Chapter 574: Advance to the Final Four

The Jordanian fans at Harry Stadium were in complete seepage, what an exhilarating performance it was for the team to score a goal in extremely difficult circumstances and now only fall behind by one goal!

They are proud that they are Jordanian fans themselves!

Jordan coach Adnan had been standing on the sidelines to direct the game, and when he saw the ball go in, Adnan immediately became excited. He jumped up and shook his fist vigorously in the air. He knows what the goal means for Jordan and there is no doubt that it is a shot in the arm for Jordanians.

What made Adnan even happier was that the Chinese team actually thought that everything would be fine if they were leading 2-0, and actually replaced Yang Fan! Now, the player who made the entire Jordanian team jealous is not on the field, and the Jordanian team really has nothing to fear.

And Gao Hongbo punched the ground hard, he knew what the problem was. He was confused by the score on the field, thinking that a 2-0 lead would be enough to ensure that the Chinese team would advance, but Gao Hongbo ignored one point, that is, even if the Chinese team was leading by two goals, the Jordanian team was not completely at a disadvantage, and they were not crushed by the Chinese team's goal! That is to say, this team always maintained its combat effectiveness and never gave up!

It's still careless!

After a brief celebration, the excited Jordanian players were already in formation again, and they waited for the kick-off in the centre circle. They are now in high spirits and have strong confidence and hope for an equaliser.

The players of the Chinese team were at a loss, what a good situation, two goals ahead, completely able to advance with a relatively relaxed attitude, the head coach replaced the captain Yang Fan is not also a good illustration of this, the head coach does not feel that the Jordan team has any threat. However, looking at the current situation, why did Jordan score as soon as the captain was replaced?!

The Jordanian team's goal was a big blow to the self-confidence of the Chinese team's players. In fact, there has always been a voice, and even this is the opinion of some mainstream media, that is, this Chinese team can be divided into two gears, one is the Chinese team without Yang Fan, which can be said to be a low gear, and the Chinese team with Yang Fan, this is completely a car with full horsepower! Or to put it more bluntly, that is, without Yang Fan, the strength of the Chinese team has dropped a lot. It can even be said that there is nothing to fear.

Realistically speaking, this kind of discussion is a blow to the other players of the Chinese team, and it is also a kind of injury, they do have a gap in strength with Yang Fan, but this is an objective fact, this can not erase their efforts and hard work in the game, in fact, this Chinese team under the leadership of Yang Fan, the captain, showed a very high mental outlook and fighting, and the other players are also very hardworking. The soccer game is eleven for one!

These discussions, the players know, they usually don't care, don't take it to heart, but when it comes to the game, especially at this time, Yang Fan has just been replaced, and the opponent has scored, which will deepen the impact of this discussion on the players, and they will not be confident. will subconsciously accept this thought: without Yang Fan, they will not be able to play well.

After the game restarted, the Jordan team really started a crazy offensive towards the Chinese team's goal as if it had eaten a doping.

There was only one voice over the Harry Stadium at this moment: "Jordan!Jordan!Jordan!!!" These supporters seemed to see that Allah had opened a door for them, a door to score!

Because of the geographical location, many Jordanian fans came to support the team in this game, so in a sense, this game can even be said to be the home of the Jordanian team.

The 'home fans' were excited and cheered on the Jordan team.

And the Jordanian team scored, especially in the subsequent game, the Jordanian team launched a fierce offensive against the Chinese team's goal, which made the entire Chinese fans nervous, and many people complained about the conservative tactics of head coach Gao Hongbo and that he replaced Yang Fan so early.

"We are playing like this in a good situation! Watching the Chinese team's game, we always remind us to be scared!" In a bar somewhere in China, some fans stared at the big-screen TV in the bar and discussed.

"As soon as Yang Fan is not on the field, it seems that others don't know how to play. ”

"It's so depressing to be beaten like this by Jordan!" someone slammed the heavy beer glass on the table.

