In such a dignified life-and-death battle, the game was played for more than 40 minutes before the first yellow card was issued, which can indeed be regarded as fair play.

The foul is just a little past the halfway line, at such a distance, Italy's set-piece tactics will use the strategy of hanging the penalty area to let the big man grab the point, Chiellini has gone up, but Cannavaro was about to make a long pass, but was stopped by Meng Er, who turned back and evacuated, and the second brother hooked his hand to ask for the ball.

The technical level of the players of the Chinese team is not very good, but the height is still very good enough, one meter and eight meters in the water, and the standard long people are like forests, and they are not afraid of aerial balls.

Meng Erge took the ball and observed slowly outside the 40-meter line, and the two sides in front of him kept changing their positions like marquees. The second brother is not in a hurry to move forward, because he will come up after entering the forty-meter defense, usually two people. And after entering the thirty meters, Zhuo Yang came in person.

There was really no chance except for hard hanging, so the second brother decided to enter the forty-meter line first to test the water.

Li Jinyu stepped over from the side, the second brother didn't care too much, this striker was more just for show. The big fish grabbed it, and the second brother just let it go sideways, and continued to carry the ball unhurriedly and slowly pushed forward.

Lippi looked up at the big score, and the first half was almost over. The veteran coach is already considering a substitution in the midfield, and time is a cruel reality for Italy, so they have to take the risk of attacking. It seems that the only person who can be replaced is Gattuso, who is not helpful to the attack, which makes Lippi very hesitant.

At this moment, Lippi saw Montolivo gesturing for Gattuso to come closer to meet him.

When Meng Er was about to approach the 30-meter line with Deng Bangxiang, Zhuo Yang adjusted his position and was ready to take over the defense of the second brother at any time. The second brother knows how difficult his brother is, and if he doesn't lose the ball and don't be beaten by him, he will be considered successful, so he doesn't plan to compete with Zhuo Yang.

No one else could help him, only Gattuso, who had 'nothing to do', and the second brother summoned him.

It wasn't until the eighth master got close to within five meters that the second brother swung his leg and knocked the football to him. After making a gesture, Meng Er stabbed through the diagonal stab behind the eighth master, allowing him to act as a wall to block Deng Bangxiang, who tried to follow.

The eighth master listened to the command, and the football was pushed back to Meng Er. At this time, after Meng Er's slow reasoning, Chiellini's big men in the midfield and backfield have gradually withdrawn from the key areas of the Chinese team and are returning to their respective positions, and the area in front is not as shoulder to shoulder as just now.

Suddenly, Second Brother Meng broke out and fired directly and remotely at a distance of 33 meters, destroying flowers with simple and rude hands.

At a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, 33 meters only takes 0.99 seconds, and the second brother is very unreasonable.

Wang Dalei was defenseless, even Zhuo Yang didn't expect the second brother to come out like this. When the ball exploded into the top corner of the goal almost straight, Wang Dalei barely reacted.

With a score of 1:1, the Chinese team is not dead, and Italy is not alive yet.

.

Although the match between Paraguay and Cameroon did not affect the result here, Zhuo Yang still asked about the score at halftime. In the final round, two matches in the same group will be played at the same time. After hearing that it was 0:0, Zhuo Yang let out an 'oh' and stopped caring.

The Chinese team played at their strongest level in the first half, but they were still struggling against Italy. Zhuo Yang also swayed his football offensive and defensive wisdom to the extreme, but he still couldn't get rid of Gattuso's stubborn play.

Italy is difficult, the Chinese team is even more difficult, maintaining a draw is always a dangerous job, and the Chinese team has died in the history of 'drawing and qualifying'. It stands to reason that the Chinese team should continue to focus on me and burn the fire in the midfield as much as possible, but in front of a team with deep tactical background like Italy, the Chinese team can't do it. Even if this is a bad Italy team, the Chinese team cannot be tactically equal to it, and the ability is so. The best choice is to rely on the control of the ball and the time of foreign workers.

Before half-time, Meng Er was attacked by Meng Er, and although the Chinese players were surprised, they did not panic. Everyone knows that in this life-and-death battle, it is difficult for the weak defense of the Chinese team not to concede goals. Li Jinyu's goal was a surprise, but everyone also knows that if the Chinese team wants to advance safely, the only hope is Zhuo Yang.

Gattuso is too old and spicy in defense, and Zhuo Yang estimates that according to the convention, he doesn't have much hope of walking him out of neurosis and fighting again, because the eighth master himself is insane.

No, I have to find a way to make the eighth master suffer a loss. Zhuo Yangxin said. And the eighth master is a person who is thick on the outside and thin on the inside, and there are so many crooked intestines in his stomach that he can open the gourd head chain, and he will only be fooled once, and he will react if he misses a blow.

.

Don't fix something if it's not broken! There were no substitutions in the second half, with Lippi replacing left wing-back Krisito with Maggio. Italy isn't bad either, but they're pressed for time. Maggio's assists on the right flank were of some standard, and his role at right wing-back was also a cautious attacking gesture, with Zambrotta switching sides to play at left-back.

As in the first half, it was Italy that took the lead in attacking, and Maggio, who changed hands like a knife, crossed from the right side, and the Chinese defender missed Di Natale. Last season's top scorer in Serie A shook his head 8 meters in front of the goal, Wang Dalei was not polite to him, and directly exploded his character, and a thunderbolt slapped the football out with one palm.

Two minutes later, Iaquinta couldn't get rid of the left and right twists from the inside, and when he saw that he was about to lose the ball, he couldn't care much, so he raised his cheeks and forced a shot. The line was full of legs, and his shot was far out of the sideline with Feng Xiaoting's raised left foot.

Maggio threw the ball from the sideline, and Simone Pepe suddenly erased Sun Xiang's throat before cutting into the Chinese penalty area.

Italy's line-up is actually a continuation of the world champions four years ago, and not much has changed. But except for Meng Er's growth, the other positions have declined a lot compared to four years ago, and the regression of the old people is very obvious. There are also a few newcomers, among whom Pepe has been called the 'biggest discovery' because of his good performances in the first two games.

The 27-year-old Pepe is a jack-of-all-trades up front, and he has played as a right-sided midfielder in the previous two games, and he can be regarded as the best performer in Italy except for Monji. Although he has not yet been accepted by the giants, Juventus is said to have initialled him.

Pepe played as a right winger today, which is his favourite position. But he was not in a good mood today, because before the game, his wife called to say that the Udinese tax department was going to check his taxes and asked what to do. What can I do? Whoever gets on these things is unlucky. More than half of the world's professional footballers are looking for ways to avoid taxes, so why just look me? I've only made a few bucks! Pepe was very angry.

Two horizontal swaying steps in a row, Pepe lit Li Tie and Zheng Qi to fly, and before Li Weifeng hurriedly blocked it, he opened his left foot to vent the depression in his heart.
