Reporter Lu Mi and special correspondent Zuo Rui report On March 28, the Chinese Super League rekindled. Zhejiang Greentown, which drew two consecutive games at the beginning, finally opened the door to victory in the new season with a hearty 4-0 - although the captain Frank, who scored in the first two rounds, was injured before the game, new signing Bupenza and teenager Wang Yudong both opened the Chinese Super League goal account.
In contrast, the situation of Wuhan Three Towns, which returned to the home stadium, was a little embarrassing, with frequent defensive mistakes in the all-Chinese class, resulting in a defeat before halftime. After swallowing three consecutive defeats in three rounds, it is the only team that has no results, how long will it take for the first win of the season for Three Towns, or even the first goal of the season?
Wuhan Three Towns' first home game, for which they have been practicing for three weeks, during which they have experienced two warm-up games, and the offensive effect is good, and the physical condition of the players has also recovered. In this game against the Zhejiang team, Martins sent four foreign aids, and Palacios, who had been substituted in the previous two rounds, also appeared in the starting list, but the backbone of the defense Park Zhizhu was injured, and the three towns could only sacrifice the all-Chinese defense, which also buried some hidden dangers for this lineup.
What is clear is that whether it is winter training or the interval that has just passed, Martins wants a fluid ground attack and an offensive aggression. At the beginning of the game, the two sides entered into a rapid offensive and defensive transformation without any temptation. The offense and defense, which originally interacted with each other, broke the balance because of the first mistake of the three towns. In the 4th minute of the game, the Zhejiang team attacked with a long pass on the side, goalkeeper Shao Yiliang made a mistake, and Bupenza took the lead in rewriting the score with an empty goal. Even though Shao Yiliang's timing and scope of attack were not right, the formation was too forward, so that he was too slow to retreat in the process of attacking and defending. This question is always with the game.
In the 24th minute of the game, the Zhejiang team seemed to have a calm attack, and the three towns defense made a low-level mistake, and Ren Hang's own goal put the team at a two-goal disadvantage. The two active mistakes should have alerted Martins, and the defensive players should have adjusted their state in time to strengthen their response to each other, but in fact the mistakes did not decrease, which led to the subsequent collapse.
Just after the own goal, and because of the problem of the backfield position, the Zhejiang team continued to expand the lead, and finally in the half-time stoppage time, the back line and the goalkeeper's attack error, so that the score came to 0-4, such a situation in the short history of the three towns, has not happened.
And what Martins wanted to play on the offensive end didn't really show up in the game. First of all, in the midfield, Three Towns lacks core players who directly dispatch the ball, and the offense basically relies on the transition of long passes from the backfield. After replacing Zheng Kaimu in the second half, the opportunity to get the ball in the midfield was strengthened, and the intensity of the confrontation was also increased, but if he wanted to rely on ball control and ground conduction to tear apart Zhejiang's layers of defense, it was still difficult to find a breakthrough, and he was always in a tepid state of loss, and the state of four goals in two games in the warm-up game during the break was gone
Although the three towns did not concede another goal in the second half, the game ended 0-4. However, the Three Towns defense sent a point, and Zhejiang missed the opportunity to continue to extend the score from the penalty, and they also had a counterattack that hit the crossbar in the final stage. After returning from the interval and training hard for three weeks, the problems of the Three Towns' offense were not solved, and the flaws in the defensive end were exposed, which was a bit of a big blow to the soldiers. After three consecutive defeats and still no goal, when will Three Towns really get out of the slump?
The Zhejiang Greentown team, which has experienced three points to one point on two promoted horses in a row, was full of firepower in Wuhan, and laid a huge score advantage in the first half that made the opponent unable to turn the tables.
The new international player Wang Yudong first created an own goal for the home team, and then used the advantage of position selection and speed to intercept the opponent's return pass, and beat the goalkeeper to the empty goal, becoming the hero of Zhejiang's victory.
After the game, the young man said that the team won the first victory of the season and scored his first goal in the Chinese Super League, which made him very happy. Regarding the situation of his early exit from the field after being stepped on, he said that the injury was not serious, and he did not think that Zheng Kaimu's foul was malicious, "Maybe he slipped at that time." ”
Bupenza, a foreign aid who also opened the Chinese Super League goal account, opened with a double cannon and scored a goal with his left and right feet. The fly in the ointment is that the Gabonese striker squandered more chances in front of goal than goals. Otherwise, Wuhan Three Towns' first home stadium will be even more embarrassing.
Head coach Caneda said before this round that he is looking forward to the team's performance on the offensive end after basically solving last season's defensive problems. This 4-0 score perfectly shows the strength of the team's offensive and defensive ends. What's more, his team showed a higher level of technical and tactical literacy than their opponents throughout the game.
After the impression of being unable to win against the underdogs was reversed in time, Zhejiang Greentown will face Shenzhen Xinpeng City at home in the next round, but their goal is only to "remain humble" while winning back-to-back games. After three rounds of undefeated, Zhejiang Greentown has quietly come to the top of the standings, and if it can "smoothly" win Xinpeng City on April 1, it will lay a certain foundation of confidence for their consecutive away games against Guoan and Shenhua.
