our champion dream

Chapter 6 Watching the game in the last time before going to Wuhan

Entering August, August 2008, when the whole land of China was proud of the BJ Olympics, it was crazy.

This is the power of sports. In peacetime, sports is another war without gunpowder.It is another sign of the strength or not between countries.

There is no doubt that with the support of several generations and national policies, China has indeed become one of the few sports powers in the world.

On August [-]th, the whole country is looking forward to the opening ceremony with traditional Chinese characteristics carefully prepared by director Zhang Yimou at the Bird's Nest with excitement and joy.

The first battlefield of the Olympic Games has already fired the first shot.

Shenyang Wulihe Stadium, which has brought countless honors and brilliance to Chinese football, also ushered in the 2008 BJ Olympic Games, the first Olympic football match between the Chinese Olympic team and Brazil.

The Chinese men's football team not only joined the team as an overage player, but also the two main players of the national team at the time, the defense core Li Weifeng and the organization core Zheng Zhi, and Dongfang Zhuo, who had transferred from Manchester United, was recruited into the team.

Many domestic media even called the national team this time the strongest Olympic team in history.In the same group of Brazil, Belgium, and New Zealand, the qualifying rate of the Chinese team is second only to Brazil. The Chinese Football Association hired the famous coach of the 06 World Cup, Dujkovic, as the head coach. Just before the game, due to some personal reasons, Dujkovic resigned. Yin Tiesheng quickly took up the post of coach.In addition, the Football Association also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in this team, and proposed the goal of striving for medals.

Obviously, this Olympic team has received the attention of the whole country.Wulihe Stadium is filled with countless waving five-star red flags. This is the first stop of the Chinese Olympic team and the first appearance of the Chinese Olympic team. The whole country hopes that the Chinese Olympic team can give China a victory in the BJ Olympics. Good start.

Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin also gathered in the team lounge with their teammates under the arrangement of the coach, waiting for the start of the game.

It has to be said that L University, as a national key university, has sufficient financial support for football. The large training room is equipped with sofas and massage beds, and there is even a large, wall-mounted plasma TV hanging on the wall.

"Full of vigor!"

This is the thought that will arise in Li Xiaoming's heart every time he comes here.

"Watch the game carefully, don't chatter, and let everyone express their thoughts after watching."

"Didn't you agree to take us to KTV to watch the ball? There is no princess in the box, where can we watch the ball!?" Li Xiaoming started to provoke a war with Xu Ban again.

Xu Ban was not angry either, and said with a smile: "It seems that you did not train hard during the day, and you still have the energy to watch the ball at night. It seems that I will give you a little more training tomorrow."

"Boss Xu, you are avenging yourself!"

"Ha ha."

In this way, the match between the Chinese Olympic team and the Brazilian Olympic team kicked off amid such quarrels.

"Hi everyone, this is cctv5. Next, I will broadcast for you the first match between China and Brazil in the 2008 BJ Olympic men's football team. I am the commentator Duan Xuan."

The voices of old friends familiar to the team members appeared on the TV, which also brought everyone's attention back to the game from the live cross talk.

"At the beginning of the game, let me introduce the lineups of the two sides. The Chinese team at home has a lineup of five defenders. Li Dafeng, the main defensive core of the national team, partners with Feng Xiaoting, and Wan Liang forms a central defender to lead the game. Cui Peng and Gao Junmin are separated. On both sides, Zheng Zhi and Zhou Bin served as central midfielders, Jiang Ning and Zhu Ting served as left and right midfielders, and Dongfang Zhuo advanced alone.

On the Brazilian side, the lineup is star-studded, starting goalkeeper Reina, four defenders Breno, Thiago Silva, Ilcinho, and Marcelo lined up in the defense.Ramirez, Lucas, Diego, and Neves form Brazil's strong midfield, with superstars Ronaldinho and Pato partnering up front. "

At the beginning of the game, the Brazilian team bombarded the goal of the Chinese team, especially Ronaldinho, who used his excellent skills to threaten the goal of the game.

Sure enough, under the strong artillery fire of the Brazilian team, the wall of sighs of the Chinese team is really only sighs.

