Chapter 82 Central Asian Wolves

(one)

Under the mediation of Hong Kong Football Association President Fok Chun-lin and the organizing committee, Xiao Zhange also received an even more unexpected treatment. At 19 o'clock in the evening on November 9, Xiao Zhange will wear the jersey of the Hong Kong team as the "entry"

"Players hold hands with ball boys", holding Chen Zhuo's hand and walking into Huadu Stadium.

This ceremony started at the 1998 World Cup in France. It had not been held before the 1996 European Cup. Later, FIFA stipulated that in order to let the concept of football be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, all international top football events and some important football matches must bring

Caddies are allowed to enter, regardless of gender. Therefore, the ceremony of the caddy holding hands with the players when they appear has been fixed.

The regional flag is the Bauhinia flag. As a special administrative region, when the national anthem is played, the national anthem of the Hong Kong team is also the "March of the Volunteers". Xiao Zhan stood in front of Chen Zhuo, put his right hand on his left chest, and sang the national anthem solemnly.

After participating in the entrance ceremony, Zhan Song was sent to the stands by security personnel. Together with Zhan Hong and Xiaomeng, he sat in the middle of the Hong Kong Star Football Team. As a "special guest", Chen Zhuo was also introduced to the audience during the live broadcast on Hong Kong TV.

The younger brothers and sisters also made the audience feel very warm.

Uzbekistan was a member of the AFC after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991. When they first appeared in Asia, they were "amazing". It was the 1994 Asian Games in Hiroshima. The Uzbek team won six consecutive games for the first time in the Asian Games.

, defeated South Korea 1:0 in the semi-finals, and defeated the Chinese team 4:2 in the final, stunningly winning the championship. However, that was also their only championship. Since then, they have drifted away from the Asian champions.

Kasimov, the head coach of Uzbekistan who shook hands with Baggio with a humble smile, was the main player of the 1994 Hiroshima Asian Games championship team, and the "golden decade" of Uzbekistan from 1994 to 2004 was exactly in 1970

Born under the leadership of Kasimov.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union and becoming a separate member of FIFA and AFC, Uzbekistan's international ranking was only 110th. In the ten years from 1994 to 2003, Uzbekistan's professional football league was also in turmoil. Zico and Scalari

They all once coached in the Uzbekistan League. In 2003, Uzbekistan's international ranking reached its highest point of 43rd, ranking among the top three in Asia.

However, after a group of old players such as Kasimov retired, Uzbekistan has been in a state of inactivity. Although it can enter the final top ten stages of every World Cup qualifier, it always misses the chance and has never been able to enter the World Cup.

In the competition circle, by September 2010, the Uzbekistan football team's international ranking had dropped to 101st.

After retiring, Kasimov has been serving as an assistant coach for the Uzbekistan national team and the Olympic team. After another failure in the top ten games in 2009, the former head coach Hellanov resigned, and Kasimov was appointed as Uzbekistan's new coach.

Head coach of Stan national team and Olympic team.

As an integral part of the former Soviet football team, the Uzbekistan team fully inherited the characteristics of Soviet football in terms of team style. In terms of personal abilities, Uzbekistan’s players are not outstanding, but they are very determined to implement the head coach’s intentions. The whole team’s style

Fierce, well-trained like a mechanized force, moving quickly, and always maintaining an orderly formation.

In terms of tactical characteristics, Uzbekistan often uses defensive counterattack tactics in front of strong teams. Their shooting efficiency is relatively high. The best tactic is to use the space between the opponent's flat back lines to push the ball forward with a fast start speed.

The forward players rush behind the opponent's center back and attack the opponent's center, often using the most direct method to create one-on-one goals.

In addition to quick counterattacks, the use of set kicks to open up situations is also an important scoring method for Uzbekistan. To sum up, long pass counterattacks, set kicks and fierce sieges constitute Uzbekistan's "three axes".

(three)

In terms of style, Uzbekistan is closer to the style of European teams. In preparation for the Asian Games this time, Baggio also regarded Uzbekistan as the most important opponent. Vicenza, Birmingham, and Hamburg are all defensive counterattacks.

In preparation for this European training camp, Baggio also regarded these warm-up opponents as the "enhanced version" of Uzbekistan.

In the original plan, Baggio's conservative estimate was to tie with the United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan. By fighting against the Bangladesh team, he would get the right to qualify by finishing second in the group or third in the group with the four best results.

After all, this is a team that has not qualified for the Asian Games in 52 years. Even though there are five "European players" joining the team, Baggio still does not dare to overdo it. There is always no harm in being more cautious and prudent.

Most of the Uzbekistan team's players come from their domestic leagues. After watching some collected video tapes of Uzbekistan's domestic leagues, Baggio believes that the Uzbekistan league is even worse than the Chinese Super League, and the K-League, J.

The league is even more incomparable.

And Uzbekistan is the same as China. There is a lack of system in youth training, lack of basic skills, irritable character and ups and downs. These are the problems that almost all their players have, including their goalkeeper!

