"Evergrande's counterattack. Diego Costa's header in the penalty area is back, Paulinho's shot is on goal!" Liu Jiayuan spoke quickly, "Huang Dawei saved, and Dawn cleared. The ball didn't kick far, Lin Feng grabbed the second point and shot directly, Lu Zhihui blocked it, Goulart's supplementary shot, and the ball went in. Guangzhou Evergrande took a 2-0 lead. ”

"This time was too chaotic just now, Evergrande's continuous shooting, the Longteng team is a bit barren in the penalty area, this defense is not like the situation that the best team in the Super League defense should have. Liu Jiayuan breathed a sigh of relief, "The players of the Longteng team are signaling to the referee that Evergrande's ball is offside, let's see how the referee decides." ”

"The referee upheld the decision and the Iranian referee Faghani was very resolute. With the next slow-motion replay, we should be able to see what's going on. "There was a chaotic battle inside and outside the forbidden area just now, and obviously Shen Fangjian didn't see the specific situation clearly.

Sure enough, the slow motion explained the goal very clearly, when Lin Feng shot, the football was indeed blocked by Lu Zhihui, and Gaolat was indeed in an offside position relative to Lu Zhihui, but Lu Zhihui's ball did not fly directly to Gaolat, and Ma Yongli blocked it again in the middle, and Gaolat was not offside at this time.

It can be said that Fagani's decision is still very accurate.

What Zhang Sheng didn't know was that this referee would later become the sworn enemy of Chinese fans, and also the sworn enemy of fans in Germany, Chile, Syria and other countries.

"This ball, the Longteng team is still panicked, but Evergrande's offensive sense of hierarchy is really strong, and the efficiency is also very high. The Dragons failed to take advantage of their chances before and are now being punished. Liu Jiayuan sighed, "But the Longteng team still has a chance." It's not that they can't attack. It's just a waste. ”

In the past games between Evergrande and the Longteng team, because Evergrande did not have a deterrent player who could stand in the penalty area, the Longteng team could always resolve the key ball in the penalty area.

In other words, the Longteng team has been very successful in marking the ball carrier and cutting the ball line in the ball area, but now it needs to work harder.

At this time, after scoring on the field, Goulart happily jumped on the back of Diego Costa, "His arsenic, my honey." "It's a true reflection of Diego Costa.

conceded two goals in a row in the first half, which made it difficult for the Longteng fans who came to watch the game to accept it for a while.

Today's day is not a weekend or a national holiday, but countless Hubei fans outside Jiangcheng have asked for leave to watch the game through various excuses, and everyone was looking forward to the team being able to defeat the old opponent at home, smoothly enter the AFC Champions League final, and strive to be the second club to defend the AFC Champions League, the first Chinese Super League club to defend the AFC Champions League.

But Guangzhou Evergrande has now given the team two stabs.

'We cheer when the team wins, and we should cheer them on when they are behind. Chen Jiangfeng quickly broke free from the depression of falling behind by two goals, and said vigorously to the three roommates who came over, "Longteng team, come on! Longteng team, come on!"

With a few sporadic cheers, the Jiangcheng Sports Center once again set off a frenzy of cheering.

Zhang Sheng, who was on the sidelines, also made timely adjustments, Tao Wentao temporarily stabilized, let Xiong Jian breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time strengthened the impact of Luther Paul on the left, after all, Qi Ming's ability is enough to cover the left wing.

Influenced by the cheers of the fans, coupled with the timely arrangement of countermeasures by the head coach, the Longteng team regained strength a few minutes before the end of the first half.

In the forty-fourth minute of the first half, De Paul and Nie Jiang, who came to respond, plus Chavez formed a three-man attacking combination on the left side, and after attracting the defensive attention of as many as five players from Guangzhou Haoheng, Chavez, who retreated, distributed the ball to the middle, which is familiar with Diego and Costa's ball just now.

In the end, Qi Ming's long-range shot from outside the penalty area tested Liu Dianzuo, who hurriedly saved the ball off the bottom line. The Dragons won a corner in first-half stoppage time.

After De Paul sent out the corner kick, under the interference of Evergrande players, Lu Zhihui hurriedly chose to head back, and when it fell to the back point, Tao Wentao swept the shot, but the ball did not eat the right part, and the football hit the side netting.

Because of the angle, many people thought the ball had gone in.

