At halftime, the atmosphere in the national football locker room was dull and strange.
The team thought about losing and could accept the loss, but they never expected that the loss would be so straightforward. They were beaten 0:3 at the end of the half. If this trend continued throughout the game, No. 100 would still have lost.
How shameful is it to return to China?
Of course, poor overall strength is one of the reasons for falling behind by a big score, but in which of the first six games did the team's overall strength really surpass its opponents? In which one was it not swimming against the current?
Everyone knew the real reason for this situation. Without or daring to blame, everyone secretly looked at the captain Zhuo Yang.
Uncle Zhuo was leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, his expression as peaceful as a Buddha.
At this time, everyone already understood that Zhuoyang was not acting randomly or being stupid today. He was thinking about what he was thinking about, but naturally he couldn't guess it. Only Yang Chen, Sforza, Cheng Hao and others who noticed a little bit of it.
People were on tenterhooks because they didn't know what the result of Zhuoyang's thinking would be.
In their opinion, Zhuoyang is not here to compete today, but tossing a coin on the field.
A coin has two sides, and you can only leave it to fate as to what will happen when it falls on the ground. Zhuo Yang's coin has two sides: one is retirement and the other is continuation.
Cheng Hao was fine, Yang Chen and Sforza were just waiting for the verdict.
However, Zhuo Foye did not flip the coin, he was thinking about the pass he realized in the first half.
The feeling is already in place, but not completely there yet. It is still a little short of absolute control. This little bit cannot be quantified or even described in words. It is an indescribable feeling in the heart.
Experts know the ropes. Almost all football experts in the world are watching this game. Most people regard Zhuoyang's passes in the second half of the first half as mistakes.
Although it is indeed imaginative, it does not resonate with teammates, and no matter how good the imagination is, it is meaningless.
Only the top passing masters, such as Pirlo, Zidane, Meng Er, Laudrup, Ronaldinho, Messi, Beckham, Xavi, and perhaps Magic Flute and Tintin, they do not
I would consider this a mistake.
The reason is simple, it was an opportunity created out of nothing by Zhuo Yang. There was no way in the world, Zhuo Yang found it as soon as he passed the ball. He did not waste the opportunities in the game data, but fabricated new opportunities out of thin air.
And it seems that teammates can't run in place, but if teammates catch up one time, it is almost certain to score a goal, such as the crossbar hit by Wu Lei, No. 7 of the Chinese team. Such a sword to seal the throat is more ambiguous than those that appear in tactics.
The chances are higher than Everest.
Asking yourself, these great players lamented that they really couldn't pass Zhuo Yang's kick. They had never thought that such a pass was possible before today.
But Zhuoyang is still not satisfied. Alas, perfectionism is not a good thing.
He closed his eyes and let the past few passes play over and over in his mind, trying to see if there was the most perfect way.
When experiencing something, people are from the first perspective, and the picture in your eyes is only the other people and things in front of you. But when you recall the event after it has passed, it magically becomes a third perspective, and you are with other people and things.
appeared on the screen.
Zhuoyang's mind now is no longer what he saw on the court, nor is it the situation predicted based on football experience, but the entire St. Petersburg Stadium.
He was suspended in the sky, overlooking the 105×68=7140m2 range below from a vertical perspective, and the various details of the enemy and ourselves became clearer. Zhuoyang could even see where each of the England players was looking, and where their respective centers of gravity were heading.
.
If you can use this perspective and let your body in the middle of the game handle the pass, it would be perfect.
It's just this little difference.
How should I do this? Zhuo Yang hasn't figured it out yet.
Sforza didn't understand even more, but he understood that this situation could not be allowed to continue. After all, it was a World Cup bronze medal match, so he didn't need the bronze medal. He had said before that he didn't need to play for Zhuoyang, but he couldn't really hold another 0.
:8Go home.
The captain is unreliable, can we play 4-3-2-0 with ten people? The key is that the defense is really unable to handle it, and the shortcomings of the three substitute defenders are obvious.
