Reborn on top of football

With the end of the Sino-Japanese war, the current Asian Cup is coming to an end, and it is also approaching.In another game, Iraq and South Korea fought fiercely for 120 minutes, and finally eliminated South Korea through penalty kicks. After reaching the semi-finals for the first time, they reached the final of the Asian Cup for the first time.

Iraq is in the throes of war, and the national team can't even find a practice ground in Iraq and has to ask friendly countries for help.Probably also in this kind of internal and external troubles and poverty, the internal unity of the Iraqi team reached the highest level in history, and the Iraqi players also let go of their disputes, vigilance, and personal ambitions.Probably this is a kind of "sad soldiers must win". The Iraqi team, which was not strong in the first place, forcibly relied on super-class unity and cooperation to kill the Chinese team.

Wang Ai admires this Iraqi team, and probably understands their situation, but Iraq needs this champion, and China needs it too.

So admiration is admiration, but Wang Ai still intends to go all out.

Before the game, Vice President Xue Li, who was entrusted by Yan Shiduo and came to Indonesia from Beijing, visited the national team players, and even talked to Wang Ai, asking Xiao Wang, did you score two more than one in the first five games on purpose? No, one less

Wang Ai nodded generously and admitted, "Vice Chairman Xue, I have some reservations. After all, our goal is at least the top four. We must use our strength evenly and give opportunities to our teammates."

"What about the final?" Xue Li smiled.

"Look at it," Wang Ai said with a smile.

In fact, after the last game against Japan, the Chinese media made a big fuss about it. Wang Ai broke two important records in one game: one is the scoring record in a single Asian Cup, which was previously set in 1996 Ali Dayi in 2004 and Bai Guanghai in 8 jointly maintained 10 goals, and now Wang Ai has 26 goals; the second is to break the Chinese national team's personal scoring record.At present, Wang Ai has participated in a total of 42 A-level matches of the national team, scored [-] goals and became the "strongest shooter" in the history of the Chinese national team.

For some derivative records above, what is the most efficient and the youngest is what, no need to go into details.

Wang Ai did not score many goals in the last Asian Cup, so even though Wang Ai was full of honors in Europe, he was also recognized in Asia, but there was always a missing piece in the most core Asian Cup. Reality.

At the same time, this ball is basically booked for the Golden Boot of this Asian Cup. Now Wang Ai has 10 goals, the second Bai Guanghai has 5 goals, and the third is Yasir from Saudi Arabia and Naoyasu Takahara from Japan, both with 4 goals. ball.And according to Wang Ai's general law, he is likely to score again in the final, and once again refresh his Asian Cup scorer record.

In this way, in the first half of 2007 and the summer, Wang Ai won a total of four golden boots in the Premier League, Europe, Champions League, and Asian Cup. At the end of the year, the competition for the two grand prizes added a lot of weight

On the day of the final, the Grora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta was finally full of spectators.The two sides in the final, one is the legendary and sympathetic Iraqi team, and the other is the Chinese team with peak strength and Wang Ai. No matter what the result of the game is, it is enough to be talked about.

The two sides that reached the final and South Korea, the winner of the previous third place competition, have directly entered the finals of the 2011 Qatar Asian Cup. And running back and forth.

Before the final, FIFA President Blatter and AFC President Harman went to the middle circle to shake hands with the players of both sides.Wang Ai, the captain of the game, was at the front of the queue, shaking hands with the two big shots and waiting for the start of the game.

At 8:35 in the evening, the referee blew his whistle, marking the start of the last game of this Asian Cup.

The Chinese team set up a 451 formation, single forward Bai Guanghai, single midfielder Wang Ai, bilateral forwards Hao Junmin, Chen Tao, Shao Jiayi and Zheng Zhi partnered double midfielders.After that, Luo Tongliang partnered with Zhang Yaokun as the double central defender, the bilateral defenders were Sun Jihai and Zhang Yonghai, and the goalkeeper was still Zong Lei.

The Iraqi team has limited numbers and did not change the starting lineup for the semifinals.

The starting lineups of both sides are quite satisfactory, similar to the predictions of the outside world.However, the change of the Chinese team was not expected by the outside world. After carefully studying the video of the Iraqi team, the coaching staff of the national team believed that the Iraqi team's individual strength was average, but the integrity was perfect and the cooperation was excellent. Close cooperation, the key is to compete for the midfield.

In this way, the offensive strength is weakened, but Bai Guanghai and Wang Ai are the second and first shooters in this Asian Cup. This combination is worried, what do you want, so let the two of them attack as much as you want, everyone Just come on defense.

Not only that, but the cooperation of bilateral forwards and bilateral defenders also means that the national team's tactical thinking is not conservative. While competing for the midfield, it also means to complete the delivery of shells to the center through wing penetration.

After the start of the game, the focus of the competition between the two sides was indeed on the midfield. Shao Jiayi and Zheng Zhi were able to both attack and defend, while Hao Junmin and Chen Tao had sharp passes and superb footwork. The Chinese team was fully prepared at the beginning I was somewhat cautious, but after a few minutes of collision, I found that Iraq was more nervous than the Chinese team.Although the formation is 442, they play a defensive counterattack. The back line is in the penalty area, the midfielder is at the top of the penalty area, and only two forwards are left behind.

In this way, the Chinese team completely let go.

"You made me fight"

In the 9th minute of the game, Wang Ai received a diagonal pass from Hao Junmin and dribbled the ball around the top of the penalty area to find opportunities. After being blocked by as many as four players, Wang Ai continued to change direction, dribble, and shake , counter-grab, change of direction, dribble, shake

The wonderful display of personal skills finally broke through the encirclement between the two Iraqi players.But at this time, under the siege of four Iraqi players who cooperated tacitly, Wang Ai, who barely rushed out, had lost his center of gravity and could not shoot, so he had to pass in front of the goal. , head start.

1:0

With cheers in the stadium, Lao Bai pulled Wang Ai up and ran back together, greeted with crazy hugs from many teammates.Looking back in the crowd, Wang Ai saw that the Iraqi team members were encouraging each other, but their expressions were still full of frustration.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ai let out a sigh secretly, the spirit of the Iraqi team was knocked out.This is what worries Wang Ai the most.Objectively speaking, Wang Ai doesn't care about the Iraqi team's personal skills, but the high tacit cooperation still makes Wang Ai feel overwhelmed, so he tries to destroy the Iraqi team's confidence in winning through his high-level technical performance.

So far, it seems to be ok.
