Chapter Twenty-Five: I Can Do It

"How can this be? Zheng Zhi left the field with a serious injury, what should the Chinese team do?"

"Without Zheng Zhi, will the Chinese team be able to survive the last 20 minutes?"

"Isn't it beautiful. The hardest working person ends up with the most bitter tears. ”

The fans in the stands watched Zheng Zhi leave, and they also watched the replay on the sideline screen. The worried fans, in addition to worrying about Zheng Zhi's injury at the moment, also lost the last bit of hope for the Chinese team.

Zheng Zhi's brilliant performance at the beginning of the second half was definitely the best performance of the Chinese team in this game. The old and strong Zheng Zhi is actually the strongest spiritual pillar of the Chinese team. Now that he has fallen, fans do not think that Wu Xi, who replaced him, can replace him.

Originally, there was another pillar in the Chinese team, which was considered by fans to be a pillar that could be trusted-Yan Feng. It's a pity that Yan Feng began to sink since the Chinese team fell behind by two goals. This made the fans completely lose confidence in the game. I just hope that the Chinese team will not collapse and turn into a massacre.

All the players on the field returned to their respective positions, and after Yan Feng regained his position, he had a look on his face that was far more determined than before. Responsibility makes a man more determined and tenacious.

It's good to be mentally back, but it doesn't directly change the dynamics of the game. If you want to change the bad situation, you need something else. For example

"What the hell do I have to do to help the team?"

"What the hell can I do to limit the other person's core?"

"What the hell should I do to find the weaknesses of the opponent's defensive system?" Yan Feng began to constantly think about the direction of breaking the game in his heart.

If you want to break the game, whether it is defending or attacking, you need to have a better way.

After the ball came out of the sideline, it was kicked back to the Croatian backfield by Jiang Zhipeng. When Zheng Zhi was seriously injured, the ball was won by the Croatian team, who played it out of the field in a friendly manner.

"Attack!" Modric, with a wave of his hand, motioned for his teammates to attack. Zheng Zhi left the field with a serious injury for the game, which he admired, but he would not let his opponent go because of this. 2 goals in hand is not safe, and another goal is the real killing of the game.

Croatia started to attack, especially the forward players looked positive. In a World Cup like this, everyone wants to score goals and score more goals.

"How are we going to withstand this wave this time?" Yan Feng thought to himself. He was knocked out by Modric before, and now he needs to do better. While limiting this opponent, you also need to be able to support your teammates.

Yan Feng also knows the advantages and disadvantages of himself and Modric. He has more physical strength, speed, stamina and defensive ability. Modric has better technique, knowledge and awareness.

It is not difficult to limit Modric's physical condition with Yan Feng. But it is Modric's ability to command without the ball that is the most difficult. Therefore, what Yan Feng has to do is to make the opponent have no time to take care of other things, even if he is without the ball.

In order to achieve this goal, Yan Feng thought that the easiest way was to let Modric go. With Yan Feng's violent ability, it couldn't be simpler to let the opponent go down with a serious injury. But his work ethic prevented him from doing so.

Such a heinous act cannot be committed. What can be done, Yan Feng thought of a way, that is, consume. Anyway, his physical fitness is good enough to withstand the exertion. And Modric can't afford it.

"Pestering him, even when he's off the ball. Even if it's running, it's going to be physically explicit. It's 70 minutes now, and he's not going to last 10 minutes. Come on, Yan Feng, you can. Yan Feng thought of this and encouraged himself.

At this time, the Croatian team also began to cross the midline and began to touch the Chinese team's defense. Seeing that Modric crossed the middle line, Yan Feng immediately stepped forward quickly, and then leaned against the former.

"Huh?" Modric was supposed to be running and observing his teammates. Yan Feng's close contact hindered his movements. He glanced at Yan Feng in some surprise, and after frowning slightly, he began to change direction and move.

