72 Tactical Practice (Supplement 2)
Timo Jankovsky's many tactical arrangements make sense, and Sunset admits it, but his condescending attitude makes Sunset reluctant to give in easily.
The two met to meet in the competition.
This game is the game of Jiangong's away challenge to the Hujiang Blue Devils, and it is here in a blink of an eye.
In this game, the head coach Zhen Xuexi arranged for Sunset to continue to start, and it was equipped with the strongest attacking lineup of Arshavin, Ivo, and Sunset, with high school striker Xiao Zhi in front, Gu Cao and Yin Hongbo behind him, and four defenders Yang Kuo, Zheng Renhuan, Gomez, Bi Jinhao, and goalkeeper Han Feng.
This is a 4231 kick and a strong emphasis on attack, hoping to resolve the battle as soon as possible.
The opposite Hujiang Blue Devils are not a weak team, the team has Demba Ba, Morero, Cahill, Papadopoulos many good players, 20 rounds, 8 wins, 5 draws, 29 points ranked 5th in the Chinese Super League.
Zhen Xuexi's meaning is that Ivo has just recovered from injury and can play for a long time, and Sunset's physical fitness may not be guaranteed, so he simply used the excellent offensive ability shown in training to sneak attack a Hujiang Blue Devil in the first half.
Timo Jankovski is a bit of a critic of this arrangement, arguing that a young player like Sunset should be left for the second half when the opponent's stamina is declining, rather than starting a game to expend his physical energy in a hand-to-hand battle with the opposition.
However, he still arranged the general movement and coordination of the left winger for Sunset to guide Sunset in this game.
Tactical design for one person alone is difficult because Jankovsky can't arrange for the rest of the team, and there is not much that one person can do.
But despite complaining, Jankovski made detailed arrangements for Sunset, such as the range of movement, response and positioning, and analysis of opponents' weaknesses and defensive holes.
At the beginning of the game, Sunset raised the tempo on the left side, constantly adjusting the line and distance between him and Arshavin and Xiao Zhi, and never stopped running.
The coach's chair was unhappy with Sunset's needless energy consumption, but soon stopped saying it publicly.
Because these seemingly mechanical movements make it easy for Arshavin, he doesn't need to observe to know where Sunset will appear in a similar situation. When to pass the ball to him, and when to count on Sunset's support and cooperation, these are all clear.
Originally, Arshavin likes to cooperate with Sunset, but now he understands more clearly, and naturally passes the ball over at every opportunity, and the two seem to have a more tacit understanding and fluency.
Jankovski's movement arrangement carries a lot of Eastern European football genes in the German style, Sunset has received similar training before, but it is a more dedicated center forward training, this time changed to a winger, after running for a while, after experiencing the common elements, he understands it more and runs more freely.
Sunset's high-intensity movement in the big circle hurt Bai Jiajun in the opposite position, and he couldn't follow him, and as soon as he let go of Arshavin's pass, it was more difficult for Sunset to start early and make it more difficult for him to defend. But following up is a huge burden on my body, and I really don't have the confidence that I can run blindly with Sunset for long.
It didn't take long for Bai Jiajun to know that he couldn't let go of Sunset, and it was in the 16th minute, Sunset retreated to respond, and Bai Jiajun relaxed a little and didn't follow so closely.
But Sunset turned around as soon as he received the ball, and when he rushed forward with the ball, Bai Jiajun hadn't started yet, and was left behind by Sunset, who had completed the acceleration, with an acceleration change.
After passing Bai Jiajun, Sunset immediately cut in, made a cross run with Arshavin on the penalty line, and at the same time stuffed the ball into Arshavin's footsteps.
Bai Jiajun followed and ran two steps later, only to find that he had been sent out by Sunset, and Arshavin had already stirred up the chickens and dogs in the penalty area.
Only then did he quickly turn around and chase after Arshavin in the penalty area.
After attracting enough attention from the defence, Arshavin pushed the ball back into the middle.
However, the ball was not handed to Xiao Zhi at the front of the middle, but pushed it backwards, where the sideways afterglow had already completed the turn.
Sunset had already observed the situation on the field before controlling the football, and Papadopoulos, who had just transferred from Europe, was the only one in the Hujiang Blue Devils team who had predicted the danger of this kind of European-style passing and running combination, and had already lost Xiao Zhi from the center-back position, somewhat blocking some of Sunset's shooting lanes.
So Sunset doesn't stop when he catches the ball, and he continues to toggle the ball to the road.
However, I didn't expect Ivo, who kept up in time, to be stimulated by this rare beautiful pass, and instead of shooting directly, he gently pushed the ball to the feet of Xiao Zhi in front of the goal.
Most of the defensive forces in the penalty area were attracted away by Arshavin, Papadopoulos came out to block the afterglow, and goalkeeper Geng Xiaofeng was also shaken to the ground by Ivo's fake shot, and Xiao Zhi in front of the goal only needed a light push, and there was no need to bother at all.
What really embarrassed Xiao Zhi was to run to the left, center and right to express his gratitude. Arshavin not only attracted most of the defense, but finally rushed to the left baseline to attract two defenders to ensure that Xiao Zhi was not offside. And the afterglow in the middle is a little fellow and a little brother, and he also helped him attract the most difficult central defender. Not to mention Ivo on the right, he directly assists himself...
I'm embarrassed...
However, it didn't take long for Sunset to confirm the goal, and as soon as Sunset was sure of the goal, he opened his hands and took the initiative to run towards Xiao Zhi, Arshavin and Ivo also followed, and several people happily celebrated in front of the Hujiang Blue Devils.
The second goal didn't have to wait long, in the 25th minute, Sunset received the ball from the back on the side, knocked behind him for the first time, turned around from outside the sideline, and let the Blue Devils Wang Yun pull without pulling.
Sunset had observed the pitch before catching up with the soccer ball and passed it to Ivo on the right side of the pitch.
Ivo carried Lu Zheng and swept the ball to the middle with a volley, and then Arshavin also volleyed the ball to the bottom of the ball, and the ball flew up and fell quickly over the defender's head, bounced in front of the goal and jumped into the goal.
Within a few seconds of the entire counterattack to the goal, tens of thousands of spectators at the Hongkou Football Stadium were silent, and then a huge sigh resonated and hit the hearts of the Hujiang Blue Devils.
The Hujiang Blue Devils head coach Jilo on the sidelines jumped like thunder, pointing to Sunset's position and roaring at Bai Jiajun, meaning that it seemed that he shouldn't have pressed too much on the assist just now to miss Sunset.
Next, Bai Jiajun followed Sunset every step of the way, and if Sunset was thrown off to get the ball, he would not hesitate to shovel, push, and pull down, resolutely not giving Sunset a chance to play.
Bai Jiajun is a few centimeters shorter than Sunset 171, and his characteristics are similar to Sunset, even if Sunset can take the lead and get stuck, he can't completely get rid of it and not give people a chance to foul, so he was restricted for a long time.
