Reporter Wang Wei reports On the evening of June 13, the Chinese Super League restarted, and Meizhou Hakka visited Dalian Barracuda Bay Football Stadium to challenge the "promoted horse" InBev, losing 0-1 to the opponent and suffering 5 consecutive defeats. If you add the FA Cup loss to Guangxi Hengchen, a team in the second division, they have lost 6 consecutive games on both fronts, and the relegation situation is becoming more and more severe.
After a break of nearly a month, Meizhou has been fully rested and adjusted, foreign central defender Morris returned, the team can send four foreign players to start at the same time, Hong Kong player Ru Zinan because he represented the Hong Kong team in the Asian Cup preliminaries, failed to enter the team squad, Rao Weihui replaced his full-back position.
This game is the first meeting between the two teams in the Chinese Super League, and Meizhou ranks 11th, InBev ranks 10th, and the difference is only two points.
At the beginning of the game, the two teams immediately fought fiercely around the midfield, and the game also fell into a stalemate. Meizhou is based on defensive counterattacks, while InBev presses through high pressing. However, in the 22nd minute, Dalian InBev made a mistake in the midfield, and Yang Ultrasound ushered in an excellent counterattack opportunity near the center circle, and then the opponent shoveled it to the ground with a tactical foul, and the referee gave a yellow card to Cao Haiqing, who fouled, which caused dissatisfaction among the players on the field in Meizhou.
Throughout the first half, Meizhou's offense was slow to open the situation, and the tacit understanding between the midfielders was not enough, and there was not even a threatening shot.
In the second half, Meizhou's offense accelerated to seize the start, and in less than 1 minute of the opening game, Wang Jianan's angry shot was slightly higher than the goal. In the 52nd minute, Meizhou lost the goal, and Zhu Pengyu of InBev scored a goal.
Meizhou changed three players in a row in the 69th minute to strengthen the attack on the field, and the 17-year-old Wei Xiangxin also put on the field. Wei Xiangxin was active after coming on the pitch, bringing vitality to Meizhou's attack, and in the 79th minute, he broke away from the defense and completed a low shot, but was saved by the opposition goalkeeper. After the game, he admitted that the whole team was out of shape.
Although it worked hard, in the end, Meizhou still lost the game 0-1.
In this game, although Meizhou showed a certain amount of resilience, its offensive performance was really spicy. It is worth noting that Meizhou only had two shots on goal in the whole game, setting a new low for the team's number of shots on goal in a single game.
At present, Meizhou's problem is that the defensive end has improved, but the offensive end is dumb, and coach Milan also took the initiative to mention this problem after the game.
'Our forward line was good at the start of the season, but in the last few games, it's been difficult to open and close, and some of the players in the attacking end, who didn't play well in today's game, were at a lower level, and that's obviously something we need to address in a timely manner. Milan said: "Of course, we will 'forget' about this game and focus on the next big game to make sure we can face Guoan in the best condition. ”
Next, Meizhou will play Guoan and Jinmen Tigers at home in a row, and if they continue to suffer consecutive defeats, relegation will not be optimistic.
