Both sides formed a 4-2-3-1 formation with a balanced offense and defense.

Just like Dutch clubs like to play 343, Chinese clubs, whether professional or amateur, generally like the 4231 formation. The biggest advantage of this formation is the balance of offense and defense.

It is not surprising that the Taishan team has such a formation. It is obvious that they adhere to Li Xiaopeng's consistent tactical thinking of "seeking progress while maintaining stability" and intend to play steadily and win step by step;

Quancheng's arrangement on Saturday is quite surprising, because their defense has always relied on hoarding heavy troops in the backcourt. In the last game against the Magic City Sanjin, they even all hunkered down near the penalty area and put on a display.

10-0-0 formation.

If this is the case against a team in the relegation zone of the Chinese Premier League, why do you use a 4-2-3-1 formation that balances offense and defense against the Chinese Super League giant Taishan?

Xu Yang said with a smile: "I have watched the videos of Quancheng's first two games on Saturday. Although they played defensive counterattack, they are not a team with particularly strong defensive discipline. The defense relies more on the accumulation of personnel and tenacity.

will, as well as the defensive ability of individual players. Now they have voluntarily given up on the bus-playing style. I don’t know what their purpose is? Maybe they want to grab the start. If they can get one ahead, they can set up the bus again, or they know that they can’t play no matter what. Instead of

It’s better to just live an ignoble existence than to fight vigorously!”

Congratulations to the poet, who is very popular in poetry. He used Xu Yang's topic to recite a poem from Li Qingzhao's "Summer Quatrains": "You are a hero in life, and you are a ghost in death. I still miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross the Yangtze River! Quancheng Saturday may have thought about it.

If you are addicted, you will die. But I wonder if their opponents will give them a chance to make a splash. Life can be lived like a drama, but it must not be lived like a drama. Like, it will be very interesting; if other actors do not cooperate, then you are very

It might be a mess."

Taishan team coach Li Xiaopeng also noticed the unusual play style of his opponent's formation. He couldn't help but look at Gao Yuan, who was sitting on the visiting team's coaching bench not far away, with an imperceptible smile flashing across his lips.

The first time he watched this team play was in the final of the Football Association Cup Ludong Qualifying Tournament, but compared to the game process and the score, the sudden large-scale violent conflict was probably more impressive. At that time, this

This team doesn't feel very strong to him, and it's not even a strong team in amateur football circles.

Later, in order to prepare for this FA Cup, he watched the previous two rounds of the FA Cup. He had to say that he was surprised by the team's improvement! This team seemed to never stop for a moment.

The pace of his progress constantly refreshes people's understanding of this team.

In particular, in the last match against the Magic City Sanjin, the tenacious fighting spirit and fighting spirit displayed by the team was truly amazing. In just a few months, they have grown into the top team in amateur football.

Strong team.

But, that's all.

Although this team has fighting spirit, passion, and characteristics, and occasionally has some weird routines in offense, it is still an amateur team after all, and some of the stubborn diseases inherent in amateur teams are clearly reflected in them.

There is no technique but no tactics, there is willpower but no physical ability. The most critical thing is that there is no overall awareness in defensive organization and offensive and defensive transitions, and there is a lack of rotation and position changes.

These factors determine the ceiling of a team and limit their top line and height.

These are the real differences between professional teams and amateur teams.

However, these do not affect Li Xiaopeng, as a famous Ludong football player, his appreciation for the young junior in front of him. It is not easy to lead an ordinary amateur team to this level.

Appreciation is appreciation, you still have to go all out in the game. The greatest respect for your opponent is to try your best to defeat your opponent.

Li Xiaopeng warned his players in the locker room before the game: "Don't underestimate your opponents just because they are amateur teams. All you have to do is use all your skills and treat this as a reporting performance. If anyone performs

Excellent, the coaching staff will reuse it in the next league!"

This promise made the young men who were eager to get a chance to play official games roar like hungry wolves with excitement.

Therefore, there is no doubt about their fighting spirit and they will definitely go all out.

Li Xiaopeng looked at Gaoyuan, and a famous quote by someone flashed in his mind: Anyone can have a brilliant victory, but only the strong can achieve a decent defeat.

Young man, we will definitely try our best. As for the result, it can only be decided by you!

But soon, Li Xiaopeng discovered that he was wrong.

The Taishan team took the ball to attack, and midfielder Cui Peng transferred the ball to the left. The left midfielder dribbled the ball forward quickly, but within a few steps, the opponent's defensive players blocked the front. And it was not one person, but two players with great levels.

They surrounded them, and not far behind them, there was another player protecting them.

If it's just one-on-one, the Taishan team's offensive players can easily break through with their skills and physical fitness, but facing the opponent's multi-person defense, the offensive players can't do it alone.

But it doesn't matter, it's all in the plan.

The offensive player quickly passed the ball back to the full-back Zheng Zheng who was receiving the ball behind him.

Zheng Zheng moved the ball to the center and passed it to Cui Peng again.

