Football’s First Defender

(Thanks for the reminder from a previous book friend. I forgot when I was writing the book. There are foreign aid restrictions in the Football Association Cup, and foreign aid cannot be played in the Chinese Super League! Now let’s modify the settings. Anyway, it is normal for the Football Association to change the rules, so for 2019 Guarantee the rights and interests of investors, and cancel the restrictions on foreign aid in the FA Cup.)

"Welcome everyone to watch the live broadcast of this FA Cup match. I am the host Su Rui. It is a great honor to invite former international footballer Xu Yang Xu to comment as a partner!"

"Hi everyone, I'm Xu Yang!"

"In this game, the upstart of the Chinese Super League, Shanghai SIPG, the champion of the Chinese Super League last season, will play at home against the emerging powerhouse Shenyang FC from the second division."

"Shanghai SIPG is no stranger to everyone. Although it has lost two consecutive rounds in the Chinese Super League, no one will doubt the strength of the defending champion. I believe the downturn is only temporary. As for the FA Cup, it was indeed the same as SIPG coach Pereira said before the game, with all the main players starting. It seems that SIPG needs a big victory to boost morale, and Pereira also needs a victory to consolidate handsome."

The host still needs to introduce some current situation before the game, but it seems that the information prepared by this new host is more conventional. After introducing the Shanghai SIPG team, there is no more content, as if to mention Shenyang on the opposite side fc is a matter of falling status.

This made Director Xu Yang, who had prepared a lot of dry goods, very upset.

"Hey, hey, what the hell is this rookie? Why did you ask me to bring this rookie? Although the commentary fee is a lot, you didn't even prepare the materials for the most anticipated youth team in the second division this season? It seems that the dry goods I prepared can only be revealed slowly during the competition, and it is the most difficult for beginners to cooperate!" Director Xu complained wildly in his heart.

Fortunately, the game started soon. A lot of fans poured into the live broadcast room, and the bullet screens began to pop up. After all, SIPG was the champion of the Chinese Super League last year, and the foreign players were all at the level of European giants. Although there is no AFC Champions League The championship buff, but there are also a lot of champion fans and people fans, and as the fifth round of the FA Cup live broadcast alone in prime time, it naturally attracts viewers, with more than 30,000 viewers on site, which is an example.

"SIPG will win, I want to give birth to a monkey for Oscar!"

"If you do the math, SIPG will win at home!"

"Hey, hey, upstairs, you still need to pinch your fingers, the winner of 1.05, hehehe!"

"Hey, 3 goals is a bit deep. I went to the visiting team. I hope to give some strength. The visiting team has a good record in the second division."

"Let's go to the visiting team together, I hope SIPG's gang will take more walks and don't slaughter! Win two and get it"

Sometimes it's not necessarily the fans who watch the game and follow the game, there are many others. But the traffic is real. The data in the background of the live broadcast has been rising rapidly with the start of the game, making the executives in the background think, should they also charge for the Football Association Cup of the Chinese Super League giants in the future? It is all small money... …

"Hulk Hulk's long-range shot! It's a pity that anti-aircraft guns were fired! SIPG began to attack fiercely at the beginning of the game, while the opponent Shenyang FC retreated for half the game. It seems that it is no accident that it is another offensive and defensive battle. Director Xu believes that the half game Can you break the ice?"

"The Shanghai SIPG team does not lack the means to break the deadlock. Whether it is Hulk or Oscar, they are both masters of long-range shots, and Elkeson and Wu Lei are the kind of forwards who can run out of opportunities. Breaking the deadlock is estimated to be a matter of time."

Although Director Xu is very optimistic about the future of Shenyang FC, after all, the level gap between the Super League and China B is too large, and the performance of young people is unstable after all. Director Xu can only hope that the game will be good, and the visiting team can perform well!

"Although there should be no suspense in SIPG's victory, the visiting team, as the second-ranked giant in the second division this season, has won 6 consecutive victories recently, and most of the players are young talents on loan from major old clubs in the Northeast. Their strength is still worth looking forward to. Yes, I hope to cause some troubles for SIPG, so that the game will have suspense!"

The host Su Rui was secretly startled, regretting that he didn't concentrate on looking for news about the away team before the game. After all, there is no shortage of giants with outstanding records in the second division every year. It is an obvious fact in China that the league gap between the two levels is too large.

Because the host didn't prepare enough materials, although Director Xu couldn't intentionally dismantle the stage, but in order to understand the effect of the explanation and show his professional strength, the introduction of the visiting team Shenyang FC was covered by Director Xu, and the host , the SIPG team and the commentary part of the real-time game are interspersed in the middle, and the scene forms an alternative harmony.

