There are quite a few defensive players in the midfield of the team now, and many of them are capable of both offense and defense, so the competition for the position of midfielder and midfielder is also the fiercest.
It just so happened that Li Gang proposed to rent out players at this position. Zhang Sheng was quite willing to rent out players to gain game experience, but he needed to carefully consider which player to rent out.
After weighing the players' characteristics, ability values, and potential values, Zhang Sheng said: "There is a player in our team who can be rented out. He is Zhu Xuhe who is currently playing in the Toulon Cup. What do you think?"
Hearing the name mentioned by Zhang Sheng, Li Gang smiled so hard that he could hardly close his mouth and said quickly: "Shengzi, that's enough of a brother. I won't say much else. We will pay for the player's salary and the loan fee will be enough."
, If you have time to come to Hebei, I will warmly entertain you, brother."
Li Gang originally came here just to rent out U19 players.
At the beginning of the season, the Dragons rented out many U19 players, and these players became the absolute main force in their respective clubs, helping these clubs gain a lot of points.
For example, Xinjiang Tianshan Snow Leopards, an old friend of the Longteng team, does not have any good foreign players in the team. They rely on Yan Xiaoyu and Qu Wenming, two U19 players on loan from the Longteng team, as the main force. This season, they have already made great progress.
Entering the ranks of surpassing.
Therefore, compared with history, China Fortune Land Development's performance this season is worse because their opponents are stronger.
Now that Zhang Sheng is willing to let Zhu Xuhe, the absolute main force of the Olympic team, who was loaned to the Tianshan Snow Leopards last year and has proven himself in the Chinese League One, to Li Gang, why should Li Gang be unhappy?
You must know that the current Olympic team is not the team that was looked down upon by countless Chinese fans in history. Because of the emergence of Zhang Sheng, the performance of China's national teams at all echelons in recent years has skyrocketed compared to before.
After discussing the issue of player loan, Zhang Sheng and Li Gang had a good exchange of experience in training, competition, player management and other aspects.
Zhang Sheng relied on his own experience in leading the team in the past few years, and Li Gang followed a world-renowned coach like Lippi. There is still a lot of room for improvement between the two of them.
After getting off work in the evening, Zhang Sheng gathered together his teammates from the current club and the former Magic Water Youth Team in the football school. They all found a hotel to eat and chat happily, recalling the good times in the past and looking forward to each other.
A bright future for Chinese football.
After sending Li Gang away, Zhang Sheng began to contact Zhu Xuhe.
This season, there are Lin Feng, Tao Wentao, Zhang Hao, and Xiong Jian in the team ahead of Zhu Xuhe. Even Qi Ming plays more minutes than Zhu Xuhe.
Through feedback from the coaching staff, Zhu Xuhe has repeatedly requested to play, so it would be a good idea to rent him out.
Zhang Sheng also took the opportunity to ask about the performance of these Longteng players in the Toulon Cup this time.
In this Toulon Cup, the Chinese Olympic team is in a group with Morocco U23, England U20, Cote d'Ivoire U23, and Mexico Olympic team. None of these teams are easy to compete with.
However, the Chinese Olympic team is not without advantages, because in the first round of competition, the Chinese Olympic team had a bye, and they had more time to observe the situation of these opponents.
In the first round, all four teams were tied. If the Chinese Olympic team can win, it will have a good head start.
With the increase of various high-level youth competitions, the Toulon Cup is no longer an event that countries attach great importance to before, so it is natural for the level to decline, especially for those European teams, which have become the U21 of European countries.
Second team U20 selection team match.
Before the first game against the Monaco U23 team, head coach Fu Bo made a wrong judgment. After seeing Monaco and England U20 draw 3-3, he still regarded this team as a point-grabbing opponent.
, because this team also participated in the Toulon Cup last time and its results were very poor.
The offensive tactics arranged by Fu Bo during the game were also extremely crude. Apart from letting the players on the wing step in to attack and pass the ball, there was no creative tactical design. Once the winger was watched by the opponent, there was nothing he could do.
.
Throughout the first half, the frontcourt players of the Chinese Olympic team were running around like headless flies. On the contrary, the Monaco Olympic team, which insisted on organizing in the middle, completely controlled the situation on the court.
The two midfielders of the Olympic team, Xiong Jian and Qu Wenming, could only sweep away from the backcourt. The balls they worked so hard to send to the wide players were always easily intercepted by their opponents, or they were intercepted again when the attack failed.
