Chinese champion

Chapter 17 The National No. [-] Defense Line
The evening of March 1996, 10.

The players who had been fighting all day had already rested one after another, while He Jin was still sitting in his room, thinking about the formation for the next game.

The remaining two teams in the semi-finals had been formed the day before yesterday. BJ took advantage of the home court and beat Guangdong 3:2, while Shanghai maintained its usual safe style and used its strong defense to pull the Liaoning team 1:0. Get off your horse.

The Hubei team's opponent tomorrow is Shanghai.

Anyone who has watched the Shanghai team's game live will be amazed by the Shanghai team's defense.

Central defender Du Wei, with a height of 1.8 meters, has excellent jumping ability and explosive power. He can go up and down. In the group match against Sichuan, he completely froze Zhanfeng. If it wasn't for a small injury in the second half , I am afraid that Zhanfeng can't score goals, and his scoring ability is also very good. He scored two goals and his performance so far can be described as "perfect". His partner Xin Li is a typical flexible defender. With quick feet and strong stealing ability, he and Du Wei are a natural combination.

The two full-backs are twin brothers, Sun Ru and Sun Yi. Sun Ru is a left back, and Sun Yi is a right back. Both assists and defenses are perfect. Sun Ru is a free kick master and has already scored a goal. Sun Ru Yi is a corner kick expert, and the number of assists has reached three times. 80.00% of the offense of the Shanghai team was initiated by these two brothers.

What's more worth mentioning is their goalkeeper Yang Yong. He is only 1.7 meters tall. It is said that the height can reach [-] meters, that is to say, if it is on the basketball court, he can jump up and dunk.

Compared with the back line, the Shanghai team's midfield is much inferior, but their midfield is quite safe. The only weakness is probably the fear of pressing. This is also a common problem of the Shanghai team. Hu Bo, who is tall and fast, with a height of 1.7 meters and 11 meters, is not weak at the top, and his footwork is a bit rough. Liu Jun should be able to deal with him, but how Qiao Bin, who is 9 meters per [-] meters, can deal with it will make it difficult for He Jin. If Yao Le Zai would be a good candidate. Yao Le, who has experience in dealing with the faster and more agile Dong Yuzhuo, would be very helpful. Achilles' heel: Turning slowly, it would be suicidal to expect one of them to defend.

How to do it?

He Jin thought hard, but couldn't think of a clue.

He lit another cigarette, but didn't smoke it, letting the cigarette burn bit by bit between his fingers.

damn it!
It would be great if Yao Le hadn't been suspended!He was thinking irritably, and soon he stopped his own thoughts. It is impossible to go back to what has happened. It is better to find a way to save yourself than to blame others!
He thought blankly for a while, and countless thoughts floated up in his mind and were vetoed by him one by one. What to do, there are only a few people in hand. Although there are four backup guards, the main force has already lost two. Chen Xue is not bad, but he needs to make up for Chang Feng's lack. As for Xu Yongmin, he is only less than 1.6 meters tall, and he can make up for it by working hard as a full-back.

Suddenly he flicked his hand, and a pain came from his hand. It turned out that the cigarette burned to the end and burned his hand. He hurriedly shook off the cigarette butt in his hand, and suddenly his brows loosened, and an idea jumped out of his heart.

Zhao Lin!In the past few months, Zhao Lin has grown a few centimeters taller, and his height has reached 1.6 meters [-]. In addition, he is a defensive midfielder, and his marking ability is not weak. One, you must know that both Zhu Jun and Pei Wei are strong in technology and speed, so it is perfect for Zhao Lin to watch Qiao Bin.

The defenders are done, the midfielders are also fixed, and the forwards have no choice but Li Tong and Li Chao. Li Tonghao said that although Li Chao was the main striker last year, he still has a certain level of strength. There is a gap, but he has an advantage. His height is the tallest among the three forwards, reaching 1.7 meters three, and his impact is also good. Using him to deal with Du Wei can at least hold back part of Du Wei's energy!
To break through the No. [-] defense line of the youth team, it still depends on Pei Wei and Zhu Jun.

The next day, in the lounge of Xiannongtan Stadium.

"You have to understand your opponents today." He Jin looked around at the players, "Shanghai team is a veteran team. They were champions in A-A last year. Of course, I mean the adult team."

He Jin had a rare moment of humor during the pre-match guidance, and low laughter came from all around.

"Originally the Shanghai Youth Team was not a very strong team. They only entered the quarter-finals last year, but this year their senior team has no hope of winning the championship, so this time their youth team has concentrated the elites of three teams, especially their The defensive line is second to none in the country. We have already played the imitation practice yesterday. Li Chao, you are the main force today. He Wei will have to rest for two days before he can play. It’s a test for you that you can’t spare the energy to command the defense, Li Tong, you have to pull out a wide range and try to attract the opponent’s defenders, this is the task of you two forwards, understand?”

"Yes!" Li Tong and Li Chao replied at the same time.

"Pei Wei, Zhu Jun, and Zhao Junwei, the opponent's midfielder is a little weaker, so you have to show your offensive characteristics today, shoot when you have the opportunity, and use continuous offense to score goals. Han Xiu, what are you doing today? The task is mainly to defend, to help the defense, Zhao Lin, I give you a special task, you replace Yao Le to mark the man, the opponent's No. 11 is very fast, but I believe that with your ability, you should be able to do it."

