Chapter 130 The battle of focus, attention from all over the world!
French capital, Paris.
After watching the video of Spain's game against Finland, France's coach Didier Deschamps fell into deep thought.
The reference value of this game is not great. It can be seen that Spain has not exerted much strength, and Finland has been unable to hold it.
But he can be sure that when facing the French team away, Spain will never show mercy.
This is not only because the two teams are the biggest competitors in the group stage, but also because of the grievances and grievances between the two teams in the past.
The history of the Spanish team is not as brilliant as that of the French team. If they want to create their own dynasty, the best way is to completely defeat the old overlords like France to prove their strength.
The French certainly don't want to let the opponent's trick succeed, they cannot accept the result of losing at home.
Because this is directly related to the qualifying quota of the group!
In each group of the world preliminaries, only the first in the group can directly advance, and the second in the remaining nine groups will select eight to participate in the play-offs.
Win the play-offs to qualify for the World Cup!
The French team is currently three points behind Spain. If they cannot win this game, they will lose the initiative to compete for the first place in the group.
There is even only a theoretical group first chance.
With Spain's steady ability to abuse food, it is difficult to expect those stinky fish and rotten shrimps in the group to cause them trouble.
If Spain wins the next game, even if the French team wins all the next games, they can only get second in the group and go to the play-offs.
If the French team loses this game, there will be no hope for the first place in the group. They can only get points from other underdogs as much as possible, and pray that they will draw a weaker opponent in the play-offs.
However, even weaker opponents are not very safe.
There are many examples of such overturns in history. A certain Italian team in later generations who won the European Cup but failed to enter the World Cup said it was very embarrassing!
The dignified European champion can't even enter the World Cup, where can he justify it?
Therefore, the French team can only accept victory in this game, not even a draw.
However, how can we win the World Cup and European Cup double champion Spain?
Deschamps was only worried about pulling his hair. Fortunately, his hairline was relatively safe. Otherwise, according to his hair pulling method, it would not take long for it to be almost the same as Bosque's hairline.
After thinking for a long time, Deschamps finally decided to give it a go and put Paul Pogba, a young player he recruited from Juventus, into the starting list for this game.
He was fed up with the French team's group of midfielders who had no creativity at all, leaving the team empty with a top-level striker lineup, but no one could feed them shells.
Although Pogba is young and has just turned 20 years old, his skills and awareness are not comparable to those rough guys.
Although Pogba is a black player, tall and muscular, he looks like a typical black and tough player.
But don't be deceived by his appearance, this kid is in the technical genre, not in the physical genre.
Pogba's left and right feet are balanced, both feet can shoot and pass perfectly, there is no reverse foot, and he also has a delicate footwork that allows him to complete high-quality passes and shots.
In addition, his excellent physical fitness endowed him with strong defensive ability and abundant physical fitness, making him a very versatile midfielder.
His only disadvantage at present probably lies in his age.
Pogba is too young and still lacks a lot of game experience, especially the experience of major competitions.
This is why Deschamps didn't dare to use him as the main force before.
But when he thought that there was also a young player in the Spanish team, he couldn't help but want to try it.
Spain's NO.30 is younger than Pogba. If he can, why can't Pogba?
……
On March 3, the Spanish national team arrived in Paris, the French capital, by plane.
French fans and the media were full of vigilance about the arrival of the Armada. They gathered near the airport, held up the support signs of the French team, and demonstrated to the Spanish team, telling them that this is the territory of the Gallic Rooster, and the Spaniards will not be allowed to be presumptuous.
However, the Spanish players didn't care about this, and they revealed the confidence and calmness of a strong man.
This pissed off the French, who thought the Spaniards were too pretentious.
"Damn the Spaniard, wait to lose at the Stade de France tomorrow!"
"What shit Armada, tomorrow is your end!"
……
Before the game started, the fans of the two countries began to scold them on the Internet.
Spanish fans ridiculed France as a down-and-out aristocrat. They have gone from bad to worse since they won the World Cup in 1998. They didn't even qualify for the group in the last World Cup.
With such a team, how can it be compared with the double champion of the World Cup and European Cup?