The team arranged five defenders, but they still couldn't stop Brazil's attack.In the 17th minute, Li Dafeng made a mistake with a long pass from the backcourt. The Brazilian team intercepted the ball and counterattacked quickly. Facing many defenders of the Chinese team, Diego knocked back to Ronaldinho who was keeping up. The latter sent a very subtle direct pass With the ball, Diego, who was plugged in, successfully turned offside to form a single-handedly. After passing Liu Zhenli who was attacking, he pushed the goal with his right foot and succeeded. The Chinese team fell behind Brazil 0-1.

"The Chinese team made a mistake. In front of world-class stars, even the slightest mistake will be magnified infinitely. The Chinese team is in danger. But there are still opportunities, and there is still a lot of time left for the Chinese team."

Although Duan Xuan was worried about the Chinese team being scored so early, but in front of the camera, facing hundreds of millions of viewers, he still gave the Chinese national football team a little support.

Li Xiaoming, a spectator outside the court, expressed a different view on the game in the lounge.

"The game is over, but the Brazilians scored so early in the defense. The next plot should be that the Chinese team's offensive players want to attack and counterattack, but the defensive players want to stabilize. This kind of inconsistency in thinking can easily lead to the goal. crisis."

Wang Ming: "Xiaoming is right."

Xu Ban was sitting on the sidelines, watching his disciples talking a lot with admiration.

The technical advantage of the Brazilian team is very obvious, completely controlling the rhythm of the game.In the 27th minute, Diego dribbled the ball in the middle of the front court and then went straight into the penalty area. Pato quickly inserted to form a single shot. Liu Zhenli blocked the ball and cleared it before Pato shot.In the 30th minute, the Brazilian team organized an attack from the right, and Zheng Zhi blocked the foul.The Brazilian team quickly sent out a free kick, and Ilson who inserted it crossed the ball before it went out of the baseline, and the ball slid past the goal.In the 32nd minute, the Brazilian team passed the ball into the penalty area with continuous small-scale cooperation. Ronaldinho lobbed lightly, and Feng Xiaoting reached out to block the ball when he fell to the ground.

The Chinese team's goal is jittery, and the goalkeeper has become the focus of the game.

Fortunately, the Chinese team successfully entered the locker room with a score of one to zero.

"Coach Yin Tiesheng must make adjustments in the midfield, or the Chinese team will be in danger."

The commentator Duan Xuan also made such an evaluation in the half-time commentary during the intermission.

However, in the face of the strong strength of the Brazilian team, it seems that any adjustment has no effect.

In the 67th minute, Li Dafeng pulled the ball to Sobies at the front of the penalty area and received the first yellow card of the game.Neves took the penalty and shot directly with his left foot. The ball drew an arc across the wall and flew into the net against the crossbar. The score became 0-2! (video)
Subsequently, Gao Lin replaced Dong Fangzhuo for the whole game.In the 73rd minute, the Brazilian team attacked from the right to the front court, and then crossed the ball to the front of the penalty area. Neves shot from a long distance, and the ball went straight to the dead corner of the goal. The score was rewritten to 0-3!

"What a game. The performance of the Brazilian team is completely world-class. I hope our Chinese team members can see the gap and continue to improve. In the next game, give us and all the fans a victory. I It's Duan Xuan, this is CCTV, see you next game."

It was indeed a total defeat.It also allowed Chinese players and Chinese fans to see the gap between us and the world's top players.

Even though he was always in the Black National Football Team, Li Xiaoming, like the other players, was a little frustrated.On the other hand, Xu Ban looked open, applauded everyone, and said: "Okay, this is football, this is the gap, let me tell you your views. Zhong Shijia, you go first."

Zhong Shijia, as the team's central defender and the backbone of the defense, should be very touched by this game.

"There are too many mistakes. In a normal game, although China's defense line has a lot of people, it is not integrated."

"What about you, Chen Bin?"

"Old Zhong talked about defense, let me talk about offense, anti-counterattack and anti-counterattack, but we didn't see the counterattack of the Chinese team in normal games. The backcourt rushed to clear the siege, and they all fell at the feet of the Brazilian defender. We can only rely on the players Personal ability to counterattack sporadically."

"Li Xiaoming, don't you talk a lot? Tell me?"

"Well, in a word, vegetables."

Li Xiaoming, who has always been a chatterbox, made this speech, even Xu Ban thought it was very incisive!After all, he, a well-known young coach in domestic football, has also seen that Chinese football is lagging behind in terms of technology, tactics, and body.
