The problems with the game itself, coupled with Sun Wei's bombardment at the post-match press conference, made the match immediately the hot spot of the day's Olympics.

"Cheng Hai scored twice to lead the Chinese Olympic team to defeat Senegal 3-1 to advance to the semifinals, and the referee's law enforcement scale caused controversy! 》

"The Chinese Olympic team defeated Senegal 3-1 to advance to the semifinals, and the referee Clattenburg was bombarded by the head coach of the Chinese team after the game! 》

"Referee Clattenburg became Senegal's 12th man on the field, but he couldn't prevent Cheng Hai from leading the Chinese Olympic team to defeat Senegal 3-1 to advance to the semifinals! 》

Some media outlets are quite descriptive about the facts, and some media outlets just point out that Clattenburg's decision is flawed.

In particular, that penalty directly led to Senegal's goal, and the misjudgment was the worst.

Huaguo head coach Sun Wei was banned by the London Organising Committee for two games for his inappropriate remarks in the post-match press conference.

In other words, even if the Huaguo team reaches the final, Sun Wei will not be able to sit on the sidelines and direct the game, and the Huaguo Olympic team will continue to move forward in the absence of the head coach.

Of course, this is not a big deal. Everyone knows that the real core of the Huaguo team is Cheng Hai, not the head coach.

As long as Cheng Hai is not banned, the Huaguo team is still the favorite to win the championship.

However, this ban still caused protests from the Chinese media and fans, but it could not change the decision of the organizing committee.

Fortunately, Clattenburg did not please either, and was severely banned by FIFA for half a year, and could not enforce any football matches for half a year.

This was a warning to the referees for the next two games.

For FIFA, the emergence of Cheng Hai is a good opportunity to actively promote football and expand its influence in Asia, so they are on Cheng Hai's side.

Last year's Ballon d'Or accident was actually just the bias of some of the judges, and it had little to do with the organizers of FIFA itself, and they did not vote for them, they were only responsible for distributing votes, collecting votes, and counting them.

This strong support for Cheng Hai and the severe punishment of Clattenberg can also be regarded as a goodwill signal to Cheng Hai.

Another piece of even worse news for Clattenburg was that he did everything he could to make things difficult for the Chinese team, but he didn't expect the British Olympic team to lose to Mexico in the quarter-finals.

In the final quarter-finals, the hosts of the British Olympic team were held to a 1-1 draw by the Mexican Olympic team, and the two sides played until the penalty shootout, and finally England was eliminated by Mexico in the penalty shootout, stopping in the quarterfinals.

This may have been something that Clattenberg had not thought of even when he was killed.

As the world champion and host, the British Olympic team lost to Mexico, which was only second in the group stage, and stopped in the quarterfinals in the cheers of the hometown fans.

So far, the quarterfinals are all over, and the teams that have entered the finals are Japan, China, Brazil, and Mexico.

Two Asian teams, two American teams, European and African teams were all wiped out.

The next semi-finals are China vs. Japan and Brazil vs. Mexico, which are known as the Asian Derby and the American Derby respectively.

As for playing Japan, the Chinese team is not afraid at all.

As long as Cheng Hai is here, it is impossible for the Japanese team, which is also an Asian team, to pose a threat to the Chinese national team.

As long as the Chinese team defeats Japan, they can reach the final and compete for the Olympic gold medal.

This made the whole country boiling, and countless fans temporarily bought tickets to fly to England, wanting to witness the Chinese Olympic team's victory over Japan to advance to the final.

Even in the country, there are countless people waiting to watch the live broadcast of the game.

An Olympic semi-final, which is not very important in the eyes of European and American countries, has already aroused the pursuit of fans across China, and even countless spectators who were not fans have also been attracted to fans and have abnormal expectations for this game.

And the referee of this game is no longer England, but the Italian Golden Whistle Rocchi, which is a signature golden whistle launched by the Italian Referee League, which naturally will not smash its own signboard, and Italy is also a European country with a better relationship with China.

The matches between Huaguo and Japan, two Asian countries, also have nothing to do with Rochi, he only needs to complete his law enforcement tasks.