"Don't worry, boss." Zhao Lin said.

He Jin stared at him fiercely: "If you are still so careless on the field, be careful and I will pick your skin off!"

Zhao Lin stuck out his tongue and turned around to make a face at Pei Wei.

"Captain Liu Jun has to deal with their number 9. Although he is taller than you, I believe in your stability. Zhou Bin and Chen Xue, you have to help the captain to stabilize the defense, understand?"

He Jin has never explained to the players so carefully. After all, if they win this game, they will stand in the Workers' Stadium. What an honor it will be!
The game was about to start in 10 minutes, He Jin waved his hand: "Go out, let me go to the game!"

At 1996:10 am on October 20, [-], the competition officially started.

The Shanghai team got the kick-off right. After the kick-off, they drove the ball directly to the back line and started to kick.

Li Tong and Li Chao forced the Shanghai team to fall quickly. After the pass reached Du Wei's feet, Du Wei observed the front and made a long pass!

The ball landed very accurately and flew directly to No. 9 Lake.

Hu Bo jumped up, nearly a head higher than Liu Jun, and gave the ball to No. 11 Qiao Bin not far away.

As soon as Qiao Bin stopped the ball, Zhao Lin forced him up.

Qiao Bin tried to shake Zhao Lin with a fake move, but Zhao Lin was unmoved. Qiao Bin couldn't see him, so he gave the kick to the left forward.

Zhao Junwei stepped forward to press, but the left midfielder of the Shanghai team did not stick the ball, and directly handed it over to the left back Sun Ru who stepped forward to assist.

Sun Ru broke through with the ball, Chen Xue tried to stop him, but he accelerated the breakthrough and made a pass!
Hu Bo jumped high and was about to head the ball, but a man jumped higher than him and picked it up in the air!
Wu Qi landed on the ground, stood up as fast as he could, and threw the ball to Han Xiu in front of the penalty area. Han Xiu passed it straight to Pei Wei in front. The Hubei team began to counterattack!

Pei Wei took the ball and saw that Sun Ru hadn't returned yet, so he passed a high ball with his left foot to Zhao Junwei on the right.

The ball was passed very well, spinning and flying towards the bottom line on the right. Zhao Junwei was chasing him, and there was a large open field in front of him!

Zhao Junwei finally caught up with the ball. He was overjoyed. He was holding the ball very well. It was just a little bit on the corner of the penalty area. Whether it was a breakthrough or a split, there would be a great threat!

At this time, he heard Pei Wei's voice behind him: "Be careful!"

A figure appeared beside him, breaking the ball away from his feet with incredible speed, Zhao Junwei staggered, and turned his head to see only a big number on the white Shanghai team jersey: No. 4!
It was Xin Li who broke the ball!
Xin Li took the ball with a big kick, Liu Jun rushed to the front of Hu Po and pushed the ball out, the ball fell to the midfield, Pei Wei caught the ball, two midfielders of the Shanghai team forced up, Pei Wei quickly turned around Concealedly sent the ball to the left, and the ball passed to Zhu Jun's feet.

Zhu Jun took the ball, sent the ball forward, and then quickly pulled it back, trying to break through from the left!
Sun Yi's feet were waiting for him on the left.

Zhu Jun had no choice but to pull the ball back. At this time, Pei Wei ran over, Zhu Jun made a cross pass and passed the ball to Pei Wei.

Sun Yi quickly pushed towards Pei Wei, but Pei Wei didn't stop the ball. With a push of his foot, it was passed to Zhu Jun who was running forward again.

Two over one!

With the help of Pei Wei, Zhu Jun got rid of Sun Yi, quickly went to the bottom, and made a pass!
The ball landed very well, Li Chao desperately wanted to jump up, but Du Wei pushed him, Li Chao immediately lost his balance, and Du Wei pushed the ball out easily.

The Hubei team's offense was not over yet. Li Tong got the ball outside the penalty area, but Xin Li was in front of him and blocked all his routes. Li Tong had no choice but to pass back.

Pei Wei appeared on the path of the ball and volleyed!

This is a shot from the left side of the center. The ball hits the lower right corner of the goal in a straight line. The angle and power can be said to be perfect.

He Jin was ready to cheer, but Yang Yong, the goalkeeper of the Shanghai team, made a beautiful side attack, punched hard with both fists, and hit the ball out of the gate!
He was smart enough not to catch it with his hands, because with Pei Wei's strength on the ball, even if he caught it, he would definitely let it go.

Yang Yong jumped up from the ground, and the first movement he made was to keep shaking his hands.

Du Wei walked up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yang Yong bared his teeth and said, "Damn it, luckily it was a fist, otherwise I would have hurt me to death."

Du Wei couldn't help laughing, this Yang Yong is really a guy who likes to play tricks.

Pei Wei was a little dazed. Generally speaking, his shots from a distance of 30 meters were pretty sure. The kick just now was almost perfect, but he was thrown out by this short guy. In addition, Du Wei's ability to control the air , Xin Li's steals, the Sun brothers' defense and assists, what a defensive line that makes people jealous.

Is this the number one defense in the country?
