Chapter 220 Two consecutive victories in the group stage
On August 8, the day after the opening match, the national team ushered in the second group match that followed.

The opponent in the second game was the Ivory Coast team that just suffered a disastrous defeat yesterday.

Ivory Coast, commonly known as Cote de Va, is a strong team in Africa. The team just won the runner-up in the African Championship last year.

However, due to the current overall strength of the African team, Côte d'Ivoire was divided into six teams in this World Championship, and is the weakest team in Group C.

Before Du Zhe joined the Huaguo men's basketball team, the national team regarded Kote Deva as an opponent that must be defeated in the group. Of course, Kote Deva also regarded the national team in this way.

It's just that the situation is different now. After the national team's first match against the last runner-up Xila men's basketball team, Cote de Va has no hope of defeating the Huaguo men's basketball team.

Due to the continuous rotation of the two battles before and after, Deng Huade also fine-tuned the starting lineup in this game.

Du Zhe, who played the entire game last time, sat on the bench today, and Wang Qi played as the starting small forward.

Even without Du Zhe, the national team is not worthless in terms of strength. Deng Huade naturally wants Du Zhe to get some rest time.

Liu Wei, Sun Yue, Wang Qi, Da Zhi, Ah Lian, this is the starting lineup for the national team today.

As for Côte d'Ivoire, compared with the national team's opponents yesterday, their starting lineup is obviously much poorer.

The starting point guard Mologu Diabate is 1 meters tall and is currently playing in Europe.

It's just that, compared with any player in the other strong teams who are playing in the European giants and top leagues, Diabate is currently only playing in the Gaul's secondary league.

The French Ligue [-] itself is not at the top of the major leagues in Europe. Diabet can only play in France's secondary league, and its strength is indeed not good enough.

And his partner shooting guard - Stefan Konett, played for the ABC fighter team in the national league.

Kornet, who is 1 meters tall, is definitely a top player in the Côte d'Ivoire's domestic league. He not only led the team to win the league championship many times, but also won the non-championship MVP.

However, in the last disastrous defeat against Turkey, Kornet did not show convincing strength. He made 8 of 2 shots and 5 of 0 shots from beyond the three-point line, scoring only 2 points.

At the small forward position, Guy Eddie, who is 1 meters tall, played as the starting small forward.

Eddie is only 21 years old this year and is the youngest player in the entire Ivory Coast team. He is still playing for the University of Midland team.

However, the starting power forward of the Côte d'Ivoire team is an old acquaintance of many players in today's national team, and is also familiar to many Chinese fans.

This player is Hervey Ramizana who is currently playing in the CBA.

Ramizana is 2 meters tall. Although he is a little thin in the interior, he has excellent bounce and strong shot-blocking ability, which is enough to make up for the disadvantage of his body.

In 2004 he participated in the NBA draft, but was not selected by the team.

He was subsequently signed by the Philadelphia 76ers, but he never got a chance to play in the NBA.

Raminaza, who was frustrated in the NBA, went to the CBA to seek gold and played for the Golden Team and Ronggang Team.

Last season, he averaged 25.7 points, 9.9 rebounds, 3.8 blocks, and 3.1 assists per game. At the same time, he won the title of league block leader. He can definitely be regarded as a high-quality foreign aid in the CBA.

And Raminaza's partner in the interior is 2 Mehmet Kone, who is currently playing in the Turkish domestic league.

Judging from the strength of Kote Dewa, even if Du Zhe is not sent, the Huaguo men's basketball team has a relatively high degree of confidence in defeating them.

Moreover, winning the first game also relieved a lot of pressure on the national team, so Deng Huade was confident and asked Du Zhe to rest on the bench for a while.

After all, there are still three strong teams to deal with, and Du Zhe may play all three games.

After the start of the game, the national team took the lead in obtaining the ball. After receiving the ball, Da Zhi made a mid-range shot and opened the scoring for the first time.

However, the Côte d'Ivoire team did not lose the wind either. Point guard Diabate immediately responded with a three-pointer to overtake the score.

Wang Qi, who has been sitting on the bench for the last few games, finally ushered in the opportunity to perform today.

He broke through the Cote d'Ivoire defense line, went inside to cause damage, and scored a "2+1".

Next, the scores of the two teams rose alternately, and the national team slowed down and used positional warfare to limit the opponent's performance.

