Football: From becoming a god-level striker

After a few days of training, Lippi, a world-class coach, saw Zhao Gang's ability.

Seeing is better than hearing.

Lippi watched a lot of videos about Zhao Gang's games, and even at this age when he was coaching in Longguo, he would stay up late to watch Zhao Gang's live broadcasts.

Those shocking scenes are far from being more direct and exciting than watching them in person.

On the court, he is on a different level from other players.

Whether it's passing, breakthrough, confrontation, or even one-on-one defense, Zhao Gang has shown a level that far exceeds these domestic players.

In the first two training sessions, Zhao Gang was extremely uncomfortable on the court, because the teammate he cooperated with was no longer De Bruyne, Sterling Aguero, but Wu Xi, a teammate like Zhang Xizhe, his pass often There will be mistakes, it is difficult for teammates to catch the ball, and it often happens that you shake your head and raise your hands on your hips.

After a few training sessions, Zhao Gang changed the way he passed the ball and directly put it under the feet of his teammates, which greatly increased the success rate.

His ability to adapt is also very strong. Since he can't change the habits of his teammates in a short time, he should change himself first and take his time later.

After all, soon, they will face Qatar's challenge at home.

After a few training sessions, the national team arranged a friendly match, but only played two games with the Longchao team, and did not invite other national teams to come.

After the game and training, Lippi finally determined the roster and the starting players in his heart.

In the future, the defense general Fu Huan, who contributed to the famous scene of Long Chao and would become the laughing stock of the whole country, did not enter the big list.

Lippi probably realized that something was wrong with this kid at this time.

"Everyone gather!!" assistant coach Li Tie roared, showing very good leadership skills, the players filed in, and walked into the conference room from Li Tie's side.

When Zhao Gang passed by Li Tie, Li Tie smiled on his very serious face and nodded to Zhao Gang.

He also knew that Lippi valued Zhao Gang the most.

Although Li Tie was also used under Lippi, and his status was no worse than that of Zhao Gang, Li Tie did not dare to underestimate Zhao Gang.

Now a lot of media publicity, the crazy enthusiasm of the fans, and even the influence of Nike, the sponsor of the national team, have made Zhao Gang the hottest existence in Dragon Country.

Let alone Li Tie, those office workers who are good at fighting should be more careful. Once there is an unnecessary conflict with Zhao Gang, fans and the media all over the country will be watching, and no one can bear this pressure.

Lippi wants to talk about how to face the Qatar team.

In the history of the battle between the two teams, the Dragon Kingdom actually still had the upper hand, but the few games they lost were all life-and-death duels.

The most famous of course is the "Black 3 Minutes" of the last century.

No. In the final of the 14th World Cup Asian Qualifiers, the last opponent of Longguo was Qatar.

At that time, Qatar had no hope of qualifying and had no desires and desires. The Longguo men's football team only needed to defeat Qatar to realize their dream of the World Cup in history.

As a result, after the Long Guo team scored a goal in the 78th minute to lead, Qatar scored two goals in the 86th and 89th minutes, completing a shocking reversal and creating a black 3 minutes.

Broken dreams, broken hearts.

Qatar has no desires and needs, and Qatar and the Dragon Kingdom are quite friendly diplomatically. It shouldn't be so desperate with the Dragon Kingdom, which puzzles many people.

In fact, there is a reason why Qatar is so desperate and vowed to stop the Dragon Kingdom team.

They are taking revenge.

The reason for the revenge can be attributed to the "faint move" of the Long Guo Football Association at that time.

In the 70s, Qatar and China had very friendly diplomatic exchanges, and the football associations of the two countries also started various cooperations. In the 80s, China's football reached the first-class level in Asia. Compared with now, it is simply a difference.

In order to enhance its competitiveness, the Qatar Football Association is very willing to spend money to compete with the Long Guo team.

Unfortunately, after a seven-year honeymoon period, the Long Guo Football Association did something unbelievable.

