Wei Zhimin's breakthrough not only earned Longteng a well-positioned free-kick in front, but also allowed Zhou Ting to receive a yellow card. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's only been ten minutes since the game, and Beijing has already had two yellow cards, which is too passive. Liu Jiayuan sighed, "I don't know how Manzano is going to adjust." ”

Compared with the commentary, Zhang Sheng is now more concerned about Wei Zhimin's situation, because Zhou Ting's actions just now are not small.

However, Zhang Sheng was soon relieved, although Wei Zhimin was sitting on the ground covering his calves and grinning, but obviously this was just a hard injury, and it should be no problem to be able to rub it himself.

Sure enough, although Wei Zhimin limped a little after standing up, he didn't call the team doctor.

Seeing Wei Zhimin stand up, the fans also gave him warm applause.

Because the free-kick was on the wing, the Dragons opted to leave Ben Alfa alone with the player and let him choose between a cross or a direct shot.

Ben Alfa watched the situation in the box and sent the ball to the back post, which Nie Jiang, who circled around the box, grabbed the spot, and then volleyed the ball slightly over the crossbar.

"Nie Jiang's shot. It's a pity, it seems that he was unlucky today, he almost scored twice. Liu Jiayuan said regretfully, "But this running position in the penalty area is really okay." ”

Zhang Sheng shook his head regretfully as well, and then gave Nie Jiang a round of applause.

The continuous suppression forced Bei Jing Guoan to temporarily abandon the idea of attacking, and Manzano also gestured to the field, allowing the players to eliminate the offensive momentum of the Longteng team in the midfield first.

In the next game, Beijing Guoan sacrificed his magic weapon - foul Dafa, and began to frequently intercept and foul the ball-holding players of the Longteng team in the midfield.

This is also one of the places where Beijing Guoan has been criticized by domestic fans, who like to interrupt the opponent's rhythm by fouling too much.

So far, they have committed more than 200 fouls this season, ranking third in the Chinese Super League and ranking first among the top six teams in the standings.

In the previous two years, Beijing ranked second with 532 fouls in 2013 and No. 1 with 584 fouls in 2014, and looking at this year's momentum, it is just around the corner to win the top three.

When Kyukukan began to use foul tactics single-mindedly, the game became unsightly.

What made the players of the Longteng team even more unhappy was that it suddenly began to rain now, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier.

For example, before each home game, the club will arrange for the court staff to sprinkle water on the turf, which can make the ball roll on the ground faster, which is very beneficial for the Longteng team that emphasizes the technique of playing the foot and playing the ground pass.

But once the rain is heavy, the Longteng team will suffer very much, and the current rain is not what the Longteng players want at all, but it is Deyang, who insists on finding the frontcourt, and Bei Jing Guoan, who plays long passes and high balls, is happy.

In the twentieth minute of the first half, Kita Jing Guoan finally ushered in his first shot of the game.

This time, it was Bei Jing Guoan's pass in the back field that found Deyang in the front court, and Deyang headed the ball to Liu Xing on the left side, and Liu Xing passed directly to the Longteng team in the penalty area with a big foot after taking the ball.

Zhou Wei saw that the ball was a little close to the goal and began to attack, but when he attacked, he found that the ball was not as fast as usual after being soaked in rain, and it was a little far away from the landing point he judged, and he had to knock the ball out of the penalty area with both fists.

The players of the Longteng team did not expect Zhou Wei to choose this way, Roque Gill, who was guarding the top of the arc of the penalty area, did not prepare, so that Batala grabbed the second point, he played a long shot without stopping the ball, but God is fair, the soaked ball has an impact on Zhou Wei's judgment, and at the same time it also has an impact on Batala's shot, not to mention such a direct shot without stopping the ball, his foot did not kick the middle part at all, and the ball flew high and flew directly into the stands.

Liu Jiayuan also complained: "Batala's shot, this is also too biased. This should be the first shot of the game for Bei Jingguoan, right?"

Hearing Liu Jiayuan's inquiry, Hong Gang nodded and said, "Yes." Now that the rain is a bit heavy, Guoan's plan to be so high is useful, but this shot is too disappointing. ”

The game under the heavy rain gradually became tasteless, and although the Longteng team still had the advantage on the field, it was no longer so obvious.

For the heavy rain, the most unhappy player on the field of the Longteng team is Nie Jiang.

