In fact, the 1-2 loss to the French team is an acceptable score.

But Lippi was too conservative, especially Cai Jian scored a goal in the end.

At this time, if the offense is strengthened, the score may be evened.

Countless Huaxia fans thought this way, so some fans began to criticize Lippi on the Internet.

There are even celebrities who are even more angry at Lippi wearing a scarf, such as the famous commentator Zhang Lu.

The atmosphere accused Lippi of being conservative, and Tian Runtao played too late.

He questioned Lippi's use of personnel, and did not maximize the strength of the Huaxia team.

This time the game had a great impact on Li Long. He did not expect Lippi's tactical philosophy to be so conservative.

For the sake of goal difference, Li Long gave up the chance to equalize, which was never expected by Li Long.

In Li Long's mind, Lippi is the world's top coach.

On the night of the game, Li Long left the hotel and went to a local bar to relax.

Li Long found that there were a lot of Chinese fans in the bar, and there were also many Croatian fans.

Because of the Croatian and Nigerian teams, the game is going on.

Because of the World Cup, many bars are full.

Li Long went through it once, of course he knows how well the Croatian team performed in this World Cup.

Li Long watched the game intently and listened to the cheers of the Croats around him.

Suddenly he felt someone pat him on the shoulder. Li Long turned his head and saw that it was a Chinese.

"Excuse me! Is it Coach Li Long?" the man asked.

Li Long showed a surprised expression. You must know that he is just the Chinese coach of the coaching staff.

Generally speaking, the eyes of fans are on the players or the head coach, and few people pay attention to the members of the coaching staff.

Li Long didn't expect that this person recognized him and even called out his name.

In fact, Li Long used to be the head coach of the National Youth Team and the National Olympic Team, and both teams had good results.

Li Long still underestimated himself, Li Long is still quite famous now.

"Yes! I'm Li Long, what can I do?" Li Long replied.

"Oh~ It's really Coach Li Long! Hello, my name is Wang Yandong! I'm your fan." Wang Yandong said excitedly.

In fact, Li Long also knew that when he said he was his fan, it should be a polite remark!

"thanks, thanks!"

The two shook hands politely, and Wang Yandong continued.

"I watched today's game. Although I lost, it wasn't a bad loss. After all, it's the French team!"

"I want to ask, is it possible for us to advance this time?"

After speaking, Wang Yandong was looking forward to watching Li Long, but at this time, Li Long was at a loss because of his different coaching philosophy.

Li Long himself suddenly lost confidence. He was really worried about Lippi, and there was no way to lead the Huaxia team to advance.

But at this time, Li Long could not say such morale-damaging words.

"Of course there is no problem!" Li Long pretended to be confident.

"You have to know that the French team is recognized as the favorite to win the championship, and we only lost one goal." Li Long said in detail.

"And our remaining opponents are the Peruvian and Danish teams. To be honest, their strength is mediocre."

"First of all, let's talk about the lineup of the Peruvian team. Their biggest stars are Farfan who plays for Lokomotiv Moscow, and Carrillo from Benfica."

"No matter how you look at it, we are better. We have so many recognized talented players, such as Cai Jian, Tian Runtao, etc. The lineup is definitely stronger than us."

"In terms of healing and coaching ability, our head coach is Lippi! A world-class coach!"

"In comparison, the Norwegian team puts more pressure on our Huaxia team."

"They have Tottenham midfielder Eriksen, Schalke 04 Paulsen, Dortmund Delaney, Chelsea centre-back Christensen."

"In terms of overall strength, the Norwegian team is not bad. This game will be a key battle, which is related to which team can advance."

"But I still have confidence in our Huaxia team. I believe our players are even stronger."

Li Long expressed his own point of view, but in fact Li Long just said it casually.

But Wang Yandong was very excited after listening.

The next two people were talking and laughing while watching the game.

"Coach Li Long! Who do you think will win between the two teams?" Wang Yandong asked suddenly.

"Of course it is the Croatian team! There is a big gap between the two teams." Li Long subconsciously replied.

Li Long knew that the Croatian team made it to the finals of this World Cup before being eliminated by the French team, and finally won the runner-up in the World Cup.

But Li Long's resolute answer shocked Wang Yandong.

Because in Wang Yandong's subconscious mind, the Nigerian players are all black and tough.

All of them can run and jump, and the Croatian team are all veterans.

How could the Croatian team, an old team, be the opponent of the Nigerian team.

The game continued, and in the end the Croatian team did have the last laugh as Li Long said.

But the Croatian team won relatively reluctantly. The first goal was an own goal of the opponent, and the second goal was a penalty kick.

Li Long only remembered that the Croatian team won all the group matches, but he didn't remember the process of each game.

But it surprised Wang Yandong, he didn't expect it to be as Li Long said.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yandong suddenly realized that Argentina and Croatia were in the same team, so he asked a question out of curiosity.

"How about the Croatian team and the Argentinian team?"

"Of course the Argentine team is strong, Messi, Di Maria, Aguero, Higuain, Dybala, the offensive end is too strong."

"But the defense of the Argentine team is too poor. I still think the Croatian team is stronger."

Hearing Li Long's words, Wang Yandong became uneasy.

Then the two chatted again, and chatted about the predictions of several games.

However, what Li Long didn't know was that Wang Yandong followed Li Long's prediction.

I made a lot of money buying football, and it caused quite a stir after returning home.

After Li Long returned to the hotel, the team continued training the next day.

The morale of the players was obviously frustrated. At this time, the role of Zheng Zhi as the captain was revealed.

Regardless of appeasing the morale of the players, the team stabilized a bit.

Because the game has just ended, and it's not long before the next game.

So today is more about physical recovery and trying to maintain the best condition possible.

The game went on and there were a few surprise games.

For example, the last World Cup champion Germany lost to Mexico 0-1.

The Japanese team in Asia defeated the South American powerhouse Colombia 2-1.

And finally came June 21, the day will be the second match of the group stage.

The Huaxia team challenged the Danish team!
