The strongest winger

Chapter 1128: World Problems

The two consecutive victories of the Chinese team before the start of the World Cup made Chinese fans extremely proud. Four years ago, the Chinese team unexpectedly entered the quarter-finals under the leadership of captain Aiello, and was eventually eliminated by Argentina because of the large overall gap between them.

Four years later, the current Chinese team is the Asian champion and the Confederations Cup champion. The Chinese team in this World Cup has been listed as one of the biggest favorites to win the championship. Some Chinese fans feel a bit unacceptable to the change of painting style.

Especially the older generation of fans, their feeling is the strongest. You must know that the Chinese team reached the lowest point in history ten years ago. After losing to the Japanese team in the Asian Cup final and finishing runner-up, they were eliminated in the top [-] of the World Cup in Germany at the end of the year because of the number of goals...

Everyone at that time thought that the Chinese men's football team was going to end...

But in 2005, Ai Luo was born. He led the Chinese National Youth Team to win the World Youth Championship in the Netherlands. All Chinese fans are very proud of the following things, because from then on, Ai Luo started his legendary journey in European football...

The members of the Chinese men's football team who won the game received huge cheers from more than 2 Chinese fans at the scene. Even after the game was over, the enthusiasm of the fans remained undiminished.

England captain Wayne Rooney, who did not lead the team to victory, shook his head and sighed. Just as he was about to walk to the player tunnel, a hand was placed on his right shoulder, so he subconsciously turned to look.

What Rooney saw was the smile on Ai Luo's face. Although he looked very comfortable, he and Ai Luo had been friends for many years, so he naturally knew that Ai Luo's smile was not a simple show of favor, but a demonstration on the contrary.

So Rooney rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Ai Luo ignored Rooney's rolling eyes, but directly withdrew his left hand, took a step forward, hugged Rooney's back and said with a smile, "Pang Lu, come on, believe in yourself, just like you can break into the world wave, you can definitely do it in the World Cup!"

At this time, Rooney woke up like a dream.

Yes, I can!
In fact, a long time ago, Rooney's self-confidence was very strong. During the Everton period, it was because of his lack of stage fright that he defeated Arsenal with a world-shattering kick, ending the opponent's unbeaten record of 49 league games.

In the Champions League final of the 2007-2008 season, it was his goal that helped Manchester United equalize.

But when he was at Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo showed greater strength and potential, so in order to get more glory, he had to choose to compromise, and this compromise also made his self-confidence decrease again and again.

"Thank you!"

Rooney also patted Aiello on the back in response, as a thank you.

After the warm-up match between the Chinese team and England before the Time Cup, Guardiola quickly focused on the next warm-up match opponent Mexico. As the last warm-up match before the start of the World Cup, he regarded it as particularly important.

Compared with the previous two warm-up matches, Guardiola is not ready to make a rotation, he wants to bring out the strongest lineup!
Nevertheless, the eyes and focus of the media concerned about the World Cup are still on the warm-up match that ended yesterday...

Many media believe that although England has become a second-rate team in the world, after all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Chinese team's 3:1 victory over England fully reflects its own super strength, especially the captain Ai Luo scored two goals in this game and also had an assist.

Compared with the warm-up match against Gabon in Shanghai, China, Aiello's condition is getting better and better, which worries the media in many countries.

The most immediate concern is the media from the three countries of Portugal, the United States and Ghana, followed by the four teams in Group H.

The European Red Devils Belgium, Russia, Algeria, and the South Korean media are all a little worried. The Chinese team is recognized as the most likely team to qualify for Group G. When the group stage is over, if they qualify from the group, they will probably face the Chinese team.

Taking precautions before a rainy day is the best way to choke fate's throat!
Even if the World Cup group stage has not yet started, as a country's media, it should look at problems from the perspective of the national team and help the national team solve problems...

After studying the match between China and England, a well-known reporter from Portugal’s “Record” gave advice to the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Paulo Bento, in his column. He believed: “The Chinese team is not as difficult to deal with as everyone imagines, at least... In my opinion, the Chinese team has a lot of loopholes, and their biggest loophole comes from captain Ai...Compared with the warm-up match between the Chinese team and Gabon in Shanghai, this warm-up match with England has more reference value. Ai’s two goals and assists are the key to the Chinese team’s victory. In other words... if we contain Ai in the game, then we have a great chance to beat the Chinese team?"

"Guys, this is not a hypothesis, but a result that is really possible. As long as we do our respective defensive work well on the defensive end, it will give captain Cristiano Ronaldo peace of mind, and he can focus more on offense, so as to get better opportunities and help the national team to make achievements in the score..."

Although the well-known reporter for the "Record" was extremely proud of his analysis, his statement was not agreed by anyone. Instead, he was ridiculed by countless colleagues as a dreamer and grandstanding.

Because everyone knows that on the football field, defending Aiello is a worldwide problem.

However, the well-known reporter of "Record" described lightly that the Portuguese national team successfully restricted Aiello, and then captain Cristiano Ronaldo led the team to the direction of victory. Obviously, this is not true.

If Aiello is so easy to be restricted, then he will not be as successful as he is now. It is impossible for Chelsea and Valencia to win the UEFA Champions League in a row, and the Chinese team will not win the Confederations Cup last year...

Everything means that Ai Luo cannot be restricted, and the only way is to prevent him from playing comfortably while increasing his offensive success rate.

This... is the best strategy for Portugal to win.

With the lessons learned by the Portuguese journalists, there was no so-called sensationalism later.

At this time, the media from Far East China naturally gave Ai Luo all the words of praise, because they knew... How far the Chinese team can go in the end depends on the specific performance of the captain Ai Luo...