Therefore, it is almost certain that in this game, in terms of law enforcement environment, the Chinese Olympic team will not suffer any unfair punishment.

After not worrying about the referee, the Huaguo team is full of confidence in the semi-finals.

Cheng Hai said in an interview with reporters on the first day before the game: "Since we have reached the semi-finals, our goal must be the championship!" As for Japan? I'm 100 per cent confident that my teammates will beat them. ”

A reporter asked about the head coach being banned for two games, Cheng Haidao: "We have an excellent team of assistant coaches, and whether it is training or games, the head coach has arrangements, and we will not lose to Japan because of this." ”

On the other hand, the Japanese team is relatively low-key, because they know that it will be difficult for them to defeat the Huaguo team with Cheng Hai, the world's No. 1 superstar, even if the morale and self-confidence are useless.

Instead, keep a low profile to see if you can make the Chinese team proud and underestimate the enemy, and fight for the opportunity to beat the Chinese team in an upset.

Cheng Hai and his teammates didn't care, in the face of absolute strength, the upset of the Japanese team did not exist.

In Asia, Cheng Hai has absolute confidence to lead the team to defeat any opponent.

Last year's Asian Cup was able to reach the top, and this year's strength of Cheng Hai has improved a lot, and the Japanese team will definitely not be able to stop Cheng Hai.

Soon, the time came to 14:00 noon on August 7, with the whistle of the Italian referee Rocchi, the 2012 London Olympic Games men's semifinals of the Chinese Olympic team VS the Japanese Olympic team officially began at Wembley Stadium.

In order to defend Cheng Hai, the Japanese team sent a 4321 Christmas tree three back formation in this game to curb Cheng Hai's offensive ability.

However, even so, in the face of Cheng Hai's super personal strength, and without the referee's favoritism, the Japanese team's defense line with four defenders and three backs and two forwards only lasted for more than ten minutes, and was broken in the 14th minute.

It was not Cheng Hai who scored, but full-back Rao Weihui, but it was Cheng Hai who assisted.

It was Cheng Hai's series of breakthroughs and passes on the right side, as well as the signs that seemed to be about to cut inside the goal, that made the entire Japanese defense line very nervous, and almost swarmed to defend Cheng Hai.

As a result, Cheng Hai made a long pass in the air after the change of rhythm and smashing the ball, and sent the ball to the back of the penalty area.

Rao Weihui rushed into the penalty area unguarded, and with a standard fish leap, he headed the ball into the goal guarded by Shuichi Gonda.

Cheng Hai assisted Rao Weihui to open the scoring, and the Chinese team led Japan 1-0.

After scoring the lead, the Chinese team can play more calmly, while the Japanese team has to step up the attack.

But to strengthen the attack, we have to face the counterattack of the Huaguo team.

In the 21st minute, Japan was almost hit by the Chinese team with a quick counterattack, but unfortunately after Cheng Hai passed the ball to Cao Yunding, Cao Yunding made a mistake with the ball and was cut off by the opponent's fullback.

Although this counterattack did not succeed, it still scared the Japanese team, so that they had to attack while guarding against Cheng Hai, Cao Yunding, Dong Xuesheng and others in the next time.

However, the strength of the Japanese Olympic team itself is only at the Asian level, and it is only a U23-level team, facing Cheng Hai, the world's number one superstar, the result of too much distraction is to be beaten through the defense line by Cheng Hai's long-distance run.

In the 28th minute, Cheng Hai received the ball from his teammates near the center circle after breaking the ball, and then used the crotch pass, Marseille maneuver, and bicycle to connect three people, and one person broke through the Japanese team's defense to form a single knife, and finally faced the attacking goalkeeper to volley into the far corner.

Cheng Hai scored to make the score 2-0, and the Huaguo team took a two-goal lead.

The Japanese team is relatively stable after falling behind by one goal, but after falling behind by two goals, the Japanese team is not stable.

They have already reached the semi-finals, and the Japanese team naturally wants to enter the finals and win the championship. Even if the opponent is Cheng Hai, they want to win.

Therefore, in the next game, the Japanese team pressed forward aggressively, wanting to use a ferocious offensive to break through the defense of the Chinese team and score goals.

