Chapter 955： Battle of salvation

It should be said that the German Football Association spent a lot of time, energy and financial resources in preparation for this European Cup, and also invested a lot of manpower and material resources. This is not just from building a training ground for Gdansk, but also The team's station.

As soon as the World Cup in South Africa ended, the German Football Association has begun to select the European Cup station, but they are not like other teams, want to find a temporary residence, but to find a base camp.

The so-called base camp means that no matter where the German team goes to play, as soon as the game is over, they immediately return to the base camp to rest, because here they not only bring a lot of training equipment, but also a large number of ingredients shipped from Germany, And a German chef who can make authentic dishes that German internationals love.

From the beginning, the German Football Association ’s plan was to make the Olivsky Manor a German base camp, so they would not hesitate to spend 300,000 euros to build that temporary training ground.

Surrounded by green hills, green lakes and lush forests, the three 17th-century buildings of the Olivsky Manor are particularly eye-catching. Although there are few people here, although the surrounding police are stationed, the red roof looks special The conspicuousness, especially in the dazzling sunlight, is very striking.

After finishing the first match of the European Cup group stage, the team flew back from Ukraine to Gdansk, Poland, and then rested in the manor, but this time they came back together with two planes and one to pick up players Yes, one picked up the family of the players and arrived at Gdansk Airport almost simultaneously.

According to Yang Cheng ’s previous rules, family members were allowed to visit the hotel after the game, and they could stay overnight. The training class was cancelled the next morning. Players could rest until evening to start training, and then the family members would leave the station.

The rules set by Yang Cheng are tough, but they are not completely unhuman, at least after the game. Let the player's wife, girlfriend or children stay in the hotel, this is also a humanized arrangement.

Olivisky Manor has a total of 70 rooms, but there are only 2 luxury apartments, each of which has two rooms and an independent portal. The facilities are also very independent and convenient, and as the team's head coach, Yang Cheng occupies one of them, and the other one is given to the resident German Football Association President Nielsbach.

Although it was last night before returning to the hotel in the middle of the night, Yang Cheng got up from the bed early, sat in the living room, and watched the TV boringly. No surprise, the TV content is all about last night's game, and there are some comments.

Almost all guests and hosts felt that the game last night was the most beautiful game so far in this European Cup. Both teams have shown extremely high standards. The German team lost a lot of regrets, but In Yang Cheng's view, these words have no meaning at all. Because if you lose, you lose, what's the pity?

If I regret it, I always regret that I didn't win the opponent in this game. In turn, it affects the next game to play Portugal, is it not a bit of a loss?

"You, always get up so early, aren't you tired?" Charlize Theron in a loose robe walked out of Charles' bedroom. She should have woke up early, but didn't disturb Yang Cheng. , Went directly to see his son.

Yang Cheng patted the sofa beside him, asked her to sit down, shook his head, he was not tired at all. On the contrary, he was hyperactive, even now that he clearly felt that he was forced to a dead end, but the more he was, the more he had a spirit of excitement, which was almost the same as taking drugs.

Charlize Theron sat next to him next to him, and looked closely at his face. She was so tanned that she felt a bit painful, but those eyes were fascinating, especially the spirit revealed in the eyes, which made people feel confident and optimistic.

"Originally, I still intend to comfort you. Now it seems that it is not necessary!" Charlize Theron lay on his shoulders with a smile.

"Comfort? How can I comfort myself with a big belly?" Yang Cheng asked with a chuckle.

The latter threw him a super hygienic eye, but his hands were around his neck, and he could feel that Yang Cheng leaned closer to her head, sniffing her hair greedily, and the intimate movements of the two made each other a little bit Intoxicated in it.

"Let me go for a walk!" Charlize Theron let go and smiled, proposing, "I heard that it's beautiful here, and I'm uncomfortable sitting for a long time. We went out for a walk and came back later."

Of course, Yang Cheng had no problem, immediately helped her to stand up, opened the glass door directly, and left the room.

The three houses of the hotel are in the shape of a product. In the middle is a fountain and a parking lot. They are all covered with flat bricks. It feels good to step on it. The whole environment is also very clean and tidy. The air is very fresh.

"There is a lake outside, and then there is a wood, beautiful!" Yang Cheng smiled, he had come out for a walk before.

Charlize? Theron was excited to go, and the two walked out of the hotel side by side.

Along the lake, the trees on both sides are like walking in a paradise, especially after walking deeper, even the roads are the kind of neatly arranged gravel roads. There are no houses, no cars, only trees, only birds Cries.

This gravel road is long and surrounded by trees. It has a winding path and a quiet mood. It makes you want to explore. What is the end of the road? Does anyone live?

