Chapter 367 Feeding and Spitting Cakes

When interviewed by reporters, Fu Bo, the head coach of the Chinese team, repeatedly emphasized that the national team will go all out to treat this game. Don't think that Saudi Arabia will release water if it has already qualified ahead of schedule.

Judging from the team's training content, Fu Bo also does what he says-the training intensity of the national team is very high. On the first day of training after the game, the main players who participated in the game against Indonesia got a day off, while the substitute players all went to the training ground for high-intensity training.

On November 19, the Chinese team ushered in Saudi Arabia at home.

The Shaanxi Provincial Stadium, which can accommodate 50,000 people, was full of seats. Before the start of the game, the red flag was waving, and the crowd was full of voices.

Fans from all over the country came to witness the Chinese team qualifying for the Asian Cup.

After losing the right to participate in the World Cup, the Asian Cup has become the only consolation for Chinese fans.

In this game, judging from Saudi Arabia's starting lineup, it is indeed as their head coach Juan Carlo said. Although the team has already qualified ahead of schedule, it does not intend to release water and will not underestimate the enemy.

This starting lineup is the main lineup of Saudi Arabia. Before the big Iraq, it was used by the Chinese team.

Naturally, the Chinese team also has a full main lineup.

As the center forward, Gao Zheng was at the forefront.

At the beginning of the game, amidst the cheers of the home fans, the Chinese team launched a fierce offensive towards the goal of Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia defended solidly to avoid conceding the ball first.

It has to be said that since Gao Zheng participated in the national team competition, Saudi Arabia is indeed his strongest opponent at the national team level. The strength is not at the same level as Indonesia played in the previous two games.

The offensive is also fierce, and it will be difficult for the Chinese team to easily break through Saudi Arabia's goal.

Gao Zheng was also closely marked by two Saudi Arabian players during the game.

Thirty-one minutes into the first half, he had a great chance.

At that time, Zheng Zhi, the captain of the Chinese team, made a long pass in the midfield. Gao Zheng's clever forward move caught Saudi Arabia's defense by surprise and broke Saudi Arabia's offside trap.

But when Gao Zheng stopped the football with his chest,

Then when he dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he was shoveled out of the baseline by the Saudi Arabian player Farath who returned to the defense at high speed.

This was the best offensive opportunity for the Chinese team in the first half.

Gao Zheng was also very annoyed and regretted that he missed this opportunity.

Although it is said that this game can qualify for a tie, countless previous experience and lessons told him that this is the most dangerous situation. Most of the time when a tie can qualify, the Chinese team lost in the end.

If you want to ensure that "a tie can qualify", the best way is for the Chinese team to take the lead, even if it is only a one-goal lead. In this way, even if the ball is lost in the next defense, it will be a 1:1 tie. Accept that the mentality of the players will be completely different from being behind 0:1.

The Chinese team failed to break the deadlock, and Saudi Arabia also had several opportunities to counterattack, but they also failed to seize it.

The first half ended 0:0.

This score made the Chinese fans a little worried-worried that the Chinese team will be weak in succession, will be scored by Saudi Arabia, and then become impatient, lose patience, and eventually collapse...

This kind of experience has happened too many times in the Chinese team in the past, and almost every fan of the Chinese team can be said to be a "prophet" in this regard.

During the intermission, Fu Bo made adjustments to Gao Zheng being restricted by the opponent, using Gao Zheng to attract the opponent's defensive force and create opportunities for other teammates. In other words, Gao Zheng feinted and the others attacked.

There is nothing wrong with this tactical adjustment in theory—since Saudi Arabia has used more defensive forces to defend Gao Zheng, it will naturally relax its defense against other Chinese players. Opportunity.

Although this would sacrifice Gao Zheng's chance to score, Gao Zheng himself did not object to this arrangement.

After the start of the second half, the Chinese team played strictly according to the tactics of head coach Fu Bo, but the effect was not very good.

