The Huaguo team had five players in the midfield, and Zhao Yang, who had excellent personal ability, quickly took advantage of the field.
But without Zhao Yang's restraint, Zhang Ning on the striker was left alone and unable to complete the final goal scoring mission.
The Trinidad and Tobago team gradually recovered its form. After being unable to compete with the Chinese team in the midfield, they decisively gave up the fight for the midfield and went directly to the frontcourt, using the players' personal abilities to attack the Chinese team.
The defense line of the national team.
It has to be said that the tactics of the Trinidad and Tobago team were very targeted. The Chinese team's defender was very embarrassed and the Chinese team's midfielder had to retreat to assist in the defense.
If Zhao Yang retreats, he can still attack forward. If the midfielder retreats, he is too far away from the opponent's goal. Even if he gets the ball, it will be difficult to invest more troops in the counterattack.
Perrin's face on the sidelines became more and more serious.
Facing a strong team, even a team with incomplete personnel and traveling thousands of miles, the shortcomings of the Chinese team's overall weak strength are still fully exposed.
The Huaguo team only has one Zhao Yang, but all three lines need a team like Zhao Yang to lead the team. This is the dilemma of the Huaguo team.
Although Zheng Zhi and Hao Jun are still sitting on the bench, Zheng Zhi is already 26, and Hao Jun is relatively weak, so the two of them cannot play a decisive role.
In the 28th minute of the game, Trinidad and Tobago made a long pass from the backcourt. While fighting for a header, forward Joseph caused a foul by Chinese team defender Feng Xiaoting. Trinidad and Tobago gained a good position.
free kick.
Silva, who took the free kick, did not shoot directly, but passed it into the penalty area to find Joseph.
Joseph was closely guarded by the Chinese team. He had no chance to shoot, so he could only rub the ball with his header and hit the back point.
Trinidad and Tobago midfielder Hector's header at the far post bounced into the goal.
1:2
Trinidad and Tobago, playing away from home, got a goal back.
The Trinidad and Tobago team's world ranking is more than thirty places higher than the Chinese team. It is normal for them to score goals, and even defeating the Chinese team is expected.
However, with the advantage in the midfield, Perrin was very unconvinced by his opponent's simple long pass and the goal was scored.
Commentator Huang Lu couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Twenty years ago, the Chinese national team was most afraid of opponents pressing. Twenty years later, it still can't solve this problem. In the final analysis, the technology is still not good, and the psychological quality is still poor.
.”
After a short celebration, the game started again.
After the Trinidad and Tobago team scored a goal, the morale of the players was so high that they even launched a full-court press against the Chinese team. After stealing the ball, they launched a counterattack on the spot.
The Chinese team was forced to shrink their formation and use their numerical advantage to compress the opponent's offensive space.
Although Trinidad and Tobago is a Central and North American team, it mainly has strong impact, its skills are not that delicate, there are too many new players, and the cooperation is not tacit enough.
When there is a lot of space for counterattack, Trinidad and Tobago's offensive threat is great.
When there was no space and there was a positional battle, the Trinidad and Tobago team made a lot of mistakes, giving the Chinese team many opportunities to counterattack.
In the 38th minute of the game, the Trinidad and Tobago team made a mistake in passing the ball in the frontcourt, and the ball was suddenly intercepted by Zhang Peng.
Zhang Peng immediately divided the sides and found Yu Chao on the wing.
Yu Chao is also a fast and skilled player.
After receiving the ball, Yu Chao quickly walked forward along the side road, trying to break through the densely populated area in the middle.
The Trinidad and Tobago team also knows very well that once Yu Chao is rushed out of the midfield, the defense will be in danger, and the central and wide players will immediately come to surround Yu Chao.
Yu Chao was very smart and saw his opponent coming to intercept. He didn't stick to the ball and passed it to Zhao Yang.
Even if Zhao Yang didn't score, he was still the tightest defensive player in Trinidad and Tobago.
During the Chinese team's counterattack, there was also a player following Zhao Yang who was running without the ball.
When the super ball came, the players from Trinidad and Tobago immediately ran towards Zhao Yang. When Zhao Yang got the ball, he immediately made a sliding tackle.
This means he is prepared to leave both the man and the ball here without committing a foul.
However, Zhao Yang had already predicted his opponent's movements. When he touched the ball, he pushed the ball far away, then jumped up to avoid the opponent's tackle.
Seeing this beautiful escape, the Chinese fans in the stands cheered.
Shaking away the defender, Zhao Yang quickly dribbled the ball forward and rushed straight into the opponent's back line.
At this moment, Trinidad and Tobago's defense is basically complete, with only one full-back yet to return.
It's just that the Trinidad and Tobago team was in an offensive state and was beaten back by the Chinese team. The back line was far away from the goal. Once Zhao Yang broke through, it would be a smooth road.
However, if a person dribbles the ball straight towards the opponent's defense, no matter whether he can break through or not, his courage and confidence are not comparable to that of ordinary people.
The shadow of the famous tree.
Zhao Yang's fame in La Liga has spread all over the world.
Even in Central and North America, there are very few players and fans who don't know about Zhao Yang.
Out of fear of Zhao Yang, the two defenders rushed towards Zhao Yang, trying to steal the ball in one fell swoop.
This also shows that the players of Trinidad and Tobago are afraid of Zhao Yang.
At this moment, Zhang Ning was already running to one side, trying to attract a defensive player to Zhao Yang, but the Trinidad and Tobago defender ignored him.
Obviously, the players of Trinidad and Tobago underestimated Zhao Yang's personal ability, or in other words, the players of Trinidad and Tobago believed too much in their defensive ability.
Facing the two defenders who rushed towards them, Zhao Yang did not slow down and looked like he was going to run over them head-on.
However, when he was about to hit the defender who was slightly ahead, Zhao Yang moved and stood up, and a "fried meatball" dangled past the defender in front.
The defender in front didn't even react. Zhao Yang passed by and he was still standing there like a wooden stake.
The second defender didn't expect Zhao Yang to break through so quickly. He was frightened. When he saw Zhao Yang coming, he subconsciously moved to steal the ball.
Zhao Yang almost didn't pause at all, and he struck again and again with another "fried meatball", knocking the second defender to the ground.
"Fried meatballs"! Two "fried meatballs"!
"Zhao Yang is so awesome!"
"Exceptionally beautiful!"
"Zhao Yang is showing off his power! Come in!"
After passing two defenders, there was a smooth road in front of him. Zhao Yang almost seemed to have not slowed down and moved the ball forward, heading straight for the goalkeeper.
Trinidad and Tobago goalkeeper Samuel was scared. He did not dare to pounce on the ball at Zhao Yang's feet for fear of being passed by Zhao Yang.
Samuel quickly retreated, wanting to retreat to the small penalty area, not giving Zhao Yang space to dribble the ball, and allowing Zhao Yang to shoot directly.
Zhao Yang didn't want to bother. The opponent's defender and other players were chasing after him desperately. How could Zhao Yang choose to pass the goalkeeper? When he saw Samuel retreating, he immediately rubbed the ball and lobbed it.
Samuel wanted to jump to intercept, but he stepped back too fast. It was not that easy to jump again. He almost fell down but did not touch the ball. The ball flew over his head and accurately fell into the net.
