In the following game, because both Ulsan Hyundai and Longteng played very cautiously, the scene became a bit boring. Most of the confrontations took place in the midfield, and the ball kept changing at the feet of both sides.
There was no good chance to score, and until the referee blew the whistle for the first half, the score of both sides was o:o.
During the halftime break, Zhang Sheng encouraged the players' performance, especially Xiao Yunfan's performance. Zhang Sheng specially praised Xiao Yunfan's performance: "Yunfan, you played very well in the first half, and you did a good job defensively on the wing.
You are very good, and you have also shown your own characteristics offensively. Continue to work hard in the second half and try to help the team score a goal. With your condition today, you still have a good chance. Bi QugeWw W. BiQuGe."
At the same time, Zhang Sheng also discovered the team's current weakness, which is the lack of physical fitness.
Since the start of the Chinese League, in just ten days, the Longteng team has played four games, three of which were away games, and the last two were consecutive away games. The players' physical energy consumption was very high. In the past,
The Longteng team, which has always been playing in the Chinese League A, has never experienced such high-intensity and high-density confrontations and games. Now the team's record of one win, two draws and one loss is the best performance the team can have now.
Fortunately, the team's physical fitness team did an excellent job before the season, and the players also did a good job in preparing their physical fitness. In addition, this is only the early stage of the league, and everyone can grit their teeth and endure it. If it is in the middle or middle of the league,
With such a schedule in the second half, the team may really collapse.
But the players are also having a hard time now. For example, during the halftime break, several players who run a lot because of tactical requirements appear to be very tired. Lin Feng is the most obvious example. As the Longteng team was playing in the midfield after Ivo was injured.
As a substitute player, Lin Feng must run constantly before and after the midfield. He must not only step forward to participate in the offensive organization, pass and receive the ball, but also return to the midfielder to join the defense. Zhang Sheng completely treats him as a B2B
The midfielder is used, and his ability to pass people at his feet is not enough, so he can only make up for it by running more, which is really difficult for him.
At this time, Lin Feng was sitting on a stool in the dressing room, rubbing his legs. He looked a little exhausted.
Zhang Sheng asked Lin Feng with concern: "How is it? How long can Lin Feng continue to play in the second half?"
Lin Feng did not insist on showing off, but answered very frankly: "If I still have to keep running up and down like this, I can only have the physical fitness for less than 15 minutes."
Zhang Sheng nodded, thought for a while and said: "Well, I also know that everyone has worked very hard during this period, especially Lin Feng, you have worked even harder. But the same is true for our opponents. Ulsan Hyundai also worked hard during these eleven days.
We have played four games in a short period of time, and they are not much easier than us. You have to try your best to persist for 20 minutes in the second half, and then I will replace you. Of course, if you can't persist, you must take the initiative to tell me not to show off on the court.
"
Lin Feng nodded and said: "Okay, coach. I am sure of my physical condition and will not drag down the team for the sake of performance."
Zhang Sheng nodded and said: "This is the best. After this game is over, we will have a week's buffer time when we return to China to play another league game. After all, the fourth round of the AFC Champions League will not be until April 1st.
The game has just started, and it’s our home court, so we can still have a good rest for a few days.”
Then Zhang Sheng stood up and encouraged everyone: "I know everyone is tired, but this is the process that a strong professional team and those strong professional players must go through. As long as everyone overcomes the difficulties, the difficulties will
Bow to us, otherwise we will kneel down to difficulties. In the struggle against difficulties, I hope that everyone will be a winner, not a loser."
At the same time, in Ulsan Hyundai's locker room, Cho Min-guk was making tactical adjustments. He said: "The opponent seems to be a difficult team. We underestimated the opponent a little in the first half. But I found one of their problems.
At the end of the first half, the players' running dropped a bit. This has always been a problem for the Chinese team. We have to make a fuss about their weakness. After the start of the second half, we need to strengthen the pressure and press to let their
Physical energy is consumed faster, so I will make adjustments for substitutions."
After hearing Cao Minguo's words, the players all sat up straight and waited for his deployment.
Cao Minguo started the roll call: "Rafinha, you replace Ryu Junsu. I want to say something about Ryu Junsu. Your performance in the first half was too reckless. You frequently fell to the ground to cheat free kicks and penalty kicks. It's not us.
The spirit that the players of the Republic of Korea should have. Facing defeated opponents like the Chinese team, we can definitely use our own ability to defeat them with dignity."
After saying this, Cao Minguo turned around and said to Rafinha: "Rafinha, their left wing did a good job in defending the full-backs. We don't have many opportunities. You focus on attacking the center of their left wing."
As for the defenders, their left center back McGowan is tall but slow to turn around, and the midfielders mostly use through balls to hit behind him."
After laying out this tactic, Cao Minguo continued: "This is our home court. We can't let the opponent take away points so easily. With the spirit of our Republic of Korea, we will work hard and work hard, and we will definitely be able to defeat them."
