Chapter 21

Lin Yi learned the night before the game that he would be in the starting lineup the next day. It seems that his performance was recognized by the head coach Lee Jang-soo.At the same time, Lee Jang-soo also wants to see if more midfield combinations will bring about more changes, and whether there is a chemical reaction.

"CCTV, CCTV, viewers and friends, Happy New Year, today is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and today I bring you the live broadcast of the final of the 2011 Lunar New Year Cup.

The two sides of the match are the Chinese Super League newcomer Guangzhou Evergrande wearing red jerseys, and the blue jersey is Tianjin Teda, also from the Chinese Super League.

The two teams eliminated Hong Kong South China and Ulsan Hyundai, a traditional strong team in South Korea's K-League. In the just-concluded third place competition, Ulsan Hyundai defeated Hong Kong South China 4:2 and won the third place.Today, I will give you a commentary, and at the same time, the commentary is directed by Xu Yangxu, who we are very familiar with. "

As the current CCTV football commentator, He Wei's commentary is quite satisfactory, not rigid or arrogant, which is more in line with the Chinese aesthetic point of view.

"Hello everyone."

As a guest commentator, Xu Yang rarely spoke except for the comments on the field.

"The players from both sides have walked out of the player tunnel. Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. Tianjin adopts a 442 formation today. The goalkeeper is Zhao Mingyan. The four defenders are Liao Bochao, Zoric, Li Weifeng and Cao Yang. The midfielders are Ma Leilei, Li Benjian, Wang Xinxing, and Hu Rentian. The forwards are Mao Biao and Yu Dabao. This lineup is not the strongest lineup.

"Yes, as the runner-up of the Chinese Super League last season, this season has increased the number of personnel in multiple positions. Tianjin is also one of the favorites to win the championship in the new season. Alihan also said in an interview about the goal of the new season that he wants to win the championship.

Therefore, Alihan will inevitably want to test the waters when facing the new Chinese Super League team.But I think Evergrande thinks the same way.

Although Evergrande is a newcomer to the Chinese Super League, it can be said that Evergrande is fully capable of gaining a foothold in the Chinese Super League and even qualifying for the AFC Champions League after the club has invested heavily in the introduction of many international players and excellent foreign players. Therefore, this match against Tianjin TEDA is also a yardstick for Li Zhangzhu to test Evergrande's level.They also want to test the water, and now it depends on whose water is deeper. "

Xu Yang is also very curious about this game, especially Evergrande, which has many players he is familiar with, and some of them have good personal relationships.

"Yeah, this game is an early rehearsal for both sides. Let's take a look at Guangzhou Evergrande's starting lineup, which is also 442. Goalkeeper Li Xiaoshuai, defender Sun Xiang, and Zheng Zi are arranged as central defenders. The central defenders are super rookie Zhang Linpeng and right-back Li Jianhua. In midfield, Yang Yihu, Yang Hao, Lin Yi, Wu Pingfeng, and forwards are still Muric and Gao Lin.

In this game, Lee Jang-soo boldly used the rookie Lin Yi who performed well off the bench in the previous game.Let's see how this midfield change works.Guidance Xu, what do you think of Lin Yi as a player? "

"I watched the last game, and I can say that Lin Yi contributed a lot to Evergrande's victory. As for this player, I can only say that he is amazing. He is very fast and in good physical condition. Due to his age, he will definitely grow taller.

Ji Dong's skills are also good, the most important thing is that he has a very good sense, whether it is offense or defense.Such a comprehensive player is very rare in China. His passing is very experienced, which is not like what this age group can do.Although the game lasted less than half an hour, his characteristics were outstanding.I am also looking forward to what kind of performance he will have in this game. "

The first time I started, I took the little caddy to the field, then shook hands with the opposing players and referees, and took pictures.Although he had experienced some of these procedures when he was in the football school, it was the first time that it was so formal, so it felt very novel.Sun Xiang won the coin guess. He chose to claim the ball first, and Tianjin picked the goal.

