Godfather of national football

Chapter 466 Fighting the United Arab Emirates ([-])

There was dead silence in the UAE dressing room, with so much money spent and so many European coaches brought in.

Originally, the UAE people thought that they could compete with the top Asian teams, but they woke up the UAE in 45 minutes of the first half.

Mahdi Ali clapped his hands: "Children? Didn't I tell you before the game that any situation is reasonable?"

But everyone knows that it's just pretending to be X and being modest, but everyone's true thoughts are not like this.

"Coach, we lost," Omar said bitterly.

"Shut up, you are getting more and more unsightly, don't think that you can talk to me like this just because you are the darling of the country."

Omar also woke up, with a displeased face, and sat down with his head bowed.

Mahdi Ali placed his left palm on top of his right palm and then overlapped again, as if climbing a staircase.

"There are no shortcuts in football. Yes, we may be a little behind the Chinese team, but so what? We won the Gulf Cup last year, we have been improving, we will reach the top of Asia one day, and we will go to the World Cup."

"If the juniors of U19 and U14 see your useless appearance, what do you think they will think?"

Having said that, everyone raises their heads, and everyone understands their responsibilities. That is one page of UAE football, and there are many pages in the future of UAE football. What we need to do is to pass on the good things.

*****
Back in the second half, the Chinese team replaced three players in a row, which confuses Australia even more, making the scouts at the scene unable to see anything clearly.

Pu Shuang replaced Qu Bo, Shen Rui replaced Liao Lisheng, and Chen Deng replaced Hao Junmin.

"MD, I didn't see anything, and the Chinese team withdrew," said the assistant beside Postkoglu.

"Hehe, I'm right, Li Guo is a thief, this semi-final is over."

The UAE still made some resistance in the second half, but the effect was not great. The defense of the Chinese team was very stable. Postkoglu frowned and said, "I bet you that Zhou Dun will play as a midfielder in the final."

"Why?" the assistant asked suspiciously.

"A kind of intuition, don't you think that without No. 8, the Chinese team's midfield is weak?"

"There is a little bit, but the Chinese team has a lot of midfielders."

Postkoglu shook his head, "No, people like Li Guo are actually very stable. I think the only person he can trust in the final is Zhou Dun."

I have to say that in this regard, Postkoglu and Li Guo thought of a team. Li Guo used Hao Junmin and Chen Deng in this game, but those were not Li Guo's choice. In fact, Zhou Dun was the one, because a good midfielder needs a big picture and strong defense.

In the current Chinese team, apart from Zhou Dun, Li Guo really has no one to believe in. This is a bit like when Mourinho was in Real Madrid, he would usually put Pepe on the central defender, but in a key game like the national derby, Magic Bird will still put Pepe on the midfielder to form the first line of defense.

In the 65th minute of the second half, Park Shuang scored a goal, and the Chinese team led 3-1, and the game completely lost its suspense.

In the last 85 minutes, Lin Zhijian scored another goal, and the Chinese team locked the final score at 4-1.

The game was over, Li Guo didn't need to be arrogant anymore, he walked towards Mahdi Ali, "Your No. 10 is very good, train well, maybe he will become a star."

"Li Guo, you won, congratulations."

"Hehe, we shouldn't be enemies, right? I only said those words to the media."

Mahdi Ali chuckled and said nothing.

After thanking the fans, Li Guo returned to the player tunnel, when suddenly someone stopped Li Guo, a very familiar voice.

"Ange, why are you sneaking around?"

Postkoglu chuckled, "This is a public place, why did I sneak around?"

"You can't follow others in public places, are you a stalker?"

Postkoglu was too lazy to talk nonsense with Li Guo, so as not to be taken into the ditch by the other party, Li Guo was very talkative.

"Hehe, you are very lucky. I thought the Koreans or the Japanese would be able to destroy you, but unfortunately, they didn't."

"Hehe, Ange, I really hope that the Iranians don't eliminate you tomorrow, otherwise I will regret it for the rest of my life. If I don't beat Australia, this Asian Cup will not be perfect."

"Li Guo, your mouth is still very bad. No wonder you were on a talk show in Brazil. Your eloquence should not be condescending in the football circle."

I am a talent with all-round development, you just see one side of me, learn slowly, I am deeper than a search engine.

"Bah, you're as annoying as a gangster on the streets of Melbourne."

"By the way, did you learn anything from the great game that just ended?"

"Of course, but I won't tell you."

Li Guo chuckled, "By the way, I will watch the game between you and Iran tomorrow. Every time Australia concedes a goal, I will give a standing ovation."

"Hehe, you don't have to touch me, I don't believe in evil."

"Let's wait and see."

Postkoglu was about to leave when Li Guo suddenly called out, "Ange, your shoelace is loose."

Subconsciously, Postkoglu bent down to look down, but then realized that he was wearing leather shoes without laces.

Li Guo laughed: "Ange, did you know that in China, the losers will bow to the victors, just like you did just now."

"childish!"

"Really? You don't even know that leather shoes don't have laces. Who is naive?"

Postkoglu was angry, and Li Guo was messing around. This is the instinct of life. Generally, when someone reminds you, you have to look down. How would you know you met such a boring person.

"Okay, let's make a bet, if I win the final, then I'll slap your leather shoes on your face, okay?"

"Hehe, but you haven't made it to the final yet."

"Assumption."

"Ange, how old are you? Only junior high school students play such naive bets. Adults gamble."

"Okay, money is fine."

"Sorry, gambling is illegal in China."

Postkoglu gritted his teeth, Li Guo went around to play with him, and he really fell into the pit.

"Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow, as long as you dare to come, I will prepare the VIP seat for you."

"OK."

Postkoglu disappeared at the end of the aisle, and Li Guo suddenly felt a little worried. He was afraid that Australia would really be eliminated, and the final would be no fun.

Hehe, the world has changed too much, I hope the opponent in the final will not change.