After the halftime break, Ulsan Hyundai's players obviously played smarter. They no longer directly hit Kim Shin-woo in the frontcourt with high balls, but used more ground passes to find opportunities. Correspondingly, Rafinha's
Playing on the field made their attack on the right wing sharper. He was able to find breakthrough opportunities while dribbling the ball, and at the same time, he could pass good balls to his teammates. The pressure on the Longteng team on the left wing suddenly became greater.
Zhang Sheng also noticed this phenomenon very keenly, but he still had to observe to see if Ulsan Hyundai had really given up on Kim Shin-wook's frontcourt fulcrum play, or if it was just a feint shot through the ground attack and then suddenly lobbed the ball into the penalty area.
inside.
After observing for a while, Zhang Sheng found that although Ulsan Hyundai did not give up the direct attack on Jin Xinyu, he did consciously strengthen the through ball on the ground. Zhang Sheng quickly gave McGowan a gesture to let him pay attention to the opponent's attack.
With the ball behind him, McGovern also nodded to show that he understood.
But compared to Ryu Junsu's recklessness in the first half, Rafinha not only performed well when he came on, but also activated Choi Daewook on the right.
As an 81-year veteran, Cui Duixu has very rich game experience. He was once the most trusted right midfielder when Hiddink coached the South Korean team, and was selected for the 2002 World Cup squad. He also served on the Olympic team.
During the period, he scored a hat trick against the world's top team Paraguay, and in 2004, he was transferred from Anyang LG to the new Korean K-League team Incheon United for a price of 1.1 billion won in 5 years. This is a free transfer in South Korea.
The highest net worth among the players.
This season, in order to strengthen the offensive power of the frontcourt, Ulsan Hyundai exchanged Choi Daewook from IFC. This veteran's performance is still very good. Now that Rafinha comes on the field, he is freed up by being good at running and cooperating.
come out.
In the 57th minute, he took advantage of Lin Feng's physical decline in the midfield to squeeze him away, and then hit a through ball directly into the penalty area. What he was looking for was Raphinha, who faced the incoming ball.
, turned around deftly to get rid of McGowan, but McGowan blocked Raphinha's turning route with his body, broke the ball and passed it to Lin Feng, who came to respond. At this moment, Raphinha suddenly fell down.
In the restricted area.
The referee Fahd Mari from Kartel also blew the whistle when Rafinha fell to the ground and whistled for a penalty kick.
Faced with this penalty, Zhang Sheng was very angry, because this was a very normal physical confrontation. Not only Zhang Sheng was angry, but the commentator Shao Shengyi was also very puzzled. He said: "Hey! This ball was actually called a penalty kick. Two
Everyone has their hands moving in the penalty area, but McGowan is just stronger. Nine out of ten referees will not call such a penalty kick. And it is so easy to give a penalty kick during the stalemate between the two teams.
It is very likely to determine the outcome of a game. It is difficult for people to understand this penalty."
But once a penalty kick is awarded, it is difficult to make changes. Rafinha has already begun to prepare to take the penalty kick himself. Rafinha did not waste this opportunity. His penalty kick deceived Zhou.
Wei shot into the goal, rewriting the score to 1:o, Ulsan Hyundai took the lead.
After losing the ball, Zhang Sheng decisively replaced Lin Feng and asked Tao Wentao to play. The meaning of this substitution was very clear. Let Kante alone be responsible for midfield defense and let Tao Wentao be responsible for organizing the offense. This is a clear enhancement.
The signal to attack.
Tao Wentao made an impact as soon as he came on the field. In the 63rd minute, Kante interrupted Rafinha's dribbling. Tao Wentao received the ball from Kante and suddenly started to advance forward in the midfield, with a deft kick at his feet.
Fried meatballs passed Jin Longtai, and then rushed in quickly. After losing the ball, Rafinha came over from behind and kicked Tao Wentao's foot. This tactical foul also earned Rafinha a yellow card.
After Tao Wentao came on the field, the Longteng team played very aggressively in the midfield. Tao Wentao also gave full play to his characteristic of being a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He was very daring to take the ball and dribble in the midfield. At this time, Zhang Sheng played another trump card.
He replaced Yu Bo with Ding Huaiyi and once again strengthened the attack on the left. This move really paid off.
In the 81st minute, Ding Huaiyi made a beautiful swing of the cow's tail from the left and completely shook Cui Duixu. Then he made a triangle pass in the midfield with Tao Wentao and Pato. Finally, Ding Huaiyi, who got the ball, made a
The action of shooting in front of the penalty area was a pick pass. After Wenkai pulled Park Donghyuk away, Pato suddenly entered the penalty area, leaving Jiang Minsu behind, and then volleyed the ball without waiting for it to land.
The volley hit the upper left corner and tied the score at 1:1.
The Dragon Team overcame difficulties and saved the situation. (To be continued.)