Not to be outdone, the French fans mocked the Spaniard for playing hypnotic football and pussy football.
They believed that under the impact of the French players, the Spanish team would surely be shattered into pieces.
This is how it is blown, but the handicap announced by the bookmaker before the game is not very optimistic about the French team.
Gambling companies on the European side gave the result of the visiting team's hemisphere, and they are cautiously optimistic about Spain.
On the Asian side, the gaming companies were more aggressive, directly giving the result of a handicap for the visiting team, obviously thinking that Spain would win the away game.
The fans of the French team are very unconvinced:
"Fuck, rubbish spinach, what do they know about football?
Brothers, listen to me this wave, buy the French team and you're done, take advantage of the high odds, buy early and get rich early! "
A blogger who supports the French team called on fans of the French team to buy their own team to win.
However, there were not many French fans who responded to his call. Instead, a group of Spanish fans came to inquire and started team building in his comment area:
"I'm a Spaniard, and I prove that the Spanish team is rubbish and will definitely not be able to beat the French team!"
"That's right, the Spanish midfielders are all weak. How can they compare with the African team, no, what can they compare with the French team? The French team only needs to show their black and tough characteristics. The French team is stable in this game win!"
"Well said, I'm a Spaniard, and I've used my actions to prove that I'm optimistic about the French team. Look, this is the evidence that I bet on the French team!"
A Spanish fan posted a screenshot of his betting.
But careful fans discovered that this guy bought the French team to lose.
Now, fans from other countries watching the excitement couldn't stand it anymore.
"Fans of the French team, don't be fooled. The Spaniards are tricking you into placing bets to increase the amount of the prize pool so that they can win more prize money!"
A German fan analyzed rationally and objectively.
Ordinary people are not as professional as gambling companies. The data analysis experts of other gambling companies combined the status of the two teams and the strength of the players to make such an analysis and judgment. There must be their reasons.
You are an ordinary fan, why use your hobby to challenge the opponent's professional job?
But not long after his comment was sent out, it sank because of too many criticisms.
"Damn, someone has exposed our conspiracy, brothers, hurry up and step on him, don't let the French see it!"
The united Spanish fans stepped on their feet, and did not let this German guy ruin their good chance of making a fortune.
……
The media's extensive reports, the team's severe qualifying situation, and powerful opponents, plus many people on the Internet called on French fans to go to the scene to support their team.
The combination of these factors has inspired the patriotic enthusiasm of the French.
Therefore, those who can buy tickets go to the scene to cheer.
Those who didn't buy a ticket ran to the nearby bar or even the square outside the stadium for key games. The last time they had to watch the TV at home and cheer on the TV screen.
The Stade de France, which can accommodate [-] spectators, is full of seats on the day of the match.
Usually those French fans who are not very supportive of their national team because of the team's skin color, unexpectedly all dispatched this time and ran to the scene to watch the game.
This game is very critical and very interesting, and they naturally don't want to miss such a game.
Of course, it would be even better if you can see the team you support win the game.
The game between France and Spain will be played at 3 o'clock in the evening on March 26. Before that, the other games in this round of qualifiers have almost ended.
In the just-concluded Group F group match, Portugal led by Ronaldo defeated Azerbaijan with a score of 2:0 and scored three points, and the qualifying situation is very good.
After the game ended, the Portuguese team returned to the hotel. When they passed by the hotel lobby, they happened to see the match between Spain and France being broadcast live on TV.
Most of the Portuguese players just glanced at it casually, didn't care much, and were going to return to their rooms to rest.
But when Ronaldo saw the player wearing the No. 30 jersey, his footsteps paused.
It's him! ?
He remembered that this was the person who had met him at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, and the supernova who Florentino had hinted to him that he wanted to be his deputy.
Thinking of this, Ronaldo stopped in his tracks.
Everyone says you are very strong, but I want to see how strong you really are.
……
South America, in a hotel room.
Messi, wearing slippers, came out of the bathroom, glanced at the clock on the wall, picked up the remote control with his hand, and turned on the TV.
The live broadcast on TV happened to be the match between France and Spain.
Messi's face looked a little haggard, and he seemed unhappy.
