Chapter 209: To add insult to injury

The pitch gradually returned to normal, and after a brief hiatus, the game resumed, and it was time for Australia to take a corner. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Australia took a tactical corner and Colwill passed the ball to Holman who dribbled sideways towards the middle. This time, Wu Hao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly rushed forward.

Holman passes the ball to Jedinak, who transitions the ball a bit and passes it to McKay. Australia's passing made the Chinese team's defense spread out a little, and a large number of people had gathered in the penalty area before, and they had withdrawn a little outside the penalty area at this time.

Cowell also withdrew, and Du Peng followed. Colwell raised his hand to McKay and shouted, "Matt!

McKay is guarding the ball with his back to prevent it from being snatched away by Yan Tao. Yan Tao's big head made it difficult for him to move a bit, and when he heard Colwill shout like this, he followed the sound and passed the ball directly.

Colwill was far away from the penalty area, farther away from the goal, Du Peng looked back, such a distance, Colwill should not shoot directly, passing is the best choice.

However, Colwill did not pass the ball, McKay and Tim Cahill's runs involved Yan Tao and Li Guobin, and Xu Ziyi also kept an eye on Valery's forward insertion. The interspersed running positions of many Australian players in the front court also pulled a little gap in the Chinese team's defense.

Colwill controlled it twice, and saw that Du Peng didn't mean to come up and force it, so he volleyed with his legs! This shot was really sudden, and the power was great, Du Peng instinctively turned around and blocked it with his body, he only felt a wind at his feet, and the ball was rushing towards the goal against the lawn!

Colwill hit the far post, Ma Junqiang took a step forward, bent his legs and pounced on the ball, fell sideways in front of the goal, flicked the ball with his fingers, and flicked the ball out.

But the ball didn't go out of bounds, and Australia still had a chance to make up the shot, Ma Junqiang saw Tim Cahill rushing up, and couldn't help but scream in his heart: "Oops!" and immediately got up to hold the ball, which looked a little embarrassed.

However, Tim Cahill's movements were noticeably quicker, and Ma Junqiang was still ten centimeters away from holding on, but Cahill's right foot had already hit the ball.

A few pieces of mud splashed on Ma Junqiang's face, and he didn't bother to wipe them now, just looked back at the goal, where the black and white football was lying in the corner of the goal, and it seemed to have some spinning. Soon, he heard cheers from the Australian players.

The score was clearly displayed on the big screen on the sidelines, Australia 1:1 China, goalscorer Tim Cahill, and the goal was scored in 34 minutes.

'Australia equalised, it was Tim Cahill's goal. Colwill's long-range shot was saved by Ma Junqiang, and Cahill made a supplementary shot into the net, and the score was 1:1!" Liu Jianhong said with a little regret.

Gary Cahill was celebrating his goal with his players, facing the stands and greeting the fans. Holger Osik excitedly high-fived his assistant, and finally equalized the score, and the two sides returned to the same running line.

Gao Hongbo's face did not change and sat in the coach's seat. Li Mu also sat upright on the bench, with no expression on his face.

Ma Junqiang stood up from the ground depressed, muttering something unknown in his mouth. It's hard to say whose responsibility is for the goal, Colwill's shot is low and the angle is good, and it is not easy for Ma Junqiang to save. And when Tim Cahill stepped forward to shoot, Li Guobin was also close to him, and he could only say that he had a problem of ability, which had nothing to do with the attitude of the game.

In the Japanese team's hotel, the Japanese players and head coach Zaccheroni watched the game live. As the first team to reach the finals, they are also concerned about who they will be against in a few days. Relatively speaking, the Japanese team is more willing to meet the Chinese team, because they feel that the Chinese team is very strong this time, stronger than previous years, and better than Australia.

The Japanese team has always been willing to play against strong teams. Now, in their eyes, the Chinese team can be called a strong team in Asia. But how strong is the Chinese team? We have to compete with the Japanese team before we can make a conclusion.

