Although only Feng Xiaoting and Zhang Linpeng have received the bonus of [Light of the Great God] in the back line of the Chinese team, after the three key attributes of [Strength] (8%), [Header] (10%) and [Defensive Ability] (10%) have been improved, the penalty area in which the two of them sit suddenly greatly reduced the impact of the Australian team.

Even Australia's midfield has the likes of Bresciano, but the rest of the midfielders are known for their strength and confrontation.

As a result, even in the face of the Chinese team, which is difficult to call first-class in Asia in terms of foot technology and passing and cutting coordination, it is difficult for the Australian team to take advantage. After all, no matter how good Bresciano's skills are, he can't do without the support of his teammates if he wants to organize a subtle cooperation, not to mention that his ability only has a certain advantage in Asian football at most.

Of course, the reason why the Chinese team was able to gain the upper hand in the midfield competition also benefited from the help of [Great God's Light].

Although Zheng Zhi, who is very disciplined, still maintains a good competitive condition, even if he plays a full 90 minutes in a row, it will not have much impact, but as he gets older, his speed and physical flexibility also show a natural decline.

However, with the help of [Great God's Light], not only did Zheng Zhi's [Flexibility] basically return to the peak level, but at the same time, his [Dribbling] and [Passing Accuracy] directly improved his overall strength by a notch after receiving bonuses.

Even so, Zheng Zhi in this state still can't reach the level of a world-class midfielder, but the captain of the national football team, who was once elected as the Asian Footballer, is strong enough to rank among the strongest midfielders in this Asian Cup.

Coupled with Wu Xi's all-round and Zhao Xu's toughness, the midfield led by Zheng Zhi will not fall behind no matter what Asian opponent he faces.

As a result, the game presented a scene that shocked most people.

The Chinese team, which was not favored before the game, not only did not surrender quickly, but launched waves of attacks into the Australian team's penalty area with a firm grip on the midfield; The Australian team, which had the advantage of being the hosts, fell into passivity after losing the midfield and the impact style of play was ineffective.

In the 9th minute of the first half, after Zheng Zhi received a pass from his teammates near the center circle of the front court, he first deftly dodged Mark Milligan's save, and then advanced five or six meters before passing the ball to Feng Quan, who was cruising on the left side.

Since Australia coach Postecoglou did not believe that Feng Quan's injury had not healed, he did not ask his players to play a trap defense against Feng Quan.

Unfortunately, Feng Quan's injury has not only fully recovered, but also his physical condition has almost reached its peak state after nearly two weeks of full rest.

Therefore, after receiving the ball, Feng Quan did not make any adjustments, directly flicked the ball in the direction of the baseline, and then relied on his speed advantage to beat the earth, just like a Ferrari supercar ruthlessly crushed Alto, and passed by the defender before he could stand up.

At the same time, Gao Lin and Wu Lei rushed towards the penalty spot and the empty space on the right side of the penalty area respectively at the moment when Feng Quan received the ball. In the eyes of the two of them, as long as Feng Quan can receive the pass from his teammates smoothly, it will be difficult to stop his breakthrough in the Asian arena even if the opponent is double-packed. So, they just need to run to the opponent's most troublesome position and wait for the wind to feed the cake.

If Feng Quan is just a sharp winger, the Australian team will only need to stick to the penalty area, so that the rest of the Chinese team will not be able to successfully complete the outflanking in front of goal.

However, Feng Quan, who won the top scorer in La Liga and the Champions League last season, not only has a sharp breakthrough ability, but also has the best shooting skills in the entire football world, and is also the kind of "all-round" killer who kills inside and outside the penalty area. Once the Australian team chooses to shrink the penalty area, then Feng Quan can take the opportunity to cut inside and attack directly near the penalty area.

Therefore, the Australian team did not hesitate to relax the defense in the penalty area, but also did everything in their power to stop Feng Quan's advance.

However, just as the Australian team's defensive lineup began to move towards the area where Feng Quan was, Feng Quan suddenly passed the ball to the empty space on the right side of the penalty area.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Lei, who had been ambushed near the landing point, unloaded the ball with his chest, and then picked up his right foot and shot the ball in the direction of the near corner of the goal.

Although Australia's defense was very passive, goalkeeper Matthew Ryan did not panic because of the team's passivity. The moment Feng Quan chose to pass the ball, he quickly moved to the right side of the goal; When Wu Lei stopped the ball, his defensive area was enough to cover the goal on the right side.

So, although Wu Lei's shot was done well, Matthew Ryan, who had already stood in advance position, still bravely blocked the ball out of the bottom line.

Although Wu Lei's shot failed to help the Chinese team break the deadlock on the field, many teammates and coaching staff on the bench, Chinese spectators in the stands and tens of millions of domestic fans sitting in front of the TV to watch the game were shocked that Wu Lei was able to complete such a difficult volley.

After the tempering of the Chinese Super League, although Wu Lei's ball skills are constantly improving, there are always certain flaws in Wu Lei's handling of the goal, especially the stop before the shot. In the final analysis, Wu Lei's technique is still not delicate enough.

It is precisely because of this that domestic fans will make an evaluation of Wu Lei: "world-class running, stopping the ball and shooting at the domestic level".

It is true that although Wu Lei can occasionally score some "fairy balls" in the domestic arena, it is still difficult to complete difficult shots so smoothly and accurately most of the time.

And the shot just now, whether it is the handling of the stopping ball, the connection of the shooting action and the choice of shooting footwork, are all world-class. If the shot is more powerful, even if Matthew Ryan gets in the position first, I am afraid it will be difficult to save the end of the goal being broken.

Of course, the reason why Wu Lei was able to complete such a wonderful shot also benefited from the help of [God's Light].

Feng Quan, who was already familiar with Wu Lei's technical defects, did not hesitate to help him improve the attributes of [Technique] and [Shooting Accuracy]. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Wu Lei to shoot the ball within the range of the goal.

In any case, Wu Lei, who almost broke the deadlock on the field, still received cheers from the Chinese fans at the scene and from the bench.

Matthew Ryan's brilliant save kept Australia in the back of the net for the time being, but the loss of momentum in midfield made it difficult for them to turn around the unfavorable situation on the field.
