Chapter 173: Peak Duel (1)

After all, the organizers and sponsors are experienced, and a high school soccer league finals are almost exactly like the scenes of the professional cup finals, but with a few less performances.

The ambition of the sponsor can also be seen from here, the organizer is still the same organizer, but after switching to Nike as a sponsor, the pattern of the entire high school league immediately changed dramatically.

This kind of specification, not to mention an intercollegiate league like a high school league, not even an amateur league or a regional cup competition.

After the Dagang team and the Ben Cheng team completed a series of procedural steps, the game was finally about to begin. The captains of the two teams, Song Yingjie and Ning Hongsheng, stepped forward and came to the referee.

The referee took out a coin from his pocket, and after signaling to Song Yingjie and Ning Hongsheng, the two began to guess.

After tossing the coin, Song Yingjie won, the Dagang team won the right to pick the edge, and the Bincheng team kicked off first.

After Song Yingjie picked the side, the players of the two teams walked to their respective halves to set up their positions, and the players of the Bencheng team were ready to kick off in the middle circle, and the referee had already put the whistle in his mouth.

In this game, the Dagang team still used 4-2-3-1 and did not change the formation, which is also the strongest formation of the Dagang team.

With this formation, the Dagang team has passed all the way to the stage of the finals as the first member of the league, and is already the biggest dark horse in the high school league.

The starting goalkeeper Ding Yanyi, as long as it is not a special situation or an opponent, Ding Yanyi is the first choice for the goalkeeper position of the Dagang team. The goalkeeper position is too sensitive, and under normal circumstances, unless the main goalkeeper makes a big mistake, the position is very solid.

Especially in intercollegiate leagues such as high school leagues, many teams have only a number of second goalkeepers, and they don't even have an appearance record.

Even if the substitute goalkeeper occasionally had some sporadic appearances, it was garbage time that had nothing to do with the outcome of the game.

The Dagang team is better in this regard, and the substitute goalkeeper Xiong Liang has also started and handed over a good answer.

Not to mention those games that have little impact or substitutes to stay in shape, even in the final of the provincial qualifiers, in the face of a life-and-death battle like the Jinling team, Xiong Liang also suppressed Ding Yanyi to become the team's starting goalkeeper.

In front of the goalkeeper are the four defenders, and the vice-captains Lin Hengfeng and Li Bing, one is tall and the other is dexterous, and they have the heavy responsibility of guarding the penalty area.

In fact, in Chen Xiaojian's opinion, Lin Hengfeng is a pity, if it weren't for Song Yingjie, Lin Hengfeng would definitely be the first choice for captain. Or it can be said that with Lin Hengfeng's performance, he can be the captain of many intercollegiate teams.

The fullbacks on both sides of the penalty area are Li Bing and Bian Yuanya, and the two fullbacks are players with a relatively balanced attack and defense, and they have a good ability to insert assists.

Although neither man has scored a single goal so far, their contribution to the team in attack is evident to all.

In front of the back four are the double back Liu Hui and Song Yingjie, and the back of the two is the barrier in front of the back line, a wall erected in front of the penalty area, especially Liu Hui.

Liu Hui, who specializes in defense, doesn't want to say that he has scored goals, and he has very few chances to even cross the half, but he is such a player who almost disappeared from the offensive end of the Dagang team, but he used his silent running to grind most of the opponent's offense.

Song Yingjie is the captain of the Dagang team, as the midfield controller and offensive and defensive metronome of the Dagang team, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first contributor to the Dagang team's final.

In Chen Xiaojian's opinion, Song Yingjie still has a lot of potential to tap, even with his current strength, let alone playing in the high school league, even in many amateur league teams, Song Yingjie can also stand firm.

Facing Song Yingjie, Chen Xiaojian always has some special ideas in his heart, but he doesn't know if such an idea is really feasible.

The double back forward is not a central midfielder, but a 3 composed of Shen Si, Shi Xiaoyu, and Li Yanfeng.

Shen Si and Shi Xiaoyu, two wingers, have speed and skill, whether it is a bottom cross or an inside cut to create a crisis, they are all good hands.

As wingers, the number of goals scored by the two people is not very high, but the two people have an irreplaceable role in Chen Xiaojian's tactical system, and the speed of the team's offensive advancement is largely dependent on the two wingers.

Li Yanfeng, as a forward midfielder, may not have the imagination of those geniuses, but Chen Xiaojian's requirements for the offensive imagination of the forward players are not very high.

Li Yanfeng's excellent tactical execution ability and ability to make the last pass are what Chen Xiaojian likes. Many players who play the number 10 position think that they are artists, and it is even more common among students, but this is not the case with Li Yanfeng.

As the main forward of the Dagang team, Li Yanfeng not only plays the role of combing the offense, but also needs to do a lot of dirty work many times. Because the center forward is more nailed to the opponent's penalty area to suppress the opponent's central defender, the first line of defense of the Dagang team is actually Li Yanfeng.

At the forefront is the main center of the Dagang team, Gong Chang. As the main striker of the Dagang team, Gong Chang is the first scorer of the Dagang team, and a total of thirteen goals are also the basic guarantee for the team to win and advance.

Thirteen goals became Dagang's top scorer, six more than the second scorer Song Yingjie's seven.

You must know that the Dagang team is based on defensive counterattacks, which means that the offensive opportunities and the number of goals scored by the Dagang team will be relatively low. The third-scorer scored just four goals.

In other words, Gong Chang is the only player in the Dagang team to attack in double figures, and at the same time score more goals than the second and third scorers in the team combined.

Gong Chang's strong performance as a prominent arrow is also one of the confidence of Chen Xiaojian who dares not to change the formation and the Bincheng team.

The opposite team continued their previous tactical system, 4-3-3 formation. Let the Bincheng team still have a sense of pleasure in chopping melons and vegetables even in the North District finals.

Chen Xiaojian: They have not encountered teams that have used a 4-3-3 formation in their previous games, but there is no team like Bencheng.

The starting goalkeeper Zhang Chengzhi, the goalkeeper of the Binhu team, like most teams, almost played all the way to the end. The substitute goalkeeper only had a few sporadic substitute appearances to soak up the atmosphere.

However, unlike many other teams, the reason why the goalkeepers of the Bincheng team did not take turns to rest was because Zhang Chengzhi really had the ability that many goalkeepers did not have.

It can be said that it is precisely because of the fit of Zhang Chengzhi's ability that the Bincheng team played an unconventional 4-3-3 formation. That is, Zhang Chengzhi has a very good ability to hit the ball.

The reason why Zhang Chengzhi has this ability has a lot to do with his playing experience. Zhang Chengzhi has been playing football since elementary school, and he played in the midfield position in primary school.

When he was promoted to junior high school, it was difficult to compete for positions with those seniors, and in order to be able to play football, Zhang Chengzhi had to retreat and play a defender position that few people were willing to play.

After being promoted to high school, Zhang Chengzhi's position retreated again, and this time he couldn't even play as a defender and changed to a goalkeeper.

And Zhang Chengzhi's performance, after changing to a goalkeeper, has made a qualitative leap. The arrival of Zhang Chengzhi can be called the last piece of the puzzle that has completed the tactical system of the Bincheng team.
