Chapter 175 Exciting Melody

March 28, 5 p.m. local time, Azadi Stadium, Tehran.

The altitude of the Iranian plateau is about 1,000 meters, March and April is the spring of the plateau, the temperature is about 178 degrees, the body surface feels still a little cold, the cold air from the north to the south is blocked by the plateau at this time, and April is the gathering of more rainfall on the Iranian plateau.

The rain was pouring down, but that didn't stop the fans from getting hot.

Iranian fans in white robes have already occupied the stands, but the television footage has also shown the area where the Chinese fans gather.

There are not too many Chinese fans who come to the Azadi Stadium, only two or three hundred, not that the Chinese fans are not interested in this game, but that there are only so many tickets provided to the away team by the Azadi Stadium, and it is really hard to find a ticket.

The Chinese working in Iran are close to the water, so most of the people who can buy tickets to enter the stadium are employees of Chinese institutions in Iran, workers of construction companies, and staff of the Tehran embassy.

In fact, in the VIP table, the Chinese ambassador and high-ranking Iranian officials were also present.

Football is an arena for athletes to fight, and the VIP seats in the stands are a social arena for high-level people.

Not many fans are interested in keeping their eyes on the VIP seats at the top of the stadium, and most are still looking forward to the start of the game sooner.

At this time, in the dressing rooms of both sides, the managers of both teams are making the final pre-match mobilization.

Manuel Queiroz has been the head coach of Iran since 2011 and is the godfather of the "golden generation" of Iranian football.

Most Manchester United fans may have the impression that Queiroz was an assistant coach to Manchester United in the 2002-2003 season, becoming an assistant to Alex Ferguson, but he only stayed at Manchester United for one season, and then became the manager of Real Madrid, but in the position of Real Madrid manager, Queiroz only stayed for a year, and then returned to Manchester United and worked as an assistant to Lord Ferguson for four years.

"Defend!!" Queiroz stressed.

"Cut off the link between Li Qingshan and the other Chinese team players!! As long as we provide enough defensive intensity, the Chinese team will definitely make mistakes!! Of their three midfielders, Hao Junmin had the highest pass success rate, but it was less than 70 per cent!! Limit Li Qingshan's chances to get the ball, and then catch their passing mistakes!! We retreat and hit them to fight back!! ”

Queiroz has a calm face, that's his style, and Queiroz rarely gets impassioned.

Iran's players nodded frequently.

Queiroz is the godfather of the "golden generation", and naturally he has godfather-like authority in the Iranian national team!

In this World Preliminary Tournament, Iran is the team that conceded the fewest goals in Asia, their defense is very resilient, the players are very good at running, complementing each other, and the strong physical fitness of the Persians also makes them not afraid of any physical confrontation.

"We're going to get the ball up! There must be no mistakes!! 'That's what Lippi stressed in the dressing room.

Although there is Li Qingshan in the Chinese team's lineup, the other players have suffered a lot in physical confrontation when facing Iran.

The physical fitness of the Chinese team is actually quite good in Asia, even in the face of the South Korean team, the Chinese team is not at a loss in terms of physical confrontation.

But there are two teams in Asia that are so strong in their physicality that other Asian countries are afraid of them.

One is Australia in the South Pacific, and the other is Iran in West Asia. In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the Persian Iron Rider almost drew Argentina with a strong defense, if it were not for Messi's last-minute stunner, Argentina might have collapsed in the group stage, and there would be no World Cup final by Götze...

Iran's defense is very good, but they don't have many offensive methods, usually long passes to the head of the striker, or play two counter-attacks.

It looks monotonous, but Iran is relying on its strong physical fitness and counterattack speed to beat the invincible opponents all over Asia. The backwardness of Asian football has given these countries a big advantage in terms of physical fitness, and even Japan, who claim to be the most skilled Asian team, have been restrained by their strong physical shock currents when facing teams like Australia or Iran...

Similarly, it is actually difficult for the Chinese team to resist these two moves of Iran, the overall technical level of the Chinese team, even with Li Qingshan, can not take advantage of Asia, if Iran's counterattack and body collision are so rushed, the defense line is likely to be directly broken down by the other party.

As for the offensive aspect, Lippi is not too worried, the Chinese team has Li Qingshan, and in the Asian competition, the offensive ability of the Chinese team is always first-class.

"We need to create more set-piece chances, corners, or fouls!!" In order to better exert the power of Li Qingshan, set-pieces are the most powerful weapon.

.......

Outside the stadium, the raindrops gradually subsided, the clouds gradually dispersed, and the sunlight poured down through the gaps between the white clouds.

The players are already lined up in the tunnel of the players.

On the live TV screen, the camera has been locked on Li Qingshan, who is wearing the captain's armband.

"Captain China!! He will lead the Chinese team to the battlefield of the World Cup!! "Duan Xuan is rare in literature and art.

Li Qingshan took the team flag, sorted out the captain's armband on his arm, and then fastened the strap of his football pants.

The other players of the Iranian team all looked at Li Qingshan from time to time.

This is the top football player in the world, fortunately, his teammates are not strong, otherwise if Li Qingshan and his Manchester United teammates come to play Iran, Iran will simply surrender.

The referee from Australia looked at their watch, and the referee then shouted behind him and led the players of both teams onto the pitch.

There was a cheer at the Azadi Stadium, and the big robes stood in the stands and bounced.

The fans of the Chinese team also waved flags in their hands and cheered at the Chinese players.

The Chinese team and the Iranian team are one east and one west, and on weekdays, it can be regarded as river water not well water, so there was no boo from the stadium at this time.

"Players from both teams stepped onto the pitch! This is a direct matchup between the first and second place in the group, and the result of this game will greatly affect the qualification situation of the entire group. ”

The players of the two teams stood in line, and the national team match began with the national anthems of the two countries.

The melody of the March of the Volunteers, resounding on the Iranian plateau.

The players of the Chinese team put their arms on each other's shoulders and sang this exciting melody.
