Chapter 296: Sino-German War

Chapter 296: Sino-German War After the match with Fiji, the Chinese Olympic team had a three-day rest. Three days later, they will face their opponent in the third round of the group stage, the German Olympic the third round of the game was very important, Li Yi organized a post-match dinner. Sharing happiness was secondary, and the main purpose was to talk to the players about the next game. The gathering place was a local Chinese restaurant in Rio, very close to the Olympic Village, so safety was adequately guaranteed. Li Yi, who was sitting at the innermost of the round table, stood up and raised the glass in his hand: "Come on, first of all, let me toast to everyone. Everyone played very well today. Hey, Binbin, you don't have to drink. Just take water or a drink." This is Li Yi’s summary of today’s game and also the opening remarks of today’s dinner. After hearing what Li Yi said, the other people at the round table also stood up. There were two choices in the cup, purified water or guarana. Guarana is a local specialty of Brazil. It is a plant-based soda drink whose sales in Brazil are comparable to those of Coca-Cola. Jiang Yuan raised his glass, clinked glasses with Li Yi, and then drank the guarana in the glass. I have to say, it feels really good to drink this iced sparkling water in the summer. "Xiaoyuan, I'll give you another toast!" Seeing Jiang Yuan toasting him, Li Yi quickly asked Li Shubin to help fill his glass with guarana. He pointed in Jiang Yuan's direction and drank it all in one gulp.

Ok…… Jiang Yuan thought about it carefully, then sat back in his seat: "I won't drink any more of this sparkling water..." Li Yi was not a fool either. He quickly waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down: "We are having a party today, so drink less sparkling water." Then, Li Yi looked at Li Shubin next to him and said, "Shubin, ask the waiter to bring a few bottles of drinks, preferably pure drinks." Li Shubin left his seat, and Li Yi signaled everyone not to restrain themselves and just eat. However, although Li Yi said so, none of the 18 players at the table picked up their chopsticks. Everyone turned their eyes to Jiang Yuan, who was sitting diagonally opposite Li Yi. Come again? Jiang Yuan thought of the celebration party in Chelsea before, picked up a small piece of beef with a wry smile, and put it directly into his mouth to chew without dipping it in sauce. "Eat it all, eat it all, eat it all" Li Yi waved the chopsticks in the air a few times, signaling everyone to stop restraining themselves. Jiang Yuan had already started eating, so the others also started eating. Everyone ordered the dishes together, and basically there was something that everyone liked. Among them, the one who ate the most was Zhang Yuning, who was sitting on Jiang Yuan’s right. Although he did not play, this guy seemed to be the hungriest. "Haha, Brother Ning, what's going on? Didn't you have lunch?" Jiang Yuan reached out and touched Zhang Yuning's back. The latter chewed the boiled chicken in his mouth quickly for a few times and then swallowed it: "There's nothing I can do. The food in the Netherlands is really rubbish." Zhang Yuning realized that he was a bit rude and put the chopsticks back on the plate, but everyone told Zhang Yuning to relax. "Hey, Brother Ning, eat whatever you want. There are no reporters watching. What are you afraid of?" Jiang Yuan picked up Zhang Yuning's chopsticks and put them back into Zhang Yuning's hands: "You said the food in the Netherlands is unpalatable, is it the club's restaurant?" Zhang Yuning held the chopsticks in his hand, but he didn't pick up any food at this time: "The food in the Netherlands is also very bad, especially the clubs. There is a round every three days, and it's either macaroni or mashed potatoes. I'm really impressed." "Once you get used to living in China, you will find the food in any country unpalatable."

