"Finally, this final that Chinese fans have been waiting for has officially begun, and whether it wins or loses, this National Olympic team will be remembered by Chinese fans."
In CCTV's live broadcast room, Liu Jianhong's commentary is still sensational.
Cameroon lined up with 442 today, with Mboma and Samuel Eto'o up front, both playing for European teams, with Mboma playing for Parma, who has just moved from Real Madrid to Mallorca. The core of Cameroon's midfield is Olembe, who currently plays for Nantes in Ligue 1, and he has been trained in the Nantes academy and is one of the core midfielders of the current Nantes team. ”
Without the rhythm of Lao Han, Huang Jianxiang's commentary has also stabilized a lot, and he has prepared a lot for this game.
The Cameroon team launched a fierce attack on the Chinese team from the beginning of the game, and their players were excellent in physical fitness, and the skills at their feet were quite good compared to the Chinese team, which caused a lot of problems for the Chinese team's defense.
Horton's game is still a defensive tactic, although Liu Han's position did not retreat to the position of the back midfield, but Horton put Zheng Zhi and Li Gang in the double back, the purpose is to disrupt the Cameroon team's attack.
The Chinese team also put out a 442 lineup today, and the forward line is still the partner of Li Jinyu and Zhang Yuning. Liu Han is in the central midfield position, and in front of him is Zhao Junzhe, and the two wings Horton did not arrange people today, and they were bent on blocking the attack of the Cameroon team in the middle.
Eto'o is constantly cruising in front of the Chinese team, he doesn't know much about the Chinese team, and the only one he knows is probably Liu Han, but Eto'o now has only one goal in mind, and that is to win the Olympic championship.
Eto'o came to Spain from Africa in 1997 and joined the big club Real Madrid, Eto'o came to Real Madrid and was proud to be able to change his destiny and join such a big club, he loved his team deeply, but, unfortunately, he was not reused in Real Madrid, but was frequently loaned to other teams, and later returned to Real Madrid, but still did not have the trust of the coach, and only played once in half a season.
Eto'o was heartbroken by the experience, and when Eto'o left Madrid before the Olympics, he had only one thought on his mind, and that was to prove to the Madrid gang how good he really was, and that he would not give up any chance of glory.
The Cameroon team did not hesitate to launch an onslaught against the Chinese team from the beginning, and they had only one goal, which was to score as soon as possible and keep the Chinese team's defense passive.
I have to admit that the physical fitness of African players is really outstanding, maybe they are not excellent in pure strength, but they are much better than most players in the Chinese team in terms of explosiveness and flexibility, often Cameroon players just a change of direction to accelerate the Chinese team's defenders are very uncomfortable, but fortunately, the Chinese team completely gave up the confrontation on the side today, completely retracted the defense, and fought against the Cameroon team in a small area in front of the goal.
Eto'o retreated from the crowded Chinese penalty area, he found himself in the box and couldn't even get the ball, these cowardly Chinese will only defend, no, this is not defense, they plan to build a wall in the penalty area and completely seal the goal.
It's a feeling that makes Eto'o very uncomfortable, he doesn't like it, he likes the feeling of the wind blowing on him when he sprints, but now he can't rush at all.
The Cameroon team found that they had no way to deal with the turtle shell of the Chinese team, the Chinese players defended very well in the high-altitude ball, but it was difficult to pass in the middle penetration, and the tall Chinese who wanted to shoot from a distance on the periphery did not give a chance, and for a while, there was a stalemate on the field.
Samuel Eto'o came out of the box and began to retreat to receive the ball, and Cameroon's well-balanced defence began to press, allowing the game to be played completely in the Chinese half.
Liu Han has been looking for opportunities to steal, he doesn't want to stick to it like this, he has to find a chance to fight back, blindly defending is too passive, but the Cameroon team's cooperation is quite skillful, and he has not found too good opportunities.
The game lasted for more than ten minutes, and the Chinese team was completely besieged.
"We see that the Cameroon team's defense is pressing, which is bad news and good news for the Chinese team, the opponent's defense is pressing, which means that they have begun to put more troops into the attack, and of course it also means that the Chinese team has the opportunity to counterattack."
After the success of the Chinese team's defensive counterattack tactics in the previous games, the host of CCTV no longer blindly emphasizes that the Chinese team must attack in the commentary.
In the sixteenth minute of the game, Liu Han finally found a counterattack opportunity, Eto'o retreated outside the penalty area to receive the ball and shoot directly from a distance, the ball was blocked by Fan Zhiyi with his body, and Zheng Zhi passed the ball to Liu Han immediately after getting the ball.
After Liu Han took the ball, he didn't look up to observe and made a long pass to the right, where Li Jinyu was plugged in at high speed.
Cameroon's left-back had just assisted the front, and their defense on the right was leaking, and Li Jinyu had a good chance.
However, it may be that he was too nervous, Li Jinyu made a small mistake when stopping the ball, he failed to park the ball well, and could only make a second adjustment, but at this time Cameroon's central defender Song had already defended in place.
In the face of Song's personal pressing, Li Jinyu looked much immature, and was cut off by Song directly in position, and the Chinese team's counterattack ended in vain.
Just when the Chinese team was still regretting that the counterattack could not be successful, the Cameroon team played a long pass directly to the left side of the field, and the left midfielder Geremi took the ball and advanced at high speed, distributing the ball to Eto'o before Zheng Zhi fell to the ground and tackled.
At this time, Liu Han had retreated to defend in place, Eto'o did not stick to the ball, and once again passed the ball horizontally to the feet of Olembe in the middle, and Olembe faced the incoming ball with his left foot and made a curling ball with his left foot, which went straight to the upper right corner of the Chinese team's goal.
Cheng Dong's reaction was very quick, he pounced on the upper right corner, but Olembe's kick was very tricky, grazing Cheng Dong's fingertips and flying over, just when everyone in the Chinese team had no time to regret, the goalpost rejected Olembe's goal, his shot hit the post and bounced back into the penalty area, and the Chinese team escaped.
However, at this time, the danger of the Chinese team has not gone away, Eto'o seized this opportunity with an extraordinary sense of goal, he did not pause after passing the ball, all the way into the Chinese team's penalty area, when the ball bounced back into the penalty area, Eto'o suddenly appeared in front of the ball, and the Chinese team's defense made a major mistake.
Samuel Eto'o didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground and slot it into the Chinese goal, and the cheetah often pounced on the throat of the prey when it fell to the ground, launching a lethal attack. (To be continued.) )
