When the football is played on the right side of the South China Tigers, the center of gravity and focus of all the players are concentrated on that side, so there are relatively few players on the other side and no one pays attention.
Because everyone's back is facing that direction.
At this time, Peng Weijun's position was relatively forward, almost close to the center line.
But this is normal when the South China Tigers attack. After all, the full-backs also need to participate in the attack.
Not to mention that Peng Weijun himself is a left winger who plays as a temporary full-back. It is reasonable for him to want to participate in the offense more actively.
It's just that when the South China Tigers lost the ball during the attack, he stayed in front and didn't return to defense immediately, which was a problem.
So when the other three real defenders discovered that the ball had been lost and retreated in unison, Peng Weijun, who was chasing the duck, still stayed in front, hesitating.
As a result, a huge and obvious gap appeared in the South China Tigers' defense.
Of course, this gap was also discovered by the people of Cairo.
First, a Cairo player pulled into the space on the wing and ambush.
Then the Cairo people transferred a long diagonal pass, directly from the left wing of their attack to the right wing.
It was at this time that Peng Weijun discovered that there was a huge gap behind him for his opponent.
There were loud exclamations at the scene.
Amid the exclamation, Peng Weijun was seen chasing after him at an unimaginable speed.
It was as if the distance of about seven or eight meters between the two people didn't exist, and he instantly crossed it.
For a moment, it was hard to tell whether the exclamation was for the South China Tigers, who had holes in their defense, or for Peng Weijun, who was incredibly fast...
Then he passed by the inside of the opponent's player's body and at the same time stretched out his foot to poke the football in front of him away!
The exclamations turned into cheers!
After poking away the football, Peng Weijun continued to chase the football.
Then, without looking back at all, he seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He guessed what the opponent's player was going to do. When the Cairo player was about to close in on him and prevent him from turning around, he struck first and pushed the ball backwards.
After a knock, he immediately turned around and caught the opponent player off guard!
The cheers suddenly increased.
Peng Weijun turned around and gave full play to his speed advantage. While catching up with the football, he raised his left leg and made a gesture to pass the ball to the middle. After deceiving the Cairo player who came up to defend him to shift his center of gravity, his left foot only made a feint.
, circled back behind the football, used the instep of the outside of the foot to push the football straight out, and then accelerated!
Before the opponent player could turn around again, he was already passing by like the wind!
"Really fast! Peng Weijun's speed is really fast! This is also his advantage!"
The cheers at the scene became louder and louder, and Peng Weijun ran faster and faster - every time he caught up with the football, he would immediately run ten meters away, and then use his own speed to chase the ball again.
It was such a simple, non-technical approach, but the Cairo players couldn't stop it - they couldn't catch up with Peng Weijun who was running wild!
Therefore, the Cairo center back was very smart. Instead of directly stopping Peng Weijun, he ran diagonally across and finally stopped Peng Weijun near the baseline.
Under his pressure, Peng Weijun made a pass that hit his outstretched leg and hit the bottom line.
Won a corner kick for South China Tigers.
The picture was frozen here, and then began to play backwards quickly.
When the replay finally stopped, the scene was frozen after the Cairo man intercepted the ball from the South China Tigers on his left.
From the broadcast perspective, you can clearly see the position of the South China Tigers players on the field.
Three defenders can be linked into a line.
Then there was an empty space on the left side of the defense line, which was also the right side of the Cairo people's attack, and the connection ended abruptly there, like a dead end road that had not yet been repaired, which was very abrupt.
"Peng Weijun's position was too advanced. After we lost the ball, he didn't return to defense in time..."
"Maybe he was imagining that his teammate could intercept the ball and counterattack, so that he could take advantage of the situation and press forward."
"This is the instinct of an offensive player..."
In the conference room, the coaches of the South China Tigers were discussing Peng Weijun's performance.
Although there was some debate, in the end they came to a unified conclusion:
"Peng Weijun is more accustomed to being a left winger. The left midfielder is the last limit of his position. If he is allowed to play left back, then his side will definitely be the opponent's key attack direction. Therefore, it is not recommended to start him in the next game.
Playing at left back."
After Qin Lin heard the conclusions compiled by the coaching staff, he did not speak immediately, but fell into silence.
Obviously, the conclusions given by the coaches conflicted with his own thoughts, otherwise there was no need for him to remain silent, he could just have agreed.
Seeing Qin Lin like this, the coaches looked at each other - the head coach was really considering letting Peng Weijun be the starting left back?!
At the left back position, the main force of the Lingnan South China Tigers has always been former international player Qu Lu. The current substitute is Yang You, a defensive all-rounder who can play both left back and center back.
"I don't think the problem is big." Qin Lin finally expressed his thoughts.
"Qu Lu is also a full-back who is stronger in offense than defense. And now that he is older, he often has trouble coming back. This should be easily solved by Peng Weijun. After all, Peng Weijun's
The speed is fast enough and the physical fitness is no problem.”
"But... we are facing the Champions League champions, so we should focus on defense..." the assistant coach hesitated and said, and other coaches also nodded slightly to express their agreement.
Qin Lin smiled: "Yes, we are facing the Champions League champions, so if we focus on defense... can we defend it?"
A group of people looked at each other.
The answer to this question is obvious:
Can't keep it.
Judging from the strength comparison between the Pirates and the South China Tigers, even if the South China Tigers placed three buses in front of the goal, they would not be able to stop the Pirates' attack.
The main reason is that the pirates have very efficient killers like Hu Lai.
No one knows his little brother better than Qin Lin.
He may have one chance in the entire game and seize it.
As for the South China Tigers, all coaches cannot guarantee that their players will not make a single mistake in the entire game.
"So I think the thing is very simple. We should not consider defensive issues, but should think of ways to create more threats to the Pirates. In terms of tactical arrangements, we should be more active and bold, or even more radical, so that everyone can
We all work hard. Although this may cause us to lack physical fitness in the second half of the game, it is the only way to cause trouble for the Pirates."
Qin Lin expressed all his thoughts.
"For this reason, in terms of personnel selection, I prefer to let Peng Weijun start. He is faster and has better physical fitness. When we counterattack, he will have more sprint space than when playing as a winger. In this way
It can also maximize his advantages. Just like this ball."
Qin Lin pressed the play button again, and everyone watched Peng Weijun's highlight moments in the previous game again.
Because there is enough sprint space, he can increase his speed to the extreme without restraint.
"Some people used to compare Peng Weijun and Chen Xingyi, because they both move on the left wing and are very fast. But in fact, they are completely different. Chen Xingyi is fast because of the combination of man and ball. And Peng Weijun...
...Honestly, he just runs fast."
Qin Lin analyzed it for everyone.
"So if you don't give him enough space, his speed advantage won't be used."
The coaches did not hesitate this time and all nodded in agreement.
Peng Weijun is their player, and they train together all day, so naturally they know what his characteristics are.
"So if you let him retreat and give him more space to sprint, he will be able to perform better. As for defense... He is quick to chase back, which can be regarded as a defensive advantage. He also has a good attitude and is willing to defend.
Of course, we must let him practice more defense in the remaining few days, mainly to find his defensive position. As long as he can maintain the formation, he won't be too bad."
Everyone looked at each other again, and finally the assistant coach nodded: "Okay, let's try it."
