Chapter 332: Run-in

The top 10 in Asia will be divided into two groups! After two legs of round-robin home and away matches, the top two teams from each group qualify directly for the World Cup finals in South Africa. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The third-placed teams will play a two-legged home-and-away play-off between the two groups, with the winner competing with the winner of Oceania for a ticket to the World Cup finals in South Africa.

China have been drawn in Group A, along with Australia, Japan, Uzbekistan and Bahrain.

Looking at the history of the Chinese team and the teams in the same group, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Chinese team is the weakest in Group A.

However, after the Olympic gold medal and the strong promotion in the top 20, no opponent in the same group thinks that the Chinese team is a fish belly.

Even the Chinese players themselves don't think they're a belly team right now, with the exception of Shi Liansheng.

Therefore, before the game, Shi Liansheng repeatedly emphasized that any game in the top 10 should be taken seriously.

In the first round of Group A, Japan challenged Bahrain away, and China hosted Uzbekistan. Australia has a bye this round.

This is the first time that the Chinese team has entered the top 10 after the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup, and in order to be able to achieve the first victory, Shi Liansheng has the strongest lineup in his hands.

Goalkeeper Yang Zhi, left wingback Sun Xiang, right wingback Sun Jihai, central defenders Du Wei and Feng Xiaoting partnered. In the midfield, Yu Liang and Zhao Junzhe dragged behind, Zheng Zhi rushed forward, and Shao Jiayi and Wen Feng were separated on both sides. Single striker Dong Wang is at the front.

The midfield was luxurious, and when the players came out, the fans gave them the warmest cheers.

However, this strongest lineup that Shi Liansheng considered fell into a rather embarrassing situation after the game began.

The Chinese team, which has a luxurious midfield configuration, frequently makes low-level mistakes in passing and receiving the ball in the frontcourt.

"Damn! Is this still the Chinese team that killed God and Buddha in the top 20 matches? ”

The fans were dumbfounded.

The Chinese team in front of him, which is composed of most overseas players, performed so badly.

Fortunately, the defensive system of this Chinese team is relatively stable.

The midfield barrier created by Yu Liang and Zhao Junzhe has protected the team's backline well.

The team's performance was as expected by Shi Liansheng.

The Top 20 tournament does not recruit overseas players, but hopes to leave opportunities for domestic players and young players, so that they can feel the atmosphere of the tournament and accumulate experience. The purpose of recruiting overseas players in the top 10 is not only to simply improve the strength of the team, but more importantly, Shi Liansheng hopes to run in the national team through the top 10 matches, and then let the national team go to South Africa in the best condition.

It stands to reason that most of the players who are now playing overseas are former national team veterans, who have played together for many years, and they are no strangers to each other. But I didn't expect that now they still have the problem of running-in.

"Isn't this the way to go?"

Watching Uzbekistan's wave after wave of attack, the team's assistant coach Gao Jun walked to Shi Liansheng's side with a worried face.

Of course, he was clear about Shi Liansheng's plan, and he opposed it at first, but the main reason for his opposition was that he was afraid that the national team would lose the opportunity to advance to the top 10. Now that he has come to the top 10, all the overseas players have been recruited, so he naturally has no objection! But seeing the players in such a state, he was also worried, and walked to Shi Liansheng's side and immediately suggested: "Take it back and fight back!" ”

If you take it back and fight back, can it still have the effect of running-in?

Shi Liansheng shook his head and rejected Gao Jun's proposal.

"Let them figure this out on their own!"

After speaking, Shi Liansheng turned around directly and returned to the bench, and the old god sat down.

Gao Jun looked at Shi Liansheng as if he was fine, frowned and glanced at the field, then turned around and sat down on the bench. However, unlike Shi Liansheng's indifferent expression, Gao Jun's face was still full of worry.

The Chinese team's attack in the front court was not smooth, giving Uzbekistan a good opportunity to counterattack. The continuous attacks have impacted the Chinese team's defense again and again.

Yu Liang and Zhao Junzhe have become the busiest people on the field of the Chinese team, and the only way to change this situation is to suppress the opponent on offense.

Yu Liang, who completed the steal in the backcourt, immediately handed the ball to Zhao Junzhe, and then stepped forward.

The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.

Maybe King Dong didn't feel that there was much wrong with them, but Zhao Junzhe and Yu Liang in the backcourt could see it clearly.

So Zhao Junzhe and Yu Liang discussed that one person would step forward to help organize the attack, and the other person would drag back to defend.

