"Beep~"

With a long whistle from Spanish referee Laos, the first half of the first group stage of the second round of Group C of the 2018 World Cup in Russia came to an end.

The Chinese team led the Danish team 2-1 at the Samara Stadium with two goals from Tang Zheng and Lu Liang, and the Chinese players who appeared on the broadcast screen looked very happy, in stark contrast to the Danish players who slowly walked into the players' tunnel.

When you think of Denmark getting off to a dream start and falling behind by the scoreline, it's understandable why they're so upset.

If the match is finished with the current scoreline, the Danes will fall to third place in the group, barring an accident.

In the last round, France was more than lucky.

Of course, the Danish fans in the stands didn't think so, they thought that the game was only half over, and their national team still had plenty of time to equalize, or even overtake, and then qualify for the group one round earlier!

The script has been written, but whether it can be played according to the script written by the Danish fans depends on whether the Danish players can make eye-catching changes in the second half.

Throughout the first half, except for the offensive threat of the Chinese team at the beginning, Yan Junling could not be threatened in the middle and late stages to guard the goal.

As players from both sides entered the tunnel one after another, the frenetic atmosphere that swirled over the Samara Stadium dropped significantly, as fans also needed to take advantage of the fifteen minutes of the half-time break to get a short break to save their energy for the second half.

If this match is the first round, both sides have a way out, the problem is that this round is the crucial second round, and no one can afford to lose.

For the fans, the second half of the game was not only a battle between two teams, but also a battle between fans of both sides in the stands.

The players and fans entered a state of rest, and the commentators in the live broadcast room of various TV stations with the right to broadcast the World Cup did not have time to rest, and they intensively reviewed the end of the first half of the game and analyzed how the Chinese team managed to overtake the score.

The commentator's views are not much different, basically around the core of the midfield Tang Zheng, the Chinese team started unfavorably because the overall state has not yet been played, and one was stolen by the Danish team, but as the game progressed, the player's condition gradually improved, coupled with the captain Tang Zheng's participation in the attack at the right time, the equalizer was considered to be expected.

The goal scored by Lu Liang reflects Tang Zheng's super ability to read the game and the world's top passing ability, so the Chinese team's ability to overtake the score is directly related to Tang Zheng's excellent performance.

Looking at the entire world football, there are countless players who have both offense and defense, but if they can not only turn the tide like Tang Zheng, but also be a husband, they really can't find a second one.

The world's first worth is not in vain.

The fifteen-minute half-time break passed in a blink of an eye, and players from both sides returned to the pitch one after another, sweating for the remaining 45 minutes.

There were no changes to their respective line-ups before the game began, meaning that Lippi and Harred were happy with their players' performances in the first half.

"Beep~"

Laos whistled, and the second half of the game between the Chinese team and the Danish team began.

The Danish team, which was behind in the score, played very strategically, and pounced on Tang Zheng, who was in control of the ball at the beginning.

However, Tang Zheng was mentally prepared, unhurriedly turned his back to the direction of the attack, passed to the central defender Feng Xiaoting with one foot close to the ground, and then jogged back, coming to the middle of the double central defender Feng Xiaoting and Gao Zhunyi, acting as the third central defender.

In world football, playmaking midfielders often return to the two centre-backs to make the pass, providing better space and angles to receive the ball.

Jorgensen, who was at the front, pounced on Tang Zheng without hesitation, and there was no surprise, Tang Zheng passed the football to goalkeeper Yan Junling, and then ran to the position where the left back Jiang Zhipeng should be and picked up Yan Junling.

As Tang Zheng's position shrank closer, the Danish players continued to move forward, while the overall formation of the Chinese team had to retreat and looked precarious.

In fact, Tang Zheng has outstanding skills and a wide field of vision, and he is waiting for the Danish team's three lines to open up more, and then the midfield and the front court will be opportunities.

The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway, where does the head coach of the Danish team Harred not know what Tang Zheng is going to do?

He hurriedly ran to the sidelines to signal the players not to be fooled, to stabilize the situation first, and then look for opportunities.

But...... The players' attention is entirely on the pitch, where will they notice the manager shouting from the sidelines?

"Whoa—"

Coupled with the fact that the fans of both sides entered the state, creating a deafening huge chant.

……

"Luckily!"

Tang Zheng's accurate long pass found Hao Junmin behind the contrast, fortunately, Hao Junmin, who is over 30 years old, has decreased in speed and explosiveness, and his low left-footed shot is weak under the interference of Christensen, who is chasing back at high speed, and the football is held in the arms of goalkeeper Schmeichel, and Danish coach Harred breathed a sigh of relief.

