Chapter 199 238 Quarterfinals of the Chilean World Junior Championships

Won 17-2 against Argentina's U0s and successfully sold Lucas to River Plate.

The main purpose is not the transfer fee of 150 million euros. The key is that Cai Rongyu's growth made Lin Wenlei realize that even if he can't train the players, changing the environment and style may change the scenery.

Back at the hotel Lin Wenlei specially called Lucas to tell him the news.This was completely unexpected to Lucas, and after a moment of stupefaction, he became pleasantly surprised. Lin Wenlei had mentioned this to him before, but Lucas never expected it to happen.

The specific negotiations with River Plate later will be discussed by Neumann's agency and Lucas's family, and their attention will be on the subsequent game against River Plate U20.

There is a lot of difference in physique at the same age, let alone a difference of three years.The River Plate U20 also paid special attention and arranged for their star Manuel Mamana to play.

Mamana's position is a defender. Although he is just 20 years old, he has already played in the Argentine national team. Therefore, from the very beginning of this game, Hua Guoguo's striker encountered great difficulties.

In the youth competition, a difference of one or two years means a huge gap in physical fitness and stature, running ability and confrontation strength are all at a disadvantage. are very difficult.

At this time, the gap between the players trained in the first team in Europe can be seen. The core players such as Sun Ge, Su Wu, Zhou Bo, Fan Sheng and Zhou Zhaolin increased their possession of the ball and maintained the operation of the team.

But it's just barely coping. Even if they play in the first team, they are fighting against adult players, but that is based on the premise that the team can fight and they are assisted and protected.When the whole team is at a disadvantage in this game and they need to stand up and take the lead in confrontation, the pressure is doubled.

That is to say, the defenders can guarantee more physical confrontation in the half, but in the second half of the second half, the exhausted defender also collapsed physically, and was kicked 20:1 by the River Plate U5.

However, the goal in the first half showed Hua Guo Guo Shao's offensive ability to the fullest.After noticing that the physical contact was at a disadvantage in all respects and the coordinated running positions were also limited, Hua Guoguo quickly passed the ball between Zhou Bo and Su Wu to advance the ball to the frontcourt, and then the offensive players got rid of the physical contact in a short time , passed from Zhou Bo to Wang Jie on the left.Wang Jie pushed directly to Zhao Yao who pulled out of the penalty area.

Zhao Yao quickly brought the ball to the side of the penalty area, and then pushed the ball to Su Wu who responded before the defenders surrounded him. Su Wu directly knocked the ball to Sun Ge, who was at the top, and he then pushed back to the outside of the penalty area Fan Sheng, scored by Fan Sheng.

The next game against Boca Juniors U20 was even more embarrassing. Boca had more physical collisions. In addition, Sun Ge, Su Wu, Zhou Bo and Gui Yang did not play this time. Only Cai Rongyu was able to hold the ball stably. After passing the ball, Hua Guo Guo Shao had only occasional counterattacks after being restricted.

After the two big defeats, Hua Guoguo left Argentina and lived in Chile. The players on the plane were listless and lost the momentum of being the number one in the world.

"What's the matter? Are you tired? Do you know that being able to play in the first team is not due to yourself alone? Do you understand the relationship between the whole team and the individual?"

He was already depressed, but after being complained by Lin Wenlei, he didn't hold back anymore, and started attacking him with half-truths and half-fake arrangements for this inhuman warm-up match.

"I know you don't like the feeling of losing, but I know you don't like the feeling of losing in a big game. Believe me, teams like Nigeria and Mali are not much worse than River Plate and Boca U20. If you continue to be careless, you will live less It was ugly to lose in the game.”

After arriving in Viña del Mar, the relatives of the players also arrived here and lived in the hotel next to the training camp. They could be with their families every day during non-closed training time, which greatly relieved the tension of the players.

The training camp located on the coast of Davinia del Mar is also a rented resort. Many training equipment and medical equipment have been transported here early and have been adjusted.

After arriving at the training camp, I first carried out recovery training and physical reserve training. Before the start of the group stage, I only played a warm-up match with a local U18 team. I won this game very easily.

Then on October 10, the Chilean World Junior Championships started its first group match, Huaguo U20 vs. Russia U17.

This Russian U17 team played against each other in Mallorca when the team was still called the Youth Sports Team at the end of 13, and many players still remember it.

However, after more than a year, the two teams have not changed much. The Russian team is still a team composed of center Zamaletdinov and left midfielder No. 10 Alexei. The team's style of play is defensive counterattack.

Huaguo U17's favorite shrinking opponent, launched a siege unceremoniously.

