html defeated the United Arab Emirates U23 12:1. The national football team U23 brought a satisfactory ending to the U23 Asian Cup.
From the beginning of the game, the two teams played relatively cautiously and did not have fast offensive and defensive rounds. At the beginning, the UAE used a counterattack to score a goal, but it was eventually ruled invalid due to offside. Then, after the young men of the National Football Team U23 gradually adapted to the opponent's rhythm, they gradually played their own rhythm. Baihe Lamu, Tao Qianglong and Xie Weneng took turns to attack, helping the team establish a certain offensive advantage.
In the 24th minute, the national football team U23 took advantage of a corner kick, and Xie Weneng met the ball in the penalty area and scored with an angry shot! Help the national football team take the lead. Then the UAE U23 launched several counterattacks and created several good scoring opportunities. However, after entering stoppage time, the UAE goalkeeper played with fire. Liu Zhurun āāstole the ball and scored again. The national football team U23 won the half game. 2 goal lead.
Throughout the first half, the National Football Team U23 had a certain advantage in possession of the ball, but they created more threats than the UAE. The main offensive routines of the National Football Team U23 are defense, counterattacks and set pieces. The counterattack after stealing the ball is very resolute, especially the change of rhythm on the two wings, which makes the opponent's defense a headache.
The UAE did better. Their passing and conversion of the national football team were very accurate, creating at least two absolute scoring opportunities. Unfortunately, one was ruled offside and the other was slightly hesitant. In the second half, the UAE will definitely go all-out, but for the national football team U23, the task is very simple, as long as they defend well and be more determined when counterattacking, that's it!
Only 3 minutes into the second half, Ruan Qilong made a low-level mistake and his opponent quickly recovered a goal. After approached the score, the United Arab Emirates became more and more confident on the offensive end. Whether it was a positional attack or a quick counterattack, it created good scoring opportunities. The national football team was in front of the goal, and the one-goal advantage seemed to be in jeopardy. Xie Wenneng and Jia Feifan received consecutive yellow cards in passive defense to block the opponent's onslaught. The decline in 's physical fitness has made the national football team's U23 defense more passive, and returning to defense across the board has become the team's main tactical idea. After nearly 11 minutes of stoppage time, the National Football Team U23 finally won the victory with great difficulty.
Although the national football team u23 finally won this game, it was not a tragic victory!
If everyone is satisfied with the performance in the first half, then the second half will be our nightmare, and it will be the pain of the players' inner struggle.
Just 15 minutes into the second half, we saw that several players were obviously exhausted. For example, Tao Qianglong was basically walking and playing football. Another example is the defense general Ruan Qilong. While gasping for air, he suffered from severe hypoxia. When judging the landing point of the ball, there was always a big deviation, so that his opponents found a breakthrough from him many times.
At this time, the United Arab Emirates played more and more courageously. The team received yellow cards one after another. Firstly, it was to prevent the opponent's attack and interrupt their passing fluency, but to give themselves and their teammates a winning position and a chance to breathe. .
bluntly said that if the UAE's final kick was not so poor, then the final score would definitely have changed, and no matter how bad it was, they would not have lost.
Therefore, compared to the 2-goal lead in the first half, the embarrassment in the second half is what worries everyone the most.
Speaking of the U23 Asian Cup, this event is the sad past event that Chinese football least wants to mention. Since 2013, it has been held five times until this one, but the National Football Team U23 has never qualified!
Whatās sad is more than that. The main reason is that before this game, the National Football Team U23 had won only one game in total, which was 1 win and 13 losses! The winning rate is shockingly low.
āBefore this U23 Asian Cup, neither the media nor the fans were optimistic about the young men of the national football team. After all, in this death group, what capital does the National Football Team U23 have to score points? Japan and South Korea are strong contenders for the championship, and it can be said that they have already booked their qualifying spots. The United Arab Emirates U23 can also be regarded as half of the hosts. They are more familiar with the hot weather in Qatar.
The national football team U23 won this battle of honor (perhaps "battle of face" is more appropriate), and the team will be officially disbanded after returning to China. This disbandment is not a temporary departure, but a permanent separation. Because most of the players are already 22 or 23 years old, they will no longer be needed in the next U23 Asian Cup. Years of training and competition are over, and their own destiny is next.
's future will depend on their performance in the club. Whether they can be selected for the national football team again (to be precise, the official national football team) depends entirely on their own abilities.
