After the Dragons' continuous attacks in the second half, the players' fitness reached a bottleneck and they began to slow down a bit in their running. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, this is also the disadvantage of the lower league teams. Although the Longteng team is known for its more running, more pressing, strong physical confrontation and fast pace of the game in the second division, it really encountered the strong team of the Chinese Super League, and it still can't catch up with the opponent in terms of rhythm control and physical distribution.

Don't look at the second half of the team has been pressed by the Longteng team, but the players of the team have been accustomed to such a rhythm in the Chinese Super League. And the Longteng team has only encountered a few Super League teams in the limited FA Cup, and they are all teams in the bottom few places, even such a team makes the Longteng team a little unbearable, such as after the game with Liaoning Hongyun, the Longteng team has drawn a few games in a row in the league.

So after 75 minutes in the second half, first of all, the physical strength was a little unable to keep up, but the Longteng team, which was in a better situation on the field.

Zhang Sheng was also keenly aware of this problem. But this problem cannot be solved overnight, you can only let the team upgrade step by step, and then get used to the rhythm.

Liu Jianhong also observed the situation on the field: "Now the players of the Longteng team can't run a little, and the ability to press the midfield has now decreased, and the bottleneck of physical fitness should have arrived, which is also one of the biggest weaknesses of the low-level team." ”

Xu Yang also agreed with Liu Jianhong's statement: "It's true, the rhythm of the Longteng team in the second division league is definitely not as fast as the rhythm of this game, of course, this is also because it is the FA Cup final, the rhythm is definitely faster than the ordinary Chinese Super League game." In fact, the pace of the domestic league is already slow, I asked many players who have gone to Europe for trial training or played football, and they mentioned to me that the biggest difference between the Chinese Super League and the European League is two points, one is confrontation, and the other is rhythm. ”

"Oh, the Longteng team has begun to make substitutions, No. 13 Wen Kai replaced No. 11 Deng Chaoqun, this is a counterpoint substitution, replacing another striker with a striker, it seems that Coach Zhang Sheng has no intention of giving up this game. Deng Chaoqun ran more than 9,000 meters and scored a goal, and the 19-year-old performed very well. The running distance of 9,000 meters in 80 minutes is not a lot, but it is estimated that for this young player, it may be the most running race. Liu Jianhong also noticed the substitution request of the Longteng team on the sidelines.

In the 81st minute, Zhang Sheng replaced Deng Chaoqun, who had reached the limit of physical fitness, and let Wen Kai play, let him retreat slightly, strengthen the pressing of the midfield, and reduce Xu Mingyu's defensive pressure.

However, the experienced Gao Hongbo also keenly observed the weaknesses of the Longteng team. Replaced Sun Xuhai with Li Kai to strengthen the attack on the right side.

After Li Kai came on the field, Chen Jie on the right side immediately began to strengthen the attack. Zhang Sheng also discovered Gao Hongbo's intentions, and hurriedly replaced Zhou Hai, who had been running up and down for a whole time, and replaced him with Lu Zhihui.

But Zhang Sheng's substitution did not save the situation for the team. In the 86th minute, Renhe scored another goal to overtake the score.

In the 86th minute, in the midfield scramble, the whole game and attack, and to participate in the defense of Gao Jun's physical fitness has a serious deficiency, Yang Hao, who was holding the ball, took advantage of the physical advantage to stab the ball first, after getting the ball, Yang Hao handed the ball to Li Kai, who assisted, Li Kai gave the ball to Li Chunyu, Li Chunyu did not take the ball in the midfield, but gave it to Yu Hai on the left.

At this time, Yu Hai's skills and speed were reflected, and he accelerated in a continuous change of direction on the left side, and directly broke into the penalty area, forming a single knife. Wang Peng, who was a little worse in speed, had to pull Yu Hai down after being passed by Yu Hai.

The referee decisively rushed over and gave Wang Peng a red card and awarded a penalty. As the captain on the field, Wang Peng was also very helpless, and after begging the referee to fail, he still gave the captain's armband to Liu Xing, and left the game stupidly.

Yu Hai, who was in charge of taking the penalty, did it overnight. The Dragons were overtaken 1:2.

Liu Jianhong still has some objections to this decision: "Renhe and the team won a penalty, and this penalty is indisputable. But giving Wang Peng a red card is still a bit too heavy, since a penalty has been awarded, it is completely possible to give only a yellow card, because Wang Peng does not have any dangerous actions, just a pulling action in his hand. ”

Xu Yang also said: "If Wang Peng is sent off, the next game of the Longteng team will be difficult to play." According to the schedule of the Asian Youth Championship, tomorrow the Chinese national youth team will play against the Iranian national youth team, Qin Minghao and Li Yun must be the absolute main force, if they are eliminated, they can come back to play the final, but if they can defeat the Iranian team, then there will be a semi-final to play on the 14th, and even if the two of them return to China on the 15th, it is estimated that the physical fitness is not enough to support the FA Cup final. After all, the second leg of the FA Cup final is on the 18th and is away. ”

