Chapter 268 Dragons and tigers fight! The battle has just begun!
Head coach Lippi really wanted to cry, but he didn't expect to be tricked by Zhang Linpeng for the second time.
If I had known that a substitute central defender would be brought in, if he hadn't seen that he could play as a central defender or a full-back, he would never have considered Zhang Linpeng so important.
Well, you can only make your own choice by swallowing it in your stomach.
The situation isn't that bad now. Anyway, we can play some games.
There is nothing to adjust. The guys on the court actually like to attack. Let's see what they do next. Lippi is still firmly on the Diaoyutai.
The South Korean team did not expect that an own goal would change the trend of the game. Coach Pinto raised his arms in celebration on the sidelines of the court. No one else in the world is more eager for this game than him.
I still remember last year, when he just took over the South Korean team, the first friendly match he played was against the Chinese team.
He stood on the sidelines of the court in agony for 90 minutes, watching helplessly as the Korean team was slaughtered.
Today will be a day of revenge, at least now with a 1:0 lead, it seems that the Korean team has a chance.
He had worked hard these past few days, and even argued with the coaching staff no less than five times about what lineup and tactics to use to face the Chinese team. Everyone argued endlessly. In the end, he ignored all opinions and followed his own plan.
Ideas go.
Attack, crazy attack.
Defense, crazy defense.
In order to study Luo Wu, he watched all Luo Wu's games in Europe, and even did not miss all the technical details.
And based on the tactics of those teams against Arsenal, whether offensive or defensive, he came to a conclusion, that is, the tactics must be consistent and always implement the same tactics. Never be timid and worry about gains and losses. This will only lead to failure in the end.
bring failure.
Now his mind is still very clear, that is, continue to follow the rhythm just now, continue to attack fiercely, and continue to defend desperately.
Zhang Yuning lightly kicked the ball to Luo Wu. Luo Wu stepped on the ball and waited for his opponent to come up before passing the ball back to Xu Xin.
There is no need to be anxious at this time and there is no need to get into chaos. Being behind by one goal is not scary. What is scary is everyone’s mentality.
As long as everyone's mentality remains stable, there will be success.
As expected, the Korean team fought very actively and did not retreat to the backcourt just because they were ahead by one goal. They should have continued to press throughout the game.
The veteran Zheng Zhi still made triangle passes with Xu Xin and Wu Xi in the midfield, and was not in a hurry to send the ball to all sides.
The vision of these three guys is actually quite broad, and they are currently the three best midfielders in China.
Except for Wu Xi, whose defensive ability is slightly weaker, the other two are both offensive and defensive.
Although Li Qinglong and his teammates tried to disrupt the Chinese team's offense in the midfield, Zheng Zhi, who was more experienced, still ran out of space by moving quickly to the left.
Then he sent an overhead long pass in the midfield. The ball hit the South Korean team's penalty area and found Zhang Yuning.
Young Chinese forward Zhang Yuning did not suffer any loss when facing Jin Yingquan's physical confrontation. He was stunned to hold Jin Yingquan behind him and then gave the ball to Wei Shihao.
The cunning Wei Shihao did not stop the ball, stretched out his right foot and lightly touched it, and cleverly put the ball over Jin Wenzai's head, and then got the ball near the baseline again.
He is worthy of being the second player in China who can break through.
His outstanding performance immediately disrupted the Korean team's back line, and both Li Qinglong and Huang Renkuan had to run in this direction.
But soon a hole appeared in the middle of the Korean team, and Xu Xin caught up.
Zheng Zhi also followed. As long as Wei Shihao can pick out the ball, he may be able to form a strong threat.
This was something the Korean team did not expect before the game. They thought Wu Lei would continue to start, but it turned out to be Wei Shihao.
However, Li Qinglong and Jin Wenzhai tightly surrounded Wei Shihao on the outside, preventing Wei Shihao from taking even half a step into the penalty area. Wei Shihao could only dunk the ball back and try to take it outside.
