Super Marshal

The game restarts in the second half.

The two teams changed sides and fought again, without making any substitution adjustments to the player lineup. The technical and tactical play basically continued the situation in the first half. The South Korean team continued to control the ball, while the Chinese team retreated. Half-court defensive counterattack.

As the score was equalized at the end of the first half, the morale of the Chinese team was obviously much better than in the first half. The players' mentality became more positive and the tactics were implemented better, whether it was the overall movement or the queue. are more compact than in the first half.

The only shortcoming is that as physical energy consumption intensifies, players in local areas can easily fail to keep up with the rhythm and pace of Korean players, but they can still use the team as a whole to make up for individual shortcomings.

The South Korean team's consumption is also not small. They seem to have possession of the ball, but they are faced with the pressure of tough battles on the court. The frontcourt players are also running a lot. In addition, due to returning from overseas to play, their physical condition itself They were not in their best condition. After playing the first half, their physical condition was not much better than that of the Chinese team.

After the start of the second half, the South Korean team once tried to attack, but it was quickly resolved by the Chinese team.

On the contrary, in the 49th minute, the Chinese team launched a counterattack in the frontcourt. Gao Lin took the ball from the right and created a chance for a set kick in the frontcourt. The ball was sent to the back point. Zhang Linfan grabbed the spot and headed the goal, but slightly The top is high.

Afterwards, the South Korean team continued to launch an offensive, speeding up the tempo of the game through quick passes, hoping to use the fast tempo to open up the Chinese team's defensive position and create threats. However, the Chinese team's players also calmly maintained order under Gao Han's reminder.

In an offensive initiated by a left throw-in, Zhang Yuning grabbed the spot in the penalty area and passed it back to Wu Lei, who came in from behind, but the latter's diving dive pushed the ball high again.

The fast-paced offensive and defensive battle between the two sides made all the fans in the stadium very nervous, but no one was able to create an excellent scoring opportunity, especially the South Korean team. They controlled the ball but failed to create a threat. The more they played, the more they got worse. impatient.

In the 58th minute, South Korea passed a low and diagonal ball from the right and hit the Chinese team's goal directly. Sun Xingmin quickly stepped in and wanted to hit the goal before everyone else, but Feng Xiaoting reacted quickly and caught it in time. Block the ball before your opponent.

After Sun Xingmin got up from falling on the ground, he yelled at the referee Hassan, saying that Feng Xiaoting had made a foul just now. His expression was a little impatient and his attitude was not friendly. He was severely warned by the referee.

Then when defending the Chinese team's counterattack, midfielder Ki Sung-yong was eager to get the ball back and raised his foot too high and was stopped by the referee. Left-back Oh Jae-suk even fouled when defending the Chinese team's quick free kick and was called for a foul. A yellow card was awarded.

…………

…………

As the saying goes, insiders look at the door and outsiders look at the excitement.

Ordinary fans saw more excitement, but the Football Association bosses sitting in the stands saw the clue.

Football matches are closely linked to each other, and only after the second half did they truly understand Gao Han's intentions, and further understand why Gao Han is the world's top coach, not Stillik.

Putting down the body and playing defensive counterattack, this is Gao Han's big strategy in this game. Everything is planned around this strategy, and one thing he grasped is that the Korean team will definitely not be willing to be tied by the Chinese team at home.

Even if they can accept the draw, Gao Han's various pre-game momentum will make the Korean team unwilling.

An accident occurred in the game. Player errors caused the Chinese team to fall behind, and the balance of victory tilted towards the South Korean team.

But at the critical moment, Gao Han made timely adjustments and gave up his intention to counterattack in the second half. Instead, he grabbed a wave before the end of the first half, stole a goal, and evened the score.

This goal was extremely crucial and determined the trend of the second half.

It can be said that this on-the-spot adjustment reflected Gao Han's ruthlessness and determination, and he showed courage and courage at critical moments.

After the equalizer, the second half of the game seemed to have returned to the start of the first half, but the mentality of the Korean players was obviously worse than in the first half, because they already had the victory in their hands.

It is clear at a glance which of these two mentalities is more important, not being able to get it, or getting it and losing it.

It can be said that throughout the entire game, from the layout before the game to the adjustments during the game, Gao Han completely demonstrated the style of the world's top coach and his super ability to strategize. I believe that after this game, there will be no more Dare to question Gao Han’s level.

"I have a question, why didn't the team attack according to the original plan in the second half?" a Football Association boss asked strangely.

This should also be a doubt in the minds of many people.

Since the first half has been tied and the situation is back on the track controlled by Gao Han, why not attack in the second half?

"If I'm not wrong, it should be physical fitness. The wave of forward pressure before the end of the first half consumed the team a lot. Now the Korean team is desperately trying to speed up the tempo in order to compete with us. In terms of physical fitness, We have no advantage."

Li Tie's analysis has been recognized by everyone.

Reasonable allocation of physical energy consumption is something that all players and head coaches should consider.

"This is also the reason why Gao Han wants to vigorously promote the establishment of the training system for the club and the national team. If the physical fitness of our players does not reach the level of the four major European leagues, as long as they can reach the level of the Korean team, the Korean team will probably give up long ago. "

"Yes, we only have so much physical fitness. If we rush to attack now and exhaust our physical fitness early, even if we score a goal, we may not be able to defend it. Instead of doing this, it is better to defend and counterattack steadily and let the Korean team expose its flaws. "

"I just don't know what kind of adjustments Stillik will make now. It's been sixty minutes. He should be very upset now, right?"

