Section 388 The more you kick, the more reassuring you are

Although the Chinese side was not satisfied with the 1-0 score, they very much wanted to expand the score further. The Japanese team, on the other hand, was also quite dissatisfied with their team's backwardness, and has been trying to recover the score and prove their strength, but this game is obviously not a fast-paced offensive game, and the score between the two sides is still 1-0 until halftime.

Although the Japanese team carried out the most ferocious attack after conceding the goal, what they finally did was to contribute four meaningless shots again, and the biggest achievement was that they did not give the Chinese team any chance to shoot: although the Chinese team came to the end of the first half, there was another long pass from the side, but that pass, Zhang Linpeng kicked the ball directly out of the bottom line, even Gao Shunyao couldn't save it, and naturally couldn't form a shot.

This kind of scene was still the same until the beginning of the second half, and the Japanese team still had a large number of players on the field, and they seemed to play much better than the Chinese side.

For example, right now, Shinji Kagawa is making a breakthrough with the ball on the left side. Although he is facing Zhang Linpeng, a player who has recently become famous and has been handpicked by Lippi as capable of traveling to Europe, as a player who has already played at Manchester United, Shinji Kagawa certainly does not care about the so-called ability to travel to Europe. In front of Zhang Linpeng, he easily controlled the ball and did all kinds of tricks.

The feint flicks to the left, and then another feint to try to change direction. After two consecutive fireworks, Kagawa Shinji didn't move, but Zhang Linpeng retreated slightly. In front of Zhang Linpeng, he took the advantage. is just a few shakes from side to side, and Zhang Linpeng can be forced to retreat step by step. Judging from the scene, the Japanese team suppressed the Chinese team very strongly.

But. The fact is that Shinji Kagawa himself is indeed very clear, although it seems that the Japanese team is majestic, but he knows very well that such an advantage is meaningless.

Although he was able to force Zhang Linpeng not to dare to grab, he himself couldn't find any opportunities to break through the opponent's defense. Zhang Linpeng stood very close to the side, and Shinji Kagawa basically had no chance to raid from the side, and there was no way to get Yuto Nagatomo in the backfield to come up to help him. His best choice is to cut inside, but once he cuts inside, Zhang Linpeng will cut off Nagatomo Yuto's support for him. And he will be attacked by Huang Bowen and Feng Xiaoting. Shinji Kagawa is still very confident in his skills, and in a one-on-one situation, he doesn't particularly care about the players of the Chinese team, but if the situation becomes a one-on-two, or even one-on-three, and he can't find support, then even if he has great ability, he will only have a dead end.

Other words. Although he has the advantage, he has no way to face the opponent's tactic of not being able to shrink and be ready to join forces to rob at any time.

Such a situation. Shinji Kagawa has been depressed for more than this game. Whether it's for club or country, it's a huge problem that has always struggled with him. After all, he is not the kind of player who can easily break through with the ball in the face of two or three people, his skills are more in passing than in breaking. When he plays, he relies more on team-mates and tears apart opponents with clever passing and movement. For him, it was a better choice than eating it raw.

And because of that, when I was at Manchester United. He has also stressed to the media that he wants to play in the middle and not on the left side all the time.

But at Manchester United, his complaints were invalid, and when it came to the national team, it was also invalid. Just as Manchester United will not let him compete with more important local players for positions, the Japanese team has Keisuke Honda, who cannot play on the wing, and can only play on the wing, only Shinji Kagawa.

Helplessly looking at Keisuke Honda in the middle, Shinji Kagawa passed the ball over. He knows very well in his heart that he has no chance to break through, and Honda is also impossible to do, and he is not a player who is good at breaking through, especially in the middle, which is completely impossible, and the Japanese team's suppression can only be reversed between a few of them, and there is basically no hope of rushing in.

Sure enough, Keisuke Honda got the ball and immediately thought about breaking through the middle. But Zheng Zhi beside him approached him for the first time, forcing him to slow down, and making his raw food hopeless. He passed the ball with one foot and wanted to give the ball to Shinji Okazaki on the other side, but as soon as the corner kick was passed, it was intercepted by Feng Xiaoting.

It's okay to pass the ball from outside the box, but it's really hard to penetrate inside.

The defensive tactics of the Chinese team left the Japanese players at a loss. This defense line of the Chinese team, even if they play at home in Japan, has only lost one goal, although their individual ability is average, but the tactics are quite good, which has to be admitted.

In their hearts, they can only attribute this to the fact that after Lippi arrived in China, the training of the Chinese players has had a great effect - although they know that the Chinese team played like this before Lippi came, they are still willing to think so. And the only thing that makes them willing to admit that China has done a good job is that the Chinese coach did not choose to attack too stupidly, but used defensive tactics to the extreme, so that the Japanese team was helpless.