In the just-concluded South American qualifiers, he led Argentina to a 1:1 draw with Bolivia.
Messi missed a lot of opportunities in this game and failed to help the team win.
This has caused him to be criticized and even questioned by the outside world. With the defeat in the World Cup in South Africa, many people began to doubt Messi and whether he could lead Argentina to great results.
There are even some people who doubt his professional attitude, thinking that he did not try his best in the national team competition.
Otherwise, how to explain that he made great strides in the club, but failed directly in the national team?
Faced with these doubts and criticisms, Messi did not stand up and give any explanation.
Explanations are futile. Only by hitting back at them with a better performance on the court can these people's mouths be silenced.
In order to become stronger, Messi has been studying Lin Quan's games recently, hoping to learn from the opponent's performance on the field and find out his own shortcomings.
For Messi, Lin Quan is like a mirror, which can help him find his own strengths and weaknesses and correct them.
Doing so is much more effective than slowly finding your own mistakes!
The game has just started, and Messi is sitting in front of the TV concentratedly, looking forward to what kind of inspiration Lin Quan can bring him!
……
Carrington Training Base, Manchester, UK.
As usual, Ferguson was sitting in his office, enjoying the old wine on the back of his chair while enjoying the focal battle between France and Spain.
Although the game between England and Montenegro was also broadcast live at the same time, Ferguson had no interest in this game.
Montenegro is just a fish belly and will not pose too much threat to England.
Compared with that boring game, the focus battle between France and Spain is more eye-catching.
Especially in this game, there is a young player he is very optimistic about. Ferguson is looking forward to what kind of wonderful performance the opponent can bring him in this game!
……
France, France Ball.
Guardiola, who has signed a contract with Bayern and is about to become Bayern's head coach, appeared in the box of the Stade de France.
In this game, he not only came to cheer for the Spanish national team as an ordinary fan, but also came to inspect Lin Quan's game status as the head coach of Bayern.
It is strange to say that he has watched Lin Quan play many games, but he has never thought about how to use Lin Quan as a head coach like he is now.
It stands to reason that Lin Quan and Messi's style are so similar, and he is the best coach who uses Messi in the world.
He should know how to use Lin Quancai.
However, the staffing and tactics of each team are different. Bayern is not Barcelona. It does not have the midfield configuration of Barcelona and the awareness of passing and controlling football instilled since childhood.
Therefore, because Lin Quan is very similar to Messi, he can't just copy it mechanically and directly use Barcelona's set to Bayern.
Bayern and Barcelona are completely different tactics. He needs to find a balance between the two, not only retaining the traditional advantages of Bayern, but also bringing some advanced ideas that belong to the future development of football in his opinion, so as to achieve both. the perfect fusion.
And this is not a simple matter.
Thinking of this, Guardiola couldn't bear the urge to experiment deep in his heart.
……
In the player tunnel, Lin Quan stood calmly among the Spanish team, waiting to play.
Similar to Lin Quan's state, most players in Spain are not very nervous.
On the other hand, on the home team side, several young players who represented the team for the first time in the starting field looked extremely nervous, and even kept drawing the sign of the cross on their chests.
Lin Quan glanced at the other party, and the other party also looked at him.
With that cool hairstyle, one can tell at a glance that the other party is Paul Pogba.
Pogba's eyes showed envy and longing. He was very envious of Lin Quan. The opponent was so young and had already secured the position of the starting main force of the Spanish national team.
And I have just joined the national team, and I don't know what the future holds.
Thinking of this game again, I was pushed out like being chased away from the shelves, and directly faced Spain's championship-level midfielder.
Pogba was a little worried. If this game is not played well, will the future national team not have a place for itself?
The young Pogba is indeed relatively young, but Lin Quan does not doubt his strength.
He remembers very clearly that this guy will return to Manchester United with the world's number one transfer fee of 1.05 million euros in the future.
Of course, whether Manchester United's money is worth it or not is another matter.
Teams entering the rebuilding period always spend a lot of money on buying people, but they often seem to be wrong.
This is true of Manchester United after Ferguson, and it is also true of Barcelona later.