In this Huaguo U17 game, forwards Sun Ge and Chen Pu, midfielders Su Wu, Wang Jie, Fan Sheng, Zhou Bo, Meng Xinyan, defenders Xie He, Xia Jixuan and Guiyang, and goalkeeper Lu Yiming.

Except for Zhou Zhaolin who has a cold, Huaguo U17 is basically the main player in the game. Chen Pu is used as a striker instead of Zhao Yao because Russia is a defensive team and will not give Huaguo less chances to counterattack.And Meng Xinyan's replacement of Zheng Zhi is to use his chasing and running ability. When Russia counterattacks, he must return to defense as soon as possible, interfere with the counterattackers who entangle them, and buy time for the defense.

The Russian U17, who was suppressed by the Huaguo U17, found that they did not have many chances to fight back.The main point of play in the backcourt, central defender Petro is stared at by Chen Pu. Even if the ball occasionally falls to the frontcourt, Fan Sheng, who is facing Alexei, has a very strong defensive ability. First of all, he will limit him in the first place. Out of the ball, Alexei was forced to break through with the ball, and then Gui Yang, who was defended by the defense after a while, cooperated with Fan Sheng to break the ball.

As for high center Zamaletdinov, Sheikh followed him every step of the way from the very beginning, not to mention breaking through, and he didn't even have many chances to grab the ball.

In the Russian U17 penalty area, Su Wu sorted out the offense very delicately, and his dazzling passes were not restricted by the large number of Russian defenders.

In the 12th minute, Meng Xinyan, who stole the ball from the backcourt, took the ball to the midfield for Huaguo U17, and then passed the ball to Wang Jie.Sun Ge just flicked a diagonal line, the ball slipped past the defender's feet and pushed it to Chen Pu in the small penalty area.

Chen Pu carried defender Liao Kolov and shot directly, and finally knocked on Russia's goal after kicking the post twice in a row.

Then in the 18 minutes of the second half, using the Russian U17 to rush to attack, Hua Guoguo broke through from the side of Wang Jie, suddenly changed the line in his own half to dodge the space, passed the ball diagonally from a long distance, and drew a big arc Pushed behind the Russian U17 defense.

At the beginning, Sun Ge was still near the center line, three or four meters away from Liaokolov, but before Wang Jie passed the ball, he suddenly started to accelerate. After passing the ball, he almost crossed the defense line of Russia U17 at the same time, successfully anti-offside.

Sun Ge, who won a single shot, did not waste the opportunity, but knocked down the goalkeeper Boris and easily pushed into the empty goal.

2：0举得首胜的华国U17并没太引人注目，第一轮最大的冷门是韩国U17居然1：0击败了巴西U17，吸引走了绝大部份目光。

The second game was against South Africa U10 on October 22. This African team is very strong and physically strong, but for Huaguo U17, which has just been abused by River Plate and Boca U20, their strength is not enough. to form an overwhelming advantage.Huaguo U17 used their pass control and running positions to effectively play their own advantages, avoiding physical contact during offense.

In the 5th minute of the game, Zhao Yao, who made his debut for the first time, used Zhou Bo's long pass from the backcourt to tear open the opponent's defense, and then made a diagonal pass to Sun Ge in the penalty area.

Sun Ge, who had been rushing forward, noticed Zhao Yao's gesture and took two steps back after he passed the ball.Then he volleyed directly in the middle of the small penalty area and scored the first score. Huaguo U17 took a 1-0 lead.

Then Huaguo U17 began to recover, Meng Xinyan withdrew to the central defender position, and formed a defensive line with Xie He, Xia Jixuan, and Guiyang. Fan Sheng, Zhou Bo, and Wang Jie formed a three-back midfielder. Three people in the afternoon.

The South African U17 didn't realize that Wang Jie's defensive midfielder was completely standing, and he had no real defensive skills at all.

Using the South African U17 team to attack, in 39 minutes, Wang Jie made a quick breakthrough, and then handed it over to Su Wu.Su Wu sent a through pass, and Sun Ge, who was running diagonally, turned the ball around and hit the goal directly from 20 meters away.

The ball was very powerful. South African goalkeeper Dibauna poked the ball with his finger, but failed to change the football line and flew into the goal, 2:0.

In the second half, Huaguo U17 replaced Wang Jie with Zheng Zhi and played a real 3 midfielder, 4312.

In the 27th minute of the second half, Zhou Duo came on the field and received Zheng Zhizhi. Zhou Duo called the defender Nabatani who rushed over. Because he was on the right side of the court and was close to the bottom line, the only small angle was blocked by the goalkeeper. The ball was picked in front of the goal, and Sun Ge headed it lightly, completing his hat-trick.

On the 10th, on the 25th, the last match against Costa Rica in the group match, Huaguo U17, who had already guaranteed to qualify, sent a substitute lineup to play.

