In the competition with POSCO, Gao shunyao came with the greatest confidence. However, to Gao shunyao's dismay, the door of Tokyo FC was broken by POSCO after only five minutes at the steel Park Stadium.
It's really a bit of a loser to lose the ball at the beginning. Especially when he 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. As soon as they came up, they used the fastest pace of the game to make a quick attack. There was almost no sudden acceleration of any adjustment, which made Tokyo quite uncomfortable. Just at the beginning of the game, before the movement of the away game entered the state, he faced the fierce attack and did not control the situation well. In order to intercept the opponent, he had to make a foul to intercept the opponent as soon as he came up, which led to Tokyo's loss of the ball.
After a foul, POSCO got the chance of set pieces in the front court. And they didn't waste it. Obviously, their set pieces have been practiced many times in advance. They have a good estimate of how to run and how to attack. It was on this free kick opportunity that South Korean player Lu Bingjun scored the lower corner of the goal directly through the wall with a beautiful direct free kick, which made Tokyo extremely passive at the beginning of the game.
This goal broke the strategic plan of Tokyo FC, and also made Gao shunyao praise: before the game, the coach specially told him that one of the advantages of this team is the set piece, but I didn't expect that after the opening, Tokyo still lost the ball very soon.
The biggest difference between Korean football and Japanese football lies in the guiding ideology of the essence of their respective leagues. Japanese football is learning from Brazil, which emphasizes control and technology. It is rich in good midfield and wingers. Their foreign aid is usually to supplement forwards or defenders, relying on these players to supplement short boards. South Korean football learns from Germany, emphasizing confrontation and integrity. There is no lack of forwards and defenders. South Koreans do not worry about confrontation and running. Their weakness lies in the lack of enough changes in their midfield. South Koreans are running, willpower and physical strength on the court. They are not afraid of anyone, but they are not good at attacking.
The Japanese lack tall defenders and strikers, while the South Koreans lack core level players with organized ability. Park Ji sung at Manchester United is more likely to defend and support his teammates, but when he comes to the national team, he has to take on organizational responsibilities because the Korean people are really short of organizational talents.
Some South Korean teams face this problem is to use foreign aid midfield to solve the problem. And some teams, such as POSCO, don't have foreign aid in midfield, so the attack is quite different. One of their three foreign aid players is Japanese defender Yoshio Okayama, the other two are forwards, one is Macedonian stevica, the other is Alessandro. These two forwards are tall players with excellent heading ability. They have strong ability to fight for the head ball on the court, but they also have the inherent problem of high center: their skills After that, they withdrew to midfield to provide support, which formed POSCO's unique attack mode.
Because there are not enough good foreign midfielders, POSCO team has this problem: their ground ball attack is not smooth, even their home court, they do not have much control advantage. But with the details of set pieces, they can play well. They beat many strong teams, relying on the details, rather than outstanding strength.
POSCO last year in the Asian Champions League, it is not known for their strength, they play the advantage of their ability to deal with strong, high morale game, in many close to the strength of the game, they are the last. Facing such an opponent away, Tokyo's original intention is that it's best to keep the ball for 90 minutes, and it's best not to lose the ball, but who would have thought it would be so unexpected.
Such mistakes should not be made. Before the team came, they had been told a lot to be careful with their set pieces. The team scored two goals in the final of the Asian championship, one was a direct free kick, the other was a successful header after the free kick was hoisted into the penalty area. In addition to these two goals, they also had a set piece header offside. It can be said that the set piece was their absolute strength. Knowing that the opponent had this advantage, they also broke the door. Tokyo can only blame their lack of preparation.
After all, the Asian champions have the level of the Asian champions, they are still quite powerful, the goal is not unexpected. What's more, Korean football is really different from Japanese football. What they play also has obvious difference. After scoring, Gao shunyao soon realized the difference.
The loss of the ball in the opening broke Tokyo's plan. In order to score, they also have to rush out. The change of Tokyo's plan is also an opportunity for Gao shunyao, because once Tokyo begins to attack, his chances will increase.
Although he lost the ball at the beginning, Gao shunyao still has great confidence in defeating his opponent: Although POSCO is strong, it is not without flaws. In fact, in the first round of the group match, Adelaide United relied on their excellent physical advantages to kill POSCO with a single winner and got three points. The defending champion lost the first battle, POSCO is also full of anger, and now, and Tokyo's competition, they also have to win.And this game they are more lucky, the opening goal also let POSCO iron has the upper hand. Although the attack out of Tokyo in midfield advantage, but for a time they did not have enough ability to break the situation of the game.
