Chapter 217 Apprenticeship
Gao Han immediately turned around when he heard the shout.
I saw an old man with a smile behind me at some point, but wasn't the head coach of the national team Milu?
"Hey, Bora." Gao Han immediately smiled and reached out, "I'm glad to see you."
"So too, I'm very honored to see you."
The two shook hands vigorously, and this scene was secretly photographed by some interested people in the lobby.
The most popular and successful local coach in China met Milu, who led the national team to the World Cup, what will the two talk about?
In fact, I didn’t talk about anything serious, just you brag me and I brag you, the scene was very harmonious.
"I have watched many games in Atletico Madrid this season and I feel it very profound. I even feel that you are playing a kind of football that is more advanced than others."
"Thank you." Gao Han smiled and thanked him, and also praised the Chinese national football team fiercely.
Although many people say that the national team can advance to the World Cup this time mainly because of the lottery luck, in fact, that is only part of it, because with the strength of the national football team, even if the two strong rivals, South Korea and Japan, they may not be sure to advance to the finals.
At least, in Asia, except Saudi Arabia and Iran, the football level in some other countries is not low.
The Chinese national football team is indeed popular, but the advantage is not great.
Let me ask, even the level of the Netherlands can be defeated in the European qualifiers. Who dares to say that the national football team enters the finals by luck?
Of course, in recent times, Comrade Milu has been too diligent in his work, giving people a feeling of not doing his job properly.
Gao Han thought so in his heart, but he still praised Milu and the national football team on the surface.
As the head coach of the national team, Milu seems to attach great importance to the opinions and judgments of Gao Han, a coach who is from a local background but has gained a foothold at the top of European professional football, so he has always hoped that Gao Han can express his opinions.
It was really hard to resist, so Gao Han could only say something casually.
"As long as the time matches in the national football team, I watch every game. I think the gap between the strength of the strong team is still relatively large. There is no problem with the players' mental outlook and game investment. I think the main problem is still at two points."
Milu nodded and listened very seriously.
"Overall, the team's tactical order is not rigorous enough, and the individual players have insufficient tactical literacy, which makes the team's entire formation unable to form a joint force during the game."
"Well said." Milu nodded.
"For example, at Atletico Madrid, two of our players can oppress four opponents, and may not necessarily grab the ball, but at least it can effectively delay their offense, which requires the players to form a joint force."
"But in the national football team's game, I feel a little...scattered."
Milu let out a light breath, "I have noticed this, but it cannot be changed in a short time."
"This failure to effectively form a joint force is reflected in the game. The players are very diligent, active in running, and very dedicated, but they are useless and waste too much physical fitness and energy on internal consumption, and they are unable to consistently treat the outside world."
"It's like running. I specially asked my team to analyze data for two or three national football matches. The running distance is actually not too bad. In some games, players will run over 10,000 meters, but most of the running lacks purpose and foresight, and just blindly follow the situation of the game."
When analyzing this, Gao Han smiled slightly again, "I think these problems cannot be solved in a short period of time. It is a very successful beginning for the team to enter the World Cup finals this time."
Entering the World Cup finals record-breaking, domestic football has taken the first step.
Next, the next step is to enter the World Cup finals steadily, and at the same time, we should increase efforts to encourage players to study abroad.
Only by communicating more, communicating more and playing more with the most advanced football level abroad can we improve our domestic football level.
When Milu heard this, she nodded, "The opinions you said are very valuable. Can you find an opportunity to send us a copy of your team's data analysis report?"
"Of course there is no problem. I will call them to fax them over afterwards." Gao Han smiled cheerfully.
As a Chinese, he is also happy that his country's team can enter the World Cup finals.
Especially a fan, he hopes to see the football level of his motherland rise steadily.
Because he never believed that a country with the largest population base in the world would have no football genius.
But it takes more time.
It's like Atletico Madrid can't catch up with Real Madrid and Barcelona overnight.
What's more, the gap between the national football team and the world's advanced level is far greater than the gap between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.
After chatting with Milu for a few more casual conversations, several more active international players soon walked into the lobby.
The international players admire Gao Han, a local coach who is so popular in La Liga, and kept asking about the current situation of European professional football and the possibility of Chinese players playing football in Europe.
Gao Han also knew everything about this and said everything. Not only did he encourage international players to study abroad, but he also promised that he would provide help within his ability, and even did not rule out helping to contact him.
This also won him high praise from international players.

"Do you think our country has hope for this World Cup?"
After sending Milu and the international players away, Chu Yao asked with concern.
