Indeed, this is the final, not the group stage.

With the score behind, the Han Guo team will definitely not be able to set up a bus and barrel formation. They must attack and strive for a goal.

However, it was only a few minutes before the end of the first half. Therefore, the Han Guo team did not act rashly and continued to defend and defend until the end of the first half.

One minute after stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half, and both sides entered the halftime break with a 1-0 score, and the Chinese team temporarily led by one goal.

During the intermission, assistant coach Gao Hongbo asked Chen Qianjun:

"Now the Han national team is behind in the score, they will definitely attack in the second half. Then our defensive power is not enough! If Jiang Zhipeng and Wu Xi all attacked the center and frontcourt, there would be only three people left in our defender. Moreover, Zheng Zhi was still a midfielder who moved backwards, so he could not be considered a pure central defender."

Chen Qianjun shook his head and smiled: "We don't need defense. We will play against Han Guo team in the second half. With our strength, offense is the best choice."

Gao Hongbo said worriedly: "This is already the final. Most of the starting players start every game. I am worried that their physical fitness will not be able to keep up! Moreover, Han Guo team is famous for their strong physical fitness. Can our players really keep up?"

Chen Qianjun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I chose players with good physical fitness. Not to mention 90 minutes, even if I play in overtime, there will be no physical fitness problems."

If it were the Chinese team in the past, most of the starters who had not been rotated until the finals, there might be problems. Gao Hongbo's concerns make sense.

But this Chinese team will never have such problems. Most players have physical fitness over 80, and the lowest Yang Xu also has 79/79.

If you play in the top five European leagues or the Champions League, Yang Xu may not be able to cope with the World Cup. However, there is no problem with this physical fitness when playing in Asian games.

He did not ask Yang Xu to return to defense. Yang Xu just needed to push forward like a nail and make the back of Han Guo team dare not push forward and participate in the assists.

After resting for 15 minutes, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

The Han Chinese indeed launched a raid at the beginning of the second half, as if they wanted to take advantage of the start of the game that the Chinese players may not have entered the game yet to play a fast break.

But the quality of their shots is worrying.

In the 49th minute, front midfielder Nam Tae-hee broke through Wu Xi's defense in the middle and then divided into the side. Front forward Park Joo-ho received the ball and broke through Yu Hanchao, and then faced full-back Zhang Chengdong and got the opportunity to make a cross through the change of rhythm.

The ball flew over Zhang Chengdong and flew towards the penalty area of ​​the Chinese team.

Li Tingxi, the center of Han national team who is 186cm tall, occupied the landing point, took off before Zheng Zhi, and hit the ball.

Many excited Han Guo fans in the stands have stood up and are ready to celebrate the goal.

As a result, Li Tingxi's header was not strong enough under Zheng Zhi's interference, but flew high above the crossbar.

The fans of Han Guo team sighed and sat down, but the Chinese fans gave Li Tingxi an applause. Of course, everyone understands the irony.

When the Han national team was attacking, the Chinese national team did not passively get beaten. Except for defensive players such as Zheng Zhi and Zhang Linpeng, offensive players such as Yu Hi and Wu Sanshi did not retreat too deeply, but were waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.

Once the ball is taken, the Chinese team's offensive in full bloom on the left, center and right sides will be more fierce than the Han team.

Especially Jiang Zhipeng and Yu Hi, they have both dribbling and passing skills.

When Han Guo players were concerned about the free kick of the Chinese team Hao Junmin and were forced to play the bus and the iron barrel formation to defend the attack, the Chinese team's offense was like mercury, which made Chinese fans intoxicated.

In the 52nd minute, the Chinese team played a classic cooperation.

Wu Xi, Yu Hi, Yu Hanchao, Jiang Zhipeng, Hao Junmin, and Yang Xu passed 14 shots in the process of layer-by-layer advancement, breaking through the four Han Guo players. Then Yang Xu received the ball with his back to the goal in the penalty area. Wu Sanshi easily pushed the ball into the lower right corner of the Han Guo team's goal.

The defense line of Han Guo’s team was completely disbanded by the Chinese team's attack. He was stunned. In the end, even Wu Sanshi, a dangerous figure, forgot to keep an eye on it, giving Wu Sanshi the opportunity to easily hit the ball.

Wu Sanshi scored his ninth goal in this Asian Cup and helped the Chinese team lead Han Guo 2-0.

Chinese players and fans celebrated even more wildly.

Because everyone knows that 1-0 is not safe, and the opponent may score a goal at any time. But if 2-0, you will have to be much safer.

At least, this score has more room for fault tolerance. Even if the opponent is lucky and scores a goal, he cannot equalize.

Therefore, next, when Han Guo team, who was behind two goals, had to press forward in a more formation and attack in large numbers, the Chinese team played more steadily and calmly.

Anyway, the Chinese team players have modified their team cooperation and physical fitness attributes, so they are not afraid of spending time with Koreans at all.

Especially in the 67th minute, the Han Guo team, who had not yet achieved the goal after more than 20 minutes of attack, was somewhat physically exhausted and temporarily rested and wanted to take a break. As a result, the Chinese team wasted time in the backcourt.

Li Tingxie, who was at the forefront, refused to accept it and rushed forward to grab the ball. He rushed to the ball at the foot of his feet.

As a result, Zheng Zhi, Zhang Linpeng, Zhang Chengdong, Jiang Zhipeng, Wu Xi, and goalkeeper Zeng Cheng fell down in the backcourt and took Li Tingxi as a monkey for two or three minutes, which caused a burst of applause and cheers from Chinese fans in the stands.

Of course, it also caused scolding and booing from Hanguo fans.

In the end, Lee Tingxi's teammates Son Heung-min, Nam Tae-hee, Park Joo-ho and others couldn't stand it, so they pressed forward and joined the counter-attack ranks, which forced the Chinese team to pass the ball to the frontcourt and were not allowed to be walked again.

Although Li Tingxie was ridiculed during this monkey walk, industry insiders saw something different from the Chinese team's back foot.

First, Chinese players did not make any mistakes. From the beginning to the end, although Li Tingxie has been working hard, he has never really gotten close to the ball and has not put any pressure on Chinese players.

Second, the overall pass and running cooperation of the Chinese team is too tacit. At least, in Asia, no one can see which team has a better pass and running cooperation than the Chinese team.

Such a Chinese team is really desperate.

Now, what is facing Han Guoren is: two goals behind, the Chinese team players have higher personal skills, better cooperation, worry-free physical fitness, etc.

To break through these barriers and to equalize the score, the Han national team must make changes.
