Chapter 388 Finding Information?
The crowd's enthusiasm will only grow as the game progresses.
And in the second round, the qualifying situation has become more clear, coupled with the national team's solid qualifying position, the domestic atmosphere is quite relaxed and active.
In the two games, the performance of the national team was quite eye-catching every time, and the strength of the participating teams was beyond doubt. Therefore, the China Professional League gradually expanded its influence in this World Invitational Tournament.
The most intuitive thing is that when other countries are reporting on their own World Invitational Tournament, they will also report some news about the Huaxia team. After all, sometimes their own team is too weak. I can talk about other people's teams.
When choosing to report on other strong teams, the first choice is naturally the Huaxia team. The two rounds have a high degree of topicality, and they are also very fresh to foreign players.
For players who like the game of Glory, this is undoubtedly something to be proud of, and the performance of their own team has always been the most heated topic of discussion.
Professional commentators such as Li Yibo, Cha Xiaoxia, and others in the industry also seized the time to write articles related to the World Invitational, and published them on their personal media accounts or e-sports weekly and other official media.
Unknowingly, with the passage of time, the players' discussions about the last round of the game gradually faded away. They are all looking forward to when the third round of the group stage will start.
...
Zurich, July 24.
Everyone in the national team has been training step-by-step these days. In addition to training, they also occasionally arrange some free time. The pre-match arrangements have basically been prepared, and they are waiting for tomorrow night, the third round of the group stage Start.
For the third round, the mentality of the national team is quite peaceful.
As a result, when the Chinese returned to the training room to gather in the morning, the coach of the Norwegian team who was in the same training room took the initiative to join him and walked towards Ye Xiu.
Although Ye Xiu didn't play, he did a lot of things off the court.
Although there is no perfect coaching system in the domestic professional circle, after this period of time, everyone has gradually figured out one thing. Coaches are indeed very important. It's just that the coaches of the weak teams in the domestic league are too low. .
Especially in such a large-scale competition, where strong players from all countries gather, how to build the most suitable lineup for these temporary teams when facing different teams in different situations is already a very difficult task .
Everyone is tacit about this.
At this time, the coach of the Norwegian team came forward, but Ye Xiu thought that the other party was coming to make an appointment for a training match.
In the past two days, the two teams have played many training matches, basically in a single-player mode, one-on-one, and it is not a problem to play back and forth for 20 or 30 rounds in a training match.
The Norwegian team knows that they are not strong enough, and the team competition is basically looking for abuse, so most of them are only singled out, but the winning rate is also quite impressive.
But the Norwegian players still enjoy it.
The Italian team is in the easiest Group A, so there is still a chance to qualify, while the Norwegian team is basically at the bottom. They are now completely focused on participating, and they are more interested in watching and learning from the Huaxia team, so they are very optimistic.
Today is already the third day. It stands to reason that now is the stage of their respective repairs. At most, they will practice in the team, do some review, and try not to play training games with other teams.
The interpreter accompanying the team was preparing to ask questions.
Unexpectedly, before the interpreter could speak, the other party shook his head and said "NO" as soon as he spoke, indicating that he was talking about something else.
When the Norwegian coach finished speaking, the translator also changed his face.
"The Japanese team and them inquired about our tactics and some intelligence."
Although it was a bit of a mouthful, the scene quickly fell silent, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
"Huh? Can it still be like this?" Chu Yunxiu was the first to express his inner thoughts.
"Damn it! I'm still playing this routine, is it useful? Are these people thinking they have a chance to win? No way, no way?" Huang Shaotian also shouted.
"Don't talk about martial arts, this is, can you still play like this? Let me say something first, whether it is useful or not, I am a little disgusted." Fang Rui said.
Sure enough, after hearing the news, everyone's reaction was a bit big, only a few people were calmer, and one of them was Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu said calmly, "Actually, I already know."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
Then Ye Xiu added: "Xiao Chen already told me."
Everyone was dumbfounded again, and looked at Chen Xing.
"How do you know?" Chu Yunxiu asked immediately.
"Of course I overheard it." Chen Xingdao.
"The results of time, place, and characters!" Chu Yunxiu said.
