Midfielder Ruler

With the referee of the referee Kasoy blowing the whistle at the end of the first half, the final round of the 2014 Brazil World Cup Group C at Pantanal Stadium Colombia led the Chinese team by 1: 0 to end the first half.

In another game played at Castelao Stadium, the Greek team led Côte d’ Ivoire 2: 0 in the half, which means that the Chinese team can end the game with the advantage of a goal difference. Promoted to the top 16 of this World Cup.

But there were still forty-five minutes in the game. The Chinese team was behind, the overall strength was inferior to Colombia, and the defense was crumbling.

In contrast, the Greek team led Côte d’ Ivoire with two goals in the first half of the game. It is likely that Côte d’ Ivoire, which had lost both games before, will try its best to strengthen the attack in the second half for the glory of the national team. By then, the Greek team with two goals can get more space to fight back To score more goals.

Therefore, after the start of the second half of the game, it is very likely that two situations will occur.

The Chinese team continued to concede goals and the Greek team continued to score.

If there is a positive and a negative in the two games, the Chinese team's goal difference will change from ‘0’ to ‘-1’, and the Greece team ’s goal difference will change from ‘-1’ to ‘0’.

During the intermission, whether it was Chinese fans at the Pantanal Stadium or Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV, it seemed anxious.

Before the game, the Greek national team once thought that the Greek fans who missed the 16th World Cup were extremely excited. Half a half of the past. The situation of the two games was clear at a glance. Another Chinese team in Group C, who was promoted to the top, was unable to organize an effective attack, and the Greek team He scored two goals in limited time and limited opportunities.

Fans with a little knowledge of football know that Côte d’ Ivoire, who lost all the previous two rounds of the group stage, is definitely impossible to give up the offense. It is very likely that more goals will be scored!

Thinking that the national team can score more goals in the next game time, both the Greek fans on the spot and the Greek fans in front of the TV are very excited and look forward to the moment.

Shortly afterwards, Chinese players returned to the home team's locker room one after another. Assistant coach Madaloni closed the door. The noise from the stadium came to an abrupt halt, and the previously good atmosphere became somewhat depressed.

It turned out that one of Lippi ’s assistants, Li Tie, had informed the players that the Greek team is currently leading Côte d’ Ivoire by 2: 0.

Chinese players, including Tang Zheng, are all frowning and anxious.

Before the game, I knew that Colombia was strong, but I did n’t really experience the strength of Colombia until the game started, and in the first half, Colombia also took a part of the main players off, which means that the best Colombia will be more terrifying.

With the passage of time, considering the criticality of the knockout, Pekerman will surely let the main players return to the field to find the state. When the time comes ...

Colombia is more difficult to deal with!

It is now behind 0: 1 and the equalizer looks far away.

Coupled with the Greek team's two goals ahead of Côte d'Ivoire, they are very likely to score again.

The trade-offs have changed, and the qualifying situation has become plain and confusing.

So many Chinese players can't help but sigh when they think of it, but Tang Zheng and Lu Liang frown, but they are not reconciled.

Lippi's wise eyes swept across the Chinese players present, shaking his head while watching.

Even if he has rich experience in coaching career, it is difficult to change the overall temperament of a team.

Although confidence is invisible and intangible, it is crucial to the game.

Lippi nodded until his eyes reached Lu Liang and Tang Zheng.

The biggest reliance on the Chinese team to participate in this World Cup was Tang Zheng and attacker Lu Liang, especially Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng's energy has always been immeasurable, as long as he is in good condition, any possibility can happen.

Lu Liang was a young boy, he became famous early, and his quotient was high. The only drawback was that his mind was not mature enough. There was no way to compare with Tang Zheng when he was nineteen, so the result was that the state was not stable enough.

But the state can be driven. The energy erupted by Lu Liang is terrifying. After all, he is only 19 years old.

The fifteen minutes of the intermission soon passed, and the Chinese team and the Columbia team appeared on the field to exchange venues, but the referee Kaushaoy did not sound the whistle, but waited for the Greece and Côte d’ Ivoire of Castelao Stadium. Start the game at the same time when you are ready.

In order to reduce the manipulation of the game, kick-off at the same time in the first and second half becomes an indispensable part of a major game.

