Chapter 63: Facing the Quasi-Indonesian National Team!

After leaving Singapore, two days later, we finally arrived at our destination - Batavia, the capital of the Dutch East Indies, and Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia.

With the help of the seasickness elixir provided by Lu Zhuhu, the players finally suffered a lot less.

Jakarta, also known as Coconut City, is the largest city in Southeast Asia, located on the northwest coast of Java Island. The majority of the population is still indigenous Javanese in Indonesia, with a small number of Dutch colonists as rulers. Nevertheless, it is still the Chinese who can make a lot of money here, and most of the wealth is concentrated in the hands of the hardworking and thrifty Chinese, which has attracted the eyes of the indigenous people from the beginning.

This is a tropical region, hot and rainy all year round, which is not suitable for the Chinese with four distinct seasons, which is a certain factor in the defeat of Indonesia when the national football team went to the World Cup for the first time. (Well, it's all about the feet...... Stinking...... )

However, Li Huitang, Dai Linjing and others, who have played in the Jakarta team, are much more familiar.

In Jakarta, the Chinese team contacted the opponent of the Dutch East Indies Interport Champion, the Batavia selection team. Although it is not a serious Indonesian national team, there are many players who have represented the Netherlands in the last Far Eastern Games two years ago, that is, Zhang Xianyuan's former national team teammates, they once slaughtered Japan under the leadership of Zhang Xianyuan, and the strength is basically a Zhang Xianyuan's Indonesian national team, which is not bad.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the national football team played against the Batavia team at the Gambir Stadium, because there are not many Chinese in Batavia, and the audience was only nearly 10,000 people, but they were still warmly welcomed, and the enthusiasm was no less than that of the Singapore fans.

Since the birth of the Chinese team to today, no matter how bad the game is, the number of fans has remained high, and there are supporters everywhere they go, which can be regarded as a strange scenery in the history of world football.

The starting lineup of the Chinese team is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Huang Jiliang

Defenders: Li Tiansheng, Tan Jiangbai

Midfielders: Liang Rongzhao, Xu Yahui, Chen Zhenhe

Forwards: Lu Zhuhu, Sun Jinshun, Feng Jingxiang, Li Huitang, Ye Beihua

Since Dai Lin had his family's business to take care of when he arrived in Batavia, he hurriedly left the team to deal with personal matters after landing on the shore. The front line gave up a starting position and was topped by Lu Zhuhu.

……

After the start of the game, although the strength of the Chinese team was higher than that of the opponent, the two-day strong wind and waves at sea still affected the state, and the boat was tired and tired.

The two sides battled for more than 25 minutes, attacking each other, but neither could threaten the opposing goalkeeper. It's like in the tropics, and the high heat makes people's feet soft.

Lu Zhuhu was not spared, when he played in the World Cup in Brazil, although it was also hot, he could comfort himself with "the season is winter", this Indonesia is really hot, no wonder Chen Zhenhe has been away from the local area for more than ten years, and his skin is still so dark......

Because of the position of Dai Linjing, sometimes he becomes a center forward, and he is not used to playing, and he rarely has a wonderful pass in the midfield position in the first few games.

Can't rely on the surprise soldier Lu Poyu, it's not a way to go on like this, the physical strength of everyone in the Chinese team will only be worse in the second half, and the balance will be tilted to the opposite side!

At this time, what to do is, naturally-

Pass the ball to the captain!

In the 27th minute, Li Huitang took the ball to attract the opponent's many defenders to block, just when the audience thought that this ball was definitely going to be broken, Li Huitang suddenly started, broke through like electricity, squeezed out of the cracks, and crossed the goal without thinking, his good partner Feng Jingxiang rushed to the horse and volleyed to break the net, and the Chinese team took the lead in breaking the deadlock!

1 to 0!

"It's not appropriate to fight, it's a quick battle!" Li Huitang said in a deep voice to his teammates, since Singapore broke the multi-day ball drought, there are faint signs of recovery in his unparalleled spirit.

However, the counterattack of the Batavia team after losing the goal was also very fierce, and after falling behind, they attacked and defended, forcing the Chinese team to score another goal to kill the game, but could not win.

On the contrary, it was the Batavia team that seized the opportunity - two minutes before the end of the first half, Batavia attacked the goal and raised a high ball, Tan Jiangbai jumped up to clear the ball and inadvertently handballed, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty of 12 yards.

Batavia's captain, the right-back Indonesian Lian Gala personally handled it, and the Chinese team's No. 2 goalkeeper Huang Jiliang judged the wrong direction and was tied 1-1 by the opponent.

The failure to maintain the lead before half-time was a bit of a disappointment. Especially at halftime, Lian Gara joked to Zhang Xianyuan on the bench of the Chinese team: "Look at it, tell you not to go back to China to play football - you can't play yet!" If you stay with us, you'll be kicked for the penalty! Zhang Xianyuan could only smile bitterly.

However, this is also a great wonder in China, the more the country is in crisis, the more Yan and Huang descendants scattered all over the world, the more people emerge for her to destroy their families and relieve the difficulties.

What's more, it's just a few games!

At halftime, there was bad news - Chen Zhenhe had a headache, and this time it seemed that he could not hold on any longer, and Zhang Xianyuan replaced his position, and Zhuo Shijin also replaced the veteran iron-legged Sun Jinshun, who was not physically strong.

After the start of the second half, it was the Batavia team that performed better and better, and the offensive coordination was quite fluid.

Captain Lian Gara not only defended and intercepted in place, but also often pressed assists, and threatened the Chinese team's penalty area again and again, as if he wanted to show his national team teammate Zhang Xianyuan on the opposite side that he had chosen the wrong team.

Fortunately, the No. 2 goalkeeper of the Chinese team, Huang Jiliang, is indeed very strong, worthy of the level of Asia's top goalkeepers.

After the backfield stabilized, it was finally possible to organize an effective offensive again. This time, Lu Zhuhu, who was silent in the half, won the ball in front of the court, broke through all the way, passed five levels and cut six generals, and then his cross was just right, Feng Jingxiang caught up with the burst - Batavia goalkeeper Aberduli struggled to save! But he didn't want to, Li Huitang, who was ambushed on the side at this time, directly met him and shot into the net!

Two to one!

The Chinese team took the lead again. After that, the initiative on the field was basically in the hands of the Chinese team, but Li Huitang and Lu Zhuhu lost the opportunity successively, and the score did not change until the end of the game, and the Chinese team defeated the opponent by a small score.

Although the score is not satisfactory, it is good to maintain the momentum of the winning streak. Even Batavia captain Lian Gara admitted to Zhang Xianyuan after the game that the Chinese team was the stronger side and hoped that they could achieve a good result in Berlin......

For Lu Zhuhu, winning is to ensure that at least this game can also get a "B" level treasure chest, which is not a trip in vain, a bit rushed.

After all, the "C" level treasure chest obtained in the tie game has been clearly stated to be only at the level of "consolation...... (Don't say "thank you for the game" and "come back next time"...... )

As far as his own performance is concerned, Lu Zhuhu feels more and more that under the "five forwards" system at this time, there are too many people in the front court who want to score, which is not conducive to the play of his own characteristics, but if he wants to transform the outdated playing system of the Chinese team, what kind of reason should he find to communicate with the bigwigs of the national team......

Now there is no head coach in the national team who dares not to recruit Zheng Zhi, the core of the national team and the strongest midfielder, in order to let him play No. 10 and the core......
