Chapter 1136

On the afternoon of August 30, outside the World Cup Stadium in Seoul, South Korea.

There are still two days to go before the first match of the top 12. The Chinese team has their first training session in the outfield north of the World Cup Stadium. However, unlike the closed training in China, this field is surrounded by all sides.

The training also attracted more than 100 South Korean media reporters to the scene, as well as hundreds of South Korean fans and some Chinese fans.

The coaching team came to the scene early to set up the venue. Because they are all partners in the cold for many years, they have a great reputation. Even the assistant coaches are famous experts all over the world, which makes every media reporter and fan present like a home.

Sergio Garcia played with the equipment, Buena Ventura played the field, Pedro harrow stood near the goal... And the assistant coach, Xiao Mu

Li Tie, the team leader, and the press officer took the lead in showing up. They told all the fans and media that in order not to affect the training of the national team, the coaching staff will be open for 15 minutes to allow media reporters to interview the players. Once the opening hours are over, they hope that all media reporters and fans can abide by the order and do not disturb the training of the national team.

For the Chinese team's approach, the media reporters and fans are recognized.

Sure enough, the players came to the training ground earlier than usual. Everyone of them seemed to be in a good mood. They didn't have the tension and dignified feeling before the competition, which disappointed many South Korean media reporters.

When they asked about the Chinese International's views on this game, the answers were very close, except that they tried their best to show themselves and didn't care about the final result.

As the captain of the team, Zheng Zhi has received a lot of attention. He said that the countries hope to show their value to every player. Through this game, everyone will have a more comprehensive understanding of the spirit of unity and struggle of the national team and strive to live up to the expectations of the Chinese people.

As soon as the 15 minutes arrived, the news officer came to remind Zheng Zhi. The latter immediately called his teammates and walked into the training ground. He felt warm. The South Korean media outside gathered around Gao Han, the head coach who had just walked into the training ground.

"Hello, Mr. Gao Han. It's a great honor to meet you. Can you talk about the coming competition?"

"Mr. Gao, many people are worried that your team will encounter the first Waterloo in their career the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"

"Stilik said that you can't save the Chinese team. What do you think?"

"In the face of a strong South Korean team, do you have any surprise

……

The live media reporters rushed to the high cold, and the magnificent scene shocked the fans who came to the scene, even the players who warmed up on the pitch.

This is their boss, the number one coach in the world, Gao Han!

"OK, don't worry, everyone. Just be quiet. I have 15 minutes to answer questions."

Gao Han signaled the news officer to come and maintain order, and at the same time appeased all media reporters.

"I'll answer one by one." Gao Han was very elegant and pointed to a reporter who asked a question just now.

"What do you think of tomorrow's game? My answer is that it was the first game of the last 12. Of course, we want to win with all our strength. It's a matter of course. We know that the game will be very difficult. For us, South Korea is a strong opponent, but we will still do our best. "

Gao Han smiles and answers one question, then turns to another.

"You ask me, but don't worry about Waterloo the day after tomorrow? No, I've never worried about it. It's not something that can be solved by worrying about it. So, my motto is to do my best in every game

"And you, I doubt if that's what stilik said, but I want to say that Chinese football doesn't need to be saved. It has been improving over the past few years. Whether you can see it or not, it is working hard. Our players, the football association and more than one billion Chinese fans are also working hard."

"Finally, your question, wonder? I don't know what surprise is, but I have a good team, the atmosphere is good, the players' competitive condition is well adjusted and the team is getting better. I think that's enough

After Gao Han answered four questions at one go, he indicated that the news officer could allow the South Korean media to ask questions again.

Soon, a South Korean reporter asked whether the cold was worried about Korea phobia? And how to deal with the pressure of this game?

"I've heard of Korea phobia, but I never approve of the so-called curse. After I took charge of the national team, I recruited a lot of young players. Many of them haven't lost to South Korea, so there has been no Korea phobia for a long time, hasn't there?"

"As for the pressure, there must be. If there is no pressure in the first match of the top 12, it must be false. But I think a little pressure is a good thing. It can make us face the game more actively, and make us pay more attention to it and work harder to play well in this match."

Soon, another reporter raised his hand to ask questions.

"Hello, Mr. Gao Han, the main reason why the South Korean Football Association chose Seoul as the home court of the Chinese team is that it has psychological advantages here. The South Korean team has never lost to China here. In the 2002 World Cup between South Korea and Japan, China lost to Turkey 0-3, even Hengda, which is known as the strongest team in the Chinese Professional League, has also suffered a disastrous defeat here."

