Midfielder Ruler

Vol 4 Chapter 25: opportunity

Lu Liang and Tang Zheng entered the restricted area during the high-speed running, and it was just right after the rubbing pass. Everyone thought that Lu Liang would choose to directly hit the goal or stop the ball before catching the goal.

No matter how Lu Liang ultimately chooses, Ospina is mentally prepared.

Except for Arias and the far-left left-back Almero's high-speed close to Lu Liang, other defensive players basically subconsciously slowed down.

Because the distance is too far, they are powerless.

Everyone's attention was focused on Lu Liang, who was close to football. The Colombian fans in the stands exclaimed out of instinct: "Oh oh--"

In sharp contrast, the Chinese fans in the stands, their passion was fully released in the moment of Lv Liang's single-handed, creating a huge deafening loud voice, resounding in the sky: "Aoao Aoao-"

However, Lu Liang, who extended his left foot, did not directly hit the goal or stop the ball, but directly used the left foot arch to move the ball to the right rear.

The live guide responded quickly and quickly pulled the camera back to the top of the arc in the Colombian restricted area.

A Chinese player wearing a red jersey appears at the bottom right of the broadcast screen. The large Arabic number ‘10’ behind him tells everyone who he is.

Tang Zheng!

"Aoao Aoao--"

At the same time, the surging Chinese fans became even more crazy, and the hysterical lengthened voice seemed as if the Chinese team had scored a goal.

Yang 5 commentator He Wei even stood up with his hands in support of the commentary and shouted: "Tang Zheng !!!"

Tang Zheng was running unmarked, and goalkeeper Ospina had to retreat into the goal after half of the attack, but Tang Zheng did not give him time.

Tang Zheng lifted his left foot and rubbed towards the bottom of the football. Although the strength was not great, but the distance was short, the shortcomings of Ospina ’s lack of height were particularly evident at this time. He looked up at the football with an obvious parabola in the small penalty area Struggling to take off at the line, stretched out his right arm, trying to use his fingertips to push the football up.

But his height is limited, which affects his wingspan. Ospina's right arm does not touch the football.

All fans of the Pantanal Stadium turned their attention to the slowly falling football until they fell into the net nest.

"Gooooooooooooooooooooal--"

British Sky commentator Andy Gray subconsciously lengthened his voice, so that Martin Taylor looked at him with a daze.

Yang Wei's commentator He Wei kept the momentum and shouted madly: "The ball has entered! The ball has entered! Tang Zheng's non-stop ball in front of the arc of the penalty area hits the goal in the Ospina! Help the Chinese team The score was 1: 2! One goal short of qualifying for the 16th World Cup finals !!! "

At this time, Lippi, who was standing in the command area of ​​the home team's coach, showed very few moments of emotional out-of-control. He shouted and raised his voice.

It is not difficult to see that Tang Zheng's goal released him a lot of pressure.

The Chinese players before the bench didn't let much, rushed from the bench to the sideline, jumped three feet high, vented the emotion released by Tang Zheng's goal.

The same is true for players on the field, but Tang Zheng, who scored a goal, was quite calm at this time.

After confirming that the football was in the net, he bent over and escaped Gao Lin's right arm, ran to the goal, and then bent down from the goal in Ospina's puzzled eyes, picked up the football, and turned to Run back.

Where did teammates who wanted to celebrate the goal with Tang Zheng not know what Tang Zheng meant?

This is ... a ball is not enough!

Although most of the Chinese players on the court do not know the other team, the Greek team leads the defeat of Côte d’ Ivoire 4-0, but Tang Zheng knows, so ... must score another goal!

※※※

The Chinese players who wanted to celebrate the goal saw Tang Zheng running back with his football, so they gave up the years of celebration and chose to run back with Tang Zheng to try to equalize the score!

During the halftime break, the Greek team already led Côte d’ Ivoire by 2: 0. It is hard to say that they will not score again in the second half, so equalizing the score is the most secure promotion opportunity!

The broadcast screen gave Tang Zheng, who was running to the local side holding a football, a close-up shot pushed to the face. The passionate Yang 5 commentator He Wei continued his passion, and the voice changed: "Narrowing the score for the Chinese team It ’s a good thing, but it ’s still a goal difference behind the Greek team. It ’s the right way to tie the score and end the group suspense! Come on! The Chinese team !!! "

At the Castelao stadium, Greek coach Santos learned from the assistant's mouth that the Chinese team had narrowed the score, and he had felt increasing pressure invisible.