"Tao Wentao shot, did the ball go in? Oh, hit the side-netting. Liu Jiayuan is also anxious for the Longteng team, and he also hopes to see a close game, "It's a pity, the first half is almost over, and the Longteng team has a chance, sports battles, and set-pieces, but unfortunately they didn't grasp it." ”

When Liu Dianzuo sent out the goalball, Fagani also blew the whistle at the end of the first half, and Guangzhou Evergrande rarely entered the second half with a two-goal lead in the game with Longteng.

In the past, the home team's lounge was basically full of laughter and laughter in this stadium, but today it was different, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Since the Longteng team successfully decided to take Jiangcheng Stadium as their home stadium, except for the 15th round of the first year of the Chinese Super League in 2014, on July 20, they lost 0:1 at home to Beijing Guoan, they have never lost here, as for the first half of the two goals behind such a thing, it is unheard of.

Longteng is already unbeaten in 36 games in the Chinese Super League at home, 17 games in the AFC Champions League, and 64 games unbeaten in all competitions, and now no one wants to accept the result of being two goals behind.

When the players had all changed their clothes, Zhang Sheng coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention.

'We played well in the first half. Zhang Sheng set the tone for the players' performances, "Some of the goals conceded were negligent in my tactical arrangement, and there was also a lot of chance. But I don't want you to be discouraged. ”

"Everyone heard it just now. Even though we were two goals down, the fans didn't give up and they still cheered us on. I can even feel that they are working harder than ever. Zhang Sheng raised his voice, "Can we let them down?"

"No!" Lu Zhihui, as the captain, responded immediately, "I have a lot of responsibility for the first goal conceded in the first half, and I will make up for it in the second half." ”

"I also had a problem, the second goal was lost, and I panicked when it was cleared. Dawn also stood up.

"I have ...... too"

Seeing that there were still players who wanted to stand up, Zhang Sheng pressed down with both hands, signaling everyone not to be excited.

"What's the situation? I've only seen people who grabbed credit, and I've never seen anyone who grabbed the blame. What's the matter, you want to be Benzema?" Zhang Sheng joked.

"Haha!"

The players laughed too, the previous gloom was swept away, and the dressing room was filled with cheerful air again.

After arousing everyone's emotions, Zhang Sheng began to make tactical arrangements.

"Xiong Jian, don't stay in the second half. "The first thing to solve is the problem on the right side," we have to try to play on the right side, if you can't get fit, take the initiative to inform me, and I will solve it with substitutions. ”

"Okay, Coach. Xiong Jian nodded hurriedly.

"Dawn. You're from a field ball game. Zhang Sheng asked.

To this question, Dawn was confused: "Yes." ”

"That's it. I don't believe you used to play wild ball without encountering a more messy situation than you do now. Zhang Sheng guided, "You have endured the kind of teammates who may kick into your own goal with one kick before, but now that there are so many excellent teammates, you have to be more confident, and at the same time, you must believe in your teammates more." ”

Dawn nodded hurriedly.

"Finally! Chavez and Nie Jiang. Zhang Sheng accentuated his tone, "I hope that your shots can improve the accuracy in the second half, and the task of scoring goals for the team is on you." Do you have faith?"

"Yes. Zhang Sheng's question was in Spanish, and Nie Jiang, who had been studying with the club's Spanish teacher, also gave an answer.

'In the second half we had to get the game back. Do you have confidence?" asked Zhang Sheng loudly to all the players.

"Confidence!" the players expressed their attitude with a roar.

"It's time to play. As the captain, Lu Zhihui walked to the center of the locker room, "Come, everyone come and cheer." ”

All the Dragons players, including the substitutes, gathered around and folded their hands together: "Come on, come on, come on!"

After the start of the second half of the game, the Longteng team attacked very fiercely, but the play was very stable, the main attack was still two wings, and at the same time strengthened the left and right pulling, such a way of playing, in the face of the pressure of Guangzhou Evergrande's strong midfield, the players of the Longteng team paid more running.

"Xiong Jian and Ma Yongli, these are two important tactical nodes of the Longteng team. Now the Longteng team insists on running and pulling, which is a clear exchange with Evergrande. Shen Fangjian sometimes sees it very accurately, "Because Evergrande's even one side and Zheng Zhi in the middle have also paid a lot, it depends on whether the two sides can withstand it first." ”

"You still have to take into account your age and physical condition. Liu Jiayuan analyzed, "Zheng Zhi's condition and body have been maintained very well, but he is now over 36 years old, and Zou Zheng has just recovered from a major injury." Although Xiong Jian and Ma Yongli have heavier burdens, their youth is an advantage. ”

What Liu Jiayuan said is still very reasonable, in the cheers of the fanatical Longteng fans, the attack and involvement of the two wings of the Longteng team are becoming more and more threatening.

