ball at foot

After losing 1-4 to Italy, the Chinese team also ended their World Cup journey.

"In this game, Zhao Yaning is the best player I have ever seen." After the game, Lippi also readily spoke to the media, "His breakthrough was the most exciting I have ever seen. A goal has been scored in the World Cup. Such a player deserves any praise. However, no matter how strong a person is, it is impossible to defeat a team, and now Italy needs a wonderful victory more than the Chinese team.”

Yes, Italy also needs a big victory to muster their courage.Before the World Cup, the match-fixing case lowered their morale a lot, and they won the game against Australia after stumbling.They need a victory to convince themselves that they are a strong team-in this sense, the Chinese team has contributed a lot to this World Cup. confidence.

"If even a team like Zhao Yaning can only score one goal against me-then I believe that my door is unbreakable with other people." Buffon also said in an interview that he In his opinion, although this goal is his first in the World Cup, he does not think it is a shame, "Such a goal is not a shame, but an honor. After many years, people will point to this goal Admiration, and at that time, I was also in people's eyes. When people praised his greatness, they also praised my excellence."

The Italian players are still very clear that when Zhao Yaning arrives, they are extremely threatening beasts. It is a pity that a lion leads a herd of sheep and can fight other animals, but when he encounters a group of well-trained, With well-founded advances and retreats, and a wolf with extremely clever command, the only way to go is failure. [

The media has a lot of opinions on this game: Zhao Yaning’s personal ability is simply stunned in several World Cup games, and his performances are more terrifying than the next, making people continue to marvel at him.However, Italy's dense defense like mountains and mountains still allowed Zhao Yaning to come out victorious.This situation also made many media sigh.

"Once upon a time, football was the most beautiful sport in the world. We have seen countless stars use their amazing ability to win every game for the team. We have seen Rossi and Marado Na, I have seen the confrontation between Baggio and Romario, Ronaldo and Zidane, and Haji and other amazing players. However, football has changed too much now. It has changed It is blunt, rigid, and dogmatic. This World Cup is full of iron and toughness, machinery and execution everywhere. Zhao Yaning is out, and the biggest bright spot in this World Cup has also disappeared. It has to be said that it is the World Cup sorrow!"

Now that the World Cup in Germany has been played, the playing styles of various national teams have also been presented.The style of track and field football is everywhere, making the German World Cup game seem excessively dull.In this World Cup, Zhao Yaning has continuously staged wonderful performances and has become the only bright spot. Now, his exit is also lamented.

This kind of statement casts a tragic color on the Chinese team's exit.Although, it is not so much the tragedy of the Chinese team as it is the tragedy of Zhao Yaning.

"The Italian team is much better than us." After the game, when interviewed, Zhao Yaning was naturally not very interested. "I hope they can achieve good results in this World Cup. At least, let us lose. Let's look decent..."

Although the results of the quarter-finals are not bad, Zhao Yaning was not very satisfied with anyone.After the game, he was not in the mood to stay in Germany to watch the rest of the game, but chose to return to China with the team.

However, although he himself was not satisfied with this result, others were very satisfied with this result.

"Zhaochao tried his best, but the weakness of the Chinese team cannot be reversed in a day. Zhao Yaning tried his best, but if Chinese football wants to be strong, it cannot rely on the strength of Zhao Yaning alone."

This is also the most commented by the Chinese team after the World Cup.In fact, except for Zhao Yaning himself, no one expressed dissatisfaction with Zhao Yaning’s performance in the game.

Most of the domestic media are the same. They are more aimed at Du Wei who was sent off and Liu Yufei who was poured four times, but they don't have too many accusations against Zhao Yaning, who is the core of the offense-on the one hand I dare not, but on the other hand, there is nothing to say.

Six goals in five games, two solo rides, one free kick and one corner kick, this kind of ball is enough to make people talk.

"Okay, you don't have to worry too much. With me here, you won't be in trouble." After the game, Zhao Yaning also had to say a few words of comfort to Liu Yufei and Du Wei.

They are the most responsible for the loss. Zhao Yaning can imagine that when they return to China, they will inevitably be criticized.Although it is said that the responsibility for conceding four goals in a single game is not entirely on the goalkeeper and defenders, but after all, they are important figures in the defense of the national team. Conceding four goals and sending off people, they must be indispensable Be responsible.

"I'm not worried about anything. Anyway, I won't be able to last the next time." Liu Yufei is quite open to this, "With that penalty kick, I won't worry about it for the rest of my life. But Du Wei, his The problem is much bigger than mine."

Although Zhao Yaning is very clear about Liu Yufei’s mentality: after returning this time, it is estimated that he will not have too many opportunities to enter the national team in the future: he is about the same age, and few Asian players have played for a long time.With the capital of winning a penalty shootout in the World Cup, he is already an absolute contribution to the national team.Although he lost four in the last game, he was not strong enough, and a defender was sent off in this game, so he was even less worried.

Zhao Yaning didn’t want to criticize him. In fact, he agreed with this idea: he did his best for the national team, even if he wanted to rest on the credit book and eat and drink, Zhao Yaning still supported it.If you want people to play football well, you have to give some benefits. You are perfect, and you can't ask others to be the best in everything.

