For this game, LeTV Sports has formed an extremely large commentary team. Taking into account the difficulty of fans' opinions, the broadcast of this game has multiple commentaries. The main line is led by Huang Jianxiang, Zhang Sheng's old friend Li Gang, and Tianjin famous star
Yu Genwei is a three-person team-up, and there are many choices for branch lines, including cross talk commentary by Li Xin and Dong Lu, and a dedicated Cantonese commentary...
But now, without exception, they all look anxious.
"This is too passive." Huang Jianxiang wished he could replace Perlan now, "Defensive counterattack, defensive counterattack, only defense without counterattack, it will definitely be useless in the end. Qin Minghao in the midfield and Nie Jiang in the striker are very divided.
If they open, there must be other players to help them with the ball and share the firepower."
"There is too much money in the backcourt, and it is too difficult to share the burden." Li Gang, who was also anxious, spoke Northeastern Mandarin. If it were other times, everyone would be absolutely amused, but now no one has the time to care about it.
The commentators were anxious, but Perrin felt very satisfied at this time. More than thirty minutes had passed in the first half, and the score was still 0:0. The expected goal of not conceding a goal in the first half was just around the corner.
Since taking over the Chinese national team, the team led by Perrin has always been very solid defensively, and the defensive intensity in the midfield is a guarantee for the team to advance to the top 12.
It cannot be said that Perrin's idea was too wrong. Whether it was the Asian Cup when he took over or the subsequent warm-up matches of the qualifiers, there were very few who could completely break down the Chinese team's defense.
But he forgot one thing, that is, the intensity of the top 12 matches was far beyond his imagination.
Forty minutes into the first half, the Chinese team, which was tired of defending, obviously had physical problems with its players. This situation has been very rare in recent years.
In recent years, the Chinese Super League has played a much higher level of competition than ever before, making most domestic players accustomed to the high level of intensity of competition in Asia, and the players who can be selected for the Chinese national team are the best among them.
Perrin had a good idea to hold on to the first half and drag out the second half. However, his shortcomings of inexperience as a national team head coach were immediately exposed - there is a big difference between those who have experienced the second stage of the qualifiers and those who have not.
, without the atmosphere of giving everything for a World Cup spot and dedicating everything for national honor, you will never realize how much such an environment consumes physical energy.
When Perrin thought he could pass the last few minutes of the first half smoothly, the South Korean team actually stepped up the pace after a high-intensity 40-minute game.
In the 41st minute, after Son Heung-min and his teammates continued to pass the ball together, they suddenly started a high-speed change of direction on the left, leaving Zhang Linpeng, who was already suffering from physical problems, completely helpless. This breakthrough earned Zhang Linpeng a tactical foul penalty.
With a yellow card, the South Korean team also got an excellent free kick opportunity in front of the penalty area.
Although Li Yun's header in the penalty area saved the Korean team's free kick, as the only one who could play the ball on the back line and push the Chinese team's defense slightly, he had to frequently help those with yellow cards.
Zhang Linpeng took over, and the Chinese team's defense was crushed even further.
Several commentators also see the Chinese team's dilemma very clearly.
"Hold on. There are less than five minutes left in the first half." Huang Jianxiang was extremely anxious. "Nie Jiang even ran to half-court to defend. What should we do to counterattack?"
Li Gang took over the conversation: "Let's hold on for now, we will definitely have to adjust in the second half."
Yu Genwei, who has always said little, also interjected: "The Japanese and Korean teams' three strikes before halftime are their old routine. They were like this when we played against them, and they are still like this now. Coach Perlan should have
That’s what you’re prepared for.”
At this time, the commentator on the South Korean team kept cheering for his team: "They have problems with their physical fitness. This is an old problem of the Chinese team. We must seize this opportunity."
While the commentator was analyzing the sound, the South Korean team played a rough and fine offensive combination. First, Son Heung-min attracted the defense of Zhang Linpeng, Li Yun and even Zheng Zhi on the left. Then he relied on his strong personal ability to withstand the defense.
The ball was accurately distributed to Wu Jaesuk who was in charge, and the latter quickly distributed the ball to the right. At this time, only Shu Jun was defending on the left side of the Chinese team.
If Zhang Linpeng can still rely on his own body to fight against Son Heung-min and barely defend, then when Shu Jun on the left side of the Chinese team faces Ji Dongyuan, whether it is body, speed, technology or consciousness, he is comprehensive
Lost ground.
