Chapter 76: World-class passing, European-class movement, and shooting
Keiyu Honda, who currently plays for the CSKA Russians, has never fought with Yang Muge, and he has rarely heard of Yang Muge. Because Yang Muge has not participated in the European game, he only started to play for Schalke 04's first team last season.
Although Keiyuki Honda played in the distant Super League, he had already participated in the Champions League.
When he was transferring to CSKA, the first official game he played on behalf of the team was the Champions League quarterfinals.
He scored a goal in his second Champions League match, helping CSKA reverse his opponent and advance to the quarterfinals.
Such performance is much better than Yang Muge.
It is normal for him to look down on Yang Muge.
At this time, he thought of what Shinji Kagawa said to him.
Don't underestimate him, otherwise you will be in trouble.
Will I be in trouble?
This made Keiyu Honda careless at the beginning, but now this made him angry.
I want to see who is unlucky for us!
※※※
Keiyu Honda wanted to fight against Yang Muge, but Yang Muge's eyes were not the only one. As the only midfielder who specialized in defense in this game, not only Keiyu Honda, but also Shinji Kagawa and others.
Of course, Zhou Yi will also help him while defending, and will not let him fight alone.
The two have very tacit cooperation experience in the National Olympic Team, and their cooperation complements each other.
After Yang Muge appeared, the Japanese team's offense gradually became less threatening than the first half. The Chinese team finally had more energy to consider the offense.
But he was in a normal state today. His partner and Gao Lin did not threaten the Japanese team's defense line. Zhou Yi could pass the ball over, and they could waste it.
Whenever they miss some opportunities, Chinese fans in front of the TV and on the Internet will become anxious and uneasy.
Wasting opportunities will be retribution!
Many fans also felt strange, why did He Ying, who blocked the gods and killed the gods in the Olympics, perform so badly today?
In the 58th minute of the game, Shinji Kagawa was stuck by Yang Muge when he was taking the ball forward in the midfield. Then Yang Muge quickly poked the ball off. While poking the ball, he quickly jumped up to avoid Shinji Kagawa, and turned around and controlled the football again!
"Good ball, Yang Muge's steals are very clean and neat!"
Liu Hong was still cheering, and Yang Muge made a fake move to pass the ball. Keiyu Honda was fooled and flashed to the side, but he dribbled the ball and rushed forward with determination!
It crossed the center line in an instant!
This scared the Japanese team very much because no one expected that Yang Muge would dribble the ball forward. His appearance was exactly the defensive corner of the Japanese team!
The stress response caused Japanese players to rush up to surround Yang Muge.
Endo and Makoto Hasegawa came up from the front and side.
Faced with such an interception, Yang Muge skillfully poked the ball with his right toe and passed it out from the middle of the two, and the ball fell to the unguarded Zhou Yi!
How could Zhou Yi be left without a guard?
Because after he pulled to the side, he only had to face one person's defense, and Hasegawa Makoto, who was originally beside him, was attracted by Yang Muge, so no one cared about Zhou Yi!
"Good ball! Zhou Yi!" A wave of cheers and boos sounded in the Tokyo National Arena, which was sent by fans of China and Japan at the same time.
After receiving the ball, Zhou Yi did not pass the ball, but decisively drove the ball forward and rushed to the Japanese team's penalty area.
After passing the ball, Yang Muge rushed forward and did not stay behind. Because of his forward run, the Japanese defensive players could not chase Zhou Yi, because if Zhou Yi passed the football back to Yang Muge, Yang Muge would be more center-oriented than Zhou Yi, and he could directly shoot!
Endo Masato quickly chased Zhou Yi, while Hasegawa Masato ran to chase Yang Muge.
At the same time, on the forward line, He Ying quickly started and went to the center of the four defenders of the Japanese team.
Originally, the Japanese central defender Masahiko Ino, who was in front of him, was attracted to the side by Zhou Yi's dribbling breakthrough. A larger gap appeared between the two central defenders than before, and He Ying decisively accelerated into this gap.
Zhou Yi, who had been dribbling the ball, also saw He Ying's running position, so he raised his ankle and pushed the football out like a golf putt.
The football rolls forward quickly against the turf!
When Masahiko Ino saw that Zhou Yi was actually passing the football behind him. Although he could not see the situation behind him, his experience told him that he must have time. So he braked suddenly and rushed forward with his body inertia. He could only drag his right leg behind, hoping to block the football.
But football passed by his right foot, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground!
"Ahhhhh! Dangerous-!" the Japanese narrator exclaimed.
"Miracle pass! He Ying! Single shot!!" Liu Hong almost stood up in the commentary seat, and he shouted excitedly. This is the best offensive opportunity the Chinese team has obtained in this game!
The Chinese fans in front of the TV also became nervous, staring at the TV screen, waiting for everything that was about to happen next.
