Gao Zheng was also unanimously welcomed by his teammates in the national team.

During dinner, when Gao Zheng walked in, when he walked in, his teammates and coaches in the restaurant stood up, looked at him, and applauded him.

Everyone is sending such a message to him and welcome him back!

For today's Chinese team, Gao Zheng is very, very important.

Everyone realized this.

But in fact, this was not a consensus before Gao Zheng was injured.

During the Asian Cup, the Chinese team played well, and Gao Zheng was not the only player who performed well. Although Gao Zheng played a very important role in China in the Asian Cup, other players were also very important.

But everyone knew who the top 12 games was the boss of this team.

Only when the tide fades, will we know who is swimming naked.

This sentence is no exception when used in the Chinese team.

Before Gao Zheng was injured, everyone just thought Gao Zheng was very important to the Chinese team. But when Gao Zheng was injured, everyone knew that Gao Zheng was so important to the Chinese team!

The Chinese team without Gao Zheng couldn't even score a goal.

The last time the Chinese team scored a goal in the game was the first top 12 match on September 1 last year. Gao Zheng scored two goals in that game, which is also all the goals the Chinese team has scored in this top 12 match so far.

The Chinese team without Gao Zheng can't even score the ball...

After Gao Zheng was injured, some media may have written an article to bring confidence to Chinese fans, and they believe that the situation is not as bad as everyone imagined.

After all, although we have no Gao Zheng, Wu Lei, who is also a La Liga striker.

Iran is at home again. As long as the tactics are correct and the players work together, they may not be able to defeat Iran at home.

As a result, Wu Lei, who was highly anticipated, did not score in that game.

It’s not that he performs poorly, but that after lacking Gao Zheng, no one attracts defensive firepower for Wu Lei, he can only face all the opponent’s defensive forces alone. Wu Lei is not the kind of powerful center that fights against the opponent’s defense line head-on. He needs to pull out the space and run flexibly. Once he is entangled by the opponent, the threat will drop significantly.

Without Gao Zheng, Wu Lei will be the target of public criticism. No matter how high he is, it will be difficult for him to perform.

Next, I played at home in Syria and had the advantage of the whole game. As a result, I couldn't score the goal. Instead, the opponent took advantage of the mistakes of our goalkeeper and the defender to counterattack and scored a goal. The three-pointer that was originally not allowed to be scored was flew away.

Even if he plays against Uzbekistan, he can't score any goals.

After changing the head coach, the team's spirit was boosted, but when they faced Qatar at home on the plateau, they still couldn't score the goal without having the advantage.

Now everyone has seen that the biggest problem that restricts the Chinese team's performance is scoring ability. If the Chinese team has sufficient scoring ability, even if they lose to Iran at home and Uzbekistan away, as long as they can still win Syria and Qatar and get six points, the current situation will be much better.

The Chinese team, which lost Gao Zheng, also lost its scoring ability.

So Gao Zheng is equivalent to scoring goals and scoring ability.

If Gao Zheng continues to fail to make a comeback, he knows how long the collective goal drought of the Chinese team will last.

Now that Gao Zheng’s return has given everyone great confidence, at least the goal is guaranteed.

Faced with the enthusiasm of his teammates, Gao Zheng happily responded: "Thank you everyone, I'm back!"

Teammates rushed up to him, gathered around him, caring about his situation.

After all, Atletico Madrid did not let him play, and everyone was worried about whether Gao Zheng could not play.

His return is just to boost morale.

"I don't think there is much problem with my physical condition, but I listen to the coach." Gao Zheng said to his teammates with a smile.

He gave his teammates confidence and also gave Lippi face, and did not say anything to death, so as not to let Lippi ask him to play as a substitute, which caused his teammates to have random thoughts.

When many people heard him say this, they smiled and felt relieved.

Gao Zheng said there was no problem, that was no problem.

※※※

Lippi and his coaching team watched the scene from the side, and assistant coach Madaloni sighed: "It's been a long time since I saw such an atmosphere in the team."

"Because their backbone is back." Lippi smiled.

"Then you let him play as a substitute, aren't you afraid of letting the players think randomly?"

"It is a tactical need to let him play as a substitute." Lippi replied simply.

"Actually I'm a little worried..." Madaloni said with a frown. "After he was injured, he has never participated in the official competition. I don't know how much the impact of that injury on him was. But I think his performance will definitely be worse than before he was injured. It's like a car that has been overhauled is not as good as a new car."

Lippi didn't say anything about this view of the assistant coach.

Because he didn't know what situation Gao Zheng had recovered to now.

The reason why he insists on letting Gao Zheng play is, on the one hand, it is out of trust in Gao Zheng, and on the other hand, it is naturally because he has no choice but to not let Gao Zheng play. Can the Chinese team win against the South Korean team? It is very difficult, very difficult.

※※※

Gao Zheng's return to the national team was the top priority. That night, the TV station and the Internet were all about this matter.

The scene of Gao Zheng being warmly welcomed by all the national team players was also played repeatedly.

All this is to give fans some confidence in the next game.

The Korean team is indeed strong, and Gao Zheng is obviously not in his best condition.

Chinese fans need confidence.

Next, Gao Zheng's first training class for the Chinese team was also full of reporters, including many Korean journalists.

Korean reporters also want to see with their own eyes how Gao Zheng’s current preparation status is.

However, the Chinese team gave the reporters fifteen minutes of public shooting time.

And during these fifteen minutes, the Chinese team warmed up the whole time.

What can you tell from the warm-up?

Gao Zheng ran around the field with his teammates talking and laughing, and then did various stretching movements together. He always had a smile on his face and said something to his teammates, which made him laugh from time to time.

There is basically no valuable news, except for knowing Gao Zheng’s mood and his teammates are in a good mood.

But the question is what is the use of this?

As soon as the fifteen minutes arrived, reporters from China and South Korea were invited to leave the venue.

Next, Lipi led the players to start tactical training.

It can be said that it is racing against time.

Because Gao Zheng had never worked with him before, this was his first time participating in the national training he coached.

Although Gao Zheng won't know this game, it doesn't mean that Gao Zheng doesn't need to adapt to the current tactical requirements of this national team.

After a training class, Gao Zheng's performance made everyone happy.

At least during training, his performance is not a problem.

You can't even tell that he was injured.

When it comes to doing the movement, you don't hesitate to care about the injured part at all.

Sometimes his teammates couldn't help but turn their eyes to his knees where he had the surgery, but Gao Zheng was unaware of it.

"If we can perform like this in the game, then we have a great chance to win this game!" Madaloni said to Lippi excitedly.

"Competition and training are completely different. But this is indeed a good sign..." Lippi said.
Chapter completed!
