Midfielder Ruler
Chapter 138 I want to win the double crown
Remember【】in a second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.
In fact, it wasn't that Simeone played too much, but that he believed in Tang Zheng's potential and ability very much, that's why he made such a big gamble with the reporter.
If the media knew that in order to save his character, he didn't say that after Tang Zheng adapted to this strategy, he would very likely lead the team to the league championship and the Copa Libertadores championship, otherwise the sensation would be even greater.
When relevant media reports reached Tang Zheng's ears, his first reaction was not a huge pressure, but a kind of unprecedented trust and support.
So Tang Zheng secretly vowed that he must work hard to adapt to Simeone's new tactical system, and also win the league championship and... the Libertadores Cup championship!
A scholar dies for his confidant!
Simeone has the grace of rebuilding him. In any case, whether it is for his own dream or for the face of his mentor, he must complete this seemingly impossible task!
Tang Zheng's training state is excellent, and after the training, he will continue his previous habits, actively stay in the training ground for additional training, rain or shine.
Perhaps it was because media reporters paid too much attention to the daily activities of River Plate, the news of Tang Zheng's extra training day after day was published many times.
Undoubtedly, with this wave of news being made public, River Plate fans' love for Tang Zheng became even deeper.
Originally, some of them thought that Tang Zheng was Chinese and not worthy to be the third captain of River Plate, but now it seems... Tang Zheng's hard work is enough to deserve this treatment.
The atmosphere in the River Plate training ground is very harmonious, so the training has brought good results, and the tactical run-in with Tang Zheng as the core of the tactics is gradually taking shape.
Therefore, River Plate's first round match against Sporting Cologne can be regarded as Tang Zheng's first quiz as the core midfielder. If he performs well, he can temporarily shut up those media, and if his performance fails to meet expectations, then the media will There are enough excuses to ridicule Simeone and Tang Zheng.
At the same time, Ole, Nation, Chronicle and other media that have a bet with Simeone also played some small tricks during the days when River Plate was preparing for the league. They used their resources to constantly question Simone. Ni and Tang Zheng, I hope they will be disturbed in the next league and Copa Libertadores.
Ole Daily, which has always been at odds with Tang Zheng, said bluntly: It is undeniable that Tang is a very good young player, and Diego Simeone is also a leader among the new generation of young coaches, but we do not think that a Chinese How much he can achieve in Ajia. Yes! He has succeeded in the past, which can only prove that he is suitable for the river plate tactical system in the past,
As for the new tactical core, IMHO...he is unlikely to succeed!
...On the land of Argentina, the most indispensable thing is talent. Tang's past success can only show that the teams have not studied him deeply enough. I believe that as time goes by, more coaches and players will appreciate his skills. Know more about the habits, and still want to perform well in the next autumn league? Maybe... this is a good dream! From the National Daily A-League Autumn League Preview.
Faced with all kinds of doubts, Tang Zheng never cared, he would only personally slap his face when he achieved success.
※※※
Training and actual combat are two concepts. Excellent training performance does not mean that the actual combat is equally good, so the first round of the autumn league against Sporting Cologne made Simeone a little nervous.
The same is true for Tang Zheng.
The past Summer Cup was at most a model of a tactical system, which was not complete. In addition, the Summer Cup was just a warm-up cup, which was not convincing.
Only a league with real knives and real guns will play a role.
2:2
When the full game whistle blew, the scoreboard showed the score.
In the past 90 minutes of the game, Tang Zheng has worked very hard. His running without hesitation has indeed brought great help to the team's offense, and the frequent advances have also won many opportunities. When defending, it is difficult for Poncio alone to truly straighten his back.
Therefore, two goals were scored in the front and two goals were conceded in the back, which was not worth the loss.
In the regular press conference after the game, except for the Clarion and a few media with a relatively good relationship with the river plate, Simeone was not ridiculed. Taking this opportunity to slap Simeone in the face, he laughed at his previous figure skating.
However, Simeone did not give up on using Tang Zheng as the core of his tactics because of this. Facing the media's doubts, he said sharply: The league has just begun. I believe that with the deepening and running-in of the league, Tang can fully adapt to this set of tactics. A new tactical system!
In order to protect Tang Zheng from media interference, Simeone even issued a gag order to the team, forbidding any players to accept media interviews.
As one of the few top giants in Argentina, River Plate failed to beat the underdog Athletic Cologne at home in the first round, and the team atmosphere was a bit depressed.
This was the first time Tang Zheng felt the pressure of being in a wealthy team, especially as he became the team's third captain and the core of the midfield, the pressure increased exponentially, and even made him a little out of breath.
