From the very beginning of this game, Guangzhou Evergrande was stuck in Lin Feng's passing line.

In previous games, Lin Feng was able to rely on the connection between Pato and Ben Alpha on the left and right, plus the rapid passing of two fullbacks with super assist ability to tear apart the opponent's defense, but in the face of Guangzhou Evergrande, which has a better overall defensive formation and a more reasonable position, the offensive speed of the Longteng team is greatly reduced.

In the sixteenth minute of the first half, Guangzhou Evergrande relied on the assist of left-back Zou Zheng to burn the fire to the half of the Longteng team, and finally his attack was terminated by Zhou Zhou, and the Longteng team launched another attack.

When Zhou Zhou passed the ball to Lin Feng, the players in the front court of Guangzhou Evergrande basically reacted to the conditions of stress, Gaolat was stuck in Lin Feng's forward pass to Tao Wentao's route, and the players on both sides were stuck in Lin Feng's opportunity to pass to the side.

After Lin Feng got the ball, he observed it and found that there was no chance to pass the ball out to attack immediately, and the Longteng team did not have the habit of looking for a striker directly in the backfield, so Lin Feng had to pass the ball to Roke Gill, who was further back, to slow down the pace and find another opportunity.

At this time, Zou Zheng had already returned to the defense in place, and Guangzhou Evergrande's defense line had been neatly arranged.

Seeing this scene on the field, Zhang Sheng remembered what Scolari often said after coming to Guangzhou Evergrande, and kept emphasizing his gratitude to several of his predecessors.

The previous two coaches, including Cannavaro, did leave a lot of positive things for Guangzhou Evergrande.

Zhang Sheng had to start preparing for the next move.

When Lin Feng got the ball again, he made a beckoning gesture to Tao Wentao, which was to let Tao Wentao get closer to him and give him part of the task of attacking the organization.

This is the response that Zhang Sheng is preparing - don't you like the passing of my core? Then I'll add an offensive core and see how you defend.

In the twentieth minute of the first half, Lin Feng took the ball again to organize the attack, this time Tao Wentao took the initiative to lean over, at this time it can reflect the passing skills of the Longteng players, although Guangzhou Evergrande Gaolat is very active to prevent Lin Feng's pass, but it is basically impossible for a person to prevent the pass of two people.

Lin Feng and Tao Wentao played a very beautiful two-on-one match in the middle, and Gaolat's interference completely lost its effect.

In the case of Lin Feng and Tao Wentao's two arrows, there was a big crisis in the middle of Guangzhou Evergrande.

According to the understanding in previous games, Lin Feng was generally responsible for the tandem and Tao Wentao was responsible for running, but this time the Longteng team did the opposite and Tao Wentao was responsible for organizing the attack.

At this time, Paulinho was still following Lin Feng, but he didn't expect Lin Feng to hand over the ball to Tao Wentao to organize, including Evergrande's other defender who was also ready to defend against Lin Feng's pass.

So when Tao Wentao attacked with the ball, Guangzhou Evergrande actually gave him a lot of space, which was an extremely big mistake.

Tao Wentao passed the ball to Nie Jiang who came out to answer very easily, and Nie Jiang was very smart After attracting the opponent's Jin Yingquan, he did not let the ball stay at his feet, but immediately turned back and ran into the penalty area after a beautiful knockback.

Nie Jiang's running position attracted the attention of most of Guangzhou Evergrande's defensive players, and Lin Feng also moved laterally in front of the penalty area to prepare for the response, so Guangzhou Evergrande's defense was all placed in the middle and left.

Tao Wentao was also facing the left side of the goal at this time, with the intention of transferring the attack from the right side to the left side.

But what no one expected was that Tao Wentao made an extremely hidden diagonal straight plug to the right with his left foot, and all the players were blinded by Tao Wentao's pass, except for Pato, who was straight into the penalty area on the right side.

Because Guangzhou Evergrande is in a thorough defensive center of gravity to the left, the defenders on the right side of the attention are completely empty, when Pato inserts the ball into the penalty area, Evergrande has no one to follow him to defend.

Faced with such an easy shooting opportunity, Pato did not make any adjustments, and directly pushed the far corner with his left foot, and the ball went directly into the net after passing the palm that Zengcheng was trying to reach.