Forward Sono.Midfielder Cai Rongyu, Lucas on the left, Sun Letian on the right, midfielder Zheng Zhi and Xia Jixuan.Defenders Gan Rong, Zhou Zhaolin, Su Xin, Guiyang.Goalkeeper Chu Hongtu.

The substitute lineup played slowly because of the ball-handling habits of Cai Rongyu and Lucas, but there will be extremely penetrating passes when the offense and defense transition, because Sono, who was a little depressed after not appearing in a few games, was fed this time Enough cakes, scored twice in the first half alone.

In the second half, Zhou Duo, who replaced Sun Letian, counterattacked fast enough, and he was very compatible with Cai Rongyu's pass and run.For the last goal, Cai Rongyu dribbled the ball laterally outside the penalty area of ​​Costa Rica, attracting two midfielders and a defender to siege. Cai Rongyu still passed the ball out of the crowd.

Zhou Duo, who responded quickly, rushed directly into the penalty area after receiving the ball. Seeing him coming in, Sono immediately ran to the open space on the left and took the left back away.Facing the only central defender and goalkeeper in the middle, Zhou Duo actually stopped, and then suddenly started to charge forward, but knocked the ball to Cai Rongyu with his heel.

The defenders surrounding Cai Rongyu thought that Zhou Duo was going to break through, so they went to defend Zhou Duo and missed Cai Rongyu. Cai Rongyu calmly lobbed a shot from the dead corner of the left corner and scored.

The substitutes did not relax because of the 3:0. In the 31st minute, behind the defense line with Cai Rongyu's long pass in the backcourt, Zhou Duo got the ball and formed a big single.

Zhou Duo, who quickly dribbled the ball to the penalty area, faced the goalkeeper. After a series of fake moves made him unstable, he picked the ball and scored, 4:0.

It was not until stoppage time that Costa Rica used a free kick to recover a point.

They won all 3 games and scored 9 goals and conceded 1 goal, which made Huaguo domestic fans overjoyed. Many fans rushed to the distant Chile to cheer for the team on the spot.

The eighth-final match was against Ecuador U17, and the game was still in Davinia del Mar. The outstanding performance of Huaguo U17 also attracted many local fans, plus Huaguo fans from all over China and South America. The stands are cheering for Huaguo U17.

Nearly Wan Huaguo fans brought unexpected income to the local area. The whole Chile was overjoyed and left a deep impression on South American countries, so that the Brazilian media mentioned in the report: 'What did we miss in the World Cup'.

Economic factors will play a role in any international game, and this is also the case. Less than 5 minutes after the start of the game, the referee gave Hua Guo U17 a free kick from 8 or 17 meters on the left side of the penalty area.

This free kick was a bit reluctant according to the referee's scale since the beginning of the game, which made the Ecuadorian team members very angry, and the Huaguo players' early standing was not involved.

After the referee sent out two yellow cards in a row to suppress the opponent's protest, Su Wu and Sun Ge stood in front of the ball. They didn't have any psychological pressure at all. It had nothing to do with them what the referee decided. What.On the contrary, they are very serious, because they know that once the goal is scored, it will detonate the opponent's emotions, and a team that loses control of emotions is more conducive to them entering the quarter-finals.

Sun Ge's free kick was a big hit to the ground. The ball flew from the foot of the Ecuadorian wall and the goalkeeper couldn't make a save. Huaguo U17 took the lead.

The emotional Ecuador team immediately launched a counterattack, but the excitement caused many movements to be deformed, and Huaguo U17's counterattack was like a fish in water.

In the 22nd minute, the Ecuadorian team, which had been busy attacking and returning to defense quickly, showed insufficient physical fitness and began to reduce the rhythm.

As for the offense at this time, any Huaguo U17 player knows one word - fast!
In the backcourt, Guiyang no longer dribbled the ball, but handed it to Fan Sheng, who passed it to Zhao Yao. Zhao Yao broke through and hit the goal forcibly.

This attack did not go through Zhou Bo and Su Wu's transfer, which made the Ecuadorian team, which focused on defending them, caught off guard and regretted.

Leading 2:0 in the first half, and looking at the tactics and techniques displayed by the audience, many people think that this 8/1 game basically has no suspense.

This is indeed the case. In the second half, Cai Rongyu played and kicked the ball.And Zhou Duo replaced Wang Jie, and the two fast horses around Sun Ge took turns charging, so that Ecuador did not dare to press in the backcourt, and the attack was not powerful.

In the 26th minute of the second half, Sun Ge played the ball for Zhou Duo in a counterattack. Zhou Duo passed a defender in the penalty area, and then lobbed and scored, completely killing the suspense of the game.