"And Yang Fan, when he was on the field, if he hadn't wasted so many chances and scored two more goals, he wouldn't be like this now. A young man with dyed yellow hair and studs on his ears shouted.

"Hey, what do you say?" This immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of other fans, and someone shouted, "How much joy Yang Fan has brought to our fans on the field, and what honor has he brought to Chinese football, why don't you say it? Besides, those few shots did not score, this is not the reason for Yang Fan, you don't see that their goalkeeper is simply explosive, no matter how you pounce! If you want me to say, in such a situation, Yang Fan can still score two goals, which is quite remarkable." ”

The words of this fan have resonated with everyone, the fans all know the ball, they will not blame Yang Fan, no one can guarantee that every shot they will score, Yang Fan's shooting quality is already quite high, but this goalkeeper's performance is too magical, they dare to say, even if it is Buffon to guard the goal, it may not be as good as the goalkeeper who exploded in today's game.

What's more, how much they like this young man, in the most chaotic and dark days of Chinese football, Yang Fan has always been the hope of the fans, every weekend, watching Yang Fan play, watching him score, watching him kill in the European arena, this is the greatest enjoyment for Chinese fans.

Everyone criticized the ignorant young fan. This embarrassed the man, and he vented his anger on the fan who first contradicted him.

"I don't know as much as you, don't think that you will understand football after watching football for a few years, I bah. ”

"What do you say, do you say it again?" I tell you, don't think I'm afraid of you......" The man was not to be outdone.

"How's it going? Come on!!" 'Yellow Fur' immediately got up from his seat and began to roll up his sleeves.

"Hey, hey, calm down, they're all fans, as for that, who else, don't say I didn't see it, when Yang Fan scored, your cheers were louder than anyone else, and it can be seen that you are also Yang Fan's fans, since that's the case, don't say those weird things, and you, don't be like Xiao Young. "The onlookers immediately came out and separated the two, and now it's time to watch the game, not to fight.

"Yes, yes, yes, if you want to blame Gao Hongbo, you shouldn't have replaced Yang Fan so early. ”

"That's right. ”

"That's right. Both of them found the bottom of the stairs and immediately agreed. The poor head coach of the Chinese team, Gao Hongbo, lay down his gun and became the object of everyone's complaints.

In the remaining ten minutes, it is simply a torture for the fans of the Chinese team, they are worried that the Jordanian team may score at any time to equalize the score, in that case, the Chinese team will be in danger, with the current Jordanian team pressing the Chinese team, no one will think that the Chinese team may kill the Jordanian team in overtime.

There were three minutes of stoppage time at full-time.

Jordanian fans were dissatisfied, they thought that there was too little stoppage time, because the score was still 1-2 at this time, and the Jordanian team was behind the Chinese team.

The fans of the Chinese team are dissatisfied, they think that three minutes of stoppage time is too long, two minutes of stoppage time is enough, why one more minute?!

In the final moments of the game, the Chinese team was almost fully defensive, setting up a bus in front of the goal, and using the number of defenders to block the Jordanian team's attack.

They eventually held on.

In the end, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game 10 seconds after three minutes of stoppage time.

The game is over!

The Chinese team eliminated Jordan 2-1 and broke into the semifinals!

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the fans of the Chinese team on the field seemed to have spent all their strength and sat on the ground! They were tired, and then during this time, the Chinese team was passive on the field, but this could not erase the efforts of these players, the whole team almost used their bodies to form a defensive line to block Jordan's attack, and the players used their bodies to 'block the gun's eye' to block the opponent's shots six or seven times, and these players were very desperate. Although the strength is not satisfactory, however, the attitude of the game is really not to say. This may be the most impressive thing about Gao Hongbo's national team, and the whole team is working hard.

The players on the field were so tired that they sat on the ground, some simply lay on the ground, and the substitutes and members of the coaching staff of the Chinese team, who had been waiting on the sidelines for a long time, poured into the stadium and rushed to the players on the field, hugging them to celebrate the victory and thanking them for their hard work. They are the ones who feel the deepest, watching the Jordanian team's attack off the pitch, they are very worried, and the pressure on the players on the pitch is even more conceivable. Although the play was passive, the players on the pitch did their best and they were worthy of the jerseys they were wearing.

