Chapter 259: The future is bright

"Gao Zheng is going to pass it on...... Eh!! Eh!! Oh yes!! When the football fell into the Qatari goal, He Ping roared excitedly.

Not only him, but all the Chinese fans in front of the TV jumped at this time, raised their arms and shouted.

The emotions they had suppressed for a long time could finally be vented.

In this game, the Chinese team can accept a draw, but what cannot be accepted is a defeat.

Now that the Chinese team has equalized, they see hope.

As long as they return to their home stadium and beat Qatar, they will be firmly in top of the group and directly qualified for the round of 12, rather than comparing the results with the second place in the other groups.

The few Chinese fans at the scene also seemed to come to life, they jumped up from their seats, and then waved the five-star red flag in their hands vigorously, cheering loudly for Gao Zheng.

Although in the other noises at the scene, their applause may not be heard by Gao Zheng.

But it doesn't matter, they believe that Gao Zheng can see this bright five-star red flag!

Sure enough, Gao Zheng, who scored the goal, ran straight to the bottom of the stands where Chinese fans gathered, and then raised his arms and pointed to them in the stands above to interact with them.

The other Chinese players also ran over happily to celebrate with Gao Zheng.

This goal also made the stone in their hearts fall to the ground.

Everyone was panicked before, and they could only follow Qatar's ass and run for their lives.

But now they don't think so.

It's all equal, what are you afraid of?

※※※

When Wu Lei warmed up on the sidelines, he knew that he was going to play with expectations, and he wanted to go up to help Gao Zheng, but it was obvious that Gao Zheng lacked support.

After he came on the field, with his cooperation, Gao Zheng could be liberated, and the Chinese team would also have a chance to equalize.

Unexpectedly, he was only halfway through the warm-up, and Gao Zheng helped the Chinese team equalize!

It seems that people don't need their own help......

Wu Lei was a little disappointed, but quickly adjusted his mood.

That's Gao Zheng.

How can a real Gao Zheng need help from others?

Qatar must have felt that Gao Zheng had no outstanding performance in the previous game, so they really thought that they had prevented Gao Zheng......

It's ridiculous, as long as you give Gao Zheng any chance, Gao Zheng can take your life!

Wu Lei no longer cared about whether he would have a chance to play after Gao Zheng equalized, and he spoke out for the Chinese captain.

Gao Zheng's goal at least kept the team alive.

This is more important than anything else.

※※※

Perrin also sighed, he felt like he had walked through the ghost gate.

If he loses this match, he can imagine how much pressure he will have to go back to China.

He knows very well how public opinion in China views him now, and he does not feel that the Chinese are "ungrateful." That's the way it is in football, when you perform well, everyone lifts you up, but if you don't perform well, you deserve to be scolded.

After the game restarted, he quickly sent Wu Lei onto the field.

Before, Gao Zheng was at the forefront alone, playing a single striker. He has to fight hand-to-hand with the opposing defender alone, but also constantly retreat to meet his teammates, and he must be both a bridgehead for the attack and an offensive finisher, and the task can be said to be very heavy.

And Wu Lei's play can help him share some of the pressure.

On top of that, Wu Lei is the only striker in this Chinese team who can keep up with his pace.

With him, Gao Zheng at least won't keep the football under his feet all the time, and he doesn't know who to pass it to.

After coming on the field, Wu Lei also consciously moved closer to Gao Zheng, cruising around him like a wingman, ready to pick up Gao Zheng at any time.

Wu Lei's off-ball running ability and acceleration of initiation did make Qatar's backline very uncomfortable.

With the partnership of Wu Lei and Gao Zheng, the Chinese team's offensive is more threatening, and Qatar originally wanted to take the lead again, but now it seems that it will not be easy for them to keep a draw......

※※※

But they still failed to keep the tie in the end, in the eighty-fifth minute, Gao Zheng and Wu Lei played a beautiful cooperation, Gao Zheng passed the football to Kongdang, Wu Lei also ran to Kongdang at that time, and formed a single knife after receiving Gao Zheng's pass.

Wu Lei did not finish the shot in the expectation of the Chinese fans, but after attracting the defensive attention of the Qatari players, he passed the football sideways and gave it to Gao Zheng, who was inserted after passing the ball.

And when Gao Zheng received the ball, he was basically facing an empty goal.

He didn't waste the kindness sent by Wu Lei, and easily pushed the goal. scored his second goal of the game.

2:1!

The Chinese team has completed the reversal!

"Lore !!" He Ping yelled excitedly, "This is a lore!" Attaboy! Wu Lei assisted, Gao Zheng killed the game!! ”

Although everyone thinks that it would be good for the Chinese team to draw with Qatar away, this result is completely acceptable. But if you can win, why not?

Will anyone refuse victory?

If they can beat Qatar away, the Chinese team will be three points ahead of Qatar, and in the next round of 40, the Chinese team will firmly occupy the initiative.

※※※

Qatar clearly did not expect that they would face the possibility of losing on their home turf.

After Gao Zheng scored a goal, the Qatari players stood on the court one by one, and could only watch Gao Zheng hug Wu Lei and celebrate the goal.

This scene fell in their eyes and pierced their hearts deeply.

If they lose to China on their home turf, Qatar will be cornered, and they will have to beat China away from home to get it all back.

But how can the home of the Chinese team be so easy to win? In particular, they also have Gao Zheng.

You can't afford to lose to them on your home turf!

Thinking so, the Qatari players launched a wave of offensive against the Chinese team's goal after the game restarted.

The Chinese team, on the other hand, contracted its defense under the command of Perrin and launched a defensive counterattack.

Anyway, they now have a player with speed like Wu Lei in front of them, and they also have the basis for counterattacking.

Gao Zheng and Wu Lei constantly harassed Qatar's backline in front to help their defense relieve some defensive pressure.

At the end of the 90-minute game, the fourth official on the sidelines raised the sign for stoppage time, which lasted for six minutes!

This caused discontent among Chinese fans in front of the television.

"A few substitutions in the second half, and six minutes of stoppage time? This referee is too dark! ”

"West Asian football, normal operation ......"

"Actually, I think the referee in this game is quite fair, at least they didn't award a penalty in the Chinese team's penalty area after Qatar fell behind......"

"Only six minutes of stoppage time? I thought the referees would have to make up 60 minutes of stoppage time! The referee's conscience only let the dog eat half of it, and it's okay......"

※※※

Although the referee team gave the game a six-minute stoppage time, the Chinese players were united and withstood the huge pressure.

At the last moment, the game almost turned into a defensive drill in the 30-meter area of the Chinese team.

Gao Zheng and Wu Lei also pulled back to help defend.

United, they formed an impregnable wall and withstood Qatar's frantic last-minute counterattack.

When the referee reluctantly blew the full-time whistle in the 97th minute, the Chinese team's substitutes and coaching staff rushed onto the pitch to hug the players who had worked hard.

To be able to take all three points away from home is a fantastic victory.

Although the Chinese team had the upper hand with six wins, four draws and four losses in the pre-match historical record, the Chinese team had a bad record against Qatar in the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup, with one win, three draws and three losses, without any advantage at all.

So it was not easy for the Chinese team to beat Qatar in the World Cup qualifiers.

With the victory of this game, the morale of the Chinese team has also increased greatly and their confidence has been greatly increased.

The prospect of the Chinese team advancing to the round of 12 suddenly became clear.