African teams like Côte d'Ivoire have an advantage over the Huaguo men's basketball team in terms of physical fitness, but their weakness is that they play without rules, and their tactics and coordination are not mature enough.

This also determines that Cote Deva likes to score points in chaos through chaotic battles, and is good at beating the master to death with random punches.

When the national team slowed down and fought positional battles with them, the attacking ability of the Ivorian players was obviously at a disadvantage.

Then the two teams launched a fierce tug-of-war, and the point difference has been difficult to expand.

Kote Dewa mainly relied on grabbing offensive rebounds and fast-break counterattacks to score points, while the national team relied on the two teams of the United Arab Emirates and Wang Qi to withstand the impact of their opponents.

After the first quarter, the national team took a temporary lead at 21:17.

Du Zhe sat on the bench and watched the intense first quarter leisurely, chatting from time to time with substitutes such as Guo Ailun and Su Wei who could not play.

After experiencing one game after another, Du Zhe's status in the national team is getting higher and higher. Currently, only Dazhi and Arab League can barely beat him.

However, Da Zhi's age is there. Even if he starts every game, he can't last too long in fierce international competitions.

And Ah Lian is introverted, and he doesn't communicate too much with his teammates.

On the contrary, Du Zhe gradually won the recognition of his teammates in the national team as the game went on.

In addition, the impression his predecessor left on everyone was so bad that the contrast is now obvious. Many people are commenting behind his back that Du Zhe is now stronger and less tempered.

Soon the second quarter started, the national team made slight adjustments to the lineup, and Su Wei was replaced to strengthen the protection of rebounds.

But after the opening, the national team suddenly collapsed on both offense and defense.

Not only did they fail to score a point, but they were scored five points in a row by their opponents. At 22:21, the Côte d'Ivoire team even achieved a lead at the beginning of the second quarter.

In desperation, Deng Huade could only call a timeout.

After paying the timeout, he said to Du Zhe with a little guilt: "Du, I didn't expect you to be allowed to play in the second quarter."

"Haha, coach, what are you talking about? It's not natural for players to play." Du Zhe didn't care.

After the timeout, Deng Huade rearranged his tactics and replaced Zhou Peng, a substitute, to let Du Zhe play again.

After Du Zhe came on the field, the strength of the national team's perimeter defense instantly rose to a new level.

The Côte d'Ivoire team, unable to adapt for a while, began to fight on their own like headless chickens on the offensive end.

On the offensive end, Du Zhe and Ah Lian connected again. The two of them, inside and outside, instantly stabilized the situation.

Facing Kote Dewa, who was several levels weaker than Xila, Du Zhe played like a stroll in the court, playing with ease.

Although he didn't take many shots, he definitely gained something when he did. This caused Cote d'Ivoire's newly launched counterattack momentum to die down in an instant.The Côte d'Ivoire team, which scored five points in a row at the beginning of the second quarter, only scored 14 points in the entire quarter.

The national team also established a huge lead with a score of 25:14 in this quarter.

At 46:31 in the half, the national team led by 15 points.

杜哲第二节出场7分钟，3投3中，命中3记三分，单人砍下9分1板1助2断。

Entering the third quarter, Du Zhe returned to the court to rest again.

And the national team, which holds a huge lead, is also holding its ground this time and playing steadily.

Wang Qi, who reappeared, hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, further widening the point difference.

Although the Côte d'Ivoire team also strengthened their tactical cooperation and improved their defensive strength, it was too late to face the Huaguo men's basketball team, which was already stronger than them.

Throughout the third quarter, the national team played steadily and calmly. Wang Qi continued to score after regaining his touch on the outside, further widening the point difference between the two teams.

At the end of the third quarter, the national team once again had the upper hand at 25:20.

The score of the two teams also reached 71:51, a full 20 points difference, which basically turned the fourth quarter into garbage time.

The opportunity was rare, Deng Huade took this opportunity to train several young people in the team.

Guo Ailun, Zhou Peng and others who have been sitting on the bench once again have the opportunity to play.

Côte d'Ivoire also took the opportunity to narrow the gap by a few points.

However, Deng Huade accepted it as soon as he saw it, and soon rotated the main players to play again, stabilizing the situation of the game.

In the end, the national team defeated Kote Deva 86:74 in this game, winning two consecutive victories since the start of the World Championships.

本场比赛，杜哲出战7分钟，得到9分1板1助2断。

However, all of his 9 points were obtained when Kote Dewa counterattacked, which had a great impact on the direction of the game.

