The Chinese and Iranian players took to the pitch under the leadership of the referee, and the starting lists of both sides were released in the interval between the national anthems. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

China's starting lineup:

No. 1 Zhang Zhetian, No. 5 Zhang Linpeng, No. 3 Mei Fan, No. 6 Feng Xiaoting, No. 4 Jiang Zhipeng, No. 15 Wu Rixi, No. 10 Zheng Zhiri (captain), No. 20 Zhang Xihao, No. 18 Gao Lin, No. 22 Yu Dabao, No. 9 Zhang Yuning.

Compared with the starting line of the South Korean team in the last game, the midfield has been adjusted greatly.

First of all, the formation of this game is a full attacking 4-3-3, with three midfielders arranged in two midfielders, only one Zhang Xiwei and one technical midfielder.

Secondly, Marcelo Lippi's formation tonight is very strange, and the strange thing is that there are three high-school strikers with poor mobility on the front line, which makes experts and football experts very puzzled.

You must know that in the technical and tactical system of world football, the 4-3-3 formation is generally composed of two speed-type wingers and a point-grabbing center, and there will only be a few "twin towers" in the three fronts.

Similar to the trident used by the Chinese team in the "three towers" tonight, it is not to mention unique, but also rare.

Maybe Lippi was afraid of the Iranians' fierce pressing, or maybe he wanted to focus on the weaknesses of the opponent's air defense, and wanted to use the excellent physical condition of the three center forwards to meet the opponent hard, and effectively consume the physical strength of the opponent's defense in the first half, and use height and headers to increase the aerial threat of set-pieces, so as to pave the way for tactical changes in the second half.

However, the three high forwards come out and sacrifice the rotation and wing defense in the front court in exchange for the high point of the counterattack, which will cause the two full-backs to make up for the lack of defensive ability of the three center forwards, and open up the loopholes for the two forwards facing Iran behind them.

How will China solve the defensive problems on the wings?

Let's look at Iran's starting lineup.

No. 1 Alireza Beranvande, No. 21 Vilia Gafari, No. 15 Peyman Montazeri, No. 8 Moteza Prariganji, No. 2 Milad Mohammed, No. 9 Omid Ibrahimi, No. 6 Saeed Esatolasi, No. 7 Masut Shojay (captain), No. 18 Alireza Jahanbakhsh, No. 16 Reza Guchanejad, No. 17 Mehdi Taremi.

Iran, in the name of the West Asian team, has always been tough in its tactical play.

After Carlos Queiroz led the team, he was even more affected by the European high-level pressing and physical toughness, and the defense boldly invested personnel to rush to the front of the opponent's penalty area.

Once the opponent passes through the midfield, he does not hesitate to go down the shovel frantically, rush vigorously, and restrain the opponent's counterattack with fouls.

In the attack, he often breaks through the defense line with a wall-hitting straight plug after the counter-robbery, and the long pass center grabs the point to ferry is also a common offensive routine.

The frontcourt players change positions frequently, and after the center striker retreats to bring out the center back, the wide players are very resolute in the anti-offside position behind the center back.

Rather than using the flanks to break through, the Iranian team, which likes to use its physical and technical advantages, is more inclined to organize attacks in the middle.

Like the Chinese team, Iran is also in a 4-3-3 formation, and surprisingly, the number one killer "Iranian Messi" Sardar Azmoun did not start, and it seems that the Iranian team obviously has a hand.

"Iran is underestimating us!" Massimiliano Maddaloni said with an ugly face.

Li Tie frowned slightly, with the trump card of Azmoun, does Queiroz think that he can break the door of Zhang Zhetian with the starting three forwards?

Wouldn't it be naïve?

If Queiroz had been naïve, he would not have been trusted by the Iranian Football Association for 6 years, and Azmoun would not have been used because of the problem with the state of this Iranian Messi.

In the entire round of 12, except for the match against Syria in November last year, which was not selected for club reasons, Azmoun started the two legs against Qatar, away to China, and home to South Korea, and came off the bench against Uzbekistan away, but only scored the winning goal against South Korea, and the rest of the games were without goals and no assists.

This kind of data makes people feel unworthy of the name for Iran's Messi, perhaps, it should not be called Messi, because fans all over the world know that the first person in today's football who scored goals in Barcelona was judged to be two people in the national team, and this kind of state of killing all sides in the club and going to the national team but sluggish seems to have been infected to Azmoun.

Only 1 goal in 5 games, Portugal doesn't care if you are Messi or not, not to mention that you are really not Messi, so put him on the bench in this game, ready to decide whether to use this trump card in the second half according to the situation of the game.

Since the time difference between Iran and Europe is only two and a half hours, the start of this game is in the evening in Europe.

London, England, Arsène Wenger watching TV.

Manchester City, England, Josep Guardiola watching TV.

Germany, Borussia Mönchengladbach, palm rushing watching TV.

Beijing, China, Lai Yumeng watches TV.

Two sisters, Song Zuer and Shu Chang, watched TV.

In Shanghai, China, Jiang Shuying, Zhao Yuqi, Hu Ji, and Lu Shu were in a bar, looking at the big screen, which was playing the Sino-Iranian war.

At 20 o'clock in the evening Beijing time, at 16:30 in the afternoon Tehran time, Singapore referee Taki blew the opening whistle, and the Iranian team, which kicked off first, continuously played a rapid impact of straight forward passes, wanting to score as soon as possible.

In the 4th minute, after the Iranian midfielder won the ball, he quickly penetrated through the pass, Taremi burst into the penalty area and was about to shoot, but found that his feet were empty, and a green figure came into view.

It turned out that the moment Taremi entered the penalty area, Zhang Zhetian had already quickly knocked down and held the ball in his arms.

Queiroz nodded secretly, he had long seen that the strongest link of the Chinese team was the goalkeeper position, and he also knew that it would be very difficult to score goals in this game, unless there was a big mistake in the Chinese team's backline.

This kind of defender digging pit is not uncommon, but Queiroz is also mentally prepared for a draw in this game, as long as he does not lose, he can accept this result, after all, Iran is already on the verge of qualifying with half a foot, there is no need to fight hard with the Chinese team, unnecessary losses.

Zhang Zhetian quickly got up with the ball, rushed to the penalty area line and kicked off directly, Dongfeng Express!

Watching the ball fall on Zhang Yuning's head like an eye, Zhang Yuning's header was ferried, and Gao Lin tried a long shot before the opponent, but the result was greatly off the goal.

Gao Lin shook her head, turned around and gave Zhang Yuning a thumbs up, and then raised his thumbs up to Zhang Zhetian in the backcourt to express his gratitude.

"Good job, keep the momentum going!" On the sidelines, Maddaloni clapped his palms and shouted, and Li Tie applauded and encouraged him.
