Chapter 56 Adjustment

The Chinese team's next opponent is Switzerland.

Although not a traditional strong team in the World Cup, Switzerland is still a difficult character to deal with.

But in the lottery, this is a rare good draw.

After all, if it were Argentina or Spain, the Chinese team might have to face an exhibition match.

Switzerland's core style of play revolves around top stars Shaqiri and Xhaka.

The former plays for Stoke City, and now he is infinitely close to Liverpool.

It can be said that he may be Chen Man's future teammate.

And the other one is Xhaka.

A midfielder currently playing for Arsenal, of course Xhaka is not considered the main player at Arsenal. In the starting competition among Lucky, Kante and Wilshere, he can hardly earn the right to start.

But even so, Xhaka is still a starting midfielder in Switzerland.

The overall quality of Swiss players is higher than that of the Chinese team.

But the Chinese team's thighs are much harder than those of Switzerland.

Moreover, the Chinese team’s tactics are very similar to those of Switzerland.

That is to rely on his thighs to drive the whole team.

Switzerland's Shaqiri and Xhaka are the guarantee for Switzerland to win. The performance of these two players will directly affect the outcome of the game.

The situation of the Chinese team is similar.

Lucky and Chen Man are the guarantee and resources of the Chinese team.

It can be said that these two teams compete to see who has stronger thighs.

But this time, Switzerland was clearly shaken.

After all, Shaqiri is comparing with Chen Man.

One is about to join Liverpool, and the other is a member of Liverpool's Champions League champions.

The other is Arsenal's substitute, while Lucky is Arsenal's captain.

Fame, strength and spiritual level all seem to be in a state of crushing.

Especially for Xhaka, when this guy heard that he was going to face Lucky, he instantly became less confident.

For Xhaka, he has become accustomed to Lucky being his teammate.

When Lucky stood opposite him one day, this feeling made him feel terrible.

Xhaka is not confident in himself, but he does not feel that he can directly compete with Lucky in the midfield.

"The overall morale is not that strong! Xhaka also showed that he needs more help in the midfield!"

Swiss assistant coach Solic said to Swiss coach Petkovic.

The latter nodded, with a heavy look on his face.

At first, they thought they had won the weakest group, and the coaching staff cheered and celebrated for a while.

But after learning about the characteristics of the Chinese team, they remained silent one after another.

The Chinese team's playing style is to restrain them very much.

Moreover, the strong point of the Chinese team is that it has the key position to limit them.

For this reason, Petkovic felt extremely headache.

There is certainly worse news than this.

That is the Chinese team’s No. 7, Chen Manman.

Compared to Lucky, Petkovic felt that Chen Man was a greater threat, at least to Switzerland.

Chen Man is a special player.

As a speed player, he can not only rely on tactics, but also get rid of the constraints of tactics and open up his own fast track on the wing.

It can be said that as long as someone in the Chinese team can send the ball to their backcourt, then Chen Man can infinitely defeat their full-backs along this track.

And based on Chen Man's current number of goals and shooting ability, they really don't dare to let Chen Man go.

But if excessive defense is invested in Chen Man, there will also be problems of negligence in other positions.

Lucky, Wang Yi, Chen Xiang, Ouyang Fei, do we really not need to keep an eye on these points?

It can be said that the more he understood, the more irritated Petkovic felt.

Therefore, Germany and Switzerland were tied one after another, and Mexico was attacked by the Chinese team. These are not factors of luck.

Without some strength, how can we get the first qualifying spot in Group F.

Even if the German team and other teams are struggling, without the support of their own abilities, it is useless to give them opportunities.

Therefore, their opponent in the quarter-finals is much more difficult to deal with than expected.

On the other side, the training ground of the Chinese team.

The drizzle continues, and today, the Chinese team finally conducted outdoor ball training.

Of course, the intensity will also be reduced very low, mainly focusing on activities and ball feel training.