而这场比赛国家队中阿联的发挥依旧稳定，全场17中9，外加罚球11中8，砍下26分9个篮板。

Wang Qi, who made a rare start today, also felt good. He made 13 of 7 shots and 5 three-pointers. In addition, he made 7 of 6 free throws and scored 25 points and 7 rebounds.

Among other players, Liu Wei and Ding Jinhui performed equally well.

刘伟9中4，得到12分3板2助。

丁锦晖5中2，得到7分7板，其中有3个篮板是前场篮板。

After this battle, the Chinese men's basketball team won two consecutive victories, and the situation of qualifying for the group was excellent.

In several other games in Group C on the same day, Bodoli lost to Greece 80:83.

Barea scored 20 points for Porto from each team, and Ramos contributed 16 points and 8 rebounds.

In the Greek team, European Kobe Spanoulis swept away the decline in the opening game. He made 12 of 8 shots from the field and 9 of 8 free throws. He scored 28 points and led the team to victory.

Although the Greek wax team won the first victory of this World Championship without any risk, they were forced by the Huaguo men's basketball team in the first game. The dangerous pass reflects the weakness of this powerful European team.

Another pair of strong dialogues in Group C staged a slow-paced defensive battle.

In the end, the host Turkey defeated Screw 65:56 and had the last laugh.

Turkey was able to win this crucial game, and the two NBA players in the team took the greatest credit.

特科格鲁得到14分3板3助，伊利亚索瓦得到10分10板。

At this point, the first two rounds of Group C are over, but the situation in the entire group is still confusing.

1. Turkey (2 wins, 0 losses)
2. Huaguo (2 wins and 0 losses)
3. Screws (1 win and 1 loss)
4. Xiwa (1 win, 1 loss)
5. Porto Lige (0 wins and 2 losses)
6. Côte d’Ivoire (0 wins, 2 losses)
After the game, the national team also got a little respite.

The next game will not start until the next day on August 8. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the team can finally take a break.

Especially for the main players except Du Zhe, they all played more than 30 minutes in these two games, and they really need to rest and adjust.

So the next day, the national team did not arrange any high-intensity training for several main players.

Deng Huade also asked the team's medical staff to give several main players physical therapy to relax, reduce the fatigue accumulated in the body, and reduce the risk of injury.

Although he won two games in the group stage, Du Zhe found that the rewards provided by the system were mediocre, except that he would give some system points if he didn't win a game.

It seems that if you want to get more rewards, you still have to compete in the knockout rounds.

only……

There are so many strong teams in the knockout round, and with the strength of this national team, I'm afraid it won't be able to go very far.

Not to mention the knockout round, Du Zhe felt a headache just thinking about the remaining opponents in this group.

It's easier to say that Bo Duolige was defeated by his previous subordinates after all.

But screws and Turkey are not easy to deal with.

Although the screw team's book strength does not seem to be as good as Xila, but after the two battles with Portoligo and Turkey, Du Zhe found that they are the existence that made a fortune silently.

Although the overall rhythm of the team is slow, if they play steadily, they will not win a big victory, but they will not lose a big defeat. Anyone who wants to win against them will probably have to shed a layer of skin.

As for the Turkish men's basketball team, it is even more difficult to deal with.

After the two games, the national team also analyzed the videos of their first two games.

What can be concluded is that the strength of the Turkish team is definitely at the top level in the entire Group C. Even if the national team has a perverted player like Du Zhe, it will not be easy to win against them.

What's more, Turkey's host is not in vain. The referee will be more or less inclined to them at critical moments, which will inevitably make the national team's low chance of winning even lower.

Thinking about how even if he breaks out of the tight encirclement, there are still Xibanya, Litao Bowl and even the American Dream Team waiting before entering the knockout round. Du Zhe feels dizzy for a while.

However, he didn't want to waste too much energy on these illusory things, so after a little tangled up, he turned his attention away.

In the evening, after dinner at the hotel, the coaching staff, team leader Dayao, and a few leaders of the national team that Du Zhe didn't know came to mobilize before the battle.

What he said is nothing more than that the next match against Hatorikkake is very important. If you win Hatorikkake, you can ensure your qualifying spot. I hope everyone will put down their burdens and perform well to win glory for the country.

Du Zhe was drowsy after listening to it, bored and embarrassed to turn on his mobile phone to chat with netizens, so he could only use the system in his mind to pass the time.
