Just as Xu Yang was expecting, the Longteng team launched a very threatening attack, and the direction of the breakthrough was Guangzhou Evergrande's left wing.
This season due to Sun Xiang's departure, Guangzhou Evergrande's main left back became Li Xuepeng.
After Sun Xiang left, the players in the Evergrande team who could play left back were Zou Zheng, Li Xuepeng, Mei Fang, and Rong Hao. Among them, only Zou Zheng and Rong Hao were born as left backs. Rong Hao has been under Lippi for more than a year.
He has played left back, so the only pure left back is Zou Zheng.
However, Zou Zheng, who was the first choice at left back, did not meet Cannavaro's expectations after joining. Instead, Li Xuepeng usurped the position.
Li Xuepeng's performance so far in this game is still very good, which is due to his very good physical fitness and extraordinary speed.
Facing Pato's continuous impact, he withstood firmly and used his speed to rush forward from time to time to assist, making Guangzhou Evergrande's left wing play very dynamic.
However, as the game progressed, his shortcomings of being unable to concentrate for a long time and his low rationality in handling the ball were exposed.
This time the Longteng team made tactical changes in their attack from the right, and Xiao Yunfan became the main attacker this time.
Previously, it was Pato who was responsible for the final pass or the choice to cut inside, but this time after Xiao Yunfan received Pato's pass, he did not give the ball to Pato for processing, but came over with him.
After Tao Wentao responded, he suddenly cut inside. At the same time, Pato also started to move to create a gap for Xiao Yunfan.
Because Li Xuepeng had always focused on Pato, he was a little unprepared for Xiao Yunfan's inside cut, and almost let Xiao Yunfan slip into the penalty area. Fortunately, Huang Bowen's replacement was very timely, and he firmly blocked Xiao Yunfan.
The route into the restricted area.
Xiao Yunfan did not rush into the penalty area, but chose to knock the ball horizontally into the middle. Because Huang Bowen came over to cover the position, Guangzhou Evergrande only had Zheng Zhi left to defend in the middle.
Lin Feng and Tao Wentao who came to take over made him a little preoccupied with one thing and the other, and Lin Feng showed his ability in passing and receiving.
Facing Xiao Yunfan's pass, under Zheng Zhi's interference, he did not make any unnecessary adjustments, but directly transferred the ball without stopping, and the ball rolled in the direction of Tao Wentao.
At this time, Tao Wentao had become unguarded. He decisively kicked the ball from the sideline of the penalty area and shot. The high-speed ball grazed the crossbar and was slightly higher than the goal.
Seeing Tao Wentao's shot, Zhang Sheng, who was about to celebrate the goal, held his head in regret, while Cannavaro shouted in fear: "Concentrate, don't miss anyone!"
He Wei praised Xiao Yunfan's decisive inside cut just now: "Coach Zhang Sheng seems to have been well prepared when he replaced Xiao Yunfan in this game. The threat of Xiao Yunfan's inside cut just now was really not small, and the final pass
Also very calm.”
Xu Yang paid more attention to the Longteng team's cooperation in the middle: "Xiao Yunfan's assists are indeed good, but we can see from this attack that the real threat to the Longteng team is still in the middle. Just now, Lin Feng and Tao Wentao
They completely penetrated Guangzhou Evergrande’s defense in the middle, and the cooperation of these two players demonstrated the Longteng team’s passing ability in a small area.”
He Wei nodded and said: "Since the beginning of this season, the Longteng team's penetration ability in the middle is really the best in the Chinese Super League. Most of their goals are scored through penetration in the middle and then attacking the opponent. This is a good match for the team.
The technical ability requirements are really very high.”
In fact, what He Wei said has a lot to do with Zhang Sheng's selection of talents.
Since Zhang Sheng received the support of the system, when it comes to player selection, he has always given priority to players with stronger technical abilities.
Every time the system gives two options, unless the summoned object has very serious flaws, he will definitely prefer the latter option in terms of physical and technical options. This is very different from the current selection and training of domestic players in China.
There were many schools of Chinese football in the early days. In addition to the Southern School and the Northern School, there were also many local schools, such as the Shanghai School (Shanghai), the Sichuan School, etc., but no matter which school they were in, even if they played tough and physically demanding
In the Northern School, the first thing everyone looks for when choosing talents is technology.
