Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 259 Warm-up is over
Being able to equalize the score, and after the start of the second half, be able to play on par with the Netherlands or even have a slight advantage-to be honest, Pei Wei did not expect it.

Of course, these two goals have a little bit of luck in them. The first goal was that the Dutch team had a little mental slack after leading by two goals, and the Chinese team just seized such an opportunity to recover. a ball.After a goal was pulled back, the Dutch team, who originally thought they would easily win the game, experienced another psychological fluctuation. They were eager to expand the score again, and they inevitably showed their flaws in the defense. In the first half, the Chinese team The performance of being barely able to fight back also made the Dutch team feel contemptuous. They were eager to press up and expand the score when the Chinese team had the ball. As a result, Hao Dong seized such an opportunity. If it was not such a coincidence, Then there may not be such a result.

But in any case, being able to equalize in this situation is a big face for the Chinese team, but for the Dutch team, it is a bit embarrassing.

"These guys...Frank, let the substitutes go to warm up! It seems that they have to put a little pressure on them. It doesn't matter in the warm-up match. If it is still like this in the World Cup, it will be troublesome." Hiddink frowned Head, said to Rijkaard beside him.

Rijkaard nodded, stood up and called the substitute players to warm up. Hiddink rested his chin on both hands, and there was already a little worry in his eyes.

"Have the Asian teams improved to this level? Then our group does not seem to be so easy to play. Belgium's defense, Mexico's technology... If you add a South Korean team whose level is not lower than theirs..."

As soon as the substitute players moved off the field, the Dutch players on the field immediately began to get nervous. Now is the critical moment before the start of the World Cup. It would be a pity if they were taken down because of their poor performance in the warm-up match.

The Dutch players on the field became a little more serious, while the Chinese team members, stimulated by scoring two goals in a row, encouraged Yu Yong to perform even better. They played crazy and they just played against the Dutch team. Confrontation, you come and I fight back and forth is lively.

The hundreds of Chinese fans at the scene were so excited that they were going crazy-we can play on a par with the Netherlands, and it is still the Netherlands that has shown its full strength!When did the Chinese team become so fierce?Could it be that he took the legendary stimulant?
However, both Pei Wei and Benitez saw that something was wrong. Now the Chinese team is carrying it all in one breath. Although the performance is very exciting now, when the excitement is gradually overwhelmed by fatigue, failure may come. up.

Marshal Qi next to him also saw this. When he saw that Benitez and Pei Wei were not moving, he couldn't help reminding: "It's not good to fight like this...the physical strength of beating them like this will drop. Soon, there are still ten minutes before the end of the game, do you want to change players to maintain your strength on the field?"

"It's not necessary." Benitez shook his head and said in unproficient Chinese: "Now we have achieved our goal, there is no need to show our full strength for such a warm-up match... this game will be considered a loss It doesn't matter, at least we have achieved the purpose of training and demonstrated our strength, so that's enough."

"It's also good to lose this game." Pei Wei said with a smile: "At least we won't be taken seriously... This is not a regular World Cup game, and there is no need to try to win."

Marshal Qi felt that his brain was not enough. He was actually a traditional Chinese coach and had his own way of training players, but he was far inferior to Benitez in terms of on-the-spot command and overall decision-making. coach.

It doesn't matter if it's not as good as Benitez. Marshal Qi also admires Benitez. Although Benitez snatched his head coach position, in fact Marshal Qi didn't want to do it too much at that time-the pressure was too great.But even Pei Wei, a half-hearted fan, could see it, which made him doubt himself.

In fact, it’s not his fault. Although Pei Wei is at most an experienced fan, he is definitely not as good as these domestic coaches who have learned a lot in terms of team training and management, but it is precisely because he is very concerned about the European League. Compared with the news of world football and those domestic coaches who work behind closed doors, his vision is much higher, not to mention that his actual mental age is over sixty, and he has eaten so many years of food anyway, Naturally know more.

As expected by Pei Wei and Benitez, in this kind of confrontation, the Chinese team is obviously not as sophisticated as the Dutch team. When they are about to see the dawn of victory, the more seasoned Dutch team has a similar opportunity. Seized an opportunity and overtook the score again.