Therefore, the training atmosphere for preparing for the first round of the Libertadores Cup group stage is particularly heavy.
A day later, the River Plate team took a flight to Belo Horizonte, Brazil with a heavy atmosphere, to start the 2009 Copa Libertadores tour.
In the first round, they will face a very strong opponent, the strong team Cruzeiro from the Brazilian League.
※※※
Ninety minutes later, the scoreboard at the Arena Mineiro showed an unacceptable score for River Plate fans.
0:3
The home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.
Tang Zheng's performance in this game was very bad, it can even be said that it was his worst performance in a professional league game, because he accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off before halftime of the game.
And this red card also laid the groundwork for the defeat of the next game...
Therefore, the regular press conference after the game was very lively. Except for a few reporters who asked quite satisfactory questions, most of the media questioned Simeone's tactical choices.
The reporter of Ole asked sharply: Is this your best choice? Hehe...the core of the midfield? The third captain? Can we think this is the biggest failure of your coaching career?
The league has just started! The Copa Libertadores has only started one round. What can you prove? Just kidding! The things I, Diego Simeone, will see will not change! So I believe in Don! Speaking of this, Simeone's voice Zhuan: And... the referees in this game were very harsh on us, but we were the only ones who got the card for the same foul, and the home team didn't even have a warning.
Excuse me, are you questioning the referee? A reporter from Brazil's Globe came down.
Simeone is a newcomer in the coaching world, but he is an old fritter in international football. How can he fail to understand the implication of the Globe reporter?
His answer was succinct: It's just your guess.
Despite Simeone's explanation, River Plate received a fine from CONMEBOL the next day...
※※※
In order to protect the players, Simeone did not take the players to the routine press conference after the game, and left the scene after a brief interview.
But will that solve those headaches for journalists?
the answer is negative.
On the afternoon of returning to Buenos Aires, the entire River Plate team was intercepted by local reporters, and Simeone's desire to protect Tang Zheng was shattered.
Don, may I ask if you feel that it is difficult for you to be the core of the midfield?
The team lost to Cruzeiro in the away game. Is your red card the root cause of River Plate's loss?
According to a reliable source, you had a heated argument with the head coach after the game. Is this news true?
...
Dozens of reporters surrounded Tang Zheng with long guns and short cannons, making it difficult for the teammates behind Tang Zheng to move forward.
Tang Zheng frowned and glanced at the hostile reporters, and suddenly felt an urge to explode in his heart, because the continuous loss made him very annoyed.
Are you finished? Tang Zheng complained very much.
Huh? Do you mean that you are becoming angry from embarrassment?
The away defeat to Cruzeiro, shouldn't you bear the greatest responsibility?
Does the result of this game mean that you are not suitable for the core position?
...
Immediately afterwards, the reporter threw out another bunch of question bombs.
Musazio, who was walking behind, saw Tang Zheng's complexion changed very quickly, and his fists were clenched tightly. He thought he was going to hit the reporter, so he quickly grabbed Tang Zheng, and said in a low voice, Don't be impulsive.
Tang Zheng rolled his eyes, most likely Musazio misunderstood, so he shrugged his right shoulder and said speechlessly: You think too much...
what?
While Musacchio was in a daze, Tang Zheng leaned his upper body forward, pointed his mouth at a large pile of long guns and short cannons, and looked at the serious expression of the middle-aged reporter with the Ole Newspaper badge hanging around his neck. Say, Okay, since you want me to be interviewed, I'll do it.
Listen clearly! Tang Zheng's voice rose an octave, and even the River Plate players, coaches and staff instinctively looked over and heard him say, First of all, I must be responsible for losing the game. But the game has passed, the so-called taking responsibility is tantamount to farting, it is useless, all I can do is to help the team out of the predicament in the future game...
You mean that only you can help Riverbed get out of the predicament? The reporter of Ole Newspaper interrupted Tang Zheng as if he had discovered a new continent.
Didn't your mother tell you that it's very rude to interrupt others? Tang Zheng crossed his arms and said playfully.
you……
If you still want me to accept your interview, please stop interrupting me!
The middle-aged reporter of Ole Newspaper turned pale with anger.
Tang Zheng continued: We are a team, getting out of the predicament requires everyone's joint efforts, I am only a catalyst at best, and you are denying me, the leader, and everyone's efforts in two games, isn't it too much? Arbitrary? To tell you the truth, my goal this season is to win the Autumn League and Copa Libertadores double.
What? A group of reporters were dumbfounded.
I said, my goal is to win the double championship this season. Tang Zheng repeated, and the following words were even more verbatim: The double championship of the league and the Copa Libertadores! OK?
