Chapter 124: Two Penalties

Zhang Jingtian said it is mysterious, but in fact, Hungarian football has declined, and it is not even as good as some third-rate small European countries. Not to mention the magical team led by Puskas back then, now it is not even as good as their "apprentice" Chinese team, even the Chinese team is not like a few decades ago, beating invincible opponents all over Asia.

The decline of football in Hungary has a lot to do with politics.

Historically, Hungary has often challenged Romania, which is three times their size.

Trade wars, political wars, defamation by public opinion, and even fierce border clashes have not resolved the feud between Hungary and Romania for decades.

Therefore, the development of Hungarian football to this day has survived little by little in the shelling and oppression, and it is normal for it to decline.

But why Chinese football has fallen to this day, no one can explain it clearly from one aspect. At the very least, it is not caused by the division of the country.

After two consecutive hard battles, the National Olympic Games lost their troops. Hungary, however, were no better, flying the "Fight for Honour" banner before the game, but they missed the mark when they arrived.

In the 3rd minute, Xie Hui took advantage of a front-court throw-in and got sideways away from the opponent's close defense. Stretch out your feet and stride into the opponent's penalty area alone.

While the opponent's defender was still close to the front, Xie Hui nudged with his right foot again and rushed to the bottom line with the ball.

Xie Hui's two consecutive changes of direction caught the Hungarian defenders off guard, and the two defenders stuck to it in one go.

Just when others thought Xie Hui was going to make a cross, the young player from Shanghai even wanted to continue to carry the ball forward.

Bang!

Smack!

A black-and-white soccer ball rolled between the legs of two Hungarian defenders, but Xie Hui stayed on the instep of their feet.

"Beep !!"

"Penalty, it's a penalty!" Huang Jianxiang looked excited.

"Soon after the game started, the Chinese team made a penalty by Xie Hui!"

The Hungarian players were all around the referee to denounce and defend themselves, but Xie Hui stood up with the help of his teammates.

"Well, not bad! Is there any meaning of Qu Fat? Xie Hui said with a smile.

"Alright, you don't have to sell cheaply!" Tan Ende was also happy.

Xie Hui, who fell to the ground, was not injured, and even deliberately tripped on the opponent's outstretched foot in order to create a penalty.

Now, he's got his wish.

If this goal is scored, the national Olympic Games will not only get off to a good start, but also control the rhythm of the whole game, and even the fate of qualifying will be in their own hands. This seems to be the first game that can be relieved since the National Olympic Games entered the Olympic Games.

"Who's going to kick it?"

"Lao Xie, come on! The points you make, you will naturally kick them! ”

Xie Hui did not shirk, and walked directly to the penalty spot with the ball.

"Now we can see that Xie Hui personally walked to the penalty spot, and it seems that he will take the penalty."

"Run..."

"Shoot..."

"Hit the pillar?!"

"Oops, that's a shame!"

At this moment, not only Huang Jianxiang, but even Liu Jianhong was regretful.

obviously deceived the opponent's goalkeeper, but Xie Hui pushed the ball in the lower left corner just hit the post and bounced back into the field. Tan Ende, Yang Chen and others failed to make up for the shot, and the ball was cleared by the opposing defender first.

"It's a shame that Xie Hui's penalty didn't go in."

"If this goal is scored, Xie Hui will become the second athlete in the history of the Chinese team to score a goal in the history of the Olympic Games, and the first athlete to score a penalty."

"Maybe it's just the game, the players are still a little excited, some are out of shape."

"I hope the national Olympic team will not make similar mistakes again in the next games..."

Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong, you look at me and say a word, although they helped Xie Hui exonerate on the surface, but in the hearts of many fans, they still gave Xie Hui a bad review!

"What the hell is this? Can't get a penalty? If I could, I could have scored! ”

"yes, such a good lead opportunity was missed, it's a waste!"

"Even if you created the penalty yourself, you can't be so casual, right? The penalty is yours, but the goal is everyone's! ”

The friends sighed for a while, and even the white squad leader sitting on the stool was annoyed.

Before the game, Huang Jianxiang helped the fans analyze the current situation of the National Olympic Games.

The last two games of Group D were played at the same time, although there is a theoretical possibility of qualifying for the National Olympic Games even if they lose, Huang Jianxiang still introduced in an easy-to-understand way under what circumstances the National Olympic Games are likely to qualify.

"As long as the result is better than Brazil's last game, the national Olympic team can qualify!"

This is a sentence that Huang Jianxiang conveyed to fans across the country, that is, if Brazil loses, the National Olympic Games will be able to qualify; If Brazil draws, the National Olympics will also qualify if they win.

So just now, Xie Hui kicked the ball that helped the National Olympic Games take the lead, and the whole country sighed.

"Brother Wu, if only Nigeria won!" The man with glasses stroked his glasses and said.

"The beauty of thought!" Huang Wu pursed his lips.

"What do you think of beauty?" The man with glasses asked curiously, "Isn't Nigeria also likely to be eliminated?" In addition, the strength of their players is not bad. If we can beat Brazil, they can win too! ”

"You're taking it for granted!" Huang Wu explained, "Although Nigeria has a theoretical possibility of elimination, they are very strong, so this last game must be a draw." The situation for Brazil is much more complicated, for them there are many situations of qualification and elimination, but only with victory in their hands will the possibility of qualifying be the greatest. Therefore, they will definitely attack desperately in this game, and even win by a big score in qualifying! ”

"I see." The man with glasses nodded.

"Coach Liu, now you can guess the final score of another game." Seeing that the two sides were playing a little flat, Huang Jianxiang asked on the screen.

Liu Jianhong lifted his glasses, hesitated for a while and said, "I guess the final difference between the two teams will not exceed one goal, 1-0 and 0-0 are both possible." ”

"In other words, no matter who wins, it won't be more than one ball?" Huang Jianxiang held it.

"That's right, because Brazil are looking for a win, and Nigeria don't have a strong desire to win, but they won't let Brazil win. Because if Brazil really scored a lot of goals, then they were in danger of being eliminated. ”

Just as fans across the country listened attentively to the two football commentators analysing the situation in Group D, there was another change on the pitch.

In the 27th minute, Hungary sent a long pass from the midfield and accurately found Miklos, who was cutting forward.

The white-skinned, bald striker received the ball and sped off the ball, moving from the right to the middle.

Although Zhang Jihua, who is closest to him, is one position behind his opponent, he still has a chance to catch up with his opponent because the opponent is running diagonally.

Seeing that the two were getting closer and closer, just as Zhang Jihua stretched out his hand to grab the opponent's jersey, Miklos kicked the ball away at his feet, and his waist was up, and he accelerated again, as if he wanted to use his speed to pin Zhang Jihua.

But at this time, Zhang Jihua was almost attached to the other party, and Miklos suddenly accelerated, and he forced Zhang Jihua to surpass Zhang Jihua by half a position again. It was at a distance of less than ten centimeters that Zhang Jihua accidentally tripped on the opponent's back heel with one of his front feet. The center of gravity of the two was unstable, and they both fell to the ground.

"Beep!"

The Canadian referee's whistle blew again, but this time, he pointed to the penalty spot for the National Olympic Games.

Penalty kick!
