Doha Port Stadium.

A new stadium built on a man-made peninsula.

The stadium is surrounded by the waters of the Persian Gulf, and the view from under the night sky is stunning.

The second match of the World Cup group stage against the United States will be played here.

At the pre-match press conference the day before, Lippi complimented the strength of the U.S. team.

And the coach of the American team, Berhalt, also said that the Chinese team will definitely cause trouble for the American team, but the American team has no way back and must fight for three points.

When the starters of both teams walked into the stadium together, the Chinese fans were still the protagonists of the stadium.

The stadium, which is 3,000 less than the capacity of the Sports City Stadium, still has nearly 30,000 Chinese fans rendering the stands into a sea of red.

The fans have done their best to give the national football team a similar home advantage when competing in the World Cup!

It is unknown whether their cheering momentum can put pressure on the American team, but it will definitely make the national football team more motivated!

In the tunnel of players, Ye Yifeng and Manchester United teammate Adams nodded to each other.

Adams is undoubtedly the intelligence officer of the U.S. team, and he was specially briefed by head coach Berhalter before the game to his teammates about the ability characteristics of Ye Yifeng, the core of the Chinese team.

Just today, the information exposed by the media shows that Adams is really a good student!

I took a notebook full of intelligence materials and gave it to the American team.

That's what Adams will do every day at Manchester United after the World Cup group stage draw results are out.

Recorded some of his observations of Ye Yifeng, and finally summarized it and passed it on to the coaching staff of the American team.

Fleet Street, which is not a big deal to watch the excitement, immediately released the news: Manchester United captain Ye Yifeng was "betrayed" by Tyler Adams!

Red Devils fans laughed.

Ye Yifeng himself did not have the slightest negative emotions when he learned the news, which is a normal thing.

Like he would talk to his team-mates about Godin and Jimenez, as well as other players he had played against.

It's just not as exaggerated as Adams being able to write a notebook.

The starters of both teams entered the stadium, and the shock of Chinese red in the stands made the American players feel a little complicated.

In the Qatar World Cup, I am afraid that only the Chinese team can create such a scene.

The other teams were a little bit off the mark.

"CCTV, CCTV, good evening everyone, this is the scene of the 2022 Qatar World Cup, I am He Wei, the live broadcast commentator, and I and Xu Yangxu will explain the second round of the group stage and the match between the Chinese team and the United States team at the Doha Port Stadium."

"Hello fans and friends, I'm Xu Yang. China are currently top of the group, we play the United States in the second round, France and Uruguay three hours later, and I think the other two teams will be watching the result of this game as well. ”

"Hehe, that's right, after the Chinese team defeated the Uruguayan team in the first round, the qualifying situation of this group was suddenly chaotic, and the outside world was a little caught off guard.

Maybe they expected that the Chinese team might be upset, but it should be a draw, but the Chinese team won against Uruguay, and this time, the situation became complicated. ”

"It is no exaggeration to say that there is only one team in this group that is currently expected to advance to the round of 16 in the second round, and that is the Chinese team!

Even if France wins against Uruguay, they may not be able to qualify early with four points.

In this way, it is understandable why the qualification situation of this group is chaotic.

The U.S. will definitely want to win against China today, because if they can't, they will have to beat Uruguay in the final round to have any hope of qualifying. ”

"The U.S. team did their homework before the game, and now the outside world is curious about what exactly is recorded in the notebook full of Ye Yifeng materials that Adams, the core of the American midfield, handed over to the coaching staff."

"It seems that Adams' transfer to Manchester United still has such a national team task, hehe.

However, today's start of the Chinese team today still surprised us.

Because none of the naturalized players on the front line are on.

After the last game, there was a lot of discussion about the game in China that Wu Lei did not get 1 minute of playing time, and everyone was worried that Lippi had given up Wu Lei, but today Wu Lei appeared in the starting line-up. ”

"So when we try to figure out Lippi's employment and thinking about the game, it may really be a blind eye.

And Lippi didn't need to explain to the outside world, after all, it was not his obligation.

Let's take a look at the start of the Chinese team today.

The Chinese team lined up a 451 formation.

Goalkeeper: Wang Dalei.

Defenders: Wang Gang, Zhang Linpeng, Jiang Guangtai, Wang Shenchao.

Midfielders: Xu Xin, Wu Xi, Ye Yifeng, Chi Zhongwei, Li Ke.

Striker: Wu Lei.

This lineup may be the starting lineup with the fewest naturalized players in the national team in recent years in important games.

However, we believe that Lippi will definitely send a naturalized player when he makes an on-the-spot adjustment, which could also be a game-changer.

The U.S. started 433.

Goalkeeper: Stephen.

Defenders: Yedlin, Robinson, Zimmerman, Robinson.

Midfielders: Moussa, Adams, McNee.

Forwards: Weah, Pepi, Pulisic.

Most of the players on the U.S. team come from Major League Soccer teams, but there are a few points that we must be wary of.

Adams in midfield, two wingers up front, striker Weah for Lille and Christian Pulisic for Chelsea.

are all stars who can bring impact to the Chinese team's defense.

