After the game, Perlan, who had been watching the game, also came to the door of the Chinese Olympic team's lounge. He did not go in and interfere with the players' celebration. Instead, he waited for the players to come out and shook hands with all the players of the Olympic team one by one.

Later, Perrin and the coaches and players who were walking at the end walked from the stadium to the parking lot, communicating while walking. Perrin said to Fu Bo: "When I return to the hotel later, in addition to praising the players who have performed well, I will also
I hope you can give more comfort to the players who made mistakes in the game. Today's opponents are very strong, even stronger than the French team, and they pay special attention to the Chinese team. This kind of game is very helpful to young players. Team members should not be intimidated by mistakes.
, if you can learn from experience and lessons, then that is the greatest training value.”
Fu Bo also said: "I can do it, they are all a group of good young men."
After this game, many fans said online that this was the most ups and downs and most exciting game in their history of watching football. The Olympic team obviously went all out. Many players were too tired to walk after the game, but they
is the best.
Even the People's Daily also commented on these Toulon Cup games. The report said: "Failed, reversed, defeated, these tragic words have been "inseparable" in the past two years.
"Never give up" to accompany this Olympic team. For this team, which is responsible for the important task of impacting the Rio Olympics, although they have many more competition opportunities than the national teams of non-Olympic age groups, in the spirit of "training the team"
In order to achieve the goal, many times they are faced with the small game against the big team. The more they compete, the more they lose. The game experience continues to increase, but the confidence of the team members is also gradually lost. Now, the team that was defeated
The teams are completely different in the Toulon Cup. Although it is impossible to make a simple comparison due to the nature of the game and the age of the opponents, it is enough to illustrate the progress of the Olympic team in this regard. We hope that they can give a gift to domestic football-loving fans.
Let’s have a more exciting game.”
After this game, the Chinese team's game against Mexico the next day seemed a bit uneventful. In fact, Mexico was very optimistic before coming to the Toulon Cup this time. Their attack and midfield combination were very strong, they played gorgeously, and scored goals.
There are many balls, and the individual abilities of the forward players are also very good; the team is mostly composed of players from Monterrey and Guadalajara in Mexico, and some media even call them the strongest in the group.
It's a pity that the players of this team are too independent. There are often a few forward players in the frontcourt fighting alone, causing the team's offense to be scattered. In the previous three games, they lost 0 to 2.
Portugal then lost to France 0-2, and only tied with Chile 2-2 in the third game. They were completely out of the next games, so they played more relaxedly in this game.
The Chinese Olympic team also made a lot of personnel adjustments due to too much consumption in yesterday's game. Zhu Xuhe, Wei Zhimin and Xiong Jian all sat on the bench, leaving only the central axis of Zou Weijia, Yao Tian and Du Zhenyu.
The Mexican team, which had no fighting spirit, and the Chinese Olympic team, which was weak in physical fitness, played the game in a drowsy manner. It was not until several substitutes came on in the second half that the game became exciting. In the end, the Chinese Olympic team relied on Zou Weijia's one-time performance.
A header locked the score at 1:o.
The Chinese Olympic team completed all group stage matches with an unbeaten record of 2 wins and 2 draws.
The current situation in Group A of the Chinese team is that the Chinese Olympic team ranks first with 8 points. France and Portugal both have 2 wins and a draw with 7 points. However, France overwhelms Portugal with a 5-goal difference.
Ranked second with 4 goal differences.
The final match between France and Portugal will determine the qualifying situation of the group. If they tie, France and Portugal will qualify together, and the Chinese Olympic team will be eliminated because the Chinese Olympic team only has a 3-goal difference.
.But once they decide the winner, the Chinese Olympic team will participate in the finals of the second place in the group.
In the end, the French team and Portugal upheld the spirit of fair play. The French team relied on two goals from captain Sarr and striker Sakho to defeat Portugal, which only scored one goal, and won the game, while Portugal was unfortunately eliminated.
.
The Chinese Olympic team players who had been watching the game on the sidelines cheered loudly after the game. They all applauded the French team's performance and also celebrated their success in qualifying.
