The 41-year-old German Ian von Adrian is the goalkeeper coach of the Chinese team. He came to China from Madiburg early last year to replace the departing Juan Unzue.
Adrian's professional playing career was very dull, spending most of his time wandering between teams in the Bundesliga relegation zone and the Bundesliga 2 bench. In the summer of 2003, St. Pauli was relegated from the Bundesliga 2, and substitute goalkeeper Adrian would rather play in the Bundesliga 2.
He cried on the bench and did not want to smile while wearing the main gloves of the third division, so he transferred on a free transfer to Madiburg, which had just been promoted to the second division of the Bundesliga, and continued to serve as the backup goalkeeper he was very familiar with.
In fact, Adrian has been basically the third goalkeeper since he arrived at Madiburg. He has not played a few games from beginning to end, but he has also won many collective honors in those years.
At that time, Adrian's main job was the team's entertainment committee, and he was keen on organizing team dinners, so he was very popular and had a close relationship with Zhuo Yang.
In 2010, the 35-year-old Adrian retired and later became the goalkeeper coach of the Madiburg youth training echelon. He also studied under the German goalkeeper training master Ilgner and became his assistant.
Adrian came to China to work last year, largely out of loyalty. The fact that Zhuo Yang was alive and dead made everyone in Madibao very sad.
After arriving, Adrian worked very seriously. He was completely different from his hip-hop appearance when he was a player. He was an excellent coach with both ability and ideas.
Previously, the top two goalkeepers of the Chinese team were basically fixed at 25-year-old Yan Junlin and 27-year-old Wang Dalei. The third goalkeeper was more random. Domestic goalkeepers are at a low level of convergence, and there is not much difference between them.
The relatively outstanding Yan Junlin and Wang Dalei were both trained by Wensue at the national team level. As a goalkeeper coach with a strong desire for performance and ambition, Adrian naturally wants to find another Chinese goalkeeper worthy of attention.
After much searching, he found Gu Chao from Greentown.
The 27-year-old Gu Chao is indeed an outstanding goalkeeper in the Chinese Super League. From a technical perspective, he is even more comprehensive than the neurotic Wang Dalei, and has more passion than the steady Yan Junlin.
Therefore, starting from last year, Gu Chao entered the national team training camp and gradually became the third goalkeeper behind Yan and Wang. Adrian said that he has the potential of Ter Stegen. After saying this, he realized that Gu Chao
Bi Nengpu was 3 years older, so he quickly changed his story and said it was because of Neuer's influence.
This evaluation is quite high, and Yan Junlin is simply called "Little Handanovich" by the people of Madiburg.
With Adrian's encouragement and training, the Chinese Super League has made significant progress and his self-confidence has been greatly improved. In 2015, he became the best goalkeeper in the Chinese Super League and moved to the Chinese Super League giant Suning at the end of the year.
As the 'new' goalkeeper who was promoted through hard work, Gu Chao is Adrian's report card, so he naturally hopes to give Gu Chao more opportunities. However, Adrian is a serious German coach who pays most attention to rules.
I won't interfere with Sforza's authority in hiring, but it's okay to recommend one or two based on his perfect popularity.
The current atmosphere of the national team's coaching staff is even more harmonious than during the era of Jie Shuai, and Adrian is a heroic hero who throws himself in during times of crisis. Sforza arranged to start the ancient Chinese Super League in today's home game against Syria.
To be able to enter the national team, one must first pass the ability test. Gu Chao has the ability to serve as a goalkeeper for the country. Otherwise, let alone Adrian, Yashin, and Zov, it would be impossible to join him.
They are all Chinese goalkeepers, who is better than the other?
Moreover, Syria is the only team among the top 12 that regards counterattack as its iron rice bowl. They play this way no matter who they play. The double-decker bus is parked outside the penalty area. Therefore, the main test of this game is the offensive ability of the national team.
With the ability to break through intensive defense, the pressure on the back line will not be as great as when fighting Han Yi.
In fact, the Chinese fans at St. Zhuque's home stadium basically don't care who the team's starting goalkeeper is today. They are only worried about whether Zhuoyang's Achilles tendon still hurts.
As long as you don't exert any force, your feet will definitely stop hurting, but watching this game made Zhuo Yang's head hurt.
As soon as the whistle blew, Syria quickly retreated into the half-court, handed over possession of the ball, and began the ancient craft of lining a bus with iron buckets without regrets.
There is no distinction between good and bad football tactics, it just depends on whether they are suitable and whether they work. This method is both suitable and effective for Syria.
In the first half, the Chinese team shot 8 times, and the shots were within zero range of the goal frame. At the beginning of the second half, Sforza took turns adjusting the attackers, trying to change someone to get lucky. The decisive attack ability is weak, which is a fine tradition of the Chinese team, and Syria is good at it.
The prevention of counterattacks is exactly the symptom of the Chinese team.
Syria only had three shots in the game, and only one of them was on target.
The first-time starter in the Guchao team does have the style of Neuer. He repeatedly ran out of the penalty area to receive back passes from his teammates, and moved left and right with his feet in a decent manner, showing a promising performance.
In the 53rd minute, Syria counterattacked. The full-back captain Al Saleh passed the ball from the center line, and the short midfielder Almawis made a diagonal pass to form a pass-and-run connection.
The Chinese team's defense line was too high, but the recovery speed was okay. Feng Xiaoting and Ren Hang formed a pincer attack on Almavis, with Zhang Tiedan behind him.
But there was no need for the three of them. Gu Chao struck like a bolt of lightning.
Gu Chao stepped on the penalty area and took off. Almavis just poked the football in the air with his toe at the top of the key. Then Gu Chao volleyed over Ren Hang and then knocked down Zhang Tiedan.
The incomprehensible Almavis was left running alone into the empty penalty area with the ball. Although he didn't fully understand what happened, he knew that there was a lonely and vast empty goal in front of him. If he couldn't kick it in, he would be sorry for his hard work.
Mohamed Almawis's lonely push shot was the only shot on target for Syria in the entire game, 0:1.
Zhuo Yang and Sforza were stunned, and Von Adrian had already lowered his head and covered his head with his hands. Amidst the incredible noise of the St. Suzaku fans, Adrian seemed to understand in a trance: the difference between individual Chinese goalkeepers
There is indeed not much difference in technical ability, but the key to distinguishing them is their psychological quality in major competitions.
Whether you are nervous or not depends on the technical actions you make under pressure, not the exaggerated expression.
Gu Chao is considered a good goalkeeper, and he may not make such urgent mistakes in the league. 27-year-old Wang Dalei and 25-year-old Yan Junlin have many technical shortcomings, but the country has spent eight years and eight years training them.
It took six years to finally be able to perform relatively normally in important games.
The 27-year-old Gu Chao no longer has this opportunity.
This goal refueled the Syrian bus, and goalkeeper Ibrahim Alma began to frequently perform technical glove removal and tactical shoelace tying.
Let’s not talk about whether his delaying behavior was a scam, but his mental quality of being slow and unhurried despite being yelled at and repeatedly warned by the referee is enough for Gu Chao to learn for a lifetime.
Well, things cannot be so absolute, and Gu Chao cannot be beaten to death with a stick. It is not that many well-known goalkeepers in world football have not made mistakes at critical moments that will be regretted forever and that are heartless.
I have no choice but to forgive him like this first, because killing someone is fucking illegal.
Chapter completed!
