Mediocre to disappoint! The national football team still plays like this, and the round of 36 is fierce
Reporter Chen Yong reports On September 9, in an international A-level match played at the professional football stadium of Chengdu Phoenix Mountain Sports Park, the Chinese national team drew 1-1 with the Malaysian national team.
In this game, which is intended to "correct" and improve itself, the national football team did not improve the previous problems, but brought more problems, and the team's mediocre performance not only disappointed the fans, but also likely to affect the confidence of the team.
This is the fifth game led by Jankovic, there are still 3 warm-up games to play in the round of 36, on the 12th, the national football team will continue to play against Syria in Chengdu, if the national football team does not get rid of the mediocre performance as soon as possible, the November round of 36 may be fierce.
The starting lineup of the national football team in this game is: goalkeeper Yan Junling; central defenders Gao Junyi, Jiang Guangtai and Zhang Linpeng; wingbacks Li Shuai and Deng Hanwen; double back waist Wu Xi and Li Ke; Wu Lei, Lin Liangming and Axon are on the offensive end. In fact, in the game, Jankovic is more accustomed to using an asymmetrical formation, the formation of the national football team will switch between 343, 433 and 541, of which the attack is heavy 343, one of the wingbacks retreats to the 433 formation when defending, and Li Shuai will further recycle when contracting, biased towards the 541 formation.
Malaysia are not as weak as the outside world thinks, having beaten Thailand 1-0 in the Southeast Asian Cup and drew 2-2 with Syria on September 6, while the world ranking has soared over the past year, moving up 42 places from 178 to 136. The reporter also learned before the game that the national football team also attaches great importance to Malaysia, and does not think that Malaysia is a team that can be rubbed casually.
However, even in this context, the opening performance of the national football team is still sleepwalking.
In the first two minutes, the national team conceded the goal first, and although the goal was eventually cancelled by the referee as offside, in fact, the opponent's exquisite cooperation in the national football penalty area was only Halim slightly more than half a position before taking the ball and crossing. But this "lost the goal" did not make the national football team sound the alarm, only 9 minutes later, Malaysia quickly counterattacked, Halim received the ball on the right and directly shot low into the far corner, Yan Junling City Gate lost again, this time really did not escape.
The continuous penetration of the goal by the opponent is enough to prove that the national football defense is far less comfortable facing Malaysia today than the outside world thinks. In fact, in the 32nd minute of the game, there was a dangerous situation in front of the national football team, Malaysia's concealed direct plug almost deceived half of the national football team's defense, if not for Gao Jun wing fell to the ground to tackle the timely destruction, and would have left Yan Junling alone to face the opponent's single knife.
After a series of fears, the national football team finally knocked on the door of Malaysia in the 36th minute. Lin Liangming's self-made set-piece in front of the field, Wu Xi drove the ball into the box and was destroyed, Lin Liangming stopped the ball on the line of the big penalty area to adjust the strafing equalizer. With this goal, the national football team finally did not enter the dressing room with a score behind.
In the second half, the national football team continued to change personnel, including Xie Pengfei replacing Lin Liangming, and replacing Xu Xin and Wang Shangyuan with both backs. With a series of adjustments, as well as the decline in the opponent's stamina, it is also possible to play some offensive attacks.
Among them, Xie Pengfei was quite active, shortly after he came on the field, he had a long-range shot from the outside slightly deflected, and then another left pass accurately found Wu Lei, but unfortunately the latter's header was not within the goal frame. In addition, Xu Xin also had an attempt to peddle, which was considered to have created a certain threat. After the game, Lin Liangming, who helped the national football team score the only goal, also said frankly, "The whole team created a lot of chances, maybe just seize the opportunity and miss the goal, which is a pity." ”
In the 78th minute of the game, there was a more heart-wrenching scene, Li Shuai and the opposing defender player collided and fell to the ground, the teammate called the team doctor, and after the examination, the ambulance drove directly into the stadium to pick him up. After the game, there was news that Li Shuai underwent a detailed MRI examination after being sent to the hospital, and was initially diagnosed with a mild concussion, and a more specific recovery still needs to be continued in the hospital for observation.
In this game, the national football team had 67% of the ball, shooting 16-9, but only 4-2 on target. In terms of the actual performance of the whole game, the higher number of shots is actually not much of a threat, many are long-range shots that are not much threatening, and there are hardly many substantial threats in the first half and the first half of the second half.
Jankovic was also very dissatisfied with the game after the game: "In the first half we did not do well, the attack and defense were unbalanced, the motivation was insufficient, the first goal was conceded and then rushed to play back, the emotions were not well controlled, in the first half we can only say that we were lucky and did not concede the second and third goals. In the second half we made some changes, including a change in position in midfield, more penalties and some content. But from a football point of view, we don't deserve to win, and even if we can score in the second half, I don't think we deserve to win, and even if we score, because we win, we don't think it's a problem, which is the most dangerous. ”
After the game, there were also some boos, to which Jankovic said: "The fans are always the best, always give us the most support, so the boos after the game is understandable, from the first half we were too hesitant to move forward as soon as possible, the fans booed, so this time I will bear the boos of all the fans." ”
It should be said that Jankovic still gave more criticism to himself and the team's performance. Indeed, the national football team failed to give qualified answers from coaches to players in this game, and the international players were obviously not satisfactory in terms of technical and tactical level and mental outlook: in terms of personnel, many players in the league are actually very bad, but they can continue to occupy the starting line in the national team; In terms of rhythm, do not dare to speed up the rhythm of attack and defense, pass the ball forever slowly and step by step, do not say that the work does not contribute, it is almost the same; Defensively, knowing that Malaysia counterattacked sharply, it was loose and stunned at the beginning; In terms of attack, it is even more important to hit wherever it is, choosing the main attack on the wing, but not configuring the high point in the middle.
It can be said that in the case of insufficient absolute strength, the national football team has not been able to show technical and tactical characteristics and bloodiness. Regarding the match against Syria on the 12th, Jankovic said: "The performance in the first half needs to be corrected and corrected, and in the game against Syria three days later, we want to play out the corrected things. Only when we raise these issues openly can we correct and change. "This draw is destined to bring a lot of thinking to the national football team, and we can only hope that Jankovic and his disciples will really change in three days.
The World Preliminary Round is coming, and there are really not many opportunities for the Chinese team to warm up.