But it backfired, and their attack not only failed to score, but was quickly punished.

In the 36th minute, Cheng Hai counterattacked again, and after dribbling to the front court and making a collision with his teammates, Cheng Hai shot vigorously from outside the penalty area 26 meters away, and once again broke through the goal guarded by Shuichi Gonda.

Before the end of the first half, Cheng Hai staged a good show of two shots and one pass, helping the Chinese team to take a 3-0 lead and basically lock up the victory.

Of course, in the character of the Japanese, they will not easily admit defeat, especially against China, which is a great enemy of life and death.

Therefore, seeing that the score was three goals behind, the head coach of the Japanese team did not care that the first half was not over, so he made substitution adjustments, removed two midfielders, replaced one forward and one striker, and changed to a 4132 formation to strengthen the attack.

Japan, who had increased their attacking numbers, did threaten the Hwakook goal in the 40th minute, when striker Kensuke Nagai almost broke the Hwakook goal with a powerful shot from the edge of the penalty area.

Fortunately, goalkeeper Wang Dalei concentrated and made a timely side save to save the ball from the bottom line.

The next corner kick was withdrawn to the penalty area, and Cheng Hai, who participated in the defense, pushed out of the penalty area to clear the siege, and did not give the Japanese team a chance to head the goal.

Next, the Japanese team continued to attack, and the Chinese team continued to defend.

But in fact, the Japanese team's offense was really inefficient under Cheng Hai's physical sweep and pressing, and it was difficult to score even within 30 meters of the goal, let alone the penalty area.

On the contrary, the Chinese team seems to be being pressed and beaten by Japan, but once the ball changes hands, it is very easy to form a counterattack.

Because Cheng Hai's personal strength is too strong, whether it is a personal breakthrough with the ball, a long-distance run, or a long pass, or a straight assist to teammates, he can form a great threat to the Japanese team's backline.

Although not every assist can be turned into a goal by a teammate, the number of times is too many for the Japanese team to bear.

No, in the 45th minute of the first half, after entering stoppage time, a long-range shot from outside the penalty area of the Japanese team was blocked by central defender Zhang Linpeng.

The blocked ball fell at the feet of the back midfielder Maitijiang, who immediately turned around and sent the ball to the feet of fullback Wu Xi who was inserted on the side, and the Huaguo team launched a quick counterattack.

The ball was quickly sent to the front court with three passes and two downs, so that the Huaguo team formed a three-on-three situation, two of the central defenders stopped Cheng Hai on the way forward with the ball, and there was a defender on the left to defend Dong Xuesheng, but Cao Yunding, who was diagonally inserted into the penalty area on the right, was unguarded.

Cheng Hai was not greedy, and he didn't have to break through the two guards who intercepted him, but decisively gave the ball to Cao Yunding.

Cheng Hai's full vision and passing skills allowed him to send a wonderful pass, which was not only not destroyed by the opponent halfway, but also just fell in front of Cao Yunding, and Cao Yunding was not offside.

The next thing is simple, Cao Yunding took the ball a little, adjusted the center of gravity, and entered the big penalty area, and then faced the attacking goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda, Cao Yunding played a pick.

The ball flew past Shuichi Gonda's legs, who wanted to reach out to block the ball, and then fell into the goal behind him without any suspense.

Before the end of the first half, Cheng Hai scored two goals and assists to help the Huaguo team take a 4-0 lead.

With such a score, it can basically declare the end of this game.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and the Japanese team did not shrink their defense to avoid conceding more goals, but continued the tactics of the second half of the first half, and attacked the Chinese team in the half of the field.

Perhaps, in the minds of the Japanese, even if they know that they are bound to lose, it is more important to score a goal to save a little face than to concede fewer goals.

That's why they chose to continue their onslaught.

However, Cheng Hai's sweeping defense covering the entire midfield, coupled with the supplementary defense of his teammates, made the Japanese team's attack never achieve much effect.

On the contrary, it was the Chinese team that scored again in the 57th minute.

Cheng Hai's long-distance run through several people made Japanese defender Hiroki Sakai finally make the choice of tactical foul, put Cheng Hai down about 23 meters from the goal, received a yellow card, and gave Cheng Hai a free kick with a good position.

