Chapter 960 Brother 570 Chapter Seven Asian Cup ([-])

Japan's loss to the UAE, which is not as strong as their own, is not due to this factor. There must be some. Japan, which thought it could take the initiative, was slammed by the UAE shortly after the start of the game. This is proof.

After the match against Australia, Zhang Yuan also clamored to overthrow Little Japan. This indirectly shows that in his mind, the Japanese team is going to advance. As a result, the United Arab Emirates advanced. This matter still sounded the alarm in Zhang Yuan’s mind. .

Zhang Yuan also took the trouble to sound the alarm to the players during the internal meetings between training sessions!
"I said, are you annoying or not? You are worried every day!" The honest Gao Jun couldn't stand Zhang Yuan's thoughts.

"Hey, Brother Jun! It's not my thoughts! Think about it, we want to make history, the people of the country expect us to make history, the UAE is not strong, this is our good opportunity! But if you miss this kind of opportunity because of arrogance Is it a pity to have an opportunity?!" Zhang Yuan laughed.

"I know, we all know! Don't worry, everyone is looking forward to it and won't take it lightly!" Gao Jun said to Zhang Yuan seriously.

Zhang Yuan could tell from Gao Jun's eyes that at least Gao Jun was serious, his attitude was serious, okay, okay, it's not good to talk too much!
How did I become an old woman? !With broken thoughts, Zhang Yuan shook his head helplessly!
On December 12, the first match of the semi-finals, the match between the Chinese team and the United Arab Emirates started at the Newcastle Energy Australia Stadium in Newcastle.

According to the general public opinion before the game, the Chinese team is not a dark horse. They have proved their greatest ability in the World Cup. They can beat the hosts in front. In the matchup itself, he did not take advantage of it.

The UAE is really unpopular, and the arrangement of this schedule is also very unfavorable to the UAE.

On the schedule, the Chinese team has to finish the quarter-finals before the UAE, and get one more day of rest, while the UAE has one less day off, and the most annoying thing is that the UAE and Japan fought for 120 minutes. It is absolutely a lie to say that there is no impact human.

The chance of winning the cup is high. In fact, there are factors in this aspect. It is absolutely undeniable that this factor has an impact on the team.

Perrin believes that if the United Arab Emirates are smart, they will definitely choose the routine of defensive counterattack. In fact, the United Arab Emirates has adopted this method many times in this cup.

Under such a disadvantage, the UAE has no reason not to insist on such tactics, and their counterattack is very sharp.

Perrin also adopted a defensive counterattack strategy in this game. He was waiting patiently, waiting for the passage of time, and waiting for the UAE to give the opponent a fatal blow when there were physical problems.

As for Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan once privately suggested to Perrin that the team could focus on attacking and give the UAE a little color, but Perrin mercilessly rejected Zhang Yuan's suggestion, and he firmly planned to fight patiently with the UAE.

As a result, the fans at the scene were drowsy in the first half of the game. Many fans must be thinking about a question, what are you playing? !
The two teams adopted a defensive and counterattack posture in unison. As a result, in the first half, only the ball was flying around in the air. There was no midfield link at all. Everyone in the midfield was used for defense, and the pressure was very limited when attacking. .

Zhang Yuan has become the leader of the lonely tree again, but the Chinese team has a chance to score. Zhang Yuan didn't get many opportunities, but it doesn't mean that he has no chance. After all, his level is not what the forwards in the UAE can match. In comparison, Zhang Yuan found one or two opportunities in the difficult confrontation, and Zhang Yuan, who had shown his prowess in the previous few games, actually missed it.

Peilan couldn't believe his eyes either, if only Zhang Yuan could catch one, this game would be even more beneficial to the Chinese team.

In the first half, Zhang Yuan got a chance to make him more determined. If the midfielder can press up and give him more support, he will definitely score first. The defense of the UAE is not so strong, especially in the case of excessive consumption. It is entirely possible for the Chinese team to score first.

