"British Sky Sports! This is the Warsaw National Stadium. In the second semifinal just held, England team 2-2 in regular time and overtime, and then in the penalty shootout, eliminating Germany with a total score of 6-4, which is historic approaching the European Cup final!

"China Central TV, the following is the latest cautions for international football. Just five minutes ago, the England team led by Chinese coach Wan Sheng defeated the powerful German team and reached the final of the European Cup in a historic manner!"

"Japan National Comprehensive Channel, the strongest showdown in the European Cup, and England unexpectedly eliminated Germany!"

"For England, this is a great victory! It is a magical revenge against the semi-finals of the 1996 European Cup!"

"The Germans tasted the bitter fruit of failure. They were not prepared for the game and fell again in the semi-finals..."

"The England team is already thinking about the championship! Perhaps a month ago, many people were laughing at the goal of Wansheng, but now, they must face Wansheng and England, and they really want to participate in the championship competition!"

"Our goal is the champion! A passionate word that holds the hearts of all England fans, this night belongs to them..."

“…………”

When the match between England and Germany ended, sports media around the world reported on the results of the game in a short time.

Many media commentators and football commentators were surprised by the results.

England is a strong team, and everyone recognizes it, but if you want to be world-class, it is still Germany, Spain, Italy and other teams. England has always performed poorly in international competitions. Not to mention entering the finals, it is not easy to enter the quarterfinals.

But in the end, England eliminated Germany. What is particularly surprising is that England eliminated Germany in a penalty shootout.

This is surprising!

The German team has an unshakable strong position in the penalty shootout, and each of their opponents will strive for a victory in 90 minutes. Otherwise, in the penalty shootout, the hope of winning is too small.

So England goalkeeper Joe Hart became the most sought-after player.

In the past few decades, Germany has only had two goals in the penalty shootouts in the past seven major competitions.

That's the number that has been added together for decades.

In this game, the German team's penalty kick was saved by two, tying their combined decades. It is conceivable that Joe Hart, who performed well, was sought after.

"Before the game started, I knew Joe would definitely perform well."

"Before training for penalty kicks, Joe's reaction was very fast and even incredible. I was thinking that we wouldn't be afraid of penalty kicks no matter whether we played against Italy or Germany."

"I think we performed well, we scored 4 in 5 goals, which was the best penalty shootout."

“…”

The English player said excitedly during an interview.

It must be a sleepless night for England fans, but for England, they were excited but had no time to celebrate because the finals were only two days apart, so they did not have a night of celebration.

After the game, Wan Sheng and a group of players returned to the hotel to pack their things, and then took a plane to Dynamo Kiev to prepare for the finals. The FA officials had already booked a hotel for the team, and after the team arrived, they went directly to the hotel to rest.

The next morning, the whole team trained on the arranged stadium.

Now that we have reached the last step, we will be the champion after taking this step. Wan Sheng and the entire team want to continue moving forward.

They also received a lot of attention.

When England and Spain competed for the finals, almost most national media supported England. One, England looked "weaker", and the other, Spain had reached the stage of "boycott". They took away the 2008 European Cup and the 2010 World Cup. If Spain took away this European Cup, they would dominate the world football.

This is not something any football powerhouse is willing to see.

So many other countries, such as Italy, Portugal and Germany, which had just been defeated by England, began to give advice for the England team, hoping that England could "continue to create miracles" to defeat Spain and win the championship.

European public opinion is beneficial to the English team, but the game still depends on itself. Wan Sheng reminds everyone to prepare for the game with the most serious attitude.

"Now it has reached the most critical moment! We have worked hard for a month to make this game! We cannot relax at all. We only have two days. We must adjust our state and cultivate our spirits within these two days to welcome the final battle in the best condition!"

Wan Sheng is actually a little worried about the players' mentality.

Many people are, the more critical the moment they reach, the more likely they are to lose their chains. Just like English players, many of them don’t even have plans to go after the group stage. Many people think that the team has completed the task if they can enter the quarterfinals. As for the championship, it is not practical at all.

If the team can get to this point, some players are prone to relaxing their mindsets.

They may feel that their results in entering the finals are already good. Even if they win the runner-up, they have created English football history. Some players from small clubs will think so, and the same is true for all the big-name stars in England.

