Chapter 198 Lost

"That ball was clearly a foul!" Zhong Weiguo still cared about the penalty for that ball, and Kong Pengyu was still lying on his side on the ground, but the referee didn't say anything about No. 2's actions.

"Get ready," Cheng Youcheng said to the team doctor next to him. They may need to come in to deal with Kong Pengyu, but the referee hasn't stopped the game yet.

"Whether he brags or not is a matter of his scale," Cheng Youcheng said to Zhong Weiguo, covering his mouth with his hands, "but it's not really bragging. Our team has suffered a lot of bad luck. It's inevitable for all teams, and we have to find a way out of it."

On the field, Kong Pengyu stood up slowly with his arms around his abdomen. The referee stopped the game at this moment, and the national football team doctor entered the field immediately.

Kong Pengyu was invited out of the court for treatment, and the game continued. Fortunately, Kong Pengyu's problem was not very serious.

"Be careful of their defense, it's very dangerous, keep the distance and speed, don't let him touch you." Cheng Youcheng said to Kong Pengyu while he was treating him on the sidelines, "If you can't get through it, you can fight back. Be careful, don't rush forward too much."

The referee indicated that Kong Pengyu, who had completed the treatment, re-entered the field. There were still about 10 minutes before halftime, and the score between the two sides was still 0:0.

In the 44th minute of the game, under Australia's fierce rush, the space on the right was exposed again. This time, after a successful interception by Mu Dingyong, he sent a pass to Kong Pengyu.

Kong Pengyu still has the old idea of ​​taking the ball, first speeding up the distance between himself and the opposing full-back, and then leaning in.

The No. 2 central defender appeared on Kong Pengyu's way forward. If he wanted to enter the penalty area, Kong Pengyu had to stand his test.

Meng Hezhou in the middle and Yu Mai on the left have both caught up and are asking for the ball from Kong Pengyu. They ran into a good position.

Kong Pengyu was on the penalty area line, moving the ball slowly, and the No. 2 central defender faced him in a standard sideways defensive position.

Just like the moment at the beginning of the game, Kong Pengyu made another fake swing to the left, and then rushed to the bottom line immediately.

"Dick!" The referee awarded a penalty kick to the Chinese team!
Kong Pengyu's explosive power is too strong!Such a sudden acceleration caused No. 2 to foul in a panic. He wanted to stretch his legs to steal the ball, but the ball was touched by Kong Pengyu first, and he put Kong Pengyu down in the penalty area.

Since the number one penalty shooter Mi was not there, the penalty created by Kong Pengyu was taken by the captain of the national football team, Di Xiaoliang.

The audience waited with bated breath, waiting for Di Xiaoliang's run-up free throw.

"Oh!" There were voices of regret bursting out from the stadium. The goalkeeper of the Australian team withstood the pressure and saved Di Xiaoliang's penalty!

When Di Xiaoliang shot, he chose the right side of the goal and hit a half-high ball. The goalkeeper guessed the direction and successfully saved the Australian team.

After a while, the first half of the game ended. With the regret of not scoring a penalty, the Chinese team and the Australian team entered the intermission.

Cheng Youcheng did not change the formation, but emphasized the accuracy of ball control and passing, the way of handling the ball and other aspects in the style of play.

"The opponent's physical confrontation ability is very strong, which is not a small test for us," he said. "What we have to do is to reduce the physical confrontation with them, optimize our control, and consume their physical strength. Everyone must hold on."

In the 50th minute of the game, after the intermission, both sides adjusted their playing styles on the field. The Chinese team strengthened their control, and Australia's protection of the two wings became more adequate.

The possession rate of the Chinese team surpassed that of the Australian team for the time being, but there were very few opportunities to break into the 30-meter area of ​​the opponent's front court.

Xu Wenli tried to dribble from the center circle to the left. After breaking through a defensive player, the path forward was not conducive to further dribbling, and it was a dead end.

There were two Australian players between Yu Mai and Xu Wenli. They kept the defensive distance very close, making it inconvenient for Xu Wenli to pass the ball to him.

Xu Wenli turned around, facing his own half, unexpectedly made a backheel pass, and passed the ball between the two of them.

The two of them thought that Xu Wenli was going to pass back, so they didn't follow. They didn't know that Xu Wenli would immediately make such a pass as soon as he turned around.

It was not easy for Yu Mai to get the ball. The opponent's full-backs squeezed him aside, making him unsure of overtaking from the side.

Meng Hezhou came to the left in time to respond, and after getting the ball passed to him by Yu Mai, he took it directly to the penalty area.

As a forward, Meng Hezhou has excellent ball protection ability.He took the ball all the way to the left penalty area line, but the opponent didn't give him a chance to kick.

He took a few steps back, caught a glimpse of Kong Pengyu who was asking for the ball from the right, turned sideways and passed the ball diagonally.

Kong Pengyu unloaded the ball from his chest, let it fall on his feet, flicked it out, got out of the way, and pushed directly in the penalty area.

"Bang!" His shot hit the near post and bounced off the baseline!

"Ah!" Kong Pengyu was extremely regretful, and couldn't help but yelled to vent.

The fans at the scene were still positive. They applauded the performance of the Chinese team, and the voice of cheering and cheering remained unabated.

In the 72nd minute of the game, the Chinese team made the first personnel adjustment, replacing Kong Pengyu, Xu Wenli and Di Xiaoliang.

The audience's applause was given to these three people this time. Their performance today was not bad. If Kong Pengyu's iron-forged goal could score, the atmosphere might be even more enthusiastic.

Cheng Youcheng is now starting to train players, and Bao Zihao, who has not started, can also show his strength.

In the 83rd minute of the game, the atmosphere on the field lost the enthusiasm of the previous 80 minutes and became a bit dull, because both sides replaced a large number of substitute players.

This time, Cheng Youcheng also removed Mu Dingyong and Battelle, and replaced them with two central defenders. This is equivalent to the Chinese team having three central defenders on the field, and they do not plan to attack more.

In the 91st minute of the game, the Australian team got a free kick on the right side of the frontcourt, and they lobbed the ball directly into the penalty area.

Immediately there was a crowd of people in the penalty area, jumping up first to fight for the header, and Australia's handling of the first landing point was to ferry the header.

The Australian player at the back point stopped the ball and was about to shoot when a sudden force pulled him to the ground.

"Dick!" The referee awarded the Australian team a penalty!
Hu Wen made a mistake in defending the ball. He wanted to interfere with the player who was about to shoot, but somehow his feet slipped. In desperation, he brought down the Australian team player. The joint action made the referee firm in the penalty kick.

Everyone except the goalkeeper and the player who took the penalty kick was invited out of the field. Australia's No. 17, who just played here, is about to take the penalty.

The goalkeeper of the Chinese team is now replaced by Yan Yi. He is the youngest of the three goalkeepers and has been the main goalkeeper of the Olympic team before.

Run-up on the 17th, shoot!Hit the bottom left corner of the goal!
Yan Yi guessed the right direction, but the speed of the ball was very fast, he was a little bit late, what a pity!

Australia away 1:0 Chinese team!
The referee didn't wait for the Chinese team to kick off, and directly blew the whistle for the end of the game. In this game, the Chinese team was lore at the last moment.

"Indeed, sometimes the more you want to defend, the easier it is to make mistakes." Cheng Youcheng said after the game, this sentence summed up the performance of the Chinese team at the end of the game.
