Midfielder Ruler

Vol 3 Chapter 54: National team coach: Lippi!

The International Competition Day 2013 is all over, but it is destined to be an unforgettable time for Korean fans. Since the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, the Korean men's football team has entered the World Cup final for seven consecutive times.

But the gates of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil closed tightly towards them.

In fact, as early as entering the Intercontinental Playoffs, the ending is already doomed.

The overall strength of Uruguay is obviously higher than that of the South Korean team. If you want to beat Uruguay to get the World Cup qualifying place, the chance is not that there is no chance, but the chance is infinitely close to zero.

The first round was a net loss of Uruguay 0: 5, which has fully demonstrated the difference between their strengths.

The South Korean men's football team was eliminated. The Korean media did not target the underperforming players, but the Chinese men's football team. The accusations of the first star Tang Zheng were speechless.

However, the domestic Chinese media did not pay attention to this, and the fans did not exchange with South Korean fans. Instead, they paid attention to the freshly released male coach of the national team.

In the previous assessment, Bielsa, Manzano and Guangzhou Evergrande head coach Lippi, who were idle at home.

Except that Manzano's resume is slightly worse, Bielsa and Lippi are the best coaches of Chinese men's football.

Bielsa once led Argentina and Chile to the World Cup. In the 2004 Athens Olympics, he also led the Argentine Olympic team to win the gold medal. His coaching experience is quite rich.

Needless to say, Lippi, the coaching club's achievements are dazzling, and the national team also led the Italian national team to win the World Cup in 2006.

Coupled with Lippi just leading Guangzhou Evergrande to win the AFC Champions League, its popularity in China is unprecedentedly strong.

At 0: 0 on the day when the South Korean team was home to 0-0 Uruguay, the Chinese Football Association's official website suddenly announced a news that the Chinese fans have been following for a long time: "According to the selection process of the Chinese Football Association National Team coaches, after friendly consultations between the two sides, China Since November 21, 2013, the Football Association has officially hired Marcelo Lippi as the head coach of the Chinese National Men ’s Football Team. The China Football Association will hold an official media meeting in Beijing on November 26, 2013. "

Tang Zheng noticed the news for the first time. He looked at the Weibo on the screen and grinned: "Is Lippi? Not bad."

Although the head coach is not the ideal Belsa, Lippi, who once led the Italian national team to win the World Cup, is definitely good news for the Chinese team at the World Cup next year.

Cup, experience is crucial.

It's just that this news doesn't feel good for Guangzhou Evergrande fans. After all, Lippi just led Guangzhou Evergrande to win the first ever AFC Champions League in the Chinese Professional League.

Of course, there is no good news.

According to the contract between Guangzhou Evergrande and Lippi, it ended in the winter of 2014, but for special reasons, the contract was terminated one year in advance, and the contract was signed with the Chinese Football Association. Both parties signed a 2 + 1 contract.

Whether it can get a +1 contract depends on the performance of the 2015 Asian Cup in Australia.

As a ‘concession’, Lippi will continue to be the head coach of Guangzhou Evergrande in the World Club Cup in Morocco in December before preparing for the Brazil World Cup as the head coach of the Chinese men ’s football team.

It is worth mentioning that Lippi's ability to become the head coach of Chinese men's football has a great relationship with Guangzhou Evergrande's sacrifice, otherwise Lippi cannot jump out of the contract and sign the Chinese Football Association.

In addition, the annual salary signed between Lippi and the Chinese Football Association remains unchanged, still 10 million euros after tax.

What makes fans wonder is that the five million euros in this annual salary will be borne by Guangzhou Evergrande, and the Chinese Football Association and sponsors will pay another five million euros.

Looking at the relevant report of the whole thing, Tang Zheng smiled helplessly.

Half of the high annual salary of the national team coach is borne by the former owner, which is an unprecedented way of hiring.

Therefore, some domestic media scoff at the FA ’s approach. It is a good thing to ask Lippi to be the head coach of the Chinese men ’s football team, but why should half of the annual salary continue to be borne by the original club?

Over time, a large number of domestic fans have joined the discussion.

But Tang Zheng did not continue to pay attention. For him, the head coach was not just Camacho, who was not capable, even if it was not Lippi or Bielsa, even Manzano.

