Chapter 109: Monday Board Evolves into Zhou Giant
At halftime, Zhou Qi, who had just scored 2+1, could finally straighten his waist, raised his eyebrows and exhaled a sigh, without the sense of pressure that he wanted to suffocate just now, the feeling of scoring a goal was so wonderful, Zhou Qi now feels that the whole person is about to crack, and he is full of confidence again.
……
Going into the second half.
"Li Yang, Abdul Salamu, Zhou Qi, Wang Zhelin, Liu Zhixuan, a few of you continue to go." Li Nan waved his hand and said to a few people, "Play hard, we are only 4 points ahead, and we may be overtaken at any time, so we must open the gap as soon as possible." ”
"Yes." Several people roared, and their morale was like a rainbow.
led by 4 points, and also knocked down the opposing guard by one person, the morale of the Chinese basketball team was particularly strong, and it was not afraid to compete with Iran.
The third quarter of the game began, and the Iranian team attacked.
Zhou Qi turned his head to look at Haddadi, who was still a little out of breath, he suddenly found that his opponent's physical strength seemed to be too exhausted, and his steps were a little sluggish, Zhou Qi suddenly had doubts about his previous defensive strategy.
Zhou Qi decided to try again, for Zhou Qi's request, the Iranian team naturally couldn't ask for it, in their opinion, this is obviously a thousand miles to send people's heads, how can it be justified not to accept it.
Everyone in the stadium felt that as long as the Iranian team could pass the ball to Haddadi's hands, then the Iranian team's attack was basically stable.
Haddadi began to hit Zhou Qi with his back, and Li Yang had been walking nearby with small broken steps ready to wrap at any time, but Zhou Qi stubbornly passed him a look and signaled that he wanted to defend alone, and Li Yang could only give up, after all, the face of his teammates still had to be taken care of.
This time Zhou Qi didn't go all out to top Haddadi, he wanted to withdraw the stool again in the process of the opponent's strength, but the old Haddadi had already seen through his plan in the process of being in the position, and Haddadi's back hit was completely normal arch man, facing Zhou Qi like a bamboo pole with his tonnage, on the basis of the weight difference of 20kg between the two, he almost didn't need to sink his shoulders and charge strength, and directly pushed hard.
Zhou Qi also found that his plan was ineffective in the process of retreating, so he let Haddadi push directly to the basket without defense.
Looking at the basket close at hand, Haddadi roared angrily, and turned around to come to a violent frame!!
Zhou Qi, who was waiting for a long time, was waiting for this moment!
A nimble dead fat man like Haddadi can only get a good starting height under high-speed running, and in the face of confrontation, a strong dunk on the spot is not a project that a veteran like him is good at.
Zhou Qi jumped vertically, his hands were held high, and Zhou Qi, who had an advantage in age, physical strength, arm span, and bounce, and appearance, suppressed Haddadi to the death when he couldn't borrow his strength in the air!
Haddadi, who was working in the air, pushed Zhou Qi away, and could only instinctively throw the ball above the rebound with experience.
After the two landed, Zhou Qi jumped up and down quickly, angrily picked up a board, and the board reappeared on Monday!
Zhou Qi didn't have the heart to show off his power with Haddadi, he threw his long arm and quickly passed the ball to Li Yang who was about to cross the three-point line, and after handing over the ball, he also lowered his head and chased Li Yang to the backcourt of the Iranian team with a sprinting speed!
Mesam, who was in a high position, retreated as soon as possible, and his rich defensive experience allowed him to delay Li Yang's fast attack, and Li Yang could only suppress the rhythm and focus on organizing the attack.
Zhou Qi, who played with self-confidence in one attack and one defense, now asks for the ball on the right side of the free throw line after the Chinese team failed to get a chance to pass the ball several times.
In the face of Haddadi's defense, Zhou Qi made no secret of it, decisively started to break through, took a step with his long legs, and instantly passed Haddadi, whose legs weighed like a thousand pounds.
Mesam, the last barrier of the Iranian team, strode over to make up for the defense, at this time Wang Zhelin was at a zero degree angle, Zhou Qi thought that it was not the range of attack he was good at, so he decided to attack the frame directly!
Zhou Qi took three steps, and threw his right hand in advance! The ball is on the spot with every step! Zhou Qi felt that this was a must-score!
But after Mesam's jump, his feet suddenly kicked in the air, as if there was a second borrowing, and the height was raised out of thin air, and then his fingertips happened to touch the rising basketball!
After cutting off the ball, the basketball fell into Mesam's arms!
"Peat, isn't this Wudang's Tiyunzong? There is still such an operation, and you can't use the strength to kick the legs, and I can obey you without supporting the wall!! Zhou Qi looked dumbfounded.
This extreme block made the fans boil again, and the passionate shouts of the crowd also injected extra impetus into the Iranian team.
Mesam, who has experienced the game, has already seen through Zhou Qi's defensive strategy, and at this time he stood up to ask for the ball in the low post, and Haddadi, who was too physically exhausted, also consciously gave up the basket.
The first is that Haddadi's own ball quotient is not low, he is old and sophisticated, and he has already seen the doorway in this, and the second is that his physical strength is indeed a little weak and he can't keep up with Zhou Qi's footsteps.
Mesam shrugged his shoulders left and right, Wang Zhelin's center of gravity was vain, Mesam turned around and was about to jump, Wang Zhelin was sure that this judgment would be blocked when he jumped, but Mesam didn't make a shot when he received the ball!
A clean back turn and a left-handed pick-and-roll hit!
