Chapter 141: A good start
It's not a stretch to say that the East Asian Cup is a chicken-ribbed tournament, at least for Asian soccer powerhouses like South Korea and Japan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the first match of the East Asian Cup final week, the host South Korea team faced almost a second-tier team. It's not that they look down on the Chinese team, uh, maybe it's more or less interesting, but more importantly, it's not that the South Korean team doesn't send the strongest main team, but in this East Asian Cup, they didn't have players called into Europe at all.
It can be seen that the South Korean team does not attach as much importance to this tournament as expected, although they are the hosts.
Of course, the less they pay attention to it, the better, so that for the Chinese team, there is a good chance.
The game started on time at 15:15 in the afternoon, the South Korean team came up with a strong offensive posture, although most of the main players did not return to the team to participate in the game, but the ability of these players on the field is not bad, and there is a main force on weekdays to press them, they are difficult to have a bright day, and now they can be the starter, naturally want to perform well, in order to increase the impression in the heart of the head coach.
As for the Chinese team, as always, they put on a defensive posture - the reason why it is said is as always, because when facing a team that is stronger than themselves, they habitually put themselves in a weak position, thinking about defending well first, and then counterattacking.
The idea is correct, but after being suppressed for a long time, many players will not be clear in their minds, either they move too much, or they pounce too hard, and from time to time they will expose problems in the defensive line and be caught by the opponent.
This has simply become a vicious circle, the more you feel that you are inferior to your opponent, the more you show weakness, and the more you show weakness, the more you are chased and beaten by your opponent, and the more you fight, you will collapse yourself.
This is actually a matter of self-confidence - this is also something that is difficult to change at this stage, in the last ten years, the Chinese team has always lost more than won against South Korea and Japan, and it is naturally difficult for the players to boost their confidence.
If you want to change this, the best way is to win, and it is a continuous win, it is better to let the opponent suffer from "Sinophobia", and if you win more, the confidence will naturally return.
It's just that it's really too difficult for the current Chinese team to win against the South Korean team - occasionally win once or twice, or when the opponent is napping. To put it mildly, the current football level of South Korea and Japan is far ahead of Chinese football, and it is not on the same channel at all.
However, today's Chinese team is playing very steadily, although it is also based on defense, but the three lines are still complete and compact, and the players are running very actively, so they still have some advantages for a while, at least the rapid counterattack is impressive, and in terms of mental outlook, it also seems to be very hardworking.
This actually has little to do with the acting head coach Fu Bo, he has only been in charge of the management of the team for a long time, and he will not be able to bring earth-shaking changes to the national football team in a short period of time, not to mention whether he has the ability to do so, the Football Association can directly reach out to him to intervene in the management of the national team, even if he has great ability, the role will not be too great.
In fact, the current style of play of the national team is the same as that of Camacho. Regardless of what has been said about Camacho, the Spanish coach must have something to do since he has been successful in Europe's top leagues and has a proven resume.
He brought his tactical style of play to the Chinese team and also recruited some young and energetic players, which made the age structure of the national team more youthful and more consistent with his philosophy of fast football. His greatest contribution to the national team is to make the coordination of the national team smoother - although limited by ability, the Chinese team's transmission skills may not be first-class in Asia, but they are barely second-rate. Especially in the counterattack, because there are many young players, there is speed and momentum, and there is Gao Lin as the fulcrum in the frontcourt, so the fight is still very orderly.
If Camacho can persist and implement his own ideas in the coaching position of the Chinese team, the level of Chinese football may make great progress. It's a pity that China's domestic environment will not give him this opportunity, his crooked kernel is not clear about China's bureaucracy and some doorways, and after he is clear, his head coaching power is gradually hollowed out, and then later, his energy is no longer on building the team, but into the cold war with the Chinese Football Association, and finally the contradiction broke out, so that now the two sides are still fighting each other.
The Football Association is dissatisfied with Camacho, and the fans are equally dissatisfied with the poor results of the foreign coach, and Camacho has almost become a sinner in Chinese football.
It's just to look at the essence through the phenomenon of things, to put it bluntly, Camacho may have a big dereliction of duty, but the Football Association is not a good thing, coupled with the specific football environment in China, his failure is reasonable.
Two flowers bloom, one for each, let's talk about this East Asian Cup game first.
