66. Samba Fengyun (11)
When the ball flew from the front point, Marquinhos no longer underestimated the enemy, he looked at Li Yun to death, and the small movements in his hands were constant, not giving Li Yun a chance to rush up and jump at all, and then his 1.83 meter size burst out with amazing bounce power, a powerful header to the ball
In front of the arc of the penalty area, the Chinese Olympic team is Qin Minghao on the side, and the Brazilian side is Xiao Luan, these two players of about the same height, the latter has the upper hand in this confrontation.
In the face of the incoming ball, Luan Jr. kicked the ball to the left first.
Xiao Luan's pass was carried out under Qin Minghao's close confrontation, the ball was not strong enough, high and floating, and it could be said that the quality was very poor, but the person who received the ball was Neymar.
When the ball fell high from the air, the very difficult pass became a smooth road at Neymar's feet, and when he unloaded the ball steadily, he also gave the ball a small forward force, and the ball just fell in the area of less than half a meter from Neymar, so that Neymar could make the next move very comfortably when he rushed up.
Thanks to Neymar's extraordinary ball sense and superb stopping skills, although Xiang Tiange, who stayed on the right side of the backfield defense, rushed over to defend for the first time, Neymar continued to change the rhythm at his feet, but the speed did not decrease at all, after a few consecutive shakes, he had almost lost his center of gravity, and Xiang Tiange, who lost patience, chose to stretch out his legs to intercept, but Neymar was waiting for him, he changed direction and stepped over Xiang Tiange's legs at the same time, passing the opponent. Now it's Brazil's turn to fight back.
After Xiang Tiange was passed, the Chinese Olympic team, which invested a lot of manpower in the corner kick attack, now has only two central defenders Du Zhenyu and Ma Yongli in the backfield, and Li Yun is still in the penalty area, and Qi Ming and Xu Mingyu, who can catch up, are desperately running back.
Neymar with the ball accelerated again after passing Xiang Tiange, Du Zhenyu could only defend hard, at this time he was tall, the center of gravity was high, and the weakness of turning slowly was infinitely magnified.
Du Zhenyu, who originally wanted to reach out to pull Neymar, suddenly thought that he still had a yellow card, he hesitated, and just as he hesitated, Neymar had already rushed into the penalty area with the ball.
Seeing Neymar coming, Zengcheng chose to abandon the goal, and Ma Yongli also rushed over to block the angle of Neymar's shot at the far post, hoping to force Neymar to play the near corner of Zengcheng's frontal defense.
But Neymar's next action made the efforts of the two come to naught, in the face of Zengcheng who rushed over, Neymar in the high-speed dribble made a hidden and chic shot at his feet, and the football passed Zengcheng's head and slowly fell into the net.
As if 100 per cent sure that the volley would be able to score, Neymar opened his arms and turned to run towards Gabriel Jesus, who had already rushed to the vicinity of the penalty area.
After looking back and seeing that the football had been scored, Neymar happily jumped on Gabriel Jesus to celebrate the hard-earned goal.
The Maracanã Stadium was transformed into a sea of joy, with Brazilian fans singing and dancing excitedly, and Neymar's name resounding throughout the stadium.
Chen Jiangfeng and Chen's father in front of the TV could only sigh and shake their heads at this time, the ability of a world-class player like Neymar is too strong, the defenders of the National Olympic team can't prevent it, and when the gap in hard power is too big, the result is to lose the ball.
Especially when the previous round of onslaught on the side of the national Olympic team gave the fans great hope, this goal was a little unacceptable.
Brazil got a taste of counter-attacking after the goal, they have a lot of experience and know that when a team is only one goal down, they are most motivated to equalise.
Sure enough, after the kick-off, the Chinese team pressed all the formations, leaving three central defenders on the side at halftime, and for a while the Chinese team became a siege to the Brazilian team.
But once the attack on the side of the national Olympic team failed, the horror of Brazil's counterattack came out.
In the 44th minute of the first half, Qin Minghao passed the ball to Zou Weijia, who had his back to the goal and wanted to make the pass back, but Rodrigo Caio behind him took the first kick and poked the ball out.
Augusto, who was in the midfield, received the ball and drove it to the right with a big kick, Gabriel Barbosa cut in from the side at high speed, and when the ball was about to go out of the sideline, he jumped up and stopped the ball in bounds with his chest.