"Just last week, Luneng, a team from China, lost 3-1 to FC Seoul. Many people said that this field is the curse of China. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Gao Han laughed, "first of all, I want to thank you very much for helping me popularize the science. It's very detailed. It proves that you must have prepared a lot in advance. But I want to say that there is no so-called curse place. There will always be a first time in everything. No matter what our previous achievements here are, it has nothing to do with the competition the day after tomorrow, right?"

"Mr. Gao Han, what do you think of stilik's saying that only 20 players are enough for the Chinese team? And he has been back and forth to the Chinese Super League for many times. He is very familiar with the Chinese team, and has had exchanges with many Korean coaches who coach in the Chinese Super League. He knows your team like the back of his hand. Are you worried? "

Gao Han smiles again, looking calm and confident.

"I think it's normal, or it should be said that if he doesn't, I think he's not professional enough. As for his choice of the 20 man list, I don't think it's anything. After all, there are only 18 people in the competition list, and 20 people are really enough."

Gao Han's answer can be said to be watertight, so that the media can not find fault.

"Mr. Gao, we noticed that Luneng international Hao Junmin, who played Seoul last week, didn't show up in today's training ground. I don't know if something is wrong?"

"Oh, your eyesight is very good. Hao Junmin had a cold after he arrived in Korea. For the sake of safety, I didn't let him train with the team, but let him stay in the hotel. I believe you should also receive this news. As for whether he can appear in the game the day after tomorrow, I need to observe again."

In the territory of South Korea, Gao Han doesn't believe they didn't spy on this information. It's better to take the initiative to say so.

"Mr. Gao Han, I'm a reporter for East Asian sports in South Korea."

"East Asian sports?" Gao Han frowned and then began to laugh. "I just saw your report in the news this morning. You said that South Korea has the DNA to defeat China. That's your report."

All around a burst of laughter, East Asian sports reporter on the contrary some embarrassment, did not expect to be so soon translated by Chinese colleagues in the past.

"Yes, but what I said is true. We have entered the World Cup finals eight times in a row. In the past few years, we and China have achieved 30 games, 17 wins, 12 draws and one loss, which is overwhelming."

"Yes, you're absolutely right." Gao Han still keeps a faint smile, which makes everyone unable to understand his psychology, "but I think you have said less. South Korea is the best team in the top 40, and they are the only team that keeps winning all the time. So far, they haven't lost in this World Cup qualifier."

When Gao Han said this, the Korean media reporters all around them raised their heads and held their chests high one after another.

"Undeniably, judging from the current situation of public opinion and past results, South Korea has an absolute advantage. The odds offered by the famous gambling company William Hill are two goals. Many of you are expected to celebrate the victory, but I think that the game has not been played yet, and everything is still unknown."

"Football is round. Everything can happen on the football field. No one knows what will happen next. No matter the past results or the public opinion outside the field, it has nothing to do with the game on the football field."

"My players and I don't pay attention to the public opinion. We are more concerned about how to play our best. No matter what the result of the game is the day after tomorrow night, as long as we do our best, that's enough

Gao's answer is somewhat elusive to the Korean media.

Is this a sign of weakness?

I don't think so.

What does he mean?

Gao Han did not give the South Korean media reporters any more chance to ask questions. He signaled to the press officer and immediately terminated the interview because the team's training time was up.

Watching Gao Han walk into the training ground, all the media reporters are still not satisfied. They still have many questions to ask, but obviously they will not have another chance.

It's not only the bitter master who has troubled the Chinese team for decades, but also the constant winner in the preliminaries. Coupled with the overall strength advantage, South Korea's team can be said to win in the face of China. It's almost impossible for some people to think that the Chinese team can win.

Even Chinese fans don't have such confidence.

Even if their head coach is invincible.

At the scene security personnel closed the training ground, alpine also came to the national team players in front.

From the 21st to the present, although some international players will not return to the team until the 24th, the preparation time for this time is relatively abundant. The cold weather and the coaching team have also done enough preparation.

The next two days, the team is more to adapt to the venue, adapt to the climate, while adjusting the state.

The match against South Korea the day after tomorrow may be the first match of the last 12 for South Korea, but for China, it is a decisive battle with no way out.

The bottom line of high cold is very clear, try your best to win, but never lose.

He is very clear about the current situation of the national team. Two wins in a row just make the players return to normal a little, not self-confidence at all. If he loses to South Korea again, he will not have to play the next game against Iran.

If you lose two games in a row at the beginning, how can you play the remaining 12 matches?

"See? Do you feel it? " Gao Han asked the players in front of him lightly.

"The game hasn't been played yet, but they seem to have won."
