Golden Greenery

To conquer the enemy without fighting.

In fact, except for the ten minutes when they scored three goals in a row, the Chinese team did not play well at the Seoul World Cup Stadium. However, relying on Zhuo Yang's intimidation, they just took away a point from Seoul.

But the Iranians were obviously bolder than the Koreans, and Zhuo Yang did not scare them.

In fact, Zhuo Yang did not scare the Iranians.

Iran defeated Qatar 2:0 in the last game, but it was not easy. Both goals were scored in stoppage time.

During the halftime break, the Iranian coaching staff made trouble for the Sri Lankan referee Pereira in the tunnel. I heard that he grabbed the collar by the neck. In Tehran, Iranians are always bold.

Throughout the second half, the Qataris were blinded by the green laser pointers in the stands.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s Guchinejad took advantage of a mistake in Qatar’s defense and broke the deadlock with a shot.

Then the Azadi Stadium in Tehran went crazy. A large group of excited Iranian youths and streetwalkers rushed into the stadium and started celebrating with the players until the military police beat them back to the stands with thick rubber sticks.

So the time has come for ‘Iranian Zhuoyan’ Jahanbakhsh to score his second goal

The important thing about the game is not the result, but the process, right?

Because they played too hard at the Seoul World Cup Stadium four days ago, several players in the Chinese team suffered minor injuries and physical fatigue. Sforza replaced some of the starting lineup in the game against Iran at the Shenyang Olympic Sports Center.

Veteran Zheng Zhi sat on the bench, Li Xuepeng started, and Feng Xiaoting served as captain. Ren Hang, Wu Xi, and Sun Ke were replaced by Zhao Mingjian, Hao Junmin, and Zhang Yuning. 1. Vitesse plays football in the Eredivisie and is a teammate with Japanese defender Hirosuke Ohta.

Ten years ago, Yu Hai also went to Vitesse for a trial training, but ultimately failed to stay. Vitesse has always been a well-known multinational team in the Eredivisie. Now, in addition to the Dutch, their first team also accommodates players of 12 different nationalities, covering Asia, Africa and Europe. Every time head coach Jaros Houwen does tactical chanting, it feels like a meeting at the United Nations.

I wish Zhang Yuning good luck in the Eredivisie. He is now the only player under the age of 20 in the Chinese team. Don’t ever be like another Zhang Yuning in Chinese football, the regrettable jade-faced killer known as the ‘Football Linghu Chong’.

The 23-year-old ‘Iranian Zhuoyan’ Jahanbakhsh also plays in the Eredivisie, but he is Alkmaar’s top scorer. Facing the Chinese team today, his partner on the front line is Sardar Azmoun, the ‘Iranian Messi’.

Azmon, who currently plays for Russian Super League team Rostov, is younger.

He is only 21 years old, and his national team and club teammate, 'Iran Pogba' Saeed Essatorahi is not yet 20 years old.

There are also ‘Iran Xavi’ Shojai, ‘Iran Gattuso’ Mohammadi…

However, even if the Chinese team's big killer Zhuo Yangqian sits on the bench, the starting players are not ambiguous at all compared to the Iranians. Zhang Moss, Artemesta, Yu Ben, Casilla Yan, Modrizhe, Vontini, Huang Weinsteven, the King of Wushu, and there were also Linsmann and Pilzhi sitting off the court, Uzbekistan The sound is like thunder piercing the ears.

Who is afraid of whom?

Honestly speaking, the Chinese team played really well in this game, much better than the match against South Korea four days ago. Still tenacious and brave enough to show his sword.

In the 5th minute of the game, after Shaojiay got the ball in the penalty area in the backcourt, he ran wildly with the ball and rushed to the frontcourt. In a 3-on-4 situation, he relied on his excellent ball-handling skills and rhythm pause to quickly chase back and follow the defense. Li Xuepeng.

With a horizontal stroke, Shao Jiayi... No, Shao Jiayi keenly grasped the momentary space between Feng Xiaoting and Li Xuepeng, and then sent a very penetrating through ball.

Amiri instantly switched to the forward position and took the ball to form a solo shot in the penalty area.

Yan Junlin bravely dived for the ball, but Amiri kneed him in the abdomen. After another five minutes, Casillayan couldn't hold on anymore and was replaced by China's World Cup quarter-final goalkeeper Wang Da Torre.

The counterattack led by Shaojai advanced very quickly. From the ball in the backcourt to the shot, it only took two passes. The decisiveness and efficiency of the transition from defense to offense were very high. The Chinese team players obviously have problems in terms of insight into dangerous situations, awareness of pursuit, follow-up and delay, and tactical fouls.

This is the gap in tactical awareness, which cannot be made up by short-term training with the national team. The root cause must be traced back to the youth training, and it must be developed in daily leagues.

In the 21st minute, Zhang Yuning directly dislocated the shoulder blade of Iran's old defender Montazeri in the battle for the top, forcing them to replace the older Husseini.

Against the odds, the Iranians were ferocious and the Chinese team, incarnate, made up for the technical and tactical gap with tenacity.

Today, Sforza's Chinese team is less gorgeous and frivolous than during Rijkaard's time, but it has become full of gangsterism. He is not as good at using the width and depth of the court as Jieshuai, but he is more mature in limiting space and has a better balance between offense and defense.

The only thing that hasn't changed is that without Zhuo Yang, his scoring ability is lackluster.

Wu Lei wasted another great opportunity in the second half.

In the 71st minute, the tough Zhang Moss suddenly advanced with the ball, disrupting Iran's midfield defensive line. When Zhang Xizhe got the ball, he gained a lot of space and vision time, and then instigated a penetrating long-distance shot. Straight plug.

Wu Lei's small arc movement is very flexible and smart, relying on speed to get in from behind. However, under the joint obstruction of defender Husseini and goalkeeper Beiranvand in front of him, he chose to spike the ball with his right foot and tried to do it left. Foot thrust.

At high speed, it is very difficult to stop and smash the ball. Wu Lei's technique was not precise enough, which caused his feet to get mixed up and ultimately missed the opportunity to score.

This is also the best opportunity for the Chinese team in the game.

In the following time, the King of Martial Arts and 'Iranian Messi' Azmoun each fell into the opponent's penalty area after being interfered by a defender once, but Palestinian referee Makhdoum did not make a penalty, which was fair.

Throughout the game, the Chinese team and Iran were basically evenly matched in terms of statistics and appearance. The Chinese team was at a slight disadvantage, and the final score was 0:0.

In Zhuoyang's view, Iran played like Real Madrid today, but they lacked the decisive Ronaldo. The Chinese team played like Atletico Madrid, but also lacked Griezmann on the front line.

After two rounds of the top 12, the Chinese team had two matches and two draws with 2 points. South Korea, which also drew 0:0 with Syria in this round, was tied for third. Iran, with one win and one draw, ranked second with 4 points.

The temporary first place in Group A is Uzbekistan, which defeated Syria and Qatar with the same 1:0 score in the two games.

The series has just begun, and the Chinese team is waiting for the perfect return of captain Zhuo Yang. The season has just begun. Zhuo Yang returned to England from China and will continue to face the Premier League, which is still in an unfamiliar stage, and the oncoming Champions League, which is no longer unfamiliar at all.
