The wonderful performances of Qin Minghao and Li Yun made domestic fans rejoice. A lot of fans who stayed up late to watch the game left messages online:
"So strong! He beat Valencia with two assists. Qin Minghao is my idol!"
"Li Yun is the real one. Before the game, Paco was praised to the sky. He is a Fm star and Villa is second. They are all scum in front of my brother Yun!"
"If we Chinese players had more players like this, we would still be worried about not being able to qualify for the World Cup. I think qualifying for the World Cup group would be no problem. "
"Sure enough, the products produced by Longteng must be high-quality! Qin Minghao and Li Yun told us that in the future, all the players of the national team will be selected from the Longteng team."
The domestic media have not let go of such good news materials, such as "Dragon Twin Stars Shine in Europe", "Assist and score twice, Qin Minghao conquers Red Bull fans", "One man can't open the door, ten thousand men can't open it, Li Yun helps the team seal a clean sheet in La Liga"
Reports of "Wealthy Family" flooded various media outlets.
Of course, not only the domestic media made a big splash, but various European sports media also reported on it. In particular, the outstanding performances of two young Chinese players, Qin Minghao and Li Yun, attracted the attention of many European clubs.
Nowadays, China's influence (money) in the world is growing. More and more European clubs hope to introduce Chinese players to open up the Chinese market. However, it is recognized that the level of Chinese players is low.
Yes, if it is just a simple business transaction to introduce Chinese players, the influence will not last long, but once Chinese players can strengthen business cooperation and improve the competitive level of the team, it will be different.
In addition, Qin Minghao and Li Yun have already demonstrated their strength and talent in the previous World Youth Championship. The combination of these factors has made European clubs interested in opening up the Chinese market take action one after another, and the Red Bull Club has also felt this.
There is a lot of pressure, because these interested clubs are far stronger than them in terms of reputation and real strength.
The boss of Red Bull Salzburg had to come out to refute the rumors: "Qin Minghao and Li Yun are our future core players and they are not for sale."
Facing the limelight of Qin Minghao and Li Yun, the players in the Longteng team were envious. At the same time, these two big brothers who had gone out gave them great encouragement-as long as they play the game well, the Longteng team can have countless talents.
This method will send you to Europe. Once you have such a skill, you may become as famous as the two of them in the future.
Zhang Sheng did not waste such a good opportunity to cheer up the whole team. Before the Longteng team started to face Shanghai SIPG on April 5, Zhang Sheng mobilized the whole team: "I think everyone also knows about that game.
The result. This game tells us that as long as we stick to the current way of playing, stick to the current training method, and go down step by step, I can guarantee you that once your ability reaches the standard of going to Europe, I will immediately
Let me go, I will do what I say."
Before this game, the media began to hype the concept of the youth army. Needless to say, the Longteng team has now become the benchmark for Chinese football youth training. A large number of outstanding young players have emerged in an endless stream and have contributed to the Chinese football national teams at all levels.
A lot of good players.
Before the Dragons officially became famous, Shanghai SIPG was the most famous youth team in the country.
After ten years of hard work in Chongming Island, the SIPG team under Xu Genbao finally entered China's top league in the 2o13 season, and a group of formidable young players also got the opportunity to show themselves. And with the "Civil and Military Outstanding"
The reputation of SIPG has skyrocketed, and the youth team of Shanghai SIPG has also set off a youth storm.
Wu Lei, who debuted on the stage of the top league for the first time and had high hopes before the season, not only did not disappoint, he even topped the local scorer list with 15 goals in the season, and he also scored three "hat tricks" in a single season.
Rewriting the history of Chinese players, Wu Lei was selected into the national team without any suspense due to his performance in the Chinese competition and became the backbone of the national football team in the future.
With Wu Lei as the core, supplemented by Lu Wenjun, Zhu Zhengrong's frontcourt attack combination also became the most powerful local weapon in the Chinese League that year. Although in the second half of the season, Lu Wenjun was reimbursed due to injury, and Zhu Zhengrong was also injured for a time.
Troubled, but "Wen Wu Zhengrong" still contributed 26 goals throughout the season, accounting for more than two-thirds of the SIPG team's total goals. This is definitely unique in the midfield where foreign aid forwards "run rampant".