With the whistle from the head coach from Thailand, Muric kicked the ball back and ran forward by himself, and the game officially started.

Lin Yi found that the Tianjin team's formation is very organized. As a Dutchman and a former Dutch international, Alihan has the ability.

The formation of the Tianjin team is well maintained, with well-founded advances and retreats, and the various lines support each other without appearing chaotic. This is also because it is only after several seasons of lineup adjustments that they can have such a stable and efficient combat power.The advantage of Evergrande at this stage lies in its outstanding individual ability, and at the same time, it is young, energetic, and has good physical strength.

After nearly half an hour of trial, the two sides still failed to find a good opportunity. Gradually, the fight became more intense. In the first 30 minutes, both sides received a yellow card. Evergrande's Yang Yihu uprooted Cao Yang and got a yellow card.

Evergrande's first good opportunity in the true sense came in the 35th minute. At that time, Lin Yi pretended to break through after receiving a cross pass from Yang Hao, and suddenly sent a 45 long pass. Muric headed the ball from the edge of the penalty area. Afterwards, Yang Yihu kicked the goal when the opponent's defender lost his position, and the football was slightly higher than the crossbar.

Tianjin then tested Li Xiaoshuai with a long shot.

The two shots seemed to inspire the offensive firepower of both sides, and then the two teams fought against each other.

In the 40th minute, Li Weifeng took advantage of a corner kick to attack the goal and was blocked by Zhang Linpeng on the goal line.In the 42nd minute of Evergrande's fast break, Lin Yi sent a precise through pass. Unfortunately, Yang Yihu kicked the ball when he shot, and the football was destroyed and passed the baseline.

Evergrande had a corner kick. Yang Hao's tactical corner kick was cleverly passed by Muric to Yang Yihu who was in the back. Unfortunately, Yang Yihu couldn't shoot at all in this game.

With 1 minute of stoppage time in the first half, Yu Dabao in the fast break of the Tianjin team was almost single-handedly. Unfortunately, Lin Yi ran 40 meters and finally caught up at the edge of the penalty area. A clean tackle destroyed the Tianjin team's best chance.The first half is over.

"At the end of the first half, both sides had chances. In the relatively dull first half hour, the last 15 minutes were very exciting. Unfortunately, no one scored a goal. Let's see if the performance of the two sides in the second half will bring surprises. What does Director Xu think of the first half?"

"Objectively speaking, it is quite exciting. If we analyze the data, Evergrande has 49% possession of the ball and TEDA has 51%, which is basically the same. Evergrande has 6 shots, 3 of which are within the goal range, while TEDA has 5 shots, 2 of which are within the goal range. Both sides have 1 yellow card, which is why the referee is relatively loose.

On the scene, Evergrande had the upper hand. At least Yang Yihu's three shots alone were considered excellent opportunities. Except for Li Weifeng's header from the corner kick that was close to scoring the goal, TEDA's chances at other times were not very good. "

"Indeed, I also feel that Evergrande puts more pressure on the big brother Tianjin. Director Xu, let's talk about the players. How do you evaluate the players based on their performance in the first half?"

"Both sides performed well throughout the first half. Evergrande's Lin Yi continued to be amazing. In this game, Lin Yi sent several key passes, at least two of which were infinitely close to the goal. It is a pity that Yang Yihu did not bring his shooting boots today.

And Ji Dong also had a very exciting long-distance return to rescue today, and Yu Dabao's single shot was resolved by Ji Dong.He lived up to this starting spot, Lee Jang-soo made the right choice.

At the same time, I pay more attention to Zheng Zi. He is a comprehensive player, but I don’t agree with putting him in the central defender position, which greatly limits his ability.If Zheng Zi can be liberated in the second half, it will definitely have a miraculous effect.As far as Tianjin is concerned..."
