While the transfer was going on, Li Bin's commentary was still going on. With the end of the World Cup group stage, most of his commentary came true. Neither France nor Italy escaped bad luck, and suffered early losses in the group stage.
Being eliminated can be regarded as fulfilling Li Bin's evaluation of them.
"France has nothing to do. They even dare to lose to China in a friendly match, so what do they expect from them? Italy... Lippi is a little too conservative."
Italy actually has some strength, but Lippi is too conservative and still believes in old players like Cannavaro. He would rather use Cannavaro and Nesta than give Palmieri and others a chance.
, allowing Italy to lose in the end.
"Lippi has some abilities. If we talk about tactics and on-the-spot command, he may be almost the best coach in the world." When talking about this issue, Li Bin also felt a little regretful about his evaluation. "
It's a pity that he placed too much trust in the old players, and he just caught up with the Italian youth.
He refuses to pick up the ball, refuses to use the young Palmieri and Rossi, and his core player Pirlo is injured. What else can he do? What's more, Paraguay and New Zealand are in a state of being unable to retreat, so what can we do to them?
What should we do? Lippi has a problem with playing like this, but we can't blame him entirely."
Li Bin still had some affection for Lippi, although he didn't know why Lippi refused to use Rossi and the others - in his own memory, he didn't even recruit Rossi, although he did in this world.
Rossi, however, also refused to be reused. Players such as Cannavaro, Iaquinta, and Marchetti were given unlimited trust by him, and in the end they had no choice but to be eliminated.
By this time, the group stage has all ended, and some of Li Bin's predictions have been fulfilled. Li Bin's purpose of gaining reputation through this was achieved, but he wanted to use this to gain recognition from the national team.
Another purpose that I attached great importance to was not achieved.
Although Li Bin is now famous and the whole world wants to get more from Li Bin, the National Football Team, which Li Bin took the initiative to send a training plan, has yet to make any noise. As for Li Bin's statement
, they just said that they could consider it, and then there were no other words. Until now, they have been indifferent, which also made Li Bin a little dissatisfied.
Regarding the national football team, he was still a bit optimistic. Even if the knockout rounds started, there was no reaction from the national football team. For them, some things are more important than strength.
Li Bin knew this in his heart, but he also knew what to do to break the reserve of the national football team. As a commentator at the World Cup, it is not difficult to react. Since these guys don't understand
If they are nice, then give them a few whips.
The elimination of France and Italy made Li Bin's prediction more credible. On the other hand, England's encounter with Germany also made Li Bin's prediction more accurate.
Reaching the top 16 of the World Cup is a good thing in theory. Unfortunately, it is difficult for England to accept this situation. Especially when they met Germany in the first game, they were quite dissatisfied because other teams
In the first game of the team, none of the opponents were so strong, except for the Spanish opponents.
Except for Portugal, which is pretty good, the other teams encountered mediocre opponents, which also made England very dissatisfied with Li Bin's prediction - if they ranked first in the group, the first game
Playing against Ghana and Uruguay in the second game, from the English point of view, this is simply the rhythm of a walk-off to the semi-finals.
"England has actually taken Li Bin's words seriously. Their newspaper reprinted Li Bin's statement, and they also asked their players to work harder during the game to 'shut up the Chinese'. However, they still couldn't win.
Game, now Rooney has been scolded thoroughly, I'm afraid he also hates you..."
"What's the use of him hating me? It's better for him to work hard on his own." When watching the game between Germany and England, Li Bin just smiled and said, "In the final analysis, these guys in England still have to work hard if they don't play well."
It doesn’t matter what other people said.”
The game between England and Germany was a game that Li Bin paid more attention to. Because in this game, Germany did not use Neuer in the starting lineup, but used Adler. Because this game in my memory was quite interesting, Li Bin also
I'd like to know if doing this would make any difference.
Sure enough, the situation was different from what he remembered. Germany scored first, and then England equalized. This was similar to what he remembered. However, after the two sides played 1-1, Lampard successfully scored with a long shot.
After winning the ball, the game became 2-1!
This goal made England fans excited: England leads Germany in the World Cup. This is a very rare moment!
"Lampard's first World Cup goal in his life... What a lucky goal." After seeing this goal, Li Bin also whispered a comment that others could not understand. The goalkeeper was not Neuer.
It was Adler who prevented the ball from being misjudged. In the first half of the game, England actually led Germany and entered the locker room with a 2-1 advantage.
England led Germany at half-time, which is a huge advantage. Unfortunately, in the second half, England once again played in a mess. After finally taking the lead, they immediately became impatient in the second half, eager to make achievements.
The England team lost their composure and were immediately suppressed by the German team in the game.
"The players of the England team are not without strength, but it is a pity that their tactical execution ability is far behind when playing against the Germans..." Li Bin also lamented this, "The Germans fell behind, but they were still able to fight back.