In fact, behind the scenes of "civil and military majesty" destroying the city, SIPG's "green leaves" players also have many bright spots. As the captain of the first team, although Wang Shen's main position is left back, he is also the leader of SIPG.
A versatile chess piece in the tactical system, his comprehensive skills allow him to play as a defensive midfielder and full midfielder. Such a versatile player is rare in every team. In addition, as the main force of the team
As a defensive midfielder, Cai Huikang is also indispensable in sweeping and intercepting in the midfield. In the mid-season statistics list of that year, Cai Huikang's number of personal steals also ranked high on the list, which well explains the role of the midfield engineer, especially Genbao."
In the system of "rush, force, and surround", Cai Huikang's contribution cannot be ignored.
While individuals are outstanding, the SIPG team’s overall tactical play in the 2o13 season is also remarkable. From the perspective of the entire season, although there have been periodic adjustments in the offensive and defensive balance, the team “presses forward, receives passes and turns”
"The six-character policy has been implemented resolutely, which makes the Shanghai SIPG team's exquisite skills and cooperative style of play unique in the Chinese arena. It is not only admired by domestic famous coaches such as Marin and Shen Xiangfu, but also Lippi, Takeshi Okada and Sri Lanka.
Foreign and famous coaches like Tano also have high praise for SIPG's tactical play.
Later, some media also calculated the average age of Shanghai SIPG's various lines in the 2o13 season, and their youth also amazed the fans.
Even with Adu (1983) and Ivan (1979) on the defense line, the average age is over 30, but the other main players and rotation players have pushed the average age to 24 years old, especially the main goalkeeper Yan Junling, who is just 22 years old.
On the forward line, the two foreign players Dixon (1984) and Cabezas (1986) are not young anymore, but several substitute forwards have raised the average age to 22.8 years old.
In the midfield, the most powerful line of SIPG, Cai Huikang (1989), Wang Jiajie (1988)/Lv Wenjun (1989), Wu Lei (1991), Zhu Zhengrong (1988) are added to the main lineup.
The last group of rotation and substitute players even lowered the average age to 21.6 years old.
This means that the average age of Shanghai SIPG’s entire team is only 22.8 years old!
Although SIPG only finished ninth in the end and did not reach Xu Genbao's "631" goal, they were more hindered by funds. Several foreign forwards in the team only scored two goals in the entire season.
After the ball was recorded, a player who only played 5 times and had a record of zero goals after 8 games was forced to leave. The striker introduced in the second half of the season only scored 3 goals.
It can be said that SIPG last season was a team completely supported by domestic players.
Shanghai SIPG has played extremely well this season. In the first four games, they topped the list with an unbeaten record of 3 wins and 1 draw. They also swept their city rival Shanghai Shenxin 5:1. In this game
Previously, Shanghai SIPG had a three-game winning streak, which seemed to be even more powerful than Shanghai SIPG, which only won two consecutive victories once last season.
The emergence of Long Teng has made the Shanghai SIPG youth team's reputation fall by the wayside. Before the Long Teng team entered the Chinese Football Association, although the average age of their team was so low that countless fans were stunned, they were not in the Chinese Football Association at that time.
The league level and reputation are not enough for them to be compared with Shanghai SIPG.
Now that the Longteng team has entered the midfield, they are starting to play in the AFC Champions League with the name of last season's FA Cup champion. In the group stage of the AFC Champions League, the Longteng team is now firmly ranked first in the league.
The results are slightly worse, but still in the middle of the pack.
Fortunately, the media and fans also calculated the average age of the Dragons this season.
On the defense line, the Longteng team's main lineup plus rotation and substitute lineup actually reached an average age of 20.7 years old. Among them, the main goalkeeper is only 18 years old, which is also the youngest main goalkeeper in Chinese history.
On the forward line, because the Longteng team mainly plays 4-2-3-1, there are only three forwards, two of whom are players above 25, Pato (25) and Wenkai (27). Even so
Driven by substitute Zou Weijia, their average age is only 23.3.
Like Shanghai SIPG, the strongest point of the Longteng team is also in their midfield. Among the five main players, Yu Bo (2o) Mahrez (23) Kante (23) Ivo (28) Lin Feng (2o)
, coupled with a group of younger substitutes, the average age is only 21.4 years old, exactly the same as the average age of Shanghai SIPG's midfielders last year.