But Jin Wenzai secretly pushed him hard from behind, making Wei Shihao unable to stand firm. Li Qinglong immediately seized the opportunity and sprinted to his side, and forced the ball away, but still let the Chinese team take it.
A corner kick was reached.
Luo Wu ran over from the right and continued to take the corner kick. He observed the South Korean team's penalty area and did not immediately pass the ball in, nor did he take a tactical corner kick.
He chose to kick the ball with his left foot.
The ball first entered the Korean team's penalty area, then drew a very strong arc, and finally landed in front of the Korean team's penalty area.
This is a high-quality curve ball.
Everyone in the penalty area was deceived, thinking that the ball would go over their heads, but the ball suddenly turned out of the penalty area as if it had eyes!
Zheng Zhi is there.
The ball was like a precision guide. Zheng Zhi hardly needed to move. He directly raised his left foot and waited for the ball to land in front of him. He bowed and shot.
No one came up to stop him and he could finish the shot calmly.
"Zheng Zhi!"
"Shoot!"
As the occupying army shouted excitedly, Zheng Zhi volleyed with his left foot.
boom!
A shocking volley.
The ball went straight to the upper left corner of the goal. It seemed that no one could stop it, but the South Korean team's goalkeeper was so perverted. He quickly took a step across, then jumped up, and rolled towards the goal regardless of his own safety.
In the upper left corner, his left palm shot out in time, and he stabbed the ball out with his fingertips.
"Woohoo~"
"The Korean goalkeeper is very good. He can block this ball! It's really unreasonable. I feel that even if you let De Gea stand here for this ball, he may not be able to save it."
The Korean fans in the stands were feeling very cold, while the Chinese fans let out a huge sigh. They were all planning to celebrate, but God was not in favor.
Zheng Zhi's world-beating kick actually didn't fly into the goal, but just won another corner kick opportunity for the Chinese team.
"It's still the Chinese team's corner kick, and Luo Wu should take it."
"I wonder what tactics we will use this time?"
Luo Wu stood at the corner flag again and observed the same thing. But this time he used his right foot when he started, and his right foot once again made a curve ball!
call!
The ball seemed to be blown by a biting wind and went straight to the back of the goal.
Luo Wu actually chose to shoot directly!
He saw that the goalkeeper was in a forward position, so he simply chose to attack the back position.
No one hit the ball alone. The ball turned crazily into the upper left corner of the goal and was about to fly into the goal.
This time, the goalpost blocked the ball, and there was a duang sound as the ball bounced out.
It was another frightening attack. But the South Korean team was still lucky. The ball bounced outside the penalty area on the left side and Son Heung-min got the ball.
There was no time to continue sighing at Luo Wu's direct attack, and the Korean team immediately turned to a quick counterattack.
Son Heung-min did not wait for his teammates, but worked hard and dribbled the ball crazily to accelerate forward!
da da,
Ta-ta-ta!
The speed is amazing.
It's as graceful as a startled dragon, like a swimming dragon.
It's a pleasure to watch him dribbling the ball.
Xu Xin was the first to rush over and tried to stop him with a flying shovel, but Sun Xingmin deftly pushed to the left and dodged.
Quite flexible.
Playing football leisurely.
After this dunk, Son Heung-min accelerated again and got rid of Xu Xin.
The old captain Zheng Zhi ran all the way and rushed behind him with great strides, but no matter how hard he ran, he couldn't catch up. After all, he was only 38 years old.
Next, we can only watch Zhang Linpeng and Shi Ke.
If neither defender can stop Son Heung-min, should they both retire from the national team?
But this situation will happen. Son Heung-min is a world-class forward after all. When faced with the interception of two defenders, he was not nervous at all.
Even in the Premier League, you can get things from your pocket, so why be afraid of rookie defenders like these in China.
Calmly, he first feinted a shot to the right, and while his body sank sharply to the right, he did not take a step. With such a simple action, he actually deceived these two guys at the same time.
