After the start of the second half, FC Seoul's changes achieved results.
Dejan's retreat shortened the passing distance from FC Seoul's backcourt to the frontcourt, allowing them to better control the accuracy and intensity of their passing.
FC Seoul's first dangerous attack came in the seventh minute of the second half.
The Longteng team had a interception of the ball in the frontcourt. Jin Dongyou handed the ball to Osmar, who withstood Tao Wentao's counterattack and passed the ball to Deyang with a beautiful pass.
He also took off in time to top the ball. DeYoung clearly won the confrontation with Rock Gill. He not only grabbed the point, but also grasped the route of the ball in the air. His pass directly found the ball.
The position in front of Adriano allows Adriano to start directly without pausing.
Sure enough, as soon as Dejan's pass fell, Adriano and Lu Zhihui, who were also heading for the ball, showed the gap.
Adriano was facing the Longteng team's goal, while Lu Zhihui had his back to the goal. Lu Zhihui could only choose to face up to him because he wanted to follow sideways and defend, but the final result would definitely be that the opponent accelerated and changed direction and was thrown away.
It should be said that Lu Zhihui's choice was correct, but he still underestimated Adriano's ability with his feet.
When Adriano was dribbling the ball at high speed, he made a very realistic fake move by shaking the center of gravity of his body. Lu Zhihui first adjusted according to Adriano's center of gravity. As a result, when Adriano adjusted his center of gravity again,
At the line, Lu Zhihui, who was much taller than Adriano and had a higher center of gravity, could no longer adjust.
Although Ma Yongli desperately chased back to block Adriano, stretching out his legs in the hope of getting ahead of the latter to stop the former, Adriano decisively kicked the ball and shot.
Facing Adriano's shot, Huang Dawei acted very decisively. He blocked the near corner. Facing the powerful shot, he quickly fell to the ground and hit the ball out of the baseline with his fist.
"It was a bit dangerous just now." Liu Jiayuan also looked frightened by Seoul FC's counterattack just now. "Deyang's ability is really good, he can be at the forefront, and he can also withdraw to make the ball. The Longteng team should strengthen their attack on him.
Marking."
For Deyang, Zhou Ning, who is a Beijing football player, is obviously more familiar with it: "Indeed, for a forward like Deyang, saying that he is the Asian Ibrahimovic is really not just a boast. When facing Asian teams,
His foot skills, header ability, confrontation ability, and ball-playing ability are all first-class. When he was in Beijing Guoan, the team used him as an all-purpose player on the field, and the effect was really good.
To be honest, Guoan really shouldn’t let him go. After he left Guoan, look at Guoan’s current performance, alas..."
As a member of Guoan, Zhou Ning also looks unwilling now.
Zhang Sheng on the sidelines has no intention of being as sad as Zhou Ning. How to deal with the threat of Deyang on the court is the top priority.
Now Deyang's position on the field is very flexible. If Ma Yongli is far away from the midfielder position, he chooses to confront Roque Gill in the middle. If Ma Yongli comes up, Deyang will run to the two wings and make full use of his ability.
.Alfa and Xiang Tiange made a fuss about the gap left by the side after they attacked the frontcourt.
No matter which one Dejan chooses, if the Dragons withdraw their frontcourt players or if Ma Yongli completely plays the defensive midfielder in advance, they will be in trouble with FC Seoul.
With the players in the frontcourt withdrawing, the pressure on FC Seoul's backcourt will be greatly reduced. As a capable head coach, Choi Yong-soo has the courage to take risks and the determination to attack, so he will definitely put pressure on the two wingers.
, the offensive and defensive dynamics on the court are different.
As for Ma Yongli's premise, the two central defenders must also premise it. The space behind the back line will become larger, which will provide Adriano with more space to sprint, and Seoul FC's counterattack will be more dangerous.
Just when Zhang Sheng was thinking, Deyang made another good shot.
This time Deyang wandered to the left side. Compared with Qi Ming on the right, Tao Wentao's defense on the left was not as timely as Qi Ming's. Deyang also spotted this point.
When FC Seoul's wing-back Gao Guangmin passed the ball over, Tao Wentao was a step slower and Dejan had already got the ball. This time Tao Wentao's confrontation with Dejan was not like the confrontation with Adriano in the first half.
Yes, Dejan's physical fitness is much stronger than Adriano.
