All-around substitute

Chapter 258 The Return of the Knight

In the locker room of the Chinese team, coach Kerry has not yet come to the lounge. The players sat in their seats with their heads down and said nothing. The whole locker room looked very dignified in this atmosphere.

Obviously, the players also know that the current qualifying situation is not good for them, and they are thinking hard about how to regain the initiative to qualify.

But their hard thinking, under the confusion of their hearts, they have no clue.

Morocco is devouring the qualifying quota of the Chinese team step by step, but they can only watch helplessly. This sense of powerlessness and frustration gradually erodes the inner sanity of the national youth players, making them unable to calm down...

It wasn't long before Kerry came to the locker room, and before that Kerry took a moment to explain some of the things that the substitutes had to do at halftime.

Letting all the substitutes go to warm up is actually a cover. Kerry's main purpose is to tell Xu Zangyi his second half mission.

Although two goals were conceded in the first half, the cost of consuming Turkey was a little higher, but after all, the task of attrition has been completed, so the combat plan formulated by Kerry must be implemented, otherwise it will be thanks to it!

Because of this, Kerry was delayed a little, but when Kerry entered the locker room, he was also intimidated by the atmosphere created by the players.

Of course, the "construction" here is not intentional, but the feeling that the players emanate unconsciously from the heart.

But it is this kind of unconscious depression that makes people feel scared. What does unconscious decadence mean?It shows that they feel hopeless!
In the deepest part of their hearts, they believed that 2-0 was a mountain they could not overcome, and another 3-0 game was sounding their death knell, and the knockout round of the World Youth Championship was getting farther and farther away from them!
It's a very scary thing for a team to lose hope.

Seeing this, Kerry immediately turned on his "blower mode". Of course, his blower was not to criticize the players' performance in the first half, but to calm the players' inner anxiety and loss, and take the responsibility on themselves.

For the team's performance, he had nothing to criticize. Although he was very dissatisfied with the two conceded goals, he did not vent his anger on the players.

After all, this has nothing to do with the performance of the players. To be honest, the Chinese team played very successfully throughout the first half, using the best way of the Turkish National Youth to contain the Turks.

Moreover, after losing the first goal, the team has made changes, played very proactively, and played in an orderly manner.

It's just that they need time to identify and adapt to changes in the opponent's offensive strategy on the court, and this is exactly what the head coach needs to remind.

Therefore, it is not unfounded for Kerry to take the responsibility. At least Kerry should bear more than half of the responsibility for the second goal conceded.

But now it doesn't make much sense to worry about who is responsible for conceding the ball. Who can change the result if the ball has been lost?Obviously not!So Kerry didn't waste his time on this one.

The most important thing now is to let the players not be affected by this score, and not be affected by the magical performance of the opponent Hakan Charhanoglu.

So he warned his players to remain calm and not to be anxious.

"...Don't forget! The second half is our real game! As long as you play normally, we can't lose. So remember, only you can beat you, don't pay too much attention to the opponent's two-goal lead. "

After being so comforted by him, the players' emotions finally stabilized.

Then Kerry took the tactical board and told the players the tactics for the second half.

In fact, he didn't have anything to say. Before the first half of the game, he had already made it very clear to the players that the first half was consumption!The second half is where their heroes come into play, but the cost of the first half is a bit high...

Therefore, Kerry did not make any tactical adjustments, because the tactics are perfect, and the adjustments cannot be adjusted better.As for the style of play after the change of personnel in the second half, Kerry also did not ask for a change. The first half has proved that this style of play made the Turks uncomfortable.

As for the offense, Kerry believes that with the tacit understanding between Xu Zangyi and the players, their offense will be very skillful, so Kerry is not worried...

……

In the Turkish locker room, unlike the silence of the Chinese team, the Turkish players were very excited. They were still shouting after returning from the court to the locker room, singing the praises of ***.

Leading the Chinese team 2-0 is enough to guarantee their victory in the third game.With enough 9 points in the group stage, there is no problem in qualifying for the top spot in the group.

Now they are considering who to choose as their opponent to advance to the knockout round, England or Colombia?

Soon the Turkish national youth team unified the answer and eliminated England to reach the quarterfinals.

Whether it is the England national team or the England national youth, the Three Lions seem to have less and less to do with them.

Since the old age of Shuangde, the England national team is just like Wang Xiaoer's Chinese New Year. One year is not as good as the next one. Rooney on the front line seems to be infected by Torres, and his state is terrible.

