Midfielder Ruler

Chapter 79 Rumor Kills People

The first leg of the Copa Libertadores quarter-final against Fluminense at home is getting closer and closer, but Tang Zheng's training is still accompanied by Poncio. It is worth mentioning that after more than a week With intensive training, Tang Zheng has made great progress under Poncio's strong pressure.

However, he has not yet reached the minimum requirements of Diego Simeone, so this boring training will continue.

After the normal training was over, Tang Zheng invited his friends Falcao, Sanchez or Bonanault to practice together.

At night, Tang Zheng will take out the CD that Diego Simeone gave him to study.

It is very rich in content, and it is a highlight collection of outstanding midfielders in today's football. There are wonderful dribbles by Pirlo, Ballack, De Rossi, Essien, Alonso, Guti, Xavi and other stars.

They have a strong ability to get rid of the defensive midfielder position, but in general they are divided into three types, one is passing and cutting moves, one is getting rid of in situ, and the other is rhythm changes.

Tang Zheng is 1.93 meters tall. It would seem very awkward to get rid of players like Xavi and Iniesta in a row, so Tang Zheng put his mind on Pirlo and Alonso. An organizational defensive midfielder, the focus of getting rid of is rhythm changes and passing and cutting moves.

Now he is young and has strong explosive power. As long as his physical coordination can keep up, he will be fine.

With Tang Zheng having a firm goal direction, Poncio felt more and more pressure. Tang Zheng's learning ability and adaptability are really too strong. After playing in Ajia for six seasons, his first This is the first time I have seen such a monstrous player.

Diego Simeone in the coach's lounge looked at Tang Zheng who had made significant progress and nodded, but he was not particularly satisfied, and Tang Zheng still had a long way to go before he could grow into a star.

There is a big difference between the training ideas of the youth team and the training ideas of the first team...

Two days before the first round of the Copa Libertadores quarter-finals, Fluminense, who was a guest, took a flight to Buenos Aires. The media's attention was shifted without hesitation, and they were placed on the river plate and Ecuador respectively. Boca Juniors.

Compared to digging out whether there is any conflict between Tang Zheng and head coach Diego Simeone, the Copa Libertadores, which is about to start, is obviously much more important...

Next, there is another piece of good news for Tang Zheng.

In training the day before the game, coach Diego Simeone finally called him and Poncio from the independent training ground to the team's centralized training ground.

This also means that Tang Zheng can practice together with the team, and then... play the game!

And before the training ended, Tang Zheng was impressively included in the starting list announced by Diego Simeone!

Falcao and Sanchez and other teammates with good relations congratulated Tang Zheng, especially Falcao and Sanchez who were included in the starting list. They kept winking at Tang Zheng, hoping that Tang Zheng could give them a better performance in the next game. Send a second pass.

The stunning through kick in the national derby is still fresh in the memory of many people!

Fluminense, Flamengo, Botafogo, and Vasco da Gama have become the four giants in Rio de Janeiro, but the past of this team is not brilliant, only in 1970 and 1984. Champions of the Brazilian Football League.

They have won a lot of Rio State League Championships, a total of 30 times, but the gold content of this championship is not high. The most recent championship was the Brazil Cup Championship last year, and it was this championship that allowed them to participate in this competition. The Copa Libertadores of the season.

River Plate's training on the last day before the game was completely for the game, so it basically revolved around technical and tactical drills. Tang Zheng returned to the main lineup, partnering with Poncio as a double midfielder.

The two had teamed up as a double midfielder in many games, and they had been working alone for more than a week, so there was no need to worry about the tacit understanding, but what made Diego Simeone somewhat lacking in confidence was how much strength Tang Zheng could display.

Tang Zheng's ability was verified in the Argentine national derby, but after San Lorenzo's tactics targeted Tang Zheng, his role was reduced to a minimum. Except for the defensive end work being done well, he had no achievements in the offensive aspect. This will seriously affect River Plate's offensive and defensive transition in this game.

