Section 172 Double surprise
Gao Shunyao's question was answered when the game arrived on the 19th. When the game started, sitting on the sidelines, watching the game on the field, Gao Shunyao also had a slight surprise in his heart. He was pleasantly surprised by nothing else, but the excellence of the Chinese national team.
This game was the first time Gao Shunyao had carefully observed the game of the Chinese national team, and he was also quite interested in what kind of tactics Coach Gao could arrange. It can be seen that although this game is a friendly match, Coach Gao arranged it quite seriously.
In his lineup, Yang Zhi is the starter, Rong Hao, Zhao Peng, Du Wei, and Zhang Linpeng are a back direction. Cui Peng, Yang Hao as the back, Yu Hai, Deng Zhuoxiang, Jiang Ning played as the forward, and in the front position, it was Gao Lin who played the striker - this formation is okay, although it is not the elite, but there are also a lot of good players.
Compared with the strength of the players, what is even more surprising is that on the field, the Chinese national team played far better than Gao Shunyao imagined. Although they still didn't score a goal for almost half the game, the pace of the game was quite amazing. The arrangement of the Chinese team is very good, and the two backs who have dragged back play quite well. And the attack in the front court is not a random kick, on the contrary, the game is played quite smoothly. Even in Japan, who is accustomed to seeing the smooth Cheng dù of those clubs in Japan, Gao Shunyao admits that this game was played quite well, both in terms of integrity and fluency.
Before entering the national team, it is impossible for Gao Shunyao not to prepare the information needed by the national team. In the past few days, he has really spent a lot of effort on checking the past game information of the national team. The national team he remembers is not what it is now. Although the national team has not won in the past, but. In Gao Shunyao's memory, the scenes of the national team games have never been particularly good-looking, and it is not easy to play like this.
And what especially surprised Gao Shunyao was. After 30 minutes of the game, the Chinese team was on their side. It's already starting to be replaced. It is not surprising that an early substitution in a friendly match is that after the substitution, China's tactics did not collapse because of this, on the contrary, they have been maintained very well. Being able to make substitutions while keeping the tactics the same is very difficult in itself. It's not easy for these players to do that.
Gao Shunyao has just entered the national team for a few days, and he hasn't trained much, but judging from the level of the national football team now. This high coach is still a bit of a doorway.
Watching the game, Gao Shunyao's mind also flashed Li Ze's evaluation of Coach Gao at the beginning. Li Ze is also a coach himself, although he can only coach youth football, but some deep-seated truths are always the same. In Li Ze's evaluation, Coach Gao's level is not necessarily high, but at least he is serious.
Coach Gao is not a talented coach, as an Asian coach, it is certain that his coaching philosophy and coaching methods cannot keep up with Europe, and there is no doubt that he does not have world-class ability. The ability of the coach depends on the players, what level the players have, what tactics the coach can study. There are no top players in this land of China, and it is completely impossible to give birth to a super coach. The domestic handsome is definitely inferior to the Europeans in their own ability.
Sometimes, though, it's not all tactical ability to coach a team. Some other techniques and methods are also required. A local coach still has all kinds of advantages over foreigners when coaching. Familiarity with the players. Adjustments to the lineup, these things. It is also impossible for foreigners to find out.
Since Coach Gao took over the national team, there have been a lot of troubles on the national team's side. People are dissatisfied with his coaching, his tactics, and his selection, but it is an indisputable fact that his team has always played well in this area of complaint. Winning the East Asian semi-finals, he defeated the Koreans, and now he has a good team of young people to train his ability, and his performance is higher than people think, although it can't satisfy some fans, but maybe it's just because the fans are too difficult to satisfy.
Gao Shunyao has never dared to express his opinion on this issue before. He didn't know the specifics of the matter, and he didn't want to say the wrong thing. But now it seems that Coach Gao is not wrong.
Although Coach Gao didn't say anything hard, looking at his team, he still played quite smoothly. Being able to play a good game is more important than any hard words, after all, football is kicked by feet, not blown.
Thinking of these, Gao Shunyao had a better impression of Coach Gao. He even thought that maybe this coach could really bring something out.
After all, the current national team seems to have the upper hand against European teams, and it is not easy for the national football team to play like this.
Of course, Gao Shunyao can also see that the strength that Leverkusen is playing now is definitely not in line with their status as the fourth in the Bundesliga. Many of the players who came to China from this team are not the main players, and they are like a second-tier team. Moreover, their defensive and organizational skills are amazingly bad. Gao Shunyao even suspected that their tactics were the tactics of the goalkeeper passing directly to the forward, and their back direction had a big hole, which made Gao Shunyao, a substitute on the sidelines, feel anxious when he looked at it - but, no matter what, they are a Bundesliga team.
