Chapter 632: Rich and Powerful 45
In the 38th minute of the first half, Du Yu tried to break through in the middle, but was stealed by the opponent's midfielder Inomov, and immediately instigated a sharp counterattack, passing the ball to the striker Bakaev, who had been cruising in the second half of the Chinese team.

Xu Long, the backfield of the Huaguo team, was defeated when he competed with him for the ball, and was successfully thrown off by the opponent with the ball and went straight into the Huaguo team's penalty area. At this time, the overall front of the Huaguo team was relatively forward, and in addition to goalkeeper Song Zhenyu in the penalty area, only Cao Yan was left as a defender. When Cao Yan rushed out of the penalty area for the first time and tried to stop Bakaev, the latter suddenly kicked the goal. The angle of the shot was very wide and the ball went straight to the lowest fillet of the right post. Although Song Zhenyu judged the right position at the first time and made a timely save, his outstretched hands still failed to touch the ball. The ball slammed into the lowest fillet with a bang and bounced into the goal.
1:0, the Ukrainian team finally scored a goal after nearly 40 minutes of play at home. This goal undoubtedly boosted the morale of Ukraine very much. Bakaev, who scored the goal, looked even more excited, and almost took off his shirt completely to celebrate, but fortunately he didn't do it in the end, otherwise a yellow card would be indispensable. Still, he dragged his shirt halfway through, covered his head with the hem of his shirt, and ran across the pitch with his hands outstretched until he was stopped and hugged by his teammates.
"This goal is very revealing, when the Chinese team strengthened the attack, it ignored its own defense, and was caught by the opponent / \ the loophole was fatal. As soon as Liu Jianhong opened his mouth, others had no intention of objecting. Even Elder Wang couldn't help but nod his head.
Director Zhang said directly: "Such mistakes were common in our team in the past. It's when attacking, it's easy to be successfully countered by the opponent's defense. Such a result shows that our national football team has serious problems in defense, which is as serious as the problem of attack. Before Chen Feng joined our national football team, this was a big problem for our national football team. In a nutshell, it can't be attacked, and at the same time, it can't be defended. ”
Fang Yi said: "This mistake is our carelessness, first of all, Du Yu's breakthrough does not seem to have many rules, and when defending, both Xu Long and Cao Yan are also a little out of order, and they did not succeed in stopping the opponent." ”
Although Wang Lao did not object to what they said, he changed the topic without saying it: "We were careless about the goal we conceded, but I think the Chinese team should chase this ball back." ”
As if to verify Wang Lao's words, after the restart, the Huaguo team did not retreat because of the goal conceded, but strengthened the attack. After several efforts, in the 43rd minute, the Huaguo team finally managed to pass the ball into the opponent's penalty area. Striker Han Xiaopeng grabbed ahead of the opposing defenders, jumped high, fought for the landing point, shook his head hard, and the ball went straight towards the opponent's goal.
It's just a pity that the ball was too right, and it was firmly held in the hands of the opponent's goalkeeper Bugaro and held in his arms.
"It's a pity, this ball is too right, if it is only a little crooked, it may be. Liu Jianhong said with regret.
Director Zhang also said with some regret: "This opportunity is really very rare, and it is the best opportunity for the Huaguo team so far in the game, but it is a pity that I missed it like this." It seems that the Huaguo team is going to end with a goal down in the first half. ”
It is true that after this opportunity was missed, the ball fell into the hands of the Ukrainian national team, and it did not change until the end of the first half.
