The head coach of the England team was also very surprised, and the comprehensive ability of the players of the Chinese Olympic team opposite should not be underestimated. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After the first two players in charge of the organization were frozen, there was actually a third player in the midfield who could pass a good ball forward, which shows that this player also has a certain ability to organize the attack.

It's rare for a team to have three playmakers in midfield.

But he now has to face such a situation, because Qu Wenming once again sent a good ball, this time it was Huang He on the right side who assisted and received Qu Wenming's extremely beautiful pass.

This pass is just a little in front of Huang He, which is very conducive to a fast player like Huang He who does not slow down and sprint directly with the ball, and Huang He did not waste this pass, because he started first, he threw off England left-back Hayden a big section, and then he easily passed the ball to Tang Jin who ran in place in an unmarked state, Tang Jin's header hit the goal frame powerfully, and the England team escaped a catastrophe.

At this time, the head coach of England had to let Swift retreat slightly and harass Qu Wenming's pass in the front court.

His tactic was indeed successful, Qu Wenming's pass success rate was indeed not as good as before in the state of interference, but the England team still had losses, because Swift's backward movement made England's frontcourt formation move back as a whole, and the pressure on the back line of the Chinese Olympic team was reduced a lot.

The two sides have again entered a phase of stalemate.

He Wei also saw the constant adjustment of the National Olympic team, and he said: "The strength of the three midfielders Yan Xiaoyu, Xiong Jian, and Qu Wenming is very good, and it is too rare for such players to have the ability to play forward." ”

In fact, this is also due to Zhang Sheng's convenience in talent selection, he will always choose the kind of player who can pass the ball and run, even if the player's physical fitness is poor, he doesn't care too much.

By the time the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the score was fixed at 0:0, leaving enough suspense for the second half.

This round is the final round of the group stage, and the points of several teams are tight, so the outcome of the game will determine whether the team can go further.

Now the group's points situation is very chaotic, although the Chinese Olympic team ranks first with 6 points, but England and Mexico are four points, if the Chinese Olympic team loses, then can only pray that Morocco wins Mexico, otherwise Mexico wins, then the Chinese Olympic team will be eliminated.

Therefore, for the Chinese Olympic team, this is a game to win with a draw, that is, the legendary "draw and qualify." ”

However, in the history of Chinese football, there are too many "draw and qualify" to end up in disgrace.

But the pressure was even higher on England as opponents.

Because whether it is Ivory Coast, which has played all the games and has five points, or Morocco, which has only two points now, there is hope of qualifying.

Once England loses, elimination is a certainty, even if they draw it depends on the score of the other game, once Mexico wins, what awaits England is the fate of elimination.

Therefore, fighting for victory is the most basic guarantee for them to qualify.

After the second half, England, desperate for victory, attacked even harder, using the high ball from the midfield to find the three strikers in front of them.

Such a purely British style of play did not bring much trouble to the back of the National Olympic team, after all, the success rate of such an attack is too low. Of course, once this kind of ball is caught, it is not without threat.

For example, in the ninth minute of the second half, Jack Hansen hoisted the ball into the penalty area of the Chinese Olympic team with a big foot on the left side, and England striker Robinson grabbed the first point, and his header almost broke through the door of the Chinese team.

England did not have a good offensive position, but they still have the ability to scratch the lottery with long passes.

The players on the field of the national Olympic team are also beginning to think about offensive opportunities.

Because the three players who can be responsible for organizing in the middle of the midfield have exchanged matches with each other, the national Olympic team urgently needs to open a breakthrough from somewhere else.

Ni Kai who stood up this time.

As a player who was called up with Reuss as a template, although it was a weakened version, he still had the corresponding playmaking skills, and he began to function as a wide midfielder.

In the twenty-first minute of the second half, Ni Kai did not rush to seek a breakthrough after getting the ball, but cooperated with Xiong Jian, who came to answer.

Several players from the England team rushed over to defend, and the defenders, including Hansen and Odubayo, were attracted to it.

