Iron Man on the pitch

Members of the national team appeared one after another on the training ground. Not long after, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Queros, led the staff who carried various training equipment to the training ground.

Looking at the group of players who were playing the game of snatching the circle, Queros nodded with satisfaction. But then he found that among these people, only Ronaldo and Pepe were the main players. They brought a group of young people from Sporting Lisbon, as well as Nani and Fabio Coentrane, who also had unlimited potential. The newcomer has a lot of fun.

Queros' brow frowned.

As a head coach with a strong personality and a set of methods, Queros needs his players to obey his tactical arrangements unconditionally, so he doesn't like his players to have his own small groups, especially big-name players.

Originally, under Queros, the number of players from the three giants of Porto, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon was similar. In addition, the scattered international players allowed him to control the team more easily.

But there are too many players from Sporting Lisbon now, and it seems that they are united by Ronaldo. The combination of the two is a bit enormous, which is not good news. But Queiroz has no choice. After all, Ronaldo has the origins of Sporting Lisbon.

Although the head coach has the highest position in the team, he will inevitably become a scapegoat when his record is not good. Especially Queiroz has heard that someone within the Football Association wants to exchange Paul Bento for himself, but this action He was suppressed by those who supported him within the Football Association.

"Just Paul, I remember playing football under my hands, but now I want to replace me, it's really against Tiangang."

Queros blew the whistle and led the players to start today's training class.

Hearing the whistle, Li Ling stepped on the football that was just around the corner, picked it up gently, and held the football in his hand.

But at this time, Pepe suddenly signaled everyone to move closer to him, so everyone who had just snatched the circle together surrounded him.

"Remember, no matter what dissatisfaction with the coach's tactics and training methods, don't refute it in person. After the training is over, go to him to communicate." After that, Pepe looked around and glanced at Li Ling with a special glance. .

"I understand." Li Ling tried hard to keep his face calm and almost stopped. "If you hadn't kept tying Figo, in order to prove that his vision was right, I wouldn't have tried to analyze Queros's right answer. Wrong. But this is a valuable experience. No one can tell whether they will encounter an annoying coach or are not suitable for themselves in the future. Then the current experience will be useful."

In the following training, Li Ling completed boring physical training and basic training in a regular manner, and did not give Queros, who had a fierce expression, the chance to pick on the trick. Look, Nani and Rui Patricio, who were slightly relaxed, were seized by Queros and squirted bloody.

Fortunately, this difficult time passed quickly. After all, it was the first day of training and would not spend too much time on these projects.

Next, Queros arranged an in-squad match.

"Sure enough, Queros prefers mature men. We young people may not have many opportunities to play." After wearing the training vest used to distinguish the team, Li Ling suddenly realized that no matter whether he wanted to or not, he would be with Queros. There is a fundamental contradiction between them.

Those who wear orange vests representing the main lineup are goalkeepers: Eduardo; central defenders: Ricardo Carvalho, Bruno Alves; full-backs: Paul Ferreira, Miguel; midfielder: Raul Merelles, Thiago, Deco; center Ledesson, two wingers, Ronaldo and Simon.

Wearing a green vest for the substitute lineup, goalkeeper: Rui Patricio; central defender: Pepe, Rolando; full-back: Fabio Cointran, Duda; midfielder: Pedro Mendes, Miguel Veroso, Joao Moutinho; center Ugo Almeida, two wingers Danny and Nani.

Queros is too stubborn. He obviously can't match a suitable 4-3-3 lineup, but he wants to make the substitute lineup 4-3-3. For this reason, Li Ling forced him out of the lineup. After all, Li Ling registered as the front midfielder. Moreover, Queros does not believe in the talent and fighting spirit of young people, and chooses to believe in the experience of mature players. It seems that such a choice in the cup is understandable, but the result that can be obtained in this way can only be just the right one.

Sure enough, even in the team training, the main lineup still had a very constipation in 4-3-3, just like playing tied with Albania before. After all, the three midfielders in the substitute lineup all come from Sporting Lisbon, and they have a good understanding of each other and defend.There is also Real Madrid's main central defender on the line. In terms of strength, it is much better than Albania.

But inappropriate tactical play will indeed greatly reduce the players' strength, and the offense of the substitute lineup is also weak and powerless.

Moreover, compared with the main lineup, the substitute lineup with worse personal abilities cannot even create a decent threat. The main lineup can at least rely on Ronaldo's personal abilities to break through or shoot from time to time to threaten the substitute lineup. goal.

In this way, after 20 minutes of hypnotic offensive and defensive drills, the first half of this team game ended. After a 5-minute break, the second half begins.

Li Ling finally got the opportunity to play. He replaced Danny and played at Queiroz's request to play as a winger who he was not good at in theory.

With a beeping whistle, Li Ling ran to the frontcourt according to tactical requirements.

Joao Moutinho and Miguel Veroso fell back and forth between the back line and waited until the main lineup was suppressed forward, and passed the ball to Pedro Mendes, who had a long kick. Pass it up and go directly to Li Ling in front.

"I really trust me." Li Ling quickly overtook Paul Ferreira and stopped the football first.

"So fast speed!" Paul Ferreira was surprised. Li Ling's impact was no less than that of Premier League wingers.

Li Ling, who stopped the ball, had already arrived near the left sideline. He turned around halfway and faced the goal, Paul Ferreira chased after him desperately.

Li Ling set out in a pose and raised his leg and wanted to pass it. Seeing this, Paul Ferreira quickly made a flying tackle to block Li Ling's passing route.

But unexpectedly, Li Ling did not kick the ball out, but instead hit the ball horizontally with his right foot, avoiding the flying tackle. Li Ling watched Paul Ferreira glide past him, then drove the ball and launched an attack into the penalty area.

The old opponent Bruno Alves hurriedly came over to intercept him. Li Ling waved a few times, pushed the football to the right side with his left foot, and at the same time took a big step forward to make a move to cut inward. Then, taking advantage of the opportunity when Bruno Alves rushed over to block the ball, he pushed the ball back with his right foot, and smoothed his left foot, completing the breakthrough at the bottom.

Li Ling raised his left foot and gently passed the ball to the center of the penalty area.
