Chapter 638 Fighting Germany ([-])
Qi Bing tried his best to shovel, he could be said to be successful if he didn't succeed, but Royce was extremely calm at this moment, he lightly buckled his ankle, as if he had lightly buckled Qi Bing.
We can't blame Qi Bing here, because as a defender, it is still very important to shovel out at the critical moment. Even if he is dunked, at least it can delay the opponent's shot.
Qi Bing's desperate tackle was delayed for about a second, and it was this second that bought time for Qi Qi behind him. He rushed forward to block Royce's shooting angle as much as possible.
Royce swung his leg and shot, and the ball hit Qi Qi's face and flew out of the baseline.
The ball went out of the bottom line, and the biggest hero of the ball seemed to be Qi Qi, who was rubbing his face.
Team leader Zhou Dun came over and touched Qi Rate's big face, "Fortunately, his face is big, but the blocked area is also big."
Qi Bing stood up and said: "Qi Qi's big face is not white."
"As long as you talk nonsense, try kicking your face, it will disfigure you",
"It's okay, if you're not handsome, it's like plastic surgery if you look bad," Qi Bing said.
"I'll hit you again after the game is over."
Although the German team's one-time goal was resolved, the situation of the Chinese team is still not optimistic. The German team still controls the situation, especially in the midfield.
*****
Huang Jianxiang and Duan Xuan were worried.
"Does Jianxiang feel alike"?
"what alike",
Duan Xuan didn't continue, he was afraid that he would be scolded by the national audience again.
In fact, Duan Xuan refers to the 2002 World Cup. The Korean team in that World Cup can be regarded as creating a "miracle", but in the end they were eliminated by the German team in the semi-finals.
History seems to be a reincarnation. It has been 16 years. In the semi-finals of the World Cup, there was another PK between an Asian team and the German team, and the leading team was still the German team.
Jian Xiang understood, "Looking like you, the Korean stick is based on deception, and we rely on strength. I firmly believe that the Chinese team can reach the final."
"Old Huang, don't get mad, I didn't say anything",
In fact, Huang Jianxiang also thinks that history is a bit similar, but he is stubborn. As a person in the football circle, he knows that the next time the Chinese team reaches the semi-finals is not known.
On the other side, Loew looked at the bench of the Chinese team, with a smile on his face. How far is the preparation work of the German team?
Loew has studied all the information on the beliefs of the 23 players in the Chinese team, so he knows that at this critical moment, there is no one in the Chinese team that can be replaced.
But Stan still made a substitution. This was a regular substitution. Zhang Yuning replaced Hao Junmin. This may be the only person Stan can change.
Despite the fact that Stan brought 23 people to Russia, only 12 to 13 are really useful. The level of the others is still far from the requirements of the World Cup.
After the substitution, Stan returned to the bench and Queiroz said, "As a coach, I have played my last card, and it's up to them next."
Queiroz looked at Stan, and he felt that the most correct thing in his life was to join Stan's team and participate in this great journey.
Two great head coaches watched the field from the sidelines, their faces were calm, no matter what the result was, they had no regrets.
*****
Everyone in the German team has a strong ability to control the ball. As long as they are careful, the Chinese team will have no chance to get the ball at all. Without the ball, there is no chance to counterattack. Li Qiao in front is useless even if he is a superman.
There is a saying that "great offenses are careless".
In the calm, the German team is already brewing a killer move, and Kroos is observing with the ball in the midfield.
After halftime, Wang Kong's pressing ability is not as good as before, and only Zhang Yuning, who has just played, is grabbing the ball.
Kroos observed that he was in a triangle with Ozil and Müller. As the midfield organizer of the German team, Kroos instinctively realized that this was a good opportunity.
But there is a problem, that is, Ozil is walking back. Kroos expected that if Ozil was walking back, then he would turn around after taking the ball and then distribute the ball.
In the end, Kroos still chose to trust Ozil, he pushed the ball over, and it turned out that he was right. As a midfielder, Ozil had already observed Müller when he received the ball.
The most subtle thing about this ball is Ozil's "flick". If Ozil turns around, then Zhou Dun and Wei Xiao will tighten the defensive fence, but Ozil does not, so the suddenness of this ball is very strong.
After taking the ball, Muller passed through the midfield of Zhou Dun and Wei Xiao, forming a beautiful anti-offside. It was too late for Zhou Dun and Wei Xiao to chase back, and they could only follow the lead.
Facing the alignment rate, Muller chose a lob shot. After the ball passed the alignment rate, it slowly rolled towards the goal. It seemed that the goal was a certainty, but at this moment, Zhou Dun's eyes lit up, and someone was chasing him back. That person was Qi Bing.
