Chapter 8 AFC Champions League Qualifying Round
Since the last time Li Yi announced that the team would participate in the 2014 AFC Champions League qualifiers, the whole team has been training harder to get a start in that game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
AFC Champions League qualifiers are usually held during the Chinese New Year, and Hope FC's first match is against Yangon United from Myanmar, which was the champion of last season's Myanmar Super League, but due to Myanmar's lack of points, they can only start from the AFC Champions League qualifiers.
At the pre-match press conference, the coach of Yangon United looked very confident and said to reporters: "This team is a joke at all, why did they qualify for the AFC Champions League, and their strength is not worth being put in our eyes at all. In my opinion, there is no need at all, I feel that setting up tactics is an insult to my players! “
Goni, who attended the press conference with the head coach, also showed disdain, saying that he wanted to slaughter Hope FC and let the home fans enjoy the feast of goals and tell them what football is.
"I don't think it's useful to say anything before the game, especially for people who like to talk about it, and I just want to send them home." Li Yi did not show weakness in the face of the provocation of Yangon United.
"We're going to work hard to win." Hope FC's captain Gao Zan said.
The match was played at the home of Yangon United.
"Let those who look down on us see our strength," Li Yi said in the locker room, "Let's talk about the starting list of this game, goalkeeper - Guo Xinxin, defenders from left to right are Lei Si, Sun Falcon, Li Zelin, Zhou Hanlin, two backs Li Zhizhi and Zhang Xiaotian, central midfielder Wu Jingdong, Wang Lin, Liu Tianli, single arrow striker Qu Tiantian, and the next six substitutes Lin Yige ......"
Obviously, Li Yi prefers to use the strong Qu Tiantian for the single-arrow main striker in his 451, rather than Lin Yige, who has more outstanding small skills but a slightly soft style.
After listening to Li Yi's playing list, Lin Yige's eyes revealed a trace of imperceptible disappointment.
"Zhang Xiaotian remembered your duty today, which is to stare at the opponent's Ivorian striker Goni, the second goods who wanted to slaughter us at the press conference yesterday, Qu Tiantian I hope you can be more active in the front court, use your running to pull out space, if you lose the ball, you will immediately counter on the spot, give them high pressure, and force them to make mistakes, you know, there are a few other key points to pay attention to, I think I have emphasized enough before, so I won't say anything." Lee Yi made the final deployment to the starters in the locker room.
The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.
Yoshio Okada, the referee from Japan, blew the opening whistle of the first half, and the first round of the 2014 AFC Champions League qualifying tournament officially kicked off.
At the beginning, Li Yi's team did not choose to attack, but chose to defend and counterattack, setting up an iron bucket formation.
Breaking the Iron Bucket Array is a worldwide problem.
In the first 10 minutes, Yangon United basically carried out a half-court offensive exercise, the head coach of Yangon United looked at the team's performance with a relaxed face, in his opinion, Li Yi's hope FC is not worth mentioning at all, don't look at it is still very tenacious, let Yangon United attack without conceding a goal, but the defensive side of football consumes much more physical strength than the passing side, you can hold on for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, or even the entire first half, but in the second half, especially the strength of the two teams is still very different, if the strength of the two teams is about the same, Or a little weaker still has a chance to hold the whole game.
In the 27th minute of the game, Yangon United Ivory Coast striker Goni broke through Zhou Hanlin at the front of the penalty area on the left side, Zhou Hanlin had no way, and pulled Goni's players in a hurry, the latter fell to the ground and got an excellent free kick in front, Zhou Hanlin was shown a yellow card warning, Eli Sangro took the penalty, and the penalty ball accurately fell to the head of the Ivorian striker Goni who jumped high, the latter pressed Zhang Xiaotian and the central defender Sun Falcon to head the goal, goalkeeper Guo Xinxin didn't have time to react, and the ball went into the net. The score was 1:0.
After the goal, the head coach of Yangon United still clasped his hands to his chest and did not even celebrate, which can be said to be a greater insult to Hope FC than the goal, and Li Yi on the other side was holding his head and looking a little frustrated, he knew the gap between his team and Yangon United, his plan was to keep the first half, and in the second half he was waiting for an opportunity to counterattack and steal one, but now he has lost a goal, and the situation is very critical.
"Change the anchor, I hope FC will not have any attack at all in these 27 minutes, that is called Qu Natural is a complete joke, what else is there besides being physically strong, and his body can't take advantage of Yangon United's backfield at all, and he can't get rid of it at all!"
"Agree upstairs, it's better to be on the anchor with faster speed and better small technology, and if you agree, keep the formation and change the anchor."
"Agree to go upstairs and change the anchor!"
"Agree to go upstairs and change the anchor!"
“.......”
The first to speak are Lin Yige's loyal fans on Qinglong TV, and they also understand a little bit of what football is through the watching of several games, as well as sometimes Lin Yige's explanation of the rules, of course, they are also the main force to reward Lin Yige.
Lin Yige, who was in the sky, also comforted them, signaling that they would definitely play in the second half, and Lin Yige didn't know where he got his confidence to play.
But hope FC's nightmare has not passed, in the first half of stoppage time, it was Ivory Coast striker Gony cut inside on the right side, shook off Zhou Hanlin by speed, and lightly buckled Sun Falcon in the middle and hit a far corner, although Guo Xinxin reacted to save and touched the ball, but the ball still rolled into the goal.
After Gooney's goal, he shook his finger at his team-mates who came up to celebrate, signaling not to celebrate, which seemed to him to be easy.
The head coach of Yangon United did not celebrate and was not seen by the players, but this time Goni's move made the players of Hope FC clench their fists fiercely.
"The other party is so provocative, if I had gone up and fought with him a long time ago!"
"Is upstairs stupid, you don't have to be warned by a yellow card when you fight, and you don't dare to make a move in the second half!"
"Isn't a fight a red card!"
"How do I remember it was a yellow card."
"It's a red card."
"If it's a yellow card, cut the eggs upstairs (alien JJ)"
"If it's a red card, you cut it, do you dare to gamble!"
"Come on, who's afraid of whom!"
"The front row is watching, selling melon seeds, and the first person is cheaper. Come on, everyone. ”
These barrages made Lin Yige go straight to the black line, and these people could actually quarrel over this.
