I am the Coach of the National Youth Team

The game continued and both sides had good chances so far.

And it was only a little bit away from scoring.

Although the Japanese team threatened to attack several times, overall, Li Long was quite satisfied.

There is really no way to hold the ball in the midfield. The midfield configuration of the Japanese team is indeed better than that of the Huaxia team.

This puts the Huaxia team at a disadvantage in terms of possession rate. Fortunately, the Huaxia team's defense is not bad.

The Japanese team has been unable to start, but the Huaxia team's several counterattacks have caused the opponent a headache.

When the time came to the 33rd minute, the Japanese team launched an attack.

Konno Yasuyuki passed the football into the penalty area, but Wang Yuan guessed it, and stretched out his foot to touch the football.

After receiving the pass, Lu Lei turned around and looked forward.

The players of the Japanese team were eager to score, so they pressed very forward and all passed halftime.

When Li Mingchao saw this, he was always near the midfield line.

Just waiting for such an opportunity, Li Mingchao pointed at Lu Lei.

Seeing this, Lu Lei sent a long pass with a big foot, and Li Mingchao quickly ran back.

Although Li Mingchao was offside, but because he was in his own half, there was no offside.

The Japanese players were startled when they saw Li Mingchao, and all ran back at full speed.

"Huaxia's counterattack!" Su Dong shouted excitedly.

Li Mingchao's speed is not slow, he also has a speed of 83 points.

Li Mingchao increased his speed to the fastest, and I have to say that Lu Lei's pass was really good.

The football fell right in front of him, Li Mingchao stepped forward with his right foot, and continued to run forward at high speed.

"Beautiful! Lu Lei's long pass was so accurate, he found Li Mingchao precisely!"

Because the pressure was too far forward, Li Mingchao didn't have a defender in front of him.

They were all behind Li Mingchao, desperately chasing after him.

Soon Li Mingchao came outside the opponent's penalty area. At this time, Miura Xianta caught up and pulled Li Mingchao's jersey from behind.

But this time it didn't affect Li Mingchao, and Li Mingchao shot directly.

"Open the door!"

Goalkeeper Junaki Higashiguchi jumped up instantly, trying to knock the football out.

At this time, the Huaxia fans on the sidelines couldn't help standing up, and everyone was very nervous.

But this time Li Mingchao did not disappoint them, the football flew into the goal quickly!

The Huaxia team leads the Japanese team 1-0!

"The goal has been scored! It was Li Mingchao who scored the goal!" Su Dong excitedly celebrated the goal.

"The Huaxia team's counterattack this time is too sharp, it can be said to be a fatal blow!" Li Xin went on to explain excitedly.

"Wow! I didn't expect Li Mingchao to be so fast! I really didn't know his speed was so fast!" Su Dong praised Li Mingchao.

Li Xiaopeng, head coach of Shandong Luneng, was also watching the live broadcast of the game and saw Li Mingchao's goal.

He couldn't help but shine in front of his eyes. He has body and speed, and he has a strong ability to seize opportunities.

This further strengthened the idea of ​​cultivating Li Mingchao and gave him more chances to play.

As a Huaxia fan, I was excited to see that one after another teenagers went to Europe to fight.

But Li Xiaopeng is a head coach, and young players who have studied abroad in Europe are a brain drain in his eyes.

Just like Chi Ruofei, Li Xiaopeng couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he thought that Chi Ruofei came from Shandong Luneng.

If Chi Ruofei is still in Shandong Luneng, then Shandong Luneng's strength will be greatly increased.

Having Chi Ruofei is equivalent to having four foreign players on the field, and full-back Qiu Hailong is also from Shandong Luneng.

This made Li Xiaopeng worry about whether Li Mingchao would play football in Europe in the future.

After scoring the goal, Li Mingchao rushed to the sidelines excitedly, and made a passionate kneeling.

The Huaxia fans who stood up before cheered excitedly.

Sure enough, the Huaxia team did not disappoint them, and they still scored first in this game.

The head coach of the Japanese team, Harry Hodzic, angrily accused the players on the field.

However, in fact, he arranged for the players to press on. In fact, Harry Hodzic is also very responsible for conceding the ball here.

The game continued, and the Japanese team attacked after losing the ball.

Hope to equalize the score as soon as possible, but they are too anxious.

The offense started to be chaotic, and several times it should have passed the ball, but in the end they all hit the goal directly.

Because of the onslaught of the Japanese team, the Huaxia team could only defend passively.

Facing the solid defense of the Huaxia team, the Japanese team has been unable to do anything.

In this way, the first half of the game ended, and the Huaxia team temporarily led the Japanese team 1-0.

When the referee blew his whistle, the Huaxia fans on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief.

The Japanese team's offense was too fierce, which kept them worried.

Fortunately, the Huaxia team made no mistakes in defense and kept the lead until the end of the first half.

"The first half is over! The Huaxia team leads 1-0 temporarily!" Su Dong explained.

"Li Mingchao scored the only goal, and he is the absolute hero for the Huaxia team to take the lead."

"Actually, it's not just Li Mingchao, there are several players who also performed well. Cui Dongzhen is still a thigh-level performance. Of course, there is also Lu Lei who assisted Li Mingchao."

After the two sides returned to the locker room, Li Long praised the players on the court.

"You performed very well in the first half of the game!"

The players all smiled when they heard Li Long's praise.

Because of the team's lead, they are all in a very good mood.

"This time the East Asian Cup is the home court of the Japanese team. They will not be willing to lose, so their offense will be very sharp in the second half of the game."

"So we must pay attention to the defensive end and don't give the opponent any chance."

"They are likely to continue to press, then we will have another chance to continue to fight back."

Hearing Li Long's words, all the players nodded firmly.

The atmosphere in the locker room of the Huaxia team is very good. On the other hand, the locker room of the Japanese team is much more depressed.

The head coach of the Japanese team, Harry Hodzic, kept boosting the morale of the team, and then arranged the tactics for the second half of the game.

The second half of the game started soon, and as Li Long expected, the Japanese team continued to press on.

In the 53rd minute, the Japanese team pressed hard.

Kurata Qiu hoisted the football into the penalty area, but was cleared by Wang Yuan.

The football cleared to Wu Xi, and Wu Xi stopped the ball and started running to the opposite side.

However, he was soon pressed by the opponent, so Wu Xi passed a low mid-range ball to Li Mingchao in front.

But because of the loss in the first half, the Japanese team had a defender behind them to prevent such a counterattack from the Huaxia team.

After Li Mingchao got the ball, there were also players defending him, so he sent the football to the right and sent a through ball.

Cui Dongzhen followed at high speed, and ran forward after catching up with the football.

Soon Cui Dongzhen came to the right side of the opponent's penalty area, and then he passed the football directly to the penalty spot.

Because he saw Li Mingchao following him, and Li Mingchao successfully caught the football.

Li Mingchao didn't make any adjustments, just kicked the door.

Junaki Higashiguchi, the goalkeeper of the Japanese team, was helpless, and the football flew into the goal quickly.
