The final of the 2011 Asian Cup will be between Japan and China's Hong Kong team.
Whether a new Asian champion will emerge, but as the China Hong Kong team advances all the way, many voices of doubt are also rising at the same time.
First of all, the composition of the China Hong Kong team. Except for a few Hong Kong players, the main players in the team are all naturalized players. Even Li Yu is suspected of being a naturalized player. Of course, China Hong Kong and China are one and the same. Li Yu’s nationality
The problem is not the point.
The key point is that the other main players, such as Muric and Konka, are all naturalized players despite being very good.
Furthermore, Asian countries, especially East Asian teams, are afraid that the oil countries in West Asia will follow the example of the China Hong Kong team and use gold and dollars to recruit a team of naturalized players to compete.
Now many football associations from Asian countries have come forward to express their opinion that limiting the number of naturalized players can play, just like there are restrictions on foreign players.
However, there is a prerequisite for the so-called naturalized players, that is, they must have the nationality of the national team they represent. If they have nationality, why should they limit the number of players?
Anyway, FIFA has no relevant regulations and will not issue similar regulations.
The sound came out, but it did not affect the China Hong Kong team's preparations.
In fact, everyone knows it well. If you can't eat the grapes and say the grapes are sour, if you can't beat them, why don't you let others complain?
You still need to train!
Li Yu's ability is almost unmatched in Asia. Although Japan's midfield and frontcourt can be compared with second-rate European teams, when it comes to the backcourt, Japan is still at the Asian level!
When meeting Japan, there was nothing to say. We must win. Although Li Yu didn't say it out loud when facing the media, he knew very well in his heart, "You can't let little Japan win the championship, at least you can't take it away in your own hands!"
"
Football matches should not have other colors, but Li Yu has been familiar with the harm that Japan has done to China since he was a child. In any case, as a Chinese, he must put in all his efforts to win Japan. Li Yu still has this awareness.
of.
The 2011 Asian Cup final officially started at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha, Qatar. The three-time Asian Cup champion Japan team faced the China Hong Kong team that reached the Asian Cup final for the first time.
The Chinese fans have been waiting for the start of the game early.
The Asian finals can attract so much attention. Without the contribution of Chinese fans, the data would not be so good.
As expected of a country with a large population, paying attention to one game can break the viewing record of previous finals.
It can be seen at the scene that except for the Japanese fans who came here specially, the remaining Chinese fans and local cartel fans all support the Chinese Hong Kong team.
Where does Li Yu's popularity lie?
Regardless of popularity, if you just look at the goals, you have to support Li Yu!
Not long after watching the game, people realized how lucky they were to be able to watch the game. Li Yu was in surprisingly good condition. It was obvious that Li Yu played very seriously in today's game, constantly dropping back to midfield to help.
Team defense.
Li Yu's retreat does not mean that the offense is weak.
In the first 5 minutes, Li Yu set the tone for the game with a world-wide kick.
"Oh my god, this is not a power that humans can exert!"
"In the camera, we can all seem to see the air driven by the football. How powerful it is!"
Japanese goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima felt the most direct. He never imagined that the ball could be so fast. Before the game, coach Zaccheroni repeatedly emphasized that he should pay attention to Li Yu's long-range shot and pay attention to what happened. He was frightened at first when he heard the sound.
One jump and no further reaction is complete. All we can do is pray that the ball will fly away and not be within the goal range.
Hit the door frame!
Kawashima Eiji has only scored one goal, and he can feel a lot of sweat flowing out of his hands under the protection of his gloves. Can you not be nervous? If the shot is within the goal range, the ball will go in!
Keisuke Honda, who was still clamoring before the game, lowered his proud head. The strength of his feet and head was so different that there was no comparison.
Japanese players have never been known for their strength. Keisuke Honda said before the game that he was the best offensive player in the world.
How ironic it is now. Compared with the self-confidence emperor Keisuke Honda and Li Yu, the two are really not the same level of players. What kind of team is Manchester United, and what kind of team is CSKA Moscow.
