Chapter 468: "Asia's First-Class"

When their own team was only one goal down, the vast majority of Saudi Arabian players were still confident of an equaliser. Especially not long after the debut of the "Saudi Arabian Actor", the ace player of the Chinese team, Feng Quan, received a yellow card, and even gave them the illusion that they could easily overtake the score.

However, when Yu Hanchao helped the Chinese team extend the score advantage to two goals, more than half of the Saudi Arabian players on the pitch immediately lost the confidence of equalizing. In particular, Disr Sahrani, who relied on his "acting skills" to establish himself in the Saudi Arabian national team, immediately fell into a slump after being cracked by the wind.

In the 41st minute of the first half of the game, after Feng Quan received Feng Xiaoting's pass on the right side of the backfield, it was almost like a "dribbling around the pile" exercise, and easily broke through Disr Sahrani's defense.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Quan collided with Huang Wenbo and Sun Ke twice and then shot directly at a distance of nearly 30 meters from the opponent's goal.

The next moment, the ball shot by the wind was like a cannonball, and with the whirring sound of the wind hit the inside of the left goal post of the Saudi Arabian team, and then bounced into the goal.

Until the ball hit the back of the goal and the net fell into the goal, the Saudi Arabian goalkeeper failed to make any save.

After Feng Quan scored the third goal for the Chinese team, Fu Bo asked the players on the field to pay attention to controlling the rhythm on the field. After all, a three-goal lead is almost certain to win the game.

Therefore, it is better to be able to pay the smallest possible "price" to win this game.

At the same time, due to Disr Sahrani's "actor-level acting", it is difficult to pose too much of a threat to Fengquan.

López Carlo substituted him shortly after the start of the second half.

In fact, even if Disr Sahrani can no longer rely on his "realistic acting" to make Feng Quan eat cards as he did at the beginning of his debut, Feng Quan's performance in the game will still be somewhat discounted in order to avoid being framed by him.

Therefore, even if Disr Sahrani can't really cut off the ball or get him booked again and sent off, López Carlo's decision to replace him is not a wise choice.

Sure enough, just after Disr Sahrani went off the field, Feng Quan's "back row plugging" once again returned to the unresolved state at the beginning of the opening game.

In the 9th minute of the second half, Feng Quan dribbled along the right sideline to a position about 6 meters away from the bottom line, and sent a fast cross to the position in front of the goal.

Yang Xu, who is good at heading and grabbing points, was under the bag of the opponent's two central defenders, and reluctantly swung the ball to the back of the goal.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Lin, who had been lying in ambush near the goal area, rushed the ball into the top left corner of the goal before the goalkeeper could pounce.

Since Atletico Madrid had reached a verbal agreement with the Chinese team before the start of this game, once the Chinese team's lead was enough to ensure victory, they would replace Feng Quan in advance, so that he could save more energy for the next La Liga match.

So, shortly after Gao Lin scored the fourth goal of the Chinese team, Fu Bo replaced Liu Jianye, who can play a cameo role at right full-back, for Feng Quan.

Although in terms of statistics, Gao Lin, who scored two goals, was the most brilliant player in this game for the Chinese team. But the discerning people all know that the four goals scored by the Chinese team so far are all the result of Feng Quan tearing apart the opponent's defense on the right side.

Therefore, when Feng Quan was substituted, the more than 40,000 fans in the Suzaku Stadium all gave him warm applause to thank him for his great contribution to the Chinese team.

Although Feng Quan's departure weakened the offensive threat of the Chinese team, the Saudi Arabian team, which had fallen behind by a large margin, had already lost confidence in this game.

In the end, with Feng Quan's wonderful performance, the Chinese team playing at home defeated the visiting Saudi Arabian team with a score of 4-0.

Although the Asian Cup qualifiers will not be completed until March next year, the Chinese team, which has 10 points after five rounds of qualifiers (Iraq, which is temporarily ranked third, has 6 points), has already won the right to participate in the 2015 Asian Cup in advance.

…………

The strength of the Saudi Arabian team, although in the Asian range where the overall level is low, it is difficult to squeeze into the top 5 ranks. However, the Chinese team, which has long been reduced to the second-rate level in Asia, was able to achieve a four-goal victory in the official competition with the Saudi Arabian team, which still caused quite a stir in the entire Asian football world.

In the first two rounds of the Asian Cup preliminaries held at the beginning of this year, they were first beaten by the Saudi Arabian team away from home, and then relied on a balloon to defeat the war-torn Iraqi team with great difficulty.

However, just over half a year later, at the beginning of the year, the Chinese team, which had gradually "become the third rate in Asia", in the eyes of the Japanese and South Korean media, not only defeated the Saudi Arabian team with a score of 4-0, but also took the absolute initiative in the game.

Therefore, the media of Japan and South Korea not only immediately denied the previously proposed "Chinese third-rate" round, but even believed that as long as Feng Quan can avoid the invasion of major injuries, then in the 2018 World Cup Asian qualifiers that will start two years later, the Chinese team will inevitably become a tiger in the way for Japan and South Korea to qualify.

In addition, the first-class Asian teams such as Iran, Australia, and Uzbekistan, which have gradually lost their attention to the Chinese team, have to pay enough attention to the Chinese team with the world-class star Feng Quan after the Chinese team defeated the Saudi Arabian team by 4 goals. After all, even if they want to beat Saudi Arabia by four goals, they need the favor of the goddess of fate to do so.

Although the sports media of Asian powers such as Japan, South Korea, Iran and Australia believe that in the future Asian competitions, the Chinese team is likely to cause a lot of trouble for their own country's football team. But in fact, what they really recognize is not the Chinese team itself, but Feng Quan, who directly decided the outcome of the game in the past two games.

In their opinion, it will be very difficult for any Asian team to defeat the Chinese team with full wind. After all, the defensive ability of the Chinese team is quite reasonable in Asia, and the real reason why it has missed the top 10 matches in Asia for 12 consecutive years is also due to the "weakness of the forward" that has plagued the team for many years.

Now, the Chinese team, which has a full wind, has not only basically broken the problem of "weak forward", but also scored 9 goals in the last two games. From the beginning of this year to the five official games before Feng Quan joined, the Chinese team only scored 9 goals in total.

Therefore, there is still a certain basis for the view of the media of Japan, South Korea, Iran, Australia and other countries that "the wind will bring the Chinese team back to the top in Asia".
