Chapter 118 Professional Players Should Be More Selfish

Remember【】in a second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.

Tang Zheng didn't pay attention to what was going on in the country, but his old man Tang Tianhua was very concerned. Now the fans in the country are making a lot of noise, and Xie Yalong, the chairman of the Football Association, was almost scolded as Xiang.

The last time Tang Zheng accepted Five Star Sports, he had a lot of problems, and now he is pointing the finger at the Football Association and Xie Yalong. Is this... really not afraid of offending people?

But offending people is small, but affecting the future is a big deal!

Not to mention that Xie Yalong is still in charge of the national teams of all ages. Even if Xie Yalong, who is at fault in the local Olympic Games, leaves, which new leader dares to use such an upright player?

So Tang Tianhua didn't care about the time difference, and directly dialed Tang Zheng's cell phone, but when he heard Tang Zheng's analysis and explanation, Tang Tianhua, as a father, fell silent. Just like his son said, a gentleman does something. No, some things should be done while young!

In fact, Tang Zheng had already been mentally prepared.

Aren't the people in the Football Association doing the same thing?

It's nothing more than not letting you enter the national team, so you don't have the resume of the national team.

But Tang Zheng, who is in Argentina, doesn't have to worry about these things at all. Playing football abroad depends on his strength. It is better not to have the mission of a foreign name, which is more conducive to his healthy growth abroad.

But Tang Zheng believed that one day, everything would be fine.

What he has to do now is to train well, play well, contribute a better state to the game, and then let everyone in the world know that the Chinese can also play well, even if they cannot represent the national team.

At this time in the country, the voice of crusade is unprecedentedly loud.

It is said that Xie Yalong, chairman of the Football Association, is currently overwhelmed and is already considering whether to resign.

But before that, he needs to find someone to take over the mess.

But the problem is that no one is willing to fight for their future. After all, Chinese football has fallen to the lowest point in history, even to the point where everyone is calling for a fight.

In this case, River Plate challenged Banfield away.

In this game, Tang Zheng continued the good state of the past two games, but the ups and downs of the team's overall state did not actually help the team win the game.

In the end, the away game was tied 0:0 with the home team Banfield.

On the second day, the competitions of the BJ Olympic Games, thousands of miles away, came to an end.

The Argentine Olympic team defeated the Nigerian Olympic team 1:0 to win the championship, while Tang Zheng's River Plate teammate Bonannot's playing time was still fixed at the first 90 minutes of the third match of the group stage.

It is worth mentioning that the Chinese athletes in this Olympic Games performed well, winning 51 gold medals and topping the gold medal list with 15 gold medals ahead of the second-ranked United States.

As a Chinese, Tang Zheng was very excited and proud of the country's prosperity and strength.

His excitement continued well into the fourth round of the league. At home, River Plate relied on Tang Zheng's pie-feeding pass to assist Sanchez to score a goal and beat San Lorenzo 1-0.

Tang Zheng performed well, and Simeone was very pleased. He believed that this season's Spring League champion would be no problem.

Now whenever there is a home game, there are more and more local Argentine fans supporting Tang Zheng in the stands. Many fans even start holding up banners and slogans about Tang Zheng. The poster is extremely eye-catching.

The local Argentine fans know football very well. They know that the team is on the right track because it has a direct relationship with Tang Zheng.

More importantly, Tang Zheng is a high-quality player trained by River Plate's youth training camp, giving fans who are loyal to River Plate a great sense of belonging.

After the end of this round of the league, two consecutive FIFA match days have come, which means that the qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa kicked off again.

What made Tang Zheng helpless was that the Chinese team had no ball to play again. Like the 2006 German World Cup Asian qualifiers, the Chinese team failed to survive the second round of qualifiers.

At this time, countless Chinese fans can only focus on other favorite national teams, but after all, it is not the team of the motherland, and there is no sense of substitution.

So Xie Yalong tragically became the target of abuse by fans, because this was the inaction of the Chinese Football Association.

It is worth mentioning that in the 2008 U19 Asian Youth Championship and 2009 Egypt U20 World Youth Championship qualifier held in Saudi Arabia in early November, Tang Zheng, who was loved by Chinese fans, was once again missed the training squad.

At the same time, Bonanot, who followed the Argentine Olympic team to the final of the Olympic football game, unexpectedly returned to the team ahead of schedule.

It stands to reason that Bonannot, who represented the Olympic team in the BJ Olympic football game, has at least fifteen days to rest, so many people are curious.

In fact, the reason is quite simple. Bonanot followed the Olympic team to prepare for and participated in the Olympic team. He missed the team's preseason preparation and the four rounds of the league at the beginning of the season. He is currently playing the attacking avant-garde Augusto Fernandez. The performance was very good, even better than the veteran Rosales.

As the absolute main force in the second half of the autumn league last season, Bonannot felt a huge threat.

