Green Dragon

Chapter 588

The light rain hit his face.

Camacho was sitting on the coach's bench, and he looked towards the field with blank eyes, full of the shadow of himself coaching Real Madrid back then.

They are all white jerseys, and they are also disobedient, but now those Chinese players wearing white jerseys...he can't even say a few names!

It's not his fault, because his head coach job is almost a display!

He became the easiest one among the 32 participating teams!
He doesn't need to go to various stadiums to observe the state of the international footballers, he doesn't need to draw up a big list, he doesn't need to study tactics, he doesn't need to line up troops, he doesn't need to boost morale, he doesn't need to discuss major issues with the football team, and he doesn't need to contribute to the development of Chinese football. He doesn't even need to know the players under him to give advice and suggestions!
You only need to sit on the coaching bench a dozen times a year, and each time you only need to watch 90 minutes of low-level games, you can get a salary of millions of euros. Such a job...is really enviable!
Unfortunately, the Chinese Football Association is unwilling to renew his contract, and his contract will expire after the World Cup.

Such a good life can only be enjoyed for this month.

what a shame!
-
Just as Camacho was complaining, Côte d'Ivoire's first offensive had entered the Chinese team's half.

Africa rarely produces teams with delicate skills. The mainstream tactics of most African teams are a group of rough guys relying on their bodies to attack, and the Chinese team is actually not too afraid of this style.

But Côte d'Ivoire, known as the "African Elephant", is a little different. They changed their inherent impression in the past and even played control football!

Perhaps such a turnaround, however, is not too surprising given that their head coach is a French football legend...

In Long Shute's career, his favorite is the enthusiastic and unrestrained French coach!

Therefore, the Chinese team's midfield defense line shrunk back unceremoniously, and gave the wide court to the Ivorian players to practice passing...

They surrounded the 30-meter area of ​​the Chinese team, looked at the dense white figures in the penalty area, and couldn't find a way to attack. Although Yaya Toure was on the scene to dispatch and direct, they expected the group of teammates to play Barcelona, ​​Manchester City with him. The cooperation, that is definitely a fantasy.

What's more... In front of Yaya Toure, there was a Chinese who caused him a psychological shadow!
Captain China, No. [-]... Long Shute!
-
When seeing Long Shute pounce on him, Yaya Toure's heart was pounding.

He wants to convince himself: "This is the national team, not the club, and the national team's Long Shute is nothing, just like the national team's Ronaldo and Messi are nothing to be afraid of", but his body is obviously the most honest of.

As soon as Long Shute was within two meters of him, Yaya Toure kicked the ball to Kalu who was not far away.

He has played against Long Shute six times-Barcelona twice, Manchester City four times-and he was defeated every time, and his team was also ruthlessly eliminated by his opponent. possible.

But he seems to have forgotten that Kalu, who once played for Chelsea... was also taught to be a man by Long Shute!

When seeing Long Shute turn around and rush towards him, Kalu staggered and fell directly into the mud pit!

Right beside him, Hao Junmin, the right forward of the Chinese team, quickly snatched the ball under his feet, and then dribbled forward.

As soon as he took a step, he felt a murderous aura coming from the side. He flicked his ankle and passed the football!
He almost forgot... In this national team, he doesn't have the right to stick to the ball!
-
Yaya Toure was frightened and restless, Kalou was frightened and fell down, and the midfielder of Côte d'Ivoire was almost in an undefended state. Longshut, who received the pass, almost pushed across the center circle all the way.

Kolo Toure was absent due to injury, and Zokola, who replaced him, is also 34 years old, and the player who played as a guest defender is a defensive midfielder, so he is not too tall. His height...only 1.7 meters eight.

Long Shute unceremoniously picked the ball and passed people directly, making this football veteran who was ten years older than him, who had played for Sevilla, Tottenham and other teams, face under the eyes of fans all over the world All lost!
When Long Shute passed through the defense of Côte d'Ivoire and pushed the football into the dead corner of the goal, even he himself couldn't believe it...he scored his first goal in this World Cup so easily!
In less than 3 minutes, the Chinese team opened the scoring!
-
"1-0! Long Shute opened the scoring for the first time!"

Duan Yixuan's bluffing voice echoed in every TV set:
"This goal is not just a simple and ordinary goal. This is the first time Chinese football has scored a goal in the World Cup! This is a goal worth a thousand gold and a commemorative goal! "

His partner in the commentary was Zhu Guanghu, the former head coach of the national team, and he muttered to himself:
"The goal went in so fast, I didn't react at all!"

Those fans who heard him explain the opening ceremony suddenly complained:

"Director Zhu, you better shut up!"

"Anyone turn down the TV volume with me?"

"I'd rather watch the Japanese commentary!"

"Director Zhu, do you know any other commentary besides 'Oh, oh, oh,', 'Put it in,' and 'Cum, cum'?"
-
Relying on domineering side leakage to score a goal, Long Shute knew that this was just a coincidence.

