"What's wrong? He also participated in this year's U16 competition."

Zeng Zheng said casually, "At that time, I saw that he was much better than his peers, so I promoted him to U19."

After carefully proofreading twice more, the staff finally let Chen Tao leave.

After all the team members were compared, the staff slowly headed to the floor where the next team was located.

It is said that it was already midnight when the last team member was inspected.

For this reason, Yin Lak's players almost started fighting with this group of AFC staff.

...

"Good morning, viewers. What we are broadcasting now is the first game of Group B of the 31st Asian Youth Championship."

"China versus South Korea, I am the host Liu Jianhong."

"We can see that athletes from both sides have lined up to enter the stadium."

"As early as April, the new Chinese youth team led by head coach Zeng Zheng overcame all obstacles in the qualifiers and qualified for the finals of the Asian Youth Championship as the first in the group."

"As the defending champion of the last Asian Youth Championship, what kind of answer will the Chinese Youth Team submit in this Asian Youth Championship?"

"let us wait and see!"

"South Korea was eliminated by the Olympic team led by coach Zeng in last year's Olympic qualifying competition."

"In the just-concluded Asian Cup, we suffered another disastrous defeat 0-8 in the group stage."

"Although they advanced to the semi-finals in the end, they were still slightly inferior to the Chinese team that won the Asian Cup."

"At the press conference before the game, Zeng Zheng, head coach of the Chinese Youth Team, directly stated that he was confident enough to defeat his opponent."

"And South Korea's coach Cho Yong-zhen is also worried about whether his record of "invincible" will continue in his hands."

As the referee blew the whistle, Li Tianxiu gently handed the ball to Cui Duixu beside him, and directly inserted into the formation of the Chinese Youth Team.

Qu Bo and Yan Song also took the lead, rushing into the local formation and pressing their opponents in the midfield.

Seeing the overall movements of the Chinese youth team members, Zhao Yongzhen's frown never relaxed.

Since South Korea lost so many goals to the Chinese team in the Asian Cup, South Korea has rotated a large number of players from top to bottom.

He came to Tehran with the "Tai Chi Little Tiger" this time, and he also had a mission.

Qualifying from the group and entering the World Youth Championship are secondary.

The most important thing is to defeat the China Youth Team and let the shadow of "Korean fear" hang over the heads of the Chinese national team players again.

So after the game started, the South Korean players fought hard and attacked fiercely.

But it rained in Tehran a few days ago, and the weather has been very cold these days.

After arriving in Tehran, many East Asian teams were either acclimatized or suffered from mild colds.

Even after pre-game warm-ups, the players' bodies were not completely warm at the moment.

Weather and disease are secondary.

The most important thing is that the Chinese Youth Team moves as a whole and always maintains a compact formation, which is what gives Zhao Yongzhen the most headache.

Needless to say, the formation is compact during defense, but the defenders can also keep up with them in time during offense to maintain the integrity of the formation.

Especially in the two stages of transitioning from offense to defense and from defense to offense, the midfielders will immediately turn back and run to keep up, connecting the whole team together.

The reason a team performs like this is not because of how clever the head coach's tactics and formation arrangements are.

The key is that the overall quality of this team has reached international standards.

So what Zhao Yongzhen is thinking about now is not the quality of these players and how Zeng Zheng trained them, but why the Chinese team was able to select so many high-quality players.

This is the biggest gap between China and South Korea at present!

At present, the characteristics of South Korea are still very obvious.

As an old rival, Zeng Zheng easily resolved his opponent's three aggressive attacks in the opening moments while talking and laughing.

Soon, the game entered a tug-of-war for the midfield.

Zeng Zheng likes to ask the team to control the midfield, which is something that coaches across Asia know.

But knowing is knowing.

How to crack it, every coach does it differently.

Like South Korea, which has never been afraid of the Chinese team.

The method Zhao Yongzhen adopted was to use the abundant physical fitness of the South Korean players to engage in repeated battles with the Chinese team for positions.