Li Yi smacked his lips. As an Everton legend, he could be said to have a lot to say. “That’s true.” Zhang Yuning agreed with Li Yi's words. Looking at Li Yi, Zhang Yuning thought of Jiang Yuan who was also playing football abroad. "Brother Yuan, the food in the UK is the worst, right? What do you eat over there?" "Almost the same, macaroni and mashed potatoes. But our club is okay, the food is rotated every week, and the taste is pretty light." To be honest, some things in the UK have no taste at all. It's not just the UK, it's the same in Portugal as well. The food in the entire European football clubs has no taste at all. European food is generally light, which is one reason. Chili pepper is the second reason. Athletes cannot eat chili pepper. There are also things like salt and seasonings. Because athletes eat a lot of food, if all seasonings are added according to normal portions, the inorganic salt level in the athlete's body will exceed the limit, which is not good for training and competition. "Brother Ning, you can try to eat lighter food in China, so that you won't feel so bad when you go to the Netherlands." Jiang Yuan shared his technique with Zhang Yuning: "I never dip beef or boiled chicken in any sauce." "Wow!" Zhang Yuning's eyes lit up, it was indeed a good idea. "But, Brother Ning..." Jiang Yuan thought about it, and finally said to Zhang Yuning next to him: "If you think the food in the club is unpalatable, you can try to divert your attention, focus on the game, or chat with your teammates." According to Jiang Yuan's one and a half years of studying abroad experience, there is an essential difference between light food and unpalatable food. People like to eat all kinds of delicious food because delicious food can bring people happiness. Light foods have a lower stimulation on dopamine, but if Zhang Yuning can find enough passion and fun in training and competition, then it doesn’t matter what the food tastes like. "so……" Zhang Yuning pursed his lips, as if he had listened to what Jiang Yuan said. "But today is a celebration, so it's okay to eat whatever you want!" Jiang Yuan smiled and comforted Zhang Yuning. The main reason why he was willing to share so many experiences with Zhang Yuning was that he felt that this guy had talent and the upper limit of his training was very high. Seeing Jiang Yuan and Zhang Yuning finish their chat, Li Yi immediately knocked on his cup and said, "Everyone, be quiet for a moment. Today is a celebration banquet, but our schedule is quite tight, so I want to take advantage of today's meal to talk to you about the game. You can eat while listening to me. It's okay." Hearing this, everyone put down their chopsticks silently and focused their eyes on Li Yi. Li Yi patted Li Shubin who had just returned from outside the room. Li Shubin did not stand up, but sat down and said: "Before the game with Fiji, I should have told you about the group stage ranking. If we want to avoid being in the same half as Brazil, then we must have the same group ranking as them. If Brazil is first, we must be first. Similarly, if Brazil is second, we must also be second." Before the end of the second round, the Chinese Olympic team planned to get the first place in Group C and then play against Brazil in the semi-finals. But now there is a problem. Brazil has played two consecutive draws with South Africa and Japan, and now has only 2 points. Not to mention being first in the group, even whether we can qualify is still uncertain. "Almost. Let me do it." Li Yi stopped Li Shubin from speaking, and then said, "You should know that in the third round, our match with Germany was played first, so even though we have won all the games and have 6 points now, we are actually in a very passive position." Jiang Yuan and Li Yi looked at each other. Although he was clear about the status of each group and had known the current situation for a long time, he still felt heavy in his heart when he heard Li Yi say it himself. Portugal U23, Nigeria U23, Brazil U23, it is best not to meet these three teams. Among them, the ones China least wants to meet are Brazil and Portugal. China's passing and control are problematic in themselves. If they run into Brazil and Portugal, two teams with particularly good footwork, it's basically GG.