"Shenyang FC changed its boss at the end of last season. The new boss, Yang Feng, is in charge of a large group. In just a few years, he has developed his company from scratch to a listed company today, and has great influence in the Northeast. Great. It is precisely because of various commercial reasons that they have the ability and face to rent or buy from the major old clubs in Northeast China. Veteran, the players are all young talents under the age of 23, and even seven of the main players are under the age of 21, a veritable youth guard!"

"Ah, let's look at the field first. The Shanghai SIPG team made a wonderful penetration. At the top of the penalty zone, Oscar made a pass. Wu Lei quickly advanced. Is there a chance? Hey, it's a pity that Sun Peng, the No. 5 central defender of the visiting team, immediately made up for it. Defense, shovel, ball out of baseline, corner kick."

"This Sun Peng is a newcomer who has made his mark this season. He is only 20 years old this year and has never been selected for the national echelon. However, with his outstanding performance this season, the coach of the National Olympic Team believes that he is now fully capable of being selected for the National Olympic team. Even as the main force, thanks to the boss of Shenyang FC, he invited three groups of first-class youth training coaches from Spain, the United Kingdom and Germany to train dozens of young players. into the eyes of Spanish coaches, and then taught by British coaches!"

When director Xu said this, he couldn't help but imagine whether there are many hidden talents in the domestic youth training. After all, every coach and even every system has different player requirements. Players like Sun Peng who are not suitable for a certain system may be in other teams. No one ever considered whether he would fit into another system. I can only thank Sun Peng for having a good boss, meeting a good coach, and getting kicked out!

"The boss of Shenyang FC is really extravagant. Three groups of first-class youth training coaches? Maybe no Chinese Super League club is willing to spend so much money! Director Xu?"

"Indeed, as far as I know, it may cost tens of millions of euros every year for the Chinese Super League clubs to hire foreign coaches. As for youth training, domestic coaches are the main ones. Even for foreign youth coaches, the additional cost of one million euros is too much , but the three groups of coaches of the Shenyang team, plus the supporting nutritionists, trainers, physical trainers, etc., are said to be hired with high salaries and cost more than 100 million RMB. Of course, the effect is obvious, at least many players have played! Director Xu showed off the inside information he knew.

"Hundreds of millions? It can only be said that Boss Yang is really willing to spend money. It is said that if he is willing to spend money, in China, it only takes tens of millions to put together a lineup that occupies a place in the Chinese Premier League. And Yang The boss spends so much on his young players to hit second, he is really rich and willful."

Host Su was a little envious of Boss Yang's financial resources.

"Looking back at the game, another long-range shot came from Oscar, but unfortunately the anti-aircraft gun! 30 minutes have passed, and the SIPG team has shot 11 times, only 3 shots are on target. 2 kicks hit the defensive player, One long-range shot was confiscated by the goalkeeper, and the Shanghai SIPG team, which has been unable to start the game, feels a little impatient, and has been strengthening long-range shots recently, what does Director Xu think?"

"Indeed, SIPG, which had been patiently infiltrating before, has become a little anxious recently! But we can see that the visiting team's iron barrel formation is quite organized, and the 451 formation is maintained very well. At least in these 30 minutes, there is basically no What a mistake! Penetration can’t produce effects, and long-range shooting is an important weapon to break the game!”

"So far the visiting team has played very well. Zhang Yang, No. 9 of the single arrow, before the counterattack and dribbled the ball at high speed, made SIPG's defense panic. Now they are firmly suppressing the two central defenders on the opposite side, so that they dare not press too much. Above. The 4 defenders all enter the penalty area at any time to form a human wall, and the 2 full-backs shrink back to be used as full-backs. Even if a certain lane is passed, there are full-backs in the penalty area to defend to ensure that the two wings are not penetrated. 3 hits The field is to take advantage of the physical strength of young people, frantically mopping up, it can be seen that the Shanghai SIPG midfielder is very uncomfortable."

"But all of this is based on sufficient physical fitness and the perfect performance of the defense, but as the visiting team's physical fitness declines, SIPG will get more and more opportunities, right, Director Xu?"

"Yes, the hidden danger of the visiting team is not only the physical fitness of the three midfielders, but also the attention of the wide players. This is a huge consumption. You must know that the game is 90 minutes. SIPG only needs to break the goal first, then the visiting team basically There is no chance. Now it depends on whether the visiting team can survive the last ten minutes of the half, or even force it through 70 minutes. If the 0-0 score is maintained for 70 minutes, then even if the physical strength declines, it depends on mentality. With the advantage, the visiting team may not be able to carry out the upset to the end."

The wonderful defensive performance of the visiting team for 30 minutes made Director Xu appreciate these young people even more. After all, today's football world is like stagnant water, and young people are urgently needed to stir up the situation. These young people who are full of hard work on the field are the future of Chinese football. If a big cold makes more young people emerge, then what about the unpopularity? ...
