World Cup of Great Powers

"It was a good first half."

"Keep playing like this in the second half!"

In the locker room, Zeng Zheng gave a simple summary of the first half.

"Everyone have a good rest, Yang Chen, come here for a moment."

"Yes, Coach Zeng!" Yang Chen quickly stood up and walked to the corner of the room with Zeng Zheng.

After Yang Chen left, the team members leaned together in twos and threes and exchanged their thoughts on the first half.

Talking to the team members one by one is also one of Zeng Zheng's ways of arranging tactics, so the team members who are called out alone do not have any worries.

Except for Li Hui, several other assistant coaches also sat next to Zeng Zheng and watched closely how Zeng Zheng led the team.

After each team member briefly explained a few words, ten minutes passed.

Seeing that there was still some time, Zeng Zheng clapped vigorously again.

"After the first half of the competition, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the opponent."

"After Troussier's training, football has indeed grown a lot in these two years."

"But we are not bad either."

"From the data point of view, we have a stable advantage over our opponents."

"The ratio of shots on goal was 13 to 8. We had 9 shots on target, compared to 5 on small days."

"The only thing they have more than us is offside fouls."

"Once for us, five times for them."

"In other words, this is basically the same as what we planned before the game."

"In the first half, both the game process and the game results were developing in the direction I expected."

"So everyone works harder and continues to play according to the tactics. There will be no difficulty in winning the small days."

"Shen Si, Ma Mingyu."

"The key point is still between you two."

"Yang Chen and Su Mao have already told me that there is no need to pursue too much precision, but you must be decisive and seize the opportunity well."

"You two are both veteran A-level ministers. I guess this won't be a problem for you, right?"

Shen and Ma immediately responded: "Don't worry, Coach Zeng."

"no problem!"

At the same time, the bell rang to start the second half.

The players stood up one after another and walked out of the locker room.

Seeing her good club friend Qi Hong approaching, Shen Si complained: "I am only 23 years old this year, and I am already a veteran in Coach Zeng's heart!"

...

At the beginning of the second half, the Chinese players were very excited after receiving Zeng Zheng's "ingenious tips" and began to launch ferocious interceptions in the midfield.

The Chinese team's midfield is not weak. In the first half, it was only slightly at a disadvantage against the opponent's 5-midfield lineup.

After Zeng Zheng's on-demand broadcast, when the team members showed their physical and strength advantages, Xiaoli's numerical advantage was self-defeating.

After a round of confrontation, Troussier immediately understood Zeng Zheng's intention.

They have already played for 45 minutes, and Zeng Zheng did not allow himself to continue attacking in the second half.

After seeing it clearly, Troussier told the translator to first pull the players back and start a defensive counterattack.

But at this moment, Yang Chen broke out.

In the 48th minute, as soon as the camera cut back from the faces of the coaches on both sides, the fans in front of the TV saw Yang Chen on the wing of his own half, using his body to force No. 14 Shunsuke Nakamura away.

After poor Nakamura managed to follow for a few steps, not only was the ball cut off from his feet, but he also rolled to the ground as if he had been thrown out of a car.

Seeing this, Martin didn't even put the whistle in his mouth.

What's in your mouth?

Yang Chen didn't even use his hands, he only relied on the strength of his torso to knock you away.

If the whistle is blown for such a ball, the Chinese fans at the scene must not spray him to death.

When Yang Chen stole the ball, Shunsuke Nakamura was turning around to protect the ball in his own half.

So after successfully stealing the ball, Yang Chen, who only staggered a step, drew an arc from the sideline and rushed back into the boundary.

Push forward with your right foot and push the ball forward with long strides.

The Bundesliga striker has taken great strides.

In just one step, he crossed the midfield.

When the other three young defenders in the backcourt saw this, they had no time to move towards Yang Chen, so they could only turn around and chase after him desperately.

After touching the ball three times in a row, Yang Chen had already dribbled the ball to the front of the Xiaori penalty area.

At this time, Hattori Nianhiro was stuck on the inside behind Yang Chen, and Morioka Ryuzo was stuck on the inside in front of Yang Chen.

