Chapter 502: Super Second Half (2)

In the 57th minute of the second half, Italy scored again!

This time it is still from Pirlo's organization, and I have to say that despite his age, Pirlo is still the absolute core of Italy, at least the midfield brain of the current national team.

A seemingly casual pass was plugged into Montolivo, Montolivo stepped on a bicycle, cut inside with his right foot and hit the goal, the previous action was coherent and smooth, it can be said that it was a full score, but then the kick on the goal, it was indeed at the defender level, and there was no difference between the big foot clearance, the ball flew directly to the stands, and finally it seemed that we were in the face of an Italian fan.

A minute later, the Chinese team launched a counterattack, Liu Yu and Wu Lei's tandem tore apart the Italian defense, but unfortunately the final pass was broken by Chiellini in advance, otherwise this goal would be a single knife!

Compared with China's counterattack, Italy faced the entire Chinese backline, they could only play positional battles, but although the Chinese defenders were a little less physical, they could still do it in their usual positions, at least they did not lose much to Italian players in the battle for headers.

Italian players will slowly become impatient with their own mentality, their defenders have tried to shoot long outside the penalty area many times, although it is said that if the long-range shooting ability is strong in the positional battle, it is also a scoring weapon, but the Italian players obviously do not have this ability, although they try to shoot a lot of long-range shots, but eighty percent of the long-range shots are not within the goal range, even if they can hit the goal, the power and angle of the shot are not very good, and there is no test Wang Dalei.

In the 60th minute of the game, the ball was broken from the backfield, and the Italian players made a mistake in cooperating with the ball and passed the ball to the Chinese fullback, who made a long pass directly to Liu Yu, and the opponent's defender had tried his best to chase it, but still did not catch up, Liu Yu was in front of a prairie, and there was only a goalkeeper standing there!

He took the ball down the middle and fired a shot from an angle at the top of the box, but Buffon clearly didn't want to concede any more, he flew and touched the ball, albeit just a little bit of direction, but just a little bit, so that the ball didn't roll towards the goal, but out of the bottom line.

China's corner kick out, not directly to the penalty area, or played a tactical corner kick, this goal is obviously in the usual training has been specially trained, a continuous kick to hit the ball near the opponent's penalty area, midfielder Hao Junmin chose a shot, probably due to the player blocked the view, Buffon did not react at the first time, can only watch a ball fly in the direction of the goal, fortunately, finally hit the post did not talk about it, Italy escaped again.

In the 63rd minute, an Italian cross from the side made a corner, their left corner kick hit the goal, Balotelli was pushed out of the first point of scramble, and then the second point down was obtained by the Italian player, the player volleyed over Wang Dalei in the penalty area, but because Wang Dalei pounced, the ball speed slowed down significantly, and was cleared by the Chinese defender in front of the goal line.

Italy, who had the initiative, finally broke the deadlock in the 65th minute - Balotelli dribbled the ball into the bottom line of the penalty area on the right side and knocked it horizontally, and Pirlo's heel in front of him did it horizontally.

The Italian full-back thought that the striker would hit the goal directly, so he didn't plan to shoot, but Pirlo actually passed the ball to his feet, how could he not laugh at such a big gift?

This kind of grandma can score a goal, if you don't score, it's funny, so close to the goal even if the goalkeeper is in front of him, he may not be able to block it, in fact, his volley easily entered the net, the score came, 4 to 3!

The hope of being one goal behind is much higher than being two goals behind, and it is possible to tie it at least by 90 minutes!

Otherwise, if you are two goals behind, the confidence of the players will be hit, and by the 90th minute, it will be almost impossible to recover at that time.

In the 67th minute, Zhang Xizhe crossed from the left, Wu Lei jumped to the top at the back point, not to mention that this ball was played at the right time, the angle was just right, the only deficiency was that Italy's goalkeeper Buffon hung up, and when the distance was so close, he actually made a world-class save, and the header hit the post in front of the goal!

In the 28th minute, it was still the core of Italy Pirlo's straight stopper, the ball was passed directly to the Chinese team's small penalty area, Balotelli took the ball when China had two or three people go up to open the room, Balotelli wanted to turn around and shoot, but was blocked by a large number of Chinese players, Chiellini on the periphery struggled to step forward to knock the ball across the door, but unfortunately the outflanking players were a step slow.

A minute later, Zhang Xizhe's free kick on the left side was cleared at the first point, and Liu Yu from outside the penalty area missed with a shot.

In the 67th minute, Italy faced China's counterattack, the defender broke the ball in the front field to form a reverse counterattack, at this time the Chinese players have already run to the front, the back line is indeed understaffed, only two people are still dragging in the back line, Balotelli attracted the defense to move to the right side of the penalty area, Montolivo's strong shot was blocked by the Chinese defenders.

In the 68th minute, the Chinese team crossed from the right, and Liu Yu grabbed a point in the penalty area and shot sideways. In the 69th minute, Zhang Xizhe's low shot from outside the penalty area was confiscated by Buffon falling to the ground, and then Buffon quickly got up and threw the ball to the half of the Chinese team with a strong hand, and it was with the help of this fast attack that the Italian team equalized the score in the 70th minute, this time the long pass counterattack from Buffon, Montolivo got the ball in the middle circle and passed the defenders, dribbled the ball all the way to the top of the arc of the penalty area, and then distributed it to Balotelli on the right, who followed up with a low shot into the far corner, 4:4!

The two sides are back on the same starting line!

The Chinese team was obviously a little blinded, and in the next two minutes, China conceded the ball again - Monterivo won the ball in the middle of the field and hung it in the middle of the penalty area, Balotelli in the middle seemed to pass and shoot the ball to the back point, and Pirlo, who followed up, easily pushed the goal, 5:4, Italy achieved a big reversal, overtook the score, and now the pressure has come to Liu Yu's side.

It is impossible for the current Chinese team to continue to defend, they must give it a go, at least they need to score, Hao Junmin won the ball on the right side of the front field, adjusted slightly, and his left-footed shot was saved by goalkeeper Buffon.

The Chinese team stubbornly equalized in the 71st minute - Zhang Xizhe took a corner kick on the right side to the midpoint, and Liu Yu, who was outflanked in the middle, had no one around him, and he easily put the ball into the lower left corner of the goal, 5-5!

This World Cup final turned into a goal shootout, and this one scored ten goals, which is too much for the fans.
