Future King

Chapter 370 Opponent Holland

The top 8 is produced, and each team has a rare two-day game gap.

More than half of the teams have been eliminated, and the remaining teams have also given the players a holiday to relieve the fatigue brought by the competition.

Of course, the Huaxia Hong Kong team did the same, but Li Yu also has a sponsor's event to participate in during the holiday.

For the promotion of the Tenglong series in South Africa, Li Yu, as the protagonist, must be present.

Nike prepared 2,000 sets of clothes for sale on the day of the event, but they still underestimated the enthusiasm of South African fans, and of course, Chinese fans in South Africa.

In an hour, just an hour, all 2,000 pieces of clothes specially prepared for this event were sold out.

Tenglong equipment has become the first series for football lovers. Just like Jordan in basketball, there is no doubt that the symbol of Huaxia Longteng is more attractive than the symbol of that villain.

Li Yu spent her half-day holiday on the platform for the sponsor.

Back to the hotel, Li Yu can finally enjoy her vacation, but he has no other choice but to sleep and have a good sleep.

The following day, the Chinese Hong Kong team has restorative training in the morning and ball training in the afternoon. The main thing is that Eriksson is arranging some targeted tactics, which is more like a tactical meeting outdoors.

The Netherlands is the opponent of Huaxia Hong Kong.

Why do you say that Van Malvik deceives the world? Anyone familiar with Dutch football knows that in the past few months, Van Malvik has been confronting many famous players, media and tactical masters (including Van Gaal and Hiddink) in the Netherlands. Most people think that Robben should hit the right side, because Robben is best at cutting from the right side and shooting with his left foot after the defender. Robben used this move to kill Fiorentina, Manchester United, Lyon and other strong teams in the past season, which scared the whole of Europe! However, Van Malvik is firmly opposed to this. He has always claimed that Robben's suitable position is on the left.

Before the start of the World Cup, Van Malvik repeatedly stressed: "Roben hit the right? No, I think Robben is suitable for playing on the left. It's true that he plays on the right side of Bayern, but the Netherlands has the Dutch staff. It is believed that Van Malvik wants to "defense" Kuyt's position and protect the Dutch right-back with a better-defensive Kuyt (after all, Van der Vere is inexperienced).

But is that the case? The answer is not. In the last battle, Robben came back as a substitute and fought on the right side. Today, Van Malvik asked Robben to start the battle, and he still fought on the right side! Not only that, Van Malvik also asked Kuyt to play left winger to make way for Robben. It was not until then that people knew that around Robben, Van Malvik spent several months creating a huge "smoke bomb!" The reason why he has been hiding the book is to hide this suspense to the end and keep all the "hydebetical enemies" off guard.

But this move is undoubtedly useful. In the area he is best at, Robben has performed extremely well. In the 71st minute, he ran 7,465 meters and completed two shots. Both shots were standard "Roben-style" shots. He took the ball from the right side and cut it horizontally, hit the top of the arc in the penalty area by changing direction and speed, and then shot with his left foot. In the 18th minute, he chose to shoot low in the near corner, and the goalkeeper saved with all his strength and still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net. In the 50th minute, he volleyed the far corner with his left foot and was blocked by the goalkeeper.

This is Robben's unique killing move. In the last game, he also hit the post in this way to help the Dutch team score the winning goal. In fact, Robben appeared on the right side, which was more suitable for him to play his stunt. At this point, Van Malvik chose to be good and did not have his own opinions.

There is reason to believe that Van Malvik did not hesitate to let Kuit "give way" and let Luo play on the right side, just to deal with the imaginary enemy in the quarter-finals (the winner between Brazil and Chile, without too much surprise, will be Brazil). As we all know, the Brazilian team's lineup is balanced and strong. If you want to say that Brazil is a weakness, it is Brazil's left-back Bastos. Bastos was originally a Lyon left-back and was transformed into a left-back by Dunga. Although Bastos's attack power is quite good, there are still some hidden dangers in defense. With Robben all the way, even a five-star Brazil will have an abnormal headache!

