Although China is suspended, as the summer window of the 2o16 season is approaching, rumors about transfers are endless.
Many stars from the European League have been linked to the Chinese League.
At the same time, some players who were unhappy in their clubs, or who thought they were "not a good deal" compared to the clubs that lured them, began to have thoughts.
These players include two of Long Teng's former absolute main players - captain Zhou Zhou and midfielder Yu Bo.
As the summoned players who followed Zhang Sheng in the early days, Zhou Zhou, Yu Bo and Xiao Yunfan came together. They were called the "Three Misplaced Musketeers" by Zhang Sheng and made great contributions to Longteng Club's upgrade and championship.
However, the improvement of the team's overall level and the continuous upgrading of Zhang Sheng's tactics have gradually brought them to the edge of elimination.
But being eliminated by the Dragons doesn't mean there is a problem with their ability.
Although with the rapid growth of the Chinese League, the overall level of Chinese domestic players has improved significantly, but Zhou Zhou's ability value/potential value of 75/75 and Yu Bo's ability value and potential value of 76/76 cannot be said to be in the Chinese national team.
There is definitely a place for them, and there is no problem as a qualified substitute. As for the Chinese League, no matter which team they go to - except for the Dragons and Guangzhou Evergrande - they can definitely get a main position.
When the news that Zhou Zhou and Yu Bo wanted to leave the team came out, all the wealthy Chinese clubs flocked to the team. Such a major event certainly did not escape the attention of the media, and various sports media and self-media also paid attention to it.
reported the incident.
If it was a year ago, fans would still be agitated for such a transfer. After all, Zhou Zhou and Yu Bo are both regular players of the national team, and they were even the main players before. But now they are much calmer: "Isn't it just selling the captain?
It’s news that the Dragon Team doesn’t sell its captain. What’s being sold this time is just the first captain and the fourth captain. It doesn’t have the excitement of selling the captain and vice-captain together before.”
Compared with transfer rumors, the domestic media are now paying more attention to the warm-up match between the Chinese national team and the Chinese Olympic team.
Among the two warm-up matches, the match against Trinidad and Tobago attracted special attention. Because the only time the national football team qualified was in the Shanghai Four Nations Tournament before the top ten preliminaries of the 2001 World Cup.
They once defeated Trinidad and Tobago 3:0. That victory greatly enhanced the confidence of the national football team, and they finally broke through the top ten and reached the World Cup finals. This time, they arranged to compete with Trinidad and Tobago again.
Nida and Tobago are warming up. In addition to Perrin considering the subsequent play-offs, the Football Association, which has always liked "good omens", may hope to repeat the qualifying trajectory of the year.
However, this time Trinidad and Tobago sent a second team dominated by youth players, and judging from their performance on the field, they looked like "I'm just here for a trip, excuse me!" during the game.
The pace of the game was extremely slow, and Perrin wanted to use the opponent to practice how to defend the Central and North American teams, which made the audience extremely depressed. Although in the end, the Chinese team defeated the opponent with a score of 4:0.
, what is reflected is the display of individual abilities in the team, and there is no exquisite coordination and clear tactics.
Another match against Kazakhstan Tower was even more lackluster. The opponent was not strong and was weaker than the previous Trinidad and Tobago team. The Chinese team made a lot of rotations and still won easily with 3:o.
However, the Chinese Olympic team, which is preparing for the upcoming Olympic football match, chose two very high-quality games this time. The two strong teams from Europe and America they chose were a preparation for their European and American opponents in the group stage.
warm up.
With the end of the international match day, the Chinese League has begun to reignite the war.
After a two-week break, the players from the national team and the Olympic team in the Longteng team finally breathed a sigh of relief. As for the other players who were not selected, they took a good rest. What made people even more happy was Ni Kai.
His return from injury has given the Longteng team a good complement to the midfield and frontcourt on the left.
Longteng, who was in improved form, faced Shijiazhuang Yongchang at home and easily won 2:0 with Ben Arfa and Nie Jiang scoring a goal each.
This victory for the Dragons bodes well for the upcoming China-Strength dialogue.
In order to make way for the national team's World Cup preliminaries, the 21st round of the season was moved forward to June 15th, so Long Teng
After the last round of games, the team will play Guangzhou Evergrande at home in a double match a week.
Both sides attach great importance to this game, because as a strong competition for the Chinese championship, the clash between the two teams will definitely be a six-point game.