The two guys bumped into each other awkwardly. It was only at this time that Son Heung-min took a step and lightly dunked his right foot to the left. The ball was cut from the left towards the Chinese team's penalty area.
No one came to stop him anymore, only Yan Junling.
He is the last barrier for the Chinese team.
In other words, Son Heung-min traveled thousands of miles alone, single-handedly challenged the Chinese team's defense, and then created a single attack.
Yan Junling could only bite the bullet and attack. Whether he could save the ball or not, he had to leave it to fate.
As a world-class winger, Son Heung-min certainly won't be as helpless as Wu Lei.
Facing Yan Junling, his right ankle shook slightly, and Yan Junling immediately fell sideways.
But he was deceived!
Son Heung-min didn't take the shot at all.
After he pounced down, Son Heung-min immediately hit the ball in the middle!
Suddenly moving to the middle, the whole person immediately accelerated, avoiding Yan Junling in an instant, and finally formed an empty goal.
It's over.
In the end, Sun Xing rewritten the score to 2:0.
"Oops, we lost the ball again. Why didn't this defense ever make people feel relieved? It was Zhang Linpeng, and this time Shi Ke was added. The two faced Sun Xingmin at the same time, and they didn't even touch the ball. The ball couldn't be touched.
Forget it, you can’t even hold anyone back?”
"What a shame."
"No one can predict in advance whether the two of them will defend or not. One will attack and the other will attack. What are the two of them doing standing there parallel to each other? Are they watching a show?"
"This is so funny. If I were Lippi, I would never call Zhang Linpeng!"
The occupying army broke through the defense again.
Abu Dhabi Stadium has once again become a sea of joy for Koreans.
"Son Heung-min!"
"Son Heung-min!"
"Son Heung-min is three goals ahead, Smecta!"
"We are the first Smecta!"
The whole place was filled with Smecta's voice.
At this time, the old captain Zheng Zhi walked back to Zhang Linpeng and Shi Ke angrily.
"Aren't you two idiots?"
"If you don't want to play, just leave the field. Don't embarrass yourself here!"
"I feel ashamed for you. If you don't cheer up and concentrate on playing this game well, what will happen in the future?"
Zheng Zhi was not polite at all and scolded them outright. Anyone else would not have the qualifications.
Not even Luo Wu.
Zhang Linpeng and Shi Ke didn't dare to talk nonsense, so they could only lower their heads and accept Zheng Zhi's criticism.
Although the other teammates didn't say anything, they were definitely unhappy, especially goalkeeper Yan Junling. He was probably scolding Japan for being such a loser. How come these two cheating teammates were involved?
"What should I do? I never thought that I would be two goals behind at the beginning. I made two mistakes and gave the opponent two goals. The Chinese team was very unlucky today."
"We should still have a chance to win, what do you think, Coach Zhang?"
Zhang Lu smiled:
"hey-hey,"
"If we continue playing like this, maybe we will lose to South Korea by a big score. The defenders are in such poor condition. This is something I didn't expect. Let's see what Lippi will do next.
Adjustment?"
"It's okay that the problem has been exposed now. If it were in the knockout round, then we might have to pack our bags and go back to China."
Lippi finally stood up from the coaching bench, walked to the side of the court, put his hands on his hips, squinted at the disciples on the court, opened his mouth slightly and then closed it again.
Maybe he feels that scolding is useless, and it is unrealistic to replace players now. Let's see if the team can perform on the offensive end.
After all, the offense is still very good so far in the game, but the defense is too stretched, but the defense has always been like this.
Fight again.
The South Korean team still did not have a formation recovery. As soon as the Chinese team kicked off the ball, they rushed up and pressed the whole court.
Zheng Zhi took the ball very calmly. He and Xu Xin hit the wall and then split the ball to Wu Xi.
The opponent pressed too hard, and Wu Xi could only pass the ball back to Xu Yang.
Jin Heecan ran very fast and quickly rushed in front of Xu Yang. All Xu Yang could do was make a big-footed clearance. Didn't this give the ball to South Korea?