Qatar first offered a helping hand during the preparations for the Asian Games, providing board and lodging for the Dragon Country team to go to Doha for a warm-up match.

Enthusiasm, pride.

In the second year, Qatar football happily returned to Longguo, preparing for a warm-up match with the Longguo national team.

As a result, the comrades of the Football Association arranged for the Longyi team to have a warm-up match with the Qatar national team.

The Qatar national team, all the main players are visiting, and the Football Association comrades have arranged for the third-level team to play the game.

This is no longer a hot face and a cold ass, this is simply a pile of gold to buy a shit to eat.

The resentment of the Qatar national team, coupled with the media's publicity, made the Qatari football players united and determined to work hard, eager to complete a revenge!

Unexpectedly, this opportunity came very quickly. Two years later, Long Guo football reached the most critical moment for qualifying in Asia. The Qataris showed a stronger fighting spirit than all previous games. It was like playing the World Cup. All members mustered their strength , Shengsheng blocked Longguo from the World Cup circle.

This is not over yet. Eight years later, the strong Dragon Kingdom team won consecutive victories against Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, and once again launched an impact on the World Cup. If the Dragon Kingdom team can win at home, the qualifying situation is very good, and it is likely to rush out of Asia in one go.

As a result, in Zhao Gang's hometown, Lianhai Stadium, Qatar was behind and scored two goals within 5 minutes of the second half, reversing the victory over the Longguo team!

The Longguo team made a serious mistake in the defense in this field, which also created a very famous football meme "replacing Li Tie".

From the beginning of the honeymoon period, the Dragon Kingdom team and the Qatar team became enemies because of some weird behaviors of the Football Association.

If these two defeats are still acceptable, then the black call in 2008 really made the Dragon Kingdom fans unacceptable and even aggrieved.

At that time, Longguo football once again hit the World Cup.

In the top 20 match, after an away draw with Qatar, the Longguo team who returned home encountered a black call, a blatant black call.

At that time, a Qatari was elected as the chairman of the AFC. With this convenience, the Qatari team received the same treatment as a home court in Longguo, and finally defeated Longguo with an unnecessary penalty.

The Dragon Country team was eliminated in the group stage and did not advance to the top ten!

Even if the Dragon Kingdom entered the top ten at that time, there was a high probability that they would not be able to break out of Asia, but this kind of black whistle under the eyes of everyone really made people feel aggrieved and angry.

So in the face of Qatari football, Zhao Gang, who at least understands these, will do his best without any mobilization at all.

In the beginning, the Dragon National Football Association did not do any personnel work, but there were also some reasons. The main players of the national team had to prepare for the Olympics, and there was no way to draw them out to participate in the warm-up match.

The black whistle in 08 should not be forgiven anyway.

This kind of behavior of using the power of the AFC to put pressure on referees and affect football is something that any normal footballer would despise!

……

All the players entered the meeting room and sat upright.

"The Qatar team, I don't need to say too much, even I have heard some grievances about the Long Guo team and the Qatar team.

As an Italian, I empathize with what happened to you.

So facing this team, I believe that I don’t need too many words of encouragement. When you are on the field, if you still have some shame, you will use [-]% of your fighting spirit to play, fight, and fight. Rob! "

"What I want to talk about today is the characteristics of this Qatar team. They play very united. Because they are rich, they plan to have many foreign players. Their personal abilities are also considered top-notch in Asia.

When they face opponents of the same level, they like to control the ball and control the rhythm.

So when you are on the field, the most important thing is not to control the ball, but to press, keep putting pressure on them, make it difficult for them to play the ball, and make them feel uncomfortable enough to play!

The strikers need to keep running and keep an eye on their passing lanes!

Once you grab the ball, you must find Zhao at the first time. If you can't find him, he will let you pass the ball to him by running!

I believe he can do it, and you should too!

Another characteristic of the Qatar team is the counterattack in the frontcourt. They are very persistent in this, so the midfielders must always support the back line. Lose the ball easily! "

Lippi kept explaining.

