For Gao Shunyao, the match with Qing Shui's heartbeat was definitely not a very memorable game. Although Tokyo FC still won the game in the end, Keisuke Iwashita's defense of Gao Shunyao in the game made Gao Shunyao's four consecutive goals come to an abrupt end.

In a sense, Gao Shunyao was finally prevented by Keisuke Iwasita in this game. Because of his rather violent defensive actions, Gao Shunyao did play more and more abnormally in the game. Because he was repeatedly treated roughly, but the referee kept turning a blind eye, and his anger became bigger and bigger. Especially in the second half, because he was repeatedly fouled, Gao Shunyao and Keisuke Iwashita quarreled, but instead received a yellow card, which made Gao Shunyao unable to calm down.

Because there is still an AFC Champions League match in midweek, Cheng Fuhao is also worried that Gao Shunyao will be injured or get into trouble because of this matter, and in the second half of the game, Cheng Fuhao also replaced Gao Shunyao early and did not let him continue to play on the field. Relying on violent kicking, Gao Shunyao was finally restricted and did not continue to break the goal.

After scoring in four consecutive games, Gao Shunyao's record of consecutive goals was finally stopped. However, the way in which his opponent stopped him also caused a lot of discussion in the Japanese media. Although the Japanese don't like to watch Gao Shunyao show off his martial arts, it still caused a lot of controversy to stop a player from playing in such a dirty way.

Of course, the focus of this controversy is not Gao Shunyao, but Keisuke Iwashita.

Keisuke Iwasita, who fouled Gao Shunyao, is also a well-known defender in the Japanese national team. He was the same year as Yohei Kajiyama and was one of the fringe figures of the Japanese national team. And he was not able to make the national team, except for injury problems. It's that he has too many fouls. With his dirty style, he has played a lot of good games. However, the Japanese national team has been worried that his style will cause unnecessary trouble when it reaches the national team.

He has been playing football since. This is not the first time that there has been such a problem, and Shimizu has always been like this with his playing characteristics, that is, his personality is more impulsive to defend him. But this time, Qing Shui's heartbeat was really a little powerless to defend. His movements are a little too obvious, people have all seen how he intercepted Gao Shunyao, after all, a football game is not a wrestling, how can there be an interception on people? No matter how good the physical condition of the opposing player is, this kind of defense is a bit too much.

Everybody knows. When Gao Shunyao played football in the past, he was rarely replaced by Cheng Fuhao on his own initiative, and his physical advantage has always been well-known. But because of Keisuke Iwashita's rough actions, Cheng Fuhao had to replace Gao Shunyao in advance, which also made the media talk about it.

"Even if the foul is Iwashita, this foul is too undeserved. The previous fouls could only be said to be impulsive, but this time the foul was simply intentional by him. ”

This time the Japanese media did not favor Keisuke Iwashita, after the game. All kinds of verbal and written criticisms also came to the face. No matter how much you say this foul, it is too undeserved, and the Japanese all know very well that if such a foul is connived, it will be a challenge to the existence of the J League. If you encounter a player who can't be stopped, go straight to your feet. So how is the game still played?

The J-League has always been very protective of its players, especially the midfielders, and their foul whistles are still very strict. But. The J-League is a league that values skill for tall players. Especially players like Gao Shunyao who play football with their bodies, their protection. There are some shortcomings.

There seems to be a misconception that a small player can be kicked if he is kicked, but even if a tall player is kicked, few people think that they will get injured because of it. Many people seem to have developed the idea that even a big player can withstand it.

Xiangtai Hirayama suffered this loss back then, and Gao Shunyao is also suffering this loss now. However, this time the matter was relatively big, and the Japanese could not settle the matter.

For Keisuke Iwasita, they are all scolding now.

It's just that although the media scolded Keisuke Iwasita a lot, the J League did not make any additional suspension for him. Obviously, the J-League chose to turn a blind eye to the rough defense of a national player's team.

"These guys are just protecting their shortcomings, and if this continues, the league will be ruined by them sooner or later. Don't worry about this game, anyway, we have 3 points, so we won't suffer any way. In this regard, the teammates were also a little indignant after the game, and when they talked to Gao Shunyao, they also comforted Gao Shunyao. Gao Shunyao accepted these words one by one with a smile, but he also had his own thoughts in his heart.

With the improvement of strength, Gao Shunyao inevitably encountered new problems in the process of playing, and in the game, more and more opponents were treated roughly, which also reminded Gao Shunyao that if he didn't want to be injured because of those unnecessary confrontations, he needed to pay more attention to his running position in the next game.

