A 0-0 game made the men's football team realize the reality! It was a pure fluke to get 1 point, and the referee was biased and could not do anything
On January 17, Beijing time, the second round of Group A of the men's Asian Cup began, and the Chinese men's football team faced the Lebanese men's football team. The 0-0 draw by Tajikistan in the first game also put the Chinese men's football team in a difficult situation, even if the third place in the group has the possibility of appearing, but at least to win to have a chance, the chance of a draw is slim. And the final score of this game was 0-0, which was another ugly draw. Throughout the game, the Chinese men's football team has something eye-catching, and Coach Sun Jihai has also praised Zhang Linpeng by name many times, and Liu Binbin, including Liu Yang's performance at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. Similarly, the Chinese men's football team also has many, many unsatisfactory details. In the game, Mr. Zhan Jun's words pierced his heart: Lebanese players may not have imagined that they could also play dominance in the game.
Let's start with some details. For example, at the beginning of the game, Xu Xin fouled first and directly gave the opponent the answer when Liu Yang came to help with the grab; For example, knowing that Lebanon had a super sideline thrower, Jiang Guangtai directly cleared the siege and put it out of bounds when no one forced him! For example, when the opponent threw a strong throw-in, no one went around the front card position until he played for almost 40 minutes, Liu Yang finally knew that he had to go around the front to mark people, and even got Sun Jihai's praise by name. Including Zhu Chenjie's aimless long pass in the first half, which was directly sent to the opponent's goalkeeper, Mr. Zhan Jun and Mr. Sun Jihai were collectively speechless. Lebanon formed several threatening shots, all of which were crosses to find high points, and the back three lineups all counted on Jiang Guangtai alone?
And there are a lot of shortcomings on the offensive end. To tell the truth, Wu Lei is really not suitable for playing as a starter, he can't rush up, from the first half a few times with the ball, he has no confidence to go forward with the ball, either looking for Dai Weijun on the left or Liu Binbin on the right, in Sun Jihai's words, according to the inherent model, if you don't give the opponent a dilemma, even if your teammates receive the ball, it will not be easy to deal with. To put it simply, the ball quotient is not enough, so he can only come off the bench to impact the opponent's defensive line with declining fitness. At the end of the first half, Zhang Yuning was very threatening with several attacks, provided that the Chinese team must have high-quality crosses, Zhang Yuning can be the fulcrum, but he has a confrontation advantage, which is easy to ignore.
Including in the second half, Zhu Chenjie's clearance ball went directly to the feet of the opposing player, Xu Xin himself ran with the ball for a long time, and almost hit the referee with a shot, which can only be described as "outrageous". On the one hand, he was in a hurry to play and his movements were deformed when the details were not in place; on the other hand, Fang Min, the players of the Chinese team obviously lacked self-confidence on the field, did not dare to hold the ball, did not dare to move forward, and in the first half alone, there were at least 4 times when the front court fell to the feet, and finally fell to the feet of goalkeeper Yan Junling. The most speechless thing is that in the middle of the second half, Wu Lei missed the shot in the face of an empty goal, and then was cleared by the opponent on the goal line! This goal belongs to 10 shots and 9 times must be scored, and Wu Lei ran into it.
Lebanon's goal in this game was to defend on the counter-attack, and their defense was mixed with a lot of confrontations, coupled with the South Korean referee's ignorance of the opponent's fouls, and the results were really good. This requires that the Chinese men's football team must not easily lose the ball, let alone blindly waste the ball in hand. Xu Xin's purpose of passing the ball many times was too obvious, so he almost told the other party that I was going to pass the ball here, and there were a lot of mistakes. Xie Pengfei, who was replaced on the field, still played anti-aircraft guns when the opponent's goalkeeper was injured and fell to the ground, and the Lebanese men's football team did not need a goalkeeper. Lin Liangming played for the men's football team, but lost his job at the club (Dalian announced its disbandment). In the last 20 minutes of the game, the Chinese men's football team pressed hard, but the level of the last kick was really amateurish!
Overall, the overall strength level of the Chinese men's football team may not be as good as that of Lebanon and Tajikistan. After the game, when Mr. Sun Jihai summarized, his words were still relatively euphemistic, thinking that the Chinese men's football team needs to pay more attention to details, and lacks some luck elements. But I personally feel that Lebanon did a better job than the national football team in terms of the quality of the counterattack, the maintenance of the defensive formation, and the tactical discipline of delaying time in the second half! They could have scored three points, but two shots were blocked by the crossbar! In addition, the South Korean referee gave Lebanon at least three yellow cards in this game, and all kinds of handball movements were not blown, but what can we do? Who let you not perform yourself!
Coach Zhan Jun bluntly said that in the final game against the host Qatar, the winner will definitely advance, and there is a slight possibility of qualifying if he loses, but if he doesn't score a goal, it is almost impossible to qualify. I also want to replicate the miracle of Portugal's three draws, and really don't put gold on your face. The striker is weak, there is no midfielder to control the ball, the defender is blindly down, and the ability to grasp key opportunities is amateur, even if it qualifys, the Chinese men's football team will be beaten, and it is better not to qualify. Teacher Huang Jianxiang said well, nominally the national football team is second-rate in Asia, but it may not even be able to beat the third- and fourth-rate teams.
