Chapter 1477 1 Everything Is up to You

The friendly match between Tottenham Hotspur and the Chinese national football team has already touched the hearts of thousands of fans. (Read novel) The friendly match was originally scheduled to start at 19:30 in the evening. At 5 pm, fans came to the Workers' Stadium. At 5:30 pm, the 64,000 seats of the Workers' Stadium were already full, and they began to cheer for their favorite stars. Of course, without exception, they all cheered for the Tottenham Hotspur players.

"Beckenham!"

"Messi!"

"Kaka!"

The names of Tottenham Hotspur players resounded over the Workers' Stadium. As for the other protagonist - the national team, it was almost forgotten.

"Mr. Lin, it seems that if you play a few more games with the national team, your team will soon become the most popular foreign football club in China!" Yan Shiduo said with a smile.

Lin Feng smiled faintly. Yan Shiduo's words were obviously meaningful, suggesting that he would bring the team to China to play a few more games in the future. In this way, the Football Association can also sell more tickets and make more money.

"Okay, the game is about to start. I'm more used to watching the game on site, so I'll go down first." Lin Feng said hello and turned to leave. Lin Feng would go crazy if he stayed with these people to watch the game.

"I didn't expect Mr. Lin to have this hobby, so we won't disturb Mr. Lin from enjoying the game. But no matter what, friendship comes first, and the game comes second! By the way, Mr. Lin, if the national football team can score a goal, I think the fans will be even crazier, and this will also build up strong confidence for the young men of the national football team." Nan Yong stood up to see Lin Feng off, and at the same time did not forget to repeatedly remind Lin Feng to let Tottenham Hotspur let up.

Lin Feng smiled and nodded, but turned around and hummed secretly.

When Lin Feng came to the stadium through the player's tunnel, the Chinese national anthem and Tottenham Hotspur's team song had just been played on the field.

"Hey, Jose, how are you going to play this game today?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

Mourinho shrugged.

"Although this is a commercial match, we must also show the momentum of our team. But don't worry, I will let them control their adrenaline and will not embarrass your country too much." Mourinho is naturally rigorous and never underestimates any opponent. Even if it is a commercial match, Mourinho has carefully studied the previous matches and several key players of the Chinese national team before the game. The final conclusion is that this team is only at the level of a mid-stream team in the English Championship, and such strength is completely no threat to Tottenham Hotspur. But Mourinho still decided to send all the main players.

Of course,

Considering that this is the national team of Lin Feng's motherland, Mourinho also understands that he will give them some water.

Lin Feng shook his head.

"Jose, I hope you can do your best in this game, let these guys play the strongest attacking power to attack the defense of the Chinese national team, and show them what is the world-class football level!" Lin Feng said.

Mourinho was stunned. If they really attack with all their strength, the scene will be very ugly. Don't forget that in the FA Cup last season, Tottenham Hotspur beat a Championship team by 11:0.

"Jose, I want to let them know how far our national team's level is from the world-class level!" Lin Feng said.

Mourinho nodded. The so-called shame leads to courage, maybe Lin Feng is ready to do so.

"However, in the first half, I hope to let them attack. Let them feel what a world-class defense looks like." Lin Feng said. Since I have already promised the Football Association, I can't break my promise. Let them attack. But don't blame me if they can't get in.

Mourinho nodded and waved his hand. Deco, the core midfielder on the field, was slightly stunned when he saw this gesture. Originally, they were supposed to play freely and play as they pleased without losing the ball. But this gesture asked them to defend. What does this mean? However, everyone listened to Mourinho's words very much, and the situation on the field changed immediately, from an offensive formation to a defensive formation.

Hey! On the Chinese national football team, the two forwards were most sensitive to Tottenham's change of formation. When Li Yi saw Beckenham return from the right forward to the defensive midfielder position, he felt that the opponent's aggressive momentum was gone. You know, when Beckenham appeared on the right, the backs of all the team's defenders were cold. You should know that Tottenham Hotspur's two wingers Robben and C Ronaldo are both super fast horses, and the center forward Drogba has both speed and strength. When Beckenham's "Crescent Moon Scimitar" flies, all defenders are terrified.

