Ma Junqiang fished the ball out of the goal, kicked it out, and cursed in his mouth: "Damn!" Obviously, as a goalkeeper, he felt very uncomfortable losing the ball. But being broken by Messi is not a shameful thing, it can only be said that Ma Junqiang has too high requirements for himself.

In the press booth, Chen Hui said to Shen Hao: "I just said that Yuan Chengye would have hidden dangers on his side, but I didn't expect it to work so soon." ”

Shen Hao smiled bitterly: "So it's better for you to talk less, and concentrate on watching the score and making a record." ”

After the equaliser, Argentina seemed to be playing while the iron was hot, and Sampaoli was about to use the second substitution in the team, replacing Mascherano with Pastore, and since Pastore is an attacking midfielder, midfielder Rodriguez will have to take Mascherano's place and be involved in more defence. And the reason why Sampaoli replaced Mascherano was not only because of tactics, but also because he was old and a little lacking in physical strength. A 33-year-old midfielder can't be expected to play the full game in the high-intensity World Cup semi-finals.

The Chinese team still has no substitutions. Although the game has reached the 70th minute, because An Rong does not have many cards on the bench, all the strong players except for the suspended Liang Xiran, the rest are on the field. However, An Rong still has a "secret move", that is, he can let Xiao Feng play, and at the same time let Xu Zhixin go to the right winger, but in this case, the Chinese team's midfield will be unbalanced. You must know that although Argentina is nominally 343, it is actually a bit like 3412 when it is played, and Di Maria's frequent retreat to get the ball is a strong addition to Argentina's midfield. Not only that, but in terms of numbers, the Chinese team's midfielder will be two fewer than Argentina's.

Zhang Shujie kicked off in the midfield, Argentina was encouraged by Messi's goal, and the morale of the whole team was very high. The Chinese team took the ball in less than 30 seconds before Argentina snatched the ball.

The Chinese team was forced to go into defense, so there was the same scene on the field as the Chinese team against Argentina: half-court firepower suppression. It's just that last time it was China that suppressed Argentina, and this time, it was Argentina that suppressed China.

Correa distributed the ball to the middle on the side, Dybala handed it to Messi after controlling the ball in the middle, Yan Tao and Messi faced each other, Messi took a few steps and made a move to pass the ball at his feet, but did not really want to pass Yan Tao, but picked the ball to Icardi.

Compared with the first half, Icardi's presence is much stronger, Messi's pick pass was pushed out by Tang Ling, Xu Ziyi's clearance did not go too far, and was obtained by Pastore, who had just come on the field, Li Mu retreated from the front court to defend him, Pastore knocked the ball to Di Maria, Yuan Chengye immediately pushed in front of Di Maria, keeping a distance of three meters. Zhao Wenkang also came back from the front to assist him in the defense.

Di Maria didn't get there in front of the two, he handed the ball back to Pastore, Chen Zihua stood in front of Pastore, probably to see that he was far away from the goal, Chen Zihua did not stick too close. Pastore looked in the direction of the goal, and suddenly hit the goal with his right foot, and the ball flew out from Chen Zihua's raised feet. Ma Junqiang saw that the ball was very fast and the angle was more tricky, so he didn't dare to be careless, and after moving a few steps quickly, he flew to save the ball.

"Pastore's shot is powerful. He had just been on the field for less than three minutes when he fired a long-range shot from 26 meters, and Ma Junqiang saved the ball. But the ball wasn't out of bounds yet, it was still in the box. ”

After the ball fell into the penalty area, Yan Tao hurriedly cleared the siege, saying that it was to clear the siege, but in fact it was aimed at Zhang Shujie, but the ball did not fall to Zhang Shujie's side, and Fazio pushed the ball back to his teammates.

The ball was still in possession here in Argentina, they controlled the ball on the perimeter and patiently looked for opportunities. Xu Yang said: "Now Argentina has also played an offensive climax. Argentina withstood the offensive tide of the Chinese team before, and now it depends on whether the Chinese team can withstand the offensive climax of Argentina. ”

Dybala and Messi made a short one-two at the top of the arc of the penalty area, past Xu Ziyi, and then entered Dybala to control the ball between Yan Tao and Tang Ling, he can hit the goal in this position, and it is facing the goal, Yan Tao and Tang Ling must pinch him. However, Dybala did not shoot, he knocked the ball towards Icardi, Chen Zihua stepped forward to make up for the defense, but Icardi missed the foot and leaked the ball to Messi.

Messi, who was on the right side of the penalty area, was already facing the goal alone, and He Wei was a little anxious: "Messi got another very good opportunity, the Chinese team is dangerous!"

Huang Yu immediately stuck to Messi, Messi gently buckled the ball with his right foot, flashed out of the space in front of Huang Yu, Ma Junqiang immediately attacked, Messi gently picked up with his left foot, and the ball hoisted to the goal of the Chinese team.

The moment they saw Messi's shot, the hearts of Chinese fans were raised, because Ma Junqiang had already fallen down to pounce on the ball at this time, and it was very wise for the striker to choose the hanging door at this time. At the critical moment, "Ma Dashuai" stretched out his arm high, and held the ball firmly, and the ball changed its original falling trajectory and fell from the crossbar to the top of the net.

"Ma Junqiang saved Messi's shot, this goal can basically be regarded as a must-score, but Ma Junqiang's highlight play frustrated Argentina's hope of overtaking the score!" He Wei said loudly.

Xu Yang also said: "It is estimated that Messi broke many Chinese fans just now." ”

Ye Xiaotong patted his heart in the audience and said, "This really scares me to death." Don't play with these heartbeats, if it goes on like this, I can't stand it!"

Wang Shihan also said: "As long as the Chinese team can survive this wave of Argentina's offensive, it will be able to play later!"

Argentina will be prepared to take a corner. Don't look at Ma Junqiang's beautiful pounce just now, in fact, he was a little surprised in his heart, facing Messi's shot, no matter which goalkeeper it is, it is impossible to be calm. Yan Tao stepped forward and high-fived Ma Junqiang, and then the two of them took up their respective duties.

Di Maria's corner kick was punished into the penalty area, passed a little closer to the goal, Ma Junqiang attacked to pick up the ball, Icardi, Yan Tao, Tang Ling three people competed, and finally Ma Junqiang slightly over, the first to get the ball, but at the same time as he held the ball, the top Icardi knocked Ma Junqiang to the ground in the air, so that Ma Junqiang failed to grasp the ball. Immediately, a Chinese player raised his hand to signal that Icardi had fouled, but Huang Yu didn't have time to care whether Icardi had committed a foul or not, and directly kicked the ball far out of the sideline.

And the referee's whistle sounded at this time.
