In the case of insufficient physical reserves, Guangzhou lost the ball in the 15th round of the Chinese Super League this season due to lack of physical fitness, and finally regrettably lost 0-1 to Beijing Guoan, who only had 1 foreign aid left.
Although his coaching debut ended in a loss, Guangzhou's coach Zheng Zhi won the recognition of live commentator Xu Yang, who believed that Zheng Zhi could play a high score in this game, and from the content of the game, Evergrande played better than Guoan.
Judging from the technical statistics after the game, whether it was winning or losing to Evergrande in the past, Guoan generally did better than Evergrande in terms of the two big data of possession rate and passing number. But in this game, the opposite situation occurred (above): the possession rate was 46.3% to 53.7%, and the number of passes was 418 to 493, both of which were more than Guangzhou.
In other important statistics, Guoan only did a better job of shooting and shooting on target than Guangzhou.
In addition, in the first 70 minutes of the game, with physical security, Guangzhou played more like a whole, and also created more threats to Guoan, but Wei Shihao and other players forgot to bring shooting boots and failed to seize the opportunity to score.
Based on the above analysis, Xu Yang, a famous mouth after the game, believes that from the perspective of the content of the game, guangzhou team undoubtedly played better than Guoan, but the lack of ability to seize the opportunity led to loss.
For Zheng Zhi's coaching debut, Xu Yang also commented.
During the game, Zheng Zhi put his hands in his pockets (above), and a nonchalant expression caused heated discussion, which was in stark contrast to the domineering image of Zheng Zhi on the team.
Xu Yang was surprised to say that Zheng Zhi commanded calmly and calmly, and the commentator Yan Qiang also recognized Zheng Zhi's command temperament, believing that some coaches shouted on the sidelines to direct how to command the players to play, which may interfere with the players, rather than leaving the game to the players themselves, just make detailed arrangements before the game.
Yan Qiang's move is pointed out, in the national football team to play the round of 12 matches, former national football coach Li Tie often shouted on the sidelines to direct the players to play the ball (above).
Xu Yang also believes that today's Guangzhou team, in the case of spontaneous formation, only Zheng Zhi has this charm to make a group of teammates gather to form a joint force, and the team has not dispersed.
In the 71st minute of the game, Zheng Zhi communicated with the players in the field whether he could maintain his physical fitness, and when he got a positive answer, he gave his teammates a thumbs up (below). It can be seen that Zheng Zhi also noticed that the physical condition of the players on the field was not very good.
In addition to the conductor's temperament and personal charm, Zheng Zhi has also attracted the attention of the outside world in the technical and tactical arrangements of the team.
Judging from the course of the game, Guangzhou always insisted on walking under the ball, kicking the pass control of the play, and passing the ball purposefully from the goalkeeper, rather than blindly kicking the big foot.
And from the perspective of progress, the Guangzhou team played quite methodically and routinely, although the team's cooperation is not very skilled, and the player's passing has also been wrong, but it can be seen that there is Zheng Zhi's idea in it.
In an interview after the game, Yan Dinghao also said that the team played according to the arrangement of Zhi Ge.
Although it is the debut coaching, the team led by Zheng Zhi can at least make people see that they have their own ideas, and they also take the road of modern football.
Although a little childish, but this is enough, it is no wonder that after the game, Zheng Zhi had a good mood and talked with Guoan coach Bilic (above) and showed a happy smile.
If from the perspective of the championship, the loss of the Guangzhou team is obviously unfavorable, but now Evergrande, winning the championship is no longer the goal, and it is a more realistic pursuit to survive.
Insufficient physical reserves, a lot less preparation period than the opponent, coupled with the team's main lineup loss of more than half, only with the real local all-Chinese class, and the head coach is still a rookie...
Such a variety of unfavorable factors superimposed, in such a difficult situation, Guangzhou team can play such content, has been greatly unexpected by the outside world.
No wonder in the post-match comments, Xu Yang gave Zheng Zhi a high evaluation, thinking that with his platoon and command in this game, he could score high scores.
Of course, Zheng Zhi's coaching road has just begun, and there are still great deficiencies, which also means that there is a lot of room for improvement.
It is worth mentioning that after losing the ball, Zheng Zhi replaced 4 Evergrande Football School youngsters in succession at the end of the game, and used up 5 substitution places, which was not wasted at all.
