I don't know if it's because he didn't score much in the first two games, and his performance in training failed to impress Lippi, Xiao Zhi, who started in the first two games, was directly abandoned by Lippi this time and hit the bench. If it is true that Xiao Zhi is abandoned by Lao Li and Lu Zhuhu has no opinion, anyway, he doesn't even need Gao Lin, the problem is that this is Li Huitang, who was finally brought here!
It was even more surprising at centre-back.
Lippi values Yu Yang and thinks that he can take over Feng Xiaoting's position - this is no secret, in the national youth team that year, Yu Yang partnered with Zhang Linpeng, but later there were ups and downs in growth, except for the time when Brother Da Long was in charge of the coaching whip, he has not been able to gain a firm foothold in the national team. Now at least during the World Cup, Yu Yang is Zhang Linpeng's main partner considered by Uncle Li, not to mention that as he himself said, the long pass between him and Lu Zhuhu is a comparative call.
Suspended for the game, the backup central defender should be Shi Ke, although his performance in SIPG can only be said to be decent. However, firstly, he played in the last World Cup and saw a big scene, and secondly, he also served as the starting central defender in the warm-up game before the World Cup - whether it is Lu Zhuhu or the media, it is so analyzed, but the old man Lippi has put another one!
This partner Zhang Linpeng is Liu Yiming! Liu Yiming, who is 95 years old, said that he is not particularly young, and his physical condition is indeed good, but he is frizzy in handling the ball, and there have been many low-level mistakes in the league.
The only explanation can only be that Shi Ke scored a nonsensical own goal in the warm-up match against Hungary before, which made the old man deliberately snub him.
In this way, the only 02 international player Du Wei found by Lu Zhuhu was also wasted! Whether it is the Chinese team changing a central defender in the game, or adding a central defender to play three central defenders in the middle of the game, it does not seem to be a good omen......
Lu Zhuhu can only sigh that he is still too weak in guessing the coach's intentions, if this kind of problem is left to Brother Da Long, he must guess accurately. At this point, Lu Zhuhu had no choice but to talk to Dewey and Li Huitang, who were ready to do a big job, and after the starting list came out, they could only say "ask for more blessings".
Let's wait for a chance on the bench!
Lu Zhuhu originally thought that he was also "out of danger" and wanted to sit on the bench on the sidelines, but the coaching staff felt that it was too close to the court, and if he was in a hurry during the game, it would not be good for his "heartbreak", so he persuaded him to go to the stands to watch. This can only make the two "Li Du" adapt to their own situation.
At 22 o'clock on June 26, Beijing time, the third round of the Russian World Cup Group C between the Chinese team and Peru was played at the Fisht Olympic Stadium in Sochi, and at the same time, the French team faced Denmark at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow.
Before the game, the media received the starting list of the Chinese team and the Peruvian team, and the Peruvian team lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation:
Goalkeeper: No. 1 Pedro Galese
Defenders: No. 15 Christian Ramos, No. 4 Anderson Santamaria, No. 6 Miguel Trauco, No. 17 Luis Advincula
Midfielders: 18 Andre Carrillo, 8 Cristian Cueva, 20 Addison Flores, 13 Renato Tapia, 19 Joshmar Judton
Striker: No. 9 Paolo Guerrero
The Chinese team played a slightly strange 4-4-1-1 formation:
Goalkeeper: No. 12 Yan Junlin
Defenders: No. 20 Zhang Chengdong, No. 2 Liu Yiming, No. 5 Zhang Linpeng, No. 21 Yu Hai
Midfielder: No. 8 Zheng Zhi, No. 15 Wu Xian, No. 14 Zhao Xuri, No. 12 Park Cheng
Forwards: No. 18 Qin Long, No. 7 Wu Base
The lineup has changed a lot compared to the first two games, I don't know what Lippi is based on, and it even makes people feel a little back to Perrin National Team - but the old man has always been willful, the last time he played Wales 6 goals fiasco, the second game carried out a large number of personnel rotation, but the result became a 1-4 fiasco.
Although Chinese fans hope that the team can fight their way out of the encirclement and rebuild the glory of 14 years, historical experience tells us that in this kind of competition, the Chinese football team often has unlimited potential to play a big score and lose miserably.
There was no one on the field who could decide which way to go.
As the old saying goes, even in faraway Sochi, the Chinese fans still had the upper hand in numbers – the opponent was the South American fans who have always been crazy to drag their families to watch the game, and although they have been eliminated early, their fans are still enthusiastic, and there are a large number of Peruvian fans who are in tears before the game when the national anthem is played.
In addition to being apprehensive about the tournament itself, Chinese fans also took out their mobile phones to keep an eye on another match.
The opening whistle sounded, and the battle of life and death arrived.
Although the Chinese team did not continue the previous formation of 3 forwards, it was still a situation of grabbing the start and scoring goals, and the players showed enough enthusiasm.
In the 5th minute, Wu Xian broke through on the right side, and the cross was blocked by the Peruvian team Santa Maria, and Pu Cheng followed up with a powerful shot that went high above the crossbar.
Less than two minutes after this attack, the Chinese team continued to pass and cut in the front court, Zhang Chengdong made a long diagonal pass on the left, and Qin Long inserted a horizontal cross near the bottom line to find Wu Base, but the ball was blocked by the defender and was confiscated by Galesse.
Unlike the previous two games, Peru chose the strategy of defending and counterattacking at the beginning, with the double midfielders and wingers standing relatively backward, and the audience also clearly felt that Peru's mentality was relaxed enough, and it was not slow to face the Chinese team that was eager to score. This made the Chinese fans feel a little flustered from the beginning, and the one who went home early in the group was a tough nut to crack.
Before the World Cup, Peru twice beat the European teams Iceland and Scotland, who are also in the same body, and at that time they adopted a completely different style of pressing, putting a steady number of people in the front, and using aggressive counter-attacks and excellent running to suppress the opponent in the 30-meter area for a stormy attack. This style of play, when Peru played against Denmark and even France, was concocted according to the law, but it did not seem to have worked. Against China, the Peruvian team started with a posture that seemed to have given up the previous set, and did not rush to suppress the opponent, focusing on stabilizing the defense.
Even Peruvian fans seem to know that the team has a backhand, and the start is relatively quiet.
On the contrary, more than 10 minutes after the start of the game, the fans of the Chinese team burst into huge cheers in the stands, and those who didn't understand thought that the Chinese team had started to attack-
In fact, it was Lu who was injured in the last game and showed up in the first row of the media stands on the sidelines – a special choice for players who weren't on the squad for the two games, coaches and staff who couldn't sit on the bench.
Lu Zhuhu did not wear the Armani suit, but the brown and red training jacket of the Chinese team, with the player's admission card hanging - this outfit can at least give fans some hope, Lu is not completely reimbursed, there is still hope of appearing in the World Cup.
Lu Zhuhu spent a lot of time below, so he only appeared at this time.
In the locker room, he lectured his teammates as the captain, and at the same time blew the wind in his ears from assistant coach Madaloni, thinking that Xiao Zhi has been in good shape these days, better than the first two games, even if he is limited by the manager's tactical considerations, he can still be considered when he can't open the situation.
The reason why he is a teaching assistant, not Lippi, is because Lu Zhuhu now also knows how disobedient the old man is.
Another interesting point of the Chinese team in this game is which player will replace Lu Zhuhu's position.
Now it seems that Lippi's answer is Qin Long-
A player who played in the Major League League, he used to be the all-time top scorer for Phoenix Nirvana, and since he left the team to return to the Chinese Super League, the team bought "Warcraft" Howard, ah no, Warcraft Drogba to fill his gap.
