Step by Step to Win

For Tokyo, the second round of the AFC Champions League can be said to be terrible. At the Steel Park Stadium, Tokyo suffered its first defeat in the AFC Champions League: With Kabore’s injury, Tokyo’s military was in a state of disarray. Ishikawa’s penalty kick was missed and missed the goal. The best opportunity. In the following time, in the face of Pohang Steelers, who was sent off, Tokyo still failed to organize a decent attack. The score of 0-1 was maintained to the last minute, Tokyo’s first AFC Champions League guest. The war was defeated.

"Compared with Pohang Steelers, Tokyo's experience is still too little. It is not a behavior that a mature team should have because the morale of a player is injured when it is obviously taking the initiative."

After the game, the media commented on the situation in Tokyo. They also criticized a lot of Tokyo's performance. No penalty for not scoring and losing points, it's no wonder anyone else. Because one player is injured, the whole team has no energy to play. Such a mentality and the ability to withstand setbacks are really not suitable for playing in the AFC Champions League.

It's just that at this time, Tokyo has completely ignored the comments of the media. Compared with the failure, this game is even more unacceptable: after the game, Kabore’s injury report came out, and his injury was more terrifying than the players in Tokyo thought. His knee was injured, his anterior cruciate ligament was torn, and he needed an injury for seven months.

This news is simply disintegrating news: Seven months of injury means that even if Cabore is back, it is already the end of this season. It can be said. This season, Tokyo had to lose Kaboré, the strongest player.

Moreover, this is for Kaboré himself. It is also a heavy blow. Kabore’s injury is a torn cruciate ligament. Everyone knows that the most frightening thing about a torn cruciate ligament is that it is an irreversible injury. After this injury, I’m afraid that Kabore will be too. Not back to the peak. Even if he can make a comeback in the last month, it is difficult to say whether he can make a difference to the team.

This news, when Tokyo returned to Japan, also spread back to Japan. Heard the news. The J-League teams are also in an uproar.

"Caboré's injury is a very important news for the entire J-League. Tokyo last season. Finally, after many years of road, it has transformed into a powerful team with a place to compete for the AFC Champions League. This They retained most of the players during the season. The old players showed no signs of decline, while the young players have grown. They could have gone a step further. However, all of this has been changed with Kabore’s injury. "

After learning about Kabore’s injury, when the "Journal Sports" published the news, it also attributed it to a major event affecting the direction of the league-in their view, the loss of Kabore, even if it is the other Tokyo players Strong, Tokyo's strength has to be dropped by a level.

Kaboré is the backbone of the team, generally speaking a j-league team. The number of goals scored in a season is about 50, and Kabore, as the team's top scorer, can score about 20 goals alone. He is in the team. He enjoys a lot of privileges. He can refrain from counter-robbing, confrontation, or doing dirty work in the frontcourt because he can accomplish tasks that others cannot. The essence of his shooting skills, let alone Tokyo. It is difficult to find the second one in the entire J-League. He is in Tokyo. It is the sharpest sharp knife, anyone must be careful. But without him, Tokyo's defensive counter-attack method had not many opportunities. If there is no one who can seize the opportunity, then no matter how good the tactics are, it is no use.

The loss of the sharp knife, and the only sharp knife that Tokyo can rely on, is undoubtedly a huge loss for Dong. Brazil's foreign aid is of extraordinary significance to any J-League team. The best foreign aid in his team was accidentally injured and could not play for a season. It is absolutely unimaginable bad news for Tokyo.

His injury not only means that Tokyo is very difficult in the next AFC Champions League, but also means that Tokyo in the next league is also powerless.

The news came, and the media were predicting that this year's Tokyo would only be the mid-range team in the league, and there would definitely be no more teams competing for the top spots in the league. Without a spoiler, Gamba Osaka, Nagoya Grampus, Kashima Antlers and other teams will compete for the championship even more intensely.

"We in Tokyo are a mature team. The lack of Kaboré is a big blow to us, but it will definitely not have a profound impact on our strength. Tokyo is still very strong. We are still number one. Echelon team."

Shiro Fukuho also angrily refuted the comments made by "Journal Sports." However, is Tokyo really affected? No matter how much he said, it will be wasted. People are more concerned about what the next game will be like.

For the match on March 13, Tokyo sent Kenyou Nagai as Gao Shunyao's partner. He doesn't have very good technology, but his speed is very good. If you can't count on technology, Tokyo can only count on his speed to create miracles.

However, miracles are not so easy to create. In the second round of the game against the Urawa Red Diamonds, Tokyo simply lost the game.

