Chapter 7 Making History
When the game reached 33 minutes, Chile launched an attack.
Because Yang Muge and Yang Hao swept the middle lane, the Chilean team did not go to the middle lane this time, but went directly to the side lane.
When they hit the football to the wing and then crossed it to the front of the goal, they wanted to directly threaten the Chinese team's goal, this time, Guo Nu, who was not tall, jumped up and rushed to the front of everyone and pushed the football out.
"Guo Nu headed the ball to clear! This season he has also obtained many opportunities to play in Inter Milan and has been fully trained. Moreover, playing in Serie A has also improved his ability to direct and arrange defense lines in defense. Any fan who has seen Guo Nu's game in Inter Milan would probably not be too surprised by Guo Nu's headed, and he may even think that this headed is too simple..."
"Well, although Guo Nu did not participate in the Champions League like his friends. This may make people not understand him enough and despise him. But in fact, his performance on the Inter Milan defense line is very stable and outstanding..."
Guo Nu pushed the ball out of the penalty area, and Zheng Zhi received the ball with his back to the offensive direction. He had no time to turn around and directly passed the ball back to Yang Muge.
Yang Muge passed the ball to Yan Min on the left side.
Before the football was passed to Yan Min's feet, Chile's Arangis rushed up and wanted to intercept the ball before Yan Min received the ball.
Yan Min did not catch the ball, but poked the football forward, then twisted his body and barely wiped it from Arangis. With his excellent starting speed, he accelerated and surpassed Arangis and caught up with the football.
"Beautiful! The man ball has been scored! Yan Min is very flexible! Alanguis can't catch him at all!"
After the man ball was split and left Alanguis, Yan Min did not pass the ball immediately, but continued to drive the ball to rush.
His aura of dribbling the ball made the Chinese fans in the stands cheer.
Amid their cheers, Yan Min Benz was on the left side of the court.
Chile's right-back Gonzalo Hala came up to defend Yan Min.
Yan Min seemed to have not seen Hara at all. He was going to speed up and forcibly break through.
This is simply an insult to Hara - any offensive player does not slow down in the face of his defense, but accelerates, which only means that the offensive player does not take him seriously at all and believes that he can simply break through by speed.
Hara naturally was not willing to be outdone, so he immediately leaned forward, intending to use his close body to make Yan Min slow down.
His strategy was successful, and Yan Min, who was stuck by him, did not simply break through Hala by speed.
Yan Min, who was stuck, swung his left foot while running, making a gesture to pass it.
Of course, Hara wouldn't let him pass the football so easily, so she squeezed it up again.
But after Yan Min swung his left foot, he did not cross it, but instead hit the ball back!
At the same time, he stopped suddenly and stopped suddenly while running at high speed. Then he turned around without any effort for Yan Min. This is his specialty. But not everyone can be as flexible as him.
Hala wanted to squeeze Yan Min away at that time, so his center of gravity was unstable. After being stopped by Yan Min, he lost his balance and slid directly out...
Yan Min got rid of the defense, and he immediately cut the football inside and led it into the penalty area!
Chile did not expect that Hala was thrown away by Yan Min so easily, which completely disrupted their arrangements.
For a moment, one of the two central defenders in front of the goal rushed towards Yan Min, and their midfielder Diaz also rushed back to guard Yan Min.
The Chilean penalty area suddenly became chaotic.
Yan Min seized the chaos and sent the football out. He passed the football up and passed it to the back point of the goal.
There, He Ying rushed over at high speed, and then took advantage of this momentum to jump forward and rush forward!
His forehead was firmly pressed against the flying football!
There was no defensive player around him. They either defended Yan Min or defended Gao Lin. He Ying was not prepared for the way he came from behind...
So He Ying pushed a comfortable rush to the top!
The football was headed towards the goal!
At such a close distance, Chilean goalkeeper Bravo, who had retreated from the near corner to the far corner, failed to touch the football and the ball flew into the goal!
"He Ying--!!!!!" Duan Xin at the scene stood up from her seat excitedly, chanting. "He Ying!!! He Ying! The ball is in -! He scored a goal for the Chinese team! This is the first World Cup goal in the history of the Chinese men's football team! This is a historic moment! He Ying! The Chinese team's beautiful counterattack! Beautiful goal! Guo Nu! Zheng Zhi! Yang Muge! Yan Min! He Ying! Each of them left their names forever in the history of Chinese football! They created history! And we! Audience friends! We are fortunate to witness the birth of history!"