In the next game, the Chinese Olympic team will face one of the teams from England or South Korea, and the two sides will compete for the third place in the Toulon Cup.
A little later, the opponent was determined. This time the opponent of the Chinese Olympic team is the England U21 youth team. The game will be held on June 1.
England has not participated in the Toulon Cup for many years. After taking office, the head coach of the England U21 youth team, Southgate, also hopes that the team can participate in more games and that the players can compete with teams of different styles. This is only
The team rushed over to participate in the Toulon Cup after finishing the U21 European Youth Championship qualifiers with Wales. England's 95-year-old players are participating in the U19 qualifiers, so this Toulon Cup is based on the inspection of 1994.
Mainly, the goal is still around the 2o15 European Youth Championship.
The performance of the players in this England youth team is very average. Judging from the previous games, the players who can play in the league are relatively stable and mature. Prowse, Raymond, Berahino, etc.
Moore, who went to Leicester, became the main skeleton of this team. Head coach Southgate is also pursuing a continental style of play. A technical midfielder will be placed in the midfield to connect the organization, and the wingers will also tend to take the ball and cut inside.
, seeking cooperation and transitional organization. However, the team as a whole still lacks bright spots. There are no talented players who shine immediately. Passing and controlling the ball is still very rough, and there are not many methods at the front of the penalty area.
As far as the 1994 players are concerned, except for Sterling, none seem to be particularly outstanding. Most of them are still on loan in the British Championship. The few players who played in the British League are also quite satisfactory.
Judging from the clubs behind these players, they are all Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and a bunch of English teams, but in fact these players basically play in the British Championship or even the English League One, such as McKechran.
The player who is hailed as Chelsea's most promising new star is spending his talent and aura on loan year after year. Players of the right age who are slightly famous, such as "The Trouble King" Morrison, are participating in the upgrade of the British Championship.
Competition, missed the competition.
Of course, there are also several players in this team who have played well later, such as the current main forward of the team, Berahino, who plays for West Bromwich Albion, and another who has achieved greater success later, and now can only be regarded as just now.
The up-and-coming Tottenham forward Kane, who Zhang Sheng knew later, scored 25 goals in the 2o15-2o16 season, breaking the single-season scoring record for Tottenham players and winning the British Golden Boot, becoming the first player in the 21st century.
England's native Golden Boot winner, but now Kane has just arrived from Tottenham after finishing the game. His physical fitness is very problematic and he has not had a chance to play yet.
Because it was a battle for the third place, both teams played very cautiously. Although the reputation of the third place was not very good, the ranking was the ranking, and no one wanted to give up easily.
After nearly ten minutes of mutual testing at the beginning, both sides began to slowly speed up the pace of the game.
When the strengths of the two teams are similar and the players are not outstanding, the coaching difference between the coaches will be reflected.
Although England's tactical details are so bad that they are often looked down upon by teams in Europe, and head coach Southgate is not a very good coach, but his ability is still far stronger than that of Fu Bo of the Chinese Olympic team.
.
The England U21 team handled the tactical details much better than the Chinese Olympic team. In the 23rd minute of the first half, McCachran's only aura flashed through. He continued to pass the ball in the midfield.
Yao Tian and Xu Xin were dropped, and finally the ball was given to Raymond on the left. This player with high dribbling skills and extremely fast speed squeezed through Xiong Jian's defense, broke into the penalty area, and then swept the ball to
He hit Berahino in the middle, and Berahino did not waste the pass. With a gentle touch of his foot, the ball flew into the net, and England took the lead 1:0.
After taking the lead, England began to play the familiar quick counterattack tactics. Raymond on the left and Prowse on the right, one was fast and the other was good at footwork, which caused great damage to the Chinese Olympic team's defense.
There was a lot of pressure, and these two players were the right and left wingers of the English club Southampton in the later period, which shows the strength of the two of them.
Facing England players whose physical fitness is generally higher than their own, the Chinese Olympic team, especially Xu Xin and Zhu Xuhe in the defensive midfield position, were under great pressure. It was not until the 36th minute of the first half that the Chinese Olympic team got its first kick.