Playing in rainy days makes it more difficult for players to control the ball, especially for those players who mainly rely on foot skills, and Nie Jiang, who is still underage, is obviously the victim.

Because except for Nie Jiang, who is a typical player who relies on his foot skills to eat, football after immersion requires players to have more strength, and the 17-year-old is too weak in this area.

The players of Beijing Jing Guoan are all older, but they have the advantage of being older, that is, they are very experienced, and in the face of players like Nie Jiang who have limited skills and relatively poor confrontation, they have too many ways to make him unable to play his level.

Seeing this, Zhang Sheng could only make adjustments in the formation, letting Nie Jiang, who was originally in the center position, go to the side, and Pato to the middle.

This adjustment made Nie Jiang's situation a little better, but the frequent switching of positions of the three people who were very threatening in the front court of the Longteng team decreased a lot.

The attack momentum of the Longteng team weakened, and the corresponding offensive opportunities of Beijing Guoan increased.

In the final stage of the first half of the game, they used Deyang's frontcourt fulcrum ability to play several beautiful attacks, but Deyang went out of the penalty area as a fulcrum, and the shooter who finished the attack of Beijing Guoan was gone, and Batala and Zhang Chengdong used the perimeter long-range shots to threaten the Longteng team's goal many times, and the quality of the shots was not high.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the Dragons entered the locker room with a narrow 1-0 lead.

At halftime, Zhang Sheng asked Nie Jiang about the situation: "Are you still comfortable with the game?"

Nie Jiang said a little embarrassed: "The wind on my feet with the ball is not very smooth, and I can't start it at the first time." ”

Zhang Sheng nodded and said: "You don't have enough physical confrontation now, let's accumulate more experience, if the rain is still so heavy in the second half, you can rest first and see how Pato and Ben Alfa play." ”

Nie Jiang, who knew himself very well, didn't argue anything, he knew that the team was aimed at victory, especially against an opponent like Beijing Guoan, it was particularly important to score points, so he nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Seeing that Nie Jiang didn't have a mustard, Zhang Sheng nodded, then beckoned everyone over again, and said, "Let's change our sneakers in the second half, and everyone will change into spikes." ”

"Zou Weijia, you are ready to replace Nie Jiang in the second half, go warm up first. Zhang Sheng commanded again.

Zou Weijia, who was already eager to try, stood up and said, "Got it." ”

Zhang Sheng then advised: "After you go on the court, you must hold the ball steady in front of you." The two centre-backs on the opposite side are very experienced, don't be careless, and don't give the ball to your teammates behind you if you don't have a good chance to shoot. ”

Zou Weijia hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Zhang Sheng turned his head right and said, "Pato, Hart (Ben Alpha's nickname), as well as Tao Wentao and Lin Feng, you have to change positions more." Especially Lin Feng, you and Tao Wentao, take turns to run up and down, get Zou Weijia's ball, shoot from a distance when you have the opportunity, you have this ability. ”

Several of the players who were named also agreed.

After the half-time break, the rain did not abate, and although the staff turned on the drainage system of the stadium, the water on the stadium still appeared.

After discussing with the coaching staff, Zhang Sheng did not let Nie Jiang adapt anymore, and directly let Zou Weijia play.

When Liu Jiayuan saw the situation of the players on both sides in the second half, he also noticed this: "The Longteng team made a substitution in the midfield, and Nie Jiang, who missed several opportunities in the first half, was replaced by Zou Weijia. ”

Hong Gang guessed Zhang Sheng's idea of substitution: "It shouldn't be because of the reason for missing the goal." The main reason is that Nie Jiang is not very suitable for the more confrontational competition environment on rainy days. The newly replaced teenager Zou Weijia is different, nearly 1.9 meters tall, and strong, relatively speaking, the physical confrontation ability is much stronger, and he can also hold the ball in the front court. Nie Jiang still needs to grow more. ”

Liu Jiayuan said a few words for Nie Jiang: "After all, Nie Jiang is only 17 years old, and his body and experience need to grow. Then he changed the subject, "The game is on." ”

Compared with the adjustment of the Longteng team, the backward Bei Jing Guoan did not make a substitution, but they soon knew that the problem was coming.

Because Zou Weijia's performance is very good.

He is tall and has strong confrontation ability, although he does not have many opportunities to shoot, but his role as a fulcrum in the front court is still very obvious.

