Almighty Athlete Chapter 10: The Olympic Games
This time, the American Dream Six team participating in the Athens Olympics is actually a hybrid. None of the five superstars including O’Neal, Kobe, McGrady, Ray Allen and Kidd participated in the Athens Olympics.
But the lineup of the Dream Six team is still luxurious. Iverson, Marbury, Duncan, LeBron, Wade, Anthony, Boozer, Marion, Stoudemire, Odom and Richard Jefferson are all NBA first-line players. , Of which there are superstars and future superstars.
sitting in the car is also idle, Zhang Guan began to analyze the American Dream Six team.
I saw that Zhang Guan put out a finger and said, "First of all, Kidd didn’t come. Who will organize this Dream Six team? Count on Iverson and Marbury?"
As Iverson and Marbury are defenders, it is not that they will not organize, but their style is not the style of guards.
Zhang Guan stretched out his second finger: "Second, Kobe, McGrady and Allen didn’t come. The outside firepower of the Dream Six team must be inadequate. If they meet a three-point opponent, they are likely to pounce on the street. Everyone must know that."
Dream problems with six-degree outside shooting. Everyone knows that none of the team’s guards are particularly accurate. The current 03 Golden Generation has just played in the NBA for a year, and the technology is not as comprehensive as the future. .
"Third, the interior of Dream Six is too weak." Zhang Guan continued.
"Wait, I don't agree with this. The US team has Duncan, Stoudemire, Boozer, Okafor, but they are not weak." Pakistani said.
"Don’t forget that this is the Olympics, the international rules are implemented. Don’t forget that there are no three seconds of defense in the international rules." Zhang Guan then extended his fourth finger and said, "The next point is the fourth point. There is no reasonable collision zone in the international rules, and the inside must be filled with people, which means that the offensive methods of James and Wade are abolished, and Iverson and Marbury can only choose a jumper. I think that this American team mainly depends on personal ability. Singles."
Zhang Guan said that the general basketball coach and even senior fans can analyze it. However, because the national team of the men's basketball team was divided into Group A, and the Dream Six team was divided into Group B, the two teams could not touch, so the men's basketball coaching team did not analyze the Dream Six team, and the players did not know much about Dream The real situation of the six teams.
The car is full of basketball athletes. When basketball is mentioned, it seems to open the conversation box. With Zhang Guan as a leader, the car suddenly became lively.
......
Although the Athens Olympics will not be held until August 13th, many events have already started in advance, such as football.
On the evening of August 10th, Athens time, the Olympic football group stage was officially kicked off. That night was a women’s event. In the women’s Group F game, the women’s national team was beaten by the German women’s team 8:0 Knowing that before this, the spinach company gave the national team women's football team a 1:3.5 odds to win the championship, a 8:0 fiasco, completely beyond everyone's expectations.
The next day, the men’s football match also started. The first match was a match between the men’s A and C teams. There was no upset in this day’s game, and all the winners should be won. The strength gap is not very large The team also shook hands and made peace.
At 8:30 on August 12th, Athens time, the men's football team B and D games started. Italy and Portugal will win the championship on this day.
British William Hill Company.
Deputy Director of Intelligence Analysis Thomas and his colleagues sat together. In front of them, there were four TV sets and four games of the Olympic men’s football team B and D.
Thomas used to be a scout for a small football club in England. Later, the club was acquired and Thomas left. With his football knowledge and technical analysis skills, he successfully entered the well-known British spinach company William Hill. To the position of deputy director of intelligence analysis.
There is a three-hour time difference between Britain and Greece. In addition, in August, the United Kingdom is implementing daylight saving time, so there is no time to go to work at this time, but now it is during the Olympics. Thomas and his colleagues Doomed to work overtime, their job is to watch the group stage of the Olympic football event, analyze the strength, advantages and disadvantages of each team, and despite writing an intelligence analysis report, send it to the data department to formulate the odds for the next game.
In the game against Paraguay against Japan, Paraguay broke through Japan’s goal in just 5 minutes, which made Thomas feel that this game should soon lose its suspense. Costa Rica is playing against Morocco, the two teams are wandering around and are still testing each other. In the match between Italy and Ghana, the two teams quickly entered the state as soon as they came up, which is also a fast-paced game. As for Portugal against Iraq, Thomas was selectively ignored.
"Ghana’s athletes are performing very positively, which is not the same as we had expected. I thought Ghana had already fallen, and now it seems that this young Ghana team is still very good, it is likely to become this group Dark horse. Let’s pay more attention.” Thomas said to his colleagues.
The game reached thirteen minutes. The Portuguese team led Iraq 1:0. It was the backcourt player Jabal of Iraq who scored a goal for the Portuguese team. This is an own goal.
On television, the Iraqi team looked frustrated, and the Portuguese team didn’t see too much happiness. They didn’t even celebrate after scoring a goal. For the Portuguese team, it is reasonable to take the lead against Iraq, and it is an own goal. There is nothing to celebrate.
