Uzbekistan's offense and defense are both very unique.
The central defender combination composed of the "Chinese Super League duo" Ismailov and Klimets is tall and has excellent air defense capabilities against high balls. The two wing defenders like assists extremely much. In three games, the total of the two wings is as high as
The 73% attack ratio shows that this team relies heavily on wing tactics.
However, the reliance of the offense on the wing will inevitably expose a fatal weakness, that is, the space behind the full-back. Once the pace of the game becomes faster, or the counterattack is timely, it will be difficult for Uzbekistan's full-backs to fight against the fast-paced opponent.
Complete the transition between offense and defense in a timely manner during the attack, especially on your right.
In the first three games, Uzbekistan suffered many shots from the opponent because of the failure of defense on the right wing. The goal conceded against Iran was also a mistake made on this wing.
For Uzbekistan, which attaches great importance to wing offense, the lack of wing players' abilities puts the team's offense and defense in a very embarrassing situation. At this time, the weaknesses of the tall Klimets and Ismailov are
came out, because the two tall central defenders will undoubtedly be slower than the opponent in their lateral movement to cover and turn around to chase. In order to solve this problem, another measure chosen by Uzbekistan's head coach Babayan is to let midfielder Heidarov return.
He takes the supplementary position, but Hedarov has to mark the opponent running through the middle, and he often cannot return to his position.
The reason why Heidarov's task is so heavy is that Uzbekistan's offense is extremely dependent on Akhmedov. As an organizational midfielder, he must often move forward to participate in the offensive organization. Heidarov must give him
To fill the position, you can imagine that a midfielder has to fill the position for the central defender and the two full-backs. At the same time, he must also wipe the butt of the organizational midfielder in front of him. He is not very outstanding in strength and often loses sight of one thing.
.
Akhmedov needs to step forward so frequently because of the incompetence of other players and the poor tactical details of head coach Babayan.
Babayan, who specializes in 4-2-3-1 tactics, is actually at the same level as most local Chinese coaches who can coach in the Chinese Super League. With such an outstanding midfielder as Ahmedov, he will use all his
The bets are all on him. This is also the peak level of a head coach in Asia. Relying on one star player to play single-core tactics, he can do anything when encountering a weak team, but he is at a loss when encountering a strong team.
Of course, Babayan has his own difficulties. Look at his main forward, Sergeyev, who is useless in Beijing Guoan. He has played 14 times in the Chinese Super League and only scored 1 goal. To be honest, at this level
, which is far from Nie Jiang's substitute Wu Lei. If you look at the 3 in 4-2-3-1, in addition to Jeparov's excellent footwork and the ability to take one or two free kicks,
His passing and movement are very average, so Baba Yang has no choice but to use him as an attacking midfielder because other players are even worse.
Compared to Asia's top teams, the players are average and the head coach can only circle around this 4-2-3-1 formation - the only novelty is to use the wing to attack and then transfer the ball to the center to let the team
The players here shoot long shots from the center. Such a team is really not good enough when facing Lippi.
Only ten minutes into the game, the Chinese team relied on high pressure and midfielder pull, and already had three consecutive shots.
"This game reminds me of our home game against Uzbekistan in the top ten in 2001." He Wei is still the host of this game. "At that time, we also got the advantage in the midfield and kept attacking.
The opponent's two wings hope that this game will have the same result as that one."
"I remember that we won 2-0 at home in that game. Li Weifeng and General Fan each scored a goal." Xu Yang, his partner, blurted out about the score and goal scorer at that time, "I believe that the boys of the national football team will not compete.
Their seniors are inferior."
The Chinese team's successive attacks made the Chinese fans watching the game full of confidence in the victory of this game.
However, at the 27th minute of the first half, injuries occurred on the Chinese team. Ding Huaiyi was hit by an opponent's defensive player on his left knee during the attack and was forced to come off the field. Moreover, the injury this time was not serious.
Although there was no fracture, the bone contusion was at least minimal. Lippi could only frown and replace Ding Huaiyi with Wu Lei.
"Ding Huaiyi was carried away." He Wei also looked worried, "I hope there won't be any big problems. Xiao Ding is the first choice on the left side of the Chinese team."
Xu Yang was even more worried about the impact of the injury on Ding Huaiyi: "The injury is not serious. Technical players are most afraid of injuries like this. God must bless our football wizard."
