Step by Step to Win

In the game against Pohang Steelers, Gao Shunyao came with the most confidence money, but what made Gao Shunyao depressed is that Tokyo only supported the steel park stadium for five minutes, and the gate was broken by POSCO.

Losing the ball at the beginning was a bit of a waste, especially when I saw how the ball was lost, Gao Shunyao was even more helpless: within a few minutes of the start of the game, POSCO launched a wave of fierce attacks. They came up with the fastest pace The game quickly raided, and almost accelerated without any adjustments, which made Tokyo quite uncomfortable. At the beginning of the game, the movement of the away game was facing a fierce attack before it entered the state, and the situation was not well controlled. In order to intercept the opponent, Kajiyama Yohei had to foul the opponent when he came up, and it was this foul that caused Tokyo to lose. ball.

After a foul, Pohang Steelers got the opportunity to set the ball in the front court. And they did not waste this opportunity. Their set-pieces were obviously rehearsed many times beforehand, and they all had a good estimate of how to move and how to attack. Relying on the opportunity of this free kick, South Korean player Lu Bingjun used a very beautiful direct free kick to pass through the wall and directly into the lower corner of the goal, making Tokyo extremely passive at the beginning of the game.

This lost goal broke Tokyo’s strategic deployment, and made Gao Shunyao a little amazed: the coach had specially ordered before the game, one of the advantages of this team is the set ball, but after the opening, Tokyo was still very fast. Lost the ball.

The biggest difference between Korean football and Japan lies in the essential guiding ideology of their respective leagues. Japanese football learns from Brazil. Emphasis on control and technology, rich in good midfielders and wing players, their foreign aid is generally to supplement forwards or defenders. Rely on these players to supplement their shortcomings. South Korean football is learning from Germany, emphasizing confrontation and overall. Their forwards and defenders have always been lacking. The Koreans do not worry about confrontation and running. Their weakness lies in the lack of sufficient changes in their midfield. Koreans are running **** the court, fighting for willpower, fighting for physical strength. They are not afraid of anyone, but they change their attack methods. They can't do anything.

The Japanese lacked tall defenders and forwards, while the Koreans lacked core players with organizational skills. In Manchester United's Park Ji-sung, he is more in the role of defending and supporting his teammates, and he went to the national team. But they have to take on organizational responsibilities because Koreans are really scarce of organizational talents.

Some Korean teams face this kind of problem by using a foreign midfielder to solve the problem. Some teams, such as Pohang Steelers, do not have external midfield aid, and their attacks are rather different. One of their three foreign aids is Japanese defender Kazushin Okayama, the other two are strikers, one is Macedonian Stevica and the other is Alessandro. Both strikers are tall and tall. Players with excellent header ability, their ability to compete for headers on the court is very strong. However, they also have the inherent problems of high center forwards: their skills and flexibility are simply not enough to withdraw to the midfield to provide support, which has formed POSCO's unique offensive method.

Because there is no good enough foreign midfielder. The Pohang Steelers team has this problem: their ground ball offense is not smooth, and even on their home court, they don't have much control over the ball. But when they encounter such details as set-pieces, they can play well. They defeated many strong teams, relying on the details, rather than outstanding strength.

Pohang Steelers was in the AFC Champions League last year. Not known for being strong, the advantage of their playing is their ability to cope. The fighting spirit of the game was high, and in many matches of close strength, they all survived to the end. For such an opponent, Tokyo’s original intention is that it is best to hold 90 minutes and not to lose the ball, but whoever wants it, things are so unexpected.

Such mistakes should not be made. Before the team came, they had asked a lot to be careful of their set-pieces. The team scored two goals in the AFC Champions League final. One was a direct free kick and the other was a header goal after a free kick was dropped into the penalty area. In addition to these two goals, they also have a positioning. The header was offside. It can be said that the set-piece is their absolute strength. Knowing that the opponent has this advantage, they have broken the door. Tokyo can only blame himself for lack of preparation.

After all, Asian champions have the level of Asian champions, they are still quite capable, and scoring goals is not a surprise. Moreover, Korean football is really different from Japanese football. There are also obvious differences in what they play. After scoring a goal, Gao Shunyao quickly realized this difference.

Losing the ball in the opening game broke Tokyo's plan. In order to score points, they also had to rush out. The change in Tokyo's plan is also an opportunity for Gao Shunyao, because once Tokyo starts to attack, his opportunities will increase.

Although he lost the ball at the beginning, Gao Shunyao still has great confidence in defeating his opponent: Although Pohang Steel is strong, it is not completely flawless. With their tactics like this, what they fear most is naturally a team that is stronger than them: In fact, in the first round of the group stage, Adelaide United relied on their excellent physical advantage to kill POSCO with a lore. , Got 3 points. The defending champion lost the first game, and Pohang Steelers was also very angry, and now they have to win the game against Tokyo.

