Since the Asian Cup, the Chinese women's football team has played the most contentful game, which is the answer of acting coach Wang Jun
In the second warm-up match between the Chinese women's football team and the United States women's football team at 9 o'clock this morning Beijing time, although the Chinese women's football team lost the game again 1-2, I did not hesitate to praise the performance of the Chinese women's football team.
The Chinese women's football team lost 1-2 to the United States women's football team
In fact, the first game of the American women's football team is still ugly, no different from the previous team, it really makes people feel a little desperate, which is the same for any coach and the same for any player, but after you watch the first half of the game today, whether it is the layering of attack and defense, or the coordinated protection between the players, and the coordination and cutting of the team, it feels like we have changed a team in just three days.
Players from both teams enter
Could it be that the Chinese women's football team has played a strong heart, but it is not. If you observe carefully, you will find that compared with the first game, the Chinese women's football team has changed its formation this time, from the formation of 442 to 5131, from the double striker of Tang Jiali and Wuri Gumula in the first game to Tang Jiali single striker, with Zhang Linyan, Huo Yuexin and Yan Jinjin behind her, and the double back of Yao Wei and Shen Mengyu in the first game was changed to Shen Mengyu's single back.

However, the move that really affected the situation on the field was to put Jin Kun in the position of right back, and Jin Kun and Li Mengwen jointly defended the right side, and Jin Kun, who was born as a winger, was faster, completely making up for the defensive weaknesses in the first game, this change was obviously successful, and the attack on the left side of the American team in today's 90-minute game was basically dumb.
U.S. starting lineup
Of course, there is another change that needs to be mentioned is the appearance of left-back Shen Monroe, I think Shen Monroe's performance today gave a good answer to those who have been questioning her before, Monroe not only successfully completed the defensive task on the left side, but also let us see the flying wing that is active in the Scottish Women's Super League in the attack. In the case of injuries in the team, the main central defender Dou Jiaxing even if he could not play, the team's new backline still delivered a satisfactory answer, this targeted tactical arrangement is much more effective than simply putting center forward Wang Shanshan in the central defender position.

However, today's U.S. starting lineup made six adjustments, the strength is weaker than the starting lineup in the first game, this can be illustrated from the following data, the average number of appearances of the American players on behalf of the national team in the first game was 53 times, and it dropped to 38 times today, but in the face of the changes in the Chinese women's football team, they must have no plan, although the United States team still suppressed us on the field in the first half, but there was nothing to do about it, there was no substantial threat to the Chinese team's backline, even if the two goals after the second half were replaced with the main team, they were also different from the first game, the first game was a goal in the sports war, and today's game can only be scored from set-pieces.
The process of being equalized by an opponent
At the same time, another point worth noting is that we insisted on implementing the head coach's arrangement throughout the game, including the four substitutions in the second half, all of which were adjustments to the position, but there is one thing I don't understand is why Wang Shanshan was used to replace Huo Yuexin, if Wang Aifang can also play to feel the atmosphere of the competition, then this game will be more perfect.
Temporary Acting Coach Wang Jun
This main credit is undoubtedly due to the interim head coach Wang Jun, not only that, but we must not forget the person standing behind Wang Jun, Gao Qiming, he is actually the technical and tactical analyst of the women's U20 national team, it can be said that he is the military advisor brought by Wang Jun with the team this time. With a good tactical analyst, then even if this improvised Chinese women's football team is put together, we can still play a game with content and still create problems for strong opponents.
