Godfather of national football

Chapter 159 Warm-up match ([-])
"It's the tactic where you pass the ball and hit Ji Ke on the head,"

This is Li Guo's way of taking shortcuts. As long as he can't beat in the Chinese Super League, Li Guo will adopt the tactic of Costa and Qu Bo breaking through the side and crossing, and then Ji Ke smashing in the middle.

The media called Li Guo's ugly tactics, but Li Guo himself disagreed.

After saying this, both Ji Ke and Qu Bo understood, "Boss, that tactic has been criticized as ugly in the Chinese Super League. Can it work for Spain?"

"Things that work are usually not pretty."

Ji Ke and Qu Bo looked at each other, thinking: "What kind of weird idea is this?"

"Anyway, you two can give me firm execution in the second half, and I will replace whoever is not firm."

*****
At the beginning of the second half, Spain changed two people in a row. The purpose of the warm-up match is to get more people into the game state.

Fabregas replaced Alonso.

Navas replaces Iniesta.
When he saw Navas, Li Guo couldn't help laughing. I remember that Li Guo watched an issue of "World Football" in his previous life. It is said that Navas has a strange mental illness, that is, homesickness. Once he leaves home for a while, he will get depressed. So in the away game in Sevilla, Navas was not in good condition.

"I really don't know if Navas will cry in South Africa in the next month," Li Guo thought.

But before Li Guo was worried about Navas, Navas gave Li Guo a slap in the face. This guy's speed is really fast. He made a fake move on the left side and then accelerated to overtake Mu Fei. Then he didn't make a cross, but continued to cut inside. When facing Zhou Dun, Navas changed his line to the bottom line.

In the penalty area, Zhou Dun did not dare to tackle the ball, so he had to stick it up. However, Navas, who was extremely fast, did not give Zhou Dun a chance to stick it up.

"Depend on!"

Wang Dalei failed to touch the ball in both goals, and this time he was pierced. As a goalkeeper, this feeling is very shameful.

Zhou Dun went over to pat Wang Dalei, "This time it's my responsibility,"

"No, Zhou Dun, no one is responsible for this ball. Your kick is a penalty kick plus a red card package, and there is no chance for Mu Fei to get in."

It is happiness to be understood by his partner, Zhou Dun did not continue to say anything.

*****
A player like Keylor Navas is a genius on the court. He may rarely score goals in his career, but once he scores a goal, he is comparable to Messi and Ronaldo. This is why Bosque took him to South Africa.

The score of 0 to 2 came into Li Guo's eyes, and Li Guo shook his head helplessly, but this is basically the real gap between the Chinese team and the Spanish team.

At the youth level, the gap between Chinese players and world-class players may not be that big (we were the two World Youth Championships in 2001 and 2005), but at the adult level, because Chinese players lack experience in the top leagues, the gap will be huge.

Li Guo was not satisfied, and the Chinese players were not satisfied, but the fans in the stands seemed to be satisfied, and the Chinese fans in Spain still shouted loudly.

Because they know the power of Spanish football, the European Cup two years ago is still vivid in their minds, Barcelona just won the Champions League last year, and now is the strongest time in Spanish football history.

It is enough to prove that the Chinese team is not bad now that the Chinese team is not at the mercy of others in Madrid.

Li Guo first made a downward gesture, asking everyone to hold their breath, and then made a long pass gesture. The field in front of him was like Li Guo’s marching sand table, and Li Guo was the commander, and his baton was pointed at a person—Ji Ke.

*****
Master Shui suffered a loss once, knowing that the little man of the Chinese team was extremely fast. After that, Ramos stopped chasing Qu Bo, but fought and retreated, getting stuck in the inside position.

Qu Bo is a big kid. Facing the best right back in the world, Qu Bo still dribbles, speeds up and overtakes unreasonably.

Although the success rate is not high, Li Guo likes Qu Bo's energy very much. In him, Li Guo seems to see Ribery in 2006.

In the 2006 World Cup, the world was shocked when an ugly little French man ran like he was flying.

Qu Bo was still "working hard", Li Guo shouted: "Qu Bo don't do it alone, take a look at Zheng Zhi."

Ramos heard a chattering sound, and without knowing why, Qu Bo passed the ball to Zheng Zhi, and then ran forward by himself.

"Two over one," Ramos understood without needing to understand Chinese.

As soon as he turned around, Qu Bo was already 10 meters ahead. Ramos was very smart and quickly shouted at Puyol.

Puyol didn't fill in for Ramos because he didn't think it was necessary. The No. 17 of the Chinese team is fast, but it seems that he has no other skills.

This is like Cristiano Ronaldo who just arrived at Manchester United, one-stop on the wing, and an anti-aircraft gun in the final pass.

Ji Ke in the middle pointed to the front of himself, meaning that the ball should be in front of me, not on my head.

Qu Bo made a pass, the ball found the front point, and Ji Ke was defending against him. Ji Ke jumped up and overwhelmed Puyol to head the ball towards the goal.

It was too close, and Casey just moved his footsteps symbolically. Seeing the ball fly into the near corner, the ball went in.

But the Spanish players immediately found the referee to complain, and Puyol was emotional and kept pushing people.

"That guy pushed me,"

Probably because it was a friendly match, the referee smiled like a flower, but he didn’t say anything. Also because it was a friendly match, the big screen played back it in slow motion.

But in any case, the Chinese team pulled one back.

The goal was a bit of a fluke, but it proved that Li Guo's Qubo Jiajico's tactics were feasible. After that, the game was a little flat. The hearts of the players on both sides flew to South Africa. After all, Spain and China are the same. There are 7 people on the bench who are going to leave.

Those who can play today are basically safe, and those who don’t play may go home at any time. When the game ended, the score was fixed at 2-1. The Chinese team lost the last warm-up match before the World Cup. Li Guo was satisfied with the result.

After the game, Bosque and Li Guo shook hands and chatted. The two were talking about something, but it should be a scene. The players on the field were exchanging jerseys. The players on both sides were very friendly, and there were no rough movements during the game.

Li Guo left the stadium, the next stop was South Africa, and Li Guo was about to make the cruelest choice, kicking off 7 players and announcing the 23-man roster.