In the prayer of the Japanese that Cheng Hai would not be able to take a free kick, Cheng Hai did it in one fell swoop, kicked a perfect arc, bypassed the human wall, bypassed the goalkeeper, and flew into the Japanese team's near goal against the goalpost.

Cheng Hai scored a hat-trick and helped the Chinese team to a 5-0 victory, and there was no suspense in the game.

But the game wasn't over yet, and the Japanese team didn't stop attacking.

Anyway, the game was impossible to win, and the Japanese team simply gave up on themselves, and even two full-backs rushed to the front to participate in the attack, vowing to score a goal or two to save a little face.

But their wish never came true.

Because of Cheng Hai's participation in defense, as well as the unity of the Huaguo team, and the extraordinary performance of goalkeeper Wang Dalei.

In the 73rd minute, the Japanese team once attacked the penalty area and hit a high-quality shot, but it was saved by Wang Dalei.

The saved ball fell at the feet of Japanese player Yuki Otsu, who reflexively stabbed the ball into the empty goal, but was unexpectedly saved by Wang Dalei.

Wang Dalei staged a brave two consecutive saves to keep the Japanese team's shots out, attracting a round of applause from tens of thousands of overseas Chinese fans in the stands.

Wang Dalei's two consecutive saves knocked down the last spirit of the Japanese players, and it seemed that they could no longer raise the momentum of vowing to score.

In the next game, although the Japanese team is still attacking, the offensive is not as fierce as before.

Head coach Sun Wei immediately changed two people in a row, allowing the main players to take the opportunity to rest and prepare for the finals.

However, Cheng Hai did not end up.

As a result, Cheng Hai, who was not substituted off the field, assisted his teammates to score again in the 85th minute.

This time it was not Cheng Hai's attack with the ball, but after he attracted a lot of defensive attention in the middle, fullback Cao Yunding dribbled the ball from the back to the front.

After arriving at the frontcourt, Cao Yunding made an inward cutting posture, and the defenders who were originally defending Cheng Hai had to intercept him.

The strength of defending Cheng Hai decreased, and Cheng Hai was proficient in running without the ball, and soon ran out of the gap and received a pass from Cao Yunding.

But the Japanese team's defensive attention to Cheng Hai was quite concentrated, and when they saw Cao Yunding's pass, three or four defenders immediately surrounded Cheng Hai.

However, this attack was originally a counterattack, and the Japanese team's personnel did not all return to the defense.

Three or four people went to surround Cheng Hai at once, and there was naturally a serious shortage of people in other places.

Cheng Hai didn't force a breakthrough, but just gently knocked the ball to the middle, and Maitijiang, who was inserted in the back row, rushed into the penalty area, and kicked the ball into the lower left corner of the goal without stopping the ball.

Goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda made a save, but he couldn't reach it and could only watch the ball go into the net.

Cheng Hai scored a double hat-trick of goals and assists to help the Chinese team take a 6-0 lead.

After completing this assist, Cheng Hai was finally replaced by coach Sun Wei. Because Sun Wei was afraid that the Japanese would be angry and deliberately injured Cheng Hai, if Cheng Hai was absent from the finals, the Chinese team would be blind.

Therefore, although Cheng Hai's physical fitness could play until the end of the game, Sun Wei still replaced Cheng Hai in advance.

In the last few minutes, although the Japanese team was still attacking and the Chinese team was still defending, perhaps the reality of six goals behind made the Japanese players too desperate, their attack was almost of no quality, and the occasional long-range shot from outside the box was also very deflected.

After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the Chinese Olympic team slaughtered the Japanese Olympic team with a score of 6-0 in the semi-finals with Cheng Hai's goal assist double hat trick, and advanced to the final with their heads held high, and qualified for the championship and gold medal.

More than two hours later, the second semi-final ended, and the Brazilian Olympic team unsurprisingly defeated Mexico with a score of 3-0 and advanced to the final.

In fact, Brazil have won five World Cups, but not a single Olympic title.

Therefore, the men's football final of the 2012 London Olympics is destined to give birth to an Olympic champion team!