"In the first half, both teams were defending and attacking, and the Huaguo team played well overall. Statistically, the possession rate of the first half was 67.5%, with 7 shots on goal, 4 of which on target and 1 valid goal. Our Chinese team had a total of 3 shots on goal with 2 of them on target. In terms of data, the Ukrainian team has a certain advantage in the first half, but in comparison, the Chinese team is not weak, especially the last attack is very resolute, which is still relatively rare in previous international competitions and is worth encouraging. ”
"It may be because of Chen Feng's joining that we have brought a spirit of self-confidence to our national football team. After all, our national football team won the championship in this Olympic Games, and we are a veritable Olympic champion team, and we have honors. In this national football lineup, I think most of the players are also former players of the national Olympic team, and they all have a sense of honor. Therefore, in the first half, they played with more atmosphere and a kind of sharpness and determination than in the previous games. It doesn't feel like it's sometimes intimidated like it used to be. I think that's a very welcome change and it's very important. ”
Fang Yi also said: "Although we fell behind by one goal in the first half, it was not ugly on the field. Spirit-wise, we didn't have a bit of stage fright when we played away, on the other hand, the opposing team, on our own pitch, was pressed by us in the second half of the first half. ”
Wang Lao also said slowly: "The national football team has actually been improving over the years, but this kind of progress was not very obvious in the past, until Chen Feng joined, and under his active drive, this progress became more obvious." Just like I saw in the first half this time, although Chen Feng, our absolute trump card, did not play, but our Huaguo team still played relatively well, with merit and defense, although it was unexpectedly a goal behind, but I think we should be able to catch it back in the second half. ”
……
In the first half, as several people said on live TV, the Chinese team played not very ugly. If you look at the games when Chen Feng didn't join before, you can see a huge / big improvement. As Director Zhang said, mainly in terms of mentality, there has been a great change in spirit, and there is no longer the feeling of being afraid in international competitions, and it has become atmospheric and confident. That's the main thing.
Chen Feng is personally satisfied with the first half of the game, and generally speaking. He thought he might be scored twice, but he didn't score a goal until the end of the first half, and even his team-mates almost tied the score before half-time. This point still surprised Chen Feng a little.
Previously, his opinion of the national football team was actually similar to that of many angry domestic fans, who felt that the national football team was muddy and could not support the wall. But judging from this game, I suddenly felt that as long as the national football team takes the lead, everyone actively pays attention to and gives encouragement and support, no one wants to be muddy all their lives, and they also want to get better. Thinking about it carefully, the reason why Chen Feng wanted to join the national football team at the beginning was that he subconsciously had the idea of changing the status quo of the national football team. And he established a football school to cultivate youth football talents, and he wanted to fundamentally change the ecology of the national football team and change the blood of the national football team from the roots.
In the locker room, Forado and Yang Tiesheng generally affirmed the performance of the players in the first half, and of course caused the three players who conceded to give some criticism. However, it is not too harsh. In the final analysis, the strength of the opponent's striker Bakaev is there, and it is indeed difficult for them to defend him one-on-one.
After the coach finished speaking, team leader Wei Hui also said a few words to boost morale, and then he specially asked Chen Feng to say a few words. Chen Feng did not pretend to be modest, and said: "The overall performance of everyone in the first half is really good, but when pulling up to attack, the defense must also be stable to avoid being attacked by the opponent again." And the opponent's striker Bakaev is really good, so in the second half, I think we should focus on the defense, and it is better to let the big head stare at him. Otherwise, I think we need to play our height advantage and header advantage, play more long passes, pass more into the opponent's penalty area, and let a few players who are taller and have better headers stand in the box and attack with headers. I think if that's the case, maybe there will be a catch. ”
Yang Tiesheng couldn't help but nod in agreement after hearing this: "I also think that in the second half, we should play more long passes and rush and attack with more headers." In terms of height, we still have some advantages over each other. At the back, of course, we can't afford to be careless. Learn the lesson of the goal conceded in the first half. In terms of specific tactics, we can advance steadily and steadily, not be impatient or in a hurry, and work slowly and meticulously to pursue the success rate. We also have to be stable in terms of mentality. Even if we are one goal behind now, as long as the success rate goes up, we can recover the score or even surpass it. ”
After the team interpreter repeated Chen Feng's words to Forado, head coach Forado also nodded and said, "I also think what Long said is very reasonable." That's how the tactical arrangements for the second half will be, and if so, Yang will arrange the arrangements. ”
Forado, the head coach, is still relatively self-aware, knowing that his own head coach was almost equal to picking it up before, and his prestige in the team or off the field is completely incomparable to Chen Feng. Even, he had heard rumors before that he wanted Yang Tiesheng to replace him, and even directly let Chen Feng, a talented player, directly replace him. Therefore, he is very self-aware now, and usually only puts forward a general plan and tactics in the team, and then asks several Huaguo coaches led by Yang Tiesheng to improve and supplement, and come up with a final plan.
