Chapter 256 The Unsatisfactory Halftime
The strength of Turkey is not only recognized by the players and coaches of the Chinese team, but also by Turkish fans.

This Turkish national youth team has Hakan Charhanoglu they rely on, Omer Toprak they are familiar with, and Ozan Tufan who they look at with enthusiasm.

When Turkish fans think that the Turkish national team midfielder will be composed of Hakan Charhanoglu and Hakan Suker in the future, they think this picture is too beautiful...

It stands to reason that the Turkish national youth team with such a strong lineup should completely control the rhythm at their feet from the beginning of the game, and then quickly resolve the battle, so that the rest of the time will become garbage time.

That's what Lucescu, standing courtside at Philips Stadium in a training jersey emblazoned with the moon and stars, thinks so.

This is the first time he has played against an Asian team. In the past battle history, Turkey encountered an Asian team and almost won it completely.

In the most ancient times, they beat South Korea 7-0. In the recent Korea-Japan World Cup, they also defeated South Korea and won the third place.

In the youth friendly matches in recent years, Turkey has basically crushed the Asian youth teams one-sidedly.Japan, South Korea and Ishaao, representing the top teams in Asia, are not Turkey's opponents.As a second- and third-rate Chinese team, can they leverage Türkiye?

Although he is the champion of the Asian Youth Championship, he also achieved a good result of one win and one draw in the first two games of the group stage.

But Lucescu believes that the strength of this Chinese team should not be so strong. Ten years ago, the Turks taught the arrogant and ignorant Chinese with a 3-0 bitter lesson.Turkey has become stronger after ten years of development. It is normal for them to lose to Turkey. The suspense is only a few goals lost.

As for the match against Morocco in Amsterdam, Lucescu chose to forget it. That match could not represent the true strength of Turkey at all, not to mention that he won that match...

But when the game started, Lucescu found that the situation was not quite the same as he imagined.

The Turkish national youth with Hakan Calhanoglu, Omer Toprak, and Ozan Tufan did not have the upper hand when facing the Chinese teenagers!
On the contrary, in the midfield, the situation is still somewhat deadlocked...

The Turkish National Youth, who has always been keen on bayonets in the midfield, was a bit suppressed in the fight with the Chinese team in the midfield.

Lucescu couldn't believe the picture in front of him. Is this still the Turkey he is familiar with?Where did the fierce and brave style of play go?Being put down with his body by an East Asian team, do you want Turkey's old face?
At the same time, he was also surprised by the ferocity of the Chinese team. The Turkish players were already very fierce, but the Chinese players were even more ferocious.It is clear that the collision does not have any advantage, but they are desperate to post it up.

You are not afraid of injury when you tackle the ball, but I am not afraid of death when you tackle the ball!Let's see who can beat who!
In the desperate state of the Chinese team players, Turkey lost to the East Asian team for the first time in hand-to-hand combat, and there is a faint tendency to retreat.

This also corresponds to the sentence, if you rush, you are afraid of being stunned, if you are stunned, you are afraid of being violent, and if you are violent, you are afraid of dying.I don't even want my life, what else is there to be afraid of!

Such a situation made Lucescu frown. This first half was far from smooth as he thought.

On the left hand side of Lucescu, the Chinese coach Kerry, his face is a little more relaxed than that of Lucescu.

There is no doubt that the first 15 minutes of the game were completely in line with the course of the game he predicted.The players played the bravery he wanted. Faced with such a situation, Turkey seemed helpless and had obvious fear of the Chinese team.

If this trend continues, after the first half, the second half will be able to deal a fatal blow to Turkey as planned.

However, compared with Kerry's relative ease, Rose, who was sitting on the bench, was very worried.Because the Chinese team unexpectedly took the initiative on the field, according to the original calculation, the Chinese team used up the physical strength of Turkey through a frontal confrontation. The implication is that the Chinese team is the passive side.

But now the Chinese team has taken the initiative in the midfield, grabbing control of the midfield at the feet of the Turks, who are good at physical confrontation!
what does that mean?This means that the Chinese team consumes more physical energy.In order to gain control, it is almost desperate, which is the opposite of the original strategy of consuming Turkey.

If this state continues, what will the Chinese team use to attack their opponents in the second half?

The more Rose thought about it, the more he felt that the risk of the Chinese team was too great, and he almost put the hope of victory in the consumption of the first half.

Like Ross, Xu Zangyi has the same bad feeling. Although the Chinese team is in the upper hand in this scene, Xu Zangyi feels very uneasy about this feeling of dominance.

It's as if you have tried your best to deal with the other party, but the other party is not doing your best.On the contrary, he is still deliberately hiding something and waiting for the opportunity to release all the hidden power when you least expect it.

In all fairness, there seems to be a feeling of being shot in the back at any time, and anyone will feel uneasy.

Those who don't have this feeling can only explain it by not catching this crisis.

For example, National Youth coach Kerry, most of the assistant coaches and players on the bench, fans in front of the TV, and countless experts.

The Chinese team suppressed their opponents in the way Turkey is good at. In their eyes, this is definitely a positive signal and a signal that they can defeat their opponents.

Among them, many football journalists and experts began to advocate Kerry's employment arrangements and the prospects of the Chinese team's World Youth Championship.

What's more, some people began to discuss what kind of formation the Chinese team will use to face their opponents in the next knockout round.

And the crisis is in this piece of singing and dancing, slowly approaching the Chinese team...

……

At 10:0 minutes into the first half of the game, the pace of confrontation on the field slowed down, and the situation of one after another at the beginning did not reappear, and the score remained at 0-[-].

Lucescu walked to the sidelines and made several gestures to convey his combat intentions to the Turkish players on the field.

Regarding the significance of Lucescu's gesture, it is difficult for outsiders to understand except for the Turkish players on the field.

But it's not a big deal, no matter what tricks you play, just come here, the Chinese team will use the hormonal Great Wall of Steel to teach you how to behave!
This is the unanimous thought of Kerry on the sidelines, fans and experts on TV.

Yes!Lucescu's few gestures no one cares what they mean, anyway, they will fall at the feet of the Chinese team players, at best it is just another way.

But soon they realized their wrong ideas, and it was too late when Kerry paid attention to the changes in Turkey...

……

At No.30 seven points in the first half, Turkish star midfielder Hakan Charhanoglu pushed from the upper corner of the penalty area and scored!
Following the lore against Morocco, Hakan Charhanoglu scored another priceless goal.

　happy new year everyone
