Football irons are burning

Chapter 94 Warm Up
Although the game is just a warm-up, Magath still attaches great importance to it. This can be regarded as his first official game in charge of Kaiserslautern.

The team formed a 4-3-3 lineup, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Di Natale and Drogba formed the striker, the three midfielders were Stankovic, Shao Jiayi and Li Tie, and the back four were Stam, Materazzi, Carvalho and A. Friedrich.

The three Chinese players played together, naturally to satisfy the Chinese fans.

When they played, they won more cheers than the players of the home team. This made the players of the Beijing club full of envy and jealousy.

As a player from the Beijing club, Shao Jiayi also received a tsunami of cheers from the home fans. Although he missed a penalty kick in the World Cup, everyone did not blame him. Baggio also missed a penalty kick. What is that?
After the game started, the capital club took the initiative to attack.

Although they are not as strong as their opponents, they must not be cowardly when they play at home.

In the opening 1 minute, Gao Feng received a pass from Xie Feng, and the ball was instinctively pounced by Bout.

Gao Hongbo made a supplementary shot, which was destroyed by Stam and went out of the baseline.

For the subsequent corner kick, the defenders of the Capital Club also pressed in.

But after the corner kick was taken, the ball was given to Li Tie by Stam.

After Li Tie got the ball, he immediately took a few steps forward, and then made a long pass to find Drogba accurately. Drogba headed the ball a little, and Stankovic kicked in with a powerful shot and blasted open the gate of the Beijing club.

It was too easy to break the door.

The opponent didn't have time to retreat, and the lagging players couldn't defend Drogba and Stankovic at all.

In the 11th minute, Li Tie and Stankovic cooperated again. After receiving the pass, Li Tie stepped in to attack, then went straight to Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Ruud van Nistelrooy made another pass, Drogba made another header and passed it accurately to Li Tie, Li Tie scored with a blast, 2:0!

Although the opponent's strength is not good, the cooperation is really smooth.

Magath looked very satisfied on the sidelines and kept nodding.

Li Tie did not celebrate. This kind of warm-up match is against a Chinese team. Why celebrate?

Subsequently, he was replaced by Magath and Makelele.

Malouda also came up and replaced Shao Jiayi.

In the 29th minute, Stankovic made a strong frontcourt, and then passed to the wing. Malouda made a precise cross, and then Drogba easily scored with a header, 3:0!

"Brother Tie, do you want to say hello to them? Don't enter too much, or you will lose your face." Shao Jiayi whispered to Li Tie worriedly.

Li Tie nodded, and immediately went over to talk to Magath.

Magath also gave face, and started to change people again with a smile.

Deco goes up and replaces Stankovic.

The final score was 5:2, Kaiserslautern beat the opponent.

Kaiserslautern also allowed the Capital Club to score two, which can be regarded as giving face to the owner.

Li Tie was interviewed after the game, and many media reporters surrounded him.

"There is not much comparison between the two teams. Kaiserslautern is stronger than the Beijing club, so the score is reasonable. Domestic clubs play more games with European teams, which can improve a lot, and our players can learn a lot. After digesting these things, they can grow. The goal of the new season? In fact, everyone knows that I didn't play much last season, and the team won the championship. Therefore, I will devote myself to this season, and Kaiserslautern has strengthened a lot. Let's strive for the Triple Crown. Everyone can pay more attention to Kaiserslautern."

Li Tie uttered wild words, he has always been like this.

After the match against Beijing Club, Kaiserslautern's trip to China is considered to be over.

Kaiserslautern flew to Tokyo again, and had a warm-up match with the Japanese national team.

This time the appearance fee is higher, reaching 300 million marks, so of course Kaiserslautern will not refuse.

Anyway, the team is now in the running-in period, so there is no harm in warming up more.

After the plane landed and came out, Li Tie was a little surprised.

Outside the airport, many Japanese fans picked up Li Tie's portrait. After Kaiserslautern came out, many Japanese fans were shouting Li Tie's name.

This Japanese really worships the strong.

Since people are willing to be a licking dog, Li Tie still politely signed some Japanese fans, which made these fans scream even more.

