An Rong was about to change again, and this time he replaced Yan Tao and replaced Li Yongxuan. Yan Tao has a yellow card on his body, and An Rong does not need to continue to let Yan Tao take risks in a good situation of 3:0, so that Yan Tao will be able to wash off this yellow card in the next round.

Yan Tao also received applause from the fans when he left the game, he walked to the bench and sat in the vacant seat next to Zhang Shujie.

It was Li Yongxuan's first appearance in the World Cup, and he was very excited and a little nervous, but he comforted himself that the team was already three goals ahead, so take it easy, we can win.

So far, An Rong has used up all three substitutions, and Costa Rica has one more place in his hands that is useless. An Rong doesn't care whether Pinto still needs this place, and even if he does, he doesn't want to know who he will replace, because none of this matters anymore.

Ruiz took this free kick, he chose to pass the ball in this passable and shootable position, and passed to the penalty area, Campbell topped the first point, under the interference of Yan Tao, he failed to form an attack, just rubbed the ball to the back point, Li Yongxuan, who had just come out, pushed the ball towards the outside of the penalty area, and pushed it far away, at least 20 meters away.

Wu Xiao received the ball and passed it to Zhao Wenkang, Zhao Wenkang then to Tang Ling, Tang Ling passed to Wu Xiao, and Wu Xiao passed to Li Mu. The ball was passed at the feet of several Chinese players in succession, disrupting Costa Rica's defense. Because Wu Xiao and Li Mu both withdrew relatively deeply, there was no one in the frontcourt, and the Chinese team did not hit the ball, so they could only pass near the midfield, but it was no big deal if they didn't attack at this time, and dragging out the time was the most important thing.

In the eighty-fifth minute, Costa Rica didn't have much heart to attack, the Chinese team controlled the ball, Yan Tao and Liang Xiran passed to each other three times before passing to the front, Yan Tao looked directly for Li Mu, Li Mu didn't grab the ball, Borges who returned to the defense put the ball far away, Xu Ziyi took it and passed it to Xu Zhixin on the side.

Xu Zhixin used his speed to force Gamboa, Gamboa couldn't catch up, but Xu Zhixin went too big, and only passed the ball out near the bottom line, passed to the penalty area, Li Mu grabbed the front point, he leaned on Umana, shot at the near corner with his left foot, and was blocked by Navas, who reacted quickly, with his toes to block the ball out of the bottom line.

The Chinese team gets a corner.

At this time, the camera showed the bench of the Chinese team, Zhang Shujie and Yan Tao sat together in their coats and chatted, and the two showed some smiles from time to time, which also shows how relaxed the two are now.

Zhang Shujie and Yan Tao were chatting happily, and this time and score also gave them the capital to be happy. All they have to do now is wait quietly for the game to end. ”

The camera returned to the field, Zhao Wenkang took a corner kick, he did not pass to the penalty area, but to Huang Yu who was standing not far away, Huang Yu knocked on Xu Zhixin outside the penalty area, Xu Zhixin took a look at the goal after catching the ball, made a lateral kick, and then picked up his right leg to shoot long, Navas flew and pounced, did not save the ball, but the ball did not go in, and flew out of bounds from above the crossbar.

Liu Jianhong said with a smile: "Xu Zhixin also completed a shot, which is still quite far away, estimated to be twenty-seven or eight meters, which is also bold enough." ”

"Hehe, there won't be much time, and with three balls in hand, everyone is more relaxed, and Xu Zhixin also tried to shoot at goal. If the two teams are still in a stalemate stage, then Xu Zhixin should not dare to do this. ”

Ninety minutes of regular time had arrived, with the fourth official holding up the sign for three minutes of stoppage time, Costa Rica also using the last substitution, Roy Miller replacing Umana, and Pinto replacing defenders for defenders, so that two of Costa Rica's three substitutions were opposites. However, An Rong is more ruthless than him, and the three substitutions are all in the opposite position.

In the stands, many Costa Rican fans have left the stadium in advance, and the fans of the Chinese team began to celebrate the victory in advance.

Three minutes of stoppage time did not change the situation on the pitch, and both teams had already given up on attack, only to pour their feet on the pitch and drag the clock out. Liu Jianhong said: "The three minutes of stoppage time are completely garbage time. ”

Shen Hao simply played with his mobile phone in the press gallery and flirted with his wife in China through messages, while Chen Hui was still watching the game, but he was no longer as engaged as before. He yawned and said, "Let's end the game early." ”

Campbell's boundless long-range shot flew off the line, the ball boy threw the ball into the field, Ma Junqiang set the ball and prepared to kick off the goal, and the game was already two minutes and fifty seconds of injury time.

"Toot, beet, ——"

Before Ma Junqiang's ball was released, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and when his whistle ended, there were still four seconds of injury time.

Seeing this, Liu Jianhong couldn't help laughing: "Haha, the referee saw that both sides didn't want to attack anymore, so he simply didn't give it in the last ten seconds, and directly blew the game to the end." Presumably, Pinto wouldn't mind this problem, after all, the Costa Rican players couldn't do anything in the past ten seconds. ”

Zhang Ludao: "Actually, even if he doesn't blow this whistle, after Ma Junqiang drives the ball out, the game will almost be over." The referee is equivalent to not giving the Chinese team this meaningless goal kick. ”

"That's right. In this one-eighth match, China's Zhang Shujie scored twice and Chen Zihua's long-range shot defeated Costa Rica 3-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals! And the quarterfinals are also the second best result in the history of Asian teams, and the South Korean team in the 2002 World Cup was the semi-finals, which is also a record for Asian teams!

Zhang Lu suddenly laughed when he heard it, and laughed a little strangely: "That World Cup, hehe!"

Obviously, Zhang Lu didn't finish his words, and there are some things that everyone just knows.

The Chinese players and fans celebrated the team's reach to the quarter-finals, and in the post-match interview area, Zhang Shujie was interviewed, he said: "How can I say it, I'm very happy, really, it's hard for me to express how I feel right now, I thank my teammates because they played really well, without them I wouldn't have been able to score these two goals." ”

A reporter asked him: "I have entered the quarterfinals, do you have the confidence to enter the semifinals?"

"I can't answer this kind of question casually, the team that can reach the quarterfinals is not bad, everyone wants to go to the semi-finals, my teammates and I will definitely give our all in every game and work hard until the last second!"