If the score is extended by the Chinese team at the beginning of the second half, then the game really can't be played.

So, standing on the edge of the command area, Hared's hands formed into a trumpet shape and shouted a few words to the players on the field, signaling the players to focus on stability and not blindness.

With the starters of the second half, the Danes on the pitch were aware of the consequences of blindness, so they became more patient in terms of attacking organisation when it came to winning the ball.

At this time, the hopes of Danish fans are pinned on the team's number one star, Christian Eriksen.

As the heart of Tottenham's playmaker, Danish fans believe Eriksen has the ability to create great chances for his team-mates in this game.

However, the head coach of the Chinese team, Lippi, has a very good coaching ability on the spot, and makes corresponding adjustments at the first time, the responsibilities of the double back Tang Zheng and Li Kui have changed, and Li Kui, who is good at sticky, never leaves Eriksen, and Tang Zheng, who has the best ability to read the game, is stationed in front of the central defender to protect the team's goal.

※※※

In the first ten minutes of the second half, Denmark was the main attacker, and the Chinese team was the main defender, but the Danish team's direct threat to Yan Junling's shot to guard the goal had not yet happened, and the scene was relatively stalemate, so the Danish coach Harred couldn't sit still and took the lead in making personnel adjustments.

Braithwaite, who is extremely fast and has good skills at his feet, does not play a big role in replacing Poulsen, increasing the pressure on the Chinese team on the wings.

However, Braithwaite, who came off the bench, faced Zhang Linpeng, who was the most stable on the side of the Chinese team, although Braithwaite's speed was very fast, but Zhang Linpeng's physical condition was better, as long as the two had physical contact, Braithwaite's proud speed could not be played at all, which was equivalent to saying that Hared's adjustment was useless.

When the game came to 65 minutes, Lippi definitely made personnel adjustments, and Hao Junmin, who received a yellow card in the first round, should be protected and substituted.

But just when Wu Xi was waiting for the dead ball, Eriksen played a delicate combination with Braithwaite and Delaney, and was about to enter the penalty area.

Because Eriksen was about to hold the ball into the left penalty area, there was a chance to threaten Yan Junling to guard the goal, and the referee Laos showed no mercy to Hao Junmin and directly showed a yellow card to Hao Junmin.

Hao Junmin is also accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, and knows that the yellow card of referee Laos is reasonable, so he did not protest.

Head coach Lippi shook his head helplessly when he saw this, he originally wanted to use Hao Junmin to play the last group game, but now it seems that ...... He was obviously unable to play after being suspended in the third round, so he quickly walked to the sideline and personally pulled Wu Xi back.

Since Hao Junmin will not be able to play in the third group stage, let him play the second group stage.

Eriksen's direct free-kick from the left corner of the box went over the crossbar and the ball changed hands.

The game came to 68 minutes in a relatively dull pace, and the Danes called for another substitution, with 1.93m tall centre-forward Cornelius replacing Jorgensen.

Seeing this substitution, Liu Jiayuan, the commentator of the Central 5 Commentary, immediately raised his eyebrows: "This outstanding youth product from the Danish domestic giant Copenhagen has a glorious past and unbearable, and he switched to Atlanta last year to perform decently, but the height of 1.93 meters is a huge test for Feng Xiaoting and Gao Zhunyi......"

Of course, it's just a test.

When Lippi was adjusting in Denmark, he pulled Sun Jingbo to explain a few words, and he conveyed the latest tactical intentions to the players on the field.

Cornelius does have an absolute height and header advantage, but the Chinese team did not give the Danish players the opportunity to pass the ball to Cornelius, or the Danish players were focused on by the Chinese players when they passed the ball to Cornelius, and the crosshairs dropped greatly.

You must know that the Danish players' foot skills are not particularly delicate, and it is even more impossible to guarantee the landing point of the pass under the key care.

Harred couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lippi, who was over seventy years old, his brows were tightly locked, and he kept sighing in his heart: "Jiang, it's really still old and spicy!"

※※※

In the 73rd minute, the Chinese team made the first adjustment of the game, Zhang Yuzha, who consumed a lot of energy in running without the ball, was replaced by Wu Sanshi as the right midfielder, and Sun Jingbo returned to the front of the front line.

However, Sun Jingbo's running position is erratic, and he is not like Zhang Yuzhan who always stands up to the Danish team's double central defenders, making the Chinese team's attacking small group closer.

