Chapter 14 Answering in the Name of World Wave
Although Robben created a murderous intent in the first five minutes of the game, although the Chinese team made a pass mistake in the first five minutes of the game and almost lost the ball.
But when the Dutch thought they could copy the start of Chile against China in the last game, they found that the situation was a little different from what they imagined.
They encountered the Chinese team's very tenacious resistance.
This is mainly reflected in the intensity of the fight.
There is a statistics that the country with the highest average height in the world is the Netherlands.
Although there are some physical gaps between the two sides, the Chinese team used their running and fighting spirit to make up for their physical shortcomings, and they bravely made physical contact with the Dutch team.
Almost every goal is a must-try.
This was something the Dutch team did not expect before the game. They did not expect that the Chinese team would be so tough.
In fact, this is exactly what Lippi repeatedly reminded the players before the game. For teams like the Netherlands, you must be tough enough and must not be overwhelmed by their momentum. If you are oppressed by their momentum, it will be difficult to turn over again.
With its tenacious and tough defense, the Chinese team caused great trouble for the Dutch team's offense.
The Dutch team's offense is difficult to organize and it is successfully advanced to the Chinese team's goal.
He Ping also praised the Chinese team's performance during this period: "It can be seen that the national team has carefully summarized the gains and losses of the previous game. They have obviously strengthened their defense after the opening game, and at the same time, everyone quickly entered the game state without any distraction..."
The tenacious defense prevented the Chinese team from conceding the ball in the first fifteen minutes this time.
Many Chinese fans who were worried that the Chinese team would repeat the same mistake were relieved.
Moreover, the Chinese team not only defends, but also tries to perform on the offensive end.
In the 16th minute, the Chinese team hit the ball to the front of the Dutch team's penalty area. Then Wu Lei made a cross from the right, Zheng Zhihou inserted and received Wu Lei's cross from the penalty area line and then shot!
Dutch central defender De Vry stretched out his legs to block the football and blocked the ball out of the baseline, so the Chinese team received a corner kick.
However, this corner kick did not threaten the Dutch team's goal, but instead allowed the Dutch team to make a quick attack.
The Chinese team left-back Rong Hao, who was chasing back, had to knock down the latter against Robben who was about to speed up on the side. The referee awarded the Dutch team a free kick and showed Rong Hao a yellow card, which was also the first yellow card for the Chinese team in this World Cup.
"Rong Hao has no choice. Robben's speed is about to be raised. If he doesn't foul, maybe Robben will directly dribble into the penalty area..." He Ping shook his head and said.
Then Ronaldo took the free kick from the wing, and he sent the ball to the goal. Van Persie rushed to the front before Guo Nu and headed the ball!
However, this ball failed to break through Sun Pan's ten fingers. He was too straight and Sun Pan waited for him to be on the right track.
In fact, it is very difficult to save the ball, but Sun Pan still lies on the ground with the ball in his arms and stays for two more seconds. He is using all means to delay the game. The Chinese team's goal in this game is to at least tie the Netherlands. The score is 0:0 now, so of course he has to try to make the game time faster...
Just when Chinese fans were all happy about the national team's defense, in the 20th minute, the Chinese team made a long pass in the backcourt and wanted to hit the football in front to find He Ying. However, the Dutch central defender Brind stuck his position, then jumped up and headed the ball back.
After Robben received the ball in the middle circle, he accelerated to lead.
Relying on his speed advantage, he quickly broke through Feng Xiaoting and ran towards the Chinese team's penalty area!
"Robben! It's Robben again! His speed is so fast! Many Chinese players chased him closely, but they couldn't catch up!" He Ping exclaimed.
At this time, Guo Nu, who was dragging behind, was originally guarding against Persie, but now he must not care about Van Persie anymore. He threw down the Dutch striker and rushed towards Robben.
Facing Guo Nu who was rushing over, Robben slightly pushed the ball to the left, dribbled the ball into the penalty area, and then shot without adjustment!
Guo Nu threw himself out and stretched out his foot to block Robben's shot.
His feet did touch the football, but he did not block the football from the bottom line. After the football knocked the soles of his feet, it changed the line and continued to fly towards the goal!
Sun Pan originally planned to jump into the corner - Robben shot in the corner.
But Guo Nu touched the football for a moment, and then flew to the far corner by a tragic devil!
Sun Pan, who had already fallen towards the near corner, could only kick the football with his feet, hoping to block the football with his feet.
As a result, football became even more tricky after being touched by Guo Nu, and he failed to touch football.
The football finally rushed into the goal from the far corner...
In the 20th minute, the Chinese team fell behind!
"Oh!" He Ping sighed heavily. "I still lost the ball! This ball is the ultimate embodiment of Robben's personal ability. His speed and dribbling rhythm are too good. In the end, the shot was blocked by Guo Nu and then hit a dead end. Even Sun Pan could not do anything... The perfect opponent and bad luck enough, the Chinese team lost this ball helplessly..."
※※※
Robben, who scored the goal, ran to the corner flag area with his arms wide open to celebrate the goal.
Behind him, Guo Nu and Sun Pan were both lying on the ground and did not get up.
Guo Nu covered his face with both hands. He knew that the ball was hit by the change line. If he didn't touch it, he might be saved by Sun Pan...
In this game, if you want to maximize the hope of tied the Netherlands, you must not concede the goal first.
But now it's only twenty minutes into the game, and it's only nine minutes later than the previous game...