As for why Tang Zheng's ability overwhelmed Ahumada and entered the starting lineup, it was entirely due to Diego Simeone's consideration of defense. Fluminense's past honors in Brazil were not brilliant, but this did not prevent them from becoming a giant in Brazil. With the joining of former River Plate player Conca, Fluminense's offense has been greatly strengthened.

In order to form an effective defense in the middle, Diego Simeone decided to let Tang Zheng and Poncio partner with double midfielders.

With such a formation, Nicolas Domingo, who was able to enter the starting lineup, was unhappy because...he was sacrificed and put on the bench.

The influence of the Libertadores Cup in South America is the same as that of the Champions League in Europe, so there are a large number of reporters in the first two days of the Libertadores Cup.

The city of Buenos Aires, where River Plate is located, has gathered a large number of reporters. Coupled with the historical relationship between Argentina and Brazil, the knockout match of the Copa Libertadores between River Plate and Fluminense has become more concerned.

Not only Argentina and Brazil sent a large number of reporters, but also several other surrounding countries. Even some well-known media in Mexico, the United States and Europe sent individual reporters to pay attention to this war between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

It is said that there will be many European scouts watching the game. Fluminense's main central defender Thiago Silva is being watched by many European giants, as is the 19-year-old striker Alan.

River Plate is an absolute giant in Argentina, and some players have attracted the attention of European teams. Both Porto and Benfica have a strong interest in Colombian international Falcao. Udinese has also been investigating the growth of Sanchez.

Moreover, Tang Zheng, who has received a lot of attention recently, has also attracted the attention of some European football clubs, but because of his household registration, the attention he has received cannot be compared with Falcao, Sanchez, Thiago Silva and others.

Recently, Fluminense head coach Merisi Ramalho has some headaches. Tang Zheng performed well in the Argentine national derby ten days ago and was named the best player on the spot.

But then the Argentine media revealed some news about Tang Zheng having conflicts with head coach Diego Simeone, and Tang Zheng sat on the bench for a full 90 minutes in last weekend's league match, which seemed to be true.

But he didn't really believe it. Judging from the video of that match, there was no doubt about Tang Zheng's ability. Although his performance declined in the second round of the Copa Libertadores 1/8 finals, his defensive ability was still so good... …

If Tang Zheng and Diego Simeone really have conflicts, then the starting lineup for this campaign can be inclined to attack.

However, when Morrissey Ramalho got the River Plate starting lineup, he froze for a moment.

In fact, many media who followed the game were stunned for a moment, because in their minds, Tang Zheng was criticized by Diego Simeone because of his performance fluctuating too much, and Tang Zheng, who was hot-tempered, followed logically. Coach Diego Simeone quarreled and the meteoric streak began.

The plot is wrong!

This is tantamount to completely disrupting his previously set tactics. If River Plate didn't have Tang Zheng, the offensive routine would be relatively simple, but with Tang Zheng starting the game, River Plate's offensive routine would become rich and varied.

Tang Zheng did a good job on the defensive end. On the offensive end, he was able to launch a counterattack with precise long passes, and he was able to pass imaginative passes, making it hard to defend against.

If the defensive player appears to be distracted, it will be terrible!

On the other hand, Paul Andres, the reporter of "The Horn", did not have any accidents. He had a very good relationship with Tang Zheng in private. Apart from the river bed locker room and tactics, he was the clearest about Tang Zheng.

This is also the reason why he was able to come to the Monument Stadium to report live on behalf of the "Clarion" by virtue of Tang Zheng's relationship.

TYC Sports TV commentator Abel Claudio, who has always been optimistic about Tang Zheng's development prospects, said when he got the starting list: "Let me just say, those media are just chasing rumors, how could Tang talk to the head coach Diego Simon?" What about the conflict? I learned from the gossip that Diego Simeone valued Tang very much. The reason why he was "blocked" by head coach Igabi Fabianni in the youth team in the past was entirely because Diego Simeone paid too much attention to him and got involved with the youth team..."

Shorily Thermer held his chin and thought for a while, as if there was such a thing: "It's really a rumor that kills people!"
