Me, Captain of China

At the press conference before the third match of the group stage in Kuwait, the reporters asked Horton what they thought of Hao Haixi and Gao Feng.

Horton did not evade this problem.

He said: "I think Huang Jianxiang said too much. No one wants to lose the game. Isn't it? We have to win with the least cost. After the big score lead, there really is no need to continue to chase and fight.

"When we go to the knockout, we have to be careful."

"As for the domestic and foreign attitudes he said? I didn't see it. I don't know how he saw it. Every player wants to win, and he knows how to protect himself and protect victory."

"I don't want to affect the unity of the team because of some unrealistic comments. We are very good now, the goal of the team is to reach the final and win the championship."

Horton thought of the unity of the team. He was worried that some comments would affect the dressing room.

Later, the reporter asked Zheng Zhi again.

"Zheng Zhi, what do you think?"

Zheng Zhi has been concerned about these for a long time. He said: "It is acceptable to criticize. If we do not perform well, there is no problem. But if anyone does not work hard and does not perform well, please name it ..."

"Anyway, I did n’t see anyone who did n’t work hard. Now the competitive atmosphere in the team is particularly strong. If anyone does not perform well, they will lose their starting position, so everyone is playing hard, everyone is united, The contribution of the country, the reason why the play is more relaxed, that is because of the tactical needs of the coach, he said that we should pay attention to protect ourselves. So it is wrong to interpret us blindly for no reason. "

"Of course, I think Huang Jianxiang is not intentional. He also worried about us and was anxious for us. The starting point is correct. This is a misunderstanding."

Zheng Zhi and Huang Jianxiang have a friendship, and they still speak very decently.

Then he talked about Gao Feng again.

"As for what Brother Feng said, there is no problem. He is a loyal person. He is very good. He has a good relationship with many big men in the team. Speaking straight, naturally it sounds a bit uncomfortable."

"Actually, whether it is Huang Jianxiang or Gao Feng, I want to be good for the national football. The starting point is right, of course. Of course, we cannot always be on the cusp of the storm, because we are watching the Chinese fans every day. Play football, so as players, we really need to be ourselves. "

...

...

In this third game, Zheng Zhi still failed to become the starting player. After winning the first two games, the Chinese team has already won the first place in the group. Even if the last game is lost, the South Korean team wo n’t even win two games, because the record between the two teams is that the Chinese team won, so the Chinese team must be Group first.

Therefore, putting Zheng Zhi on the bench is a shame, at least for Inter Milan. Inter Milan lost a lot of time in Verona because of the lack of Zheng Zhi. The result of 2: 1 is quite dangerous. At that time, the media thought that Zheng Zhi was not in. Pirlo ’s backward position was a failure. The team lacked enough creativity. If the French goalkeeper Frey played well, Inter Milan might not get it. This victory.

Now, by coincidence, the Chinese team VS Kuwait match happened at the same time as the Cagliari VS Inter Milan Italian Cup.

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports Italy, guest Bergomi received the news that Zheng Zhi had once again become a substitute and exploded on the spot.

"Asshole,"

"It's a bastard. If the British don't want Zheng Zhi to start in the group stage, why should he be so eager to call him back to the national team? It is entirely possible to call Zheng Zhi back after finishing the group stage. On the bench, Inter Milan is suffering from a lack of core. It is a very stupid wrong decision! "

Because of the pain of playing Verona last week, even in the second round of the Italian Cup, even when playing Cagliari of the second level, Mourinho did not dare to care, the lineup is still mainly based on the main force, Only the striker partner was replaced by Recoba and Vieri.

This is indeed the opposite of the Chinese team lineup sent by Horton. The Chinese team lineup is weaker than the second round. The goalkeeper is still the outstanding Jiang Jun in the first two games. The four defenders are Wu Chengying, Zhang Enhua, from left to right. Xu Yunlong and Chen Gang. From left to right, the four players in the midfield are Shen Si, Ma Mingyu, Qi Hong, Zhao Junzhe, and Xie Hui and Qu Shengqing are on the front line.

