Chapter 248: Pillars and Hope
At half past 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the first group stage of the "Top 10" of the 16th World Cup Asian Qualifiers kicked off with a whistle from South Korean referee Park Hae.
"Do the math, this is the sixth time that the Chinese team has hit the World Cup!" Wang Junsheng sat in the chairman's stand, next to him as a "special guest" Vice Chairman Xu, with a sigh on his face.
Although Vice Chairman Xu has not yet been reinstated, his contribution to Chinese football is obvious to all. To be invited to sit next to Yuan Weimin and others today, Vice Chairman Xu is fully qualified.
"Chu Liang is fine, right?" Compared with this "opening game", Vice Chairman Xu is more worried about Ou Chuliang's situation.
"Ladd said no problem." Wang Junsheng stopped and gave Vice Chairman Xu a reassuring pill, and then fed another one, "The eldest Qi also said that there was no problem." ”
"That's good." Vice Chairman Xu nodded.
The fact that Ou Chuliang did not participate in the British training camp could not be concealed at all, and many media and fans wrote letters to question the Football Association why they let Ou Chuliang leave before such an important game as the top ten.
What can I learn even if I go to Serie A for most of the month?
There was no run-in with the rest of the Chinese team, and the state did not have time to adjust after flying back to Dalian less than a week before the game. Coupled with such a young age, is it really good to start such an important game?
In the face of layers of questions from the media, the Football Association also couldn't stop talking.
In the end, Ladd and Qi Wusheng collectively stood up to pack tickets for Ou Chuliang, and the opposition of the fans gradually decreased. But even so, the fans are skeptical. If it weren't for Fu Bing who lost two goals in the second round of the China-South Korea confrontation, maybe he would have been sent to play in this top ten match.
On the field, the Iranian team members wore white sequoia pants, and the Chinese team specially arranged for the players to wear the third set of blue uniforms in order to take advantage of the "festivity" of the Asian Cup. Ou Chuliang wore Adi's specially customized purple robe, and stepped on a pair of fiery hot wheels, which looked very dazzling.
The white squad leader sat on Huang Wu's chair with a notebook on his lap, watching TV while scribbling on the computer with his slender index finger.
"Squad leader, aren't you competing? How do you play with the computer all the time? The glasses guy asked.
"Who's to say that if I don't watch the game, I'm not throwing throw-ins!"
In the screen, Sun Jihai threw the ball fiercely, and Gao Feng stuck the Iranian player with his body and chased the ball along the sideline.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the day squad leader swiped back and forth on the computer twice.
It wasn't until a "saved" dialog box popped up on the screen that the day shift leader nodded contentedly.
A few days ago, while browsing sports news on the Internet, an ad in the lower right corner of the web page attracted the day shift leader.
"Hit the top 10 and walk into Ou Chuliang!"
In just one sentence of advertising, the white squad leader clicked in without hesitation.
After coming to this website called "Jianghu", the white squad leader found that it was actually a website endorsed by Ou Chuliang and dominated by football. Here, the day squad leader not only made friends with fans and netizens from all over the country, but also joined the fan home offline.
"It's better to have your own website, it's all over my family."
The day squad leader saved the screenshot in the text live broadcast room, which was a save made by Ou Chuliang 1 minute ago.
My grandson Chen Tang paid out of his own pocket and used all the money he won from Malaysia to buy servers and rent venues, etc., and then found someone to transfer the live broadcast of CCTV 5 to two computers and record it in real time. In this way, you can take screenshots at the same time as the text broadcast, and you can also upload the video to the website after the game.
At this time, his roommates don't go to the game hall owner to watch the game, and they are all in the rental room of my grandson's group, blowing the air conditioner while being responsible for typing commentary.
1 minute ago, Ou Chuliang blocked Bagherry's long-range shot with a textbook fish leap save, and CCTV gave 3 replays in a row for such a standard save.
"Hmph, that's a world-class save! Less than 30 replays is not too much! The white squad leader muttered two sentences, and after saving the screenshot, he held up his cheeks and stared at the screen of Huang Wujia's big color TV.
On the screen, Gao Feng's side break was still cut off, and the Iranian team was making a powerful counterattack.
The break at the back sent most of the Chinese attacking players back like a tide, and as instructed by Ladd, these men forged the first line of defence near the center circle to prevent anyone from passing easily.
After playing for more than ten minutes, the Iranian team also figured out the tactics of the Chinese team's dense defense in the midfield.
So as soon as he brought the ball to the center circle, he immediately took a long pass.
The ball flew diagonally through the air and landed at the feet of Ali Daei on the right.
But at this moment, Zhang Jihua, who played as a right-back, slipped under his feet, and before Sun Jihai could return to the defense, he leaked Alidaiyi.
Such a mistake at home is really undeserved, and the growing cries of the fans remind the Chinese players on the field to keep shrinking the defense.
Sun Jihai accelerated desperately, and finally caught up with Ali Dayi three or four meters in front of the bottom line. At this time, the opponent had already parked the ball and seemed to be waiting for Sun Jihai's arrival.
The experienced Ali Daiyi naturally knew that if he accelerated a line at this time, he would definitely be truncated by Sun Jihai in front of the bottom line. So he took advantage of a change of pace, and when Son Jihai began to slow down and planned to have a 1v1 positional battle with him, Ali Dayi took the opportunity to suddenly accelerate again and take the ball towards the baseline again.
Caught off guard, Sun Jihai was also the same stumbling, and was wiped out by the suddenly accelerated Ali Dayi with the ball.
In an instant, Alidaii dribbled into the penalty area, pushed with his left foot in front of the baseline, and crossed in an inverted triangle.
"Alidai is over!" On the screen, Huang Jianxiang's anxious voice sounded.