"Brazil's next opponent is Denmark, the second seed in Group A. In the final round, if Brazil can beat Denmark, they should be able to get first place in the group. If they lose, it's hard to say. The situation in Group A is a bit complicated, as all four teams have only 4 points." At this point, Li Yi himself seemed to have no idea what to say, so he remained silent for a while. Jiang Yuan raised his hand: "So what you mean is that we will lose to Germany in the last round and qualify as the second in the group?" "No, no, I think we still have to find a way to win or draw and get first place in the group. Shubin, other coaches and I analyzed it. We watched Brazil's first two games and felt that Brazil had not tried hard enough." Li Yi's words were very clear. The Chinese team's coaching staff believed that Brazil could beat Denmark in the last round and stand out among the four teams with 4 points to take first place in the group. But to be honest, there is a big difference between analysis and theory... Li Shubin looked around at all the players at the table, and finally stopped his gaze on Jiang Yuan: "We must win if we can." 'Germany is difficult to play against' Wu Lei, who had been silent on Jiang Yuan’s left, suddenly spoke. The deputy captain finally spoke at this time. In this Olympics, it is not that bad to say that the Chinese national football team has bad luck. After all, they are the number one seed in Group C, and there is also a Fiji team that is giving away points. Moreover, they have already secured a place in the competition after two rounds. But if we're lucky...the second seed in Group A is Germany, and all our opponents in the knockout stage are strong European teams. We were ahead of the competition in the group stage, but from the third round onwards, we had difficulty making any progress. "With the first two consecutive wins, the fans' expectations of us will definitely be high." Li Yi had a serious expression on his face: "Anyway, let's assume that Brazil is first in the group. Next, we need to find a way to beat Germany. We need to make some changes to our tactics against Germany because the German players' footwork and physical fitness are better than ours. Okay, we'll talk about training later. Let's eat first." "Everyone, have a good rest tomorrow. You can go out and play together, but be careful not to go too far. Rio is not a safe place." "Training starts the day after tomorrow!" …… The next day, Guangming Daily reporters interviewed Chinese fans who came to Rio to watch the games, among whom Wang Xiaomeng was responsible for the football section. "Sir, are you here alone?" Wang Xiaomeng quickly found his target, a young man with messy hair and a Nike backpack. If there are any Happy Bean fans here, they will definitely recognize this guy. Isn’t this A Kun? A Kun's eyes quickly looked over Wang Xiaomeng. Before he started interviewing others, he was interviewed first. "I came with two people, and I also brought a photographer, who is going to the toilet now." A Kun pointed to a public toilet at the far end. There was an Olympic ring painted outside the toilet. It seemed that it was a toilet built specifically for the Olympics. "what?" Wang Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment: "You are also a reporter, are we in the same industry?" "Strictly speaking no, I'm a video blogger, about football"

That's it! Wang Xiaomeng nodded. She didn’t expect that the young man in front of her looked ordinary in appearance, but he was actually a professional football blogger. "So do you mainly do football technical analysis or player interviews?" "neither" "what is that?" Wang Xiaomeng's question really stumped A Kun. The "blogger" was silent for a while, then explained: "Well, it's probably...well, it's, um... probably to make my fans richer or poorer. Common prosperity, you can understand it as common prosperity, that's what I do." Common prosperity? Wang Xiaomeng pondered for a moment, not knowing whether she understood or not. The two exchanged a few words briefly. After getting A Kun's permission, Wang Xiaomeng asked A Kun the first question of the day: "Mr. A Kun, so far, China's Olympic star Jiang Yuan has scored a total of 3 goals and is the top scorer in the Chinese Olympic team. What do you think of his performance?" When he heard "Jiang Yuan", A Kun's eyes seemed to light up: "Jiang Yuan is my idol. I was his fan 19 years ago when he was still a sperm." what? Wang Xiaomeng frowned. It was obvious that A Kun's answer was a little puzzling: "You just want to express that you like Jiang Yuan very much, is that right?" "That's right, this is more than just liking, this is admiration" A Kun raised his chest: "If possible, my dream in the next life is to be Jiang Yuan's son!" hiss-- Wang Xiaomeng took a deep breath. It seemed that she had met her match today. The blogger in front of me named A Kun should not be just an ordinary fan. This guy may have gone crazy. "Sir, please