The next morning, with the sound of waves in the distance, the tired national team players got up listlessly from their slumber, and each walked out of the bedroom to the dining room on the first floor, yawning even after washing their faces."
Huh?
Bun?
”Yan Song picked up one strangely and took a bite: "Or is it stuffed with sauerkraut?"
”"And millet porridge?"
Yuan Weiwei was also pleasantly surprised to find the "baby".Yishui'er's Chinese breakfast immediately stimulated the enthusiasm of the team members, and even Wang Ai came to have an appetite and took six tea eggs.Since the three group games have to change to three cities, and if they all live in hotels, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of confusion, so Claude, who was hired by Leonie and Gao Hongbo, solemnly put forward his first suggestion to the national team: This trip to South Africa to participate in the World Cup, take care of yourself throughout the whole process, especially the food!
After he learned that the Chinese team would not play black hands against other teams, especially the Chinese team did not have the experience of playing black hands and guarding against black hands, he thought that instead of attacking and defending each other, it was better to block himself so that outsiders could not intervene at all.Yan Shiduo, who had not yet handed over the shift at that time, approved this suggestion after thinking about it, so the houses where the Chinese team lived in at least three group games after arriving in South Africa were all small estates rented through local Chinese-funded enterprises.Anyway, there are 23 members of the national team, 7 coaching staff, 4 team leaders, 6 defenders, and 1 translator.In terms of food, it was all airlifted from China, mainly meat and seafood, and after Yan Shiduo arrived in advance, they rented a refrigerated truck, and where the national team went, the refrigerated truck with meat and seafood was stocked.As for rice and white flour vegetables, you can buy them anywhere.This completely closed mode maximizes the avoidance of the opponent's plots and avoids the delegation's accidents, after all, South Africa is notoriously poor in law and order.The previous national team was not so extravagant, and those who came from the poor era, even if they had money, they could still save and save.After all, just five or six years ago, when the Chinese youth team went to Europe to play the Toulon Cup, it was still poor, and it didn't even have a second set of clothes, not even a training ball.The women's football team is worse than the national youth, and it is often a set of clothes to win the world.The arrival of Claude has finally accelerated all this, without his proposal, the national team may continue to do the past, that is, rent a hotel at random, then the environment cannot be guaranteed at all, and the conditions are not as good as they are now.When the Chinese team participated in the World Cup in Germany four years ago, they lived in Tübingen the whole time, but in South Africa, they did not have this condition.After breakfast, Gao Hongbo announced that he would rest in the morning, and those who didn't like to go out stayed in the manor, and led everyone to the beach to play for a while if he was willing to go out.The World Cup has been going on for half a month, one game after another, one opponent after another, the itinerary is compact and tight, and this string cannot be pulled all the time.What's more, before I came, I had been training in China for ten days, and everyone had played a whole season before.At nine o'clock in the morning, everyone is blowing the sea breeze on the beach, South Africa in June is quite cool in the morning and evening, and it is about 20 degrees at noon, the temperature difference is not small, so everyone comes in coats, and it is better to wait for the sun to come up.Some came with balls and kicked on the beach, while others came empty-handed and sat and chatted.Several coaches, team leaders, and captains like Wang Ai still get together to study tactics.Although everyone's family members have already come, they did not live with the national team, but formed a separate "delegation", and unless the national team has something to say, they will play their own games.After returning to the manor at noon and resting for an hour, the group took a bus to a middle school two kilometers away.Schools in South Africa are on holiday, so the organizing committee helped to contact them and rented them for a few days.After arriving at the place, the accompanying reporters wanted to follow up and take pictures, but Yan Shiduo announced that the national team had entered a completely closed state, and everyone, whether it was reporters, local Chinese-funded enterprises, representatives of overseas Chinese, and overseas Chinese, all the team members could not be received, and their team leaders were responsible.In the past few days, the Spanish team has been under fire all day long.All kinds of news are flying all over the sky, although Spain was defeated by the Chinese team in the group stage of the Confederations Cup last year, but then beat the Chinese team 4:2 in the third-place match, even if the super scorer Wang Ai is still terrifying, but still lost.The Spanish team used this game to tell the outside world what football is called a sport of 11 people.Whether it is the Spanish team or the Spanish media, the attention to the Chinese team is only Wang Ai, at most Chen Tao and Li Weifeng, and the rest are "insufficient".And the Chinese team has no intention of engaging in any media propaganda now, and is all about studying the game, studying tactics, and studying the opponent.Isn't there a saying that everything is difficult at the beginning?
Whether this new system can be worked, the key is this World Cup, if it works, then stand, I dare not say that the Chinese team will play like this in the future, but it will definitely be embedded in the genes.But if it doesn't, it will be a joke.However, the Chinese team is not without any news, in order to interfere with the sight of the Spanish team, at the suggestion of Claude, the national team took the initiative to contact the local newspaper in South Africa, and released a lot of fake news, what Wang Ai was injured, what was in conflict with whom, what suddenly returned to China for investigation, etc.Whether it's Yan Shiduo or Gao Hongbo, I don't know if it's useful to do this, just like I don't know if the news released by the Spanish team is true or not, anyway, there are dates or not, as long as it doesn't affect the preparation of the national team.With this treatment, it is enough to choke the eyes of domestic reporters, but there is no way.This World Cup is different from the past, and it can't be said nonsense like before, and the leadership will not let it.On the morning of the fifth day of the national team's arrival in South Africa, the whole team went to Durban Stadium to adapt to the venue, which was the first of the four opportunities for the Chinese team to adapt to the venue.In fact, it has been three days since the start of the World Cup in South Africa, but the Chinese team is in the last group, so the kick-off is also the latest, and it will not be played until the day before the second round of Group A on the 16th, and it is the same day.Previously, Wang Ai's biggest concern was that the court was too slippery, and the Chinese team was 3 centimeters taller than the Spanish team, so if the court was really like the Bernabeu, it would be very unfavorable to the Chinese team.Fortunately, after testing back and forth, I found that the course was not bad, and I didn't slip casually.At noon, when the Chinese team went back, it was just in time for the Spanish team's bus to arrive, they were in the afternoon, and tonight it was returned to the Chinese team.Tomorrow morning will be Spain, the Chinese team will be in the afternoon, and then it will return to Spain in the evening, and the organizing committee will make a clear arrangement.However, the two sides didn't have the heart to say hello, and the Spaniards didn't have any expression on the Chinese team's side through the glass, probably the Chinese team's side too.