Although Yaya Toure is not a strong-willed player, he has been a top midfielder in football for a long time. He will not always behave like this...

Sure enough, when the game restarted, Côte d'Ivoire took a few minutes to adjust itself, and the players' attention gradually became concentrated.

Under the leadership of Yaya Toure, they continued to attack, but the Chinese team, which relied on luck to score a goal, chose to retreat and defend more resolutely. Even the forward Gao Lin turned into a defensive midfielder, and even retreated to the front of the penalty area. Confront Yaya Toure, then fall to the ground screaming...

The referees from South America are not as strict as their European counterparts, because the style of South American football is still relatively repulsive to physical confrontation, so the Chinese team has received a lot of care. 30 minutes before the game, two players from Côte d’Ivoire had already had physical movements. Large and respectively received a yellow card.

I want to thank the head coach of the opponent for insisting on trying to penetrate the ground in the rain, and I also want to thank Ramsey for pressing Drogba on the bench, otherwise the old Warcraft will definitely be able to fight wantonly on top of Feng Xiaoting and Li Weifeng...

The mentality of the Ivorian players who had been unable to attack for a long time gradually changed, and the head coach's tactical arrangement was also left behind by them. Yaya Toure led his players to try long-range shots.

"Toure blasts from a distance!"

"oops!"

"Kalu shoots in the far corner!"

"Shoot!"

"Gervinho shoots from a zero angle!"

"You inserted it! Oh, oh, oh!"

……

The sports channel's complaint phone line was about to explode in the first half, and everyone was furious and demanded that the national football star be removed from the field.

Not only did he not provide any professional analysis for the game, but he couldn't even complete a complete commentary, and he just made noise blindly. What's more serious...he seemed very anxious about Côte d'Ivoire's mad attack!This is simply standing on the opposite side of the 13 billion people!

So when the game lasted for 40 minutes, only Duan Yixuan's voice was left on the TV.

Côte d'Ivoire's mad attack finally slowed down. No matter how good the Africans' physical fitness is, they are still earthlings, they still have to breathe air, and their bodies still have blood flowing.

Every second of the whole game was in active running, that was Long Shute, not Côte d'Ivoire...

Every time he participates in an important game in the national team, Long Shute's running distance will increase significantly:

If it is said that in the Bayern period, his average running distance was about 11000 meters, then in Milan, because he had to take on more tasks, this data would increase by 1500-2000 meters, but in the Chinese team, 15000 meters for him It's just commonplace...

He has never been a guy who loves his country especially and can give everything for fame. He is just a relatively common, occasionally rebellious young man.But when he put on that battle robe, he suddenly began to enjoy this feeling of turning the tide.

He tried his best to overtake the head coach and support the national team by himself, just to see what level his ability can reach? !

"Boom!"

Kalu fell on the corner flag area, and he looked at the Chinese full-back in front of him with some annoyance.

In the physical confrontation... he didn't have much advantage, and was blocked by a Chinese player forcibly!
Duan Yixuan let out a cheer:
"Beautiful! Zhang Linpeng's defense this time is very good! He was not swayed by Kalou! The Chinese team successfully resisted another attack from Côte d'Ivoire!"

After completing the defense, the Chinese defense did not kick the ball out of the sideline as it did in the previous 45 minutes, but there was a little change.

Feng Xiaoting suddenly drives forward with the ball!
The remaining three defenders Li Weifeng, Li Xuepeng, and Zhang Linpeng shrunk to fill their positions, while the two wide midfielders Yu Hanchao and Hao Junmin retreated at the same time, forming a back line of five defenders, and the two midfielders Zhao Xuri and Zheng Zhi blocked it. A huge gap was created for Feng Xiaoting's side.

This change was obviously beyond the expectations of the Ivorian players, because they never expected that at this time, a central defender of the Chinese team would dare to dribble out of his penalty area!

They have a very detailed understanding of the Chinese team's information. This guard, who doesn't look tall or strong, is also called "Sister Ting" in their country. He is obviously a bitch!
How dare he dribble? !
Yaya Toure hesitated for a moment, but still didn't post it.

If in the club, Toure occasionally has to do some dirty work, then now in the national team, as the core of the midfielder, he completely disdains to work hard to defend...

What's more, he still has to deal with Long Shute!

Only such a trump card is worthy of me, Yaya Toure, to deal with!

Why?What about Long Shute?

Yaya Toure hurriedly turned his head, only to find that at some point, the Chinese captain was already more than ten meters away, even on the same level as Zokola!
Damn!

Feng Xiaoting made a long pass!
Long Shute was offside!

Zokola, who is less than 1.8 meters tall, has no way to stop this over-the-top pass!
And at the age of 34... it is impossible for him to catch up with Long Shute, who was the first to start!

Sitting on the bench, Drogba couldn't help closing his eyes.

Seconds later, he heard loud sighs from his teammates around him.

What followed was a live broadcast from above the pitch:
"In the 43rd minute, the Chinese team scored a goal. The scorer, No. 8...Long Shute!"