This time, since Chen Feng proposed such a tactic, Yang Tiesheng also agreed, of course, he had no possibility of opposition. The reason why he served as the head coach of the Huaguo team was mainly for money at the beginning, and then of course, it was also to fight for a little honor for himself. I want fame and fortune. Previously, the Chinese Olympic team miraculously won the championship, and he had already successfully gained fame and fortune. If the Chinese men's football team successfully qualifies for the World Cup this time, of course, it will be able to gain fame and fortune again. Therefore, he is very keen to continue as the head coach of the Chinese men's football team. If it is even possible, he also wants to take the Chinese team to South Africa for the World Cup in two years. Of course, he knew that this was very unlikely. But it is also necessary to do a little work in advance and build a good relationship with Chen Feng and Coach Huaguo.
Of course, everyone in the team can see the attitude and thoughts of Forado as the head coach, but no one will say anything about him. After all, their current team has everything they have now with Chen Feng, and if there is no Chen Feng, then their team can really be said to be a bad team in the world. They can't admit this themselves.
So, now everything Chen Feng said is right. They have to listen carefully from top to bottom, including the manager. This point, in fact, has been rumored from the Football Association. No one would be stupid enough to contradict Chen Feng.
In this way, because of Chen Feng's speech, Yang Tiesheng immediately seized the time to make specific arrangements and arrangements.
At the beginning of the second half, the Huaguo team really began to arrange the troops according to what Chen Feng said, playing steadily and steadily, without impatience or slowness. It gives a whole new feeling. made the Ukrainian national team very uncomfortable, and at the same time, it also made many viewers wonder a little.
"The Huaguo team seems to have changed its tactics, and after the opening, it did not attack and hit hard, and it seemed very stable. Several tentative attacks of the Ukrainian team were successfully defused by the Chinese team, and the ball also fell into the hands of the Chinese team. Gao Junming passed, Zhou Haibing received the ball, got rid of, beautiful, passed! Lin Hao's header in the penalty area, shot! It's a pity! Didn't score! This goal is still too positive, and the opponent's goalkeeper Bougalo is also very stable, and he got the ball firmly in his hand again. ”
"Although the goal was not scored, the efficiency was quite high. From the launch of the attack to the final shot, there was not a single pause, and it was very fluid. It looks very pleasing to the eye. This is something that has rarely been seen in the past, and it deserves to be affirmed by all of us. ”
"Yes, this kind of offensive method is still relatively rare for the Chinese team in previous international competitions. It's very smooth. ”
"The ball was very well passed, and the header at the end was actually beautiful, but the opposing goalkeeper was obviously very sophisticated, and he was very good at positioning and sealing the ball. ”
……
Because the Ukrainian team was a little unaccustomed to the Chinese team's slow and steady way, they failed to push the ball into the penalty area after several attempts to attack, and the opponent's two forwards were basically frozen by the Chinese team. This made the Ukrainian team play quite awkward and uncomfortable.
Of course, the head coach of Ukraine also found out about this situation, walking around a little anxiously on the sidelines, and after the Chinese team almost succeeded in passing the ball into the Ukrainian penalty area again, the head coach of Ukraine finally couldn't help but ask for a substitution. Bakaev, who was completely frozen by Li Weifeng, was replaced, and another striker was dispatched.
Obviously, Coach Wu Guo is not satisfied with the current score of 1:0.