However, at the end of the halftime, Perrin still refused to change, which made Zhang Yuan a little disappointed, but Perrin had few problems with the tactical arrangement in the first few games of the Asian Cup, and Zhang Yuan really didn't have anything to criticize. Faced with the arrangement of the head coach, Zhang Yuan could only obey.

The head coach of the United Arab Emirates, Mahdi Ali, wants to make some changes. He is not unaware of the disadvantages of the United Arab Emirates. His defense is unstable and his physical fitness is inferior. He wants to take advantage of the Chinese team's lack of attention and counterattack to gamble, but think about the Chinese team's frontcourt There is also Zhang Yuan, who still let go of this idea. The UAE should have fallen behind 0:1 in the first half, and now it is not easy to maintain 0:0.

During the intermission, Mahdi Ali could only use the big dark horse mentioned by the outside media to motivate everyone and let the strikers fight bravely.

They have now been dubbed the title of big dark horse in this cup, presumably each of their players still wants to be black to the end.

The Chinese team is indeed as Gao Jun said, the big guys are actually not so arrogant now, and they are very focused. In the first half, the English long balls of the two sides rushed, and the Chinese team had more or less chances, but the UAE's shot was only Both times, both were away from goal and there was no threat at all.

After the start of the second half, since the two sides were still in a conservative posture, it was certainly not good-looking. As time went on, it was not until the 80th minute of the game that Pei Lan waved his hand and began to resort to a 433 formation. The two sides replaced fast horses. Forward, main attack!

Mahdi Ali also immediately made a change, replacing a striker with another striker with speed and impact. This obviously wants to take advantage of the Chinese team's attack during this period to counterattack the Chinese team.

However, his dream did not come true. Perrin's adjustments had a positive effect. Zhang Yuan became more active after receiving support. In the 82nd minute, he received a pass from his teammate and made a shovel shot in front of the goal, breaking through the goal of the United Arab Emirates .

This time was very difficult for the UAE. Mahdi had to take a risk to attack. As a result, his defense was even more porous. In the 89th minute, Zhang Yuan assisted Wu Ke to score another point. China beat the UAE 2-0 and successfully advanced to the final .

The strength of the United Arab Emirates is not strong, and the Chinese team won this victory, but they were not as excited as they were in the last game, as if everything was taken for granted.

"The Chinese team is very strong, and they put a lot of pressure on us! We are at a disadvantage in all aspects. Although we are eager to continue to create miracles, it is a bit difficult!" Mahdi Ali also had to admit that China The team really needs to be better.

"They have Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan is the best player in the world, we have to limit, so put a lot of energy in defense, unfortunately we still can't stop their goal! I believe the Chinese team will Finally won the championship of this tournament!" Mahdi Ali said convincingly.

Naturally, the Chinese team did not forget the people carrying people in sedan chairs.

"They are dark horses?! No, I don't think so. Their strength has proved that they have the ability to get this far. We are all in the same position. This game is very difficult. I am very happy to reach the final. Regardless Who is the next opponent, our goal is to be the champion!" Zhang Yuan said at the press conference.

Some reporters also made things difficult for Perrin, saying that the game was not good, and it may be the ugliest game in this cup.

Pei Lan has been in China for several months. I have heard an old saying in China that once you succeed, you will be dead and ugly. Well, to be honest, I admit it in my heart, but we just win, don’t we? !

"Ugly?! I very much disagree with this statement! Both of our teams performed very well and did not leave too many gaps on the defensive end. This is a tough and great game rather than an ugly game!" Perrin The tone of the answer is relatively peaceful.

Those who do not agree to the uglyness of this game are the hundreds of millions of Chinese fans who are far away in the country. They watched the game in front of the TV and finally advanced to the final. Many fans burst into tears. The 2004 Asian Cup was held in China , but the Chinese team eventually lost to the powerful Japan and lost the championship. After 11 years, can the Chinese team realize this dream? !
