our euro cup

Chapter 65 The battle with Spain begins!
In the afternoon, Gdansk Municipal Arena.

The Spanish players have already warmed up on the field first.Their jerseys are away jerseys, a blue color that most people seldom see.And we are wearing our traditional home jersey - red and white checkered jersey.The red and white grid is our symbol of Croatia, our national flag and our national emblem are all red and white grid patterns.We were in the locker room, and when we were discussing tactics, we heard the earth-shattering cheers from the fans outside. It was a cheer for the world champion Spain, and it was a voice for the Spanish stars...

"When will we be treated like this?" I said angrily.

"Don't think about it, you want us to have this treatment, unless we win this European Cup and then win the 2014 World Cup in Brazil." Modric said.

"That's right, if we want to win honors and the recognition of the fans, the most important thing is our own record. If we can't get better results, we want to get the recognition of the fans, and we want to win in the stadium. It's impossible to hear the cheers of the fans," captain Srna also said.

"Well... yes... the honor, you have to fight for it by yourself!" I secretly made up my mind.

I must score a goal, and I must lead the Croatian team to beat Spain and win the right to qualify for the group stage!

Then, in the knockout rounds, move on and win three more games to win this European Cup!

In this way, in the World Cup in Brazil, the fans cheering will be our Croatian fans. Even the neutral fans will wear Croatian plaid jerseys and call Modric and Rakitic on the sidelines. , Mandzukic, and me—the name of Chuso Viginstic!
Spain, just wait.Our Croatian team will definitely show you some color!
Especially, my stardust shot that never appeared in the world—

I believe that it will definitely bring huge troubles to Casillas!
It's our turn!We warm up after Spain!I waved my hands and shouted loudly: "The Croatian team is playing! Everyone cheers!"

However, there was not much reaction in the entire Gdansk Municipal Arena.Only the die-hard Croatian fan area with seven or eight stands erupted into shouts.However, what they shouted was nothing more than "Modric", "Mandzukic", "Bilić", "Rakitic" and even "Kranjica", but no one shouted "Chussovikinsti strange"! ...

"It's okay, even if no one is cheering for me, it doesn't matter. Just wait for a while, I scored a goal for Casillas, and at that time, the cheers of the audience will all belong to me." I secretly said Say to yourself.

"Stardust shot" and Modric's long pass to me and Mandzukic to cooperate with the header tactics are our secrets, so they cannot be exposed in front of tens of thousands of people.So our pre-match training is basically to practice some ordinary passing and receiving, as well as shooting from free kicks and corner kicks.On the opposite field, Spain is quite open, they just pass the ball with three people, and grab the ball with two people. This is a small game for training tikitaka tactics-rats grab the ball!

The most powerful position in Spain is their midfielder.Compared with Italy, Spain's midfield is another level.If the Italian midfielder is still at a level that Modric and the others can handle, and only Pirlo is considered a master, then the Spanish midfielder is obviously several layers higher than Modric and the others— —Whether it is Iniesta, Harvey, Fabregas, David Silva and other stars, none of them are worth less than Modric.The mouse snatching the ball just now is enough to see the strength of several of them-the passing team composed of Iniesta Xavi and Cesc Fabregas was able to form the two famous stars Torres and Busquets The ball-scrambling team was in a mess-the continuous seventeen or eight-foot passes between the three directly exhausted Torres and Busquets. This level of strength is simply against the sky!
Facing such a strong technical midfielder, what can we do?

Our midfielder is of course also technical, but there is no doubt that our midfielder will definitely be overwhelmed by Spain in terms of creativity and technology!So, what measures will we take to get rid of the entanglement of the Spanish midfielder and hit the ball to the frontcourt and the forward line?

I thought about it for a long time, and felt that there was really only one move——Stardust shot.

"Modric, you must pass the ball up..."

The warm-up on the field is over, and we returned to the locker room with Spain.Bilic, making final arrangements, said:
"Everyone understands that Spain's technical strength is not something we can easily compare. Even if we have a golden midfielder like Modric, Perisic and Rakitic, but compared to their Ines Tower and Harvey, this pair of twin-star midfielders at the historical level of football, we are still far from enough. If we want to win the World Cup champion and defending European Cup champion - Spain, we can only reduce the number of players in the middle The entanglement with them on the field, the quick ball, the use of simpler and more concise tactics, the ball is quickly passed to the forward line, Mandzukic and Chuso Vikingstic. To play Spain, we can only rely on the high point of the frontcourt Only by taking advantage of chaos can we succeed. Facing Iker Casillas, strikers must be calm when shooting, including Chuso Vikingstic. You have to know why Casillas is Casillas, that is because , he knows how to find the weakness of the striker better than others, and he knows how to draw out the temper of the opponent's striker. If you are busy shooting in front of Casillas and lack of transition, then Casillas will definitely quickly put the The ball is destroyed, and once we lose possession, it will be difficult for us to get it back."

"Our tactics, I have already explained in the previous training. Everyone should remember what I said. In the end, our battle is for the people of Croatia and for the great country of Croatia. Everyone must work hard, and don't fail the call of the red and white checkered flag!"

"Okay!" All 18 players who entered the field united together and shouted vigorously!
The game is about to start!We, as well as the Spanish team next to the channel, have already stood at the entrance of the channel!Led by referees and ball boys, we finally entered the last group match!
That is our battlefield!

In the 2012 Poland-Ukraine European Cup, the third round of the group match between Croatia and Spain begins!