With the exception of Ma Mingyu and Qi Hong, who are still in the dark, everyone else is a player who is standing in the country.

The Kuwaiti lineup consists of goalkeeper Majidi, Abdullah, Abdul Rahman, Shamali and Axel on the back line. The four midfielders are Mutairi, Harabiye and Azerbaijan. Zemi and Ottoman, Houwadi and Abdulazi remain on the striker line.

Facing the opponent's intensive defense, the Chinese team didn't seem to have a lot of ways to attack the position. The entire first half had only one shot and only 40 minutes. The Chinese team Qu Shengqing quickly started after receiving the ball in the penalty area. The opposing defender made a Pushing the action, Qu Shengqing fell into the opponent's penalty area, but the head referee from Malaysia signaled the game to continue. After that, both sides failed to create a scoring opportunity and ended the first half of the game with 0: 0.

In the second half, in order to increase the vitality of the field and further train the team, the Chinese team replaced Shao Jiayi with the left forward Shen Si and Li Xiaopeng with the right forward Zhao Junzhe. The situation is the same as in the first half.

Offensive constipation. There is little chance of shooting.

In the end, both sides hit 0: 0 ...

Although it was only a draw, the Chinese team won two games and one tie in three games and advanced to the quarter-finals with the first place in the group. The opponents of the Chinese team ’s quarter-finals will be the third-highest points in Group A and Group C. It is no surprise that the next opponent of the Chinese team will be generated from the three teams of Thailand, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, of which two The probability of the team in Chiasia is greater.

The game of the Chinese team has just ended, and the game of Inter Milan quickly came to the end, but Inter Milan and Cagliari played 1: 2, the total score of two rounds was 3: 3, the home and away goal difference is 1 goal, in this case, they are about to enter a penalty shootout.

As a result, Inter Milan was in a tragedy. In the penalty shootout, they were eliminated. Dalma and Di Biagio missed penalty kicks one after another. The archer gave Cagliari the opportunity to advance to the second round.

1: 2.

Tragic scores, Inter Milan also ushered in the first defeat of the season.

This failure is naturally the Italian sports media most willing to see, everyone is looking forward to the failure of Inter Milan, and finally waited.

The Republican commentator Mauro (who had teammates with Zico, Platini and Maradona) commented:

I think it is still very objective. Losing is not a tragedy, but it is really unexpected. They lost to the second team Cagliari. This shows that Inter Milan is actually too dependent on the Chinese. In the two games without him, Inter Milan seemed to be unable to play again. Inter Milan encountered an unexplainable day. The Nerazzurri need a more formal kick: a 1-2 loss to Cagliari is a painful lesson and needs reflection. Mourinho's idea is very simple, that is to use Pirlo to make up for the position after Zheng Zhi left, and let Dalma replace Pirlo's original position. Pirlo played very hard, but he didn't have the ability like Zheng Zhi.

Evening Post commentator Sconcheti also said:

After the lack of Zheng Zhi, Mourinho should choose to change, instead of sticking to 4312, but should change to 442, or 352, or 433, either to make the team more balanced, or let the team It has become more aggressive. It is now obvious that without Zheng Zhi, Inter Milan will not attack, and the quality of the attack will drop by 3 times. The defensive end has actually been affected to a certain extent. The team's defensive system is a bit chaotic. All this seems to be back to last season, Lippi's Inter Milan is like this.

"The Turin Sports News" editor-in-chief Padovan said: In fact, when playing Verona on the road, Inter Milan did not perform well. The continuous away game finally exposed them to all the problems. The forwards are no longer magical, and when they can't use their personal abilities to solve goals, the Inter Milan tank stopped. In a short time, I think that without Zheng Zhi, they can get out of the predicament. What's scary is that Zheng Zhi has to stay in Lebanon for a long time. In the meantime, Inter Milan has two leagues and a championship ...

At the press conference after the game, Mourinho's emotions became a little agitated by the reporter's constant questions.

"I know you really want Inter Milan to lose the game, and today you did."

"Losing is not a bad thing. Only by losing will we be able to see where our own strength lies. If we keep winning, it will make us float."

