Chapter 249: Entering the Top Twelve
An Rong's original idea was to reorganize the national Olympic team after passing the qualifying round of the Olympic preliminaries, but at present, it seems that this plan may have to be carried out in advance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He knew that the national Olympic team was very weak, and was even called "the weakest in history" by the media, but he didn't expect it to be so weak. If this continues, the "weakest in history" is estimated to become the "worst in history".
also blamed An Rong for his carelessness, he should have paid attention to it after losing to North Korea, but the draw with Saudi Arabia gave him some buffer space, which also created an illusion: maybe the national Olympic team can successfully pass the test in Oman.
It turns out that An Rong overestimated the strength of these players.
During his tenure, he and Guo Fan told the media that "if you can't go to London, you will leave", which is easy to say, but when the crisis appears in front of them, it is impossible to worry about it without a little worry. After all, if you are already sitting in this position, you have to take this responsibility, and no one wants to leave an infamy on the day you leave.
So An Rong immediately changed several players after the first leg with the Oman team, first of all, the striker, he recruited Liu Jianwei, Huang Yu and Tang Ling of the former Shanghai Zhongbang and now Guizhou Zhicheng (Shanghai Zhongbang was acquired on January 28, 2011) club, and then recruited Xu Ziyi and Zhao Wenkang, and finally An Rong recruited Ma Junqiang into the National Olympic team.
Ma Junqiang entered the team, which also conveyed a signal to the world: Wang Xiaolei, the former No. 1 goalkeeper of the National Olympic team, had to give up his position. No one would think that An Rong called Ma Junqiang to play as a substitute.
Among the six people who have attracted much attention in Europe, An Rong recruited three at one time. The media and fans were not surprised by the selection of Ma Junqiang, but Liu Jianwei, Huang Yu and Tang Ling, many people seemed a little unfamiliar, not to mention that many fans had never heard of their names, and even some media knew little about them.
This is indeed the first time that these three have been selected for the national Olympic team. The media inevitably questioned An Rong: Is it feasible to arrange three newcomers to join the team in such a crucial game? Also, why are Zhang Shujie and Li Mu still not recruited into the team? Yan Tao is not in the team, what kind of plane is An Rong doing?
An Rong didn't have the leisure to pay attention to the media's opinions, the team's training time was only three days, An Rong was buried in the tactical layout, and he didn't want to care what the media wanted to say.
In this campaign, the Chinese team discharged a 4321 formation, Liu Jianwei played as a single arrow, Xu Ziyi and Wu Lei served as the front midfield, Zhao Wenkang was still on the familiar right side, Huang Yu played left back, Tang Ling appeared in the position of central defender, and Ma Junqiang guarded the goal. Although there are three strong generals to help, it is the Chinese team that concedes the goal first.
Ma Junqiang kicked his foot out of the net, and then immediately accused Chen Fanyu: "What are you doing? Don't you know how to look at people? You are now a central defender! Keep an eye on your people first!"
The two were teammates of the national team in the Asian Cup, and Chen Fanyu had not made such a low-level mistake at that time, why did he make frequent mistakes when he arrived at the National Olympic team?
Chen Fanyu didn't speak, just walked away with his head stuffed, and he himself wondered how he could have lost people just now. In this penalty area, defenders should not make such mistakes.
Soon after, the Oman team also had a close-range header, which was very threatening, and even Liu Jianhong, who was in charge of the commentary, thought that the Chinese team was about to concede the ball again, but Ma Junqiang bravely resolved the crisis in front of the goal, and he instinctively stretched out a hand at the moment when he lost the best position, and lifted the ball off the crossbar with one palm.
Before the end of the first half, the Chinese team launched a counterattack, Zhao Wenkang crossed diagonally from the right, the ball flew high and floating in the air, and landed in front of Liu Jianwei's head accurately.