Back at Valdebebas training base, Tang Zheng, like other teammates, first of all congratulated teammate Cristiano Ronaldo for leading the national team to the World Cup finals stage.

Cristiano Ronaldo and other teammates finished complimenting, turned around and walked in front of Tang Zheng, said with a smile: "If you say that if the World Cup draws let us draw in a group, what do you think?"

"Oh?" Tang Zheng deliberately thought while pressing his legs: "I never really thought about this."

"What if you get it?"

"I think ... you will lose." Tang Zheng turned his head to play with a curious look at Cristiano Ronaldo.

"What?" Cristiano Ronaldo rolled his eyes: "Why are we losing? In terms of overall strength, we are much stronger than you."

"Hey." Tang Zheng smiled and said: "As you said, in case?"

"..."

Cristiano Ronaldo felt thousands of grass and horses running past him.

Immediately, Tang Zheng fell into contemplation, and Cristiano Ronaldo was right. According to the overall strength, the Chinese team is indeed weaker than the European team.

If you want to go further in the World Cup, it is of the utmost importance.

Tang Zheng thought that Lippi, who may be good at defending counterattacks, is the head coach who is really suitable for Chinese men's football.

The draw of the 2014 Brazil World Cup was held in the early hours of December 7, Beijing time, which is 1 pm local time in Brazil.

Before the draw ceremony, Real Madrid had three games, two La Liga matches and one UEFA Champions League group match.

Two of them are home and one is away.

The home side is the Champions League group stage against Galatasaray and the league against Valladolid. The guest is to challenge Almeria after the end of the international competition day.

For the opponent Almeria, whether it is Madrid media or Real Madrid fans, they are very relieved.

why?

So far, Almeria has not yet tasted victory, as the deputy squad leader of the league, Real Madrid won for granted.

The next UEFA Champions League group game against Galatasaray and Valladolid won no problem. After all, Real Madrid has a strong overall strength. Now Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo are in excellent condition.

as predicted!

Real Madrid has won three straight games in a week of reignited battles, and the field is a big win. Real Madrid fans watching it have been addicted.

5-0 victory over Almeria, two home defeats Galatasaray 4: 1 and 4-0 victory over Valladolid, which means Real Madrid scored in the three games at the end of the International Match Day Thirteen crazy goals scored only one goal.

However, what worries Real Madrid fans is that Cristiano Ronaldo has been in good condition in recent games, so that he has become the focus of the opponent's defensive players. In the 5: 0 away game, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal. In case of injury, the game ends.

Although it didn't matter, Ancelotti, in order to protect Cristiano Ronaldo, let him take a rest in the next two home games.

Real Madrid can score eight goals without Cristiano Ronaldo, which is directly related to Tang Zheng's amazing performance.

Three games, two goals, four assists.

One of the goals and three assists occurred in the league, which means Tang Zheng contributed eight goals and fourteen assists in the last 15 rounds of the league.

This statistic can amaze the Spanish media, knowing that La Liga's single-season assist record was created by Barcelona midfielder Harvey, who contributed 20 times in the 2008-2009 season, and Tang Zheng has not reached half of the league. Complete fourteen assists.

It is important to know that La Liga's assist calculation is stricter than other leagues, so in this case, it is rare to have 14 assists in fifteen rounds.

In addition, the match against Malaga in the ninth round of the league is an automatic suspension, which is equivalent to 14 assists in 14 rounds ...

The average assists per game is really scary to think about.

But with Cristiano Ronaldo averaging one goal per game, Tang Zheng's assists per game are still understandable.

While the Chinese media is paying attention to Lippi, the new head coach of the Chinese men's football team, he is also paying attention to Tang Zheng's stunning statistics.

Given that La Liga is now in the three-nation hegemony situation of Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, the other 17 teams are more like studying with the prince, so he thinks that Tang Zheng broke the record of 20 assists in a single season created by Harvey in the 2008-2009 season. Just a matter of time.

It is even possible to create a new record for the unprecedented and the uncommon!

※※※

At the end of the home game against Valladolid, Real Madrid stars received a rest period of nearly a week.

For the main players, the rest period is longer.

Because the match that began a week later was the first round of the 1/16 final of the 2013-2014 King's Cup, Real Madrid's opponent was the unknown CD-Olim.