After Ding Huaiyi came off the field, the Chinese team's offense fell silent for a while. After all, Wu Lei still needed time to adapt. But then Wu Lei's characteristics were fully explored by Lippi. He took advantage of Wu Lei's first touch of the ball.
With his top-notch explosive power, he frequently hit the back of Uzbekistan's right back. Tukhtahujayev, who had just received a yellow card on Ding Huaiyi, did not dare to make a mistake and could only let Heydarov come over to fill the position.
This left Uzbekistan's center wide open.
In the 42nd minute of the first half, Uzbekistan was punished. Deparov, who was returning to defense, was forced to commit a tactical foul on Qin Minghao. Not only did he receive a yellow card, but he also gave the Chinese team a very well-positioned free kick.
.
"This is an opportunity." He Wei is looking forward to it very much. "Qin Minghao and Xu Mingyu of the Chinese team both have good free kick skills. The distance of 23 to 4 meters and slightly off the center is considered the best position.
Already."
"If Uzbekistan does not solve the problem of wing defense, there will be many free kicks like this." Xu Yang looked further, "But we must seize every opportunity."
As expected, it was Qin Minghao and Xu Mingyu who were responsible for taking the free kick. After they stood in front of the ball to discuss for a while, they started to cooperate. After Qin Minghao ran, Xu Mingyu also ran, but Xu Mingyu stopped halfway.
He stopped, but Qin Minghao did not pause, rushed towards the football and kicked the ball out.
Under Qin Minghao's blow, the football bypassed the wall and flew directly to the weak hand of Uzbekistan goalkeeper Lobarov. By the time he rushed over, standing slightly to the left, it was already too late. In the end, Qin Minghao's kick
A curve ball broke the deadlock for the Chinese team.
"Finally a goal was scored." He Wei announced the score with a smile on his face, "The Chinese team led 1:0, and this goal came earlier than the previous game. Qin Minghao scored his first goal in the top 12
A goal."
"Qin Minghao basically suppressed Akhmedov throughout the first half. Lippi's tactical training was really top-notch." As a person who understands football, Xu Yang best understands what Lippi brings to the team.
change.
When the first half ended, Uzbekistan, whose tactics were completely suppressed, could barely hold on to a 0:1 score.
During the intermission, Zhang Sheng and Lippi received a piece of unfortunate news: Ding Huaiyi's bones were not broken, but he had a bone contusion and needed at least a month of rest.
Zhang Sheng also let out a long sigh. He knew Ding Huaiyi's hardships in pursuing football and his perseverance. He very much hoped that this player who had great talent but could only become a monk halfway could have a stable career.
After the start of the second half, Uzbekistan's head coach Babayan made a substitution adjustment. Tukhtahujaev, who had a yellow card, was replaced by Hashimov, and a young player was replaced by an old player.
, the intention of desperately defending the half court is very obvious.
At the same time, Baba Yang stepped up his pressure on Qin Minghao in the midfield, hoping to interrupt the Chinese team's rhythm by restricting him.
In the first ten minutes of the second half, the Uzbekistan team could still rely on its good physical fitness and constant fouls to stop the Chinese team's attack. However, both Haidarov and the new Hashimov received yellow cards.
Finally, their defense line seemed to be crumbling.
"Wu Lei performed very well today." He Wei was happy to see another player from the Chinese team playing in good form. "His breakthrough threat on the left is great."
"Wu Lei's performance in Shanghai SIPG this season is also very good. He has now scored 14 goals in the Chinese Super League. The league has not yet ended, and the number of goals has been equal to last year. If there are still more goals in the next games,
If he scores the ball, he will break his own Chinese Super League scoring record." Xu Yang took over the topic, "Being able to play with an outstanding player like Hulk will make a lot of progress. It is said that SIPG will make great progress next season.
The team still has great talent, and I hope he can learn more and grow faster."
Zhang Sheng, who was watching the game, also admired this player. What he didn't know was that Wu Lei would explode in the 2018 season, defeating countless outstanding foreign players and winning the top scorer of the Chinese Super League that year. And Zhang Sheng
The emergence of the league has led to an improvement in the overall level of the league. Players like Wu Lei have also risen with the tide and developed better than in history.
As the game progressed, Qin Minghao cleverly handed more possession of the ball to Zheng Zhilai, who was behind in the organization. Uzbekistan's midfield formation was forced to stretch longer. The Chinese team took advantage of this feature and once again used rapid advancement.
