After seeing the person who took the free kick, He Wei immediately questioned, "Yu Hai stood in front of the ball, this is a bit unexpected, he is a left-footed general, and his skills are quite good, but there are really not many examples of free kicks in my memory, and he is such a big man and a good header, he doesn't go to the front to grab points, but comes to grab the work of taking free kicks, isn't this picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons?" ”
"This is also a helpless thing, this free kick is closer to the goal, and the threat of playing with the goal is not as great as the direct shot, but the national team is also a little threatening with Yu Hai and my left-footed free kick", but Gao Jun on the field naturally knows the reason, because the free kick in this position even if he chooses to play with the header opportunity, it will basically be a low-altitude header such as rushing to the top, Yu Hai's height not only can not gain an advantage, but will suffer because of the relatively poor flexibility, and if the penalty taker chooses to shoot directly, Someone needs to be prepared to follow up and shoot, and Yu Hai can't compare to Gao Jun in this regard, so letting Yu Hai take the free kick this time is actually the best choice after considering all aspects.
But don't underestimate Yu Hai's free kick footwork, although he has not used it much in actual combat, he has been practicing his free kick skills hard, hoping to have the opportunity to become the secret weapon of the Chinese team one day. Now that the opportunity has finally come, Yu Hai took a deep breath, controlled the excitement in his heart, and then began to run
"Oh! Okay, the ball is in! Yu Hai's shot broke through the ten fingers of the French goalkeeper Lloris and helped the Chinese team take the lead, and now the score on the field is 1:0! ”。 After He Wei's excited explanation, he saw the slow-motion replay, and hurriedly added, "Uh, it should have hit the human wall and produced a broken line, poor Lloris, lost a balloon, but even if it is a balloon." It was also because of Yu Hai's hard work that he could score, if he didn't have the courage to shoot by himself just now, then there would be no such goal."
"That's right, Yu Hai's goal deserves a round of applause. And if you take into account the process of this free kick, it cannot be said that the Chinese team took the lead just because of luck. Guest Xu Yang also agreed with his partner's words, "What's more, no matter how lucky this goal is, its importance is beyond doubt." Although the current one-goal lead of the national football team against a strong French team is not enough to reassure us, at least we have seen the hope of victory, and everyone has now seen that the French team's supposedly impregnable backline does not seem to be as strong as we originally thought"
Compared with the two commentators in the studio, the Chinese fans and the coaches and players of the national football team were even more excited, and Hiddink, who is over seventy years old, was even more "an old man chatting about juvenile madness", raising his arms and shouting and rushing into the stadium to celebrate with his disciples. One can't help but worry about whether he will suddenly have a cardiovascular outbreak. However, Hiddink's excitement is understandable, although he is recognized as a first-class coach in the world. And whether it is with the club or the national team, there are excellent results, but Hiddink has never been able to lead the team to the final of the World Cup, and the highest can only reach the semi-finals, so that many people say that he can only "help the weak" with the national team, and now he finally sees the hope of fulfilling his long-cherished wish, how can he not be excited?
But. Hiddink did not underestimate the strength of the French team because the Chinese team scored first, on the contrary, he immediately issued instructions to the field after the celebration to further strengthen the team's defense. At Hiddink's request, the Chinese team's on-court formation was quickly adjusted to a more defensive-oriented 361. Xie Wenjun was left alone as the arrow of the counterattack, and such a conservative style of play made the French team, which is relatively not very good at positional attack, very headache, but also worried the supporters of the Chinese team
"It's always dangerous to be so conservative to be ahead of one goal, and it's the least safe to have a one-goal lead." , He Wei said with some concern, "Especially the Chinese players have always had a bad psychological quality, under such huge pressure, can they hold the one-goal lead?" ”
Guest Xu Yang was also worried at first, but after carefully observing the Chinese team's on-field formation, a smile appeared on his face again, "He Wei, don't worry too much, Hiddink didn't want to hold on to this one-goal lead, he didn't give up attacking at all"
"What do you mean by that?" , although asking such a question would expose his ignorance, He Wei obviously didn't have time to think so much at this time.
