Chapter 19: The First Battle (1)
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the referee blew the whistle, and the 34th round of the 2014 Youth Football League Yulong Youth Team hosted the Blue Moon Youth Team. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Yulong Youth Team head coach Wu Li is a 5-4-1 formation today, goalkeeper Li Rui, right back Xiang Rong, right center back Lu Bin, drag back center back Dai Jianqiang, left center back Li Ke, left back Wang Xiaohou, that is, monkey, right forward Xu Qiuming, center guard Gu Ziyun, center guard Mao Xiao, left forward Shen Shijie, forward Zhao Xiaoyu.
The opponent, the Blue Moon Youth Team, lined up a standard 4-4-2 parallel standing formation today.
At the beginning of the game, the Blue Moon team directly skipped the stage of mutual testing at the beginning, pressed the attack vigorously, rushed together on the two wings, and the central defenders also stood near the midfield line, and once they lost the ball, they launched a counter-robbery, and firmly suppressed the Jade Dragon team, which had already adopted defensive tactics, in their own half.
So domineering? Banglin was shocked by the Blue Moon's simple and rough way of playing. Turning his head, he asked Ma Xiuming: "This Blue Moon is a strong team?" I remember their poor away results, right? ā
"It's not strong. They seem to have won 1 or 2 away games, I can't remember. ā
"So what are they going crazy about today?"
"Huh? What's wrong? Ma Xiuming was puzzled by Bang Lin's words.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Ma Xiuming's dazed appearance, Bang Lin was even more dazed. Even if the super strong team runs to the away game, it won't play like this at the beginning, right? Although the Jade Dragon team is indeed a little too weak, and the invincible record of 33 consecutive defeats has been played, but your Blue Moon team is not a super strong team after all, how can it be pressed on all sides at the beginning? It's too contemptuous of people, right? Do you think this is a friendly match between the main team and the substitutes on your own training ground?
"Don't you think they're pressing too deep?" Bang Lin asked Ma Xiuming.
"It's okay." Ma Xiuming said.
"You don't play like this every game, do you?"
"yes."
"Holy! It's a shame too! Why don't you take the initiative to pull away from the fight? ā
"Because we can't fight them because we pull them apart." Matthew said weakly, very embarrassed.
Bang Lin didn't speak again, but stared intently at the field, and Ma Xiuming's words woke him up. After a while, Bang Lin fully understood what Ma Xiuming meant.
Through careful observation, Bang Lin found that the players of the Blue Moon team were all players with rich game experience, even if they were not very experienced in the game, they were all richer than the players of the Jade Dragon team.
The players of the Blue Moon team are very good at using their bodies, whether they are on the ball or off the ball, and they can always use their bodies to gain an advantage on a local scale. And this is where the weakness of the players of the Jade Dragons lies.
The players of the Jade Dragon team suffered a lot in the physical confrontation, the two chased a ball at the same time, and the opponent only needed to push it with a little butt, and the players of the Jade Dragon team immediately lost their center of gravity, and when they adjusted back, the opponent had already taken the first step to control the ball.
The same is true for headers in the penalty area, as long as it is a half-goal, the defenders of the Jade Dragons team can only cause some interference to the opponent at most, and never grab the landing point, so the defensive strategy of the Jade Dragons team is to desperately block the opponent on the side and not let the opponent cross comfortably.
In terms of physical confrontation, there is only one player in the Jade Dragon team who can maintain a balance of power with the opponent, this person is the captain Xiang Rong, whether in terms of strength or speed, Xiang Rong does not fall behind, which also makes him very stable in the position of right back, and can resolve the opponent's attack in time every time, leaving almost no chance for the opponent to cross.
No wonder it's 5-4-1, Banglin sighed. Head coach Wu Li chose this formation probably not to stand on defense and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack, or that this is just a beautiful vision, but it is not realistic.
Bang Lin felt that the head coach Wu Li just had no choice, and the real reason for choosing the 5-4-1 formation was probably only because this formation was the only formation that could bring out the maximum energy of all the players of the Jade Dragon team at present, and that he could also maneuver with the opponent through teamwork. Through this kind of maneuvering, the Jade Dragons can finally achieve a stable defense and then fight for a point for the team, but this point still needs a lot of luck to earn.
History tells us that the most amazing thing on the football field is luck, and the most unreliable thing is also luck.
In the 33rd minute of the first half, the players of the Jade Dragons, who had been under attack for half an hour, reached the limit of their physical fitness, and the left-back monkey gasped for breath with his mouth open, but still felt that the air in his mouth was not enough to cover the needs of his lungs. He wanted to stop and take a deep breath, but he wouldn't give him the chance.
The players of the Blue Moon team are not rookies who are debuting in the professional arena, and Xiang Rong's side can't open up the situation, and they have long put the focus of attack on the monkey road. After observing the physical condition of the monkey, the Blue Moon team took the ball and kept passing the ball to the right side, and the right midfielder once again took the ball and sprinted towards the baseline.
