Chapter 16 The Birth of Records
After 60 minutes of the second half, the rain actually stopped slowly, and as the sky gradually cleared, the visiting team Karama's poor performance seemed to be coming to an end, and they began to return to normal.
The home team Yucheng began to try every means to pull the opponent out, but the Syrians were like dead pigs that were not afraid of boiling water. No matter how verbal stimulation and temptation you are, they just couldn't stick to it;
Because they know that as long as they keep the current score of 0:3 to the end, they will still advance.
Yucheng seemed to have become lucky after the rain stopped. Not only was it difficult to create good opportunities under the opponent's intensive defense, but it was impossible to seize the opportunity that he had finally obtained;
After two or three consecutive waves of attacks failed, the Yucheng players were a little discouraged. The young players' bad habits of being unable to hold back began to rise, and their impatient emotions quickly spread throughout the team;
The Karapo players saw that they could do nothing about themselves, and became more and more confident, firmly implementing the dead-defense tactics arranged by the head coach during the break.
Time flew by minute by second, and soon arrived at the 85th minute of the second half.
While driving through the ball, Xu Te, the right forward of the Jade City team, was knocked down by an opponent's No. 13 player;
The referee stopped the game and awarded the home team a direct free kick.
Xu Te still fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time. The referee didn't even warn him if the opponent made such a rough foul;
The impatient Yucheng players could no longer hold back, and they rushed to the referee and put pressure on him further.
Seeing this scene, Mo Huaqiang was like an ant in a hot pan and could no longer calm down. The players were still too young, which was clearly a procrastination tactic for the opponent;
If you make a fuss like this, not only will the team's continuous attack rhythm be interrupted, but you will also spend a few more minutes of precious time in vain. This is very unworthy.
Mo Huaqiang rushed to the sidelines and whistled at the captain Lin Yuhuan despite the warning from the fourth official;
After nodding his forehead excitedly, he made a gesture of pressing his palms down, indicating that everyone should calm down and not be able to touch the opponent's way.
Lin Yuhuan, a Korean, has only been on the team for half a year and has only signed this year's short contract with the team, but Mo Huaqiang still chose to let him serve as the team captain;
In addition to his calm enough, more importantly, he is interested in his valuable experience in winning the AFC Champions League with the team;
In the season when Lin Yuhuan won the championship with Jeonbuk Hyundai two years ago, the final opponent was Alkalama from Syria.
As the captain, Lin Yuhuan, who is dedicated and responsible, played an important role in stabilizing the team's defense;
However, because his opponent is unwilling to fight, he has little test for the defense, and he has been doing nothing for most of his time, which is focused on defense;
But now it is approaching the end, and at the critical moment of chasing points, such a conflict broke out;
If the solution is not done well, it is very likely that it will be a failure. As the captain trusted by the coach and teammates, he must stand up.
He rushed into the crowd and pulled back the leaders. Lin Yuhuan, who was 1.84 meters tall, still looked very tall among a group of Yucheng players. In addition, his angry look still played a good deterrent effect;
Lin Yuhuan can't speak Chinese and is not very fluent in English. At this moment, she was excited and even whispered a lot of Korean words: "Oh, kai xig (small guys), what are you doing? I still have time, I'm so panicked. I'll set it all for me, just one ball, it's all done!"
The translator couldn't appear on the sidelines. None of the people present could understand what he was talking about, but looking at his glaring eyes, he probably guessed that he was reminding everyone to cheer up;
He was shocked by this strong momentum, and no one dared to express his objection, and everyone began to calm down slowly.
After everyone left, Lin Yuhuan quickly walked to Long Tian, patted his shoulder, and then said in broken English: "Long, there is not much time left. You have speed and physical strength. This side is weak. If you have the chance, you will rush and I will cover you for you."
Long Tian and Lin Yuhuan are both defenders and have a lot of contact in daily life. Although he still can't fully understand, he speaks English with a strong Korean accent;
But at least he understood the meaning of hoping that he could enter the forward boldly. Long Tian looked at him and nodded to express his understanding.