Xu Yang smiled lightly, pointed to the scene in the middle of the field on the big screen and explained, "You see, our two wingers have been recycled, but our midfield line has not taken half a step back!" Clearly, Hiddink's change of formation was only about strengthening the midfield defence, not just trying to hold on to the point. Compared with the dense defense of the turtle backfield, concentrating the center of gravity on the midfield will give the opponent more attacking space, but once the midfield breaks the ball, there is a great possibility to form a quick counterattack opportunity, unlike when the turtle shrinks back court, there is often a situation of being pressed and beaten by the opponent but unable to fight back."
Hearing his partner say this, He Wei breathed a sigh of relief, but began to worry that the adjustment of just retracting the two wingers was not enough to resist the obviously strengthened offensive of the French team. However, the performance of the international players on the field quickly reassured him, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this really the national football team that has never been completely reassuring at the back?" In the face of the world's top team like the French team, it is really commendable to have such a performance! It's been more than 30 minutes and France haven't had a single chance to score."
In fact, it was not only He Wei who was surprised, even the Chinese internationals on the field were surprised by their outstanding performance, and Gao Jun, as the leader of the national football team, finally understood why Hiddink wanted the national football team to play around him. Therefore, it is easier to defend well when using star tactics, as was the case with Argentina during the Maradona era, and the same is true for Argentina in the last World Cup, which played entirely around Messi
"I remember, the defensive players of the Argentine team in the World Cup in Brazil are not particularly good in terms of fame and personal ability, but their defense is the best in that World Cup, because the tactics are simple and more stable, and they are not prone to accidents? Moreover, the Chinese mind is too flexible, and the players are easy to have unnecessary distractions on the field, rather than thinking about their own ideas, it is better to establish a leader who can convince the public, let him command, and others just follow suit", Gao Jun thought of this, and finally suddenly became enlightened. Speaking of which, the current Gao Jun is the only outlier in the Chinese team on the field, everyone else can think less, but he has to think more, and the psychological baggage thrown away by others has also pressed on Gao Jun's heart. However, as the leader of the team, such a heavy responsibility is obviously unavoidable, and Gao Jun, who has been in two lives and has experienced a hundred battles, is also fully capable of taking on it!
"That's amazing! With the uneven staffing of the Chinese team's midfield and backfield, it can be defended so tightly. Is it because with a leader like Gao, each of them is clear about their responsibilities and is closely united as a whole? Even Corne, who is an opponent, can't help but sigh like this, but this guy who once almost didn't have a chance to become a professional player is also unwilling to admit defeat, he has been carefully observing his opponent, trying to find weaknesses that can be exploited, after many tests, Corne's eyes suddenly lit up, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face, "It's this kid!" ”
Among the three backs in the Chinese team's formation, Wang Jiayu can only be mainly responsible for attacking because of his mediocre physical fitness, and his responsibilities on the field are similar to those of Pirlo back then, so the other two backs must provide him with enough support and must be defensive backs. Among them, Cai Huikang, who is now almost 29 years old, does not have any special talent, except for physical fitness and body, but after so many years of hard work and hard work, he has grown into the most reassuring defensive midfielder in the national football team. However, as the influence of the dark ages is becoming more and more apparent, the other main defensive midfielder of the Chinese team has never been particularly reassuring
Now Wu Xi, who is now the top back player in China, is not weak, but his characteristics do not meet the requirements, it sounds good to have both offense and defense, in fact, it is an alternative back back that is inserted to outflank the goal to eat, if he becomes one of the three back waists, then the three back waists of the Chinese team will be double back waists in many cases, or even single back waists, which is too dangerous, so Wu Xi can only be used as a substitute for Wang Jiayu in the national football team, although in terms of personal ability, He is even above Cai Huikang (in fact, the competition lost to Wang Jiayu not because of personal ability, but because he is not an Oriental player, and he suffers from the system and tacit understanding, and another point is that Wu Xi is older and his physical strength is relatively insufficient. )。
As for the former famous domestic backs who became famous earlier than Wu Xi, they are now quite old, even if they can still persist on the green field, they can only play substitutes in the Chinese Super League, and even fall to the Chinese League to eat, the impact of the dark years can be seen (to be continued......