There was a chance to shoot, and Yao Tian's shot completely deviated from the goal due to the interference of the English players.
Until the end of the first half, England still led with a score of 1:0.
After the start of the second half, the Chinese Olympic team began to consciously look for Zou Weijia to get the ball in the frontcourt, but Moore, the center back who plays for Leicester City, did not like Zou Weijia's body. He is 1.85 meters tall and weighs
A player weighing 86 kg will not suffer at all when facing a center player like Zou Weijia.
However, Zou Weijia soon discovered one of Moore's characteristics, that is, although he is very strong, he likes to use high-position interceptions to defend. This method is very talent-intensive. Once the high-position interception is not accurate, it will be very difficult to counterattack.
The scary thing is that even though Moore has good speed, chasing after a defensive failure is an unsafe thing after all.
After Zou Weijia communicated with Yao Tian, he asked Yao Tian to pass a small half-high ball to induce him to intercept at a high position. Soon Zou Weijia found an opportunity in the 61st minute. When Yao Tian passed the ball to Zou Weijia again,
, Moore's reckless interception failed. Zou Weijia did not pause after receiving the ball, but gave the ball to Wei Zhimin, who was on the left, and started to intervene himself.
Moore quickly chased back and passed Zou Weijia quickly, but Wei Zhimin's pass was very sneaky. He passed it behind Zou Weijia, but Moore had already run past. Zou Weijia passed the ball to the right with the instep of his instep, and Xiong Jian immediately stepped in.
He took a shot. The ball was out of position because of Moore. Xiong Jian's shooting route was very good. The ball drew an arc and flew around England goalkeeper Brandt into the net. The Chinese Olympic team was in a very unfavorable situation.
Evened the score.
Southgate angrily said to Moore on the sidelines: "Use your brain and don't be too impulsive."
Moore could only nod aggrievedly, and could only say that this was due to Moore's talent. He was strong, fast, and had good foot skills, but he never excelled. It was precisely because his golf IQ was not high. Later, Rice
It was for this reason that City sold him to Reading in the English Championship.
After the goal, the Chinese Olympic team started to defend across the board. Fu Bo replaced Xu Xin with Luo Senwen, turning the two midfielders on the field into defensive midfielders, hoping to maintain the score, and then took a penalty kick.
Decide the outcome.
Southgate began to make adjustments. He replaced McCachran with Kane. McCachran started making mistakes after his initial performance. Southgate had long been very dissatisfied with his performance.
Satisfied.
After Kane came on the field, his height of 1.88 meters showed his advantage. England's ball in the frontcourt was held very firmly by him, and Berahino, who was 1.77 meters, became Kane's partner. In this way
The combination of one high and one high is very sharp, not to mention that Kane's own footing ability is not weak.
Just before the end of the game, Du Zhenyu, who had always performed very well, made a mistake. He was not close to Kane, giving Kane a chance to shoot. This time Kane used a standard center move - Crewe
Yves turned around and got a chance, but Fang Jingqi was completely helpless in the face of such a close range burst.
England led 2:1.
After losing the ball, the Chinese Olympic team wanted to attack, but Fu Bo had replaced the offensive players in the frontcourt, and now there was nothing they could do offensively.
In the end, England won the game 2:1, and the Chinese Olympic team had no choice but to swallow the bitter fruit and finish third.
Even so, this second Olympic team has been unanimously praised by domestic fans. After all, there are still many stronger players of the appropriate age in the Olympic team, but they have all been selected for the national team. Fans unanimously believe that if
If all the strongest players of their age were replaced, there might be better results in this Toulon Cup.
Liu Jianhong’s concluding remarks are very representative: “Although this Olympic team failed to break through the Chinese team’s best result in the Toulon Cup, we at least saw hope. After a lot of investment in domestic football in recent years,
At least we have seen production. These players have grown up in such an environment. As long as we persist in this direction, the future of Chinese football is definitely bright." (To be continued.)