But the shortcomings are equally obvious, the Chinese team's attack without pillars can only be pushed forward through a gradual offensive method.

Without Zhang Yuzhan between the two centre-backs, Andreas Christensen and Kjaer could free up time to support the attack.

It's just that head coach Harred is worried about the rapid counterattack of the Chinese team, because whether it is Lu Liang or Sun Jingbo, or Wu Sanshi, who came off the bench, they all have extremely fast speed, and their shooting skills are not bad.

The first thing to do in order to score an equaliser is to defend first and not concede the goal.

Hared's ideas were very good, and the players' ability to execute the tactics was good, but the calculations didn't come as a surprise.

In the 77th minute, the Chinese team had a quick counterattack opportunity, Wu Sanshi, who ran out of the receiving space without the ball, ran all the way with the ball, and he still completed a high-quality low shot in the box under Christensen's interference.

Fortunately, goalkeeper Schmeichel focused and fell to the ground to save the football away.

The Chinese team won a corner kick on the left side, and Sun Jingbo from La Masia's academy was in charge of the penalty.

Tang Zheng, Gao Zhunyi, Zhang Linpeng, Feng Xiaoting and Li Kui are five Chinese players with outstanding competitive ability, and the Danish players are particularly focused on captain, especially captain Tang Zheng, who has attracted the 1.93m Cornelius and captain Kjaer to defend.

Despite this, Tang Zheng, who judged the landing point very accurately, still completed the battle.

He jumped high in the crowd and became the center of attention of the fans.

"Tang Zheng—"

Yang 5 commentator Liu Jiayuan's voice suddenly rose an octave.

"Whoa—"

At the same time, the sky above the Samara Stadium resounded with the huge chanting of Chinese fans and neutral fans subconsciously.

All the fans at the scene stared at Tang Zheng who jumped high, and they could clearly see that Tang Zheng beat Cornelius and Kjaer to jump completely, his arms were naturally raised to maintain his body balance, and Sun Jingbo's football flew to the top of his head at the right time.

Tang Zheng twisted his waist violently, his neck was tense, he shook his abdomen, concentrated his whole body strength on his forehead, and roared in his heart: "Uh~"

The soccer ball changes its trajectory and flies towards the upper right corner of the goal.

Danish goalkeeper Schmeichel reacted very quickly on the goal line, bent his knees on tiptoe, and the whole person rose into the air, but due to his lack of height and limited arm span, Schmeichel, who had already pounced sideways, could not touch the football.

“NO！！”

Schmeichel was desperate with a clear arc of football, and he looked unwilling.

In fact, even Schmeichel is tall and long-armed, he can't do anything, because Tang Zheng's football has good power and angle, and it flew into the goal against the crossbar and the right goal post, crashing into the snow-white net......

“Goooooooooooooooal——”

The iconic elongated voice of British Sky commentator Andy Gray bombards fans in front of the TV.

"Tang Zheng's header hits the goal!"

Liu Jiayuan, the commentator of the Central 5 Bulletin, shouted hysterically: "The ball is in! The captain Tang Zheng, who is 1.94 meters tall, took advantage of the opportunity of a corner kick to break through Schmeichel and guard the goal! The score became 3:1!! The Chinese team led the Danish team by two goals! Tang Zheng, who scored twice in this game, caught up with Ronaldo and topped the scorer list!"

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif was in high spirits: "Oh-My-God!!!I guarantee the Danes have forgotten Tang's most consistent scoring weapon! His header broke Kasper Schmeichel's goal!Helped the Chinese team extend the score to two goals!Unbelievable performance!Four goals and one assist in two games!Thirty-three-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo single-handedly led Portugal forward yesterday, and today, 28-year-old Tang also turned the tide......"

"Whoa—"

With the huge chanting of the fans of the 'Dragon Team' fan club over the Samara Stadium, Tang Zheng, who scored the goal, was particularly excited in the frenzied atmosphere of the scene, he stood in place and raised his arms, looking up to the sky and roaring.

Coupled with Cornelius and Kjaer, who were reduced to the background, fell on both sides respectively, Tang Zheng, who appeared on the broadcast screen, looked mighty.

Countless Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV couldn't help but scream and cheer for Tang Zheng.

This goal will most likely mean that the Chinese team will win Denmark!

The game came to 78 minutes, and the Chinese team expanded the score, which was equivalent to the Danish team coming to the edge of the cliff......
