In the first leg of the group stage of Group B, the match between the Chinese team and the Saudi team is about to start, and the Chinese fans on the scene account for the vast majority.

China is not far from Australia, and it is a matter of a few hours to fly over, plus after the World Cup in Brazil, China's fan organization has become more and more mature, so there will definitely be no shortage of Chinese fans who will come to the scene of the Asian Cup this time.

In this game, the Chinese team's starters made relatively big changes, especially the formation, Li Guo knew that 4231 was slowly becoming less popular after that, and the future trend was 433.

Some people say that 433 is the best formation to do the balance of attack and defense, but in fact, it is not necessarily, the theory of football is always developing, maybe 442 will make a comeback in a few years, just like after the Manchester United dynasty, everyone learns 442.

Li Guotie took the Asian Cup as a test field to test his new ideas, and today's starting lineup of the Chinese team is,

Goalkeeper - Wang Dalei

Back line - Mu Fei, Zhou Dun, Li Heng, Geng Chong

Midfielders - Lin Zhijian, Zheng Zhi, Liao Lisheng

Forwards - Chen Green, Ji Ke, Qu Bo

Innovation must come at a price, otherwise everyone will innovate, the Chinese team has changed the 4231 that has been used for many years, and it has become 433, and the first cooperation is not so tacit.

Over the years, 4231 has formed a fixed position on the field, and the players don't need to look to roughly know who is standing in what area, of course, it is probable, at least eighty or ninety percent is not wrong.

However, after the change of formation, the inertial thinking did not change all of a sudden, and the Chinese team's passing was obviously stuck.

There is also Chen Green, in the World Cup, he was the single arrow of the Chinese team, at the front, and now he has moved to the side, and the bridgehead of the Chinese team is Ji Ke, which is also a challenge for Chen Green.

The Chinese team played for 10 minutes, and there were many problems, at this time the Saudi team felt that the opportunity had come, and the Chinese fans were also doubting, they did not understand why 4231 played so well, but the Chinese team had to change the formation.

Li Guo has advanced knowledge, but this cannot be explained, and the only proof can only be the results on the field.

In the 20th minute of the game, the score was still 0-0, and the confidence of the Saudi players increased greatly, they were like donkeys in the "poor donkey skills", and they became more and more bold, and the Saudi players who were originally cowering in their own defense zone slowly began to cross the half.

Before the game, the head coach has been instilling a concept in the players, that is, the Chinese team is a professional player like us, and people do not have three heads and six arms, so why should we be afraid of the Chinese team.

But the players are afraid, this is like Evergrande meeting Barcelona in the Club World Cup, and they are afraid in their hearts, but after 20 minutes of play, the players completely believe the words of the head coach, and the Chinese team is by no means a flood beast.

The field is stuck, of course, the fans hope that Li Guo will quickly give up the ridiculous 433 and immediately return to the 4231 formation, and the opponent will be like chopping melons and vegetables, let us have a good time.

But Li Guo will not change, even if it is at a greater cost, and the price will soon really come.

The Chinese team's backline players have always been accustomed to having an iron-waisted square rope in front of them, and Fang Suo will intercept 70% of the threat, and the rest of the work is handed over to the defenders, but today it has changed, the Chinese team has lost its barrier in front of the back line, and the Saudi Arabian team will meet the Chinese team's defenders as soon as the ball is broken.

This put a lot of pressure on the Chinese defenders, and finally Li Heng made a mistake, he fouled in the penalty area, and the referee blew for a penalty.

It's no wonder that Lee Hyung, if it is in the Premier League, such a small action is reasonable, but in the Asian Cup, such a physical confrontation becomes a foul.

A penalty, the players on the Saudi bench jumped up, as if they saw the best chance to slap the Chinese team in the face.

In fact, even Chinese fans are secretly glad that the opponent won a penalty in their hearts, so that they can wake up Li Guo, people will miss the glory and don't like to change, everyone likes Fang Suo and Zheng Zhi's double back, that is the taste of China.

The Saudi team's No. 9 Hazaz stood in front of the ball, and Wang Dalei kept staring at Hazaz, with an unprovoked cold light in his eyes.

Wang Dalei is a player who stood in the penalty shootout of the World Cup, which was like a baptism, making Da Lei domineering.

Of course, Hazaz also knew, so he trembled a little before the penalty, and Wang Dalei kept yelling at the opponent to hurry up.

Hazaz kept his head down and didn't look at the side of the goal, just waiting for the referee to blow the whistle and Hazaz started to run.

Hazaz kicked a half-high ball, which was Wang Dalei's favorite ball, and Da Lei pounced sideways and pressed the ball firmly under him.

Saudi players can't believe their eyes, the boiled duck flies, and it's hard to have a second chance like this.

After missing the penalty, the Chinese team did not give the opponent any more chances, and at the end of the first half, Ji Ke scored two goals in a row.

It is obvious that if the Saudi penalty is scored, the player may be like a chicken, but Hazzaz does not score the penalty, and the Saudi player is like a defeated rooster.

In the second half, Li Guo replaced three people in a row, replaced Zheng Zhi, replaced Shang Suo, replaced Qu Bo, replaced Shen Rui, and in the last place, Li Guo replaced the goalkeeper, so that the substitute goalkeeper could feel the atmosphere of the Asian Cup.

But there was a problem when changing the goalkeeper, many people may not know the meaning, in one of the games of the 2009 Bundesliga, Wolfsburg played Bayern at home, in the case of the victory was decided, Wolfsburg coach Magath replaced the goalkeeper, and suddenly Bayern captain Van Bommel was on fire, which was humiliating, and Magath was indeed to retaliate against Bayern that year to sweep him away.

So when Li Guo replaced the main goalkeeper in the second half, the Saudi Arabian coach applauded Li Guo and expressed his dissatisfaction, but Li Guo didn't expect that changing the goalkeeper would have such an effect, in fact, Li Guo just wanted to give the players a chance.

But Li Guo did not do anything violated, it was the opponent who was too glassy, the referee warned the Saudi coach, and the final game ended 2-0, and the Chinese team defeated the opponent in the first game without blood.

After the game, the Saudi coach refused to shake hands with Li Guo and left the stadium in a rage, and the Saudi players did not have any communication with the Chinese team players, let alone exchange jerseys.

But now the Chinese fans are very old, they boo the Saudi team, boo their impoliteness, because under normal circumstances, no matter what, shaking hands after the game is etiquette, Li Guo looked at this group of fans, and smiled, the fans have become more and more professional, and they are no longer the group of people who only shouted "enter one" in the past.

Li Guo beckoned: "Go, salute the fans." (To be continued.) )
