our champion dream

Chapter 182 The So-Called Rhythm

When Li Xiaoming and Li Qingru followed the crowd down the stands.

In Li Xiaoming's perception, this kind of viewing experience is not very good.Because in addition to cheering and shouting in the stands, there is an additional noise that makes people feel uncomfortable.An instrument known as the hum zula.

This is a big horn used by South African football fans to cheer. It originated from a sounding tool made of the horns of African antelopes to drive away baboons, expressing cheer, shouting and celebration on the field. "Huhusera" can emit a noise of more than [-] decibels, which may cause permanent hearing loss. Audiences from all over the world and World Cup football players have both liked and hated the sound of "Huhusera" .The person in charge of the host organization of the World Cup in South Africa said that this is part of South African culture. Since guests come to South Africa, they should accept South African culture and the way South African people celebrate.

"It's too noisy. If someone hadn't said to buy earplugs in advance, then I would definitely be deaf." Li Xiaoming took his own earplugs from his ears, "I really can't love this way of cheering."

It turned out that when Li Xiaoming and Li Qingru were on their way to the football city stadium before the game, besides the vendors selling Huhusera, there were also many white people selling a kind of transparent bag packaging.

thing.On closer inspection, it turned out to be earplugs.A trader told Li Xiaoming: "My friend, you haven't seen the ball in the stadium in South Africa. Buy one. It will definitely be useful to you. In the stands, listening to the sound of buzzing Sierra for so long will definitely make you feel very uncomfortable. ” After hesitating again and again, Li Xiaoming still bought it.Although it is said that I have come to South Africa, it is a matter of course to feel the most lethal weapon in the South African stadium.However, protective measures should be taken first.

As soon as they entered the football city stadium, Li Xiaoming and Li Qingru were suddenly disturbed by the unique "noise" of Huhuserat, which was definitely more than 100 decibels. The two of them quickly put on the second level.

Li Qingru, who is proficient in multiple languages, asked a South African fan who was playing Huhu Sila very hard beside him, you really can stand this kind of sound.The old man said very firmly: "The trumpet can make us forget the pain and let us feel the joy like this. The trumpet is a part of our life. If we don't do this, we can't enjoy the joy of football. Don't worry, take your time, you guys These foreign friends will get used to it."

Seeing Li Xiaoming's distressed face, Li Qingru was very appreciative, and said with a smile: "This is the culture here. Since you are here, you have to feel it."

Li Xiaoming spread out and said, "I'm also curious if I would be affected by the sound and shoot away the must-go goal if I was on the field."

~
Ended the NO.11 competition in June.What followed was the two games rented by B on the 12th.But Li Xiaoming did not appear at the scene, but wore it with the staff of several CCTV relay teams in the hotel. According to the arrangement, he needed to appear in the commentary booth of England and the United States on the 13th.For him, this is the first time, so of course he has to prepare carefully.

Li Qingru, on the other hand, was happy to stay alone in the hotel gym and started working out.

Li Xiaoming, on the other hand, was sitting in front of a desk in the temporary office of the CCTV relay team, carefully studying what he was going to say tomorrow.

At this time, He Ping walked up to Li Xiaoming with a cup of tea.

"How is it? What do you think of the first game?"

Li Xiaoming pondered for a while and said: "It can be said that the two games played were not as I expected, and both ended in a draw. It can be said that Mexico was tied. In terms of the individual skills, value, and overall level of the players, South Africa is not there. On top of that, South Africa only took advantage of the timing, location, and harmony. The ball couldn't get into Mexico's penalty area in the first 10 minutes, and they were always busy clearing the siege. And Mexico, led by No. 17 Santos, sent waves after waves Attacked and shot several powerful shots, but the angled shots were all hugged by the South African goalkeeper. If I want to choose the best player in this game, I think it must be the South African goalkeeper. If it weren’t for him, the victory would have been long ago It can be clearly seen. Although South Africa is desperately clearing the siege, it secretly attacked. Several counterattacks made people sweat, and they took the lead in breaking the border on the field, which made people frightened. From this, we can also see that Mexico's defense line is not as good as the striker The line is so strong. The speed is slow, the figure is not tall, and it is full of holes.