The difference is narrowed to 2 points! But the fans of the Chinese team are not flustered, they all think that Li Yang and Zhou Qi will eventually lead the Chinese team to victory!
Over the next few rounds, both teams took their offense to the extreme, starting to score each other on the offensive end, alternating the scores, and neither was able to pull the score!
After Coach Li Nan replaced Dong Hanlin on the court, the Chinese team used Wang Zhelin, Zhou Qi, and Dong Hanlin on the inside line to take turns to consume the physical strength of Haddadi and Mesam, and both sides focused on defense in the second half of the quarter, especially Li Yang's hard work, and finally the Chinese team led by 3 points at 59:56 into the fourth quarter.
Entering the deciding game, the Iranian team scored 2 points as soon as Mesam scored a basket, and the two sides basically stood on the same running line at 58:59.
Until the last minute, the two sides played back and forth, and the difference was always within 3 points.
As the game entered the 48th quarter, Jacques Charli dribbled to the top of the arc and hoisted the ball to Haddadi.
Haddadi responded with a high position, and Bahrami took advantage of Messam's off-ball cover, shook off Abdul Salamu's follow-up defense, and cut into the inside to make a layup.
With 32 seconds left in the game, the Chinese team served, and the score was 84:83, and the Iranian team was still one point behind.
Coach Li Nan called a timeout in time, and the tactic he arranged was that Zhou Qi caused the opponent to change defenses for Li Yang's running cover, so that Li Yang could directly break through or shoot three points directly.
Li Yang directly chose to break through when facing Haddadi, and if Mesam made up for the defense, he immediately distributed the ball to Wang Zhelin under the basket.
Li Nan's tactical arrangement is like this, giving up the horn tactics that he is best at.
The players of both teams also returned to the field, and the fans at the scene stood up excitedly at this time, doing their best to cheer for their respective teams.
Wang Zhelin served in the midfield, and saw that Li Yang was stuck to two people and couldn't get rid of it, so in a hurry, Wang Zhelin could only pass the ball to Liu Zhixuan, who was in the vacant position.
Liu Zhixuan stood in the area of the middle circle and looked up at the timer above his head, waiting for the time to pass by second by second.
Li Yang and Abdul Salamu were ambushed in the bottom corners of both sides, while Zhou Qi and Wang Zhelin stood in the low positions on both sides, typical of bull horn positions.
When there were twelve seconds left in the offensive time, Zhou Qi pulled the defender Mesam outside the three-point line, but when Zhou Qi slowed down and prepared to cover, Mesam completed the overtaking in two brisk steps in an instant, and completed the encirclement with Bahrami in advance.
Both of them are known for their strength, and Liu Zhixuan, who is slightly petite, lost his passing vision under the siege of the two.
Zhou Qi hurriedly ran to Liu Zhixuan's diagonal back to answer, and shouted anxiously at Liu Zhixuan: "Zhixuan, here!" ”
In a panic, Liu Zhixuan didn't pay attention to Zhou Qi's position, so he immediately shot the ball.
At this time, Zhou Qi was already standing in the dead corner in front of the technical table, and Mesam immediately stepped forward to block Zhou Qi inside!
Zhou Qi had no space to dribble, and Mesam pressed forward step by step, secretly exerting force, and the situation was very critical.
In desperation, Zhou Qi could only jump up and pass the ball on the spot, but fortunately, Li Yang rushed to catch the ball in time to save the urgent need of the Chinese team, and when Zhou Qi successfully passed the ball to Li Yang's hands, there were only 8 seconds left in the attack time!
Li Yang started quickly, one accelerated and threw off Jacques Chari and quickly burst into the basket, Haddadi came to make up for it, Li Yang couldn't shoot at all in the air confrontation, he could only twist his body in the air and give the ball to Abdul Salamu!
Abdul Salamu was just about to go to the basket, and Haddadi instantly returned to the defense after landing!
Zhou Qi: "Pass!" ”
Zhou Qi, who was desperately sprinting from the half, had already entered the three-second zone, and he shouted loudly to his teammates!
And Mesam was still gritting his teeth behind him to chase back, but the two had already opened up a considerable distance.
Abdul Salamu made a ground-hitting pass to Zhou Qi, who was running at high speed in the middle, and Haddadi also completed the turn in an instant.
As soon as Zhou Qi raised his hand after receiving the ball, he flew Haddadi who flew away, Zhou Qi no longer hesitated, and directly hit the rebound with his left hand!
The timer sounds at the same time!
Iran's players on the field and coaches on the sidelines are desperately making gestures to the referee for overtime.
The players of the Chinese team are pointing to the ground with their fingers little by little to indicate that the goal is valid, and the coaches of the two teams are also very excited.
The referees were quickly surrounded, and the referees exchanged two simple sentences to signal everyone to calm down first, and they needed to watch the video replay before announcing the result.
The players of the two teams temporarily returned to the bench, and Li Yang and Zhou Qi high-fived each other, and then gathered around Li Nan to listen to the coach's arrangement.
Li Nan: "If this goal is invalid, we will start to mark people, and quickly change the defense when we encounter a block, pay attention not to foul, a foul is equivalent to sending points!" ”
Li Nan urgently arranged the final offense and defense, and at this time, the referees had already made a judgment through video replay, and the fans cheered all over the field, and Zhou Qi's key goal was effective!
At 86:83, the Chinese team led by three points, not to say that it would win at least not lose.
Time is running out for the Iranian team, with only 8 seconds left!