But after walking for a long time, I still only saw trees, and the road became a dirt road, a bit uneven.

"It is estimated that there is no way, let's go back!" Charlize Theron saw that the road was not easy to walk, he was a big belly, and Yang Cheng had to help him, he wanted to go back, and they also left It's close.

"Look forward, what else should there be!" Yang Cheng was curious about the front.

Goddess gave him a helpless glance and could only follow him.

The two walked about 500 meters further, and they were suddenly and cheerfully. They saw a lake no smaller than the entrance of the manor hotel, but it was not natural and artificially repaired like the lake at the entrance of the hotel. It was pure natural Yes, Tong Ping, the lakeside is covered with water plants, which makes the clear lake water look green.

"What a beautiful place!" Charlize Theron couldn't help but look at it.

The two walked along the lake and saw the stable. Several horses were fed inside, and when he saw the stranger, he snorted, and the owner of the stable hurried out to see. As soon as he saw two strangers. Suddenly there was watching the enemy there, as if to prevent them from stealing horses.

"Can you ride a horse?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.

Charlize? Theron gently stroked his bulging belly. The playful expression seemed to be saying, do you think I can still ride a horse?

Yang Cheng immediately smiled, "I've never ridden a horse, and ..." He looked embarrassed, and he obviously resisted riding.

"Ha. And you won't!" Charlize Theron did not forget to mock him.

"Laugh, laugh, anyway, you are so miserable to me, you should be proud!" Yang Cheng was calm.

Who is not bad at? Is there anyone who is all good?

They walked along the lake and saw three craftsmen building a wall. They were not using bricks, but the concrete agglomerates and the heavy ones. Direct cement bonding, so the process is quick.

The craftsman saw Yang Cheng passing by and stopped working in his hand. Pointing at what they were saying, there was also a younger man who was whistling at Charlize? Theron whistled, but was immediately patted a head by the senior, and their smiling faces made people feel It was friendly.

A simple, natural life!

Yang Cheng believes that their life may not be so good, but they should all live a full life.

"You really can choose a place, it's really beautiful, and beautiful and natural, simple!" Charlize Theron was on his way back. It keeps praising. For those of them who live in the city all the year round, this kind of life in the mountain village has a special taste. It seems that if they go to the small island of Yang Cheng, they feel different.

"I didn't choose it, but this place is really good. I hope I can stay here longer!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

If you want to stay here for a long time, it is best to qualify for the group and go further on the European Cup schedule ... because there is no training class in the morning, and because the team allowed family members to stay overnight last night, today, the player ’s wake-up time It is generally late. It seems that it was due to staying up late last night to work overtime. One by one, I didn't get up until after noon. Even the noon sleep was saved.

However, after getting up, the players arbitrarily arranged for their wives or girlfriends to leave the manor hotel by bus, and the Football Association arranged another hotel for them to stay, while Charlize Theron and Charles went directly to Kharko, Ukraine Husband, they are there to wait for the second game of the German team, the opponent is Portugal.

When the German team played Portugal, the issue that everyone was most concerned about was actually who was responsible for the marking of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese left winger is the number one core of the national team and the number one scorer, blocking this name. The player is equivalent to removing the sharpest fangs in Portugal.

Yang Cheng knows Ronaldinho better than anyone else, because he is not only Ronaldinho ’s mentor, who promoted him with one hand, but also the elders whom Ronaldinho regards as his father, so many people are here Looking forward to how Yang Cheng will restrain Ronaldinho.

Today, the team where the German team is located is self-defeating. Even Spain, who won the first round, dare not care, because it may be eliminated at any time, and the other three teams are not to mention, one by one. They will definitely try their best to strive for the team's right to qualify.

The right-back against the left is naturally a right-back. The right-back of the German team is a hidden danger. Although Jerome Boateng gained the trust of Yang Cheng, he made a mistake in the first game against Spain, which also Let many people worry about whether he can withstand Xiao Luo.

Both Multimedia and journalists have offered suggestions, hoping that Yang Cheng can make adjustments, let Ram come to the right, and use German captain to block Ronaldinho, and after the first game came off the bench, Bad Steuble completely Can start the left back, or Dortmund left back Schmelzer can also be competent.

But Yang Cheng did not make any external representations, and he also said before that Gomez and Boateng will definitely start again, but the question is how to play the strength of these two players, that is the most important.

Jerome? Boateng For Yang Cheng, the problem is not big, the key is Gomez.

The player Gomez has shortcomings, that's right. But people also have their own advantages, the key is how the head coach's tactics cover up his shortcomings, to play his advantages, this is the most important.