Even if the away team challenged the West C place team, Real Madrid can easily handle even the replacement players and youth players.

In the decision of Ancelotti ’s coaching team, Cristiano Ronaldo continued to cultivate,

Tang Zheng, Benzema, Ramos and other main players have also been given a chance to take a rest, so the first round of the King ’s Cup 1/16 finals did not even go away in the first round of the contest, staying directly in Madrid.

Lack of a large number of main players and main substitute players, the visiting Real Madrid 0-0 was tied by CD-Olim of the West Third team, bursting a small and unpopular, so the suspense stayed for the second round.

However, Real Madrid's away draw against the West-Category CD-Olim has aroused the attention of many Spanish media and European mainstream media, but considering that Real Madrid uses a large number of benches and young players as the team, facing the West-Team CD-Olim with the tacit understanding. The draw was within acceptable limits.

After all, the Kings Cup knockout stage is two rounds, and the second round sits in Bernabeu and wins almost completely.

Immediately, the focus of the Real Madrid team shifted to the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage.

It's just that the final round of the Champions League group can still be used as a training for Real Madrid. Real Madrid, which scored 13 points in five rounds, made a group round ahead and locked the group first, so the last group match in Copenhagen can send a lot of young Player.

Tang Zheng, Benzema, Ramos and other players who were given the opportunity to take a rest all appeared on the 18-man roster, but on the day before the expedition, an official message published by the FIFA official website and "French Football" attracted the attention of the global media.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Tang Zheng, who are currently playing for Real Madrid, and Messi, who are playing for Barcelona, ​​are shortlisted for the 2013 FIFA Golden Globe Awards final selection, which is when the FIFA Golden Globe Award will be selected among the three of them. .

With the announcement of this news, the Catalan local media began to build momentum for Messi.

Since 2009, Messi has won the World Footballer and FIFA Golden Globe Awards for four consecutive years. Counting the final three in 2007 and 2008, he has entered the final list for seven consecutive years.

Although Messi has only the La Liga title in team honors in the 2012-2013 season, Catalan local media and Barcelona fans believe that Messi is still the best player in the world.

Some Madrid media and Portuguese media are very supportive of Cristiano Ronaldo. In the past 2012-2013 season, he led Real Madrid to win the league runner-up, the King's Cup runner-up and the Champions League runner-up.

It is undeniable that it is somewhat embarrassing to take the Sanya king out, but it just shows that Cristiano Ronaldo is powerful. After all, there was a serious general contradiction in Real Madrid in the 2012-2013 season, which means that there is no Cristiano Ronaldo ’s. With excellent performance, Real Madrid cannot get three runner-ups.

In addition, Portugal ’s ability to qualify for the World Cup next year is entirely dependent on Cristiano Ronaldo. He took all four goals from Portugal, and even when he played a hat-trick on the road, Ibrahimovic ’s big thumb.

Of course, the winner of the FIFA Golden Globe Award favored by mainstream European media is Tang Zheng.

In the 2012-2013 season, no one can match Tang Zheng's glory. He led Dortmund to win the Triple Crown and became the first Triple Crown since the founding of the Bundesliga.

At the national team level ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ He also led the Chinese team to the World Cup in Brazil next year.

The only thing that worries the media supporting Tang Zheng is that he is less widely known internationally than Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, just like Sneijder in 2010 and Iniesta in 2012.

Tang Zheng, who was interviewed by Yang 5, didn't show much worry. He faced the camera and expressed his regrets last year, and then said: "The results and data will not deceive people, even if the final FIFA Golden Ball Award does not belong to me, then It doesn't matter, it belongs to me after all, just like our Chinese old saying is 'There is sometimes life in life, life must not be forced from time to time', of course ... I believe my performance can be worthy of FIFA golden ball prize."

"Photo", which has a pivotal position in the European media, once again reported that if this year's FIFA Golden Globe Award is not Tang Zheng, it will be the biggest shame in world football so far, no one!

The original Golden Globe winner "French Football" and the Brothers "Team" also have related reports, like other "Marca", "Milan Sports News", "Turin Sports News" also support Tang Zheng.

The voice of support continued until the final round of the 2013-2014 UEFA Champions League group stage before it shifted.
