556 Defending Asian Cup
Super Yang Yang, at the critical moment, he will give the ball again!
Losing two consecutive Asian Cups to one person, the Japanese coach admits that the Chinese superstar can't stop it!
Two passes and one shot, Chinese superstar shines in the Asian Cup!
Japan equalized twice to highlight the fighting spirit, but the national football team has an invincible divine weapon!
……
On the second day of the game, the national media, from the state's authoritative party periodicals and television stations, to regional television stations and county and city newspapers, all reported that the Chinese team narrowly defeated Japan 3-2 and once again entered the key battle of the Asian Cup final.
Yang Yang's outstanding performance in this game once again sparked the appreciation and heated discussions of domestic fans.
This is Yang Yang's second Asian Cup.
Three years ago, Yang Yang was only 17 years old, but he had already shown that he was better than other players in Asia and was elected the best player in the Asian Cup.
Before the final was played, Yang Yang had only played four games for the Chinese team, but he had already scored seven goals and provided three assists.
It can be said that he is the number one contributor to the Chinese team's ability to enter the finals.
The authoritative party newspaper publicly stated that Yang Yang stepped forward at a critical moment and led the Chinese team to break through the siege of Japan and reach the final again, and at the same time, the Chinese team once again became the number one favorite to win the Asian Cup.
Because in the other game, Iraq surprisingly drew 0-0 with Saudi Arabia and defeated their opponents in a penalty shoot-out, causing a big upset and going all the way to the final.
China encountered Iraq, and everyone believed that the Chinese team was a veritable favorite.
"Due to the fact that he has just experienced a brilliant and dazzling season, Yang Yang is still in the adjustment period of form and physical fitness, but it is obvious that Yang Yang, who is not in his best condition at all, still has the top strength to be proud of other players in Asia."
"Neither Iran, nor South Korea, nor Japan have been able to find an effective way to contain Yang Yang."
"The head coach of the Japanese team, Osim, threatened before the game that the Japanese team had found a way to freeze Yang Yang, but it turned out that Yang Yang couldn't stop it at all, and Osim had to admit after the game that Yang Yang couldn't stop it."
"Osim said that Yang Yang is too comprehensive, he has almost no obvious weaknesses, he can cross from the bottom, he can cut inside the goal, he can assist, he can make a wonderful pass, he can shoot from a distance, he can ...... He can do almost anything! ”
Osim also said that on the football field, no one can stop a player who can do anything.
"Yang Yang's ability is a well-deserved leader even in the Premier League and the Champions League, and on the stage of the Asian Cup, although he is not in the best condition, he is still at ease."
"With seven goals and three assists, Yang Yang has led the Chinese team to play an amazing attack in four games, and has become a fierce opponent for the rest of Asia."
"Everyone, even our opponents, have to admit that the Chinese team with Yang Yang is definitely one of the strongest teams in Asia, and at the same time the most competitive team."
……
The high praise from the authoritative party newspaper has once again improved Yang Yang's status and influence in the national team and China.
If it is said that in the Asian Cup three years ago, Yang Yang, who was only 17 years old, was just starting out, and many people were not convinced of him, then now, three years later, with the top scorer in the history of the Eredivisie, the top scorer in the Premier League, the Champions League Golden Boot Award, the best player in the Premier League and many other glittering honors, Yang Yang has become the most important trump card of the Chinese team.
On the second day of the game, in addition to praising the outstanding performance of the Chinese team and Yang Yang, the national television station also broadcast Yang Yang's words in an interview with a TV reporter after the game in the news during the important period.
"It's certainly a surprise to reach the finals of the Asian Cup for two consecutive years, but the final hasn't been played yet, and Iraq can reach the final, and it will definitely be a difficult opponent, so we shouldn't think too much about it, and we can't be careless."
"There is no doubt that after reaching the finals for two consecutive years, many people will think that we are already a strong team in Asia, or even have the top strength in Asia, but I think that we are not good yet, and the team still has a lot of room for improvement."
"In this Asian Cup, we are young, we have a group of young teammates in the team, and whether we are facing Iran, South Korea or Japan, we have exposed some aspects that are not as good as our opponents.
"For example, in the game against Japan that just ended, we were obviously slightly inferior to our opponents in terms of technical and tactical ability, and in the end we relied on the team's overall performance and tenacious defense to hold on to this victory."
"Of course, we don't need to be arrogant, to be able to reach the final, our goal must be to hit the championship, but we can't be arrogant, we should see the gap clearly, and we should also see the trend clearly."
"I still think that we still have a long way to go, whether it is the league or the academy, we are still far behind Japan and South Korea in the whole football industry, and compared to these, the championship and the glory are not the most important."
