Chapter 154 National Team Report
At 8 a.m. on December 22, Qin Tian was on a plane from Tokyo to Rotterdam alone in advance, preparing to report to the Denmark national team. He should have been a few days later to report to the national team, but just last night at the team's celebration dinner where the team won the Club World Cup, Qin Tian received a call from Michelle Lauderup, asking Qin Tian to report in advance.
But the first plane to Denmark was 2:00 p.m. Qin Tian had to fly to Rotterdam first and then return to Copenhagen from Rotterdam. As for the reason for the time change, it was because the list of the first warm-up match for the Denmark national team had been finalized, the Dutch national team, and the game time was also set on Christmas Day.[]
This is different from the original plan. After all, the players also want to spend a wonderful holiday with their families. However, the plan will never keep up with the changes. In order to cooperate with FIFA's public welfare plan "Caring for children in poor areas and allowing them to celebrate Christmas", using the Christmas public holiday, fans have time to go to the stadium to watch the game and can raise more donations to help those children. FIFA requires that all warm-up matches held this week be held in advance to Christmas day, and at the same time, all tickets received from the warm-up matches will be donated.
Qin Tian is obviously a kind child. No matter whether he can play in the game or not, he should participate in such meaningful things. Moreover, his colleagues also extended their helping hand in May, so now he should pay it back. No matter how much the amount he raised in the end, Qin Tian decided to add an additional 500,000 euros.
As soon as he got on the plane, Qin Tian put on a blindfold and forced himself to enter a rest state as soon as possible, but his brain was still extremely excited. What he recalled in his mind was the final of last night. He completed one pass and one shot again, helping the team win the South American Liberators Cup championship, 3:1.
This game is far from the huge sunshade difference seen in the score. It should be said that the opponent's tenacity exceeded the expectations of everyone in the team before the game. Originally, Schalke 04 had an absolute advantage in this final, whether in terms of pre-match preparations or in the first half of the game.
But the change started when Qin Tian completed his performance and the team took the lead 2:0.
In the 60th minute of the game, Sloka replaced Qin Tian with Rakitic, and was replaced by Kuranyi on the forward line. After all, the game still ended with 30 minutes, and the team had two goals in hand. No matter from any perspective, Quito University should be unable to make up for the situation.
Coach Sloka was obviously careless. After changing two players himself, not long after Quito University head coach Bosa also replaced two midfielders, Navia replaced Polanos, and Larea replaced Resco.
Just 5 minutes after the substitution was completed, Navia and Lareya made an amazing and clever cooperation. At that time, the opponent's central defender Campos stole Rakitic's pass, used his outstanding physical fitness to squeeze out Schalke's defensive player around him and poked Lareya.
Lareya's vision was very wide and there was no adjustment. She directly passed a long pass to find Navia on the other side. Navia was not tall, but her speed was indeed surprisingly fast, especially although she was carrying the ball under her feet, it did not affect him at all.
Navia used his speed to quickly open up a ball path, heading straight to Schalke's hinterland, and after the bottom, he made a cross. Boden and Pique, who were defending the middle, were both careless and did not notice that Lareya, who had already run from the midfield, broke out from behind the two. Facing Neuer, Lareya was very calm and skillfully shot, which tied the score to 2:1.
Of course, this is not what makes Schalke 04 nervous. Then the opponent took advantage of Schalke 04's panic that he was recovered by a goal and frequently created murderous intent in front of Schalke's goal. If Quito's forward was not too poor in seizing opportunities at the forward line, hitting the crossbar and post, otherwise if the opponent equalized the score, the result would be difficult to say.
Qin Tian on the sidelines was also quite worried. When his goal was broken, Qin Tian sat directly on the lawn in annoyance and stared at it. The camera next to him was also tracking the expression on Qin Tian’s face: Trouble, nervousness, concentration, Qin Tian off the field was also the focus of attention.
Fortunately, Slomba was not crazy this time, so he immediately sent veteran Kobe Yashvili to replace a striker and stabilized the passive situation on the field. This substitution had an immediate effect. Under Kobeya's leadership, the originally a bit frizzy and panicked defense line gradually calmed down.
After stabilizing, Schalke 04 immediately showed a sharp blade. Taking advantage of the opportunity of an opponent's attempted attack, he made a long pass in the backcourt to launch a counterattack and found Mene who had been wandering in the opponent's half. The French young player did not waste this once-in-a-lifetime single opportunity, calmly and calmly knocked on the opponent's door for the third time.
The 3:1 score has basically locked in the results of the game. In the last 5 minutes, although Quito still has a chance and continues to fight hard, it is obvious that there is too little time left for them.
There is only one champion, but a group of people crying.
Schalke 04 stood at the highest position in the World Club for the first time, and Qin Tian also won his first Club World Cup championship trophy.
