Chapter 585: A Huge Surprise
The Chinese walked into the dressing room with a one-goal lead. The Australians were behind the score though. However, it seems that the morale is not bad. It was an interesting scene, the leaders didn't seem to be discouraged by conceding a late goal in the first half, and the morale of the lagging side was good.
This also means that there is still a kick in the second half of the game, and the exciting content is worth looking forward to.
A "scout" arranged by the Japanese national team stood up and moved his muscles, and he had been watching the game intently throughout the first half of the game, a little tired. The four teams in the semi-finals are China, Australia, Japan and South Korea, and the semi-finals are China against Australia and Japan against South Korea.
Originally, the Japanese team generally believed that it would be the Australian team that would meet them in the final, and the Japanese team was already thinking about how to deal with Australia's strong opponent, but they didn't expect that the semi-finals between the Chinese team and Australia surprised them: the Chinese team has Yang Fan, which is not easy to deal with, about this, the Japanese also admitted, however, the Japanese team believes that modern football is already the world of collective football, and the era of changing the game with a star like the Maradona era has passed, no matter how powerful Yang Fan is, in the face of Australia's overall strength, it is difficult for the Chinese team to cross the Australian kangaroo, in other wordsIt is undeniable that there are many good helpers around Maradona, and in the Chinese team, who are the helpers around Yang Fan?
So, it's understandable that the Japanese think their final opponent is Australia. It's just that the situation in the first half of this game surprised and alerted the Japanese.
Is Yang Fan really so strong, so strong that he has led the Chinese team to make such obvious progress, and is even qualified to win the Asian championship?!
Is this a big question mark or a big exclamation mark, and no one knows the answer right now. Either way, this gave the Japanese a wary reminder.
At one point in the first half, Osijek was behind by two goals, and Osijek, as the head coach, deserved to be a big thunderbolt. But that's not his style. His style is to think calmly about what the problem is. And how we can deal with it.
Of course, the team were able to pull a goal back in the final moments, which is why Osijek has been able to hold back his anger now.
In addition, Osijek also knows where the problem is, that is, Australia faces Yang Fan and the Chinese team, and is a little light!
Is Australia really strong enough to despise its opponents? Of course not!
"We are so proud. "I think we were too optimistic in the first half. Thinking about the opponent is too simple. In fact, no team can easily beat to reach the last four of continental competitions. ”
"In addition, there is another point, we are really unprepared for how to prevent Yang Fan. "Of course, this is a worldwide issue, and Barcelona and Real Madrid are worried about it, so don't think too much about it." ”
Osijek, who calmed down, analysed his players. He faced the problem first...... To a certain extent, the whole team was reviewed first, and then the whole team was cheered on.
"Yang Fan is very strong, if we want to defend him, we need to pay extra attention and we need to invest more troops, but once we do that, we will face another problem, the other Chinese players will have more chances, and that's how we conceded the first goal. ”
"It's a paradoxical subject. Osijek has some philosopher potential, he continued, "Now, what we can do is to pay more attention to Yang Fan when defending, and at the same time, we should also pay special attention to the reception of other Chinese players! This means that there is no other way, everyone needs to be more vigilant and work harder!"
After analysing the game in the first half and encouraging the players, Osijek began to talk about the second half.
"We're down by a goal now and that says it all, in the second half we have to step up our attack and control the game!" he raised his voice a little. At this time, Osijek was a little regretful, relying on Viduka's goal at the end of the first half, Australia narrowed the score gap, which is a good thing, but Osijek is also more regretful, because this goal came a little late, it came at the end of the first half, if it can score earlier, the morale of Australia may even continue to score.
In Osijek's view, the timely arrival of the half-time break gave the Chinese the opportunity and time to adjust. Good luck for the Chinese, huh. But that's the end of it, and the second half of the game is the Australians' game!
"Finally, and most importantly, don't give up, no matter how tough the situation, don't give up hope. Osijek said.
At half-time, the commentators were also analyzing the second half of the game, and their views tended to be the same, that is, Viduka's goal at the end of the first half had a significant impact on the game, and the gap of one goal gave Australia confidence and hope while also making the Chinese fearful, and the second half of the game will be more intense.
“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“goooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa1!”
"goooooooaa1!!Chinese scored another goal!!, only five minutes into the second half. The Chinese team scored their third goal of the game!" This time even John Mortensen's tone showed unconcealed surprise. After the start of the second half, as he commented at halftime, the Australians started the offensive in the second half, the Chinese team was once pressed into the penalty area, Australia was very threatening with two consecutive shots, it seemed that the Australians scored a goal sooner or later, but only ten seconds later, the situation changed abruptly! After the Chinese team blocked an attack from Australia, it moved a quick counterattack, and seized the opportunity to counterattack and scored a goal.
"Fifty-first minute. The Chinese scored another goal, the same goal as their first goal of the first half, and the Australians were hit by the Chinese with a sharp counter-attack, which was fatal for Australia, who are now down 3-1 and in a huge crisis. ”
The Australian was completely blown up by Yang Fan alone, two assists, one pass, and the captain of the Chinese team embarrassed the Australian Kangaroo Army! Fifty-one minutes into the game, the Chinese team led Australia 3:1. Yang Fan is indeed powerful, he led his teammates to the finals......"
