Chapter 871

According to FIFA's draw, the Chinese team was in the same group as the Netherlands, Cameroon and Denmark in this World Cup, and the three opponents are not weak.

Needless to say, the Netherlands, according to FIFA rankings, currently ranks fourth, Cameroon ranks 19th, Denmark ranks 36th, and the Chinese team ranks 56th. The lowest among the four teams.

This is mainly related to the consecutive defeats in the warm-up match and the East Asian semi-finals in the recent period.

But no team dares to despise China, because this team has Yang Yang.

How strong Yang Yang is, not only fans who are familiar with football, even in the United States, which is known as a football desert, he is also known in the streets.

After helping Real Madrid win the La Liga and Champions League double, everyone is looking forward to this year's World Cup.

Many people think that no matter how the Chinese team plays, unless Messi and Ronaldinho can lead Argentina or Portugal to win the championship, it is difficult to shake Yang Yang's lead in the two awards at the end of this year.

After owning Yang Yang, when the outside media commented on the Chinese team's group, in addition to the Netherlands basically locking in the qualifying name, the Chinese team, Denmark and Cameroon all have a chance to qualify, and the outcome is unpredictable.

It is not difficult to see the attention and awe of Yang Yang by the media and fans all over the world.

For different opponents, the Chinese team also arranged different warm-up matches.

...

After Yang Yang returned to the team, the national team went directly to the training camp in Switzerland after making some adjustments in Beijing.

This is the training location of the Chinese team before the World Cup, and many international players who have studied abroad basically join the team in Switzerland.

Subsequently, the Chinese team played a warm-up match with England, but lost to Capello's team zero-to-one.

Immediately afterwards, the Chinese team played a warm-up match with Germany, and this time they lost even worse, losing 1-3 to Germany, which is aiming to win the World Cup.

Two games and two losses, the warm-up match has been undefeated in six games, and the domestic public opinion has begun to be unable to hold back, but whether it is the top star Yang Yang or the head coach Alihan, they have repeatedly expressed their confidence in the team.

On June 5th, the day before the team set off for South Africa, it ushered in the last opponent of the European training camp, France.

The whole game was under the control of the French team. The Chinese team had only 30% of the ball, but the final result was that the Chinese team beat France 1-0. Yang Yang took a direct free kick and pierced the hole. The goal of the French team.

The defense of the Chinese team in this game was quite well organized. The central defenders headed by Zheng Zhi and Feng Xiaoting, plus goalkeepers Wang Dalei, Zhao Junzhe, Zhou Haibin and Zhao Xuri's three midfielders made the Chinese team's defense very solid.

It is precisely because of the solid defense that the Chinese team was able to seize the few opportunities in the audience. Yang Yang scored a direct free kick, pierced the goal of the French team, and won the first victory in the past six months.

When the news came back to China, public opinion suddenly reversed.

Before the World Cup, facing the mighty French Legion, the Chinese team's defense was extremely tight, which made everyone see the possibility of the national team making a difference in the World Cup.

After playing the French team, China set off for South Africa and ushered in the last warm-up match before the World Cup.

The Chinese team drew with Côte d'Ivoire in a 2-2 draw. Xiang Wang Drogba and midfielder Yaya Toure scored successively. Yang Yang and Chen Tao also scored a goal. The two sides shook hands and made peace.

When Yang Yang was actively preparing for the World Cup with the national team, the transfer market in European football was also surging.

First, Real Madrid announced the termination of the contract with German central defender Metzelder, who will return to the Bundesliga on a free transfer, and then sent winger Marcos Alonso to Premier League Bolton.

The youngster from the youth academy entered the first team last summer, but unfortunately, Real Madrid brought in Maxwell and never left Marcos Alonso a chance. The left-back was forced to leave. abroad.

Raul and Guti also announced their departure from the team one after another. The former will switch to Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga, hoping to continue to compete in the Champions League in Schalke 04.

In terms of signings, Real Madrid's first consideration in the winger position is Benfica's Argentina winger Di Maria.

The 22-year-old winger is very fast, with good footwork and strong personal ability. He shined in the Beijing Olympics and won the attention of fans all over the world. He also performed quite well in the Portuguese Super League.

Real Madrid's technical team is very optimistic about Di Maria, especially the technical director Valdano, who is full of praise for the Argentine compatriot, thinking that he will become a sharp knife in the team's frontcourt offensive line, and it will be Yang Yang. And Robben is a powerful addition.

Di Maria himself is also full of expectations for joining Real Madrid, but the current asking price proposed by Benfica is 40 million euros, hoping that Real Madrid will pay Di Maria's termination fee, but Real Madrid's offer can only be given at most 2,500. million euros.