Qi Bing kicked the ball on the goal line, and the German team missed another chance for a lore. Müller hugged his head and regretted that he missed two must-goal chances in one game.
Perhaps due to the failure to score a penalty kick in the first half, Muller paid great attention to the control of strength in this lob shot. It is because of this that Qi Bing's pursuit will be in time.
Loew jumped anxiously on the sidelines. What a great opportunity. Thomas is like this today. Fortunately, the German team is leading. Otherwise, Muller would be the national sinner of the whole of Germany today.
But there is a saying that if you waste an opportunity, you will be punished. There is also a saying in China that if you survive a catastrophe, there will be future blessings. I don’t know if the Chinese team will have future blessings today.
But the first thing the Chinese team has to do is to equalize the score as soon as possible, otherwise everything is nonsense.
*****
At 35 minutes into the second half of the game, Zhou Dun, the iron man of the Chinese team, fell down. Zhou Dun had already run more than 1 meters. In order to defend the strong German team in this game, Zhou Dun used all his strength to run so that the Chinese team has only scored one goal by the German team so far.
Wei Xiao was stretching Zhou Dun's leg. Zhou Dun should have cramp, but a slight cramp is fine. If it's severe, he might not be able to hold on.
Stan on the sidelines was very anxious. Zhou Dun was the pinnacle of the Chinese team. If he couldn't hold on, then the Chinese team basically surrendered in the last 10 minutes.
Team doctor Dong Zhou was giving Zhou Dun a leg press massage. Zhou Dun also drank some sports drinks and replenished electrolytes, hoping that this would relieve him a bit. Of course, the most important thing is to grit his teeth and persevere.
A few minutes later, Zhou Dun stood up and applied to the referee on the sidelines to return to the court.
An iron man like Zhou Dun was running into cramps, and the rest of the field were almost the same, whether it was the Chinese team or the German team.
But the World Cup is like this, the outcome is determined by one game, the more critical it is when the physical strength is exhausted.
Now even at the risk of injury, the players of the two teams still have to grit their teeth and persevere, because they represent the national honor.
The ball passed in the midfield and reached Zhang Yuning's feet. He may be the only player on the court who can still run.
After Zhang Yuning took the ball, he turned around easily. The little guy felt very strange. In fact, on the one hand, the German players were tired. On the other hand, the more important thing was that Zhang Yuning was not well-known, and the German players did not pay much attention to him.
So Zhang Yuning ran forward with the ball, but no one paid attention to him. The little guy suddenly burst into confidence. He ran forward with the ball, and the German players didn't react until they were in front of the penalty area.
Draxler was the first to pounce, but Zhang Yuning passed him unexpectedly. Seeing that Zhang Yuning was about to enter the penalty area, Hummels, who pounced second, fouled in desperation.
The referee gave the Chinese team a free kick in front of the penalty area, about 25 meters away from the goal.
After Hummels fouled, he regretted it. He forgot that the Chinese team had Li Qiao. As a former teammate, Hummels knew how good Li Qiao's free kicks were.
"This is probably the last chance for the Chinese team in this game," Huang Jianxiang was already roaring.
Li Qiao stood in front of the ball without hesitation. The German team formed a wall of 8 people, and Neuer was carefully directing.
All the players of the Chinese team stood up, as if they had won a penalty.
Stan believes in Li Qiao, and he also knows that this is probably the last chance for the Chinese team in this game.
Li Qiao ran up, shot, and drew the most important goal of his career.
It is still the iconic deciduous ball, just like it was kicked out thousands of times during training. The ball flew over the wall and then fell quickly. Neuer has seen such a ball too many times in training, but this does not mean that Neuer can easily deal with it.
The ball flew to the upper left corner of the goal, Neuer jumped up to save it, Neuer made it, but the ball was not saved from the bottom line, but continued to drill into the goal.
The ball is in! !
Duan Xuan and Huang Jianxiang in the stands were overjoyed, and the Chinese players on the bench were also overjoyed. Although I don’t know if this goal can bring a miracle to the Chinese team, at least this goal will allow the Chinese team to continue to compete in the World Cup.
And this goal greatly affected the morale of the German team. In the last 10 minutes, the German team did not score another goal, and the score remained at 1-1.
When the final whistle blew, the players on both sides were exhausted to the ground, and the 90-minute high-level confrontation consumed all the physical strength of the players.
But the score of 1 to 1 means that the two sides will enter the cruel overtime. During the short rest period, the team doctors of both sides are doing their best to help the players recover a little, even if it is a part of their physical fitness.
Loew looked at the players of the Chinese team. Before the game, he expected that the game would be very likely, but he really did not expect that the Chinese team had the ability to drag the German team into overtime.