This time, the monkey finally failed to catch up with the opponent's rhythm, and when he blocked with his foot, he was already a step slower, and was passed by the opponent with a cross with good arc and power. The Blue Moon striker who followed up in the middle jumped up to meet the ball, knocked down the Jade Dragons' central defender Dai Jianqiang in the air, and pushed the ball into the goal.
"Beautiful! Strike! ā
"Entered!"
"Damn! Foul! ā
"Bump into someone foul!"
The moment the ball flew into the goal of the Jade Dragon team, the players of both teams shouted at the same time, the players of the Blue Moon team were of course cheering for the goal, and the Jade Dragon team was accusing the opponent of fouling first.
Dai Jianqiang, the main central defender of the Jade Dragons, was knocked to the ground, and seemed to have hit his foot when he landed, and he was kneeling on both knees at this time, his head against the turf, and holding his ankle with one hand, looking very painful.
"If you foul someone, you hit someone first, and the goal doesn't count."
"Mao! Which eye did you see the hit? ā
"Damn! Do you dare to pay for a foul? The people are still lying there. ā
"Get out of the way, is this a reasonable collision, do you understand? Lao Tzu has been playing football for several years, and it's the first time I've encountered such a casual one, like a girl. ā
"! You kid owe a beating, don't you? ā
"Yo, there's a kind of you going to beat it up, do it? I'll beat me up, I promise not to fight back, and I still call you uncle, how about it? ā
On the field, the newcomers of the Jade Dragon team angrily surrounded the striker who hit the opponent, full of gunpowder, and the striker of the Blue Moon team who scored the goal was an old oilman on the field, teasing the nerves of the players of the Jade Dragon team with his mouth, but his hands were always behind his back.
The referee saw that the players of the two teams had clashed, and ran over to pull away the Jade Dragon players who were surrounding the strikers of the Blue Moon team. When the players of Yulong saw the referee coming up, they pointed to Dai Jianqiang on the ground and complained to the referee. The players of the Blue Moon team accused the Jade Dragon team of besieging the opposing players and should eat cards. The captain of the Blue Moon team took advantage of this opportunity to squeeze around the referee, and kept gesturing with his arm, probably to signal to the referee that this was a reasonable collision and the goal was valid.
And Xiang Rong, the captain of the Jade Dragon team, was squatting beside Dai Jianqiang at this time, asking about his situation, and then signaling to the sidelines. There is no team doctor in the youth team game, Wu Li saw this scene, and immediately rushed into the stadium to check Dai Jianqiang's injury.
"Damn!" Bang Lin on the bench had already jumped up, and the ball just now was from his point of view, the opposing striker's arm was raised when he jumped, and he pushed Dai Jianqiang a little, but the action was very small, and his arm was immediately retracted after the top.
This kind of ball should be considered a foul in theory, but because the opponent's striker is the first to jump and has an advantage over Dai Jianqiang in the control of the landing point, this should be a foul that can be blown or not, it depends on how the referee decides.
"Foul! Foul! The rest of his teammates on the bench were also shouting.
"! Intentional foul! A red card should be given! Ma Xiuming was so angry that he lost his mind, and even shouted words like giving a red card.
"It depends on how the referee blows, and the referee's angle may not be as clear as ours. Hey, why didn't the captain go up and reason with the referee? What are you doing guarding Dai Jianqiang!! Bang Lin saw that the captain Xiang Rong had been squatting beside Dai Jianqiang, and he was also anxious.
At this time, you are a captain, and there is a use for guarding injured players? You're not a team doctor. Didn't you see that the captains of the other people all went up to reason with the referee? At this time, of course, you should also hurry up, regardless of whether the referee listens to you or not, it is always right for you to say a few more words.
The referee is also a human being, and the roots of human ears will be soft, even if there is no reason on your side, there will be no less meat around the referee's theory, maybe there will be an unexpected joy, haven't you seen that the universe team has always done this before? The technique of besieging the referee is simply like being professionally trained, and the surrounding is a cosmic team.
Bang Lin felt that it was definitely a huge mistake for Xiang Rong not to go to the referee theory at this time, this was originally a 50% to 50% penalty, go up and say a few words, in case the referee forgot to bring his brain when he went out today, and felt that what you said made sense, wouldn't it be invalid to blow the goal!
It's a pity that the emperor is not in a hurry to be a eunuch, Bang Lin was so anxious that he jumped on the sidelines, and the captain Xiang Rong still squatted beside Dai Jianqiang safely, without showing the slightest desire to talk to the referee.
In the end, the referee ruled that the goal was valid after consulting with the linesman, and the players of the Blue Moon team happily ran back to their own half, while the players of the Jade Dragon team all gathered in their own penalty area in disappointment, and all their faces were written unwillingly.
After an inspection by head coach Wu Li, Dai Jianqiang's injury was not light, and he could no longer continue to insist on the game. The substitution in the central defender position undoubtedly dealt another heavy blow to the Jade Dragons, and the prospects of the game were even more unoptimistic.
After the substitution, the game continued, the score was 0-1, and the Blue Moon team, who was playing away, took the lead.