When He Ying broke into the penalty area, he used his body and running position to block another Japanese central defender, Yoshida Ma, and then stretched out his foot to catch the ball. He could feel that Yoshida Ma, who was behind him, was not honest, so he planned to use an emergency stop to shake the opponent away, and also knocked down the goalkeeper Kawashima Akihiro who was attacking.
So after receiving the ball, he did not shoot the ball immediately, but instead used the inside of his right foot to hit the ball from behind the left foot that supported his body, and then stopped and changed direction quickly.
This is a very ordinary fake move and it is not too difficult.
But when He Ying splashed with his right foot, he did not estimate the rolling speed of the ball. When he planned to do this, the football rolled forward a little. If he splashed like this, he would not be able to touch the football. But he had already stopped urgently. He could only wave his right foot again to detonate the football from his body.
This accident slowed his movements a little.
In the penalty area, in front of the goal, if someone defends closely, even if you are half a second slow, it may lead to a completely different final result.
Ma Yoshida was indeed shaken by his first emergency stop and spike. If He Ying could dunk smoothly, he would face a larger shooting angle, and Ma Yoshida would have no choice.
But unfortunately, he didn't touch the ball, so the football continued to roll forward. Yoshida Ma, who was knocked down, fell to the ground and flew away, just in front of the football. Yoshida Ma, who did not give up defense, quickly stretched out his foot to poke the ball, and He Ying's second dunk hit the football on him...
Yoshida Ma was also lying on the ground and swept his legs to compete with He Ying. No matter how He Ying played the ball, he couldn't take the football out of his control. Finally, goalkeeper Kawashima Nagato possessed him and grabbed the football, and then hugged it firmly in his arms.
He Ying never had a chance to shoot again...
"Oh-ah--!" Liu Hong shouted in a long voice, expressing his regret.
He Ying was also very depressed. He stood in the penalty area, put his hands on his hips, and looked up at the sky. Japanese goalkeeper Kawashima Nagaki rushed forward with the football behind him, and then threw the football out directly. The Japanese team launched a quick counterattack.
Yang Muge retreated when He Ying failed to set the football in the first attempt, so the Japanese team's counterattack did not really threaten the Chinese team's goal.
But everyone doesn't care about this, everyone is discussing He Ying's single shot just now.
"Zhou Yi's straight pass is world-class, and it can't be better. He Ying's unballed running position is also European-level, but even the spike is like a Chinese Super League! It's so bad!" Some fans complained angrily on the Internet.
"Play it directly! He Ying's advantage of handling this ball is not confident enough!"
"What's wrong with He Ying?"
Liu Hong was also shaking his head: "Actually, He Ying can shoot directly. If he is worried about the goalkeeper blocking the angle, he can choose to shoot... It's a pity that he missed this opportunity! The Chinese team missed the great opportunity to equalize the score! And such a good single shot was not scored, which is also a blow to the morale of the Chinese team..."
※※※
After Zhou Yi passed the ball, he witnessed He Ying's entire process of receiving the ball from the run and finally missing a single shot. His views may be a little different from others.
He thought it was absolutely fine for He Ying to choose to detonate the ball and change direction, but He Ying did not handle the ball well when he spiked. That was a technical mistake and had nothing to do with his choice.
But why did He Ying have such a problem?
Because he has not played a formal game since the Olympics, and his control over football has decreased in high-intensity and fierce confrontation... In layman's terms, it is time for the ball to feel worse than the condition.
This is the pot of choosing to stay in Barcelona...
He Ying chose to spike the ball, but there was a problem with his choice to stay in Barcelona.
But at this time, Zhou Yi would definitely not be able to yell at He Ying: "Who told you not to listen to me and insist on staying in Barcelona, which cannot play in the game?"
He could only shout He Ying's name and let him return to his soul: "He Ying! He Ying!!"
After successfully calling He Ying around, he gave He Ying a thumbs up: "It's beautifully fucked!"
He didn't lie. He Ying's running position was indeed very beautiful. The empty space was not very obvious at the beginning, but He Ying keenly noticed it and ran in. Although he missed the single shot, if He Ying didn't run anywhere, even the single shot wouldn't appear.
How could He Ying not know that Zhou Yi was comforting him? He knew his problem just now. No matter how beautiful his previous running was, as a forward, it was his responsibility to not score this goal.
And he knew in his heart why he made that mistake...
His condition has always been average in this game because he has not played a formal game in a month.
While everyone else played two or three rounds of the league, he hadn't played in a minute, so the gap was huge.
He also fought at the Olympics, and he faced Yoshida Ma in the Olympics, but today he did not get rid of the other party...
When he had not made the roster list for three consecutive rounds of the league, he was still comforting himself and encouraging himself. As long as he trained hard, opportunities would always come.
But now he was a little worried. Even if the opportunity came, could he seize it?
You know, the top ten games are already the highest-level competition in Asia, but they still cannot be compared with the La Liga...