Guo Nu slowly got up from the ground and saw Sun Pan who was also standing up slowly. He squirmed his mouth for a moment, but decided to apologize to Sun Pan. It was because he was the one who caused Sun Pan to lose the goal in two consecutive games. And didn’t Sun Pan even swear before the game that he swears not to lose the goal?
So he murmured, "That...isn't it..."
Unexpectedly, Sun Pan waved his hand, not seemingly angry because of the loss of the ball: "It's okay, at least nine minutes later than the previous game, which is considered an improvement."
Then he slapped hard and shouted to his teammates: "It's just a ball, it's no big deal! Let's just equalize!"
Then he pointed at He Ying: "Old He, aren't you very awesome? Now it's time to test you! Show some real skills!"
He Ying curled his lips and did not respond to Sun Pan. He turned around and strode into the middle circle.
Sun Pan was still roaring behind him: "Everyone cheer me up! Kill the Holland! What are you afraid of? Don't be cowardly! Just do it! Just fight with them! Fight!!"
He waved his fists, as if he was really going to rush out and have a fight with the Dutch team...
His roar echoed in the ears of every Chinese player, and every Chinese player who heard his roar couldn't help but clench his fists and gritted his teeth.
If we lose the goal first in two consecutive games, will we admit defeat?
No!
As Sun Pan said, all of them have reached this point, what else can I worry about? Being positive!
※※※
When the Dutch soldiers surrounded Robben and ran back to the half, they were still immersed in the atmosphere of joy leading the way.
I didn't notice the expressions on the faces of the Chinese players next to me.
They did not have the pain and frustration after losing the ball, but instead there was a fire in their eyes, and they couldn't wait to burn everything they saw.
They have already stood in their positions and waited for the Dutch team to come back and the game can start again.
※※※
When the game started again, He Ping was still discussing the goal he had just lost. In their opinion, the luck of the Chinese team was really bad. If Guo was not blocked by the ball, Robben might not be able to score...
"That's how football matches are..." Finally, "football poet" He Ping sighed and sighed. "Not every moment that changes destiny will happen, lightning and thunder will sound the background music. Sometimes, inadvertently, an accident may lead to a turn for fate... Before this loss of the ball, everyone was happy about the performance of the Chinese team in this game. No one would have thought that the loss of the ball would come so quickly... It was like a slap in the face, slapping everyone in the face..."
In his poetic and philosophical narrative, after a series of passes, the Chinese team has hit the football across the center line after a series of transmissions.
Zheng Zhi took the ball slightly to the right of the midfield.
The Dutch players did not come up to force him immediately. They seemed to be immersed in the joy just now, and did not come back to their senses, nor did they take the captain of the Chinese team in front of them seriously.
Zheng Zhi looked up at the situation in front of him, and then suddenly started a long pass!
The football flew over half the stadium and flew to the left side of the Dutch team's penalty area.
Because the height is too high, the Dutch central defenders in the penalty area cannot jump up and clear the ball, so they can only run back with the football.
The place is far away from the goal and the angle is a bit off. It is not a place that can directly threaten the goal. The Dutch defenders didn't take it too seriously.
But when their central defender, No. 3 Devre, turned around, saw He Ying of the Chinese team swing his left foot while running!
Judging from this posture, he was not going to stop the ball, but to shoot directly!
While running to the outside, He Ying swung his left foot and hit the football!
He didn't exert any force, and even pulled his strength a little while playing football.
After the football was drawn by him, it drew an arc and flew towards the goal.
Just beside He Ying, Dever, who was closest to him, suddenly shot the kick without even making any blocking moves. He just turned around in a conditioned reflex, as if he wanted to use his body to block the shot.
But how is this possible?
Dutch goalkeeper Cyrison soared into the air and raised his arm to try to volley the shot, but his speed was still a little slower. The football had already passed through his body and flew behind him, and then hit the lower edge of the crossbar and bounced to the ground. When it bounced up, it was blocked by the net at the top...
"Hey? Hey!!! Beautiful!!!" He Ping, who was still expressing his impermanence of fate just now, suddenly roared. Because there was no warning, his voice didn't even have a chance to warm up, and he roared directly. "Beautiful!!! Beautiful!!! He Ying!!! World Wave!!! Well-deserved world wave!!! Wonderful goal!! A key goal! The Chinese team equalized the score in just one minute!!"
Gong Lei was also very excited: "Good ball! Good ball! He Ying's shot was so beautiful! The direct shot with such a high difficulty can actually hit the goal frame, which is not easy! He pressed the football and controlled the strength... Although the angle is not exactly the same, this ball really reminded me of the flying immortals from Van Basten in the 1988 European Cup! It's amazing!"
The atmosphere at Bellario Stadium was ignited by He Ying's wonderful volley.
Chinese fans cheered, and even many neutral Brazilian fans cheered and applauded He Ying's beautiful shot.
Brazilian fans advocate offensive football and like beautiful football. He Ying's beautiful goal has won the love and support of many Brazilian fans for the Chinese team.
After scoring the goal, He Ying turned around and ran towards his teammates, calling everyone to come up to celebrate the goal.
Sun Pan also ran up with his arms wide open and participated in the collective celebration.
All the players of the Chinese team gathered together, and no one was away.
When they encounter difficulties, they unite and share the joys and sorrows.
When the celebration ended, He Ying pointed at Sun Pan, which was a response to Sun Pan's words just now.
Sun Pan smiled and said, "Without my provocation, can you make such a beautiful world wave? You have to thank me!"
He Ying slapped Sun Pan on the back hard: "Thank you!"
Sun Pan grinned in pain and ran back to his goal...
Chapter completed!
