Of course, Evergrande is not without its weaknesses.sthuojia
For the right back position, since Zhang Linpeng went to play in Europe, Shu Jun, who was hired from the Longteng team, has more than enough defense but not enough offense. Compared with Zhang Linpeng's previous strength on the right wing, the gap is still very obvious.
The biggest hidden danger is the absence of captain Zheng Zhi. During the national team's World Cup preliminaries with Iran, Zheng Zhi suffered a strain. If he was a young player, the injury should be over in two weeks, but he is almost 37 years old now.
The veteran's physical function has been unable to withstand the erosion of time. After returning to the club, Zheng Zhi's injury has not been able to recover, and he was not included in the squad at all for this game.
In addition, Huang Bowen was suspended for four yellow cards and Xu Xin was seriously injured in training. Guangzhou Evergrande's midfielder, especially the midfielder position, has a lot of problems.
Before the game, many media mentioned these issues when introducing the "Battle of Tianwangshan" in the Chinese Super League. But when comparing the foreign aid of both sides, the gap is too big.
In the recent international match day, the Brazilian national team showed a terrifying level of dominance in the South American region of the World Cup preliminaries, and Guangzhou Evergrande's foreign aid Paulinho was the most dazzling one among them.
In the match on March 24, Brazil faced Uruguay, the fourth-placed team in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and the top 16 team in the last World Cup in Brazil, with Suarez, sweeping away with 41, while Paulinho completed a hat-trick.
In the match on March 29, the Brazilian team at home defeated the old and strong team Paraguay 3:0, and Paulinho contributed two more assists.
This kind of performance can be said to be top-notch for the Brazilian team.
Fans all joked: "Paulinho has undergone socialist transformation in the mysterious East."
With Paulinho's ability and current state, coupled with top foreign players like Diego Costa and Goulart, compared to the two foreign players of the Dragons in this game, they are younger brothers.
For this reason, Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff had to make tactical adjustments for the team. The usual 352 was compressed into a 361 formation, further strengthening the thickness of the midfield and striving to push the defense away from their own goal.
.
In terms of player selection in the midfield, Zhang Sheng arranged for Qu Wenming, who has a slightly lower ability value but better defense, but Zeng Fusheng, who has stronger offensive attributes, sat on the bench.
Half of Lu Yangyang continued to start, which was an extremely risky move.
Guangzhou Evergrande’s three foreign players, whether they are Paulinho (1.82 meters) or Goulart (1.81 meters), look much stronger than Lu Yangyang, and Diego Costa (1.8 meters)
88) When he stood in front of Lu Yangyang, he looked like a giant who had come to Lilliput, his whole body had grown bigger.
Once Lu Yangyang is left to defend these three players alone, fans can imagine what the scene will be like.
"At the central defender position, coach Zhang Sheng is really determined to insist on using young players." Lou Yicheng, the top commentator of pptv, actually still has some doubts about Zhang Sheng's choice, "His performance will be very good."
It determines the trend of this game to a great extent.”
"Coach Zhang Sheng's success is greatly restricted by his tactics." Liu Yue put forward his unique opinion.
"Oh? What do you say?" Lou Yicheng asked.
Liu Yue then elaborated on his views: "Whether it is the 4231 from the beginning, or the 352 in the past one or two years, or even the 433 that is not used much in daily life, and the 361 in this game, of course this 361 can be regarded as
A variant of 352, there are many changes in the formation, but no matter how coach Zhang Sheng's formation changes, the core idea of insisting on playing with the feet, adhering to technical flow, and controlling the ball has never changed. On the Longteng team's defense, it has always been
There is a player with excellent foot skills and good ball-playing ability. The first was Li Yun. After Li Yun went to play in Europe, it was Ma Yongli. Therefore, when Ma Yongli was injured, the defense must be supplemented by a player.
Defenders with strong ball skills are expected, and the Longteng team’s substitute defender Lilu Yangyang is the best at this point.”
It should be said that Liu Yue worked hard on the Longteng team before the game, and he grasped Zhang Sheng's thoughts on using Lu Yangyang.
At this time, Lu Yangyang was standing in line on the court, feeling extremely excited. The head coach's arrangements were still echoing in his mind: "Don't panic, there is Dawn behind you, and there is also the captain, they will help you."
.At the same time, you have to help them. Your main task is to hold the ball firmly in the backcourt, and then pass the ball out accurately. After they get the ball, they will hand it to you."
Lu Yangyang was both excited and frightened about the important task entrusted to him by the head coach: He must not let down the trust of the head coach.
