Vol 2 Chapter 148: Front waist

For the Lebanese team, in fact, the Chinese team does not know much, and the coaching staff only has the video of their recent games, but it does not matter. The only requirement of Gao Hongbo in this game is to control the ball at his feet and try to control it as much as possible. situation.

In the face of opponents of equal or greater strength, adequate video analysis is effective, but for opponents like Lebanon, the Chinese team is fully capable of suppressing from the first minute...it may not be possible before, but there are more of these Returnees, especially Zhou Tiancheng sitting in the midfield, at least in the midfield, is significantly better than Lebanon.

Then there is obviously a chance to completely control the initiative under your own feet. The opponent’s information is not too small and the impact will not be too great. The opponents are all players who play in the Gulf League and have no world-class defenders. Hold back. After the Chinese team arrived in Lebanon, the training was mainly aimed at the attack in the midfield. Gao Hongbo tried to give all players firm confidence: the opponents are not strong, continue to put pressure on them, we can always score!

The whole team has such confidence, of course, not to mention Zhou Tiancheng, but after the training class on the morning before the game ended, Gao Hongbo suddenly called him to the sidelines. Through these days of training, he had some ideas, Communicate with Zhou Tiancheng.

   "Xiao Zhou, you mainly play at the midfielder in the club, I was thinking, how about you try the midfielder position in the national team appropriately?"

  Zhou Tiancheng was stunned for a moment: "High guidance, what is proper trial?"

"It depends on the opponents. For example, opponents like Lebanon, we are mainly attacking. If you want to score as many goals as possible, then you will hit the front waist. If we meet Japan, South Korea, Australia, Iran, or stronger For European and American teams, when you need to defend against the counterattack, you will be partnered with Zheng Zhi. In short, what is the team’s biggest need, where do you play. You have to plug in after you want to participate in the offense in the club. If you are at the waist, you can attack with confidence."

   "High guidance, it seems that you have not watched my game less, ha!" Zhou Tiancheng made a joke, Gao Hongbo has no rack, as long as it does not affect the team, he is a very good person.

   "Knowing yourself and knowing each other, I don't even know my players how to do it. I also look at your performance and discover Jiang Hao by the way. Of course, if you feel difficult..."

   "I have no problem, high guidance, you just need to arrange the task, I obey the team's arrangement."

   Gao Hongbo smiled with satisfaction: "That's good, Jin Tong's opening is really different!"

   Perhaps it is indeed that the opponent is not under much pressure, Gao Hongbo still has a joke in mind. Zhou Tiancheng did not feel that it was too different within the team because he took a golden boy. The teammates have always been very enthusiastic. Although including the captain Zheng Zhi has expressed envy, in fact, Zhou Tiancheng feels that this is very good, he does not want to Because the honor is full, but the distance between these teammates is becoming more and more distant, a team like a family can play its maximum combat power-Zhou Tiancheng thinks so, although he is not sure whether there will be other emotions in everyone’s heart. Appeared, but did not affect the daily training, he would not think about it.

   However, on the day of the game, it happened that Beirut's rain suddenly increased. During the first two days of the team's training, it was only a drizzle of rain, but the day of the game began from noon.

  The weather made Gao Hongbo more worried. Not only was the pre-match step-up warm-up forced to be postponed, but also the Beirut Municipal Stadium had serious water accumulation on the playing field. There were many potholes in front of the two goals. In short, it looks similar to the vegetable field.

"Wow, this place, surely it's not funny? It feels like I suddenly returned to the field stadium of the elementary school." Jiang Hao saw the field in front of him and played a confrontation between the national teams on this field, which was completely inconsistent with him. Cognition.

   In fact, Jiang Hao's standards are too high. For Lebanon, it is already not easy to be able to play an international game in the country. The past two decades have been in a state of civil war turmoil. Naturally, the sports hardware facilities cannot keep up. Even the domestic Chinese stadiums are completely unmatched, not to mention the European five-star standard arrogant to Schalke Stadium. Zhou Tiancheng He Jianghao has not played in a stadium with serious water accumulation, but how could the stadium in front of him have an advanced and complete drainage system for Schalke?

Zhou Tiancheng also smiled bitterly, but he was more receptive than Jiang Hao: "It must be incomparable to Schalke's arrogance, this is the Middle East, the venue is rotten, it's rotten, anyway, there are also a group of rough brothers, we are technical People can still win them."

