21. Encounter strong enemies in a row
"Lu Yangyang has made meritorious contributions. Lou Yicheng almost forgot his previous doubts about Lu Yangyang at this time, "The young man kicks like this, and the future is limitless." β
This is another advantage of Lu Yangyang. Liu Yue also proudly introduced, "His speed is definitely the top among the central defenders, so in the chase part, he is exceptionally good, which is completely the last insurance for a team like Longteng that likes to press out and play attack." β
"What I am most optimistic about him is his unyielding energy. Looking at Lu Yangyang's back-up defense this time, I think of another player in China, Sun Xuhai, who also had a shocking back-up defense success in the Premier League. I hope that Lu Yangyang can reach or even surpass the heights of these predecessors. Lou Yicheng lifted Lu Yangyang to an incredible height in one fell swoop.
At this time, Kashima Antlers on the field was preparing for a corner kick, perhaps considering the header advantage of Lu Yangyang and Lu Zhihui in the penalty area, Kashima Antlers chose to play a tactical corner, their Brazilian foreign aid Leandro received a corner kick pass from his teammates, and moved to the front of the penalty area with the ball laterally, but the Longteng team quickly pressed out their own defense layer, although Leandro used his skills to get rid of the interception of the Longteng team's two-goal players, but he was already defended by the Longteng team's players to turn his back to the goal.
The offensive player's back to the goal is likely to mean the re-organization of the attack, and the time of the game no longer allows such a slow organization of the attack, seeing that his teammates are basically not in a good position, Leandro finally chose to shoot from a distance.
Leandro's long-range shot is actually not very threatening, the power and angle are average, but when the ball flew into the penalty area, it hit Lu Yangyang's hand.
All Kashima Antlers players raised their hands at the same time to signal to the referee β it was a penalty.
The referee was also very decisive, not far from the penalty area, he clearly saw the whole process, he rushed to the penalty area and pointed his finger at the penalty spot - it was a penalty.
Lu Yangyang hurriedly came up to explain to the referee, explaining that he did not mean handball, but the referee did not waver in his decision.
"When you shoot in the box, you have to keep your arms close to your body, and it's better to be behind you. Lou Yicheng has been commenting on the game for nearly 20 years and has a good grasp of the characteristics of these young players, "It's still inexperienced." Koji is just 18 years old, which is too young for the position of central defender. β
Just now, Lou Yicheng and Liu Yue touted Lu Yangyang's position very high, and now it is not easy to criticize him for this low-level mistake. Liu Yue also said with a little regret: "I hope Xiaolu will not be affected by such a mistake, the game is not over yet, and the penalty kick may be saved." β
Like Lu Yangyang's first touch on the field, Lu Zhihui, as the captain, did not blame him for this mistake, but comforted Lu Yangyang again: "It's okay, this is also bad luck." Next time, put your hands on your back, so that the probability of handball in the box is much smaller, and that's how I came. There's still time, even if the penalty goes in, it's a big deal that we'll score another one. β
At this time, after following Lu Yangyang's negotiation with the referee, the broadcast camera happened to capture Lu Zhihui's appeasement of Lu Yangyang, and the concerned expression on Lu Zhihui's face was overflowing.
Seeing this scene, Liu Yue remembered his painful past, Wei Daxia, the captain General Fan's attitude towards himself flashed in his mind one by one, and he blurted out: "Lu Zhihui is really a good captain." β
Lou Yicheng didn't pay attention to Liu Yue's clueless words, he stared at the situation on the field: "Kashima Antlers arranged for Yuma Suzuki to take this penalty. Run-up, shot. Alas, the ball went in. In the 83rd minute, Kashima Antlers equalized. β
After scoring this goal, Kashima Antlers really saw the hope of winning, and the team's head coach Masata Ishii replaced another young striker, Kenji Kanamori, for foreign player JΓΊnior, apparently trying to use the young player's physical strength to rush.
The Longteng team, which was unwilling to be forced to draw at home, also made adjustments, and Zhang Sheng replaced Xiang Tiange with Huang He to maintain the offensive strength on the right side.
There were only ten minutes left in the game, but the field was getting more and more lively.