"It's just that we lost the game that we shouldn't. We said goodbye to the Italian Cup."

The reporter asked: "José, do you miss Zheng Zhi?"

Mourinho shrugged and then asked back, "Are you missing your wife for a few months outside?"

Reporter: ... but I thought to myself, of course I don't want to be outside, I can steal it!

Another reporter asked again: "He was on the Chinese team tonight and he didn't play for another minute. What do you think?"

Mourinho ’s muscles on his face pumped and twitched, but there was still some humor. “Very well, this means that Horton is helping Inter Milan to maintain Zheng Zhi. Zheng Zhi ’s absence does not mean he will not be tired, Will be injured, and then give us a healthy and healthy Zheng Zhi. "

I can only think of it this way, can I still curse Holden like Bergomi?

He had already prepared to lose Zheng Zhi long ago, but he did not expect that Pirlo failed to play the role of Zheng Zhi. It is useless to miss Zheng Zhi now, only hope that Pirlo can get up as soon as possible.

...

...

The next day, the 12th Asian Cup group stage was over, and the quarterfinals were all produced. The specific game situation in the quarter-finals is: China VS Qatar.

Kuwait vs Iraq

South Korea vs Iran.

Japan vs Saudi Arabia

In the first half of China, compared with the second half, the opponents are much weaker. Japan, South Korea, Iran, and Saudi Arabia all ran to the second half. How good is this luck? After the four teams are knocked out, at least a few layers of skin have to be lost. The Chinese team is taking advantage of the fishermen.

Not enough for Qatar, but let Chinese fans grind their teeth. As soon as the match came out, even the Chinese players were extremely excited. This is the old "enemy". It must be reported in the quarterfinals.

In the current Chinese team, many old internationals participated in the two games against Qatar in the 1997 top ten. At that time, the Chinese team had a 1-1 draw away from home, losing at home 2: 3. Coincidentally, Bosnia and Herzegovina coach Haji, who led Qatar's repeated successes, returned to the coaching position before leaving the Qatar team for some time and met the Chinese team again.

Many internationals are discussing Qatar while eating.

Zhang Enhua commented: "The strength of the Qatar team has declined compared to the top ten. We should have confidence in defeating it."

Fan Zhiyi said: "The Qatar team is accustomed to playing ~ www.readwn.com ~ We are playing 442. Therefore, the main point of dealing with the Qatar team is to pinch its two sides. In addition, the Qatar team is afraid of snatching and fearing a quick counterattack. , We have to play a little firmer in the game. "

In recent years, the Chinese team has played against the Qatar team several times, but only lost to the opponent in the top ten. The Qatar team is not strong today, in contrast, it should be the weakest team in the quarter-finals. In the three group matches, they played Uzbekistan, Saudi Arabia, and Japan successively, giving people the feeling that when the weaker team is not strong, the stronger team can use the opponent's psychology to take corresponding tactics and induce The opponent made a mistake. However, the group stage is based on the premise of not losing the ball, and drawing the opponent is also the best strategy. However, it is not the case after entering the knockout game. If you cannot win, you will lose.

After playing the Japanese team, Qatar ’s Bosnian coach Haji said: "We have almost run out of bullets in the barrel. How can I let me play the next game! And worse, our opponent actually It is the Chinese team! "After three games, the Qatar team faced the wounded and stretched situation. The main goalkeeper, two main defenders and a forward were unable to play due to injuries, and two of the players who could be substituted were injured. This may be the smoke bomb emitted by Haji, regardless of it.

Looking at the characteristics and style of play of the Qatar team, the individual skills are good, the overall ability is not strong, and the offensive and defensive conversion speed is not fast, especially the methods of attacking opponents are not many. Therefore, they adopt defensive counterattack tactics, focusing on midfield interception and afterwards. Anti-intensive. Faced with such opponents, if the Chinese team can not play the momentum it deserves, lacking the courage to invest in troops and the courage to win, it is very likely to be worn down by the opponent, and overtime or penalty will be decided. At that time, it is unpredictable who will die.

But Chinese players don't think so.

They just want to quickly swipe their cards and get revenge ...