calm down first. I understand your reasoning." After calming A Kun down, Wang Xiaomeng continued to ask, "What about Li Yi? What is your evaluation of the National Olympic coach?" "He's just garbage!" A Kun's eyes revealed a trace of obvious disdain: "I don't know why, even Li Yi is praised. If it weren't for my father's awesomeness, the Chinese Olympic team would have gone home long ago. People on Hupu say that Li Yi has tactics, but his tactics are useless!" A Kun's tone was a bit harsh, and Wang Xiaomeng, who was holding the microphone, was almost startled. Many people on Dongqiudi also said that Li Yi won by doing nothing, but none of them were as exaggerated as A Kun. Wang Xiaomeng was silent for a long time, and finally gave her evaluation: "This is a very novel point of view... You just said that you are a fan of Jiang Yuan, right? In the current Olympic scorer list, Jiang Yuan, who scored 3 goals, is only ranked 5th. Do you think this is appropriate?" "Olympic shooter list?" Ah Kun laughed out loud: "What is the Olympic scorer list? I want to emphasize here, what is the most prestigious football tournament in the world?" “It’s the Champions League” "So who won the Champions League Golden Boot last season?" In the camera, A Kun spread his hands and said, "Do I need to say more? Do I need to say more?" Wang Xiaomeng: …

…… Rest time always passes quickly. Jiang Yuan strolled around the Olympic Village and met many athletes from various countries. Training was about to begin in the blink of an eye. In this Olympics, the training ground of the Chinese Olympic team is a local football youth training school in Rio. In order to ensure the orderly training, the Brazilian government has temporarily moved all the local youth training schools in Rio. The training environment is average, but fortunately it is real grass, and it is 100% Brazilian real grass. Jiang Yuan's training steps at Chelsea are massage, stretching, warm-up, and then training. But the National Olympic Team was definitely not that professional. They skipped the massage step and put stretching after the warm-up. Do some simple muscle stretching after jogging. Almost all Chinese sports clubs and school physical education classes do this. The effect of preventing strain is average, but the technical content is low and it is relatively easy to operate. The players jogged around the court under the leadership of Li Shubin, while Li Yi called Liao Lisheng to his side alone. Li Yi first briefly analyzed Liao Lisheng's problems, such as his thin body and poor sprinting speed. Liao Lisheng kept nodding, and he was also clear about his problems. Li Yi's purpose of analyzing his problems was certainly not to let Liao Lisheng improve, as it was too late to improve now. What he had to do was to notify Liao Lisheng of tactical changes. "You won't be in the starting line-up against Germany" Li Yi's words made Liao Lisheng freeze in place. It took him several seconds to recover from his surprise: "Brother Tie? Why is that? I think my kicking is OK. My cooperation with Brother Yuan and Brother Lei is pretty good." "But you lose the ball too easily in the frontcourt. Facing a passing and controlling team like Germany, if we continue to play like before, our possession rate may not even be 30%." “But I get along very well with my teammates.” Liao Lisheng didn't want to give up. For a football player, the Olympics only come once in a lifetime. There is no such thing as "being a substitute this time, and a starter next time". Today he was a substitute in the Rio Olympics, and 4 years later he will be a spectator in the Tokyo Olympics. "You don't have to say anymore." "Ah? Is this the coaching staff's decision?" “This is my decision, and I think it’s the right thing to do.” Liao Lisheng scratched his head and said, "Shouldn't the entire coaching staff make the decision together on this matter of changing the starting lineup? I want to hear what Coach Li Shubin thinks..." “I’m the head coach” Li Yi's tone was firm, not giving Liao Lisheng a chance to refute: "I don't think I should make decisions based on the opinions of the team. I am the final decision maker." "I……" Liao Lisheng wanted to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything. If you think about it carefully, what Li Yi said makes sense. He is the head coach. Whoever he wants to start has to start, and whoever he wants to be on the bench has to be on the bench. Faced with the tough Li Yi, Liao Lisheng was helpless and could only silently accept the fact that he became a substitute. As a professional athlete, Liao Lisheng also knows that if he is replaced from the starting lineup for tactical reasons, he may not be the starting lineup in the knockout rounds. The reason is very simple. The styles of the knockout opponents and Germany are similar. He sat on the bench when playing against Germany, and he also had to sit on the bench when playing against other countries. GG, isn’t this?

