Chapter 1208

After ten days of intensive training at Jingtao training base in Hainan, the Chinese team left for Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the Copa America!

This time, situ Yunbing's mentality is relaxed. His participation in the Copa America is not planned. Considering that he deprives the players of part of their vacation time, his mentality is more Buddhist.

It's better to compete with the South American giants and improve their experience. As for the results, he doesn't care.

This America's cup was held in Brazil. 10 teams from South America were invited to China and Japan to participate in the war. 12 teams were divided into three groups. The first two teams in each group qualified, and the first two teams in four groups qualified. A total of 8 teams became the top eight teams of the America's cup.

The weather in Rio de Janeiro is hot, and the Chinese team feels quite good after its arrival. After all, the purpose of training in Hainan is also to enhance the team's adaptability and endurance in hot weather. The next World Cup will be held in Qatar in winter, but the temperature is also not low.

Staying in the hotel in Rio de Janeiro, everything went step by step. Five days before the opening of the Copa America, the Chinese team played a warm-up game with Bolivia. Both teams showed relative caution and finally shook hands and ended 1-1.

Both teams have obviously not made efforts, so they do not have the reference of strength investigation.

Situ Yunbing was invited to attend the opening ceremony of the America's cup. On June 15, the America's Cup officially opened!

Situ Yunbing stood with many officials of the South American Football Association at the guest table, as well as many famous Brazilian players, Bailey in the far and Cafu in the near. They also have great respect for situ Yunbing. After all, they are very important legends in the history of European football. Their group photos also seem to have a sense of historical heaviness.

The opening game host Brazil against Bolivia. Neymar withdrew from the national team list due to injury before this competition. As a result, the strength of the Brazilian team has been affected to a certain extent, but South American football has been going downhill, so there is no absolute king.

Taking the last World Cup as an example, there are no South American teams in the top four of the world cup!

If we look back, Argentina was the runner up in the 2014 World Cup, but it is well known how difficult they played, not to mention Brazil's humiliating defeat to Germany's World Cup record at home.

However, in South America, there are still some problems since the level gap is stepped.

If a team like Bolivia plays Brazil or Argentina at home, it won't pestle at all, because they are a plateau team. Many opponents don't adapt to the altitude at their home and play badly.

But when it comes to Brazil, Bolivia can only be slaughtered.

Brazil coach tit obviously retained his strength. Like William, Sandro and Jesus of the team, they all sat on the bench and didn't start.

When the game began, Brazil controlled the initiative on the field. Former situ Yunbing's disciple kutinio in Liverpool was the most active player on the field. The Brazilian star who had a low performance after going to Barcelona seemed to be at odds with Barcelona.

But back to Brazil, the national team can still play well.

At the beginning of the second half, kutinho scored two goals in five minutes to help Brazil lead two goals, and then tit began to change people.

Neymar's landing in European football actually cost Barcelona more than 100 million euros, which also led to the resignation of the chairman of the transfer. Now the most talented and concerned supernova in Brazil is Everton. European media have long exposed that many giants have followed and observed him. Once he landed in Europe, the transfer fee is bound to exceed 100 million!

After Everton came on the stage, he took the assist of Fernando inho and scored a goal to help Brazil lock the victory.

A win by Brazil opened the curtain for the Copa America.

China's participation in the Copa America has indeed directly increased the ratings and attention of the Copa America, and there are a lot more discussions on the Copa America on social media than in previous years.

Two days later, the Maracana stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

One group game in group B has ended, and Argentina lost 2-0 to Colombia.

In the second game, China played Paraguay.

Before the game, situ Yunbing didn't talk too much about the game. He just said that he didn't know much about South American football, so he came to the Copa America with a humble heart to learn. If he can gain some experience here, it is a very valuable asset.

Paraguay's coach is Eduardo berizo. His career is not brilliant, but he also made a tour in European football and then stepped into the coaching industry. A few years ago, the peak of coaching in European football was to lead Sevilla to the semi-finals of the Europa League. Unfortunately, he was finally eliminated by Manchester United LED by Mourinho and blocked out of the finals.

Then he stopped teaching because he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. After treatment, his body began to recover. He picked up the whip of Paraguay and is now a famous anti-cancer fighter in South American football.

The legendary and magnificent Maracana stadium in Brazil really made situ Yunbing dizzy, because the stadium was large and could accommodate 80000 spectators. It didn't sound much, but before the renovation, it could accommodate 200000 people!

