The game on the field is going on normally, and players from both sides are competing for the ball in the midfield.
Football is flying in the sky, and it neither belongs to the Chinese team nor to Italy.
At this moment, a huge noise suddenly sounded at the scene.
It was cheers mixed with boos.
This left fans who were watching the live TV broadcast confused and didn't understand what was happening.
But soon they heard the excited voices of their respective commentators:
"Caesar got up from the bench and ran to warm up! Looks like he's going to come off the bench!"
The same goes for the Chinese commentator:
"What does it mean that Caviglia will replace Caesar? It means that the Italian team is not willing to accept a draw... This is also normal. They will face the last-ditch host in the last round of the group stage. If this game is just to win a
A draw means little to them. Only by winning against the Chinese team can they take more initiative..."
"This is actually good news for the Chinese team. Italy will definitely strengthen its offensive, so that there will be more space behind them, and the Chinese team can counterattack..."
Whether it was He Feng or Yan Kang, when they talked about Caesar coming on stage, they were full of excitement, looking forward to what would happen next.
Logically speaking, as Italy's legendary superstar, Caesar's appearance often means a nightmare for his opponents.
But that was before.
Now Caesar has long lost that kind of deterrence. His appearance has been regarded as a loophole that can be exploited by his opponents...
It has to be said that after getting into this situation, even the most die-hard Kaiser fans would probably want their idol to simply retire to avoid further humiliation.
So when his companions congratulated Tang Yuan one after another and Caesar was about to appear, the expression on Tang Yuan's face was not happy.
He even said: "What are you doing here at this time? Are you here to take the blame?"
"Caesar is coming." Qin Lin's tone was a little nervous.
Unlike those optimistic fans and commentators, he smelled danger from this substitution.
The outside world has been belittling Caesar a lot now, but Qin Lin has always felt that if this kind of belittlement and ridicule stayed at the level of public opinion, there would be no problem.
But if professional coaches also believe the jokes made up by fans, it might not be so good...
Although in the last game against Nigeria, Caesar missed several opportunities and his performance was mediocre before being replaced.
But no matter what, this is a superstar who has created many miracles.
He should never be underestimated!
While Qin Lin was nervous about Caesar's warm-up, Dillon, who was not far away from him, had no time to pay attention to his former protégé.
His eyes were all focused on Luo Kai, and his brows furrowed slightly.
After pondering for a while, he said to Qin Lin: "Qin, go and call Li back from the warm-up area."
Qin Lin took the order and left, while thinking in his mind what kind of substitution adjustments Dillon would make, who he would replace and why, what adjustments would be made in tactics...etc.
But after he called Li Rong back, he discovered that Luo Kai might be injured!
Because Dillon was instructing the team doctor to make preparations. So he leaned over and asked Yu Jintao in a low voice: "What's wrong with Luo Kai?"
"The old man said that Luo Kai's left ankle may have been overloaded to support his body when he was fighting with Cherry in the penalty area just now..."
"Ah?" Qin Lin was surprised. He didn't notice this at all. Judging from Luo Kai's running movements in the past few minutes of the game, everything seemed to be normal. "I didn't see anything...
"The old man said that considering Luo Kai's character, even if he is a little uncomfortable, he will not take the initiative to express it, especially if he shows it, he may be replaced. If you see him running normally, then
It shows that he is deliberately covering up. But when Luo Kai fought for it just now, his right leg obviously did not extend forward enough, so he did not touch the ball. In fact, at that distance, if Luo Kai was healthy, it was entirely possible for Luo Kai to hit the ball.
hook
Coming back..."
Jin Tao also asked Dilong about this question just now, so he told Qin Lin exactly what Dilong told him.
"...Based on Luo Kai's recovery from his injury, the old man doesn't dare to take this risk."
While Caesar was still warming up, the Chinese team took the lead in making substitutions.
"Eh? Luo Kai is coming?" He Feng and Yan Kang were a little surprised.
Just now the two people were analyzing that after Caesar came on the court, the Chinese team could focus on playing fast offense.
And if you want to be fast enough, you need two wing players, Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai.
As a result, Dillon has been replaced by Luo Kai...
"Luo Kai played 62 minutes in the last game and was substituted. This game lasted 74 minutes. Luo Kai's performance was still very diligent. He had two shots on target, but his luck in scoring in front of the goal was a bit bad.
...Maybe he was still affected by the injury and was unable to fully display his characteristics... Dillon was probably worried about Luo Kai's injury, so he replaced him early...
The two people quickly guessed the reason why Dillon replaced Luo Kai.
In all likelihood, it is related to his injury. Since being injured in the Champions League semi-finals, Luo Kai has missed all the remaining club games and almost missed the World Cup.
Even if I catch up now, the injury is actually not completely healed.