Even if the goalkeeper directly looks for the striker's style of play, even if they are almost all second-tier players, a few days ago, they still played a 6-1 situation with the Chinese Olympic team. Their strength is not as bad as people think, and it can even be said to be quite good.
Their basic skills are indeed much more solid than those of the Chinese players, and the strength shown in many details of ball control and passing makes Gao Shunyao feel ashamed. Gao Shunyao can see that whether it is small skills or physical confrontation, they are not inferior to national football players at all. It's just that they really don't play very hard. Compared with the Chinese side playing the game quite seriously, the players of Leverkusen played somewhat carelessly. For them, this game is completely unimportant, which makes them play rather lightly.
For them. It seems like it's just a game. So it's no wonder that they were completely suppressed by the Chinese national team.
It's just that. Although one side did not play very seriously, the other side almost did its best. But the national football team still has no way to score goals. And the biggest problem why there was no goal seems to be the striker on the side of the national football team.
Originally, Gao Lin was able to start in this game, but Gao Shunyao could only play as a substitute, which made Gao Shunyao a little jealous of Gao Lin before the game started. But in the first half, Gao Lin's play completely put away Gao Shunyao's thoughts. His performance was so bad that Gao Shunyao didn't even have a jealous mind: when a striker missed three solo shots in the half-game, it was his substitute. will feel pitiful for him.
If the Chinese national team gave Gao Shunyao a big surprise, then Gao Lin's performance was a small surprise: in such a smooth team, there is such an aggrieved striker, which is the best news for Gao Shunyao, who wants to be in the main position.
In the past, Gao Shunyao always heard people say that Gao Lin's shooting was too bad, but now, he finally knows how bad it is. Gao Shunyao asked himself if he was not a good shooter. But watching him shoot, Gao Shunyao's confidence immediately increased.
He must play better than him, and Gao Shunyao believes that he will definitely not be able to do this kind of thing by throwing three single knives in a row. As long as you can get a chance to play. It is not difficult to squeeze him out as the main striker.
Gao Shunyao thought so from the sidelines, while at the same time. Coach Gao was thinking about the same question. Gao Lin's performance, Coach Gao also felt helpless.
The whole idea of his team is there. The players are not very fixed, but they are not without quality. But what they lack now. It's the finishing ability and offensive system in the frontcourt: in other words, this is not just what Coach Gao's team lacks, basically all generations of national teams have not had a good offensive system.
This problem can be said to be a long-standing one, the skills of Chinese players are not strong, and when facing strong teams, the frontcourt players often have no technical advantages. Without absolute technical superiority, more coordination and more running are needed to create a tactical system, but this is what the Chinese team lacks.
China's frontcourt lacks a core figure in the offensive system.
Most of the Chinese forwards like to be shooters and killers, but they don't like to be coolies. Hao Cannon was so famous back then, but even he supported the offensive system. And besides him, others are even less worthy of mention. Li Jinyu's problem is even stricter, which is the most important reason why he always does not play well in the national team. Even earlier, for example, Coach Gao, who is now sitting on the sidelines, was unable to be the core of the offense when he was playing.
Chinese football always praises the cleverness of kicking and the smoothness of kicking, but if the lubricant is too much, sometimes it does not use strength.
It's just that there was still lubricant at that time, and now, looking at Gao Lin in his team, Coach Gao sighed helplessly: Even if there is a Li Jinyu, this game will not be 0-0. Gao Lin, a striker, was purely used by the club's coaches. It was a good plain zhì, but it didn't kick it out.
And the more Gao Lin plays, the more Coach Gao expects from Gao Shunyao.
Compared with them, Gao Shunyao is a different kind of striker. Although his goals are wrong, or even a little less, his role on the pitch is completely different from others. Perhaps, the answer to the striker of the Chinese national team is really on him, if he is used well, the national football team can play a little better.
Thinking of this, Coach Gao also made up his mind. He walked to the sidelines and walked towards Gao Shunyao.
"Gao Shunyao, you played as soon as the second half started, is there a problem?"
The coach's words were like heaven to Gao Shunyao, and he jumped up in his seat and shook his head again and again.
How could there be a problem, he had been waiting for a long time. How to play and what to do after he plays, he has thought too much, what he needs is practice.
How strong are European teams? You can't see it. When you meet them, you naturally have to fight hard, and only on the court can you see each other's real kung fu. (To be continued......)