If it were in the past, everyone would still have reservations about the first half of the league. After all, there are still many games to catch up with, but after this advance, once it reaches the second half, when the two teams are closely tied for points,
Any chance of obtaining counter-reaction through direct dialogue is gone.
As old rivals, there was no nonsense between the two sides before the game. The topics that reporters should dig up have already been dug up. Now they are more concerned about the signings and transfers of the two teams.
Reporters have the tenacity to keep asking whether this star is coming and when that star will arrive, but the head coaches on both sides are also seasoned, and they excuse themselves with "not sure yet", "never heard of it", etc.
Outside of the words, no tone is revealed.
During the game, both sides also fully displayed their own characteristics. The Longteng team relied on the advantage of their home court and frantically pressed Guangzhou Evergrande from the first second of the game. Guangzhou Evergrande showed
It has great pressure resistance. Although there are many veterans in the team, the performance is a bit dull, but the veterans have the advantage of veterans, that is, they can stay calm in times of crisis.
In the fifth minute of the first half, Guangzhou Evergrande saw Xiang Tiange rushing to the front. After they kicked the ball into the frontcourt, the Longteng team immediately formed a siege, with Du Zhenyu, Ma Yongli and Tao Wentao on the right.
Alan was flanked by others, and the latter, after being unable to pass forward, handed the ball to Goulart, who was responding. As soon as Goulart got the ball, Tao Wentao and Ma Yongli turned around and ran over. At the same time, Luo Kejier also passed the ball to Goulart.
Rat pushed back.
Goulart's reaction was also very fast. He didn't give the Longteng team a chance to steal, and quickly passed the ball to Paulinho. This time the Longteng team's pressing was even stricter. Rock Gill put Goulart to the
Ma Yongli came over to defend, and he and Tao Wentao rushed to guard Paulinho. At the same time, Qi Ming was beside Paulinho to guard against his short passes, and Ben Arfa was stuck on the wing to guard against his long passes.
pass.
In the end, Paulinho could only pass the ball back to his centre-back, turning a quick long pass back into a positional battle.
This time both sides showed their offensive and defensive skills.
The Longteng team was as fast as the wind and clear-cut in pressing the whole court, while Guangzhou Evergrande was as steady as a mountain. Of course, only these two teams with top overall strength can play like this.
scene.
If other teams face Guangzhou Evergrande, they will never have such a cobweb-like defense. Evergrande has long used the movement of the Brazilian Trident to open up shooting opportunities. And if it were another team facing
The Longteng team pressed like a storm and lost the ball long ago. And with the team's full pressure when switching from defense to attack, the Longteng team must be a quick counterattack with great threats.
In fact, the offensive and defensive confrontation between the two sides was also the keynote of the entire game - the Longteng team focused on attacking and Guangzhou Evergrande focused on defensive counterattacks.
In the ninth minute of the first half, the Longteng team continued to exert pressure on the left. Ben Alpha relied on his personal ability to dribble the ball forward, and then saw two people from Guangzhou Evergrande defending. He brought the ball back and defended.
When the player rushed over, he stepped on the ball lightly and turned around, throwing away both defenders.
After getting rid of the defensive player, Ben Arfa suddenly opened up a huge gap on the left side of Guangzhou Evergrande. As a forward, Goulart desperately chased back and knocked down Ben Arfa with a tackle. After eating a
After the yellow card, he blocked the Longteng team's attack.
Goulart's tackle was wildly booed by tens of thousands of fans at home. Such a foul must be extremely unpleasant from the perspective of Longteng fans. In their opinion, it should be directly sent off with a red card.
.
As Zengcheng caught Ben Arfa's free kick in the frontcourt, the Longteng team's offense came to an abrupt end.
The Longteng team almost succeeded in the full-court pressure and tasted the sweetness. The players attacked more fiercely and the overall formation also pressed harder.
In the 12th minute, Nie Jiang and Zou Weijia's pressing in the frontcourt caused Guangzhou Evergrande to pass the ball to the Longteng half with a big kick. Du Zhenyu easily grabbed the ball and handed it to Ma Yongli.
, Ma Yong
Li first played a one-two with Qi Ming in the middle, and then he actually dribbled the ball forward.
Guangzhou Evergrande obviously did not expect Ma Yongli to make such a move.