Because of the upset loss to Montton United in the second round, Kashima Antlers are now one point less than the dark horse of the Thai Super League and are third in the group. In order not to be ridiculed for being escorted to the Club World Cup and being eliminated from the AFC Champions League group, Kashima Antlers rarely put more energy into the AFC Champions League than in the J-League.
In order to ensure the physical fitness of the team's away games, Kashima Antlers applied to the J-League Committee for the postponement of the league last weekend, and the J-League Committee also supported Kashima Antlers' investment in the AFC Champions League and happily released it, so the game was played at this time, and the lack of physical fitness at home in the last leg did not appear in the away game this time, and until now the players still have enough physical strength to sprint back and forth.
"The tempo of both sides hasn't dropped much, which is a rarity. Lou Yicheng said he was surprised, "I have always heard that the Longteng team can maintain the most running and sprinting data in the Super League, and the physical reserve capacity is very *** The league team has always been known for its sudden outburst before the end of the first and second halves." Now it seems that there is no vanity under the fame. β
"With good fundamentals and skills, reducing mistakes and ensuring the effectiveness of running is what the Dragons and many teams in the J-League have in common. Liu Yue analyzed very professionally, "You see that now the Longteng team organizes the attack, and there are at least five people around Qi Ming who are holding the ball, and there are at least five people running without the ball to respond, and when Qi Ming carries the ball, he is always in a state of holding his head up, and he can observe the running position of his teammates at any time." Passing the ball in unison, receiving, passing again, dividing the side, these few times, whether it is a passing player or a receiving player, the accuracy of the pass is very high......"
Liu Yue's commentary is very professional to explain the attack of the Longteng team this time.
Qi Ming's dispatch in the back position, after continuous passing and pulling, distributed the ball to the energetic Huang He on the right side, who flashed the pass gap after the continuous change of speed and direction on the side, and then passed the ball back to the front of the penalty area in the inverted triangle, Chavez who retreated from the penalty area leaned on the central defender who followed the defense to make the ball horizontally, Nie Jiang entered the penalty area under the cover of Tao Wentao and shot decisively, fortunately, the goalkeeper Kwon Soon Tae of Kashima Antlers showed excellent form, and his save turned Nie Jiang's inevitable goal into a corner.
"The Dragons' positional advancement ability is really strong. Lou Yicheng praised the attack of the Longteng team.
After completing this attack, Zhang Sheng, who was on the sidelines, also clapped and shouted loudly to the court: "Kick like this, strengthen your running." β
In the next game, although there were a lot of such attacks on both sides, with the defensive intensity of the midfield increasing again, although the Longteng team had a certain advantage, it was difficult to penetrate the defense of Kashima Antlers again.
It wasn't until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game that the score was still fixed at 1:1, and Kashima Antlers were satisfied with getting one point away from home.
Compared with the previous game, although the Longteng team failed to win at home and seriously injured a player, Zhang Sheng did not criticize any players, after all, their attitude towards the game is no problem.
After this round of matches, Mongthong United, who continue to play the role of dark horses, defeated Ulsan Hyundai of South Korea's K-League 1-0 at home to maintain the second place in the group. And several other Chinese Super League teams, obviously affected by the national team competition and the league such a three-line battle, Evergrande away was forced to draw, SIPG lost the game, only Jiangsu Suning, which was affected by the international football, maintained a full victory, fortunately, the previous rounds of games laid a good foundation, the four teams of the Super League are the first and second positions in the group, leading the team behind the points are still a lot, the strength of the Super League club still continues.
Outside the MRI room of Tongji Hospital, Li Xiang, the team leader of the Longteng team, and an assistant are waiting for Ma Yongli's imaging results.
"Crunch. The door to the MRI room was opened, and Ma Yongli was helped out.
Li Xiang's assistant hurriedly went up to help pick up Ma Yongli, and then assisted him to sit on the bench in the corridor.
No one made any sound during the whole process, the space seemed to have been frozen, and after Ma Yongli sat firmly, he also held his forehead with his hand and closed his eyes silently.
Li Xiang silently left and walked into the reception room, where he and Professor Xu's students analyzed the image source film.
"Bang. The sound of the reception room closing attracted everyone's attention, and Li Xiang, who had just thanked Professor Xu's student, still had a smirk on his face at this time, but when he turned his head, his face had changed to extremely serious.
"The results are in. Li Xiang looked at Ma Yongli and his assistant who were looking at him.
