Chapter 1043 Opened up!

"The game lasted less than 10 minutes in the first half, and now the score is [-]-[-]!"

"Jingcheng Guoen is attacking very fiercely, and the players are very active, especially in the offensive end. The intensity is quite strong. The two full-backs are actively inserting and are very active."

"The two side lanes of Zhang Xizhe and Chen Zhizhao have also been activated, and now the Guoen team's offense can be said to be blooming everywhere."

"Yes, that's right!" Xu Yang took the words, "Different from Manzano's Jingcheng Guoen, Pochettino's tactics are mainly to hit the ribs, use Ibrahimovic to suppress the opponent's central defender, create loopholes in the defense, and actively use Zhang Xizhe, Chen Zhizhao and Wu Lei to attack from the back."

"This is very similar to Bielsa's tactics when he coached Southampton, making a fuss around Ibrahimovic."

"Hehe, maybe Pochettino has learned from Bielsa. He is now the technical director of Jingcheng Guoen."

"Haha, it's possible!" Xu Yang laughed.

"Generally speaking, Jingcheng Guoen is really playing very active now. Players often change positions. Zhang Xizhe, Chen Zhizhao and Wu Lei often switch back and forth. Coupled with their pressing and oppressive tactics, the opponent is very uncomfortable."

When He Wei heard this, he laughed again, "But sometimes they switch things up and down, and even they themselves are confused!"

"Haha, their cooperation is indeed a bit jerky, but overall, it's really pretty good."

He Wei nodded, "Yes, last season at the Water Drop Stadium, Jingcheng Guoen faced the relegated Jincheng Delta and lost [-] to [-]. Not only did they lose in terms of score, but even in terms of process and momentum, they were completely overwhelmed by Jincheng Delta."

"This game is now two to zero, and Jingcheng Guoen seems to have a clear advantage."

"Yes!" Xu Yang nodded again, "The main reason is that the role of several foreign aids is too obvious. Let's see, Ibrahimovic is in front, and Delta's two foreign aid central defenders can't restrain him. The Swedish center is one-on-two and can make moves with ease. The difference in strength is indeed too great."

"And Harvey Alonso, the world-class midfielder is nothing to say, the entire midfield is well organized, where the ball goes, which direction to attack, he has a very clear mind."

"As for Terry, even though he is not young, he can sit in the defense line, coupled with a young and strong Lei Tenglong, young and old, Montero has no chance at all."

He Wei was overjoyed when he heard this, "I feel that this Lei Tenglong is a gun in Terry's hand. He can shoot wherever he is told to shoot. It seems that he is really convinced by Terry."

"This is necessary. A world-class central defender's understanding of tactics and control of the game situation are indeed incomparable to Lei Tenglong. However, Lei Tenglong is still young and learned from Terry. This experience is too valuable. I believe it will be of great help to his growth and progress."

Xu Yang also kept nodding his head, "That's right, we often say that the old brings the new. This is not just empty talk, just like Thiago Silva, during his time at AC Milan, he learned from Nesta and quickly grew into a world-class central defender."

"There is also Terry, who was also frizzy back then, but partnered with Desailly, Gallas, Carvalho and other players, coupled with the training of famous coaches such as Ranieri and Mourinho, after tempering, he gradually became mature and stable. This is why Terry is now as stable as Mount Tai."

"Lei Tenglong's potential is indeed quite great. He was born as a striker and has good skills at his feet. He is also good at holding and delivering the ball. With a little cultivation, he will definitely become one of the best central defenders in China in the next few years."

He Wei nodded, "Especially during the period of studying abroad in Portugal, the progress has been quite obvious. Now there is a world-class central defender like John Terry teaching him hand in hand. In time, he should have the most potential, but he does have a lot of injuries."

"Yes, injuries are the natural enemy of professional players. However, it is reported that Beijing Guoen will fully introduce a complete medical system from Southampton. In terms of injury prevention, Southampton is second to none in the sports world."

While the two commentators were analyzing, they saw another change on the court.

At 10:[-] minutes into the first half, Jingcheng Guoen seized an opportunity and launched another fierce attack.

"It's Chen Zhizhao again, suddenly ran from the right to the center to catch the ball!"

"Pu Cheng's pass was too strong, and Chen Zhizhao didn't stop well at the first pass."

"Good guy, beautiful, bring it out!"

"Chen Zhizhao, get rid of it and pass it to Ibrahimovic."

"Ibrahimovic made a pass back, Chen Zhizhao took the ball from the front of the penalty area and made a pass!"

"Later, good chance!"

"The ball went in!!!!!!"

"Zhang Xizhe, Zhang Xizhe, No. 401 minutes, Zhang Xizhe scored his first goal of the season!"

"Three to zero, Jingcheng Guoen led by three goals in the first half!"

"Tsincheng Delta has been defeated like a mountain!"

"Jingcheng Guoen's performance in this game was quite outstanding, especially Chen Zhizhao from the right. He scored two goals in a row and both attacked from his side. Just now, the ball was not stopped. In the double-teaming of two players, he insisted on relying on his own foot skills to bring the ball out!"

"This performance is really eye-catching!"

"Chen Zhizhao, he contributed two assists in the first game, which is really outstanding."

