The FA Cup was a "brother derby" that ended with Hao Wei's victory over Li Xiaopeng. In this game, Hao Wei reproduced the god adjustment - in the second half, Duan Liu Yu replaced Liu Yang, liberated Delgado to the side, and let Li Xiaopeng's Wuhan players completely lose their defensive rhythm, and finally won 2-0 against the latter.
In the first leg of the third round of the FA Cup, Shandong Taishan "home" faced Wuhan. Due to Fellaini's injury, the Taishan team sent Delgado, Moises, Sun Zhunhao and Jia Desong to four foreign aides, and in other positions in the midfield, Liu Yang, Tian Xin, Ji Xiang and Sun Zhunhao started at the same time. Among them, Tian Xin suddenly preceded, Delgado ambushed behind him, and Liu Yang and Ji Xiang were separated on both sides.
Perhaps it is a very good understanding of the characteristics of the Taishan players, but also the Taishan team's previous playing style, this game Li Xiaopeng arranged a set of 352 formations for the team, such a set of highly targeted playing style also greatly limited the Taishan team's attack, and once made Hao Wei helpless.
However, Hao Wei showed his ability as a coach in the second half, replacing Liu Yang in the 50th minute with Duan Liu Yu, the former playing as a right winger after playing, while Delgado pulled to the left to replace Liu Yang, who had previously mainly played on the left. It was this substitution that changed the course of the game.
In the 60th minute, the Taishan team split the ball in the middle of the road, Delgado quickly inserted, glanced at the position of his teammates and passed the ball to the penalty area, Tian Xin jumped high to head the ball to break the deadlock, breaking the deadlock for the Taishan team. In the 73rd minute, it was Delgado again, he drove a free kick on the left side, accurately found Moises in the middle, the latter volleyed, the opposing goalkeeper saved, Song Long was alert to pick up the goal, for the team to lock the score to 2-0.
It can be seen that Hao Wei's substitution in the second half completely activated Delgado, who had previously been booed by fans as the biggest scrap, broke the defensive arrangement of the Wuhan team, and made the opponent's highly targeted defense become futile, which can be called the winner and loser of the game. Not only that, Hao Wei also arranged for Duan Liu Yu to withdraw the ball after the team scored and switched places with Ji Xiang. With Duan Liuyu's organization in the midfield, Taishan's attack became very smooth, revitalizing the midfield while completely suppressing the opponent.
Of course, due to the difference in cards between the two sides, the strength of the team is also far from the same, and the results of this game alone do not mean that Hao Wei's coaching ability must be stronger than Li Xiaopeng. To prove this, Hao Wei also needs to show a more convincing performance in the next cups and leagues.