Liu Jianwei, who is one meter tall, jumped high, a beautiful header hit the goal, the ball smashed in the small penalty area and there was a rebound, the Omani goalkeeper was unexpected, although he made a save, but did not save the ball, and the Chinese team pulled back a point.
Liu Jianwei, who was selected for the National Olympic team for the first time, scored a goal, and he will also gain more trust from An Rong. In fact, he can play the main force in the club, which is also An Rong's previous fancy to him.
The two sides drew 1-1 in the first half, and the second half was volatile, and the Oman team stepped up their attack, and Ma Junqiang's goal was repeatedly threatened, but fortunately he played well and tried to keep the goal intact.
In the 71st minute, Oman's long-range shot from outside the penalty area hit Cao Ding's leg and had a refraction, Ma Jun pounced in the opposite direction, and the ball flew towards the goal against the ground. Seeing that he was about to lose the ball, Tang Ling quickly ran to the penalty area line and shoveled the ball out.
But he didn't shovel too far, but he shoveled to the other side, opposite to Ma Junqiang's position, the Oman team stepped forward to make up for the shot, Tang Ling got up from the ground, fell to the ground with his body to seal the goal, the ball hit his buttocks, and popped out of the penalty area.
Ma Junqiang had palpitations and gave Tang Ling a thumbs up, and Tang Ling smiled and waved his hand.
With such a desperate defender in front, the goalkeeper will be relieved.
In the 80th minute of the game, the Chinese team is still 1:1 Oman, and the total score is 1:2 behind, if you want to enter the qualifiers for the top 12, the Chinese team has to score at least one more goal, and you have to ensure that you don't concede any more goals in the remaining ten minutes.
In the 82nd minute, the Oman team won a free kick in front, and the ball passed through the Chinese team's human wall and blasted towards the goal. Ma Junqiang roared and flew to save the ball.
Zhao Wenkang got the ball, he passed it to Xu Ziyi, the Oman team pressed relatively high, Xu Ziyi took out more than ten meters away all the way unhindered, and only then did the Omani players step forward to block it.
Xu Ziyi distributed the ball to the left side, Huang Yu quickly stepped forward, and used the speed advantage to rush to the back of the Oman team, which was a standard quick counterattack! With the help of the fast speed of the fullbacks, they hit the Oman defense in the shortest possible time. Huang Yu glanced at Liu Jianwei in the penalty area, attracted the attention of the Omani defenders, and then passed the ball diagonally to the area around the big penalty area.
Xu Ziyi has already arrived.
He picked up his left leg and fired a powerful volley, Liu Jianwei in front dodged, and the ball passed through the two defenders of the Oman team and hung in the dead corner!
2:1! The Chinese team overtook the score!
After the goal, Xu Ziyi ran towards Huang Yu, this ball is inseparable from Huang Yu's credit, he ran more than 40 meters away with the ball, with extremely fast speed, the Oman players were stunned and couldn't catch up.
Liu Jianwei, Zhao Wenkang and other teammates also ran towards the two, and soon the two were surrounded by everyone. An Rong stood on the sidelines and applauded the players. Judging from his expression, it was obvious that he was a lot more relaxed.
The aggregate score of the two legs between the two sides became 2:2, and the Chinese team had one more away goal, as long as the score can be maintained until the last minute, the Chinese team can advance to the top 12 by virtue of the away goal advantage, and the Oman team will be eliminated.
There are less than ten minutes left in the game, and whether the Chinese team can go further depends on "Ma Dashuai"!
Ma Junqiang tidied up his gloves in front of the goal, he knew very well that according to the "international practice", the leading side in this time period must adopt defensive tactics, this time China will not "overturn in the gutter", it all depends on Ma Junqiang's hands!
The Chinese team changed two defenders one after another, and they must keep the score. The Oman team did not give up, they were still attacking, and the Chinese team except for Liu Jianwei in the front, the rest of the players all shrank into and outside the penalty area. Ma Junqiang is also calm in the midst of tension, he directs the defenders to mark people, one by one, and there must not be a slight mistake.
