vs 82 Central Asian wolf packs
(a)
Under the mediation of the Hong Kong Football Association President Huo Zhenlin and the organizing committee, Xiao Zhan Ge also received more unexpected treatment. At 19 o'clock in the evening of November 9th, Xiao Zhan Ge will wear the jersey of the Hong Kong team, as an "entrance player holding hands with caddies", and take Chen Zhuo's hand into Huadu Stadium.
This ceremony began in 1998 with the Shijie Cup in France, which had not been held in the previous 1996 European Championships, and later FIFA stipulated that in order to make the concept of football deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, all international A-level football events and some important football matches must bring caddies into the venue, regardless of gender. As a result, the ceremony of the caddie holding hands with the players on the field was also fixed.
The regional flag is the Bauhinia flag, as a special administrative region, when the national anthem is played, the national anthem of the Hong Kong team is also "March of the Volunteers", the little war song stands in front of Chen Zhuo, the right hand is placed on the left chest, and the national anthem is solemnly sung.
After participating in the entrance ceremony, the war song was sent to the stands by the security personnel, and sat in the middle of the Hong Kong star football team with Zhan Hong and Xiaomeng, as a "special guest", Chen Zhuo's younger brothers and sisters were also introduced to the audience in the live broadcast of Hong Kong TV, which made the audience feel very warm.

Uzbekistan is a member of the AFC after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, and their first appearance in Asia was "amazing", that was in the 1994 Hiroshima Asian Games, the Uzbekistan team that participated in the Asian Games for the first time won six consecutive games, defeated South Korea 1:0 in the semifinals, and defeated the Chinese team 4:2 in the final, winning the championship amazingly. However, it was their only title, and since then they have drifted away from the Asian champions.
Uzbekistan coach Kasimov, who shook Baggio's hand with a humble smile, was a key player in the 1994 Hiroshima Asian Games winning team. And the "golden decade" of Uzbekistan, from 1994 to 2004, was created under the leadership of Kasimov, who was born in 1970.
Uzbekistan was initially ranked 110th in the international rankings from the collapse of the Soviet Union and became a separate member of FIFA and AFC, and in the decade from 1994 to 2003, Uzbekistan's professional football league was also in full swing, with Zico and Scarari both coaching in the Uzbek league, and in 2003 Uzbekistan reached a peak of 43rd in the international ranking, one of the top three in Asia.
However, after the retirement of a group of veteran players such as Kasimov, Uzbekistan has shown a trend of green and yellow, although every Shijie Cup qualifier can enter the top 10 stage of Zuihou. But it's always missed. It has never been able to make it to the Shijie Cup, and by September 2010, the international ranking of the Uzbek football team had slipped to 101st.
Kasimov has been an assistant coach for the Uzbekistan national team and the national Olympic team since retiring from the tournament, after another failure in the 2009 Top 10 competition. Former head coach Hailanov resigned. Kasimov was ordered to be in danger. Became the head coach of the Uzbek national team and the national Olympic team.
As an integral part of Soviet football, the Uzbek team fully adheres to the characteristics of Soviet football in terms of team style, in terms of individual ability. The Uzbek players are not outstanding, but the intentions of the executive manager are very resolute, and the whole team is fierce, well-trained like a mechanized army, moving quickly, and the formation is always neat.
In terms of tactical characteristics, Uzbekistan often uses defensive counterattack tactics in front of strong teams, their shooting efficiency is relatively high, and the best tactic is to use the space between the opponent's flat back lines to stuff straight balls forward, and the forwards who start quickly slam behind the opponent's central defenders and go straight to the opponent's penalty area, often using the most direct way to create a single goal.
In addition to quick counter-attacks, the use of set-pieces to open up the situation is also an important means of scoring in Uzbekistan, and in summary, long counter-attacks, set-pieces and ferocious sieges constitute Uzbekistan's "three axes".

