Three consecutive guests, Yukun doesn't want to be linked

Reporter Zuo Rui reports With the highlight performance of former international Deng Hanwen on the field and the off-field strategy of new coach Deng Zhuoxiang, Wuhan Three Towns defeated Yunnan Yukun 3-1 to get the first win of the season. This result not only allowed the home team to temporarily escape the relegation zone, but also allowed the visitors to concede double digits - conceding 12 goals in 6 rounds, an average of 2 goals per game, this indicator is tied for the third most in the Chinese Super League, and the problem of Yukun's weak midfield is beginning to come to the fore.

After Yuxi narrowly defeated Qingdao Manatee by one goal at home, Yukun goal-scorer Xu Hongjie and head coach Anderson both said that the three consecutive away games with Wuhan as the first were important and difficult, "We must make persistent efforts and go all out." After leading the team to Wuhan, Anderson said that the change of manager was not very important to them, and he only focused on the way the team played and prepared. In fact, Yunnan Yukun, who won 2-2-1 in the first five rounds, has been in the open and has no secrets that are difficult to penetrate, while Deng Zhuoxiang, the acting head coach of the three towns who commanded the game for the first time, has been in the dark, and naturally there are no examples for reference.

The lineup of Yukun in this game is basically a revised version of the first two rounds, with only two changes, one is the left-back position, and the injured Xu Hongjie was replaced by Yang He; The second is the central defender, Yi Teng, who has expired his red card suspension, replaced foreign aid Martinez. The substitution was not unexpected, but to everyone's surprise, it was the goal conceded in just 38 seconds - Hou Yongyong and Yang He's help defense on the left side was broken by the home team's Deng Hanwen and crossed, Yukun's captain Yi Teng couldn't keep it off guard, allowing Tudolie to score with a header. After the game, Yi Teng and Anderson spoke in unison: the lightning goal "disrupted the tactical arrangement before the game".

After 21 minutes, the conceded goal was replayed, but Deng Hanwen's cross was more calm than the last time, and Wang Jinxian's header scored more easily than the first goal. In the 36th minute, Deng Hanwen, who had completed two assists, appeared in the Yukun penalty area and used a goal to lock up three points and his personal best for the team in advance. After trailing three goals into the second half, Yukun made several substitutions and counterattacks, but it didn't mean much in terms of results. Enrique's late penalty-kick to salvage a point was just an unrelated episode that happened when he was reunited with his old club.

The belated penalty was not even much consolation for fans of the attacking fulcrum Enrique and Yunnan Yukun, and the Brazilian has yet to score in a sports battle. Before that, another striker, Oscar, had a chance to go on a solo stab, but unfortunately the shot was wide of the goal, otherwise the game might still have a bit of suspense. Anderson said after the game that Oscar had done his best on the pitch and that the problem was that "the other players didn't give him enough passing support".

'We gave the opposition three easy goals, all with a defence out of position. Boss Yukun, who blamed the defeat in the midfield, said: "Today is not a lucky day for us, we need to forget about this game as soon as possible and start preparing for the next away game immediately. ”

Even more unfortunate than missing a chance in front of goal, Anderson was up against a very different opponent than in the previous five rounds. In Deng Hanwen's words, not only does everyone in the Three Towns work hard, but they also play "like a team". And Yatai and Three Towns bottomed out at the same time, won the first victory, and the subtle changes caused by the standings, will also make Yukun, who is standing still, feel less steady.

Although only 1/5 of the 30 rounds of league games have been completed so far, Yunnan Yukun's first game of three consecutive away games was beaten head-on three times in Wuhan after only half of the game, which was by no means the "start" that Anderson wanted. Next, on April 16 against Chengdu Rongcheng, on April 20 against Changchun Yatai, and on April 25 back to face Shanghai Port at home - in this series of difficult journeys, how to avoid four consecutive defeats? It has become a major difficulty that Yunnan's Super League new army must face.