It is worth mentioning that neither the Chinese team nor Colombia made adjustments to the lineup on the field, but the leading Colombia did not make adjustments to understand, but the Chinese team was behind. In another game, Greece led Côte d’ Ivoire by two goals and did not make adjustments. It's a bit puzzling.

Yang 5 commentator He Wei looked down at the data in his hand and said in a deep voice: "The Chinese team was in continuous passive defense in the first half, which is directly related to Tang Zheng ’s participation in the offense. I have a set of data in my hand. Tang Zheng entered the 30-meter defense in Colombia The regional Chinese team's offensive created a threat that is much more obvious than Tang Zheng's failure to enter the 30-meter zone of Colombia's defense. I wonder if Silver Fox Lippi should find a time to liberate Tang Zheng and let him participate more in the team attack……"

The commentator Xu Yang also nodded: "Defense is the basis for Tang Zheng to become a professional player, but the offensive makes Tang Zheng recognized by the world!"

In fact, Lippi did not deliberately bury Tang Zheng's talent, but the position of defensive midfielder is very important.

Because Lippi has always believed in one sentence: attack to win fans, defense to win championships, especially tournament-based games.

Is n’t that the case with the 2006 World Cup in Germany?

Zheng Zhi is very experienced. As he ages and his playing habits become more and more suitable as a defensive midfielder, his double back with Tang Zheng becomes the most stable link in Lippi's tactical system.

As long as it is absolutely necessary, Lippi will not liberate Tang Zheng.

Moreover, the goal difference is now one ahead of Greece.

Not in a hurry!

But ... James Rodriguez scored again in the fourth minute of the second half.

An inattentive pass by Li Xuepeng in the backcourt was intercepted by Jackson Martinez, and then a direct pass to find Hames Rodriguez who did not return.

Hames Rodriguez received a direct pass from Jackson Martinez during the high-speed running and entered the penalty area. Feng Xiaoting carried a yellow card on his face and faced the highly skilled Hames Rodri Gus didn't dare to stretch his feet easily and hold his position until Hames Rodriguez took the initiative to make mistakes.

However, Hames Rodriguez was very calm, but instead continuously used the change of the body's center of gravity to deceive Feng Xiaoting's unstable center of gravity.

Yan Junling, who was guarding the near corner, was already on guard and chose to abandon the door!

Hames Rodriguez, who shook away Feng Xiaoting, lifted his left foot and opened the door.

Because the distance is too close, Yan Junling did not have time to wait for Hames Rodriguez to finish the shot before making a judgment, but directly chose to rush to the close corner.

If Yan Junling faced an offensive player who was an ordinary player, he scored eight out of nine of the ball, but Hames Rodriguez was not a normal player. He was a player who could become a world-class superstar, so he was quite calm.

Instead of touching the ball with the forefoot, Hames Rodriguez rubbed the left foot with the forefoot, but rubbed the inside of the left foot towards the bottom of the football.

The football was forced into the air and fell from the top of Yan Junling's head to the goal.

Li Xuepeng, who came quickly to the goal line, wanted to turn the tide, but he couldn't help vacating the height enough and could only watch the football hit the snow-white net.

"Aoao--"

Suddenly, the Pantanal Stadium became a sea of ​​joy for Colombian fans, and their continuous high voices rang from above.

Chinese fans, who occupy almost half of the stadium, looked at the Colombian players celebrating the goal, and they felt extremely uncomfortable.

Although the score at Castelao Stadium has not changed, the score is still 2-0 ahead of Côte d’ Ivoire, but now the points and goal difference of the Chinese team and the Greek team are both -1, and the game has nearly 40 minute!

According to the manuscript prepared before the game, He Wei, the central 5 commentator, said: "According to the same rules of the World Cup group points, when the points and the goal difference are the same, they are compared with each other ..."

Before he finished speaking, He Wei Yuguang noticed the latest score of another game in the lower left corner of the broadcast screen. His pupil shrank suddenly, as if he saw the most incredible thing in the world, he exclaimed suddenly: "God! The Greek team scored again! They lead Côte d’ Ivoire 3: 0! "

In other words, there is no need to compare the complicated coefficients of the two teams now, because the number of goal difference of the Greek team has changed from ‘-1’ to ‘0’!

If the two games end the whole game according to the existing scores, the Greek team will force the Chinese team to become another spending line team in Group C ...

