Chapter 213: Applause rang out

It was a penalty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Chinese team members were very happy, and Xu Ziyi even stepped forward to pull Li Mu up, and the two hugged slightly. Xu Ziyi also asked him, "How is the injury?"

Li Mu didn't answer, just smiled.

The referee not only gave the Chinese team a chance to take a penalty, but also gave Ogroveski a yellow card for the foul, considering that he did not intend to foul, and Li Mu did not have an obvious chance to score, so he did not show a red card.

The Australian players surrounded the referee and theorized that Oglovski did not foul and that Li Mu fell on his own. What's more, they also thought that this was a fake fall, and it should be Li Mu who received the yellow card! Nel argued the most fiercely, and saliva splashed on the referee's face.

The Chinese players were not to be outdone, separating the opponent from the referee, Zhao Wenkang also said that giving a yellow card is cheap for you, and it is a good thing not to punish your people, so let's have fun while stealing it.

The fans of the two teams also fought in the stands, and although neither side could understand what the other was saying, no matter what, they should support their teams at this juncture, and for a while there were endless boos and shouts.

Liu Jianhong also said: "The Chinese team got a very valuable penalty, and now the game has reached the 77th minute, this penalty is very important, after all, there is not too much time left for the Chinese team." ”

The referee was very resolute and it was a penalty for sure. The Australian players were still arguing, and the referee was impatient, so he gave the loudest Nell a yellow card and shut him up.

The yellow card really worked, and no one in the Australian team dared to object, but they just walked away unconvinced.

Li Mu put the ball at the penalty spot, and it seemed that the ball was personally taken by him. Chen Hui and Shen Hao looked at the white No. 10 standing on the line of the big forbidden area, and they couldn't help but get nervous. Equally nervous are Chinese fans, who have been standing a little anxious about Gao Hongbo.

Schwarzer jumped around in front of the goal, interfering with Li Mu, who only didn't see it, he heard the referee's whistle, took a deep breath, and ran away.

Shooting a right-footed shot into the bottom right corner of the goal, Schwarzer misjudged the direction and pounced on the other side, and the ball rolled into the net without hindrance.

There was a sudden burst of wild shouts from the stands, Chen Hui was so excited that he slapped the table in the press box, and Shen Hao grabbed Zheng Dawei's shoulders and kept shaking, almost shaking Zheng Dawei into a concussion.

Gao Hongbo also waved his arms a few times, and then walked back to the coach's seat and sat down. Osik on the other side is one hand around his chest and the other hand dragging his chin.

Liu Jianhong's voice suddenly became louder: "Li Mu scored this penalty and made the score 2:2 for the Chinese team!" This is also Li Mu's fourth Asian Cup goal, and in Zhang Shujie's absence, he is expected to hit the top scorer!"

Teammates rushed to Li Mu, Li Mu did not celebrate after the goal, he just felt a terrible pain in his ankle. He twisted his ankle and made a feint when he took the free throw, deceived Schwarzer, and kicked the ball in. That twist also made him feel painful, and even the joy after the goal was diluted.

Yu Dahai, who was warming up off the field, was replaced first, he replaced Qu Bo, and Cruise was still warming up, it is estimated that Osik saw that the ball was lost, and the original substitution plan had to be canceled and reconsidered.

Yu Dahai appeared on the stage, and the players surrounding Li Mu gradually dispersed, and at this time, Li Mu limped back to the half-court slowly.

Yes, he did limp back!

This is undoubtedly a signal to everyone: Li Mu is already enduring the injury game!

Not counting injury time, there are still ten minutes left in the game, and it is impossible for the Chinese team to continue to attack in this situation. Gao Hongbo looked at Li Mu and regretted that he had changed people too early. Now Li Mu can only insist, even if it is a walk on the field.

When Osik saw him like this, a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

Australia's central circle kicked off and attacked directly, they didn't want to play extra time, it was purely a physical drain. Li Muji was no longer a threat, and Australia didn't have too many concerns, and after Xu Ziyi struggled to disrupt Valery's pass off the touchline, Australia finally made a substitution.

It was their first substitution of the game, with striker Cruze replacing Jedinak and attacking players for defenders. Osike originally intended to replace Colwill, but Li Mu tied the score, and he saw Li Mu's walking posture, so he temporarily decided to replace Jedinak.

Then he called Emmorton to warm up, and it looked like he was going to gamble on the last ten minutes.

The Chinese team's attack was weak, Zhao Wenkang passed a good ball on the side, this time he didn't pass it to Li Mu, he knew that Li Mu could no longer run, and his injury would only worsen if he ran again, so he passed it to Gao Lin. But Gao Lin was really not angry, stopped the ball three meters away, and stopped the ball to the opposing defender.

The Australian fans gave him no small boos.

Osik smiled slightly, in addition to the few players who played in Europe, Deng Zhuoxiang was barely qualified, and the other players were not to be afraid, Gao Lin was one of them.

The last link of the attack could not be formed, and the Chinese team was determined to play defense, and then drag it to extra time, and then try its best to drag it to the penalty shootout, and the two sides will try their luck to see who enters the final final. Australia attacked with all their might, bombarding the Chinese team's goal indiscriminately.

Ma Junqiang became the busiest person in this time period, he made high and low blocks in front of the goal, and tried his best to keep the goal open!

"Ma Junqiang saved Colwill's shot!"

"Ma Junqiang blocked Cahill's header!"

"Cruzey's volley is very powerful, but Ma Junqiang is like a god at the moment!"

"Australia's two consecutive shots on goal were denied by Ma Junqiang!"