Zhang Yuning in front still rushed forward. After Jin Yingquan took the ball away, his whole body still bumped into Jin Yingquan. Such a reckless move still caused the referee to come over and give him a yellow card.
"Zhang Yuning, is there something wrong with his brain? Why should he infringe on his opponent in this situation? Is it because he has too few yellow cards?"
"Everyone needs to calm down at this time. Impulsiveness will only make the situation worse."
Jin Yingquan was very calm and didn't care about Zhang Yuning at all. After getting up, he walked to the other side to pick up the ball. After the referee's whistle blew, he immediately kicked the ball to Li Qinglong.
Li Qinglong went straight to Sun Heung-min, and Sun Heung-min came again.
However, this time Xu Xin came over calmly and did not have time to react like last time. He stuck closely to Sun Xingmin and forced him to dribble the ball to the outside. Finally, with the help of Shi Ke, Sun Xingmin took the ball out of the sideline.
.
Xu Xin quickly picked up the ball and threw it to Zheng Zhi in the middle. Zheng Zhi without hesitation passed the ball to Luo Wu on the right sideline. Luo Wu finally got the ball.
At this time, only Huang Renkuan was defending Luo Wu. Luo Wu would definitely not miss this one-on-one opportunity. The ball almost rolled forward along the sideline, and Huang Renkuan rushed over from the flank.
When he was close to the ball, Luo Wu took the initiative to smash the ball toward the middle. The amplitude was not very large, but it was enough for Huang Renkuan to stop his body and quickly adjust his body direction.
The result was obvious. Luo Wu was just pretending to cut to the middle. In the end, he dunked the ball back, then took a fierce step and passed Huang Renkuan easily.
Then he cut inside again, and this time no one came to stop him. The closest to him was South Korea's left back Kim Pearl.
Jin Zhenzhu quickly moved to the middle, and at the same time, another teammate Huang Xican also ran over. Both of them moved to the middle at the same time, causing Luo Wu to instantly lose the space to cut inside.
Luo Wu didn't need to think, he changed his line to the outside again, just gritted his teeth and dribbled the ball to the bottom line!
Jin Zhenzhu still didn't lose track, and immediately turned in the opposite direction and continued to pursue the bottom line with Huang Xican. It seemed that they were well prepared, and even Luo Wu couldn't get rid of him.
Luo Wu immediately swept the ball into the Korean team's penalty area. Out of the corner of his eye, he had already seen Zhang Yuning rushing in and carrying Jin Youngquan behind him.
As long as the ball reaches Zhang Yuning's feet, Zhang Yuning will have a good chance of scoring.
The ball rotated along the turf and finally came to Zhang Yuning. Zhang Yuning raised his arms and swept with his right foot!
He completed the shot, but his entire body fell to the turf.
Kim Young Kwon made some small moves behind him, otherwise it wouldn't be like this, the calf didn't exert any strength!
The ball rolled weakly towards the goal and was eventually picked up by the goalkeeper.
The Chinese team missed a good opportunity to score.
The occupying army immediately yelled and cursed.
"Kim Young-Kwon made a little move from behind. This move was disgusting. He must have pushed Zhang Yuning before Zhang Yuning was able to kick. This guy is really cunning. When he was in the Chinese Super League, I felt that he played better than anyone else.
Central defenders are all smart, and Zhang Linpeng and Feng Xiaoting are far behind in this regard."
But for such a small foul, the referee would not call for it at all, and in the end he just awarded a goal kick.
And Lippi finally spoke from the side of the court, beckoning everyone to press forward.
You can only do this if you are two goals behind, but if you do this, it will be very risky. Son Heung-min has a sharp knife stuck in the heart of China and can launch a threatening counterattack at any time.
Wouldn't it be better if the Korean team's attack was launched from the left? Fortunately, the defense was in place and Son Heung-min was not allowed to break through the defense this time.
It was veteran captain Zheng Zhi who grabbed the ball.
