On the same day that the Chinese team entered the stage with great success, Nigeria won a thrilling 3:2 victory with one goal in the match against Argentina. They stumbled but were extremely tenacious and also stood on this stage. This was the first time after the two teams.
The second meeting after meeting in the group stage.
After the match against Burkina Faso, the Chinese team was determined to continue to implement the existing tactics. The experience of defeating Nigeria in the group stage also made the Chinese team need not panic. After all, the tactics had just been proposed at that time.
came out, and after three games with the French team, the Australian team, and the Burkina Faso team, this style of play became increasingly perfect and mature.
After the Chinese team's tactics became increasingly mature, the Nigerian team finally realized the truth behind the defeat in the group stage: The Chinese team was not a chaos, but a deliberate tactical choice! In other words, it was a controlled "chaos". That's where it happened.
This chaotic situation caused the Nigerian players to lose the execution of tactical disciplines and turn them into individual battles. In other words, the Chinese team used its own controlled "chaos" to contaminate Nigeria and turned it into an out-of-control "chaos"!
For Nigeria, it is no longer important whether the Chinese team deliberately created this kind of chaos to seduce the natural-born domestic players to fight alone. In the four consecutive games, the Chinese team played in the same style and became increasingly powerful. The final was absolutely
They will not change their playing style, so what Nigeria has to do is learn from the experience and lessons learned from the last game, resolutely implement tactical disciplines, and never allow it to be misled by the superficial chaos of the Chinese team again!
Damn the Chinese team, so cunning!
But even so, the Nigerian coaching staff is not reassured, because they are not sure whether they can win against the Chinese team's style of play by just sticking to their own tactics. On the one hand, the Chinese team's style of play is not sure.
The law is crazy, and any accidents are possible. On the other hand, the Chinese team's playing style is still improving and perfecting. The tactical level in the finals is definitely different from that in the group stage. And Nigeria did not have any in the group stage.
A real systematic confrontation with the Chinese team.
Therefore, if Nigeria wants to win, it must not only stick to its own style of play, but also work hard to destroy the Chinese team's style of play... The Chinese national team has also thought of this, but is unable to determine what method the opponent will use to destroy its lineup. Australia
I tried a full-court press, but the effect was very poor. In addition to the strength gap between the two teams, a full-court press was equivalent to giving up my own tactical play. It was too passive and completely followed the baton of the Chinese team.

Three days later, at the Crawford Stadium in Port of Spain, Argentina faced Burkina Faso in the third and fourth place finals. Although more than 20,000 spectators came to the scene, Argentina was still listless and unmotivated.
In the end, Burkina Faso won 2:0.
At 17:30 in the afternoon on September 30, 2001, facing the cool Caribbean sea breeze, Crawford Stadium was packed with spectators. A conservative estimate was that there were more than 25,000 spectators. The entire capital of Trinidad and Tobago,
Almost a quarter of the population came! Important officials from the Trinidad and Tobago government, the Vice President of FIFA, the head of the Youth Football Committee, etc. also appeared on the opening stage, and even the two countries’ ambassadors to Trinidad and Tobago.
Head of Foreign Service in Nida and Tobago.
Compared with other teams, the audience is more curious about the special Asian champion of the Chinese national youth team. In the World Junior Championships, which is dominated by white Europeans and black Africans, a yellow team is still a team that never lacks in the game.
A team with exciting scenes is destined to attract more attention and be sought after, and its commercial appeal makes FIFA happy.
After a brief closing ceremony, the Nigerian and Chinese teams entered the venue one after another.
Today's referee is Cardoso Batista from Portugal. Interestingly, this smiling referee also officiated the group match between China and Nigeria.
Wang Ai and Brown, the captain of the Nigerian team, greeted the referee, shook hands, and returned to the sidelines after guessing the side. The World Junior Championship championship trophy has been solemnly placed on the sidelines, looking forward to its owner lifting it up.
At 18:00 sharp, Batista blew the whistle to start the game.
The finals have begun!
In the Chinese team's tactical vision, they will try to launch a surprise attack at the beginning of the game. If it succeeds, it will be great. If it does not succeed, it can also measure Nigeria's reaction. As the loser of the group stage, it has a "backward advantage."
Targeted arrangements can be made for the winner's play style, while China, as the winner, can only guess out of thin air.
Therefore, it will also be beneficial for the Chinese team to figure out the opponent's arrangement as early as possible.
Nigeria kicked off first. The midfielder took a big kick and was caught by Zhou Haibin. He passed the ball diagonally to Guo Liang on the wing. Guo Liang passed the ball directly to midfielder Yin Liangyi from the wing. Yin Liangyi gave the ball to him according to the pre-match tactical arrangement.

As soon as Wang Ai got the ball, Nigerian midfielder Oppa came up to intercept it. Wang Ai made an easy fake move to deflect the passing angle. Just as he was about to take off, he felt a strong force coming from his shoulders, and he staggered two steps to the side involuntarily.
Even when his body suddenly lost control, with his good sense of the ball and keen reaction, Wang Ai did not lose the ball. After passing the ball to Bai He, Wang Aicai looked at Oppa in surprise. In the last game, he was
His opponent is not so aggressive.
Wang Ai looked at the stadium and found that Chen Tao was treated similarly to himself. There was also a player following him, harassing him all the time.
After a while, Wang Ai tried again, and this time it was even worse. Wang Ai was knocked out of the field by Oppa on the wing. Wang Ai was 100% sure that the opponent was using such direct and frequent physical attacks.
Collide to interfere with the normal operation of the Chinese team’s frontcourt attacking core!
Is it a foul? Of course it’s a foul this time, but it’s not worth taking out the card! After all, Nigeria didn’t stamp or stamp on it, and it wasn’t even a malicious collision. It was just on the edge of a normal body collision, or it was a body collision without sparing any force.
They just stopped and continued to use their strong bodies to interfere with the Chinese team's organization!
This has found the destiny of the Chinese national junior player! Even if the Portuguese referee gave the foul without hesitation, it will not help. Even the Nigerian player who committed the foul will take the initiative to reach out and pull up the Chinese national junior player who was knocked to the ground... Can't
You can't send off a card. Faced with Nigeria's strong personal strength, the Chinese team's other midfielders and frontcourt players cannot replace Wang Ai and Chen Tao.
Wang Ai is confident that he can get rid of all the defenders of the youth team with his own skills, but the premise is that the opponent is coming for the ball. If the opponent is coming for people, no matter how agile Wang Ai is, he will not be able to dodge them all.
Unless...no ball rights!
But having reached this point, how could Wang Ai be willing to give up the results of the collective hard work of all his teammates?
The Chinese national team's once invincible tactical system of light troops and sudden attack encountered the problem of system confrontation for the first time. The Nigeria team fully exploited its advantages of strong physical fitness and average age, sacrificing two midfielders to strangle it.
The frontcourt threat maker of the Chinese team, the Chinese team's frontcourt and frontcourt are facing the threat of being cut in half!
