Reporter Wang Wei reports Last weekend, the 20th round of the second round is the second round of the second stage, in the game on the 24th, after the first round of the top three Guangzhou Leopards, Shaanxi United and Shenzhen young people have not won, and from the situation of the first group, Guangzhou Leopards lead the second place 13 points, and the second and tenth place points gap is only 5 points, the outside world believes that the Guangzhou Leopard basically locked a place in the first place, and the other fierce competition.
After entering the first group, Guangzhou Leopards will play two legs against 5 teams from the northern region of the region. In the first round of the game, they drew 1-1 with Taishan B team away, and returned to their home stadium on the 24th, facing the tough Langfang City of Glory, coach Li Bing fine-tuned the starters, and confronted and intercepted the excellent Jin Qiang starters, Tang Tianyi, the best player in July who was injured in the last game, was substituted, and the U21 player Shi Lotian who was quite impactful started for the first time.
In this game, Guangzhou Leopards hoped to use possession to control the rhythm of the game, and after 30 minutes of the first half, they used many corner kicks to threaten the opponent's goal, but unfortunately failed to grasp them. In the second half, Li Bing replaced Xiao Zhi with the high point, and Tang Tianyi also came off the bench. However, due to the cautiousness of both sides, the final draw was 0-0.
After the game, Li Bing said: "The game at this stage is not so easy, the opponents are relatively strong, the overall passing and control of Langfang Glory City is better, and the pressure in the midfield is also good. In this case, offensively, we want to play behind the opponent. In the first half, the team created a couple of good chances but failed to capitalize on them, and in the second half, both teams were more cautious and ended up in a draw. Next, on the offensive end, the team needs to summarize and improve the two aspects of creating opportunities and seizing opportunities. ”
The circle believes that Guangzhou Leopard currently has several problems that must be solved. The first is how to create chances and beat the tough teams in the North End; The second is how to deal with the "injury wave", they have four or five players in the team who have undergone surgery; Thirdly, how to enrich the tactics in the style of play of the three central defenders. It was suggested that the two full-backs should provide an assist to open up the situation for the team. For a long time before, Guangzhou Leopard's three-center-back tactics were successful, and this summer window, the team introduced Zhang Hongjiang and Ning An, who have both played in the Chinese Super League, have rich experience, and have a certain combat power on the side. When facing the strong teams in the north and can't find the winning code for a long time, maybe you can give them more opportunities.
Although two consecutive draws, Guangzhou Leopards are still ranked first, with 50 points, and the lead has also expanded, with a difference of 13 points from the second place, and 12 points after the preliminaries, mainly because the team behind them is not strong.
Among them, Shaanxi United, which ranked first in the preliminaries in the North District, drew 1 and lost 1; Haimenke, who is second in the North Zone, lost both games. Shaanxi United has to solve the problem of poor away form, and Haimenke has been scored 8 goals by Guangxi Hengchen and Harbor B team in the last two games, and they have not scored anything. It is clear that the team from Nantong is having problems with their competitive form and mental build-up. In the next round, Ke Diyuan will play Guangzhou Leopards at home, which will be a test for both teams.
In addition, in the second round of the first group, Shenzhen Youth and Guangxi Hengchen also lost away, and their problems are the same as Shaanxi United, which is difficult to win away. On the other hand, Dalian Kuncheng showed a certain strength with 1 win and 1 draw in the first two rounds, reaching 35 points, and if it continues, they will pose a threat to other teams aiming to rush to the first division.
Lianglianping also gave Guangzhou Leopard a wake-up call, that is, he could not relax. At present, there are 8 rounds left in the second division, and Guangzhou Leopards must strive to win 4 games to lay a solid foundation for the team to complete the task of rushing to the first division.