"..." Chen Xing was speechless for a moment, but he still said it briefly.
Yesterday morning, I happened to have a conversation between the coach of the Japanese team and the coach of another team, but the object of the intelligence he saw was not the Norwegian team, but another team that had played a training match with them.
It happened that the two sides were communicating in English, and he heard it.
"Where?" Chu Yunxiu asked thoroughly.
"Turn right from the men's restroom on this floor of the training room." Chen Xing said with a sullen face, "Sister, do you want to ask so clearly?"
"You're going the wrong way. Our training room is on the left," Chu Yunxiu said.
"..." Chen Xing looked hopeless, "You're right."
"So this excludes the possibility that the other party is deliberately influencing our mentality, which means that they are indeed doing so." Wang Jiexi said.
Generally speaking, the same group will not play training games. The Japanese team probably thinks that if they really go to the training game, the national team will not agree. After all, if the same group does not play training games, isn’t it because they are worried that the tactics will be leaked?
In this way, the Japanese team will naturally go to other teams that have played training matches with the Huaxia team to inquire about information.
Coincidentally, there are quite a few teams playing training matches with the national team.
The Norwegian team naturally became one of the choices.
"But don't worry, we haven't leaked any news, but I didn't expect you to know it a long time ago." The Norwegian coach spread his hands.
And even if it is leaked, there is no other information that can be leaked. The gap between the two sides is too big, and the Huaxia team can beat them without revealing their tactics.
Generally speaking, teams in the World Championship can learn from each other, imitate each other's style of play and tactics, and learn lineup arrangements, but they should not communicate with each other to help other teams.
And when playing training games, their own coaches will also restrain their team members from talking nonsense. After all, this is a very disrespectful behavior, and it may not even be easy to make appointments for training games in the future.
But this is just an unspoken rule. Although everyone represents their own country and has different positions, it does not mean that there is no exchange of information in private.
Since the Norwegian team will tell them this matter, it naturally shows that they did not leak the information of the Huaxia team, and they also told this matter incidentally, which is quite honest.
"Actually, there's nothing to reveal, because it's not a big deal, so I didn't plan to say it at first." Ye Xiu said.
After all, speaking out can only affect everyone's mood.
Therefore, only Chen Xing and Ye Xiu knew about this matter.
Everyone understands this. Sometimes it is better not to know than to know. Not everyone has such a good mentality. Now that they know it, many people feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts. The behavior of the other party is somewhat disgusting. .
Maybe the Norwegian team didn't disclose the information, but that doesn't mean the other teams didn't say it, even if it was just irrelevant information, not important information like tactical arrangements, but the nature of the matter has not changed.
The other party would do this, but in fact, they didn't mind whether the Huaxia team knew about it. Anyway, this was the same method as pre-match provocation, and it was a deliberate mentality before the game.
It doesn't matter if some teams keep them at a respectful distance because of this kind of behavior of inquiring about information in private. After all, the goal of the Japanese team is only this game.
"Actually, I hope they can be more straightforward and come to us for a training match. I guarantee that they won't even want to play an official match after the training match." Chen Xing smiled.
"Although they are currently ranked second in points, the conditions for qualifying are quite strict." Xiao Shiqin said.
"Wait until tomorrow to make them look good!"
Then everyone complained about their opponents again, and discussed for a while.
Captain Yu Wenzhou diverted everyone's attention in a timely manner.
"Since everyone knows about this matter now, there is nothing to talk about. The real ability is the ability on the field. Everyone prepare well for tomorrow's game."
"That's right, that's it." Ye Xiu smiled.
This incident briefly excited the crowd of the national team.
Chen Xing felt that this seemed to be a good idea, so that he could play games with more passion and motivation.
As for whether the opponent will have other small tricks, they are not worried.
The Glory official is also a member of the organizer, and for such an important and large-scale event, they will also guarantee the absolute fairness and justice of the event, and all actions must be within the rules.
...
July 25th is coming soon.
Today will be the final round of the group stage.
Everyone had some simple training in the training room in the morning. Other than that, they just watched the game video and reviewed the main points of the two-day training.
In the evening, after having dinner early, teams from all over the world began to gather and leave the hotel one after another.