Matsuda Naoki, who was at the top of the penalty area, also gave up his shot in the middle and attacked Yang Chen.

What a great Bundesliga striker!

Facing the double-team of three people, he took a small false step and then suddenly took off his left heel and fired a volley.

The ball hit Morioka Ryuzo's calf and suddenly spun forward rapidly, causing the ball to fall rapidly after flying to a high point.

Kawaguchi, who was on the line of the small penalty area, was unable to save the ball alive. He leaned back and before he could reach out his hand, the ball had already crashed into the net.

Snapped!

It was only then that Kawaguchi's still-living body lost its balance and fell backwards to the ground.

"Yang Chen! Yang Chen!

"

At this time, the microphone was filled with Huang Jianxiang's shouts.

The Maojiawan Football Stadium is boiling.

Even fans who are used to watching winning games couldn't help but become enthusiastic after seeing Yang Chen's solo ride of thousands of miles.

"Yang Chen controls the ball really well!"

"I use my body to intercept the ball and then rush forward. When I was little, defenders didn't dare to get close."

"Before rushing to the penalty area, use a fake move to deceive the opponent's center of gravity, and then use your left foot to hit the goal."

"After the ball hit the leg of Xiaozhi defender, the line changed, and goalkeeper Kawaguchi Nori could not react at all."

"2 to 1!"

"The Chinese team exceeded the score again!"

At the same time, the big screen on the scene began to defend Yang Chen's shot from multiple angles.

In the stands, countless fans held the corner of the red flag in their hands and waved the red flag majestically.

From stealing the ball to scoring a goal, Yang Chen showed unparalleled speed, endurance, strength, explosive power and basic skills in front of Chinese and Japanese fans.

Seeing such a goal, everyone on the Chinese coaching staff raised their hands and came to the sidelines to applaud enthusiastically.

Troussier's face darkened.

He didn't blame the players.

This ball is completely a crime without war!

In the Xiaotian formation, there was absolutely no team member who could compete with Yang Chen at this time!

Not only Troussier, but all the young fans watching the game at the scene and in front of the TV also had this idea in their hearts.

After the game, the "Asahi Shimbun" even commented: "Chinese team Yang was overwhelming in our defense."

"Yang is a huge cannon that cannot be frozen by the Chinese team!"

"It would be great if we had such a Bundesliga striker in our team!" - This was almost the common wish of all the fans of the Little League at that time.

Yang Chen's domineering move allowed the Chinese team to completely control the situation on the court after the start of the second half.

The Chinese team’s attack horn also sounded frequently.

In the 50th minute, Zheng Zhi made a long pass from the backcourt and once again found Yang Chen, his only player in the frontcourt.

After Yang Chen jumped high, he used his forehead to point the ball in front of his body, protected the ball under the double-team of two defenders, and then waited for other teammates to move forward.

After handing the ball to his teammates, Yang Chen did not stop there, but looked for opportunities and rushed towards the Xiaori penalty area.

Shen Si, who was controlling the ball, saw this and lifted the ball with the tip of his left foot, over the head of the Xiaotian defender.

The ball landed exactly one step inside the penalty area. Such a distance prevented Kawaguchi from attacking rashly.

Fortunately, this time only Yang Chen rushed forward. While the two Xiaotian players blocked Yang Chen, they asked the third teammate to jump up and clear the ball.

However, before the clearance this time, the Chinese team's offense once again reached the edge of the penalty area.

This time, it was still Shen Si’s pick.

Exactly the same as before.

This time, Su Mao, who also rushed up, really attracted a lot of firepower for Yang Chen.

Facing one man's defense, Yang Chen jumped up high and smashed the ball towards the goal with his head.

It's a pity that the angle of the head was a bit right, and Kawaguchi Nobuo held the ball firmly in his arms.

After regaining the ball, Xiaotian tried a counterattack.

However, this time, when Nakamura Shunsuke wanted to accelerate with the ball, he was hit "half to death" by Ma Mingyu who came over.