Of course, what made the players of the Chinese team excited was the result of the game, they defeated the Jordan team 2-1, which means that they broke into the semi-finals!

To be able to break into the semi-finals, which is not too much to expect before this team goes out, even if they have Yang Fan, they are at most sure of the group qualification, as for the semi-finals, the players may have occasionally thought about it, but they don't dare to think about it, the Chinese team has suffered too many blows over the years, and these players have begun to become less and less confident, which is still the result of Yang Fan's self-confidence after the Chinese team's self-confidence has been improved.

Of course, the mentality of the players changed after the big win over Uzbekistan in the group stage, and at that time, they began to expect more and began to imagine the prospect of reaching the last four!

The thought of reaching the semi-finals made everyone crazy!

The top four!

The last time the Chinese team reached the semi-finals was the 2oo4 local Asian Cup, which was seven years ago, and now there is no player in the Chinese team who has experienced the 2oo4 local Asian Cup, so to speak, the Chinese team reached the 2oo2 South Korea-Japan World Cup and the 2oo4 local Asian Cup and won the runner-up, which ******** The team's last glory in recent years, have nothing to do with this group of players, they did not enjoy the glory of the Chinese team, but endured more infamy, after the 2oo4 local Asian Cup, the Chinese team's most glorious era in the last two decades ended, the Chinese football environment is getting worse, almost to the point where everyone shouts and beats, these players almost grew up in the infamy.

In this case, it is conceivable how significant it is for these players to reach the semi-finals of the Asian Cup now!

After the final whistle blew, the Jordanian players collapsed to the ground, having worked so hard for so long that they still couldn't make it past the quarter-finals. Although they have only made it out of the group stage in their only two appearances, they have always made it to the quarter-finals.

The last time they played in the Asian Cup, they were eliminated by Japan in the quarter-finals, but the Japanese played tricks and asked for a change of goal after two rounds of penalty shootouts, which upset the psychology of the Jordanians, and they were eventually eliminated by the Japanese.

This time, facing the Chinese team, they were once 0-2 behind, but they never gave up, they chased the score to only one goal, they formed a siege of the Chinese team's goal at the last moment, but in the end, they were still unable to score another goal!

It can be said that in the game with the Chinese team, the Jordanian team has done the ultimate and done well enough, and they used their performance to prove the strength of Jordanian football and the bloody nature of the Jordanian men's football team.

When they faced the Chinese team without Yang Fan, they showed strong strength, and many people had a feeling that if there was no Yang Fan, Jordan would be very hopeful of crossing the Chinese team.

It's a pity that there is no if!

The Chinese team has Yang Fan, this is the confidence and capital of the Chinese team, and this is the pride and pride of Chinese football!

Losing to the Chinese team, more precisely, losing to Yang Fan, is not ashamed!

However, this self-consolation could not heal the wounds of these Jordanian players, and after the whistle blew at the end of the game, some of them knelt on the ground, some of them crossed their hands and their heads bowed, some of them hid their faces and wept, some of them prayed, but their eyes were full of pain......

Among them, the most painful is the goalkeeper of the Jordanian team, Shafi.

In fact, the blow of losing is especially cruel for those players who perform well, the better the more cruel, the better you are, and when the result of losing comes, it is even more unacceptable, and the heart is even more panicked.

The camera gives a close-up of the Jordanian goalkeeper, Shafi sitting in front of the door, his gloves thrown beside him, looking up, looking at the sky, his eyes are red, Shafi is holding back tears.

The TV camera changed to show the Chinese team players celebrating their victory frantically, and the captain of the Chinese team, Yang Fan, was surrounded by many reporters with flashing lights.

The winner is king, this is an eternal truth in any field.

Yang Fan and the Chinese team advanced to the semi-finals, they are the winners, and they deserve to enjoy this glory!