Therefore, when the international match day comes, choose to return to the team for training in advance. Otherwise, if you miss the team to prepare for the game, it is very likely that you will not even have a stable substitute seat.

To put it bluntly, in fact, for him, the Olympics is just to gather the number of people and win the championship lying down.

Due to the absence of many main players on the international match day, River Plate's overall technical and tactical drills must be impossible, so Simeone carried out targeted intensive training based on the players' positions and characteristics on the field.

In fact, the bottom line is physical training. He believes that with the development of world football, every position on the pitch will become multi-purpose, and sufficient physical fitness is the basis for guaranteeing the performance of personal skills.

Tang Zheng's dribbling technique has been greatly improved now, but the only shortcoming is that he can't always grasp the timing of his dribbling.

But Simeone is not in a hurry. The control of timing requires the accumulation of game experience. As long as there are more games participated, the control of timing will rise in a straight line.

Now he wants to develop Tang Zheng's actual scoring ability, because Tang Zheng, who is 1.93 meters tall, only used his header to break the ball in the last round of the league.

In many cases, his fight for the top in the penalty area is to rub back or ferry, and he rarely takes the initiative to head the ball.

Taking advantage of the interval between training sessions, Simeone called Tang Zheng to his side: "Tang, I want to know why you prefer to head behind or ferry when corner kicks or free kicks are attacked?"

"I enjoy the feeling of assisting teammates to score more." Tang Zheng thought for a while and gave an answer.

Not only Simeone was speechless, but even assistant coach Jorge Gortillo and fitness coach Enzo rolled their eyes.

This explanation must give 100 points!

"But professional players are often selfish! You know?"

Simeone said.

"Actually, I really want to, but sometimes I don't want to live up to the expectations of my teammates."

Tang Zheng spread his hands and explained.

"Then why are you so aggressive when the team goes forward?"

"I want to score a goal!"

Speaking of this, Tang Zheng seemed to understand something.

"Isn't that right? Corner kicks and set kicks are both a means of scoring, so why do you have to go back or ferry?" Simeone said: "You are not confident enough in your header?"

"of course not."

Therefore, Tang Zheng showed his power frequently in the following local set-piece drills. As the tallest player in the team, coupled with his excellent judgment and jumping ability, it would be a disaster for the marking players.

The international match day is the biggest headache for professional football clubs, especially the wealthy clubs, who often contribute the most to international players.

River Plate was affected by the FIFA virus. Forward Falcao suffered a second-degree strain of the soleus muscle in the World Cup qualifier away to Chile on behalf of the Colombian national team and will be sidelined for at least two weeks.

In addition, Augusto Fernandez, who recovered his form, was more tragic. He strained the adductor muscle of his left leg during the warm-up process and had a truce for four weeks.

The biggest disaster is undoubtedly the physical fatigue brought about by the international match day. Chilean international Sanchez suffered from physical discomfort because he represented the national team for 90 minutes in a row. Simeone asked him to truce for a game just to be on the safe side.

So the fifth round was a very difficult game for River Plate at Sarandi Arsenal. If it wasn't for Tang Zheng's header in the second half of the second half that caused the opponent's goalkeeper to throw the ball away, otherwise the central defender Tuccio who ran in front of the goal would have no chance. Way to hit the ball into the empty goal.

In the end, River Plate drew 2:2 with Sarandi Arsenal.

Fortunately, neither the competitors Boca Juniors nor the University of La Plata scored three points in this round, and River Plate ranked first with a slight advantage.

In the next game, I don't know if it was because of Falcao's absence that no player in the forward line could carry the banner of offense, so that River Plate tied in the next two league games.

The top position was then given up, ranking third.

The only comfort for River Plate fans is that the team is unbeaten so far.

But staying unbeaten is not the last thing River fans want to see, they hope that the team will emerge from the FIFA virus to compete for the spring league championship.

If the team continues, this season will be very dangerous...

In the last league game in September, River Plate was finally able to field the strongest lineup. Falcao returned from injury, Sanchez and Bonannotte left and one rear, Ahumada, Tang Zheng and Poncio sat in the middle.

In the 2008-2009 season, the A-League Spring League River Plate ushered in the eighth round opponent at home - the Athletic Club.

The tacit cooperation between Tang Zheng, Sanchez, Bonannot, and Falcao was reproduced at the Monument Stadium. In the tenth minute of the game, Tang Zheng quickly participated in the attack after completing the defense, and kicked a long pass over 40 meters Accurately found Sanchez, the latter passed the ball straight to the penalty area, and Falcao scored from the back with a burst shot.

Another five minutes later, Tang Zheng took advantage of the corner kick and used his height advantage to go forward and back. Falcao made a header relay from the penalty spot and scored twice.

In the second half, Falcao caught a mistake by the opposing defender and staged a hat-trick.

In this way, River Plate got out of the haze of Lianping and won the game.

At the regular press conference after the game, Simeone finally let out a sigh of relief, shouting that the FIFA virus will leave!
