Chapter 389: Hometown Invitation

What Messi calls TikiTaka is a possession style of play in which almost every player is involved through constant passing and running. It started when Cruyff was in charge of Barcelona, and has since been carried forward by Louis van Gaal, Rijkaard, Pep Guardiola and Aragonés (paying homage to the old coach who has passed away). The current representative teams are Barcelona and the Spanish national team.

Tiki-Taka is not a Spanish or English, or one of the other commonly used words, it was first used to describe football tactics and is believed to have been used by Andrés Montes, an announcer on Spanish television six during the 2006 Shijie Cup. Describing the Spanish tactics of the Spanish team against Tunisia, Montes said: "Estamostocandotiki-takatiki-taka."

The Tiki-Taka tactic is thought to have originated during Cruyff's time at Barcelona from 1988 to 1996, then developed by Dutch coaches Louis van Gaal and Rijkaard, and used by other La Liga teams. In the Spanish national team, this tactic was used during Javier Clemente's tenure in charge of the Spanish national team (1992-1998), but the most successful was when Aragonés coached the Spanish national team to Euro 2008, which had just ended. And as a country from Cruyff's Barcelona era, as well as Clemente's national team era, Pep Guardiola. Naturally, there will be no strangers to tiki-taka tactics.

However, while watching the main team members walk the monkeys in a circle, Han Sen found that unlike all the teams he had before, there were always one or two players in each team who might be a little rougher. And then always fail in this game of monkey walking, and happily accept the punishment of his teammates, but now it seems that in a top club like Barcelona, it is not so easy for you to pick out one or two rough players, even the big Pique looks a little clumsy, but his feet are very good. There are almost no missed moments.

Listening to the laughter and joy on the other side of the training ground, Han Sen suddenly began to feel a little overwhelmed, and couldn't help but want to step forward to join. It's like every time you come to the football field, you can't wait to touch the ball.

Of course, this wish was not easy to achieve for a while, and Guardiola told Luiz not to let the two touch the ball. Now it's just a matter of recovering with light exercise. And the so-called slight. It was only a slight intensity, not a time issue, because it wasn't until the first team had finished training that Han Sen and Messi began to run laps.

When the training was over, it was naturally another night, Messi's project was completed earlier than Han Sen, and he left early after saying hello, Han Sen originally wanted to be alone with Messi today. just took the opportunity to have a meal with Messi, which can be regarded as getting closer. Unexpectedly, Messi left first without waiting for himself to speak.

"Remember me?" Han Sen packed up his things and walked to the door of La Masia, a middle-aged man greeted him in English with a pleasant face, Han Sen looked up, isn't it, isn't this the Boad who received Shanghai East Asia to play in the first place? Of course, the name has long been forgotten, so I have to smile to hide the embarrassment.

Bouad took out a business card: "It has my number on it, if you need to come to La Masia to train alone, call me at any time, of course, after your appearance has been integrated with the Barcelona club, it is estimated that no one will stop you." ”

Han Sen thanked him again and again and took the business card, and Bouad then took out a bunch of keys: "This is someone gave it to you." ”

Han Sen took the key suspiciously, thinking to himself, could someone give me a house? When he followed Bouad's finger, it dawned on him that the black racing motorcycle he had bought in Mallorca had arrived in Barcelona and was now quietly parked in the parking lot, waiting for the owner's call.

Just when Han Sen experienced a brutal fight for the national team and the national Olympic team, and once again resumed the calm training rhythm in Mallorca and the training life of sunrise and sunset, Barcelona's start in the Spanish Primera Division was not satisfactory, and they lost 0-1 away to Numancia in the first round. Obviously, the large-scale recruitment between the seasons has not been able to achieve immediate results, on the contrary, the departure of Ronaldinho, Deco and others has also caused the team's labor pain and discomfort, and secondly, the Shijie Cup qualifiers that will be held immediately have also divided the hearts of the players, and even Messi, who has just finished the Olympic Games, has to play with the national team.

Anyway, Du Yi and Forado left class collectively, and no one would have thought of organizing a game on a FIFA match day, anyway, Han Sen did not receive any calls and messages from the national team call-up, and in the contact with overseas players such as Dong Fangzhuo and Zheng Zhi, the other party also did not know anything about this matter.

The national team's phone call was not received, and there were a lot of calls from the domestic media and various units, the first of which was a call from the Jiangxi Provincial Sports Committee in his hometown, almost one every day, asking Han Sen if he could return to China to participate in the province's commendation meeting for the Beijing Olympic Games, he was the only Jiangxi athlete who could not participate at present.

According to the Provincial Sports Commission, in addition to Han Sen, a total of 10 Jiangxi athletes participated in the Olympic Games, namely Wu Jingyu (women's taekwondo 49 kg), Tao Yujia (track and field women's 4×100m relay), Zhang Zhiwu (men's double canoe 1000 meters), Zhou Peng (men's quadruple kayak 1000 meters), Gao Yulan (women's rowing double sculls without helms), Wu You (women's rowing double sculls without helms), Feng Guixin (women's rowing quadruple sculls), Jin Ziwei (women's rowing quadruple sculls), Yang Wenjun (men's double canoe 500m), He Hanbin (badminton mixed doubles). The selection of 11 athletes into the Olympic squad is also unprecedented in the previous Olympic Games, and the results achieved are even more historical, winning a total of 3 gold medals, 1 silver medal, 1 bronze medal, 1 fourth place, 1 fifth place, and 1 seventh place. Among them, Gao Yulan won the silver medal in the women's double sculls in rowing, which is the best Olympic result of a Chinese athlete in this event. Jin Ziwei won the gold medal in the women's quadruple sculls, which was the first rowing gold medal in the history of the Chinese Olympics and the first Olympic gold medal in rowing for an Asian. He Hanbin won the bronze medal in badminton mixed doubles, which was a historic breakthrough in Jiangxi badminton. Wu Jingyu won the taekwondo women's 49 kg gold medal, which is the first gold medal in the history of China's taekwondo Olympics. Yang Wenjun won the men's double canoe 500m championship for the second consecutive year. In addition, Zhang Zhiwu, who finished fifth in the men's double canoe 1000m, and Zhou Peng, who finished seventh in the men's kayak quadruple 1000m, achieved the best results of the Olympics in their respective events, although they did not win medals.

Although Han Sen's National Olympic football team only won the fourth place, there is no doubt that due to the huge influence of football and Han Sen's outstanding contribution to the Olympic Games, his brilliance has completely overshadowed other Jiangxi athletes who have even won gold medals, plus Han Sen is different from the above-mentioned athletes, he is a model of complete talent outside the system, so if Han Sen can appear at the colorful party held by this government, it will naturally be the greatest affirmation of the work of the provincial government and the sports committee. But Han Sen's success is said to be in the Beijing Institute of Economics and Business, and then the trip to study abroad and be selected for the National Olympic team and even the national team are completely their own personal behavior, you said that you insist on participating in the award in this hometown, out of favor and out of attachment and repayment to the birthplace, it is not impossible, but the Provincial Sports Commission and the Football Association do not take the route of the club and the brokerage company, but just call themselves, they want to go, who will give them a holiday?
