In the 4th round of the Round of 12, the Chinese team did not have any suspense, losing 2-3 to Saudi Arabia, this game the Chinese team lined up a 3 center-back formation, which is a formation that the Chinese team does not use much, the result is that the three center-backs are set up, the paper paste defense line is general, and the opponent is exploded!
The three center-backs are Zhu Chenjie, Li Ang, and Jiang Guangtai! In this game against Saudi Arabia's super firepower, Li Tie's use of this formation can be understood, but in the actual game, in fact, it has not been used much, it was used against the Japanese team, on the training ground, I don't know if Li Tie often practiced?
When the previous 1-0 loss to Japan, the 3-center-back formation was worrying and not very skilled! This game against Saudi Arabia continued to use three center-backs, but also on the young people like Zhu Chenjie, this game, Zhu Chenjie became a big colander, the second goal conceded, the third goal was caused by his staring mistakes.
One game caused 2 goals conceded, goalkeeper Yan Junling was very angry, the midfielder also coached Zhu Chenjie, telling him of his mistakes, while the other centre-back Li Ang, his performance was also very bad, in the first half he was cut off with a mistake with the ball, the opponent hit the goal frame with a counterattack and almost scored, at the end of the half, Li Ang was replaced.
As for Jiang Guangtai, his performance is remarkable, but it must also understand a shortcoming of Jiang Guangtai: language communication is problematic, the three center-backs are paired for the first time, and it is certainly difficult for both sides to echo skillfully, which is also the key reason for the many mistakes in the back line, but unfortunately, it is difficult for the Chinese team to solve this problem in a short period of time.
Facing the Japanese team, the three central guards defended to the end of 0-1, the offensive end 0 shots, facing the Saudi team, the defense line of the three center-backs was paper paste, 2-3 lost to the opponent, the performance was very bad, the Chinese team's World Cup dream, thus shattered! It is time to prepare for the next World Preliminary Tournament in advance.