Because of the arrival of Li Tie, the Japanese team has not yet entered the World Cup.

Li Tie's performance in the Bundesliga and the World Cup obviously made Japanese fans respect him.

"Captain, Japanese fans are crazier than your Chinese fans." Stankovic said as he walked.

Li Tie laughed and said, "People in this country tend to be abused. Don't be merciful during the competition, and they will respect you more."

"Really? Captain, I heard that Japanese women are very open. Is it true?"

Stam also came over and asked.

Li Tie smiled and said: "You are right, you can go and enjoy after the game."

The reception work on the Japanese side, the specification is very good.

Li Tie also enjoyed the hot spring to relax the fatigue of travel.

The next day, the team was free to move around. Although Magath was very strict in training, at this time, he was quite humane.

Later, a press conference was held, and Li Tie participated with Magath.

There are quite a lot of questions from the Japanese media, especially Li Tie.

"I have a good impression of Japanese football, and its technical level is very high. It did not appear in the World Cup this time. There are certain objective factors. The gap between Chinese and Japanese football? It is very small. In fact, the foundation of Japanese football is better than that of Chinese football. This aspect is worth learning from Chinese football."

Li Tie is very polite and objective. His attitude towards Japanese football naturally has the vision of a traveler.

In another time and space, Japanese football developed quite well, and once had the ability to compete with European and American teams.

The basic development of Japanese football is good, and at a certain time, it will naturally explode.

People are not eager for quick success, and develop youth training honestly.

"Prediction of the game? Objectively speaking, there is still a certain gap between the Japanese team and we will win the game. I know players like Nakata Hidetoshi and Nakayama Masashi are very good, but our defense will be very tough, and our offense will make the Japanese team's defense line unable to last for a few minutes. Japanese players play in the five major leagues? No problem, their skills are good, and it will be no problem to find their own positioning. I wish them an early entry into the five major leagues."

At 7:[-] pm the next day, the game between Kaiserslautern and the Japanese team began.

This warm-up match, from the very beginning, was a one-sided situation.

In the 5th minute, Li Tie overturned Hidetoshi Nakata, and then made a pass. Stankovic caught the ball and took a long shot.

After conceding the ball, the Japanese team also played a wonderful offense.

But Kaiserslautern's defense was stable. In terms of physical confrontation, the Japanese forward had no chance at all.

And Li Tie's wide-ranging coverage also made the Japanese team only pass back continuously.

In the 12th minute, Hidetoshi Nakata singled out Li Tie again. Although his feet swayed frequently, Li Tie was unmoved. When he kicked, he still kicked the ball away.

Li Tie rushed forward immediately, passed the midfielder and passed to Stankovic again.

Stankovic took a step forward and saw that the defense of the Japanese team was still shrinking. He was restrained by Ruud van Nistelrooy and Didier Drogba. He immediately volleyed and the ball hit the post, 2:0!

Stankovic's footwork is a bit unsolvable.

And the Japanese team also suffered because of their shrinking defense!

Of course, if they expand to defend, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Drogba's singles ability will make them suffer again. One defense and one defense, it is difficult for Japanese players to defend against the two of them.

Conceding two goals in a row, the Japanese team really expanded.

Although it was just a warm-up match, the Japanese team obviously didn't want to lose so badly.

As a result, their line of defense immediately began to be full of loopholes.

Perhaps at the Asian level, they can still cover up these loopholes, but facing a team of Kaiserslautern's level and facing these outstanding stars, these loopholes are the lice on the monk's head-obviously!

Therefore, soon the Japanese team's goal was opened continuously.

They defended the center, but they couldn't defend the sides, and their natural height was not enough, which also made their defense tight, and they couldn't hold Drogba at all.

Drogba played very comfortably, crushing the opponent at such a height, and the body collision has a complete advantage, and there is no way not to have the advantage.

This game made the home team fans feel desperate.

It was not until the last moment of the game that Kaiserslautern saved a little face because of Stam's mistake, allowing Masashi Nakayama to seize the opportunity to score a goal.
