In the 43rd minute of the first half, the Japanese team was scored 1:1 by Keisuke Honda!

Guo Fan's face in the VIP seat was not very good-looking. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 He glanced at the Japanese team members who were celebrating, and then moved his gaze to Camacho, but because of the distance, he couldn't see what the expression on Camacho's face was.

Liu Jianhong said in a low voice: "The first half of the game was almost over, but the Japanese team still equalized the score. Just now, there was a defensive mistake in the backcourt of the Chinese team, and I felt that several players were panicking. Ma Junqiang seems to be accusing his teammates of poor defense?"

On the court, Ma Junqiang roared at Yang Dong: "I said what are you doing?" Shinji Okazaki Du Peng has already gone back to defend, you just keep an eye on Keisuke Honda, why are you running over?"

Yang Dong didn't reply, just walked away silently. He does take the most responsibility for the goal he conceded. Zhao Wenkang walked up and patted Ma Junqiang: "Forget it, everything happened." ”

Zhao Wenkang is also helpless, in the process of the Japanese team's attack, Yang Dong is not the only one who has problems, except for Yan Tao, who has been staring at Maeda Liaoichi, the other two are somewhat out of character.

Yan Tao spat on the ground, how he wished he could have three heads and six arms, so that he could also help Ma Junqiang resist a few more times. What he didn't know was that Ma Junqiang was missing his defensive teammates of the National Olympic team at this time, and if Tang Ling was there, he would not make such a low-level mistake. He even felt that the young Liang Xiran might be better than those two.

Li Mu looked up at the time on the big screen, shook his head and walked to the front court, with words in his mouth. Zhang Shujie scolded softly: "What a bastard!"

There is not much time left in the first half, and the Chinese team is not in a hurry to attack after kick-off, to be precise, the midfielders are not in a hurry to hand over the ball to the striker, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu are not depressed at one point, counting injury time, there are still about four minutes to say the least, it is possible to try to organize another attack, why do so many people give up?

Of the few midfielders, only Zhao Wenkang is still running, and the others are ......

Ma Junqiang was so angry in front of the goal that he almost jumped to his feet: "******, the game is not over yet, attack! What do you always do with the return pass? I didn't see Zhang Shujie and Li Mu asking for the ball!"

After all, the Chinese team failed to play the attack, and the time for injury time was up, and at the end of the first half of the game, the players from both sides walked to the locker room with a score of 1:1.

*******************

Wang Shihan leaned back on the sofa and was about to drink saliva, but the mobile phone rang. When I picked it up, the caller ID was Zhou Ying's name.

"Zhou Ying, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I'm not in a good mood, chatting with you. ”

"Is it the reason why Chen Zihua didn't play?"

"I don't know what the old man Camacho thinks. The main midfielder of the National Olympic team can only sit on the bench under him. ”

Wang Shihan didn't know how to comfort her after hearing this, her boyfriend couldn't play, and she could also understand what it was like to be a girlfriend, because she was also from the past.

"Otherwise, Zhou Ying, I'll accompany you, how about it?"

"Okay, then you can come to my house. ”

The two of them live not far away, in the same neighborhood, just a few minutes' walk away.

Zhou Ying was home alone, and when she saw her best friend coming, she felt a little better. Although she was still worried about whether Chen Zihua would be able to play.

"It would be nice if Coach An Rong was coaching the national team. Zhou Ying sighed. At present, Chen Zihua estimates that only An Rong can trust him 100%.

Wang Shihan didn't speak, just hugged Zhou Ying from behind, and the two slowly walked to the sofa and sat down. After a while, Wang Shihan said: "Don't worry too much, we all know Chen Zihua's strength very well." I believe that one day, he will become an integral part of the national team, just like Ajay. ”

Zhou Ying let out a soft "um" and nodded fiercely.

On TV, Liu Jianhong and Zhang Lu are analyzing the performance of the players of the two teams in the first half, basically the Japanese team as a whole is very strong, while the Chinese team only has the five players who have played overseas and seen the world well, and the other players are very average.

