Cui Kangxi was extremely troubled by the Longteng team's goal. His original idea was to see if he could score first, so that the players could gain psychological comfort and then build up their morale to strive for a comeback. Unexpectedly, these disciples on the field now rely on
Despite the desperate foul, he only got a penalty kick.
After Jeonbuk Hyundai lost humiliatingly to Guangzhou Evergrande 1:5 at his home court, he used this kind of psychological adjustment method to make his team beat Guangzhou Evergrande 1:3 away from home.
In that game, they also conceded a goal first, and later Zhao Xingheng was sent off with a red card.
Jeonbuk Hyundai's Kwon Soon-tae, who won the game after the game, pretended to be proud and said: "Our captain Zhao Xingheng was sent off because the head coach had expected it before. The coach did this to boost the morale of the players."
."
In fact, thanks to the referee's repeated mercy in that game, Jeonbuk Hyundai's players gained the advantage in confrontation through constant fouls and small moves. The then Guangzhou Evergrande head coach Lee Jang-soo tried to protect Kong who was severely violated.
Card, he was replaced more than 60 minutes into the second half, and Jeonbuk Hyundai truly took the initiative on the court.
But the content of that game was completely different from now. Although the team lost the ball first in that game, the initiative on the field was controlled by itself. The current situation is that the team lost the ball first and the situation on the field could not be controlled.
The team has no idea how to change the status quo.
On the contrary, after scoring the goal, the Longteng team was obviously extremely relaxed. After scoring the goal, Pato celebrated with his teammates and said in English: "Such a stupid foul will only give us a penalty kick. How much they give us, we will
How much?"
As Tao Wentao, who has a good relationship with Pato in the team, told his teammates what Pato said, everyone burst into laughter.
When the ball kicked off again, Jeonbuk Hyundai's players were obviously a little angry. After Tao Wentao easily passed their midfielder Cui Zheshun again in the midfield, the latter didn't even think about it.
Tao Wentao fell to the ground with a sweep of his legs.
Cui Zhechun's action not only made Zhang Sheng furious on the sidelines, but the audience in the stands also let out loud boos. Such an obviously hurtful action completely violated sports ethics.
As the captain, Lin Feng rushed over immediately and pushed Cui Zhechun away. He knew the condition of Tao Wentao's ankle. Although he had gone to the United States for special treatment before, after all, it was different from the natural human ankle.
.
Following Lin Feng's actions, players from both sides gathered together and started pushing each other. The Australian referee quickly separated the players from both sides, gave Cui Zhechun a yellow card, and then warned Lin Feng again.
End this farce.
Zhang Sheng was speechless about this penalty. Tacking someone from behind without the ball is a foul that FIFA explicitly stipulates to be prohibited, and it also indicates that a red card is the minimum baseline. He didn't expect that Cui Zhechun would be punished for such a foul.
Just a yellow card.
Zhang Sheng almost rushed to the court to argue with the referee. Fortunately, He Lijun and Xuerle were very calm. They stopped Zhang Sheng. Once Zhang Sheng was sent off by the referee with ulterior motives, then
Not only is it difficult to predict the consequences of this game for the Longteng team, which is taking the initiative, but it will be even more dangerous in the next round of the AFC Champions League.
Even He Wei, who was in charge of the commentary, almost yelled: "How can such a penalty represent the true level of the AFC Champions League? Such a referee will only make the situation on the field worse and worse. I hope Tao Wentao is okay."
In fact, as a CCTV commentator, He Wei's words are a bit out of line. After all, CCTV represents the mouthpiece of the Chinese government. Many things cannot be said randomly, because it will lead to misunderstandings by others.
Huang Jianxiang's "Interpretation Gate" incident is still fresh in my mind.
"This is not the first time that Chinese Super League players, whether Guangzhou Evergrande or Longteng, have suffered losses in the AFC Champions League. Although it is related to the fact that our players are not adaptable to the penalty standards of the AFC Champions League, it is difficult to say whether there are other reasons.
"As a guest, Xu Yang was very brave to speak out.
Fortunately for Zhang Sheng, Tao Wentao rested on the ground for a while, holding his leg. After being checked by Longteng team doctor Li Xiang, he finally stood up. It seemed that he was in good condition and had no serious injuries.
The referee called Cui Zhechun over at this time and gave him a few very serious warnings. Obviously he also knew that such actions could not happen again, otherwise the situation on the field would really be out of control.
