1227th The Most Negative Final!
In terms of statistics, the 2019 Copa America final staged in Maracana showed a trend that stunned everyone!
The possession rate of the Chinese team is constantly rising!
When the first 10 minutes of the game passed, the Chinese team's possession rate reached an astonishing 80%!
The Brazilian team has only completed two attacks in the past 10 minutes of game time!
At other times, the Chinese team did not attack, did not shoot, and only controlled the ball!
With seemingly pointless possession from the back, they wasted time and left Brazil in a dilemma.
Firmino is diligent and spares no effort to counterattack on the front line. Jesus is slightly inferior, but he is also constantly counterattacking. Everton, a young genius who has not yet left Brazil, is in the frontcourt Most of the time, I just stand in a good position and don't waste my energy to fight back.
Among Brazil's midfielders, Coutinho is not an engineer style. Sometimes he will actively counterattack, and sometimes he will stand in a good position and wait for changes.
Even though Artur wanted to fight back, he couldn't do it. Casemiro guarded his defense zone very peacefully, which was bound to make it difficult for the Chinese team's offense in the frontcourt.
Even though the Brazilian team is a country of offensive football, it is absolutely impossible to be as crazy as the back line rushing to the frontcourt to fight back!
This created a strange situation where the Brazilian team's striker was tired, the midfielder hesitated, and the backcourt watched from the other side.
The Chinese team shrank in the backcourt as a whole, and Zhao Fenghua's running range almost covered the area between the center line and the penalty area line in the backcourt!
He didn't need to sprint back and forth, but just received the pass from his teammates while running at an average speed, then kicked the ball under Artur's defense and then passed it to his teammates in a safe zone.
The Brazilian team is a bit crazy!
Coach Tite couldn't figure out what the Chinese team was going to do!
Don't want to win?
The boos of Chinese players from Brazilian fans in the stands became more and more harsh.
Situ Yunbing looked calm and determined.
It's not that he doesn't want to win, but the foundation of defense and counterattack is not to lose!
When the Brazilian team does not fight back,
The players of the Chinese team didn't pass the ball, they held the ball on the spot and waited for the opponent to come up and press.
"Uh... this may be an unprecedented picture in the history of the Copa America final, the Chinese team played an extremely negative football!
They don't have the slightest desire to attack, as if they are passing the ball in training. The Brazilian striker is the most active in counter-attacking, but there is an obvious loophole, that is, Everton's counter-attacking strength is not enough, which makes Abduhai Mitty was not under pressure.
We can clearly see Huang Zichang, Chen Binbin responding from the wing in our own half, and Zhao Fenghua running back and forth to become a bridge between teammates.
Unless the Brazilian team pays more players to participate in the counter-siege and siege in the frontcourt, I am afraid they will not be able to get the ball at all, nor will they be able to force the Chinese team to launch a threatening attack. "
The current situation is clear at a glance.
The Chinese team does not attack, and the Brazilian team's defense line is safe, but the time is passing by every minute.
If the Brazilian team wants to intensify their counterattack, there must be players on the side to contain Huang Zichang and Chen Binbin's supporting role, otherwise it may be useless even if Casemiro goes to the frontcourt!
But the Brazilian team is also very clear that if their sideways put forward pressure, then Wu Lei will definitely use the sideways to respond. Whether it is Zhao Fenghua or Huang Bozhou, as long as they can respond in the middle and complete a forward pass, then China The team will have a very good chance to pose a threat if they attack in the frontcourt!
Because of this, the Brazilian team can only stand still in the backcourt!
Weird balance, lack of exciting scenes, Situ Yunbing is calm and calm, but Tite gradually can't keep calm!
He began to understand what the Chinese team wanted to do!
The Chinese team is luring the enemy!
At least he thought so.
Once the Brazilian team presses up from the side, then the Chinese team's counterattack will have a chance to succeed!
Can the Brazilian team give their opponents such a chance? of course not!
Therefore, Tite ordered Coutinho, Arthur, Jesus, Firmino, and Everton to carry out a crazy counterattack in the frontcourt!
The Brazilian team has strengthened the counter-grab in the frontcourt, but this still cannot change the time-consuming ball possession of the Chinese team.
Because the Brazilian team's frontcourt counterattack did not form an effective defense!
Most of the time, I passively find that I am closer to the football, so I rush up to fight back, and when I fail, I walk back slowly, and so on.
Situ Yunbing watched the Brazilian players scrambling in the frontcourt, and he knew that the Brazilian team was in a hurry.
Because they have an advantage over the Chinese team from any point of view.
But the game has been out of Brazil's hands since the start.
The Brazilian team seems to be unable to use all their strength!
But now their striker has begun to intensify consumption, and there is also a midfielder!
Even if the current Brazilian team's striker is really too weak compared with history, it will definitely give the Chinese team a headache.
