After the game started, Croatia's player position was 4231 during the off-ball phase. Brozovic was behind, and Rakitic and Modric came back. Most of the time, Rakitic came back, and Modric was closer.
superior.
In the offense, Croatia also played very cautiously. When switching from defense to offense, they only put 3-4 players on the front line. Their tactical purpose was very obvious, which was to first seize control of the midfield and prevent them from being wasted.
Lele burst into a sieve.
As for the Chinese team, the player's position when defending without the ball is 4231, but once the ball is held, the player's position is somewhat similar to 433.
Mo Yang, Wu Xi, and Zheng Zhi are in a triangular position in the midfield, with Mo Yang in front. They are neither far nor close to each other. They are very closely connected and rotate with each other. Other changes cannot be seen yet.
On the court, Mo Yang had been observing Modric's playing style in Croatia after the game started, but soon Mo Yang frowned.
Because Modric's position in this game is very flexible, sometimes he will stay wide, sometimes he will move forward, and sometimes he will defend in front of the two central defenders to get the ball.
The two midfielders, Rakitic and Brozovic, cooperated extremely well with Modric, making Mo Yang feel like he was facing Real Madrid's midfield.
Rakitic and Brozovic are the Croatian version of Kroos and Casemiro.
At 2 minutes and 37 seconds of the game, Mo Yang made a long pass from the center circle to Wu Lei on the right, but Croatia's left back Strinic had obviously been warned before the game. He realized the danger behind him the moment Mo Yang passed the ball.
.
In the end, Strinic blocked Wu Lei from the outside line on the edge of the penalty area.
Wu Lei spiked the ball and stopped facing the penalty area. When he saw it, Bai Lele entered the Croatian penalty area with two tails. He quickly forced a pass down the bottom.
Strinic is 187cm tall and is definitely outstanding among full-backs. Although his defensive ability is very good, he also has the shortcomings of big players in turning and starting. He turned and followed up slowly, which led to Wu Lei's successful kick.
, pass the ball to the back point.
On the left goal post, Bai Lele was made into a sandwich biscuit by Lovren and Vrsaliko, and Lovren in front of him also used his position to block him, using his left hand to pull and loosen his left waist.
, just to keep him from jumping.
Finally, the ball hit Vrsaliko's shoulder and bounced out of the baseline.
Mo Yang took the ball and came to the left corner kick. When he looked into the penalty area, the corner of his mouth suddenly twitched.
Good guys, the Croatian players are back collectively.
In the penalty area, Croatia defended 9 from 5, and Modric was the only one standing at the top of the arc.
On the left side of the free throw arc, Wu Lei looked at Mo Yang and saw that Mo Yang suddenly made a 6 sign before taking the free throw. He suddenly started to rush towards Mo Yang.
Modric was startled when he saw him at the top of the arc. He wanted to immediately start chasing after him. At the same time, he did not forget to shout into the penalty area, "Look at the top of the arc!"
At the same time, Mo Yang took a corner kick, and the ball did not fly into the sky above the penalty area, but flew close to the turf towards Wu Lei.
When Modric saw Mo Yang sprinting face to face with Wu Lei after serving the ball, he knew what he was going to do.
So he quickly slowed down and stopped following Wu Lei.
Sure enough, in the next second, Wu Lei hit the ball and knocked it back to Mo Yang's feet. At this moment, Modric found the right opportunity and fell to the ground to make a sliding tackle.
On Mo Yang's side, the moment he caught the ball, he raised his foot and stepped on the ball, trying to make a Marseille spin to pass Modric.
In the end, he never expected Modric to be so bold in making moves.
Under the gaze of hundreds of millions of eyes around the world, everyone thought that Mo Yang would definitely fall to the ground.
Some Chinese fans even wondered whether the ball would be a foul.
If a foul is committed, a free kick in the left side rib area is also a good position.
However, in the next second, everyone suddenly saw Mo Yang's right foot stepping on the ball to the right.
Suddenly the ball bounced up under the force, and then Mo Yang tilted his body to the right and jumped out first. Just when he was about to leave the position, he actually caught the bouncing ball with his feet and held it
Take them away together.
"Fuck!!"
