On September 9, Beijing time, Chinese football finally ushered in a noteworthy match, that is, in Chengdu, the Chinese men's football team played a friendly match with Malaysia. Before the start of the game, the fans' attention to this game can be described as quite high, after all, Chinese football is now in an extreme trough, whether it is fans or the football association, they hope that the national football team can win the game in this game and give a shot in the arm to Chinese football in the low ebb. As head coach Jankovic, he is naturally under a lot of pressure, so he also sent all the good players in the starting line-up. The specific lineup is: 1-Yan Junling, 2-Jiang Guangtai, 3-Gao Junyi, 5-Zhang Linpeng, 16-Li Shuai, 25-Deng Hanwen, 15-Wu Xi, 18-Li Ke, 11-Lin Liangming, 7-Wu Lei, 9-Axon.
Unfortunately, it is disappointing that the national team's defensive organization in the first half was disorganized and full of holes. The entire defense could not effectively control the attack of the Malaysian players, and could not even be effectively defended in a 3v3 situation. Most of the goals conceded are due to obvious mistakes in the selection of positions and targeting by the national football defenders. In the opening 11th minute, Malaysia humiliated the national football team by counterattacking, making the national team's back line useless, and after the counterattack scored, we seemed to see the habitual loss of the national football team. Of course, in fact, Yan Junling as a goalkeeper has also exposed many problems. He performed very poorly on the counter-attack this time, choosing positions and reacting slowly. Although Halim's push was not too tricky, Yan Junling's speed was slow to get off the ground, the save range was too small, and the shot was directly run over. At present, Yan Junling's performance in the national team needs to be improved.
However, careful fans also found that when the ball was lost, Yan Junling also shook his head involuntarily, because he knew very well that it was a problem in his back line that caused the loss of the ball, and Yan Junling at this moment also expressed his dissatisfaction with his teammates with such actions. In addition, before losing the goal in this game, the Chinese men's team's offensive efficiency was also very low, especially when it was a kick, it was always unable to send the ball into the opponent's door, which was also the most difficult problem for the national football team to solve.
Of course, the national football team is playing at home after all, and after conceding the ball in the 11th minute, the Chinese men's team finally found the feeling of attack, and Lin Liangming's domineering long-range shot outside the box also fully shows that the improvement of the national football team in the offensive end has been effective. At the end of the first half, the two teams were 1-1. Although the national football team was fortunate to tie the score in the first half, in fact, fans who understand know very well that the current national football team still cannot solve the problem that the Chinese men's football team has been existing before, that is, the defensive intensity of the back line is not enough, and the methods and methods on the offensive end are not reasonable enough.
On the back line, whether it is Zhang Linpeng or Jiang Guangtai, their ability to recover is not strong, and when the team presses up to attack, in the face of Malaysia's sharp counterattack, they can only choose to defend with their eyes. In fact, I personally believe that it is not that they do not want to catch up, but that the ability is really unable to adapt to such a high-intensity international competition.
In addition, the offensive end is also the same, from the scene situation, the height of the national football player is significantly higher than the opponent, but in the tactical arrangement, he has always insisted on the ground short pass cooperation, and the advantage of the high-altitude ball cannot be played. So much so that every time he could not give the opponent high-intensity pressure when attacking, resulting in frequent counterattacks by Malaysia. Perhaps the goal lost in the 11th minute, Yan Junling's suspected dissatisfaction with his teammates, is a portrayal of the player's mentality.
