After receiving the ball, Tao Wentao glanced at the left wing. At this time, Ben Alpha was running diagonally towards the Guangzhou Evergrande penalty area. Seeing this scene, Tao Wentao did not make any pause at his feet and kicked directly.
The ball was sent to the left side of Guangzhou Evergrande's penalty area.
When the ball was passed, Ben Alfa just happened to be in position. Facing the extremely fast pass, Ben Alfa seemed to have suction cups under his feet. He stopped the ball firmly and gently touched the ball.
With a sudden movement, the football bypassed Shu Jun's body and ran behind Shu Jun. Ben Alpha also suddenly changed direction while running at high speed to avoid Shu Jun's frontal interception.
"Beautiful pass." Liu Jianhong's voice suddenly raised an octave, "The pass was passed without stopping, and Ben Alpha broke into the penalty area."
"Shoot." Liu Jianhong shouted next, "Paulinho, he blocked Ben Alpha's shot from the bottom line."
Huang Jianxiang also shouted excitedly at this time: "Beautiful. Resolute in attack and tenacious in defense. Ben Alpha's running position, technique and speed, Paulinho's awareness of filling positions, resolute and decisive stretching of his legs to block the eye-catching,
It’s all reflected vividly in this attack and defense!”
Ben Alpha, who had missed this good opportunity, was holding his head and looking at the football flying out of the baseline with a look of disbelief. Zengcheng, who was in shock, patted Paulinho on the shoulder gratefully. He also knew that if it weren't for Paulini
Ou sacrificed his life to chase back, and Ben Alpha's shot went in 9 out of 10 times.
After missing the goal, Ben Arfa quickly adjusted. He quickly walked to the corner kick and prepared to take the corner kick.
"The Longteng team's frontcourt pressure has achieved results." Liu Jianhong also adjusted his excitement at this time and introduced to the fans, "This season, the Longteng team's frontcourt press has been extremely crazy.
The overall pressure on the situation led to Guangzhou Evergrande taking risky passes. To be honest, the only team in Asia that can do this is probably the Dragons."
"It's true. During the Club World Cup, the Dragons used this method to make the then CONCACAF champions suffer losses." Huang Jianxiang obviously liked the Dragons very much and knew the results of the Dragons' tactics very well. "Although he later faced Barcelona
At that time, we were counter-pressed, but that was Barcelona, we can't blame them. Now in the Chinese Super League, this tactic has been carried forward again. Let's take a look at the corner kick of the Longteng team this time."
At this time, Ben Alpha carefully observed the positions of his teammates in the penalty area in the corner kick area. Zou Weijia, Chavez and Lu Zhihui all raised their hands high, indicating that they wanted to catch the ball. The difference was that Zou Weijia's finger strokes
The number for Chavez is two, the number for Lu Zhihui is one, and the number for Lu Zhihui is three.
This is a tactic that the Longteng team has formulated before the game. Whoever makes the first stroke will be the main attacker of the header.
The Longteng team started the game with two centers, and with a master of offensive headers like Lu Zhihui, they were destined to take advantage of this header advantage.
Guangzhou Evergrande, on the other hand, has raised its focus to the extreme. Three players like the Longteng team are all famous for their header attacks. In addition, Guangzhou Evergrande has scored goals from set pieces in many confrontations in the past record.
The coaching staff and players have to pay great attention to it.
Suddenly in the penalty area, players from both sides kept pulling. Some used their hands to hug each other's waist, some used their hands to grab the opponent's players tightly, and some simply pushed the opponent's players outside the small penalty area.
After observing for a while, Ben Alpha kicked the ball out. The arc of the football's flight was very beautiful. After completely bypassing the front point, he accurately found Chavez, who was jumping high in the air.
A slight bump on the rapidly flying ball changed its flight path and went straight to the upper left corner of the goal.
Zengcheng, who was highly focused, the moment Chavez touched the ball, his whole body was like a spring that had been compressed to the limit, and it bounced out. His right hand hit the football, knocking the ball over his head that was bound to score.
The ball shot blocked the baseline.
"Oh! Danger." Liu Jianhong shouted loudly, "Chavez's header was so powerful that it was saved by Zengcheng. This was a magical save."
"Zengcheng is in great shape now." Huang Jianxiang also praised him, "During this period, Zengcheng has performed very well both in the club and the national team. The good results of Evergrande and the national team are closely related to his performance.
