Kawasaki Frontale's change of tactics did cause some trouble for the Longteng team. In the first ten minutes of the second half, the Longteng team's defense seemed a little flustered.
In the fifth minute of the second half, Nakamura Kengo made a false shot in the middle. When the ball came, he touched the ball and passed the ball without any pause, which surprised the Dragons defensive players who were waiting for him. Kobayashi Yu
He made a smart move and got a chance to shoot in the penalty area. This was because the shot was too straight and was caught by Huang Dawei.
In the 12th minute, Nakamura Kengo actually penetrated into the penalty area. Fortunately, Qi Ming was close and the former's header missed the baseline.
Faced with such a situation, Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff around him quickly discussed a countermeasure. Qi Ming acted as a defensive midfielder and defended to the end, using his physical advantages to crush the 37-year-old veteran. Nakamura Kengo's age
It is impossible to support his high-speed sprinting back and forth, and he is not the kind of person who can grab points in the penalty area. The main defensive target should be Yu Kobayashi.
As for Oshima Gouta, who is responsible for organizing the offense, the problem can be solved by the frequent forward penetration of Neto, the forward retreat and Tao Wentao.
After the Longteng team made targeted strategies to solve the Kawasaki Frontale's offense, their offensive power showed off.
The Longteng team's two wings, Luther Paul and Fernando, plus Huang He, who has a strong assist ability, put extremely heavy pressure on Kawasaki Frontale's wings, especially Shintaro Kuraya, who was carrying a yellow card. Fernando and Huang He
Under the joint attack of cranes, dangers abound.
In the 19th minute of the second half, Tao Wentao intercepted Neto's dribbling. Although the latter's counterattack on the spot made Tao Wentao's hastily split pass a bit too big, Fernando bullied Shintaro Kamiya because he was not as fast as him.
Quick, I have cards on my body, I don’t dare to fight for half a goal.
Sure enough, when Fernando touched the ball so quickly, he acted like if you dare to touch me, I will roll around for a dozen times and let you get the second card.
The ball was kicked away by Fernando first, and then he passed the pass to Chavez in the center without any defense on the wing. The latter beat Kawasaki Frontale's center back Tatsuki Nara with a header and scored a goal.
Chavez, who is 1.85 meters tall, is a head taller than Tatsuki Nara, who is just 1.8 meters tall. He is also on the same two levels in terms of jumping and weight. The latter is like a chicken pinned down by an eagle, with no wings.
Stretch out, and the consequences are predictable.
"Chavez's header, wow, the ball went in!" Seeing this powerful header, Li Xin also shouted at the top of her voice, "It's so beautiful, it's a standard center forward style header.
The ball was scored, and the height and confrontational weaknesses of the Japanese team at the center back were too obvious."
"Even in the Chinese Super League, Chavez's confrontation and header ability in the penalty area are first-rate." Dong Lu added, "The lack of strong central defenders has always been a shortcoming of the Japanese team, and the only exception is Yoshida Ma.
Playing football in Europe, it is too difficult for Chavez to rush like this."
The score of 2:0 made Onimuda extremely dissatisfied with Kamiya Shintaro. It can be said that his position completely defeated Fernando.
"Kawasaki is going to make a substitution. Off is Shintaro Kamiya, on is No. 2 Tobisato Yuhei, a left back substitution."
Dong Lu tacitly began to introduce Li Xin's substitution information: "Indeed. Shintaro Kamiya's performance was really poor today. The two goals conceded by Kawasaki were directly related to him. The 26-year-old Yuhei Norigato who is now replaced
, is a fast horse on the wing. But do you know Li Xin? He is a Chinese player."
"Oh?" Li Xin accepted the responsibility successfully, "This is relatively rare. Japanese Chinese players."
"Yes. His father is Japanese, and his mother is an immigrant from China. He has always been known for his speed on the wing. It seems that he is going to have a conflict with Fernando." Dong Lu unpacked the baggage.
Guimuda's idea is good, but sometimes there is a gap in strength and there is nothing he can do about it. Tori's equalizing speed is certainly good, but the repeated attacks from Fernando and Huang He on the Dragon Team made him fall behind quickly.
The footsteps of Shintaro.
In the 25th minute of the second half, when faced with Fernando's dribbling, Nori Kyohei had no problem with his flexibility and speed. The problem was that his height of 1.68 meters was too disadvantageous against Fernando, who was 1.75 meters tall.
This time, instead of relying on speed, he relied on his body to squeeze the former away. Tobiri Kyouhei, who was pushed aside, turned around and pulled Fernando to the ground.