The South Korean team is not as good as the Japanese team in technical cooperation, but it is much better than the Japanese team in defensive hardness. In particular, POSCO team of this level, defense is extremely excellent. After the attack in Tokyo, although opportunities have increased, it is difficult for them to seize the opportunity under the tenacious resistance of POSCO.
Compared with Tokyo's play, POSCO's pressing is more fierce and physical contact is more. In the game, they hardly give Tokyo any time and space to get the ball and pass it smoothly. They always force Tokyo to give the ball quickly and make Tokyo unable to form a good offensive.
On the court, after Chang youyou got the ball, he immediately wanted to attack, but he didn't run forward a few steps, the other side's pressing had come. Chang youyoudu gave the ball to the middle Takahashi xiuren. After Takahashi got the ball, Kim Tae soo behind him had already stuck to him and directly extended his foot to grab the ball. Takahashi wanted to turn around and get rid of him, but as soon as he moved, Kim Tae soo had already squeezed his foot. He couldn't grab it, so he just pushed him down.
The whistle sounded and his action was obviously foul.
The fouls are near midfield, where free kicks are almost non threatening. Ishikawa Zhihong's free kick, also chose to put the ball into the restricted area to find Gao shunyao, want to rely on Gao shunyao's high point effect to score the header, but in the restricted area, Gao shunyao jumped up, at the same time, his side Jin Guangxie also jumped up. He had almost no idea of competing for the top. He just bumped into Gao shunyao and pushed him away.
His goal was achieved. Gao shunyao didn't control his balance in the air and didn't fight for the header. The football fell behind him, and the Korean player, who was in a good position, had already cleared the ball out of the sideline.
The way these Koreans play football is really very different: looking at them, Gao shunyao also frowned: such oppression is absolutely not in the J League. J League will never have such rude defense, even if the whistle does not blow, they will consciously not do such rude fouls, Korean and Japanese play two completely different kinds of football.
"Be careful yourself, these guys have dark feet." Caboret looked at the characteristics of the other side playing football, can not help but frown and say a word.
"Don't worry, I have no problem." Gao Shun nodded and replied with a smile.
Compared with J-League, k-league and CSL have stronger antagonism. Gao shunyao also felt the difference between the two matches: the antagonism of these opponents is the same as that of Puhe Ruby and Nagoya whale eight. They are all in good health and are willing to fight. This is a rare situation for Gao shunyao in the J-League. Generally speaking, players in J League like to play without people. It's rare to take the initiative to find people.
However, Gao shunyao doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with it. He is a player who likes to take the initiative to find someone to fight against. When he plays in the J League, he sometimes complains that the opponent is too soft. But now, facing the opponents who want to fight against him, he will not feel uncomfortable, on the contrary, he is quite happy about it.
Even if the opponent doesn't look for him, he will look for him.
When an attack in Tokyo rushes up from the left side, Chang youyou doesn't play with Gao shunyao who is pulled to the side. Instead, he sees the opportunity and makes Gao shunyao complete the surprise attack by himself. Jin Haoyi, who is next to Gao shunyao, catches up with him at this time.
Chang youyoudu's pass is very measured, although it is from the left side, but his pass route is on Gao shunyao's right foot. Gao shunyao crossed the football and ran to the inside of the penalty area. Without any adjustment, he controlled the ball under his feet.
Of course, Jin Haoyi won't let him pass so easily. Although he is on the outside of Gao shunyao, he immediately sticks to Gao shunyao and wants to oppress him and force him to pass the ball. His teammates in the middle, also immediately blocked the pass line, want to block Gao shunyao's line, completely blocked the attack.
He is very confident about this. Japanese players can't stand the pressure.
However, Gao shunyao is not a Japanese player.
He didn't choose to pass the ball at all. In the face of his opponent's oppression, he ran into it all of a sudden. He is half head higher than the other side, strong body, like a tank rolled over, Jin Hao had no time to react, was suddenly hit by Gao shunyao top fly out!
I didn't expect that my defense would end like this. As soon as Jin Hao sat on the ground, he watched Gao shunyao's shot being saved by the goalkeeper. He couldn't believe it for a long time.
J League players in the face of K League actively seek physical confrontation, what is the matter? South Korean football's most outstanding ability of confrontation, why can't it work?