The result of the game was that Tokyo lost the game 0-1-if you only look at the score, Tokyo seems not to lose too much, but looking at the game, you know how bad Tokyo played this game.

Of course, if you look at the defense, Tokyo's defense level in this game is even stronger than last season-Kensuke Nagai, who was replaced, runs very aggressively like Gao Shunyao and continues to play in the frontcourt. With all kinds of oppression and anti-grabbing, Urawa Red Diamonds have almost no chance. The two people's partner feels full of oppression. But if you look at the offense, people will find that these two partners have been wasting shot opportunities throughout the game. Whether it is Gao Shunyao or Nagai Kensuke, the two shots are almost without any crosshairs, and the game loses. It has a lot to do with the various wastes of the two of them.

This game can only prove that Kensuke Nagai, who is new on the field, has no way to replace Kabore, although he runs actively. And the speed is extremely fast, but his running ability is not very good, and his shooting skills are also poor. With his partner, Gao Shunyao is not only inferior to his partner in Kabore, but even inferior to his partner in The Epoch Times.

Moreover, Gao Shunyao's shot. In this case, it was also out of standard. When Kabore was on the court before, he didn't even have the ball at his feet. The guards around did not dare to relax their vigilance against him. Because he is always holding the opponent's attention in the frontcourt, Gao Shunyao's shots can occasionally play a role. However, now Kabore is no longer there. Nagai Kenyou was replaced, he was not enough to contain the opponent's defender, and Gao Shunyao was naturally held back.

These two are both tactical forwards, but they have no good shots. In the absence of a master shot, the tactical center's shooting will be greatly reduced.

Husky and Irving work together to play well, and Torres with Kuyt next to him can also make a difference. However, let Husky and Kuyt partner to play forward... it is definitely a nightmare for the team.

really. As one might expect, it is difficult for Tokyo to play an offensive without Kaboré. If facing Urawa Red Diamonds is because the opponent is too strong, then the next game. The home scene even lost the match against Osaka Sakura, which fully shows that Tokyo has a problem.

Osaka Sakura is just a newly promoted horse, although it is said that because their Brazilian coach Kurpi has top technical training ability, the youth training is very strong, there are many young good players, and there is even Kagawa Shinji in the team. Top players like Gan Guishi lost to such a team at home. Still too embarrassed.

Throughout the game, Tokyo still did not seize any decent chances, but Shinji Kagawa, who had 27 goals and 13 assists in the j2 league last season, scored the winning goal, which allowed him to get it again. A piece of praise also put Tokyo into a complete dilemma.

No one can tell that the situation in Tokyo has reached the point where it cannot be changed.

At this time, inside the Tokyo team, the coach and manager of the team are also discussing what to do. After the third round of the match, Cheng Fuhao was also invited to his office by Da Xiongqing.

"If this goes on, we will really be over this season. We only have one top foreign player and everything is built around him. We have prepared substitutes for other players, but it happened to this player who couldn't find a substitute. Injuries...our luck is terrible."

Seeing Da Xiongqing, Cheng Fuhao didn't conceal his complaints. His pride before the start of the season is now invisible at all. The most important player in the team was injured, which was a huge blow for him. He used to think that his team was not bad compared to Gamba, but now, looking at Gamba's two strikers, Lucas and Leondro, he still needs to prepare Cao Zaizhen. The thick forward line of uukanshu.com made him envious.

Only one striker is enough-he used to think so, but now he realizes that he still has too little knowledge. An injury to a top foreign player is enough to paralyze a team. This is the reality of Asian football.

"This is indeed a trouble that no one expected, and you can't be blamed." Da Xiongqing nodded slightly to his complaint, "However, I still have to tell you a bad news. I talked to the top of the team. The top management of the team is not prepared to invest in additional this season."

The high-level thoughts that they don’t want to invest money have been expected by Shiro Fukho: the signing date has just passed, and the signings will have to be June, and before June arrives, Tokyo must have all hoped for this season. Going there, signing in at that time will not do any good to the results. The team's choice is a very wise choice. Cheng Fuhao understood this in his heart, but he was still a little uncomfortable when he heard this.

"It's already like this, I know, it's very difficult for you to accept it. However, in this situation, we can only think of another way." As if seeing Cheng Fuhao's dissatisfaction, Da Xiongqing continued to speak. , And his words also revealed the team's next plan, "I am looking for you here, but what I want to say is another thing: Have you ever thought about training Gao Shunyao to become our main shooter?"
