"Today's training is over..."

Before Eames could finish his words, Chu Zhongtian and Russell stood up from the crowd very consciously. The teammates laughed at their performances.

"It seems that you are all very conscious. Then I won't talk nonsense. Today's content is..."

※※※

"Russell and Chu."

No teammates laughed anymore. After watching the head coach tortured the two of them in different ways several times, they put their heart in mind. They might have some sympathy for these two teammates who don’t know how they offended the boss’s teammates.

"Russell and Chu."

After the training, the teammates all walked off the court, rushed to change clothes, or went home directly. Fewer and fewer people stayed to watch the fun.

※※※

"Russell and Chu."

Among his teammates, only Borger stayed automatically. If he left, no one would help Russell get in the car. Every time he did the punishment project he was not good at, he was so tired that he wanted to fall asleep immediately. If he left him alone here, he would be really worried. As for Chu, if he was willing to help Russell kindly, things would not have gone like this - in his heart, he still thought that all this was caused by Chu Zhongtian.

※※※

"Russell and Chu."

Whether it was content that was unfavorable to Chu Zhongtian or content that was unfavorable to Russell, there was no sign of too much joy, anger, sorrow and happiness on both of them. They seemed to be tortured by this harsh punishment. Just leave the list, and then listen to Eames telling what the punishment is today, nodding to show that he understood and then do what he did.

Days have passed day by day. During this period, the World Cup is in full swing. The Chinese team, which has attracted much attention in China, did not really create miracles. They lost all three group matches and did not score a goal. Although there were some highlights, it was really dim. The saying "The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment" is really suitable for Chinese fans. The Chinese team lost all three games and failed to score a goal at home, and it was immediately called a "shaming failure", which attracted people across the country to condemn it.

But they didn't think about it. Isn't it normal for the Chinese team that entered the World Cup finals for the first time to lose three group matches? If you want to talk about shame, the defending champion France has the best scorer in the three major leagues of the Premier League, Serie A and Ligue 1, but failed to score a goal in the group stage of this World Cup and was eliminated early. That's a shame. The Chinese team still has a long way to go if they want to qualify for "stigmatized failure".

The Korean team, which scared the Chinese team for more than ten years, entered the World Cup for the first time in the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland. At that time, the South Korean team lost all two group matches, conceded sixteen goals in two games, and did not score a single goal. This performance was much worse than that of the Chinese team, but they did not see them shouting at the domestic market that this was a "stigmatizing failure."

What is "shaming failure"? When can this word be used? Only when the Chinese team is very strong and is considered a favorite to win the championship, but loses in three games in the group stage, fails to score a goal, and returns home in advance. Otherwise, other situations are just reactions from the real level of the Chinese team. Some people think that this result is a shame, but it is just because they set a very high dream for themselves in their hearts. As a result, the cruel reality shines into the dream, which makes them unable to accept it and can only shout "shaming!"

What's so shameful? It's good to enter the World Cup finals, what else should I expect? I originally came in and visited, felt the atmosphere, and used my body to experience what the world's highest-level football competition is like. This is considered completing the historical task. As for the "three-one" project of "scoring a goal, getting a point, and winning a game", it's better to keep your descendants to slowly implement it.

It took a full thirty-two years for the South Korean team to reach the World Cup finals for the first time to score a point and a goal in the World Cup, and it only achieved it in the 1986 World Cup in Mexico.

The Chinese team is still early. You can’t think that the Chinese team should also have good results in football just because Chinese sports won gold medals in the Olympics. This idea is something that only those who don’t understand football will have. But it’s a pity that the people who don’t understand the most are the heads of the Football Association and the General Administration of Sports…

A few days later, the "strongest in history" England team also returned home. This time they were sent back was the Brazil team that Chu Zhongtian liked. For this reason, Xilin and Sullivan ignored Chu Zhongtian with a smile on their faces for several days. Chu Zhongtian was of course happy. Ronaldinho's performance was really great, especially the free kick, which was simply amazing. Ximan had no temper and could only cry.

Brazil's 3r is intimidating the world, as well as Robert Carlos and Kafu, the dual-scope combination plus 3r is simply the sharpest attack combination in the world.

He also learned something from that game. Scolari's Brazil team found a balance between utilitarian and artistically in this World Cup. He allowed Robert Carlos and Cafu to fly together with the wings and become a wing forward from the full-back, but he never gave up on setting up two defensive midfielders in the midfield. This setting not only ensured that Carlos and Cafu, the two buddies, can attack freely with the 3r in front, without exposing the three central defenders behind him to the strong vitality of the opponent.

Unexpectedly, Emerson was injured and quit before the World Cup, which gave Gilberto Silva and Kleberson such a good opportunity. These two defensive midfielders were unknown before this World Cup, and compared with the stars in Brazil, they were like simple blue-collar workers. But if they were not fighting tirelessly in the backcourt, how could the stars in the frontcourt attack the opponent's positions unscrupulously without wasting physical strength in the defense again and again?

For Chu Zhongtian, Gilberto Silva and Kleberson are his role models on the field. In the game, his task is to protect the defense line and allow teammates in the frontcourt to attack with peace of mind. Chu Zhongtian believes that as long as he can do this day, he will definitely have his own place in the AFC Wimbledon formation. Chu Zhongtian is still a little confident in his defensive ability.

The first goal of Brazil's team to England was that the Brazilian players actively fought on the sideline, using a seemingly dangerous sliding tackle to force Beckham, who had just recovered from his foot injury, to jump up and lose possession, thus launching a counterattack in one breath. Ronaldinho dribbled the ball from the middle, shook Ashley Cole away with a fake move of bicycles, and then passed to Rivaldo, who was ambushing the side, and finally the latter scored the football into the far corner of the goal.

The role of midfield defense is fully reflected in this goal.

England was eliminated, and the atmosphere of the World Cup in the UK suddenly faded a lot. The people of the British Empire didn't care much about how the teams in other countries in the world performed. However, the German team entered the finals and still made many people unhappy. In normal training, Chu Zhongtian could always hear his teammates curse the German team losing the game. Unfortunately, the German team, in poor condition, stumbled all the way to the finals, which made them both disappointed and unhappy.

The final result was that the Brazilian team supported by Chu Zhongtian won the championship. The second goal scored by Ronaldo in the final was that Kleberson, a pure defensive midfielder, suddenly dribbled the ball in the back, disrupting the German team's defensive system. For a moment, no German player went up to defend him. He allowed him to break through to the penalty area line calmly, and then passed the football to Ronaldo in the middle. Rivaldo understood it and cleverly leaked. Ronaldo directly pushed the ball, and the football brushed the post and Kahn's fingertips and rolled into the goal.

The defensive midfielder can not only defend, but also participate in the offense, but also plays a final role. As Chu Zhongtian in the same position, he is naturally very excited, but unfortunately his ability in offense is almost zero...

The result of Brazil's victory over Germany also allowed Chu Zhongtian to "regain" the friendship between Shilin and Sullivan. They were very happy that Brazil could help England teach Germany a lesson, and that England would eventually lose to the champion, which was not embarrassing.

The reason why the proud and arrogant Englishman bowed his head is not impossible if he is not a champion. Losing to the champion also means that it is not our England team that is not strong enough, but that the opponent is the true emperor... He died gloriously by being killed by the real champion.

The World Cup ended like this, and it was a good day to settle accounts after the autumn in China. In the UK, AFC Wimbledon, where Chu Zhongtian is located, got their first chance to play.

On July 10, with Sutton United (sutton_united), a friendly match at the opponent's home court.
