Super Marshal

If there are no accidents, this should be Feng Xiaoting's last time competing in the World Cup.

He was very aware of this from the beginning.

He admires Zheng Zhi very much, but it is difficult to guarantee that he can play to the age of Zheng Zhi. A player's career is always full of various force majeure factors. Sometimes even he himself cannot be sure of it, but it is precisely because That's why he tries his best in every game, and he hopes he can leave no regrets in his career.

Unexpectedly, the experience of the top 40 competition gave him a wake-up call.

Under the leadership of Perrin, the national team's performance was sluggish. In the key point-grabbing battles, instead of failing to win against the underdogs, they repeatedly lost points and missed excellent opportunities to qualify. Even in the end, the national team was dissatisfied. I have completely lost my confidence and my heart is extremely disorganized.

At that time, Feng Xiaoting also felt that his career was probably going to be like this. He was afraid that he would have to bear the blame for the national team for the rest of his life, and he would not be able to wash away it until he retired.

Outsiders simply could not understand the mood of the international players at that time, as well as the uneasy mood within the team. Coupled with the pressure accumulated over the years, the international players who did not have much advantage in their own strength were overwhelmed.

Just when everyone was almost in despair and all the head coaches were staying away from the national team coaching position, Gao Han took the initiative to extend an olive branch. As the legendary coach with the best performance in the world, Gao Han resolutely bet on his life. Honor and disgrace, he took over the coaching position of the national team.

This caused an uproar within the national team at the time, and everyone wondered if they had heard wrongly.

It wasn't until Gao Han appeared in front of them alive that the international players began to believe that this thing they never dared to dream of actually happened, and they all began to admire and be grateful to Gao Han for daring to take over this mess. .

After taking office, Gao Han carried out drastic reforms, not only eradicating many stubborn problems in the national team, but also bravely standing in the limelight outside, transferring all the pressure of public opinion to himself. The most typical example was the recent game against Syria. Previously, he accused the media in person of inciting public opinion.

Reasoning with media reporters?

This is probably something that no rational person would want to do, but Gao Han did it anyway. Why?

He just wanted to change the subject and draw everyone's attention away from the national team.

Sure enough, soon, news broke out about Gao Han using his power to secretly help Chinatown embezzle national assets. This was revenge from the media, but Gao Han withstood the pressure alone and still led the team to train in an orderly manner every day.

According to the coaching staff, the media's fighting power is far behind compared to Europe.

Obviously, Gao Han did this kind of thing when he was coaching in European football.

It's hard to know from the outside how grateful and respectful the national players are to Gao Han.

No one was surprised that he was able to lead the team to advance from the top 40, because at that time many people felt that even if Perrin stayed, the possibility of qualifying was still high, but he could defeat South Korea and Iran and win two consecutive games. Only then did Gao Han completely conquer the national team and make them believe that he has the ability to lead the team to victory.

But it wasn't until the game against Syria that Gao Han truly received the respect of all the international players.

He is a real man!

In the national team, anyone is willing to play for him, even if it is just a few minutes as a substitute, everyone will try their best.

Everyone who plays football has blood in their bones. If even a head coach like Gao Han refuses to give his best to play for him, then everyone will look down on him.

Feng Xiaoting is naturally no exception, and he even feels it even more deeply, because he not only plays for Gao Han, but also plays for himself.

Only by cooperating with Gao Han and doing his best to help the national team rush into the World Cup can he wash away the blame he has carried for more than ten years, and can he bravely tell everyone that as a national player, he finally helped the Chinese team rush into the World Cup.

Although many people ridicule him as a joker of the national team, in fact, he also has his own persistence and perseverance.

Therefore, when the opportunity arose, even if he played the whole game and was exhausted, Feng Xiaoting gritted his teeth and strode forward with the ball. He didn't know if this would be the last chance of the game.

He didn't even know what he would miss if he missed this opportunity.

He couldn't afford to gamble anymore. Even if his leg was broken, he would attack this time.

…………

…………

"There was an oversight in Uzbekistan's defense, and no one immediately stepped forward to grab Feng Xiaoting."

"Feng Xiaoting rushed forward with the ball by himself, very fast."

"Uzbekistan's defense is retreating rapidly. We see that the two centers in the frontcourt are close to the opponent's defense and advancing rapidly. Zhang Yuning and Gao Lin are the two offensive high points in the frontcourt. Look at Feng Xiaoting. How will it be handled this time?"

"From the right, he passed the ball directly to the right."

"Zhang Yuning pulled to the right. The opponent's left back Denisov just pressed up to attack, and there was a gap on the right."

"Seizing the first spot, Zhang Yuning headed the ball back."

"Gao Lin received the ball, took it to the center, got rid of the defensive player, and passed the ball into the penalty area..."

"The Chinese team has a chance..."

"Wu Lei, who was defending in his own half just now, stepped in..."

"Wu Lei caught up with the ball..."

“The ball went in!!!!”

"In the 83rd minute, the Chinese team finally took advantage of a counterattack opportunity and knocked on the Uzbekistan team's goal. Gao Lin assisted Wu Lei and scored the only goal in the game so far. .”

