Reporter Liu Xiangyu reported that the absolute upset of this round of the Chinese Super League - Guoan, who drew 2-2 at home and the harbor in the 4th round, faced the promoted Ma Xinpeng City in the 5th round, and lost the game 1-2. ”
In the last round of the league, Guoan drew 2-2 with Harbour, the quality of the game was very high, Guoan conceded the goal in the second reading stage, and the good start of the new Gongti flew like this. 3 days later, Guoan appeared again in the new Gongti, this time the opponent is Xinpeng City, the latter has 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses since the start of the new season, and the promoted horse is full of "childishness". This is the three points that must be won in the Guoan plan, and all Guoan fans are looking forward to witnessing the first home win of the 2024 season.
The schedule was intense, with two matches a week, and Suarez rotated. The two wide attackers are newcomers, one is Fang Hao, who is starting for the first time, and the other is Cao Yongjing, who is making his debut this season, and Li Lei is back on the defensive line. The bigger change is in the formation, Guoan has played 343 in the past 4 rounds, and this formation has been controversial, so in this game, Suarez used 433, and the style of play has been significantly adjusted.
Although Guoan practiced 433 during the winter break and the last interval, and also used it in the teaching match, it was the first time in the main game, as if he was doing an experiment, and completely regarded the opponent as a "guinea pig", but Suarez forgot that the guinea pig will bite when it is fierce, not to mention, he really underestimated the strength of the opponent.
The course of the game was not at all as Suarez had thought. Guoan dominated the ball for most of the game, and Zhang Xizhe, who appeared in the midfield, performed well, but the number of times Guoan's attack really threatened the goal of Xinpeng City was very small, and in the face of Guoan's oppression, Xinpeng City did not panic at all, did not blindly retreat, but dared to press the attack.
The change in the score was even more unexpected, in the first half, Xinpeng City used a direct set-piece, and Li Zhi took the lead in breaking through the gate of Guoan. In the second half, Guoan He Yupeng sent points in the penalty area, and the game played for more than 60 minutes, and sure enough, he fell behind 0-2 at home, and Suarez on the sidelines kept thinking about it.
Although we always say that anything can happen on the football field, such a script is staged in Gongti, which definitely surprises most people - of course, if you watch the game, probably this surprise, Xinpeng did play better than Guoan, and Suarez's team couldn't even find an excuse like "bad luck".
When the two goals were behind, Suarez messed up, and his way of self-help was to pile up all the attacking players in his hands, and as a result, Lin Liangming played right back and Li Ke played center back.
Such self-help will not help.
Adebenro has always played the role of Mr. Adebenro, who can finish the blast on his own without the need for a system, and this time, he repeated his old trick to win a penalty for Guoan. It wasn't until injury time that Guoan scored a penalty by Zhang Xizhe to pull one back.
More than 15 minutes of stoppage time were added to the game, but no save was made. By the time the final whistle blew, the Guoan players were either wooden or in pain, and some of the fans had already left the stadium early. 1-2, Guoan's first loss of the season, occurred in Xingongti, in a game against promoted horses.
In the whole game, what was impressive was Xinpeng City's No. 7 foreign aid Andrade, his ability was obviously higher than that of other players on the field, and the Brazilians gave a wonderful performance, including the last moment on the turf can also "carp straight"; As for Guoan, there are no impressive memory points, and it seems that I don't know what the problem is, because everything is a problem.
In the first 3 rounds of the league, Guoan did not concede a goal, and in the last two rounds of home games, Guoan conceded 4 goals. The offense can't be opened, the defense trembles, and if it goes on like this, I'm afraid of a vicious circle.
It's been 5 games, except for playing Harbour, the other 4 games are really awkward, it makes no sense to discuss the three-center-back or four-back system, and the people who play are not comfortable. What can be seen by the outside world, the players can feel it even more, and there is a tension spreading within the national security team. This uneasiness is reflected on the field, that is, the home defeat to the promoted horses, like a prank.
Is there a way to solve the dilemma faced by Guoan, the idealistic and stubborn Suarez? Four days later, they will challenge the leader Shenhua in Shanghai.