The Chinese players on the course naturally do not know that the score on the other course has quietly changed, but they can feel a huge crisis!

※※※

Colombian players arbitrarily celebrate the goal. Hames Rodriguez, who scored twice in this game, is rare in playing a kneeling celebration, venting the ‘huge’ psychological pressure before the game!

Especially when he thought about the bad record of Tang Zheng's team in the past, he roared excitedly again.

Pekerman in front of the visiting team coach shook his head and smiled bitterly. Although the Chinese team had Lippi headed and Tang Zheng in the midfield, there was still no way to change the fact that the Chinese team's overall strength was insufficient.

Originally, Pekerman was the most hopeful team to lose, and then became the group's second against Costa Rica, the overall strength is relatively weak.

However, the strength of the Chinese team is too poor, even the direct threat of goalkeeper Ospina shot did not appear a few times.

If he loses to the Chinese team, as the head coach, even if he wants to know how the media will be criticized by the toes, he may even become the target of the FIFA investigation and become a target.

Now two goals lead, according to the current overall strength of the Chinese team, it is a bit difficult to break Ospina's goal.

He wondered if he should make substitutions to make those players who haven't played before show up on the World Cup stage.

At the same time, Lippi in front of the home team coach felt a thunderbolt.

First, the Chinese team conceded another goal, two goals behind Colombia, and then learned from the assistant Madaloni the other venue in Greece 3-0 ahead of Côte d'Ivoire, which had lost both games.

It is equivalent to say that the Greek team now ranks second and ranks second in the group!

If there is no way to score a goal in the remaining game time, the Chinese team can only be eliminated under the good situation!

Reminiscent of this, Lippi suddenly turned his head to communicate urgently with Madaloni to see if he should make substitutions in advance.

Two minutes later, the Chinese team requested a substitution.

Zhang Xizhe replaced Wu Sanshi who didn't have much room to play in this game, and Hao Junmin's position was adjusted to the familiar right side.

However, this substitution adjustment did not bring a positive effect to the Chinese team in desperate need of scoring. Once the defense-to-offense football entered the 30-meter area, it was difficult to move forward.

Tang Zheng and Zheng Zhi's participation in the offensive are very limited. The two full-backs are afraid that the space behind them will be used. They did not dare to get too high without the approval of head coach Lippi. Pina threatened the goal.

Several minutes have passed since the game, and Colombia has also made substitution adjustments.

Messiah replaced Quintero.

Messia, who came off the bench, also brought head coach Pekerman's latest tactical idea, that is, Mingjin withdrew his troops and gave up more time to control the ball.

Of course, this is not to say that Colombia completely gave up possession of the ball ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ but the offense played more directly.

Once the offense is not scored, the defensive player must quickly return to his own half to defend, so it is easy for the Chinese team to switch from defense to offense.

Lippi, the Chinese coach, stood pacing back and forth in the coaching area of ​​the home team. It is not difficult to see from the broadcast screen that he is very anxious.

At this moment, assistant coach Madaloni appeared on the broadcast screen, his expression was very dignified, and then said a few words in Lippi's ear.

Immediately, Lippi's face also became dignified, and it can even be said ... very ugly!

The Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV watched the score hints given in the lower left corner of the broadcast screen, the same is true.

Three goals ahead of the Greek team scored another goal, in the game to the 60th minute 4: 0 lead the defeated Ivory Coast!

In other words, the Chinese team's goal difference is still at -1, and the Greece team's goal difference has changed from ‘0’ to ‘1’, which is two more than the Chinese team ’s goal difference.

The game is still half an hour away, but for the current Chinese team, it has come to the cliff!

Yang Wei, the 5 commentator, said with excitement: "There is not much time left for the Chinese team! Silver Fox Lippi must make greater changes to the game!"

"Yes!" Commentary guest Xu Yang solemnly said: "Liberation of Tang Zheng! It is urgent!"

Lippi listened to the noise from the stands, rubbing his temples with his forefinger, and after about five seconds, he turned to his assistant Madaloni and said, "Call Cai to prepare to play!"

The broadcast picture followed quickly and came to the warm-up area.

As soon as He Wei's voice changed, he shouted: "This ... Lippi is going to be replaced by Cai Huikang? Liberating Tang Zheng?"

"At this moment ..." the commentator He Weilang said: "It's finally here!"