Liu Jianhong also said: "Although we also hope that the two of them will play better and let the national youth team reach the semi-finals, but in this way, it is indeed a bit unfair to the Longteng team, but it is a very rare opportunity to play for the country, I hope they will not be affected by this game." ”

After one less person, the Longteng team could only let Sun Yu come back to play central defender because the 3 substitutions had been used up, and Gao Jun could only withdraw to play the back. In this way, the advantage of the Dragons in the midfield is gone

In the rest of the game, the team launched a stormy offensive, and Yu Hai, Qu Bo and Rao Weihui kept using their speed to attack the defense of the Longteng team. However, the players of the Longteng team were united, and Liu Fangming saved three threatening shots from the team in a row to keep the game.

After the game, when Zhang Sheng and Gao Hongbo shook hands, Zhang Sheng said to Gao Hongbo: "Congratulations on winning the game. ”

Gao Hongbo said very seriously: "You just lack experience in the game, and the absence of the main force has a great impact on you, the players of your team are really very good, I am very envious." I'm looking forward to the next game against you. ”

Liu Jianhong summed up the performance of both sides in this game: "Although this game is a match between the second division team and the Chinese Super League team, we have seen a wonderful confrontation between several strong teams in the Chinese Super League. The game between the two sides was impressive from the scene, physical confrontation, and tactical confrontation. The Dragons missed two chances to score and hit the post. The man and the team also had a couple of very good chances. But most of the Longteng team are some young players, like Xu Mingyu, the midfield core of the Longteng team in this game, is only 16 years old, the other core Gao Jun is only 19 years old, and Deng Chaoqun, who scored a goal for the Longteng team, is only 20 years old. There are several players between the ages of 16 and 20 in the other positions who are doing well and I'm very optimistic about the future of this team. ”

Zhang Sheng didn't have any blame for the players after the loss in the locker room after the game, and Zhang Sheng only reminded Wang Peng, who was sent off with a red card: "You are a little impulsive with this red card, that ball, even if you let him in, there will be our goalkeeper." Pay attention next time. ”

Then Zhang Sheng still praised the team's performance: "The loss of this game, don't care too much, there will always be wins and losses in the game, at least from the perspective of the game, we are not behind, the big reason for the loss is because of your lack of experience, but I am very satisfied with your performance." Of course, you have also seen the true strength of the top teams in the Chinese Super League, and they are teams without foreign aid, so we have to work harder in the future. ”

'This game was our first defeat of the season and a lot of people must have been under a lot of pressure, but I hope you can turn that pressure into motivation to prepare for the next game. Rest well, everyone, and I'll give you a day off tomorrow. This is also the first time that Zhang Sheng has given the team a holiday after losing.

At the post-match press conference, the head coach of the visiting team, Gao Hongbo, was interviewed first.

When the reporter asked Gao Hongbo to evaluate the opponent, Gao Hongbo praised the performance of the Longteng team very seriously: "Although we won this game, the two sides were evenly matched on the field. The overall football played by the Dragons is a very advanced kind of football. The main reason we were able to beat them was that our players were more experienced and their players were too young, so I'm optimistic about the future of those players and this team. ”

Later, when the reporter asked Gao Hongbo about his plans to go out to study, Gao Hongbo did not give a positive answer: "Going abroad for further study is what I have always wanted, but these still need to be communicated with the club. ”

In fact, Gao Hongbo was originally going to mention this matter to the club after the FA Cup, but this game gave Gao Hongbo a great impact. In a second division team, the players are not necessarily stronger than their own players, and even a little weaker. However, the opponent's head coach relied on more advanced techniques and tactics to maneuver with himself for more than 80 minutes, and in the end, it was only the player's ability to keep up that led to the loss, otherwise the game would be difficult to say.

This shocked Gao Hongbo very much, and Zhang Sheng's study abroad experience also gave Gao Hongbo inspiration, in fact, Gao Hongbo had already had the experience of studying abroad before. He was the first young coach to study abroad at his own expense. In 99, he spent three months studying in Southampton, Arsenal and Crystal Palace in England, and then went to Germany, relying on Schlapner's connections, he went to Frankfurt and Mannheim to study with the team, and observed the training of Leverkusen and Bayern Munich on the spot.

But Zhang Sheng's tactical arrangement made him feel that he was lagging behind, and obviously his long-term study abroad in Germany must have been of great help to Zhang Sheng in training and tactics. Gao Hongbo used to be just an excuse to avoid people and the internal contradictions of the team, but after this game, Gao Hongbo had the idea of completely leaving his job for a long period of further study.

In Zhang Sheng's post-match interview, when the reporter asked Zhang Sheng what he thought of this defeat, Zhang Sheng replied very stiffly: "This game is just a loss, not the end of the world, we still have a chance in the next round." ”
