Chapter 37 Questions
When he returned to the hotel, Zheng Zhi found that most of his teammates had not returned yet, not even Zhao Junzhe.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, Zhao Junzhe tiptoed back to the room.
I happened to be back on time before the team checked the rounds...
Zhao Junzhe didn't say anything to Zheng Zhiduo. He seemed very tired and fell asleep shortly after lying on the bed.
The next morning, the National Olympic Team played a confrontation match, but the effect was not good. Neither the main player nor the substitute seemed to be excited, and the players ran a little heavy.
Zhu Guanghu stood beside Horton and analyzed through an interpretation, "The weather in Vietnam is too humid and hot, so everyone can't be excited. In the day after tomorrow, physical fitness may be a problem."
“A lot of people are not in the state.”
"But Zheng Zhi is an exception, he plays easily."
"The physical fitness of Korean players has always been very good, and I suggest that Lee Eun and Zheng Zhi partner more safely."
Horton nodded and agreed to Zhu Guanghu's analysis.
However, it is hard to say whether these guys cannot perform because of the weather.
At least Zheng Zhi didn't think so. He always felt that they had done something bad yesterday. They all looked like they carried 20 kilograms of weight on their backs, fighting against weak people. But it was hard to say that they didn't see it with their own eyes.
Li Yin was there yesterday when he finished his meal. He was just surprised why Zhao Junzhe did not come back...
"Where are the two sides? Let Xu Yunlong, who has a balanced offense and defense, hit the right side, and Huang Yong hit the left side?"
Regarding the level of understanding of the lineup, Horton is definitely not as good as Zhu Guanghu now. Horton only knows about it for a month, while Zhu Guanghu has been several years. Horton also respects Zhu Guanghu quite well, and it is not as rumored by the outside world that Horton covers the sky with one hand.
Moreover, Zhu Guanghu did not favoritism, but only determined the players according to the players' status and tactical requirements. Players like Xu Yunlong can consider it, which is enough to show that he is not selfish.

Another day, the state of the National Olympic Team finally recovered a lot, and it seemed to be a little adapted to the stuffy weather here.
The main lineup of the National Olympic Team has also been confirmed, which is similar to what Zhu Guanghu said yesterday.
No one dared to go out for activities that night. Everyone went to bed early and waited quietly for the arrival of the next day's competition with the Korean U22.
On the day of the competition, the country had already analyzed the Korean U22 in advance. CCBV5 specially recorded a program for the National Olympic Games, focusing on the preparations for the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games throughout the process.
The famous host of the show Zhang Lu said: "Hehe, with the Korean u22 lineup, if the National Olympic Team performs normally, there will be no problem in winning them. It depends on how many goals they can score. Although their players also play in professional teams, most of them do not play as the main players. Most of their time is spent in college. It can be thought that in fact, they are just semi-professional players, unlike China, they are all full-professional."
"All their forwards combined can't compare to one Zhang Yuming."
It is conceivable that Zhang Yuming is now so popular in the country, he is still playing A-A.
"There is a question now. I heard that Horton and Zhu Guanghu both tried their best to make Zheng Zhi the team's midfield core. I think this is actually a time bomb. Because it is too risky to change the team's core in a few training games. You should know that Zheng Zhi has never played in a real game."
Zhang Lu is not optimistic about Zheng Zhi's debut, and his partner Liu Jianhong also echoed: "I think Director Zhang's analysis is very reasonable. It is better to be stable in the first game. Zheng Zhi is a newcomer after all, so it will be troublesome if he doesn't fight well."
"But Zhu Guanghu and Horton are still very thoughtful. After all, if Zheng Zhi plays out, it will be a good thing for the National Olympic Team. No matter what, let's wait and see."
Half an hour later, the National Olympic Team announced the list, and sure enough, Zheng Zhi's name was on the list.
Goalkeeper: Li Jian
Defenders: Sun Jihai, Li Weifeng, Zhang Ran, Tao Weng
Midfielder: Xu Yunlong, Zheng Zhi, Li Yin, Huang Yong
Forward: Zhang Yuming, Li Jinyu
After seeing this lineup, many Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV exclaimed.
"Ah, Sui Xiliang didn't."
"Zhao Junzhe didn't!"
"These two are nothing, they don't even have Zhang Xiaorui's? Oh my God, the British's brains are flooded? Don't use the best players in the country, Zheng Zhi and Xu Yunlong?"
"I think the goalkeeper should be up Liu Yunfei, although he is a little younger."
"The opponent is South Korea. Even if he is a college student team, he can't underestimate the enemy so much. Alas, this game is dangerous. Don't be fed two of them at the beginning, and the tragedy ends in the end."
"Conservative is always a common problem for us, so can't we play happily? We are always so cautious, it's not reliable at all."
Neither experts nor fans are optimistic about this lineup.
Of course, Zhu Guanghu understood a lot. Although it was impossible for him to hear such a sound, Zhu Guanghu still found Zheng Zhi alone and chatted for a while in the locker room.
"Xiao Zheng,"
"Don't create pressure on yourself in this game, just play the same as you usually do during training."
"I'm optimistic about you."
"Thank you, Director Zhu, I'm very calm." Zheng Zhi smiled faintly.
Looking at Zheng Zhi with a calm face, Zhu Guanghu didn't know what to say.
"That's good, that's good."
In the player channel, Zheng Zhi saw familiar faces, which were as young as him. Especially Park Ji-sung, his eyes were so small that he couldn't see them. What surprised Zheng Zhi was that Park Ji-sung actually appeared today and was wearing a No. 4 jersey.
At this time, Park Ji-sung was still a defender. I don’t know what coach Xu Ding-moe thought. Maybe he thought Park Ji-sung could only run? His nickname is Sanli Park.
Seeing Zheng Zhi staring at him, Park Ji-sung subconsciously turned his gaze away. At this time, he didn't have the feeling of being domineering...
Zheng Zhi looked at the young Li Dongguo again. Li Dongguo stood straight, like a handsome statue. He couldn't help but turn his head to Li Weifeng behind him and said, "Brother Feng,"
"This guy is a pretty dangerous person, you must keep an eye on him."
"Understand."
...
At the Hu Zhiming Stadium in Vietnam, there are not many fans who come to watch the game on site. After all, it is only a national Olympic level game, but there is no shortage of Chinese fans here.
At this time, the Vietnamese port had already opened, and many Chinese people came to Vietnam to do business. I heard that there were matches with the National Olympic Team, and more than 300 Chinese fans appeared in the stands.
Although there were not many people, they wore a unified red battle robe and had never known that they had gongs and drums. Under the leadership of the leader, they beated gongs and drums while shouting:
"Come on China!"
"Come on, the Chinese team!"
