Chapter 137 The champion who is eight years late
Instead of replacing Dazhi, Sforza replaced Mei Xiaoxi.
Since ancient times, the unnamed game of the final has lasted for more than 70 minutes. With only one goal leading 3:2, we have to be cautious about the championship. Zhuo Yang and Yang Yichen retreated to the midfield to increase the thickness of the formation.
Exon was replaced, and Li Ju and Li Ju were positioned one behind the other on the front line. Exon was the one in front, and his smoothness and catching ability would be effective in the last ten minutes.
Others may only regard this as a normal tactical adjustment, but Dazhi, who has been playing golf for thirty years, knows in his heart: This is all caused by himself.
In order to prevent Zhuoyang from being too tired and injured after fatigue, the national team made it clear after the World Cup that he should retreat as little as possible in the midfield to participate in defense. In this Asian Cup, the only time Zhuoyang had withdrawn from the midfielder once before was against Iran. The cannon defender made consecutive mistakes and forced him.
At this moment, Dazhi's shame and regret are as big as the Persian Gulf.
But it has to be said that the tactical effect of Zhuoyang's retreat was too obvious. He and Yang Yichen directly separated the connection line of Qatar's midfield. If they want to play as high-end offense as before, the difficulty increases by three or four orders of magnitude.
After all, Asian Spain is not European ancestral Spain.
As time goes by, as long as they don't want to be a salty fish, Qatar, which is one goal behind, must fight hard for that ethereal trophy. Sanchez replaced Egypt's right winger Ahmed Alardin and Algeria's attacking midfielder Sa Lem Hajiri.
As time passed, Dazhi's international football career finally reached the end. In the 82nd minute, No. 21 Pang Tiezhu stood on the sidelines, and the display board showed No. 21 up and No. 10 down.
It was agreed before the game that Dazhi would be replaced after eighty minutes, allowing him a time to accept the farewell from the fans alone and say goodbye to the fans alone. There were many difficulties, but Sforza was a kind person and he strictly kept his promise.
Zayed Stadium can seat 45,000 people. Today, there are about 5,000 China Expedition fans and Chinese people working locally in the stands. They all know that this is the farewell game of the ambitious national team. At this time, they collectively stood up, applauded and shouted for him. name.
Chinese fans are very kind. When they hate, they can talk about killing their ancestors for eighteen generations, but when they love, they don’t care about past grudges at all. People who use traffic to maliciously entertain Chinese football are not fans. They are just chasing hot dogs all over the ground, and they are still Chuaner.
He Wei, a famous commentator known as the "Football Poet", once said: Even if Chinese football becomes everyone's spittoon, it is still the Holy Grail in my heart.
.
Dazhi breathed a complete sigh of relief, feeling relieved: finally he no longer had to drag down the national team or Team Zhuo anymore.
As long as the ball is dead, including the National Olympics, the ambition of the Chinese team veteran whose national football career lasted for 20 years will end his story.
The players on the field naturally know best what today means to the oldest veteran of the national football team, but Maro, who took the ball on the wing, did not kick the football out of the field in a timely manner, because the Chinese team got a very good counterattack opportunity, and he was reluctant to let it go.
The opportunity came from Afef who was wandering to the right and tried to break through, but was caught by Li Ju, Yang Yibai, and Maro. What else could he leave behind?
After stealing the ball, Maro advanced quickly. The best right back in the World Cup was a breeze.
Qatar's defense retreated very quickly. After arriving in the frontcourt, Maro quickly dunked across the penalty area. Exon in the middle also twisted his ankle and spiked the ball with the outside of his instep, avoiding Salman's interception, and then pushed flatly and the other side just followed up. Li Ju.
With Hassan at his side, Li Ju did not shoot hard, but stepped on his heel and knocked the football back to the center.
Zhuoyang arrived in a moment and dribbled the ball into the hinterland of the penalty area. The goal was about to be scored. Bodiaf, who had been chasing him with stars in his eyes, couldn't care so much and grabbed Zhuoyang's arm from behind. Everyone rolled up.
‘Hey~’ He opened his eyes and saw that he could not reach the ball. Zhuoyang was dragged down by Bodiaf.
The evidence is complete and the facts are clear, and there is nothing to be pretentious about. In the 83rd minute, the Qatar Red Dot Package, the Chinese team’s championship was guaranteed.
Irmatov signaled the Chinese team to make substitutions first, but Zhuo Yang held Dazhi back.
"Dazhi, you take the penalty kick."
"...Zhuo Dui, you don't want a hat trick?"
"What do I still need?" Tanichui
"Hehe, that's true. But...is it appropriate?"
"Hurry up, like a man."
Zhuoyang signaled to the sidelines to wait and explained to Irmatov for a moment. Dazhi walked to the white spot holding the football.
Full of emotion and anxiety, Dazhi took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and thought about his 20 years as a national footballer for a thousand years. After all, he is a coffin veteran who has experienced great storms, a veteran of three World Cup dynasties, and the most invincible own goal assist in the history of Chinese football. The maker is the person with the best psychological quality of native cannon. After opening his eyes, his ambition is clear.
A decent push shot in pursuit of speed, even a half-lob, but Shurby gambled in the wrong direction.
4:2, Dazhi ended with a goal that sealed the Asian Cup championship.
It was really time to end. Zhuoyang and his teammates hugged Dazhi one by one. Pass and shot, the farewell game was perfect, even more perfect than the perfection Dazhi imagined last night.
"Captain, thank you."
"Um."
Dazhi walked towards the sidelines step by step, with a spring breeze and a smile on his face.
During his 20-year international football career, he was a witness to the reversal of Chinese football from the dark era to the glorious era, and a witness to the Zhuo Yang era.
Dazhi is also a representative figure in this great era that connects the past and the future. His departure represents the complete end of the old generation of Chinese football, and represents the new generation of football that is more full of hope and has occupied the front stage.
Dazhi is also the leader of the local cannon players. His recklessness and wit, his clumsiness and diligence, his willingness to have more than enough and not giving up, are all the epitome of Chinese football in the old era.
Step by step, down-to-earth, ambitions move slowly.
Suddenly, he opened his mouth and cried. He, who was always loud and ugly, became extremely ugly when he cried. He cried so much that he could hardly stand on the sidelines.
Dazhi grabbed the front of the jersey and kissed the national flag on it, kissing it with all his strength.
Burying his head in the arms of Pang Tiezhu who was waiting for him, Dazhi cried and murmured: Tiezhu, come on.
"Captain——, come on——"
“Team China——, come on————”
In the rain of tears, my ambition was broken.
.
‘Beep-beep——’
In the 903rd minute, the game ended. The Chinese team defeated Qatar 4:2 and won the first Asian Cup championship in team history.
As everyone expected, opponents including the Chinese team had no objections to the ownership of the championship and were convinced. Zhuo Yangchu has been here for ten years and if there is no national team championship again, it is not only outrageous, but also shows that the Asian Cup is fake.
This is a trophy eight years overdue.
With Zhuo Yang successfully winning his first national team championship, the Asian Cup has also become the most successful event in history. The ratings and global attention have increased step by step, far exceeding the past. The championship bonus alone is as high as 18 million US dollars.
Second only to the World Cup and European Cup.
