Chapter 2 Four consecutive wins
The first week of the Swiss Super League this season is a week-long double match. After a narrow victory over the Zurich Grasswage at home, Gosau went to the away game to challenge the promoted Ma Thun on July 23.
Last season, Thun won the championship of the Swiss Challenge Group and won the only direct promotion place, while the second place in the challenge group, Nines, lost the promotion place in two rounds of 1:3 in the play-offs with the ninth place Lucerne in last season's Swiss Super League. In this way, Lucerne was lucky enough to stay in the Swiss Super League.
After the Thun team was promoted to the Super League, they got a lot of revenue from broadcasting fees. They recruited a lot of people and ambitiously wanted to make a difference in the Super League. There are five or six players in the national level. Although most of them are the national players of the second-class teams in Europe and South America and the African team, some of them are still very old. Veteran, but he also practically increased their strength.
In the first game, the Thun team also performed well. They were not conservative at all against Zurich, the runner-up of the Swiss Super League last season. They fought against their opponents. Although they lost 3:5 in the end, it was amazing enough to score three goals at the home of Zurich. Their new players also performed well. Senegalese international striker Faye scored two goals, and the other was scored by Serbian striker Nidic.
Mulati, the head coach of the Thun team. Yakin is Hakan, the head coach of Basel. Yakin's brother and brother are coaching in the Swiss Super League at the same time, which is also a good story in Swiss football.
Facing the top two last season at the beginning of the league is not a good schedule for Thun, but Mulati. Yakin said that he was not afraid of the strong. He hoped that the Thun team would play their own style in the face of Gosho and strive to be unbeaten.
When asked what he thought of this game, Lin Fenglei complimented the Thun team. He said that the Thun team has a lofty ambition and bought a lot of powerful players, and the future will certainly be very bright.
However, it turned out that Lin Fenglei's compliment to his opponent did not prevent him from winning the game. After 90 minutes of the game, Gosho easily defeated Thun 3:1. Lima, Codingho and Egman contributed to the team respectively, while Thun's new player Nedic continued to be in good shape and scored the only goal for Thun.
Lin Fenglei still sent some rotating players in this game. Due to the unsystematic pre-season training, he can only adjust the status of the players through rotation.
On July 27, Gosho continued their away trip. Coincidentally, their opponent in this round happened to be Thun's head coach Murati. Yakin's younger brother Hakan. The Basel team led by Yakin.
Although the two teams are coached by brothers, the Basel team coached by the younger brother is far stronger than the Thun team coached by the elder brother.
Lin Fenglei also sent most of the main players in this game. As a result, the Gosho team swept away the teetness of the first two games and played a smooth offensive in this game.
In the 18th minute of the game, Chekareli opened the goal. The central defender of Basel made a mistake after competing for the header. Egman grabbed the second drop, broke the ball, and then took it into the penalty area and shot angrily to open the record for the Gosho team.
In the 29th minute, Basel's header from Italian high school striker Marcesi in the penalty area brought the score to a one-one draw.
Neither team scored in the first half, but at the beginning of the second half, Gosho turned away and launched a fierce attack on Basel's goal.
In the 50th minute, Lima passed the ball forward in the midfield. Egman headed the ball and rubbed it back. Kadingho inserted the ball and formed a single knife. Facing the attacking Basel goalkeeper Bacilevich, he calmly pushed the shot in the near corner and rewritten the score to 2:1.
Only three minutes later, Basel attacked. Kodinho knocked back to Lima after breaking the ball in the midfield. Lima took the opportunity to send a top straight pass. Egman inserted it into a single knife, broke into the penalty area and hit the goal. He was blocked by Bachilevic, but Ivanovic, who followed up, easily pushed the ball into the empty goal, 3 1. Gosho expanded the score.
In the 70th minute, Egman got a long pass from Ivanovic on the left side of the front of the penalty area. He saw two people pressing towards him. The opportunity was not good, so a big foot shifted and passed the ball to Gugleman, who inserted an assist on the right side. Gugelman took two steps and knocked the ball to the right side of the front of the penalty area. Codingho, Codingho turned his back to the opponent's defender to protect the ball and knocked back in the middle. Ivanovic, who followed, pulled out his foot and shot angrily. The ball hit the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball. 4:1, Gosho locked the victory.
Since then, both sides have had a chance to score goals, but they failed to score again. Gosho defeated Basel 4:1 away and also won three consecutive victories since the start of the Swiss Super League.
The scores of these three games are 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1 respectively. There are more goals than one goal. Of course, this is a good thing. It also shows that the state of the Goshao team has been adjusted better and better. However, what makes Lin Fenglei dissatisfied is that the Goshao team has lost goals in these three games, compared with last season in defense. There has been a decline. Of course, this has a lot to do with the unsystematic pre-season training of Gosho, but Lin Fenglei still criticizes the defense line.
It is reasonable that the loss of a goal per game is not too bad. Lin Fenglei is a little blamed, but the back-line players of the Gosho team do not think so. They are also angry, and they also think that they should not lose the ball on the game. This is a sense of honor as a champion player.
Sure enough, in the next game, the defense of the Gosho team responded to Lin Fenglei's criticism with practical actions.
On August 3, Gosho played against the fifth place Nashatel at home last season. In this game, Gosho's defense was very aggressive, completely suppressing the powerful Nishatel team in its own half.
In the 26th minute of the game, Ivanovic made a fierce shovel in the backcourt and broke the pass of the Neuchtel team. Then he immediately stood up and sent a long pass. Avanzini quickly made a bottom pass after getting the ball on the left side. Egman stopped the ball with his chest on the left side of the penalty area and swept through the air. The ball was hit into the upper left corner of the goal, 1-0, and the Gosho team took the lead.
In the first half of stoppage time, Kao Dinghuo scored an unexpected goal. At that time, Ribeiro passed the ball to the midfield, and Ivanovic passed it back. His ball was a little light and was almost snatched by the striker of the Neuchttel team. Fortunately, Antunau responded quickly. He took a big step and took the ball to the front court first. He drove the ball a little strong and flew directly to the penalty area of Neuchateel, Coding. Huo grabbed the header and rubbed it. Originally, he wanted to ferry to Egman on the other side. Unexpectedly, the ball drew a strange arc and flew directly to the back corner of the goal. The goalkeeper of the Nashatel team was caught off guard and could only watch the ball get into the goal.
After the start of the second half of the game, the Gosho team was unreasonable and continued to launch a fierce attack on the goal of Noshatel. In the 62nd minute, Ivanovic scored the ball from the back court to the foot of Gugleman, who inserted an assist on the right side. Gugelman passed directly to Horensten. After Horensten and Kodinho made a wall-colliding cooperation, they broke into the penalty area and volleyed from a small angle to the near corner. The score has become 3-0.
In the 68th minute, Ivanovic made a diagonal long pass and handed the ball to Avanzini. After taking two steps, Avanzini met two people to defend. He turned around and knocked the ball back to Ribeiro, who was following up. Ribeiro kept up and sent a 45-degree oblique pass with his left foot. Kodinho in the middle grabbed the header and rushed to the top. The ball went into the net and got into the upper left corner of the goal, 4-0. Kadingho locked the victory for Gosho.
After a 4-0 lead, Lin Fenglei replaced three starters in a row. The Gosau team also slowed down the offensive pace, and the Nayshatel team was also in love with the game. In the end, the Gosau team won 4-0 at home, and also won four consecutive victories since the start of the league.
At the same time, this is also Gosho's first zero goal loss game of the season, and this is what makes Lin Fenglei the most satisfied.
