Chapter 275 Skills are not as good as people [Thanks to the leader Feng Yimiiao for the reward, please subscribe for a monthly pass]

On the evening of March 25th, Tianjin.

After a few days of training, the Chinese national team ushered in the second group match of the quarterfinals.

Sitting at home against another strong team in this group, Japan.

Since the previous away game narrowly beat Iran [-]-[-], and Japan beat North Korea [-]-[-] at home, this makes it clear that if the Chinese team can win Japan at home in this game, it will undoubtedly have an advantage in the group.

Because of this, regardless of China or Japan, this game is very cautious.

Especially considering that in the previous Asian Cup final, Japan was beaten [-]-[-] by China.

After the running-in of the Asian Cup, Alihan played a four-three-three formation, and played a young version of the trident of Yan Song, Yang Yang and Chen Tao in the frontcourt. This is also a very bold attempt.

Yang Yangcai, Chen Tao have just turned 24, and Yan Song is only [-] years old. The front trident can be regarded as the youngest offensive combination in China's history. Many old international players, including Li Jinyu, Li Yi and Hao Dong, were either not selected for the training list or sat on the bench.

In this regard, Alihan said that he is vigorously promoting the renewal of the Chinese national team, because it is necessary to consider that the World Cup will be next year, and many international players are obviously no longer suitable to stay in the team.

If it is surprising to say that the bold use of new players in the frontcourt is surprising, then the defense line remains basically unchanged.

Sun Xiang is on the left, Zheng Zhi and Li Weifeng are in the middle, Wei Xin is on the right, and Liu Yunfei is the goalkeeper.

Arihan obviously thinks that the defense line of the Chinese team makes him very satisfied, and he does not plan to adjust it.

As for the midfield, the Iranian team used three midfielders in the last round. Although it was conservative, it did play a role. But this time Alihan gave up the three midfielders and adopted a combination of Shao Jiayi, Zhao Junzhe and Zhou Haibin.

Among them, Shao Jiayi is in the front position, and Zhao Junzhe and Zhou Haibin form a double midfielder.

Judging from the formation of troops, Ali Han has been trying to attack the Chinese team's midfield after stabilizing the defense.

In terms of tactics, Alihan is indeed cautious, but it does not mean that he is conservative every game.

…………

…………

From the beginning of the game, both sides actively tested.

In the first 10 minutes, both teams were in the running-in trial stage.

The first threatening attack of the game was in the No.12 minute. The Japanese team Hidetoshi Nakata gave a pass-like shot on the right side of the front of the penalty area, but the goalkeeper Liu Yunfei made a decisive attack to save the ball.

Just 1 minute later, Shunsuke Nakamura, who played for Reggina in Serie A, forced a breakthrough with the ball and was tackled by Zhou Haibin. The referee immediately gave Zhou Haibin a yellow card, which was also the first yellow card of the game.

After a wave of offensives by the Japanese team, the Chinese team quickly created a chance to counterattack.

Yang Yang counterattacked quickly, inserted to the left side of the Japanese team and received a pass from his teammate, and then crossed to the front of the penalty area. Shao Jia followed up and volleyed vigorously, but unfortunately, it directly turned into an anti-aircraft gun.

This is also the first shot of the Chinese team in this game.

Subsequently, after the Chinese team stabilized their position, they frequently created opportunities.

Zhou Haibin made a diagonal pass, and Yang Yang quickly pulled the ball to the right to get the ball. Facing the two defensive players of the Japanese team, Yang Yang suddenly started, dribbled the ball through the two, cut inside to the front of the penalty area, and volleyed vigorously with his left foot.

This shot is very similar to the world wave against Alkmaar before, but the distance is much closer, the quality is also good, the ball is suppressed, but it is still slightly higher than the crossbar.

Although this shot failed to create a goal, it still made the Japanese team break out in a cold sweat.

Everyone is also clearly aware that Yang Yang's personal ability still has an advantage when facing Japanese players.

He is a star who can play the leading role in Ajax alone, and a rookie who attracts most of the European giants.

After tasting the sweetness, Yang Yang also began to be more active and take the ball more actively.

Three minutes later, Yang Yang took the initiative to withdraw from the frontcourt and raised his hand to ask for the ball.

The position where he took the ball happened to be in the gap between the Japanese team's midfield and the defense line. This position made the Japanese players very uncomfortable. Yang Yang caught the ball and turned around in one go, and then quickly dribbled forward with the ball.

After getting up to speed, the Japanese team couldn't stop it even if they wanted to, so they had to foul abruptly.

For this reason, the referee gave the Japanese team defender Tsuneyasu Miyamoto a yellow card, and at the same time gave the Chinese team a chance to set the ball in the frontcourt.

…………

…………

Yang Yang grabbed Shao Jiayi's hand and got up from the grass.

Tsuneyasu Miyamoto is still very capable. This time the foul was very decisive and straightforward. The position was a bit far and to the left. Direct free kicks are impossible. At most, he can only use a set kick to cooperate.

"How do you fight this time?" Shao Jia asked with embarrassment.

The ball in this position is really not very easy to handle.

"Let's cooperate. I'll ambush outside the restricted area." Yang Yang suggested.