In fact, Li Xuepeng, Zheng Zheng, Jiang Zhipeng, and Feng Xiaoting, a veteran of three dynasties in the red league, are already top-notch local defenders in the Chinese Super League. They can run sideways in their respective teams. But the gap is just a gap.
When it comes to big events, it can only be steamed until it turns red and is served with rice wine.
There was no backup plan. Brother Zha replaced Li Xuepeng with the only Eunuch Jiang who could still play. As for the protection of the defense, Li Ke, who was the best in interception and steals in the midfield, was already on the court. Brother Zha was stunned for a long time and could only accept if
If you want to go home decently, you still have to count on Zhuo Yang.
At this moment, Sforza felt a bit tragic.
Not far away, the England dressing room was filled with joy. Southgate had no idea that he would beat the Chinese team 3:0 at halftime with such a Chinese New Year score.
Southgate is called "South Gate" not because his square head and big ears look like the South Gate of Watford, but because of the surname "southgate", south south, gate. The origin and meaning of the surname are probably the same.
China's 'Ximen', 'Dongguo' and the like are similar.
Although England has advanced all the way to the semi-finals this year, except for the 6:1 against the weak team Nama in the group, they have played very stumblingly in other games. Especially after entering the knockout rounds, they basically rely on set pieces to score, which is not the case.
Like a thief.
The unexpected success of the Chinese team wiped away the arrogance of the South Gate official who lost to Croatia. He happily gave verbal praise to every player who played. The three Manchester City players who scored were simply cute Teletubbies.
Delph, Sterling, Stones, and Manchester City's three players each scored a goal. Today can be the 'Blue Moon Day' for the England national team. Kyle Walker, who did not start, was jealous and kept teasing the south gate with his eyes:
Fuck me, fuck me~
The 48-year-old Gareth Southgate has a very simple career as a professional footballer. He made his debut at Crystal Palace, spent his peak years at Villa, spent his later years with Middlesbrough, and retired in the summer of 2006.
Twenty-two years ago in the summer of 1996, Tony Adams, the team captain of South Gate, served as a central defender in the 3:0 match between England and China. It was his first start in the national team. With his tough defensive style,
Southgate, who is known for his technical roughness, played the most elegant game of his career that day.
In the 2005-06 Premier League season, in fact, the 36-year-old Nanmen was still the main central defender of Middlesbrough. It was not time to retire yet. However, at the end of the season, Middlesbrough coach McLaren took charge of England, and no one was willing to do so.
Take over the coaching job at Middlesbrough.
Therefore, Nanmen, who had no coaching qualifications, took up the coaching position as a player and interim coach, effectively retiring. Three years later, Nanmen took Middlesbrough to the English Championship, and they did not do well in the Championship either.
Got fired.
Then he went to coach England U21, and the results were also not good. In September 2016, Three Lions coach Sam Allardyce was fired due to scandal. For a while, no one was willing to take over the England national team. Southgate
Became the lucky one again.
Southgate, who always wears a waistcoat and tie on the sidelines, is old-school and nostalgic in his clothing, but his football philosophy is very fashionable. The latest trend in football in the past two years, the 3-5-2 double wing-back tactic, is his favorite.
Therefore, England's tactics are basically a replica of Tottenham's. Kane, Alli, Trippier, Rose, Dier, including Tottenham's old player Walker, all do the work of Tottenham in the national team.
Sterling is Son Heung-min, Lingard is Eriksen and Henderson is Moussa Dembélé.
In the tactical details of Sforza's 4-3-2-1 or 4-4-2, the midfielder positions in parallel, the winger moves in to the attacking midfielder, and the center virtualizes the strategy. In fact, it can be used as a 3-5 with two wing-backs.
-2, achieved good results against Colombia and Chile in the warm-up matches, and against Peru in the group stage.
But again, who made the golden cudgel that has always been the Dinghaishen needle become a shit stick today? If it were not for the great number '18' on the back, that guy would have become China's leader in just these 45 minutes.
The biggest traitor in football history.
