Del Bosque changed the previous 4-3-3 formation to 4-4-2, which aroused heated discussion among media reporters.
Many reporters look for the hidden true purpose behind the performance.
"If it's for Li, I think it's completely unnecessary. With his reputation and strength, there's no need to do this!"
"There are probably many things we don't know about this. It may be related to the recent demonstrations in Catalonia. Bosque has to consider these things."
"Football has nothing to do with politics!"
"That's what I say, but when it comes to the critical moment, it's another matter..."
"I agree with this point of view. Think about what Argentina did before the game in 1978? Why did France cancel part of Brazil's debt before the 1998 World Cup...Does this have nothing to do with politics?"
"Why!……"
Spanish fans looked at Michu in the forward position and were shocked. Who is this?
Why can he start?
In the talented Spanish team, Michu is a little-known player. People can only remember him for one thing - on December 24, 2012, in what is known as the "Battle of the Scorers" between Manchester United and Swansea.
In the first game in Spain, Michu took the top spot with a goal and tied a terrifying record of Aguero.
Van Persie, on the other hand, gained nothing and was accidentally shot in the head by an opponent's player, almost causing a conflict.
Manchester United finally drew with Swansea, and Robin van Persie lost to Michu.
Apart from this, he has no outstanding achievements.
Compared with Li Chuanqi, these achievements are far behind.
…
As a person involved, Li Chuanqi sat safely on the bench. Of course he also knew why Del Bosque changed the formation.
For his sake, Del Bosque changed the Spanish team's most commonly used 4-3-3 formation and started Michu.
This paves the way for him to take the field.
Bosque had good intentions for him.
This not only blocked the mouths of the Barcelona gang, but also made it natural for him to come on as a substitute.
"Beep!..."
As the referee blows his whistle, the game officially begins.
The Belarus team, which was the first to serve, moved the football to the backcourt, and the Spanish team's frontcourt immediately crossed the half court to press.
Belarus accelerated the offensive rhythm, quickly moved the football to the frontcourt, and launched the attack.
In the fifth minute of the game, the Belarusian team got a long-range shot opportunity outside the penalty area. Baranovic's long-range shot went over the crossbar.
In the next game, the Spanish team firmly controlled the football at their feet and launched a fierce attack on Belarus!
In the eighth minute of the first half, Spain launched an attack in the middle. Xavi passed the ball diagonally into the penalty area, and Pedro followed up with a push!
The football missed the goal!
Two minutes later, Spain made a comeback, Xavi passed the ball, Cesc Fabregas volleyed forward, and the football missed the goal!
In the 13th minute of the first half, Silva made a breakthrough pass from the wing. Michu followed up with a header and the ball missed the goal!
In the 18th minute of the first half, the Spanish team got a corner kick opportunity. Xavi directly sent the football into the penalty area. Ramos overwhelmed the opponent's defender and hit the goal with a fierce header!
When the Spanish fans were about to cheer, "Pong!..." there was a loud noise and the football hit the crossbar hard!
"coax!……"
There was a huge cry of regret at the Calderon Stadium.
Belarusian center back Tigorev pushed the football out of the penalty area. After Xavi got the ball, he shot angrily!
The football hits Pique and reflects the bottom line!
The Spanish team is on the offensive, and Belarus is crumbling.
In the next game, the Spanish team continued to besiege the Belarus team, but they were still unable to knock on the opponent's goal.
In the end, Belarus held on to its goal tenaciously and ended the first half with a score of zero to zero.
When the players from both sides returned to the locker room, Spanish fans led by Atletico Madrid fans suddenly shouted at Del Bosque: "Lee! Lee! Lee!..."
Del Bosque had no expression on his face, and Pedro and Michu looked a bit ugly. As the starting forwards, they failed to gain anything in the first half.
Spain basically completely controlled the situation on the court. Apart from the long shot in the opening game, Belarus did not even have a shot.
As the team's forwards, the two got many offensive opportunities, but failed to seize any of them.
For fans to call Li Chuanqi is their greatest ridicule and dissatisfaction.
The commentator of the Spanish National TV Sports Channel said: "The Spanish team had a strong offensive in the first half, but it always felt like something was missing, so it was never able to score a goal.
This should be related to Iniesta's absence. Without his sharp breakthrough to tear apart the opponent's defense, the Spanish team would be difficult to obtain excellent shooting opportunities.
For this Spanish team, Xavi is indispensable, but Iniesta is also indispensable.
Del Bosque should consider playing him in the second half to change the situation on the court.
The second is the forward's ability to seize opportunities.
Pedro is not a forward in the orthodox sense, and Michu's performance was average. He had three shots in the first half, but none of them hit the goal frame!
Del Bosque should consider letting Lee play!
Since you selected him for the Spanish team, you should let him play."
After a fifteen-minute intermission, players from both sides returned to the court.
Li Chuanqi and Iniesta began to warm up on the sidelines, and the two continued to communicate during the warm-up.
At halftime, Del Bosque had them both ready to go.
Is Iniesta really injured?
It does happen, but it's not serious and won't affect the game. There's no problem letting him start.
However, Del Bosque put him on the bench. The profound meaning of this can only be understood by those in the Spanish team.
After the second half of the game started, the Spanish team continued to besiege Belarus.
The Belarus defense line was under a lot of pressure, but they tenaciously resolved Spain's attacks time and time again.
"plum!"
"plum!"
"plum!……"
Li Chuanqi's name rang out once again at Calderon Stadium.
In the stands, Miguel said: "It's time for him to play this time!"
Pablo nodded and said: "He and Iniesta have been warming up since the start of the second half, which already explains the problem!"
Liag didn't speak, or he didn't want to say these boring words at all.
His apprentice has already proven himself in La Liga and the Champions League, and there is no need to prove himself in the Spanish team.
In a word, he believes that Li Chuanqi does not need the Spanish team to add glory to him, but the Spanish team needs a striker like him.
In the eighth minute of the second half, Silva once again made a breakthrough on the wing, kicked an inverted triangle, and the football flew towards Michu!
Michu raised his left foot on the penalty area line and shot!
The football flies into the sky ridiculously!
"Shh!..."
There were huge boos at the Calderon Stadium.
Soon after, Li Chuanqi and Iniesta followed the fourth official to the sidelines.
Belarus coach Kondratiev looked solemn.
Miguel said excitedly: "Damn, he's finally going to play!"