Faced with Tao Wentao's interference, Deyang blocked the former with his hands, and then forced his way from the side to the center. At this time, Yojiro Takaki also flexibly ran to the penalty area to respond, attracting Ma Yongli's attention.
As the true core of the team, Osmar quietly rushed up from behind. When the Dragons players focused their attention on the players in the frontcourt, Osmar had already arrived.
We arrived not far from the restricted area line.
When Dejan was dribbling the ball, he had already observed Osmar's position. He made a move to pass forward, which again greatly attracted the attention of the Longteng team's defense, and suddenly used the instep of his outside foot to pass the ball forward.
The ball was given to Osmar.
This pass was close to the ground, and the ball was very fast. Facing the incoming ball, Osmar directly fired a powerful and heavy volley. He was more than 1.9 meters tall and full of strength. The football was like a fired cannonball.
, flying straight to the upper corner of the Longteng team’s goal.
However, because Osmar pursued power too much, when the shot reached the Longteng team's goal, it had already gone over the crossbar and flew into the stands behind the goal.
After FC Seoul's attack ended, Zhang Sheng finally made up his mind and made adjustments on the field.
Under Zhang Sheng's instructions, Ma Yongli was no longer just active in the middle. He began to change from a swingman in the midfield and central defender to a backcourt sweeper.
The role of the sweeper is a very old tactical setting. The concept of this position existed as early as the early days of football. However, at first, the sweeper was just a pure defender. By the time "Football Emperor" Beckenbauer was everywhere,
With the emergence of space, the scavenger becomes more flexible - both forward and backward.
Up to now, sweeper is no longer an exclusive name for any position. Many players with flexible positions, whether in the back or midfield, will be given this title.
Zhang Sheng now uses Ma Yongli as a backcourt sweeper. He is not limited to a defender on the court, nor is he limited to the role of filling in for the midfielder in the middle. He must flexibly travel between the backline and the midfielder to cover the gap.
the entire area.
This tactical position has very high requirements for players. Players must have good defensive awareness, be able to run, have speed, and finally have the ability to shoot the ball well.
In the Longteng team, the only one who barely possesses this ability in the backcourt is Ma Yongli.
The liberated Ma Yongli quickly achieved results. The increase in his sweep area completely restricted Deyang's performance. When he was next to Deyang, he could flank Deyang with his teammates to prevent him from easily taking the ball.
When the ball is not around De Young, he forms a pressing team with his teammates to cut off De Young's passing line.
Zhang Sheng's change of tactics finally silenced FC Seoul's offense again.
Now what Zhang Sheng needs to solve is the offensive problem in the frontcourt.
Nie Jiang's playing was very uncomfortable, which was the main reason why the Longteng team's offense was unable to threaten in the past 20 minutes. It was also an important condition for Seoul FC to become active.
In the first half, Nie Jiang put great defensive pressure on FC Seoul in the frontcourt, preventing FC Seoul from unleashing their offensive capabilities. After the start of the second half, Nie Jiang's silence allowed FC Seoul to free up more energy.
Attacking.
It's time to change this.
In fact, Nie Jiang encountered similar problems as Deyang.
Dejan was very active in the area of 20 to 30 meters in the frontcourt, so the Longteng team used Ma Yongli and two midfielders on the side to guard him.
Nie Jiang is now being guarded by two defensive midfielders, Osmar and Zhu Shizhong. The only difference from the situation of the Longteng team is that the two forwards of the Longteng team have too strong impact, and two of their three central defenders
The wing center backs have to stay behind all the time to guard against the Long Teng team's wing attacks. As for Kim Won-sik in the center, he must put in his best efforts to deal with Chavez.
In other words, the Longteng team has a central defender who can roam randomly, but FC Seoul cannot.
Considering this situation, Zhang Sheng gave Nie Jiang more room for movement, that is, he could lean to both sides at any time. Chavez had to run wider to help Nie Jiang draw the defensive attention.
After nearly thirty minutes of intense confrontation in the second half, the physical fitness gap between the two sides once again widened.
As a team with better foot skills, although the Longteng team runs the same distance as Seoul FC, one is more proactive in seeking opportunities for attack, and the other is passively following the defense. Seoul FC is responsible for defending Nie Jiang.
Osmar and Zhu Shizhong consumed much more physical energy than Nie Jiang.
In high-level football matches, even goalkeepers who don’t have much running distance will lose three or four pounds after a game due to the high tension of ninety minutes, let alone people like Osmar and Zhu Shijong who are always on guard.
