Chapter 1070 World Top Eight
As time goes by, the US team is also willing to do its best. The whole team is pressing forward and launching a tide of attacks on the Chinese team.
This time, the Chinese team did not make the mistakes that the Chinese team often made again. They were not conservative after leading. They also pushed them out from time to time to attack the US team, making the American defender frightened and dared not assist with all their strength.
In the 80th minute of the game, the Chinese team suddenly launched a fierce attack. Huang Bo passed the ball in the midfield, Chen Yu**** stopped the ball, two players in the US midfielder defended, Bokaneg stretched out his hand to pull, and the other ball was tackled, but it may be because the teammates were all defending, and the two defenses were a little less. Chen Yu was neither tackled nor pulled down. He held the ground with his hand and staggered into the left rib of the penalty area. Facing the attacking goalkeeper Howard shot with his left foot from 12 yards, the ball flew into the goal from Howard's feet, and the Chinese team led the United States 2-0.
This is Chen Yu's fifth World Cup goal. With this goal, Chen Yu continues to lead the scorer list. Since the number of goals scored in recent World Cups has not exceeded 6 goals, Chen Yu is very likely to win the Golden Boot of this World Cup.
This was a goal that locked the victory. After the ball entered, all Chinese fans jumped up and shouted about victory. The Chinese players rushed towards Chen Yu frantically and threw him on the grass and folded the Luohan.
When the US team conceded a goal first, former US President Clinton in the stands sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, with a relaxed expression and chatting with friends around him. When Chen Yu scored another goal, Clinton looked solemn and seemed to be discussing the US team's conceded goals with others, and seemed not very satisfied with the US team's defense.
Several football league chairmen in the VIP box were applauding, but only FIFA president Blatt and AFC president Haman laughed the happiestly, while others smiled politely.
With ten minutes left, the US team was two goals behind. The American players were anxious. They launched the most violent attack since the start of the game, trying to save the defeat.
After scoring the second goal, the Chinese team's spirit unconsciously relaxed. In addition, the physical consumption was too high, and the defense intensity naturally came down, giving the American team a lot of shooting opportunities. There were two shots in the small penalty area, but the American players were obviously impatient and could not grasp the opportunity, which made the American fans in the stands screaming in an anxious voice, wishing they could go up and kick themselves.
In the 88th minute of the game, the American midfielders simply stopped passing. Dempsey used his speed to forcefully pass Du Wei and broke into the penalty area. **** did not hesitate to put a shovel behind him and knocked Dempsey to the ground.
The referee did not hesitate to award a penalty and showed a red card to send **** out of the field.
The American team took the penalty kick and Donovan was their core player. Donovan easily tricked Zeng Lei into the penalty kick, and the score became 1-2, and the Chinese team was still ahead.
A minute has passed now, the score gap is only one goal, but the Chinese team was sent off. The Americans saw hope again, and the American fans in the stands sang the national anthem loudly to inspire American players to defend and make their last try.
The American team players were also excited when they saw the fire of hope. Only one goalkeeper was left behind, and the others were all pressed to the Chinese team's half and besieged the Chinese team's penalty area.
The fourth official on the sidelines raised the stoppage time sign. Five minutes, which made the Chinese coach and substitutes very dissatisfied. They thought that three minutes would be enough, five minutes would be too much, but complaining was useless, and the stoppage time could not be changed.
The situation of the Chinese team is very tense. Many Chinese fans can't help but think of the often happening black three minutes at this time. It is definitely not a delusion to score another goal in the last five minutes with the momentum of the American team.
In order to disrupt the rhythm and momentum of the US team, the Chinese team replaced the players again at this time, defending the midfielder Liu Jian replaced Qu Bo, and the Chinese team was determined to defend until the end.
Although Qu Bo is known as the Feng-chasing boy, he also understands the coach's intention at this time. He is slow when he leaves the court, like an 80-year-old lady, so that the American team players run over and push him hard, making him walk faster.
Before Qu Bo could react, Chen Yu came over immediately, as if he wanted to protect Qu Bo, and pushed the American team players back.
At this time, other players of the Chinese team also understood Chen Yu's intention and rushed over to protect Qu Bo.
The Americans are also very smart. When they see that the Chinese team is trying to waste time, they don’t run over and ask the referee to deal with this matter.
The referee asked Qu Bo to leave the field quickly, and then showed Chen Yu a yellow card.
The game continued to start, and a minute had passed. The key was not the delayed minute. But after this little episode, the Chinese team players had time to breathe and communicate, while the momentum and rhythm of the American team were disrupted, and they could no longer play the smooth offensive before substitution.