"Since joining Beijing Guoen, his performance has always been questioned. Although many fans believe that he has enough strength and talent to become the most powerful star in the country, his performance on the court has not always been satisfactory."

"However, in this game, he seemed to be completely enlightened!"

Xu Yang also nodded again and again, and praised: "Chen Zhizhao's performance in this game is indeed very eye-catching. He is very active on the right and in the center, and his position is quite free. Pochettino made full use of him!"

"Isn't it?" He Wei also said, "I feel that Pochettino's adjustments to the offense are quite in place, but without sacrificing the team's defense, this is really not easy."

"The integration of offense and defense is also Bielsa's football philosophy. There is no clear offense and defense, and no clear position isolation. This is also the pursuit of mainstream European teams. Pochettino is promoting this set of tactics in the capital Guoen."

Xu Yang nodded at this point, "Now those doubts about whether Pochettino is not big enough and whether he can lead Jingcheng Guoen well should come to an end. Judging from the performance of the first half, whether it is the score or the process of the scene, it has proved Pochettino's ability. He played something that Jingcheng Guoen did not have before, and even domestic teams did not have."

He Wei also laughed, "He just took over the team not long ago. He said before that the team is still far from his requirements, but today's game is played like this. I am really looking forward to it. When he adjusts Jingcheng Guoen, what kind of team will it be like?"

"In my opinion, it's definitely no problem to compete with Yangcheng Hengda from the north to the south!" Xu Yang said confidently.

…………

…………

With Jingcheng Guoen scoring three consecutive goals in the first half and leading the away game [-]-[-], the trend of the whole game was completely tilted in the direction of Jingcheng Guoen.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Jincheng Delta wanted to counterattack, but Jingcheng Guoen was not to be outdone.

In 8 minutes, Zhang Xizhe suddenly changed positions with Chen Zhizhao. After forming a breakthrough on the right, a cross was passed into the penalty area. When Wu Lei received the ball, he was caught in the double-team of the opponent's central defender and barely kicked, but the ball bounced off the opponent's central defender.

Ibrahimovic followed up from behind, and before the ball landed, he volleyed directly, and the ball hit the net.

Four to zero!
The whole drop stadium is crazy!
No one expected that Jingcheng Guoen would play such a crazy state in the first round of the league!
The strength of this team is too strong, especially their crazy high-position pressing and oppression, which made Jincheng Delta completely unable to adapt, and was firmly suppressed by Jingcheng Guoen throughout the game.

Even in the No. 603 minute, Harvey Alonso relied on a corner kick to assist Ibrahimovic to make another victory. The Swedish center scored a hat-trick and expanded the score to [-]-[-].

This simply made all the Beijing fans who followed the team to the away game happy and crazy.

You know, Beijing and Tianjin have always been sworn enemies, and the water drop stadium in Jincheng has always been the most difficult away game for the Beijing Guoen team. Last season, they lost a [-]-[-] here, which became a shame in the eyes of all Beijing Guoen fans.

But now, Jingcheng Guoen beat Jincheng Delta [-]-[-] in an away game. This is simply going against the sky!

If it wasn't for the last half hour of the second half, Delta took the opportunity to play a few threatening counterattacks due to the excessive physical exertion of the players and weakened control. The latter didn't even have a decent chance in the whole game.

Is this still Jingcheng Guoen?

Although the former Beijing Guoen had excellent defense, its offensive performance was still not satisfactory.

But in this match, the strength shown by Jingcheng Guoen was to use a fierce attack to beat the opponent.

But on the basis of the tide of offense, the defense of the Guoen team has not fallen at all, which is simply unbelievable.

The fans of Jincheng Delta are full of disappointment.

Although they have long expected that with the increased investment of the Chinese Super League team this season, Jincheng Delta's situation may not be very good, but they never imagined that it would be so bad.

In the first round of the league, he was beaten [-]-[-] by his rival team?

How can such a league be played?
At this moment, they didn't even have the thought of booing the state of the capital.

Even, in the eyes of many Jincheng Delta fans, they should instead cheer for the wonderful performance of the Beijing Guoen team.

At least, the performance of this team is indeed much higher than that of the home team.

With the whistle of the referee, the most watched match in the first round of the new season of the Chinese Super League ended with Beijing Guoen defeating Jincheng Delta [-]-[-] away.

All the Jingcheng Guoen fans who followed the team to the away game stood up from their seats at the moment the game whistle sounded, and all of them sang the team song of Jingcheng Guoen, cheering for the team's wonderful performance.

Yang Huan, who was sitting in the chairman's stand, also stood up like all the Beijing Guoen fans and applauded the players.

He himself also did not expect that the team would perform so well in the away game.

But he knew in his heart that this was caused by many factors.

There are not only big-name foreign players such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Harvey Alonso, and Terry, but also outstanding domestic players such as Wu Lei and Jiang Zhipeng, which have jointly improved the overall strength of Jingcheng Guoen, and because of Pochettino's advanced set of tactics, it has completely suppressed Jincheng Delta.

But more importantly, it was because Jincheng Delta's tactics were completely unsuitable, and they were disrupted from the very beginning.

Therefore, a game is only temporary and cannot explain any problems. It can only be said that it is a good start.

If Jingcheng Guoen wants to make a difference this season, he needs to continue to maintain this vigor and momentum!
