Chapter 331 A Special World Cup

The situation of the World Cup in Qatar is too special, just in the middle of the season, so Wang Yi couldn't persuade Bernardo, and finally Bernardo moved to Atletico Madrid.

With the start of the new season, the 2022-23 season, Wang Yi still performed bravely in the first half.

Before the start of the Qatar World Cup, he had basically determined his fourth Golden Globe.

Someone will jump out now, how can you be sure that Wang Yi will definitely win the Golden Globe?

If Messi or Ronaldo win the World Cup, then one of them must win the Golden Globe.

This is true.

However, at the beginning of November before the start of the World Cup in Qatar, Wang Yi scored 11 goals in the league and 21 goals in the UEFA Champions League. You must know that this league has only been going on for a few months.

And Wang Yi's direct competitors, Messi was beaten by Wang Yi in the Champions League last season, and lost all direct conversations, unless he exploded in the World Cup and won the World Cup by himself, and Ronaldo, although last season Ronaldo performed very well, scored 36 goals in Serie A, won Serie A, and entered the semi-finals of the Champions League, but after all, whether it is Ronaldo or Messi, the number of goals and the number of championships are far inferior to Wang Yi.

The only problem is that the Chinese team is too weak. Although the Chinese team won the Asian Cup and most of the players who won the Olympics have entered the World Cup squad, the Chinese team is still too weak at this time.

But the opponents in the group are so strong, so many people think that the Chinese team may compete with the United States for third place.

And the rule that the third place in the group can also advance does not apply to this competition, which will be the next 26 World Cups.

So Wang Yi and the Chinese team faced a very difficult situation.

And just after November 11th, the five major leagues basically stopped, and the national team players of all clubs had to go to the national team to report.

Wang Yi also went directly to Qatar.

The Chinese team's Group C is in the city of Doha for three games.

Two of those games were played at the Sports City Stadium and one was played at the Port of Doha Stadium.

The Chinese team's preparation base is also located on the east bank of Doha, which is only 1 or 2 kilometers away from the Sports City Stadium, which is very close.

Since the Chinese team decided to enter the World Cup in Qatar in 21 years, China has immediately started to build a training base in Qatar. This time it directly bought a holiday villa, so the Chinese team's preparation base is also the largest among all teams. Wait until After the World Cup, this resort can also be put into operation directly.

After Wang Yi arrived at the base, head coach Lippi and assistant coach Li Tie were in the conference room of the training base.

And Wang Yi came to the base.

Lippi smiled and said to Wang Yi: "My captain, come and sit here."

Lippi pointed to the position next to him, in the middle of the long conference table, with Lippi on the left and Li Tie on the right, looking like Wang Yi's two guardians.

Wang Yi didn't bother with these anymore, and sat down directly.

Lippi handed the list of players to Wang Yi.

Among them, the goalkeepers are Yan Junling, Wang Dalei and Guo Quanbo.

The defenders include Deng Hanwen, Li Lei, Zhang Linpeng, Zhu Chenjie, Jiang Shenglong, Tong Lei, Yu Dabao, and Micro Motion.

In midfield, there are Duan Liuyu, Huang Zhengyu, Xu Xin, Peng Xinli, Zhang Xizhe, Yan Dinghao, Wu Xi, and He Chao.

In the frontcourt, there are Wu Lei, Zhang Yuning, Guo Tianyu, Huang Zichang, He Zhenyu and Wang Yi.

Among them, the only non-post-90s players are Wu Xi, Yu Dabao, Wang Dalei and Zhang Linpeng.

Among them, the post-95 players who are at the peak of their careers basically account for 80% of the national team's lineup, so the national team can be regarded as a successful replacement.

Of course, except for 4 players who are still playing in China, the other players are all overseas players. It can be said that from around 18 years ago to the present 4 years in the world, China’s overseas study plan has been implemented very well, and there are still some overseas players. Among those who were not selected for the national team, there are many famous players among them, but they have these problems of not playing much time in the club, so they were not selected for the national team.

In short, the Chinese team can be said to have inherited the advantage of China's latecomers and first comers. In just a few years, it has completed a lineup with almost all members studying abroad.

"As the goalkeeper, I am planning to take Yan Junling. He performed very well in Shanghai and is very stable. The stability of the cup is still the first."

Wang Yi also agrees with this point of view. Yan Junling is 32 years old this year, which is the golden age of a goalkeeper. In this season's Chinese Super League, Shanghai SIPG also won the championship, and Yan Junling performed very well.

"Left back, if nothing else happens, Li Lei will be the starter. He performed well in Eindhoven."

Li Lei only went to study abroad in the summer of 21. He is the oldest one to study abroad in the past few years. This is also a signing that Eindhoven coach Schmidt advocated. Originally, in the first half of the 21-22 season, Li Lei is a rotation player, played 7 times, which is not bad, but in the second half, PSV Eindhoven's main left back was injured, Li Lei seized this opportunity, even though the main left back returned from injury, he started a few times. Again, his performance was not as good as Li Lei's.

In this way, Li Lei, an older overseas player, seized this rare opportunity and became the main left back of Eindhoven in this year. According to Li Lei's own words, he really never thought that he would become Eindhoven. Huo Wen's main player.

In fact, many Chinese fans did not expect that most people thought that Li Lei was 29 years old when he went abroad to study abroad, and he was probably a substitute, so when Li Lei was a rotation player at the beginning, many Chinese fans were already very satisfied. After becoming the main force, the domestic fans are even more rejoicing, which can be regarded as making up for a shortcoming of the national football team.

"My main force at the right back is Deng Hanwen."

Deng Hanwen went abroad to study abroad in the summer of 19. After playing for Guimarães in the Portuguese Super League for two seasons, he was spotted and signed by Valencia in the summer of 21.

And in the 21-22 season, he became Valencia's main rotation player. He played 31 games in one season. He was said to be the main rotation player, but in fact he played more games than the main player.

"The central defenders are Jiang Shenglong and Zhu Chenjie, with Zhang Linpeng and Yu Dabao as substitutes."

Wang Yi is also familiar with Jiang Shenglong and Zhu Chenjie. They have been teammates in the Olympics, and their strength has improved a lot after a year and a half of training.

"I am going to play a double midfielder in the World Cup. It is still 433. The position is a double midfielder. A central midfielder is placed in front, and the front midfielder is not placed. The back is a double midfielder. One of them is Xu Xin, and the other is Xu Xin. Wu Xi, you can be regarded as one old and one middle school."