Before the game, Gao Hongbo gave everyone more tactical freedom in response to such weather conditions: "Although the venue is very bad, I hope everyone can try to keep the ball under their feet. Of course, if it is difficult to pass the ball in certain areas If you push forward, you can properly play a high ball. The central defender should pay attention to protecting his back. The direct impact of the opponent's big foot today must be the main game."

  'S starting center-back combination Feng Xiaoting and Dewey nodded at the same time.

   All Chinese media before the game paid close attention to the starting list. The official result announced by the AFC two hours before the match was that Jiang Hao and Chen Pengfei entered the starting lineup at the same time.

Gao Hongbo is not too aggressive today. The Chinese team still uses the traditional 4-2-3-1 formation. The starting goalkeeper is Yang Zhi of Beijing Guoan. When Gao Hongbo took over the national team, he used the former Zhu Guanghu for a while. Appreciating Song Zhenyu, but as Beijing Guoan won the just-concluded Super League 2009 season, its main goalkeeper Yang Zhi began to rely on the league's stable performance to enter Gao Hongbo's line of sight and guard the national team's goal. The next four defenders are Feng Xiaoting, Dewey, Rong Hao from Jiangsu Shuntian and Zhao Peng from Henan Jianye, and the double back is Zhao Xuri, a famous partner of the World Youth Championship in 2005, with Zheng Zhi on both sides. The avant-garde are Chen Pengfei and Hao Junmin. The national team's tactical system does not have a winger, but this game Chen Pengfei's role is similar to that of a pure winger. The overall pressure is high. The left-back Ronghao and his position are very close, which can contain the opponent's counterattack.

   In the midfield of the frontcourt, Zhou Tiancheng hit the front waist, and there is another consideration of Gao Hongbo: he is closer to Jiang Hao, hoping to use the tacit understanding of the two to improve the offensive efficiency.

  ……

The broadcast lens swept from Jiang Hao, who is wearing the Chinese team's No. 15 jersey, the CCTV program host, and also the national team's game commentary Liu Jianhong said: "This is Jiang Hao's personal national team debut, he is in Schalke 04 status Hot, came to the national team immediately trusted by Gao Hongbo, got the opportunity to start, even Gao Lin, who had played the main forward in the national team for four years, was squeezed off the bench when he first arrived. Perhaps this can really prove The benefits of studying abroad, if there is a chance, I hope that more local players can have more courage to go out and see. Otherwise, let’s look at the number of our neighbors, Japan, South Korea and foreign players..."

  Liu Jianhong began to show his unique style of commentary, and began to worry about the insufficient number of local overseas players.

His style is different from those of CCTV's two famous mouths, He Wei and Duan Xuan. He really "deeply loves" Chinese football. He often shows worries about the current state of the national team in the commentary, probably for this reason. Therefore, the national team often sees him sitting in the commentary every major game-in the past, the national team lost so much. When losing, Liu Jianhong's "worry commentary" is particularly in line with the public's mentality, Duan Xuan's The roaring passionate commentary and He Wei's beautiful poetic commentary are difficult to use in the Chinese team game.

   But it turns out that if CCTV arranged this paragraph to explain this, it would be more appropriate...

  Only seven minutes after the opening, the Chinese team scored!

Zheng Zhi made a long pass to find Jiang Hao in the penalty area. The Lebanese defender made a header but did not reach far. The ball just fell in front of Zhou Tiancheng. Zhou Tiancheng directly lifted his leg two steps in front of the arc of the big penalty area, facing the goal position and firing remotely. The Lebanese goalkeeper He stretched his arms and tried to touch the ball, but Jiang Hao had already opened his arms. A ball that hits the dead end extremely fast like this, and even Scheuer had to try his luck even if Neuer wanted to make it. Unless it is hit by Dayun hit the beam or column.

   But the opponent's goalkeeper obviously didn't have such good luck, the ball crossed his hand and flew to the top corner of the goal.

   It was raining heavily today. The number of fans on the scene was not large, and there were only a few hundred sparse Lala. The home team fans were not as good as the local overseas Chinese who came to cheer on the national team. But after the Chinese team scored, these fans burst into cheers and gongs in a flash, the momentum was not small.

"Good ball! Ball into the ball into the ball into the ball!!!" Liu Jianhong even said seven words "in", this is also his personal habit, but in the Chinese team game, it is inevitable that people feel emotion, once China How difficult it is for the team to score a goal!

   But now we only scored in seven minutes!