Some players will become nervous, and the more they play, the more nervous they will be.

But whether it is a relaxed or nervous state, it is a bad mental state and may have an impact on the performance of the game.

Wan Sheng must adjust the player's mentality.

This job is definitely not enough for himself. He found assistant coach Gary Neville, Morris, Gerrard and other players with good mentality, and asked them to adjust the minds of everyone in the team.

Wan Sheng did not forget the FA.

The FA is very concerned about England's European Cup. They are eager to achieve good results. This is not only an honor, but also a higher support rate among English fans in England and at the same time proves their success in their work.

The purpose of Wansheng finding the FA is to let the FA use "money" to motivate the team, and large bonuses are definitely indispensable.

FA Vice Chairman York also announced to everyone, "As long as the team can win the championship, the English Football Team will give each of the team a bonus of 200,000 pounds on the basis of the established bonus!"

This is a heavyweight bonus.

Each person has £200,000, and all of them add up to £5 million, which is definitely a huge deal. Some young players in the team, such as Villebeck, have only received a weekly salary of £40,000 in the club, and £200,000 is equivalent to a 5-week salary.

When York finished speaking, everyone applauded enthusiastically, and the bonus was very attractive to everyone.

The two-day game interval is very precious.

Wansheng asked the team to conduct a morning of recovery training and began some small routine training in the afternoon.

The next day, the game seemed to be approaching. If you want to do some systematic training, you have no time at all. Wan Sheng simply let the whole team conduct defensive training, mainly two points - defensive running and offside.

Defensive running is a very systematic training. England has done a lot before. I just got to know it the day before the game. The main thing is to let the back line players know when to create offside.

This is crucial in the match against Spain.

The Spanish team is completely "half Barcelona". Their style is the same as Barcelona. The forward straight pass and over-top are the main offensive methods. If you want to defend against such a ball, you must be good at using "offside".

There is not much training time in a day, but it has a "collaborative effect". It is enough to just let everyone know when to "construct offside".

At the end of the final training, Wan Sheng gathered all the players and said seriously, "This is our last day of training. Tomorrow is the final. Whether you win or not, it will be the last time I and you will cooperate with you!"

"My contract with the team is temporary and I will definitely not continue to coach. The entire coaching process is only one month. During this month, I feel very good and have a high evaluation of you. I think each of you is very outstanding..."

This is the first time Wan Sheng publicly praised a player.

Many players were very happy, but they were still a little reluctant to leave when they thought Wan Sheng was about to leave. Even Rooney, Ashley Cole and others were not very good at Wan Sheng at the beginning. No matter what, the coaching ability of the Chinese people in front of them is certain. He was able to lead the team to victory, unlike other coaches, who said it was good, but in the end they still lost again and again. The feeling of failure was heartbreaking.

"This is not a message before leaving. I don't need to say those things, because I am still in Europe. Maybe you will meet me, in the club and in the national team, maybe. Now I am your coach and can be friends in the future, but the important thing is that we have not reached the end yet! Tomorrow is the end. I think whether the team can win the championship is much more important to you than me!"

"I dare say that my championships are enough, a European Cup? I don't care, yes, I don't care, I have to coach for ten years, twenty years, or even longer, and any championship can be won. But you are different, how long will your career be? How many opportunities are there to participate in the European Cup final? I can be sure that only this time, I missed it, and I want to wait for the next time..."

"hehe……"

Wan Sheng did not hide the ridicule on his face, but no one was dissatisfied with it. In the past few decades, all English players have not played in the European Cup finals. They are already on the road to creating history. As Wan Sheng said, many players may retire next time. Even young players want to lead the team to the European Cup finals, the journey is too difficult. If they change coaches, they are not sure to achieve good results.

"So, this is the only chance!"

"But you should all know what the outside world thinks. Many people want us to win, but I think this means that our strength is not good and not favored by the outside world, because most people will still subconsciously support the weak, and we are the weak!"

"Do you want to be a weak person?"

"If we lose the game, we are the runner-up. Indeed, we have created the history of the team, but we are still weak. It is still difficult to raise our heads in front of those Spaniards!"

Looking at everyone's expressions, Wan Sheng knew that his words had worked, "I believe that none of you are willing to be weak, so we have no choice. This decisive battle can only be won, not defeated, do you understand!"
Chapter completed!