But soon, he found that Yan Feng still followed him. And in the process of moving, the wall-like body is still exerting force on him. He had to move and exert force to resist the pressure. This made it difficult for him to move and feel uncomfortable.

Although he found that Yan Feng was going to completely restrict him and make him very uncomfortable, he was still optimistic in his heart. Duzi was originally what he wanted to see. If you want to restrain me, then consume all of yours. The Croatian team can do without me, but the Chinese team can't do without you at all!

The Croatian team saw that Modric was followed by Yan Feng, but it was not affected much. Many people, on the contrary, feel very happy. Because their opportunity came.

Croatia began to attack the Chinese team's wings, and Modric could not comfortably hold the ball, but the others were equally confident that they could break down the Chinese team's defence. After all, that's what they did before.

After Rakitic and Perisic exchanged passes, they were ready to directly attack Jiang Zhipeng's defense. Jiang Zhipeng cautiously retreated slowly, trying not to give the other party a chance.

Seeing that Rakitic has the meaning of single-handing Jiang Zhipeng. Yan Feng suddenly squeezed to his side, leaning back, and rushed towards Rakitic with all his might.

Modric was stumbled by Yan Feng's sudden force and almost fell. Although he was already fighting hard against Yan Feng's collision, Yan Feng's strength was too much more than him. In fact, this is still Yan Feng's strength, otherwise, it is possible to fly out.

Modric finally regained his balance, but saw Yan Feng quickly approaching Rakitic's back. "Rakitic, watch out behind you. ”

In the face of Jiang Zhipeng, who was constantly retreating, Rakitic was preparing for an acceleration for a strong charge, and when he heard the reminder of his teammates, he subconsciously turned his head to look. Seeing that Yan Feng was rushing towards him fiercely, and the distance was already very close. My heart was torn upside down.

Yan Feng is the most impressive person in the Chinese team, and this is the only two Chinese he has ever played against. And Yan Feng's performance in La Liga still left a deep impression on him. He subconsciously made a ball protection move.

Yan Feng quickly reined in his steps and put pressure on Rakitic. Rakitic followed and found himself surrounded. Jiang Zhipeng had already stopped retreating, and instead stepped forward, forming a flanking encirclement with Yan Feng.

"Quick, pass me the ball. "Modric came over to pick it up.

I want to pass the ball out there, too. Rakitic lamented when he heard this. Yan Feng and Jiang Zhipeng were not one straight and one behind, but half-surrounded diagonally and forced him to the side. Rakitic was soon surrounded on the flanks and had nowhere to get the ball out but outside the bounds.

Yan Feng's chest pressed against Rakitic's side back and kept pushing forward, but Jiang Zhipeng tacitly looked for an opportunity in front of him to prepare to grab the ball.

Yan Feng's powerful strength made Rakitic suffer. Seeing that he was likely to be pushed out of bounds by Yan Feng, Rakitic had no choice but to kick the ball to Jiang Zhipeng's foot and let the ball touch the bounds.

But Jiang Zhipeng seemed to have been prepared for this, and suddenly jumped, and the ball leaked from underneath. followed Jiang Zhipeng and stopped in front of Rakitic.

Yan Feng let go of Rakitic and took the first step, and the two people in front of him controlled the ball at their feet.

"Good, nice defense. ”

"Great, this time I actually took it down. The Chinese fans in the stands cheered. After Zheng Zhi got off the field, they thought that the Chinese team was collapsing, but they didn't expect such a scene to appear in front of them.

"Whew~" Yan Feng exhaled, a relieved smile on his face. "Brother Zhi, I did it. ”

Now it's our turn. "For the first time, if the defense was successful, Yan Feng's confidence soared.

"Attack!" can do such a successful defense after the old captain is injured, which also gives the other national football players a lot of confidence.

"How can I do a good job of this attack?" Although he shouted to attack heroically, Yan Feng knew very well in his heart that it would not be easy to make the attack effective. The first 70 minutes of the game showed that.