Calculated in this way, the average age of the Longteng team is 21.8, which is lower than that of Shanghai SIPG last year, exactly one year younger.
This comparison has made everyone focus on this game in the league. Everyone is guessing whether Shanghai SIPG will continue their hot form and win the away game, or whether the Dragons will knock off the current top spot. At the same time,
He also established himself as the number one youth army.
This season, Shanghai SIPG gave the outside world a lot of confidence at the beginning of the season. Several of the team's major sponsors, East Asia Group, Shanghai SIPG, Shanghai Pudong Bank, and Agricultural, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, have increased their sponsorship efforts. They have always been attracted by money.
The poor Xu Genbao guided him to spend a "big price" to buy Swedish international Hesson. The transfer fee this time was 1 million euros. Even so, he is the most valuable foreign player in the history of Shanghai SIPG.
However, Heisen's performance is still very good. Now he has scored in 3 consecutive rounds and ranks second with Pato of the Longteng team with 4 goals. When facing the city rival Shanghai Shenxin, he scored
Two goals. Zhang Sheng knew that in history, Heisen scored 19 goals this season and won the Bronze Boot, which can be regarded as sharing a large part of Wu Lei's pressure on the front line.
As time goes by, the Swedish international's cooperation with Wu Lei and Mike Breen has become more and more tacit. This can be seen from SIPG's home game against Guoan when they dominated the ball control.
In fact, the Longteng team and Shanghai SIPG have a record of playing against each other. In last year's Football Association Cup, the Longteng team defeated Shanghai SIPG in an away game. However, at that time, Shanghai SIPG was struggling to avoid relegation in the Chinese League and had no energy left.
Come to take care of the FA Cup match. The players who played in Shanghai SIPG at that time were basically teenagers from 1993, 1994 or even 1995. They were all absolute substitute players for the SIPG team at the time. On the contrary, all the main players of the Longteng team at the time came.
It turns out that it is reasonable for the Longteng team to win.
When Xi Zhikang, the head coach of Shanghai SIPG, was interviewed by reporters before the game, he seemed very modest: "The Dragons are a very strong team. They have world-class stars like Pato and domestic players in their team.
It’s also very good, but we will try our best to play this game well.”
Zhang Sheng, on the other hand, seemed very confident: "This is our home court, and getting three points is our only goal in this game, so that we can be worthy of the fans' support for us."
And this is what Zhang Sheng did in this game. In the roster, Zhang Sheng did not send Yu Bo, who is more balanced in offense and defense, but Ding Huaiyi, who is sharp in offense. This also shows Zhang Sheng's determination to win this game.
.
The reason why Zhang Sheng dares to play like this is mainly because the team now has Kante as a defensive midfielder. As the sharpest blade in the Shanghai SIPG team, Wu Lei's breakthrough in the frontcourt is their important scoring method, and Kanter
This player with a short height and short center of gravity is very restrained against a player with strong sudden start ability like Wu Lei.
At the same time, Longteng team's center back Ma Yongli is also one of the reasons why Zhang Sheng is relieved. He is also a player who can turn quickly, have good body balance, and has strong explosive power. When facing a player like Wu Lei, as long as he is stuck well
Position, with Wu Lei's current shooting ability, even if he enters the penalty area, he has no chance to score.
After the game started, as Zhang Sheng expected, although Shanghai SIPG handed the ball more to McBrin, the real offense came from Wu Lei's forward penetration. Unfortunately, Zhang Sheng had already seen through this arrangement.
, and targeted countermeasures.
Xi Zhikang's arrangement for this game should be said to be very targeted. He asked Wu Lei to play on the right in order to play behind Ding Huaiyi and Xiao Yunfan. At the same time, he arranged Cai Huikang to keep an eye on Lin Feng in the midfield. Once Lin Feng got the ball and entered the front line,
In the 30-meter area, he followed closely and prevented him from passing the ball. At this time, Cai Huikang's physical confrontation ability, which is second to none in the country, was displayed.
The result of this is that the offense of both sides is very restricted. The offense in the game always hits the 3o meter area and good opportunities are lost. (To be continued.)
