Chapter 67: Break the door with a barb?

Finally, the Toulon Cup finals have arrived. The two teams are relatively familiar with each other. After all, this is the second time the two teams have played in the Toulon Cup, which is not easy, because only China and France have such an opportunity to play twice.

"We must defend this game. All the players are withdrawn from the penalty area, and there is a Mark in front. Do you know?" Yin Tiesheng, the head coach of the China Youth Team in the locker room, was making the final arrangements for the players. He was preparing to carry out the ugly football to the end, so he was going to put Mark in front directly, and then the remaining nine players were all involved in the defense. Then if the China Youth Team wanted to seize one opportunity, the team could win.

Yin Tiesheng now adopts a more conservative tactic than when he was in the group stage against France. Almost all the players now have certain defensive abilities. Even the forward Mark is a midfielder who moves forward. According to the starting lineup of the China Youth Team, this game should be a defensive battle.

"Wow, look at the lineup of the Chinese Youth Team today. It's so creative. Mark actually appeared at the forward position. Does head coach Yin Tiesheng want to take a defensive posture from the beginning? Although Mark was the Dutch Eredivisie silver boot last season, his defensive ability seems to be a little stronger than his offensive ability." The commentator was surprised to get the starting list of the Chinese Youth Team. He didn't expect Yin Tiesheng to do such a move.

In fact, it is not surprising that the commentator was surprised. Yin Tiesheng was originally a conservative coach, and it was understandable that he had such a formation when facing the soon-to-be-winning victory in the final. After all, he would rather choose to stick to the conservative to the end when facing the championship.

After the opening, the Chinese Youth Team used its physical advantages to fight against the French team, but in terms of the personal technical advantages of the French team players, the Chinese Youth Team players could only frequently clear and destroy the ball with big feet. Especially after the midfield lacked strong interception points like Mark, the current Chinese Youth Team's midfield offense has become unorganized.

Mark now doesn't get football in the frontcourt at all, so he can only frequently retreat to his half to catch the ball. The current Chinese Youth Team has become a forward-free formation.

"That's it, yes, let's use your technical advantages." The head coach of the French Youth Team Domeneke thought with satisfaction after watching his players attack the defensive lineup of the Chinese Youth Team.

After the group stage, he had already studied the response measures for the conservative style of the Chinese Youth Team. Domeneck now allows his players to increase their running and involvement, and then after getting the ball, he uses long shots and breakthroughs to threaten the Chinese Youth Team's goal.

Now, Domeneque's tactics are still very effective, and the technical characteristics of the French youth team players have been fully utilized. The current French youth team players are also some geniuses of hope, so their skills are still very outstanding, but the players on the Chinese Youth Team have not been at a disadvantage in the physical confrontation with the French youth team players.

"Defense, destroy" Yin Tiesheng kept repeating these two sentences on the sidelines. This is Yin Tiesheng's dominant policy in this game. He now hopes to win this game with an almost embarrassing style. Regardless of whether the players' skills can play, Yin Tiesheng values ​​the results more than the skills of cultivating players. This is also the current situation in Chinese football. He can give up everything for the sake of the results, and even if he gives up everything, he may not be able to achieve good results.

"Mao Jianqing, you can reach the forward line." Yin Tiesheng now also looked at it's not a good way to push Mark to the forward line. Now there is no way to make a change in tactics, push the right forward Mao Jianqing to the forward line, and let Mark return to the right forward position of the midfielder.

Now Yin Tiesheng has made tactical adjustments, because the attack of the Hungry French Youth Team is too fierce now. Yin Tiesheng originally wanted to use Mark's steal in the frontcourt to win the opportunity to attack, but the current China Youth Team cannot withstand the attack of the French Youth Team at all, so all the footballs of the French Youth Team are passed in the midfield, and Mark has no chance to make more opportunities to intercept the ball.

Mark has returned to the midfield now. His current task is to focus on the attacks of the two core midfielders of the French youth team. Of course, the most important thing is their offensive midfielder Flamini's attack, and at the same time, they should also pay attention to their captain, left-back, Krish's insertion attack.