Shu Jun, who mustered up the courage to defend, was easily shaken by Chi Dongyuan as expected. All Shu Jun could do was knock Chi Dongyuan down from behind. Like Zhang Linpeng, Shu Jun also received a yellow card.
Before the half ended, both wing-backs received yellow cards. It can be said that Perrin's defensive tactics were on the verge of collapse.
After receiving a free kick on the right, the Korean team arranged its tactics slowly and with great experience, waiting until the stoppage time of the first half was about to end, and prepared to hit the buzzer.
In this free kick, the Korean team sent as many as seven players into the Chinese team's penalty area. In fact, this is also a characteristic of the Korean team's set-piece tactics.
"Shu Jun also received a yellow card. The two wings of the Chinese team became the focus of the Korean team's attack." Huang Jianxiang suddenly had a bad feeling, "If we play like this, sooner or later we will lose the ball."
"We have to hold on." Li Gang encouraged the players on the field. "The stoppage time of the first half has passed. This is the last attack of the Korean team."
"Yes. We are tired, and so are they. Anyone who has experienced the intensity of the top 12 matches will understand that the Korean team is also playing football with all its breath." This is the only time in history that the Chinese team has entered the World Cup.
Yu Genwei was a witness to that top ten game, and he has the best say about it. "We can't vent our anger."
When Son Heung-min's ball came out, the two people who had just received the yellow card were obviously affected. They reached a limit both mentally and physically. First, Shu Jun missed the ball in front and failed to block it.
Then Zhang Linpeng failed to block Li Qinglong's position, allowing the latter to header the ball into the far corner.
The Korean team used a fierce attack before the end of the first half to break the deadlock and turn the score into 1:0.
"Oops!" Huang Jianxiang said with regret on his face, "We lost the ball. There were consecutive missed balls and missed shots in the penalty area. Zengcheng saved many shots before, but this time he couldn't save it."
"This goal conceded is very bad." Li Gang, who was already dark-faced, looked even darker now. "Conceding the goal in stoppage time in the first half not only means falling behind, it also has a huge impact on the team's morale.
big."
"Now we can only hope for adjustments in the midfield." In fact, Yu Genwei doesn't believe that Perrin has any means to save the current situation. If there is a way, a capable head coach should make it in the first half.
Adjusted.
As the referee's whistle blew, the first half ended.
The players of the Korean team were obviously in high spirits. Although Son Heung-min did not score, he walked off the field chatting and laughing with Li Qingyong who scored the goal. As for the Chinese team, the captain Zheng Zhi did not know whether he lost the ball or not.
Although he was happy and tired, he looked like he didn't have much energy. Li Yun pulled Qin Minghao to his side and said something cautiously, while the other players walked to the locker room with their heads lowered.
In the Chinese team's locker room, from Perrin's face, he could not tell that being behind by one goal had any impact on him. He looked indifferent. Maybe he could really accept the 0:1 score.
After the players had changed their clothes, Perrin began to lay out the tasks for the second half: "Losing a goal is not a big deal. Our goal before the game is to maintain a tie and strive to concede fewer goals. The top 12 games are a long process, and some
We have to make a choice on the road."
"In the second half, we..." Before Peilan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Yun.
Li Yun raised his hand and said, "Mr. Coach, I have something to say."
Peilan glanced at Li Yun, pressed his hands down, stopped Li Yun from continuing to speak, and then said: "I know what you mean, but I have already said the overall strategy, keep the third place in the group, and strive for the second place in the group
This is the goal we have set long ago. So it is very important to concede fewer goals and maintain a goal difference at home in South Korea and Iran. In the second half, we will continue to play defensive counterattacks. Zhang Linpeng and Shu Jun, you must pay attention to your actions.
Stop cheating."
"I think our defense should be more flexible." Li Yun did not give up his opinion. After Perrin finished laying out the tactics, he still insisted on putting forward his opinion.
In fact, Li Yun had communicated with Perrin privately before this game. He believed that it would be better to maintain a certain amount of attackers in the frontcourt, press high and commit timely fouls, rather than leaving a bunch of defenders to defend.
However, Peilan did not quite agree with Li Yun's statement. The preparation for the Olympics in the middle of the competition prevented the absolute main players such as Nie Jiang and Zou Weijia from participating in the national team training. This resulted in them not having much cooperative training with other players. In addition, the Longteng team
With Guangzhou Evergrande competing on multiple fronts in the AFC Champions League and FA Cup, the physical fitness of the national players is also very worrying.
