Chapter 62: Waves

The day before the semi-finals, CCTV's sports channel began to broadcast the promotional video of the semi-finals of the Club World Cup at various times. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The main footage is a clip of Guangzhou Evergrande's training in Morocco, interspersed with interviews with the players.

For example, when Zhang Linpeng's training video appeared on the screen, the screen suddenly flashed, and Zhang Linpeng's interview video was inserted.

On the TV screen, Zhang Linpeng, who still had a few pimples on his face, said firmly: "The main purpose of this game is to see the gap between us and the world's top teams. ”

The short two-minute video is fairly tightly edited.

When Li Qingshan appeared in the picture, what Li Qingshan said in front of the camera was not edited by CCTV.

"Do I want to beat my opponent in the competition, get to the final and win the Club World Cup!"

The promotional video of Guangzhou Evergrande vs. Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup has caused a great response among fans in China.

Of course, the main reason is that Li Qingshan faced the camera and said, "We want to win the Club World Cup", which made many people feel that Li Qingshan was a little too arrogant.

Some media commented specifically on Li Qingshan's words: "We must admit that Guangzhou Evergrande's performance in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League is very good. But if they are facing Bayern Munich, they should let go of their dominance mentality at home, lower their profile, learn from the world's top teams, and seriously look for gaps, so that they will be helpful to the Guangzhou Evergrande team. ”

Some fans also think that Li Qingshan is too smooth sailing in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League this season, so he is a little carried away.

Li Qingshan's words actually became hot news on the Internet for a while.

Can Guangzhou Evergrande beat Bayern Munich?

The answer to this question is almost obvious, and no one will think that this issue is worth discussing. On the Internet, on the contrary, there are many critics of Li Qingshan's attitude.

Some fans even seemed a little distressed: I actually like Li Qingshan very much, how many years has it been for such a characteristic player to appear in our country. However, as a young player, the most important thing is to have a calm mentality and not drift away with some achievements.

His words were deeply meaningful, but they were approved by many netizens.

And some Weibo big Vs who usually don't pay attention to football at all also rushed out to gain popularity.

Some big Vs, who are accustomed to blacking out when they mention Chinese football, also took the opportunity to mock on their Weibo: "Some people forget who they are when they have a little achievement." It's no wonder that none of the Chinese players have grown up in captivity, and they haven't read any books, so it's good for everyone to understand. ”

But his words were soon slapped in the face by fans: Li Qingshan still retains his student status at the University of Manchester.

The big V who was slapped in the face began to use the keyboard to call friends and fans. It's a mess of chicken feathers.

The domestic disturbances will naturally be affected by the Guangzhou Evergrande team in Morocco.

On the way back to the hotel after training, Zhao Peng, who was sitting in the back row, propped himself up in a chair and leaned over to say behind Li Qingshan's head.

"I said, Aoyama. Do you dare to say such a thing? Club World Cup champion!! Is it that easy to take....."

Li Qingshan turned his head and said, "Of course I know it's not easy to take, but I can't even think about it?" ”

When Zhao Peng heard this, he shook his hand in the posture of a senior and said, "Qingshan, you are still too young." Others think about it, how can it be like you, say it openly, you ......."

Li Qingshan didn't give face to his predecessors at all, he directly interrupted Zhao Peng's words and said: "When I played in the amateur league in England, the amateur team was always able to eliminate Liverpool, is the gap between our team and Bayern Munich as big as the gap between the amateur team and Liverpool!" ”

Zhao Peng saw that the score of his predecessors was not placed, so he smiled a little embarrassedly, touched his nose and didn't know how to answer this stunned young man.

The conversation between the two of them certainly caught the attention of the other players. In fact, when this video was broadcast, the players of Guangzhou Evergrande knew that Li Qingshan, who is usually honest and honest, actually had such an arrogant side.

Maybe it shouldn't be described as arrogant, it should be called self-confidence?

At this time, the captain Zheng Zhi came over and patted Li Qingshan's shoulder with one hand.

"Well said, Aoyama, you're right! Why can't you even think about it! Let's really fight this time! ”

With the captain taking the lead, the players of Guangzhou Evergrande are naturally not far behind.

"That's right, when it comes to this, how can we start this trip without fighting!"

"It's all two shoulders and one head, who's afraid of whom..."

"You said we really won the Club World Cup........

"You're really gasping for ......"

For a while, the carriage was full of laughter. The members of the coaching staff sitting at the front did not participate in the frolicking of the players. But in such an atmosphere, there was also a smile on the corner of their mouths.

The turmoil about Li Qingshan's words rippled through the pre-match press conference the day before the game.

When Lippi was asked by a reporter about this topic. Silver Fox Lippi only rhetorically said: "Of course I understand what the players think. It's not hubris, it's respect for this game and we're going to give it our all for every game, including this one. ”

Originally, Li Qingshan's remarks were only limited to China, but at the press conference, reporters with good things also asked Guardiola about this topic.

Guardiola was clearly unprepared for this after being asked, and after a pause, he said: "We respect every opponent and are actively preparing for it. For Guangzhou Evergrande, we have enough respect that we will carefully analyze this opponent. I'll watch the footage of their game and we'll be playing against that opponent tomorrow. ”

In fact, Guardiola has some impressions of Li Qingshan. As Bayern Munich's opponent in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup, Pep Guardiola still knows a little about their opponents.

On the day of the match between Guangzhou Evergrande and Al Ahly, Bayern's technical official Rosenkrones appeared in the media booth and recorded the whole game.

Li Qingshan, who scored twice in the first game, is naturally a key player for Guangzhou Evergrande.

Pep Guardiola even asked for Li Qingshan's video to be sorted out for him after hearing his assistant mention Li Qingshan's goal statistics in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League.

But when he watched Li Qingshan's game video, he was a little disappointed. Although he does not deny that Li Qingshan is a very capable center forward, he does not like this type of player, because Li Qingshan's characteristics are completely different from his tactical philosophy.

In Pep Guardiola's tactical philosophy, he sublimated the 433 structure laid by Cruyff for Barcelona in Barcelona and took the concept of ball control to the extreme.

From 2009 to 2012, Barcelona was born in what can be described as the greatest period in the history of the team. In the future, it was customary to call Barcelona the Cosmos as a tribute to the unprecedented Barcelona dream team.

The most terrifying thing about Pep Guardiola's team is not that they have won 14 trophies in four years, nor have they created an unprecedented six-time title, but that they can use possession to turn any team into a weak side, and the opponent cannot play a long continuous offensive climax on the field, and can only rely on sporadic counterattacks and set-pieces to threaten Barcelona. Whether it is Real Madrid in the national derby or Manchester United in the Champions League, in front of Mengsan, they can only be exhausted in Barcelona's possession tactics. That's what the horror of that Barcelona team is, keeping the ball at their feet, tearing up all the confidence of their opponents with their passes, and inadvertently delivering the fatal blow.

And a player like Li Qingshan is not the center forward that Guardiola needs. After reading Li Qingshan's information, Guardiola suddenly thought.

Such a player, probably his old opponent will like it very much.
