Although Nigeria was established as the team's most likely opponent, before the start of the Group C game, the Chinese team's coaching team was still safely divided into several groups to collect intelligence:

Wang Peng went to the scene of the match between Nigeria and Poland, while Pan Jun was responsible for the live video of the match between Japan and Uruguay, and Lu Juren summarized and summarized it at his residence.

For the two games broadcast at the same time, Lu Juren, who was sitting in front of the TV, watched them by changing the channel. He was more clear about the situation of the team in which his competitors were in;

There was a faint expectation deep in his heart, although he knew that the Japanese would not have a high chance of losing this time.

After watching it a few times, the wonderful scenes of the Battle of Nebo quickly attracted him. After the first half, the Africans had a clear trend of laying the overall situation;

The Japanese's dangerous situation once again ignited his expectations, so he focused on watching the game between Japan and Uruguay in the second half.

As the end of the game approached, he could feel his heartbeat accelerating. When the referee finally decided that the end of the game without a goal, Lu Juren could clearly hear the sound of his heart pulsing, one step further from the preset scene in his heart;

He quickly changed the channel to confirm the result of another game. He was a little surprised when he saw Poland reversed Nigeria's score;

But the surprise was soon covered by excitement, and he felt a urge to shout deep in his heart: the 1/8 final battle against Japan is really an indescribable arrangement!

The depressed expressions of Japanese players were constantly played on the screen, but soon, the cheerful expressions resurfaced on each of them, and happily comforted the Uruguayans who were tragically eliminated;

The friendly actions of the players on both sides to exchange jerseys were not obvious at all, and Lu Juren understood the reason why the Japanese were in a better mood. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

At 8:30 pm, Wang Pan and his two went out to shoot the game video. After a simple meal, the coaching staff summarized their work, mainly explaining the relevant situation of the two games in the afternoon.

While playing the video of Nibo's game, Wang Peng explained with a smile: "According to the strategy we all planned in the morning, the information of this game is the focus, but now it seems that it is not that important. Now, I will briefly comment on this game and please criticize and correct me."

"I think the Polish team's tactics arranged in this game are very appropriate. It is aimed at Nigeria's characteristic of using the wing to cut into the inside line and firmly grasp the middle. Although the situation in the first half was relatively chaotic, it successfully reversed the disadvantage in the second half;"

"The secret to their success lies in the basis of stabilizing the middle lane to maximize the advantages of the combination of sides and middle lane. The smooth transfer of the ball has well eliminated the patience and will of Africans. For the current situation where our team is still swinging tactics in the middle lane and the wing lane, the Polish team's approach is worth learning from."

Then, Pan Jun commented on the game between Japan and Uruguay, playing specially edited game videos. He patiently explained: "The Japanese team's attack power is not weak. With the addition of Sho Ito, Takayuki Morimoto and Ji Umezaki, their front-court attack power is one level compared to the Japanese team in the Asian Youth Championship at the beginning of the year. In this game against Uruguay, the Japanese team is bound to win. The players' desire to perform on the field is very strong, and they have indeed created many scoring opportunities in the game;"

"The reason why the Japanese did not make any achievements in the whole game was that the simple style of play of Uruguay was indispensable. Faced with complex situations, simple is the most effective way to deal with it. Just like in this game, Uruguay, which lacks the smart and sharp main striker Suarez, relies on captain Cavani and central defender Caldasio."

"The tall Cavani is a standard stand-up center with average foot skills, but he handles the ball with a very neat shooting technique. He stops in the middle and completely nails the Japanese team's defense line. Cardasio is the team's frontcourt operation hub, either left or right, up or down, and the irregular passes make the opponent unable to understand his organizational ideas and completely revitalize the team's entire frontcourt. When the Japanese deliberately prevent his pass, he shot the goal, and the strong long shot made the Japanese feel a headache."

"The most confusing thing about the Japanese team is that the players who are defensive to the wing or behind them feed the single arrow Cavani, and gave Caldasio a chance to hit a cold arrow. The anxious Japanese have never found a countermeasure to deal with the Uruguayan move. After the core of the organization Kenji Oshima left the field, he was even more panicked and unable to end up accepting the helpless end of the draw."

After drinking a sip of water to moisten the throat, he continued to explain, "Dapeng just summarized the victory of the Polish team and used the 'border combination of side and middle'. These four words are also suitable for use on the Uruguayans. The mid-range pass-ball ball-snatch-middle shot-long shot behind him. Compared with those complex sports battles, the method is simple, but it is very effective. The scene of the Japanese being forced to jump over the wall is the best evidence. We have Uruguayans, and absorb their successful experience. I think we have the ability to do what they have not done!"