In the past, he was not the main scorer, so the opposing players would sometimes actively avoid playing against him, and he could also play recklessly. And in the future, since he has become the main scorer, the other party will definitely increase his watchfulness of him, and if he is not careful in the future, he may end up with the same fate as Kabore.

The opponent's foul is always unavoidable, Gao Shunyao knows very well that no matter how loose the scale of the J League usually is, how open the players are, when it comes to key games, the confrontation and rhythm are definitely different from usual. It is impossible to expect the opponent not to foul in the key game, and it is more important than blaming the opponent and strengthening yourself.

This kind of thing has to be done with care. Li Ze once said to Gao Shunyao that when a player wants to change his style of play, the problem he faces must be more than one aspect, the technique of playing football has always been a trigger that affects the whole body, and the number of shots has increased, so he has to think about avoiding damage, and his responsibility is greater, so he must better distribute the ratio of shooting and passing, how to run, how to control the ball, how to play the level of top players in the pure shooter position, these problems Gao Shunyao needs to consider.

It's not that easy to become a top shooter. Now when they encounter a clear water heartbeat, they will be able to entangle themselves so uncomfortable, and if they encounter a stronger team in the future, they will be in great trouble if they are not careful. It's a small thing to not play well, but it's a big injury – you have to be careful with some teams, for example, Pohang Steelers in midweek.

The final match of the AFC Champions League group stage finally arrived in midweek, with Tokyo FC taking on Pohang Steelers at their home stadium.

This game has also attracted the attention of the whole of Japan. Among the four teams participating in the AFC Champions League in the J-League, Gamba and Kashima have already qualified in advance, and their games have nothing to care about, compared to the final round of matches in Tokyo, which is to fight to the death against the defending AFC Champions League champions, which is the game that people really care about.

"In this match, Tokyo can only win, and on the contrary, Pohang Steelers can qualify with a draw, so Pohang Steelers has a lighter task in comparison. But speaking of which, Tokyo also have a big advantage, they have the advantage of being at home, and they may be able to win the game......"

In this game, NHK Sports did a live broadcast, as commentators, Shoji Castle and Hiroshi Kitazawa, also made a commentary on this game, and the situation of both sides, they all understand very well, this is a key battle in Tokyo, which can also be said to be a battle of life and death.

Hiroshi Kitazawa, the host of the studio, still pays great attention to Tokyo's advantages when analyzing. Although he faced a strong opponent in the final match, he still hoped that Tokyo could win.

"In the final round of the AFC Champions League, the defending champions of the AFC Champions League fought hard, and Tokyo's luck was really not very good. However, it has come to this point, and it has nothing to do with Tokyo's own lack of experience, losing both away games. It's the first time Tokyo has played in the AFC Champions League, so it's great to be able to do that. ”

As a special guest, Shoji Jojo has a slightly different view. After all, Tokyo played the AFC Champions League for the first time, and he was still fighting with the South Korean team in the last game, and Shoji Cheng was not optimistic about Tokyo's victory.

And when the game started, things were exactly as he expected: from the beginning of the game, Pohang Steelers chose to fully shrink the defense, and they held back in their own half, unable to live or die.

"POSCO chose to stick to it...... Playing away from home, they didn't force their attack, but were more conservative. As the reigning champion of the AFC Champions League, they do have a lot of experience, and it seems that they want to rely on their own defense to suffocate Tokyo. ”

Watching the game, Shoji Joji immediately understood their thoughts.

Pohang Steelers' choice was clear: since this is Tokyo's home stadium, they just have to defend to the end and get a point and be done.

In the current group, the points are 10, 10, 9, and 0. In the final game, Adelaide played Luneng at home, and Pohang Steelers also thought they would have won, reaching 13 points after the game. If Pohang Steelers are to win the group, they will have to beat Tokyo FC – but it will not be easy for Pohang Steelers FC away from home.

Therefore, their choice is to sensibly give up the advantage of fighting for the top spot in the group, and instead stick to the end, relying on one more point more group points than Tokyo, to overwhelm Tokyo and finish second in the group. In this way, compared to competing for the first place in the group, it is undoubtedly much more conservative, but it is undoubtedly much more reliable.

After all, they are a South Korean team, and the biggest advantage of Korean football over Japanese football is that they are very hard. A team like Pohang Steelers is really determined to defend it, and even Tokyo will have a hard time breaking through.

Not to mention anything else, when the South Korean team let go of its face and repeatedly relied on fouls to stop the opponent, the league style of the two sides has already determined that the Japanese team is naturally at a disadvantage. (To be continued......)