Sure enough, after the Longteng team's frontcourt free kick missed the goal, Jeonbuk Hyundai's players became much more honest. Although they kept making small moves, they no longer dared to make big foul moves.
The Longteng team once again gained the initiative on the court, and their offense became obviously more threatening.
In the 18th minute of the first half, Pato, who switched to the left, continuously swayed inside and dodged the continuous blocks of Cui Zhechun and Li Zaicheng. When he came to the edge of the penalty area, he decisively took a shot. The ball went straight to the goal.
He ran towards the blind corner of the goal. Fortunately, Quan Chuntai was very focused and touched the ball with his guidance during its flight. The ball changed its direction slightly, hit the goal post and bounced back into the penalty area.
Jeonbuk Hyundai's central defender Wilkinson kicked the ball out of the baseline before Nie Jiang's follow-up shot. Jeonbuk Hyundai was able to escape the disaster.
In the twenty-fifth minute, it was Ben Alpha's turn to perform again. This time he switched from the right wing to the center. He used his superior foot skills to attack Jeonbuk Hyundai's midfielder Choi Cheol-soon, and it was determined.
With a yellow card on his back, he didn't dare to make any moves.
Sure enough, when Ben Alpha's continuous changes of direction came to him, Cui Zhechun could only retreat and defend, not even daring to stretch out his hands, because the flagrant foul he committed a few minutes ago was still fresh in his mind, and he was afraid that Ben Alpha would come.
If you flop, or don't center your body, and look for a foul, then you will really be blinded once you foul.
Ben Alpha's breakthrough made it difficult for Choi Cheol-soon to defend, and another defensive midfielder of Jeonbuk Hyundai, Lee Jae-sung, had to come over to support, and Ben Alpha was waiting for Lee Jae-sung to leave his position.
If it were Ben Alpha before, he might have just kept his head down and carried the ball all the way down, but this time is different from the past. Under Zhang Sheng’s training, Ben Alpha instinctively and even consciously started passing the ball.
As part of his work, he hit a beautiful diagonal through ball directly to the right.
It was Nie Jiang who was on the right side at this time.
Facing such a beautiful pass from Ben Arfa, Nie Jiang did not waste it. He suddenly started with speed and passed between Jeonbuk Hyundai's left back and left center back directly into the penalty area.
In response to Nie Jiang's forward penetration, Jeonbuk Hyundai's players could only follow closely. After all, this was a restricted area and Nie Jiang was dribbling the ball at high speed. A hasty shot would most likely be a combination of a yellow card and a penalty kick.
Seeing Nie Jiang rushing into the penalty area, Jeonbuk Hyundai goalkeeper Kwon Soon-tae quickly moved to the left side of the goal to block Nie Jiang's shooting angle and defend him from hitting the near corner.
However, Nie Jiang did not insist on shooting. He directly knocked the ball horizontally while dribbling at high speed. The ball was a curved ball. After passing another central defender, the ball came to the right side of the goal. Waiting for
This is Pato.
Unfortunately, Pato's push shot went over the crossbar. Of course, this was also related to Kim Ki-hee pushing him from behind.
Pato was very annoyed when his shot went high, because this kind of push shot without stopping the ball requires angle, and the interference behind it is very influential.
After finishing the shot, Pato quickly signaled to the referee that a Jeonbuk Hyundai player had committed a foul. Unfortunately, the referee did not make any indication, indicating that it was a Jeonbuk Hyundai goal kick.
He Wei, who was in charge of the commentary, praised the Longteng team's beautiful offensive cooperation: "Ben Alpha broke through with the ball, and the players of Jeonbuk Hyundai did not dare to take action. Ben Alpha passed the ball, beautiful! Nie Jiang slanted from the ribs.
It went in, a beautiful pass, Pato, oops, the empty goal actually went high. Let’s take a look at the slow motion.”
When the slow motion was played, Xu Yang said: "The Longteng team's offense this time was so beautiful. The three people in the frontcourt were passing and running together, and Jeonbuk Hyundai's defense was completely blown away."
The slow motion at this time also showed the clip of Pato shooting high, and Xu Yang also saw the clues: "When Pato shot, Jin Jixi pushed behind him, pushing Pato's center of gravity away. No wonder the shot hit."
High. This ball is considered a good ball by Pato. If he falls to the ground, it will be a 100% penalty kick."
He Wei also questioned the referee's decision: "Such a push from behind cannot be ignored just because the shot is completed."