“……”

The mood of Chinese fans can no longer be described as nervous, it is simply terrifying, Chen Hui's group of Chinese reporters watched Ma Junqiang pounce forward and backward, and his throat couldn't stop rolling, for fear that if he was not careful, the ball would drill into the goal of the Chinese team.

Ma Junqiang also felt frightened, no matter which Australian player was holding the ball, his eyes were fixed on that player, and he didn't even dare to wipe the sweat from the corners of his eyes, for fear that something would go wrong. He was also cursing in his heart, how could ten minutes pass so long.

Emerton was already on the pitch and he replaced Carney. The Chinese team now has only Li Mu alone in the front court, not that he doesn't want to go back to defense, but his ankle forces him not to dare to exercise too much, many times he stands in the front court and does not move, watching his teammates block in his own penalty area.

The fourth referee raised the LCD card for stoppage time, which was three minutes. Ma Junqiang scolded his mother, why do you want to make up for three minutes, isn't it okay to do one minute?

To break through the Chinese team's iron bucket formation, Australia will need a bit of luck. Three minutes, they only have three minutes to find their luck.

Two minutes into stoppage time, Ma saved Mackay's long-range shot and gave him a corner.

It was still Colwill who took the penalty, and there was no tactic to speak of at this time, Colwill was directly punished to the penalty area and let his teammates scramble.

Li Guobin was defeated in the battle with Cahill, Cahill's forehead hit, the top was too positive, Ma Junqiang out of the goalkeeper's instinct, bent down and blocked it with his legs, blocking the corner of the small penalty area. Unfortunately, Emerton was there just after he came on and the ball was in the right direction.

Ma Junqiang's heart jumped, and the Chinese team's penalty area immediately became chaotic, Emmorton didn't think about it, he raised his leg and hit the ball, Ma Junqiang saved with the fastest reaction, but it was too late......

The ball, after all, slipped past him and into the goal......

The Australian players, the stands, and the bench were all boiling! The incendiary head was like a pot of boiling water, constantly bubbling.

The fans, stands, and benches of the Chinese team were silent, Gao Hongbo sat in the coach's seat, silent, Chen Hui pursed his lips and locked his eyebrows, looking at the court, Shen Hao simply fell on the table and let out a long sigh.

Ma Junqiang was lying on the lawn, his face buried in the grass, and his expression could not be seen; Xu Ziyi sat on the ground, looking up at the score and time; Zhao Wenkang leaned against the goalpost, his eyes did not know where to look; Li Mu stood in the front court, his hands on his waist, his head down......

There were only 40 seconds left in the game when Australia took that corner, and after they scored the ball, there were less than 15 seconds left in the game, and now ...... The time has come.

The Chinese team kicked off in the center circle as usual, and then the game ended.

It's game over!

With a score of 3:2, Australia won the final victory.

Australia's players were ecstatic and they reached the final. The members of the Chinese team looked at them with different looks in their eyes.

The youngest Xu Ziyi didn't seem to be able to stand the blow, so he actually squatted down and sobbed; Zhao Wenkang went over to comfort him, Ma Junqiang walked into the dressing room without saying a word, no one saw the tears in the corners of his eyes; Li Mu lay on the ground, looking at the sky, the night was very beautiful.

Liu Jianhong said in a hoarse voice: "The game is over, Australia has defeated the Chinese team. It's a pity that the Chinese team didn't make it to the final as fans thought, and could only compete with the South Korean team for third place. But the players still gave a wonderful game, Li Mu came out with an injury, almost exhausted all his energy, he is a hero, not a loser! Although there was a disgraceful red card in the game, this does not prevent us from respecting this national football team! The Chinese team entered the top four again after seven years! Today we lost, but many of our players are still very young, Li Mu, Xu Ziyi, Zhao Wenkang, Ma Junqiang, as well as Yan Tao and Zhang Shujie who were not on the court, these players have brought vitality to the Chinese team, and we should give them a round of applause. ”

Not long after Liu Jianhong's words were finished, the Chinese fans seemed to have discussed and dedicated the warmest applause to the soldiers of the Chinese team. Ma Junqiang, who had just walked to the entrance of the players' tunnel, looked up in amazement and looked at the stands on both sides, just as some fans were also looking at him, and several older fans even gave him a thumbs up.

Xu Ziyi, who heard the applause, cried even more fiercely. He lost but was still loved by the fans, and he felt that he didn't deserve the applause.

He is still too young after all, he was born in April 1992, and he is not yet 19 years old.

Nell took off his jersey, walked over to Li Mu, who was lying on the ground, and stretched out his hand to him. Li Mu was stunned and stretched out his hand.

Nell pulled him up and handed him the jersey, Li Mu also took off his jersey and handed it to him, the two exchanged jerseys, Nell said to him: "I violated you in the game, but I didn't mean to." ”

After speaking, he was afraid that he would not understand, so he made a few simple gestures.

Li Mu smiled and shook his head: "It's okay." ”

McKay found Zhao Wenkang and Valery found Xu Ziyi, and they all exchanged jerseys with each other, and several of the other players also changed. Only Ma Junqiang went to the locker room too early and did not exchange the jersey.

Gao Hongbo shook hands with Osike, and then walked to the locker room. Li Mu, supported by Deng Zhuoxiang, also limped to the locker room, and Xu Ziyi, with tears on his face, walked to the locker room with Zhao Wenkang.

Chen Hui originally frowned, but after hearing the applause, he suddenly showed a smile, and Shen Hao asked, "What are you laughing at? The Chinese team lost, and you can still laugh?"

"It's okay to lose, I'm sure tomorrow will be better. ”

"Tomorrow?" Shen Hao's mind didn't seem to have turned yet.

"Understand for yourself. Gone, ready for a press conference. Saying that, Chen Hui walked towards the stands first.