Based on these two concerns, Perrin believes that high-position pressing, a tactic that requires proficiency in coordination and extremely physical requirements, is simply not suitable for the current Chinese team.
Therefore, choosing to stick to it became Perrin's safest approach.
And even if losing to South Korea, the strongest team in the group, in an away game is not a big deal, try to draw or concede fewer goals at home in South Korea and Iran, and win back at home; at the same time, grab points from other teams in the group and pass the net
Using the advantage of winning the ball to gain position is Perrin's long-planned idea for the top 12 tournament.
Seeing Peilan's calm but determined expression, Li Yun stopped talking but stopped.
After the start of the second half, the South Korean team continued the tactics of the first half. They continued to attack the two sides of the Chinese team. Peilan made corresponding countermeasures. Feng Xiaoting and Ma Yongli went to the two sides to help Zhang Linpeng and Shu Jun defend. Li
Yun made up the position, and at the same time Zheng Zhi frequently retreated from the midfielder to wipe the back line. Coupled with Zengcheng's outstanding performance, for a while, after the halftime break, the Chinese team, which had recovered its physical fitness, was able to hold on firmly.
Your own door.
The goal was barely held, but several commentators were unhappy.
"There is no adjustment in the midfield." Huang Jianxiang was obviously very dissatisfied. "I think this is worth discussing."
Li Gang is obviously someone who is not afraid of trouble: "It's clear that we don't want to win when we fight like this. The situation on the field is not only about the gap in strength, I think there is something wrong with my thinking."
"Now the Chinese team's front and backcourt are completely out of touch." Yu Genwei brought the topic back to the court, "Zou Weijia has nothing to do in the frontcourt. Even if he gets the ball, he doesn't know who to give it to. Nie Jiang is isolated and helpless.
His advantage of flexible movement cannot be used at all."
While several commentators were discussing the Chinese team's tactics, under the command of Li Yun, the Chinese team launched a rare attack.
This time, Li Yun and Zheng Zhi jointly intercepted the ball from Gu Zizhe in the backcourt, and then the former passed the ball to Qin Minghao, who was speeding forward in the midfield. The latter also knew that the Korean team would definitely not let him
He took the ball and passed it comfortably. When the ball came, he didn't make any pause and kicked the ball directly. The football changed direction and flew to the right wing.
Nie Jiang's speed took advantage of him at this time. Because the South Korean team pressed up to attack, the two full-backs were very forward. When Nie Jiang reversed, Wu Zaisuo was actually thrown away by Nie Jiang.
As a young player, he mainly plays right back in the club, and he has never played in a World Cup qualifying match. This is just because the Korean team really does not have a good left back available (the strongest Kim Jin-soo is in Hoffen
Heim has been on the bench for a long time and was not selected for the national team). Oh Jaesuk was forced to the left back position by Stillik. It can be said that he is the biggest variable in the Korean team's defense.
In this attack, Nie Jiang chose the points that were arranged before the game and targeted Wu Zaisuo's back.
"Nie Jiang got the ball on the right, no one was defending, and the Korean team's left was empty." Huang Jianxiang also dismissed his previous doubts about the team's tactics, "This is a good opportunity."
The football was controlled by Nie Jiang and was in a relatively reasonable position. Facing the interception by Youhong in front and the desperate pursuit by Wu Zaisuo in the back, Nie Jiang calmly made a change of direction while dribbling the ball at high speed.
.
Hong Zhengzheng stood firm and was not caught by Nie Jiang's first fake move to change direction, but Nie Jiang's next move to pass the ball to Zou Weijia forced Hong Zhengzheng to come up and block it. Unfortunately, this time
Nie Jiang is still a fake act.
After making the pass, Nie Jiang suddenly passed the ball and dunked it past Hong Zhengzheng's frontal defense. He had the opportunity to break into the South Korean team's penalty area directly.
"Beautiful fake move." Huang Jianxiang shouted loudly, "Continuous changes of direction, fake passes, Nie Jiang is about to break through."
"Oops. Wu Zaisuo tripped Nie Jiang from behind. This is a tactical foul. It will definitely result in a card, or even a red card!" Li Gang couldn't wait to go on the court to test the referee's pressure.
"Yellow card. The referee warned Wu Zaisuo a few words." Yu Genwei also felt very sorry. It would have been better if the opponent had been sent off directly with a red card. "But the Chinese team got a very good free kick. The most important thing is,
Finally, everyone doesn’t have to be suppressed all the time and can take a breather.”
"You must seize the opportunity of set pieces." Huang Jianxiang said his expectations.