Zhang Shujie knocked the ball to Gao Lin at the center circle point, ran forward by himself, Gao Lin passed back to Deng Zhuoxiang, and Deng Zhuoxiang passed Xu Ziyi again.

There are still more than ten minutes left in the first half to end, and the Chinese team will certainly not give up the opportunity to exceed the score again. Australia has figured out the offensive routine of the Chinese team, after the midfielders get the ball, as long as they want to attack, the first time must be to find Zhang Shujie, as for another striker named Gao Lin, it is simply used to confuse people, so far, Gao Lin has not shot a single shot.

Chen Hui sighed: "The score was still pulled back by Australia." ”

Shen Hao pouted and said: "This is also expected, Australia is not a fish belly in Asian football." Although the strength of the Chinese team has improved compared with previous years, it also depends on Zhang Shujie's gang, but don't forget their age, the eldest Ma Junqiang and Zhao Wenkang are still a few months away from turning twenty-two years old. ”

"I know all of that. Just ......"

"I understand your feelings, and it's uncomfortable to watch your country's team get back to the score after taking the lead, and I'm the same. ”

Wang Junsong, who was sitting on the other side of Chen Hui, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's still early for the game." ”

The game was indeed early, an attack of the Chinese team was defused by Schwarzer, Australia counterattacked, the ball was stealed by Zhao Wenkang in the midfield, Zhao Wenkang passed the ball to Yan Tao, McKay forced up, Yan Tao passed to Li Guobin, Cahill pounced again, and Valery also plugged in, Li Guobin had no choice but to pass the ball back to Ma Junqiang.

The ball was passed back and forth twice between the goalkeeper and several defenders of the Chinese team, and it never passed half time.

The Chinese team is now trying to stabilize the situation for the time being, and Australia is a little fierce. It seems that after the goal, the Australian players were very vigorous, and once overwhelmed the Chinese team on the field, making the Chinese team's players only defensive.

The Australian fans are also very loud, as long as their own player is in possession, they will shout the player's name loudly and loudly, and they will also encourage the player with applause. Head coach O'Syk is very satisfied with the atmosphere, and it is this way to ensure that the team can overtake the score.

In comparison, the fans of the Chinese team are much worse, not as professional as the other party, mainly because in recent years, Chinese fans have rarely seen those big scenes, and there is no one to lead, so they lag behind Australian fans in terms of momentum.

Some Chinese fans even scolded: "Shouting your mother, shouting, it's noisy, shit!"

"Damn, those Australian bastards can't just take it easy?"

"Shouting, really ****** quality. ”

Chinese fans can only fight back in this way, in fact, this is also a kind of jealousy, why foreign fans are always much more professional than domestic fans? To a certain extent, it is also related to the results of the Chinese team. If you play well, you can go to a bigger stadium and fans can learn many ways to cheer for the team, such as the Mexican waves that can often be seen in European football and the World Cup, which are not seen in Chinese fans. At least not yet.

Colwill's shot from the left side of the six-yard box went wide of the lintel, but it scared the Chinese players a lot. This time I didn't concede a goal, I can only say that the Chinese team is lucky, and I don't know if there will be good luck next time.

Gao Hongbo couldn't sit still, stood up and walked to the sidelines, his hands expanded into a trumpet shape: "Pay attention to defense! Attack immediately after defending! Zhang Shujie, you stay in front! Xu Ziyi, participate in the offense more! Yan Tao, be more active!"

His voice was loud and was heard by a lot of fans at the scene. Liu Jianhong looked at the Chinese team too passively, and said worriedly: "The Chinese team still has to find an opportunity to attack as soon as possible, and blindly defending will only reap the consequences!" However, Li Mu's absence has indeed greatly affected the Chinese team in terms of offense, and the front line can only rely on Zhang Shujie. ”

Liu Jianhong's words directly ignored Gao Lin, no wonder, the current three shots of the Chinese team are from Zhang Shujie, and Gao Lin is basically about to disappear.