Valdano's attitude is very tough, saying that Real Madrid will not accept any unrealistic demands.

In addition to Di Maria, Valdano is optimistic about another player from Spain, playing for Athletic Bilbao midfielder Javier Martinez.

The technical director of Real Madrid believes that Javier Martinez has a strong defensive ability, is very general on the court, and is still very young. It is not easy for Athletic to dig people, and in the midfield position, Real Madrid already has two players, Mascherano and Las Diarra.

Therefore, what Benitez wants more is Portuguese central defender David Luiz. He firmly believes that this player can greatly improve the strength of Real Madrid's defense. The Real Madrid coach even publicly stated that if David Luis is introduced, Maicon Will not be required, as Ramos can play as a right-back.

But more people believe that this is Real Madrid's negotiating strategy.

Inter Milan's offer for Maicon is as high as 40 million euros, which is far beyond the range that Real Madrid can accept. Florentino made it clear that Real Madrid could not pay such a high price for a 29-year-old right-back. transfer fee.

In this case, Benitez came forward and expressed his optimism about David Luiz, which is also considered to be Real Madrid taking precautions.

But after sending Metzelder away, Real Madrid's defense should indeed be strengthened.

At the same time, the Spanish media have also released news that Real Madrid's Dutch midfielder Sneijder has officially submitted a transfer application, hoping to transfer and leave the team this summer, which also makes the transfer market include Manchester United, Chelsea, Many teams, including Inter Milan, are flocking to him.

Manchester United in particular, Ferguson has even made a public offer of 30 million euros to Real Madrid, but was sternly rejected by Real Madrid.

After last season's outstanding performance, Sneijder's strength has also been recognized by the world. It is undoubtedly unrealistic to get such an excellent midfielder for 30 million euros.

Even if Sneijder has submitted a transfer application.

After sending away Raul and Guti one after another, with Sneijder's transfer rumors, Real Madrid's signings in the middle of the frontcourt are also imminent.

Sporting Santander's young teenager Canales moved to Real Madrid for 6 million euros, but no one would pin the Galaxy's offensive hopes on him, so Real Madrid also targeted Arsenal's Fabre Garth, and David Silva of Valencia.

But Cesc Fabregas was the first to be excluded, because Wenger and Barcelona reached a tacit understanding, Fabregas also refused to contact Real Madrid, and repeatedly reiterated that if he returned to La Liga, he would only go to Barcelona.

So, after entering June, Real Madrid decisively shifted the target and attacked David Silva.

Finally, in mid-June, before the World Cup, Real Madrid officially signed Spanish midfielder David Silva from Valencia for 30 million euros. The 24-year-old local midfielder will play in the next six months. Wearing a Real Madrid jersey during the year.

Real Madrid officials and a number of media have expressed their welcome to David Silva's joining. Coach Benitez also said that the joining of David Silva will bring Real Madrid a richer offensive means, and To further enhance the team's midfield control.

After receiving the news in South Africa, Yang Yang publicly expressed his welcome to David Silva in an interview with the Spanish media, "He made a very correct choice, he came to be the strongest in Europe, and he was also the best player in Europe. Greatest team."

David Silva, who is also preparing for the World Cup in South Africa, said in an interview with the media that his family are fans of Real Madrid, and it is the greatest honor of his life to be able to join Real Madrid.

"Yang Yang is an incredible player. It's like a dream for me to be teammates with him. I think this is the happiest thing as a player."

…………

…………

Yang Yang is very happy about the signing of David Silva by Real Madrid, because he knows that David Silva is a top midfielder in Europe. To have such a player join, it must be a great help to Real Madrid's midfield strength. Great improvement.

At the same time, he is also looking forward to Kaka's performance in the new season.

After undergoing surgery and recovering from the injury for half a year, Kaka's current state is gradually recovering. He has played well on behalf of the Brazilian team and seems to be gearing up for the new season. Whether it is for Real Madrid or Yang Yang, it is a difference. Pile of good things.

As the World Cup approached, Yang Yang gradually turned his attention to Cameroon, the first opponent in the group stage.

The strength of this African lion is not bad. The team has world-class stars such as Eto'o, as well as well-known players such as Nkuru, Basson, Mbia and Matip. The overall strength is not bad.

In terms of overall strength, Cameroon must be better, but as long as the Chinese team defends well and counterattacks well, they may not have the strength to fight. After all, the Chinese team also has top killers like Yang Yang.

Therefore, the biggest test for the Chinese team in this game is defense.

The most important thing Alihan emphasized in the team meeting before the game was defense, and Yang Yang promised confidently that as long as the team could defend, he would definitely be able to score goals.
