Chapter 50 World Cup China VS Spain I
The match against Spain was even tougher than one might think. (Thinker.siluke.us)
In that match with Portugal, the two teams played more on the wings.
The Chinese split the ball from the middle to both sides of their back line, with the midfielder supporting the wing, and the back wing contributing a high-quality cross when rushing to the penalty area before taking the ball, or a co-pass from both sides.
But this time, it will be more difficult for the Chinese team to thoroughly implement the tactics they are good at than it was against the Portuguese team.
Because of the Spanish team's strong control of the midfield, it will become more difficult for the Chinese team to either want the midfield to support the side or to rush directly past the opponent's midfield.
It's a young Spanish team, very different from the Spanish team at the World Cup four years ago, or even at the European Championship two years ago.
It is conceivable that if the Spanish golden boy Javier, Milan Pique with strong breakthrough ability, and Enzo Guti with a straight kick stunt, these three extremely good young players can continue to grow, what kind of combat power will be brought to the once prosperous and declining Spanish team.
"Look at this ball! After Yerti took the ball, he gave it to Shen Tianhai! Shen Tianhai handed the ball to Chilie again! Belch! Truncated!! The Spanish team's midfield is indeed their winning weapon, and now the Chinese team's front and back fields cannot pass smoothly, if it continues like this, the Chinese team will fall into a more passive situation!! ”
Seeing that the Chinese team's transmission on the field was cut off many times in the middle of the field, the Chinese commentator Rong Naida was very anxious, and the commentator He Sheng, who was speaking from time to time, also pointed out a key problem that caused the situation on the field at this time.
"It seems that the Spanish team has attached great importance to the Chinese team after the Portuguese team was forced to draw, and they have developed very effective tactics for the Chinese team. Their players are staring at the core of the Chinese team's midfield! In the Chinese team's 4-2-3-1 formation, there are three players behind Zhengyin center forward Zhang Shaolin and in front of the two midfielders. But among these three players, Chi Lie and Lei Yi are all very pure wingers! In other words, among the three articulation players between the center forward and the midfield, only Wei Lin is a thorough midfielder, and his ability to connect between the front and back courts, as well as the tandem ability of the midfield, will be very important for the Chinese team! If Wei Lin is stared to death! Then the Chinese team's ball line will be greatly restricted!! ”
At the same time as He Sheng gave this explanation, the female commentator invited by CCTV flew on the computer keyboard with ten fingers, and gave a model within a minute, and gave a translucent tactical map of the Chinese team on the TV screen.
Through the tactical diagram of guò, all the fans who are watching CCTV's five high-definition channels can clearly see what the female commentator said, the Chinese team's ball line.
When the No. 10 jersey representing Wei Lin is not shielded in gray, the two midfielders, Shen Tianhai and Xie Qianyi, can use Guò Wei Lin to complete the delivery to the two wings, which can be cross-type or direct pass-type. With Wei Lin among the four players, their line of play becomes extremely flexible. When the No. 10 shirt for Wei Lin turned grey, the Chinese team's access to the ball became extremely limited, and they could not even effectively coordinate between the two wings before reaching the penalty area.
It can be said that the middle of the Chinese team has been cut off by the Spanish team.
The dynamic diagram given by He Sheng in a very short period of time made it easy for many fans who were sitting in front of the TV to understand the tactics that the Spanish team is now implementing, and they were immediately anxious.
At this time, the situation on the field is obviously more urgent than many people think.
Although Wei Lin is a midfielder in the Premier League, Sunderland FC can basically only be regarded as a team in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, and as a midfielder, he is not stronger than any of the four midfielders in the Spanish team, let alone ...... At this time, it was not such a simple player who restricted his activities on the field.
Just as none of the four midfielders in Spain's 3-4-3 formation is a purely defensive midfielder, the task of staring at Wei Lin is not just handed over to one person, and the four midfielders will fill each other in time according to the coach's on-the-spot command, which will make Wei Lin simply try to concentrate and try to ask a specific opponent player.
Spain's decisive change of coach after losing their seeding in the World Cup qualifiers has allowed the team to have such a manager with such a terrible on-the-spot command ability in this World Cup......
In the nineteenth minute, the Spanish team blasted open the door of the Chinese team and successfully rewrote the score before the halfway point of the first half! It was Ukres, one of Spain's forward tridents, who completed the shot!!