"What a brilliant comeback!"

"The Chinese team finally broke the deadlock on the court!"

…

After Wu Lei scored a goal alone, he was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium quickly and ran all the way to the stands where the Chinese fans who came to the away game were standing. He performed a beautiful kneeling slide directly to the bottom of the stands.

Behind him, the international players rushed up quickly and surrounded him one by one. Even Yu Hanchao, who had just run out to warm up, rushed over and hugged him. Everyone was forgetting everything and reveling.

…

"Eighty-three minutes have passed. The Chinese team repeatedly missed scoring opportunities in the first half, and then struggled to hold on until the 83rd minute. Now they finally found an opportunity, and Wu Lei finally grasped this rare single-handed goal."

"Looking back at the entire scoring process, Uzbekistan made mistakes that it shouldn't have made. There was no one around Feng Xiaoting to defend him. He dribbled the ball forward and moved his big foot to the frontcourt."

"Zhang Yuning is worthy of being the number one center of the national team trusted by Gao Han. Although he missed a single goal in the first half, this time he calmly pulled to the right, grabbed the first goal, and headed the ball back to Gao Lin."

"After Gao Lin got rid of the defensive player, he sent a very wonderful cross pass to Wu Lei, which helped Wu Lei directly form a single shot."

"But the most surprising thing is Wu Lei. Just now he was participating in the midfield defense in his own half. But who would have thought that the game has already gone on for 83 minutes, but he can still do it so quickly. With his speed, he directly shook off the chasing defensive player and seized this one-on-one opportunity."

"On this point, we have to admit that Wu Lei is indeed the sharpest knife among domestic forwards."

…………

…………

Gao Han couldn't help but jump up from the ground the moment he saw Wu Lei score.

So excited! It’s so refreshing!

He miscalculated, because he originally thought that the opportunity would not come so early. He originally had some doubts about whether the international players could grasp it, but in the end, all of this surprised him.

But he was ecstatic about his miscalculation, and he even wished that there would be more miscalculations like this. This at least meant that the national players were working hard and the national team's strength was improving.

Behind him, Xiao Mu and the coaching staff were also cheering excitedly.

The goal at this time almost means that the Chinese team has grabbed three points with one hand. The start of the four-game winning streak is absolutely a dream for the Chinese team, and it is definitely something that no one can believe. This will bring Gao Han's reputation to an unprecedented height.

Who would have thought that half a year ago, this team, which was beaten by a weak team in the top 40, would tenaciously defend Uzbekistan's strong attack in the away game half a year later, and use an opportunity to score a fatal Fight back?

The players are basically the same group of players, but their competitiveness is completely different.

This is the effect of high cold!

But Gao Han quickly calmed down, and he quickly shouted to the national players celebrating on the sidelines, asking them to come closer.

"We must be calm at this time. Uzbekistan will definitely counterattack wildly. We must do our best to stabilize the position, just like our previous defense, understand?" Gao Han shouted forcefully.

The national players shouted in unison, "Got it!"

Soon, Gao Han called Yu Hanchao over again and apologized to him, saying that he really couldn't make substitutions at this time. The latter could also understand Gao Han's arrangement and said that as long as the national team could win, he would be at Gao Han's disposal at any time. arrange.

…………

…………

After the game restarted, Uzbekistan, which was one goal behind, launched a crazy offensive.

They have already lost to the Iranian team in their last home game. If they lose to the Chinese team again at this home court, their strategy of grabbing points at home will fail. This is definitely an unacceptable outcome for Uzbekistan.

Babayan quickly made the last substitution and brought on a forward, obviously to further strengthen the offensive attack in the frontcourt.

However, the Chinese team also obeyed Gao Han's arrangements, and the whole team retreated. In addition, Gao Han directly used confrontation cards and defensive cards to create a combination of iron walls and steel walls, strengthening the team's defense in the midfield and backcourt. Uzbekistan was not given the slightest chance.

The game time passed minute by minute, and Uzbekistan seemed to have the upper hand, but it never found an opportunity to effectively send the ball into the penalty area, let alone create a threat.

Even after the 88th minute, even Uzbekistan's goalkeeper boldly crossed the center line. The whole team showed their determination to fight against the odds and not give up until the Chinese team's goal was captured.

The referee gave a decision of five minutes of additional time, which undoubtedly gave Uzbekistan new hope.

Gao Han also made a substitution immediately after the stoppage time, replacing Zhang Yuning, who was exhausted, and replaced him with Yu Hanchao, pulling Gao Lin back to the middle, and Yu Hanchao went up to play on the right.

At the same time, Gao Han also used the remaining four skill cards, hoping to use a threatening counterattack to force Uzbekistan to slow down its offensive. In fact, the Chinese team also followed up with a very threatening long-range shot.

Because the opponent's goalkeeper pressed too high, Gao Lin had a chance to shoot an empty goal from a long distance, but unfortunately, it slightly missed the post.

After this shot, Uzbekistan was also deflated.

In the end, with Wu Lei's single goal, the Chinese team defeated Uzbekistan 0-1 in the away game and won its fourth consecutive victory in the top 12.