He leaned on Xu Yunlong or Lang Zheng many times and knocked the ball back to his teammates. And Pato, Ben Alpha, and Tao Wentao frequently changed positions behind him, and for a while, the defensive pressure of Beijing Guoan became very large.

Hong Gang was also very proud of his previous judgment: "It seems that Coach Zhang Sheng's substitution is very successful, Zou Weijia really played the role of the fulcrum of the frontcourt, although this young player has been substituted for many times, his ability is really not bad." ”

Seeing this situation, Manzano also gestured to the players in the back line, asking them to push Zou Weijia out of the penalty area, otherwise the Longteng team would press the team too much.

At this time, Guoan's two central defenders, Xu Yunlong and Lang Zheng, took turns to start a physical confrontation with Zou Weijia, hoping to use their bodies to push him out of the penalty area.

Although this approach did not fully meet expectations, it still allowed Zou Weijia's energy to be divided a lot, and his transfer of the ball was no longer as easy as before.

After Zhang Sheng found out about this situation, he made a gesture to Zou Weijia, asking him to retreat appropriately, while improving the quality of the transfer ball, he also transferred Guoan's central defender to make room for Lin Feng or Tao Wentao to shoot from a distance.

Zhang Sheng's move quickly paid off.

In the ninth minute of the second half, Pato, who had adjusted to the middle, got rid of the defense of Majic, who was carrying a yellow card, and handed the ball to Zou Weijia.

Seeing Zou Weijia holding the ball, Lang Zheng decisively pushed behind Zou Weijia, not letting him turn around, and at the same time not letting him comfortably pass the ball horizontally or diagonally in front of him.

Zou Weijia kept Zhang Sheng's advice in mind, and did not force the turn or pass the offensive ball, but knocked the ball back to Tao Wentao, who switched places with Pato from the right side.

It is difficult to pass the ball forward or laterally on the court, but it is relatively easy to make the ball with such a return pass, the quality of the ball passed by Zou Weijia to Tao Wentao is very good, Tao Wentao does not need to make adjustments, it is a long shot.

Because it was a rainy day, the ball was very slippery, and Yang Zhi, the goalkeeper of Beijing Guoan, did not dare to hold the ball, so he could only hit the ball, but the direction in which the ball was hit was exactly the front of the penalty area.

Pato showed the nose of a shooter at this time, he began to run from the right side to the penalty area when Yang Zhi started shooting, and in the face of Yang Zhi's ball in the penalty area, he shot a long shot.

Yang Zhi, who had just knocked the ball out of the penalty area, still fell to the ground, and there was no possibility of saving the ball at all, so he could only watch the ball fly towards the goal, but just when Yang Zhi gave up, the ball hit the post and popped up the bottom line.

Beijing Guoan escaped another catastrophe.

Manzano also broke out in a cold sweat, and he hurriedly gestured to Majic and Ha Dacheng, asking them to pay more attention to the scramble at the second point in front of the penalty area, and not let the Dragons get up at will in this place.

Manzano's command was still very timely, and then the players of the Longteng team tried to shoot in front of the penalty area many times, but they were only stared at by Majic and Ha Dacheng, and the ball was either shot too high under the interference, or it was shot too right, and did not pose much threat to the goal of North Jingguoan.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Sheng made a gesture to Lin Feng and asked him to switch positions with Tao Wentao to deal with it.

This trick really worked.

In the 23rd minute of the second half, Zou Weijia again distributed the ball to Ben Arfa in front of the penalty area. Ben Alpha couldn't turn around to shoot smoothly under the defense of Majic, so he knocked the ball to Tao Wentao, who was marked by another defender after taking the ball, and there was no good chance.

Tao Wentao took the ball back and took a few steps back, attracting He Dacheng out, and then saw Lin Feng, who was inserted at high speed, and knocked the ball sideways.

The Guoan team players, who were accustomed to seeing Lin Feng's pass, did not expect that after Lin Feng got the ball, he began to shoot from a distance nearly 30 meters away from the goal.

Lin Feng had already rushed up because he got the ball during the run, and Tao Wentao's pass was also very comfortable, so the power of the shot was very large.

By the time Yang Zhi started to pounce on the ball, the ball had already flown past his hands and into the goal.

The Dragons took advantage of this extremely beautiful world wave to extend the score to 2:0.