, were still able to play football, but England, who were ahead of the game, were too impatient and unable to play well. This was not a technical failure, but a complete failure in execution ability."
In Li Bin's sigh, England conceded a goal in the second half, and another goal in overtime. They lost a big score directly in the game and bid farewell to this World Cup.
Of course, countries such as South Korea, Ghana, Mexico, Chile, Slovakia, Japan, and Portugal have bid farewell to the World Cup one after another.
There seems to be nothing strange about the departure of these countries. The only thing that is surprising is that Spain's match against Portugal was a 1-0 victory - Spain played four games in the World Cup, one was a draw, and the remaining
All three games were 1-0, which also made people believe that Spain really wanted to carry out the wretchedness to the end in this competition.
"In fact, there is nothing surprising. They are technically proficient. However, the altitude of South Africa, coupled with the climate problem, has a great impact on them. It is not a home game, which is quite difficult. Del Bosque is not stupid.
How can you not play obscenely and honestly?"
Li Bin's evaluation of Spain has made many people look at Spain with admiration. This team played quite well in the World Cup. If it were before, people would think that a team like Spain could win consecutive 1-0 games.
It was a very poor performance, but now, people have examined whether Spain can really be regarded as playing well.
At the same time, another thing is also very noticeable: Japan and South Korea both failed in the top 16, which also made people sigh with emotion.
"Isn't it possible for our Asian teams to be comparable in strength to those in Europe and the United States?" In this regard, Duan Xuan also raised his own question, "Japan has actually made great progress in playing football now, but why can't they win against Paraguay?
Woolen cloth?"
He didn't ask South Korea because South Korea's opponent was Uruguay - Li Bin was optimistic about Uruguay and he knew it, so he simply asked Japan directly.
"The strength of Japan and South Korea is first-rate in Asia and East Asia, but in the world, it is only at the level of the top 16. Asian football is not actually of a very high standard. In recent years, Asian teams have only competed locally.
They haven’t won past the knockout rounds, let alone competing with Europe and the United States. Everyone in Africa has
There is a top eight team that is stable every time. In fact, the level of Japan and South Korea is not that high. I won’t say that South Korea’s level is declining now. As for Japan, there is no midfielder on the right side. Their playing style is completely
They are blasting hard on both sides, which looks good, but the actual threat is really limited."
"But they will still win if they encounter us."
"That's because we are too weak. Our strength has not improved at all over the years, but has declined. Do you know how low our football level has fallen?" Li Bin smiled bitterly at this, "Let me put it simply.
Let’s investigate: the current domestic physical fitness standards are similar to those at the turn of the century - and they are not suitable for the world-class teams at the turn of the century, but are similar to those at the turn of the century.
The teams in West Asia are similar. In the 1990s, we were able to bully West Asia with our bodies. Now, they can bully us with their bodies. Technically speaking, our country's technical training level is basically limited compared to India.
In this situation, who should we kick? It is true that they are weak, but that is for a world-class team. They are very weak. But when they encounter us, they will abuse them casually."
Li Bin's words were also made in response to the fact that the Chinese Football Association has been unwilling to give him a formal reply during this period. He knows that many people have always had some illusions about Chinese football, thinking that although the strength of Chinese football is
It's very weak, but it's just a little worse than Japan and South Korea, and it's still a second-rate team in Asia - at least that's what a certain defender who played at Manchester City insisted. However, Li Bin directly exposed this window paper and told them
, what is their strength.
"In the 1990s, when we met Japan and South Korea, we had some headaches and the record was at a disadvantage, but there was no chance. However, now, let alone Japan and South Korea, even if we play against Indonesia, Malaysia will definitely win.
? It’s not impossible for India to defeat us in a few years.”
Regarding the silence of the Football Association, Li Bin also decided to drop a bombshell. He knew that no matter how loudly he made a fuss in Europe, the Chinese side might ignore it, so the way he thought of was to simply let them know that they
How much difference is there now?
What he said is not a lie anyway: the strength of the national football team is really just that, and it will be possible to lose to the second team of Thailand in the future, and the lower limit has long been gone.
Moreover, he not only has to peel off this layer of window paper, but also needs to make another cut.
"When I returned to China this year, I actually had one task: the club wanted me to develop the East Asian market and let me see if there were any suitable players in East Asia who could be hired. But in China, I looked for
I searched for a long time but couldn't find it, but I have taken a fancy to a Japanese player - next season, maybe there will be a Japanese in my team."
"Isn't this possible?"
Both commentators were stunned by Li Bin's words. The Champions League champion brought in a Japanese, and it was a Chinese coach who bought a Japanese? This seemed incredible.
And this is exactly what Li Bin wants: to use Japan to put pressure on the national football team.