Mark's task can be said to be very heavy now, but there is no way, because Mark is the strongest and most famous player of this Chinese Youth Team. If he doesn't play a role in leading the way, he will really be sorry for Mark's reputation now.

Now Mark is basically ready to intercept and defend against the opponent's players. Now Mark is the right forward, and his first opponent is the left-back of the French Youth Team captain Krish. Krish has been playing for the French Youth Team for many years and has established his leadership on the court. The rest of the players are obeying Krish's command. It can be said that if you can defeat him now, you can hit the morale of the French Youth Team.

The morale of the players of the youth team is very important. Since the current players' technical movements and mental state are not completely fixed, they are all suitable for playing with a tailwind. Once they are in a state, they are simply incomparable. However, if they are not in a state, they will be completely different.

Now Krish dribbled the ball quickly and pushed it to the midfield. After seeing it, he immediately came up to defend him. Krish did not have any more contact with Mark during the group stage. That was because Mark was the midfielder at that time, and Mark had to concentrate on defending and attacking in the middle, so he had no time to take care of Krish's attack on the wing.

But now it’s different. Mark’s current position has already reached the sideline position in advance, so Mark and Krish had a direct collision.

After seeing Mark, Krish directly used his speed to take Mark's defense. He believed that he had the advantage now. Because the offensive players dribbled the ball head-on, they could do it directly, while the defensive players were behind their backs. So after Krish dribbled the ball, Mark must turn around and chase the ball. Generally, players with similar speeds will win when they are together, because the defensive players who are chasing the ball behind their backs will lose the first move.

But Mark's current speed is due to Krish, and Mark's current physical strength is not worse than Krish, and Mark is even slightly stronger than Krish.

Mark now saw Krish flowing the football forward and wanted to break through himself with speed. Then he turned around and kicked a tackle. Mark directly removed the football from the bottom line.

This time the offense can be said to be Mark's height playing a role, and Mark's excellent explosiveness. Now Mark shouted to his teammates around him after destroying the football.

"Defense, pay attention to your position, and he will leave it to me." Mark's eyes were full of confidence when he shouted, as if Mark had not taken Krish in his eyes at all. In fact, this is not that Mark did not take Krish in his eyes. On the contrary, Mark attaches great importance to Krish. The reason why Mark said this is that Mark wants to despise his opponent tactically and pay attention to his opponent strategically. Mark said disdainful words to make Krish angry.

As long as Krish's mentality is abnormal, his technical movements will definitely be deformed, and he will not be able to exert 100% of his strength at that time.

Sure enough, Krish was hit by Mark's words now, because Mark deliberately spoke Dutch. Because his relatives had Dutch, he could also hear Dutch clearly, but things did not develop as Mark expected. Krish was indeed angry with Mark, but he did not immediately make an attack, causing his own technical action mistakes. Krish is now very energetic. Mark has to admire Krish's current competitive state. If a player like this can maintain such momentum, it would not be a problem to become a top star.

But can Krish keep such a momentum? It is obvious that he cannot. Mark's strength may not be anything in front of those superstars, but when facing players of the same age as him, Mark is not afraid of anyone. Mark can arrogantly say that he can defend all the players in this Toulon Cup, of course, it is one-on-one defense. Even if he cannot successfully defend their offense, Mark can at least completely limit their offensive rhythm and completely lose them outside the team's tactical system.

The current tactical system of the French youth team is very loose, which has a lot to do with the personality of the people in their country. France is originally a very lazy country. They have the most legal holidays in the world. Some people have counted that France seems to be on holidays for half of the year, which is simply unimaginable for a Chinese.

But it is normal in France, but even this is how the French are not satisfied. They ask for more holidays. It is just that people who have grown up in such a country can imagine how tactical discipline is.

After the French youth team drove the sideline ball out, the big foot moved to the other side. Domeneck now saw that Kokrish's left off attack had basically become paralyzed. He quickly shouted at his players on the sidelines, asking the players to change their tactics and start attacking in the middle and right.

This plan is indeed correct. The current French players rely too much on their own personal skills to do it alone, and they have not been able to break the defensive formation of the China Youth Team.

