揭幕戰(zhàn)那些事兒
3. 克羅地亞中前衛(wèi)也不差
3. Croatia’s central midfield isn’t half bad
科瓦奇挑選一套非常強(qiáng)勁的攻擊陣容，克羅地亞主教練決定以莫德里奇和伊萬(wàn)·拉基蒂奇為核心中場(chǎng)，一點(diǎn)也不讓人覺(jué)得意外。因?yàn)檫@兩名球員的有能力勝任，甚至比巴西的中場(chǎng)更勝一籌。他們的先天能力和后天努力告訴我們他們應(yīng)該在本場(chǎng)比賽中獲得回報(bào)。墨西哥和喀麥隆都不想在小組賽碰到他們，特別是當(dāng)曼朱基齊回歸之后，莫德里奇和伊萬(wàn)·拉基蒂奇仍將是讓球迷心跳停止的球員。
Nico Kovac picked a very attacking line-up, but not so surprising was the Croatia manager’s decision to build his midfield around Luka Modric and Ivan Rakitic, two players capable of matching or even bettering Brazil’s engine room. Their ability and effort provided a platform that should reap rewards. Neither Mexico nor Cameroon will enjoy facing them, especially when Mario Mandzukic returns from suspension. Modric and Rakitic will remain the heartbeat.