"Didn't score, but look at the Japanese goalkeeper's expression, haha, he seems to have completely lost confidence in Li Yu's shot!"
Just as the commentator said, Li Yu's shots in this game were all domineering shots. With enough strength, Li Yu's shots were something that ordinary goalkeepers could react to.
1:0!
It was Li Yu who scored the goal, blasting the goal like the reincarnation of Hercules, and finally pried open the door to Japan.
It looks so simple, yet so powerful!
What a powerful conquest, this might be it!
Zaccheroni had no idea that today's Li Yu had completely changed his style from the previous games. He was all about hard work, playing with body and strength. What the Japanese team couldn't do was precisely these things!
Who can restrain Li Yu? Look at the arena, who is there?
No matter how hard you look, you can't find the answer. No one can resist Li Yu!
what to do?
Are you going to surrender your gun?
Zaccheroni used to be more conservative, but today he can no longer be conservative. The more conservative he is, the more goals he concedes. This is how this scene ended. He was right before the game. Whoever attacks is more dangerous.
Coming to the sidelines, Zaccheroni kept urging the players to attack. It was rare to see such an open and open game in the Asian Cup final. Neither team was conservative.
Li Yu's favorite rhythm of the game appears, both sides attack!
Japan's pass-through attack was slow and slow, but the China-Hong Kong team's attack was a fatal sneak attack.
There is no way, the Japanese team's offense is to press forward with the whole team, use the pass, find the opponent's loopholes in the pass, and strive to score.
Anyone on the Japanese team can be an attacker, and anyone can be a passer.
On the contrary, the China Hong Kong team is simpler. The arrow is Li Yu. If there is a ball, give it to Li Yu. Eriksen's tactics are extremely simple. Is it simple? Without a player with such strong personal strength as Li Yu to dominate the formation, he will fight again and again if he wants.
No!
Soon 2:0!
The Japanese team suffered another heavy blow. Their attack was ineffective. Instead, Li Yuzai directly passed the goalkeeper in the counterattack and succeeded in pushing the shot into the empty goal.
"It's too simple. This game is not like a final, but more like a group stage!"
"I can't stop it! The Japanese players can't keep up with Li Yu. The key player in this game is Li Yu!"
Chinese fans, don’t be too excited. In the past, there was no Korean phobia, but Japanese phobia. Now it seems that Japan may be very likely to suffer from Japanese phobia after the game!
It’s so frustrating, the goal is so beautiful, the goalkeeper is just a decoration!
Of course, Chinese fans hope to score a few more!
Li Yu did not disappoint people's expectations, and the goals will not stop!
3:0!
At the end of the Asian Cup final, all three goals were scored by Li Yu, and the hat trick was actually given to Japan. There were several opportunities to score four goals, but Li Yu failed to seize them.
In the end, the Golden Boot Award of this Asian Cup was undoubtedly won by Li Yu of China Hong Kong. Li Yu scored 11 goals in 6 games of China Hong Kong. No one had any competition with Li Yu.
It seems that this Asian Cup Golden Boot was tailor-made for Li Yu from the beginning.
At the same time, Li Yu also broke the scoring record in the history of the competition. The Golden Boot winner in this competition also reached double digits for the first time.
As for the MVP of the tournament, is there any need to talk about it?
Of course, it was Li Yu who won. In every match played by the China Hong Kong team in this competition, Li Yu scored, with an average of close to 2 goals, and the China Hong Kong team would also score at least 3 goals.
What a terrifying attack power!
The joining of Li Yu gives China Hong Kong the offensive power of a world-class team. As long as the overall strength does not exceed that of too many world-class teams, no one will get anything good from China Hong Kong.
The facts of the World Cup have also proven this. Returning to the Asian arena, the China Hong Kong team is almost invincible. With Li Yu, there is no need to worry about scoring fewer goals in the Asian arena.
The Asian Cup is over, which means January has passed.