Li Xiang, who was just about to introduce the diagnosis results, was interrupted by the ringtone of the mobile phone of the Xiaomi Mi 5 sponsored by the club in his pocket, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it, it was the head coach Zhang Sheng who called, obviously the other side was also concerned about Ma Yongli's situation: "Zhang Zhi." Well, well, the results have come down, not very ideal. β
Looking up at Ma Yongli, who was looking at him with blank eyes, Li Xiang turned sideways and whispered the result: "The cruciate ligament is seriously torn, and the medial ligament of the right knee is torn." Surgery is necessary, and Professor Xu has agreed to come over for guided surgery. It is expected that the recovery time will be at least 6 months, and it is very likely that the Super League will not be available this season. β
"Hmm......" Zhang Sheng, who was on the other side of the phone, fell silent for a while, "I'll come over later." β
On the way to the hospital, Zhang Sheng, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, was thinking about how to comfort Ma Yongli.
This is a player with a very tortuous career, although he was just 22 years old in 95, and he played the core of defense in a top Chinese Super League club like Longteng, in fact, if there was no Zhang Sheng, after spending all the family's savings, Ma Yongli may have fallen under the "age change" turmoil, and even so, he was banned for one year.
The chief designer once famously said: A good system can make bad people unable to do bad things, and a bad system can make good people bad, Ma Yongli is actually a victim in the dark period of Chinese football in the past ten years.
And this time, Ma Yongli was hit on the pitch.
Zhang Sheng, who rushed to the hospital, saw a depressed Ma Yongli.
"Do you know the specific situation?" Zhang Sheng asked, Ma Yongli, who had already completed the admission procedures and was lying on the hospital bed.
Ma Yongli shook his head: "Dr. Li didn't tell me, but I probably guessed it." β
After relaying the diagnosis introduced by Li Xiang, Zhang Sheng comforted Ma Yongli and said, "Don't worry. Professor Xu, you have seen, I have been working with our club for a long time, he has strong surgical ability, and he helped to do several injuries in the team before, and Li Jian, who is in charge of the goalkeeper coach, has been treated for such serious old injuries. You're fine here. β
"I'm not worried about surgery. Ma Yongli said in a sullen voice: "I'm worried about the future." β
"What is there to worry about in the future. Zhang Sheng encouraged, "Don't talk about it from afar, just talk about your senior brother Li Yun." He's not hurt as much as yours, but now, not to mention the defense, his centre-back is getting better and better. Your advantage comes from your skill at your feet, not absolute speed and explosiveness. Don't worry, the surgery is done to recover well, you are the vice-captain, and everyone in the team is waiting for you. β
"Hmm. I know. Ma Yongli accepted Zhang Sheng's appeasement.
In fact, the endurance and endurance of this group of players in the early days of the Longteng team can be said to be rare among Chinese players. The vast majority of them are still able to play football thanks to the appearance of Zhang Sheng, which is completely due to people.
For them, setbacks are just a stop in life.
Returning home from the hospital, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, and comforted Ma Yongli one by one, the reality is that in the league four days later, the Longteng team will face Guangzhou Evergrande at home, and Ma Yongli's absence will be a big blow to the Longteng team.
Now that the Dragons are missing De Paul and Ma Yongli, the two key players in the front and back, the attack and defense have been greatly affected, and in the days before the game, I, the entire coaching staff and players are going through a busy period.
This season, Guangzhou Evergrande has not introduced many players, but young players like Du Zhenyu are the focus of the introduction.
Since 2011, Guangzhou Evergrande has started the collection of Chinese internationals, and a large number of Chinese internationals have been collected into the team by Evergrande like a code puzzle, and basically the internationals that can not be bought or even the marginal internationals have been collected by them.
But 6 years have passed, and these players have gradually entered a period of decline of players, and the overall age of Guangzhou Evergrande players has been criticized by the outside world.
Since the beginning of the past two years, the club has also realized this problem, starting from Lin Feng to Du Zhenyu's joining, Evergrande has not bought as many people as before in the past two years, but Evergrande's arrogance of spending a lot of money has not changed.
If you add Evergrande's spending on foreign aid, it can be said that everyone was unanimously optimistic about Evergrande regaining the lost league championship at the beginning of the season.
