Except for the first morning in South Africa, where everyone went to the beach to relax for a long time, the rest of the time were intensive preparations for the event. The Spanish team played twice a year ago. Of course, it is not unfamiliar. Chen Tao and Li Weifeng are still in Deportivo and have played with the main players of the Spanish team.

The focus is on how to transform into combat power after being defeated by 2:4 last time and using new football ideas to defeat the Spanish team. Although the first match of the group stage does not seek to win, the Chinese team will eventually have to overcome this hurdle in order to win the World Cup.

If you don't seek victory in the group stage, it's just a buffer for this new system.

On the evening of June 15th, in the seaside manor on the outskirts of Durban, the national team returned to adapt to the venue for the last time in the afternoon. After dinner, they gathered in a small conference room for the final formal readiness meeting.

"We have analyzed the opponent's situation many times in the past few days." Lao Gao, dressed in a white shirt, put his hands on the table and said slowly: "This is a fast pass that constantly distracts the opponent's attention and seeks opportunities. The team that suddenly used a straight pass and a diagonal pass to win the game. In other words, this is a very flexible, very clever, and very cunning opponent."

Headed by Wang Ai, everyone sat in a mess, opposite to Gao Hongbo, diagonally opposite, leaning, standing, or even half-lying, but no one spoke, just listening to Lao Gao's analysis.

"Our new system focuses on confrontation, and gains control of the field through confrontation. It applies to both offense and defense. This is our self-construction. We have been doing this a few days ago." Gao Hongbo said. , I glanced at Yan Shiduo and Zhang Jilong. This is considered to be an explanation to the two leaders. After seeing the two leaders nodding slightly, they continued: "But the characteristics of each opponent are different, so today we will make some specific arrangements for Spain. ."

There was the sound of gently moving chairs in the conference room, and Gao Hongbo's voice was a little hoarse: "Wang Ai, Chen Tao."

Sitting diagonally across from Lao Gao, Wang Ai, who was frowning with his arms folded on his shoulders, raised his brow. Chen Tao, who was leaning on the back of the chair with one hand next to him, also raised his head when he heard the sound. Lao Gao's small eyes stared at them. "Your mission in this game is to not only seize control of the midfield, but also suppress the opponent’s key players. Two Xavies, one is Real Madrid’s Xavi Alonso, the other is Barcelona’s Xavi Hernand Here, Harvey is what most people say, we have said it many times."

Zhao Xuri, who was sitting in front of Chen Tao and Wang Ai, turned his head and whispered to Gao Lin in a low voice: "Big eyes stared at Harvey."

Gao Lin made an "oh" expression.

Gao Hongbo glanced at the two of them, without saying anything, and continued: "Xavi Alonso is a defensive midfielder, which is characterized by accurate long passes and fluidity. This is very similar to some of our passes. You two don’t care who plays forward. The waist, who is in the back, don’t give him a chance to take his feet calmly in the front midfield. Of course, the focus is still on our four backcourts. His long pass is often behind our back line. Don’t because Keeping the ball away from you relaxes your nerves."

Sun Jihai, Luo Tongliang, Li Weifeng and others are destined to be the veterans of the last World Cup nodded earnestly.

"As for this big-eyed Harvey." When Lao Gao said this, he glanced at Zhao Xuri, and then said: "If you want to force him, you must not miss him. His passing quality is high, and he is constantly moving. We find our flaws in the constant flow of all. No one can do it without flaws. After all, if you don’t move, he will move, and he will actively adjust his direction, so that you are not flaws but flaws. So the point is not It lies in the blocking after he passes, but in evading in advance. We watched a lot of games, and the danger came when he started passing the ball. So for us, we don’t need very beautiful blocking or saves. It is to eliminate the risk in advance, even if it cannot be eliminated, it must be controlled."

Speaking of this, Gao Hongbo smiled suddenly and turned to look at the only woman in the conference room: "Leo Niu, what do you have to say?"

Leoni smiled embarrassedly, and then said frankly: "Listening to high-level guidance reminds me of the risk control problems that I often face when I am a business. Generally speaking, risk control is divided into three stages, post-control, Control in the event, control in advance."

Speaking of this, Leo Ni nodded at the crowd and didn't say any more.

Gao Hongbo continued: "So what we require is to control Harvey, the source of risk beforehand. Wang Ai and Chen Tao, no matter who of you is near him at that time, you must stay close to him, and don't give him a calm footing. Space to observe and think calmly. Although it is impossible to avoid him passing or even threatening the ball, your entanglement will reduce the quality of his pass, which will increase the difficulty of the forward to receive the ball, thus giving our defenders and our goalkeepers to reduce the danger. Difficulty, understand?"

Wang Ai nodded, and Chen Tao said: "In addition to us, everyone else is too."

Gao Hongbo nodded: "Yes, you have basically received coach Jose's guidance. Chelsea and Inter Milan under his leadership have well contained Barcelona's tick tick tactics (Spanish Tiki-Taka, using Chinese pinyin is basically equivalent to DIDIDADA). ), a combination of area defense, close defense, and chain defense. As long as the above is done well, the Spanish team will be helpless and not so powerful. As for offense, Xiao Dong and Xiao Mao, are you clear about your starting goals?"

Dong Fangzhuo and Mao Jianqing have already known that they will start in this game. They have changed rooms with their teammates in the past few days. They have been together day and night, and they replied: "I know, I have an obvious physical advantage. I rushed to Spain. Xiao Mao is fast and hits. Through the midfield, you can play the link between me and the midfielder, play the second forward, or give me assists."

Mao Jianqing smiled: "You can also assist me."

Dong Fangzhuo smiled and said, "Of course, see who has the best chance."

This is a new generation of national team forwards, officially succeeding Bai Guanghai and other old generation forwards in the first battle. Although the main reason is that the Chinese team is playing defensive counterattacks in this field, the young people have stronger impact, and Bai Guanghai has no physical advantage by relying on his brain. It was, but after all, the young man came up.

Lao Bai had no expression, with his fingers crossed. When he came to South Africa this time, he shaved his big bald head again, which seemed to be shaved.

"Zheng Zhi, Yan Song." Lao Gao finally named the two full-backs: "Your task is also very difficult. The Spanish team has a third engine, Iniesta and Silva, especially Iraq. Niesta, Zheng Zhi, you have to be careful not to let him pass by."

"Understand." Zheng Zhi and Yan Song Surong replied concisely.