Li Yu will not return to Hong Kong with the team to celebrate. Even the simple celebration held at the hotel, Li Yu did not attend. He has to rush back to the UK and return to Manchester United as soon as possible.
In fact, Ferguson is actually unwilling to let Li Yu go. Park Ji-sung can leave, but Li Yu is obviously much more important than Park Ji-sung, because there is no substitute in the Manchester United team, and no one can. Li Yu is not only the goal guarantee for the China Hong Kong team,
It is also the offensive guarantee of Manchester United.
Looking at the recent results of games against weak teams, people found that after leaving Li Yu, Manchester United won some weak teams that were at the bottom of the points, and their offense seemed very weak. It is a bit worrying to score points!
There are physical issues, but relatively speaking, Manchester United's Christmas schedule is relatively easy. Two games have been postponed, leaving enough time for the Manchester United players to adjust to their physical condition.
Manchester United visited White Hart Lane this round and drew 0-0 with Tottenham in an unfavorable 10-on-11 situation. The unbeaten season was extended. After the game, Ferguson refused to comment on the red card shown to Rafael by referee Dean.
.
"I don't need to talk about this, you can go and see it yourself, I don't need to comment on the referee, it's beyond my boundaries to do this now, thank God."
Today's game against Tottenham is the 600th game that Manchester United's 37-year-old veteran Giggs has played for Manchester United in the top league. Ferguson was full of praise for his beloved disciple. "Giggs is an incredible player and a true idol.
, he sets an example for other players."
Ferguson also specifically praised Manchester United's defense, "This is a very difficult game. Tottenham are in good condition, but they really didn't get many chances against us. We are very confident. I think they played particularly well."
.This is a game that we hope to win, so we must stay focused. Our defensive line performed very well today and they maintained a high degree of concentration."
"You need to win those two make-up games. We have to play Chelsea at the beginning of March, which is a decisive game. Soon, we will go to Blackpool with a good form. Just like me a few times
As I said last week, this could be an exciting end to the season. All the top five teams have a chance to win it. Spurs are not out."
Tottenham coach Harry Redknapp believed that referee Dean's red card decision on Rafael was "harsh". He also believed that the central defenders of both sides performed well. "The defenses of both sides performed well, especially the four central defenders.
.Both sides got very few chances. Manchester United has won the Champions League, they have played many key games, and they have dominated Europe with a solid defense. They are a team that is difficult to beat. When they only have 10 men left
When we fight, we can't open the game up any more."
In addition, Lao Lei also talked about Beckham's loan, "Beckham must return to the United States in February, and there is no time (to sign on loan). This is a very regrettable thing."
Although it was a draw, Manchester United, which had two games in hand, still beat Manchester City to occupy the top spot.
On January 23, Manchester United faced Birmingham at home. Compared with the starting lineup that drew 0-0 with Tottenham in the last round of away games, Sir Alex Ferguson made three changes in the starting lineup. O'Shea and Smalling
and Anderson replaced Rafael, Ferdinand and Fletcher respectively. In this campaign, O'Shea and Anderson's performance was excellent, while Smalling was also quite satisfactory.
Since the 2-2 home draw with West Bromwich Albion in October last year, including this game, Manchester United has achieved 8 consecutive wins at home in the Premier League. The super home winning rate is also the reason why Manchester United can firmly remain the leader.
Cost. Unlike Arsenal who have lost 11 points at home in the league this season after losing to newly promoted West Bromwich Albion, Newcastle and Tottenham, and drawing with Manchester City, Manchester United has won 12 points at home in the Premier League this season.
11 wins and 1 draw is excellent, only losing 2 points at home.
This season, Manchester United has advanced in the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup. In the Premier League, Manchester United is the leader with obvious advantages; in the Champions League group stage, Manchester United was unbeaten in the group and qualified as the first place. In the first round of the knockout round, they will face the defending French champions.
Champion Marseille; the FA Cup also advanced to the next round after successfully defeating Liverpool. Facing the underdog Southampton away, Manchester United did not seem to give up at all.
