ball at foot

After other things were settled, Zhao Yaning did not forget, and took the time to call Alizee to say hello.

"I heard about you winning the championship." Alizee was in a good mood, "However, can't you come back? Are you going to play in the Olympics?"

"Yes, the game on August [-], against Portugal."

Zhao Yaning responded, which aroused Alizee's dissatisfaction, "The doctor said that I will probably give birth this month, but you still want to go out to play football... Are you going too far?"

Zhao Yaning could only explain with a wry smile, "If it's a club game, a money-making game, I won't play. But this is a national team game after all, I'm not good..."[

"Okay, I don't want to hear complaints." Alizee quickly interrupted him, "You only have football in your eyes, and I will never be the first. I can bear it, but I don't want my son to suffer from football in the future." Qi, if you don't take time to accompany your son in the future, you will be fine."

Is it so troublesome for pregnant women to be emotional?Zhao Yaning didn't know what to say, so he could only offer a few words of comfort.

"Since you don't even have your son for this shitty competition, then at least give me the medal back when you come back, okay?" After saying a few words, Alizee made a condition, "In the future I can Take it and educate your son, 'Your father didn't care about your birth just for this thing'..."

"If you keep talking like this, I won't even dare to win..." Zhao Yaning wryly smiled.

"Can you win? I don't know the Chinese team. I only know that you just won the Asian Cup. Do you think you can win the Olympics?"

Zhao Yaning didn’t know this question either.

In a competition like the Olympics, after all, there is no fixed number of strengths or weaknesses.Many strong teams simply dismiss the Olympics and will not send good players to the Olympics.Germany has not played in the Olympic Games since the 90s, and France has a reasonable attitude towards this game, while Brazil and Argentina have never cared about the Olympic Games. For example, this time, the Brazilian team did not qualify.If you say that Brazil does not have enough players of the right age who are good enough, no one will believe it, but they lost, so what can they say?

In this kind of competition, it is normal for a weak country to defeat a strong country.For example, in 2000, the champion Cameroon defeated Spain to win the championship. Spain, represented by Barcelona player Xavi, was extremely strong in Europe, but lost to the African players headed by Eto'o.And even this Chinese Olympic team has played against the Brazilian Olympic team. Zhao Yaning was not in it, but with the level of other people, he did not fall behind in the confrontation with the Brazilian Olympic team with Kaka. Feng, from the scenes, he didn't suffer from any performance, and it seemed like a dream when he said it.

And more, the history of the Olympic Games going forward is more of a joke. Not to mention the 96 Olympics, the Brazil team, which has Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Carlos, Bebeto, Juninho, Dida, Zemaria and others, is known as the strongest Olympic team in history. It was even cut by Japan 1-0, and it is really hard to figure out how they played.

Because football powers despise this honor, in many cases, even weak football countries can fight back and get good results.But sometimes, in this kind of Olympic Games, the enemy will be abnormally strong, and even make people feel a sense of confrontation: for example, in the 1952 Olympics, the Hungarian Olympic team sent a representative team, and two years later, in 1954 The Hungarian national team in the World Cup was almost a team-the same Hungary that beat all opponents in the world at that time, and was defeated by West Germany in the World Cup final with doping.

And football is a sport, once the age is restricted, it will be difficult to be interesting.After all, the Olympic Games and the league are in conflict. It is difficult for many teams' overage players to find strong players. Most of them are under the age of 23. In football games, there is a big problem. After all, it is difficult to have a strong defense.

Defense requires far more experience than offense, which is why defenders mature much later than strikers.And restricting the age, this also allows some talented offensive players to have a lot of room to play, while those defensive players will suffer a lot.After all, the offensive end of football always takes the initiative. A talented attacker has more advantages than a talented defender.

Zhao Yaning feels that the strength of this year’s Chinese National Olympics is still acceptable.After all, half of the guys from the National Olympics are members of the national team, and they are not worried about playing against some u23 teams.If you encounter a season where other teams are not strong enough, then it is possible to rush to the end: after all, the pressure on the Chinese team for the Olympic Games is not ordinary.But if you really meet a strong and terrifying opponent, then you will be in big trouble.If I really meet a team like 1952 Hungary, no matter how hard I try, it will be difficult to win.

What makes him even more frustrated is that because most of these teams are young people, even if he wants to prepare some materials, he has to worry about insufficient materials.

However, according to some information collected by Zhao Yaning himself, there should not be such a perverted team in this Olympic Games.