…… In the training session, Li Yi first let the players of the National Olympic Team play some circle grabbing, and then conduct some small-scale passing and receiving training after they find their foot feel. After the morning training, Li Yi gathered the players together and announced the starting lineup for tomorrow afternoon's game. "Midfield: Chang Feiya, Xie Pengfei, and then Wu Xinghan" "what?" The players looked at each other, and finally their eyes focused on Li Yi. They wanted to use their eyes to tell Li Yi that he was wrong. Li Yi glanced at the players and repeated it. "Midfield: Chang Feiya, Xie Pengfei, Wu Xinghan, any questions?" The players were silent. Jiang Yuan pointed at Liao Lisheng next to him and asked, "Are you injured?" Liao Lisheng shook his head. Jiang Yuan was somewhat unhappy to hear that Liao Lisheng was left out of the starting lineup even though he was not injured. For Jiang Yuan, Liao Lisheng was undoubtedly the best choice to play as attacking midfielder. Liao Lisheng is good at small technical dribbling and through passes, which is somewhat similar to William. Their through pass ability can help Jiang Yuan find more opportunities. Of course, Jiang Yuan knew that the coaching staff might have other considerations, but out of respect for the coach, he did not raise any objections. That evening, the German Olympic Committee released a warm-up poster for the competition on Instagram. In the picture, a black eagle pounces on a red dragon. The dragon's eyes are confused, but the eagle's eyes are extremely ferocious. Soon, the match with Germany will begin. The venue for this match is the Maracanã Stadium, which is also the venue for the opening ceremony. The Maracana Stadium has a total of 78000 seats. Among all the stadiums Jiang Yuan has played in the Premier League, only Old Trafford can be compared with this stadium. There were a lot of seats, but the fans of both countries did not disappoint. More than 5 people came to the China-Germany match, and Chinese fans still accounted for the majority, almost 3. In fact, there were not so many Chinese fans coming to watch the Olympics at the beginning, but because the results of the first two games were so good, many fans bought tickets and flew over temporarily. During the Rio Olympics, Olympic tickets can be used as visas temporarily. The purpose of this policy is to attract more tourists to watch the games and travel during the Olympics. The policy is indeed useful. The fans who flew from China to watch the China-Germany match are the beneficiaries. CCTV5+ "China Media Group, China Media Group!" "We are now live broadcasting the third round of the Group A of the men's football match at the 2016 Rio Olympics, the match between the Chinese National Olympic Team and the German National Olympic Team. This match will be commented on by me (Zhan Jun) and teacher Zhang Lu." "The national anthem ceremony has ended and the players are now heading to their respective positions" "Now I will introduce the starting lineups of both teams. First up is the Chinese Olympic team wearing red jerseys." "..." "Well, compared to the previous game, the Chinese team's formation has made some small changes. Wu Xinghan, who played as a winger in the last game, is now in the attacking midfielder position. Liao Lisheng, who performed well in the previous game, is on the bench. The central defenders are still Wang Tong and Mi Haolun." "Then the German Olympic team, wearing a black jersey, attacks from the right side of the screen to the left side. They are the team that serves first." 德国U23（4-2-3-1） Goalkeeper: Horn

Defenders: Kroosmann, Sule, Ginter, Tolian Midfielders: Sven Bender, Lars Bender, Max Meyer Forwards: Gnabry, Brandt, Selke Head coach: Stefan Kunz …… "Teacher Zhang Lu, today's focus game is between the German Olympic team, which has the second highest total team value, and the Chinese Olympic team, which has the third highest total team value. Both teams have very strong lineups." "Hey, Coach Zhan is right. We can see that among the 22 starting players on the field today, 12 of them are from the top five leagues. This kind of lineup is very remarkable in the Olympic football match." "If the Chinese team wants to win this game, they must make good use of the midfield line. The three players in the midfield, Chang Feiya, Xie Pengfei, and Liao... Wu Xinghan, these three players must find a way to control the ball, and then find opportunities to connect with Jiang Yuan and Wu Lei. In this way, hehe, maybe we can really beat Germany." Because it was an Olympic event, there were a lot of new fans coming to watch the game. Therefore, CCTV has specially arranged a person in charge