----- This is a gorgeous dividing line-

---- This is a gorgeous dividing line ---

In the previous two rounds of the group stage, the team only got a pitiful point, but the rival Chinese team had four points, which means that their promotion must be based on the Chinese team losing to Colombia, and they have to beat Côte d’ Ivoire.

4-0 ahead of Côte d’ Ivoire did it, and it also led the Chinese team with a goal difference, but the Chinese team can win the group's qualifying position in a draw. Now the Chinese team that narrowed the score will definitely boost morale.

Colombia had two consecutive victories in the group and had already qualified in advance.

In addition, the head of Group D is not a traditional strong team, it is Costa Rica representing North America in the World Cup. It is the second group in any group and hopes to meet the first.

From the point of view of the knockout game, Colombia even desperately lost to the Chinese team.

Only under pressure from public opinion, Colombia did not send a large number of benches to meet the team's final round.

The two-ball lead and the advantage of almost the entire game show that Colombia is strong. If the Chinese team has a subtle cooperation and then reverses the game in one fell swoop, the media will not say much.

So Santos is worried that Colombia will "leave water" in the remaining game time, which will lead to its own out.

Of course, Colombian coach Pekerman is thinking of playing Costa Rica in the knockout, but as a well-known coach, he can't make a joke about his reputation.

Hames Rodriguez witnessed Tang Zheng putting the football at the kick-off point of the middle circle, frowning.

He has an inescapable role in losing the ball. If the pass is intercepted by Tang Zheng to fight back, Gualin will not lose his position, and his own active defense does not play any role, so he will be somewhat frustrated. sense.

The game restarted and Colombia, with a kick-off advantage, quickly strengthened the offense under the organization of Hames Rodriguez.

The fanatic atmosphere of the Pantanal Stadium is still the same, the fans of both sides and neutral fans are very tacit, and they persevere to cheer for the players on the court to cheer.

Although Tang Zheng's position is in the midfield, he has a strong sense of responsibility. He did not relax his defensive attitude to the defense because of the change in position. Instead, he actively defended after the kick-off to make up for the lack of defense.

In particular, left-back Jiang Zhipeng has a big problem.

Quadrado has a fast speed, a strong body, and a strong breakthrough ability. Jiang Zhipeng is hard to resist.

Cai Huikang's body is good enough, but the speed is slow, coupled with the impact of Hames Rodriguez, it is difficult to ensure that the defense line is safe enough.

At this time, Tang Zheng actively assisted the defense to make up for the lack of defensive end, and played a role in strengthening the defense.

Lippi is also going to remind Tang Zheng to pay attention to the protection of the defensive end, but now it seems that Tang Zheng's reading ability is better than he thought, so he went back to the coach seat to discuss with the assistant Madaloni the use of the last substitution. .

※※※

In the blink of an eye, the game came to seventy minutes, which means that there were only twenty minutes remaining in the game.

The game at Pantanal Stadium is still that the Chinese team trailed Colombia 1-2, and the game at Castelao Stadium has not changed, or the Greek team leads Côte d’ Ivoire 4-0.

It is worth mentioning that the Greek team that originally wanted to score more goals seemed to encounter strong resistance from Côte d’ Ivoire. Especially with the veteran Drogba coming off the bench, the attack of Côte d’ Ivoire gradually played out, so that the Greek team had to restart. Start your old business.

Defensive counterattack!

Although it was a defensive counterattack, the Greek team did not counterattack in the ten-minute game, and it was even difficult to bring the ball to the Ivorian defense in the 30-meter half.

So the Greek coach Santos is very troubled, and the score in the other field is still Colombian 2-1 leading the Chinese team.

As long as the score is not pulled to two goals, his heart is always hanging in his throat, making it difficult to fall.

If the Chinese team is an ordinary Asian representative team, it's better to say that the problem is that the Chinese team has phenomenal superstar Tang Zheng, who can't be sure that Tang Zheng as a superstar will not score an equalizer goal in the remaining game time. .

In the past 2012-2013 season and 2013-2014 season UEFA Champions League finals, Tang Zheng has fully proved his magic.

Santos was walking back and forth in the command area, and suddenly a huge exclamation sounded over the Castelao stadium: "Oh oh--"

Out of conditioned reflexes, Santos looked up at the stadium.

If you don't look at it, look at it!

Drogba, who came off the bench in the second half, used a strong body to overwhelm central defender Papasta Sopros.

--- This is a gorgeous dividing line ---

----- This is a gorgeous dividing line-

The referee didn't whistle to signal Drogba's foul, and another central defender Manolas had to step up to make up.

