When people discovered the formation of the Chinese team in this game, the team's playing style naturally came out.

"Faced with the stronger Japanese team, Camacho made the decision to respond with a bus formation, which is a wise approach for the Chinese team who plays away."

He nodded. In fact, many football players before the game also speculated that Camacho might have set up a defensive and counterattacking bus formation after he had two players who were very familiar with defense and counterattacks in Piacenza.

Therefore, after a question, Liu Jianhong realized the benefits of this formation and tactics, and he began to continue to follow up on the progress of the game.

"The Chinese team's ball control is very steady. With Liu Feng and Zheng Zhi in the middle, the players passed it very smoothly. The Japanese team had to push the formation out and began to press."

As the home team in this game, the Japanese team lined up a regular formation of 442.

Takehiro Kiyoshi and Shinji Okazaki are partnering with each other as the team's double striker, Keiyuki Honda and Makoto Hasegawa as the team's center and midfielder, while the left and right front-end front-end are Endo and Kento Nakamura.

In terms of four defenders, Yuuo Nagato from Serie A giant Inter Milan has served as the left back. Atsuto Uchida, who has encountered more than once in the Premier League, served as the right back, and Ashi Yoshida and Taiyuki Imano served as the center back.

As for the goalkeeper, Japanese goalkeeper Kawashima Nagatsuki is the one who is the Japanese goalkeeper.

This is a starting lineup with a home team and a substitute lineup. Even when the Chinese team already has a powerful superstar like Liu Feng, they are not as elite as they are against Australia.

This arrangement is naturally beneficial to the Chinese team. They lost the ball for the first time seven minutes after the game started, and then the ball was quickly taken back after Hao Junmin and Zheng Zhi's crazy counterattack.

Compared with the Chinese team, the Japanese team members were obviously too slow to get into the state. When their coach began to shout loudly on the sidelines to signal the team to cheer up as soon as possible, it was already fifteen minutes after the game began.

"This opening is completely different from the situation when the two teams last played. With the advantage of the number of players in the midfield, the Chinese team has made its own half-time operation an unbreakable barrier."

Although there is no good chance to fight back, Liu Jianhong and many fans who are looking forward to this game are still very pleased, because the situation between the two sides is obviously in a balanced state at this moment.

Yes, when the Chinese team is now playing against the Japanese team, it is already a very good thing to be in balance.

Fifteen minutes later, when the Japanese midfielders realized that they were completely useless in the half-time pressing of their opponents like headless flies, they began to change.

"Didn't continue to press forward, the Japanese team also chose to retreat. They left Hirotsuki Kiyoto and Shinji Okazaki in the Chinese team's halftime, and other midfielders controlled their range of activities near the center circle."

When the Japanese team began to make changes, it became impossible to continue to control the ball in their own half. So, after getting the ball again, Liu Feng began to try to dribble into the middle circle.

His offensive thinking is not wrong. After all, the team is heading for victory rather than winning.

But the mistake is that other players on the team do not have the ability to change their thinking and follow up on him in this way.

In the 21st minute of the game, when Liu Feng dribbled the ball and was double-teamed by two defensive players on the left side of the opponent's midfield and was about to be killed by the third player and wanted to get the ball out, he finally discovered his isolated reality.

"The other players did not keep up well. Liu Feng could not find the player who came out for a while. Wu Lei quickly pulled back and quickly came out. It was very thrilling. The ball was still passed, but the Chinese team had no offensive power in front of him."

This was a failed attempt. Although the ball was not lost after Wu Lei was given to Zheng Zhi in the middle again, it also reflected that the players still had some shortcomings in their tacit understanding.

"Continue to defend! Feng, don't worry for a moment!"

Just as Liu Feng was helplessly trying to say something, Camacho, who was standing in the coaching area, suddenly winked at him, and first issued an order in English and then added something to Liu Feng in Portuguese to say to him.

At this moment, Liu Feng chose to trust the coach. This is his usual habit as a player. After all, the coach saw the overall team than someone on the court.

So, when the game continued, some fans who wanted to watch the Chinese team do a grand game, whether life or death was left to fate or death, at least they were disappointed.

It's not because the Chinese team lost the goal, but because the game was really ugly.

"It was another big foot to relieve the siege. Keiyu Honda stopped wearing a thick air. The expression on his face was very awkward. This was Zheng Zhi's third big foot to relieve his. This destructive style of play made the Japanese team, who was good at ground attack, consume a lot of physical strength in vain."

In the 43rd minute of the game, the Japanese team once again attacked and was cleared by the Chinese team and broke out of the sideline.

The ball is intercepted by the midfield and backcourt, passed to the frontcourt, and then destroyed by the opponent by small action, foul or intercepting the ball, and then intercepted the ball in the midfield and backcourt. This cycle is everything that happened in the past twenty minutes.

When Atsuto Uchida threw the ball out again on the right side of his half, Makoto Hasegawa, who was receiving the ball, was stuck in his body by Liu Feng who was quickly killed.

Feeling the huge force coming from behind, Hasegawa Makoto realized at the first moment that it was almost impossible for him to wipe it with his body cover.

In desperation, he had no choice but to pass it back to Atsuto Uchida who had already entered the field.

"Pull the ball with one kick! Liu Feng~, he did a great job in the defensive end in this first half, which he had never had in Arsenal or Piacenza. The ball rolled over Uchida Atsuto. Fortunately, there was Yoshida Ma who also helped him wipe his butt, otherwise Liu Feng, who had been raising his speed, would have taught him a huge lesson."

I originally wanted to announce passionately that the Chinese team had finally made the first interception counterattack, but the next moment people saw Maya Yoshida who appeared in front of the ball earlier than Liu Feng.

When the ball was kicked out with one foot, the first half had come to an end.

“嘘~嘘!!!”

Shortly after the ball flew from the backcourt of the Japanese team to the midfield, a sharp whistle rang over Yokohama Stadium, 0-0. Such a game and such a scene obviously were not what the fans who filled Yokohama Stadium to the fullest wanted to see.

“…”

Everyone watched the two teams leave the stadium in silence, and didn't know what to say for a while.

However, through the camera, we can see that the Chinese coach Camacho smiled when entering the player channel.