The Chinese commentators will worry about the physical problems of the Chinese team, but the Japanese players will not think about this, in their opinion, they cannot win against the Chinese team, it can only be said that it is their own ability.

Japanese players have long been questioned for being too homogeneous. They have good passing coordination, good ball control skills, and a certain ability to cut forward and grab points in the front court, which can be said to be very good. However, the ability to break through has always been the shortcoming of Japanese football with poor physical fitness, and there are very few players with sufficient ability in this regard, especially among the players in Europe, there are almost no players who have a foothold on this, a group of organizers, but no one has done the most important breakthrough work, and they have played an embarrassing mess.

In this case, it may be better if you can use someone with good breakthrough ability among the local players to rush up, but several Japanese players in Europe are all treasures, and the coach does not dare to drop them at will, and several midfielders are all European players, who dares to let Manchester United players play as substitutes?

And such a result, naturally, the Japanese team could not break through. If it's a home game, they can also try to use the wing to cut forward, open the width, and try to score a goal, but in an away game, they are not familiar enough with the field, and they can't even play such a tactic, so if they want to break through, where is it so easy?

They are good at passing, but no one can break through and tear up the defense, so what's the use of the best passing? They can move forward, but they don't even have a bridgehead in front of them, how can Shadow Feng play? They can organize, but the Chinese team is suffocating in the backfield, that is, they are dead or alive, what can be done to organize it? Faced with this situation, there is no way for anyone to come.

Standing on the court and looking at Keisuke Honda, Shinji Kagawa wanted to say something, but in the end, he just sighed. There are some things he knows are useless, and they are not important games, and he doesn't bother to ask to play in the middle anymore.

"Now the defense is doing a good job, and the Japanese attack is in vain. Keisuke Honda said in an interview before the game that the Chinese team has been playing well recently, but it is just good luck - if so, his luck seems to be really, very bad. Because if this continues, the chances of the Chinese team winning will be greatly enhanced, and this game can really be won, and our luck is really good. ”

Watching the Japanese team's breakthrough failure, the commentator of the Chinese team also spoke excitedly, such a scene has appeared many times in the entire first half, and now that such a problem occurs again, the commentator is also quite happy.

At the end of the first half, they were all worried that the Chinese team's 1-0 situation could be overturned by the opponent, but now it seems that there is no need to worry about this for the time being. The Chinese team's defense has not had too many problems so far, although the opponent's players are good, but they are helpless against the Chinese team.

The game is getting more and more reassuring, the second half has already begun, and this kind of game is still going on, and the Japanese team has always been attacking fruitlessly, which is quite gratifying. What's even happier is that it can be seen that the Japanese players are also a little impetuous.

The frontcourt players of the Japanese team have not been able to make too good breakthroughs, and the players in the backfield are also moving forward at this time, and their defense has also revealed some flaws in the backcourt, which is just for the Chinese team to try to take advantage of.

As the commentator expected, soon, the Chinese team's counterattack also began. The players of the Chinese team who got the ball did not attack immediately, Feng Xiaoting gave the ball to Rong Hao, and Rong Hao ran forward with the ball a few steps, saw that he had no chance, and gave a kick to Zheng Zhi in the middle.

As the hub of the team, Zheng Zhi's task on the court is still the heaviest one. After getting the ball, he walked slowly forward with the ball, looking up at the movement of his teammates around him, and also looking for opportunities. He knows that it will not be easy for him to continue to make breakthroughs in the middle, and he prefers to rely on his teammates to accomplish this task compared to his own breakthroughs.

It's just that it's not easy to accomplish this step. The players of the Chinese team are not as strong as the Japanese team, and the Japanese team is weak to break through, but on the Chinese team's side, whether it is a breakthrough or a pass, it is not very good, even if it is facing a more open defensive line, you have to pay more careful attention, otherwise, Zhang Linpeng's pass out of the bottom line just now is the worst example.

He took the ball and approached the backcourt step by step, and in front of him, Makoto Hasebe had already stopped him. Carefully observing the opponent's position, Zheng Zhi also found an opportunity at this time, and his pass kicked the ball out suddenly!

"Gao Lin! Gao Lin got the ball! Gao Lin was breaking through, and Gao Lin rushed to the forbidden area! ”

As if a new continent had been discovered, the narrator's voice suddenly became excited. The Chinese team did not waste the opportunity, Gao Lin seized the rare opportunity, and now, they have another chance! (To be continued.) )