On the field, the South Korean national team players who are currently on the field are indeed playing very actively, but compared to their main players, the strength is still lacking.
On the contrary, after the Chinese team withstood the onslaught of the opponent for about ten minutes after the start of the game, gradually, there was also the spare strength to start some counterattacks. However, in addition to counterattacking, the Chinese team still pays attention to defense, no way, these players are about to have a psychological shadow by years of "Koreanophobia", for them, not conceding the ball is the best result.
In this game, Qin Shou still entered the eighteen-man squad, but he was not in the starting lineup. Acting head coach Fu Bo did not give any explanation, in fact, there is no need to explain, the current Qin Shou's position in the Chinese team is really embarrassing, on the one hand, Qin Shou has been playing overseas, and the run-in degree with the national team is very poor, and another point, Qin Shou is not treated by the senior management of the Football Association is a well-known thing, and he, the acting coach, has not yet dared to do it with the Football Association.
It's also quite cola, since the Chinese team has lost consecutive games, the domestic media and fans have been crusading and abused, and the Football Association and Camacho have fallen into a quarrel, the Zhu coach who has covered the sky in the national team has also settled down a lot.
No one is an idiot, the situation of the national team is so difficult now, Zhu Zijun also understands that he is okay with political and ideological work, if you really want to talk about managing the team and leading the team to play, he is really not hot enough, and the national football team is now like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, he goes up and directs blindly, if the results are worse, then the next "scapegoat" must be him, this point will definitely not be able to run.
So for the sake of his own future, or for the sake of being less poked in the backbone, anyway, this Director Zhu has been so low-key recently that he can't be more low-key, and basically no longer interferes in the affairs of the team, his idea is to let Fu Bo toss, if the results of the team are not good, then let the acting coach take the blame, if the results are good, ha, at that time he will jump out and pick peaches.
I have to sigh that there is no one who can mix in Chinese officialdom who is not a human being.
This is also good news, without Director Zhu's careless guidance, the training and game arrangements of the national team went smoothly. It's like this game is completely in accordance with Fu Bo's will to direct the game.
Qin Shou nodded again and again on the bench, although the Chinese team looked at a general disadvantage on the field, but the defense was still very solid, and it was extremely threatening to give the opponent a counterattack coldly. Although the South Korean team has more shots on goal, the Chinese team's counterattack is more threatening, and in this respect, the Chinese team has some advantages.
The Chinese team's style of play made Qin Shou feel a little familiar, and after thinking about it, he suddenly realized that this is not a simplified version of Atletico Madrid's tactical routine. Nothing. Defend well first, the whole team is like a never-ending machine, crazy running, crazy pressing, as for the attack, there are core players in the midfield to convert and dispatch.
The core of the Chinese team's midfield is the captain Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi's ability is very good, he has also played in the Premier League and the Soviet Super League, and he is considered a top-notch existence among domestic players. However, his ability is 108,000 miles worse than Qin Shouna, and this kind of tactical play requires a high level of strength from the core, and Zheng Zhi is getting older, so his movements are a little slow when he converts.
But fortunately, although the Chinese team is not the real Atletico Madrid, and the South Korean team is not Real Madrid and Barcelona, this style of play is really effective, and the opponent is temporarily evenly matched.
It seems that Atletico Madrid's unique tactical style of play is not only forming a trend in Europe, but also has begun to become popular in Asia, and even teams have begun to imitate it, and the Chinese team is one of them.
Of course, this style of play also has great drawbacks, just one point, if the physical fitness is insufficient, then in the second half of the game, the crazy team is easy to disconnect the three lines, and then the rout of one line causes the rout of the whole line, which leads to a collapse.
Qin Shou was very worried about such a situation.
However, to his delight, the Chinese team took the lead in scoring before the drawbacks were revealed. The effect of their crazy rush tactics is really just, resulting in passing mistakes from time to time by South Korean players, and in the 39th minute of the first half, Gao Lin and Wang Yongpo teamed up in the front court to force the opponent's defender Zhang Xianxiu's return pass to be smaller, and the full-back Hao Junmin quickly stepped forward, grabbed the opponent's goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong before the attack, and stabbed the football on the ball, and the football rolled directly into the empty goal.
1:0, the Chinese team made a very good start on the opponent's turf.