In the end, the attack turned into a small 3-on-3 confrontation on the right side of England, as Yan Xiaoyu and Baker were also not far away.

The players in England only paid attention to Yan Xiaoyu and Xiong Jian's passes, and they didn't pay enough attention to Ni Kai, or this small negligence brought them disastrous consequences.

When Xiong Jian's pass was handed over to Ni Kai, Odubayo, who was defending Ni Kai, thought that he would pass the ball back nine times out of ten, but Ni Kai made a feint to pass to Xiong Jian, shook out a little cross angle, and directly took the ball to Tang Jin.

Tang Jin, who was swimming on the edge of the penalty area, was completely unguarded after receiving the ball, and he took a decisive shot, and the ball flew into the top right corner of the goal after bypassing the defense of the England central defender.

England's goalkeeper Walton couldn't get enough of the shot and could only watch as the ball flew into the net.

The Chinese team took the lead with an assist from Ni Kai.

Secondly, this local three-on-three confrontation is completely based on Ni Kai as the core of the organization, but the England team did not expect that Ni Kai also has the ability to organize in the front court.

He Wei also shouted for Ni Kai's beautiful pass: "The National Olympic team made continuous passes on the left, and the players from England came over. Ni Kai's pass, Tang Jin, Tang Jin's shot, beautiful, the ball went in. This transfer from the left to the middle is very beautiful, and Ni Kai's pass is too important. ”

Xu Yang also said: "This player can pass suddenly, his playing style is very flexible, and his playing style is also very advanced, he is the kind of rare wide midfielder player, if he can continue to develop, he is similar to Zhang Xizhe." ”

If Zhang Sheng heard this, he would definitely disagree, because Zhang Xizhe didn't have Ni Kai's speed and breakthrough ability.

After the goal, the national Olympic team played with great momentum, and there were four players who could play the ball in the front court, which made the England team completely confused.

But soon another characteristic of Ni Kai appeared, that is, the vitreous physique.

After the England team strengthened the defense of Ni Kai, Odubayo's movements were getting bigger and bigger, and in the 28th minute of the second half, he shoveled Ni Kai down with a reckless tackle, and Ni Kai fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

After the referee came over and gave Odubayo a yellow card, Ni Kai was brought out for treatment, but in the end he was still unable to insist on playing, and Fu Bo had to replace him with Wei Shihao.

He Wei also frowned and said: "Ni Kai's fate is not good news, I hope his injury is not too serious." ”

Xu Yang also sighed: "The Chinese team just played a threat on the left side, Ni Kai was tackled by the opponent, and this yellow card is really cost-effective for the England team." I hope Wei Shihao can play at his own level. ”

Xu Yang's words obviously wanted to say that Wei Shihao's ability was not as good as Ni Kai's, but Wei Shihao still reflected his ability.

Historically, the National Olympic team is not very neat, and most of the main players are fighting in the Chinese Super League, so the overall strength is very poor, and only one goal has been scored in four games, which is the worst result in the history of the Chinese Olympic team in the Toulon Cup.

But even so, Wei Shihao still added a lot of highlights to the national Olympic team, and even scouts from many European clubs thought that he was the only player with more characteristics in this national Olympic team.

After coming on as a substitute, Wei Shihao was very active on the left side, his man-ball combination ability and small skills at his feet were very rhythmic, and in the face of Odubayo, who had a yellow card on his body, he was even more unforgiving, making England's left side full of dangers.

Especially in the 30th minute, he continued to dribble and shake, and then took a shot from the left touchline of the penalty area, the ball crossed an arc and flew around Walton's flying palm to the right corner of the England goal, only to finally the ball grazed the post and flew off the bottom line.

His shot sent the England players in a cold sweat.

Seeing this situation, the England coach immediately chose to make a substitution, and right-back Odubayo was replaced.

England quickly stabilized their defence on the right after the substitution, and the two teams returned to parity on the field.

However, the score was completely unacceptable for England, who abandoned their defensive strategy and began to attack with all their might, and won a series of corners in attack.

