Chapter 238 This team is not easy to lead
Zhuo Yang was a little worried. The national team in the Asian Cup was obviously not as good as the one in the World Cup six months ago. He felt that he had returned to the awkwardness he had when he returned to the national team.
With Zhuo Yang's support, Rijkaard did not recruit Deng Jianxiang, Wang Dalei and Rong Hao in this Asian Cup, plus Li Jinyu and Li Jue retired, and Sun Jihai was also temporarily suspended by Jie Shuai due to his condition. The team immediately lost half of the main team in the World Cup.
The national team at the South African World Cup is undoubtedly the most powerful in Chinese football history, far surpassing 02 Milu and 97's strongest in history, not to mention the previous countries with distinctive characteristics but obvious weaknesses. Team. The Chinese team in South Africa is actually the last bonus derived from the first peak era of Chinese football professionalization.
What should be retreated cannot be kept, and what should be punished cannot be ruthless. Jieshuai and Zhuo Yang started the stove again without hesitation and directly focused on the 2014 Brazil World Cup. Zhang Linpeng, Yang Xu, Huang Bowen, Li Xuepeng, Zeng Cheng, Liu Jianye, When young players around 20 years old are included in the national team's key training scope, all of which are selected this time come to Qatar.
The drastic reshaping is amazing, but we have to face the dilemma of declining strength and the difficulties of awkward tactics. Zhuo Yang and Jieshuai know this well, but the domestic media is still immersed in the historic glorious prosperity of the South African World Cup, and I cannot fully realize the difficulty of the national team restarting.
All the World Cup have been cut vegetables and melons. In just one Asian Cup, the champion can be easily beaten by just a fight. This is a common view of most domestic media. Other Asian media and even international media also regard the Chinese team as the Asian Cup. The biggest favorite is that Zhuo Yang is enough to make all Asian teams surrender.
In the warm-up match just after New Year's Day 2011, the Chinese team beat Iraq 3:2 easily, and it seemed to confirm the outside world's view. It took the lead 3:0 in the first half, demonstrating the outstanding strength of the World Cup's top 16. Although it lost two goals in the second half, it was only It was because Jay Shuai replaced nine main players including Zhuo Yang in one breath during the halftime break.
But the Chinese team did not play well in the first game of the group stage, and the 2-0 score at Alfara Stadium did not satisfy Zhuo Yang and Jieshuai at all.
Because the Chinese team failed to appear in the 2007 Asian Cup four years ago, when the results of the previous session were divided into grades, the Chinese team was listed in the third tier, with the first tier host Qatar and the second tier Uzbekistan in the same group. Last Kuwait.
To be honest, perhaps except for the host Qatar, the three teams in China and Ukraine should be the strongest team in their respective levels. Kawuke must be jumping and scolding, and being indignant about his own bad luck.
In the opening game, Uzbek unexpectedly beat host Qatar. The 2:0 score showed that the Central Asian Wolves had great experience in defensive counterattacks. The Chinese team also defeated Kuwait 2:0, which was completely natural. Even without Zhuo Yang, China also defeats Kuwait, and it can be scored by boys.
In the 1980s and 1990s, the most famous serial nemesis of Asian football was probably China, Kuwait and South Korea, which had an iron triangle cycle, making each other unreasonable cats and mice at all. Until the new century came, with the Chinese team. The characteristics of flying together with one high and one fast are no longer distinctive, and the strength is gradually weakening, which makes this famous iron triangle without a cycle of retribution.
The result of 2:0 was quite satisfactory, but the process was really awkward, and the whole game was played stumblingly. If Kuwait hadn't had enough strength, the Chinese team might not have been able to get off to a good start.
Before the end of the first half, the score was still 0:0. The Chinese team led by Zhuo Yang did not have a significant advantage. In the 44th minute, Kuwait central defender Mousaad Nada was sent off for a rough foul against Zhuo Yang and was sent off with a red card, causing the Chinese team to
It took advantage of the number of players and changed the trend of the game.
In the second half, only 5 minutes of the game, Hao Junmin broke through and won the corner kick. After Huang Bowen took the opportunity, Zhuo Yang pushed the football back to the middle of the penalty area line at a distance. Zhang Linpeng, who was in the open, volleyed. The ball actually did not play with strength, but the clever Kuwait defender
Fadiller stretched his legs to block the football, causing the football to change direction, heading straight to the near angle and turning into a refraction of the far angle, 1:0.
The moment the football entered the net, Kuwait captain and goalkeeper Nawaf Halliday lay on the ground so angry that he wanted to strangle Fadiller. After the game, the ball was still counted on Zhang Linpeng's head, and it was not Fadiller's own.
It was also Zhang Linpeng's first goal in the national team.
In the 66th minute, Zhuo Yang was tackled by Jarah Attig outside the penalty area. His subsequent free kick went into a perfect arc and changed the score to 2:0. After that, Jieshuai used Shao Jiayi to use Shao Jiayi.
Replace Zhuo Yang.
In the whole game, the only highlight of the Chinese team was still Zhuo Yang's pass and shot, and the smooth routine that six months ago was not played at all. However, he won the ball at all.
A few days later, the Chinese team encountered a hard block from Qatar at the Khalifa International Stadium.
The two teams have old grudges. In the top 20 matches more than two years ago, the Chinese team made the Qatar miserable at the Tianjin Water Drop Stadium. Zhuo Yang, who was full of bad water, made Qatar, which was drastically introduced naturalized players, ultimately missed the top 10 matches.
.
Compared to the several local players who were pretending two years ago, the Qatar team was all naturalized two years later, and the bench was full of "foreign" devils. Of course, all foreign gun procedures were complete, but the procedures were not found.
There is a trace of loophole.
A more critical change in Qatar was that French coach Bruno Mechu replaced Uruguayan Hurho Fosatti as the head coach of the national team.
Mei Chu, 56, was not considered a famous coach at the beginning, but in 2002, he led the unknown Senegal to the quarterfinals of the World Cup and became famous and directly promoted to the national team's palace-level head coach. After that year, Mei
Chu Binteng came to West Asia to coach gold rush, and the next year he led Al Ain to win the AFC Champions League. Then he coached the UAE national team and won the courtesan in the Gulf Cup surrounded by wolves.
The best one is the best. Mei Chu is good at leading mediocre teams, good at fighting encounters, and understands Asian football. Although his football philosophy is not advanced, he is indeed very good at playing a defensive counterattack.
The first accidental loss to Uzbek forced Mei Chu and his Qatar to the edge of the cliff. If you lose to the Chinese team in this game, you will lose face as the host. Qatar spent a lot of money on this Asian Cup, if this year
I lost in a dirt way, but why do you have the nerve to bid for the 2022 World Cup!
The enemy was particularly jealous when they met. Qatar, in a dangerous situation in Jedi, burst out with extraordinary combat power. He took advantage of the awkward cooperation between the Chinese team in the middle and frontcourts, and led 2:0 in the first half with two sharp counterattacks.
Qatar's number one star Sebastian Quintana assisted the 22-year-old demon star Yusef Ali twice with his physical and technical advantages, and Ali also penetrated the Chinese team's goal with two world-fire shots.