As for Du Wei, Zhao Yaning also decided to protect him: He has indeed done his best. The thing about losing the ball is that he is not good enough, not that he has a bad attitude. blame him.

Until the team returned to China with the team and the team disbanded, Zhao Yaning always emphasized this point: this was not Du Wei’s mistake, and he should not be blamed.

"Then whose fault do you think this is?" After returning to China, Zhao Yaning also participated in the recording of a TV special program.What flattered Zhao Yaning was that what he participated in was not an ordinary football program, but a current affairs news commentary program. [

"I don't think anyone is responsible for this failure." Zhao Yaning said, "We tried our best, but our strength is really not good enough. The gap in strength is obvious. We did our best, but Italy is also not enough They have done their best. They are as hardworking and fighting as we are. We cannot beat them because of the difference in strength, not attitude. The difference in strength is because we have not played football for as long as them. The environment for playing football is not as good as them, and they pay more attention to football - there is no one responsible for these problems."

"But we might be able to do better if we try harder..."

"Football is a sport. A sport is a man of the Ming Dynasty who pays attention to skills and training. If you can beat a strong team with mental strength if you work hard, what skills do we need to train? This kind of thinking is bad, let's be honest. Actually, a little bit of kicking is good."

Zhao Yaning knew that some of what he said was just fantasy and it was difficult to realize, but he still wanted to say, “The real problem with football is that no one plays it. There is no need to worry about table tennis in our country. There are tables everywhere in the school. There are players everywhere. But football is not good. A few days ago, I heard people say that Juventus was relegated and could only rely on the youth training to play. They said that the Juventus youth team has different numbers. There are 17 teams in the upper echelon with 350 people. In some provinces we have, there are not so many people in any province. No one plays, how can they play well? They are all amateurs, and they can’t improve. It’s like playing chess. Every day Playing with bad chess will definitely get worse and worse. If I want to say that the development of football still needs to rely on increasing investment, increasing attention, and more people playing football, football can truly develop. "

Zhao Yaning knows that football is booming now, and he also hopes that he can rely on his fame to do something for the development of football.Even if one person goes to play football after listening to it, it is worth it.

Zhao Yaning thought so, so he said so.And after he came back, he talked to Zhang Yuan about it, but Zhang Yuan still didn't complain.

"You don't need to take the blame for him. He is naturally to blame for losing the game. No one wants to listen to what you said. The Football Association also needs a scapegoat. Investment or something, where can the Football Association get it? The Football Association is now Excuse you, don’t blame him, blame you. Now some people are saying, you are playing in Western Europe, you don’t dare to offend countries in the five major leagues, you only dare to play well against Togo and Ukraine , When I really met Italy, I deliberately pretended to be cowardly."

"Then what do they want from me? Going into five reversal games in one game?" Zhao Yaning asked rhetorically.

"Of course it's best to go crazy all the way to win the championship." Zhang Yuan smiled wryly, "People are so strange, knowing the impossible, the more they look forward to it. The more hope you give them, the more disappointed they will be." Big, such a big disappointment, you always have to find an outlet. At this time, if you don’t scold the players, who are you scolding? Liu Wei is scolded when you lose in basketball, and you scold the guards when you lose in football. At times like this, they should fight for you thunder."

Zhang Yuan still disagrees with Zhao Yaning's attitude.At times like this, everyone is looking for a scapegoat, why are you so stupid to take the blame for yourself?

"I am now the captain of the national team. This kind of problem should be my responsibility. I don't know what a good captain is, but a good captain is definitely not this kind of virtue. It is really because of such an accident. Players don’t play well because of their thoughts of being scolded. It’s fine if I couldn’t manage it before, but now that I can manage it, they don’t want to do it. I don’t care about guiding public opinion, but don’t give up all the little enthusiasm I have cultivated so hard. It's gone." Zhao Yaning shook his head and replied.

"Do you know how much trouble you have caused me? In order to prevent the media from pouring dirty water on you, I have to deal with them every day. I am tired enough. If you still mess around by yourself, I have to help them put out the fire."

"The media scolded me a lot?"

"Who dares? Now the whole country, who dares to scold you? I'm just in case."

Although he lost to Italy, as Zhang Yuan said, no one dared to say anything about Zhao Yaning's performance.He scored six goals and almost dominated all the attacks. He played the core role in the game to the fullest. The continuous personal performance is the most important reason why the Chinese team can go so far. Who is talking about Zhao Yaning? A bad word?

The current media, whether Chinese or foreign, are full of praise for Zhao Yaning.Even in the end, the Chinese team's loss was played up as a tragedy.

"The media has summed up a lot of firsts for you." Zhang Yuan is quite proud of this, "You are the first and the only one to score a penalty kick and a free kick in a World Cup. , with one corner kick each. You are also the first Asian to lead a team to the quarter-finals in the World Cup, and you still..."

"When will I become the player who leads the team to win the World Cup, tell me this again."

Zhang Yuan pursed his lips and was silent for a while, "There will be such a day, the road is still long, there will always be such a day."
