Chapter 303: return to the national team

Li Qingqing won the Golden Globe Award and Hu Lai won the Bronze Globe Award to bring the excitement and excitement to the Chinese fans. Hu Lai has already embarked on the flight back to China.

He wants to join the national team and prepare for the quarter-finals.

This is his return to the national team after a lapse of ten months. After the national team qualified for the top 12 in advance, the head coach Jorge Dillon stopped recruiting Hu on the grounds of inspecting new players. Lai entered the national team.

He didn't play in the last two games of the Top 40.

In addition to preparing for the Olympic Games, he did not participate in the "China Cup" in June.

Now that the Olympic Games are over and the national Olympic team is disbanded, he can finally return to the national team. Xia Xiaoyu and Zhou Zijing are also returning with him. They also missed the national team competition for a long time because of the Olympic Games.

Fortunately, the top 40 is not difficult for the current Chinese team. Even if so many main players are lacking, the Chinese team has qualified for the top 12 two rounds ahead of schedule.

At the same time, their achievements in the national Olympic team are also good for returning to the national team, because they can use the experience in the Olympic Games in the national team competition - they are all people who have seen big scenes.

This year's top 12 competition, the Chinese team and Japan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Thailand are in a group.

The six teams will play a double round of home and away games. The top two teams in the final points can directly qualify for the World Cup, while the third place will have to play two play-offs with the third place in another group. And the fifth place from South America competes for the last ticket to the World Cup finals.

The goal of the Chinese team's top 12 this year is to directly qualify for the World Cup, rather than winning a World Cup place in a thrilling two rounds of play-offs like four years ago.

This means that the Chinese team must get the top two in this group.

Their most direct competitors are of course the mighty Japanese team, as well as the Iranian team.

Considering the strength of the Chinese team today, it can even be said that the only competitors are the Japanese team and the Iranian team.

Whether it is Iraq, Syria or Thailand, it is very difficult to compete with the Chinese team.

Of course, football is round. When the final result comes out, let's not draw any conclusions.

Because if you despise your opponent psychologically, it is really possible to capsize in the gutter.

After all, this is the top 12, and it is the highest level football competition in Asia.

At this level of play, anything can happen.

So still have to maintain a humble and cautious attitude on September 1st, the Chinese team will play against Iraq at home, and on September 5th, go away to Thailand.

The opponents in the first two games of the top 12 were not very strong, so the victory of these two games was definitely won.

If the Chinese team wants to compete with Iran and Japan for a direct qualifying spot, it must ensure that all three points are taken from teams weaker than itself.

Hu Lai met the "new acquaintance" of the Olympic team in the national team.

The difference between "new acquaintances" and "old acquaintances" is that although they are familiar, they have not known each other for a long time.

"New acquaintance" naturally refers to Ou Yangjin.

After the Olympic Games, Ou Yangjin was selected into the national team by Jorge Dillon for his outstanding performance in the Olympic Games.

All along, the midfielder position has been the weakness of the Chinese team.

This was particularly evident at last year's Asian Cup.

So many Chinese fans have begun to naturalize Morikawa Junpei - of course, it is impossible, so they are just YY.

Previously, the main midfielder of the Chinese national team was veteran Jiang Wanqing. He has participated in the World Cup and is considered a top midfielder in China.

But as he gets older, his condition is not as good as before.

This time in the top 12 competition, Dillon simply didn't recruit him.

Although Jiang Wanqing has not announced his withdrawal from the national team, everyone knows that his national team cycle is over.

After Jiang Wanqing, Gao Ruimin was the one who could take over.

The main midfielder of the last Olympic team was originally strong. But a serious injury in the World Cup interrupted his upward momentum and reduced his form and ability.

In addition, Ou Yangjin's rapid ascension momentum is really fierce, so in this round of twelve, Gao Ruimin may not be able to secure the position of the team's main midfielder.

Of course, he must still be the main force now.

Because after Jiang Wanqing, there is indeed no more suitable candidate in China at this stage.

Although Ou Yangjin performed well in the Olympic Games, he had never played a national team game before, and this was the first time he played in the top 12, so he always needed some time to get used to it.

