1114 Every Opportunity Counts
The German players' celebration was over, and Loew was overjoyed as he looked at the time, the thirty-second minute, and the last goal had just passed ten minutes. Loew was also overjoyed by this unexpected surprise, although he guessed that Liao Dongyuan, who was inexperienced in the competition, would make a mistake, but he did not expect it to be such a mistake. Although the German team had a lot of luck in this goal, luck will also be part of the success in a major cup competition like this.
On the contrary to the German team, the Chinese team was not so lucky, the first two consecutive shots on goal did not score, and the German team attacked and expanded the score with an unthreatening shot. And both of Germany's goals came in exchange for the last two shots, in other words, after the last goal, the next goal was scored.
Wang Shihan couldn't sit still, she moved around, and said to her companions: "I really don't know what to say...... Well, we are all teammates in the national team, and I can't bear to blame anyone, I believe that every fan thinks the same way as me, but this kind of mistake really shouldn't have happened. This is the knockout stage of the World Cup, not the group stage, and the slightest mistake can be a complete loss. ”
Ye Xiaotong said: "We all understand what you mean, but it has already happened, what can we do? ”
Zhou Ying looked at Zhang Shujie, who was preparing to kick off in the middle circle, and said, "I hope they can turn defeat into victory in the second half." ”
Gu Qingqing sat next to him, listening to the conversation of the three of them, and did not speak, only the pair of beautiful eyebrows frowned deeply.
Liu Fang, who was located behind the goal of the Chinese team, saw the goal clearly in his eyes, he kept shaking his head, and the camera in his hand was also a little shaky. It wasn't until Zhang Shujie teed off that he returned to normal.
Zhang Shujie passed the ball to Xu Ziyi, Xu Ziyi gave it to Liang Xiran, Liang Xiran gave it to Huang Yu, and Huang Yu passed it to Xu Zhixin.
The Chinese team must attack now, even if An Rong doesn't say it, they have to press it up. The German team has two balls in their hands at this time, and this 2:0 is definitely much safer than the previous 1:0. Therefore, at 1:0, he did not dare to shrink the formation, and now that there are two goals, he has also appropriately contracted the formation a little, the purpose of which is to let the players stabilize first, take a breath, and reserve their physical strength to prepare for the next wave of attacks.
Yan Tao and Liang Xiran moved to the midfield one after another, Xu Ziyi and Chen Zihua also advanced their positions, Zhang Shujie also moved from the previous right forward to the center line, Li Mu played the shadow forward, as for the position on the right side, it was left to Chen Zihua and Xu Ziyi, who were inserted back at any time.
As a result, the Chinese team's frontcourt attack quartet formed a somewhat strange position, an irregular diamond-shaped quadrilateral, Zhang Shujie was in the front, Li Mu was slightly behind on the left, Chen Zihua was a little more backward than Li Mu on the right, and Xu Ziyi was the last person in the middle because he had to take on more defensive tasks in the midfield.
Needless to say, the two wings play a crucial role in any attacking tactic. Three of the four people on the side are very fast, and the only slow Zhao Wenkang can also make up for it with his accurate long passes, but the game has been played for more than half an hour, and his iconic long pass has not been seen except in the set-piece.
Zhang Shujie dribbled the ball in the front court, Khedira forced to grab, Zhang Shujie stepped on the ball with his right foot to the left side to strengthen him, and used his body to cleverly card the position, Khedira was not the first time to be broken through by Zhang Shujie, he was a little angry in his heart, and he was directly put down behind his back, the referee blew the whistle, walked in front of Khedira, and touched a yellow card.
"Khedira's foul on Zhang Shujie gave China a well-placed free-kick from a distance of 27 metres. The angle is also just right, basically Zhang Shujie should take this free kick. ”
Germans all know Zhang Shujie's attainments in free kicks, although Zhang Shujie has not scored a free kick in this Cup, but he has scored one in the last World Cup. Besides, this year, the Chinese team did not get a few well-positioned free kicks in the frontcourt, Zhang Shujie showed the opportunity, and now that the opportunity has come, of course he will not miss it.
Kroos, Khedira, Muller, Timo Werner, Mesut Ozil and Reus formed a human wall, and Neuer stood at the left post and shouted at Kroos: "Tony, Tony, lean to the left, stand a little to the left." ”
Cross heard the shouting, glanced back at Neuer, and then walked a little to the left, and the others followed suit. Neuer went to the right post again, looked at the position of the human wall, it was good, it was already very standard, and he walked back to the door.
Zhang Shujie stood in front of the ball, and when the waiting wall was almost standing, he began to step back and measure his pace. Then stand at a 45-degree angle to the ball, keeping a distance of about five meters.
An Rong and Loew both looked at Zhang Shujie who was about to make a free throw, they were both a little nervous, An Rong was worried that the goal would not be scored, and Loew was worried that the goal would be scored. Scoring a free-kick is much more difficult and technically charged than a penalty. That's why there are so many wonderful free-kicks in world football.
Wang Shihan in the stands folded his hands, closed his eyes, and prayed for Zhang Shujie. If she opened her eyes and looked at it, she would find that Zhou Ying and others were also praying, and looking around, many fans of the Chinese team were praying that this ball could win back a city for the Chinese team.
The camera swept around the stands, and the audience in front of the TV also saw the sincerity of the Chinese fans at the scene. He Wei said: "The expressions of many Chinese fans at this time are very different from the past, they are a little serious and serious. It's not a big deal, because for the current Chinese team, every opportunity is crucial. ”
"Beep!" the referee blew his whistle. Zhang Shujie started and run, and when he ran in front of the ball, he stepped on the ball with his left foot, picked up his right leg, and kicked the inside of his foot into the three-quarters below the ball.
The flying ball splashed a lot of grass clippings, the human wall jumped at the same time, the ball bypassed the jumping human wall, like a missile to the German team's goal, when the ball flew into the big penalty area, there was a clear arc, and accompanied by a rapid fall, Neuer dared to slacken, he moved quickly, when the ball flew close, sideways to pounce on the ball.
He didn't touch the ball, and the ball flew off the bottom line about ten centimeters from the post, and the regret of the Chinese fans came from the stands. Wang Shihan also sighed and put down his hands closed in front of his chest.
Zhang Shujie's free kick was very threatening, and the difference between it and the goal was only more than 10 or 20 centimeters, and if the ball was hit within the goal frame, Neuer might not be able to save. ”
The players of both teams left the penalty area and walked to the midfield to gather, and Neuer caught the ball thrown by the caddie behind the billboard and placed it in the small penalty area.
