The Ball at Your Feet

When everything else was done, Zhao Yaning didn't forget, and took out his free time to call Alizee to greet him.

"I heard about you winning the championship." Alizee was in a good mood. "But, still can't come back? Going to play in the Olympics?"

"Yes, the match on August 11, against Portugal."

Zhao Yaning responded, which drew a burst of dissatisfaction from Alizee, "The doctor said that I might be in labor this month, but you still have to run out to play football... Are you too much?"

Zhao Yaning could only explain with a wry smile, "If it's a club game or a profitable game, I won't play it. But this is a national team game after all, I'm not good..."

"Well, I don't want to hear complaints." Alizee interrupted him quickly, "You only have football in your eyes. I will never be the first. I can bear it, but in the future I don't want my son to suffer from football. I'm angry, if you don't make time to spend time with your son in the future, you can't do it."

Is it so troublesome for pregnant women to have emotions? Zhao Yaning didn't know what to say, so he could only offer a few words of comfort.

"Since you don't even need your son for this broken game, when you come back, at least get me the medal back, okay?" After a few words, Alizee made a condition, "I can do it in the future. Take it to educate your son,'Your father was born for this thing, regardless of whether you were born'..."

"If you keep on saying that, I don't dare to win..." Zhao Yaning smiled bitterly.

"Can you win? I don't know the Chinese team. I only know that you just won the Asian Cup. Do you think you can win the Olympics?"

Zhao Yaning didn't know this question either.

Games like the Olympics, after all, there is no fixed number of strengths and weaknesses. Many strong teams simply dismissed the Olympics and would not send good players to play in the Olympics. Germany has not played in the Olympics since the 1990s, and France has a dispensable attitude towards this game. Brazil and Argentina have never been concerned about the Olympics. For example, this time, the Brazilian team failed to qualify. To say that Brazil does not have enough and good enough age-appropriate players, no one believes it, but they just lose, so what can they say?

In this kind of competition, it is normal for a weak country to defeat a strong country. For example, in 2000, the champion Cameroon defeated Spain to win the championship. Spain, represented by Barcelona player Xavi, was very strong in Europe, but lost to the African players headed by Eto'o. And even if this Chinese National Olympic team played against the Brazilian National Olympic team, Zhao Yaning was not among them, but relying on the level of other people, he did not fall behind in the confrontation with the Brazilian National Olympic team with Kaka. Feng, from the scenes, the results have not suffered, and it seems like a dream to say it.

And more, the history of the Olympic Games is more of a joke. Not to mention the 96 Olympics, the Brazilian team with Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Carlos, Bebeto, Grand Juninho, Dida, Ze Maria, etc., known as the strongest Olympic team in history, It was cut 1-0 by Japan, and it is really hard to figure out how they played.

Because of the contempt of this honor by football powers, in many cases, even weak football countries can make a counter-attack and score good results. But sometimes, in this kind of Olympic games, the enemy will be strong and abnormal, and even make people feel powerless: for example, the 1952 Olympic Games, the representative team sent by the Hungarian Olympic team, and two years later, in 1954. The Hungarian national team in the World Cup was almost a team-the one that was invincible in the world at the time and was defeated by West Germany in the World Cup final by the ban on drugs.

Moreover, once the age of football is restricted, it is difficult to be interesting. After all, the Olympic games conflict with the league. Many teams’ over-age players find it difficult to find strong players. Most of them are under the age of 23. The game of football has a big problem, that is, young people under 23. After all, it is difficult to have a strong defense.

Defence is far more experienced than offense, which is why the maturity of the guards is much later than that of the forwards. The age limit is limited, which also allows some talented offensive players to have a lot of room to play, and those defensive players will suffer a lot. After all, the offensive end of football always occupies the active side, and talented attackers have an advantage over talented defenders.

Zhao Yaning feels that the strength of the China National Olympics this year is still okay. After all, half of the Olympic team are members of the national team, and they are not worried about some U23 teams. If you encounter a session where other teams are not strong enough, then it is possible to rush to the end: after all, the pressure on the Olympic Games on the Chinese team is not normal. But if you really encounter a strong and terrifying opponent, then it will be in big trouble. If you really meet a team like Hungary in 1952, no matter how hard you work, it will be difficult to win.

What makes him even more helpless is that because most of these teams are young people, he just wants to prepare some information, but also has to worry about insufficient information.

However, according to some data collected by Zhao Yaning himself, there should not be such a perverted team in this Olympics.