In 2002, Brazil's main striker was 3R, and it shocked the world at that time.
In 2006, Brazil's offensive system was a magic quartet, with Adriano, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Kaka. can win.
Since 2010, the Brazilian team's striker has been on the decline. Fabiano is the leader. Even though he is a very practical player, it cannot be concealed that Fabiano is a center that cannot even enter the European giants. .
In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the striker's strength fell directly to the bottom. Fred was not well-known, and in the end he did not become famous all over the world. Fortunately, there was also Neymar who supported the facade, plus a Hulk who could only abuse food.
By 2018, the Brazilian team's striker began to improve, but it was also limited, Jesus, Firmino, William, Neymar, Douglas Costa.
If you take them out separately, except for Neymar, if you compare the Brazilian striker 10 years ago and then forward, I am afraid that no one can compare with the striker at that time.
Even today, the Brazilian team still does not have a main striker who can make a final decision regardless of the big scene or the critical moment.
Firmino has transformed from a midfielder to a striker, and Jesus is not the main scorer in Manchester City.
In fact, it is clear at a glance if you look at it from another angle.
Arsenal's strongest scorer is not Firmino, but Salah.
Manchester City's strongest scorer is not Jesus, but Aguero.
Everton is not a goal-scoring shooter in Brazil.
Brazil's striker is very strong, but in terms of role, they may not be able to bring great lethality.
What's more, the Chinese team is still consuming them now!
In the 19th minute of the game, the Brazilian team's counterattack had achieved certain results. The Chinese team was forced to launch an offensive in the frontcourt and failed to play a threat. Thiago Silva easily completed the interception.
Then the Brazilian team launched a fast break to the frontcourt. Sandro made a fast break from the left and transferred the ball to Coutinho. Zhang Zhibang quickly intercepted Coutinho and the latter took the ball first. Everton was found.
Everton used Firmino's diagonal running position to cover the next pass and cut the ball across the middle of the penalty area. Before Huang Bozhou got close, he shot a volley!
The football flew straight into the middle of the goal, and goalkeeper Shen Jingjie held the ball in his arms steadily.
The generals of the Brazilian team were speechless, and looked at Eve with intriguing eyes.
They finally had an offensive opportunity. If they can't create an excellent opportunity, then they can also reorganize backwards!
But it was so easy to hit a non-threatening shot and return the ball to the Chinese team. I am afraid that the striker and midfielder will have to fight back for a long time!
The next picture was as expected by many players of the Brazilian team. The Chinese team still patiently passed the ball backwards in the backcourt.
Although this kind of inversion is passive, the attention of every player in the Chinese team remains highly concentrated at all times!
There can be no mistake in this!
The Brazilian fans are booing!
Officials from the South American Football Association and the Brazilian Football Association, as well as many famous names in South American football, all looked sad.
This is probably the ugliest game in the history of the Copa America final, right? !
What is the Chinese team doing?
There is nothing exciting about the game!
Brazil coach Tite showed a wry smile on the sidelines, and there may be a bit of ridicule towards the Chinese team!
Are you fucking kidding me?
If the teams all over the world are like the Chinese team, football is probably not far from death!
As the party involved, Situ Yunbing never changed his face.
Those boos could not affect his emotions and mentality. Before the game, he repeatedly reminded the players of the Chinese team: If they encounter boos, it can only mean that the Brazilian team is more flustered than us? !
Barcelona used to play this kind of football that made the opponent fans impatient with long passes, and the Chinese team is now doing the same. The difference is that Barcelona's inverse area is in the opponent's half, while the Chinese team is in their own half.
The former is positive and the latter is negative.
This is naturally because the former is to press the attack, while the latter is to defend and counterattack!
The Brazilian fans are impatient, the Brazilian coach smiled wryly, what will happen to the Brazilian players on the field?
When Cheng Renjun passed the ball, Jesus, who came to fight back, didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and the intercepting leg not only didn't stop, but also increased a little bit of strength!
Cheng Renjun was kicked to the ground by the opponent!
The referee blew his whistle to indicate a foul by Jesus, and then showed the opponent a yellow card.
Jesus expressed his innocence, but also showed a mocking smile.
It seems that he has more reason to look down on the Chinese team.
Before the game, the Brazilian team and the Chinese team may be contemptuous, which stems from their superiority in strength.
Now it is a ridicule to the Chinese team, thinking that the Chinese team not only has no strength, but also no ambition!
They played football like this, it would be better not to play!
In fact, Situ Yunbing still has other ways to play defensive counterattacks. For example, using the bandit style of Simeone coaching Atletico Madrid will definitely allow the Chinese team to make some progress in their record.
But compared to the path of wandering in the gray area, which might turn into violent football, Situ Yunbing finally chose a path of passiveness, forbearance, and a mentality of competing with opponents!
The Brazilian team began to show signs of mental imbalance!
