On the 7th, the Zagreb Invitational ushered in its 12th match day. Four fierce quarter-finals will be staged today, deciding the final four teams.

Although these players are not from professional echelons, looking around the quarterfinals, except for China, they are all traditional football powers, which also shows that traditional football powers will inevitably lead other countries in the socialization of football.

Whether it is a veteran team like Baadsie, or an emerging strong team like Kebo, the results of the adult team are remarkable. China unexpectedly seized a seat in the strong team Portugal, and against the backdrop of the other seven teams, this accident has been further amplified.

Zhao Dayu is also self-aware that there is still a big gap between his team and strong teams. He also cherishes this observation and learning opportunity. He used a camera to carefully capture the competitions of each team, which not only serves the current team's use of analyzing opponents, but also guides the development needs of domestic youth training in the long run. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone.

There is still time before the game at 4 pm, and the Chinese team came to watch the two games at 10 pm.

Compared with the group stage, the teams that have been left to this moment have very high technical and tactical qualities. Both sides have shown a high level on the court. The wonderful cooperation and goals from time to time have also made Chinese players on the sidelines applaud frequently.

The showdown between Germany and Spain fully reflects the confrontation of their country's football style. The German chariot style is tenacious and determined, while the Spanish Bullfighters are talented and passionate.

Spain first took the lead with Navas' goal, and the German then tied the score with Podolsky's goal;

After the draw, the two sides fought fiercely until the final stage of the second half, and Fran overtook the score with a header;

Just as Espanyol was preparing to celebrate, the tenacious German tied the score again with a blast penalty and dragged the game into overtime.

In overtime, facing the Germans' steel defense line, the Bullfighters continued to attack and tried to win the opponent, but never thought that they would lose the rice. Germany's quick counterattack completely sank the Spanish Invincible Armada and knocked on the door to the semi-finals first.

As English football legend Leinker said, football is a game where 22 people grab the ball on the court and then the Germans win.

As the champion of the European Cup in 1996, the light of German football shines all over the world, and four years later, on another field, their children are still writing the legend of the German Chariot.

In another game played across the river, Brazil won Poland in the regular season with a goal of Rodrigo, with a score of 1:0. The unfinished story on the French Stadium two years ago is expected to be a sequel.

It is worth mentioning that if the Chinese team can eliminate the host, their opponent in the semi-finals will be Brazil. I just don’t know if the courage of these kung fu boys can be staged again.

On the way back to the apartment, everyone came to joke with Li Weizhen and said, "Weizhen, if you come to the Golden Ball again, the bonus that the coach rewards us will be given to you!"

Li Weizhen laughed and said, "Then don't regret it!"

"There is absolutely no problem!" Everyone answered in unison.

Li Weizhen restrained his smile. Although this opponent was very strong, he still believed that the team could defeat the opponent. He clenched his fists hard and cheered himself firmly: "Li Weizhen, you can definitely do it!"

After returning to the apartment, Uncle Kovac also prepared the meal and everyone enjoyed another delicious lunch.

After lunch, the team held a short meeting, emphasized the tactical requirements again, and carried out the last mobilization and cheering before the game.

The team lined up a 451 formation for the first time.

Dong Yuanzhuo was at the front, with the two central vanguards being Li Weizhen and Liang Shuang, the two vanguards being Chen Tao and Xu Te, the back midfielder being Zhou Haibing, the four defenders being Shu Chang, Feng Xiaoting, Zeng Jiyao and Yuan Weiwei, and the goalkeeper Yu Ziqian.

The biggest change of the team is to further enrich the thickness of the midfield. Not only did the front midfielder Liang Shuang retreat to the position of the central forward, but even forward Li Weizhen was pulled back, strengthening the interception role in the midfield;

In addition, a midfielder was specially added to place Zhou Haibing, who had a strong defense and sweeping area, behind the midfield, and before the defender, it was a bit similar to the scavenger. The main purpose was to weaken the control of the opponent's No. 14 core to the greatest extent.

Zhao Dayu did not arrange for engineer players like Zhengming and You Zigui to hoard midfielders, but instead pulled back the two attacking main players Li Liang. The main purpose was to combine attack from defense. Once the stage of entering the stage of defensive to offense, the two will step forward in an orderly manner, quickly get in place, and release the attack power as soon as possible;

On the surface, the arrangement is 451, but in fact, when counterattack, it will quickly become 4312, and even become the 433 they are accustomed to;

In this tactical arrangement, Li Weizhen was regarded as the most critical link. His advance and retreat were signals of the team's pressure or retreat. His teammates were all acting on his dynamics. For this young Guangxi player, this was a arduous task. Whether it was physical fitness, observation, consciousness, or running, it would be a comprehensive investigation.

After clarifying the requirements, Zhao Dayu glanced at everyone and said, "It's finally here this afternoon. There is nothing to say or anything to keep. It's better to fight like the previous game. No matter what difficulties you face, don't give up, encourage and support each other, and you will definitely have hope if you persist in the end."

Looking at his bright and hot eyes, he continued to stir up, "Croatia is not much better than Portugal. Their level should be equal. Croatia No. 14 is not necessarily better than Portugal No. 7."

"We can defeat Portugal, and today we can also defeat Croatia. As long as our determination, courage and will are in place, there will be no enemy that cannot be defeated. As our great Chairman M said, all reactionaries are paper tigers."

"You did a great job in the last game. Not to mention that they were paper tigers, even if they were real tigers, there were times when they were napping. Take advantage of their illness and kill them! I think you are real men, especially in the last moment, and they can still run so fast. I want to give you two thumbs. So, please continue to perform in this game!"

"Jiu Zhao, if Li Weizhen scored the golden ball again in this game, will there be any prize?" The excited player saw that the head coach was in a good mood and couldn't help but speak out again to coax.

"Boy, I tasted the sweetness and thought I opened a bank?" Zhao Dayu said angrily. After scaring everyone, he quickly returned to his peaceful side. "But if I can score the golden ball again, my reward this time will have to be more generous. It is too vulgar to withdraw money."

"What kind of prize is that?" the player asked with interest.

"Keep confidential." Zhao Dayu smiled and kept her in a silence.

"Tsk." Everyone also scattered.
