Reporter Chen Yong reports Qilu derby, Shandong Taishan beat Qingdao Manatee with difficulty, the team's first away victory of the season, plus the previous 3-0 home win over Shenzhen, Shandong Taishan finally ushered in the first consecutive victory of the season. Shandong Taishan, who reached 14 points, returned to the top half of the standings.
In this game, the Taishan team made another adjustment to the lineup, Choi Kangxi adopted a 433 formation, Ji Xiang appeared in the left-back position, and the rest of the defense was Zheng Zheng, Shi Ke and Wang Tong. The three midfielders are Huang Zhengyu, Li Yuanyi and Liao Lisheng, of which Huang Zhengyu and Li Yuanyi are in the back position, and Liao Lisheng is in the front position. On the attacking end, Fellaini is in the center, Cressan and Liu Binbin are one left and one right.
After the opening, Shandong Taishan team created two attacks in succession, first Liu Binbin's cross from the right flank Fellaini's header was slightly deflected, and then the Taishan team played again on the right flank, Fellaini made the ball in the box to Cressan, and Cressan shot again deflected.
After Cui Kangxi took office, the current playing style of the Taishan team is very clear, the team passes through the organization of the midfield, using the cooperation and breakthrough of the wing to cross, the overall play is more concise than the previous relatively cumbersome 30-meter area possession, in order to ensure the grab of the point in the middle, Fellaini either appears in a position similar to the front waist, or directly plays the center, this game Fellaini is the center.
Before the end of the first half, Shandong Taishan finally broke the deadlock, Huang Zhengyu took the ball in the middle and hit a straight pass, Liu Binbin quickly inserted forward, received the former's pass decisively and shot with his feet, Taishan team led 1-0. Liu Binbin, who was previously absent due to illness, returned from this game and performed well overall, but he was replaced in the second half due to lack of physical fitness.
In the second half, the two sides were entangled in midfield for a while, and in the 67th minute, Qingdao Manatee replaced Forbes and Jiang Ning to strengthen the attack, and Sarric's long-range shot and Zheng Long's shot from the small penalty area all created a great threat to the Taishan team. As far as the Taishan squad is concerned, they are not enough to adjust the defensive line, and in order to ensure the quality of the defense, the team's formation is forced to recycle, which gives Qingdao Manatee the space to fully organize the attack.
Tarzan also had a chance by counter-attacking, and in the 71st minute, Fernando single-handedly struck, but he was not decisive in handling the ball, choosing to pass instead of shooting, wasting the opportunity to extend the scoreline.
In the 90th minute, the Taishan defense was tested again, Forbes was given an empty opportunity in front of goal, but his adjusted shot was held by Wang Dalei, who quickly turned around.
After the game, Choi Kang-hee summed up the game: "This is a very difficult away game, our players showed their due fighting spirit, won the game through hard work, the more difficult the game, the more it can bring confidence to the players, this game is just a goal to win or lose, it helps the players' mentality very much." ”
In the second half of the second half of this game, the Taishan team retreated, so Qingdao Manatee got more opportunities, is this an active choice or a passive response? Choi said: "The contraction is also because our players lost their fitness in the second half, not because we wanted to play defensive counter-attacks. ”
In this match, Hwang Zhengyu, Lee Yuanyi and Liao Lisheng three local midfielders jointly started, Choi Kang-hee said of the performance of these three players: "The three players have good mobility and good characteristics, and they are used for better Chinese Super League stranglers. ”
For the first time this season, the Tarzans have a winning streak, and the fact that the Tarzans did not concede a goal during the winning streak is actually very crucial.
After Cui Kangxi took office, the Taishan team played 3-3 away with Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, but at that time Cui Kangxi had not really run in with the team, it should be said that the last two games are the real implementation of Choi Kangxi's tactical intentions, from Choi Kangxi's post-match interview can also feel his philosophy, such as he specifically emphasized the importance of defense when talking about goals in the last round, this round even mentioned the words "midfield strangle".
In these two games, the tactical execution of Taishan players is still very in place, which is the most gratifying place, previously, the Taishan team's defense line continued to have a variety of low-level mistakes, and the zero goals conceded in the process of two consecutive wins was obvious progress, the once "lost soul" Taishan team is gone, and the Taishan team has initially returned.
Of course, the Taishan team still needs more adjustments if they want to really get out of the trough, after all, the Taishan team currently has only two foreign helpers, and there is a lack of more back-up in the backfield in this game. After this match, Taishan will play at home against Dalian people and away against Wuhan Three Towns, although the opponent is not in very good shape, but for Taishan team still need to concentrate 100% attention.