As a result, their center back Ismailov fouled in front of the penalty area. While receiving a yellow card, he gave the Chinese team a free kick that was in a better position than the previous one.
"Is this a penalty kick?" Because the Chinese team's offense advanced very quickly, He Wei didn't see it clearly and thought the ball in front of the penalty area was a penalty kick. "Oh! It almost entered the penalty area, it was a free kick.
, but this position is very good. Let’s see if Qin Minghao can score twice from a free kick.”
"If this is the case, it will become a good story." Xu Yang said with a smile, "As far as I know, only Lu Bofei in the 2012 season has a record of scoring two free kicks in a game in the Chinese Super League. The national team has not yet.
.Of course, we are also looking forward to having players break this record."
For this free kick, Qin Minghao chose a different shooting method. Because of his position, he stood alone in front of the ball. After carefully observing the wall, he chose a powerful low shot.
Xu Mingyu, who was standing in the wall of people, jumped up knowingly.
The ball flew towards the Uzbekistan team's goal at high speed. Lobarov used his ability to save the ball this time and used his long legs to block the ball out of the goal. However, this was only a temporary safety and the ball bounced to
After entering the penalty area, it was the Chinese team player who grabbed the second shot. At this time, everyone did not see who it was at all. They only saw him making a follow-up shot, past Lobarov, who was lying on the ground in despair. Football
It flew steadily into the goal.
"Qin Minghao! It was saved." He Wei shouted with regret, and then roared happily, "The follow-up shot! Beautiful! The ball was scored, and China led 2:0. Who is it? Oh, it should be
It's Nie Jiang, he has already rushed out to celebrate."
"Haha, beautiful. After the last game, Nie Jiang scored again." Xu Yang also grinned, "The Chinese team has really suddenly changed. The score of 2:0 basically means that the opponent has no chance.
Already."
"There are still 17 minutes left in the game. We mainly maintain the current situation on the court and have already scored 3 points." He Wei also seemed very relaxed at this time. "To be honest, being able to commentate on two such games of the Chinese team in a row,
I still think it’s in a dream.”
"You are happier than me, and you have given one more commentary than me." The two commentators have already started exchanging commercial compliments.
The change in the core of the Chinese team's playmaker caused Uzbekistan to lose confidence in winning. Babayan first replaced right midfielder Bykmayev with Shukurov. After strengthening the defense on the right, he finally replaced Abduklikov.
Sergeyev, who had been doing nothing throughout the game, was replaced, which was regarded as completing the routine three substitutions.
Lippi's substitutions were more about experimenting with new players. First, Huang He replaced Zhang Linpeng, and then Tao Wentao replaced Xu Mingyu to see if these two players could take over the two main positions.
Judging from the final result, Lippi is still satisfied with the several substitutes, because the Chinese team did not weaken its offensive due to the dismissal of the three main players. Until the end of the game, the Chinese team had the opportunity to score again, but Uzbekistan this time
Bian was determined to defend, and when the referee blew the whistle to end the game, 0:2, the score of home and then guest was displayed on the home team's score screen, and the Chinese team once again won a victory.
After the game, Lippi smoked a cigar elegantly and returned to the hotel with the team. From the photos captured by reporters, you can deeply feel the aura of a big boss.
In the previous post-match press conference, Lippi also seemed very proud. He praised Uzbekistan as a winner and said that the opponent had caused a lot of trouble for him and that he and the team had paid a lot.
His efforts led to victory.
Lippi also reported on Ding Huaiyi's injury. Lippi could not give a definite answer on whether he could make it to the game in November.
The domestic news exploded again. Just like the last game, the news of the Chinese team's victory once again ranked first in the hot search. Various media and self-media began to praise the players who scored goals and the players who assisted.
, praising injured players, praising players who made several wonderful moves, Qualippi, praising several clubs that provide players for the national team, and finally Zhang Sheng was mentioned many times.
A photo of Lippi smoking a cigar was even labeled with a P: "I'm not targeting anyone, I'm saying that everyone here is a jerk."
Several post bars that have always been famous for their high production of jokes, such as the Blame Bar and the Anti-Stress Bar, have also sent out an army of jokers and soul P-picturers to add various screenshots of the game and jokes to make hot searches for the national football team continue.
.
At this time, the horror of football topics swept away all traffic.