What is more terrifying than the overall downturn of the England national team is that England has no successors.Since Beckham Owen, England has not had a local star join the top four leagues outside the Premier League for a long time.

Of course, the reason for this phenomenon can be attributed to the good treatment in the Premier League, and players are unwilling to work in other leagues.But the deeper reason is that English players have lost the confidence to conquer overseas leagues. Where does the confidence come from?Nature is ability!

I still remember that Beckham chose to join Real Madrid when he was playing. His full moon scimitar was at the Bernabéu, and his arc of Beckham is famous all over the world.

As for the English stars who stayed in the Premier League, their worth is astonishingly high, but their actual ability is far from their worth. Are Lampard, Gerrard, and Rooney good?sharp!But it is far from Harvey, Iniesta, Messi, and Ronaldo, so why can the worth of these three be on the same level as the last four.

Having said that, England with Lampard and Gerrard did not achieve any impressive results even at their peak.

In Lampard, the younger generations after Gerrard are even more mediocre. Tottenham's Kane, Ali, Manchester City's Sterling, which one can become the first brother of the future club?You can't buy it in other leagues with pounds.

If it weren't for the advantage of the household registration of English players, there might not be many English players in the entire Premier League. (The Premier League stipulates that 25 players can be registered to participate in the league each season, of which there must be 8 local players.)
This point is very similar to China's top league. If it were not for the foreign aid policy, more than 80.00% of local players would be unemployed in the top league.

This kind of England can be described as extremely weak, so it is not very difficult for Turkish players to choose England.

But the premise of playing England is that they have to qualify first in the group. Therefore, in the game against the Chinese team, they must win their opponents.

The Turkish players were excited and restless, and they gradually quieted down until Lucescu came in.

After all the players were quiet, Lucescu said to them, "Don't be too happy, we only led at halftime, and we didn't play well in the first half. The second half is the biggest test for us. "

Everyone understands what he meant by saying this. In the first half hour of the first half, the Chinese team took the initiative. Apart from this, there is another reason that the core of the Chinese team, Xu Zangyi, did not appear on the stage.

So when Lucescu said this, most Turkish players turned their attention to Lucescu to see what kind of coping strategy he would make in the second half, whether to continue to confront the Chinese team head-on, or keep up with the first half The ending is the same.

"Now the Chinese team is behind by two goals. In the second half, their core players will definitely come up, and the opponent will definitely attack. Therefore, we have to play a defensive counterattack and counterattack when we have a chance. But if the opportunity is not good, don't rush in and out of the ball." Lucescu continued.

But Lucescu didn't say exactly what constitutes a chance and what constitutes a bad chance.

There is no way for this thing to be arranged before the game. It can only be judged by the players after they are on the court.

Therefore, this time is a test of a player's golf quotient and judgment of the game situation.

Some players who are not clear-headed only know how to pass through when they are in a hurry, but the result is that they frequently lose control, and eventually concede and lose.

There are also some players who look forward and backward, and are afraid of taking responsibility, even if they are faced with very good opportunities, they dare not make risky choices.

None of these people can serve as the core of the team's offense.

But Lucescu knew that Hakan Charhanoglu could do the job.

When judging when to take risks and when to be conservative, Hakan Calhanoglu is very sophisticated, not at all like a young player who is only 19 years old.

Lucescu believes that Hakan Calhanoglu will be the core figure in Turkey's midfield for the next ten years.

Therefore, after explaining all the players, Lucescu said a few words to Hakan Charhanoglu alone.

The most tested thing in the defensive counterattack is the mentality of the players, but fortunately Turkey leads by two goals, which is enough for the players to face it with peace of mind.

Hakan Calhanoglu is the engine of Turkey's offense. If he can attack and defend well, Turkey can attack and defend in an orderly manner.

There is only one thing that makes Lucescu very worried. He knows that the No. 7 player of the Chinese team is the core of the Chinese team. His performance in the first two games of the group stage has a crucial impact on the overall strength of the Chinese team.

Therefore, Lucescu asked midfielders Sigirch and Ozi Jacob to strengthen the containment of Xu Zangyi when Xu Zangyi was in control of the ball.

Let the two defensive midfielders defend against Xu Zangyi, which shows that Lucescu attaches great importance to Xu Zangyi...

……

After halftime adjustments, how will the game between the two sides unfold in the second half?wait and see...

　The chapters are in the wrong order again... Happy New Years everyone!
