It is difficult for the Chinese men's football team to qualify 0-1, and Cheng Yaodong spoke after the game, and he still has his own plans

Late at night on April 16, in the first round of Group B of the U23 Asian Cup, the Chinese team lost 0-1 to the Japanese team. The goal came in the 8th minute. In the 16th minute, the Japanese team was dyed red and played one less, but the Chinese team also failed to seize the opportunity.

In the second half, the Japanese team continued to attack, and the defensive end was also consumed, and continuous substitutions were made. In the 46th minute, Xie Wenneng single-handedly pushed the goal, but was confiscated by the goalkeeper. In the 58th minute, Xie Wenneng broke through on the right side, and the ball was sent directly to the goalkeeper. In the 67th minute, Zhu Yue went straight to the penalty area, and the goalkeeper confiscated it directly. In the 69th minute, Makoto Kimura's header was deflected. In the 71st minute, Songmu Jiusheng hit the goal directly, Huang Zihao pounced sideways, and the ball went out of the bottom line. In the 73rd minute, Hu Hetao's corner kick came out, and the direct shot was held up by the goalkeeper. In the end, the substitute goalkeeper, 2-meter Yu Jinyong made a cameo appearance as a striker to rush, and the effect was average.

It feels a little scary, and what feels a little incredible is the coach's speech after the game! The author flipped through the website and social media and found that Cheng Yaodong was interviewed twice after the game. One was on the sidelines after the game, and one was a press conference.

In the post-game interview, in the face of an interview with a portal reporter, Director Cheng commented: The overall strength of the Japanese team is higher than ours, and our normal play is a counterattack play. After they sent one man, I tried to set up and create some chances, but unfortunately I couldn't score. Overall, I am satisfied with everyone's performance. In the second half, we wanted to press on the wings, but the Japanese pressed us down the wings, and we didn't do that properly.

At the post-match press conference, Coach Cheng admitted that even if the Japanese team sent one person off, its strength was very strong. We pressed for a while, but we couldn't score. The pace of the second half was too slow, and the transition was not fast. The Japanese team tightened their formation, and our passing and control couldn't penetrate them, so there were not many ways to do it, and the tempo was slow. In the follow-up games, it is necessary to speed up the pace of conversion and play an effect.

Looking forward to the next round against South Korea, we are a super first-class team like Japan, and I hope that we can follow the established method and hope that everyone will be in good shape.

As for replacing the substitute goalkeeper and 2-meter big man Yu Jinyong, he will play a cameo as a striker. Director Cheng thinks that his header is very strong, and he had this idea before the game, and it happened to be used in this game, but the effect is half and half, after all, he is not a positive striker.

Cheng Gui did not deal with it, and some people even thought that he had no tactics at all, so that people could not see much hope. Maybe in this event, there is little hope of qualifying for the National Olympic Games. Expectations were a bit too high.