As the team's number one set-piece, Baker exemplified his role when he decided to hit the Chinese Olympic team's goalkeeper Fang Jingqi after noticing his short height.

In the 34th minute of the second half, England got a corner kick opportunity on the left side, Baker's corner kick on the left side was actually punished with his right foot, this kind of instep internal rotation arc ball has very high requirements for footwork, but the ball hit the depths of the small penalty area, the opponent Jingqi caused a great threat, Akpong grabbed the first point and pushed the ball into the goal.

Just as Akpom was about to celebrate the goal, the linesman blew the whistle for him to foul him, and Akpoong had to accept the result.

But judging from the slow motion of the replay, Akpong did not foul him, and his body may be far stronger than the players of the Chinese Olympic Games, creating the illusion of a foul to the referee in the fight.

There was a first chance but not a second, and in the 37th minute, England won another corner, and it was Baker who took the penalty.

This corner kick on the right side once again showed Baker's ability, his corner on the right side was actually taken with his left foot, and it was also an instep curling ball, and the double backfoot stunt made the scouts who watched him from the sidelines admire.

Even He Wei said: "Baker is the future star of Chelsea, and there is actually no problem with the previous corner, and now I don't know how to defend this corner kick by the Olympic team." ”

In He Wei's commentary, the national Olympic team lost the ball, striker Ahrens grabbed the point in the penalty area again, headed the ball into the goal, the referee also blew the whistle for the goal, and the England team finally equalized before the end of the game.

Next, the players of the National Olympic team began to try to reduce the opportunity of the opponent's corner, and blocked the opponent in the midfield with three or four consecutive fouls, and the goal of the National Olympic team was held, but Xiong Jian and Zhu Xuhe both received yellow cards in a row and missed the next game.

At the end of the game, England never scored again, and the score was fixed at 1:1.

The result was also on the other pitch, with Morocco beating Mexico 2-1 on a controversial penalty to level five points with England and Ivory Coast.

In the end, after the comparison of goal difference and goals, the England team occupied the second place in the group with a slight advantage and got the opportunity to play the third or fourth place final, while the Chinese Olympic team started high and went low, and won the first place in the group with 7 points, and will compete for the championship with the host French team on June 8.

In last year's Toulon Cup, China sent the "National Olympic Second Team", which finally reached the third or fourth place finals, but lost to England and won the third place.

The domestic sports media have also spent a lot of space to report the results of the National Olympic team, and the fact that the Toulon Cup has been able to qualify by the second team for two consecutive years shows that Chinese football is a follow-up to young players, and its strength is steadily improving.

It's just that everyone mentioned one point, that is, whether it is last year's National Olympic team or this year's National Olympic team, it is basically composed of players from the Longteng team, which means that the Longteng team and one club will support the future of Chinese football.

When everyone was looking forward to the Chinese Olympic team breaking the runner-up result in 2007 and hitting the championship, Zhang Sheng, who was paying attention to the game, knew that this opportunity was not great.

Because of Xiong Jian, Zhu Xuhe was suspended and couldn't play, Ni Kai was injured, and the other players were also physically insufficient, and the National Olympic team with Longteng players as the main body basically lost the ability to play positional battles.

And the process of the game is also as Zhang Sheng predicted, without Xiong Jian's front and back tandem, without Zhu Xuhe's support for Huang He's complementary defense on the right side, and without Ni Kai's breakthrough and organization on the left side, the National Olympic team is constantly making mistakes whether it is offensive or defensive.

In the first half, the French team relied on a pass and a shot from Abron to turn the score into 2:0, although the national Olympic team made a large number of substitutions in the second half, it still did not work, even if Abrown was sent off for two yellow cards in a row, the French team still firmly grasped the situation on the field, and it was completely impossible to see that there was one less person than the Chinese Olympic team.

In the end, the French team relied on the counterattack of Kim Pemube to beat the Chinese Olympic team 3:0, and the host, who had not won the championship since 2007, finally got his wish.