In terms of style, Uzbekistan is closer to the style of European teams, and in the preparation for the Asian Games, Baggio also regards Uzbekistan as the most important opponent. Vicenza, Birmingham, and Hamburg, all of which are teams that play defensive counterattacks, and in preparation for this European training, Baggio also regarded these warm-up opponents as a "strengthened version" of Uzbekistan.
In the original jihua, Baggio's conservative estimate was to draw with the United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan, and by fighting the Bangladesh team, he finished second in the group or third in the group with the best four results, and won the right to qualify.
After all, it is a team that has not qualified for the Asian Games in 52 years, and despite the addition of five "European aids", Baggio still does not dare to hold it up, and it always does not hurt to be cautious and safe.
Most of the players in the Uzbek team come from their domestic leagues, and after watching some videos of the Uzbek domestic leagues, Baggio believes that the league in Uzbekistan is worse than the level of the Chinese Super League, and it is not comparable to the K-League and J-League.
And Uzbekistan is also the same as China, the lack of system in youth training, the lack of basic skills, frizzy personality and ups and downs are the problems of almost all their players, including their goalkeepers!
Uzbekistan has always been accustomed to playing a back four, Baggio carefully studied their double central defenders, and found that these two central defenders have strong individual defensive ability, but the two of them are not good at assisting and supplementing the sense of positioning, and it is likely that the opponent will use flexible interspersed running positions to penetrate the entire backline!
And their left fullback is also a clear advantage and disadvantage, fast speed and strong assist ability, but the defensive action is big, very fond of fouls, often eat red and yellow cards in the league, for the Hong Kong team with Chen Zhuo, this left back is simply the Hong Kong team's undercover personnel in Uzbekistan!
In midfield, Uzbekistan are accustomed to a midfield combination of two midfielders and two wings, which is also in line with their tactical system of defensive counter-attacks and ferocious sieges, among which Yeparov, a 28-year-old defender who plays for Seoul FC, is usually the source of Uzbekistan's counter-attack.
In terms of forwards, the 32-year-old Shatskikh, who is 1.87 meters tall, is the number one star in Uzbekistan, and he has been with the Ukrainian giants for 10 years in Dynamo Kyiv to win 6 crowns and 4 runners-up, has played in the Champions League and the League Cup, and has won the top scorer of the Ukrainian league twice, and was once considered to have taken over Shevchenko's gun.
However, Shatskich cannot be compared with the first-class strikers in Europe, his ability to control the ball is poor, his offensive ability with the ball is average, his ability to create chances by himself is relatively weak, and he relies more on the passing of his teammates, and needs a strong attack system to support him in order to give him the characteristics of sensitive sense of smell in front of goal and strong ability to grab points.
Just as Messi's performance in the Argentine team was far inferior to his performance in Barcelona, Shatskich's performance in the national team was not satisfactory, and Shatskich was not suitable for anti-counter-attacking tactics, but he could play a role in free-kick tactics.
Another striker, Nasimov, a 23-year-old player from Kazan Ruby who plays in the Russian league, is a speed striker in Uzbekistan's anti-counter-attack tactics, and he and Shatskikh form "one tall one".

For the Uzbekistan drill, Baggio emphasized four key players, one is their striker No. 9 Nasimov, emphasizing not to leak the defense to let him run, and the second is Yeparov, the back midfielder, who is like dealing with Matar in the United Arab Emirates, forcing him to not let him play long balls calmly.
The third key point is their number one star Shatskich, as long as the first two points are prevented, Shatskikh's power will not be able to be exerted at all in the sports battle, and when the set-piece is taken, Chen Zhuo retreats and Rong Aping to pinch Shatskikh together, which is enough to deal with him!
The first three focuses are defense, and the fourth focus is to seize the weakness of the opponent's left-back Denisov who has many fouls, and Ouyang Yaochong will impact him from the side.
Although it has won a victory, the Hong Kong team is still playing cautiously in this game, according to Baggio's deployment, the first five minutes are still a test of the referee's law enforcement scale, but ......
"Toot ~~~" As Guo Jianbang rolled on the ground with his legs in pain, the referee blew the whistle and showed a yellow card to the right midfielder of the Uzbekistan team, and the game was only 3 minutes into the game.
In the first five minutes of the opening, Guo Jianbang of 1.69 meters, Ouyang Yaochong of 1.72 meters, and Zhai Tingfeng of 1.75 meters, Baggio arranged the attack and defense mainly through the three of them.
This is also the three shortest and thinnest players on the field of the Hong Kong team, in addition to the three of them, the five European reinforcements are all over 1.80 meters tall, the tallest Chen Zhaoqi is 1.88 meters tall, and the back Xu Deshuai is also 1.79 meters tall.
is completely different from the strategy of the previous game, in this game, facing Uzbekistan, which has a European style, Baggio needs the referee's whistle to be "tighter"!
Originally, Baggio also asked Huo Zhenlin to do work through the Asian Organizing Committee, hoping to redraw the line of the field of this game, and if the length of 105 meters cannot be changed, he hopes to draw the width to 64 meters, and shorten each side inward by 2 meters, so that Uzbekistan's long passing and large-scale wing running tactics can be imperceptibly restricted.
According to FIFA regulations, the width of the field in international competitions is within the standard range of 64 to 75 meters, so the rules of reasonable use are also allowed!
It's just that how troublesome it is for us to do something in China, we Chinese all know, the most important thing is a bunch of procedures and approvals, the leaders are in a hurry, how troublesome it is to change so much, and finally Bacho's request, Huo Zhenlin did the work, but it was not able to meet.
Then again, you can't bribe and give gifts in order to change the line, in that case, the nature of the matter will change, and if you can't do it, you have to give up. (To be continued......)
