Chinese champion

Chapter 278
In the halftime of the Chinese team, all eleven players on the court are now gathered together, forming a circle with their hands clasped together.

"It's not easy for us to get to where we are today." Captain Sun Chenghai said: "Although we have already qualified, I am not satisfied. You are still young, and there is still a chance for the next World Cup, and I am already 29 years old. With the current situation of young players emerging in China, it will be very difficult for me to play in the World Cup four years later. If we lose today, it will be my last World Cup game. I don’t want to do this.”

Speaking of this, Sun Chenghai couldn't help but feel a little bit embarrassed. He still remembers the day when he joined the national team for the first time in 96. At that time, he was only 19 years old. But for other players of the same age, he is still lucky, after all, he caught the last train.

"For the captain, come on! Come on! Come on!" The players shouted in unison, so loud that even the audience in the stands could hear it.

After shouting this, the players dispersed in their own half.

Pei Wei, Zhong Yan, and Dong Yuzhuo walked towards the middle circle together. When they reached the top of the arc and Zhong Yan and Dong Yuzhuo were about to walk to the two sides, Pei Wei suddenly stopped them.

"Xiao Dong, you don't want to always be playing with Yi, do you?" Dong Yuzhuo was taken aback.

"Cup, Florence has also been involved in this phone door incident, and it is very likely to be relegated. Don't you want to find a new club?" Zhong Yan's eyes turned cold, obviously Pei Wei's words reached his heart up.

"The future of both of you next season is not very bright, so you have more reason to perform well. The World Cup is an opportunity. How many people started their brilliant stage after being famous in the World Cup? But in the group stage, Your performance is really not good enough." Pei Wei looked at the two of them and said.

Neither Dong Yuzhuo nor Zhong Yan made a sound, and Pei Wei continued: "You must remember that you were able to play today because Zhanfeng gave up the position that should belong to him, and it is because the coach trusts you two that he continued to give you the opportunity. , I just want to tell you one thing, when you are on the court, you have to throw away all your miscellaneous thoughts and be calm! Xiao Dong, think about how you became the top scorer in Antwerp last season, cup , think about how you have performed well in the limited time you have, you have scored against Dida, there is no reason not to score a goal in the World Cup."

"I see, Brother Pei." Dong Yuzhuo raised his head: "I will not disappoint the trust of the coach and everyone."

Zhong Yan didn't speak, he just nodded vigorously to Pei Wei.

Pei Wei smiled, and he pushed the two of them: "Go back to your seats, the game is about to start!"

************************************************
The game started, and the first serve was the Swiss team.

Frey passed the ball to Yakin, and he ran forward. Yakin passed it back to Vogel. Vogel did not pass the ball, but controlled the ball at his feet, looking up to observe the situation on the field.

After Kuhn came to power, Vogel immediately replaced the famous Sforza as the offensive and defensive core of the Swiss team. In terms of technical characteristics, Vogel and Sforza are very similar. He has the overall view of controlling the midfield, and in terms of career experience, Vogel is no worse than this senior. He has been the main candidate for this Eredivisie team since he moved to PSV Eindhoven. Although he didn't get many playing opportunities after joining AC Milan last year, it is not a problem of his strength. After all, after having the two super midfielders Pirlo and Gattuso, it is difficult for other midfielders to play in AC Milan. Milan survived.

Dong Yuzhuo and Zhong Yan rushed towards Vogel at the same time. Although they were forwards, delaying the opponent's attack during the kick-off period was exactly what a forward should do.

Facing the Chinese striker's attack, Vogel was unafraid and turned around skillfully. He handed the ball to Vicky behind him. Vicky immediately shifted the ball to the right, and Cabanas got the ball.

The Cologne fans in the stands immediately burst into enthusiastic cheers. They liked the player who did not propose a transfer after the team was relegated.

Cabanas easily got rid of Zhu Jun's attack, but he was not so easy immediately, and Wang Xiaomin appeared in front of him.