"The ball is in, the ball is in, the ball is in, Hao Junmin!Hao Junmin!Hao Junmin!He scored Yang Fan's pass!" He Wei roared excitedly, just now the Chinese team broke the ball in the backfield after the quick counterattack, Yang Fan drove straight into the ball all the way, he used his degree and foot technology to stir up the Australian defense line is a man on his back, when everyone's attention was attracted to him, Yang Fan sent a scalpel-like ball, Hao Junmin successfully countered offside, and scored the football into most of the empty goals!
"Three to one! Three to one!" Liu Jianhong couldn't hide his surprise while being excited, "We withstood Australia's offensive and successfully counterattacked! Our team gave us a big surprise, and they surprised us inexplicably!"
It's not just the narrator who is surprised. I'm afraid that even the most die-hard fans of the Chinese team did not expect that their team would be able to open the score gap again with goals in a passive situation after the start of the second half.
You must know that the strength of Australian football is strong, let's put it this way, Australia's strength in Europe is about the same level as the Czech Republic and Romania, which belongs to the second-rate level in Europe, which is a team with a tough style and good strength.
Australia's technical level is much worse than that of European giants and South American giants, but it is much better than the Chinese team!
Australia's physical fitness is not to mention, even compared with European teams, Australia's physical fitness does not suffer.
In this way, the technical level of the Chinese team is not as good as Australia's, and the physical fitness can't compete with the other party, and the experience of the competition is far worse than the opponent. Therefore, don't look at many fans who said before the game that they believe that the Chinese team can advance and that Yang Fan can lead the Chinese team to kill Australia, but this is more wishful thinking support and wishes, and everyone will still have the possibility of accepting defeat in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, the Chinese team once led Australia 2-0 in the first half of the game, and finally led the opponent 2-1 in the last game, and the second half of the game was even more magical, passive at the beginning, and seemed to be able to lose the ball at any time, but the opportunity for a counterattack was seized, and now the Chinese team is leading Australia 3-1, and Australia can be beaten so embarrassed. It was really a big surprise for everyone.
Yang Fan, the captain of the Chinese team, was very excited, he assisted two goals and scored one goal, and was the director of the three goals of the Chinese team.
His teammates were just as excited as he was, rushing to him and hugging to celebrate the goal.
On the Australian side, Australia's captain Viduka is encouraging his players.
"It's not time to give up yet! if we lose to China here. This is the end of our Asian Cup journey! They are now two goals ahead and will be a narrow opponent. Here's our chance! surprise them!" the 36-year-old Australian veteran, their captain clenched his fist and stretched out. Teammates clenched their fists and put them on. More and more fists are stacked on top of each other. It represents the determination of Australians.
Viduka is Chinese New Year's Eve and 6 years old. There will definitely be nothing for him to do in the next World Cup, he will definitely be retired by then, and he will have nothing to do with the next Asian Cup, and the Asian Cup that is now underway will be his last continental competition for the Australian national team! This is his last memory of Viduka in world football. So he doesn't want to leave regrets in this Asia. He hopes to lead Australia to the top of Asia.
Not only Viduka, but other Australian players were also aroused at this time.
They're going to fight to the end!
Let's just say that since joining the AFC, Australia has come with the ambition to conquer Asia. In the last Asian Cup, Australia was killed in the first round of the knockout round, which made them very faceless, and in this Asian Cup, Australia vowed to win the championship.
this game. You can't afford to lose!
On the sidelines, Gao Hongbo was also celebrating his goal.
"Lao Gao, look at ......," assistant coach Fu Bo said suddenly.
Following the direction of Fu Bonu's mouth, Gao Hongbo looked over, but saw a scene that surprised him - despite conceding the goal, the Australian players' expressions were not very frustrated, their captain Viduka was shouting this, and the players quickly fished the football out of the net, and while lining up in formation, they reminded the referee that the Chinese team had been celebrating for too long. The Australians can't wait to kick off the tee.
It stands to reason that after falling behind and besieging the Chinese team for a period of time, their own side did not score, but was scored by the Chinese team again, and they should be like ashes. But look now. Their expressions did not continue to deteriorate.
What did Osijek say to them at half-time?
Gao Hongbo did not think about this issue carefully. For him. When he was leading by one goal, he was very nervous, but now that he is leading by two goals, Yang Fan is in good shape, and his pressure is much less. He doesn't think that the Australians can easily turn the tables, and you must know that the impact of this conceded goal on Australia should not be small, because it will make the Australians throw a bogey, they urgently need to attack and score, but they have to strengthen the defense of the Chinese team's counterattack, especially for Yang Fan's defense, which will give Australia a headache, if you focus on defending Yang Fan, it is bound to be empty elsewhere, which gives other Chinese players a chance, and if you distract the defense, the threat on Yang Fan's side will be even more powerful, which is really a headache for Australia。 Gao Hongbo thought of this, and felt a little proud in his heart, fortunately Yang Fan is Chinese.
Gao Hongbo is indeed very confident now.