"Tang Ling, you force up! Don't worry about the back, just stick close, don't let him shoot!"
"Huang Yu, look at the fullback who came in! Don't let him run in!"
"Xu Ziyi, squeeze that guy outside!
Ma Junqiang's voice was very loud, and every member of the team heard it clearly. At this time, everyone will listen to him, the goalkeeper is in a special position, and his words are more effective than what the captain says when necessary.
But no matter how they mark, Oman will still have a chance to shoot, and this cannot be blamed on the players, no one dares to guarantee that they can target the opponent without a single shot.
Ma Junqiang was also busy, with two brilliant saves to keep Oman's shot out of goal. An Rong looked at him and nodded incessantly. This guy can also observe the opponent's shot at any time when directing the defender to defend, and this alone is much better than many domestic goalkeepers.
In stoppage time, the No. 10 Alfarah of the Oman team used his best strength to shoot vigorously, the angle and power were very good, Ma Junqiang had a prediction in advance, moved two steps, took off into the air, clenched his fist, and hit the ball into the big penalty area, Tang Ling hurriedly destroyed it.
At this time, the game was over, and the Chinese team defeated Oman 2:1 away and entered the top 12 of the qualifiers.
was able to advance, An Rong was able to survive the first hurdle, and Guo Fan, who watched the live broadcast in China, also breathed a sigh of relief. The media praised An Rong, believing that his tactics were better than the previous round. He also praised the three new players, striker Liu Jianwei scored his first goal for the National Olympic team, Xu Ziyi's goal came from Huang Yu's assist, and Tang Ling's goalkeeper was also full of praise. What's funny is that when An Rong recruited three people into the team, who were suspicious of them?
As for Ma Junqiang, Zhao Wenkang and Xu Ziyi, it is natural that they have such a performance, and their strength is already higher than that of ordinary domestic players. All three played well in this game, Ma Junqiang conceded a goal, but he was not responsible, most of the time he blocked Oman's shot, Xu Ziyi had a goal, Zhao Wenkang also had an assist. It seems that if the national Olympic team wants to get a ticket to London, these returnees are indispensable.
*********************
Wang Shihan and Zhou Ying packed their luggage and prepared to go back to Dalian, the school was already on vacation, and there were fewer and fewer people on campus. The two could have gone back a day earlier, but they stayed at school for an extra day just to watch the games of the national Olympic team.
An Rong's team was able to win, and the two were also happy for An Rong. They also called An Rong to express their condolences and congratulate him on leading the team to the top 12 of the competition. An Rong smiled and said that when he went to London, he would come to congratulate him again.
"Zhou Ying, hurry up, what are you doing?" Wang Shihan urged her in Zhou Ying's dormitory, and now everyone else in her dormitory is gone, only Zhou Ying is still there, Wang Shihan also ran to tell her to move faster, don't rub.
Zhou Ying combed her hair and said, "What's the hurry? Isn't Zhang Shujie waiting for you? Look at you, you're in a hurry." ”
Wang Shihan smiled and said: "Don't talk about me, if Chen Zihua also returns to Dalian one day, you are not in a hurry to see him." ”
"I can't even see his ghost now. ”
"Don't worry, you have to believe that there is a lover who will eventually become married. ”
"You and Zhang Shujie are you?"
"There are also you and Chen Zihua. ”
Zhou Ying combed her hair and put things away. She looked at Wang Shihan and said, "If that kid really appears in front of me one day, see if I don't clean him up!"
Wang Shihan smiled bitterly: "Even if you want to clean him up, don't look at me? ”
Zhou Ying smiled, closed the trailer, and said, "Okay, let's go." ”
The two beauties walked out of the dormitory together, and there were few people in the school anymore. There are not many students staying on campus, and the university campus, which has been lively for several months, has finally become deserted.