The camera cuts to the pitch, where the players of both teams have re-entered the tunnel of the players. Neither manager has made any changes to the starting line-up at the moment, and it is still the same team as in the first half.

"The lineup and personnel of the Chinese team and the Japanese team are the same as in the first half. It is understandable that the Japanese team did not make substitutions, after all, they still had an advantage in the first half, but it is a little puzzling that the Chinese team did not make substitutions. In particular, the midfield is basically dominated by the Japanese team. What do you think about this?"

Zhang Lu pondered: "First of all, I agree with Jianhong's statement, in fact, where is the gap between the Chinese team and the Japanese team? Needless to say, the forwards, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu are definitely stronger than Maeda Liaoichi; we also have a Yan Tao on the back line, who can preside over the overall situation, and the comparison of goalkeepers is also stronger than Kawashima Yongji. So in the midfield position, only Zhao Wenkang can compete with the opponent. Several other players could not hold the ball at all, or were afraid to hold it. I'm a little surprised that the Chinese midfielder is available, but Camacho doesn't. ”

"Director Zhang must be talking about Chen Zihua and Xu Ziyi. ”

Zhang Lu said with a smile, but didn't answer, just said: "Judging from the first half, Zheng Zhi, who played in the front midfield, did not play a role in organizing the attack, causing Zhang Shujie and Li Mu to look a little isolated in the front court. ”

As soon as Zhang Lu finished speaking, Keisuke Honda, the core of the Japanese team's midfield, sent a beautiful straight stopper, Maeda Liaoichi restrained Yan Tao, let Shinji Okazaki insert and successfully catch the ball, Du Peng used his hands and feet behind his back, but still did not stop him.

"Hell!" Yan Tao scolded. looked at Ryoichi Maeda beside him, and wanted to go up to make up for the leak but didn't dare. He was afraid that he would be careless, so he gave Maeda a chance.

Shinji Okazaki burst into the penalty area with the ball, his teammate's return defense was not yet in place, Yan Tao approached him a little, not only to maintain the distance from Ryoichi Maeda, but also to try his best to deal with the situation on Shinji Okazaki's side. Ma Junqiang had already gone out to block, and he estimated that Shinji Okazaki should be able to hit the far corner, so he consciously had an extra eye.

However, Shinji Okazaki chose the near corner, Ma Junqiang was a little surprised, but he still fell to the ground and blocked the ball with his calf, and the ball rolled diagonally towards the small penalty area. Although the destination of the ball has been outside the range of the goal, the crisis in front of the Chinese team has not been resolved. Makoto Hasebe rushed up, there was already an empty goal in front of him, and if he touched the ball first, the consequences would be self-evident.

"Danger! Ma Junqiang has no time to save anymore!" Liu Jianhong was a little anxious. Ma Junqiang was more anxious than him, struggling to get up and make a last-ditch effort.

Yan Tao immediately made a decision, no longer bothered with Maeda Ryoichi, flashed past Ma Junqiang, and at the moment when Shinji Okazaki shot, he raised his foot, fell backwards, and slid forward in the air.

The ball hit his foot and bounced off the baseline.

Yan Tao fell to the ground, shocked, and Ma Junqiang, who was also palpitating, pulled him up and patted him on the back.

The Japanese team took a corner kick, and this time Li Mu also returned to the penalty area to participate in the defense, and there was only one Zhang Shujie in the front.

Japan's high school defender Maya Yoshida arrived in the Chinese penalty area, and it was his first time in the team's attack, and he did not cross the halfway line in the first half. Presumably, at half-time, Zaccheroni told him to do so. When Yan Tao saw him coming up, he temporarily gave up guarding Maeda Ryoichi and went to keep an eye on Yoshida Maya.

Keisuke Honda's corner kick was very targeted, and it was clearly aimed at Maya Yoshida. Yan Tao jumped with him to fight for the point, and in the end, Yan Tao relied on his excellent bounce and good positioning, and beat Maya Yoshida, who was two centimeters taller than him, and pushed the ball hard to the outside of the penalty area.