Maybe the long-term offense will inevitably lead to negligent defense.But I feel that the defensive line is Mexico's weakness, and it will be difficult to play against a strong opponent in the future.The draw is not reconciled to Mexico, because the next Uruguay and France are stronger than South Africa. If they lose a game in the next game, it will become slim to qualify for the group.Although South Africa is the host and would like to qualify for a place, but with its strength, it is really difficult.The president of South Africa also said that he could win the championship, which is really dumbfounding.Maybe he really isn't a fan.The game between France and Uruguay was dull.We were sleepy at night, and we thought that we could forget our sleepiness by the excitement of the game, but let the game increase our sleepiness.

It is said that Uruguay has the sharpest forward line among the 32 teams, but none of them have played their due level.The French coaches always feel wrong in the formation. With a player as good as Madalou, he is allowed to be a substitute, because Madalou is undisputed when he plays the midfielder at Chelsea.Can lead the team to launch waves of thrilling offenses, and can always shoot extremely powerful balls to create points.If he is allowed to sit on the bench in the next game, the way forward can be imagined.The level of Uruguay is greatly underestimated by us. They have the two most lethal strikers, one is Suarez, the top scorer of the Netherlands this season, and the other is Forlan, the two-time top scorer of Spain.I think that maybe the Uruguayans in the 10 World Cup may become the biggest dark horse, but Uruguay needs to improve its grasping ability.There was a goalless draw in this game, which is reasonable and lacks excitement. "

"So you are very optimistic about Uruguay?"

"Well, I think the trend of football is more and more attention to the whole, and the value of stars can only be reflected in the whole. Rather than saying that I am optimistic about Forlan and Suarez, it is better to say that I am optimistic about Uruguay as a whole, regardless of their current situation. Most of the players don't make a statement, but they are all capable. For example, this Godin is very good."

Li Xiaoming talked eloquently about the information in his hand.

"As expected, you are a talented midfielder. It seems that your understanding of tactics is quite deep. What you see seems to be farther than some guests I have seen. Maybe this is also related to your being in the top league Let's go." He Ping said while drinking tea. "Then what do you think of the Chinese team?"

Li Xiaoming was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect He Ping to ask this question.However, he quickly figured it out. Since He Ping is a professional football commentator, there must be a source of news. Naturally, he was very clear about Gao Hongbo's desire to draw them into the national team.It's just that the only thing he doesn't know is the attitude of Li Xiaoming and his group, because no one of them has said these things so far.Although there will always be Chinese fans asking Li Xiaoming whether he will go to the national team on Weibo, but he will always choose to turn a blind eye to such inquiries. Such things still need a suitable time.

Seeing Li Xiaoming hesitate, He Ping added: "Don't worry, in this circle, I know what to say and what not to say."

"Guide Gao Hongbo is a very thoughtful coach. I have watched the Chinese team's games. Gao Guidance, who has been promoting the rejuvenation and technicalization of the national football team, is always on the road to fight for it. But I think there is a technical gap between us and them. There may not be any difference physically, and there is not much difference physically, the only thing, I think, is the rhythm, the rhythm of the national football team is too slow."

"This is a very heartfelt thought. You must know that in the eyes of many people and even professional media, the poor level of the national football team is due to not good enough health and poor technology."

Li Xiaoming curled his lips and continued: "I didn't know until I arrived in Europe that the biggest gap between us and European players is in the control of rhythm. They are always in a high-intensity and high-speed confrontation. The consumption of physical energy is very large. If the consumption is large, it means that the control of the body will be reduced, so there will be situations where we cannot compete with others. However, for the national football team, we have always thought that as long as there is no emergency, if there is no emergency The national team is willing to sign us and we are willing to play."

"The most important thing is your words. You know, as a commentator, I still think the national team's uniforms are better than those of other national teams."

He Ping said with a smile, looking very happy.