The staggering Shunsuke Nakamura used his last strength to keep the ball and kicked the ball forward before falling, hoping that his teammates could run out of space.

However, as soon as forward Nishizawa Akihon received the ball, Martin's whistle sounded.

Looking at the offside flag held high by the linesman, Nishizawa Mingxun had no choice but to kick the ball directly to Ou Chuliang.

Faced with the opponent's tricks, Ou Chuliang did not fall for it and immediately threw the ball to his teammates in front.

After Zhang Ran quickly took a free kick, the ball advanced from the left wing and was knocked horizontally to Shen Si's feet again.

As soon as Shensi got the ball, Mingbo Hao, who was guarding him, immediately tensed up and subconsciously took a step back.

He was afraid that Shen Si would pick the ball again.

Seeing that the opponent's defense had already formed a muscle reaction, Shen Si smiled slightly, adjusted a small step forward, and made a strong breakthrough.

Upon seeing this, Mingbohao hurriedly stepped forward to block it.

But the next second, the instep of Shen Si's left foot tightened and she lifted her toes.

Picked up the ball again.

"idiot!

"Mingbo Hao was so angry that he cursed in his heart.

Looking at the ball rising into the air in front of him, Minghao jumped up with all his strength.

But it can be clearly seen from the lens that all this is in vain!

The ball passed over the head of Hiroshi Mingbo and fell behind the defender of Xiaori again.

This time, the golden-headed old Mao Sumao rushed into the penalty area boldly and used his body to push away the defenders.

Turning sideways, he used his chest to catch the ball, trying to stop the ball at his feet.

The defender squeezed away and caught the ball with his chest, but he stopped the ball with too much force.

Faced with the ball that suddenly accelerated and bounced toward him after landing, Kawaguchi was able to throw the ball out without thinking about his own safety. He opened his arms like a vicious dog and pressed the ball firmly under his body.

Seeing this, Su Hao had no choice but to retract his legs and jump over Kawaguchi.

Seeing this, the fans in the stands let out a sigh of relief.

Although the ball was wasted due to the players' own fault, it still shocked them into a cold sweat.

"Baga, the Chinese team's style of play is so shameless!" a young fan said angrily.

"Do they dare to go underground with us?"

"I always hit high-altitude balls. Who can guard against this?!"

yes!

The Chinese team always uses the pick-and-pass method to attack hard. Who can defend against this?

The truth is: No one can guard these young players at this stage!

Looking at the backs of the Chinese players turning away, several Xiaotian defensive players gasped and looked at each other.

Kawaguchi was able to curse loudly;

Matsuda Naoki’s eyes were blank;

Hattori Nianhiro looked innocent;

Morioka Ryuzo spread his hands.

The other midfielders twisted their necks - this matter has nothing to do with me!

On the sidelines, Troussier frowned.

His team is in dire straits!

He is proud of his ground passing and often starts the Chinese team's strong interceptions in the midfield.

Even the two forwards Yang Chen and Su Maozhen will retreat to the center line to participate in the defense.

As a result, the Xiaori players were basically unable to hold the ball in the midfield.

And once you try to pass a long ball, whether on the ground or in the air, you will hit the Chinese team's offside trap.

Looking at it now, there is no other way to attack other than going wide.

But the problem is that Zeng Zheng's team is very familiar with defending 352 wing attacks.

If you want to force an attack, the scene where Yang Chen stole the ball will easily happen.

Compared with the Chinese players, our own players do not have an advantage in terms of body or strength!

You can't attack and you can't defend.

In his opinion, Zeng Zheng's lob attack style was simply too old-fashioned.

But the problem is that it just works!

The first point of attack is passing through the midfield - that is, giving up the connection pass directly, starting from the center back and midfielder, and directly finding the forward through the midfield.

Then, relying on the forward's personal ability, he can force a breakthrough and shoot or protect the ball to his teammates for support.

The second hanging point is in front of the penalty area - when the offensive players are in place, the front midfielder passes directly behind the defender with a pick-up pass. Two powerful forwards force the defense to catch the ball or shoot.