The Longteng team relied on a clever run in the midfield and Tao Wentao's hidden pass to break the deadlock, and the score became 1:0.

Duan Xuan was also amazed by Tao Wentao's clever pass: "The attack of the Longteng team, Tao Wentao took the ball, beautiful, this pass deceived all the people, Pato single-handedly, shot! The ball went in, beautiful shot! Beautiful cooperation! Evergrande's defense line is so neatly placed, it is still useless." ”

Xu Yang also praised Tao Wentao's assist with beautiful words: "It's really beautiful, such an imaginative pass, from the feet of a young player who is less than twenty years old, is amazing enough." Since Ding Huaiyi left the Longteng team, we thought it would be difficult to see such a whimsical pass again, but we didn't expect that the Longteng team did not disappoint us, and Tao Wentao did not disappoint us. ”

Zhang Sheng also applauded proudly on the sidelines, and his face was full of joy in the face of the hug that Pato and Tao Wentao rushed up.

This goal reflects the difference between Longteng and all the Chinese Super League teams.

In other Chinese Super League teams, the central axis is 100% of the world of foreign aid, and domestic players are more in a subordinate position.

Therefore, in the game between each other, as long as the players on the central axis are strictly marked, the opponent's offense will cost more than half, and in the Longteng team, it is completely the opposite, the players on the central axis are the top in the country, they will run, they will cooperate, and they can send good balls with foreign aid at critical moments, and even score directly.

On this basis, the Longteng team also has two foreign players who have won the Super League, which is even more terrifying.

Invincible, this is the feeling of all Chinese Super League teams when playing against Longteng, and now it is Guangzhou Evergrande's turn to taste this helpless taste.

In fact, if you go deeper, this goal also has a deeper tactical significance.

At the beginning of the game, although the Longteng team was still accustomed to playing without a striker, it was still obvious that this strikerless formation was born from the 4-2-3-1 formation, but after the attack was blocked, Zhang Sheng immediately changed the formation, and it still looked like a striker formation, but the core content became a 4-3-3 formation because of Tao Wentao's retreat.

In the 4-2-3-1, Lin Feng is a slightly abrupt one of the 2, which is the most critical point in this formation, and when it changes to 4-3-3, there are two players in the middle 3 who can play a key role, Lin Feng and Tao Wentao.

Guangzhou Evergrande failed to respond in time, allowing Tao Wentao to gain too much space, resulting in the loss of the ball.

In fact, not only the Longteng team, in the next few years of the AFC Champions League-level competition, many teams have also offered such a way of playing, so that Guangzhou Evergrande's AFC Champions League game has become extremely difficult, Evergrande's victory is more of a miserable victory or a small victory, the reason why it is still based on victory, in addition to the ability and reserve of Evergrande players are relatively strong, the self-confidence brought by habitual victory is the most critical element.

When Seoul FC actually brought in Yojiro Takahagi in order to build a multi-core (Korean teams rarely bring in Japanese players), like Jeonbuk Hyundai learned the tactics of Japanese teams, strengthening one-shot shots and more off-ball running, and like Gamba Osaka making more tactical adjustments, Evergrande's AFC Champions League will be even more difficult to play.

However, domestic teams are trapped by the lack of good local players, and most of them adhere to the "single-engine" tactics to make Evergrande win again and again.

However, Scolari is still a top coach after all, and after conceding the goal this time, he immediately realized the problem of his midfield arrangement - it is extremely dangerous to rely on Goulart alone to cut off the attacks of Lin Feng and Tao Wentao.

Since the Longteng team withdrew Tao Wentao to play 4-3-3, Scolari decisively let Paulinho go forward, which can not only allow him and Goulart to join forces to destroy the cooperation between Lin Feng and Tao Wentao, but also allow Paulinho to get closer to the goal of the Longteng team to create a chance to score.

So after kicking off again, Guangzhou Evergrande's formation changed from a 4-2-3-1 formation to a 4-1-4-1 formation, and Evergrande's oppressiveness in the front court rose at once.

In the 27th minute of the first half, Guangzhou Evergrande made a key steal by Paulinho in the front, he grasped Lin Feng's passing line for the first time, intercepted the ball in the middle of the road, and Guangzhou Evergrande played a beautiful counterattack.

