World Cup of Great Powers

Chapter 180 Advancing to the finals and the host's off-market move

I don't know if Zeng Zheng's influence is too great, or fans' attention to women's football is gradually increasing, or those companies "discovered conscience".

Before the game against Russia, the women's football team got a lot of sponsorship.

Socks, sneakers, hairspray, sports vests, underwear, and even daily necessities are shipped to the front line in boxes.

Not only is it sponsored by domestic companies, but many local Chinese pay their own money and send it to the women's football camp.

A fan who sponsored hundreds of jerseys said in an interview: "Women's football is too poor, and they are not even willing to throw jerseys to fans after the game."

With these hundreds of jerseys, I believe the remaining two games are enough to sell as souvenirs!
On July 7th, Boston, the old American East Coast.

After yet another trek, the women's soccer team will compete with Russia for a place in the final at the Foxboro Stadium.

Speaking of which, the Chinese team and Russia have not played against each other for 6 years.

The last time they played against each other was at the 1993 Universiade, where they only won [-]-[-].

In April this year, the Chinese team played a game against the visiting Russian league champion in Guangdong.

Since the Norwegian team did not bring much trouble to the Chinese team, the United States can only pin its hopes on Russia.

They said, "Everything in the organizing committee is 'everything is dark' (all are black box operations), but no one knows why."

They have a strong defensive ability in the middle, but are relatively weak on the side.

Although he has plenty of stamina, his recovery speed is relatively slow.

"If you want me to say, they are timid! They dare not see us at all!" Ma Yuanan said angrily, "They must be afraid of getting too close to us, afraid that we will see the secret tricks they trained, it must be so! "

"Then when it comes to this name, what do you think of?" Zeng Zheng continued to guide.

And looking at the past matches of women's football, which championship was not won by the two keywords of "suppression" and "desperate"?

The temperature is hot and the fans are hot. I don't know if it is affected by this, or the coach's tactical requirements.

"No, I must find evidence that Coach Zeng helped women's football."

He was also subjected to the schedule arrangement of the hosts across the east and west coasts, and finally made it to the finals. They fought with Talami for 120 minutes without deciding the winner.

After hearing this, Ma Yuan'an cursed bitterly a few times.

On the plane to Los Angeles, Zeng Zheng was also filled with emotion when he saw every girl in the women's football team listening to songs with their eyes closed and earphones on.

"At the same time, we also have to admit that our women's football team is also under unprecedented pressure."

"The ambassador suite is of the same level as the even-numbered hotel. This change is also a normal phenomenon and follows the rules and regulations."

In this regard, Russia expressed strong protest to the organizers.

Seeing the two sides playing like this, the faces of the scouts from Da Laomei in the stands were full of joy.

"Mental pressure?" Ma Yuan'an didn't hear it for a while because of his age.

Whether it's a signed postcard, or a used scarf or headband.

As soon as the Chinese team landed, they were immediately "outside the game" from the host.

Although they won 2-3, only [-] or [-] of the [-] international players are the main players in this World Cup.

At this time, both sides are thinking that if one day they become the host country, they should also let Da Laomei experience the cross-time zone schedule.

The Chinese team will make another victory, the iron case has been decided!

The women's football team, which is stronger than the opponent in terms of technology, tactics, and awareness, retreated immediately, giving the opponent no chance at all.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the Chinese women's football team arrived at the airport.

Speaking of this, Ma Yuanan's next words were silenced.

As for why the location was temporarily changed, the organizing committee's reply was also very official.

Although the rhythm has slowed down, the offensive has become more powerful and threatening.

Even the special dishes of Mexico and Little Days, which had already been eliminated in the group stage, were still placed on the table.

Facing the high position press of the women's football team, Russia had no choice but to hide in its own half and adopt intensive defensive tactics.

as predicted.

"Now we are facing not only a strong team, but also a world-renowned strategic command master!"

The players are physically strong, but their personal abilities are slightly inferior.

Just as the "world media" expected, this Women's World Cup will really be contested by the two teams of China and the United States.

What they want is that the Chinese and Russian teams fight for both sides.

"Coach Ma, think about it, what is the name of our hotel?"

Since the midfield is controlled by one's own side, there is no need to adopt such wasteful tactics.

"In other words, Russia is not as good as Sweden and Norway?"

With such a physical condition, even the Norwegian team, which claims to be tall, is ashamed.

On July 7th, the Big Old Girl Football arrived at the Los Angeles Airport first, and about a few hundred American fans went to the airport to welcome their football saint.

The Chinese team waited for work with ease and made the defense airtight.

After meeting with the fans, the bus took a group of players to the Double Tree Hotel in Pasadena area in a hurry.

There is also the sound of gongs and drums, and the cry of "come on" from the microphone is even more prestigious.

"The Chinese team is completely different from what we imagined. The energy they showed greatly exceeded our imagination."

"If we keep making such a high profile, what if we run out of luck in the final?"

And just now, the United States defeated Brazil 2-0 and successfully advanced to the final.

