Stop the ball ten meters away, the goal depends on Meng

"Look at this Costa Rica team. Their strongest position is... goalkeeper Navas. He has only conceded two goals in four games, and one was a penalty kick. He has conceded the fewest goals in this World Cup. One of the goalkeepers.”

At the Chinese team’s preparation meeting, assistant coach Gallego began to analyze the opponent’s key players:

"This season, while playing for Levante, he played 37 times in La Liga, kept 17 clean sheets, and made 160 saves with a save success rate of 80.1%. He ranked first among the goalkeepers in the five major European leagues. He also defeated He defeated Atletico Madrid’s Thibaut Courtois and Real Madrid’s Casillas and was elected the best goalkeeper of the La Liga season.”

Camacho added:
"I heard that Real Madrid is ready to spend money to buy someone. It is definitely impossible for an excellent goalkeeper like him to continue playing at Levante!"

None of the Chinese team players dared to say anything.

Although the deal has not yet been reached, how many players can Real Madrid refuse?
The goalkeeper opposite is a level that can start in Real Madrid!

Gallego continued:
"Special attention also needs to be paid to the offensive end. Their captain Brian Ruiz has played for Fulham in the Premier League for a long time. He is 188cm tall and is very good at confrontation. He can play in various positions in the frontcourt. He was also the goalkeeper of Costa Rica's victory over Italy. Football hero..."

"There is also forward Joel Campbell, who plays for Arsenal but is on loan to Olympiacos. It was his pass and shot that allowed Costa Rica to defeat Uruguay 3:1 in the first round of the group stage, laying the foundation for advancing to the knockout rounds. …”

Su Changwei has a vague impression of the 22-year-old young forward.

AC Milan drew 1:1 with Olympiacos in the fourth round of the Champions League group stage. The opponent's goal seemed to have been scored by Campbell!
Gallego took another look at the information in his hand:

"The good news is that their main defender Duarte was suspended due to a red card, and another central defender Miller was also injured, so their defense strength will definitely be weakened a lot, and we should have more strength. More time on the ball and more shooting opportunities..."

Su Changwei looked at the opponent's lineup and made a suggestion to the head coach:
"In this game, we can make appropriate rotations and let some of the main players who have been playing continuously take a rest."

The temperature of the entire conference room suddenly rose several degrees.

Each team's roster has a total of 23 people. Although there are three substitute places in each game, there will still be people who do not play from beginning to end.

Even though they know they are a substitute, who doesn't want to appear on the stage of the World Cup and earn some face?
If you really win the championship in the end, you can't say to your relatives and friends after returning to China: "I have been passing towels to everyone"...

Camacho looked shocked and hesitated for more than ten seconds before confirming to him again:
"Are you serious, Awei?"

Su Changwei nodded seriously:

"I was absent from the two group matches before. It was the hard work of everyone that allowed us to maintain the good situation we are in now. So in the next game, I will use all my strength to let everyone rest when they need it and experience the World Cup when they need it. ."

A group of fringe international players were already beaming with joy and cheered:

"Long live Viagra!"

Camacho is still in disbelief:
"This is the quarter-finals of the World Cup!"

Su Changwei shrugged his shoulders:

"Don't worry, judging from the results of the previous four rounds, the strength gap between the strong teams and the weak teams in this World Cup... is really not as big as imagined!"

He suddenly thought of something again and added to the coaching team:
"In the past few days, I will give the frontcourt players additional practice in shooting and crossing, and determine the starting lineup based on the success rate!"

"Dear viewers, this is the training base of the Chinese national team in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I am Ronaldo, a frontline reporter. Today I will lead you to visit the training scenes of the national football team..."

He Wei, nicknamed "Ronaldo" by netizens, walked into the training ground with a smiling team of photographers.

Today's Chinese team has developed confidence and confidence in consecutive battles and victories in the past two years, and it has long been no longer necessary to implement orders for fully closed training.

With the approval of Su Changwei and Cai Zhenhua, this training base will be open to media from all countries for 30 minutes every day.

He Wei made a rough estimate and found that there were at least 50 camera teams today, totaling at least 200 people.

Media professionals of all hair and skin colors gathered together, and the training ground was buzzing with activity.

