On April 16, the regret of losing to the Japanese Olympic Team 0:1 despite having one more player fighting has not completely dissipated. April On the evening of the 19th, the Chinese Olympic team had to face another opponent they were unwilling to face: the Korean Olympic team. The poor performance in the first game put a certain amount of psychological baggage on the team. From a comparison of strength, the Korean Olympic team is not inferior to the Japanese Olympic team in any way, and even has an advantage at some levels.

In this context, Cheng Yaodong and his team must make effective changes, otherwise, the story of failure will happen again.

Psychological decompression

More tactical clarity is needed

The soldiers of the Olympic team are no strangers to the opponents in this campaign. As early as the previous preparation stage, the coaching staff of Cheng Yaodong conducted detailed analysis for the players based on the situation of the three opponents in this group, even down to each player.

However, the results on paper are ultimately shallow. In the first game against Japan, the immaturity of the Olympic team at the technical and tactical levels was evident. Losing the ball prematurely disrupted the team's arrangement. After that, although there was one more player for a long time, the "Married Class", which lacked systematic offensive routines, was trapped by itself. The quality of positional warfare organization was seriously insufficient, and the passing and receiving in the backcourt was severely lacking. The balls also failed to respond to each other properly. The final score of 0:1 was still thanks to the opponent's bad luck.

Therefore, for this match against the Korean Olympic team, the coaching staff must not only be fully prepared in theory, but also pursue practical results in the game.

Judging from the preparations in the past two days, the Olympic team first summarized the last round of games, especially analyzing the problems that occurred in the midfield and backcourt defense. From the perspective of player usage, Cheng Yaodong's coaching staff is still accustomed to arranging players with outstanding speed and running ability in the midfield and two wings. This is why the Japanese Olympic team did not use center players in the first game. In addition, in conjunction with the upcoming second round of the group stage, the Olympic team conducted a video analysis session to analyze the situation of key players.

In addition to regular preparations, what the Olympic team needs most at present is to improve the players' self-confidence. Before the start of this tournament, the boys were still very motivated and hoped to prove for Chinese football in the "Group of Death". However, the experience of the first game made them clearly see the gap between them and Asia's top teams, and their psychology will naturally fluctuate. This campaign is against the Korean Olympic team. If they carry psychological baggage early, the technical and tactical content will not be displayed.

In addition, Cheng Yaodong's coaching staff must be more sophisticated in the design of technical and tactical skills. Defensive counterattack is the team's basic tactic, but when to defend and when to counterattack must be clearly explained to the players. If an unexpected situation occurs like in the last round of games, the team must have a clearer response plan, and the players must be technically competent. The execution of tactics must be consistent so that the overall strength of the team can be brought out.

Of course, it is unrealistic to expect the South Korean team to send off one player in the opening game. In this campaign, the Olympic team should focus more on attacking its opponents and put aside the outcome of the game. As long as it can show confidence in progress, I believe the fans will be satisfied.

Strong reinforcements return

"Tai Chi Tigers" are coming with menace

"During the training camp in Doha, I watched all the warm-up matches of the Chinese Olympic team. We must be fully prepared. They have improved a lot than before. I think we should be better than before. In the past, we should treat the Chinese team more carefully, never underestimate Chinese football, and stay vigilant against them," the coach of the Korean Olympic team Huang Shanhong said before when evaluating the Chinese Olympic team.

Only Huang Shanhong knows whether his statement is a compliment or a smoke screen, but from the perspective of competing for the right to qualify for the group, the Korean team will definitely not have any reservations in this campaign.

In the first round of the group stage, the Korean Olympic team struggled against the United Arab Emirates Olympic team. It was not until Lee Young-joon broke the deadlock in injury time in the second half that they finally defeated their opponent 1:0.

In this campaign, if the Korean Olympic team scores all three points, the group points will reach 6 points, and they can basically lock in a qualifying spot.In another game, the Japanese Olympic team will face the United Arab Emirates Olympic team. If the Japanese Olympic team and the Korean Olympic team win at the same time, the two teams will join hands to qualify one round ahead of schedule. On the contrary, the suspense of qualifying for the group will remain until the last round, and it is still theoretically possible for the Chinese Olympic team to qualify.

It is worth noting that the Korean Olympic team is expected to welcome the return of strong supporter Zheng Xiangbin in this game. The striker who plays for Minnesota United in the American League is worth 2.5 million euros. Due to his late return to the team, he did not play in the first round of the group stage. After recent adjustments, Zheng Xiangbin's physical condition has met the competition requirements. From the perspective of technical characteristics, his return can improve the Korean Olympic team's breakthrough ability in the midfield and frontcourt, while enriching the team's offensive routines.

The Korean Olympic team inherited the characteristics of the adult team in style. In the first round, most of their attacks were launched from the ribs. Except for the unsatisfactory score, they created many opportunities.

Therefore, the Olympic team must further improve its focus on wing defense and try to reduce the time the opponent has the ball on the wing. In addition, the stranglehold in the midfield and frontcourt must be more active. After all, excessive retreat of the defense line will expose more gaps. Only when the midfielder plays a protective role in the defense line will the game not enter the opponent's control early.