The atmosphere is more dignified than before. After tonight's game, half of the teams will end their journey for this World Invitational Tournament tonight.
Even the always optimistic Norwegian team was infected with a little worry.
"There is a chance to learn from each other again."
"See you next year."
Before leaving, the two teams also shook hands and said goodbye to each other.
The game hasn't even started yet, and the Norwegian team has already booked themselves out. Telling everyone in advance that we will see you next year is a bit dumbfounding.
Of course, even if the team is eliminated, although the game has nothing to do with them, it does not prevent them from staying in Zurich for a while, shopping, visiting tourist attractions and so on.
The team of the national team once again came to the venue where they played against the Danish team last time.
They walked into the preparation room through the dedicated passage. Just in the preparation room, they could already hear the noise from the auditorium of the stadium outside.
"Tsk tsk, it's really lively."
"It's no wonder it's not lively."
"I'm going to explode today, don't let anyone stop me." Zhang Jiale said, he finally got his chance to play in the group arena.
"Hmph, it doesn't matter if you explode or not, don't lose, it's embarrassing!" Fang Rui said.
They are all experienced players who know how to adjust their emotions before the game.
Chatting at this time is a way, chatting, time passes quickly.
...
On the other side, the broadcast room of the venue.
The live broadcast of the third round of the group stage had just started, and Pan Lin greeted the audience with the camera.
"Good evening, audience friends. It is currently 7:45 p.m. Zurich time. This is the scene of the third round of Group D, Huaxia Team vs. Japan Team. I will explain to you about tonight's game..."
Pan Lin finished reading the opening speech.
Then, the atmosphere began to be exaggerated, but just from the enthusiastic shouts of the audience in the stadium heard from the live radio, one could already feel the atmosphere of the game.
"Tonight is the last round of the group stage. After the game is over, eight teams will be eliminated, ending their trip to the World Invitational Tournament. Among the current 16 teams, some teams have locked the elimination position in advance, and Some of them need to go through tonight's game to finally know, so the atmosphere of tonight's game will be more tense..."
"Our national team has scored full marks in the first two rounds, and we are basically sure of qualifying."
"As for our opponent, the Japanese team currently has 19 points, while Denmark only has 17 points. It seems that they should fight hard for a chance to qualify. Even if they fall in the quarterfinals, it is already quite good. score."
After all, the quarterfinals are the quarterfinals, but if you fall in the group stage, no one cares whether you are strong or weak in the eliminated group.
And if Denmark really falls in the group stage, it can be said to be a shocking upset.
So the Danish players are very nervous about this matter now, because as long as the Huaxia team gets 6 points, they will advance steadily. Maybe they will play a show with the Japanese team. Not to mention letting the Japanese team win. Even if you get 11 points, you have to fall in front of the qualifying position.
However, Danish players don't know or don't empathize enough.
Facing the Japanese team, it is absolutely impossible for the Huaxia team to release water.
The time came to eight o'clock on time.
In the warm atmosphere of the scene, the two teams walked out of the player channel respectively.
The contestants on both sides seemed to just look at each other, and in the eyes of the audience on both sides, they seemed to have different emotions.
There are a lot of Huaxia spectators in the stadium. In addition, it also attracts many foreign audiences to pay attention to the Huaxia team's game.
There are also many supporters for the Japanese team.
Although the national team has proved its strength, the opponents have obviously not given up. Just look at their "preparations" before the game.
And the Japanese team's first two games, one against Denmark 8-11, and the other against the Netherlands 11-8, seem to be pretty good. If they can beat the mighty Huaxia team with an upset, their achievements can be said to be immeasurable.
Coupled with some special reasons and various conditions superimposed, the Japanese team has no reason to give up in advance.
It can be seen from the expression of the Japanese team.
Their expressions are much more serious than those of the national team.
Suddenly, the noise in the arena suddenly increased, which also attracted Pan Lin's attention. The camera was aimed at the audience, who were competing with real people. Fortunately, they were stopped by the security guards maintaining order.
"There seems to be some commotion in the venue. Everyone's emotions are a bit too intense. Don't get excited. Our game will start soon..."