Yu Liang meant to ask Zhao Junzhe to step forward into the organization and stay behind to defend, after all, Zhao Junzhe is the captain, and the qualifications are there, Yu Liang is embarrassed to ask others to do dirty work. However, Zhao Junzhe didn't care, but let Yu Liang step forward to participate in the offensive organization, the reason is very simple, he is old, and he will consume a lot of physical energy.

Helplessly, Yu Liang could only accept Zhao Junzhe's arrangement.

Yu Liang, who received the order to step forward, quickly received a pass from Zhao Junzhe, and lightly blocked the outside of his left foot, and after avoiding the Uzbekistan's press, he continued to dribble forward.

After coming to the frontcourt, Yu Liang immediately passed the ball to Zheng Zhi.

Zheng Zhi is a good player, a great playmaker, and this has been fully proven both in the domestic arena and in the Premier League and Championship.

As a good playmaker, Zheng Zhi needs the ball.

But he also knows how bad the attack has been, and of course it's not that he's a playmaker with a problem, it's that all the players up front of them have a problem with each other.

Run-in is a problem that every brand new team needs to face. Obviously, this is also the problem that this Chinese team needs to face.

Zheng Zhi received Yu Liang's pass, did not dribble the ball, and saw Yu Liang continuing to insert forward, his slightly frowning brows immediately relaxed, and then slashed his foot.

Just as Yu Liang rushed behind a defender, the ball just rolled to Yu Liang's feet, a perfect two-by-one.

Compared with Zheng Zhi, Yu Liang is more familiar with some of his teammates in the front court, at least there will be no tacit understanding between him and King Dong and Wen Wei.

When Yu Liang and Zheng Zhier passed one, the style of writing on the right immediately stopped the pace of the front, and King Dong, who had been pressing forward, also turned around and retreated. After Yu Liang took two steps, he directly passed to King Dong, and at this time, the style of the side suddenly started to intervene. King Dong pushed the arch of his foot, and after passing back to Yu Liang, he turned around and stepped forward.

There is a lot of cooperation between Yu Liang and King Dong, and the players from Uzbekistan obviously know this, and when King Dong turns and steps forward, they immediately tighten their defense.

After Yu Liang stopped the ball with his right foot, he gently swung his left foot and rubbed the ball to the right side.

Rumble!

There was an immediate burst of cheers in the stadium.

The Uzbek players focused on King Dong in the box, ignoring the style of cutting forward on the wing.

After the unguarded Wen Feng unloaded Yu Liang's pass, he directly cut into the penalty area with the ball laterally.

Wen Feng cut into the penalty area, which did cause panic among the Uzbek players.

But it was only for a moment.

Soon they had a clear division of labor to start defense, two players in the penalty area stared at King Dong tightly, two players at the front of the penalty area cruising in front of Yu Liang and Zheng Zhi, and one player went to defend Wenfeng.

Yu Liang watched a player from Uzbekistan go to defend Wen Feng, and immediately ran towards the right side of the front of the penalty area, looking like he was going to pick up Wen Feng. The Uzbek player in front of him did not dare to be careless and immediately followed.

The style of writing is not something that ordinary people can stop, even in a forbidden area with a small space.

Facing the defender in front of him, after two consecutive cycles, Wenfeng's right foot moved again, and his toes made a circle above the football again.

"Feint!" The defender looked at Wen Feng's movements, and shook his head in his heart, such a pediatric feint had no effect in front of him.

Perhaps Wen Feng felt the contempt of the opposing player, and with a slight rub of the outside instep, the football rolled directly past the defender. At the same time, Wen Feng quickly rushed past the defenders.

By the time the defenders reacted, Wen Feng had already thrown off half of his body.

After easily breaking through the defense, one of the players defending Dong King immediately met him.

At this moment, Wen Feng changed direction and dribbled towards the front of the penalty area, and the players who defended it followed closely behind Wen Feng.

After widening the distance between the goal and the goal, Wen Feng changed direction again and looked at the goalkeeper's position, and then changed direction again to pass the ball to the unguarded area on the right side of the penalty area.

When the style of writing broke through with the ball, Yu Liang was also interspersed with running. When Wen Feng rushed to the front of the penalty area with the ball, Yu Liang had already pulled to the side, and the back who had been marking Yu Liang did not follow Yu Liang to the side, but focused on Wen Feng's body. So Yu Liang was able to quietly come to the gap on the right side of the penalty area.

After receiving a pass from Wen Feng, Yu Liang pushed the arch of his foot very simple and passed it to King Dong.

King Dong, who carried the pressure from behind the opposing player, faced Yu Liang's pass, and only pushed with a light arch of his foot, and the football immediately changed direction and rolled towards the goal of the Uzbekistan team. (To be continued.) )