During Christmas every year, the entire European football world is in a state of rest, alleviating the pressure and fatigue brought to everyone by the first half of the league, cup and even European competitions. However, the Premier League is still going on. Although many teams, players, experts and media have suggested that the Premier League should also have a winter break, it is obvious that the English football team is always hawkish.
So for Premier League players, Christmas is the most depressing holiday for them, especially this year. In addition to completing the club's game tasks, because in 2009, many European national teams will choose to use the winter break to organize national team players to gather, run-in, train, and arrange a series of warm-up matches. Therefore, Premier League players basically have no time to rest, such as the very depressed Bentner children's shoes.
On the afternoon of the 23rd, it was Qin Tian’s first time participating in the national team training camp, so he dared not be negligent. He dragged Bentner, who had never woken up, and went straight to the training base of Copenhagen Club. It was a little early and the other national team members had not come yet. How can I pass the next time? Bentner fell directly on the lawn and continued to sleep, while Qin Tian was alone in the running lap to warm up.
This time, Qin Tian is familiar with several players on the Danish national team training, such as the one who is now taking a break, as well as the little pervert Christian Eriksen, Mike Jensen, Lauderup brothers, Ag, and Daniel Worth, unfortunately lost, which made Qin Tian a little regretful. As for the other core players who were originally the national team, Qin Tian only heard of his name and was not up to par with his face.
After a while, a teammate who looked like an old player appeared. Qin Tian hit Ben Turner's butt with a ball, "Hey, wake up, where are the teammates?"
Bentner rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at it, "Where? Oh, that's Captain Thomason."
Jandal Thomasen, born in 1976, has played for the Danish national team for more than a hundred games. He is an efficient "opportunist" striker. Although his career is lukewarm, Thomas's efficiency in winning the championship is as high as his goals. In the 2002 World Cup, Thomas scored 4 goals in four games and won the World Cup Bronze Boot Award. So far, he has scored 51 goals for the national team and ranked second in the history total scorer list, only one goal away from his predecessor Paul Nelson's 52 goals.
Qin Tian was about to take Bentner forward to say hello to Thomason, and then three more players appeared. After Bentner's introduction, they were Romedal, Sorensen and Glenshare, who were all veterans.
Romedal was born in 1978 and is a player with outstanding foot ball skills and capable of playing on both sides. In 2007, he was elected as a Danish footballer in 2010.
Sorensen was born in 1976. He is the first goalkeeper of the Danish football "Post Schmeichel era". He has played nearly 90 times for the national team. He has always guarded the goal for the middle and lower-level teams for many years. He has developed a skill of high and low blocks. He is good at handling air balls, penalty kicks, quick response, good position, strong explosiveness, quick movements on the ground, and calm mind. His disadvantage is that he sometimes loses his hands when he saves the ball.
Glenshare was born in 1977 and had a sharp breakthrough on the wing and had certain shooting ability. The biggest feature is that he was extremely fast. It is said that in the early stages of his career, it is said that many track and field coaches advised him to change his career and practice sprinting.
Several seniors came quite early and did not put on airs because of their old qualifications. It can be seen that real professional players have high requirements for themselves every moment, which makes Qin Tian very admirable. Looking at the veterans who are still full of fighting spirit, Qin Tian understood that after they missed this year's European Cup, the 2010 South Africa World Cup may be the final masterpiece of several veterans.
Seeing the four people coming, Qin Tian and Bentner hurriedly ran over. The two boys were not qualified to show off.
"Hi, Yandal, Jespe, Thomas, Romedal", Bentner took the lead in greeting with respect in his tone.
"Haha, I thought we were here first. I didn't expect you two to come first. Are you unable to sleep? Are you excited?" Romedal smiled.
"You are Qin Tian, right? Welcome to join," Yandal Thomas extended his hand to Qin Tian.
"Hello, hello, I'm Qin Tian!" Qin Tian was shy for the first time, and he didn't know how to say hello to the other party for a while.
"Boy, I'm very coquettish in the Bundesliga," Sorensen hugged Qin Tian, "The little kids I've added are all your fans. I'll leave a few autographs later."
"What I care more about is your speed. Compare when you have time." Glenshare looked calm.
"Puff", Glenshare fell forward and slapped him. Romedal kicked him, "You still want to compete with Qin. I thought you were still 10 years ago, and you were overestimating your ability. Haha, Qin, I will fight to control the ball later."
Qin Tian was also shocked by the actions and actions of several people. It turned out that the eldest brother was like this in private.
"Okay, stop making trouble, start warming up," Thomason spoke, and the others quickly adjusted, "You two come together, we don't have much time."
Six people started running around the stadium on their own. Qin Tian also ran while chatting with Thomas beside him, because the positions they played were similar, both were aggressive frontcourts. Thomas knew that as long as Qin Tian continued to develop like this, he would definitely be the one who took over his position. So Thomas also had the idea of helping this junior and helped him integrate into the national team as soon as possible.
