Chapter 1458 Overcome rigidity with softness!
"Hello, all Huaguo fans, welcome to Sports Channel [-]. I am your old friend Li Feixiang."
"Hi everyone, I'm Sun Jihai."
"Today is Thursday, January 1. It's not a traditional Chinese holiday, but we are all looking forward to this day. Because tonight, the Chinese team will usher in their first knockout match of this Asian Cup—the quarter-final against Australia!"
"After qualifying in the group stage, you must go all out in every next game, because every step, you may continue to go up, or you may fall directly and go home, so the next knockout game will be more exciting and exciting."
"Today's game, Yunsheng's starting lineup has made some adjustments again. It is still a 4-3-2-1 formation, goalkeeper Zeng Cheng, four defenders Jiang Zhipeng, Zhang Linpeng, Feng Xiaoting, Zhang Chengdong, midfielder Huang Bowen, Wang Chuhe and Chen Tao, two shadow forwards Wu Lei and Yu Hai, and center Dong Fangzhuo."
"For this game, Yunsheng has no reservations, and has lined up the entire main lineup. Deng Zhuoxiang, Yang Xu, Sun Ke and other young people who performed well in the previous games did not appear in the starting list today. After all, the opponent in this game is too strong, Yunsheng should be more secure."
After Li Feixiang introduced the starting lineup, Sun Jihai on the side remained silent. After a while, he frowned and said, "Today's audience is a bit noisy."
Li Feixiang quickly took over the words: "Yes, our Hua Guo team is the favorite to win the Asian Cup. The Australian fans are afraid of us, so they booed everywhere. This is also a proof of our strong strength."
Li Feixiang kicked Sun Jihai lightly in the audience, signaling him to stop talking.
When cutting into the advertisement later, Li Feixiang told Sun Jihai: "Just now the leader of the station arranged it. Let's not talk about the Australian fans. After all, this involves international disputes."
Through the window of the VIP room, Sun Jihai could hear the scolding of the Australian fans very clearly.
"This group of animals, go scold them, they will look good in a while!" Sun Jihai cursed bitterly.
At this time, the players from both sides had already returned to the locker room, and Yun Sheng could clearly see the displeasure of the players.
This is a double-edged sword. It is possible that the player will kill the opponent in one go, and the technique may be out of shape due to emotion, and even increase the possibility of getting a card. It will be very troublesome.
"Boys, we are completely away from home in this game. In fact, from my subjective point of view, I don't like playing against the host, because we have to consider many off-court factors, but since we meet, it doesn't matter. We are not afraid of anyone!"
"I can understand your emotional fluctuations in this game, but you have to calm down, because we can't compete with them in the frontcourt! Their players are very strong, and we don't have the physical advantage, so we must rely on our excellent skills to win the opponent! Overcoming rigidity with softness is our strategic purpose in this game!"
Yunsheng made strict arrangements, and the players executed them perfectly.
Australia used a 4-3-3 formation today, with an inverted triangle in the midfield and a forward triangle in the striker.At the center position is their number one star Cahill, a top striker in Asia who once had a good performance in Everton.The two wingers next to Cahill are Matthew Leckie and Kruse, both of whom play in the Bundesliga and are very strong.
Bresciano, the core midfielder, has played in Serie A for many years and has excellent offense and defense; Longo and Jedinac around him both play in England.
Goalkeeper Matthew Ryan is Brugge's main goalkeeper and is about to move to La Liga giants Valencia.
Although the defensive players are all playing in Australia, they are not very strong, but they cooperate very well and the team ability is extremely strong.
For such a team, the strength of the three lines is very average.
Moreover, Australia's playing style is completely European style, focusing on physical confrontation and teamwork.
After the game started, the technical characteristics of the two sides were very different.
The Huaguo team has continuous small cooperation in the frontcourt, and the offensive players use their personal skills to break through and seek opportunities.
Australia, on the other hand, seeks physical confrontation as much as possible, and wants to fight hand-to-hand with Chinese players.In terms of passing and receiving, they are like a reduced version of Germany, with orderly offense and defense, and very few mistakes in passing and receiving.
And this is not their strongest, their strongest is the bottom pass and free kick tactics.
In the 11th minute of the game, in Australia's corner kick tactics, Cahill jumped high and headed the ball, and the ball hit the crossbar fiercely. Zeng Cheng hugged the falling ball in a thrilling manner, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Even Zhang Linpeng, who is physically strong, couldn't squeeze Cahill away. With Cahill choosing the right position, he had a great chance to grab the header.
At this time, Yun Sheng on the sidelines once again loudly told the players: "Don't foul easily! Don't give them corner kicks easily!"
In the locker room before the game, Yun Sheng had already warned the players, and Hua Guo players rarely fouled near the penalty area.However, Australia forced a kick outside the penalty area, and it was easy to hit the Chinese players and then get a corner kick.
This makes Hua Guo very difficult to deal with.
In the 23rd minute of the game, Australia played as a team in the midfield. In the physical confrontation, neither Wang Chuhe nor Chen Tao had an advantage. It was difficult for them to steal the ball from the Australian players. Huang Bowen had no choice but to bring down Bresciano from behind.
The referee whistled a foul, gave the Australian player a free kick on the left side of the penalty area, and gave Huang Bowen a yellow card.
Bresciano got up from the ground, and Huang Bowen's tackle just now didn't hurt him at all.
On the left side of the penalty area, pass the ball decisively!
Cahill jumped high in the penalty area and scored with a header!
The ball smashed into the net hard!
The ball is in!
1 to 0!Australia leads the score!
The home fans in the stands celebrated wildly and enjoyed the joy of scoring.
Yun Sheng on the sidelines shook his head again and again, the goal was almost unsolvable, just now Zhang Linpeng and Feng Xiaoting defended against each other, but in the end Cahill broke through the line of defense and headed the goal into the net.
Zhang Linpeng kicked the goal post hard, with annoyed expression on his face: "This guy really looks like Drogba, he is as strong as a calf!"
Goalkeeper Zeng Cheng also had a gloomy face, he barely had time to make a defensive move just now.
At this time, at the side of the court, taking advantage of the Australian players' celebration, Yun Sheng called Chen Tao over.
Because Zheng Zhi and Hao Junmin didn't start today, the captain's armband was temporarily worn on Chen Tao's arm.
"Xiao Chen, the defense just now was just that the opponent was too strong. In fact, we didn't make too many mistakes. However, our offense has not been played out, which is a big problem. I need you to command the midfielder and frontcourt, continue to improve the offensive speed and efficiency, speed up the passing and receiving speed and the possibility of personal breakthroughs. We must equalize as soon as possible!"