Uzbekistan has always been accustomed to playing a four-back system. Baggio carefully studied their two central defenders and found that these two central defenders have strong individual defensive capabilities, but their awareness of assisting defense and covering up defense and switching positions is poor. It is possible that

The opponent used flexible interspersed movements to penetrate the entire back line of defense!

Moreover, their left back also has distinct advantages and disadvantages. He is fast and has strong assist ability, but he is very defensive and likes to commit fouls. He often receives red and yellow cards in the league. For the Hong Kong team with Chen Zhuo, this left back is simply Hong Kong.

The team's undercover agents were deployed in Uzbekistan!

In the midfield, Uzbekistan is accustomed to a midfield combination of two midfielders and two wings, which is also in line with their defensive counterattack and fierce siege tactical system.

Long balls are usually the source of Uzbekistan's counterattacks.

In terms of forwards, the 32-year-old Shatskikh, who is 1.87 meters tall, is Uzbekistan’s number one star. He has played for Dynamo Kyiv for 10 years and won 6 crowns and 4 Asian Cups with the Ukrainian giants. He also played in the Champions League and UEFA Cup.

Both have experience in the competition, and have twice won the top scorer in the Ukrainian league. They were once considered to have taken over Shevchenko's gun.

However, Shatskih cannot be compared with the top forwards in Europe. He has poor ball control ability and average offensive ability with the ball. His ability to create opportunities is relatively weak. He relies more on the passing of teammates. He needs a strong

Only with the support of his attacking system can he take advantage of his keen sense of smell in front of the goal and his strong ability to grab points.

Just like Messi's performance in the Argentina team is far inferior to his performance in Barcelona, ​​Schatzkih's performance in the national team is also unsatisfactory, and Schatzkih's speed is average and is not suitable for anti-counterattack tactics.

However, it can exert its power in grabbing points in free kick tactics.

Another forward, the 23-year-old Nasimov, who plays for Kazan Ruby in the Russian League, is the speed forward in Uzbekistan's anti-counterattack tactics. He and Shatskih just form a "high team"

piece".

(Four)

For the drill in Uzbekistan, Baggio emphasized four key players. One was their forward No. 9 Nasimov, emphasizing not to let him run away. The second was midfielder Yeparov, who was like

Press him like Matar from the United Arab Emirates and prevent him from playing long passes calmly.

The third key point is their top star Shatskih. As long as the first two points are guarded, Shatskih's power will not be fully displayed in sports battles. When setting the ball, Chen Zhuo retreats and

Rong Aping and his team are attacking Shatskih together, which is enough to deal with him!

The first three focuses are on defense, and the fourth focus is to seize the weakness of the opponent's left back Denisov who commits many fouls, and let Ouyang Yaochong attack him from the wing.

Although they have won a victory, the Hong Kong team still played cautiously in this game. According to Baggio's arrangement, the first five minutes were still a test of the referee's law enforcement standards, but...

"Beep~~~" As Guo Jianbang rolled on the ground holding his legs in pain, the referee blew the whistle and showed the Uzbekistan team's right midfielder a yellow card. The game had only started for 3 minutes.

In the first five minutes of the game, Guo Jianbang, who is 1.69 meters tall, Ouyang Yaochong, who is 1.72 meters tall, and Zhai Tingfeng, who is 1.75 meters tall. Baggio mainly arranges offense and defense through these three, and they are one size larger than them in stature and size.

In front of the Uzbekistan players, under their fierce siege and "three axes", they were also thrown down like felled wooden stakes, which caused boos from the fans at the scene from time to time.

These are also the three shortest and thinnest players on the Hong Kong team. Apart from the three of them, the five European players are all over 1.80 meters tall. The tallest, Chen Zhaoqi, is 1.88 meters tall, and defensive midfielder Xu Deshuai is also 1.79 meters tall.

height.

The strategy is completely different from the previous game. In this game, facing Uzbekistan, which has a European style and a more powerful side, Baggio needs the referee's whistle to be "tighter"!

Originally, Baggio asked Huo Zhenlin to work through the Asian Organizing Committee, hoping to redraw the venue for this game. Since the length of 105 meters cannot be changed, he hoped to draw the width to ** meters, with both sides shortened inward.

2 meters, which can imperceptibly restrict Uzbekistan's long passes and wide-ranging side running tactics.

According to FIFA regulations, the width of the field in international competitions is within the standard range of ** to 75 meters, so reasonable use of the rules is also allowed!

It's just that we Chinese all know how troublesome it is to build something in our country. The most important thing is a bunch of procedures and approvals. The leaders have to deal with everything. It's troublesome to change things like this. In the end, Baggio's

Huo Zhenlin did his best to meet this requirement, but he was not able to meet it.

Then again, you can't give bribes or gifts just to change the line. In that case, the nature of the matter will change. If you can't do it, you have to give up. (To be continued.)