As soon as Gabriel Barbosa received the ball, Luan Jr. and Wallace came to pick him up on the Brazilian side, and then after a quick pass from these three people in a row, Luan Jr. made a beautiful straight stop, and Jesus also responded and inserted it into the penalty area.
Fortunately, Zengcheng's attention was also very concentrated, and he rushed out in time, fell to the ground and held the ball in his arms, and Jesus almost took a step to hold the ball.
After being counterattacked by the Brazilian team again, the national Olympic team did not dare to press on all fronts, strengthened the number of midfielders, and at the end of the first half, the physical fitness did not support the players to rush again, and the situation on the field became calm.
Two minutes later, the first half ended with the Brazilians satisfied, going into the break with a 1-0 scoreline.
Rick Link looked at the players who were still panting, and he was also helpless, the gap between the strength of the two sides was too big, and the opponent was 100% into the game, the team's chances were really not many, and the first thing to do now was to stabilize the back line and not let Brazil break through their own defense at will.
"At dawn in the second half, Du, you take a break. Rick Link first solved the hidden dangers of the defensive line, and Du Zhenyu, who had a yellow card, became the target of the Brazilian team's attack.
Then Rick Link started to cheer the players on: "Yes, now we're behind. The opponent is strong. But it's not like we don't have a chance. In the last game, I told you, 1:0 is the least safe scoreline. The same applies to Brazil. ”
'They attacked us in the half and they were one goal ahead of us. From set-pieces and corners, we almost got the back of the net. Rick Link took out the only bright spot of the first half of the national Olympic team, "So, as long as we hold on and then work on the set-piece, it is not impossible to equalize or even overtake." Do you have faith?"
"Yes!"
Although the boys of the national Olympic team are young, they are basically veterans of the game, and they are still very tenacious.
As the captain, Li Yun also responded with a few words: "What Mr. Head Coach said just now is very right. Brazil are not without weaknesses, they have a lot of pressure than us, as long as we hold on for a second, they rush for a second and wear them out to the end. ”
At the start of the second half, Brazil began to play with pressure again, and the Olympic team fell into the same situation again as the first half began, but the arrangement of midfielder Rick Link made the players foresee the current situation.
After Dawn came on the field, the players on the side of the national Olympic team strengthened their position to fill his position, after all, Neymar played here, and he was too dangerous.
With a more targeted arrangement, although the Olympic side played ugly, it did not give the Brazilian team too many threatening shooting opportunities. From more than 20 minutes after the start of the second half, the national Olympic team held the score of 1:0.
Of course, it is not without hidden dangers, in this difficult more than 20 minutes, Xu Mingyu and Ma Yongli both received yellow cards, leaving a lot of hidden dangers to the defense.
However, now the Olympic team can take a breather, because the Brazilian team, which has been frantically pressing for more than 20 minutes, has also slowed down the tempo.
Compared with the first half, the national Olympic team learned a lesson, even if the Brazilian team retreated from the formation, Qi Ming and Xu Mingyu were at most involved in the attack, and always left one person in the back to defend.
The national Olympic team's style of play is safe, and the threat of attack is needless to say, the Brazilian side Wallace and Augusto's double back combination basically curbed most of the national Olympic team's attack, even if a few passes can hit the back of the back, Brazil's double central defenders are also easy to dissolve these passes.
The set-pieces and corners that Rick Link hoped for did not materialize.
When the national Olympic team was still looking for an opportunity to be patient, the Brazilian team suddenly picked up speed again after slowing down the pace for a few minutes.
For the acceleration of the Brazilian team, the national Olympic team is really unprepared, and after a long period of tension on the court, it is a very technical job to want to be nervous again, and the Brazilian side is obviously more experienced and talented in this regard.
In the 35th minute of the second half, Gabriel Barbosa, who returned from the front line to the midfield to get the ball, suddenly accelerated, and the other three Brazilian frontcourt players also understood the high-speed insertion and running.
Xu Mingyu, who was carrying a yellow card, did not dare to foul behind his back after failing to intercept Barbosa, and could only watch the opponent burst into the 30-meter area.
At this time, Neymar, who was the biggest threat to Brazil, ran from the left to the middle, while Luan Jr. and Gabriel Jesus ran along the flanks from left to right.
Seeing Neymar from the middle, Qi Ming and Ma Yongli both ran over to defend him, and at the same time, Li Yun in the middle also paid attention to Neymar.
