Chapter 321 The only chance
The game lasted for more than 20 minutes and the Spanish team scored.
Judging from previous games, the Spanish team was completely in control of the situation. England did not even shoot once, and the number of goals was pitifully few. Most of the time, football was under the control of Spain.
Some media and fans even think that it is luck that England only conceded one goal!
After David Silva finished the goal, he raised his arms and ran towards the fan stand. When he ran to the England coaching seat, he did not forget to look at Wan Sheng and smiled and nodded. If other irrelevant players made this move after the goal, it would definitely be considered a provocation. But everyone knows that Silva is greeting Wan Sheng, or he just hopes that his performance will be recognized by his former mentor.
Wan Sheng smiled and nodded in response.
The goal belonged to the Spanish team. Spanish players rushed up one by one and hugged David Silva, and they were very excited about the lead.
The Spanish players felt in good shape. From the beginning of the game to now, the opponent's defense and blocking were very strong, but they still played a wonderful offensive, cooperated, and relied on David Silva's goal to get a lead in the score.
With one goal, the game becomes better. Will the next goal be far away?
Some players are starting to look forward to it.
The Spanish reporters in the media table were happy. Before the final, the whole world seemed to not want Spain to win. Various voices supporting the England team sounded, accompanied by various analysis, such as "Wansheng led the team to never lose the final", "England is no longer the past", and "England is a Morris, who is over half of the Spanish team", and such news are everywhere, just like Spain is about to lose, and only they are determined that Spain can win the game.
Sure enough!
The competition has only been going on for more than 20 minutes, and the trophy belonging has basically lost its suspense.
This England is no match!
While analyzing the game, other media also performed very pessimistic. The German commentator said, "Maybe Wan Sheng is about to usher in his coaching career and lose the first final!"
The media that were hostile to Wansheng were happy.
They hope that England will lose a little worse, which means that Wan Sheng will lose awful lot, and then they will have something to say.
Many cameras point to the England coaching seat.
The media wanted to see what this young Chinese was doing, would he be disappointed with the game, would he notice the huge gap between the two sides and stop making meaningless struggles? Unfortunately, they saw a cold face.
Wan Sheng watched the game extremely solemnly.
After more than twenty minutes, Wan Sheng had discovered the problem. England played so passively, because of tactical reasons, they focused more on defense, and more importantly, the team did not play at all. Many players on the court were too nervous. They were participating in the international finals for the first time and were eager to win the victory. Their mentality affected their condition and their overall performance was much worse.
Wan Sheng is prepared for the team's mentality imbalance. The England team has not had many opportunities to experience in the battle. It is understandable that the players are nervous, but it does not mean that if this continues, the team must quickly find its state.
If Spain scores another goal, the chance is very slim!
The game on the court has started again.
Spanish coach Boske held his chin with one hand and watched the game casually. He seemed to know that he was not very worried about the game. Wan Sheng's performance was just the opposite. He still stood on the sidelines, shouting all kinds of noises to remind the players to pay attention to defense seriously.
The media didn't know what Wan Sheng was calling, but his actions echoed the game and could still see something.
The English media began to get nervous.
"Now that England is behind the score, it's time to start a counterattack! Only by tying the score can you win, but Wansheng is still emphasizing defense!"
"He's very serious about defense, but I don't know when he's become so conservative?"
"England obviously wants to defend the first half, and they have no intention of strengthening the attack."
“…………”
Wan Sheng ignored the media's evaluation. Now the team should defend, so he must do that, and his approach soon became effective.
England were not mentally prepared to concede the ball. After the game started again, they were at a loss. Wan Sheng's shouting was the best instruction. They found their backbone again and continued to play according to the tactics.
Some players also became trusting Wan Sheng, and they all thought, "The coach is not someone who is willing to admit defeat. We just need to play normally. The coach will definitely find a way!"
Wan Sheng's figure has become a characteristic landscape of the stadium.
In the middle of the fierce game, several cameras kept pointing to the past. Many commentators and media kept mentioning Wan Sheng when commenting. He was the focus of the game, and he was even more "focused" than the players who performed well on the court.