"Come on! Someone is doing acrobatics at the World Cup!"
"ho!!!God!!!"
"Holy shit!"
"This devil!!"
"Oh my god! What kind of body control ability is this!"
"..."
Looking at Mo Yang, who jumped nearly half a meter to the right and perfectly avoided Modric, all the fans were dumbfounded at this moment.
Xu Yang and Shao Jiayi in the live commentary stands, and He Wei in the domestic live broadcast room all blinked at this moment, and the six people were collectively shocked.
Modric slid across the ground. At this time, his whole body was numbed by Mo Yang, and he made another evasive action that he had never seen before.
The next second, Modric, who was gliding, used his inertia to support himself on the ground, stood up quickly, and continued to chase Mo Yang.
At this time, Mo Yang had reached the area 35 meters in front of the left rib.
There was no way, Croatia reacted very quickly, so he had to take it back diagonally.
Seeing Croatian players swarming out of the penalty area, everyone immediately thought that the Chinese team's attack was over.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
In front of Mo Yang, Rakitic was approaching quickly. Just when he was about to wrap his body around Mo Yang, he actually saw Mo Yang take a long shot.
At this moment, Rakitic felt a little happy. He thought it was due to their tacit defense cooperation this time.
In front of Rakitic, Mo Yang caught up with the ball that was about to stop rolling. He suddenly exerted force and made a loud bang. Suddenly the ball was like a bolt of lightning passing through the air, disappearing in a flash and heading straight for the Croatian goal.
Rakitic did not intercept this shot because he judged that the shooting distance was between 35-38 meters. In addition, it was in the area in front of the left rib and the position was wrong, so Rakitic felt that Mo Yang's long shot was
Not much of a threat.
Moreover, Rakitic also knows Mo Yang's heavy artillery attributes, so he believes that there is no need to risk being injured by the ball to block a long-distance shot that has a slim chance of scoring.
At this time, if the Croatian goalkeeper Subasic in front of the goal line knew that Rakitic had this idea, he would definitely take out 98K and shoot Rakitic in the head.
In front of the small penalty area, Subasic saw that the ball was extremely fast and did not deviate from the goal frame at all, going straight to the goal post on his left.
Suddenly Subasic's body subconsciously tilted sharply to the left, preparing to save.
However, just as he leaned to the left, Subasic saw that the ball flew in front of him without any spin.
The next second, before Subasic could be frightened, he saw the ball in front of him suddenly turn to the right.
Such a small change in the flight path of the ball immediately sent the Monaco club's main goalkeeper into an abyss.
When Subasic pulled his body back to make the save, he was just a little slower. His right hand rubbed the right back of the ball, and then he plunged into the Croatian goal, making the net tremble.
At this moment, time seems to have frozen!
The Nizhny Novgorod stadium, which can accommodate 50,000 fans, fell into an eerie silence.
A second later, a cheering sound like a high-pressure fountain underground rose into the sky.
“goal!!!!!!!”
"goal!! Goal!! Goal!!! Goal!!"
In the blue commentary stand and the England commentary stand, Andy Gray screamed like he was dying and was dancing around, looking like a madman.
“The ball is in!!!!”
"In! In! In! In! In!"
In the Chinese commentary box, Xu Yang and Shao Jiayi jumped up from their seats after staying for 3 seconds, then raised their arms in the air and cheered.
At this moment, nearly 30,000 Chinese fans were engaged in a carnival feast.
The rapid drumbeats, the passionate suona, and the melodious erhu sounds were intertwined to stage a celebration with Chinese characteristics.
On the sidelines, Lippi raised his arms high and walked back to the coaching bench unhurriedly to celebrate with Mei Fang, Madaloni and others who rushed out.
Dalic, who was next to him, had a gloomy face and was so angry that he kept punching the air with his fists.
This goal was so unexpected! Dalic never expected that at that position, angle, and distance, Mo Yang would dare to take a long shot, and it miraculously scored. At this moment, Dalic felt extremely depressed.
This depression makes me feel as if I am in a raging flame, extremely anxious!
On the field, watching the ball go in, Mo Yang opened his arms, turned around and ran towards the flagpole. In the camera, Mo Yang's sweaty cheeks were glowing red.
