Chapter 205 The Lord of the Rings (Act 4: Wandering)
After stabilizing the backcourt, the Chinese team started to launch an offensive. Dewey got two consecutive header opportunities. Unfortunately, under the harassment of his opponent, he either missed the header or lacked strength.
During the live TV broadcast, Liu Jianhong couldn't help but lamented: "We have too few kicking points in the Olympics and rely too much on set kicks."
"Set-kick tactics are originally a good tactic, but the premise is that regular combat must be powerful enough. I don't see any strong teams in the world putting set-kick tactics in the first order. This unconventional method has great limitations. If
It is said that when the opponent is not prepared, it can indeed have the effect of a sudden attack. For example, this was the case with Xiao Wang in the World Cup. He had never used it before, and he was very fierce when he appeared. But his last goal,
Everyone should have remembered that it is not a set kick. This shows that this kind of tactic that starts from a standstill will be difficult to be effective once the opponent is on guard, especially our commonly used header tactics. In comparison, any
It would be better if the ball hits the goal directly." Guest host Zhang Lu analyzed slowly.
"So Coach Zhang, do you think our opponents have studied us thoroughly, so it is getting harder and harder to score goals?"
"Yes, the Korean team should have studied the game more fully than us. You saw Dewey's two headers just now. Although he had a tacit understanding with his teammates and ran and moved the moment he released the ball, you
Notice that the opponent was not confused by his movements at all. They either followed him closely or had others to respond. Moreover, the opponent's goalkeeper made accurate judgments every time. No matter how powerful Dewey's header was, he could not find a missed opportunity for the opponent.
He can't comfortably head the ball when he has the chance. Under high-intensity harassment, even the world's number one center's shooting percentage will drop significantly, let alone a defensive player like ours."
Speaking of this, Zhang Lu paused: "This actually shows that the opponent knows Dewey's characteristics, such as his preferred shooting position, angle, landing point, etc., which is terrible. A few days ago, a friend told me
It is said that the future society is an information society. Although I am not sure what this thing means, at least from now on, the importance of information is fully reflected in this game. The other party has more information than us.
There is a lot of information and it is clear to our players and even our coaches.”
At this point, Zhang Lu stopped talking. The ancients said that if you know yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles. This principle still works in modern football matches. When everyone knows the opponent's roster and age, then continue to dig deeper to see who has the most information.
The one with more will have greater control over the game.
As for Zhang Lu’s deeper meaning, it depends on the understanding of the audience.
Compared with the South Korean team's efficiency in game preparation, the Chinese Olympic team is overstaffed. Although a team of more than ten people has been organized, there are some inexplicable people in it, such as "coordinators". The competition venue has already been decided, and the competition time
, check-in to the hotel, and the route of travel have already been well planned. On-site security and order maintenance are fully responsible for the Wuhan City. A large number of local police forces have also been mobilized, as well as countless enthusiastic Wuhan citizens. Such an event is organized by the Olympic Committee,
The qualifiers hosted by the AFC are all prepared with the strong support of Chinese officials. What do you need to coordinate? What can you really coordinate?
This kind of idle person actually has the names of "General Coordinator", "Deputy Chief Coordinator" and "Coordinator" and the division of labor between them. It is simply a modern version of "The Revealed Officialdom"! And this kind of arrangement
Sitting in rows, the gilding of the fruits is barely concealed, and the rancid smell makes people cover their noses.
Zhang Lu is actually well aware of these situations. He was born in the Beijing team and was a former teammate with Shen Xiangfu. He knows far more information than the average football commentator. However, due to reality, he cannot speak too clearly.
As Dewey's two attacks ended in vain, the Chinese team's difficult attack had to be suspended, and the situation on the field stabilized again. The Korean team's forward was frightened by Zhao Xuri's fierce style and had to try to avoid him.
, and the Chinese team was marked by a familiar opponent and had no good solution, so the situation became deadlocked. The two sides frequently destroyed each other in the midfield. The scene was intense, dull, ugly, and anxious.
The Chinese team was two goals behind and there was no hope of change. Even the reluctant gongs and drums in the stands seemed to have become hoarse.
In the 33rd minute of the game, center Lu Feng was injured again. This time he tried to use his sudden toughness to change the unfavorable offensive situation of the Chinese team. When he turned around to take the ball with his back, the opponent's No. 4 Park Yong-ho hit his knee on the side of the thigh.
.
Lu Feng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His body froze and he did not dare to move. He watched helplessly as the opponent destroyed the attack.
Later, with the help of his teammates, Lu Feng managed to move a few times. The pain was unbearable and his expression was painful. The team doctor rushed over and sprayed Yunnan Baiyao. Unfortunately, the injury was under the skin, so it was of no use at all and could only provide some comfort. Team doctor Shu Bo
Te knew very well that there was no cure for this kind of injury and could only be treated, unless an anesthesia needle was injected on site. However, the thigh was too important. He would not feel it after being anesthetized, and his movements would be severely deformed. He could not cope with the requirements of a football match.
Lao Shen shook his head helplessly and had no choice but to signal the fourth official to make a substitution for the Chinese team. This time, No. 13, who had been long-awaited by the fans, finally stood up from the bench, and the Wuhan Sports Center immediately became lively from the silence just now.
The voices of "Come on, Wang Ai" came out unevenly.
Lao Shen put his arm around Wang Ai's shoulders: "Originally I wanted to let you play in the second half, but in this situation, I don't need to say more. After you come on the court, pay attention to Park Longhao, the opponent's No. 4 full-back. He likes to intervene very much.
Go up, try to catch the gap behind him, and...be smart! There is still an hour left in the game."
Wang Ai's appearance boosted the morale of the Chinese team, but it also caused changes in the Korean team. Kim Ho-kun immediately stood on the sidelines and shouted into the court.
In the 36th minute of the game, as soon as Wang Ai came on the field, he received a big gift from the Korean team! At this time, he received a cross from Cao Yang on the wing and was about to break through with the ball. The opponent's No. 8 Kim Dou-hyun kept colliding with him from the side.
No. 4 Park Yong-ho turned half sideways to catch up with his breakthrough.
The more conservative method of Wang Ai's choice at this time is naturally to pass back, but that should not be Wang Ai's role, so he thought about breaking through the gap between the two, or continuing to break through along the wing from behind Park Yonghao who was half turned.
, just as he was actively making fake moves to get out of the attack route, Kim Doo-hyun suddenly fell down beside him and swept his thigh sideways, this time with the ball and others.
Wang Ai was caught off guard and had no choice but to jump up. At this time, Park Longhao, who was facing him, suddenly stopped, lowered his center of gravity slightly, and prepared to face the collision. Since Wang Ai was in mid-air, and there was another flash of lightning, he had no time to adjust, so he was caught by the collision.
He felt depressed, and his chest hit Park Yong-ho's shoulder, as if he had received a heavy hammer.
Wang Ai sat on the ground and took a full twenty seconds to catch his breath. In the subsequent games, the Korean team's midfielder and almost all the opposing players chased and intercepted Wang Ai. Although Wang Ai was often beaten in terms of speed,
Ai was thrown away, but their "closed-door tactic" of two-person cooperation was used extremely skillfully. Wang Ai was forced to reduce his personal possession of the ball. Although the Korean team also paid the price of a yellow card for this, they successfully
China's efforts to contain its biggest star also caused the Chinese team's newly revived morale to slowly sink again.