After the match, Qin Xue stretched her waist, expressing her disappointment in the result of the match.

Secondly, the Russian team is in good physical condition.

Now, all fans are temporarily focused on women's football.

"Ah? Why?" Qin Xue put on an attitude of a curious baby, "Doesn't Coach Zeng want us to win a big victory like we did on the field?"

"If I look at them, they are not like 'a piece of hard bone' as your media say, they are just a piece of tofu! Haha, they are at most a piece of old tofu!"

With the mental state and physical reserves of today's women's football team, it is not a problem to beat Taramei in 90 minutes!

Many netizens even advised Zeng Zheng to join the women's football coaching team to make suggestions for the final final.

As soon as the game started, the women's football players became "hot".

"Coach Zeng is so concerned about women's football, yet he looks down on his opponents in the semi-finals."

Of course, Russia is not without weaknesses.

Now that she knew that Zeng Zheng was in the United States, how could Qin Xue let go of such a good opportunity?
Although she didn't know Zeng Zheng's itinerary, she casually glanced at the stands before the start of the game and immediately spotted Zeng Zheng.

"It's hard to believe that he didn't advise the women's football team!"

"Not only that, according to the exact news, the 'magic coach' who helped the Chinese team enter the World Cup last year also joined the coaching staff of the Chinese women's football team."

"Don't forget our next game is in San Francisco."

"Football is not rugby! Technology is the foundation!"

"That's right!" Zeng Zheng snapped his fingers, "They just disgust us!"

One ball in hand.

The Double Tree Hotel in Pasadena area is just across the street from the Sheraton Hotel where the Tate’s American team stayed. It was only when they arrived at the hotel that they were told that due to a temporary arrangement, the organizing committee arranged for the Chinese team to move to the Arcadia area. The Embassy Suites Hotel.

According to Zeng Zheng's evaluation, its speed is fast, its pulling range is large, coupled with rigorous tactical coordination, it can be called a well-trained team.

In the 29th minute, Liu Ailing made a sudden long shot and almost broke the goal.

It is precisely because of this that making it to the finals this time has become even more precious.

"By studying the previous games of the Chinese team, we have reason to believe that since the group stage, Zeng has already been in the Chinese team."

In the face of the Chinese team's continuous downfall, even if Russia wanted to play a defensive counterattack, it wasted its physical strength in the invalid running back and forth.

"If that's the case, we have to re-examine our opponents."

In the end, the Chinese team defeated Russia 2-0 and successfully advanced to the World Cup final.

Faced with such clingy reporters, Zeng Zheng couldn't dodge, so he had to sit in his seat and watch the game.

"Ah, if things go on like this, we will score sooner or later!" Qin Xue also saw the clue.

Knowing that it is a crucial battle, in this semi-final, the cheerleading team composed of local Chinese and foreign students is particularly large, and the equipment is more advanced.

Needless to say, national flags, colored balls, and banners are flying all over the venue;

This is a veritable women's football pass, no deception!
After a frantic rush, the jersey was finally snatched by a domestic reporter surnamed Wang, and it became one of his proud capitals on the acne printing platform more than 20 years later.

Like the Chinese team, Russia has also experienced three times of back and forth between the east and west coasts, and the team members are already exhausted.

On this basis, Ma Yuanan adopted Zeng Zheng's suggestion and aimed at Russia's weaknesses before the game, practicing techniques and tactics such as grabbing points in front of the goal, breaking through from the side, and long-range shots.

Not only that, except that there is no Chinese food, there are all kinds of food from other countries.

If the last shot was not blocked, I am afraid that the name of "female version of Maradona" will fall on Sun Wen.

Facing interviews with the media, Tate's head coach Di Ziko said: "I have already felt the enthusiasm of Los Angeles. The fans pay more attention to women's football than watching Ricky Martin's concert at the same time."

What is even more impressive is that although the Russian team is tall, it is not bulky.

No one expected that the women's soccer girls imitated the NBA and came up with a full-court press.

"Oh! I thought we would beat Russia like we did against Norway!"

In the 56th minute, taking advantage of a counterattack opportunity, Sun Wen shot a strong shot and was saved by the goalkeeper of the Russian opponent. Jin Yan took the opportunity to hit the ball and succeeded in a supplementary shot.

Fans in the previous life only knew that the women's football went all the way to the final and finally failed, but they didn't know that there were so many twists and turns during this period.

"He NND, he's going to the West Coast again!"

However, because the temperature was too hot, both sides began to make mistakes.

"What do I think?" Zeng Zheng snorted with a smile, "Can't you see it? They are trying to use this to put mental pressure on us!"

"Ambassador Suite!" Ma Yuanan replied.

Under Zeng Zheng's own influence, coupled with the publicity on the Internet, domestic fans know how much injustice this women's football team has encountered on the other side of the world.

Three minutes later, Sun Wen made a breakthrough all the way, passing five players in a row.

"And from a realistic point of view, 2 to 0 saves much more energy than 5 to 0!"

Hearing Ma Yuanan's complaints, Wang Junsheng smoked a stuffy cigarette and glanced at Zeng Zheng.