In the fifteenth minute of the second half, Zou Zheng finally couldn't keep up with Tao Wentao's rhythm and received a yellow card. Although Zou Zheng has persisted for a longer time than the last game, the gap in strength and the decline in his state have reached a critical point.

Scolari now has two choices, either not to return to the defense to reduce the pressure on Zou Zheng's defense, or to make a substitution, but if someone can be replaced, why do you need to go to Zou Zheng, the problem is that if Gao Lin returns to defense, Evergrande's frontcourt offensive combination is missing, and the defense of the Longteng team is much easier.

Against a team like the Dragons, if you don't put enough pressure on the backline, you'll understand what it means to give him three points, and he'll open a dye shop for you.

The only way now is for Zou Zheng to hold on and let Zheng Zhi work harder.

What makes Scolari a little relieved is that shortly after Zou Zheng took the card, Xiong Jian also ate the card, that is to say, in the right side of the link, one of the two sides gave the other a knife and pulled it even.

When the game came to the twenty-three minutes of the second half, the persistence of the Longteng team finally reaped the results.

When Zheng Zhi was forced to grab in the middle of the midfield, he was not decisive enough to shoot the ball and was squeezed down by Qi Ming.

This kind of breaking the ball in the backcourt is very threatening, and Evergrande's two wings are following the overall formation, and the space behind the back, which was rarely leaked before, appears.

Qi Ming, who got the ball, chose to give the ball to the right side, because at this time Zou Zheng didn't even have a chance to foul Tao Wentao, and the former couldn't catch up with the latter at all.

Tao Wentao, who received Qi Ming's pass, saw that no one was guarding himself, so he cut directly diagonally inward, and waited until he pushed the ball to the front of the penalty area, and Paulinho hurriedly chased it back.

Tao Wentao used a cross knock at the moment of entering the penalty area to make the Mei side, who had come to defend with Paulinho, who was following him, useless, and Chavez, who came out of the penalty area, leaned his back against Feng Xiaoting and distributed the ball to De Paul on the left side.

Leaving Shu Jun behind, Paul sent the football to the middle of the penalty area, and Nie Jiang was completely empty at this time. Nie Jiang didn't miss such an opportunity, and he easily pushed Liu Dianzuo to a completely unpounceable angle.

The Dragons finally patiently waited for the opportunity and pulled a goal back.

"Qi Ming broke the ball, Tao Wentao cut inside, Chavez received the ball, transferred again, De Paul knocked on the middle, Nie Jiang's push!" Liu Jiayuan soared, "Beautiful! This series of cooperation, Guangzhou Evergrande has, Longteng team also has, the defense of both sides." No way, can't stop it. ”

"Zheng Zhi's mistake was too fatal. Several mistakes in this game came from veterans from both sides. Shen Fangjian refined the lost balls of both sides, "Punch the master to death, and the fist is afraid of being young." ”

"This goal from the Dragons came at a timely time. If you don't score again, as soon as the Evergrande formation is recovered, there will really be no way. Liu Jiayuan is also glad that Evergrande's tactics are open, and he will stick to it without taking the lead.

"After this goal, Nie Jiang's AFC Champions League goals also came to 6, look at his celebration, haha. Liu Jiayuan obviously likes Nie Jiang very much, and when he saw Nie Jiang take off his jersey again to celebrate, he laughed happily, "Don't be addicted, take off your jersey after scoring a goal, how many yellow cards should you eat later." ”

After the goal, the Longteng team took advantage of the high morale and attacked more fiercely, and Evergrande did not need Scolari to adjust, and the players themselves put away the formation and entered the defensive state.

At this time, Xiong Jian sat on the ground, stretched out his hand, and signaled that he was cramping, and Zhang Sheng hurriedly replaced it with Yan Xiaoyu.

"Yan Xiaoyu is on. This is to continue to strengthen the attack, what about the defense on the right side of the Longteng team?" Liu Jiayuan pointed out the characteristics of the two players who went on and off the court respectively in one sentence, and asked suspiciously.