Although veteran Cui Peng has a stout body and is as fat as a ball, as an outstanding representative of the "85 generation of Chinese football", he has excellent overall view, vision and footwork. He transferred a long pass to the relaxed feet of the right wing.

Tactically speaking, this is the killer move of this wave of attacks!

The ability to quickly and widely transfer is a necessary condition to test whether a team's tactics are mature.

Many teams have strong individual abilities and can play together in a small area, but they are not a mature team with professional qualities, because they do not have the ability to pick the ball out of a small area and cannot form a large team through simple passing.

Strategic shift.

This is the important point why professional teams look down on amateur teams: they have technology but no tactics, they have a sense of coordination and no overall concept.

At this moment, Zhang Chi walked quickly with his arms in his arms, like a sharp sword piercing towards the hinterland of Quancheng Saturday's penalty area.

But within a few steps, a defensive player appeared in front of him.

Zhang Chi didn't care. The appearance of this defensive player did not show how quickly he could cover up the defense, but it probably just proved that the opponent's defense was loose.

When the ball moved on the opposite side, the player did not follow the overall movement in the direction of the ball in time, but stayed in place.

Not to mention that this kind of situation often occurs in amateur teams, even in domestic professional teams, some professional players with low tactical literacy and weak sense of responsibility also often make such mistakes.

Faced with such a situation, as long as you get past this defensive player, everything will basically be smooth sailing.

Without any hesitation, Zhang Chi made a half-circle around the ball with his left foot, stepped on half a bicycle, and then used his right leg to push the ball forward.

As the ball rolled forward, his relaxed body also passed by the defensive player like the wind.

Gone!

Just as Zhang Chi was running at high speed, thinking about whether to continue the attack along the wing or go straight into the middle, he suddenly discovered that there was a defensive player in front of him.

not good!

Zhang Chi is indeed a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. He is calm in the face of chaos and responds very quickly. He pulls the ball back violently, uses his body strength, turns sideways, turns his back to the defensive player in front, and at the same time protects the ball firmly.

Underfoot.

How could it be?! At this moment, how could a second defensive player appear here!

Before Zhang Chi could think about it, the defensive player behind him had already moved up and blocked him, preventing him from turning around.

The defensive player who was passed just now has already caught up.

The two people walked in tandem, sandwiching Zhang Chi in the middle.

Zhang Chi is also a very brave person. He did not panic. Instead, he spread his arms and slightly arched his body to protect the ball at his feet. He was waiting for his teammates to respond.

According to the usual practice routine, at this time the full-back should be close to him and receive the pass.

Sure enough, he saw his team's full-back moving towards him quickly.

Zhang Chi was very experienced in playing football. He suddenly tensed his muscles and leaned back hard. The defensive player behind him didn't expect that he would actively bump into him in this situation. He was caught off guard and was knocked back.

One step forward.

Zhang Chi was waiting for this moment. He seized this short gap and passed the ball out.

The ball unexpectedly passed between two defenders and passed to the full-back who rushed to respond.

But suddenly there were exclamations of "Oops" from the stands.

I saw the yellow-haired midfielder from Quancheng Saturday suddenly jumped out, intercepted the ball that rolled halfway, and then quickly organized a counterattack.

Zhang Chi was taken aback. He didn't know where Huang Mao appeared from. Did he just arrive by chance, or had he been waiting aside for a long time?

If it's the latter, then in just a short moment, three players from the opponent's defense appeared in this defensive area. The speed of this defense is also terrible!

Zhang Chi raised his eyes and saw that there seemed to be more than just these three people in the area. At this moment, several players were quickly dispersing from the area, opening up space for counterattack!

How can it be!

Just now, Zhang Chi clearly saw them following the ball and moving to the right side of his side. How come they were all in place so quickly!

And it’s not just one or two people filling in, it’s the overall movement of the entire defense line!

This team as a whole moves so fast!

Can such a defense really be accomplished by an amateur team?

Maybe this is just a coincidence?

The players of the Taishan team had a lucky guess.

But scenes like this appeared many times in the following games. Quancheng's defense on Saturday was highly unified in thinking, and their movements were uniform, like arms and fingers, and they operated extremely smoothly.

No matter how Taishan team passes the ball forward, left, and right, the opponent's defense can keep up with its own rhythm.

In addition to their overall movement being fast and unified, their rotations are also extremely smooth.

Although one's personal ability is not enough to guard offensive players one-on-one, there will always be teammates beside and behind him to fill in the position in time. With a three-legged confrontation, the positions are the horns of each other, forming a cluster advantage in a small area.

In the first 20 minutes of the game, the defense was airtight.

The team's defensive performance was unexpectedly good. Even Old Luo Tou, who was watching the game on the bench, murmured to himself: "These brats are in surprisingly good shape today!"

Gao Yuan, who was standing in the coach's command area, laughed secretly in his heart when he heard this. That's how many bananas these guys ate before the game! Those are all the reputation points I gained by risking my face!