In the past season, Robben was a player who deliberately retained strength in the group stage and became a powerful player as soon as he entered the knockout stage. In the game of Bayern's elimination of Fiorentina, Robben scored the decisive goal at the last minute; against Lyon, he also played extremely well. Now, Van Malvik has let Robben refresh himself in the group stage, but he warms up at the end of the game. His purpose is even more obvious, making him a decisive man in the knockout stage.

In the first game of the knockout match, Robben showed his sword. Now, what Robben needs to do is to wait for Brazil calmly. Van Malvik replaced Robben in the 71st minute of the game, and his purpose is probably more obvious. I'm afraid that this pair of generals and apprentices are thinking about China and Hong Kong now!

In history, the Dutch team's front-court offensive talents have emerged one after another. This time alone is gorgeous and enviable. Robben, Snyder, Van der Fart and Van Persie are all world-class.

And look at the four starting lineup of the Dutch team's back line today, Van der Vere, Heitinga, Mattheson and Van Bronckhorst. The most famous of the four is the old captain Van Bronckhorst, and he is also the most stable of these defenders, but because of his old age, he often makes low-level mistakes. Mattaison and Vanderville are not world-class. Although Heitinga participated in the last World Cup in Germany, he also missed defense many times. It can be seen that the back defense of the Dutch team cannot be compared with other rich families in terms of staffing.

Although the Dutch team has focused more on defense in this Cup, the Netherlands has also won four consecutive victories.

But in the four games, they met their opponents Denmark, Cameroon, Japan and Slovakia, and none of them were really world-class giants. And such a team has repeatedly exposed fatal problems in the back defense of the Dutch team.

Not surprisingly, in the eight-to-four game, the Dutch team hit the Huaxia Hong Kong team led by Li Yu. At that time, Konka, Muric and Li Yu will face the ultimate test of the Dutch defense. If the defenders often make the mistake of not keeping an eye on people in this game, it may be difficult for the Orange Army to cross the level of the Chinese Hong Kong team. Presumably Van Malvik also knows the problems in his defense line.

When the real decisive battle comes, the training of the rear defense line will be strengthened, otherwise they will always be the "uncrowned king".

Van Malvik, who is thin-faced and has gray hair, does not have a distinct coaching style. In addition to blocking Fannie the door of the national team, he has not made any personal moves since he took office.

Van Malvik pursues not flying, but stability; his faith is not beauty, but utilitarianism; he has no edges and corners, but he wants to wear out the edges and corners of those big names. The husband said to himself, "I never care what formation my opponent takes. I just want to control my dressing room." Almost every World Cup of the Netherlands disintegrated from within, and Van Malvik wants to break this fate and build the most united and cooperative Legion of Orange.

The Dutch team broke the deadlock 1-0 with Robben's iconic side road, and then they slowly consumed like a miser, without dignity or applause, as long as a result. This Dutch team is not that they can't fly, but they don't want to fly. They deliberately slow down the pace to store their physical strength, abandoning Basten's advanced playing methods of "front-court oppression" and "two-wing strong" and just waiting to have a good fight with the Brazilians next.

Van Malvik knows how to calculate carefully. Before the game was over, he replaced the two trump cards, Robben and Van Persie, and kept them for use when playing tricks with Deng Jia.

In the Dutch team, only Robben and Van Persie were the real attackers. Kuyt invested much more energy in the rush than the breakthrough. Sneed's retreat almost formed a "three backs" with De Jong and Van Bommel, so 4231 became a pyramid-like 4321. If ugliness can bring victory, what's wrong with ugliness? Van Malvick believes in the philosophy of ugliness, and he only needs the "two beauties" of genius, which is enough.