Inadvertently, Yan Tao gave the ball to Zhang Shujie. But according to this kid's character, he will definitely say that he did it on purpose. Zhang Shujie stopped the ball, he was now in his own half, and was about to turn around, but saw Yasuyuki Konno forcing over.

It was a little difficult for Yayuki Konno to defend him alone, Zhang Shujie stepped on the ball, wiped it to the side, changed his feet again, and easily shook Yayuki Konno. After passing, he didn't take it much, and knocked the ball to Li Mu, who was running forward.

Zhang Shujie ran forward non-stop, Li Mu didn't have the idea of showing off his skills, he was very clear about a player like him, when to excel and when to cooperate with his teammates.

The ball returned to Zhang Shujie, and when he saw that there was a large space around him, he boldly moved forward alone with the ball, bringing it out more than ten meters away before someone went up to defend him. Maybe the Japanese team didn't expect him to be so unscrupulous in the middle of the road with the ball, so they carelessly let him run so far.

The Chinese team's attack has hit the backfield of the Japanese team. Ironically, it was thanks to the tacit understanding between Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, as well as Zhang Shujie's deterrence against the Japanese team, that the Chinese team could pass through the midfield so smoothly.

Perhaps, among the five midfielders on the field, only Zhao Wenkang can give some help to the striker. Team members like Zheng Zhi and Zhao Xu are not weak in themselves. As Zhang Lu said before, they are quite good in China, but when they play against strong teams such as the Japanese team, they always can't play their due strength.

Sometimes, they may not be able to get through the psychological hurdle.

Endo Baoren is staring at Zhang Shujie, Zhang Shujie is protecting the ball while observing the position of his teammates, Zhao Wenkang responds on the right, Li Mu on the left, and a little further to the left, it is Yu Dahai. Zhang Shujie played a false trick and pretended to pass the ball to Li Mu, attracting the attention of Japanese players to Li Mu. But he picked it up at his feet and the ball flew to Yu Dahai on the left flank.

At this time, Li Mu accelerated and ran towards the Japanese team's penalty area.

Yu Dahai saw Li Mu's intentions, he passed the ball to Li Mu with one kick, but he didn't pass it very well, and the ball was broken by Atsuto Uchida, and Li Mu, who was running and wanted to catch the ball, also slowly stopped, and shook his hand with a sigh.

Yu Dahai can pick up the pass just now, so that he can avoid the interception of Atsuto Uchida, even if the pass is not very good, with Li Mu's ability, he can also find a way to control the ball. But unfortunately, Yu Dahai didn't seem to think of this.

The Chinese team's attack also came to an abrupt halt with the goal conceded. Fortunately, Atsuto Uchida didn't pass it out immediately after grabbing the ball, Yu Dahai was too ruthless in the counter-robbery, kicking Atsuto Uchida to the ground, and the referee blew him for a foul and gave him a yellow card.

It was the first yellow card of the game and, interestingly, the first free-kick of the game.

Atsuto Uchida got up from the ground and quickly drove the ball out, and Seiichi Hasebe received the ball, paused for less than a second, and then passed the ball to Shinji Okazaki, who then slashed it and handed it to Keisuke Honda in the middle.

During this period, Zheng Zhi, Yang Dong and Zhao Xu of the Chinese team were obviously slow in their reactions, and they did not keep up with the rhythm of their opponents at all. Liu Jianhong couldn't help but sigh: "The midfield of the Chinese team can't stop the Japanese team at all, it's like nothing." ”

The blocking of the midfield has become an ornament, and the pressure on the defense is great, but fortunately there is a Yan Tao, which can cause some obstacles to the Japanese team's offensive, otherwise it will be a big trouble.

The Japanese team's midfielder fired three arrows at once, each of which was not good, and only Zhao Wenkang, who was staring at Shinji Kagawa, could save people a little bit. As for Shinji Okazaki and Keisuke Honda...... It is better to expect others to defend them, than to expect Ma Junqiang to save their shots.

On the left and right wings, Yuto Nagatomo and Atsuto Uchida also came to the backfield of the Chinese team.
