Running without the ball refers to the ability of a player to run away from a defender or create space to attack without holding the ball.

Inzaghi, an opportunist who survives on the offside line, is one of the world's best-known off-ball runners, and he has taken this skill to the pinnacle of real-world football.

In addition, there is the king of the small penalty area, Ruud van Nistelrooy, who is also a representative of running without the ball to the peak.

The higher the stat of this skill, the easier it will be for the striker to run out of space and get a chance to shoot.

And for Cheng Hai, whose archery skills are as high as 19 points, this skill is simply a miracle skill!

If you add off-ball running to the top, I'm afraid you won't become a master of off-ball running like Inzaghi?

Therefore, in the process of returning to his half court at the end of the celebration and waiting for the opponent to open the circle, Cheng Hai opened the system and took a look, and found that his initial attribute of "running without the ball" was 8, which is the highest initial attribute in Cheng Hai's new skills, which is very good.

Of course, for Cheng Hai, who wants to reach the finals and win the championship, such attributes are definitely not enough.

If you upgrade the 10 skill points you get and add shooting, you will use up all 10 skill points at once if you add 19 to 20 points, so you can use them to add running without a ball.

Therefore, Cheng Hai added all 10 skill points to the "off-ball run", making the off-ball run soar directly from 8 to 14.

After the restart of the game, Iwabe University did not give up on itself because they were three goals behind, but still pressed and attacked aggressively across the board.

With three goals down, the players at Iwabe University knew they wouldn't be able to win.

The reason they still insist on attacking is not to equalise, but just to score more goals and keep more clean sheets.

Iwabe University, who have four points from one win and one loss, will have a chance to qualify for second place in the group by beating their rivals on goal difference, depending on the outcome of the other match played at the same time.

For Cheng Hai, the last few minutes were when he experimented with the power of his new skill "running without the ball".

However, time is running out for both sides to play.

Under the onslaught of Iwabe University, the time quickly came to stoppage time.

In the 91st minute of stoppage time, Cheng Hai really ran a successful anti-offside position in the midfield through the off-ball run.

It's a pity that the straight pass of his teammates in the backfield was a little bigger, and when Cheng Hai was two steps away from catching up with the ball, Nie Changfeng, the goalkeeper of Iwabe University, went out of the penalty area and kicked the ball out of the sideline to clear the siege.

If this straight teammate passes a little smaller, Cheng Hai can catch the ball to form a single knife, and then use his 19-point shooting to score and stage a single game of five goals.

It's a pity that the ball was not passed in place, so Cheng Hai's off-ball running did not play the best effect.

Subsequently, neither side created any more threatening chances.

After three minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, and Yuzhou University defeated Iwabe University 4-1 in the third group stage with Cheng Hai's senior happiness.

After the referee blew the final whistle, Cheng Hai also received the winning reward for this game: 200 experience points.

In addition, Cheng Hai was also judged by the system to be the best player of the game in this game, plus 100 experience.

In the end, Cheng Hai's experience has increased from 50/700 at level 4 to 350/700, which is already half of the level of experience.

After the 4-1 victory over Iwabe University, Yuzhou University won two games and lost one in three games, accumulating 6 points and 2 goal difference.

This point will definitely be higher than Iwabe University, which has 4 points with one win, one draw and one loss, and Peking Sports University, which lost the first two games, and occupies at least one of the two qualifying places.

Whether they will be top or second in the group will depend on the results of the other group stage that will be played at the same time.

There is still a difference between the first group and the second group, and the opponents after entering the knockout round are different.

The first in Group D will play the second in Group A, and the second in Group D will play the first in Group A.

However, no matter what, it is still worth being happy that Yuzhou University still qualified for the group and advanced to the knockout round despite losing 0-3 in the first group stage.

Therefore, not only the players, but even coach Tan Tangping rushed into the stadium excitedly and celebrated warmly with the players.

Especially Cheng Hai's senior happiness, everyone came up to hug him, high-five and clap shoulders to celebrate, and praised again and again.

"I'm a god, Cheng Hai, have you taken medicine? The senior happiness can be played. ”

"That's awesome, I want to ask how I can be as good as you?"

"Cheng Hai, you will be a brother in the future, and we will mess with you!"

"Could it be that you really didn't play well before, and it took you two days to open up and have an epiphany?"

In the midst of everyone's celebration and ridicule, after a while, the result of another match came, and Peking Sports University and Shengjing University of Technology played to a 1-1 draw.

In this way, Yuzhou University ranked first in the group with 6 points from three games, two wins and one loss, Shengjing University of Technology ranked second with 5 points with one win and two draws, Yanbian University ranked third with 4 points with one win, one draw and one loss, and Peking Sports University ranked at the bottom with one draw and two losses with 1 point, and Yuzhou University and Shengjing University of Technology came out together.

As the first team in Group D, Yuzhou University will face Shimen University of Economics in the quarter-finals.

After the group stage, the quarterfinals will be played immediately after the next day, and there is no time to rest.

But even so, most of the team's players still rushed to the cafeteria and asked the cafeteria manager to turn on the TV for everyone to watch live.

Because today is the day of the opening ceremony and opening match of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Because of the time difference, the opening ceremony was at 20:00 in the evening and the opening game was at 22:00, just for domestic fans to watch.

There was nothing to see at the opening ceremony, and what everyone was looking forward to the most was the opening game.

After all, once every four years!

At 22:00 on the evening of June 11, Peking time, the opening match of the 2010 World Cup between the host South Africa vs Mexico officially began.

The two sides were not very close in strength, so the game started in a stalemate, with a 0-0 score stalemate until the end of the first half.

It wasn't until the 55th minute of the second half that South Africa's Mufera went straight and Shabalala successfully entered the penalty area with a small-angle volley against offside, and the host scored the first goal of the World Cup in South Africa.

The Johannesburg Soccer City Stadium, which can accommodate more than 80,000 people, instantly boiled over, and all South Africans fell into a complete frenzy, applauding, cheering and screaming in celebration of Shabalala's goal.

In the cafeteria of Shengjing University of Technology, amid the applause and admiration of other players, Cheng Hai stared at the live broadcast on TV with shining eyes while applauding, and his imagination was fluttering.

Others just praised Shabalala's beautiful counterattack, but Cheng Hai had already thought of the prospect of landing in Europe's top five leagues with the help of the system, being selected for the national team, and representing the motherland in the world-renowned World Cup competition, which caused fans across the country to cheer and worship.

Thinking of these, Cheng Hai looked forward to the next knockout round of Yuzhou University.

As long as he can make it all the way to the final and beat his opponent to win the championship, and complete System Task 1, he will get a chance to try out with a team in one of Europe's top five leagues.

As long as he thought of this, Cheng Hai's heart was hot, and he was not even very interested in the next game on TV.
