Although Jordan was a bit passive in the last ten minutes and was pulled back by the Chinese team, the opponent was the seed team of the group and a superstar like Gao Xiaodong. Jordan fans were very happy to be able to take the lead.
When the Jordanian players returned to the dressing room, the Jordanian fans stood up and applauded for their wonderful performance.
When the Chinese team went back to the dressing room, more than a thousand Chinese fans also cheered for them. However, these fans were far away from the passageway. Among the noisy Jordanian fans, it was difficult for them to form much momentum by jumping and shouting.
However, the players of the Chinese team did not ignore the fans of the ten thousand mile expedition. They also waved to the fans on the way back to thank them for their support.
In the dressing room of the visiting team, coach Camacho has come back. The team has pulled back a goal. He is in a better mood, but his expression is still grim.
Summing up the first half of the game, Camacho did not hesitate to criticize the back line, especially Li Feng's mistakes. This time, Camacho did not save face for Li Feng and called his name directly.
Li Feng was very embarrassed, but he didn't dare to defend. From the match against Singapore, he made no less than three major mistakes and lost two goals. Camacho was able to continue to reuse him and let him start. This is a great boon.
Camacho not only criticized the back line, but also criticized the two back midfielders in the starting line, because it seems that the problem of the back line caused the loss of the ball. In fact, the back midfielders did not protect the restricted area effectively, and they did not cooperate with the back line. They also had to bear a lot of responsibility.
Huang Bo, Zhao Xu, and Zheng Hua, both of them, can't deny it. They all bow their heads to listen to the lesson of Camacho.
After criticizing the players who made mistakes, Camacho then talked about Gao Xiaodong's transposition on the court.
Although Camacho prefers to attack from the side and tear open the opponent's defensive loopholes from one line, Gao Xiaodong has achieved remarkable results in the middle and scored the goal. Camacho can only praise Gao Xiaodong for his successful transposition and turning the situation around.
The situation at the end of the first half was favorable for China. Normally, the head coach should continue to play according to the way he played in the second half of the first half. However, because Gao Xiaodong changed his position by himself, if he didn't make any changes, Camacho felt that it was detrimental to his authority and made some adjustments.
Camacho of course will not adjust the back line. After Gao Xiaodong's transposition to the middle, the defense of the Chinese team in the middle is obviously stable. Besides, even if Camacho wants to change, there is no suitable person to change the center back.
Because now the Chinese team is only pulling back one goal, the score is still behind. In the second half, the Chinese team must have attacked to try to level or surpass the score. Camacho made an adjustment in the front court. He replaced Yang Xu, the starting striker, and Yu Debao, who scored against Singapore in the last game.
Yu Debao got the chance to play again, and it was half-time, which was envied by others, because it means that Yu Debao is likely to be trusted and appreciated by coach Camacho.
However, most players don't think it's Yu Debao's strong ability, but think that Yu Debao is in the light of Gao Xiaodong. Everyone knows that Yu Debao is Gao Xiaodong's good friend. Camacho asked Yu Debao to play to find a helper for Gao Xiaodong.
Yang Fan is even more aggrieved. He thinks that Yang Xu is not the worst player in the front court. In fact, Qu Bo's performance is worse than Yang Xu's, and Zheng Hua is not suitable to be a winger, because Zheng Hua's speed is not fast, he has good ball control and is more suitable to play in the middle of the field.
However, Qu Bo is Yang Fan's hometown, and Zheng Hua is also a player studying abroad. He has a good relationship with Gao Xiaodong and Yang Fan. Yang fan can only complain, but he can't tell others.
The interval soon passed and the second half began.
Jordan didn't change players and was the starting 11 in the first half.
Jordan coach Adnan thought that although he was passive at the end of the first half, he was able to score two goals, which showed that the starting players and tactics were successful. He was passive only because the players didn't adapt to the changes brought about by Gao Xiaodong's position.
Therefore, Adnan believes that Jordan only need to do tactical fine-tuning is enough, there is no need to make changes.
The coach doesn't need to fix the chair. It makes sense that all chairs have no experience.
Yu Debao was noticed by Jordan's coaching staff because he scored in the game. Seeing Yu Debao on the court, Adnan immediately understood Camacho's intention and told his centre back to pay attention to Yu Debao and cut off the cooperation between him and Gao Xiaodong.
Jordan kicked off in the second half. Jordan was not in a hurry to attack. They were very experienced. They wanted to take advantage of the score and let the Chinese team attack. They played against the Chinese team.
After Gao Xiaodong returned to midfield, the pressure of the Chinese team's back defense was reduced, and both the full back and the center back dared to press on. This also allowed the Chinese team to form an overall oppression on Jordan, and made the Chinese team's front court closing down more sharp.
In the 48th minute, after the Chinese team got the ball right, it took Gao Xiaodong as the center and formed a clear thought of passing cooperation in the middle and front court. Finally, Gao Xiaodong quickly distributed the ball to Zheng Hua.
Zheng Hua swings over the full back who steals and takes a look at the restricted area. Gao Xiaodong catches the opponent's attention, but Yu Debao is unmarked. Zheng Hua immediately passes the ball to the middle of the restricted area to find Yu Debao.Yu Debao was a bit unprepared when he came on the court. He headed the ball in a hurry, but the top of the ball was not powerful and the arc was too high. The ball was saved by Jordan goalkeeper Jaffe.
Although Yu Debao's final goal quality was very poor, he created a good shooting opportunity at the beginning, which made the players of China team more confident. They were more aggressive and aggressive in the next attack.
In the 52nd minute of the game, the Chinese team's pressing in the front court caused Jordan's pass error. The ball was snatched by Zheng Hua, who immediately led the ball to the penalty area.
Jordan team panic, defensive line loopholes, no one to mark the inserted Huang Bo. Zheng Hua saw this acutely, he crossed to Huang Bo, Huang Bo stopped the ball in the front of the penalty area is a strong shot.
Huang Bo's shooting distance is only 256 meters, which is a good opportunity for long-range shooting. However, Huang Bo is not a long-range shooting expert, and his feet are not strong enough. Although his angle is very tricky, he still can't pass Shafei's ten fingers, and the ball is once again obtained by Shafei.
Jordan wants to fight back against China, but they didn't expect that the quality of China's attack is very high. Almost every attack can be converted into a shot. Jordan can't get the chance of quick attack and defense conversion.
It's not good for Jordan to play like this. With Gao Xiaodong's personal ability, the Chinese team has always created shooting opportunities. It's very likely that Jordan has not found a chance to fight back, and the Chinese team has already leveled the score.
