The players of the Spring City team felt awkward because of the shrinking defense of the Puhe Ruby team, and at the same time, the players of the Puhe Ruby team were not much more comfortable than the players of the Spring City team.

They also play very awkwardly, with the Kamagawa Rubies being a team that has always been good at attacking, and they rarely adopt a full-fledged defensive strategy in the game, even against their old rivals in the J-League, Gamba Osaka.

It was arguably the most conservative game ever played by the Puhe Rubies, with almost all of their players staying in their own half and participating in the team's defense.

This in itself has made the Puhe Ruby players very uncomfortable, and the Quancheng team's attacking power under the double back formation is extremely limited, which makes most of the Puhe Ruby players also have a feeling of doing nothing on the field.

Their head coach's pre-match order to every player was to defend and defend against all odds!

But who are they going to defend on the field?

If it's defense, you have to have a defensive goal. There are only three players involved in the attack of the Quancheng team, Luo Ming Lu Fei and Lin Qi, while the Puhe Ruby team has 11 defensive players, even if the goalkeeper is excluded, the Puhe Ruby team still has seven more offensive players than the Quancheng team.

This is a typical wolf with more meat and less meat, and those Puhe Ruby players who don't have much defensive experience in ordinary games have completely become spectators on the court.

They want to be actively involved in the game, but whenever they want to defend one of the Springs' offensive players. You will always find two or three teammates standing next to this player.

How happy is this for them to play, they are not good at defense, and now there are more wolves and less meat, these Puhe Ruby players who used to attack in the game have no room to play.

They also thought about trying to threaten the goal of the Spring City team, but before the game, their head coach had already given a dead order, that is, they would rather not attack, and not let the Spring City team find any chance to score!

They also don't dare to attack, in case they are seized by the Quancheng team when they attack, then won't they have to take the blame after the game? The players of the Puhe Rubies are not so stupid, they are offensive players. If you can't defend the attack of the Spring City team, you will be blamed. That's really wronged......

Therefore, although most of the players of the Puhe Ruby team were idle on the field, they did not dare to rashly attack the goal of the Quancheng team.

Without the attack of the Puhe Rubys, there would be no defense of the Quancheng team. As a result, the defenders of the Spring City team and the offensive players of the Puhe Ruby team could only stare on the court, and they really couldn't find any use in this game......

Relatively speaking, though. The players of the Puhe Rubies are a little better than the players of the Spring City team. At the very least, they were involved in the team's defense. At best, they act as a wall, but they still feel like they're a bit involved in the game.

The Springs defenders were miserable, they didn't have any chance to defend. They rarely participate in the attack, and the most Xu Zhen and Chen Biao did in this game was to wait for the football to fall to the backfield of the Quancheng team, and then drive it back with a big foot......

The game turned into a three-man rotation between Lin Qi and Lu Fei Luoming, and both the offense of the Quancheng team and the defense of the Puhe Ruby team revolved around these three people.

The three of them have also become the most tired players on the court, Lu Fei and Luo Ming almost never stopped running, even if they lost the ball, they would fight hard to actively scramble.

And Lin Qi is not to mention, his enthusiasm in the game is difficult for anyone to match.

Lin Qi and the three of them were looking for an opportunity to break the goal of the Puhe Ruby team, but the defenders of the Puhe Ruby team were too dense, and they couldn't hold the ball in the front court at all. Don't look at the Quancheng team is the main attacking side, but the situation on the field is that the Puhe Ruby team has the advantage of possession.

The Puhe Ruby team themselves are very good at controlling the ball, and in the case of only facing Lin Qi's three presses, their possession rate is even higher, reaching nearly 70%.

However, with nearly 70 per cent possession, the Puhe Rubies did not have a single shot on goal in the first 20 minutes of the game.

It wasn't until the twenty-two minutes of the game that the Puhe Ruby team pushed forward as a whole and launched an attempted attack. Needless to say, they also knew that their attempted attack must have failed, with Xu Zhen and Chen Biao in the backcourt, the Puhe Ruby team couldn't find any chance at all.

In the end, Masahiro Fukuda could only helplessly shoot from more than 30 meters away from the goal, and the football flew high off the crossbar......

The Puhe Rubies' first attack of the game came to an end and they couldn't find a chance to threaten the Spring City goal. After finishing the shot, the Puhe Ruby team quickly retreated and once again set up their bucket formation.

In this game, both the Quancheng team and the Puhe Ruby team pay more attention to their defense, and a game where both teams pay more attention to defense will definitely be very unsightly.

As a result, many of the "fans" who followed the game because they were involved in betting sat in front of the TV and fell asleep, and the game was so boring that they couldn't find any fun in the TV broadcast.

The fans of the two teams at the scene also sat there bored, shouting for more than 20 minutes, and still did not see any improvement in the game, and the fans of the two teams were too lazy to create an atmosphere.

Even the logo of the Puhe Rubys, their banner, has stopped waving. It is very physically demanding to wave such a huge flag of the Puhe Ruby team, and if the game is played very passionately, maybe the fans of the Puhe Ruby team will be more motivated, and when the game is so boring, they can only put the huge flag aside.

Whether on the pitch or in the stands, the game was in a very boring state. The players didn't know what to do on the pitch, and the fans lost their passion for shouting and cheering because of the players' poor performance.

Only the reporters in the media gallery were still chattering and complaining, complaining that the game was so ugly, even in the final of the AFC Champions League, it is difficult to see such an ugly game.

Generally speaking, the more important the game, the more ugly the two opposing teams will play. And this game is obviously so important to both teams that they can successfully knock out their opponents, and they played this eye-catching AFC Champions League semi-final into the most ugly game in the history of the AFC Champions League!

Yes, it's the ugliest game! Although the game has not yet reached 30 minutes, the media reporters have already identified this game as the most ugly game in the history of the AFC Champions League, and there is no one!

The whole process of the game was not alarming, except for Lin Qi, Luo Ming and Lu Fei, who seemed to be playing a game, the other players were more like they were traveling.

They didn't contribute anything to the excitement of the game!

Reporters also pointed the finger at the Quancheng team, and they felt that the Quancheng team was the culprit who caused this game so embarrassing.

"What kind of double back does the Quancheng team play, they are already one goal behind in the total score, and they still want to use the formation of double back to play defensive counterattacks, how can the Puhe Ruby team give them such an opportunity......"

"Yes, if it weren't for the Quancheng team sending a double-back formation, the Puhe Ruby team would definitely not play so conservatively, and I think the Puhe Ruby players on the field must have played very aggrieved......"

"Are they aggrieved? Can they suffocate the players of the Spring City team? The double-back formation of the Quancheng team is the nemesis of the Puhe Ruby team, but the Puhe Ruby actually put up an iron bucket formation, which makes the players of the Quancheng team how to play. There are also reporters who speak for the Spring City team, and they feel that the Puhe Ruby team's tactics in this game are simply cheating.

However, if the Quancheng team can win the Puhe Ruby in the away game, then even if the Quancheng team uses a double-back formation in this game, the Puhe Ruby team will not choose such a conservative style of play.

The most fundamental reason is still on the Quancheng team...... The blame was that they were too conservative in the first leg of the game, resulting in a loss to Puhe Ruby, which gave the Puhe Ruby team a chance to defend with all their strength in this game. (To be continued......)