After looking around the stadium, situ Yunbing went to belizo and shook hands with the other side before the game.

Situ Yunbing really didn't use many Brazilian players in his days of coaching in European football. It can be said that there are few South American players, which makes him have little prestige in South America.

South American football has always struggled with European football to compete for the first position in the world.

They don't hold an Asian cup like Asia, which is more or less self entertainment. In the hearts of many South American fans, the status of the American Cup is also very high.

The Chinese team's participation is considered to be the nature of making up numbers, so as to make the America's Cup look more large-scale and generate more revenue.

As for situ Yunbing, the fans here don't like him.

How high have you achieved in European football?

It has nothing to do with them.

The first players of the two teams entered the field, and the atmosphere was warm. Paraguay received much more support than China.

"Good evening, everyone, and welcome to the first round of group B of the 2019 Copa America in Brazil.

Japan and China from Asia are invited to participate in this America's cup. Today, China will debut at Maracana stadium, while Japan will meet Chile tomorrow.

The media are not optimistic about the performance of China and Japan in this competition. Most of them think they can go home after the group game.

But I think both teams have great prospects.

You know, Japan almost eliminated Belgium in the world cup and reached the top eight!

The Chinese team also won the Asian Cup just four and a half months ago. Besides, they also have a legendary coach situ Yunbing!

Let's introduce the starting lineup of both sides.

The Chinese team started 433 today

Goalkeeper: Shen Jingjie.

Guards: Abdu haimiti, Bai yuanfan, Cheng Renjun, Li Lei.

Midfield: Zhang Zhibang, Zhao Fenghua, Huang Bozhou.

Forwards: Luo Xin, Wu Lei, Luo Cheng.

According to this list, the Chinese team has come up with the strongest team to participate in the Copa America!

Paraguay starting 451

Goalkeeper: Fernandez.

Defenders: asamendia, barbuena, Valdes, Alonso.

Midfield: Dominguez, Rojas, Almiron, Otis, Peres.

Striker: Cardoso.

Paraguay has reservations. They put many main players on the bench waiting for the war with Colombia and Argentina!

Well, the game will start right away. Let's look forward to this game! "

Situ Yunbing doesn't know whether he has been despised by his opponent, or whether the promotion conditions of this group are not harsh. The first two can qualify, and the third with good results can qualify!

Although he played the Copa America with a Buddhist mentality, he still did a good job.

For example, several important players who have been replaced in Paraguay have not appeared today.

The attacking midfielder Sanchez in 96, the winger Gonzalez in 94, the winger iturbe in 93 and the center Santander in 91 did not appear!

The players sent by Paraguay today are really not enough.

Only 2 of the first 11 players played in European football. Defender barbuena played for West Ham United and former midfielder Almiron played for Newcastle United. These two people couldn't even play the main force in the team when situ Yunbing was still in charge of Liverpool. Naturally, they didn't leave any impression on situ Yunbing.

Among other players, only Cardoso, who used to play Benfica for eight years, can be called a famous general.

But Cardoso is now 36 years old!

Among the other players, only Peres plays in the Qatar League to make money, and the rest play in South America or North America Mexico League.

Such a Paraguayan team can not be said to be the second team, but it definitely did not show its strongest strength.

Belizzo may really want to make the team recharge and play two games with Argentina and Colombia. As for the Chinese team, it's not necessary to show all the cards.

After seeing his opponent's starting lineup, situ Yunbing was no longer at ease.

Since Paraguay wants to retain its strength, the Chinese team will let them try whether it is so easy to win the game!

With the referee's whistle, the match between China and Paraguay officially started.

Situ Yunbing, standing on the sidelines to supervise the war, looked serious, and the Chinese team also put on a tight formation to resist the attack of Paraguay.

South American teams are mostly players with flexible skills and speed, but there is an obvious gap between the overall tactical rigor and European teams.

Paraguay's first flank attack was launched from the left. When Peres received the pass from Rojas on the left in the front court, he wanted to go to the bottom of the ball, but abduhemiti destroyed the ball out of the sideline.

The first attack did not succeed!

Belizo sat on the coach's seat and looked at the tight formation of the Chinese team. Suddenly, he had an ominous feeling in his heart.

This game may not be as easy to win as expected!
