Chapter Fifty-Ninth: The Successor

Although Singapore is relatively weak, Gao Hongbo was very cautious when preparing for the match and repeatedly asked everyone to adapt to the venue. On the contrary, the opponent in this game is not the main aspect that Gao Hongbo is worried about. The biggest challenge is the venue factor. The Garland-Besar Stadium where the game will be held is not a natural turf, but an artificial turf made by mixing with natural grass. Not to mention Zhou Tiancheng and the others, most of the local international players in the team have never played on the artificial pitch. Although many venues of Chinese Super League clubs are often criticized as "vegetable fields", they are indeed relatively bad, but at least they can use natural turf for competitions.

Strictly speaking, artificial turf is not suitable for professional games. Usually, 70% of artificial turf is panicle-shaped grass, and a large amount of quartz sand will be poured in during the turf laying process. The rules are a trivial matter. The spikes of professional players step on them, and the irregular field will aggravate the risk of players being injured in fierce fighting.

But with the current field conditions like this, even if Gao Hongbo was worried about his players being injured, he could only obey such objective conditions and overcome them tactically.

It can be seen from the starting lineup of this game that Gao Hongbo removed Jiang Hao and put two high center forwards Gao Lin and Yang Xu on the front line. The formation became 4-4-2. There is only one requirement: make full use of height , Just hit it with a header!

From the 1980s to the beginning of this century, crossing from the side and high-altitude bombing in the middle has always been the tried-and-tested tactic of the Chinese team against Southeast Asian teams. With this new trick, the Chinese team can often score big victories Therefore, the nickname "China's head team" popular among the media and fans came from this.

The Chinese team still has a height advantage, but this method does not meet Gao Hongbo's tactical requirements. Originally, he didn't want to use it at all. After all, it is not good for the overall integration of the national team. But for the sake of this game, Gao Hongbo doesn't mind making expedient compromises. Because he knows very well that any game of the national team cannot be played, otherwise there will be voices of doubt from the Football Association down to the media fans. Gao Hongbo, who has been in Chinese football for many years, knows the pros and cons too well. Even the 2002 national football team, which is still praised to the sky, beat the Maldives 10:1 in the top 20 match, and it caused a lot of scolding just because it was scored by a big belly.

Gao Hongbo didn't want to seek scolding for nothing, so his request was very clear, he would do his best, from the first minute of the game, he could score as many goals as he could, and let everyone see the team's attitude!

However, in the first half, the Chinese team's offense encountered a lot of resistance. Singapore's tight shrinking defense made the Chinese team's offense frequently blocked. It was not until the 41st minute that the Chinese team scored their first goal. Zhou Tiancheng and Hao Junmin made continuous passes in the middle, mobilizing the naturalized high school defender Shayf who is 1.9 meters tall on the Singapore defense line, and then sent it to the side. Go up and break the goal.

The first goal opened up the situation and began to disintegrate Singapore's will to resist. In the second half, the offensive rhythm of the Chinese team improved again. It was obvious that Gao Hongbo was not satisfied with the team scoring only one goal in 45 minutes.

But with the opening of the first goal, it will be easy to handle. At least the Singaporean players' mentality of trying to get away with a draw has been reduced by more than half. Now if they want to get a draw, they must attack. But the situation simply does not allow them to have such fantasies.

Don't talk about taking the initiative to press out and attack, even if you stick to it like you are now, you can't defend it.

The Chinese team scored three goals in the 56th, 66th and 78th minutes.

After the score expanded to 4:0, Gao Hongbo signaled that the Chinese team began to suppress the rhythm, and at this time, Singapore had long been unwilling to fight.

The Singaporean fans at the Garland-Besar Stadium had long since lost their motivation to cheer, and less than a hundred Chinese fans became the only celebrators in the stadium, most of whom were brought by Yang Cheng to cheer for Zhou Tiancheng International students.

They work harder than anyone else.

After the game, the other players of the Chinese team arranged to fly back to China. Zhou Tiancheng chose to stay and start his vacation, but the coaching staff did not insist.

After the national team left, Yang Cheng found Zhou Tiancheng on purpose and told him about his thoughts on communicating with Chu Yunling.

After hearing this, Zhou Tiancheng said with a smile: "Lao Yang, I'm just thinking about you. I've decided that one day I won't be able to survive in Dortmund, and the next stop is the Premier League. You go and help me make a first stop. Haha! "

Yang Cheng also smiled: "It's just Brother Cheng, I won't be able to help this club from now on, in fact, I'm quite reluctant."

"Then what's the matter, why don't you stay?" Zhou Tiancheng asked casually.

Yang Cheng hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head slightly.

Zhou Tiancheng patted him heavily on the shoulder: "Don't worry, fuck you, why do you really think my club can't survive without you? I'm waiting for you to recruit a group of people for me in the UK."

...

Phuket, Thailand.

Zhou Tiancheng and Chu Yunling were lying on the beach. Zhou Tiancheng gently massaged Chu Yunling to help her regain the flexibility of her leg muscles. While pressing his heart, he was planning the successor of the club.

Although he told Yang Cheng that there is no difficulty, in fact, it is really difficult to find this role. First of all, he must have enough time and often organize everyone to watch the ball together. This is not easy. Except for major competitions, almost no one can maintain full attendance in every game on weekdays. In addition, they must be trustworthy, have certain organizational skills, and the order of watching games must not be chaotic, and they must be able to calm down the venue.

Zhou Tiancheng has been thinking about it, and when he thinks about it, he is fascinated.

"Ah! Ah Cheng, what are you doing?"

Zhou Tiancheng quickly came back to his senses, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiao Ling, I was distracted just now. Does it hurt? I'll rub it."

Chu Yunling snorted softly: "You're still distracted when you're with me, what good things are you thinking about?"

Seeing Chu Yunling's obviously aggressive eyes, Zhou Tiancheng quickly said: "I was thinking, Xiao Ling, you see Lao Yang is gone, no matter what the club says, I have invested money and effort, and it can be regarded as our family. , there is no reliable person to look after it..."

"Hmph, you're thinking of me? I was helping you, why, you still want to throw it all on my head?"

"Besides you, I can't trust the passionate student party in the club either!" Zhou Tiancheng laughed. Please your wife with a correct attitude.

"I don't want to care about it!" Chu Yunling said directly.

Zhou Tiancheng scratched his head: "Xiaoling, think again..."

"Zhou Tiancheng, am I your wife? How do other people put pressure on their wives, why do you want to add burden?"

Hearing that Chu Yunling called him by his first name instead of his nickname, Zhou Tiancheng knew that there was no room for it, he could only compromise.

A figure flashed in Zhou Tiancheng's mind. He hesitated for ten minutes with his mobile phone, and finally dialed it.
