This game was not very exciting. Except for Wang Ai's wonderful shot and Xiao Zeng's 15-minute performance, the whole game was lackluster. The Spanish national team did not play a pass and control system that they are proud of, while China
The national youngster also took too many useless shots.
However, the Chinese youngster won after all.
On the afternoon of the next day, the Helsinki Embassy sent comments from major domestic sports newspapers published that day as well as portals such as NetEase, Sina, and Sohu. Most of the media's views were: If the Chinese national team can control it well and improve its shooting efficiency
, more goals will be scored in this game.
Of course, the media also severely criticized forwards such as Mao Jianqing, Jiang Chen and Gao Lin who came on as a substitute in the second half: they shot dozens of times throughout the game and never scored once. What kind of forwards are they?
Even the Chinese Football Association called Liu Chunming specifically. Although he did not criticize directly because he won the game after all, his dissatisfaction with the game was still palpable.
For this reason, Wang Ai specifically made a clarification in a telephone interview with CCTV Sports Channel the next day: "I think our forward players performed very well. This is not me protecting my teammates, but telling the truth.
.Our tactical requirements are like this. As for why we don't adjust to improve the success rate before shooting...this is our tactical secret! We still have many games to play, so I can't explain our tactical intentions to you in detail.
"
The implication: This is our tactical design, which reflects our tactical intention and achieves our tactical purpose. As for what we mean...guess it!
After Wang Ai's remarks were broadcast on CCTV, the domestic media, football commentators, etc. were all dumbfounded. Several major portals quietly withdrew the articles that strongly criticized the national junior forward. The paper media could not remove it, so they pretended not to say anything.
Pass.
You don’t even know what the young man is thinking. There are obvious differences in the understanding of football skills and tactics, and you dare to continue talking about it? It really drove Dr. Wang to panic, and he broke it all down clearly and rubbed it.
Explaining it clearly can indeed improve their understanding of football techniques and tactics, but the price is that their mouths will be red.
If it were any other player, the critics might still be unconvinced, but against Wang Ai, the last world junior champion, the critics really didn't dare to fight to the end.
Wang Ai also convened a meeting with the team members in the national youth team to provide psychological support to his teammates regarding the "powerlessness" and media turmoil in this game. A boy of sixteen or seventeen years old is exactly the age when he needs others to recognize him.
Criticism from the "high-minded" media cannot but have a psychological impact on them.
"After the game, we made technical statistics on the game video." Wang Ai stood in front of the blackboard facing all his teammates and said: "In the first half, the proportion of our shots in the goal frame was 36%. In the second half, this data increased to
55%.”
"This shows that under our tactical requirements and without seeking accuracy, the shooting efficiency of several forward players has still been improved." Wang Ai said with satisfaction: "In this game, we are going to shake our opponents with wild shots.
Confidence. We all know afterwards that shooting without success, but who knows during the game? Every shot we take has a psychological impact on the opponent. Is there no threat if the shooting opportunity is immature? Don't score a goal with a hasty kick.
Too many! It’s just that we are unlucky, so many hurried kicks have not been successful. But we need to see that our forward players have been well trained in this game. You are not used to this yet.
It's a hurried kick, but it doesn't mean you haven't made progress."
"Jianqing, Jiang Ning, Gao Lin, you guys." Wang Ai said with a smile: "Don't be panicked by what the media said. You should pay attention, no media has guessed our pre-game tactical ideas, they are all here
Simply talk about the game scene. In the final analysis, we are at the same level as ordinary fans. And what about us? We are professional football players and the best young players in the country. After defeating the United States and Spain, we can even
He is said to be one of the best young players in the world. Therefore, our understanding of football is different from that of the media. In other words, we are the most professional. Whether now or in the future, you will compete in the national team or local team.
Don’t pay too much attention to losing or being criticized by the media. We just need to show an appropriate attitude of humility. One thing to keep in mind is: they are unprofessional, and no matter how harsh the words are: they don’t understand.”
"So." Wang Ai patted his chest: "As long as you train and compete seriously, no matter who scolds you, I will support you! If you feel wronged, just come to me! Even if the club can't survive, Liaozu wants you, even
The young people of Tübingen also have a place for you!”
The slightly sad teenagers suddenly smiled. Mao Jianqing covered his head and smiled: "Boss, I feel more relieved when you say that. I used to train with the first team in Shenhua and watch them play. The coach said the same thing.
, and then the newspapers say the same thing, and sometimes I can’t tell who is right, seeing as their experts also say the same thing.”
"No matter how much a layman says, he is still a layman!" Wang Ai said categorically: "Also, let me give you a suggestion. If you have the chance, play less games, drink less, read more, and try to take the exam.
University. If you are a full-time student and don’t have time, you can just take a correspondence course. You can sway a bunch of laymen because you read too little. You don’t need to take a doctorate like me. A general undergraduate or junior college is enough.
.Modern football relies not only on the body, but also on the mind. This determines your ability to understand tactics. At the very least, if someone scolds you, you must read more books before scolding him back."
As soon as he mentioned going to school, his teammates fell silent. They would hardly come to play football if they were interested in learning. Zeng Cheng raised his hand with a smile: "Boss, your brain is enough."
"Fart!" Wang Ai threw the chalk tip at Xiao Zeng: "You will almost always be the main force of domestic clubs in the future. You will be dragged here and there by the media and fans every day. Can I stand up for you every day? I still have to
It's up to you. It's okay if you really don't want to go to college, but it's always right to read more books, right? Let me tell you, the more difficult a book is to read, the greater it will help you, and the more it proves that you are lacking this thing in your mind.
You should start with the junior high school textbooks, and then slowly move on to the high school textbooks. I just don’t have time, otherwise I would have to force you to attend cultural classes.”
After mentally building up his teammates, the Chinese national team faced the last opponent in the group stage on August 20: Sierra Leone.
In this game, the Chinese national team once again changed their style of play and adopted a pass-and-control tactic. The result was the same as in the first game against the United States. The rampaging Sierra Leone national team player was like a bull being played by a matador, with excellent physical fitness.
Sierra Leone was still struggling feebly until the last minute of the game.
It wasn't until the Fiji referee blew the final whistle that the bloody bull's suffering ended.
The Chinese national team defeated the Sierra Leone national team 4:0 and qualified as the first in the group.