Leave it to them.
Finally, under the strong pressure of the opponent, in the 33rd minute of the first half, the Chinese Olympic team lost the ball. This time the opponent took advantage of the Chinese Olympic team's wing attack error again and prepared to press Huang He who assisted.
He went up too far and hit Huang He behind.
Morocco's forward Ben Chalki received a pass from midfielder Hadji Hodge, passed the center defender Cao Haiqing and then faced the attacking Olympic team goalkeeper Yergeti with a lob, turning the score into 1
:0.
At the end of the first half, the Olympic team could barely maintain the score.
Fu Bo seemed at a loss during the halftime break and failed to make any effective adjustments.
At this time, the Longteng players in the Olympic team had to start saving themselves. As the big brother of these players and the earliest player to join the team, Zhu Xuhe called all the Longteng players together.
He said: "This offense is too simple and crude. I think we should use the training content at the club, otherwise it will be more difficult in the second half."
Yan Xiaoyu, Ni Kai and others surrounding him nodded in agreement with his statement.
The Longteng players in the Chinese Olympic team this time are mainly concentrated in the midfield and frontcourt, including forward Tang Jin, Yan Xiaoyu, who is responsible for playing midfielder, and the two midfielders on the left and right are Ni Kai and Zhu Xuhe.
The defensive midfielders are Xiong Jian and Qu Wenming, and the only one in the backcourt is Huang He at right back.
Huang He, who rushed too hard and lost the ball in the first half, was even more resentful. He said: "What kind of game is this fucking game? It's just defending the backcourt, and the two wingers rush forward, and the forwards can grab some points and shoot."
If you get in, everything will be fine. Whether you can get in or not is none of his business."
Zhu Xuhe smiled and said: "Stop complaining, we are still counting on you to give us the ball in the backcourt in the second half."
Huang He asked: "Aren't you afraid of who will have objections to this arrangement?"
"Tch, who cares." Qu Wenming next to him interjected.
As an extremely opinionated player, Qu Wenming even said unscrupulously: "It doesn't matter if he has an opinion. Now he relies on our competition to get results, and we don't rely on him to play football."
"With our strength, we will be the main force in the club sooner or later. Does it depend on his face to play in the club?" Midfielder Yan Xiaoyu, who had no chance to win the ball in the first half of the game, also expressed his dissatisfaction.
Seeing that everyone basically agreed with his suggestion, Zhu Xuhe said: "Okay, I'll talk to other teammates. If they agree, that's fine. If they don't, let them stay in the backcourt. Anyway,
The frontcourt is all our people.”
After speaking, Zhu Xuhe began to communicate with other Olympic teammates.
Many players looked at Zhu Xuhe in astonishment. Once word got out about the head coach being sidelined like this, it would be a big deal and it would most likely become a stain on them.
Only goalkeeper Yergeti agreed. As a player from the Xinjiang National Games Team, although he was not acquired by the Xinjiang Tianshan Snow Leopards, all of his teammates stayed in the Tianshan Snow Leopards.
From the exchanges with his former teammates, he knew that Zhu Xuhe was an absolute core player in the team, and his ability was the strongest in the team.
Now that the team is playing like this, losing the ball is a high probability event for him as a goalkeeper. It is better to agree with Zhu Xuhe's opinion. Anyway, as a goalkeeper, he is not that obvious in this tactic.
After the start of the second half of the game, the Olympic team no longer clung to the two wings like in the first half, and began to deal with the opponent in the middle.
Fu Bo on the sidelines also had a look of astonishment on his face. This was completely different from his tactical design.
He quickly gestured to the players on the field and asked them to let go of the center. Unfortunately, the players on the field ignored him at all and continued to play according to their own tactics, and the results were quickly achieved.
In the fifth minute of the second half, Qu Wenming teamed up with Xiong Jian in the midfield to cut off the opponent's players, and then began to organize a counterattack.
In the past, the Chinese Olympic team would pass the ball to the side when they got the ball, and then hoped to use the players' impact to solve the problem themselves, so the other players of the Moroccan team were not fully prepared at all.
When Xiong Jian got the ball, the opponent didn't send anyone to press him, allowing him to easily pass the ball to Yan Xiaoyu who came over to respond. Yan Xiaoyu quickly played a one-two with Xiong Jian.
After passing the two Moroccan midfield defenders, Yan Xiaoyu was now facing the opponent's defense line.