Gao Zheng did attract Saudi Arabia's defensive attention. He was often surrounded by two Saudi Arabian players, and occasionally three or four defensive players surrounded him.

The defensive pressure of other Chinese team players is indeed much less.

But when Gao Zheng passed the football to them, they couldn't send the football into the goal, or threaten the goal of Saudi Arabia...

That's embarrassing.

In Sampdoria, when coach Di Francesco used this trick, he could often cause trouble for the opponent's goal.

However, there is still a big gap between the personal abilities of the Chinese players and the personal abilities of the Sampdoria players.

The personal ability of this Chinese team is not top-notch in Europe, not even in Asia. Except for a very few individuals who have the ability to compete, everyone else has no chance.

So although Gao Zheng helped his teammates attract the opponent's defensive force, his teammates were not strong enough, so there was nothing wrong with it.

For example, before Gao Zheng made his debut again, Wu Lei, who was known as a top talent in China, was fast and strong off the ball. Catch the ball.

But it's just a touch of the door is really bad...

Two chances for one-on-one goals. When facing the Saudi Arabian goalkeeper one-on-one, he flew one kick and hit the goalkeeper...

"Wu Lei! Wu Lei!" commentator Duan Xin sighed. "This is his second single-handed goal in this game! The Chinese team missed another chance to score!"

The Chinese fans on the field and in front of the TV were also watching anxiously-so many opportunities were wasted, but they will be punished!

If the Chinese team can't score a goal for a long time, the momentum will go down, and after the pressure on Saudi Arabia is low, what can we do if we let Saudi Arabia score a goal?

There are already Chinese fans on the Internet scolding Wu Lei for not living up to expectations.

※※※

Gao Zheng doesn't mind giving assists to his teammates. When he played against Indonesia last time, he scored a hat-trick of assists, which shows that he is not the kind of person who eats alone.

But seeing his side keep feeding cakes, while his teammates keep doing all kinds of "don't eat cheap food", he is also very embarrassed.

He looked up at the big screen and found that the game had reached the sixty-fifth minute, and there were still twenty-five minutes before the end of the game.

When Gao Zheng took the ball again, there were three Saudi Arabian defenders in front of him.

Wu Lei cuts inside, and his running position is very good, which makes Gao Zheng also very emotional-Wu Lei's running position is put in Europe, which Gao Zheng has seen is very good. But the feeling of shooting is too far from his running position.

Although he had such emotion, Gao Zheng still passed the football - he ran to a good position, why didn't he pass it? Don't pass the ball because the first two feet are not good? It would be too selfish to do so.

Only this time, after Gao Zheng passed the ball, he didn't stand still, but also moved towards the penalty area.

Wu Lei could have shot directly after receiving the ball, but his left foot swung up, but it was just a feint.

But his fake action did not deceive the Saudi Arabian defenders, but instead made him lose the best opportunity to kick the ball.

When he landed with his left foot, there was no room to shoot and it was difficult to think of the foot again.

Under such circumstances, a calm and experienced striker will find a way to protect the football, then pass it out, and reorganize the attack.

But Wu Lei chose to force the kick.

The football bounced off of Saudi Arabian defender Osama Hausavi who was defending him.

Just when the Chinese fans in the stands were sighing again for Wu Lei wasting his chance, a red figure suddenly appeared near the landing point of the football, and swung his right foot towards the football!

"Gao Zheng!!" Duan Xin exclaimed.

Gao Zheng didn't give the Saudi Arabian players a chance to react, so he swung his foot and shot, a clean volley!

The football flew between the two Saudi Arabian defenders like a shell, passed the palm of goalkeeper Waleed Abdullah, and hit the net with its head!

"The goal has been scored!!! In the 67th minute, the Chinese team finally broke the deadlock! Gao Zheng! He opened the scoring for the team!!" If its content violates national laws, please delete it. Our position is only committed to providing a healthy and green reading platform.