And they were lucky in this game, scoring a goal at the beginning of the game, which gave Pohang Steelers the upper hand. Although Tokyo had an advantage in the midfield, they did not have enough ability to break the game.

The Korean team is indeed inferior to the Japanese team in terms of technical cooperation, but it is much stronger than the Japanese team in terms of defensive hardness. Especially for a team at Pohang Steelers' level, the defense is extremely good. Although the opportunities increased after the Tokyo attack began, it was difficult for them to seize the opportunity under the stubborn resistance of Pohang Steelers.

Compared with Tokyo's style of play, Pohang Steel's looting is more fierce, and there is more physical contact. During the game, they hardly gave Tokyo any time and space to take the ball and pass it smoothly. They always forced Tokyo to play the ball quickly, which also prevented Tokyo from forming a good offensive.

On the court, after Nagatomo Yudu got the ball, he immediately wanted to attack, but before he ran a few steps forward, the opponent's press came. Nagatomo Yudo gave the ball to Hideto Takahashi in the middle of the road. After Takahashi got the ball, Kim Tae-soo behind him was already close to him, and he stretched out to grab the ball. Takahashi wanted to turn around and get rid of him, but just as he moved, Kim Tae-soo had already squeezed him down. Seeing that he couldn't get it off, he simply pushed him down.

The whistle sounded, and his action was obviously foul.

The foul place was near the midfield. Free kicks in this place were hardly threatening. Ishikawa Naohiro’s free kick also chose to hit the ball into the penalty area to find Gao Shunyao. He wanted to rely on Gao Shunyao’s high point to score the header, but in the penalty area, when Gao Shunyao jumped up, Kim Kwang-seop beside him was also with him. Jumped up. He hardly had any idea of ​​vying for the top, but just slammed into Gao Shunyao and pushed Gao Shunyao away.

His goal was achieved. Gao Shunyao failed to control his balance in the air, nor did he win the header. The football fell behind him, and the Korean player who stood in position had already cleared the ball out of the sideline.

The way these Koreans play football is indeed very different: Looking at them, Gao Shunyao also frowned: There is absolutely no such pressure in the J-League. The J-League will never have such a rough defense. Even if the whistle is not blown, they will consciously refrain from doing such rough fouls. The Koreans and the Japanese play two completely different footballs.

"Be careful yourself, these guys have dark feet." Kabore looked at the characteristics of the opponent's kick and couldn't help but frown.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Gao Shun nodded and answered with a smile.

Compared with the J-League, the K-League or the Chinese Super League is indeed more antagonistic. In these two AFC matches, Gao Shunyao also felt the difference in the AFC matches: these opponents are all antagonistic to Urawa Ruby and Nagoya Whale eight have the same specifications. Their bodies are very good, and they are also willing to fight. This is a situation that Gao Shunyao rarely encounters in the J-League. Generally speaking, J-League players like to play avoiding people. Such an initiative to find someone to play is quite rare.

However, Gao Shunyao didn't feel anything wrong with this. He himself is a player who likes to take the initiative to find people to fight against. He sometimes complains that his opponents are too soft when playing in the J-League. And now facing an opponent who wants to fight him, he doesn't feel uncomfortable, on the contrary he is quite happy about it.

Even if the opponent does not look for him, he will look for the opponent.

When Tokyo’s attack rushed up from the left, Nagatomo did not cooperate with Gao Shunyao who was pulled to the side by hitting the wall. Instead, he saw the opportunity and shot the ball through, let Gao Shunyao complete the raid by himself, and Gao Shunyao Jin Haoyi, who was next to him, also chased him at this time.

Nagatomo Yuto's pass is very measured. Although it is from the left, his passing route is on the right foot of Gao Shunyao. Gao Shunyao took the football with one foot~www.ltnovel.com~ and ran into the penalty area. Without even a little adjustment, he controlled the ball under his feet.

Of course, Jin Haoyi would not let him pass so easily. Although he was on the outside of Gao Shunyao, he immediately stuck to Gao Shunyao, trying to press Gao Shunyao and force him to pass the ball. His teammate on the middle road also immediately blocked the pass line, trying to block Gao Shunyao's line and completely seal the attack.

He is very confident about this, and Japanese players cannot withstand oppression.

However, Gao Shunyao is not a Japanese player.

He didn't choose to pass the ball at all. Facing the opponent's pressure, he ran into it by himself. He was half a head taller than the opponent, and he was a lap, and ran over like a tank. Before Jin Haoyi had time to react, he was suddenly hit by Gao Shunyao and flew out!

Never thought that his defense would be ended in this way. Jin Hao sat on the ground and watched Gao Shunyao's shot being stopped by the goalkeeper. He couldn't believe it for a long time.

J-League players actively seek physical confrontation when facing the K-League. What is going on? South Korean football's best confrontation ability, why doesn't it work anymore? (To be continued)
