"Now the Chinese team has begun to counterattack! Costa Rica did not press on all fronts in the attack just now, and the space in the back field is not large, especially in the middle of the road, the space is relatively small. ”

It is precisely because of the small space in the middle that Xu Ziyi decided to stuff the ball to the side, instead of plugging it straight, although Zhang Shujie's speed is very fast, and Li Mu's speed is not slow, but when the space for sprinting is blocked, no matter how fast the person is, he can't catch the ball.

Therefore, judging from the situation on the field, Xu Ziyi passed the ball to Yan Tao, which was the best way.

Bolaños, who was chasing back, couldn't keep up with Yan Tao's pace, and Tejeda, who was closest to him, wanted to intercept him, but saw Zhao Wenkang running up from behind, and in desperation, Tejeda could only keep up with Zhao Wenkang, so as not to be beaten by the two.

Umana went up to intercept him, Yan Tao lowered his speed a little, and when Umana pounced, he suddenly moved the ball forward, and then instantly accelerated, forcibly passing past Umana, and the hard Umana was not fast, although he tried his best to chase back, he couldn't catch up.

Yan Tao has rushed to the 20-meter area of Costa Rica's backfield, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu in the middle have run into the penalty area, and Xu Ziyi has also come up behind, Xiao Feng is also at the far end of the big penalty area, and there is Zhao Wenkang at the near point, these people have attracted all the defensive center of gravity of Costa Rica, and a little later, Chen Zihua is silently approaching the Costa Rica penalty area.

Tejeda saw that Umana was pulled too far away by Yan Tao, so he had no choice but to give up Zhao Wenkang, and now Zhao Wenkang is farther away from the goal, and the threat is less than Yan Tao, who is unmarked around, so he leaned over, Yan Tao deducted the ball one by one, and squeezed Tejeda into the penalty area, Tejeda did not dare to move too much, if he accidentally kicked Yan Tao down, then he was embarrassed, and the penalty was issued with a yellow card.

Yan Tao glanced at the goal, Costa Rica's defense of Zhang Shujie and others was very tight, and then saw that there was a gap at the top of the arc of the penalty area, Chen Zihua raised his hand to him while running.

Yan Tao knocked the ball back to the edge of the penalty area, and when the ball reached the top of the arc, Chen Zihua was just in time, at this time, there was not a single Costa Rican player within three meters of him, and he even had plenty of time to aim at the angle.

He looked at the top right corner of the goal, tensed the arch of his right foot, and used dexterity to rub the ball up. Navas flew to save, he felt his fingertips rubbing the ball, but he was powerless to save the ball, and before he landed in the air, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhang Shujie in front of him raising his arms with a smile on his face.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his heart: it was over.

When he hit the ground, he looked back and saw that the ball was hanging in the net and had fallen into the goal.

2:0!The Chinese team scored the second goal in the 40th minute by Chen Zihua, and they are already two goals ahead of Costa Rica!

Chen Zihua expanded the score advantage of the Chinese team! This is Chen Zihua's first goal in the World Cup, and he has also become the sixth Chinese player to score in the World Cup!

Chen Zihua roared and ran to the sidelines, to be precise, to Yan Tao, the two had a "close contact", other teammates also ran up, surrounding them in the middle, An Rong smiled on the sidelines and applauded his disciples, among these players, the first one he knew was Chen Zihua, and now, this "old disciple" also scored.

In the stands, Chinese fans waved the five-star red flag, and loud shouts and cheers echoed in the stadium. Zhou Ying stood up, cheering for her boyfriend.

Wang Shihan, who was standing beside her, turned her head to look at Ye Xiaotong and said, "She said that I was before, look at her now, Chen Zihua's ball seems to have been scored by her." ”

Ye Xiaotong said with a smile: "It's normal for her to have this reaction. ”

Wang Shihan said: "That's right, in fact, we are all the same. ”

This is a pun, the first meaning is that each of them is equally happy and excited, and the other means "if our boyfriend scores a goal, the reaction will be the same as Zhou Ying".

Shen Hao leaned back in his seat and said to Chen Hui: "If I say that it is not a problem for the Chinese team to win, do you believe it or not?"

"Believe it, why not? Do I still say that Costa Rica will score three goals next, or will I think that the Chinese team will not score again?"

"Looking forward to a big win for the Chinese team. ”

The 2-0 score was a bit of a demoralizing blow to Costa Rica's players, who conceded just one goal in the group stage, but did not expect to concede more goals in the first knockout stage than in the three group games combined, especially now that the game has been played less than halfway through.

Pinto was a little distressed, before the game he let out a big word, asking the Chinese team to "let the horse come", and now the Chinese team "let the horse pass", and then they conceded two goals before half-time.

Pinto decided to make a substitution at the start of the second half, and he urgently called Calvo to warm up, intending to make him available for the second half.

He boosted the morale of the team, loudly commanding the team to attack, and Ruiz, as the captain, was also cheering for his teammates and doing his best to raise the morale again.

The manager and captain still had some effect, at least the Costa Rican players thought of attacking and trying to equalize. They kick off in the centre circle with about four minutes left before the end of the first half, and it is not certain that there will be injury time due to the lack of time in the first half. However, Costa Rica will still try to organise an attack in the few minutes remaining, and perhaps in their minds, the two-goal lead of the Chinese team may be paralyzed towards the end of the half, and if they are lucky, they may be able to go into the second half with a score of 1:2.

An Rong also considered that the group of young men in the national team would be a little lax in these few minutes, and kept reminding them on the sidelines that they should not be sloppy in defense.

"Don't be careless! Concentrate! Yan Tao, Tang Ling, don't gossip! Look at the defense!"

Yan Tao and Tang Ling were discussing the score with a happy smile, but they were caught by An Rong, and the two immediately stopped chatting.

Ma Junqiang snickered: "Call you two to be named, and be named by An's fingers!"

The Chinese team is not going to attack in this time, leaving some strength until the second half, and now they just need to keep this score well. Costa Rica also attacked unceremoniously, but found that they couldn't pass the ball to the Chinese team's penalty area at all, even if they forced a high ball on the side and passed it to the penalty area, the ball could not fall on the heads of their teammates.

Gamboa's pass was picked off the air by Ma Junqiang, who held the ball in his arms and waited for his teammates to walk away before kicking it out.

Before the ball had landed, the time for the game had arrived, and the referee immediately blew the whistle for the end of the game, and not a minute of stoppage time was given.

"Toot, beet, ——"