Of course, the staff of the Football Association did not miss this opportunity and set up multiple interview points around the training ground, providing reporters with a good place to hide from the sun.

Of course, the background boards in these places are covered with the Chinese team’s sponsored brand logos, and every bottle of water comes from the sponsored brand, so every penny of the sponsor father’s money is bound to be maximized!

In fact, the fathers who were the sponsors were already overjoyed.They never dreamed that the Chinese team would not only qualify from the group stage, but also defeat the Netherlands and advance to the quarterfinals!
There is even a huge probability of advancing to the semi-finals!
This sponsorship fee is so worth it!

"Now our Chinese team players are undergoing special training on crosses from the wing..."

He Wei stared at the training ground for a full 10 minutes. A total of 9 wide players completed 27 passes, but in the end, only 4 were successfully passed to the forwards!
Gao Lin, Wu Lei, Yang Xu, and Su Changwei, who had been waiting for eternity in the penalty area, almost fell asleep!
Among these poor 4 crosses, Gao Lin missed the target and Wu Lei kicked the goalkeeper directly. Only Yang Xu and Su Changwei successfully scored the ball...

"Brother Wei! In the past three days of shooting training, I have been the second shooter in the team after you!"

Looking at the excited Yang Xu, Su Changwei immediately fulfilled his promise:

"As long as you can maintain this state in training tomorrow, you will 100% be the starter in the next game!"

He Wei on the sidelines looked suspicious of life.

He glanced at the cameraman:

"The post-editing... I'm afraid I have to work overtime!"

On July 7, the first quarter-final match started between France and Germany.

This is a true showdown, and it certainly attracts the attention of the world.

In the 12th minute, the German team assisted Hummels with a header from a free kick by Kroos, rewriting the score to 1:0.

Then the two sides started to attack, and the ball possession rate was completely [-]-[-].

But the German team, which had a one-goal advantage, obviously played more confidently and successfully maintained the 1:0 score until the last minute of the game!

The two super teams played a high-level duel, but neither the broadcasters nor the fans were satisfied.

The two sides only completed 21 shots in total, most of the offense was resolved outside the penalty area, and there were only 2 yellow cards.

The two sides played very cautiously, and there was no fierce scene where anyone fell off their backs. It was obviously not enough to be called "Mars hitting the Earth"!
Of course, the German team has something to say. On the first day before the game, seven players in their team collectively contracted the flu, and many others suffered from throat inflammation, which had a considerable impact on the game.

Four hours later, the second quarterfinal match began between Brazil and Colombia.

The hosts, who had the right time and place, took a corner kick from Kaká in the 7th minute. Varane took the top shot from the front, and Silva from the back shot easily broke through the opponent's city.

In the 67th minute of the second half, Ronaldo, who was eager to score, tackled Hulk and received a yellow card. Brazil got a free kick opportunity 30 meters away from the goal.

This distance was obviously a little further, but it was not difficult for David Luiz. Pengtou directly hit the goal with a powerful kick, successfully expanding the score, 2:0!

Colombia, which was two goals behind, became more and more anxious. Full-back Zuniga hit Neymar's tailbone with his knee from behind during a scramble. Brazil's new generation king was directly taken to an ambulance on a stretcher and escorted by special police all the way. Went to the ICU ward...

What's outrageous is that Zuniga, who almost eliminated Neymar, didn't even get a yellow card!
Ronaldo, who was so hot before, scored a penalty kick at the last moment, but it was to no avail!
He ended his first World Cup with 6 goals!

After the first quarter-final match day ended, the Chinese team submitted the starting lineup for the next day to the event organizers.

The goalkeeper is the third goalkeeper Yan Junling.

The three defenders are Mei Fang, Li Xuepeng and Ren Hang.

The two wing-backs are Zhang Chengdong and Rong Hao.

Qin Sheng partners with Wu Xi in the double midfielder to protect Su Changwei.

Yang Xu got his wish and entered the starting lineup, and Wei Shihao, a 19-year-old youngster studying abroad in Portugal, served as the second forward.

This is a set of 3412!

I originally thought that opponents and foreign media would be very surprised by this significantly rotated starting lineup, but Costa Rica behaved very calmly.

This made Camacho feel frustrated:

"I changed the formation to three central defenders. You guys should give me some reaction!" (End of Chapter)
