For Feng Xiaoting's foul, Scolari did not blame anyone. He chose a risky tactic and was always ready to pay the price for it. He only hoped that the players could defend the free kick and work hard to score more goals in the future.
Before the free kick was taken, the scene in Guangzhou Evergrande's penalty area was very chaotic. Players from both sides tried their best to push each other away with both hands, hoping to gain more space for movement. Of course, the player who was pushed away was not satisfied.
There were many things that were pushed back to the past, and suddenly there were constant disputes in the penalty area.
The referee Abdullah had to blow the whistle and warned the two players on both sides who made the biggest moves. He almost took out a yellow card before the players in the penalty area made less moves.
As soon as Abdullah's front foot left the penalty area, the players on both sides started tugging at each other with their back feet in the penalty area, but the movements became much more concealed.
When Pato's free kick was delivered, it was Lu Zhihui who grabbed the first point in the penalty area, and his header was very powerful. Of course, without even thinking about it, the Guangzhou Evergrande players would not let it go.
He passed him. When Lu Zhihui rushed to the top, his clothes were pulled hard. Lu Zhihui, whose center of gravity was pulled away, pushed the football too far away from the goal. Guangzhou Evergrande's defense was very successful this time.
After Cao Jinghao completed this long pass, he suddenly became the target of Guangzhou Evergrande's attention. In addition to Ma Yongli, Evergrande's players stepped up their efforts to interfere with Cao Jinghao's ball, but there were only so many players on the field.
, if you guard against this one, you will definitely lose the other one.
In the 33rd minute of the second half, Evergrande's frontcourt players went to block Cao Jinghao's pass. Cao Jinghao passed the ball back to goalkeeper Huang Dawei. Huang Dawei handed the ball to Ma Yongli because he strengthened the ball.
In response to Cao Jinghao's interference, Ma Yongli felt a lot more relaxed. After Ma Yongli got the ball this time, he looked up and looked at his teammates in the frontcourt, who didn't have much chance, and made an unexpected move -
-He dribbled the ball and started to break towards the midfield.
It should be said that Ma Yongli's breakthrough was very sudden. When Ma Yongli dribbled the ball over ten meters, no one came up yet. The first one to come up was Paulinho.
Ma Yongli did not retreat because Paulinho came to defend. Instead, he passed the ball to Lin Feng and rushed forward.
Due to Paulinho's attack, Guangzhou Evergrande's midfield was already empty. Now Ma Yongli has advanced and advanced, which is equivalent to Ma Yongli, Lin Feng and Tao Wentao forming an attack in the middle.
Lin Feng's choice was also extremely wise. He passed the ball directly without stopping the ball, and handed the ball to Ma Yongli, allowing him to continue dribbling.
Ma Yongli's direct attack on Huanglong frightened a large number of people in Guangzhou Evergrande. Goulart and Paulinho were the two who desperately chased after him, but they didn't dare to take action now.
There is a yellow card.
Until Ma Yongli was about to enter the 30-meter offensive zone, Goulart behind him had to take action. What Ma Yongli was waiting for was Goulart's move. After all, his own physical fitness was not enough to support him.
Continue to sprint with the ball at high speed.
Under Goulart's hand, Ma Yongli fell to the ground.
This kind of behind-the-back tactical foul has appeared too many times in Guangzhou Evergrande's game, and it has suffered too many losses. The same is true this time. Goulart also received a yellow card because of this foul.
They will also miss the next round of the game. This is a huge blow to Guangzhou Evergrande.
In the end, the Longteng team's free kick ended with Tao Wentao's header.
Ma Yongli's forward attack is one of the unconventional tactics that was slowly developed by Zhang Sheng in the second half of the season of the Longteng team. Under normal circumstances, it is arranged at the end of the game to take advantage of the Longteng team's previous pass and control.
The ability to consume the opponent's physical energy, and then deliver a fatal blow at the end.
In fact, this tactic should be said to be successful. Although it did not cause an offense, Goulart received a yellow card and got a free kick in the frontcourt, which was very cost-effective.
After this free kick, Zhang Sheng also made a substitution. Nie Jiang was replaced by foreign aid Chavez. This substitution was mainly to enhance the impact of the frontcourt and at the same time allow more players in the backcourt.
A connecting point for long passes.
