The Era of Emerald

ps1: This is a 30-recommended add-on. I'm busy with work recently, so please forgive me.

ps2: Those who continue to ask for recommendation tickets here say that free books do not require everyone to spend money, so it should be no problem to give more recommendation tickets, right?We are here thank you~

ps3: Let me talk about the book friend group here, the group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verified answer is ntr knight, um, that's it.

In the two full years after taking over the Italian national team, Zoff could only adjust his lineup and tactics through friendly matches, lacking the real training of the qualifiers. The deficiency is naturally unavoidable.

But fortunately, although he lost the first group match with Croatia, Zoff still has a chance to save himself and the fate of Italy, as long as he can lead the team to get rid of Ecuador and Mexico in the next two group matches, Then there is no problem for Italy to qualify for the top sixteen.

Therefore, in the time before the game against Ecuador, Zoff led the players to prepare for the game, trying to use a victory to wash away the bad luck of losing in the first round, so that the team can regain the feeling of winning as soon as possible.

However, before the start of the second round of Group G, let us take a look at the first round of the other groups.

As Italy was reversed and won by Croatia in the World Cup opening game, after breaking out the first super upset in this World Cup, other traditional strong teams seemed to be infected by Italy, and they encountered bitter battles in their World Cup first game. Many teams have even become brothers and sisters with Italy, working hard to contribute to the unpopular cause.

On the second day of the opening of the World Cup, in the first round of Group A, the French team, the quarter-finals of the 1998 World Cup and the runner-up of the European Cup in 2000, proved with practical actions that Italy is not the only one that was defeated by its opponent in the first match of the group stage. The unlucky ones who were upset and defeated, they also suffered a defeat in the first match of the World Cup trip!

France became the second unlucky one, with Trezeguet, Thierry Henry and Cisse three super shooters, as well as the famous players such as Pires, Vieira, Desailly, Thuram and Barthez. Chicken, when they played against Senegal in the first match of the group stage, they were beaten by this African team known as the "French Second Team"!

Since Senegal became a French colony in 1864 and did not resume its status as a sovereign state until 42 years ago, in 1960, Senegal, like many African countries, has a very close relationship with the former suzerain country of France.It is for this reason that when Senegalese players land in European football, they often choose France, which speaks the same language as them and is easier to adapt to, rather than leagues in other countries.

Take this Senegal team participating in the Korea-Japan World Cup as an example. Of the 23 players in the World Cup squad, only two substitute goalkeepers and one substitute striker are from leagues other than France. French, so judging from these two points, Senegal's title of "French Second Team" is really worthy of the name.

Although there are a large number of players in Senegal's team playing for France, compared with France, which has a large number of first-class stars and has extremely rich experience in competitions, this is the first time that this team has entered the World Cup finals.Therefore, before the start of the game, no one was optimistic that this copycat version of the "French Second Team" could defeat the French team, which is much stronger than Senegal, even if the French team lost in the warm-up match against the South Korean team before the World Cup. The same is true of Zidane, a general.

However, the reality gave everyone who was optimistic about France's victory before the game a slap in the face. In this game with extremely different strengths, the Senegalese players who participated in the World Cup for the first time did not have any stage fright. beat France in this World Cup match!

Like the Croatian players who became famous after defeating the defending champion Italy in an upset before, the unexpected result of killing the French team allowed a large number of Senegalese players to enjoy the treatment of becoming famous in World War I.In particular, Diouf, who made the French team's defense exhausted and assisted his teammate Diop to score the winning goal, attracted the attention of many teams, including Inter Milan and Liverpool.

It is conceivable that if Diouf can continue to play well in the next World Cup, then it is only a matter of time before the speedy Senegalese striker joins a wealthy club after the World Cup.

And the French team, which made a fool of themselves in this game, used practical actions to prove the fact to fans all over the world that without Zidane, the commander in charge of the overall situation, no matter how star-studded the French lineup is, it will be impossible. It's just a scumbag with less than five fighting strength...

The French team is not without players who have the strength to organize the team's offensive tasks, such as the old courtier Djorkaeff, and John Micoud, who is called "Zizou II" by the fans because of his outstanding performance in Sampdoria. , Vieira, who serves as the offensive and defensive hub at Arsenal, is capable of provoking this leader.Therefore, the reason why France's offensive chaos in the game against Senegal was not because of the inability of Djorkaf and Vieira, who replaced Zidane as the core of the organization, but because of the romanticism of the French. The faults have the upper hand!

After all, compared with Zidane, who gained the absolute right to speak with the support of Jacques eight years ago, the current French coach Le Maire does not have the courage to support Vieira in the team And Djorkaeff, let other players obey the command of these two.After all, Lizarazu, Desailly and others have much higher status and qualifications in the French team than these two. They will definitely not be convinced by Djorkaeff, a veteran who has declined, and Vieira, a junior. command and dispatch!

It can be said that in terms of personal ability, these French internationals may all be good players, but when they are gathered together, and there is no commander who can convince them all, there is a possibility of trouble Far higher than the probability of concerted efforts.Regarding this point, after the three absolute superstars in the history of French football, Kopa, Platini and Zidane, quit the national team in the previous life, the huge gap in the results of the French team in international competitions can be seen.

It can be seen that these three people can occupy the top position in French football, where there are many famous players, not only because of their extraordinary ability (otherwise, Fontaine, Giresse and Djorkaeff and others have already snatched the class and seized power), but has the temperament enough to convince those national team teammates who pay more attention to personal value than team interests!

Therefore, the French team without Zidane is like the French army without Joan of Arc and Napoleon on the battlefield. The emergence of a leader.
