Chapter 52 Keep State

"You performed very eye-catchingly today, and you won the best player of the game after the game. What do you think of the team's performance?" A reporter interviewed Kong Pengyu after the game.

In the end, the Olympic team defeated the New Zealand Olympic team 3:1 and won the warm-up match in March.Kong Pengyu, who shot and passed in the game, won the honor of the best player in the game after the game, and was called by the team leader for an interview.

"Eh..." Kong Pengyu was still speechless. This was the first time he faced this kind of situation. He was not very used to being served by a few long guns and short cannons. But if he wanted to score a goal in front of the camera to celebrate, he would no problem.

"The team performed very well." Kong Pengyu said the answer he had thought about for a long time: "Everyone performed very well."

"What else?" The reporter asked patiently, thinking that Kong Pengyu might have other views on the game.

"Gone."

The reporter was amused by Kong Pengyu's straightforward answer, and continued to ask: "Then what do you think of your own performance?"

"It's okay, I play very comfortably, nothing else, just play comfortably." Kong Pengyu expressed his feelings very straightforwardly.

"Then what kind of expectations do you have for you and the team?" The reporter still asked tirelessly.

"Well, I don't know yet." Kong Pengyu realized that he might be wrong, so he added: "Then, I hope everyone on the team can maintain a good state and continue to win."

"Ok, alright, Thanks."

"I have a problem! I have a problem!" Several reporters wanted to ask him questions.

……

After more than ten minutes of interviews, Kong Pengyu finally escaped from the reporter's "occupied area" and boarded the team's return bus.

"You are really good today." Xu Jundao reserved a seat for him so that he could sit with him when he came up.

"It's okay," Kong Pengyu said, "isn't it the same as usual?"

"I said, do you understand modesty?" Someone knocked on his head from behind, and he turned to look. It turned out to be Wu Shenglong who didn't play today, and he heard the conversation between Xu Jundao and Kong Pengyu.

"If I didn't play today, you wouldn't have the chance to perform." Wu Shenglong prefers to joke, and he just picked up Kong Pengyu to make fun of him.

Kong Pengyu smiled awkwardly, it wasn't Wu Shenglong's joke, but Wu Shenglong's familiarity made him a little uncomfortable.

"But he really played well, I think he played well." Bai Liqing in the front seat also joined the small team of everyone talking, and repeatedly said that Kong Pengyu played well, "To be honest, you played well in this game. Really good."

"If you keep talking like this, Kong Pengyu will swell." Meng Hezhou, who was sitting next to Bai Liqing, said, "Maybe if you give him a ball now, he will show you some skills."

Amid everyone's ridicule, the bus started and headed back to Ludao Training Center.

Kong Pengyu smiled like a child in everyone's words. This feeling made him very comfortable. He didn't have to please anyone or accommodate anyone, and he could say whatever he wanted.

He remembered the time when he was arranged to work as a summer job in his uncle's company.Although it is a summer job, what I do is almost a formal job, and I will always be forced to suppress my character, do things I don't want to do, and say things I don't want to say.

In the past few years of playing football, he hasn't thought much about the unpleasant things he did before, but he has never completely forgotten them, and today he suddenly remembered them.

Probably because he knows what a terrible feeling it is to embarrass himself!At this time, when I think of those things in the past, it is to use the present happiness to wash away the past unhappiness.

In the laughter and laughter along the way, they returned to the Ludao Training Center and went back to their respective rooms to rest.

In the afternoon of the second day, after completing the recovery training, the players were arranged to watch the video of the game in the meeting room of the Ludao Training Center and study the tactics of the next game.

"Our opponent in the next game will be the North Korean U23 team. What we want to watch today are some of their highlights from the past few years, and some highlights of their games in the past year." Lu Jingshan stood in front of the projection screen and talked about today s arrangement.

"Let's watch a section first, and everyone will analyze it while watching me." He stepped back and turned on the projector with the remote control panel.

In the picture projected by the projector, the players are entering the field, which looks like a match between North Korea U23 and Japan U23.

In this video, the Japanese team has long occupied the ball possession advantage and the initiative, and surrounded the North Korean team members in the penalty area many times.

From the point of view of the formation, the North Korean team played a 541 formation from the beginning, and took the initiative to give up the ball to the Japanese team.

In this picture, the midfielder on the right side of North Korea cut off the ball from the opponent's offensive player, and was about to launch a counterattack. He wanted to return it to the players behind him, and then he could accelerate forward to open up a certain space, but he didn't notice it when he passed it. The Japanese players who followed from the side gave the opponent a chance instead.

The player of the Japanese team accelerated forward when he got the ball, and passed it to the player in the middle. The player took the ball into the penalty area, easily pushed the far corner, and scored the ball steadily.

Then came the second video, this time the North Korean team's opponent should be Portugal's U23 team.

The North Korean team still adopts the 541 formation, but in this video, the Portuguese U23 team's pass and cut cooperation level is by no means common among Asian teams of the same level. From the point of view of the score, the North Korean team is already three goals behind, and the opponent The attack has once again threatened their goal.

The situation in the next few videos is mostly similar. Although the North Korean team adopted a defensive formation, they just couldn’t defend against their opponents, and most of them were Asian teams.

"This is the previous game of the North Korean team. The formation is 541. They value defense very much, but they can't play offense." Lu Jingshan pressed the timeout. The method and tactical style have been improved, and the team's performance has been greatly improved."

The play continues, and now there is another match between North Korea U23 and Japan U23. In the screen, the North Korean team steals the ball and gets a chance to counterattack, this time on the right side of the backcourt.

After that player steals the ball, a midfielder near him sprints down the middle of the pitch to give him a passing spot.

He passed the ball to this player, and this player transitioned the ball to the frontcourt on the other side, and several frontcourt players had frantically rushed towards the penalty area.

The movement of these players all started after the player on the right intercepted the ball. Finally, after three or four passes, the North Korean team successfully scored.

In the next video, the opponent is also the Portuguese U23 team they faced before. Of course, the players cannot be the same players as before.

The game was inseparable and the score was maintained at a tie. The North Korean team relied on tireless running and pressing to limit the forward attack of the Portuguese team.

Then there are European teams such as the Turkish U23 team, the Polish U23 team, etc. They seem to have reduced the number of matches with Asian teams.

"The current North Korean U23 team is called the 'New North Korea Team', and its style of play and formation are completely in accordance with the new 4231 of the senior team." Lu Jingshan stopped the video again, "Coach Gu Yong of the North Korean senior team and the U23 team Coach Kim Jin Se is a teacher-student relationship, and they jointly established this style of play."

"Although this 4231 style of play is not a balanced offense and defense, it also strengthens their defense and improves their offense." Lu Jingshan said, "Different from our country's new policy, in their new policy, the U23 team is quite So our national second team exists, and the players will rotate with the senior team."

"They have also increased the density of games against European teams, thereby reducing the lack of games between themselves and high-level teams."

"The purpose of this is to use their few resources and opportunities to exercise the players' abilities as much as possible, and also to ensure the game experience of excellent personnel."

"This game will be very difficult. We won't make too many changes to our general tactics. It's just that a few players in our midfield need to interfere more with them..."