"Haha, it should have been like this a long time ago. When China is playing against South Korea, when has the opponent's head coach ever been so angry?"

"I think it's more of a lack of energy. Facing a head coach like Gao Han, all the calculations are not separated from the opponent's calculations. It's easy to have the illusion that everything is under the opponent's control. I guess he must be very entangled in his heart now. Win and be afraid of losing.”

"But the beauty of Gao Han's strategy is that unless he switches to defensive players now, reduces his offensive investment, and stabilizes his defense, otherwise, according to the current situation, the Chinese team has a better chance of winning, and Gao Han will definitely have some options. trick."

…

The senior members of the Football Association in the stands were discussing with each other, and their expressions couldn't help but become relaxed.

As the start of the second half progressed, everyone finally saw Gao Han's strategic layout. It was clearly the South Korean team that controlled the ball, but they all gained confidence in the Chinese team.

This is especially true when they see the expressions and performance of the Chinese international players on the court.

…………

…………

How to choose?

Stillik was indeed in a dilemma.

He is very aware of the current situation. He cannot let the game situation continue like this no matter what. He must make adjustments.

The crux of the matter is, how to adjust?

Strengthen defense? Or strengthen the attack?

The current Chinese team is too tenacious and its defense is very well organized, making it difficult to break through.

The Korean team pressed forward as a whole, and the players were a little impatient. The gap left behind them was too large, and the Chinese team was always able to counterattack again and again. This was a big hidden danger.

If he could score a goal at this time, everything would be different.

After thinking about it, Stillik had to grit his teeth and make a decision.

Sixty minutes had passed. The more he hesitated, the fewer options he had.

A draw is acceptable to the Chinese team, but it cannot satisfy South Korea, and even the players are dissatisfied.

Therefore, Stillik did not have the courage to insist on his conservatism any longer.

Forward Huang Xican and midfielder Gu Zizhe.

…………

…………

"Huang Xican, we're coming up. It seems we need to step up our offensive."

Assistant coach Xiao Mu frowned and said when he saw Huang Xican walking to the sidelines to prepare for substitutions.

Gao Han nodded slightly and paid close attention to the Korean team's substitutions.

From the beginning of the second half, he has been waiting for Stillik to make adjustments and substitutions, because he knows that Stillik will definitely not be able to sit still.

The current situation on the court is a stalemate. The key is to see who can't sit still first, make adjustments first, and take the lead.

The adjustment for the Korean team is nothing more than defense and offense. Relatively speaking, Gao Han prefers that he strengthen the offense. The reason is very simple. With the current offensive strength of the Chinese team, there is basically no chance of a tough battle.

When he saw that Huang Xizhe had been replaced by Gu Zizhe, he immediately understood Stillik's intention. He turned towards Xiao Mu and said, "Let Zhang Xizhe and Hao Junmin warm up and prepare to play immediately."

Soon, the Chinese team also immediately made substitution adjustments.

Moreover, as long as Gao Han doesn't move, he will change two if he moves.

Zhang Xizhe replaced Gao Lin, and Hao Junmin replaced Yin Hongbo, who was physically exhausted.

Both substitutions were match-up substitutions, which looked more like replacing players who had exhausted too much physical energy.

…………

…………

"The Chinese team also made substitutions."

"Gao Han replaced Gao Lin with Zhang Xizhe, and Hao Junmin replaced Yin Hongbo."

"Before, Hao Junmin suffered from a cold after the team arrived in Seoul and was stopped by Gao Han from training. He was not scheduled to start in this game, but now he replaces Yin Hongbo."

"This midfielder's ability to pass and create opportunities is still very strong. As for Zhang Xizhe to replace Gao Lin, he should still play on the right side of the frontcourt. Gao Lin performed well in this game. The substitution at this time is probably due to physical exhaustion. .”

"It's just that we don't know. After Gao Han replaces two players, will the Chinese team's playing style be adjusted?"

Including Stillik, everyone at the scene had the same suspicion as the commentator, that is, why did Gao Han replace two players in one go? Is there any deep meaning in this?

Otherwise, with Gao Han's coaching ability and on-the-spot command, it would be impossible to do such useless work.

What's more, it's only more than sixty minutes now, and there is still nearly half an hour before the end of the game. It is definitely impossible to say that Gao Han has no ideas.

Stillik, the head coach of the Korean team standing on the sidelines, also frowned. He could tell that Gao Han made a targeted adjustment after his substitution. It was obviously a change made in response to his substitution.

In this way, Gao Han accurately predicted every move he made, and even made targeted arrangements.

So what should he do now?

Adjust again?

But he didn't know Gao Han's intention at all, how to adjust it? Where to adjust?

It’s better to observe for a while and find out clearly before talking.

But what Stillik didn't know was that his observation directly led to the Korean team's passivity on the court.

After Gao Han replaced two players in one breath, the team's counterattack style also changed, from the original pursuit of speed and efficiency to the pursuit of precision, paying more attention to coordination, and using the group to advance quickly to counterattack.

After discovering this, the expression of the assistant beside Stillik changed.

"This... they... practiced in training."

"What?" Stillik was shocked.