Like a hot-blooded young man who was washed away his original ideal by years and accidents; like an elegant and tender woman who was eroded by money and vanity to remove her original innocence. It can be said to be mature or depraved. In this era of laughing at poverty and not at prostitutes, in this society that regards goodness as cowardice, Van Malvik He made his choice. The Dutch team's innovative "hypnotic football" will make fans yawn, but Van Malvik believes that people will only remember the championship when they wake up.

Judging from the current situation, Van Malvik has injected more utilitarian color into the Dutch team. But for the Legion of Orange, this is not a good thing.

After all, the Dutchman who have been playing offensive football can only have an embarrassing reputation as the "uncrowned king" so far. In the history of the World Cup, most of the people who can achieve good results are playing utilitarian football. This is just like the Brazilian team in 1994, when, under the leadership of Pereira, the Brazilians abandoned the gorgeous samba football and based on the defensive strategy, so that they finally won the championship. Now, the arrogant Dutchman is like the Brazilian team 16 years ago. In order to ensure a one-goal lead, they do not hesitate to pursue an even situation on the scene.

Coincidentally, the Dutchman met a World Cup dark horse team like Huaxia Hong Kong. Can the dark horse defeat the pragmatic Dutch team?

Erickson has repeatedly emphasized the Dutchman's pragmatic style of the game.

There is nothing more terrible than pragmatism. Unlike Chile, they can only attack crazily, which is relatively easy to arrange, but the pracism of the Netherlands has caused the Chinese Hong Kong team a lot of trouble.

It is a certain thing that Li Yu is taken care of. How to take care of and how to defend, and to observe in the game.

Erickson only said one point. If the Chinese Hong Kong team wants to advance to the semi-finals, the players in the team must contribute. They can't always count on Li Yu to contribute alone.

Li Yu also agrees with the head coach's view that the team's performance is very important, especially Konka and Muric. When he is stared at by his opponents, he asked them to perform well.

The head coach and Li Yu talked easily, but it was not easy for the Huaxia Hong Kong team to do this. Along the way, the Huaxia Hong Kong team has been used to Li Yu being able to handle the game alone, and other players pay more attention to defense.

To the surprise of the reporter who explored the secret, in the training class that afternoon, the tactical explanation was completed, and the Huaxia Hong Kong team began the offensive drill, no longer against Li Yu alone, but the overall attack of the whole team.

The media is puzzled. Is it still useful to practice now?

Is this a smoke bomb?

It's all wrong. Erickson is really sharpening his gun. He is arranging the offensive style in advance for the most likely scene and preparing for a rainy day.

After Li Yu was restricted in several games, the Huaxia Hong Kong team can only defend passively. It is very difficult to switch from defense to attack. In the face of the Dutch team, Eriksson tried to find some solutions. Although it seems to be a little sudden, it is always easy to be prepared in the game!

The Chinese Hong Kong team was very abnormal before the war.

The Dutch team is even more worrying. As the match against China Hong Kong in the quarter-finals is about to begin, a civil war scandal broke out again in the Dutch team.

The local Dutch TV station hired a lip expert to analyze the game between the Netherlands and Slovakia, and Van Persie complained to the coach when he was replaced. The conclusion was that Van Persie chattered to coach Van Malvick, "It's Sneed, not me, who should be replaced!" However, before the beginning of the war, Sneid, the other protagonist of the party, firmly believed that "this is impossible."

The cause of the incident came from a substitution adjustment by head coach Van Malvik when the Netherlands played against Slovakia in the 1/8 final. When the game reached 82 minutes, Van Persie was replaced, and from the TV picture, we could clearly see what Van Persie was muttering in his mouth. After the translation of the lip expert, Van Persie told the head coach that he should not be replaced, and that person should be Sneed. Such a sentence has also triggered media speculation about the discordant atmosphere in the Dutch team.

"Robin (Van Persie) assured me that he didn't say those words, so I have no reason to doubt him anymore." "I don't have any problems with him," Sneid said in an interview on Wednesday. He was very disappointed to be replaced, which is understandable. But I don't know why the media exposed such rumors. I don't think it's really a serious matter.