Shao Jia thought about it for a while, and immediately nodded in agreement.

After Yang Yang stood up, he didn't rush to the penalty area immediately, but stood not far from the penalty spot.

This made the Japanese defensive players a little worried, fearing that this would be a quick free kick, and immediately separated two defensive players, one left and one right followed Yang Yang.

One-on-one defense, they are still not at ease.

Yang Yang didn't care either, and walked slowly.

Li Weifeng, Zheng Zhi and others all entered the restricted area one after another, obviously they all knew the plan long ago.

Following the referee's whistle, Shao Jiayi quickly took a free kick.

Everyone on the field ran immediately.

Yang Yang first made a gesture to come over to meet Shao Jiayi, scaring the Japanese defenders to run after him, but suddenly he stopped suddenly and turned to rush towards the front of the penalty area.

The ball crossed an arc and fell towards the Japanese team's penalty area.

Li Weifeng grabbed the position in the penalty area, and Miyamoto Tsuneyasu blocked him and the goal, but the big head didn't intend to head the goal, but headed the ball back to the front of the penalty area.

At this time, Yang Yang rushed over quickly, facing the incoming ball, before the Japanese defenders, Yang Yang stopped the ball with his right foot to the right, just avoided the defense of the Japanese players, and then chased after him. After standing still with his left foot, he swung his right foot and hit it directly!

"Yang Yang!!!!"

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

"No. 203 minutes, Yang Yang scored the first goal of the Chinese team in this game!"

"This is a set-piece cooperation between players. Shao Jiayi made a set-kick and Li Weifeng flew the header back to the front of the penalty area. After Yang Yang stopped the ball and passed the Japanese defender, he directly hit the goal with his right foot."

"The shot in the top area of ​​the arc was very exciting, and the football went directly to the goal of the Japanese team, one to zero!"

After scoring the goal, Yang Yang rushed out of the stadium excitedly, waving his arms along the way, indicating that the fans at the scene should be more excited and give the home team more applause and cheers.

All the Chinese fans at the scene burst into thunderous applause, and everyone shouted Yang Yang in unison.

"After the start of the first half, the Japanese team did create more opportunities, but the Chinese team calmly seized the best opportunity. Yang Yang, relying on his personal ability, created a set kick in the frontcourt and scored a goal by himself."

"This is his second shot of the game, and he scored a goal unexpectedly. His recent state is really good and outstanding!"

…………

…………

The game restarts.

The Japanese team fell behind by one goal and began to organize and launch attacks non-stop.

Hidetoshi Nakata, Shinji Ono, Shunsuke Nakamura and other Japanese international players frequently created threats.

Among them, Shinji Ono shot a long shot from 303 meters away in No. 30 minutes, almost hitting the post and going out of bounds, which made everyone break out in a cold sweat.

In the No. 309 minute, the Japanese team had a corner kick. Hidetoshi Nakata hit the side net with a header and almost scored.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, the Japanese team continued to maintain its advantage on the field and continued to attack the Chinese team.

In the first ten minutes or so, the Chinese team even had no chance to break into Japan's 30-meter zone, which shows how embarrassing the scene was.

But in the No.601 minute, the Chinese team quickly counterattacked.

After receiving the pass from Zhou Haibin in the frontcourt, Yang Yang used his body to block the Japanese central defender, and then picked a pass behind him on the left side. Yan Song quickly slanted in and shot a cold shot directly after receiving the ball, but it missed the goal slightly.

But just when everyone thought that the Chinese team would hold back the Japanese team’s attack, in the 606th minute, Nakata Hidetoshi made a pass from the left. Goalkeeper Liu Yunfei abandoned the goal and fought with Li Weifeng. In the end, neither of them got the ball.

One to one!

This goal greatly affected the morale of the Chinese team.

It can also be said to confirm Alihan’s anxiety before the game, that is, the lack of player strength and skills and tactics leads to the team’s extremely low error tolerance rate in the game. Once a mistake occurs, it is likely to be caught by the opponent.

It can be said that the conceded goal just now has nothing to do with the coach's formation. It is entirely the result of the players being too nervous on the field. Both of them are eager to clear the siege.

For this situation of the team, no one can do anything.

To put it bluntly, his skills are inferior to others.

After the tragic goal, Yang Yang also kept comforting his teammates, calling on everyone to make persistent efforts.

…………

…………

After the re-kick-off, Yang Yang was more active.

The Chinese team quickly got a free kick in the frontcourt, and quickly passed it to the penalty area through tactical cooperation.

Yang Yang got a chance at the back point, but his kick went slightly wide.

Later, when Shao Jiayi attacked with the ball in the middle, he was pushed down by Shinji Ono of the Japanese team. The referee gave the Japanese midfielder a yellow card.

The free kick taken by Shao Jiayi failed to create a threat and was directly blocked by the goalkeeper.

After the tragic equalizer, the Chinese team began to frequently create threats, but it was always one step away from scoring.

Until the No.707 minute, Yang Yang pulled to the right. When receiving a pass from Zhou Haibin, he turned around and dribbled the ball inward, and then suddenly passed diagonally to the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area. Chen Tao quickly inserted along the right, chasing the ball.