"This game is over and the gap between the two teams is too great. Guess what the final score will be? 5:0? 6:9? 7:0? Or 10:0? Poor Iraq People, they have just experienced a brutal war, and they will be washed by Portugal on the football field. I think the Portuguese team should put the poor Iraqi one horse and score fewer goals." Thomas said, very sympathetic
scored an own goal in just 13 minutes, and the opponent was a powerful Portugal. No one thought Iraq could win. Some people even think that at this time, Iraqi players standing on the field will be a great pain.
Three minutes later, while the Portuguese fans were still reminiscing about their own goal, the Iraqi team’s Amadeus Mohammed broke the Portuguese goal and equalized the score for Iraq.
"Iraq scored!" Thomas was only slightly surprised, and then relaxed again.
"The Portuguese eased their vigilance because of their own goal, but this is also good. Letting the Iraqi score a goal in the World Cup is an account of Iraqi nationals." Thomas thought to himself.
The Portuguese team that was equalized seemed very impatient, especially Ronaldo on the front line, frequently asked for the ball, and the Portuguese team's offense also frequently caused great pressure on the Iraqi goal.
"At this rhythm, the Portuguese team should have scored a goal! The game will still be one-sided." Thomas once again focused his attention on the Italian team.
In another game, 22 minutes, Japan’s Ono scored a goal and helped the Japanese team to equalize the score, but only four minutes later, Paraguay’s Cardoso broke the Japanese team’s goal, Paraguay 2:1 ahead of Japan.
"Paraguay is leading again, and Portugal is about to score!" Thomas looked at the match between Portugal and Iraq, but found that the Iraqi team was fighting back with the ball.
"Huh? What's going on with the Portuguese defender? This should be defended! Keep up with it! Foul! Not good!" Thomas yelled.
The Portuguese team's goal was broken again. The goal was scored by Haval of the Iraqi team, which led Portugal 2:1.
"Iraq has taken the lead? What's going on." Until then, Thomas began to watch the Iraqi team's performance seriously.
"Although the Iraqi team's technology is rough and the coordination is very general, but their speed is very fast, the athletes have been running. From a tactical point of view, the Iraqi team's play is very simple, there is no very complex cooperation." Thomas Documented the situation in Iraq on his own book.
scored behind Portugal launched a violent attack, the core of the Portuguese team C Ronaldo also performed exceptionally active. Unfortunately, luck does not seem to be on the side of the Portuguese team.
"Cristiano Ronaldo held the ball, he broke through and shot! Oh, what a pity, hit the goal post!"
"C Ronaldo's frontier long shot from the restricted area! Ah, missed."
"C Ronaldo broke into the penalty area, the Iraqi team did not dare to foul, the goalkeeper shot, shot! Beautiful save!"
In the remainder of the first half, Ronaldo showed his superb skills and extraordinary talent, hitting the goal post more than once.
In other games, Ghana took the lead to break the Italian goal in 36 minutes. In 37 minutes, Paraguay’s Cardozo scored twice and Paraguay led Japan 3-1. This game basically lost its suspense.
Near the end of the first half, Bosingwa finally equalized for the Portuguese team. On the other side, in stoppage time, Ghana’s Pilja helped Ghana lead Italy 2:0,
Thomas leaned on the chair, the small book in his hands was densely recorded, but his expression was very solemn.
Iraq 2:2 draw with Portugal, Ghana leads Italy 2:0, which is beyond Thomas' expectation, it can be said that it has burst into an upset. For intelligence analysts such as Thomas, the upset means that they have to conduct more intelligence gathering work, thereby increasing a lot of work.
After a short break, the second half of the game began.
In 49 minutes, the Italian team's Pinchi pulled a goal back. The Italian team still trailed Ghana 1:2. IndoMTL.com~ minutes, the Portuguese team's Boa Moore got a red card.
Boa-Mott plays in the Premier League, so Thomas is also very familiar with him, Thomas knows that Boa-Mott is famous for his temper, and at this moment Boa-Mott has also paid for his recklessness cost.
"Portugal's foul seems to be a little bit more, and now there is one less person, which is not good for the situation." Thomas said.
......
Athens, the Olympic Village.
In order not to affect the rest of other athletes, Zhang Guan ran to the athletes’ activity center in the Olympic Village to watch Iraq’s game against Portugal.
Looking at the TV, the referee pulled out a red card and a smile appeared on Zhang Guan's face.
"History hasn’t changed, and it is still the case. The Iraqis are going to win. But more important is the unyielding will and the spirit of daring to fight, this is the spirit that athletes should have!" Zhang Guan suddenly remembered that Supporting a football team that will always support you unconditionally but will always disappoint yourself will sigh helplessly.
"Forget it, stop talking, let’s think about happy things!