Croatia defensively is a team that is efficient and consistent. The Croatian team's defensive players have the excellent physical fitness of the former Yugoslav players, and most of the Chinese team will fall behind against them. Yan Feng is one of the few people in the Chinese team who does not fall behind, and there are some excesses. This is a special case.

Croatia's defenders are tall and strong, and they are not slow. But they are the weakest in terms of physical fitness in the midfield position. Luka Modric is clearly a man of average physical strength, relying on ball intelligence and awareness to defend. And Rakitic is also not known for his physicality. Facing these two people, Yan Feng was confident that his body had a stronger advantage.

The biggest problem of the Chinese team is that after Zheng Zhi left the game, the organizational ability of the entire team decreased significantly. Although Lin Fan's organizational skills are not bad, compared with the old and spicy Zheng Zhi, he still lacks some heat.

As for Yan Feng, the outside world's evaluation of him is that he doesn't have much organizational ability. Just a fierce player with a strong defense and impact.

"No! I can too. Yan Feng didn't think so. He does have a stronger physical advantage than others. But now he feels he has other advantages.

His stunt is not used to pass people. Uncle Ai Zhong, the researcher of this technology, is most admired for passing, not passing.

Reverse push pass. This is his last hole card. In the past, he didn't use it much in competitions. Now that he has taken over the responsibility from Zheng Zhi, he is determined to use his passing to help the Chinese team.

The Chinese team began to attack and patiently pushed the ball across the halfway line. But after touching the Croatian team's defensive third zone, the Chinese team was hindered again.

The ball came to Lin Fan's feet. After Zheng Zhi came off the field, he also realized that he needed to take on the responsibility of the offensive organization of the Chinese team. He was the best playmaker among the Chinese players on the field. But he also couldn't find any chances in the face of Croatia's systematic defence.

Lin Fan searched hard, but the opportunity was fleeting, and the Croatian team's ability to make up for loopholes was too strong.

"Hey! Croatia's defense is just too strong. It's on par with Italy. Seeing this, many Chinese fans felt helpless.

And some people are starting to feel it. "How could such a strong Croatian team lose and draw one in the first two games?

"It can only be said that the fate of the Chinese team is not good. In the final round, I met the Croatian team that adjusted the ups and downs to the best!"

Lin Fan couldn't find a chance to send bullets to his teammates in front of him. The opponent is severing his connection with his forward teammates. Unless he can get the ball behind the defender from the front. But this kind of thing can be worn, just think about it, to do it, you may not be able to do it once out of ten times.

"Lin Fan, give it to me. Seeing that Lin Fan was in danger of being encircled while wandering, Yan Feng stepped forward to respond.

Lin Fan also saw this, and was very unwilling to pass the ball back to Yan Feng.

After Yan Feng stopped the ball, he observed it for a while. In his heart, he said firmly, "Now let me come." If there is no chance, then create it. ”

Yan Feng resolutely glanced at Modric, who came over and stopped in front of him. Then, start moving forward.

Luka Modric has a lot of brains and a very good sense of defence. He knew that he had no physical advantage, and he was always at a distance from his teammates who could receive support at any time outside of his stuck position.

Forcing Modric may succeed. But it will not create an opportunity to disrupt the Croatian defence. No matter how the rest of the Chinese run and contain, under the perfect system of the Croatian team, they will also not have a chance.

Yan Feng understood this. And he chose to force Modric in front of him. He knew he could use his physical advantage to achieve that against Modric. Although even past Modric, there is a stronger Croatian defense behind them. But what Yan Feng wants is the opportunity to face the guard line directly.

Yan Feng began to approach Modric in small steps. The latter had already studied Yan Feng and knew that Yan Feng had the advantage of rushing over him. Modric struggled to maintain his defensive position and was determined not to be affected by Yan Feng's not-so-so-good feints.

Yan Feng's feints, in the eyes of many dribbling masters, are simply out of the flow. But what Yan Feng wants is not for the other party to be shaken, but to maintain a defensive posture. Then he will pass from the opponent's weaker side.