In a seemingly flawless defense, "Ice Prince" Bergkamp tore the Chinese team's defense a little bit with his outstanding personal ability. Shot a brilliant shot without any fireworks, the ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and went straight into the dead corner of the goal, [-] to [-], the Dutch team overtook the score again!
After seeing the Dutch team's goal, Benitez shook his head invisibly, and then sighed softly.

This is the difference between a strong team and a weak team. A weak team may be able to make up for the gap in overall strength by using the correct tactics and high fighting spirit, but it cannot make up for the gap in the individual abilities of the players—the difference between superstars and ordinary players is exactly the same. It is here that a moment of their personal flashes is enough to decide the outcome of the game, but is it so easy to produce superstars?
Falling behind once again depressed the mood of the Chinese fans, but what made them feel relieved was that although the defeat was set, the Chinese team did not collapse, and they were still entangled with their opponents until the last moment, which made the Dutch team want to expand the score again. empty.

With the whistle of the referee, the warm-up match came to an end. The Chinese team lost the game, but they did not lose face, and their performance also won the respect of their opponents. Hiddink also took the initiative to walk over to the coaching bench of the Chinese team, and stretched out his hand to Pei Wei: "It was a wonderful game. I was surprised by the performance of the Chinese team."

Pei Wei smiled slightly, turned around and gave way to Benitez behind him: "This is our head coach...Spanish head coach Rafael Benitez—I'm just a translator."

************************************
After the warm-up with the Dutch national team, the performance of the Chinese team was highly praised: "They have good professionalism and excellent overall combat capabilities...We have reasons to be optimistic about the performance of the Chinese team in the World Cup... French team, you have to be careful, in the first game, you will accept the challenge from this East Asian team..."

In the next two warm-up matches, the Chinese team attracted many scouts to the scene to watch the game, some of them came to spy on information, while the other part were scouts from some European clubs to observe whether the Chinese team There are players worthy of attention and who can be introduced-after all, although European clubs basically have no idea of ​​​​developing the Far East market, there are also many teams that have taken a fancy to the huge market in China.

In these two warm-up matches, the Chinese team demonstrated two other tactics.

Facing the Norwegian team, which has nearly ten players taller than 1.9 meters tall, the Chinese team gave full play to their advantages of fast speed and dexterity. The twist was turned upside down. Although there is no good way to take the opponent's high-altitude bombing defensively, he performed very well offensively. Hao Dong scored in two consecutive warm-up matches, and the other goal was assisted. Wu Jiying made a supplementary shot in front of the goal, and the Norwegian team was scored by forward Torre Flo with two headers, and the two sides drew [-]-[-].

When facing the African team Monaco, the Chinese team was uncharacteristically, changing the defensive counterattack-based style of play in the first two warm-up matches, and took the initiative to play counterattacks, constantly launching attacks through two full-backs, substituting Gao Feng's Su Maozhen scored with a header, Nie Fei scored a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, and General Fan scored a powerful direct free kick in the second half. The only victory in the warm-up.

In the three high-quality warm-up matches, we achieved one win, one draw and one loss. This result satisfied the fans in China, and they also had greater hopes for qualifying for the group stage—if we also played in the group stage If you can get such a result, then maybe you will qualify!

Regarding this argument, the Chinese team is noncommittal. Everyone, including the players, already knows that the waters of world football are indeed relatively deep. Although they have the confidence to win, they will not blindly think that they are We must be able to win.

Pei Wei, who knows the mentality of the players well, is naturally very happy. The Chinese players he remembered in his previous life were either used to blind arrogance or too low self-esteem, or they shouted loudly when they played against the world's top teams. The sky is loud, yelling that I am not afraid of anyone, and then I am beaten back by others, and then I start to blame the turf, the weather, the referee... Or just hit any cat or dog, I am so nervous that I want to beat Burmese. All overseas players are called back to form the strongest lineup, from one extreme to another, this is undoubtedly the worst mentality.

Now the mentality of the Chinese team is very good. They can recognize their own shortcomings without losing confidence. Only with this mentality can they play their best.

After three warm-up games, the World Cup that the Chinese team has been waiting for for 40 years is coming.