When the referee blew the whistle to start the game, the first round of the 2017 season officially started. Guangzhou Evergrande, who got the kick-off right, spread out their formation and broke into the Longteng team's half.
Guangzhou Evergrande head coach Luiz Felipe Scolari was not conservative in this game because it was an away game. This season, because Kim Young-kwon was seriously injured before, Evergrande found a replacement for him at center back, Shin Asia Wai Kim Hyung-il. If it happens again
Including Alan, who has been playing as a substitute, there are as many as six foreign players in the Guangzhou Evergrande team. This time Scolari played Paulinho, Diego Costa and Goulart, and his willingness to score three points was extremely obvious.
After the kick-off, Goulart and Diego Costa made a pass and passed the ball to the left. Yu Hanchao quickly received the ball from the left and took two steps to prepare for the bottom. Tao Wen of the Longteng team on the right
Tao, Xiang Tiange and Qiming surrounded each other. One of the three was responsible for attacking, and the remaining two blocked Yu Hanchao's passing route.
After Yu Hanchao protected the ball, he directly raised the ball. The ball was not passed directly to the penalty area, but to the edge of the penalty area. This is where Lu Yangyang is responsible for sweeping. The one who came to target Lu Yangyang was Diego.
Costa.
"This is not a routine operation. Obviously, this should have been specially arranged by him." Zhang Sheng, who was on the sidelines, turned his head slightly and glanced at Scolari, who was standing on the sideline and waving loudly to the court to indicate the forward pressure.
In view of the huge gap in height, Diego Costa jumped up high and grabbed this high-altitude ball that was slightly straight up and down. However, Lu Yangyang did not give up because he was not tall enough. He jumped up hard and grabbed the ball too.
.
"Wow. Lu Yangyang jumped so high." Lou Yicheng exclaimed, "A person of 73 meters tall is only a little shorter than Diego Costa who is 1.88 meters tall. This bounce is too scary. Kos
Ta’s header passed the ball, and Lu Zhihui beat Gao Lin and pushed the ball out of the penalty area.”
"Evergrande's intention is very obvious, which is to play high balls in front of the top of the penalty area and use Costa's height to bully Lu Yangyang into heading the ball." Liu Yue continued to analyze, "But now it seems that the Longteng team
We had already prepared for the second point of protection, and Lu Yangyang’s performance was a bit unexpected.”
What Liu Yue said was good, but he only got part of it right. Zhang Sheng's real purpose was further than what Liu Yue thought.
To be honest, during the team meeting before the game, Zhang Sheng acted very confidently and insisted on using Lu Yangyang, who had made a mistake in the previous game. He seemed to be reassured about the team's defense. In fact, Zhang Sheng was deeply worried about the Longteng team's defense.
It's extremely worrying.
With Guangzhou Evergrande’s current foreign aid configuration in the midfield and frontcourt, coupled with Scolari’s rich leadership experience and first-class tactical ability, it is simply a fantasy for the Longteng team to completely lock down Evergrande’s offense. Jun
In the real history of the Chinese Super League, in the 2017 and 2018 seasons, big scores were often scored. The main reason was because the defense of the Chinese Super League team was easily broken in front of opponents who generally upgraded their strikers.
For this reason, Zhang Sheng felt that he might as well go to Lu Yangyang. While ensuring the ability of his team's defense to play the ball, Lu Zhihui and Liming could simply concentrate on defense and clean up the front and rear for Lu Yangyang.
Moreover, Guangzhou Evergrande will definitely target the 18-year-old short central defender Lu Yangyang. He can firmly attract Evergrande's offensive center of gravity like a magnet attracting iron. The Longteng team can definitely target Guangzhou Evergrande's
The focus of attack can be used to arrange the defense, and furthermore, it can also show weakness, which is the "selling a flaw" often used in martial arts novels to counterattack.
Just as Zhang Sheng expected, Guangzhou Evergrande tasted some sweetness in this attack, and they became more determined to play Lu Yangyang's position.
After an attack by the Long Teng team, Guangzhou Evergrande once again passed the ball from the wing to the position defended by Lu Yangyang. This kind of forced pass in the middle of the midfield was not very effective. They bet
The only thing is that the forward Paulinho can completely beat Lu Yangyang in half of the confrontation.