But at this moment, Beckenham retreated to the defensive midfielder position, which was not so threatening. Could it be that Li Yi thought of the officials of the Football Association before this game asking everyone to relax and play, try their best to attack, play the momentum of Chinese football, and play the level of Chinese football. Li Yi didn't understand at that time, but now he understands. It seems that there is some behind-the-scenes deal in the middle.

Thinking of this, Li Yi's eyes lit up. This is a good opportunity to make a name for himself. If he can score a goal against Tottenham's world-class defense, whether it is a friendly match or not, it will double his value. Not to mention playing abroad, he can get more appearance fees even in China. As for the income behind the scenes, don't even mention it.

In an instant, Henry's dribbling appeared on Li Yi, and he kicked, kicked, and kicked. With a few high-speed changes, he threw Drogba and Deco away and rushed straight into the key point of Tottenham's midfield.

All the fans in the stands cheered! Although they came to see Tottenham, they were naturally very happy to see the national team players play a high-level game. But before Li Yi had enough fun, the ball under his feet was robbed by Davis. Davis had defended the real Henry, so this fake Henry was naturally no problem at all.

But what excited the fans was that the national football team regained the ball again in a few moves and launched a crazy attack on Tottenham. However, after 30 minutes, Tottenham's defense was as solid as a rock. No matter how Li Yi and others attacked like Henry, they could not break into Tottenham's defense. They could only occasionally shoot a few long shots to warm up goalkeeper Cech.

Although the defense led by Cannavaro and others was as solid as a rock, everyone was quite dissatisfied with such a completely passive defense. Although they came to play a commercial game, they were not happy to be suppressed after playing for so long. But at this moment, Mourinho waved his hand again, changing from passive defense to active defense, signaling all players to move up and block the opponent's offensive outside the penalty area.

With this change of formation, the Chinese national football team could still attack the penalty area and occasionally shoot, but now they could not even see the shadow of the goal. The breakthrough was intercepted, the pass was intercepted, and the ball was protected by the oppressive close defense, causing frequent mistakes. In fifteen minutes, in just fifteen minutes, the Chinese national football team was like experiencing a life-and-death battle, sweating and panting.

But at this moment, there was applause in the stands. For all fans, it is an extremely exciting thing to witness the football team suppressing the Premier League runner-up.

"Look at me protecting the ball just now, is it like Henry?" Li Yi was the most excited at this moment. In the entire first half, he was the only one in the team who had three shooting opportunities, and he had the most opportunities to enter the penalty area. Although he did not score, he was able to create a killing opportunity in front of Tottenham Hotspur's goal, which was enough to make him excited. At this moment, he was facing the reporters and shouted excitedly.

Many reporters looked at me and I looked at you, and there was a moment of silence. If it was Henry, he should have scored in the first half. But in the first half, although you shot, it was either too soft or missed. Although the difference seems small, it is actually a thousand miles away. Of course, many reporters will naturally not question Li Yi in person. They are just wondering why Tottenham Hotspur is so weak today. Even if it is a commercial game, it should not be suppressed by the national football team and cannot pass the half!

"Good, good, keep the offensive like this in the second half! I believe it is reasonable to break through Tottenham's goalkeeper!" As a coach, Ali Han naturally saw the strangeness in this. Tottenham was clearly letting the water in the first half. Otherwise, how could they be suppressed by the Chinese national team for half a game, let alone shooting, and even didn't attack the penalty area. Obviously, there is a behind-the-scenes deal. However, Ali Han has become accustomed to this. Anyway, as long as it does not affect his position as a coach, these leaders above can operate behind the scenes as they like.