But being able to join the national team is already a great progress and victory for Ou Yangjin.

In addition to Ou Yangjin, the captain of the Olympic team, central defender Cai Shuyi, was promoted from the Olympic team to the national team.

The original central defender of the national team, Yao Huasheng, is already thirty-five years old. As he ages, his physical function declines and he cannot keep up with the requirements.

Although he was still selected for the national team in this round of 12, he is almost certainly unable to play as the main force in the last round of 12.

And the Chinese team is currently playing a three-centre formation. In addition to Wang Guangwei, the original two central defenders are Yao Huasheng and Mao Junzheng. Mao Junzheng's problem is the same as Yao Huasheng, both of which are older - Mao Junzheng It is also one year younger than Yao Huasheng.

So they probably won't be able to finish this top 12 match.

Currently partnering with Wang Guangwei are 34-year-old Mao Junzheng and 27-year-old Liu Yan.

Liu Yan was the main center back of the Olympic team four years ago, and he has always been the main force in the club. He used to be in Lingnan Poseidon, but now he has gone to Hedong Thunderbolt, where he is the captain.

After four years of training, although he has not been able to play abroad, he is also a leading central defender in China.

Cai Shuyi, as the captain of the Olympic team, currently plays football in Shanhaihai. His performance in the national Olympic team is quite satisfactory,

Although he is not as pushy as Ou Yangjin, he has faced many outstanding young forwards in the world.

Accumulated a lot of experience and seen the world.

You can gradually adapt to the national team's game in the process of the top 12, and may be a useful supplement to the back line.

Although during the period when Hu Lai and the others temporarily retired from the national team, Dillon spread hero posts and recruited many new international players who were not in the national team before to investigate.

But it doesn't mean that Dillon wants to overthrow his chosen lineup. If it's no surprise, the main lineup of the Chinese team in this top 12 match should be similar to that of the previous top 40 match, and there will be no personnel adjustments.

The main strikers are definitely Hu Lai and Zhou Zijing, and the main midfielders are Zhang Qinghuan, Xia Xiaoyu, Gao Ruimin, Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai. The main defenders are Wang Guangwei, Mao Junzheng and Liu Yan. The main goalkeeper is Lin Zhiyuan.

This is the strongest lineup that Chinese football can come up with at present, and it is also the most mature lineup.

Compared with the main competitors Japan and Iran, the thickness of the bench is slightly worse.

However, the upper limit of this main lineup of the Chinese team is higher than that of Japan and Iran.

After all, it has a European Bronze Ball winner.

※※Hu Lai, who returned to the national team, was still surrounded by media reporters and asked him what it was like to win the bronze ball award.

For this kind of question, Hu Lai always refused to answer:

"I came back for World Cup qualifiers, and if you ask me questions about World Cup qualifiers,

I'm happy to answer. "

The reporters responded quickly when they saw it, and someone immediately asked, "Then Hu Lai~www.readwn.com~ Can we make it to the World Cup finals this time?"

Hu Lai gave an unequivocal answer: "It's definitely possible, otherwise, wouldn't we be busy?"

He was particularly full on this issue because there was no "room for manoeuvre" on this topic.

Since you came to participate, do you still have to say "I don't know if we can make it to the finals"?

Doesn't that mean you have no faith?

But how can there be no confidence in such a thing?

Must have!

As the number one player in Chinese football, I don't have such confidence. What do you want others to think?

You yourself don't believe that the Chinese team can reach the World Cup finals, so why are you struggling?

When the media at the scene heard Hu Lai say this, no one thought Hu Lai was "arrogant". On the contrary, they were very happy after hearing it - Hu Lai said that, everyone felt more relieved!

After all, a player who has just won the European Bronze Ball Award is not arrogant to say "go to the World Cup".

Today's Hu Lai is no longer the "nobody" who said he wanted to win the World Cup but was slammed by others

.

Today, even if he repeats his "goal" to win the World Cup again, although there will still be many people who don't believe that he can achieve it, he can also laugh and boast that "this is the confidence of a super genius" instead of Calling him ignorant and grandstanding...
