※ ※ ※

No matter how much the media hyped the matter, the game still came as scheduled.

At the famous He Long Stadium in Changsha, the Chinese team welcomed Liverpool as the home team.

Chen Yingxiong didn't want to give face to the Football Association, but he found that there was someone who was also unwilling to give face to the Football Association, and that was the team's head coach Dalglish.

Before the game started, "The King" said murderously in the locker room: "I am telling you this now, and I hope you won't tell others..." He used this as his opening remarks because he was afraid that the players would say this. If you go out and let the Chinese media know about it, it will inevitably cause some disputes.

"You won the last game 4:3. To be honest, do you feel satisfied?"

A group of people looked at each other, a little confused about what the boss meant. Isn’t it just a business competition? Everyone thinks they are here for a vacation, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?

"It seems that you don't understand, so let me tell you honestly, the domestic response to this game is not very favorable to us... You have to remember that we are not here to make money! Making money is for the marketing department. Work, we are here to play games, warm up, and find form for the new season! Whether you are an old player or a new player, everyone must work hard to express themselves. Your performance in the warm-up match will be your playing time in the new season. An important reference!”

This is very serious. When he said this, everyone's expressions became serious. The smile that was quite relaxed before was gone.

In fact, he didn't need to say anything more. At this point, everyone understood - the boss was very dissatisfied with their performance in the last game, especially defensively. It's true to say that when we played against a Chinese team, we were almost tied...

It seems that everyone will go all out in this game.

There's nothing we can do if we don't go all out. England is watching...

Besides, even though it was said to be a business competition, their performance was so poor that they themselves felt disgraced. It's just that I didn't realize it before, but now that the head coach mentioned it, everyone knows it.

At the press conference the day before the game, a reporter asked Gao Hongbo: "What is the guiding ideology of the Chinese team in this game?"

Gao Hongbo's answer was very low-key at that time: "We are here to learn from one of the most successful teams in European football..."

But in the locker room before the game, his words were anything but modest.

"We must show the momentum of the Chinese team. We must dare to fight and grab."

Someone raised his hand to ask, and it was Yang Hao, the team's defensive midfielder: "Gao Zhi, what if we grab too hard and they get injured?"

Many people nodded along.

This is their biggest concern. If the tone of this game is hello, me, hello, everyone, then that's fine.

But now according to the head coach, this means... that he wants to compete with Liverpool on the bayonet!

Then the situation is different. They are a wealthy family and a big-name football star. If they are injured, the impact will be unpleasant, right?

Five years ago, Zhang Wei broke Cisse's leg in a warm-up match with the French team before the World Cup, which caused quite an unpleasant incident. It was originally a friendly exchange competition, but it turned out to be like this...

Gao Hongbo shook his head: "This is a football match. Victory is the only result we pursue. As long as it is not an intentional foul, you don't just go after other people's ankles and knees. I just want you to be tougher when defending. Don't worry about the opponent. Big-name players are shy. In the past two years, how you played in the warm-up matches is how you will play this time."

This is his last warm-up match coaching the Chinese team, and he naturally hopes to get a good ending.

Chen Guofeng met Chen Yingxiong again.

After just finishing the game against Evergrande, he came to the national team to report and participate in training to prepare for the game against Laos on the 28th.

This time he and Chen Yingxiong both started.

"Liverpool sent out its entire starting lineup in the first half! It can be seen that Dalglish attaches great importance to this game!" The commentator's voice was a little excited.

The CCTV commentator for this game was Liu Jianhong again. He really didn't expect to meet Chen Yingxiong again so soon. At the beginning, he thought that the last round of Serie A was his last game to commentate on heroes.

The fans at the scene were very excited to see Liverpool fielding its full lineup, and the cheers in the stands never stopped.

In particular, Chen Yingxiong started again, which made the fans happy.

The Chinese team is also doing its best here.

Since Camacho wanted to inspect the players of the Chinese team in this game, Gao Hongbo naturally had to do his best so that Camacho could see clearly. It's not possible to mix the main players and substitutes, lest Camacho doesn't understand and adds the substitutes to the main players.

However, no one will think that the main players of both sides have to go all out. Liverpool are all big-name stars, they are delicate and expensive, and they cannot afford to be injured. The Chinese team cannot afford to be injured. It will soon be competing against Laos. Although Laos is not a strong enemy, no one wants to miss due to injury. Who knows how long it will take to rest after an injury...

Judging from media reports before the game, the atmosphere of the game was very peaceful. The coaches of both sides kept a low profile and said that this was a friendly match. Gao Hongbo also said that he would learn from Liverpool... I don’t know if he was mocking Liverpool. , you must know that the past few years have been a low point for Liverpool. They have not failed to win a championship and cannot even participate in the Champions League. What can such a team learn?

But from the first minute of the game, everyone felt different...

※ ※ ※

"Liverpool's offensive is very fierce..."

