Chapter 101 is changing
While Chinese fans are looking forward to a bright future, the game has long resumed.
Australia, who was two goals behind, was unwilling to accept the failure, hoping to equalize the score in the remaining twenty minutes.
They launched an offensive against the Chinese team goal regardless of everything.
Faced with Australia's pounce, the Chinese team chose to recover the defense at all levels. Make full use of the defense line formed by Zhou Yi, Yang Muge, Guo Nu, Sun Pan and others to resist Australia's attack.
At the same time, Gao Hongbo also made substitution adjustments, replacing forward Gao Lin with midfielder Yang Hao, further strengthening the midfield defense. There was only one He Ying in front.
He Ying, who has comprehensive technical ability and outstanding speed, is indeed the most suitable candidate for such defensive counterattack. He has strong individual combat ability and does not require the support and cooperation of his teammates. He can still dribble the ball directly into Huanglong. Even if he cannot shoot, he can control the football at his feet as long as possible to consume the game time and destroy the opponent's fighting spirit.
Of course, the premise of all this is that He Ying is in good condition. If he is in bad condition, he will lose the ball and then he will have no way to play any role.
Fortunately, He Ying is in an amazing state of condition today.
After scoring two goals, he can really pass, lead, break and shoot. It's really not possible. He can still protect the football for nearly ten seconds. Anyway, he is like a troublemaker in the frontcourt, constantly causing trouble for Australia's defense, making them unable to attack with all their strength.
In this case, Australia can only choose the simplest offensive method, which is to cross from the wing.
However, this set of things does not pose a great threat to the Chinese team's defense.
In addition to Guo Nu, the Chinese team also has a goalkeeper Sun Pan with a large range of activities. Guo Nu's shortcomings in height were compensated by Sun Pan's attack from his arms in his deep jump.
On several occasions, Australia made a cross from the wing, and as long as the goal was slightly closer, it was picked by Sun Pan amid his loud roar of "I'll do it"...
If you don’t go to the two sides and want to go to the middle to organize the attack, you will face the middle defense line composed of Zhou Yi, Yang Muge, Yang Hao and others.
It is really difficult to penetrate this line of defense and is extremely inefficient.
Once the ball possession falls to the Chinese team, it will be Australia's nightmare. Under the leadership of Zhou Yi, the entire Chinese team, including goalkeeper Sun Pan, will participate in the "downward foot" that makes them hate deeply.
The image of the Chinese fans has never been very good, thinking that the players are not enterprising and have no idea of offense. However, since Barcelona succeeded, everyone has now much more acceptance of this kind of back and forth transmission in the midfield and backcourt.
But the most important thing is the current Chinese team. The back-up is their tactic of spending time while having the advantage. Standing at the departure of Chinese fans, they do not care whether this is negative or ugly. As long as it can be beneficial to win the game, they all support it.
So when the Chinese team was down, cheers sounded in the stands of Zhuque Stadium. Every time the Chinese team successfully passed it, the cheers sounded, which continued until the Chinese team ended the downward foot, or the ball ownership changed hands.
To be honest, from a neutral standpoint, the Chinese team is very rogue in playing like this, just using their superior ball control ability to delay time.
But the Chinese team is the representative of Chinese national football and only needs to be responsible for Chinese fans. How many Chinese fans will stand on a "neutral" position when playing again in the national team? So it is meaningless to consider what neutral people's reactions are.
Who says that the opponent's pass and control ability is not as good as that of the Chinese team?
Australia, whose passing and control skills are not as good as the Chinese team, was a little angry in the end, and his movements became bigger and bigger in the pressing.
Two Australian players received yellow cards within five minutes, one was eaten on Zhou Yi and the other was eaten on He Ying.
It is normal to foul Zhou Yi, because he is the core of the Chinese team's pass-by and control style.
He Ying's yellow card was because he brought the football to Australia's half and stayed away from the Chinese penalty area. He then had no chance to directly threaten the Australian goal. He didn't come up to pick up his teammates, so he simply brought the football to the corner flag and then protected the football blatantly delayed the time.