Because this time it was in the middle of the field, the frontcourt players of the Longteng team basically did not come back in front, and only Lin Feng and Roque Gill were intercepting in the midfield.

Paulinho took advantage of his Brazilian fellow between him and Goulart, and he still accurately sent the ball to Goulart in the face of Lin Feng's counter-attack and Roque Gill's assistance.

With the two midfielders out of position, Goulart had the chance to shoot, but he still dodged out of space in the face of Ma Yongli's up-and-down and fired a shot from front of the box to the corner.

Fortunately, Huang Dawei's attention was extremely focused at this time, he quickly fell to the ground to make a save, rubbed the ball with his fingertips, the ball changed a little direction, smashed on the post and popped up the bottom line.

Goulart, who had completed the shot, shook his hand regretfully when he saw it, and Scolari, who was on the sidelines, also held his forehead with his hand and sighed.

Duan Xuan also felt sorry for Goulart's shot: "Paulinho sent a second pass, and Goulart also used his personal ability to get rid of the defense of the Longteng players, and a very beautiful shot hit the post. ”

However, Xu Yang saw some doorways: "The main reason for this attack is that Scolari's adjustment is good. After letting Tao Wentao retreat, the Longteng team had two points in the midfield, and Scolari immediately let Paulinho go up. Guangzhou Evergrande now has a weather vane, that is, Paulinho has gone up more, so Evergrande's overall performance is good, once Paulinho can't go up, Evergrande will be difficult. ”

From Guangzhou Evergrande's attack, Zhang Sheng is keenly aware of one of his team's current disadvantages, that is, it is no longer realistic to rely on the middle to support the attack.

Guangzhou Evergrande, which has Paulinho, may be in a hurry for the sudden change of formation of the Longteng team, but once they are alert, it is their own middle lane dominated by domestic players who suffer even more, and the Longteng team was beaten through the middle just now.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng walked out of the coach's bench and made a gesture to the players on the side to press the attack.

Zhang Sheng's attitude is obvious - since I have no chance to attack the middle, then I will take the side, use my strong players on the side to suppress you, it is good to be able to open a breakthrough from the side, even if you can't create a goal directly from the side, once Evergrande comes to support the side in the middle, the gap in the middle will definitely be exposed.

Sure enough, when Lin Feng and Tao Wentao were mostly defensive, and the main task became to assist the players on the side to attack, Guangzhou Evergrande was under a lot of pressure on the two sides.

The first to feel this side is Zou Zheng on the left.

As the left fullback who started this game, Zou Zheng was in front of foreign aid Robinho, who was a "bicycle old man" who likes to break through but does not like to return to defense.

Historically, since coming to the Chinese Super League, Robinho's state can only be said to be average, and he came to the Chinese Super League with a great reputation, but half a season has passed, leaving three goals and one assist, of which two goals are really facing the extremely weak Shanghai Shenxin, which has already been determined to be relegated.

This kind of performance is really a bit unreasonable.

Specific to his role in Evergrande's tactical system, it is even less pitiful, because of age and state, the speed advantage that he relied on to become famous is gone, and the habit of playing football for a long time makes him not like to play with each other, and what is worse is that his defensive awareness and attitude are very poor, which makes Evergrande who likes to press in a high position very helpless.

Some fans even complained that he was the speed of Da Luo in the later stage + Torres's shooting skills in the later stage.

Historically, Atletico Mineiro, who returned to Brazil after leaving the Chinese Super League, also played a mess, often coming on as a substitute to play for ten minutes and then couldn't run, which was very disliked by the then head coach Aguirre.

This is exactly the case now, he was shaking and pedaling his bicycle there at a not too fast speed in the front court to break through Zhou Zhou's defense, but unfortunately the opponent easily used his physical advantage to squeeze him away and break the ball.

Robinho didn't make any defensive moves after being cut off, but just symbolically stopped Zhou Zhou and gave up the pursuit.

Zhou Zhou easily evaded his interception and dribbled forward, and immediately passed the ball to Pato after seeing Paulinho coming to make up for the defense.

Because Robinho did not return to defend and Paulinho was out of position again, Pato got the opportunity to face Guangzhou Evergrande left wingback Zou Zheng alone.

For Pato, who has already started at a pace, Zou Zheng is completely at a disadvantage, and Evergrande's left defense suddenly becomes noisy!