It is obvious that the French youth team's left off attack is their weapon. If they limit the left off attack, their offensive power will be greatly reduced. Domeneck is also very troubled now.

The head coach of the French youth team, Domeneck, is not a head coach who is good at commanding and controlling the game on the spot, and his tactical offense is relatively conservative. The reason why the French team can achieve such a good result should have a lot to do with the outstanding French players' strength and the strength of the opponent. Of course, it cannot be said that Domeneck is useless, otherwise it is not right, but his level is still limited after all, and he can only be the head coach of the youth team with relatively loose tactics and then discover some new players.

Domeneck is now the candidate for France's next national team, so he also hopes to use the Toulon Cup championship to pave the way for the French national team to take office. Now that it is the last moment, he can't help but feel a little nervous.

Domeneke had no idea about the Chinese team before the game, but since Mark joined this team, the current Chinese youth team has changed a lot. Players like Mark can change the appearance of this team, just like Zidane in France back then.

Zidane did not play any role in the World Cup in 1998. At that time, the player who performed best was the French central defender Deselli. Zidane had a bad mentality and a malicious foul on the player caused a red card. If it weren't for his last two gold-like goals, the French team might have won the championship without Zidane, but everything was not if.

Zidane has indeed established his position as the best midfielder in the world since the World Cup in 1998. Although many young players have emerged now, no one can replace Zidane's first midfielder in the world.

Mark is a bit like Zidane of the past, but Mark's skills are not as gorgeous as Zidane. Moreover, Mark has made people remember that a team without his own is a team with no combat effectiveness. Mark now appears on the court to reassure the players around him. This is a kind of temperament, a kind of trust, and it is something that Mark uses practical actions to let the players see.

In a counterattack opportunity, Mao Jianqing used his speed to dribble the ball and then forced a shot under the interference of two opponent's central defenders. However, this shot directly hit the leg of the French youth team's central defender and bounced out of the baseline. The Chinese youth team got a free kick opportunity.

The players of the China Youth Team all attacked, and the two tall central defenders had already been pushed up, so Mark naturally had to go up. Now Mark was focused on the French Youth Team players, because the current French Youth Team players were not given in vain until Mark's header power was given. If Mark could get a chance, he would definitely rewrite the score of the game.

So the two players of the French youth team are interfering with Mark. They are like sandwiches that are almost stuck to Mark. The players in front are their centre-back, 1.9 meters tall, and the other is their midfielder Ma Wuba.

Domeneck is also a great care for Mark. This is definitely a world-class defensive combination. Mawuba's excellent skills are called New Mark Lele, and Schalhan is also called New Blanco. Moreover, Schalhan is five centimeters taller than Mark, so when he was fighting for the header, Mark did not have any advantage at all when he was interfering with these two players.

The offensive players of the China Youth Team are now behind. Chen Tao, who has the best footwork in the Chinese Youth Team, will be punished by Chen Tao, who is the best in the corner. Chen Tao now passes the football directly to the front point.

Mark now saw an opportunity to pull back and forth and run away, and then ran towards the front point to prepare for this corner kick. Although Schalhan defended Mark at the front point, he was 1.9 meters tall, so his speed was not very fast, so he was shaken away by Mark after all. Due to his own figure, Mawuba could only stand in his position and use his injured movements to defend Mark.

Now Mark has come to football players and jumped up to head the ball before, but Mawuba also jumped up and pushed Marc's waist the moment Mark jumped up. This is a very bad move. You should know that the waist should be one of the weakest links in a person's body. If a player's waist is injured, he will not be able to do all his movements.

Mark felt that Mawuba was pushing to his waist now, but Mark had just jumped up and there was no better way. It was difficult for Mark to dodge in the air.

Now Mark thinks of this and then tilts his body back for a circle and then prepares to shoot with an inverted golden hook. Mark's action also reduces Ma Wuba's contact with him.

The football flew over Mark soon now. Mark saw the opportunity to barb the goal. The football hit the goalkeeper's arm and bounced into the goal. It was now the 33rd minute of the first half.

"gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! Mark's barb shot, a wonderful goal." The commentator shouted: "This goal reminds me of Van Basten back then, which is simply Basten's classic goal move."