A Moroccan center back quickly stepped out to defend him.
Yan Xiaoyu did not continue to struggle in the middle. This player, known as the "low-end version of Kongka", played an ability comparable to Kongka, and passed the ball to the opponent with an extremely beautiful and penetrating pass.
Ni Kai on the left.
Because of Yan Xiaoyu's breakthrough, Morocco's players all gathered in the middle in desperation, especially on the left, which left a huge gap. After Ni Kai received the ball, there was an open space.
When Ni Kai was originally summoned, his template was Reus, who was especially talented in speed and passing. Morocco's right back tried his best to chase him, but he got further and further away.
.
After Ni Kai attracted another central defender from the opponent, he passed a very beautiful pass to the middle. Tang Jin in the middle was very comfortable when he got the ball and rushed over from Yan Xiaoyu in a hurry.
The central defender had no time to defend, and Tang Jin fired an extremely beautiful volley that left the Moroccan goalkeeper helpless.
The ball entered the goal at an extremely fast speed, and soon after the start of the second half, the Olympic team equalized the score with an extremely beautiful tactical combination.
Fu Bo, who was originally planning to use a substitution to warn the players on the field, also stopped his actions and began to applaud excitedly from the sidelines.
The commentator in charge of the commentary was also confused and thought that the offensive tactics in the second half were the changes made by Fu Bo. He said excitedly: "The Olympic team played too messy and conservative in the first half, but the tactical adjustments in the second half were still
It was very successful. This time they broke through from the center, then moved to the wing, and finally passed the ball. The idea of playing is extremely clear. We expect them to play better in the second half of the game."
After conceding the goal, the Moroccan team seemed a bit confused. In the first half, the opponent's style of play, which was decades behind international football, made them look down upon. Unexpectedly, they were beaten by the opponent in the second half, and this kind of
Continuous short passes in the middle, active movement on the wings, and then the combination of wings and center was extremely beautiful.
This made them really confused. They couldn't tell whether their opponent, the Chinese Olympic team, was in poor shape in the first half or if it was just a mistake. They couldn't tell because the difference was too big.
After losing the ball, Morocco immediately launched a counterattack, but the effect was not too obvious, because the Olympic team began to press high in the frontcourt, and at the same time, they used man-marking defensive tactics in the midfield area.
Even the head coach of Morocco turned his head and glanced at Fu Bo next to him, and thought to himself: "This is a master. He deliberately showed weakness in the first half, and now he suddenly attacks and scores a goal. It's amazing."
The Moroccan players on the field were extremely uncomfortable with the sudden high-position press of the Olympic team. In the tenth minute of the second half, Moroccan team No. 20 Mossadaq was pressed by Tang Jin in the backcourt, and his pass was accidentally blocked by Xiong who came over to press.
Jian broke the ball, and Xiong Jian passed the ball to Huang He who stepped in to assist on the right. Huang He used his speed advantage to force past the opponent's defensive players, followed the baseline and entered the penalty area, and then the ball was
When he was about to leave the baseline, a precise inverted triangle pass was passed to the center of the penalty area. Tang Jin also met the ball and shot the ball into the goal.
The Olympic team turned the score to 2:1 and took the lead!
It has to be said that the strength of the Longteng players in the Olympic team of this Toulon Cup is far superior to that of the previous two. These players who were summoned later have higher potential and grow faster. At the same time, like Zhu
Although players like Xu He and Xiong Jian have lower potential values, they were summoned earlier and have stronger ability values. For example, Zhu Xuhe has even reached his peak of 74, while Xiong Jian is higher, reaching 76. Like this
Even if you join the national team, you can still play at your level.
Their strength is far superior to the previous players, and being able to overtake the score now is a reflection of their ability.
Morocco, which was lagging behind, began to attack with all its strength. Of course, the Olympic team's defense in the midfield and frontcourt was also more powerful, which reduced a lot of pressure on the defense line behind. Morocco's offense never had much effect.
On the contrary, it was Huang He on the right who showed the ability that Zhang Sheng had modeled after him. This player modeled after Glen Johnson made extremely sharp assists, making Morocco's left wing extremely fearful. With the addition of Zhu Xuhe,
The wide midfielder with outstanding defensive ability provided cover, forming an inversion between the wide midfielder and full back, completely occupying the advantage on the right.
Both sides were basically helpless against their opponents on the court. When the game ended, the Chinese Olympic team achieved its goal of grabbing points before the game.