Leading the club is different from leading the national team. There are only a few people in the national team. The coach ’s tactics will always have to cater to the players, not the players to cater to the coach ’s tactics, so Yang Cheng will directly announce the second game after the first game. Continue to start.

Klose was sidelined due to injury and could not play in the second game for insurance reasons. It is logical for Gomez to continue to start. Moreover, Yang Cheng can also use this kind of trust to inspire the player's fighting spirit and morale, accomplishing both.

Gomez has many advantages, such as his impact, he is one of the few strikers in football today, and his off-ball running is very good. The moment the Fang player passed the ball, he keenly found space and used his explosive power. Grab the most favorable space to catch the ball in the shortest time.

Another very good feature is his sense of shooting. Perhaps many fans will feel that the empty goal of the first game is not bad. But Gomez's sense of shooting is definitely first-class, but he has a quirk to habitually control the ball before shooting, but the consequence of this is that the hit rate is high.

Therefore, if you want to give full play to Gomez's strength, the best way is to give him one-on-one opportunities and space in front, so that he can get a more relaxed environment, and want to get this environment, two sides The player must help him share defensive pressure.

Because of this, so in the next training. Yang Cheng began to consciously practice the tactical cooperation based on the characteristics of Gomez in the front field, but at the same time, he was also preparing to make some adjustments to the team.

Although the team lost in the first game, Yang Cheng was indeed dissatisfied with some aspects of the team's performance, but he didn't say it, so he was in training. Yang Cheng just said that in order to better help the team to play in the European Cup, he will rotate one or two positions, the players can not have any opinions on this ... in the German team hiding in the deep forest and practicing At that time, the battle of the European Cup was still in full swing.

Yang Cheng doesn't care much about other games, he is more concerned about the games of Group A and Group B, because if the German team comes out of the group, the opponent they encounter will be the opponent of Group A, so he should also care about The duel of this group.

Yang Cheng ’s think tank specially organized before the game all rushed to the European Cup this time to conduct spying on all potential opponents. Information will be sent to Yang Cheng almost every day, very complete.

During the practice of the German team, Group A played two games. Russia won the group first with one win and one draw. The Czech Republic won one with one loss and the group with the second. The Czech Republic played Poland, Russia and Greece. It was a big dogfight, and anyone could qualify.

That is, the day before the German team's game, Spain defeated the French team 1-0 with the goal of Villa coming back from injury. This allowed Spain to win the group qualifying in advance with two wins and two wins, and they almost It can be said that it has steadily won the group first, and France has lost one and one level, and the possibility of the group still exists. The key depends on the results of this game between the German team and the Portuguese team.

Whether it is Germany or Portugal, this game can be said to be a game of redemption. Whoever wins the game will be able to occupy a favorable position in the group qualifying, because the two teams currently have a gap of 1 point. Able to reverse the situation.

For Portugal, the German team must win this match, because then it will meet Spain, this team has maintained a victory in the past dozen national team games, and Bosque ’s team has not held steady. By the first in the group, the final game will not be slack, and Portugal has a small chance of winning.

Furthermore, Portugal ’s style of play is more Latin, similar to the style of the Brazilian team. Once it encounters a tough or oppressive team, it is prone to encounter difficulties, such as the team ’s first game. When the game met France, Portugal was obviously deflated. It was by relying on Ronaldinho's personal play to save the game.

Now in Spain, which has great oppression and control capabilities, Portugal knows its own weight.

So they can only win the German team, and then strive for the second group, otherwise, hope to play in the final round of Spain, that is undoubtedly trying to win the tiger's mouth, it is as difficult as a sky!

In the same way, for the German team, the second game of the group is also not to be relaxed. The first game is defeated. The next two games of the German team must be taken down to ensure the group's qualifying rights, otherwise it is likely to stop In the group stage, it really made Misaki's prediction come true.

So before the team rushed to Kharkov, Yang Cheng specially held a mobilization meeting.

At this mobilization meeting, Yang Cheng issued a kill order to all players, requiring everyone to have to wake up the spirit of 120,000 points. The next two games must not be lost, and they must be taken down. , Strive to qualify for the group.

"In the past few decades, Germany has never had the shame of being eliminated from the group. If you do n’t want to be a historical shame for German football, you do n’t want to watch yourself as a loser and leave the European Cup disgraced. If we do, then we have to work hard, and we can only work hard! "

And Yang Cheng's mobilization has also received a positive response from the players. At least from the player's expression, one by one hopes to be able to vent the depression of Portugal against Spain. (To be continued)