Knowing that such questioning was meaningless, He Wei said casually, and then began to praise the Longteng team: "The forwardless formation of the Longteng team is really invincible at the Asian level."
"Of course, top ball players like Pato and Ben Arfa plus Nie Jiang, a rare talented player in our Chinese football over the years, such impact, at the Asian level, no one would be on tenterhooks." Xu Yang
He said proudly, "Coupled with Coach Zhang Sheng's tactics,
Arrangement. Look, among the three of them, which one can not lead, break, pass, and shoot? What’s more, these three people have super balanced left and right foot skills, so they can play left, center, and right, and can support them.
Frequent position changes on the field make it really difficult for the opponent's defense to defend."
"Yes, at the beginning, Ben Arfa was on the left, Pato was on the right, and Nie Jiang was in the middle. After scoring the first goal, Pato and Ben Arfa changed positions. The last attack was made by Pato.
Tuo's breakthrough on the left, Nie Jiang's grab for two points in the middle, this
This time it was Ben. Alpha broke through in the middle, Nie Jiang responded on the right, and Pato shot from the left." He Wei reviewed all three threatening attacks of the Longteng team, "It can be seen that they will coach Zhang Sheng's
The no-front formation tactic was fully utilized."
It should be said that He Wei hit the core of Zhang Sheng's frontcourt tactics. In Zhang Sheng's tactics, multiple players who can meet the frontcourt without striker tactics are fundamental. In addition to the three forwards in this game, Zhang Sheng
In fact, Tao Wentao can be used to replace any of them. Even if Pato and Ben Arfa leave, there will still be a very comprehensive foreign aid like Chavez. This is why Zhang Sheng chose Chavez.
The reason why he is not considered a top foreign aid is because he is comprehensive.
In the next game, the Longteng team continued the previous offensive tactics. The front three changed positions extremely frequently. Jeonbuk Hyundai's defense seemed extremely difficult, including Li Zaicheng, who was responsible for organizing the ball in the midfielder position.
Not only did they put most of their energy into defense, Jeonbuk Hyundai's offense was almost completely exhausted!
In the 29th minute, Nie Jiang came to the left. He, Wei Zhimin and Lin Feng made three consecutive quick passes on the left without stopping, which completely attracted the defensive attention of Jeonbuk Hyundai. Finally,
Lin Feng changed his passing rhythm again. He gave up the short pass and sent the ball to Tao Wentao with a mid-range pass.
After Tao Wentao got the ball, it was extremely easy for him to defend Jeonbuk Hyundai, whose midfielder was out of position. He broke into the penalty area all the way.
Although Jeonbuk Hyundai center back Wilkinson had a physical advantage, his agility was completely incomparable to Tao Wentao. The latter made a sudden stop and changed direction while accelerating and passed him.
I have to say that Wilkinson's reaction was quite quick. He pulled Tao Wentao with hidden movements, and then followed up with a tackle.
Because Tao Wentao was pulled, his speed slowed down, and the ball was a little far away from his body, so Wilkinson's tackle looked like Tao Wentao's action after he stepped too far.
As a qualified referee, this kind of ball should be a penalty kick without thinking, because Wilkinson did not have any chance to grab the ball and even tackled Tao Wentao.
However, the Australian referee in this game once again showed his "blindness" and let his fellow countryman Wilkinson go.
When several assistant coaches of the Longteng team raised questions on the sidelines, Zhang Sheng did not move. He just shook his head and smiled helplessly. It seemed that this referee was definitely up to something.
However, the gap between the two teams cannot be controlled by a timid referee.
A few minutes before the end of the first half, Jeonbuk Hyundai made fatal mistakes due to passive defense, psychological pressure and physical pressure.
In the 41st minute, Tao Wentao was completely left in front of the penalty area. Faced with such an opportunity, Tao Wentao did not hesitate and shot directly.
The ball crossed the diagonal line from the right side in front of the penalty area and went straight to the left side of the goal. The ball was a low ball with extremely fast speed. Both defenders in the Jeonbuk Hyundai penalty area gave up their defensive targets to block it.
This shot was unfortunately a step too late.
The ball rolled over before it came out from their defensive feet, directly bypassing the palm of goalkeeper Kwon Soon-tae's saving hand, and bounced into the net after bouncing to the inside of the lower corner of the left goal post.
This beautiful shot gave the Longteng team a 2:0 lead in the first half.