The European teams that qualified for the Olympic Games this time are Serbia, Italy, Portugal and the host Greece.Germany, France, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands failed to qualify for the finals.The finalists from South America are Mexico, Paraguay, Argentina and Costa Rica, South Korea, China and Iraq from Asia, and Mali, Morocco, Ghana and Tunisia from Africa.Australia, of course, is Australia.

Of the few teams in Europe, only the Italian team is a football powerhouse.But the Italian Olympic team does have a lot of problems.The Italian team originally wanted Totti, Cassano and Buffon to participate in the Olympics as overage players, but Rome was unwilling to send Totti and Cassano, the two pillars of the team, but gave Ferrari and Pellizzoli two people , Juventus refused to let people go, and in the end the Italian Football Association could only give in one step, or poach people from Milan, and let Milan send Pirlo to play in the Olympics.And the Italian Olympic team really has no talents. Their biggest name is the local top scorer Gilardino who played for Parma, and then there are Chiellini, Barzagli, De Rossi and other backcourt players. .

Such a lineup is actually relatively strong in the Olympic Games.

And this Portuguese team has no one available.Figo, Rui Costa deco and others all refused to participate in the Olympic Games, and this Portuguese Olympic team, except for Fernando Meera who played for Stuttgart, Mott played for Fulham, Viana played for Newcastle, and little Except for Ronaldo who played for Manchester United, the others are all players in the Portuguese Super League.And because most of them played for Benfica and Porto, that is to say, most of these people are substitutes-at least, Zhao Yaning has heard of only one Bosingwa. [

Regardless of the fact that Greece relied on the host's advantage to get the right to qualify, Serbia's state is not much better than that of Greece, and there are no really famous players.

On the contrary, it was a few teams in South America that made Zhao Yaning feel that their strength was quite good.Paraguay and Mexico have always had a tradition of strong youth teams, and this time the Argentine team is known as the strongest team—both vertically and horizontally.

Argentina's head coach this time is a level above everyone else: their Olympic team coach is Bielsa, who is known as a madman.And in the selection of overage players, they unexpectedly chose the three guards of Samuel, Ayala and Heinze, and Zhao Yaning also had to admit that none of these three guards was easy to deal with...

On the midfield line, although they did not recruit the previously rumored Riquelme and Aimar, they also have Mascherano, D'Alessandro, Luis Gonzalez, Kiley Gonzalez There are a lot of strong players, and above the forwards, they also have Carlos Tevez and Saviola, a local and a two major forwards in Europe.

Regarding this kind of arm, Zhao Yaning also admitted that if they really want to win, it will be really difficult for them to deal with these guys...

Speaking of which, the few teams in Africa are not too strong.Among Mali, Morocco, Tunisia, and Ghana, only Tunisia is a strong team in Africa. Ghana and Mali are slightly inferior, and Morocco is even worse.Other strong African teams, such as Cameroon and Nigeria, failed to appear.But speaking of them, Sissoko in the Mali team and Essien in the Ghana team can be regarded as old acquaintances of Zhao Yaning.

This is almost the same as the opponent's profile.And looking back at his Olympic team, although this year's Olympic team has been praised as the "Super Platinum Generation", and some people even praised them as not losing to the national team, Zhao Yaning still knew their strength in his heart of.He doesn't understand other things, such as aura, consciousness, intelligence, and willpower. He may be misjudged, but he can still see at a glance how good his technical ability is and how good he is at touching and catching the ball.Compared with the older generation of players in the national team, these guys are not 01:30 points behind.

But even so, this is a team that can play and try.On the front line, Daewoo, Qu Bo, the midfield line, myself, Yan Song, Zhao Hongri, Hu Zhaojun, Zhou Haibo, Sun Xiang and Du Wei on the back line are not bad, plus the veterans Datou and Sun Jihe , Such a lineup is not bad.

The media's loud words can't change their lack of technical level.

People say that knowing yourself and your enemy is a hundred battles, but now you don't know yourself or your enemy, so the outcome is unpredictable...

Big deal, I gave him the God of Heaven card.Zhao Yaning said harshly in his heart.

Regardless of what Alizee said, he also has a reason why he must win: he has won the Triple Crown now, and the national team has also won the Asian Cup. With such a result, it may be difficult for him to have a second time in his life In the history of football for so many years, how many times have there been a total of three crowns?It is the first time for China to win the Asian Cup. I can't ask for such an opportunity.

And when his reputation and influence reached the peak, it happened to be a good time for him and the domestic Football Association and the General Administration of Sports to make demands.But at this time, only by sending a big gift to the General Administration of Sports, can they nod to the matter of talent reform.

In the Olympic Games, I have to win.

"Don't worry, Lily, since I went to this competition, the champion must be mine."