Reverse and push it out!

"Here we are! You can't fool me. This is it!" Modric shouted angrily in his heart, sticking out his interception foot in the direction he had judged.

Modric was right. But it didn't work. The reverse push pushes the ball in the opposite direction first so that the defender who always moves backward cannot reach the ball.

"Wow! Yan Feng passed the magic flute. Yan Feng's stunt!" The Chinese fans shouted excitedly after Yan Feng passed Modric. For Chinese fans who are two goals behind, it is already worth being happy to be able to see the shining points of the field.

Yan Feng, who successfully passed Modric, was still calm in his heart. Past Modric, he is at least half as sure. And then, the straight back line is the most important.

The stronger force and faster speed made it difficult for Modric to entangle himself after being rushed by Yan Feng. Modric had to chase down with all his might behind to keep the pressure on. Of course, Modric didn't have much chagrin in his heart. They are a team and he has confidence in his team-mates at the back.

"Wu Lei, behind the defender. After Yan Feng rushed over, he pointed forward and shouted loudly. Although in front of him was Gao Lin, who was carrying a defender on his back.

Yan Feng soon encountered defender Yedwai (from Bayer Leverkusen) who was blocking his way.

"That's it, Chinese. Yedwai stared at Yan Feng in a stern manner. Other defenders are also shrinking their space.

Yan Feng is in front of Yedwai, and then there is a guard who is defending Gao Lin. In the other direction, Rakitic was also close, as was Luka Modric behind him.

There is an interception in front, and there are pursuers in the rear. The rest of his teammates didn't get a chance. It seemed that Yan Feng would soon fall into the same desperate situation as Lin Fan before.

"Well, again. The Croatian team still doesn't let people live?" Chinese fans lamented when they saw this. In their opinion, Yan Feng was about to fall into a siege, and at the same time, there was nothing to do.

Even if Yan Feng can break through one more person, he is not Maradona, and he can't connect several people by himself and finally break through the goal.

The situation looks unfavorable. Yan Feng also looked like he had no choice, so he could only dribble a few steps sideways.

But Yan Feng didn't think so. Although he looks like he is in trouble, he is actually waiting for a man to move. Soon, what he was waiting for appeared.

"This is the time!" Yan Feng's eyes lit up. In his line of sight, Yedwai coincided with Gao Lin and another defender behind him.

Yan Feng immediately started to act. Reverse push and push!

It's this trick again. I'm not Modric, you won't succeed. Yedwai roared inwardly. With Modric's lessons learned, Yedwai was smart not to make a move, but opted for a sideways step. In this way, although he can't break the ball at the first time, he can get a one-half chance to turn around and chase the ball.

And Yedwai miscalculated this time. Yan Feng didn't intend to break through, he used a reversal to push the pass.

With the attacker's opportunity to take a half-beat, Yan Feng could push the ball out first. And, not overpowering, he can use more force, the ball passes faster.

When Jedwai realised that only the ball had passed through his body, he couldn't do it again.

The ball went straight past Jedwai at a fast pace, and then through Gao Lin and the defenders who defended him. The ball went straight through the entire Croatian defence and rolled into the box.

"Next, it's up to you for the final blow. "Yan Feng has already done what he can do, and the rest depends on Wu Lei, the number one striker in China.

Wu Lei did not disappoint Yan Feng. He was just in time to show up where he should have been. Then Wu Lei didn't stop the ball and didn't take the ball, and directly hit the goal.

"Bang!" Wu Lei's body fell uncontrollably, but the ball had already flown out.

β€œGOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

"Wow!!" "Yay!!"

"Wow Wow Wow Wow !!!" belongs to the stands where Chinese fans are, and for the first time since this game, it is boiling.

"Scored, scored! we scored!"

"Wow!! we've finally scored!!"

This time, the king of martial arts did not disappoint everyone.
