall, when did our Chinese team encounter the Korean team in the past, when did we lack fighting spirit? That is to say, we athletes have never been afraid at all. It is just due to our strength and luck.
You can’t win, so that’s why you have this illusion of fear of your opponent.”
"Since we are not afraid, we need to analyze the true strength of both sides." Wang Ai said with a smile: "Speaking of which, this Olympic team is not weak. Although the opponent's Park Ji-sung is in Eindhoven, it is said that Manchester United's Ferguson is very fond of him.
I'm interested. But are we short? I won't say it. He's still young. If it weren't for the labor certificate issue, Qu Bo would have landed in the Premier League. Now he is also the main force in the German Bundesliga. Zong Lei is also the main force. This is three to one.
, So, give us some confidence. Okay, no more chatting, Coach Shen called me, see you after the game tomorrow."
Wang Ai waved goodbye to the two of them and did not agree to return to Beijing after the game. He had not thought about it yet and did not say hello to Depor Club. Although he hurried back to Depor after the game, Irueta also had a big feeling.
You may put him on the bench, but this is an attitude. Just like Wang Ai, Qu Bo, and Zong Lei all ran back to compete regardless of fatigue after the game. Whether he can play or not, the attitude must be correct.
In the afternoon, the whole team practiced tactical coordination at the training ground. Unlike Qu Bo, who quickly integrated into the tactical system, Wang Ai had a more difficult time. Lao Shen let Wang Ai come on for half-time offensive and defensive drills and then let him off.
"Anyway, with your current physical condition, you can just watch." Lao Shen stood on the sidelines and said to Wang Ai, who was sitting on a chair and panting.
"Yes, that's right. I estimate that I can play for at most thirty minutes tomorrow. If the team led by you Shen can win the Korean team in the first sixty minutes, it will save me trouble and just take a break."
Shen Xiangfu shook his head: "This is an away game. Our goal is to maintain a tie and win again when we return to home court."
Wang Ai also shook his head: "There is no future."
"What did you say?" Old Shen stared.
Wang Ai rolled his eyes: "I mean this kind of football thinking is useless. We must go all out in the game, whether it is at home or away, we must try our best to win. The unfavorable conditions of the away game, such as accommodation, atmosphere, etc., are for
Professional players should not be a burden. Unless they play tricks on us in terms of diet and training venues, they will be forced to maintain a tie. Is this the case now? Has South Korea set a trap for us this time?"
The tender relationship between the master and the disciple yesterday was shattered in less than a day. Old Shen couldn't argue with Wang Ai, so he threw his hands away angrily. Sun Chengyao pointed to Wang Ai dumbfounded, and also turned away. For this pair of meritorious deeds
He didn't dare to get involved in the quarrel between the coach and the meritorious players.
March 3rd was still a cold morning, the temperature was below zero, and the yellow turf of Sangam Stadium was covered with a light layer of hoarfrost. According to the organizing committee, the tickets for this game have been sold out.
Two-thirds, this also indicates that the Korean team will go all out. Even if the Korean newspapers published today reported the news of Wang Ai's return to the Chinese team, South Korea did not have the slightest intention to give up, but instead inspired them even more.
Shameful desire.