The Longteng team, which had already made arrangements for Evergrande's style of play, had a plan. Zhang Sheng arranged for Lu Yangyang to rely on Qu Wenming to help defend Lu Yangyang on the left, and Tao Wentao to help defend Lu Yangyang on the right. This time, Qu Wenming
With the help of Paulinho, he and Lu Yangyang successfully defended Paulinho and intercepted the ball. Although Lu Yangyang almost flew out when Paulinho hit him, the defensive purpose was achieved.
"Paulinho's impact is really strong. He almost succeeded in one-on-two." Lou Yicheng only saw Paulinho's power and did not delve into what was behind it.
Paulinho's performance convinced Guangzhou Evergrande: As long as I work harder, pass the ball faster and more accurately, and fight harder, I can achieve a breakthrough against Lu Yangyang.
In the following games, Guangzhou Evergrande frequently attacked the Longteng team's midfield. Sometimes even when there was a better opportunity to attack, they would move the ball to Lu Yangyang's defensive position to seek confrontation. This gave
The Longteng team's defense was too prepared, and accordingly, they never had a good chance to score.
Although Lu Yangyang had already experienced the atmosphere of the AFC Champions League, Asia's top competition, in the last game, his opponent in this game was Guangzhou Evergrande. He faced the world's top foreign aid star, former Spanish national team forward Diego Costa, and now
Paulinho, the big leg of the Brazilian team.
From the moment he came on the field, Lu Yangyang was extremely nervous. In his first duel with Diego Costa, Lu Yangyang was worried after losing the confrontation. He didn't let go until he saw captain Lu Zhihui control the second point.
Heartbroken.
After that incident, Lu Yangyang began to work hard to cooperate with his teammates to resolve the opponent's targeted attacks. With repeated successful defenses, Lu Yangyang finally felt relieved.
"Although Lu Yangyang's defense requires help from his teammates, I have to say that he gradually gained a foothold on the court." In the past twenty minutes, Lu Yangyang's performance basically satisfied Lou Yicheng, "No matter how good he is,
If you train your body, get stronger, and grow taller, you will definitely be an excellent central defender."
Not long after Lou Yicheng finished praising Lu Yangyang, Lu Yangyang, who breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a little, made a mistake.
In the 30th minute of the first half, Lin Feng, who had been staying in the defensive midfielder position, suddenly ran forward. After receiving a pass from Li Xuepeng, he passed the ball to Paulinho without stopping.
The former also took advantage of the situation and gave the ball to Diego Costa. Lu Yangyang, who had been following Diego Costa, was obviously not ready. When the former received the ball, he leaned on Lu Yangyang and turned around directly. This reflects the behavior of Diego Costa.
Tower has extremely strong technical capabilities.
Lu Yangyang also didn't expect that a player as tall as Diego Costa, who is 1.88 meters tall, could stop the ball and turn around with such a flexible attitude at the same time.
"Costa, beautiful, passed Lu Yangyang and went directly into the penalty area." Lou Yicheng exclaimed, "Lu Zhihui came up, but Costa had a very large shooting space. The shot, Huang Dawei's save, was so crucial
, this save shows his ability."
"Guangzhou Evergrande won a corner kick." Liu Yue continued, "Costa's technical move just now was so beautiful that Lu Yangyang was completely crushed. This is the ability of top stars."
"If the game continues like this, the Longteng team's defense in the middle will be very dangerous." Lou Yicheng denied his previous affirmation of Lu Yangyang, "Let's take a look at Evergrande's corner kick first."
Lu Yangyang, who was passed by Diego Costa, was raising his hands to greet his teammates, saying that he was careless just now.
It must be said that Lu Yangyang is still too young and does not have much experience in how to maintain a high level of concentration on the court, how to use his body reasonably to interfere with the opponent, and how to judge the opponent's forward's next move in advance.
Diego Costa's cool move gave the other frontcourt players in Guangzhou Evergrande great confidence, and the idea that I can do it even if I am filling their minds.
In the 35th minute of the first half, the Longteng team attacked the frontcourt. Nie Jiang's through pass was intercepted by Feng Xiaoting, and then he accurately passed the ball to Lin Feng, who observed that Diego Costa was being defended.
He was very deadly and passed the ball to Yu Hanchao on the left. After receiving the ball, the latter immediately started speeding towards Lu Yangyang's position.
"Yu Hanchao took the ball and moved laterally. It seemed that he was preparing to cut inside." Liu Yue paid attention to the situation. "Lu Yangyang came over to fill the position. Yu Hanchao's speed increased. This is his characteristic. The Longteng team just now
We are still in an offensive state, and now several players are still in the frontcourt and have not returned. This is an opportunity for Guangzhou Evergrande."
