Chapter 34 Swiss "Super Cup"
On July 10, the first round of the Swiss Super League 2011-2012 season started as scheduled. Gosho played at home against last season's league champion Zurich. Because this game was the last league champion against the previous cup champion, and at the beginning of the season, there is no Super Cup. Switzerland was hyped by the media as Switzerland's "Super Cup", so the game was broadcast live by Swiss National Sports One.
Lin Fenglei took out his usual 4132 formation last season, goalkeeper Rett, left-back Kufre, two central defenders are the two strange combinations of Salihovic and Antunović, right-back Gugleman, Cabanas as the defensive midfielder, the two wingers are Avanzini and Horensten, front midfielder Lima, front The striker combination is still Egman and Kadingho.
At the beginning of the game, Gosho launched a fierce attack on Zurich, without any timidity to face the defending champion. As the defending champion, Zurich, of course, was not willing to show weakness. The two teams played a wonderful offensive battle, which also made Ralph busy at the scene: "Gosho's new transfer to Argentina this season. Kufre took the ball as an assist and made a cooperation with Avanzini and then made a bottom pass. Egman headed the ball, but unfortunately it was a little off. The Zurich team kicked off the goal. After the ball was opened, it was obtained by midfielder Gajic. Gajic divided the ball to the left-back Vasquez. Vasquez suddenly cut a long shot and the ball was high; Go Team Shao immediately launched a counterattack. After a series of cooperation in the middle, Lima suddenly made a long-range shot 35 meters away from the goal. The ball hit the outside of the left post and popped out the bottom line, which scared the goalkeeper Leoni of the Zurich team in a cold sweat..."
After the offensive situation between the two sides lasted for more than 20 minutes, the Zurich team was gradually pressed back to their own half, because Zurich's attack also mainly relied on Lewandowski on the forward line and two assists on the sidelines. Lewandowski is a Polish international with strong ability, but he has the ability to play back and stare. Antunović, who was very strong and has a strong running ability, stared at him, and with the care of the tough Kabanas from time to time, he was soon submerged in the crowd; and the two full-backs in Zurich met Kufret and Gugelman, two full-backs with strong defensive ability, especially Kufret, who were extremely strong. The style of the ball is fierce and daunting. After touching the nails a few times, their two full-backs also began to shrink. Especially after Gosho's two best wingers, Avazzini and Horensten, who can be said to be Switzerland, became more and more active, they had to often retreat to help their full-back defenders defend. Come on, Kufret and Gugelman, who lost their ties, also began to assist more forward, causing the situation in Zurich to become more and more passive.
The situation on the field of Gosho began to be obviously dominant, but due to luck, and Zurich's goalkeeper Leoni also played very well and failed to score. The two teams entered the halftime with a score of 0: 0, Ralph took a breath of breath: "The referee blew the whistle of the half, in the first half. Both teams failed to score in the game. The score was 0:0, but the game was still very exciting. The pace of attack and defense between the two teams is very fast, especially the Gosho team. They maintained the style of full attack and defense last season, and played many times in the first half, but they were unlucky and failed to score. Let's take a 15-minute break and watch the second half of the game. I hope the second half will be more exciting.
Lin Fenglei did not adjust the lineup during the halftime, because the players in the first half played well, and it is clear that he can play against the defending champion. If you want to make an adjustment, you have to wait until the other side makes an adjustment.
Zurich's head coach Charles Landes made the first adjustment after the start of the second half. He replaced Lewandowski's front-line partner with a midfielder. The mediocre Guadeloupe striker Afonse in the first half hopes to gain control of the midfield by increasing the number of midfielders, but his adjustment It didn't turn the situation around. The two sides of the Gosho team are too strong. They frequently break through on the two sides. The two full-backs in Zurich are exhausted and embarrassed, making their two full-backs often retreat to help the defense. Gosho's full-backs also take the opportunity to press to the midfield, resulting in Zurich's midfield disadvantage not decrease at all, and the situation on the court is still It was the Zurich team that was passively beaten.
Charles Landes stood on the sidelines and frowned. The current passive situation in Zurich is not that there is something wrong with his tactics, but the result of the two wingers of the Gosho team's ability to be too strong. One-on-one can't be prevented at all, which is why it has caused Gosho's local numerical advantage. Now it doesn't have much to play a role in replacing people. They can only wait for the team to survive this difficult period of time and wait for the Gosau team's winger's physical strength or state to decline before seeking a counterattack. Thinking of this, he waved his hand to the team's back defense to retract the defense.
