Vol 2 Chapter 98: Showdown: Mamluk (Part 1)

On the same day when the Chinese team sang loudly on the highest stage, Nigeria played against Argentina in a thrilling 3: 2 victory, but stumbling but extremely tenacious also stood on this stage. This is the second time the two teams have met in the group stage.

After the match with Burkina Faso, the Chinese team was determined to continue to perform the existing tactical play, and the experience of defeating Nigeria in the group stage did not require the Chinese team to panic. Come out, and after three games with the French team, Australian team, Burkina Faso team, this set of play has become more and more mature and mature.

After the Chinese team's tactics matured, the Nigerian team finally realized the truth of the group defeat: the Chinese team is not chaotic, but an intentional tactical choice! Or a kind of controlled "chaos". It is in this chaotic situation that Nigerian players have lost the execution of tactical discipline into personal combat. In other words, the Chinese team used its own controlled "chaos" and the contagious Nigeria became an out of control "chaos" "!

For Nigeria, it is no longer important whether the Chinese team deliberately creates such chaos and then seduce natural Chinese players to go it alone. The Chinese team has played consistently for four consecutive games, and its power is increasing day by day. Will not change the way of play, then what Nigeria has to do is to learn the lessons of the previous game, resolutely implement tactical discipline, and never allow it to be misled by the superficial confusion of the Chinese team!

His mother's Chinese team is so cunning!

But even so, the Nigerian coaching team is not quite assured, because they can only win by competing with the Chinese team's system in this tactical play. On the one hand, the Chinese team's play The method is crazy, and any accidents are possible. On the other hand, the Chinese team's play continues to improve and improve. The tactical level in the finals and the group stage is definitely different. In the group stage, Nigeria did not really have a systematic confrontation with the Chinese team.

Therefore, to win, Nigeria must not only adhere to its own play, but also strive to destroy the Chinese team's play ... And the Chinese youth also thought of this, but they were not sure what the other way to destroy their own lineup. Australia has tried full-court pressing, but the effect is very poor. In addition to the difference in strength between the two teams, playing full-court pressing is equivalent to giving up their tactical play, too passive, completely following the baton of the Chinese team Operational.

Three days later, at the Crawford Stadium in Port of Spain, the first three-fourth final was played, and Argentina faced Burkina Faso. Although there were more than 20,000 spectators on the scene, Argentina was still sluggish. In the end, Burkina Faso won 2: 0.

At 17:30 on September 30, 2001, facing the cool breeze of the Caribbean Sea, Crawford Stadium was full of spectators. It is conservatively estimated that there are more than 25,000 people. The entire Trinidad and Tobago capital, Almost a quarter of the population is here! Key figures of the government of Trinidad and Tobago, the vice president of FIFA, the head of the youth football committee, etc. also appeared on the stage, even including the foreign affairs agencies of the two countries in Trinidad and Tobago. people.

Compared with other teams, the audience is more curious about the special Asian champion of China Youth. In the solitary race ruled by white Europeans and African blacks, a yellow team, or a team that does not lack exciting scenes as long as the game is destined to be more eye-catching and sought after, and its commercial appeal The effort made FIFA rejoice.

After a short closing ceremony, the Nigerian and Chinese teams entered the game.

Today's referee is Cardo Batista from Portugal. Interestingly, the group match between China and Nigeria was also enforced by the smiling referee.

Wang Ai and the Nigerian captain Brown greeted the referee together, shook hands, guessed each side and returned to the sidelines. The World Junior Championship trophy has been solemnly placed on the sidelines, expecting its owner to lift it.

At 18 o'clock, Batista blew the start of the game.

The finals have begun!

In the tactical assumption of the Chinese team, try to launch a raid at the beginning of the game. If it succeeds, it is great. If it is not successful, you can also measure the response of Nigeria. As a loser in the group stage, it has a "backward advantage" and can make targeted arrangements for the winner's play. As a winner, China can only guess from nothing.

Therefore, the sooner you figure out the layout of the opponent, it is also good for the Chinese team.

Nigeria kicked off first. The front waist player got a big kick and got it by Zhou Haibin. He passed it to Guo Liang on the side. Guo Liang passed the midfielder Yin Liangyi. Yin Liangyi gave the ball right according to the tactical arrangement before the game. Wang Ai at the top of the halftime arc in Nigeria.

As soon as Wang Ai took the ball, Nigerian midfielder Opa came up to intercept it. Wang Ai easily opened the pass angle with a fake action. As soon as he got to his feet, he felt a strong pass from his shoulder and took two steps to the side.

Even in the state of sudden out of control, with a good sense of ball and keen reaction, Wang Ai did not lose the ball right. After giving the football to the corresponding Baihe, Wang Ai looked at Opa in surprise. In the last game, he was his opponent, but he was not so aggressive.

Wang Ai looked at the court and found that Chen Tao was treated similarly to himself, with a player around him, who was harassing at all times.

Not at the meeting, Wang Ai tried again. This time, it was even worse. On the sidewalk, Wang Ai was directly knocked out of the field. Wang Ai was 100% sure. The opponent used this direct and frequent physical collision to interfere with the normal operation of the Chinese team's frontcourt attack core!

Foul? This time of course it was a foul, but it was not worth the card! After all, Nigeria has no pedaling, no stepping, or even a malicious collision. It is just between the edges of normal body collisions, or it does not stay weak and does not let go when it strikes. It ’s like using their strong bodies to interfere with China. Organization of the team!

This can find the lifeblood of the Chinese state! Even if the Portuguese referee did not hesitate to give a foul, it would not help. Even the foul Nigerian player would take the initiative to pull up the Chinese elementary player who was knocked over to the ground. In the face of Nigeria's super strong personal strength, other Chinese midfield and frontcourt players cannot replace Wang Ai and Chen Tao.

Wang Ai is confident that he can get rid of all the young team's defenders with his own skills, but the premise is that the opponent is running the ball. If the opponent is running, even if Wang Ai is agile, it is impossible to avoid them all. Unless it is ... don't have the ball!

But this step has already been reached. How can Wang Ai be willing to give up the results of the collective hard work of all teammates?

For a time, China ’s state-of-the-art light soldiers attacked the tactical system, and for the first time encountered difficulties in system confrontation. The Nigeria team fully promotes the advantages of strong physical fitness and average age, sacrificing two midfield players to choke off the Chinese team ’s frontcourt threat maker, and the Chinese team ’s frontcourt and frontcourt face the threat of being cut off!
