Chapter 440 Lippi's Request

The training time of the national team during this window period is very long, in fact, it has already started before Gao Yuyang came.

So in the afternoon of the second day, the national team played a friendly match with the Chinese Super League team Shandong Luneng at the training ground.

The training time is long or short, but the effect of re-establishing the tactical system can only be exposed through actual combat in the game state, so even if the quality of the warm-up match is not very high, Lippi doesn't care about the outcome at all. .

This is an internal teaching game, there is no camera, there is no broadcast, and the national team still keeps it strictly confidential.

This is Gao Yuyang's first time playing with the national team, but what's interesting is that Lippi let him sit on the bench for half an hour at first.

"Gao, first watch everyone's performance off the court, maybe you will feel a little different."

Gao Yuyang was quite looking forward to it, thinking that he could discover some bright spots, but after just 5 minutes of the game, he frowned.

The visiting Shandong Luneng is really very face-saving. As a veteran team in the Chinese Super League, when facing the national team, it puts on a five-back iron bucket formation.

But the national team faced such a defense, in Gao Yuyang's view, they just couldn't play football - the midfielder got the ball, and it was clear that the wingers on both sides were advancing at high speed, and even the full-backs had already assisted. A pass from the road is definitely an opportunity, but the midfielder quickly chooses to pass the ball back to the defense after getting the ball.

"I'll go, what the hell...it's a pass! Wipe!"

Turning his head, he took a special look at who was passing the ball like this. Now he can remember this face. It is said that Zhang Xizhe is still the leading midfielder born in the 90s in China.

Gao Yuyang knew that this player had a resounding nickname when he was interacting with netizens who knew the ball in the live broadcast: sales midfielder.It originated from his experience of being sent back to China by the big boss of the club to sell cars during his short stay abroad in the Bundesliga Wolfsburg.

"Ha ha!"

Gao Yuyang could only chuckle secretly in his heart: At this level, this brother is not wronged!I don't even know what to do in midfield.

What made him even more mad was that this was not an isolated phenomenon. In half an hour, the midfielder almost subconsciously chose to pass back when he encountered a close press. When he encountered a high press from the opponent's forward, the central defender from the Chinese Super League champion Guangzhou Evergrande Mei Fang directly kicked up with a big kick to finish the job. The most important thing is to kick this kick out. Seeing the trajectory, some of them went straight to the outside of the court. It is estimated that even the players themselves don't know where they can kick.

Gao Yuyang couldn't bear to look directly at him anymore, he only knew one thing - if this kind of pass was played in Paris in the old man Blanco's era, with this kick, he would be eligible to be transferred to the B team. It is definitely the ending that will be discarded soon.

"Coach, when shall I go?"

Sitting on the bench and taking a deep breath, Gao Yuyang still asked.

Lippi kept noticing his expression, but he didn't say anything, he just said before going on the court: "Gao, don't worry, try to cooperate with the team first."

Gao Yuyang nodded helplessly. He understood Lippi's meaning: Don't expect Paris's kind of cooperation, lower the rhythm and speed by one gear, and keep up with everyone's rhythm first.

When Gao Yuyang got the ball, he no longer made an excessively fast-paced kick, but turned around and crushed the opponent's defense with his physical advantage.

He got the ball near the penalty area and turned around, looked up, according to his assumption, at this time the left and right wingers should have entered the opponent's penalty area without the ball, and the midfielder behind him should also run past him.

But he looked up and only saw Wu Lei in front of him, and there was no one else, that is to say, there was only one choice.

He could shoot by himself, but Gao Yuyang still chose to push the ball forward, straight to the space in front of Wu Lei.

He gave the best chance, but after Wu Lei took the ball this time, his close-range shot hit the goalkeeper with a "bang" again.

"Wow!"

Gao Yuyang couldn't help yelling, at this time Wu Lei was walking back, and when he heard Gao Yuyang's "admiration", he ran over and raised his hand: "It's mine, brother Yuyang, don't be so surprised. Haha! "

Gao Yuyang shrugged: "Brother Lei, you really should practice single sword!"

……

Lippi fully seized the opportunity of this teaching game to be able to change six players, and carried out a large-scale rotation of the lineup.Although the national team led 2:0 in the first half, Gao Yuyang played uncomfortable. After Wu Lei was replaced in the second half, Gao Yuyang played even more uncomfortable.

After all, Zheng Zhi is 36 years old, and it is not easy to be able to do a good job in the connection between the midfield and the backcourt. The only one who can match Gao Yuyang in terms of rhythm is Hao Junmin, who played for Schalke 04.But his age also comes into play here.

Shandong Luneng has always put up an iron bucket formation to face the siege of the national team. Even in the last 10 minutes of the game, the only thing Gao Yuyang did was to hold the opponent in the penalty area, raise his hand, and wait for the pass from the wing middle.

There is no way around this. He found that even if he can cooperate with the players around him, these players are not Di Maria or Draxler. They do not have the ability to dribble the ball in a dense defense. The result of complex cooperation Often the ball is sent directly to the opponent's goalkeeper.

……

After the game, after returning to the hotel, Lippi called Gao Yuyang to stop him.

"Gao, how do you feel about these two days of training?"

"It's pretty good, coach." Gao Yuyang smiled.

Lippi narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Of course it can't compare to your training intensity in Paris Saint-Germain, right?"

Gao Yuyang shrugged his shoulders. He believed that Lippi understood, and it was also a joke that didn't need to be answered.

"Do you think the strength of the national team can qualify for the World Cup?"

This is a direct question, but there are only Lippi and Madaloni in this room, so Gao Yuyang said with a smile: "We don't play a kind of football..."

It was very vague, but after he finished speaking, he could tell by observing Lippi's expression, because the old man just smiled, and then asked him: "So how do you think we can play football that can qualify for the World Cup?"

"At least it should be faster than the opponent!"

Gao Yuyang gave his own answer, but he didn't say that it should at least meet the rhythm of Paris. That kind of request is really a bit high-end.

But Lippi already counted, so he suspended all tactical training the next day and took out a brand new physical training form.

"Our next opponents are South Korea and Iran. In view of your performance in yesterday's game, boys, each of you needs to improve your physical fitness and run harder than them! If you want to appear in the next game, My requirement is that physical fitness must pass the test, and there is only one standard—to keep up with the high rhythm!"