, this time it was definitely a world-class save."
"Now in the Chinese Super League, if we don't have such a saving ability, the team is very likely to be scored." Liu Jianhong also joked, "Not to mention these strong teams, there are even several teams destined to be relegated this season. The strikers
All of them are at the level of the main forwards of at least the five major league teams. He can be a good doctor after a long illness. He is still a corner kick for the Longteng team, it depends on the situation."
The Long Teng team's corner kick attack just now scared Guangzhou Evergrande into a cold sweat. In addition, the referee Fan Qi turned a blind eye to the previous pushing and shoving. This time they simply acted like they were in a WWE game, and their hand movements completely changed.
It's like a wrestling move.
At this point, if Fan Qi didn't blow the whistle, the penalty area of Guangzhou Evergrande would really turn into a group battle with WWE. He had to temporarily stop the game and run into the penalty area to separate a few people who had gone too far.
Then he gave warnings one by one.
After the Guangzhou Evergrande defensive player explained a few words, he sincerely admitted his mistake, and Fan Qi went outside the penalty area again, preparing to blow the whistle to start the corner kick.
As a result, as soon as he left the penalty area, there was another burst of chaos in the penalty area.
At this time, even Huang Jianxiang, who was just the commentator, couldn't stand it anymore: "In such a crucial game, the referee should be more decisive. If anyone refuses to obey after being warned, yellow cards are not used for decoration."
Hearing Huang Jianxiang's usual unrestrained talk, Liu Jianhong could only shake his head silently from the side. At the same time, he was dissatisfied with Fan Qi's law enforcement and field control abilities. Of course, he would not say such words.
As if he heard Huang Jianxiang's complaints, Fan Qi rushed into the penalty area again, pulled Zheng Zhi and Lu Zhihui, who had made particularly big moves just now, aside to educate them. As for issuing yellow cards, it was impossible.
After two consecutive episodes, the players on both sides finally became more honest. The three header experts of the Longteng team also changed their roles. Lu Zhihui became the main attacker of the header this time.
After Ben Alpha's penalty kick, Lu Zhihui completely shook off Zheng Zhi's defense and made a beautiful header shot. The extra ball was lobbed far to the other side of the goal.
Zengcheng was completely unable to deal with such a reverse-angle shot. He could only watch the ball fly toward his backhand. Fortunately, the shot with a header was too high for his header ability. Although Lu Zhihui was said to be a hitter,
The opponent was caught by surprise, but there was a slight flaw in the strength. The ball went slightly higher, flew over the crossbar, and landed behind the net.
"Oh!" Liu Jianhong sighed again, "Lu Zhihui's header is so dangerous. It's a little bit off. His header ability is really strong. Guangzhou Evergrande has suffered countless losses from him.
, but still can’t guard against it.”
Huang Jianxiang explained a few words to Guangzhou Evergrande: "There is no way. The players of the Longteng team are generally in good physical condition. Look at the players on the field. They are all tall and big. They usually have good footwork.
Strong, positional attack can break the opponent's defense. There is no need to invest so much force in set kicks. Everyone has ignored their ability to score headers in set kicks. When encountering an evenly matched opponent like Guangzhou Evergrande, the Longteng team's
The power of scoring goals from set pieces is reflected. In addition, Evergrande’s own defensive ability from set pieces is inherently deficient, so there is nothing we can do about it.”
Lu Zhihui's header also slightly eased the Longteng team's continuous offensive. Guangzhou Evergrande's players finally breathed a sigh of relief on defense, and then they vented all their anger on offense.
As the strongest midfielder combination in the Chinese Super League, Paulinho and Zheng Zhi have demonstrated their offensive advantages.
In the tenth minute of the first half, Paulinho used his interception ability in the midfield to resolve the Longteng team's offense. Then he showed his strong ability to push forward.
After retreating Goulart passed the ball, he suddenly accelerated.
Roque Gill failed to withstand Paulinho's dribbling and let him take the ball to the penalty area. Gao Lin was also very smart to withdraw from the penalty area to build a bridge. After receiving Paulinho's pass,
, a beautiful heel knock, the ball passed through the defense of the defensive midfielder Ma Yongli, and found Goulart who broke into the penalty area.