Avazzini and Holensten's ability is really strong now. Their strength has now reached about 150, and they are extremely fast and explosive. Their ability to plate, cross and internal shots is also very strong. They stand out in the whole Swiss football world. In addition, this is the first game at the beginning of the season. They met the defending champion again, so they were very excited and in excellent condition, and one person suppressed the other sideline.
Time passed quickly in this fast-paced offensive and defensive battle. In the 75th minute, the Goshao team's wild attack finally blossomed and bore fruit, and it was Avanzini who took the ball to the bottom at high speed. The opponent's right-back carefully stuck Avanzini's line, while the opponent's right-back was harassing and preparing to steal Avanzi. At Ni's foot, Avazzini dunked the ball back and forth a few times. Seeing that there was no good chance to pass the ball, he knocked the ball back to the left-back Kufrey who was assisting. Kufre did not stop passing the ball diagonally and handed the ball to Kodinho in the middle of the penalty area. Kaudingho made a fake shot and tricked the opponent into defending his mid-back. The guard blocked his shot sideways, then smashed the ball to his left side, and immediately pushed his left foot to the corner. Leoni, who performed well in the whole game, could not stop the shot this time. He watched the ball rub against the left post and get into the net.
Ralph's iconic roar sounded again: "Goooooooooooooooool! Gosau's unremitting attack was finally rewarded. Kodinho scored Gosau's first goal of the new season, leading the defending champion 1-0, making a good start for the team.
The 3,000 Gosho fans were also cheering. Lin Fenglei stood up and applauded the goal, but he also had some regrets. The stadium was still too small. If there were 30,000 fans at the scene, how warm the atmosphere would be.
After conceded the ball, Charles Landes immediately ran out of two substitutions at a time. He replaced two offensive players and two full-timers who were exhausted by the opponent's side attack. He was going to work hard. Lin Fenglei also replaced one person. He replaced Meyer with Meyer. Egman, who replaced Lima with declining physical strength with Ivanovic, put three players with strong defensive ability in the middle of the midfield to strengthen the defense. His adjustment was very targeted, and he immediately curbed the opponent's attack in the middle. Zurich's attack suddenly became thunderous and raindrops, with little practical effect.
Seeing that the 90-minute time had been gone, Lin Fenglei replaced Kufre with Ribeiro again. This substitution was intended to delay the time, but it immediately received the effect. In the 92nd minute, Antunović suddenly grabbed and cut off the ball from the opponent's player's foot. The first time, he was given to Ribe, who had just played. Luo, the physically strong Ribeiro ran more than 50 meters with the ball, and then knocked the ball to Ivanovic in the middle of the midfield. Ivanovic kicked straight for the first time. Codinho inserted the ball into the penalty area and succeeded in reverse offside. As soon as he entered the penalty area, he shot angrily. Leoni did not respond to this close-range strong shot. The score became 2-0.
In Ralph's roar, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game. In the first round of the focus battle, the Swiss "Super Cup" above the season cup champion Gosho defeated last season's league champion Zurich 2-0.
After this game, Switzerland's domestic media responded strongly. It is not uncommon for the defending champion to lose, but Gosho did not rely on luck to win this game, but on his strength. Gosho won this game quite convincingly. Zurich lost without a temper. The media exclaimed that Gosho has He has become a newcomer in the Swiss Super League. At the post-match press conference, Charlanders was also convinced by the loss to Gosho. He said that Lin Fenglei was a quite good coach. Several of his adjustments in the game were very targeted and completely curbed his tactics. He hoped that he could find a way to deal with him next time he met.
Lin Fenglei said that Charlanders is an excellent coach. The best proof is that he led the team to win the league championship last season, and his own victory in this game can't explain too much. Finally, he wished Zurich a good result in this year's Champions Cup. However, he thought maliciously in his heart that if Charles Landes had invested too much energy in the Champions League, he would not have repeated the tragedy of the Grasshoppers last season.
In this game, five of Gosho's new faces appeared and performed well. Kufre and Ivanovic each had an assist, and Ribeiro had an indirect assist in only two minutes. Kabanas had an excellent defense, tenacious style, contributed four steals, and a desperate goal. The rescue won the warm applause of the fans, and Meyer was also conscientious in the short playing time and completed the defensive task given to him by Lin Fenglei.
In the new season, the team's new face seems to bring the strength of Gosho to another level. The fans are very happy, and Lin Fenglei himself is also very satisfied.