The commentator Xu Yang was also excited: "Golden Boy, this is the Golden Boy! Only seven minutes later, Zhou Tiancheng opened the door to victory for the Chinese team. Now it is meaningless for the opponent to continue to stay dead. The first two consecutive losses After losing Vietnam and Syria, we are on the verge of elimination. So sooner or later the opponents will be in a hurry to attack. The Chinese team needs to stabilize! We definitely have no shortage of opportunities in this game."

  Liu Jianhong nodded: "It is indeed the case that Gao Guidao moved Zhou Tiancheng from the waist to the front today, must have thought in advance that such a situation is most likely to happen."

Lebanese head coach Theo Booker's face was blue, and he roared to the side of the court to roar. The stupid defensive dislocation of the midfield completely disrupted his overall plan. His team cannot accept the loss, but he dares now Let the team press up to attack?

He is very clear that the Chinese team has more players playing in the Bundesliga. It is no longer the original team that won and lost five or five. In the rising period of the Chinese team's momentum, he suddenly overwhelmed. He was not absolutely sure. The attack cannot be counterattacked. For the back line, the consequences are disastrous.

   So he feels more pragmatic and starts with the defense, but the midfield defense strategy needs to change from regional defense to marking. He beckoned to his captain: be inseparable from Zhou Tiancheng!

   Soon, when Zhou Tiancheng was catching the ball, the captain of Lebanon, wearing a No. 8 jersey, pressed his back with a fierce force.

  Zhou Tiancheng has the same number in the Chinese team, so this is the two No. 8 matchup.

   Coincidentally, the No. 8 opposite is also an acquaintance of the Super League.

   "Shandong Luneng's foreign aid back Antal, he completely attached to Zhou Tiancheng, but the ball is still under Zhou Tiancheng's control, he tried to squeeze Zhou Tiancheng... Ha, this is not easy!"

But Antal is very confident. Before coming to the Super League, he also had a successful Bundesliga resume. In the 2006-07 season, he helped Cologne to kill back the Bundesliga. As a midfielder, he participated in a total of 82 Bundesliga leagues and scored 12 goals. He scored, and he was the first Asian player to perform a hat-trick in the Bundesliga. After his age gradually increased, his experience became more and more abundant, and his defensive ability began to strengthen, starting from an attacking midfielder to a versatile midfielder.

But soon the facts told him how big the gap was between the "former Bundesliga player" and the European Golden Boy. Zhou Tiancheng stepped the ball aside, Antal just protruded half a step, and Zhou Tiancheng quickly turned back in the opposite direction. Get rid of his entanglement.

   "Pretty! Cruyff turned! This is another chance, the opponent's midfield is empty!"

The classic turn created by Dutch superstar Cruyff is called “deceived the whole world” by the media. Although Zhou Tiancheng's action is not as fast as Cruyff's ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but it passed Anta It is very easy.

Immediately after that, Zhou Tiancheng did not greedy the goal, but directly aimed at Jiang Hao's position to give the ball behind him. Jiang Hao ran out of a single-handed opportunity, but the final shot was too angled, the goalkeeper had surrendered, but missed the bottom line .

   The Chinese team missed the opportunity to completely lock the victory in the first 20 minutes. Jiang Hao was even more annoyed. It was so little from the first goal of the national team!

   But he quickly returned to normal and gave Zhou Tiancheng a thumbs up.

  ……

The previous time was also the only time Antal really tangled with Zhou Tiancheng in the confrontation. He could clearly feel that the oppression of the opponent was intensifying. Now he is a midfielder and the team’s offensive brain, so he feels that he should keep Running, can't stop the brain to stop or paralyze it.

Zhou Tiancheng kept running laterally to catch the ball, and at the same time distributed the ball rights more evenly to the two sides. In this regard, Zhou Tiancheng still paid attention to balance. Under the same opportunity, basically it was a left and a right. All focused on Xiang Pengfei.

  This not only makes teammates feel comfortable on the field, but also distracts the center of attack, the possibility of attacking on the left and right is equal, the opponent can't grasp the focus at all, and the Chinese team's attack is completely revitalized.

   "It's really pleasing to the eye, Zhou Tiancheng is simply a first-rate midfield metronome. I haven't seen such a repressive Chinese team in West Asia away for a long time."

In fact, not only the organization of the attack, Zhou Tiancheng was consciously oppressing the defender the first time the attack was intercepted. Lebanon was completely unable to pass through the midfield through the transmission. The double backs Zheng Zhi and Zhao Xuri were somewhat ineffective-they were simply not able to play their role. !