In the five minutes of stoppage time, the US team tried all kinds of methods, with eight crosses alone, but the forward was still incompetent, and other players were unable to seize the opportunity. At the last moment, Adu shot and hit the post, and the ball bounced out of the baseline, which also announced that the US team's dream of entering the quarterfinals was shattered.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the Chinese players who were so tired that they were almost exhausted suddenly became energetic. They took off their shirts and ran to the stands, shouting at the fans in the stands, so excited that they couldn't do it themselves.
The fans in the stands were much more crazy than the Chinese team players. The fans in front jumped into the stadium regardless of the danger, while the fans in the back squeezed forward wildly, wanting to see the players on the field closer.
The scene was a bit chaotic, and the security guards all ran to the stands of Chinese fans to maintain order.
He Shiren didn’t have time to write poems at this time, he only yelled excitedly, "The game ends! The game ends! The Chinese team entered the quarterfinals! The last five minutes are too difficult! Every second is so long! I have watched the game for more than 20 years and have never been as heart-wrenching as today! But the result is beautiful! We entered the quarterfinals of the World Cup! The Chinese people’s football dream has come true, and we have become a world-class team..."
The Chinese entered the carnival mode, while the Americans fell into endless pain. The American team played very hard in this game and created a big basket of shots, but they only scored a penalty, which made the American team players and fans very angry.
The American players were unwilling to watch the Chinese team celebrate. As soon as the whistle sounded, they immediately lowered their heads and walked towards the locker room without even paying homage to the fans.
Clinton in the VIP box shook his head regretfully. The United States did not lose all the American team games he watched on the spot. This time he wanted to bring some good luck to the United States. Unexpectedly, if the United States lost this time, it would still be lost to the Chinese team. This made Clinton very embarrassed. He greeted several football league chairmen and Clinton hurriedly left.
The Chinese team defeated the US team and entered the quarterfinals, which was another upset. After the game, major media regarded the Chinese team as a big dark horse, because the next round of the Chinese team was facing Uruguay, and no one dared to conclude that the Chinese team would not continue to be upset. After all, Uruguay played defensively and counterattacked, and its strength was not so unattainable. The Chinese team had upset hopes.
With former World Footballer Chen Yu's fifth goal in this World Cup, the Chinese team defeated the United States 2-1 and successfully entered the quarterfinals of the South African World Cup. After the game, major media from the world reported the game in detail at the first time. Whether it was the Associated Press, Reuters or AFP, almost all focused the reports on Real Madrid superstar Chen Yu, who performed well in this game, and made it clear that his official goal ensured that the Chinese team, who participated in the World Cup for the second time, made a breakthrough in the World Cup. Without Chen Yu, the Chinese team might not even come to South Africa.
After the game, the American media also gave a detailed introduction to the game. Sports Illustrated: Three major factors led to the defeat. First, he failed to watch the Chinese team's core Chen Yu and allowed him to score twice. Second, goalkeeper Howard performed poorly, and third, the forward's ability to seize opportunities was too poor, otherwise the American team would advance.
Time magazine's website reported this game with the title "Ghana eliminated Team USA for two consecutive World Cups". The article stated that the Sino-US battle that was hotly hyped before the game was ultimately the weaker Chinese team defeated the American soldiers with a score of 2-1 and advanced to the quarterfinals. However, while the article felt sorry for the team's loss of the game, it was also satisfied with the fighting spirit shown by the team in the United States when they were behind in the score. Even if they lost this game, the players of the team still put huge pressure on the Chinese team. They could not change the score on the field. Any good forward does not need to accept the fate of being eliminated by their opponents.
After the Chinese team reached the quarterfinals, the domestic sports media in China almost never reported other games. Almost all the pages were used on the Chinese team. Even national mouthpieces such as Xinhua Daily and People's Daily reported the good news on important pages.
Xinhua Daily introduced the game with the title "Chinese team shot down Team USA". The article stated that Chen Yu's goal in the 80th minute not only made himself the biggest competitor of the World Cup Golden Boot, but also made the American team, which was trying to equalize the score, into the bottomless abyss. Although the American team scored one goal in the 88th minute and played one more player, the poor forward line did not seize the opportunity to score, forcing the US team to bid farewell to the South African World Cup.
This is the second time the Chinese team is playing in the World Cup. They are generally not optimistic, but the Chinese team has reached the quarterfinals in one fell swoop and become the darkest dark horse. Next Friday, the Chinese team will compete with Uruguay for a seat in the semi-finals. They may be expected to tie the best record in Asia's World Cup.
People's Daily: Chen Yu sent the Chinese team to the quarterfinals, and he also became the most dazzling star in the World Cup.
The News Broadcast not only spent more than two minutes to broadcast the news that the Chinese team reached the quarterfinals, but also played two goals scored by Chen Yu and gave Chen Yu the title of national hero.