In the 13th minute, right back Park Ji-sung suddenly dribbled the ball faster.

After passing through two people, he inserted diagonally into the hinterland of the Chinese Youth Team from the side.

Sun Xiang and Dewey teamed up, one got stuck and forced a stop, the other stepped up to stretch his legs.

The two cooperated perfectly and intercepted the ball in just an instant.

After successfully stealing the ball, Dewey immediately pushed along the sideline and passed the ball straight to Xu Liang in front.

This anchor, who was later known as "Xu Keham", received the ball, took a big step, and dribbled the ball forward. His speed was no less than that of Park Ji-sung who had just made a breakthrough with the ball.

The Chinese Youth Team switched from defense to attack very quickly, cutting off South Korea's formation in an instant.

Fortunately, South Korean defender Quan Caiyun desperately chased back and kicked the ball out of the boundary with a tackle, defusing the Chinese Youth Team's quick counterattack.

After Xu Liang avoided the opponent's spikes and landed on the ground, she yelled at the referee to express her dissatisfaction.

This is already the third time since the opening.

According to Zeng Zheng's tactical guidance, both Xu Liang and Yu Tao took advantage of the gap created by the opponent's full-back and quickly hit the opponent's back to form a counterattack, attacking the opponent's two wings.

Judging from the current results, the results are good, and the South Korean central defender can be forced to make aggressive defense every time.

But the problem is that so far, the referee has not shown a yellow card to the South Korean players.

The referee's inaction also caused the South Korean players to move more and more widely.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seeing this, Tang Pengju behind Zeng Zheng was already angry.

"Fuck, I must collect information after the game and report it to South Korea!"

When screening overage players, the AFC staff played a clever one-on-one match with South Korea: the AFC greeted South Korea in advance in an inadvertent way, and South Korea also muddled through in a way.

Land safely.

Because of this, Park Ji-sung, who was originally born in 1980, directly became a teenager born in 1981 in this cup.

"it does not matter."

"Let's just give way to South Korea."

"Why, if Park Ji-sung is too much for us, we won't be able to win, right?"

Seeing Zeng Zheng's confident expression, the excited Chen Jinjiang and Tang Pengju gradually calmed down.

yes!

We have Coach Zeng here, so what are we afraid of?

Park Ji-sung’s abilities are beyond words.

Zeng Zheng's countermeasures against him were also very simple.

The first one is Xu Liang's attack just now.

If you dare to provide an assist, I will dare to hit you behind you during the counterattack, so that the next time you want to run forward, you must consider whether your teammates can fill your gap.

The second one was very rough.

You can pass one of us, or you can pass two of us, but don't ever dream of passing the third one of us!

So far, Park Ji-sung is still active on the court because he has not yet encountered the "third defender" who has shown his true strength!

Just like when Sun Xiang and Dewey successfully teamed up to defend, Park Ji-sung, who was in possession of the ball at that time, was already at the end of his strength.

Just adjust the position a little, then stretch out your foot and break the ball, and the ball will come down.

If he wanted to force a breakthrough just now, either Dewey or Sun Xiang would make him understand why the flowers are so red!

In the 18th minute, Dewey once again successfully intercepted the ball with the help of his teammates, and then sent a long pass to the accelerating Xu Liang.

Seeing Du Wei's precise long pass guidance, the three assistant coaches nodded in unison.

He is tall, has bounce, header, and good footwork.

The Chinese team hasn’t produced a central defender with such potential for a long time!

"It's just that I'm a little thinner." Tang Pengju curled his lips, looking a little picky.

"It's okay, it's okay. When I get back, I'll eat more beef and do more strength training. It'll be fine in a few years." Chen Jingang took a very open-minded view.

Ordinary families these days are not old enough to eat beef every meal!

This time, facing the fourth rapid counterattack of the China Youth Team, the South Korean offensive players who stayed in the frontcourt did not speed up the pursuit.
