Chapter 989 Thank You so Much
Latest website:
Saudi Arabia has always been the representative team of the Asian technology stream and the leader of West Asian football. 1's performance also attracted many fans.
However, ever since the 0:8 defeat to Germany in the 2002 World Cup group stage in South Korea and Japan, Saudi Arabia has been feeling a little bit depressed. It has been struggling for so many years. Not only did it hand over the throne of West Asia's hegemony to Iran, but it was also often defeated by Iraq, Oman, The likes of Syria ride on their head and run wild.
However, Saudi football has made a significant recovery in the past two years, as evidenced by reaching the Russian World Cup finals in 2018. Although they failed to qualify from the group stage in the World Cup, they defeated Egypt, which is also in the Arab world and has Salah. This is Saudi Arabia's first cup victory, and it can be regarded as not returning empty-handed.
The restored Saudi Arabia still has Asia's first-class foot skills, which are more rigid than in the past. Their rich full-court press content makes them very trendy and a brand-new team.
But having said that, even when Saudi Arabia was at its strongest, the old national football team did not fail them, not to mention that now they have Zhuo Yang, and they are also holding the power of third place in the World Cup.
It stands to reason that Saudi Arabia should be in the same group as the Chinese team and keep a low profile, but they are the only team besides the Chinese team that clearly shouted the slogan of "win the championship". The host UAE, the defending champion Australia, and the old and strong teams South Korea, Iran and Japan did not do this. Roest bun.
Nowadays, there are many famous coaches in Asia. Among the famous players participating in the Asian Cup this time are Sforza of the Chinese team, Queiroz of Iran, Zaccheroni of the United Arab Emirates, Cooper of Uzbekistan, Eriksson of the Philippines, Bento of South Korea, etc. The top 24 Only Japan, Australia, North Korea, and Turkmenistan are local commanders.
But the loudest one was the Saudi head coach and Spaniard Juan Picchi.
It’s hard for the Saudis to earn money. Dutch coach Van Marwijk worked hard to push Saudi Arabia through the Asian qualifying rounds and the 1 Cup main draw, but he did not get a contract extension from Saudi Arabia. His coaching position was replaced by former Argentina national team coach Edgar Do Bauza instead.
But Bauza did not secure a golden job. He was fired after only five games. It was a sin to lose three consecutive games in the warm-up period. 2017 was a bad year. Argentina, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Bauza were fired three times in one year.
Juan Picchi was dismissed because he failed to lead Chile to the World Cup in Russia, but he was spotted by the Saudi Football Association and took over from Bauza. He led the team to the World Cup and the Asian Cup.
On the same day that the Chinese team defeated the Philippines 7:0, Saudi Arabia easily defeated Kyrgyzstan 4:0. The result of the game was even more shocking than the battle between China and the Philippines. You must know that the five Central Asian countries that came out of the CIS do not have a true underdog. Kyrgyzstan not only has naturalized players, but also eight sea turtles in the team.
Saudi Arabia showed good passing and ball control capabilities, with a ball possession rate of 80%. In other words, apart from being tired of defense, Kyrgyz could hardly pass the ball offensively. Frankly speaking, even if Manchester City comes to play Kyrgyzstan now, it may not be easy to do this.
The Saudis are well-deserved for their footwork skills that were once the best in Asia.
After the game, Peach said: "The Chinese team is not invincible. Didn't France do it? What's more, the current Chinese team is not the one in the World Cup."
"Zhuoyang is very good, but many games have shown that you don't need to beat Zhuoyang to play with the Chinese team, just beat his team. 7:0 is not more convincing than 4:0. We all know what the strength of the Philippines is. of."
"In the match against the Chinese team, Saudi Arabia's ability to control the ball will still have an advantage. This is the key to us defeating the Chinese team and even winning the championship."
well said! Zhuo Yang wanted to give him a round of applause.
The outside world has praised it too much, and the Chinese team needs someone to give it some eye drops at this time. Piqi's "arrogance" is simply a live striker, which is much more effective than Zhuoyang racking his brains to be a political commissar in the locker room.
The Chinese team, old and young, all share the same hatred. Thank you so much.
"Piqi is a very high-level football coach." Zhuoyang said: "I wish him good luck in Saudi Arabia."
It is important to 'wish good luck' to a coach, because in just five days since the Asian Cup started, three coaches have resigned or will soon be dismissed.
The territory of Asian football has been redefined, and because of the expansion of the Asian Cup, many "rare guests" from major competitions have entered the competition, such as the Philippines, Kyrgyzstan, Ballesta, Vietnam, Thailand and India.
These teams are undoubtedly divided into different levels. Among them, Thailand is obviously the strongest, because other teams have entered the main competition through the qualifiers, and only Thailand has passed through the top 12 in Asia in the world preliminaries.
Although Thailand failed to win a game in Group B of the top 12 of the 2018 World Cup qualifying rounds and turned into a "point-giving boy", as the media in Thailand said, the team is now the "strongest in history."
If you want to talk about the weakest, it must be India, because this is a country that has nothing to do with football. How can the third brother be interested in talking to you about this.
But in the first round of Group A, Thailand lost to India 1:4 very comfortably. The king of Southeast Asia encountered the "most fantasy in history."
After the game, Serbian head coach Miloan Lajevac, who had served as an assistant coach at Beijing Guoan for three years and also led Ghana to the quarterfinals of the World Cup in South Africa, was immediately dismissed.
Tai's interim coach, Sirisa Yogiatai, who replaced Rajvac, has worked as a driver, cook and winger.
And just today, after being tied 0:0 by underdog Ballesta in the first round and losing 0:2 to Jordan in the second round, Syria, which lost hope of qualifying, announced the dismissal of head coach Baird Stangl.
The 71-year-old German coach Stangl is the last head coach of the East German national team and also once coached Hertha Berlin. 201, I was moved by the sincerity of the Syrian Football Association to visit the thatched cottage three times before I came out of the mountain again.
At that time, in order to marry Stangl, the Syrian Football Association unilaterally tore up the contract signed with another German coach Anthony Hay and did not pay a penny in compensation. To this day, people are still litigating with them.
It’s true that I love you, and it’s true that I’m annoyed by you now. Syria is like a woman with a seven-year itch. Don't complain about fate, you just lost to time.
This time, Stange was not given a penny in compensation. I wonder if the old coach will fall out and sue him in court. Fail Ibrahim, the interim coach who succeeded Stangl, is a serious man whose life is full-back and assistant coach.
Another one is Eriksson. After losing to the Chinese team 0:7, the Philippines was ridiculed by all Asia. Eriksson felt that Cooper was in the air and he could not fully control the team, but he took the blame and charged forward.
After the game that day, Eriksson announced that he would be resigning after the Asian Cup. Group C is obviously a fish pond between the Chinese team and Saudi Arabia. The Philippines' trip to the Asian Cup is also the group stage, and Eriksson is only a few days away.
So now Zhuo Yang wishes Peach 'good luck'.
Maybe Juan Peach has the arrogance. After all, not everyone can make boss May's Argentina hateful in 201. Among the top 24 coaches, there is no world champion or European champion. It is understandable that he is a bit of a star as the America's Cup champion.
You can't win with words. At the Sayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, Australian referee Peter Green sounded the opening whistle. The Chinese team met its old rival Saudi Arabia, which they had not met for many years.
The ball control and foot skills are the best in Asia. After the start, Saudi Arabia ordered Zhuoyang and the Chinese team to shout: Good guy, I am just good guy.