The intensity of training decreases and there is more rest time.

But the players did not go to rest, but spontaneously began to practice more.

On the one hand, it can ensure the body's heat, on the other hand, it can replenish one's competition status.

After experiencing the World Cup group stage, the improvement for Chinese players, especially young players, has been great.

Experience is one thing, and performance in fierce competitions is another.

They also learned a lot in the process of competing against those strong European teams.

For example, how to observe during defense, how to pass the ball to the frontcourt without losing the ball, and under the premise of loving a fast pace.

It can be said that the current Chinese team can occasionally play the fast-paced counterattacks of the European team without making mistakes.

But the success rate is not very high.

The other players are conducting their own training.

Lucky also wanted to do ball feel training, but the arrival of Ouyang Fei interrupted the training.

"How to adjust the status?"

Lucky looked at Ouyang Fei's serious expression.

Since the end of the group stage, Ouyang Fei's expression has been very heavy.

Throughout the group stage, Ouyang Fei's performance was definitely not as expected.

As a player playing in Europe, Ouyang Fei's performance could not be integrated into the offensive system of Lekai and Chen Man.

He could not bring positive benefits to the team.

It can be said that if Ouyang Fei's performance could be better, Lekai could play more easily.

But Ouyang Fei has not been able to adjust.

And now, Ouyang Fei really has no choice but to seek help from Lekai.

Lekai has his own way of adjusting his state.

"I'm not sure that this will definitely suit you, but I basically do this when I adjust my state!"

"How to do it?"

Ouyang Fei asked hurriedly.

Lekai kicked the ball over.

"Pass the ball over later, remember, the first kick must be passed to my feet!"

After that, Lekai turned and left, walked to a position of about 50 meters, and then waved to Ouyang Fei.

As a professional player, a 50-meter long pass can still be guaranteed without confrontation.

Ouyang Fei focused his attention, looked at Lekai's position, and sent a steady long pass.

Lekai almost didn't have to leave his position, and gently hooked the ball with his toes to stop it.

"Very good!"

Lekai gave a thumbs up and walked over with the ball.

"How does it feel?" Lekai asked.

"It's very comfortable to play." Ouyang Fei said.

Lekai nodded and said, "Remember this feeling and make yourself feel comfortable."

"Your problem is that you always play too impatiently. Many times, you make wrong judgments in impatience, such as passing the ball when you shouldn't pass it, and choosing to pass it when you should dribble it!"

"This shows that he can't play in his own rhythm, but is led by the opponent's rhythm. You pass the ball in a hurry because the opponent is pressing hard. At this time, you should use your own way to stabilize the rhythm."

Lekai raised his index finger: "The first step is to start with steady stop and pass the ball! The first kick is very important. The stability of the first kick will continue to make you feel the feeling of passing and stopping the ball. Then stop each kick steadily, and then pass it. If someone presses, then turn around to get rid of it. At worst, you can pass it back, but never pass it forward blindly and be forced to attack by the opponent."

"The attack should be led by you, not forced to run by the opponent, understand?"

Ouyang Fei showed an expression of half understanding.

Lekai smiled and said, "When the game comes, you will feel it and you will understand."

"Can't you adjust it in training?" Ouyang Fei said hurriedly.

Lekai shook his head: "Whether it is the improvement of ability or the adjustment of state, everything must be done in the game, training is useless."

"Okay!" Ouyang Fei could only nod.

Lekai thought for a while and said, "I suggest you go to Chen Man and Liu Kairui, and practice passing and running with Chen Man. That guy is straightforward and will not cooperate with you to slow down the rhythm. Liu Kairui's defensive pressure can also allow you to play better in the confrontation."

Ouyang Fei nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, Brother Kai, I'll go now."

Looking at Ouyang Fei's back, Lekai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He is the one who most hopes that Ouyang Fei can play well.

Only when Ouyang Fei plays well, Lekai will not be so tired in every game.
