Chapter 1221 - An Incomprehensible Substitution

Eighty minutes into the game, the two sides were much more cautious than the previous fast-paced game, after all, at this stage of the game, no one could afford to concede a goal.

If a goal is conceded, there is a good chance that nothing will change the result, which means that the title will never be won again.

However, the atmosphere of the final at the Maracanã Stadium has not changed, and the enthusiasm of the fans is still high, and the cheers are higher and higher.

Especially the Chinese fans who have the advantage in numbers, as long as the Chinese team is in possession of the ball, there will be a huge cheer in the sky, and the Chinese team's attack did not live up to the expectations of the fans, but it is a little pity that the football shot by Ailo grazed the outside edge of the right post of the goal and flew out of the bottom line.

With Chen Tao's play, the Chinese team's offense has changed substantially, and his technical characteristics are very different from Zhang Xizhe's, the former belongs to the ancient typical front midfield, strong ball control, and can pass the ball outstandingly, while the latter has stronger dribbling ability and scoring ability, and belongs to the modern forward midfield.

Chen Tao's template is Riquelme, while Zhang Xizhe's template is Kaka.

Because the Chinese team that sent one person off is at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, many times it is in the defensive stage, and from another point of view, the Chinese team has quite a lot of room for counterattack.

At this time, the test is more about the counterattack ability of the defensive team, and the counterattack considers the pass success rate.

From a technical point of view, Zhang Xizhe's scoring ability is strong, and the passing is slightly weaker, especially the long-distance pass, compared with the double back combination Huang Bowen and Wu Xi have a certain gap, the Chinese team's set-piece that overtook the score is the long pass of the back waist, and Ailo drove straight into the ball after winning the ball, causing Mascherano to have to choose to foul.

However, when the team is in the defensive stage, it is difficult for the double back to get the space to pass forward, so the responsibility of passing the ball naturally falls on the forward midfielder Zhang Xizhe.

But Zhang Xizhe's ability to plug directly is not very prominent, and the two sides in the final are not very prominent with 11 against 11, but it is quite obvious when the number is at a disadvantage.

Ailo can attract the defensive attention of at least three Argentine players at the front, but he can't get the ball at his feet, which means that most of the threat is missing.

CCTV commentator Huang Jianxiang was excited, and said excitedly: "At this time in the game, I have to admit that Guardiola is a rare master of tactics on the planet, the team can stabilize the situation by only adjusting the position of the player in the case of sending off one person, and the subsequent targeted substitution effect is more obvious, and the success rate of the forward attack is higher......

The Spanish national television commentator said: "I think the Spanish Football Federation should sign Josep after his contract with the Chinese team expires, Bosque's tactics are outdated, otherwise...... We wouldn't have taken a flight back home so early. ”

At this time, the Spanish fans sitting in front of the TV unconditionally supported the commentator's point of view, after all, the 2008 and 2012 European Championship winners and the 2010 World Cup winners Spain did not make it to the final stage of the World Cup, which was directly related to the manager's tactical backwardness.

It's like someone else interprets your tactics to the extreme, and you don't make changes, and the result is ...... It goes without saying.

The Chinese team only made one position adjustment to move the game in another direction, which annoyed Savilla, who are also world-class stars, why is there such a big gap?

At this time, Messi, who had been hidden for a long time, suddenly exerted his strength.

In the 82nd minute, he connected Chen Tao, Wu Xi and Jiang Zhipeng in the "Messi Corridor", and then rushed to Feng Xiaoting to block before the front of the penalty area suddenly shot a cold arrow, the football drew a beautiful arc in mid-air and went straight to the upper left corner of the goal, if it weren't for Wang Xiaolei's attention, I saw him point to the ground with his right foot, his body rose in the air, and the ball was lifted up with one palm, and the football was high above the crossbar......

Half a minute later, it's Messi again!

He received Aguero's return ball on the line of the penalty area and chose to shoot directly without stopping, this time Wang Xiaolei's reaction did not touch the football, but the football also deviated from the right post of the goal.

"―Whoa!!"

The Argentine fans in the stands were in high spirits when they saw Messi's sudden outburst, and they continued to erupt into tsunami-like cheers, wave after wave.

As the hottest star on the planet, Iello certainly won't turn a blind eye, and then he used a long-range shot to sound the alarm for Argentina's backline in a wave of Chinese attacks.

As time went on, the atmosphere of the finals in the stands became more and more frenetic.

Naturally, the Chinese fans, who are superior in numbers, can't watch the Argentine fans so presumptuous, and they once again made the Maracanã Stadium boil up when Iello exerted his strength, as if adding fuel to the fire.

At this point, the players on both sides of the pitch began to become cautious.

After all, at this time, no one wants to concede a goal, because losing a goal means missing out on the championship.

As the minutes ticked by, less than half a minute was left before the end of the 90 minutes of regular time, and the scoreboard was still stuck at 2:2

If it weren't for the red card that appeared on the broadcast screen, it would not be possible to see that the Chinese team has one less person than the Argentine team, and even more than the Argentine team in terms of local positions.

At this time, the on-site director gave the camera to the fourth official standing at the edge of the center line, and his electronic card holding up three minutes of injury time was particularly eye-catching, but what was even more eye-catching was Wu Lei standing next to the fourth official.

Finally, the Chinese team is going to make the second substitution adjustment of this game!

At this time, many experts in the football world began to speculate, who was replaced?

If you look at it from the position alone, Guardiola's adjustment is definitely aimed at the attacking line.

But when there was a dead ball and the fourth official held up the substitution card, the so-called experts realized that they had guessed wrong......

Because Guardiola's adjustment this time is to replace a defensive-biased Huang Bowen.

Seeing this adjustment, Huang Jianxiang was a little depressed: "I admit that Guardiola is a master tactician, and in the case of the team penalizing one person, it is easy to resolve the problem of a small number of players just by relying on the position adjustment of the players, but now after all, there is one less person on the field, and Wu Lei, who has a strong offensive ability, replaces the defender Huang Bowen, is it a bit impatient?" ”

According to everyone's conventional understanding, this is indeed the case.

Replaced by Wu Lei, the Chinese team's offensive players are as high as four.

But the problem is that the Chinese team is now playing one less, and counting Wu Xi, who has certain offensive attributes, there are only four full-time defensive players left, and Hao Junmin's professional position is still a winger.

But...... When the Chinese team stood in a good position, all the problems were solved.