The Swiss full-back attempted to rely on speed to break through Wang Xiaomin's defense, but Wang Xiaomin's turn was very fast, and he was stuck on the outside all at once.

Cabanas was still a little unconvinced. He was about to squeeze Wang Xiaomin away with his body, but Wang Xiaomin remained motionless as soon as he squeezed down.

"Attack! Attack! Attack!" The Chinese fans in the stands shouted in unison. This full-back who grew up in Brazil has already conquered the hearts of Chinese fans. His defense is fierce, his positioning is accurate, and his assists are timely. If the shooting is really bad, the troublemakers will almost give him the nickname "Carlos of China".

Wang Xiaomin rushed forward with the ball, and Wang Jianxiang shouted in front of the microphone: "The game has just started, and Wang Xiaomin is ready to step forward to assist! The momentum of the Chinese team is overwhelming!"

Vogel ran from the side to defend him, but Wang Xiaomin suddenly moved the ball forward. Vogel was caught off guard, and Wang Xiaomin quickly ran past him and broke through!
Wang Xiaomin, who passed Vogel, did not continue to dribble the ball. When another player was about to come up to defend, he sent the ball with his arch and passed the ball to Zhu Jun in front.

The defensive object in front of Zhu Jun is Philip Degen, who plays for Dortmund, a young right back who is now hot in the European continent.

"New star?" Zhu Jun sneered in his heart: "He was born in 83, the same year as us, how dare you call him a new star?"

Quickly swiped the ball twice with both feet, and then suddenly knocked the ball forward with his left foot, Zhu Jun was about to break through with speed!

Degen's reaction was not slow at all. He turned around quickly and chased after Zhu Jun. At the same time, he relied on fierce body collisions to slow down Zhu Jun's dribbling speed.

"Damn it, those who come out of the Bundesliga really know how to use their bodies..." Zhu Jun cursed in his heart, and suddenly stopped, and his whole body suddenly stopped.

Degen also stopped immediately, and Zhu Jun had to admit that this guy's physical fitness is really good.

"However, relying on this alone can't prevent me!" Seeing that Degen also stopped, Zhu Jun pushed the ball forward again, and his body jumped out!

He reached his top speed almost at the moment of starting. Degen couldn't react to the frequent emergency stop and start. When he turned around, Zhu Jun had already thrown him away by four , Five meters away.

Zhu Jun, who had broken through Degen, took advantage of the situation and entered the penalty area directly. Zhong Yan and Dong Yuzhuo were also in place, pulling constantly in the penalty area.

Magnin moved over, but he did not relax his defense against Zhong Yan, because the angle of Zhu Jun's shot was already very small, and the chance of passing the ball seemed to be much greater.

Sure enough, when Zhu Jun saw Magnin moving over, he immediately put his foot on the ball, as if passing the ball.

Magnin immediately took a step sideways and got stuck between Zhu Jun and Zhong Yan. As long as the ball passed, he would definitely stop him.

It's just that the ball didn't come over, Zhu Jun pulled the ball back, and then volleyed vigorously from the spot!
Zubruhel was also shaken by Zhu Jun's very confusing passing action just now, but his reaction was still very fast, and he flew to the ground and saved the ball out of the baseline.

"The first shot of the game came from the Chinese team!" Wang Jianxiang yelled: "Zhu Brughler saved the goal from a small angle in the penalty area of ​​the Zhu army. Now the Chinese team has won the first corner kick since the start of the game!"

Zhang Qi lobbed the ball into the penalty area, Jiu Nuo's air defense ability was really good, he jumped higher than anyone else, and headed the ball out of the penalty area.

Kuhn relaxed a little. If Jiu Nuo was on the field, at least he wouldn't have to worry about high-altitude balls on set kicks.

But Menotti sat peacefully. He didn't intend to play any tricks on set kicks. What he wanted was to use the speed of the two forwards to give the Swiss team a fatal blow in sports battles or counterattacks.