Compared to Uruguay's aging, the U.S. team is more dynamic. ”

"Judging from the starting point of the Chinese team, today is definitely still defense-oriented, and the play of Wu Lei on the front line will be very crucial, I hope the Chinese team can continue the performance of the last game and continue to bring us a wonderful game!

The game will start soon, let's cheer for the Chinese team together! ”

The ceremony of playing the national anthem ended.

The chorus of tens of thousands of people still makes the appearance of the Chinese team seem to have turned into a war!

Before kick-off, the Chinese team will hug each other in a circle, bend over and shout three cheers, and then disperse to stand up.

Ye Yifeng walked to the middle circle and kicked off with Wu Lei.

In fact, Wu Lei didn't expect that he would start as a single striker.

In Lippi's eyes, there is actually no difference between likes and dislikes in employing people.

It's not from Messi, Ronaldo, and Lewandowski to pick a partner for Ye Yifeng.

It's a group of tool people who can't reach the first-class level.

Serve the strategy and tactics of the game, but also take into account the physical factor.

Wu Lei didn't play in the first game, he has the best physical fitness, and his characteristics are also in line with the predicted environment of today's game situation and the tactical concept of the Chinese team.

There are not as many complications as discussed in the outside world.

And this premise was chosen by Ye Yifeng.

Between defense and offense, Ye Yifeng chose the latter.

It's not that he can't trust the last group of naturalized players to play against the U.S. team and win, but he can't trust the back line to be able to block after exposing enough space for the opponent.

Under the dense defense, he can defend and fill the position, intercept head-on, and direct the people around him to compress the space and actively combine defenses.

But once the combat environment changed, he was unsure whether he could stop the American team.

It's not that he underestimates himself, it's that he can't gamble.

So he chose to use his personal ability on the offensive end to contain the large force of the American team.

The U.S. team is in good formation and ready to go.

When the referee blew the whistle and Wu Lei plucked the ball, the front trident of the American team rushed forward like a wild horse!

Weah and Christian Pulisic went straight to the Chinese midfield, while centre-forward Pepi rushed towards Ye Yifeng, who was in possession.

Ye Yifeng turned his back to Pepi and passed the ball facing the backcourt!

Pepi intends to go directly past Ye Yifeng and the other two wingers to form pressure on the Chinese midfield.

But just when he was one meter away from Ye Yifeng, Ye Yifeng's foot that was making a gesture to pass the ball pulled the ball diagonally and turned around!

The moment the two passed by, Pepi and Pulisic and Weah both came to an instant stop.

it!

Wrong!

Ye Yifeng pulled the ball and turned around and began to rush forward, while Wu Lei had already run directly to the position to suppress the guard line, ready to counter offside at any time!

Musa, the midfielder of the American team, immediately subconsciously went up to force Ye Yifeng.

Adams is not far away and wants to break his third leg!

I've taken so many notes!

You're running to give them heads!

Ye Yifeng stepped on the bicycle with his right foot in front of Musa, and the left-footed plucked the ball and reversed the line, changing directions, and his movements were silky and smooth, as if he had passed Musa without looking at the other party.

The dribble continues to advance rapidly along the area near the left side.

When Woolly started to cut diagonally into the left rib of the box from the right side of the box, Ye Yifeng sent in an inside curling cross before Adams and full-back Yedlin came to attack.

The ball flew into the left rib zone and hit the back of centre-back Robinson.

Robinson turned to look, only to see Thunder meet the ball but not kick the right part.

The soccer ball flew off the line.

Wu Lei turned around and applauded Ye Yifeng, who nodded at him.

Regardless of the end result, this kind of coordination is what they are going to play.

Wu Lei used his speed to capture the vacancy, and handed over the work of transporting the cannonballs to Ye Yifeng.

Berhalter was already nervous on the sidelines.

Just now, Wu Lei's half-single knife almost scared the American team out of the!

The Chinese team launched a surprise attack, and it was really impossible to prevent it.

Adams clapped his hands a little irritably, asking his teammates not to give Ye Yifeng a head easily!

Siege, blockade, delay!

Make sure to take more precautions and less!

Don't go on it alone, it's not enough for Ye Yifeng to stuff his teeth!

If you really want to get on it yourself, then go foul!

Without this level of awareness, no matter how many times you go, you will send it.

The momentum of the American team that had been saved before the game instantly dissipated.

They thought that Ye Yifeng would still play in the back.

But now it doesn't look like it's.

Lippi stood on the sidelines with his arms crossed over his chest, still with the same serious expression as in the previous game.

With these cards in hand, it's not that you change them in order to play a sense of déjà vu with bells and whistles.

But from the opening stance of the American team, he knew that his prediction was not wrong.

The U.S. team drew with the French team, and of course they had the determination and fighting spirit to swallow the Chinese team in one bite.

Circumstances forced them to do so!

The Chinese team first has to disrupt their pre-match deployment and disrupt the opponent's plan, and then see if the opponent will have flaws.