Every time the young Huang Jianxiang hosts, he receives letters from some fans complaining, saying that he has abandoned the neutral position of the host; But more fans and friends called to praise Huang Jianxiang's commentary for his feelings, so that they were also infected by his passion when watching the game.
For a long time, CCTV has had a headache with this "problem employee". Therefore, in this game, Zhang Lu, an old commentator who is a little older and can stabilize his aura, is arranged as Huang Jianxiang's partner, and he will explain this Asian qualifier with him.
At this time, on the Golden State football field, Ali Daiyi's inverted triangle return pass had slipped in front of the feet of Sun Jihai and General Fan. Aziz, who was originally running in the middle, took advantage of General Fan's lack of check, and suddenly came to a snakeskin run, took the lead in receiving Alidaiyi's return pass in the corner of the small penalty area, and attacked the goal with his left foot at a small angle.
Mao Yijun fell to the ground and put a shovel, but he didn't have time to stop Aziz's shot.
At the last moment, Ou Chuliang, who was guarding the near post, fell to the ground in an instant and stretched out his right leg.
With a "bang", the ball that swept by at great speed hit the muscles below Ou Chuliang's thigh, and then popped off the back of his thigh. Ou Chuliang instantly turned around and grabbed the ball with his hand in front of the goal line.
Aziz, who rushed to the bottom line and stopped, covered his face with his hands when he saw this, and Ou Chuliang's goal-line reaction, he had already seen it in the Asian Cup.
"He's still so fast!" Aziz said helplessly.
Alidai was also near the baseline at this time, and as soon as he finished passing the ball, he stood on the baseline with his hands on his waist and watched his teammates attack the goal. At this time, seeing that the ball was confiscated by Ou Chuliang, he reluctantly patted Aziz on the shoulder, and said while running back: "Of course, he was only 19 last year and 20 this year." ”
When a player goes from 25 to 26 years old, you can say that his reflexes are already going downhill; But at the age of 19 and 20, no one would say that his reflexes would become sluggish.
At this time, Alidai and Aziz were both in their fighting years, but they met Ou Chuliang, whose physical strength was still on the rise, but his skills were close to the Great Perfection, and he had a feeling of "both Yu and Liang".
"yes, he's only 20 years old." Aziz sighed as well.
The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes. In terms of age, it is impossible for the two of them to wait until the day when Ou Chuliang is old.
But then the two of them turned their eyes to the backfield, where there was a cube-headed player with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Like Acchulian, who moved to Napoli, he has just signed with Bayern Munich, the southern king of the Bundesliga. Born in 77, he is the same age as Ou Chuliang, and he is only 20 years old this year.
And he also represents the hope of the Iranians.
"Hehe, this ball Ou Chuliang saved!" Zhang Lu's laughter sounded so harsh and so comfortable. This usual mantra-like "hehe" has a hint of irony at this time.
The leader of the TV station slapped his forehead, but he didn't expect that the old commentator of Zhang Lu's level was also affected by Huang Jianxiang.
The screen replayed Ou Chuliang's wonderful save just now, and he quickly fell to the ground after Aziz's shot from a meter in front of the goal. Judging from the slow-motion replay, if he had been half a second late, the ball would have rolled under his thigh and into the net.
But there are no ifs on the football field.
Ou Chuliang not only fell to the ground quickly, but the muscles below his thighs were also strong.
When Aziz's slash was not enough to squeeze through the upper and lower spaces, he honestly stopped behind Ou Chuliang and was fished back in his arms.
The ball looked thrilling, but in fact, Ou Chuliang took care of every detail. Whether it was stretching his leg to the ground in time or turning his hand back to fish, the action was extremely coherent, without the slightest drag. Even if the ball would eventually roll into the net due to inertia, Ou Chuliang, who reached out in time, stopped all this very well.
After winning the ball, Ou Chuliang stood up with the ball in his arms, and he looked for a passing point.
The formation of the three central defenders made it difficult for Ou Chuliang to find teammates who were pulling on the side for a while, and it was not until Wu Chengying hurriedly returned from the left side that Ou Chuliang threw the ball over with a big hand.
Wu Chengying did not quickly step forward after winning the ball, but walked the ball along the side, observing and bringing it forward.
"Ha, this picture is so cute!" The white squad leader held his face and said with satisfaction.
Chen Tang, who served as the editor, hurriedly took a screenshot of the save just now, and selected one to upload to the live broadcast room. As soon as the image was refreshed, thousands of comments immediately poured out below.
"Handsome! Xiao Ou's ball is beautiful! ”
"This is the country that can't be attacked! This goalline is a good reaction! ”
"The goalkeepers all over China have such a goal-line reaction to Ou Chuliang! It's not that there is no one to come, but it is certainly unprecedented! ”
"Hmph, what do you know upstairs? This has to be placed in ancient times, Ou Chuliang is the general who receives arrows with one hand! ”
“bbb!”
“bbb!”
“bbb!”
More netizens are sending out a string of thumbs-up icons, which are self-created expressions that other websites do not have, and are said to have been designed by Ou Chuliang himself. As soon as it was launched, it was deeply loved by fans. No matter what kind of emotions and expressions, you can find them in it.
After saving the picture, the white squad leader also found a smug expression in the expression bar and sent it out.
Looking up at the Chinese team still looking for an attack near the center circle, the white squad leader once again focused on the laptop screen in the photo of Ou Chuliang's save just now.
At the moment of the save, Ou Chuliang tightened his mouth, stood with sword eyebrows, and only had the black and white football in his eyes.
The arm in front of the ball is like holding a lover in his arms.
At that moment, the white squad leader suddenly thought about how good it would be if he was that football.