Fortunately, the referee was merciful and only gave a verbal warning.
"Fernando's personal ability is too strong." Li Xin praised.
"This is a move that the Dragon Teng team has tried all over the world. It caught Kawasaki's desperate attack from the left, and the latter's kick was a bit too embarrassing." Dong Lu began to predict. "I feel like something will happen here."
Sure enough, just three minutes later, Fernando once again deliberately sought confrontation. After the latter was suppressed and got rid of it, he turned around and made a tackle from behind. At this time, all the Longteng players stopped.
Fernando fell on the grass holding his calf, feeling very painful. As the captain, Lu Zhihui quickly came over to negotiate.
The referee who came first waved the team doctor to the sidelines and then turned around and gave Nobi Nori a red card. This was obviously a response to him not listening to his warning a few minutes ago.
"This move is very bad." Li Xin said, "Fernando was helped down. The Longteng team is about to make a substitution. It seems that they cannot continue to play."
Fernando's injury disturbed many of Zhang Sheng's arrangements. The team's advantage on the right cannot be discarded. In the end, Zhang Sheng made a bold substitution. De Paul moved from the left to the right, and Ni Kai came on.
Go to the left to counterattack.
Kawasaki Frontale chose to defend. Veteran captain Norigo Nakamura came off the field, and Japanese New Zealand center back James Maiyoryu came on. He is also 1.85 meters tall and obviously came to defend Chavez.
Nakamura Kengo's dismissal freed Qi Ming greatly. He could devote most of his energy to offense. The Longteng midfielder became much more aggressive, including in set pieces.
I dare to participate in the attack with confidence.
In the 36th minute of the second half, the Longteng team got a corner kick. It was Qi Ming's back-up from the front point that gave Nie Jiang a chance to shoot from the back point. Nie Jiang's snake-like movement obviously also made Kawasaki's side
Unexpectedly, by the time his shot at the back post was completed, all reactions were already too late.
"Nie Jiang's follow-up shot made it 3:0." Li Xin said with a smile on his face, "This game is difficult for Kawasaki Frontale. There are indeed problems with their midfield interception and set-piece defense."
"It still has something to do with the defense on the left. Shogo Taniguchi moved from the left center back to the left back position. The defensive mentality is still based on stability. If he can give a sideline ball, he chose to kick it directly out of the baseline and get a safe ball.
It gave the Longteng team a corner kick." Dong Lu sorted out the ins and outs of this goal and made another prediction, "If Kawasaki doesn't make some changes, there are still more than ten minutes to defeat the game."
After kicking off again, Kawasaki Frontale was also scared. Midfielder Oshima Ryota was basically stationed on the left, determined not to let the Longteng team start the offense here.
However, sometimes, when the momentum builds up, the game can be played no matter how hard it is.
In the 41st minute of the second half, Nie Jiang scored again. This time the Longteng team took the ball from the right and sent it to the left. Ni Kai, who was unguarded, jumped in at high speed and sent a through ball into the penalty area.
, Nie Jiang easily made a diagonal run forward and succeeded in pushing the shot into the near corner, extending the score to 4:0, and also completed his hat trick in this game.
"In a two-round match, the Longteng team planned to end the battle in one round." Li Xin said with emotion, "The Longteng team seized on a weakness on the Kawasaki Frontale, and followed this weakness to poke a big hole in the opponent.
The hole behind Kawasaki cannot be blocked no matter how hard it is blocked."
As Zhang Sheng replaced Nie Jiang with Tang Jin and asked him to accept the standing applause of the home fans, the game basically entered garbage time. The deployment of troops by both sides was more about completing the substitution tasks step by step.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the bright red 4:0 on the scoreboard on the stadium screen informed everyone that this was a big victory.
Another piece of good news came after the game, which made Zhang Sheng relieved a lot - after Fernando's examination, it was found that it was an ordinary knee sprain and he could recover with a week's rest.
In such a dense schedule, Fernando, who is gradually improving, is still very important to the team.
Of course, it was Nie Jiang who received the most praise after the game. His three goals in this game made him the first Chinese Super League player to complete a hat trick in the knockout stages of the AFC Champions League. This record is even higher among all the top foreign players in the Chinese Super League.
What has been completed before can be said to be full of gold content.
Nie Jiang's hot state has also made everyone look forward to the World Cup preliminaries in the near future.
This also gave everyone some excuses for the National Youth Team in the World Youth Championship the day before. In the first round of the U20 match against New Zealand, the Chinese National Youth U20 team was obviously unable to score goals, with 72% to 28% possession of the ball.