"Coach, we don't want to defend in the second half. We want to attack!" Drogba shouted after entering the lounge. It was too polite in the first half. The opponent's defenders had passed the center circle, and the goalkeeper was almost involved in the attack. If he was not allowed to attack, he would have completed a hat trick long ago.

Mourinho smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, you can fire freely in the second half. You can use as much strength as you can, but remember it, don't get hurt. If anyone gets injured in this game to score more goals, don't even think about playing next season!" Mourinho glared, and all the players immediately agreed.

Although Lin Feng knew this ending long ago, he was ready to let his team teach the national football team a lesson. But thinking that his national team was about to be slaughtered, he still felt a little sad. Alas, when will the national football team be able to rise!

At this time, Lin Feng received another call from Nan Yong.

"Mr. Lin, the first half of the game was really exciting. You must have heard the cheers of the fans at the scene. It's been a long time since the fans cheered for the national team so excitedly. The first hero should thank you, Mr. Lin." Nan Yong praised him.

Lin Feng just smiled faintly. What Nan Yong said was all bullshit, and his focus was on the back.

Sure enough!

"Mr. Lin, the first half of the game was so exciting, but there was a lack of a goal. It is really distressing to see the boys trying their best but failing to score a goal. In the long run, this will be a blow to their self-confidence, which is not conducive to the long-term development of the national team. Mr. Lin, I think it is better not to do it." Although Nan Yong is thick-skinned, he still can't say some shameless words.

"Do you want my team to let them score one or two goals?" Lin Feng said lightly.

Nan Yong laughed when he heard it.

"But if we let the team go at this time, I'm afraid the fans will notice it, which will be bad for the national team. I think it's better to do this. I'll withdraw a defender and add a forward. What do you think?" Lin Feng said sarcastically.

Unfortunately, Nan Yong didn't hear Lin Feng's sarcasm.

"Haha, that couldn't be better. Mr. Lin is really righteous. Of course, if we withdraw two defenders and replace them with two forwards, it will be even better!" Nan Yong laughed.

"Okay, no problem, everything is up to you." Lin Feng said and hung up the phone.

"Jose, what do you think of using only two defenders in the second half?" Lin Feng smiled slightly, "I remember you used a crazy attack formation with two defenders before. Why don't you do it again this time, but don't lose the ball, can you do it?"

226 formation? ——Many players in the locker room were shocked. But then they became excited. This is a super offensive lineup. Although the defense will be very fragile, the opponent's strength is not good. All the players stared at Mourinho blankly, waiting for Mourinho's order.

After thinking for a while, Mourinho nodded, thought about it, and gave the order.

"In the second half, the back line will be partnered by Cannavaro and Carvalho, and the two defensive midfielders will be Essien and Beckenham. As for the front court..." Mourinho had a headache. Arranging six attacking players in the front court, although he had been crazy like this before, it was also a stopgap measure under no choice. But at this moment, actively using a 6-attack front court lineup, it really needs to be carefully considered his ability to arrange troops. Especially Tottenham Hotspur has many super front courts, who to let play and how to partner is really a bit difficult to choose.

After some thinking, Mourinho made a decision!

"Drogba plays as a center forward, Messi plays as a shadow forward, as for Ronaldo and Robben, they are still double wingers, and as for Kaka and Deco, they play as double front midfielders." Mourinho had no choice but to arrange an extremely strange formation. This formation looks extremely powerful, but the abilities of these players in the front court will definitely overlap, which will result in considerable waste. However, once a tacit understanding is formed, a super terrifying offensive power will be exerted. This game is just a drill for chasing points when falling behind in future games! ——Mourinho was really serious for the first time in this game.

Although this is a commercial game, it can be used to practice the team's future lineup for chasing points when falling behind, so Mourinho will naturally not relax. If such a front court combination can form a tacit understanding, it will be a blessing for Tottenham Hotspur in the future! In the future, when chasing points, who can match such a terrifying and tacit lineup!

At this time, the halftime break ended and the second half of the game officially began!