Karama head coach Mohamed Covid watched a good show and was screwed up by the Korean, and couldn't help but grit his teeth;
In the AFC Champions League two years ago, Covid was nominated as the AFC's best coach of the year early;
It was originally an award without any suspense, but because of the loss in the final, it was the change of ownership to Choi Kang-hee, the coach of the champion team Jeonbuk Hyundai;
At this point, he was in a match with the Koreans, and he was particularly excited when he met the Korean team. In the last game, he had worked hard against the Korean captain;
The home team destroyed the defense line led by Lin Yuhuan, and the strong performance of trampling this defense line to pieces also made Covid very satisfied. Deep in his heart, he also felt the pleasure of avenging the revenge he lost his crown two years ago.
Seeing Lin Yuhuan ruining his good things at this moment, Covid decided to use his ultimate move to completely cut off the delusions of these Chinese people;
He told the winger Hussein, who was sitting on the bench all the time, and after a few words in his ear, he patted his side shoulder trustfully.
Seeing Hussein who was about to play, Mo Huaqiang shook his head disapprovingly, and the cunning West Asians indeed fired smoke bombs;
He forced the number one killer to the bench and released it again at this moment, obviously he wanted to give the last knife;
After thinking about the current situation quickly, he quickly responded, replaced Feng Yuchen with the injured Xu Te, and also explained a few words in his ear.
With Hussein's appearance, the Karama team changed its previous unsustainable trend and returned to the normal state of waiting for an opportunity to counterattack. The midfield core Zahad had the direction of the goal and quickly got several good opportunities;
Hussein, who was very fast and physically steadily, swam to the right and passed twice in a row;
After hitting Xie Zhan's press on the left side of the penalty area of Yucheng, he shot two high-quality balls in succession. Qiu Li, who was focused, did not let the opponent succeed.
The fourth official had already raised a stoppage card on the sidelines, showing a "3", which means there was only the last three minutes of stoppage time left in the game;
The Jade City team thought that after Hussein came up, he would definitely give full play to his characteristics and put all his pressure on him, intending to score a goal, which would not only avoid the embarrassment of being shaved, but also completely cut off the home team's idea of advancing;
In fact, the Karamas' real idea is to delay, and use Hussein, who has played in the game later, to strengthen his ball control and speed up the consumption of time.
Mo Huaqiang was the first to realize this problem, and he anxiously signaled the players to ignore the 7th nonsense;
If you have the chance, you boldly hit the ball forward. The last chance is, if you don’t fight at this time, you really have no chance;
The Yucheng players woke up as if they were in a dream and wanted to move forward, but found that Hussein was firmly controlling the ball under his feet;
As soon as the middle was pressing, he quickly led the side. One person might not be able to grab his ball, which attracted more Yucheng players to surround him;
Hussein's ball protection was very stable and he played very well. Once the Chinese players' robbery was too big, he immediately fell to the ground and shouted loudly to protest. The helpless referee could only stop the game again and again.
In this way, more than two minutes passed after stoppage time. The referee was already looking at the watch frequently. The ball was still firmly under the feet of the Syrians. This should be the last attack in the game. Karama only had the last half minute left before the semi-finals.
Maiqizhao and Tianye forced Hussein to the side, and the Syrian was still controlling the ball, and left-back Xie Zhan quickly grabbed the ball, and was about to stab the ball away from his feet;
Although Hussein was still shocked, he matted the ball on the ground with his left toe, followed directly with his right foot and rubbed a half high ball into the middle. He flew towards Zahad, who was unguarded. The cooperation between the two was already familiar, and the tacit passing and running cooperation had reached the level of blind pass.
When Zahad was about to catch the ball, he did not expect a white figure to touch the ball half a step faster than him. The audience outside the court could see it very clearly. Yucheng captain Lin Yuhuan's robbery this time was suitable;
The opponent's passing motivation was accurately predicted and moved forward in advance, making great contributions to the team's regaining the ball. He is indeed an excellent Korean defender. His reading and game ability and awareness are role models worth learning from by Chinese teammates.
Lin Yuhuan did not stop the ball either. He observed the situation on the right in advance and did not even look up. He had a powerful side tackle to tackle the ball in the future;
When Long Tian on the right saw the captain moving forward, he also started trotting forward. The ball passed by even considered the advance amount given to the ball. This Korean captain is indeed not simple, and he was amazed in his heart.
Long Tian didn't have much time to think about anything else. He now only had one thought, which was to quickly drib the ball forward, form an incision as soon as possible, and seize the favorable opportunity to pass the ball out;