As a result, Barbosa did not force the ball into the middle, but distributed the ball to the right, and Jesus, after receiving the ball, cut into the box along the right penalty line.
Although Ding Huaiyi, who came back, tried hard to squeeze Jesus to the bottom line, he still failed to interfere with the opponent's dribbling, and finally when he was about to go out of the bottom line, Jesus passed the ball.
Because Jesus's internal cut is a great threat, including Li Yun, Zengcheng has put the center of gravity of the defense towards him, but when Jesus crosses the ball, no player from the National Olympic team touches the ball, and Xiao Luan, who has been outflanked in place on the left side, easily hit the empty goal.
The Brazilian team relied on the exquisite cooperation of four people in the front court to score another goal, and the national Olympic team fell behind by two goals.
"Alas. When the Chinese team fell behind by one goal, Chen Jiangfeng still held the luck hope that he could equalize in his heart, and now after falling behind by two goals, he finally knew that this was an extravagant hope, "These few people in Brazil are too powerful to prevent." ”
"No way. Dad Chen was also depressed and smoking a cigarette, looking listless.
Brazil's goal once again ignited the enthusiasm of the Brazilian fans in the stands, perhaps because Rio de Janeiro is on the Atlantic Ocean, and the Atlantic waves in front of Copacabana Beach inspired the fans, and the atmosphere of the stadium was reached by waves of people rising from the stands.
Corresponding to the Brazilian fans is the slightly bitter expressions of the Chinese fans, as well as the demeanor of some lonely Chinese players on the field.
"It doesn't matter. Two balls only. As the captain, Li Yun also sensed the mentality of his teammates, and he began to cheer up the players, "There is still time, we still have a chance." ”
After kicking off again, the national Olympic team also gave up the previous slightly conservative approach, and simply put all their attention into attacking, losing two goals is a loss, losing three is also a loss, and if you can score one, you can also save some face.
The Brazilian team, which already had two goals in hand, also began to slowly wrestle with the National Olympic team, and they fought the counterattack of the Chinese team with peace of mind.
In the 39th minute of the second half, the Brazilian team's defense intercepted successfully, and a long pass from Augusto accurately found Neymar in the front, and after he got rid of it continuously, he burst into the penalty area, Li Yun had no choice but to put his hand on Neymar's shoulder, and the latter was knocked down with a touch.
The referee came over and gave Li Yun a yellow card, and then awarded a penalty to Brazil.
Although the players of the national Olympic team went up to argue, they did not change the will of the referee, and Neymar easily scored a penalty to expand the score to 3:0.
The goal also announced that the Brazilian team had won the game.
Brazil then made substitutions to prepare for the final, with Gabriel Jesus, Augusto and Barbosa all substituted and the game went into stoppage time.
The players of the national Olympic team are still working hard for a goal.
In the second minute of stoppage time, a somewhat sloppy Brazil finally gave China a chance to shoot, Qin Minghao's long-range shot from outside the box forced Viwalton to save the ball off the line, and China got a rare corner.
The boys of the national Olympic team who decided to fight for honor also rushed to the penalty area of the Brazilian team.
Ding Huaiyi's corner kick showed a tactical change again, he did not transfer the ball into the penalty area, but played a tactical corner, Xu Mingyu, who came to answer, played a two-on-one cooperation, and passed the seca.
Rodrigo Caio hurriedly came over to defend Ding Huaiyi, who also completely put down his burden at this time, and suddenly used the action of flicking the tail of the bull near the bottom line, which Rodrigo Caio was completely caught off guard, allowing Ding Huaiyi to enter the penalty area all the way along the bottom line, and then he made an inverted triangle pass.
Zou Weijia in the penalty area was also lucky, he happened to be on the line where the football rolled, and he subconsciously blocked it with his foot in the face of the incoming ball, and the ball quickly passed between the legs of a Brazilian player and flew straight to the goal.
Viwalton's vision was blocked, and there was no time to make a save, and the ball flew straight into the net, and the Olympic team pulled a goal back in stoppage time.
"yes!" Chen Jiangfeng, who had been depressed for a whole time, jumped up excitedly, "Beautiful! Kick like this sooner. ”
"Yes, yes. Dad Chen also grinned and said, "Finally, I haven't been shaved head, so it's good to be able to score a good one." ”u