"Our offensive ability has not been enough, but with Zhao joining, the striker will definitely get very strong support. According to past experience, the Qatar team will not hide and defend, they will look for opportunities to attack, and this is our opportunity. .”

Lippi even studied all the players in Qatar, pointing out their weaknesses and strengths one by one, telling the players of the Dragon Country how to defend and how to attack, and almost fed all the food to the players of the Dragon Country.

Zhao Gang nodded straightly. Although he has excellent football skills, his football thinking is far behind that of a coach like Lippi Guardiola.

So on the court, although his position is vague, he will definitely try his best to meet the requirements of the head coach.

The tactics of these head coaches are definitely more professional than him.

Professionals should do professional things.

When the Dragon Country team was studying the Qatar team, the Qatar football team was also studying the Dragon Country team.

The biggest headache for them now is Zhao Gang.

Qatar football, in recent years, began to try to control the ball, piled up a large number of players in the midfield, and mainly played three backs.

This kind of tactics can enable them to achieve very good results in Asia. After all, in terms of personal strength, Qatari players still have an advantage.

However, once facing a super strong midfield attacker, the three-back system will fall apart.

A behind the ball, can make them want to cry without tears.

And this is exactly one of Zhao Gang's specialties.

Real Madrid played three backs, and was shot through by Zhao Gang, which is still vivid.

The head coach of Qatar does not believe that his back three can be compared with Ramos and Marcelo Carvajal.

But this tactic has matured, and if these players don't adapt to it, wouldn't it be worse?

"Zhao, this boy from the Dragon Kingdom..." Qatar's head coach shook his head. Damn, Zidane, Mourinho, and Wenger couldn't completely restrain him. How could I find a way?

However, the Longguo team is not Manchester City, not even comparable to the former Norwich.

No matter how strong a person is, without the support of his teammates, it is impossible to win the game.

He can't keep dribbling the ball from his penalty area to the opponent's penalty area all by himself in a game, can he?

The head coach of Qatar thought about it again, it's bad, this guy really did this kind of thing, more than once!

His grandma, Qatar is so rich, why didn't he plan it?

If that guy is in Qatar now, Lippi should be the one who has a headache.

Everyone knows his characteristics, but they cannot be restricted.

Fast, strong breakthrough, good pass, fierce shot.

Single defense is impossible.

We can only use the strategy of zone defense to cut off the connection between him and his teammates.

Minimize his threat.

However, zone defense requires players to run a lot, and their physical fitness may not be able to withstand it.

Once it's the last 10 minutes, the players are exhausted, this guy explodes one seed, cracks into two, isn't it all over? ?

"I will not change the formation! We will not change our style of play just because of one person! No matter how strong he is, he is only a human being, not a god!

Show your level and control the ball at your feet!Once they get the ball, go for it, we're a team, move together, beat 'em! ! "Qatar's head coach is full of energy, how can he be frightened by a child?

fuck him!

He can break through and shoot alone, and he can do better than eleven of us?

The Asian qualifiers did not attract much attention worldwide, because there were strong European and South American teams playing at the same time, and the Asian teams were still a little behind.

But in Longguo, it has long been boiling.

While scolding the Longguo team, the fans of Longguo will show their enthusiastic support during the game.

Moreover, this time, there is Zhao Gang, who is most concerned about by Longguo fans, representing the national team for the first time!

Countless fans have already watched Zhao Gang's game, and their biggest expectation is that Zhao Gang can represent the Dragon Kingdom national team in the game!

To win glory for the country, these four words will always exist in the blood of Longguo people.

National feelings are definitely not something that people in Europe and America can understand.

Before the game started, a large number of fans had already appeared in Mingkun City. People from afar booked hotels and waited with excitement. Many people could no longer book hotels around the stadium and could only choose places farther away, or even It takes hours to drive to the stadium.

And this game also attracted the attention of another country, England.
