Liu Chunming looked at the tall and muscular appearance of the Swedish team members, and he was a little stunned in his heart, so although he felt that it was a bit risky to temporarily change his playing style, he still gritted his teeth and agreed. As a result, the game was played and the team's operation was very smooth, and it was relieved to think about it, after all, 7 of the 11 main players were from the Eastern team!
The players of the Swedish team feel very uncomfortable, as soon as they get the ball, two or even three Chinese players rush up to surround them, with their rough ball control skills and slower action frequency, they will lose the ball if they are not careful, and even if they want to play the traditional long pass rushing is not easy, because the opponent's formation is too forward, and the direct long pass to find the striker is not only easy to form offside, and even if it is successfully passed and received by the striker, it cannot immediately threaten the opponent's goal, and it must be brought forward more than ten meters to enter the danger area, Although the opponent's defensive core is very tall, his feet are quite flexible, his recovery is also quite fast, and he is quite accurate in his tackles, and with him as the last gate of the defensive line, the Swedish team is really not easy to surpass (Note 1)
What's worse is that the Swedish team has very few offensive opportunities, because the ball is controlled at the feet of the Chinese team most of the time, if there is no good opportunity, it is better to repeatedly fall in the backfield, this slow and leisurely style of play in the frenzied brush their own possession rate at the same time, it is also natural to reduce the time of the Swedish team to hold the ball, and the Swedish team's offensive opportunities are naturally greatly reduced.
Originally, the Swedish team also hoped that the fierce frontcourt pressing of Tong Guò would make the Chinese team's defenders busy and make mistakes, but it had no effect at all, and instead wasted their body in vain. However, it is no wonder that the two full-backs do not need to say much, as for Feng Xiaoting, who is lagging behind, his skills are even better than most of the attacking players of the Chinese youth team (Note 2), and there is no pressure on him to simply fall in the back
Although the pseudo-Barcelona style of play of the youth team is still in the stage of possession for the sake of possession, the most lethal sudden mention of Barcelona's style of play is basically impossible to play, but just the excellent flexibility and good skills of several frontcourt players in the youth team are enough to make them generally inflexible because of their tall stature (this can be overcome by long-term specialized training, but with the current average age of the Swedish youth team, it is impossible to do it unless it is a genius like Ibrahimovic). The Swedes were miserable.
It is also worth mentioning that considering Yu Hai's tall stature, Gao Jun specially asked Rong Hao to insert more assists, and Yu Hai frequently retreated to supplement his defense, so as to enhance the ability of the youth team to defend high-altitude balls on the one hand, and on the other hand, fully swing Rong Hao's technical characteristics of being flexible, dribbling well, and fast ball.
However, in the end, it was Artemisia Junmin on the right side who decided the outcome of the game, in the face of the tall Swedish defender, Artemisia Junmin's first dribbling kung fu in the team was vividly swayed, and only in the first half of the 4o minutes he got rid of the marking many times to send high-quality crosses, and although the Swedes also imitated the Turkish team's "2+1" defensive strategy, but they were too tall to prevent the short and flexible and fast start of the Gao Jun, stunned by its escape from the defense and successfully grabbed the point to score two goals, if it were not for the left side of Rong Hao's shooting is terrible, Three great chances were wasted, and the game was completely out of suspense
The two-goal deficit was not enough for Sweden to give up early, and they seized a free-kick in front of the second half and used high-altitude bombing to knock on the goal of the youth team to make the score 1:2. Gao Jun can only sigh in vain, if it is in a sports battle, the opponent's height advantage can also be limited by guò tactics, but when defending set-pieces, the height is generally shorter, especially the mainstay of the defense Feng Xiaoting and goalkeeper Zeng Cheng have exposed poor defense of high-altitude balls in the game (Feng Xiaoting is a lack of strength bounce, and Zeng Cheng is a poor judgment of the landing point of high-altitude balls. It's really blind to their good height.
Fortunately, not long after, Hao Junmin broke through the net with a powerful long-range shot at the edge of the penalty area, expanding the score to 3:1, completely crushing the fighting spirit of the Swedish team (mainly because the game is coming to an end at this time, it is still possible to score 1 goal, and it is too difficult to score 2 goals. Otherwise, the final result is really hard to say.
In any case, the youth team finally defeated Sweden to advance to the final, and the opponent in the final was the host France team that had been defeated in the group stage, so everyone was generally full of confidence, but not long after the game started, the youth team fell into passivity, the reason is very simple, with the connivance of the referee, the players of the French team played very roughly, which made the Chinese youth team who were already afraid of physical confrontation very uncomfortable.
Objectively speaking, the referee at this time is not a black whistle, but he uses the penalty scale of the French professional league to blow a youth game like the Toulon Cup, which is undoubtedly a disguised favoritism, because the physical weight of the players of the Chinese team is generally much worse than that of the French team, and they suffer very much under this loose scale.
It was only 3 minutes into the game, and Artemisia Junmin, who broke through with the ball, was knocked to the ground by a French player with the ball, but the referee signaled the game to continue, Artemisia Junmin couldn't help but reason with the referee, but immediately ate a yellow card.
In the 11th minute, the French team attacked the front of the Chinese team's penalty area, and Cui Peng made a small movement in his hand, and the French player who took the ball immediately fell to the ground with an exaggerated expression, and the referee immediately ran over to give the French team a free kick in front of the field, and showed Cui Peng a yellow card
After Zeng Cheng, who was in good form today, saved the opponent's free kick, Gao Jun took advantage of the short dead-ball opportunity to say to his teammates, "This referee gave a light sentence to a potentially hurtful action and a heavy sentence to a tactical foul to block the attack, so everyone should pay attention." ”
Note 1: Feng Xiaoting in 2oo4 has the strength of a world-class central defender in his age group, and he was in the best team in the 2oo5 World Youth Championships in the Netherlands, although he is likely to change his age, and he is more than a year or two old
Note 2: Feng Xiaoting's skills when he was young were extremely comprehensive, as a central defender, his dribbling skills can even be compared with a winger, but unfortunately he was ruined by injuries in history, unlike Yu Hai, who was ruined by consecutive major injuries, Feng Xiaoting did not have any particularly serious injuries, but the problem is that he has to be injured several times a year, although he has not been abolished, but his growth is therefore strictly limited, and he can only become the best central defender in China in the end, and this statement is not completely convincing to the public