The European teams qualifying for the Olympics this time are Serbia, Italy, Portugal and the host Greece. Germany, France, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands did not make it into the finals. The South American finalists are Mexico, Paraguay, Argentina and Costa Rica, Asia is South Korea, China, Iraq, and Africa is Mali, Morocco, Ghana, and Tunisia. Australia is naturally Australia.

Among the several teams in Europe, only the Italian team is a football power. But Italy’s Olympic team does have a lot of problems. The Italian team originally wanted Totti, Cassano and Buffon to participate in the Olympics as over-age players, but Rome was unwilling to send Totti and Cassano the pillars of the two teams, but gave Ferrari and Pellizzoli two people , Juventus even refused to let go. In the end, the Italian Football Association could only give in, or dig people from Milan, so that Milan sent Pirlo to play in the Olympics. The Italian Olympic team really has no talents. Their biggest name is Gilardino, the local top scorer who plays for Parma, and there are backcourt players such as Chiellini, Barzagli and De Rossi. .

Such a lineup is actually relatively strong in the Olympic Games.

And this Portuguese team is even more unavailable. Figo, Rui Costadeco and others all refused to participate in the Olympic Games, and this Portuguese national Olympic team, except Fernando Mela who played for Stuttgart, Mott played for Fulham, Viana played for Newcastle, and Xiaoxiao Luo plays outside of Manchester United, everyone else is a player in the Portuguese Super League. And because most of them play for Benfica and Porto, that is to say, most of these people are substitutes-at least, Zhao Yaning has heard of only one Bosingwa.

Greece is relying on the host's advantage to get the right to qualify for the time being, Serbia's state is not much better than Greece, and there are no real famous players.

On the contrary, it is a few teams in South America, so Zhao Yaning feels that the strength is quite good. Paraguay and Mexico have always had a tradition of strong youth teams, and the Argentine team is known as the strongest team in this session-both vertical and horizontal comparisons are the strongest.

The head coach of Argentina is one level above everyone else: their Olympic coach is Bielsa, who is known as a lunatic. In the selection of over-age players, they unexpectedly chose Samuel, Ayala and Heinze three guards-and Zhao Yaning also has to admit that none of these three guards are very easy to deal with. ...

In the midfield line, although they did not recruit the previously rumored Riquelme and Aimar, they also have Mascherano, Dale Sandro, Luis Gonzalez, and Kili Gonzal. Reis has a lot of strong players, and above the strikers, they also have Tevez and Saviola, a homegrown and two European strikers.

For this kind of arm, Zhao Yaning also admitted that if they really want to win, it would be really difficult to deal with this group of goods by themselves...

And speaking of it, several teams in Africa are not strong. Among the teams of Mali, Morocco, Tunisia, and Ghana, only Tunisia is a strong team in Africa. Ghana and Mali are a bit inferior, and Morocco is even worse. Other strong teams in Africa, such as Cameroon and Nigeria, have not been able to appear. But speaking of them, Sissoko from the Mali team and Essien from the Ghanaian team are actually Zhao Yaning's old acquaintances.

This is almost the same, it is the profile of the opponent. And looking back at his own Olympic team, although this Olympic team was blown into the'super platinum generation~www.ltnovel.com~ some people even claimed that they would not lose to the national team, but Zhao Yaning still felt Know their strength. He doesn't understand other things, such as aura, consciousness, cleverness, and willpower. He may miss it, but he can still be clear about his technical ability and the level of touch and catch. These guys are not a bit worse than the older generation of players in the national team.

But even so, this is a team that can play. On the front line, Daewoo, Qu Bo, midfielder, himself, Yan Song, Zhao Hongri, Hu Zhaojun, Zhou Haibo, Sun Xiang and Du Wei on the back line are not bad, plus the big head and Sun Jihe veterans. , Such a lineup, it's OK.

The media blew the words loudly, and they couldn't change their lack of technical level.

People say that you know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle, but now you don’t know yourself or the enemy, the outcome is naturally unpredictable...

It's a big deal, he gave him the card that the gods descended from. Zhao Yaning said cruelly in his heart.

Regardless of what Alizee said, he also has a reason to win: he has now won the triple crown and the national team has also won the Asian Cup. With such a result, it may be difficult for him to have a second time in his life. ——So many years in football history, how many times have the triple crowns been won? It is the first time for China to win the Asian Cup. Such an opportunity can not be extravagant.

And when his reputation and influence reached its peak, it was also a good time for himself to make demands with the domestic Football Association and General Administration of Sports. At this time, only by sending a big gift to the General Administration of Sports, can they nod their heads on talent reform.

You must win the Olympics.

"Don't worry, Lily, since I went to this competition, the champion must be mine."
