The midfield configuration of the Croatian team is indeed high, occupying more possessions of the ball.

This made the Huaxia team, which was in desperate need of scoring, even more anxious.

We've reached this point, and of course everyone doesn't want to just go home like this.

Several attacks by the Huaxia team were not very successful.

After pressing the opponent's half, but there is no good point of exit.

Afterwards, the Huaxia team got a corner kick, and Wei Jiafeng was responsible for taking the corner kick.

Logically speaking, this is the Huaxia team's advantage, and the Huaxia team is capable of high-altitude balls.

But it was cleared by Lovren's header. This is not the first corner kick.

Several corner kicks were very mediocre, which gave Lippi a headache.

Lippi is thinking about whether to make a substitution and adjust, and replace with striker Cai Jian.

But after thinking about it, Lippi still didn't make a premature substitution.

Although the Huaxia team can't play offensively, the Croatian team's offense is still threatening.

When the time came to the 11th minute, right back Vrsaljko stepped in.

After receiving the pass and crossing it, Modric is running towards the penalty area.

Chi Ruofei hurriedly defended and stretched his legs to knock the football out.

But his outstretched leg tripped Modric, and the referee blew his whistle immediately.

"Oh! The referee has blown his whistle!" Hong Gang said anxiously.

Hong Gang was uneasy because Modric fell to the ground near the penalty area line.

And now that he is lying in the penalty area, Hong Gang is worried that the referee will award a penalty kick.

The referee did not award a penalty, but gave the Croatian team a set kick.

The players of the Croatian team were very dissatisfied. They thought it should be a penalty.

All surrounded them, and the Huaxia players also stepped forward.

The players on both sides talked to each other, which made the referee very headache.

The referee first took two steps back, and then made a gesture to keep the players away from him. He needed to listen to the video assistant referee's opinion.

After communication, the referee decided to go and see VAR in person.

All Huaxia fans became uneasy at this moment.

However, Chi Ruofei, as the person involved, must have known about it.

Firmly told his teammates that Modric fell to the ground outside the penalty area.

The referee only watched it a few times before returning to the court firmly.

As Chi Ruofei said, this is not a penalty.

Although it was only a little bit short, Modric fell to the ground outside the penalty area.

"Fortunately! The referee did not award a penalty kick." Hong Gang breathed a sigh of relief.

You must know that the game has only passed more than 10 minutes, if you give the opponent a penalty at this time.

Then this game was really suspended, and Modric came to the penalty spot.

The penalty spot is on the right side of the penalty area line, which is actually not a good position.

Yan Junling commanded the human wall earnestly, and the fans on both sides stood up.

Although no penalty kick was given, the set kick at this distance is still extremely threatening.

And Modric also stood in front of the penalty spot, Modric did not choose a tactical free kick.

Directly choose to hit the goal, a set ball at this distance.

Modric did not choose to play a curve ball, but hit the goal directly and vigorously.

Fortunately, the Huaxia team's human wall was well arranged. The football hit Chi Ruofei's body and then popped out of bounds.

The Croatian team won a corner kick, and the Croatian team has a strong air defense capability.

And the Huaxia team's air defense ability is not weak, Zhao Wenchao cleared the football.

This time the attack was not successful, but it made the Huaxia fans break out in a cold sweat.

The game continued, and the Croatian team still had the advantage.

In the 23rd minute, the Huaxia team got another corner kick.

The Huaxia team also knew that the opponent's defense in the penalty area was stable, so this time the Huaxia team chose a tactical corner kick.

Chi Ruofei handed the football to Bai Yi who came over, and Bai Yi took the ball and faced Vrsaliko's defense.

Bai Yi passed the football to the top of the arc outside the penalty area because he saw Wei Jiafeng.

After Wei Jiafeng received the pass, he made some adjustments and directly took a long shot.

The football flew to the upper left corner of the goal. Although the ball didn't have any arc, it was very fast.

Goalkeeper Subasic flew to save!

His fingertips actually touched the football, and the football changed direction slightly.

Then there was only a "dang" sound, and the football hit the post hard.

"Wow! Wei Jiafeng's long shot hit the post!" Hong Gang explained regretfully.

"This ball is really a pity!"

"Let's watch the slow-motion replay, ah! Goalkeeper Subasic's fingertips touched the football, and then hit the post."

"Today's Huaxia team is really not very lucky. Although there are not many offensive opportunities, there are still very threatening shots, but they are only a little short of scoring goals."

Seeing that the ball hit the post, the Huaxia fans at the scene sighed regretfully.

This ball is really far from the goal, and it is a little bit worse.

The Croatian fans breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to cheer for the team.

They hope that the team can concentrate and not let the Huaxia team get such an opportunity again.

The head coach of the Croatian team, Zlatko Dalic, angrily accused the players on the field from the sidelines.

Wei Jiafeng was actually given such an opportunity, that is, the goalkeeper played steadily.

A little carelessness, it is very likely that the Huaxia team will equalize the score.

And Lippi was on the sidelines, applauding and encouraging the court.

Although the ball was not scored, at least there is still a chance.

A few minutes later, the Huaxia team controlled the ball.

Because the team is behind, the overall pressure is relatively high.

Chi Ruofei took the ball near the penalty area line and slowly pushed forward.

Then a mid-range pass sent the football upfield.

Chi Ruofei's pass is not small, so the ball speed is also very fast.

Liu Yuchang received the pass from outside the penalty area with his back to the opponent's penalty area line.

Liu Yuchang didn't choose to turn around, but knocked Wei Jiafeng in front of him.

But Wei Jiafeng didn't choose to stop the ball, and kicked directly towards the passing football.

The football was kicked into the penalty area by Wei Jiafeng, and Tian Runtao had already started running.

After crossing into the penalty area, he received a pass from Wei Jiafeng.

Wei Da followed Tian Runtao the whole time, and Tian Runtao took a step ahead.

Then he directly chose to hit the door!

In fact, Tian Runtao's chance to hit the goal is not good, because the position of his goal is 45 degrees to the right outside the small penalty area.

Although there is a shooting angle, it is because of Vader's existence.

There are many shooting angles, and Tian Runtao hits the goal with his right foot, so his posture is a little different.

Vader, however, did not touch the football, which flew towards the goal.

It's a pity that goalkeeper Subasic was too decisive. When he saw Tian Runtao receiving the ball, he chose to attack.

Subasic fell directly to the ground, and his right calf actually touched the football.

Touch the football out of the bottom line!