Most of the media's comments about Wan Sheng were, "Wan Sheng was a little anxious."
"The England team is a dilemma after one goal behind. They play very conservatively. If they let go, the defense will definitely become a problem."
"This is the toughest game in England! They played against Germany in the previous semi-finals, and they performed very well."
Wansheng hasn't been worried like this for a long time.
When coaching Atletico Madrid, even when he met strong teams such as Barcelona, Real Madrid, AC Milan, etc., he performed very calmly, as if everything was planned and he didn't need to worry about the game at all.
Atletico Madrid has strong strength and can always defeat powerful opponents. It is normal for Wan Sheng to perform like this.
England is a lot short of it.
Wan Sheng had to take the oldest method to intensify the morale of the players on the court and make them more cautious and calm. His voice became hoarse until he saw the team's defense gradually stabilized before he returned to the coach's seat.
Under Wan Sheng's continuous command, the players on the England court knew what to do. They were not used to Spain's rhythm change and targeted offensives before, and were really stunned by the opponent. Fortunately, they are gradually adapting to the game.
They focused on their energy on defense and did not think about how to counterattack. England's defense was much more stable, leaving Spain with no way to take advantage of it.
After the Spanish team scored the goal, the pace also adjusted to a certain extent. The offensive slowed down slightly. It was impossible for them to keep a fast offensive all the time, otherwise they would have to consume a lot of physical energy in advance, which would be completely worth the effort.
England finally took the opportunity to make a comeback.
Although it did not threaten the Spanish goal, there were at least several good counterattacks and two quick counterattacks.
But that's all.
In the following period of the first half, England only shot twice, and did not threaten the Spanish goal either. Spanish goalkeeper Casillas also became the easiest person on the field. He was like a spectator watching the game, and he could watch the game at close range. The Spanish commentator introduced Casillas' state. Casillas appeared on the TV screen. He took off his gloves and used his hands to pick his ears. He was not worried about the game at all. In the end, he yawned for a long time.
"Look! Cassi! He is so leisurely. As a goalkeeper in Spain, he hardly needs to put in any effort in this game. England cannot threaten the Spanish goal. So far, he has not made a decent save. Perhaps he will be the worst performer in Spain..."
This is a complete joke about England.
Many Spanish fans laughed, and the Spanish commentator said some praise, but in the first half, England did not pose much threat to the Spanish goal. Spain had an absolute advantage and scored a goal, and the score also showed the comparison of the performance of both sides.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the scoreboard was still ‘1:0’.
Spain leads one goal.
England returned to the locker room with a behind score. Everyone's face was very serious. It was the first time they played so passively until now.
Wansheng was the first to return to the locker room.
The team's situation was not optimistic when he was one goal behind in the first half. Wan Sheng was still satisfied with the team's performance in the second half. That was the game he was looking forward to. England didn't need too much offense, just play well in defense and find opportunities, but falling behind by one goal still weighed on everyone's heart, and Wan Sheng was no exception.
This kind of game is one goal behind, and the outcome can often be decided.
The score put the team in a passive situation, and they had to score goals in the second half. Wan Sheng had some confidence in this. In the second half of the first half, many players recovered their form, but the Spanish team's offense was too fierce and the team didn't have time to make adjustments.
As long as you play at a normal pace, Wansheng believes that the team will perform much better.
The players returned to the locker room one by one. They were a little quick, and they all lowered their heads and walked forward.
After everyone returned, the atmosphere in the locker room also seemed very depressing.
In fact, the score is one aspect. Some players still think that Wan Sheng will be dissatisfied with the game. Wan Sheng arranged a lot before the game, but they did not perform in the game. They always wanted to beat Spain. Their eagerness to win led to a sharp turn for the team's performance. They knew that it was not all about the gap in strength, and a big aspect was attributed to the issue of performance.
In the entire team, not just one player, most players are like this.
Even Morris did not perform well in the first half. The entire team was suppressed by Spain. Every time they thought of the passiveness in the past 45 minutes, they felt ashamed and worried that if the game ended like this, they would lose the championship trophy!
This may be the only chance!
