Chapter 104 I'm Slow and I Don't Know Why

At the end of halftime, the Chinese team fell behind 1:0. The live broadcast of CCAV5 switched back to the studio from the scene, and Wu Rui, the famous host of CCTV Five, and two guests appeared on the screen.

Wu Rui is considered a panacea in the commentary world, he can say a few words about any game, and the audience can see him in many sports competitions.

One of the two guests is CCTV's special commentator Xu Songming, who usually explains La Liga matches with Duan Xiang, and is one of CCTV's more reliable football commentators.

The other guest is a big deal.

Chen Changbin, a former international footballer, is a famous striker in Asia. Of course, some people call him the No. [-] striker in Asia.

This kind of statement only appeared in some nostalgic posts on some football forums at first, but as the national football striker talents were zeroed, this title became more and more popular among some fans who came from that era, causing a lot of controversy. Not to mention Japan, South Korea and other countries would never admit it, even many Chinese fans just took it as a joke.

But Chen Changbin seems to be very satisfied with this title, and often calls himself by it.

Although this gentleman was in the Chinese Premier League and the early days of the Chinese Super League, he did not achieve any important honors in his entire career. A runner-up in the Asian Cup and the top scorer in the Asian Cup are the pinnacle of his life.

Although he is retired now and has made great achievements in the business world, his football label has been deeply ingrained, and he often appears in the commentary of many important games, offering many golden sentences for the audience.

Wu Ruidao: "I have to say that there is still a gap in strength, but we are not completely without opportunities, such as the first shot, if Zhou Peng's shot can be a little more accurate, maybe we will not be so passive."

Xu Songming then said: "It was indeed a very good opportunity. Zhou Peng's mentality is still not calm enough. After all, it is the first time to participate in such an important competition. It is understandable that he is a little nervous."

"We can't blame him," Chen Changbin said. "The current Chinese football is like this. There may not be a few who can catch up with the ball just now. It is already very good that Zhou Peng can catch the ball and complete the shot."

"You can't say that," Xu Songming obviously had a different opinion, and he spoke very bluntly, "Zhou Peng's shooting skills are weak, and he still doesn't handle some details properly. He only has speed, and his overall strength is still far behind that of world-class forwards."

Chen Changbin disagreed, and said, "Speed ​​is the most important weapon for a striker. A striker who doesn't even have speed is a striker."

Seeing that something was wrong, Wu Rui quickly interjected, "For a striker, both shooting skills and speed are indispensable. When it comes to speed, Zhou Peng is naturally the first choice, but shooting skills are indeed his weakness. In comparison, Su Nian's shooting skills are stronger. The two can be regarded as complementary to each other."

"Su Nian is relatively balanced in all aspects, but he is still in the growth stage, especially in terms of shooting," Xu Songming said, "Chu Yang is the most perfect shooting skill."

"Chu Yang? The one in La Coruna?" Chen Changbin didn't know how long he had been isolated from the world, and he said two words that left the audience speechless. "There's been a lot of news recently. Has he made it to the first team?"

Wu Rui and Xu Songming looked at each other.

How occluded is this news?And you want to come to the live broadcast, didn't you even do the most basic homework?Chu Yang's recent commotion is bigger than the entire national team, right?

"Yes, but it's not in Deportivo anymore, it's in West Second Division," Wu Rui reminded, "Now I'm sitting on the bench of the national team."

"Oh, the Second Division," Chen Changbin said disapprovingly, "I've watched that kid's game, and his speed is not good. The core of He's tactics is defensive counterattack, and speed is a must for a striker. Chu Yang is not suitable for this national team."

We all know that Chen Changbin is characterized by flexible movements and fast speed, especially the first step, which is definitely the top in Asia, so he has a natural sense of superiority in front of slow players.

Xu Songming smiled meaningfully, and said softly: "That's right, it's a pity that Mr. Chen retired earlier. Otherwise, with you, an Asian striker, in this national team, the quarter-finals would definitely be within reach, and the semi-finals would not be a dream."

"You can't say that, my era has passed," Chen Changbin thought deeply about this, but he was still modest. "Luck is something that cannot be explained clearly. If you miss it, you will miss it. Now it mainly depends on the young people."

Although there are live TV broadcasts, many fans still prefer to watch the games on CCTV's live broadcast platform.

After all, there is a comment area where you can brag with your golfers.

"The four words 'Asian Godhead' are the key points, circle them, and you will be tested at the end of the semester."

"Director Xu is so sloppy, Lao Chen doesn't know he's been molested yet."

"Wait for Chu Yang to hit the face."

"Chu Yang might not be able to play, right? What Old Chen said makes sense. It's difficult for Chu Yang to counterattack at that speed."

"Chu Yang was hand-picked by Director He to join the team, what a shame."

"Bet on a bag of spicy sticks, Chu Yang will definitely be able to play."

Unlike the netizens, Chu Yang wasn't worried at all that he wouldn't be able to play, because during the intermission, he was rushed by the coach to warm up without even entering the locker room.

What he has to consider is what title to use when playing.

If he uses Chasing Boy, then he won't be able to use the two most important shooting skills for him, Stone Breaker and Sky-Defying Arc, but if he wears a monster, his speed attribute can't meet the needs of lightning speed. Judging from the situation of this game, it may be difficult to get a chance to shoot without a strong dribbling breakthrough to tear apart the defense.

While hesitating, He Qingyuan sent someone to ask him to come in, so he finished his warm-up first and walked into the locker room.

There was a silence inside, only Yang Shaotian and He Qingyuan were discussing something.

Most people were indifferent to Chu Yang who came in, only Zhou Peng and another substitute striker Mo Qingshan realized something and took a deep look at him.

"Coach." Chu Yang came to He Qingyuan's side.

"Well," He Qingyuan didn't look up at him, and directly sketched quickly on the tactical drawing board in his hand, "You try to move around the front of the penalty area in the second half, and Shaotian will find you."

He paused while speaking, raised his head to look at Chu Yang, and said solemnly: "We need your long shots and free kicks."

Chu Yang said, "Stop playing defense and counterattack?"

"You're slow," He Qingyuan sighed, "You can't fight counterattacks."

Chu Yang and Yang Shaotian looked at each other, and said in unison: "Who said my (his) speed is slow?"
