Reporter Chen Yong reports 4-0, the recently controversial Taishan team finally won the FA Cup 1/8 finals, and on the 17th, they defeated the West Coast and advanced to the top 8 of the FA Cup. But in this game, the real gain of the Taishan team is the young people, and their performance is better than the outside world thinks.

When the starting lineups of the two sides were released, the results were actually predictable: the Taishan team sent the only two foreign aid who could play, and the West Coast basically played as a substitute, and the lineup that defeated the Zhejiang team 5-2 only started with Biwuquier, Jin Yangyang and Chen Yuhao, and the other four foreign aides and naturalized player Alan did not start. The choice of the West Coast is very simple, they are mainly relegated, and the home game against Meizhou in the Chinese Super League on the 21st is more important.

In the starting list of the Taishan team, foreign players Cressan and Kazaishvili played. local players, veteran players only have Zhang Chi; Four people from the Mesozoic Era, namely Liu Yang, Gao Zhunyi and Huang Zhengyu at the age of 95 and Chen Pu at the age of 97; There are four young players, in addition to goalkeeper Jin Yong, there are Jia Feifei, Abdu and Mai Wulang.

This is a standard lineup of foreign players + Mesozoic + young players, especially the entire midfield, which is almost completely handed over to three young people, and their performance did not disappoint the fans. In the first half, the Taishan team took a 1-0 lead, this goal, after Cressan heel pass, Abdo quickly handed the ball to Chen Pu, Chen Pu handed it to Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi crossed and bought Wulang to win the empty goal, unfortunately he hit the post, fortunately after the rebound, Chen Pu made up for the goal. In addition, in the 37th minute, after Mai Wulang and Abdu cooperated, the latter hit the post from a small angle, and luck was not on the side of the Taishan youngster.

In addition to being involved in the goal, what is even more gratifying is that the three youngsters showed their confidence and courage, such as Mai Wulang has been trying to play various combinations with his teammates, including backheel passes; Abdo's role is more of that of an offensive playmaker; Jia Feifei mainly exerts his interception and combing ability.

After half-time, Choi Kang-hee replaced the three youngsters in the midfield, Zheng Zheng, Li Yuanyi and Peng Xinli came on. Regarding this substitution, Cui Kangxi gave an explanation: "The young people played the first half, the content of the game was okay, and the other players also needed to play to stimulate their physical fitness, which was a tactical arrangement." But the fans are somewhat dissatisfied with this. However, Cui Kangxi's choice is also normal, for a period of time in the future, the Taishan team has a dense schedule, from July 17th to August 21st, 36 days away, they have to play 7 games, and reasonable rotation is normal.

Goalkeeper Kim Yong played the whole game, and in the game, he made wonderful saves, including saving long-range shots, blocking one-on-one balls, and saving opponents from close range to hit the goal, this is his first professional appearance, although he is 2 meters tall, but he has quick reflexes. After the game, all parties recognized Jin Yong's performance, and Cui Kangxi also said: "I have communicated with the goalkeeper coach that Yu Jin Yong has good technical ability, shows a good state, is better than expected, and shows good competitiveness." ”

Yu Jinyong said that one game can't say anything, and the next thing is to "continue to work hard, improve in all aspects, and become better." He revealed that Choi Kang-hee gave him a lot of encouragement before the game and asked him to do what he wanted to do.

After beating the West Coast 4-0, Taishan advanced to the last eight of the FA Cup, and in the next quarter-finals, they will sit at home against Henan, and if they win again, they will play the winner of Nanjing City and Rongcheng at home in the semi-finals. It's a good schedule.

The young people have momentum, of course, there are shortcomings, such as the overall control is still lacking, and the details are also lacking, but in this game, they played their own characteristics and won with the team, so this kind of training is very valuable.

In the case of the disappointment of the Chinese Super League, the FA Cup is the last chance for the Taishan team to compete for the championship, and in the next three games, Cui Kangxi may not use young players so boldly, including in the league, there is a high probability that there will not be four young starters. However, in the case of not playing in the league, Choi Kang-hee can give one or two young people the opportunity to start each game, and the veteran players can rotate more, leaving better fitness and condition for the FA Cup and the Asian game.

In fact, when it comes to the training of young people, it is naturally impossible to play 90 minutes per game, but continuous play is the key, and it is difficult to maintain the state it should be even if it is the main player who plays a few games.