Fortunately, Du Zhenyu was very focused on defense. He leaned on Goulart and did not give him a chance to shoot. Although the latter forced the goal, the angle was too small after all, and the football finally hit the side net.
.
"Guangzhou Evergrande's frontcourt advancement ability is also strong." Liu Jianhong sighed, "There are really not many teams that can directly break through the Longteng team's middle defense."
"Paulinho, Goulart, Alan." Huang Jianxiang counted Guangzhou Evergrande's foreign players one by one, "Which one can not only organize and score goals, but also the top domestic players like Zheng Zhi and Gao Lin
Players, it would be great to be able to play against them."
Evergrande's attack this time greatly boosted their morale, and then they launched another attack in the midfield.
In the twelfth minute of the first half, Paulinho and Zheng Zhi worked together to break the Longteng team's frontcourt press. Paulinho's pass accurately found Huang Bowen on the right, who was on the left side of the Longteng team.
He received the pass in the thirty-meter area, and then he distributed the ball to Goulart.
Guangzhou Evergrande's attack from the right attracted all the attention of the Longteng team's defense. As a result, Goulart faced Lu Zhihui's defense and made a series of beautiful acceleration and emergency stops to open up the passing angle.
Goulart's pass was very sneaky. After bypassing Huang Dawei's defensive area, he directly found the back of the penalty area near the goal post.
At this time, Alan threw away Xiang Tiange's defense and ran to this position. Facing the rapidly falling ball, he hit the ground with a header and then rebounded and shot straight to the top corner of the Longteng team's goal.
After Huang Dawei first discovered that the trajectory of the ball was not in the middle, he quickly began to retreat. When Alan's header hit the goal, he just arrived at the left post of the goal and punched the ball with a powerful right hand, lifting the football out.
The crossbar.
"Alan's shot." Seeing Guangzhou Evergrande's continuous attacks, Liu Jianhong looked like he was watching the fun and not afraid of trouble. "Huang Dawei's save is also world-class. His reaction is really fast. He made a save when he was retreating.
It's too timely. Evergrande's offense is strong."
"The Dragons are a bit out of control in the midfield now." Huang Jianxiang expressed his opinion seriously, "Zheng Zhi plus three foreign players, especially Paulinho, have a great impact on the Dragons' midfield. The Dragons are thinking
The formation presupposes pressure on the opponent, and the players in the middle often push forward, allowing Evergrande to continuously form breakthroughs in the middle. Coach Zhang Sheng should think about how to solve this problem."
Not only Huang Jianxiang saw this, but Zhang Sheng also saw this.
This season, Zhang Sheng deliberately released Roque Gill's offensive ability, giving him a lot of tactical freedom. When he encounters a team that is worse than himself, he can indeed achieve results, but when encountering a team like Guangzhou Evergrande,
When a team with a strong ability to advance in the middle, the defensive midfielder's frequent forward penetration exposes its weaknesses.
Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng simply gritted his teeth and gave Ma Yongli instructions, that is, when Roque Gill moves forward, he must move his position forward, not just as a deep-lying midfielder to protect the central defender, but simply as a defensive midfielder to protect the central defender.
It becomes the midfielder.
In fact, this change is also very dangerous, because Ma Yongli's condition will inevitably lead to the condition of the two central defenders behind him, so the threat of Guangzhou Evergrande playing behind him will be greater.
In order to make up for this loss, the players of the Dragon Team need to move faster as a whole. When the opponent counterattacks, all players must return to defense faster, and everyone must run a longer distance, and such movements are not uniform.
Not jogging, but sprinting back and forth at high speed.
This places higher demands on the team's overall physical fitness.
Higher requirements require stronger strength and more detailed preparations. The Longteng team's accumulation of players and tactics in recent years is precisely to prepare for such a high-level competition.
In this crucial game, the players of the Longteng team showed all their strength.
After Zhang Sheng changed the formation, the overall movement of the Longteng team became more seamless, and the players' running and pressing became more and more crazy.
"Can the Dragon Teng team maintain this rhythm for ninety minutes?" Even Liu Jianhong was shocked by the Dragon Teng team's current game rhythm. "Look at their overall formation on the field. The distance between each other is really too tight.
, In this way, the center is not just a center, and the defender is not just a defender. Everyone's range of activities has been expanded by at least 30 meters, which is too demanding for running."