Vogel received the ball in front of the penalty area, and he immediately passed the ball long to Frey near the center circle. Now that the two central defenders of the Chinese team are in the opponent's penalty area, it is a good time to counterattack.

Frey broke through with the ball, and Wang Xiaomin immediately stuck to him. Although Frey was physically strong, Wang Xiaomin was three centimeters taller than him, and his physique was not much different. With such a delay, the Chinese team members were already flooded. In desperation, Frey had to pass the ball back to Vicky, and quickly counterattacked and changed to a positional attack.

In fact, in terms of positional warfare, the Swiss team did not have any good solutions. Their only striker seemed so helpless in front of the two tall defenders of the Chinese team. Just like this time, Barnetta managed to be defended by Sun Chenghai. He found a gap and passed the ball into the penalty area, but Li Min didn't give Frey a chance at all. When he was entangled with Du Wei, he directly headed the ball out.

Yajin rushed to shoot in front of Hu Yong, but under Hu Yong's interference, he couldn't hit the goal. Wu Qi easily confiscated the ball.

"This kind of shot is not enough to watch! Go up and attack, there is me behind!" Wu Qi yelled, and threw the ball out.

Indeed, what the Chinese team needs to consider in this game is how to break through the opponent's defense. In terms of defense, it is difficult for Frey, a single striker, to find anything good under the cooperation of Li Min and Du Wei.

Hu Yong's long pass from the forward field was headed off by Jiu Nuo. Barnetta once again broke through Sun Chenghai's defense, shot a strong shot from a small angle, and the ball hit the side net.

Sun Chenghai was a little angry. Originally, the right flank he guarded had always been a relatively strong part of the Chinese team, but after his strength in other positions was greatly improved, his original strongest position became a defect. The opponents in the World Cup always Likes to attack from his side.

The Chinese team launched an attack, Zhang Qi broke through from the side and made a pass, and the ball was pushed out by Jiu Nuo.

Kuhn was relieved a little. It seems that although the Chinese team did not play the high center forward, the tactical style of play has not changed. Either a high ball from the wings or a long pass from the midfielder directly hit the penalty area. This kind of attack can just let Jiu Nuo play. The good side of his header.

Pei Wei took the ball in midfield, and Vicki immediately entangled him.

Although the midfielder who plays for Hamburg is only 1.7 meters tall, he is very strong and weighs 75 kilograms. Compared with him, Pei Wei, who is 1.8 meters tall but weighs only [-] kilograms, looks much thinner.

But weight does not represent strength, otherwise Maradona is still the world champion.

Knocking the ball quickly twice between his feet, Pei Wei suddenly swayed and rushed directly from Vicky's left side.

Vicky turned around and prepared to chase, but Pei Wei had already passed the ball to the left, Zhu Jun made a low pass to the penalty area, and Magnin rushed ahead of Zhong Yan to clear the siege.

Fifteen minutes into the first half of the game, although the Chinese team had the upper hand on the scene, the ball passed into the penalty area was basically controlled by Jiu Nuo, and the occasional few low-level balls were also controlled by the experienced Magnin. rescue.

The young Jiu Nuo's confidence has been greatly increased during this period of the game. In this short 15 minutes, he successfully cleared the siege for four times and won all the one-on-one confrontations. This is already the performance of a world-class central defender.

It seems that after this game, I should be favored by many wealthy families... The 17-year-old teenager thought complacently.

After shrinking the defense for a period of time, it seemed that the Chinese team's offense was nothing special, and the Swiss team slowly began to press up.

The midfielder of the Chinese team made several passing errors during this period. From the perspective of the Swiss team, this was the result of being pressed closely by the midfielder.

The ball Zhang Qi crossed to Pei Wei was intercepted by Vicki ahead of time. He took a few steps forward and saw that no one was defending him. After adjusting a few times, he suddenly took a long shot from 30 meters away!