.

It can be seen that the key to these two lob tactics is that the forward has an absolute advantage in 1v1, and even does not fall behind in 1v2.

Su Maozhen and Yang Chen just meet this condition!

The two forwards rushed forward, and the three defenders were unable to guard them.

So after the start of the second half, Xiaori's formation basically dropped to 532.

How to prevent the Chinese team's attack?

Troussier's face fell.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He has already seen the assistant coach noisily directing the players on the sidelines without his own orders.

Although he didn't understand the language, he could tell from the assistant coach's tone and body that he was using the most primitive, brutal, and roughest defensive method.

In the 56th minute, Zheng Zhi saw the opportunity and hit Yang Chen again from the backcourt with a high ball.

Leaning against the defender, Yang Chen jumped up and rubbed the ball to the side with his head, then twisted around and tried to break through.

After receiving the prompt, Matsuda Naoki immediately pressed forward after failing to break away from the top, and fell to the ground to slide.

Yang Chen, who had his ankle scratched, staggered for a moment and then forced his foot to shoot.

Nori Kawaguchi quickly fell to the ground, and the ball passed the fingertips of the goalkeeper and slid out of the door.

Seeing Yang Chen running back as if nothing was wrong, Martin picked up the whistle, but he still failed to blow it.

Two minutes later, the Chinese team's offense made a comeback.

This time, as soon as the ball passed the center line, the Chinese players were flanked by their opponents on the left wing.

Wu Chengying saw the opportunity, pushed the ball into the court, and then quickly accelerated along the wing, trying to play a two-on-one.

When Shensi saw this, she understood immediately. Facing the incoming ball, she directly raised her left leg, preparing to hit the wall with her teammates.

But before the ball even touched, Inamoto Junichi's tackle from behind had already hit him.

Shen Si, who was tackled from behind, staggered, first fell to her knees on the ground, and then rolled her body forward.

This time, Martin didn't hesitate and blew the whistle directly.

"Tackling from behind?"

"It's too dangerous! This must be a card!"

"But let's see how the Chinese players are doing first."

The thought flashed, and before Martin could speak, Shen Si, who had been rolling around on the ground, quickly got up, grabbed the ball next to her, pressed it to the ground, and pushed it forward.

Seeing this, Martin had no choice but to point to the Xiaori goal, indicating that the game should continue.

At the same time, although Wu Chengying, who had already sneaked up from the wing, was slightly suspected of being offside, everyone's attention was focused on Shensi Shensi just now, and no one thought too much.

After Wu Chengying got the ball, she accelerated forward. Instead of going straight to the baseline, she rushed diagonally toward the penalty area.

When the defender saw this, he didn't dare to neglect him, so he could only turn around and pursue him fiercely.

"Don't let him pass by!"

"Don't let him get up!"

"Don't let him pass in front of the goal!"

After the assistant coach said "Da baa" three times in a row, Wu Chengying in front of the vertical line of the penalty area finally swung his left foot, and the three things that the assistant coach was most worried about did not happen.

However, when they saw the ball rolling towards the top of the penalty area, and Ma Mingyu, who was facing the ball, kept flicking the ball with his toes, all the young players who were still running to cover up the defense suddenly had thousands of grass and mud horses galloping past in their hearts.

.

idiot!

Damn Chinese players!

Can't they use something new?

The Xiaori defender who ran diagonally from the left looked at the ball being picked up in the air, his heart filled with despair.

At the same time, Yang Chen, who was inserted in the middle, twisted his hip and knocked Matsuda Naoki aside.

On one side of his body, he waited for the ball to fall to his feet and as soon as it bounced, he followed up with a "bang" sound from his tense right foot and pulled the ball out hard.

The heavy artillery fire at such a close range prevented Kawaguchi, who was guarding the door, from reacting at all.

Wow!

The ball hit the Xiaori goal for the third time, causing a huge wave in the net.

When he saw Yang Chen score, Zeng Zheng on the sidelines grinned.

"Haha, the trick is not new, it just works!"