Guangzhou Evergrande also made corresponding substitution adjustments. Yu Hanchao replaced Huang Bowen. Scolari hoped to take advantage of Yu Hanchao's speed and rush again on the correspondingly weak left side of the Longteng team to see if he could
Get another chance.
After Yu Hanchao came on the field, it really worked. He used the weaknesses of Bo's declining physical fitness and Cao Jinghao's slow speed to launch continuous attacks.
In the 35th minute of the second half, he just came on the field and successfully broke through Yu Bo, then decisively cut inside. After the inside shot was blocked, he handed the ball to Paulinho who advanced into the penalty area.
In the penalty area, he used the standard movement of a center holding the ball behind his back and turning around to shoot. This difficult shot was slightly on target and was firmly blocked by Huang Dawei.
Duan Xuan also admired and said: "Paulinho's action is a standard center forward's shooting action! It is so comprehensive. Not even the midfielders, not even the forwards, among our domestic players can make such a shot."
The Longteng team soon retaliated. This time, Cao Jinghao's long pass from the backcourt accurately found Chavez on the striker. The latter used his much stronger body than Jin Yingquan to push away the opponent and then kicked the ball into the penalty area.
The long-range shot from outside caused the football to miss the crossbar and fly out of the baseline, shocking the Guangzhou Evergrande players.
Cao Jinghao's long pass once again aroused Duan Xuan's praise: "In the Longteng team, which mainly focuses on short passes and control, it is really rare to have such a player who can accurately guide long passes."
"He is still young now. Wait until things continue like this. Tsk tsk." Xu Yang seemed to have been infected by Duan Xuan, and tsked twice, and then said, "In the future, if the Long Teng team can combine such long and short-term coordination tactics,
The team’s offensive ability will be even stronger.”
The loss of Kim Young-kwon this time also shocked Scolari, who quickly made his third substitution - replacing Kim Young-kwon with Mei Fang.
After Mei Fang came on the court, he took up the task of marking the defender. He specifically marked the strong Chavez to prevent him from having the chance to turn around and shoot after grabbing the first point again.
After the backcourt stabilized, Guangzhou Evergrande launched another attack. This time, Yu Hanchao got a chance on the right. After a successful breakthrough, he passed the ball to Liu Jian, who was coming up from the edge. The latter's bottom line
The cross went straight to the goal. Elkeson, who had switched positions with Goulart, leaned on Lu Zhihui and reached the penalty kick spot with his instep. Unfortunately, Paulinho overshot at this time. When the football came over,
He had already passed this point, and Ma Yongli took the lead and kicked the ball out of the sideline.
Seeing that the opponent was attacking him on the left, Zhang Sheng could only use his last substitution. He replaced Yu Bo with Zou Weijia. Chavez was moved to the left to defend against the Hanchao, and Zou Weijia was on top.
Arrived at the front line.
Shortly after this substitution, the game entered injury time.
By this time, Guangzhou Evergrande's players could hardly run anymore. Except for the Brazilian trio in the frontcourt and Yu Hanchao who came in later and had some physical strength to rush, the other players had gone through these ninety minutes.
The ultra-high-intensity fight has already exceeded the limit of physical fitness.
Liu Jian, who had previously set up Yu Hanchao, put his hands on his thighs after completing the pass and was breathing heavily.
As for the Evergrande team, which was more suppressed on the left, its physical fitness was even worse. In the first minute of injury time, Zheng Long suffered from cramps in his legs and could not stand up.
However, Guangzhou Evergrande's substitution quota had been used up again, and Zheng Long had to limp back to the field after receiving simple treatment.
Faced with this situation, Scolari wisely chose to retreat. Although it was his home court, a draw was better than a loss.
Soon the five minutes of stoppage time slowly ran out in the midfield confrontation between the two sides.
When Abdullah blew the whistle to end the game, the score was fixed at 1:1. The top stars of both sides contributed a wonderful goal, and the head coaches of both sides also battled wits and courage throughout the game.
, and finally everyone got a draw.
At the press conference after the game, the head coaches of both sides seemed a little unwilling.
Indeed, both the Dragons and Guangzhou Evergrande had the opportunity to kill the game, but unfortunately they failed to seize the opportunity.
Of course, compared to Zhang Sheng who was still able to accept the result, Scolari was really a little unhappy.