This long shot was very quality, Wu Qi didn't dare to neglect, he jumped up and saved the ball to the bottom line with one hand!
"Pay attention to pressing in the midfield! Don't let them lead you like this after losing the ball!" Wu Qi yelled.

"Didn't you say that such a shot is not enough to watch? What's the rush now?" Li Min couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Damn, you don't want to release the water, do you? I lost the ball and your faces look good?" Wu Qi said depressingly.

"What you said makes sense." Li Min said thoughtfully, "It seems that we really need to work harder."

For the Swiss team's corner kick, Jiu Nuo also ran up. Originally, he would also come up to help the offense when Sandros was there, and achieved good results. Now his self-confidence has grown and he is the second long time of Sandros. Nuo naturally has to follow suit.

When the corner kick came out, Jiu Nuo imagined winning the header like he did in his own penalty area, but this time the defenders of the Chinese team were not polite. Du Wei got stuck in his position ahead of time, pushed him away with a shoulder, and then The ball is easily topped out of the penalty area.

"Be careful of their counterattack!" Kuhn yelled off the court. The Chinese team's quick counterattack is very threatening.

His uneasiness was verified. Pei Wei ran all the way after receiving the ball. Vicki was quickly defeated by his speed. He kept bringing the ball to the front of the top of the penalty area of ​​the Swiss team, and then his shot was quickly returned. The defensive left back Muller blocked it with his body.

Almost half an hour passed in the first half, the two sides basically had offense and defense, and Jiu Nuo had been performing quite well, which also made Kuhn feel relieved.

But the deadlock was broken at this seemingly peaceful moment.

The Swiss team's attack was blocked, and Hu Yong immediately distributed the ball to Pei Wei's feet in the middle circle.

At that time, only Dong Yuzhuo was in front of Pei Wei, and the Swiss team's two central defenders and a defensive midfielder were defending in front of them. It seemed that the Chinese team had no chance of counterattacking this time.

Wei Ji stopped in front of Pei Wei. He knew that as long as he could slow down the opponent's attack speed, the Chinese team's counterattack would fall into the quagmire of positional warfare again.

But Pei Wei didn't go as far as in the previous game, but directly tiptoed, and the ball flew across the Swiss team's half in an instant!
The moment Pei Wei passed the ball, Dong Yuzhuo rushed past Jiunuo like a leopard. Jiunuo, who had already despised him, didn't notice this at all. When he turned around, Dong Yuzhuo had already Nearly ten meters behind him.

"Offside!" Magnin raised his hand, but he immediately ran back like crazy - the lineman did not raise the flag, but ran down with Dong Yuzhuo, successfully offside!
If Magnin chased back in the first time, he might still catch up with Dong Yuzhuo, but after a delay, Dong Yuzhuo's speed has been fully displayed. Although the two fast full-backs of the Swiss team are desperately chasing , but since they had already assisted and stepped forward just now, there was no chance of catching up at all.

As for Jiu Nuo - how fast can you expect from a 1.9-meter-two defender?
Therefore, around Dong Yuzhuo, there is only one goalkeeper who can threaten him!

"Calm down! Calm down! I want to be calm!" Dong Yuzhuo kept admonishing himself in his heart.

"Think about how you became the top scorer last season!" Pei Wei's voice sounded in his head, and Dong Yuzhuo took the last step and entered the penalty area!

Zubruhel attacked, and several shooting methods flashed through Dong Yuzhuo's mind.

Loose?push?Or pass the goalkeeper?
At this moment, Dong Yuzhuo decided to pass the goalkeeper!

In fact, it is not very difficult to pass the goalkeeper, especially for a forward who is good at speed.

Dong Yuzhuo raised his right foot, as if he was going to hit him, Zubruhel was really fooled, and immediately fell to the ground to rush, but Dong Yuzhuo just dunked the ball, and then swung Zubruhel's hand completely away. , followed by a slight push of the right foot...