Teammates all believe in Zhang Shujie, even veteran players like Deng Zhuoxiang and Qu Bo have more trust in Zhang Shujie, although they and Zhang Shujie are not friends in life, but on this green field, the leading striker from Parma is the guarantee of winning. If the Chinese team wants to go further, they need Zhang Shujie's goal, and Gao Lin obviously does not meet this standard.

Competitive competition is based on strength.

The Chinese team controlled the ball in the midfield, Xu Ziyi and Deng Zhuoxiang poured two feet to each other, and the latter handed the ball to Zhao Wenkang, Yan Tao ran quickly past him, Zhao Wenkang passed with a kick, Yan Tao took the ball down and crossed.

Zhang Shujie at the front point jumped high and pressed Vilsick's header to attack the goal, but Vilsick had a small squeeze for him in the air, making his header uncomfortable enough, and he didn't top the middle part, and went directly to the air.

Schwarzer jumped up to pick up the ball, Gao Lin also jumped up, Oglovsky also jumped into the air, and the battle between the three was finally won by Gao Lin, Gao Lin also hit the goal with a header, the ball hit his forehead, flew out of the goal frame, and landed outside the baseline.

This was Gao Lin's first shot of the game, and although he didn't score, it could barely be called a good opportunity he found, which was really not easy.

The Chinese team returned to defense, Schwarzer put the ball on the corner of the small penalty area, and was about to kick it out, captain Nel said: "Don't drive over first, give it to me." We scored from their left flank, where they were weak defensively. ”

Schwarzer passed the ball to Nell, who repeated his trick and started from the left wing of the Chinese team. Last time, Australia won a corner in this way and used tactics to knock on the door of the Chinese team. Now that this trick has tasted sweet, Australia doesn't mind doing it again.

Forty-one minutes into the game, Australia were looking to take the lead before half-time. Holman received a pass from Nell, and he was about to dribble forward when he saw Curd Bo coming towards him. He always thought that Qu Bo was just a player with speed and no skills, and he was a little careless when he was not comparable to that Zhang Shujie. At the moment when he deducted Qu Bo, Xu Ziyi shot out from under the diagonal and forcibly snatched the ball away.

This time Australia's idea fell through and was ruined by Xu Ziyi, who grabbed the ball and passed diagonally to Zhang Shujie, and the Chinese team counterattacked on the spot. Zhang Shujie's speed was very fast, Vershik didn't keep up for a while, and he was about to form a single knife, Verheik rushed up and kicked the ball with his body inertia, and it happened that Zhang Shujie took the ball and led forward, Vilsick's not only did not step on the ball, but also stepped on Zhang Shujie's left foot.

Zhang Shujie tilted his body and fell on the lawn, and fell to the ground along with Wilchik. Carney, who arrived just in time, kicked the ball into the field.

The referee didn't blow the whistle because from a distance, Wilshick didn't seem to have committed a foul, which was more like a reasonable collision. Even the teammates of the Chinese team didn't care too much, but what the specific situation was, I'm afraid only the two parties knew.

The game was still going on, and Vilchick had gotten up from the ground and was back in the game. He didn't reach out to pull Zhang Shujie, and let Zhang Shujie fall to the ground like this.

The audience in front of the TV did not notice that the camera had moved to the backfield of the Chinese team at this time, and many people did not know that the team's ace striker was unable to get up on the turf.

Zhao Wenkang felt that something was wrong, ran to Zhang Shujie, and grabbed his waist from behind: "What's wrong with you?

Zhang Shujie held down his left foot and didn't speak, but just shook his head with his teeth in a hurry.

Zhao Wenkang faintly felt that something was wrong: "Could it be that we are injured? This is really worse for us!"

Since the referee had already gone away, Zhao Wenkang gestured to the fourth official, saying that there was someone here who needed treatment. The fourth official notified the referee with a headset, and the referee looked back and immediately signaled a timeout.

The attacking Australian players also had to kick the ball off the touchline.