After the comments of the two games were completed, the coaching staff had a heated discussion. The team's improving atmosphere and favorable situation made the coaches feel very happy. The atmosphere of the discussion on the spot was also enthusiastic, and new ideas and new ideas continued to emerge.

Finally, head coach Lu Juren looked at the time and summarized the comments: "It's very good, the effect is very good. After all of our discussions, we have also collected a lot of insightful targeted opinions, and specific work will be agreed upon in the tactical meetings in the future. It's not too late, and the players have returned to the team. We will check the rounds and shops according to the division of labor. Let's end today's discussion. Dapeng and Apan, thank you for your hard work today."

On the morning of the 8th, the Chinese team held its first training class after the group stage, mainly focusing on pulling muscle groups, middle-range ball transfers, side wing follow-up, and coordinated defense.

After yesterday's day of rest, the effect was still quite obvious. The players were generally in good moods, with high enthusiasm and initiative in training, and the implementation effect of training has also been greatly improved compared to before. The dull atmosphere in the training field was wiped out.

Although after the players returned to the team last night, after watching the results of the game, I also learned about the team's opponent in the next game, based on the mental state shown by the players in training, the previous phenomenon of being timid before the fight did not occur;

This is a place worthy of praise for the Chinese team, which is about to face its old rival. Chinese football has ushered in the opportunity to justify itself.

Feeling the high fighting spirit of the entire team, Lu Juren was in a good mood. His frown brows were also relaxed in the training class. He sat down on the chair on the sidelines, and the notebook in his hand that specifically recorded the training data was not opened;

His eyes happily glanced at the players who were training seriously, and a hint of emotion arose in his heart: The Chinese team is like a drifting boat. The previous moment was a sudden encounter with dangerous beaches, and they were filled with dangers and were terrifying step by step. But after just a moment, the dangerous beaches were gone, and the situation in front of him suddenly became clear, with a bit of "the light boat has passed thousands of mountains", and the ups and downs of life experiences are nothing more than this.

Still in the storm, someone next to him took a photo of him: "Old Lu, I'm in a good mood!"

When he came back to his senses, he found that it was Wang Peng, and replied with a smile: "No worries, be happy."

"That's right, not only did we exceed the task of this competition, but judging from the current situation, we are also likely to surpass the previous top 16 results. The situation is very good, haha!" Wang Peng was in a good mood.

Lu Juren smiled, looked at him, and suddenly asked, "Dapeng, are you really not afraid of the Japanese team? We have personally experienced their powerful strength."

This question was a bit abrupt, but Wang Peng understood the intention of his question and answered firmly: "I have never been afraid of little Japan. I was not afraid before, and I am even less afraid now! This time, I must let these Japanese devils understand that Great China is Great China, and small Japan is small Japan. Being small must respect the great truth!"

Lu Juren nodded: "Well, my thoughts are the same as you, so I also hope that their mental state is really as firm and fearless as shown on the surface."

Wang Peng laughed: "Haha, Lao Lu, even if you don't mobilize to fight Japan, these kids will do their best to do it. Just be calm!"

After a moment of pause, "After that's it, do you have any ideas for the arrangement of the team in this game? I think Apan's summary last night is very good. Uruguay has Cavani, and we have now have horse resistance. In terms of organizing the ball, Zhu Liye has done a good job in these games, and Zhang Chang, who returned to the team, is not inferior. As for the heavy gunner, Li Xudong can also consider arranging his appearance."

After thinking deeply for a moment, Lu Juren replied: "These two games have indeed given us a lot of useful thinking. The middle lane has always been our habitual routine, and the side lane that has been practicing during this period, I think that after the staff is fully equipped, the team's performance should not be too bad. As for Li Xudong, Guan Jian and others, I want to take this opportunity to inspire them. The team cannot be in chaos anymore, and must be united!"

Wang Peng agreed: "Yes, I support your idea. I always feel that most of the strength of our team is not fully demonstrated. Those comfortable people have to stimulate them to do their best and make greater progress! Lao Lu, it seems that the last fight incident touched you. I am becoming more and more confident in you and the team. Come on!"

"Well, work hard together!" Lu Juren also became full of confidence.

After the morning training, all Chinese teams returned to their residence, Caesar Palace, and had a short rest after the meal;
Chapter completed!