This is completely in line with the rules. If he can protect the football until the end of the game, the referee will not be able to call him a foul. Football is different from basketball. Basketball has a 24-second offensive rule, and there is a limit that it cannot stay in the opponent's basket for more than three seconds. There is also an offensive player who must pass, shoot, or dribble within five seconds while being tightly defended.
In short, basketball players cannot hold the football in both hands and keep moving on the court to protect the ball.
But football does not have such regulations.
Therefore, when it is necessary to delay time, you can often see attacking players leading the football to the opponent's corner flag area and then protecting the football from motionless.
If the defense cannot stop the ball by using conventional means, it will definitely not watch the offensive players continue to be "rogue". They often take fouls to restore the game.
He Ying gave an Australian player a yellow card.
With twenty minutes left in the game, the Chinese team started to waste time like this. It can be said that the Chinese team played negatively, but this is a normal tactic to pursue victory. On the side of Chinese team supporters, no one will blame them. Only the Australian commentator kept protesting loudly: "The Chinese team has no sports ethics, and this negative attitude makes the game simply unappreciative!"
Nonsense, as an Australian, of course I hope the Chinese team can push them out and play against them. It would be better if even the central defender has pushed the center line and the goalkeeper has also rushed out of the penalty area, so that Australia can directly play empty goals. But if the Chinese team really attacks actively, it will definitely not receive positive comments from the "brave gentleman", but can only be scolded for "water in the mind".
This is not the time to discuss the Olympic spirit. It is the bottom line that you can win and get three points.
Faced with the aggressive actions of Australian players, Chinese players fell to the ground frequently, and the whistle of referee Hassan kept ringing, and the game was always interrupted. This game was not good at all, but Chinese fans don’t care about this, it doesn’t matter whether they look good or not, just win.
Moreover, the Xi'an fans at the scene didn't care about the scene. As long as the Chinese players had physical contact with the Australian players and fell to the ground, the deafening "Your Mom" would sound in the stands. The scene was really spectacular.
Zhou Yi fell the most, on the one hand, because he was violated by Australian players the most, and on the other hand, because his body was not strong enough, and he was indeed prone to lose balance in the opponent's deliberate collision and then fell to the ground.
However, although his fall was exaggerated and frightened, he was actually not very hurt because he was very good at protecting himself.
Of course, his self-protection fell into the eyes of Australian players and supporters, and it was a naked "fake fall".
Almost every time, the commentator of Australian TV station angrily criticized Zhou Yi as a despicable clown who fell down and was a representative of corruption in sports and morality.
But no matter how angry he accuses him, it cannot change the reality that Australian players do not have the advantage in the scene.
Before this game, many Australian fans may still have the impression of Chinese football in the past, the weak and frail history of Chinese football. For the Chinese team won the runner-up in the Asian Cup, they would rather believe that it was the Chinese team's luck. For the Chinese Olympic team won the gold medal at the Olympics, they would rather believe that it was a useless game that the world's football power did not pay attention to. At the same time, the Chinese must have taken drugs.
They refused to accept the fact that the Chinese team had gradually become stronger, so the stubborn, arrogant and arrogant Australians were completely ruined in this game.
Of course, the diehards will not admit this just because of this game.
They also think that the reason why the Chinese team can win at home is because of the referee's help, otherwise there would have been so many fake falls that would have been sent off. Look at Hassan's penalty in this game, it is obviously biased towards the Chinese team. Isn't China rich now? They must have spent a lot of money to bribe the entire referee team, allowing them to repeatedly make penalty against the Chinese team in the game.
This speculation really made Australian fans very unhappy. After China's rise, it surpassed Japan in terms of total economic output and became the second in the world, which made many developed countries feel unhappy about China, and Australia is also among them. In Australia, the ugliness and discrimination against China have a public opinion basis.
Football is a war without gunpowder, which can often amplify this kind of hostility among the people.
Finally, when the referee Hassan blew the whistle to the end of the game, the Chinese team defeated Australia 2-0 at home. While scoring a three-pointer, they also kicked Australia to hell.
The Suzaku Stadium transformed from a crater into a sea of joy.
Australian fans gritted their teeth and looked forward to the game facing the Chinese team after Australia returned to home court. They will definitely teach the Chinese people to be good on their own territory. At that time, there will be no West Asia Black Side to help the Chinese team! (To be continued.)