However, Li Qinglong also came to his side immediately. Zheng Zhi pulled the ball in a circle and let Li Qinglong miss it.
Four taels of gold were allocated, and then distributed to Xu Xin.
He then ran up from the left, and Xu Xinxin passed the ball back.
At this time, he also has to push forward, and he can't play as Buddhist as before.
After receiving the ball again, he observed while dribbling the ball, glanced at Wei Shihao on the left, raised his arms, and swept the ball with his right foot!
It looks like it will be passed to Wei Shihao.
But after the right foot landed, it hit the outside of the instep!
The attention of the Korean team players was all focused on Wei Shihao, but the result was an outside instep?
His real purpose is to pass the ball to Luo Wu!
Although there were two Korean players in the middle, the ball still passed through the middle obediently.
Huang Xican and Huang Renfan were so stunned by such a concealed pass that they rolled right in front of Luo Wu.
Luo Wu followed the ball with his left foot and immediately advanced more than one meter, then directly faced Kim Jin-soo!
It also approached the right side of the penalty area.
Jin Zhenzhu didn't dare to take action, his eyes were wandering, as if he was waiting for his teammates to come to help.
Luo Wu decisively chipped the ball with his right outside foot, and the nervous Jin Zhenzhu immediately followed Luo Wu's body movement.
But such a simple move stunned Kim Jin-soo.
Luo Wu is playing with an ox's tail.
After Oxtail pulled the ball back, Huang Xican also arrived, but Luo Wu had already swung the ball with his left foot.
Jin Chengkui in front of the goal was actually guarding the near goal post, staring at Luo Wu's every move.
As soon as he saw Luo Wu taking off his feet, he immediately squatted down and prepared to make a save.
but!
An outward-swinging arc instantly passed over Jin Yingquan and Zhang Yuning in the penalty area and flew towards the upper left corner of the goal.
What a mess!
It's not a close angle shot at all, but a far angle shot!
Jin Chengkui has done well enough, the only thing he didn't know was that Luo Wu would choose to hit the goal with the outside of his foot!
This damn way of shooting.
But he still made the save, even if he couldn't.
"Yes!"
"The ball is in!"
"Luowu!"
"Luo Wu has finally cracked up!"
"1:2."
"Luo Wu tied the score to 1:2 and scored his eighth goal in this cup."
"This shot is so beautiful. As long as you give him a chance to shoot, there will be almost no chance of losing unless the goalpost stands up to cause trouble. Zheng Zhi's pass is also very cool. The pass just now was played for a while.
He made a move to the east and hit the west, and then used another move to trick Chen Cang and quietly sent the ball to Luo Wu."
"Luo Wu uses his personal ability to find space for shooting!"
"Perfect!"
1:2.
It was finally the Chinese people's turn to cheer at the Abu Dhabi Stadium.
"Luowu!"
"Luowu!"
"Luowu!"
The Chinese fans cheered his name and finally felt proud. They had been happy for so long, not to mention how depressed they were.
When Son Heung-min scored South Korea's second goal, they even thought they were going to lose the game today.
The main reason is that Son Heung-min is too strong, the Korean team as a whole is too strong, and the Chinese team's back line is too weak.
But now Luo Wu's goal has restored their sanity.
The Chinese team has Luo Wu.
Having Luo Wu means scoring goals.
What's the hurry?
At this time, Luo Wu had already run back to the center circle and did not celebrate at all.
There is no need to celebrate being behind!
"I guess Luo Wu is already angry."
"He might be in goal-scoring mode. He's always been like this!"
Opposite him, Son Heung-min was staring at him with a very stern expression. He knew Luo Wu best and had played against Luo Wu three times in total.
Every time Luo Wu scored the first goal, he couldn't stop.
He realized that the real war had just begun now!
But today, we must not repeat the same mistakes as the previous two times.
You must stick to your own style of play!
You must fight attack with attack!
He knows better than anyone else that only in this way can he have the possibility of defeating Luo Wu...