Sneed also admitted that after defeating Slovakia and entering the top eight, the team was united in an unprecedented way. Because everyone realizes that the next opponent the Netherlands will face will be the five-time world championship and the extremely powerful Brazilian team. Therefore, at this time, no one or anything will bother the team.

"Before the game against Brazil, we must be united," Sneid said. "We have set goals for the game, and we will use 120% of our energy to play against Brazil."

The performance of the Dutch team in this World Cup is eye-catching. Under the leadership of Van Malvik, the Orange Army, which advocates full attack and defense, has played extremely calm and pragmatic in this World Cup. But perhaps it is because of such a low-key attitude that the Netherlands can break into the top 8 all the way. And now standing in front of them is a strong Brazilian team. Maybe it's not a good thing for the "contradiction" to explode at this time. But players like Sneed can stand up and clarify the contradictions at the right time. At least from this point of view, the Dutchman has reason to go further.

After successfully advancing to the quarterfinals, the head coach of the Dutch team, Van Malvik, left the starting players in the gym for restorative training, while the substitutes came to the University base to continue training. Looking forward to the quarter-final knockout match with Huaxia Hong Kong, Van Malvik did not hide his confidence in winning. "We are not here to participate in the grand event. If we want to become the world champion, we must defeat strong teams such as Huaxia Hong Kong."

In this year's top eight matches, we will see the main derby of the European Triple Crown, which confirms the great success of utilitarian football in this World Cup. The whole world has learned Mourinho intentionally or unintentionally, which is also a madman's championship cup and the World Cup.

With the madman's defensive layout and counterattack philosophy, the Dutch sexy offensive teams that once made people's hearts flutter have changed. They don't want results, don't want to control the ball and score goals. In contrast, the attack of Huaxia Hong Kong is more special, which maximizes the efficiency emphasized by Mourinho. Van Malvik has become a little worse. He relies on the star's flash to attack. He is not as efficient as teamwork. He is more like Mourinho's first year of Inter: four unlike.

Dutch players can adapt to various styles of football. In any era, they are the protagonists, indicating that their talents and qualifications are first-class. It depends on whose organizational system is more complete and who is more lucky. Sneid and Konka said in unison, "Don't we play well? The first task is to win, which is guaranteed to think of the scene. The former offensive technical players are now Italianized, leaving Italy.

Babel said, "Before, our opponents took the destruction of the ball as the starting point. We can't help it, but if we touch Brazil, it will be completely different." It's so idealistic that today's Netherlands can't focus on attacking.

Listen to Sneed's opinion. He was Mourinho's spokesperson on the scene. "I saw the Dutch media criticize our words. In the Netherlands, only if you win six or seven goals can you win. The scene control and beauty are the culture of Ajax and Dutch football. As long as you don't suppress your opponent to win, you don't deserve to win. After arriving in Italy, I have changed a lot. I have learned a lot from Inter. For example, you kill your opponent without controlling the ball, which shows that you have a higher level of ability. We played average in some games this season, but the results were good. In the end, I picked up the trophy, and people stopped talking about the process of winning. Of course, I want to win beautifully, but if I can't, I'm equally happy. I care more about the result, not the process. I'm not the only one in the team who has this idea. So I didn't expect too many wonderful matches in the World Cup at all. All teams are now very nervous about the deployment and details. It's too early to make comments now. Let's see what people will say at the end.

Sneed said what Van Malwick said. The Dutchman wanted to change the idea of playing football and entertaining the audience, and learn to fight. "We were eliminated by Portugal four years ago, and we didn't concentrate at all. This time I believe we can go further. In the group stage, I said Ba, A, De are Popular, followed by us. Now I don't predict. I'm the same as the Inter era. No matter who the opponent is, as long as I play well, I don't need to pay attention to the opponent. We can go to the end."

The first match between the Netherlands and China Hong Kong in the top 8 is about to take place. Can the Netherlands or China Hong Kong laugh to the end?