They failed to win at home, and main left back Zou Zheng was seriously injured again - after the game, the team doctor told him that Zou Zheng would have to rest for at least 2-3 months due to a torn thigh muscle, and a lot of players would be suspended in the next round.
I couldn't take advantage of Ben Alpha's inability to win. Thinking of a comeback at the Longteng team's home court, I really didn't have much hope.
After this game, due to the arrival of the international match day and the approach of various international competitions, many players of the Longteng team will leave the club to participate in competitions with national teams at all levels.
Among them, Lin Feng, Tao Wentao, Ma Yongli, Lu Zhihui, Zhou Zhou and Xiao Yunfan were selected for the national team, becoming the Chinese Super League team with the largest number of people selected this time. Guangzhou Evergrande only had four people selected. If you include the return to China to participate in the national team this time,
With the four overseas players competing in the team, it can be said that the Longteng team has completely occupied the main lineup of the national team. Among them, Nie Jiang was not selected because he had to participate in the World Junior Championships that was about to start.
Logically speaking, the national team's match in the top 40 of the World Cup preliminaries is still very important. The opponent is Qatar, the strongest opponent in the group stage. In addition, it is an away game. Nie Jiang, a popular player, was not selected.
The national team went to play in the World Junior Championships, which is indeed a bit of a small gain.
This time, the Chinese U17 national team participating in the World Junior Championships was completely dominated by the Dragon Team.
There are Nie Jiang and Wang Xing on the front line, the core organizer in the midfield is Zeng Fansheng, and the left midfielder is Cao Jinghao who performed well in the just-concluded game against Guangzhou Evergrande. As for the defense, the safe team is Longteng.
The two center backs are Liming and Lu Yangyang, the right back is Xiang Tiange, the left back is Shen Jun, and the goalkeeper is Huang Dawei, the current main goalkeeper of the Longteng team.
Except for Wang Xing and Lu Yangyang who may come on the bench, the rest of the players are unbeatable core players.
So when the roster of the national junior team came out and saw as many as nine Longteng players, the fans went crazy. Now not only the national team, but also the national junior team has been rounded up by the Longteng team.
This time, the national junior team was placed in a group with South Africa, Costa Rica, and Russia. It should be said that the strength of this group is not strong. Everyone has high hopes for them, hoping that they can achieve a historic result.
Next, when the training roster of the Olympic team came out, all the fans were speechless because the core players of this team were still mainly players from the Longteng team.
For example, this Olympic team, according to the age requirements, should be based on the 1993 group of players, but there was a big gap in the country in 1993. Except for a few people such as Liu Binbin, they can play in the Chinese Super League.
In addition to the stable playing time, players such as Liao Lisheng and Xu Xin are either capable, but the big brothers are too strong, or they are playing in low-level leagues abroad, and it is really hard to say how they are trained.
Therefore, in the Longteng team, they often get playing time, and the Longteng players who performed brilliantly in Toulon Cup and other competitions occupy the main position of the Olympic team, even though many of them were born in 1995-96, such as this
Yao Tian, Zou Weijia, Du Zhenyu, Qi Ming, Huang He, Wei Zhimin, Xiong Jian and others were selected for the first time.
Among these players, players such as Yao Tian have even performed well in the national team. Their strength is much stronger than the players of the 1993 batch in history.
Of course, including players like Ma Yongli who were also born in 1995, they are basically the main players of the national team. It will be difficult for them to return to the Olympic team to play games. Unless the Chinese Football Association will
Because of their political achievements, they were forced to participate in the Olympic Games.
Perhaps the only thing that is not so surprising is the U19 National Youth Team, because Zhang Sheng summoned relatively few players in the 1997 age group. Only two players, Peng Langjun and Wu Qingmin, were selected. However, these two players, one
He is the team's first point of assists from full-backs. One is the absolute main center of the U19 National Youth Team. Many of the team's goals actually rely on the two of them.
Taking advantage of this international match day, Zhang Sheng can be considered as having time to spend time with his family. Of course, Zhang Sheng also needs to be involved in various matters in the club during this period, such as the current construction of the club's stadium, the club's business affairs
Development status, Lin Feng’s overseas study issues, the club’s listing issues, etc.
However, the most important thing is the reward from the system after the Chinese Super League wins the championship - the call of players.