of analysis, Zhang Lu, to help new fans learn as much as possible about football. In terms of technical and tactical analysis, Zhang Lu's level is definitely beyond doubt. "China!" Boom! "China!" "Boom!" The audience was very enthusiastic. The director's camera turned to a Chinese fan in the stands. He had painted his entire face with red paint, and then made a few five-pointed stars with yellow paint. When he saw his face appear on the big screen, the red-faced Guan Gong let out an angry roar. “China is awesome—(broken voice)!!!” Question: What sport can best reflect the cohesion of a country or a nation? Answer: Football On the court, the game was in the 5th minute. As all fans expected, Germany controlled the ball for at least 75%. As long as the Chinese team passed the ball a little slower, German players would find opportunities. This is certainly not a problem with a certain player on the Chinese team, but the rhythm of the entire team is not on the same level as the opponent. The German Olympic team's passing rhythm is one level faster than that of the Chinese Olympic team! "Give it to me, give it to me quickly!" Chang Feiya asked Shi Ke for the ball, and after taking it, he passed it to Wu Xinghan. But just before Wu Xinghan was about to receive the ball, Rasband rushed out and poked the ball with his toe, kicking it directly out. My day! The Chinese players felt something was not going well. Among them, Chang Feiya immediately rushed from the left to the middle, trying to intercept Rasband who was dribbling the ball. But there was a problem here. Jiang Yuan was standing very forward. When Chang Feiya ran to the middle, a huge gap appeared between Jiang Yuan and Shi Ke, and this gap was taken by Sven Bender. The two Benders of the German team made a very simple passing combination, and finally Sven Bender took the ball and launched an attack on the penalty area of ​​the Chinese team. Fortunately, Shi Ke was very strong and stood in position immediately, causing Sven Bender to lose the opportunity to pass the ball in the first place. Shi Ke's position was very clever, far from the baseline but close to the sideline, which prevented the German team from using defenders to find attacking opportunities. Svendberg had no choice but to pass the ball back, and Brandt finally transferred the ball to the left. Selke headed the ball back and the ball landed at Gnabry's feet. Gnabry didn't seem to take the Chinese players seriously at all. After getting the ball, he didn't cooperate with his teammates and rushed to the baseline alone. The final cross was headed away by Zhang Linpeng. The second corner kick of the game and also the second corner kick for the German team.

clap clap! "Come on, come on!" Wang Dalei called on his teammates to take position quickly, and Jiang Yuan also hurried back from the frontcourt. In this game, Li Yi assigned Jiang Yuan the task of defending the German team's center forward, Selke from Bundesliga RB Leipzig. This player has an extremely strong ability in heading the ball, and he is 1 meters tall. There is no player on the Chinese team who can compete with him, so Jiang Yuan has to take charge. PS: China's two central defenders, Wang Tong and Mi Haolun, are both only about 1 meters tall. "The German team's corner kick was taken by Sven Bender. The corner kick was taken and Selke headed it at the first point. Hmm! However, Jiang Yuan interfered before Selke jumped, so Selke's shot did not have enough power." "Wang Dalei, hold the ball!" "Well done, the Chinese team can launch a counterattack. Let's see how the Chinese team handles this counterattack opportunity." "Wang Dalei, throw the ball directly to Wu Lei!" "Wu Lei dribbled the ball on the right, but he didn't stop it very well, but it wasn't a big problem." "Klostermann is chasing, can Wu Lei run faster? Run faster!" "The speed is too slow. Wu Lei was caught up by Klostermann. He found the position of the ball. Jiang Yuan was in the middle. Jiang Yuan was waving!" "Wu Lei, pass it!" "Uh... this pass, maybe because of the high-speed running, Wu Lei's pass was a bit wrong" In the camera, Wu Lei stared at Klostermann and wanted to use his right foot to pass the ball to Jiang Yuan who was rushing up to the middle to receive the ball, but his force was weak and the pass position also had big problems. Jiang Yuan had just finished defending a corner kick. Although he was fast, he could not run much distance in such a short time. He meant to let Wu Lei make a triangle pass back to him on the right, and then he would pass the ball directly to Hummels. "What the f*ck is this!?" Jiang Yuan pointed at Wu Lei and yelled, then ran more than 40 meters, but his teammate