Beijing Guoan

After the seven-game winning streak, Zhonghe Guoan broke the winning streak record of the Super League (the previous winning streak was six), and Beijing fans have not been so comfortable for several years. In the words of the trend point, it is "winning for a while, winning for a lifetime."

When the league kicked off to play Zall, I wrote an article "It has been raining, and the first show of Guoan is not too bad!" As long as you improve by four points, the new season can be expected. In the article, I pointed out the advantages of Guoan in passing control, midfield, defense and substitution. With the deepening of the season, Guoan's problems have improved obviously, especially the changes in the defensive end, which is the main tone of Guoan's 7-game winning streak.

The tradition of Guoan is to play small and fast, or to pass and control football. What is the basis of such a football? This is the right of the ball.

Last year, Guoan also passed the ball, but it was not pleasant to say. Last year's passing control was continuous cross or return, resulting in a high possession rate. Such transmission and control, one can't open the situation, and it exists in name only; Second, it is easy to throw the ball to the defense and bury mines. This is why last year's Guoan always looked at the picturesque tofu dregs in the frontcourt and backcourt. The defense line is not very bright, and the frontcourt is still full of ups and downs. It is strange that people don't always score goals.

This year, there was actually no major adjustment in the defense line, with Min Kim, Wang Gang and Zou Dehai. In fact, it didn't change much, just lost two goals. This is mainly because Guoan's transmission and control found the soul, not transmission and control, but transmission and control or running or robbing.

In this year's competition, many times we can see the frontcourt players madly counterattack after losing the ball, sometimes even 3 1, 4 1. If you don't remember the distance, I'll tell you a closer game. In the second half of the game against Dalian, Guoan lost the ball in the middle and frontcourt and directly launched a counter-grab on the spot. The players involved are Li Lei, Li Ke, Chi Zhongguo and Zhang Xizhe. They have the right to grab the ball and block the passing route.

This kind of snatch completely drives the opponent crazy. It was already 4- 1. In order to control the ball, the opponent will only get more and more frustrated.

In fact, this is the correct way to kick off. Look at Barcelona at its peak and Manchester City now, which one is not played like this. If you want to control the ball, you must win it. Passing the ball is just one way to control the ball, and fighting back for the ball is another way. In short, always make sure the ball is under your feet.

Look at some data of Guoan's new season transmission control. Average passing 524. 1 time, ranking first in the Super League; The average possession rate is 59.3%, ranking first in the Super League. The passing success rate is 82.3%, which is the second in the Super League (second only to R&F 83.6%); 2 1.7 steals per game, ranking first in the Super League; The average interception per game is 14. 1 time, which is the second in the Super League (second only to Shandong 14.3 times).

What is more touching about Guoan this season is the depth of the lineup. Beijing fans should not feel this way for so many years. There are too many people the whole team can fight. This also makes Guoan in the case of third-line operations, there is still not much physical trouble, as long as the players on the field can maximize their value.

Guoan's lineup with the most appearances this season is 4222: goalkeeper-Zou Dehai, left back-Li Lei, center back-Yu Dabao, (Min Kim is here), right back-Wang Gang (), midfielder-Chi Zhongguo (Li Ke), Zhang Xizhe, Augusto, Vieira, striker-Zhang Yuning and (Wang). In addition, Park Sung, Zhang Jun, Hou Yongyong, and other players also appeared in succession.

Several new recruits have very distinctive characteristics, which have been recognized by the head coach and fans. Here I mainly talk about three players, because they not only play well, but also are the key factors to enrich the national security tactical system.

The first one is Wang Gang. To be honest, 80% of fans should have never heard of this name. But in fact, Wang Gang became famous when he was young and played as a striker in the Portuguese League when he was young. His arrival directly saved the whole right corridor of Guoan.

Wang Gang is 3 1 year old this year. It's hard to imagine that there is such a strong instantaneous explosive force at this age. This season, the drama of passing the ball and forcibly overtaking has been repeatedly staged in the competition, and it has become the national security version of Bell (dare not say that it is China's). You know, as a full-back, he averaged 1.3 breakthroughs and 2.3 crosses this season (the highest in his career).

It is precisely because of Wang Gang's super running ability that Schmidt began to make full use of the width of the venue. On the basis of the original tactical system, open the flank space, and then play a sudden middle division through the control and containment of several midfielders. This tactic is also reflected in the match against one side, only this time it is Jiang Tao instead of Wang Gang, but the process and effect are the same.

Followed by Li ke. In these rounds, Li Ke basically held the starting line, and he showed excellent aggressiveness and enthusiasm in the competition. At present, Li Ke has contributed 30 steals, ranking second in the queue (Chi Zhongguo first) and seventh in the Super League. Li Ke's grab is very steady and skillful, and he can get the upper hand in the contest almost every time and get the ball back.

There is an old saying on the football field: "If the waist is hard, the team will be hard." Li Ke+Chi Zhongguo make the national security waist in the new season not only hard, but also more selective. Both of them can be done independently, and both have the characteristics of high-intensity running, large coverage and strong prediction ability; Playing double waist, their combination is the top level in the whole Super League, and reinforced concrete is generally difficult to be penetrated.

What's even more gratifying is that Li Ke also has the ability to plug directly on the offensive end, which also raises the dream level of Guoan midfielder to a new height. Schmidt has another happy worry.

Finally, Zhang Yuning. I always think that Zhang Yuning is the best striker in China in recent years (except King Wu). He is only 22 years old, but he has physical fitness and competition experience beyond his peers. Although he didn't get many performance opportunities during his experience in Europe, his football level is still above the domestic average.

After Zhang Yuning came to Guoan, he greatly enriched the tactical system of Guoan. Compared with Bakambu, Zhang Yuning plays a more significant role in the center of the frontcourt. He can control the high-altitude ball and then turn his back on his teammates in midfield. Such a bridgehead has never been seen since Deyang, the "Ibrahimovic of Montenegro". By the way, remember what I said above about passing and controlling the ball. We want the ball right, and Zhang Yuning's fulcrum ability is also the guarantee to control the ball right.

Zhang Yuning is not only a single bridgehead, but also has excellent shooting skills. He entered his range near the restricted area line. In the new season, Zhang Yuning has scored three goals, each of which is wonderful. Back to the defender, and then complete the turn and volley like a basketball jump shot. This action became his signature action.

A few years ago, Guoan was mostly a "home dragon, away worm". At the devil's home court, Guoan soldiers can always defend strongly in their own way, but when they are away, they play hard most of the time. However, this situation has changed greatly this year. Let me show you some data. At present, Guoan has played 7 games, with 3 people and 4 guests.

3 home games:

Average shots 17.7 times, 9 goals and 2 goals conceded, 493.3 passes, 82.8% passing success rate, 57.7% possession, 20.7 steals, clearance 17.3 times and interception 12.3 times.

4 away games:

Average shots 15.3 times, 7 goals and 0 goals conceded, 547.3 passes, 8 passes1.9%, 60.5% possession, 22.5 steals, clearance 15 times and interception15 times.

Guoan played more aggressively away from home, and both steals and interceptions were significantly improved. In this way, Guoan got more possession of the ball, which is why the average possession rate has also improved. Players try to keep the ball under their feet, then tear the defense with conduction, and finally become a score.

It can be seen that Guoan's seven-game winning streak is not accidental, but "7". In the next round, Guoan will face Evergrande, the strongest opponent since the start of the league, which is also the best game to test the quality.