Five minutes later, Liu Jianhong also noticed it, and Liverpool started the game at its own pace without seeming to test it.

Anyway, they kicked off first and could take advantage of the situation and take the initiative into their own hands.

There was no testing this time. In fact, during the game against Evergrande, Liverpool's testing was just out of habit. Given the strength gap between the two sides, if Liverpool takes it seriously, there is no need to test it. They just need to play according to their own playing style. The strong one will naturally become the leader and lead the weak one by the nose.

This game is like that. Although the Chinese team is a national team, the national team is not necessarily stronger than the club. For example, the Brazilian national team still fails to beat Barcelona 10 times out of 10.

In the last game against Evergrande, on the one hand, the head coach changed frequently, which made everyone unable to cooperate. On the other hand, Liverpool actually had contempt for it, especially after leading 4:1, they felt that the game was over. Evergrande There is absolutely no chance of a comeback.

As a result, Evergrande almost overturned the game.

It’s different now. Before the game, head coach Dalglish specifically told the players not to underestimate the enemy, to go all out, and to play with all the main players. Except for Gerrard and Suarez, basically all players from last season The main lineup of the team in the second half.

Only Chen Yingxiong and Charlie Adam are newcomers.

We have played together for a season and are all familiar with each other. When playing against the Chinese team, we don’t even need to say anything, we just know what to do - just play according to our style.

Liverpool's style of play is very simple, with more long passes. Dalglish's tactical thinking is relatively conservative and tends to traditional English football.

But this suits Chen Yingxiong's taste. The football is always flying in the air, and he said there is no pressure.

"It looks like we can see Chen Yingxiong's header skills in this game!" a fan in the stands said excitedly.

※ ※ ※

The Chinese team's starting center backs in this game are Du Zexing and Feng Tangming. These two are the main center back configurations of the Chinese national team today.

However, both of them seemed powerless in front of Chen Yingxiong.

Feng Tangming's height cannot be compared with Chen Yingxiong's. Du Zexing is the person closest to Chen Yingxiong in height, but his body is not as strong as Chen Yingxiong's.

He once had a fight with Chen Yingxiong. They both took off at the same time, and Du Zexing even had a bit of an advantage in position. However, when both of them jumped up, Chen Yingxiong used his physical advantage to squeeze out of Du Zexing's way in the air. , grabbed the spot and formed a header. The football finally flew out against the goal post, which made many people happy in vain, and of course made some people break out in a cold sweat.

When Du Zexing came down, he shook his head at Feng Tangming, meaning that he couldn't compete with that kid because his body was too strong!

Liverpool's high-altitude ball tactics worked quickly.

In the 20th minute, Chen Yingxiong hit the goal with a header. This time he accurately hit the goal frame, forcing goalkeeper Yang Zhi to make a very difficult save.

This save was wonderful, but it also made Yang Zhi lose all his center of gravity. After falling from it, he was unable to get up and make a second save.

Bellamy followed up and swept the football into the empty goal, giving Liverpool the lead!

There was a burst of cheers in the stands, but this time there were not as many cheers as there were at Tianhe Stadium. After all, their country's team fell behind, which is not a good thing. Even if it is a warm-up match and a commercial match, Chinese fans still hope that the national team will perform well.

If you fall behind, you may lose. Who wants to see the team they support lose?

This is different from the situation in Guangzhou. For Guangzhou locals, Evergrande is the home team to support, but for most other people, it is not, so few people care whether Evergrande loses or wins. The Chinese team is different. There is also a matter of "patriotic complex" involved.

※ ※ ※

When Bellamy scored, Chen Yingxiong heard a quiet cheer and knew that this time the home team was really the Chinese team, not Liverpool. Even with him in the Liverpool team, there is no way to reverse this situation. Maybe the cheers will be louder after he scores a goal? But it won't be much bigger.

Sure enough, Chinese fans don’t necessarily want the Chinese team to lose...

However, the Chinese team must lose in today's game, and it will be a big defeat!

ps, a friendly advertisement:

Yesterday one of my readers found me and said that he had written a football novel at Qidian, but the clicks to recommend and collect it were all bleak. The reason is because it started in China. I hope I can recommend him so that he can gain some popularity.

I went to read it, but due to time constraints, I only read a dozen chapters. The writing style is very interesting, and based on my superficial life experience, what I write can be considered true. But as he said, he started in China by teaching a group of children under the age of fourteen...

This story is so unflattering.

It was normal to have poor grades, so I told him my opinion.

I promised to recommend some to him so that more people could see it. If he is not doing it to make money, I hope he can insist on finishing it. After all, there are not many starting points for this type of competitive novels now.

It can be seen from the article that he is a person with ideas and persistence, so in order not to disappoint such a person who insists on writing for his dreams, I still hope that everyone can collect it, read it, and vote.

Consider it an encouragement to him.