directly gave the ball to the opponent. How could Jiang Yuan tolerate this? "My mine!" Wu Lei raised his hand and apologized to Jiang Yuan with an embarrassed expression. call! After letting out a breath, Jiang Yuan began to defend. Even though Germany and Mexico tied, the two teams are really not on the same level. From the perspective of the players on the field, Jiang Yuan could personally feel the strength of their opponents. They can't be considered strong either, mainly because for Jiang Yuan, who is currently playing for the national team, the German Olympic team is a little too strong. To be honest, if there was a William in the midfield and a Zouma in the defense, Jiang Yuan would be able to beat the shit out of the opponent. But this is not possible. Because of Wu Lei's passing error, Germany got a second chance to attack in a short time. After intercepting the ball, Hummels seized the opportunity and made a long pass, accurately sending it to Brandt. "Middle! Go to the middle!" Brandt looked up and pointed to the middle, where Gnabry and Selke ran in.

Wang Tong and Mi Haolun thought Brandt was going to pass the ball, so they quickly retreated to their defense line. "Fuck, leave one!" Jiang Yuan shouted loudly, signaling Wang Tong and Mi Haolun to leave one of them on the penalty area line and wait for the midfielder to return to defense, but it was too late. Brandt passed the ball to the middle, Maxmeyer took the ball with the outside of his foot, adjusted one step and then took a long shot. “GOOOOOLLLLLLLOOOOOOO!!! "MAX MEYER, Número 7 da Alemanha" "wwwwwooww!!" "wowww!" "Deutschland! (Germany)" "Deutschland!" Bang bang bang bang! The German fans at the Maracana Stadium livened up the atmosphere. The director first focused the camera on Max Meyer who was sliding on his knees to celebrate, and then on Jiang Yuan. The Chinese team's No. 7 put his hands on his hips and spat on the ground. It can be seen that Jiang Yuan is very helpless now. Just as Zhang Lu said before, the rhythm of the two teams was completely on different levels. The German team deceived the entire Chinese backcourt with just one run. The wingers and center forwards advanced at the same time, and the German players almost had the words "compress the defense line" written on their faces. However, Wang Tong and Mi Haolun were still deceived. Jiang Yuan shook his head, ran back and emphasized to the backcourt players: "Don't be too anxious to return to the small penalty area. Heading the ball is not that easy. The players outside the penalty area are the most dangerous." "come on! Come on!" Jiang Yuan waved his hands twice, and Zhang Linpeng followed suit and began to encourage his teammates. Whoosh! Li Yi stood in front of the bench, blowing his hair, feeling heavy-hearted. The previous matches against Mexico and Fiji had caused Li Yi to misjudge the level of the national Olympic players. Now it seems that the German Olympic team, which consists of 11 players from the top five leagues, is no match that the Chinese Olympic team can defeat! Fortunately, there are many points, so the fighting spirit of the Chinese side is still relatively high. After Maxmeyer scored a goal, Zhang Linpeng led the players out of their depressed mood. In the 15th minute of the game, the technology company gave the ball possession data of the two teams. CHN: GER=27%:73% In fact, there is no need for technology to provide data, everyone can see that the Chinese team basically cannot get any ball possession. The side with low ball possession is often passive. In the 17th minute, the German Olympic team launched an attack through Rasband's advancement in the midfield. I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but the German team would not go to the left side of the Chinese team when attacking, resulting in Jiang Yuan having great tackling skills but nowhere to use them. "Teacher Zhang Lu, what do you think of the current situation on the field?" "Well, first of all, I think the Chinese team should give up fighting for possession of the ball with Germany at this time, because there is no chance at all. It is best to play a defensive counterattack at this time, a sudden and quick counterattack after intensive defense, this should be the only way for the Chinese team to score a goal." "Hey, wait, let's take a look at Germany's attack. Rasband advanced and passed the ball to Gnabry on the left. Gnabry did not choose to go down the line immediately after controlling the ball. He should have waited for his teammates to receive the ball." "Klostermann is edging, and Xie Pengfei is following!" "Max Meyer, come up and cooperate with Gnabry, Max Meyer, pass the ball directly to Selke!"