Zhang Lu also said excitedly from the side: "This counterattack is really great! Everyone handled the ball very correctly, whether it was Zheng Zhi's return, Yang Muge's pass, or Yan Min's dribbling breakthrough... In the counterattack, every chain is required to be perfect, otherwise as long as there is a problem with one link, the ball will not be scored! The Chinese team played what Lippi wanted to see! Under two goals behind, he won a goal before the first half ended... There is still suspense in this game!"
※※※
The cheers of Chinese fans sounded over the Pantanal Arena. This was the first time in this game, they made their voices unscrupulously and declared their attitude.
Amid the cheers, He Ying, who scored the goal, turned around excitedly and ran to the stands where Chinese fans gathered - behind their own goal, he had to run across the entire stadium.
During this process, he also wanted to take off his clothes to celebrate, but just as he lifted his jersey halfway, he remembered that he wanted to take off his clothes to celebrate, because he was getting yellow cards for this matter. If there was any accident in the future game, it would be troublesome. Now that Zhou Yi is absent, he can no longer lose anything in personnel.
So the last trace of reason overcame the excitement and he put the jersey down again. But he still opened his arms and rushed to the stand where the Chinese team fans were. His speed was already fast, and now he tried his best to rush to the bottom of the stand in the shortest time, then slid down and slid to the billboard before stopping.
His teammates also slid and knelt down with the opportunity.
Sun Pan also rushed up to participate in the celebration.
What about the Chinese fans? They waved everything they could waving to the Chinese players in the stadium - fists, scarves, slogans, and national flags.
This scene is destined to become a classic picture in the future Chinese football memory.
This is the first time that the Chinese have been venting their emotions in the World Cup.
※※※
Seeing He Ying scored a goal, Zhou Yi, who was standing on the sidelines, jumped up, then turned around and ran to his bench teammates, hugging them, and everyone was shouting and screaming to celebrate the goal.
Although it was just a goal, it had not even tied the score.
But the situation has quietly changed.
This goal is just the beginning, and the Chinese team will not succumb to any difficulties!
Of course, the broadcasting camera did not forget to take care of Zhou Yi, and also recorded the scene of Zhou Yi and his teammates celebrating the goal.
The Chinese team was celebrating the goal wildly, while the Chilean team was a little depressed.
It took only ten seconds from their attack to their conceding of the ball.
The ball was lost too quickly and they hadn't reacted yet.
And this loss of the ball made them have some bad thoughts.
※※※
When the replay of this goal began to be played on TV, Duan Xin's mood finally calmed down a little.
In this replay, he and Zhang Lu began to analyze the goal, and praised the team's performance.
Zhang Lu said: "Guo Nu's header cleared very decisively... Zheng Zhi's return pass is also very smart. If he wants to take the ball down and then turn around himself, this counterattack will probably not be able to be played. Zheng Zhi was also guarded by his opponent in this game. Chile knew very well that Zheng Zhi's appearance was to replace Zhou Yi, so his position and Zhou Yi's role were the same, so they were not weak in Zheng Zhi's defense... Zheng Zhi handled this ball very smartly, Yang Muge was smarter next time. He didn't even stop the ball, so he directly passed the football to Yan Min in front of the diagonal... Next was Yan Min's personal performance time. First, he scored the ball alone while receiving the ball, passed Arangis, and then shook Hara by making an emergency stop and changing direction... He fully demonstrated his characteristics in Dortmund. This is how Yan Min played in Dortmund this season..."
Duan Xin continued: "Yan Min was also very smart when the last pass was passed. He did not pass it to Gao Lin in front of the goal, but to the gap behind Gao Lin. At that time, it was still an open space, and there was no one... He Ying saw this gap like Yan Min, so he rushed forward at high speed, and finally he had a beautiful and powerful rush to the top... The entire goal line was clear, the idea was clear, and it was a textbook-like fast counterattack! It was really great to use such a goal to open the goal history of the Chinese men's football team on the World Cup stage!"
"The last time the Chinese team participated in the World Cup was in 2002. At that time, we were discussing and looking forward to the birth of the goal. But in that World Cup, in that World Cup, the Chinese team did not score a single goal. There were also two goals shot to the post... Now, after twelve years, we finally waited for the goal!" Zhang Lu sighed.
