Chapter 1170 (1/2)
Abu Dhabi, Mohammed bin said stadium.
The second round of the group stage of the Asian Cup China team met the Philippines at this stadium.
Although the Philippines has no stars, they have big name coaches!
Eriksson, the Swedish coach who used to be in charge of the three lions of England!
The poor defeat of South Korea in the first round also made the qualifying situation of the Philippines very difficult.
In view of China's three goal victory over Kyrgyzstan in the first round, I'm afraid the Philippines must beat China if it wants to qualify. A draw is of little significance.
When he came to the competition, situ Yunbing would not communicate with the other side's coach before the competition to avoid interfering with the other side.
It's both respect for your opponent and less distractions.
When the first players of the two teams walked into the stadium, the cheers of the Chinese fans who came to the scene were even more deafening.
In Asia, due to the number base of Chinese fans, there are still a considerable number of fans who will come to the scene to cheer on when playing away games.
In such an atmosphere, the Chinese team basically has no disadvantage unless it meets the host.
Especially in the Asian Cup, we are all Asian teams. Maybe because the Asian Cup is held in the UAE, the teams in West Asia will have certain advantages in adaptability to the environment and climate, and there is no difference between the teams in other Asian regions.
Philippine coach Eriksson looked solemn. He probably didn't expect that after more than ten years, he could still fight against legend on the coaching stage!
He once led England to the world cup, and once briefly coached the Premier League team and played with famous coaches such as Ferguson. Ten years later, when he coached in Asia, it seemed that he was consuming the reputation accumulated in the past, not to mention having no ambition. He had reached the age of old-age pension, and there was nothing wrong with making some pension.
Situ Yunbing really didn't know Eriksson. When he made a sudden rise in European football, Eriksson faded out of the top stage in Europe. Naturally, there was no intersection.
For this game, situ Yunbing is sure, especially the situation is changing.
The Philippines must win, and the morale of the Chinese team is like a rainbow.
It is not just the strength gap between the two teams that affects the result of the game.
The starters of the two teams have entered the field and lined up for the ceremony before the kick-off.
”CCTV, CCTV, audience friends, good evening. Welcome to the second round of the 2019 UAE Asian Cup group match. Today, we live broadcast the game between China and the Philippines at the Mohammed bin said stadium in Abu Dhabi.
In the first round of the group stage, China beat Kyrgyzstan 3-0, while the Philippines lost 0-1 to South Korea.
At present, the Chinese team ranks first in the group with the advantage of goal difference.
If we win today's game and the South Korean team does not lose to Kyrgyzstan, then the Chinese team will advance to the knockout round!
The Chinese team still has an obvious advantage over the Philippines in strength.
Let's look at the starting lineup of the two teams.
The Chinese team today follows the starting line of the last game.
Goalkeeper: Shen Jingjie.
Guards: Zhang Linpeng, Bai yuanfan, Cheng Renjun, Li Xuepeng.
Midfield: Zhang Zhibang, Zhao Fenghua, Huang Bozhou.
Forwards: Luo Xin, Wu Lei, Luo Cheng.
The Philippines started 532 today
Goalkeeper: falxgao.
Defenders: Paria, woodland, de muerga, Silva, Daisuke Sato.
Midfield: schrok, Ingersoll, Strauss.
Forwards: Patino, Reichert.
The Philippines is known as the international column. If all the players who were not born in the Philippines are counted as naturalized players, 20 of the 23 people on the list of the Philippines for the Asian cup can be counted as naturalized players!
The current Philippine team has players of German descent, players of Spanish descent, players of Japanese descent and players of Austrian descent
What is the combat effectiveness of such a Philippine team? It can't be underestimated from the fact that they only lost one goal in 90 minutes of hard fighting in South Korea, but I believe that the Chinese team is stronger and more cohesive than the Philippines!
The game will begin immediately. Let's continue to cheer for the Chinese team and hope that the Chinese team can win the game! ”
The players of both sides were arrayed in their respective halves for the kick-off.
If you look closely, it is easy to create an illusion that this is not the Asian Cup!
Because the international column of the Philippines looks like a miscellaneous army, not like an Asian team or a European team, but more like an unknown club.
Situ Yunbing really has some expectations for Eriksson. He wants to see if he will take out all his life skills to play the Chinese team in a desperate situation!
Although the Philippines started 532, situ Yunbing believes that they certainly do not intend to use defensive counterattack against the Chinese team.