The Chinese team adopted this high-position pressing tactic at the beginning. First, it may be a countermeasure arranged by the coaching staff against Russia. Second, it must be based on the abundant physical reserves and preparations of their own players.

Outside the gate of the airport, there were a lot of overseas Chinese who came to the scene to join in the show.

In the 35th minute, Sun Wen's free kick was blocked by the goalkeeper again.

The big old women's football team only stayed at the Sheraton Hotel for one day, and then secretly moved into the Double Tree Hotel, which belonged to the Chinese women's football team.

Speaking of tall people, who is taller than Coach Zeng?
Zeng Zheng turned his head, pulled on his sunglasses, and asked curiously, "Ms. Qin, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something growing on my face?"

Otherwise, with our continuous cross-coastal schedule, even if we make it all the way to the semi-finals, we won't be as energetic as we are now!
Although Qin Xue doesn't understand football, as a football reporter, she still watches more games than some ordinary fans.

In other words, only Russia or the Chinese team can prevent Talami from winning the championship at home.

"NATO bombing in May"

But through their own efforts, the women's football team is at least much stronger than the previous life in terms of energy and physical strength!
Think about the women's football team in the previous life. Under the premise of no strategic goals, they just followed the tactical arrangement of "whatever is mentioned".

With permission, Sun Wen even took out the jersey that he deliberately wore on the plane and presented it to fans.

"It turns out that Coach Zeng also believes in luck!" Although Qin Xue had a look of surprise on her face, her lips were curled up in her heart, "When did the women's football know how to save energy before? Didn't you once The coach taught it?"

After 25 minutes, the Chinese team's offense obviously slowed down.

Then he asked Wang Junsheng for a cigarette, and smoked silently.

Neither side organized a decent offense in the first 25 minutes. There was only one shot by the Chinese team, and it was still symbolic.

"Hey hey no!" Qin Xue smiled playfully and turned her face away.

Compared with the previous life.

This change really worked!

But these protests were ultimately muddled, and no response was received.

Of course, needless to say by netizens, Zeng Zheng had already planned everything for this final.

Driven by the organization of Liu Ailing, the core midfielder, the players began to scatter in all directions, slowly turning their feet, trying to make a sudden attack in a slow tempo and accurate pass, or throw cold arrows, or use dark knives.

With so many sponsorships, the team members have already prepared small World Cup souvenirs for the fans who pick them up.

"Russia and Sweden are similar in strength, but they really can't play against Norway." Zeng Zheng commented, "Compared to those two teams, Russia's personal skills are not up to par."

The average height reaches 1.7 meters, and among the 1.7 main players, [-] are over [-] meters tall.

In addition to the temporary change of residence, the hotel in the Ambassador Suite does not have Chinese food.

During this period, how much effort the team members have to put in to fight!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that they gritted their teeth and hung their last breath to fight to the end.

Under the arrangement of the big old American schedule division, although the teams of both sides in the final battle have not been changed.

Qin Xue, who was on the side, clicked her tongue after hearing this, and muttered in her heart.

“2比0不叫赢吗?”曾政也站起身活动了一下筋骨,“要我说,这2比0还不如1比0呢!”

You must know that from before the start of the World Cup, the media in the United States have been promoting and building up momentum, saying that their players can finally win the cup.

Only 2 minutes later, the 11-year-old Pu Wei, wearing No. 19, made a cold shot in front of the penalty area and kicked through the goal of the Russian team.

In the stands, Zeng Zheng, wearing sunglasses, commented.

Now that the women's football team has started to play skills and tactics, there must be another expert's advice behind it!

"The technology is not good, no matter how tall or fast it is, it is useless!"

"Xiao Zeng, what do you think?"

Such an answer is obviously not convincing, and even the staff of the Ambassador Suite rushed to it inexplicably.

In the second half, Russia, who originally wanted to use defensive counterattacks against the women's football team, faced the helpless situation of falling behind by one goal, so they had to force themselves to attack.

Good goods are afraid of comparison!
With this pressure, Russia missed the coward in an instant!
Missed 2 consecutive passes in 4 minutes. This performance was not as good as the previous game against Sweden.

However, with the support of overall cooperation and local tactics, the women's football team connected the balls pretty well.

For this World Cup, Russia is equally miserable.

Zeng Zheng smiled slightly when he heard the words, "As the saying goes, too much is too much!"

But now it's different.

But this is not a problem for the Chinese team!

Logistics Minister Yan Fang is an expert in the United States, and she can find delicious Chinese food for the Chinese team wherever she goes.

Not only that, after the enthusiastic Chinese in Los Angeles learned of this situation, they brought fruits and meals to the Chinese team's resident every day.

Zeng Zheng also took advantage of this to "deeply process" these meals and Xiaotian's sushi into authentic and delicious Chinese food.

After tasting Zeng Zheng's craftsmanship, Ma Yuan'an couldn't help but joked: "Xiao Zeng, after we have you, we don't need to bring a chef with us when we go to war again!"