Comparing the shooting rates, none of the nineteen shots were scored. Many fans watching the game wanted to go up and shoot two of them themselves.
In the final game, the Chinese National Youth U20 were tied with the New Zealand National Youth U200:0.
The fans’ messages after the game were all: “If Nie Jiang was on the court...”
It's a pity that no matter how shameless the Chinese Football Association is, they can't ask the Longteng team to give up the AFC Champions League and let Nie Jiang play in the World Youth Championship.
In fact, from Zhang Sheng's perspective, the players from the 1997 class participating in the World Youth Championship are worth looking forward to, because they have a large overall base and have many training opportunities.
Compared with the "senior brothers and junior brothers", they are considered the most valued generation among the recent generations of Chinese football players.
In real history, the 95-year-old and the 98-year-old are considered the lowest point of China’s national youth teams. Because these two teams happened to have experienced the alternation of old and new policies (the work alternation after the Chinese Football Association resumed its youth division), they were in a transitional period.
team.
Like the 98-year-old group of players, because the Chinese Football Association strictly checks bone age, and the standards are higher than those of the AFC and FIFA, a large number of players of the right age were mistakenly killed. Therefore, the available players for this age group are very limited.
.
As for the 95-year-old group, they are considered to be the last group of players before strict bone age checks. In addition, they are in the non-Olympic age group, so the number is limited.
In comparison, because the 97-year-old age group belongs to the age-appropriate category for the 2017 National Games and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, both the local government and the Football Association pay special attention to it.
According to the information Zhang Sheng learned, the number of professional players in this age group registered with the Chinese Football Association exceeds 3,000. Compared with media reports that there are less than a hundred players in the 98-year-old age group nationwide, which can be said to be a world of difference.
In fact, there are more people in the 97 age group playing overseas than there are people in the 98 age group. Of course, this is due to the "Study in Portugal" project of the former director of the Football Management Center, Wei Di, and the "Song Qing Ling Foundation"
"Star Fund" project, as well as the admiration of "study abroad" by sports administrative departments in various places.
Now thanks to the emergence of the Dragons, a large number of players who were buried in the 1998 age group have come to light again, plus other participating players in the 97 age group: the already famous Lin Liangming, Zhang Yuning, Yang Liyu, who has had many opportunities to play in the Chinese Super League,
Hu Jinghang, Huang Zhengyu, Zhang Lingfeng, Guo Quanbo, Huang Zichang, who are extremely optimistic by insiders, and even Guo Tianyu, Shan Huanhuan, Liu Ruofan who "leapgrade" in 1999, Zhu Chenjie, Jiang Shenglong, etc. who "jumped" in 2000.
The non-Longteng national youth players participating in the World Youth Championship this time still have a certain level of strength. The only thing that makes coach Madaloni unhappy is that a large number of players who play in the Chinese Super League cannot be recruited as easily as players who are still in the echelon. U23 policy
Hanging in the air, no team is willing to arrange a U23 team to train for a long time and play a friendly match.
So after the game against New Zealand ended 0:0, Madaloni complained: "The time we spent together to play football was too short, and our cooperation is relatively unfamiliar."
A bunch of fans are discussing the National Youth Team's wasteful shooting and not cherishing the opportunity. What they don't know is that in the original history, there will be two extremely important rules that will be released by the Chinese Football Association in the next two days. In the Chinese Super League
It caused a huge sensation among the fans.
One of them is the u23 rule: starting from the 2018 season, when Chinese Super League and Chinese League One clubs participate in the Chinese Super League, Chinese League One, and Chinese Football Association Cup, each club will accumulate the number of U23 domestic (excluding Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan) players who played in the entire game.
, must be the same as the cumulative number of foreign players playing in the entire game.
Historically known as the 5.24u23 Regulation.
Looking back, I think about the moment when the Chinese Football Association issued this rule: the first and second rounds of the World Youth Championship in South Korea had just ended. It can be said that the good performance of the Asian teams in the World Youth Championship stimulated the upper class people who have been paying attention to football.
In that timeline, the Chinese National Youth Team failed to qualify for the World Youth Championship. It was eliminated early in the Asian qualifying stage and did not even enter the knockout stage.
Let's look at Japan, Iran, Saudi Arabia and other teams who all won their own victories. In particular, South Korea's U20 defeated a top team like Argentina's U20 for the first time, making the contrast particularly large.
However, due to the emergence of the Longteng Team, the National Youth Team has successfully entered the World Youth Championship, and its performance in youth competitions has been good. This rule has evolved into a policy that at the beginning of this season, at least one U23 player must be maintained on the field. It is not overkill.