When Spain's No. 9, Milan Pique, broke through the Chinese team's backline with the ball, the Chinese team spent too much defensive force in order to concentrate on the Spanish center forward who is a strong threat in front of goal. It is precisely because of this that the Spanish team's forward trident successfully created goals with multiple points near the Chinese team's penalty area.
It's not terrible to be blasted out of the goal by the opponent first on the pitch.
The terrible thing is that you feel that the opponent is obviously stronger than you in the confrontation with the opponent, and you really want to do something, almost desired, but you can only see the opponent's strength again and again because of this.
The Spanish team in this game is very strong, you can say that this is because the Spanish coach's on-the-spot command is too surprising, and you can also say that this team has overcome the current Chinese team from the style of play to the type.
But no matter what the reason, it cannot be refuted that the Chinese team is at a comprehensive disadvantage at the moment under the oppressive style of play of the Spanish team.
Perhaps, in the last game against Honduras, they were really careless, and they did not adjust themselves to the best form, just like the same eleven players in the Istanbul night, Liverpool in the Premier League can have completely different performances in the second half.
But perhaps it is precisely because they know how their carelessness and laxity in the last group game have affected them that they will not let go of any possibility at all when the shape is clearly beneficial to themselves, allowing the Chinese team to play a counterattack opportunity to form.
In the face of the menacing Spanish team, the Chinese team coach Andric changed the formation, changing the formation on the field from 4-2-3-1 to 4-1-4-1, he put the two midfielders on the field in tandem and the ability to grasp the rhythm of the field is better Cheng Chuan, in the case of the Spanish team has a lead of one point, resolutely chose to take a dangerous move to transfer the Chinese team's defensive strength to the midfield to help Wei Lin. In the hope of being able to change the dangerous situation that the middle of the Chinese team on the field was completely cut off.
The situation seems to have improved somewhat,
But that's not enough......
Inadequate!!
'Nima can help support the midfielders now, but Leiy ...... there'
As the situation on the field changed, the assistant coach of the Chinese side said this.
Obviously, although they are both wingers, the types of Chirenyima and Lei Yi are still different, and he is not so classical, or ...... He's not that far ahead of his time.
"Wait, now we need to wait for an opportunity."
Thunder is not a player who is good at running off the ball to support his teammates. Although he has tried to make some changes in the Brazilian league, in the back of his soul he still only runs in two situations.
When attacking with the ball, when you go to receive a pass from a teammate.
He has a keen sense of smell in front of goal, and he seems to have been born with a knack for how to shake off the opponent's mark. But when it comes to the big picture on the pitch, he still seems to be blank.
On the football field in the Estadio Azteca in Mexico, the space belonging to Spain is constantly being expanded by them, and the space belonging to the Chinese team is ...... It is also getting smaller and smaller because of the pressing style of play of the Spanish team.
It was a completely different feeling from the previous game against Portugal.
If you want Lei Yi to talk about the difference between the two, he thinks the Portuguese team is very good, and the game against the Spanish team is very disliked by him.
He knew he had strength all over him, but he was so powerful that he was restrained, bound by the team in the light blue jersey, and he felt like he couldn't show his legs and feet.
It was another siege initiated by the Spanish team for the Chinese team's penalty area.
Unlike Portugal's game, where every pass was dedicated to shooting at the Chinese goal or completing an assist, Spain's siege of the Chinese penalty area was more like a cat teasing a mouse. Of course, they are just playing this style, and they are not trying to tease their opponents, but the five-foot pass, three forwards and two backwards will really make the defender angry.
This seems to have become a large-scale game of ball grab, but the rules of the game are much more complicated than the game of ball grabbing that can give Lei Yi a headache on weekdays, and the number of participants is also much larger.
The wheezing sound gradually became heavier, but it was not because of the huge consumption of the body.
“leiy! Keep calm!! Find a way to fight back!! ”
Shen Tianhai, who was not far from Lei Yi's side, saw that Lei Yi's state was not right, and hurriedly reminded him.
Andrik, the head coach of the Chinese team, still couldn't guess what he was thinking from his facial expressions, holding a small paper book and a pen in his hand, and recording something quickly. Then, he made a decision.