However, as Chinese football's contact with the outside world increased, the shortcomings of only focusing on technology and not on physical fitness and physical fitness were severely exposed. At this time, a series of overcorrections appeared.
In addition to various physical tests, many football coaches are increasingly focusing on physical fitness when selecting players. For example, Li Xuepeng, Zhang Jiaqi and others in the current Guangzhou Evergrande team are known for their strong physical fitness.
Later, weird material selection standards like the Locomotive Club were developed.
For example, they will judge the player's future height based on the height of the player's parents and the ratio of the player's upper and lower body. Taller players are more likely to be selected.
For example, they will put stronger players in more important positions, such as forwards, midfielders and other central axis positions.
The most amazing thing is to judge the level of male hormones based on a boy's penis to see whether he is suitable for high-intensity and intense football sports. The selection official of the Lokomotiv Club revealed that the genitals are short and thick,*
*A tight little boy is a good prospect for playing football.
According to them, most of these little boys have normal male hormone secretion ability, and their male hormone, testosterone, is more than normal people. When they grow up, they will be stronger and have more advantages in height and other aspects.
At that time, the ability to compete on the field is stronger.
But they also forget that football is a technical sport, and the players' technical abilities always come first.
Of course, among football players, there are players with good physical fitness like Cristiano Ronaldo who have played at a very high level, and there are also short players like Messi who have become top players. Take recent examples, such as Conca, who is not that kind of player.
A top-notch player, he relies on his skills to make a living.
Therefore, starting from the mid-to-late 1980s, Chinese football players have entered into a misunderstanding, excessively pursuing height, speed, and strength, while ignoring the most basic skills, awareness, and wisdom required for football.
In the past few years, the "head team" once became the portrayal of the Chinese team. However, with the development of the world's economy, human beings' physical fitness is getting higher and higher, not to mention comparing with those super-physical teams in Europe, America, and Africa.
, even countries such as Thailand and Vietnam, which were always bullied by the Chinese team with headers in the past, have also improved in height and confrontation. Only then did everyone sadly discover that the Chinese team did not even have the characteristic of being a "heading team".
has disappeared, but the technology underfoot is getting more and more rough.
After calling players for the past few years, Zhang Sheng has established a very principled employment attitude for the Longteng team - whoever has better technical ability can get promoted faster.
This is also an aspect that Zhang Sheng hopes to influence domestic football - to bring Chinese football back to the right track of technical football.
And technical football did help Zhang Sheng's team. After Xiao Yunfan made a successful breakthrough against Li Xuepeng, he once again used his foot skills to help the team.
At the 17th minute of the first half, Xiao Yunfan once again assisted in the frontcourt. This time Guangzhou Evergrande paid enough attention to him. Their left midfielders Zheng Long and Huang Bowen both came to help defend Xiao Yunfan from the Longteng team on the right.
Tuo, Lin Feng's offensive combination.
This time the Longteng team and Guangzhou Evergrande formed a 3-on-3 offensive and defensive partial confrontation on the left side of the court.
Although football is a confrontation between 11 people, the space on the field is limited after all, so on the field, there are more local 2-2, 3-3 confrontations. Only by gaining an advantage in more such confrontations,
Only then will the team have an overall advantage.
Especially after Barcelona's rise, they have taken such small-scale confrontation to the extreme. They can often use several players with superb skills at their feet to penetrate the opponent's defense in continuous rapid passes. Even if they are not successful, they can attract
More defensive players from the opponent then move out.
Their style of play has become something that many technical teams are now eager to learn from. Zhang Sheng, who is determined to follow the path of technical football, is of course one of the many learners.
This season, with the use of high-tech training equipment such as the intelligent serving system, the Longteng team's local coordination ability has improved by leaps and bounds under this high-intensity intensive training.
So far, in all the games, the Dragon Team has relied on this local advantage to gradually turn into a victory. Judging from the previous games, the only thing that can stop the Dragon Team's style of play is constant fouls.
, only objective conditions like a bad venue were left, until now I met Guangzhou Evergrande.
As the team with the largest accumulation of international players in real history, although these international players are far behind players from high-level and powerful leagues, they still have certain advantages at the level of the Chinese Super League.