With Nie Jiang, there are players who keep running.
Many fans often wonder after a game. One team ran more distance than the other team, why it still couldn't defend, and why it still conceded the ball. The main reason is that a team with poor technology can only
Relying on more running distance and constant follow-up defense to make up for the technical disadvantage.
While Nie Jiang is still able to speed up and expand his running range, Osmar, especially Zhu Shizhong who has a yellow card, is clearly unable to keep up.
At the 34th minute of the second half, Nie Jiang pulled to the right to meet Xiang Tiange. Zhu Shizhong also followed to defend. As a result, when Nie Jiang, Xiang Tiange, and Tao Wentao's triangle attack, Nie Jiang, Xiang Tiange, and Chawei
Switch, when Nie Jiang changed direction and accelerated after getting the ball from Chavez, Zhu Shizhong was a step slower. Seeing that Nie Jiang was about to cut inside again and prepare to shoot, Zhu Shizhong had to take action and pushed Nie Jiang into the penalty area.
cutting edge.
Fortunately, the referee was merciful. Considering that Zhu Shizhong had a yellow card, he only gave him a stern warning and gave the Longteng team a free kick in the frontcourt.
Considering that the first goal of the Longteng team was scored from a free kick, when Tao Wentao and Ben Alpha stood in front of the ball, FC Seoul would not ignore Tao Wentao this time.
After Ben Alpha and Tao Wentao discussed it, they simply gave Ben Alpha the punishment.
As a result, Ben Alpha's free kick was slightly higher than the crossbar, and he missed a very good set-kick opportunity.
Choi Yong-soo on the sidelines was also very decisive. Zhu Sejong's performance had sounded the alarm for him - the team's physical fitness was about to enter a bottleneck period.
Cui Yongzhu replaced Zhu Shizhong with Shen Yuran, who can play as a defender and midfielder, and let this tall player who is 1.97 meters tall come up to surround Nie Jiang.
Under normal circumstances, Choi Yong-soo's substitution is no problem. Replacing a new player who is focused on nothing can indeed be better than the previous players who were worried about gains and losses. However, sometimes such a simple substitution cannot make up for the tactical disadvantage.
Thirty-seven minutes into the second half, Nie Jiang's diagonal run to the right attracted the attention of Shen Yuran. In order to implement Cui Yongzhu's tactics, even another defensive midfielder Osmar also shortened the distance from Shen Yuran. Prevent Nie Jiang from breaking through at any time and do a good job of second-level defense.
At this time, Chavez also cleverly ran out of the penalty area and stood where Osmar left. As the center back, Kim Won-sik had to leave the penalty area at the same time to follow Chavez.
After Nie Jiang got the ball, he did not make a breakthrough with the ball as he imagined. Instead, he knocked the ball back to Tao Wentao steadily.
Before Tao Wentao received the ball from Nie Jiang, he had already observed the status of Ben Alpha on the left. Facing the incoming ball, he moved the ball from a long distance and directly handed the ball to the left, while Ben Alpha was running very fast at this time. sprinted towards the right penalty area of FC Seoul.
FC Seoul's Go Yaohan on the right wing had no talent. Alpha was fast, not to mention starting a step late, so he could only watch as Ben. Alpha rushed all the way into the penalty area.
Zhang Sheng's previous tactical arrangement relied on Nie Jiang's diagonal running to attract the opponent's defensive focus. At the same time, Chavez drew out one of the opponent's center backs, forcing Seoul FC's remaining two center backs to tighten the distance, exposing The gap on the side road.
This tactic was successful this time. When Ben Alpha took the ball from the wing into the penalty area, no one followed him.
Just after entering the penalty area, Ben Alpha made a shot. When Jin Dongyou subconsciously raised his leg to block it, Ben Alpha made a spiking motion, completely evading Jin Dongyou's defense. He decisively The shot was fired, and the ball was traveling very fast. When Ryu Sang-hoon made the save, the ball passed through Ryu Sang-hoon's legs and entered the goal.
Ben Alpha's shot passed through the wicket and the gate.
This goal also widened the score gap between Longteng and FC Seoul to 3:0.
The advantage of playing at home, the upper hand in physical fitness, and the little game time left means that this high-profile battle may repeat the situation of the year - the Dragons once again defeated FC Seoul by a big score.
