Chapter 14 The War Is Approaching
The interview footage was sent back to China, and soon aroused public opinion.
Lucky's words "weak people are not losers" successfully inspired a large number of fans and non-fans.
They felt that Lucky's response was very domineering and confident.
This is a very positive energy for Chinese fans who have been beaten for many years.
Even CCTV's evening news has a special report, which shows how great its influence is.
"Lucky" and "weak people are not losers" have become hot topics.
For Chinese fans, looking at the entire world football, Chinese football is still in a weak position.
But as Lucky said, weak people are not losers.
If even the will to fight is gone, then it is a loser.
The fans who were successfully inspired once again burst into great enthusiasm and anticipation.
They are full of expectations for the game on June 13th, BJ time.
As time passed, national teams from various countries began to enter Brazil and came to the cities where their respective stadiums were located.
The entire Cuiaba has been occupied by Chinese and Chilean fans.
In order to better manage these fan groups, under the government's planning, the entire Cuiaba is divided into two areas to accommodate fans from both countries.
Fans from both countries will not meet unless necessary, so as to reduce the incidence of accidents.
While waiting for the World Cup to start, Chinese fans are also traveling locally.
For many people, if it weren't for the World Cup, they would never come to Brazil in their lifetime.
But this time they came and had a lot of fun.
As a football power, Brazil has a very strong domestic football atmosphere, and the relationship between Chinese fans and local residents is also very good, and no riots have been caused.
Compared with the stability of Cuiaba, British fans, who are mostly football hooligans, are not easy to manage.
In recent times, 60% of the fans who have been repatriated for fighting are English fans.
The combat effectiveness of the fans of the "Three Cats Army" is questionable, but their provocation ability is definitely top-notch.
Anyway, they can't be quiet!
Therefore, the Cuiaba police are very satisfied with the Chinese and Chilean fans. If possible, they hope that British fans will never come to this land.
The training time is only two hours a day, including one and a half hours of high-intensity training and half an hour of running and physical training.
Although it is only an hour and a half of training, the intensity is not low at all, and it is basically carried out according to the intensity of the game.
In order to keep the players in good condition.
Moreover, the Chinese players are also very hard-working in training. Perhaps they are really going for victory. Everyone's training enthusiasm is extremely high.
At the beginning, only Lekai was jogging in the morning.
Starting from the second day, Wang Yi and Guo Liang joined them.
Starting from the third day, more people followed Lekai to do morning exercises.
Now, the whole team gets up at 6 o'clock in the morning and does morning exercises.
In addition to training, diet is also very particular.
In order to meet the players' diet and energy supplement, everyone will have a separate diet plan.
As for Lekai, he is big and consumes a lot of energy, so his energy intake is several times that of others.
During this period, Ouyang Fei also wanted to learn from Lekai to strengthen his physique, and took the initiative to do extra training and diet intake.
But he was soon stopped by the coaching staff and was severely scolded by the head coach.
What the Chinese team needs now is stability, not change.
With the World Cup approaching, no mistakes can be made.
On June 10, the leaders of the Football Association came to inspect.
Although it was an inspection, only head coach Liu Hongbo met with him.
The leader just symbolically said some encouraging words to the players.
When he talked too much nonsense, Liu Hongbo gently kicked his butt with his foot to make him speak faster.
Finally, Le Kai learned that the leader who spoke was Li Kangyang, chairman of the Football Association, and one of Liu Hongbo's favorite disciples.
He was also a football player before, but had to retire early due to injuries.
After that, he entered the institutional youth training and came to the position of chairman of the Football Association with his excellent performance.
Brazil time, June 11, the penultimate day before the war.
Head coach Liu Hongbo gathered the players again and once again emphasized the tactical play in the game.
Although they have simulated and rehearsed several times in the past, head coach Liu Hongbo is still not at ease. He tirelessly explains over and over again, and picks out every detail for explanation.
Strangely, he has very few requirements for Lekai.
Lekai also asked what role he should play in the team and how to play this game.
But Liu Hongbo's answer was "play according to your own ideas."
This answer caught Lekai off guard.
In the past, when he was at Arsenal, Wenger would tell him in advance what role he should play, whether he should defend or attack.
What is the key at what time, etc.
But Liu Hongbo did not tell him these things, but let him play freely, which made Lekai feel free while he was in trouble.
In fact, for Liu Hongbo, he was not sure how to use Lekai.
He had learned about Lekai, but the two had not worked together for a long time, so he didn't know what Lekai could do.
And it was the first time he had a midfield core player like Lekai.
When I didn't have it, I thought about it every day, but suddenly I had it, but I still had some concerns.
He felt that if he asked Lucky too much, he would form restrictions and restrictions on Lucky's performance. It would be better to allow him complete freedom and use his ideas and creativity to compete.
The coaching staff is also quite supportive of Liu Hongbo's decision.
After all, they don't know how to use Lucky.
Brazil time, June 12th.
Since early morning, the whole of Brazil has been enveloped in a fanatical atmosphere.
In eight hours, the 2014 World Cup in Brazil will officially begin.
It was also from this day that a tense atmosphere began to emerge among the major national teams.
This atmosphere is visible to the naked eye.
Many people have begun to suffer from pre-game stress syndrome, with numbness in their hands and feet, poor condition, and even vomiting and diarrhea.
This is something you have to go through before a big competition.
The Chinese team is pretty good here.
But Ouyang Fei, a young man, was depressed, and his eyes were covered with red bloodshot eyes and had thick dark circles.
During the training, Lucky said funnyly, "How many days have you been awake since?"
Ouyang Fei smiled bitterly: "I can't sleep, I'm too nervous!"
Lucky; "You're so nervous. You're not the main player. Whether you can play or not is a question!"
puff!
Ouyang Fei felt like he was stabbed hard in the back.
"Brother Le, there's no need to be so comforting!"
Ouyang Feiyou complained.
Le Kai patted Ouyang Fei on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, just watch carefully, we will bring victory!"
Ouyang Fei nodded immediately.
There is a charm about Lucai that makes people unable to help but believe in and rely on him.
As far as Ouyang Fei is concerned, when everyone is uneasy or nervous, Lucai is always the one who is full of fighting spirit and enthusiasm.
Staying with Lucai feels like he will be filled with energy. This feeling makes Ouyang Fei very fulfilling.
"Ouyang Fei! Go to bed!"
Assistant coach Zhang Chen came over, looked at Ouyang Fei's pale face, and said, "Your mental quality is not good! If you really have to play in the future, whether you can rely on it or not is a question."
Hearing this, Ouyang Fei became anxious.
"I can depend on you!"
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "Then go to bed!"
Ouyang Fei said: "I plan to go to bed at night, otherwise the jet lag I just recovered will cause another problem!"
Zhang Chen thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, then you can practice lightly today and go to bed after watching the opening ceremony in the evening."
Ouyang Fei said weakly; "I want to watch the opening match between Brazil and Croatia!"
Zhang Chen glared fiercely, and Ouyang Fei immediately gave in.
Lucky looked at the two and chuckled, then stared at the sky slightly. In Sao Paulo, more than a thousand kilometers away from Cuiaba, he must have been bathed in the fanatical atmosphere of the World Cup at this time, right?
The sky was extremely clear and blue, without a single cloud.
Lucky couldn't help but clenched his fists slightly.
He knows very well that the World Cup is coming!
Tomorrow is also the first World Cup match in his life!