Whether it is physical fitness, foot skills, or tactical execution ability of these players, they are above ordinary players in the Chinese Super League. Now when facing local pass defeats like the Longteng team, their performance is better than what the Longteng team encountered before.
Those opponents are much stronger.
For example, this time, the three-person team of the Longteng team cooperated and made more than a dozen passes in a row, but the Guangzhou Evergrande defensive combination with Zheng Zhi as the center blocked all passing routes and possible passing routes.
Although they paid more - a long period of high concentration, far exceeding the running distance of the Dragon Team.
When a local confrontation fails to open up the situation through mid-pass, the decisive factor is the technique of the feet.
When Pato passed the ball to Xiao Yunfan again, Xiao Yunfan did not move the ball away, but used his flexible feet to pedal his bicycle facing Li Xuepeng.
Seeing Xiao Yunfan's movements, He Wei said: "All the players on the Longteng team dare to do moves. Isn't this the third consecutive cycling move?"
Just as He Wei was explaining, Xiao Yunfan made a move to break through from the right. Li Xuepeng, who was responsible for defending him head-on, pushed Xiao Yunfan to the right. After all, the sideline of the court was on the right, so he could use his body
Push him completely out of the sideline.
But this time, Xiao Yunfan passed the ball directly between Li Xuepeng's legs when Li Xuepeng started to move. At the same time, he ran out of the sideline and bypassed Li Xuepeng. This was a beautiful crotch-style passing of the ball.
.
Li Xuepeng also didn't expect Xiao Yunfan to use such a beautiful passing method. He thought that he could successfully complete this defense by squeezing Xiao Yunfan out of the sideline, so he lost his center of gravity and allowed Xiao Yunfan to successfully catch up with the ball.
Xiao Yunfan's pass made another commentator, Xu Yang, also loudly applaud: "The pass was beautiful, but it was still a crotch penetration. This move is so beautiful. Li Xuepeng was too reckless this time."
After being passed by, Li Xuepeng seemed a little annoyed. He took advantage of his fast speed to chase him from behind, and stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Yunfan down before he could pass the ball.
This relatively obvious foul did not escape the referee's eyes. As the best referee last season, Tan Hai rushed over and showed Li Xuepeng a yellow card for this tactical foul.
Knowing that he would definitely not be able to escape the yellow card this time, Li Xuepeng didn't waste any time and turned around and left the scene of the incident.
Zhang Sheng stood on the sidelines and applauded Xiao Yunfan vigorously. This is also the reason why Zhang Sheng attacked Xiao Yunfan this time. In the situation just now, if Zhou Zhou was on the court and the ball finally reached Zhou Zhou's feet, he would have passed the ball back to him again.
Instead of Pato or Lin Feng, after all, he does not have much ability to move forward, especially when facing a powerful team like Guangzhou Evergrande.
Xiao Yunfan's breakthrough also gave the Longteng team a set piece in the frontcourt.
As soon as they saw the Longteng team's set kick and Lu Zhihui on the court, not only all the commentators were looking forward to it, but even the fans who were familiar with the Chinese Super League were also interested. As the absolute nemesis of Guangzhou Evergrande, Lu Zhihui would be on the court as long as he was on the court.
, Guangzhou Evergrande always suffers from him because his header skills are so good.
As expected, after receiving the free kick in the frontcourt, Lu Zhihui rushed over from the backcourt.
He Wei smiled and said: "Lu Zhihui is here, Guangzhou Evergrande must keep an eye on him."
When Ben Alpha stood in front of the ball and prepared to serve, there was a chaos in the penalty area of Guangzhou Evergrande. As the defender with the best physical condition and the strongest heading ability in the team, Mei Fang followed Lu Zhihui closely. This is Kana
Varro had arranged it before the game.
After Ben Alpha sent the ball, the ball flew directly to Lu Zhihui's position, and Lu Zhihui lived up to his reputation as Evergrande's nemesis. Although Mei Fang was staring at him closely, he was still being pulled by Lu Zhihui in different ways.
He found the spot, and his header attack was really threatening. The ball went slightly wide of the goal under Lu Zhihui's head.
Lu Zhihui, who failed to score, also shook his head regretfully and hurried back to his backcourt.
Xiao Yunfan almost scored a goal for the team with his technical advantages!