Last summer, Manchester United brought in striker Hernandez from Guadalajara, Mexico, for 10 million pounds, and Bibby from Vitoria Guimares in Portugal for 7.4 million pounds, but Smalling was brought in for 10 million pounds.
In fact, they are players signed in the winter transfer window last season and are not included in this season's signing funds.
In terms of leaving the team, Ferguson sold Foster for 6 million pounds, Tosic for 8 million pounds, and Cathcart for 500,000 pounds. In this way, Manchester United spent a net of 2.9 million pounds on the transfer market last summer.
.As for Lindegaard, who was introduced for 3.4 million pounds this winter, he has not played in an official game on behalf of Manchester United so far, so his impact can basically be ignored.
Looking at the other nine giants in Europe, the amount of investment last summer only ranked fourth from the bottom. Real Madrid spent a net of 68 million euros on signings last summer, Juventus spent a net of 41.1 million euros; AC Milan spent a net of 24 million euros; Chelsea spent a net of 24 million euros.
19.7 million pounds; Arsenal made a net profit of 13.4 million pounds; Barcelona made a net profit of 8.5 million euros; Liverpool made a net profit of 1.6 million pounds; Bayern made a net profit of 5.72 million euros; Inter Milan made a net profit of 37 million euros. Under such a low-investment and small-capacity operation, Manchester United can
Achieving such results today is simply unbelievable and even surprises hundreds of millions of Red Devils fans around the world.
If they can defeat Blackpool away from home in the make-up match next Tuesday, Manchester United will be 5 points ahead of Arsenal; and in the goal difference competition, Manchester United will not fall behind. If they beat Blackpool, they will be at least 4 points ahead of Arsenal.
goal difference.
This season, in the 28 most important games of the Premier League + Champions League, Manchester United has remained unbeaten, which makes many teams very unconvinced. Many people in the industry are also puzzled. Tottenham coach Harry Redknapp believes that
, "Manchester United can definitely be beaten and there will probably be more than one team beating them."
Although only Denmark goalkeeper Lindegaard has arrived for Manchester United in this winter transfer market, Ferguson confirmed that Valencia, the absolute main force last season, will return in one month.
"We will see what happens to Leo on Monday morning and we won't make a decision until then. Carrick's foot is very sore and that's where Gerrard tackled him, so he can't continue.
.Valencia is making good progress now, he has cleared the danger signal from the doctor and is now
It's under our full control, which is great news. He's already starting a running program and doing physiotherapy every day, which is a big step. He'll probably be back with the first team at the end of February, so that's
This is a great benefit for us, and we are all looking forward to this day coming soon."
In the next league, Manchester United will play against Villa at home, Wolves away, Manchester City at home, Wigan away, and until early March they will challenge Chelsea and Liverpool away.
It is too early to discuss whether Manchester United can win the championship with a brilliant unbeaten record in the season, but it can at least be discussed whether Manchester United can still maintain an unbeaten league season before March arrives.
The famous betting company William Hill can no longer sit still. They have offered odds of 1 to 12 for Manchester United to be unbeaten in the season, betting that Manchester United will repeat the unbeaten myth of Arsenal in the 2003-04 season. It is not the same as Arsenal in 03-04.
Compared with the same period in the losing season, Manchester United is still 4 points behind. In the 03-04 season, Arsenal had 15 wins and 7 draws after 22 rounds, reaching 52 points; while Manchester United this season has 13 wins, 9 draws and 48 points after 22 rounds.
point.
In the 2003-04 unbeaten season, Arsenal only used 22 players in the league, while Manchester United had already used 27 players in the league after 22 rounds. This does not mean that this Manchester United team is better than that Arsenal team.
The bench is deep, but it shows that Manchester United has many people who can still compete.
Ferdinand believes that Manchester United's lineup is the strongest in the entire Premier League. There are two or even more people competing for the starting spot in each position. This is of course a good thing for Manchester United; but for opponents,
It must be a very difficult thing to say, because in a long league, having a solid lineup will give you a psychological advantage in competing with championship opponents.
