Chapter 526: Chinese team, two red cards
"Okay, the game between the two teams has begun, and the Japanese coach serves first. β
"Beautiful, Yu Dabao steals. β
"Unfortunately, my teammates didn't follow and the ball was back on Japan's side. β
At the beginning of the game, the two CCTV hosts were a little excited.
"Xu Bing, do you feel it, in these few games, our national football players have accumulated a lot of experience. β
"Yes, Dabao's break just now, if it was before, our national football players couldn't do it at all. It's not that there is no technology, but I don't dare to think about it. β
"That's right, that's the benefit of playing against the biggest teams in the world. β
"I really hope that our national team can play a few more games against the world's biggest players. β
Both sighed.
These days, the benefits of the national football team playing with the international giants are also obvious, even if they were pressed and beaten by the Netherlands and Chile national teams, but when they met Japan, an opponent that was not particularly different, the strength of the national football players exploded.
"Wonderful. β
"Come on, Chinese team. β
"Good job, hahaha, that's how it hits. β
Seeing the national football players and the players of the Japanese team constantly fighting in the midfield, without a trace of backwardness, many fans were excited.
You must know that when the Chinese team met the Japanese team before, most of them were defensive.
Even if there is a slight attack, it is still cowering, and there is no fighting spirit.
But now, although the Chinese team is not necessarily stronger than the Japanese team, this vindictiveness has made many fans shine.
In particular, as the Chinese team absorbs more experience, the Chinese team's performance on the field has become more and more exciting for fans.
This is also reflected in the fact that the Chinese team will play a few wonderful attacks from time to time, which makes the Japanese team embarrassed.
However, the Japanese team is very strong.
This is evident from the fact that they were able to win against Chile.
And they have one point more points than the Chinese team, and the whole game is not impatient, but they don't let the Chinese team take too much advantage.
Of course, the national football team knows that the Japanese team is waiting.
Wait for the Netherlands to finish the game with Chile.
If Chile loses to the Netherlands, then Japan will have too much of an advantage.
Even if they don't attack in the second half and defend desperately, the Japanese team can also advance.
Again, not only the Japanese team, but also the Chinese team is waiting.
I don't know if Chile loses or not, but the Chinese team knows that once the Chilean team loses or wins, the Japanese team's style of play will inevitably change.
In the first half, both teams had their own attack and defense, but did not score.
Mo Bai also seemed bored.
Relative to the Netherlands, Chile, Japan had just three shots in the first half today, and only one on target.
This also makes Mo Bai not much use.
However, Mo Bai knew that the second half was the beginning of the real battle between the two teams.
"Is the Netherlands done with Chile?"
"Five minutes to go, wait a minute. β
"At the moment, the score of the two teams is 0:0, and it is not visible for the time being. β
Chile and the Netherlands are both top-notch teams.
Although the Dutch team is stronger overall, anything can happen on the football field.
Just like Japan, Chile was clearly stronger than Japan, but also lost to Japan.
Of course, the strength of the Japanese team is actually very good.
"Hehe, don't worry, the Japanese team is more anxious than us. β
Mo Bai said with a smile.
"Huh?"
"Mo Bai, what do you say?"
"How can I say that the Japanese team has only three points now, and it is not safe to qualify. Even if Chile loses to the Netherlands, Japan may not be able to qualify. And if Chile wins against the Netherlands, I'm sure they'll pick and choose their strategy. β
At this time, Lippi also stepped forward: "Yes, Mo Bai is right. If Chile wins against the Netherlands, then Japan will have to win us if they want to qualify. With our current strength, I can say that we are on par with Japan. If they change their style of play in the second half, that's our chance. Of course, if Chile doesn't win against the Netherlands, boys, in the second half, everyone will give me a crazy attack. Remember, we're no worse than Japan and we don't necessarily have to score goals in the World Cup. β
So far, the Chinese team has never scored a single goal in the World Cup.
Even if the Chinese team entered the World Cup last time, it is a pity that it did not score a single goal.
"Coach Lippi, don't worry, this time, we will shoot him hard. β
Everyone clenched their fists, and they were sincere.
"Good news. β
"Good news. β
Five minutes later, the assistant coach came with the news: "The Netherlands lost to Chile in an upset. β
"Great. β
Hearing the news, the players in the locker room cheered.
Similarly, when this news was conveyed to all fans across the country by the two CCTV hosts, countless fans also applauded and celebrated.
"Hahaha, little Japan, I didn't expect it, the Dutch team lost. β
"You still want to draw and qualify, dreaming. β
"If you want to play a turtle defense, I'm sorry, you don't have this chance. β
In the first half, the Japanese team knew that they were in a good situation, and did not take a large attack, but focused on defense.
This also left the Chinese team without much chance.
However, things changed in the second half when Chile won against the Netherlands.
If the Japanese team still plays like they did in the first half, it will definitely not be possible for the Japanese team to qualify.
And if the Japanese team starts to attack with all its might, then the opportunity for the Chinese team will come.
"Damn, how did the Netherlands lose?"