Unexpectedly, this female Ultraman is quite concerned about the national football team.
"It depends on how much you want." Gao Han smiled faintly.
Chu Yao thought for a while, "Quick in the group stage?"
This is also the goal of many domestic media, striving to qualify in groups.
But Gao Han shook his head, "Impossible."
"Why?"
"Although Brazil's qualifiers are not good, I tell you that Brazil has super strength, Ronaldo, Rivaldo and Ronaldinho, these three are definitely the world's top superstar players. Scolari's tactical style is very pragmatic and will not easily make people upset."
Although Atletico Madrid's Kaka performed extremely well in La Liga and was selected for the latest Brazilian national team, he is still a junior in front of superstars such as Ronaldo. It should be fine to play occasionally, but it is difficult to play as the main player.
"Türkiye's strength is also very good. Costa Rica is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The national football team wants to get a bargain from these two teams..."
Gao Han didn't say much, just shook his head and laughed.
When domestic media are staring at others, they also regard you as a fat sheep.
"The first time participating in the World Cup finals is to be pragmatic and learn first. Don't set too high goals for yourself. There are many things on the football field that you can't get by just trying your best."
Chu Yao curled her lips, thinking that Gao Han was a little too underestimating the Chinese national football team?
After finally entering the World Cup finals, there should be hope for a fight, right?
But just as Gao Han and the other two were about to leave the lobby and walk towards the studio, they suddenly saw the young man who had been smiling at them in the distance opposite, walking towards them.
If this guy looks good, the smile on his face is a bit creepy.
But just in Gao Han, Lin Xia and Chu Yao were looking at each other and guessing who this guy was looking for, Xiang Tianming suddenly walked to Gao Han and shouted heavily, "Master."
"Master...father?" Lin Xia and Chu Yao both opened their eyes wide and looked at Gao Han.
When did this guy take his apprentice?
Gao Han himself was also stupid. I had an apprentice who didn’t even know it. It was so amazing.
"You...have you recognized the wrong person?" Gao Han was caught off guard.
"No, you admit your mistake, you are Gao Han."
"Yeah, right."
"That's right, Master, it's me, have you forgotten?"
Gao Han became depressed and scratched his head, really couldn't remember.
Why did an apprentice suddenly appear out of thin air?
"Master, you are busy with noble people. Think about it again, the one who played football with foreigners in the park last time..." Xiang Tianming was also anxious and recognized his master in full view, but he failed to recognize you. It was too embarrassing.
"Oh, you're that..."
"Yes, it's me. I am the captain Xiang Tianming, have you remembered it?"
Gao Han smiled embarrassedly, "I don't remember."
Xiang Tianming almost cried. Is my presence so bad?
Looking at the beauties on Gao Han’s left and right sides, Lin Xia and Chu Yao couldn’t help laughing and told him that he wanted to drill a hole in the ground. It was so embarrassing.
"Master, you taught me to play football that day, and defeated those foreigners, and later went to the newspaper. Do you always have an impression of this?"
Gao Han finally remembered, "But I am not your master."
"A teacher for one day and a teacher for life. From that day on, I have determined that you are my master."
Hey, you guys are donkeys?
"Anyway, I am not your master, and I am not interested in accepting disciples." Gao Han pulled Lin Xia and Chu Yao into it.
Xiang Tianming did quickly walk beside him, "You may not recognize me as an apprentice, but you cannot stop me from recognizing you as a master. It doesn't matter if you don't recognize me for the time being. I will definitely show my sincerity in becoming a disciple."
Oh my god, what is this fallacy?
I just saw that you played so badly. I just said a few words, how could you become your master?
Also, is it a coach?
…………

After finally getting rid of Xiang Tianming, I entered the studio, and even more troublesome things came.
First, Director Ma from the familiar CCTV Sports Department came, and the members of the filming team that went to Spain, including two famous commentators from China, followed by the top leaders and officials of the Football Association, and finally some seniors and colleagues from the sports industry, and even some sponsor representatives.
After this round of struggle, Gao Han was exhausted before he received the award, and he was even more tired than commanding a game.
But in the end, he went on stage to receive the Best Newcomer of the Year Award.
As for the speech to receive the award, he must have been not stupid enough to read the manuscript he had made before. He just thanked all parties, and after a few brief and polite words, he stepped down from the stage.
The Best Coach Award was won by table tennis, while the national team won the Best Breakthrough Award. Milu went on stage to receive the award on behalf of the team.
Chapter completed!