There is no other way. If you really want to be quick and easy, you probably have to wait until the World Cup is over.
If he really wanted to do this, Luo Kai would be the first one not to be happy. He worked hard for four years, from the Dutch second league to the Premier League, just to participate in the World Cup? How is it possible for him not to participate in the World Cup?
Dillon is actually unwilling to kick Luo Kai out of the World Cup roster because his tactics really need a wing-back player like Luo Kai.
So it doesn’t matter if the injury is not healed. Anyway, very few professional players are in an absolutely healthy state. They are all injured to some extent. Most people fight with injuries, so just arrange their playing time reasonably.
He Feng and Yan Kang thought that Dillon was worried about Luo Kai's injury and did not dare to let him play the whole game.
But I didn’t expect that Luo Kai’s original injury might get worse.
Luo Kai, who was replaced, was actually disappointed, but he didn't show it on his face because he knew why he was replaced.
He had just finished handing over to Li Rong when head coach Dillon took the opportunity to pat him on the shoulder and said in his ear: "Let Master Feng help you check your ankle."
He knew that he had been seen through by the head coach just now...
So he lowered his head and went to find the team doctor, Master Feng. This team doctor, who had also participated in two World Cups, was a true expert in the Chinese sports medical field. He only made a brief inspection and concluded that Luo Kai's ankle injury had recurred.
Risk, and ice compresses were arranged first.
At the same time, he also criticized Luo Kai: "What are you pretending to be? If the head coach hadn't replaced you in time, would you want to be like Ramirez? What's the point of playing a few more minutes in this game? In exchange for
Are you happy that you won’t be able to play all the next World Cup games?”
Luo Kai was scolded so that he lowered his head and remained silent. He was unable to refute and did not dare to refute.
Qin Lin, who was observing the situation from the side, saw this scene and was convinced that Luo Kai was really injured.
He had to admire Dillon's ferocious vision. This may have been the result of many years of coaching experience for a seventy-year-old coach.
In this regard, I really still have a lot to learn.
It is not only professional knowledge such as technical tactics and training arrangements, but also a lot of "wisdom" as a coach.
Luo Kai was injured just now. Was it a simple "Dilon Eye Poison" that showed up?
After thinking about it, Qin Lin felt that it was not that simple. If you just look at it, you can't tell it. For example, after Cherry was kicked down by Luo Kai, his expression and movements when he got up were too deceptive.
But Dillon came to a conclusion based on Luo Kai's character and playing habits, which is much more reliable and advanced than just looking at it with his eyes.
Because external things can be disguised, but core things like personality and habits are particularly difficult to change.
However, this also requires the coach to pay attention to his subordinates
Every player knows everything and puts a lot of effort into doing these things.
Qin Lin felt that he really couldn't do this now.
He still spends too much thought on studying techniques and tactics, and cannot focus on exploring the hearts of every player under his command.
This is not a problem, after all, he is still young, and it takes time to accumulate experience and experience.
Now I can't force him to develop skills like Dillon.
But this incident was still a reminder to Qin Lin, reminding him to consciously pay attention to improving his abilities in this area and not just think about techniques and tactics.
Otherwise, he might as well just be a coach, or at most an assistant coach, and what kind of head coach would he be?
Not long after Luo Kai was replaced, there was a loud noise again, still mixed with boos and cheers, which fully demonstrated the complicated status of the old king Selius Caesar in people's minds.
.
"Celius Caesar was standing on the sideline of the pitch. He was about to be substituted! There was a huge cheer from the entire audience!"
The commentator must be professional, and he can describe the sound as cheers, creating an atmosphere where all the fans are welcoming the "Emperor" to the stage.
Chinese fans may be really welcoming - when Caesar was not in the starting lineup, many people on the Internet said that Italy took the initiative to reduce the burden. Now that Caesar comes on the bench, according to this logic, isn't it just Italy that has gained weight for itself?
It’s hard to say how many Italian fans, or Italian fans around the world, welcome Caesar’s appearance.
Although the poll conducted by "Corriere dello Sport" before the game was their "one opinion", it did reflect the current "public opinion" in Italy - the vast majority of Italian fans really believed that the 38-year-old Serius Caesar
It is difficult to bring any help to the team anymore. He should step aside and step down from that throne, do a good job of handing over the team, and give everyone and himself some dignity.
Amid the huge commotion, Italy's starting forward Daniele Di Kunzo walked to the sidelines, high-fived and hugged Caesar.
The latter patted DiCunzo gently on the back and ran onto the court.
He sprinted onto the court just like he had done countless times before.
After the first few steps, he slowed down and ran slowly toward his position with his head held high, as if he were a proud lion roaming on the African savannah.
"When the game reaches seventy-six minutes, the Emperor appears!"