Drogba has rich game experience and wide vision. He passed the ball directly to the defensive loophole between Manolas and full-back Manadis when the body turned halfway. The right-winger Gervinho seemed to take off. The Mustang drove the ball into the penalty area while running at high speed, directly facing the goalkeeper Kanezes.

Facing the half-strike goalkeeper Carnegies, Gervinho was very calm. He launched a low shot with his right foot, bypassing the fallen Carnegie's right hand and rubbing into the net along the far end of the goal post. nest.

4: 1! !

Côte d'Ivoire's return to a city also means that Greece's goal difference has returned to '0', which is on the same starting line as the Chinese team currently behind Colombia.

The Greek fans sitting in front of the TV were completely anxious. Now that Ivory Coast scores a goal behind the big score, it will definitely be a great boost, and it is likely to score again in the next game time.

In addition, the Chinese team that narrowed the score will definitely get a great increase in confidence, and it is not impossible to equalize the score!

Gervinho has just helped Côte d'Ivoire to narrow the score. Lippi, who is standing on the left side of the command area of ​​the home team of Pantanal Stadium, has learned the result from his assistant Madaloni, but he has no hope of scoring another goal.

It's not that I don't believe in Côte d'Ivoire's strength, but that the initiative is firmly grasped in my own hands is the king!

So he decided to make substitutions again, striving to score another goal in the remaining game time, to tie the score!

In the 78th minute, the Chinese team requested a substitution to make the final adjustment of the game.

Gao Lin on the 18th, Sun Jingbo on the 22nd.

Gao Lin, who just saw the substitution electronic card, thought he was wrong and looked at the coach seat. As a result, coach Lippi nodded firmly and nodded.

Although Gao Lin was a little dissatisfied, he did not say anything. After all, this game was about whether the national team could stand out in the group and advance to the top 16.

Yang Wei's commentator He Wei said a little about Lippi's substitution: "Sun Jingbo has the ability and potential, but the game experience is lacking, and bench experience is more abundant than his rich players. Gao Lin is indeed easy. He squandered opportunities, but he has balanced abilities and rich experience in the game. Last year he also scored key goals in the AFC Champions League final. "

The commentary guest Xu Yang was more optimistic, he laughed: "Rippi is nicknamed Silver Fox, and replacing Sun Lin with Gao Jingbo certainly has his ideas, and Sun Jingbo's technology is more delicate, after all, from La Masia, the speed is fast, maybe Will bring a different change to the offense. "

As soon as the words fell, right-back Zhang Linpeng threw the ball to Sun Jingbo who turned around to receive the ball. The latter took the initiative to catch the ball forward. The Colombian defensive player who had not yet had time to divide the division chose to defend in principle. Go up.

However, Sun Jingbo was an illusion. He stopped at the spot when Quadrado kept up, gave the ball and turned around to start.

Quadrado is not a professional defensive player after all, and he lacks defensive awareness. It is too late when he realizes that he should pull Sun Jingbo down.

Sun Jingbo has just played, he has plenty of energy, and he directly takes the ball forward.

Facing Gualin's frontal defense, Sun Jingbo did not continue to choose to break through, but handed the ball to Tang Zheng with his right foot.

Hames Rodriguez ran without hesitation, but Tang Zheng didn't mean to take the ball. The right foot arch kept pushing the ball without stopping, and gave Lu Liang attacking the left rib.

Gu Lin originally wanted to turn around and continue to follow the forward Sun Jingbo, but Lu Liang diagonally defended the right rib and had to defend.

However, Lu Liang also had no dribbling and kicked the ball towards Gu Lin's original seat.

Gualin quickly braked on the spot, turned right with the right foot as the axis, and faced the goal in front.

Sun Jingbo didn't hit the ball again, because there was no response point in the frontcourt, he directly used the right foot arch to move the ball forward and accelerate.

Gu Lin, who had completed the turn, realized that Sun Jingbo was a very dangerous thing to face the double central defender, so his body weight was sinking, his left foot was kicking the ground, and his right foot was shoveling out.

Sun Jingbo's game experience can't be compared with Tang Zheng, he can't be compared with Gu Lin, he was kicked to the ground.

The referee Kaushao decisively blew his whistle and also gave the fouled Gualin a yellow card.

British Sky commentator Andy Gray saw the foul spot given by the broadcaster and suddenly said: "Freddie Guarlin's foul spot is close to the middle of the road and is thirty-two meters from the goal. Maybe ... it is a thing for Tang opportunity!"