No one remembers that this is the first time Yang Yang has made such an appeal.
The call for football reform has always been heard, but many things in domestic football are intricate, intertwined, and unclear, and every time Yang Yang made an appeal, it caused a heated discussion in China, but it disappeared after a long time.
In this regard, Yang Yang was also mentally prepared, he didn't want to go to this troubled water at all, so he then proposed that he hoped that more outstanding young players could bravely go abroad and land in the European League.
He believes that with the tempering and training of the European League, the strength of Chinese players will be further improved, and the overall competitiveness of the Chinese national team will be able to reach a higher level.
……
Yang Yang has never been a person who likes to speak in front of the media, but in his current status, if he doesn't say some things, no one will really say them, and maybe he will be forgotten at some point.
For example, players stay abroad, this road is very hard, and finally the General Administration of Sports and the Football Association have come forward, and finally the club is willing to cooperate, so more and more players have begun to go abroad one after another.
If Yang Yang feels satisfied because of this, then he may not know when, this road will be broken again.
If he doesn't say these words, who will say them?
He doesn't say it, but when others say it, can others hear it?
Of course, if you can hear it, you may not be able to listen to it, Yang Yang just does his best and has a clear conscience.
…………
…………
On July 28, the Asian Cup ushered in the third-place final, Japan drew 0-0 with Saudi Arabia, but lost to West Asian teams in a penalty shootout, and finally finished fourth.
A day later, on the twenty-ninth day.
Against Iraq, Alihan fielded his strongest attacking line-up.
The front line is still a combination of Yang Yang, Gao Lin and Chen Tao, the midfield is Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi and Zhou Haibin, the back line is Sun Xiang, Feng Xiaoting, Li Weifeng and Sun Jihai, and the goalkeeper is Li Leilei.
The summer temperature in Southeast Asia is very high, wet and hot, but the Chinese team still launched a fierce attack on the Iraqi goal from the first minute of the game, and the offensive trident led by Yang Yang frequently created threats inside and outside the Iraqi penalty area.
Iraq is obviously also very aware that it is absolutely self-defeating to fight against the Chinese team, so they have adopted the tactics of defending and counterattacking, and Iraq has behaved very calmly in the face of the menacing Chinese team.
This is also the characteristic of the dark horse team.
Through a series of upsets, the Iraqi players have become more confident than ever, and they stubbornly defended their own penalty area, easily not giving the Chinese team any chance.
Throughout the first half, the Chinese team took turns to impact Iraq's penalty area and goal, creating shooting opportunities again and again, but more of them were long-range shots, and there were not many shots that were really threatening in the penalty area.
The most threatening thing was that Yang Yang burst into the penalty area with the ball in the 23rd minute, causing the Iraqi backline to lose control, but in the end, he passed to Gao Lin, who missed a great opportunity to score.
In terms of the efficiency of grasping the strike in front of the goal, Gao Lin is still lacking.
After the rematch in the second half, the Chinese team continued to maintain a strong pressure posture.
Everyone knows very well that against a heavily defended Iraq, a single goal can completely change the situation.
As long as it can take the lead, then Iraq will have to take the initiative, and this is the opportunity for the Chinese team.
But in the face of Iraq, which is shrinking in defense, the Chinese team is struggling to find opportunities to score.
……
The time was ticking by, and an hour passed quickly.
The Chinese team took advantage of the field but never found a chance to score.
The mentality of the players became a little impatient, and Iraq even started to play counter-attacks.
But just when the momentum was not good, at the critical moment, Yang Yang stepped forward again.
In the 63rd minute, after Shao Jiayi pulled to the left side to get the ball, he passed diagonally to the feet of Yang Yang in the left corner of the penalty area.
Yang Yang faced two Iraqi players at the same time, but while he stopped the ball, he suddenly started by the way, using his excellent explosiveness and flexible ball control to kill a bloody way between the two defenders.
After stopping and stopping, Yang Yang took the ball diagonally into the penalty area, and suddenly volleyed vigorously with his right foot, directly blasting the ball into the Iraqi goal.
Everyone in the stadium stood up and applauded!
Yang Yang excitedly rushed out of the stadium again, celebrating the goal non-stop along the way.
He knew very well that this goal would completely crush Iraq.
……
Trailing by one goal, Iraq intended to fight back, but the Chinese team began to defend and counterattack, and the situation reversed abruptly.
Until the end, Iraq failed to threaten the Chinese goal, and although they once played a series of attacks in the final moments, only one of the eight shots on goal was on target.
As for the Chinese team, they had 23 shots on goal and seven on target.
And Yang Yang's goal helped the Chinese team successfully defend the Asian Cup championship!
