Chapter 463: Unexpected right wingback

Although the Chinese team entered a state of closed training after the match with the Indonesian team. But even so, Lopez Carlo, who led Saudi Arabia to victory over China in the Asian Cup qualifiers in February, was able to use the data collected in previous games to basically predict the starting lineup of the Chinese team and the general tactical strategy that will be adopted in the game.

However, just two hours before the start of the game, after the Chinese team took the lead in announcing the starting list for this game, Saudi Arabia coach López Kahlo couldn't help frowning.

Although most of the starters of the Chinese team in this game were expected by López Carlo, four of them did not appear in the starting list against Indonesia. Especially Yang Xu and Zhang Xi, they didn't get even a minute of playing time at all in the game 4 days ago.

Not only that, but the starting list of the Chinese team for this game also gave López Carlo a very weird feeling.

Judging from past experience, among the 11 players who started the Chinese team, only 3 defenders were players. Among them, Feng Xiaoting and Li Xueming's position is central defender, and although Zheng Xiaozheng, who did not start in the last game, is also the same as Li Xueming, he can play both the middle and left wing, but his best position is still left fullback.

In addition to the back line, the midfield configuration of the Chinese team also makes López Carlo a little difficult to understand.

As we all know, Feng Quan's most accustomed position is the left winger, but in the starting lineup of the Chinese team, Yu Hanchao, who is also good at playing as a left winger, appeared.

Although Yu Hanchao can play both wing positions at the same time, there is another Sun Ke in the Chinese team's starting list who can play both wings at the same time.

Sending three wingers at the same time in one game really made López Carlo unable to understand the intentions of the Chinese coach.

"Could it be that Yu (Hanchao) or that Sun (Ke) of the Chinese team used to play as a full-back in their respective clubs, so they replaced Zhang (Lin Peng), who was suspended for yellow cards, as right wing-back." López Carlo guessed in his mind.

Moreover, since only three players in the Chinese team's starting list are full-fledged defenders, López Carlo feels more and more that his guess is "reliable".

Although the use of wingers with excellent offensive ability as fullbacks can strengthen the Chinese team's wide attacking ability to a certain extent, it will greatly weaken the team's wing defensive quality when defending.

Thinking of this, López Carlo's face couldn't help but show a hint of cunning.

"Although the head coach of the Chinese team looks calm, he didn't expect him to be able to make a 'gambler' choice."

…………

At 7:30 p.m. on November 19, with the whistle of Australian referee Peter Green, the final match between the Chinese team and the Saudi Arabian team began.

Although the game has only just begun, Saudi Arabia coach López Kahlo can't help but frown.

Just five minutes before the start of the game, when the starters of both teams stepped onto the pitch for a side-picking ceremony and then stepped into their respective positions, Lopez Carlo finally got the real answer about China's starting right wing-back.

However, when Lopez Caro saw that Feng Quan, the number one star of the Chinese team, actually appeared in the position of right wingback, his face suddenly showed an extremely complicated expression.

Although Lopez Carlo does not think that the temporary right wing-back can cause too many obstacles for his team in defence. But he could imagine that Asia's number one star would certainly put Saudi Arabia under extreme pressure in attack.

On the face of it, the distance between Feng Quan, who plays right wing-back, and the Saudi Arabian penalty area is significantly farther than when he was playing as a winger. However, the farther away from the opponent's penalty area, it also means that the offensive pressure that Feng Quan has to face will be reduced.

And Feng Quan's sharpest weapon is his lightning-like running speed. Once Saudi Arabia's defenders interfere with the wind before it gets up to speed, their defensive ability alone will not be able to stop the wind moving forward.

If Feng is a very pure winger, then the Saudi Arabian player may be able to focus his defensive energy on blocking his wide crosses.

But it's a pity that Feng Quan not only has a very good ability to attack on the wing, but also his ability to cut inside and attack the goal is not inferior to the long-established "king" price winger players such as Robben and Ronaldo.

In the case of Feng Quan as a right wingback, even if the Saudi Arabian players want to press him closely, there is no way to press the Chinese team's backfield to mark him. If this is the case, the left wing defense of the Saudi Arabian team will definitely become the main offensive target of the Chinese team.

Therefore, in addition to hoping that his team's left attack can easily break down Feng Quan's defense, Lopez Carlo can only pray that Feng Quan will have an unbalanced mentality or a rapid decline in physical strength due to the discomfort of the position he plays.

…………

Three days before the queue, when Fu Bo asked Feng Quan if he was willing to replace ** Peng as the right wingback in the game against Saudi Arabia, Feng Quan originally wanted to refuse.

In the habitual thinking of ordinary people, the closer to the opponent's penalty area, the greater the probability of scoring a goal. While full-backs have become more frequent in modern football, the likes of Robert Carlos and Lahm have often scored from distance by world-class full-backs such as Robert Carlos and Lahm. Either way, it will be much harder for full-backs to find the back of the net than for their more advanced midfielders.

Because of this, Feng Quan wanted to reject Fu Bo's proposal to play as a right wing-back.

However, just when Feng Quan just wanted to refuse, Fu Bo said again: "Daquan, I didn't want you to play fullback, but last night when Coach Ma Lin chatted with me again, he mentioned that when you first practiced when you were learning football in football school, you first practiced as a right fullback, and then because many wingers of the team were injured at the same time, you were temporarily replaced, is that so?" ”

"Well, I told Ma Gui about these things." After a pause, Feng Quan continued to speak: "However, that was seven or eight years ago, I haven't played right full-back for so many years, whether it is defensive ability or positional sense, I'm afraid I can be promoted to this position again." ”

'That's not a problem because the main reason I've put you at right wing-back is to play your attacking qualities. Also, I won't put any restrictions on you during the attack, and you will be left to your own devices. As for defense, you just need to stay in place as much as possible and not leave too much space for the opponent. ”

After a pause, Fu Bo said with a hint of cunning on his face: "And I believe that with your offensive ability, you will definitely be able to suppress the opponent's left side attack......" 2k reading web