In this game, Guangzhou Evergrande's midfielder position was Zheng Zhi, not Lin Feng. If Lin Feng was here, he would definitely be very familiar with this scene. Because Ma Yongli's central defender is a common player in the Longteng team's tactical drills.
It is a very hidden routine that is not commonly used in competitions, but as Lin Feng was the former captain of the Dragon Team, he is very familiar with Ma Yongli's routine.
Zheng Zhi, who didn't react at the first moment, was stunned for a moment and didn't step up to participate in the defense. Just for a moment, Ma Yongli, who was not caught in the defense, broke through with the ball.
Ma Yongli's dribbling breakthrough not only allowed the Longteng team's offensive line to enter Guangzhou Evergrande's 30-meter line, but more importantly, he completely disrupted Guangzhou Evergrande's defensive formation.
When Ma Yongli passed the ball to Ben Alpha on the wing, there was only one person defending Ben Alpha who was already up.
In the game, as long as it is a game against the Longteng team, as long as Ben Arfa is on the court, putting at least two defensive players to defend him is a bloody lesson that the Longteng team's opponents have learned by conceding the ball again and again.
Soon Guangzhou Evergrande was punished.
Ben Alpha's change of direction when dribbling the ball at a high speed passed Shu Jun, and at the same time, Guangzhou Evergrande's already chaotic defense was completely broken up. Then he did not insist on shooting, but attracted Guangzhou Evergrande's defense.
After the attention of the three defensive players, they accurately found Nie Jiang with an inverted triangle pass. Although Zengcheng tried his best to save Nie Jiang's shot, he could not stop Tao Wentao's subsequent follow-up shot.
, the Longteng team led Guangzhou Evergrande 1:o at their home court.
Liu Jianhong, who was in charge of the commentary, shouted routinely: "It's in, it's in, it's in. It's Tao Wentao's shot." After that, he also paid attention to the Longteng team's offensive tactics, "Ma Yongli's sudden advance was too much.
It’s fatal, Guangzhou Evergrande didn’t expect it at all.”
Huang Jianxiang, who is responsible for partnering with Liu Jianhong, laughed and said: "The Dragons have always been famous in China for their many offensive methods. When Li Yun was still in the Dragons, his forward penetration was a tried and tested trump card of the Dragons. After Li Yun left,
Although the Longteng team uses this trick less often, it is not the first time that Ma Yongli has used this trick. In the final analysis, the Longteng team has too many players who can dribble the ball forward."
"The team with the best skills in China is not a name for nothing." Liu Jianhong agreed with a smile, then expressed his worries about Guangzhou Evergrande, "Evergrande's offense is a bit difficult to attack, and the Longteng team's midfielder
The three midfielders are all players who can attack and defend, and the sweeping area is too large. The two wingers have strong offensive power. It depends on how Evergrande adjusts."
The Longteng team's goal did not make Evergrande coach Luiz Felipe Scolari have too many emotional changes on the sidelines. He just made a gesture of pressing down with both hands on the court to ask the players to stabilize.
The Evergrande players on the field performed extremely steadily after the kick-off again. They did not rush to equalize because they were behind by one goal. They were very patient in backcourt. Even if they pushed the attack into the midfield, there was no good result.
If there is an opportunity, they will also stabilize it first before making any plans.
Even with the ball in hand, the Longteng team did not give up their previous style of play. They still maintained their crazy-dog pressing and high-position pressing attack.
In the 18th minute of the first half, the Longteng team once again got a chance to counterattack in the midfield through pressing. Qi Ming, who was playing in the left midfield, picked up the ball and immediately transferred the ball to the right wing with a big kick.
Xiang Tiange, who took advantage of his speed to the limit, ran wildly along the sideline and caught Qi Ming's seemingly oversized ball.
After Xiang Tiange got the ball, he did not continue to walk toward the baseline, but started to cut inward horizontally.
Qi Ming's pass was very sudden, which caused Xiang Tiange to cut inward laterally while holding the ball. Guangzhou Evergrande's defense in front of the penalty area was not very intensive, which gave Xiang Tiange a good chance to shoot.
Xiang Tiange did not waste this opportunity. He continuously adjusted his pace and then shot decisively.
After the ball hit Xiang Tiange, it took a slight arc and went straight to the left side of the goal. In the end, it almost missed the root of the left goalpost and flew out of the baseline.