"Oh! It was almost there. Fortunately, Mi Haolun reacted quickly and blocked Selke's position. Selke in the penalty area didn't get any chance." "Pass it to Klostermann on the left. Xie Pengfei and Klostermann are in a 1v1 situation. Zhang Linpeng is looking at Gnabry!" "Hit the wall! Klostermann broke through the Chinese team's side defense and passed the ball inside!" "Middle! Selke! Shoot directly!" "GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" "Davie Selke!!!!" Thanks to the goal from No. 9 center forward Selke, the German team widened the score difference to 2 goals. [Wow, Germany is so awesome, no wonder they beat Fiji 10:0 before, they really have the talent] 【Can China stand up? ! 】 [Damn, I can imagine how uncomfortable Jiang Yuan must be on the court. All his teammates' passes were inaccurate. Wu Lei is also a talent. He stopped the ball 3 meters away. Is this the level of the Chinese Super League? ] [Alas, the rhythm is different, there is nothing we can do. The opponents are 11 players from the top five leagues in Germany. Although many of them are substitutes, they are still not something the Chinese team can beat. To be honest, there is nothing we can do. Anyway, we can qualify, so there is nothing to worry about.] [The problem is that the opponents in the knockout rounds are all the same ball-control teams. If we can’t beat Germany, we can’t beat the next ones either…] [So don't have too high expectations. China's performance in this Olympics has already broken historical records. You are too greedy! ] [Can you create more opportunities for Xiao Jiang? A 7500 millionaire standing in front of him, his teammates can't even get the ball to him, what the hell?] [Wu Xinghan is not good as a midfielder. His defense is better than Liao Lisheng, but if Liao Lisheng is replaced, there will be no one to pass the ball to Jiang Yuan. Li Yi, why don’t you let Wu Xinghan play as a defender? He has good talent as a defender.] [Appeared, the football expert, if you know so much, why don't you go coach? 】 [It felt like Xiao Jiang was playing alone the whole time, with one person passing three players on the side lane] There are many fake fans in the live broadcast room, but there are also many people who really understand. The biggest reason why this game is different from the previous two games is the improvement of the opponent's players' strength. When playing against Mexico and Fiji before, there was not much cooperation between Jiang Yuan and his teammates, but when facing such weak teams, Jiang Yuan could look for 1 vs. 2 or even 1 vs. 3 opportunities to break through. Now the opponents have become the lineups of the top five leagues, and everyone is on the same level. It is already amazing that Jiang Yuan can pass 1 with 2, but the German coach Kunz directly arranged three players. As long as Jiang Yuan gets the ball near the baseline, at least three German players will rush over to double-team him. Three people each locked on to one direction. Jiang Yuan couldn't even pass the ball back, so he could only stand near the corner flagpole as punishment. Whoosh! The director's camera turned to Li Yi. The national Olympic coach blew his hair and discussed with Li Shubin next to him. The two discussed for about 2 minutes and finally came to a conclusion - park the bus! "Xie Pengfei, Wu Lei! You two move back, we're going to play a defensive counterattack!" "Wu Xinghan, find a chance to talk to the players on the left. They can't hear me shouting from here!" "We have to play defensive counterattack, don't try to attack!" Whoosh!

Whoosh! There was no wind on the court, but Li Yi's hair fluttered up and down in front of his forehead. …… (End of this chapter)