"Holland, how can you be like this, aren't you the uncrowned king, how can even Chile lose. β
"I'll go, the Japanese team didn't go well in the second half. β
Some fans of the Japanese team were a little depressed.
According to the current score, the Netherlands has one loss, one win and one draw, accumulating 4 points.
Chile has 1 loss, 1 win and 1 draw, accumulating 4 points.
The Chinese team has two games and two draws, accumulating 2 points.
Japan currently have 3 points.
If the Chinese team draws, it will have to fight with the Netherlands and Chile on goal difference.
But it's a pity that the Netherlands defeated Japan 3:0 before, which means that the Japanese team will be out even if it draws with the Chinese team.
The only chance is to win against the Chinese team.
Of course, if the Chinese team wins against Japan and accumulates 5 points, it will also qualify.
"Well, now we just have to attack with all our might. β
Seeing Chile win against the Netherlands, the head coach of the Japanese team instructed in the locker room.
"Don't worry, Coach, we've wanted to attack for a long time. β
"Yes, coach, we're going to get all three points. β
The Japanese players assured the manager.
After a short break, the second half started again.
As with the previous predictions, the Japanese team immediately changed their style of play at the beginning of the second half.
The original 4 guards became 3 guards. The original 2 strikers have also become 4 forwards.
334 formation.
It's a very aggressive formation.
In the 10 minutes before the start of the second half, the Chinese team was once beaten by the intensive attack of the Japanese team.
It's just that after these 10 minutes, the Chinese team calmed down again.
"The Chinese team stabilized. β
"Well, the Japanese team also wanted to use their experience to catch the national football team off guard, but they didn't expect the national football players to react so quickly and stabilize all of a sudden. β
"Yes, this is still related to the previous matches against major teams, which also makes the national football team more experienced. Even if you encounter some unfavorable situations, you can resolve them more calmly. β
The two hosts went from being nervous at the beginning to slowly becoming relaxed.
Seeing that the Chinese team has adapted to the rhythm of the Japanese team, the smiles of the two hosts gradually appeared.
"Blessed are we fans. β
"This is our most promising Chinese team. β
"Yes, it is extremely gratifying to see the rapid growth of the Chinese team. β
"Hehe, I think, seeing the current performance of the Chinese team, we can no longer see the voice of scolding the national football team on the Internet. β
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Looking back on the past, the Chinese team was not scolded for playing any time.
Don't say that you lose the kick, even if you win the kick, you will also be scolded.
As for why, it has to be said, countless fans will still say that if you win this time, you will definitely lose next time.
As a result, what the fans said was true, even if they won, they will still lose the next game. Moreover, continue to lose again in the next game.
Winning is an accidental phenomenon, and losing is normal.
But now, the performance of the Chinese team has gradually won the respect of domestic fans.
It's just that just when the two hosts breathed a sigh of relief, the scene changed instantly.
Midfielder Zheng Zhi made a frontal tackle in order to block the attack of the Japanese team's No. 9.
"Red card. β
Just when the two presenters thought the referee would only blow for a foul and then award a free kick in midfield.
What no one expected was that the referee actually showed a red card.
"I'm grass, how is it possible, how can it be a red card. β
"I said, did that referee grow up eating, how can he get a red card. β
Countless fans were blindsided in an instant.
Similarly, the two hosts almost scolded.
"How can a frontal tackle in midfield be a red card, not a tackle from behind. β
"This kind of tackle, let alone a red card, even a yellow card is problematic. β
"My God......"
If it weren't for being the hosts, Xu Bing and Duan Lei would definitely want to say that there must be a shady scene here.
In fact, countless fans have long been scolded.
"The Japanese team must have bought the referee. β
"Yes, the Japanese team is disgusting. β
"No, this is the World Cup, can the Japanese team buy the referee?"
"Cut, you're too naΓ―ve, isn't there any match-fixing in the World Cup, isn't there a fake whistle in the World Cup?"
"Look at the 2002 World Cup, Japan and South Korea were cheating, and it was already public. β
"I'll go, it's too dark. β
Domestic fans are extremely angry.
However, to make matters worse, after the referee pulled out a red card, he pulled out another one.
This is because after Zheng Zhi received a red card, the national football players surrounded him and protested to the referee.
The referee felt that the players of the Chinese team did not respect his penalty, so he took out another one and sent Zhang Linfan off the field.
"I'll go, another red card. β
"It's disgusting, I didn't expect such a disgusting thing to happen at the World Cup. β
"Two red cards, isn't the referee afraid of complaining when he meows?"
All the domestic fans were completely outraged.
Even if it was Lippi at this time, he couldn't control his emotions.
It's just that he knows that the referee on the football field is above all else, even if you say anything more, it's useless.
"Calm down. β
"Calm down. β
"Give me back, don't approach the referee. β
Lippi said loudly.
In the end, under the appearance of Lippi and the appeasement of Mo Bai, Yu Dabao and others, the national football players stabilized their emotions.
The game is starting again.
It's just that from this moment on, countless domestic fans can't be calm anymore.
The Japanese team had 11 players, and the Chinese team was punished with only 9 players.
How can this be fought?
