Chapter 66: Two Goals
In the life-and-death battle between the Dragon Country team and the Uzbekistan team, Shen Feng scored a goal in the fourth minute of the opening game and made a fantastic start.
However, the comparison of the game has just begun, and there are still considerable variables about the lead of one goal and the least safe score, and what the final result of the game will be.
The game continues.
After the restart, the Uzbekistan team did not concede a goal in less than five minutes of the opening game, and became cringe and conservative, still sticking to the tactics they had formulated before the game and attacking boldly.
Before this game, although the Uzbekistan team was 4 points ahead of the Dragon team and firmly held the initiative to advance, the tactics formulated for this game were not conservative, and they had to strive for three points away from home.
You must know that in the first leg of the battle between the two teams, Uzbekistan cleanly defeated the Dragon Team 2:0 at home.
Although the team has changed a lot after the change of head coach, the team has only achieved one draw and three losses in the four rounds before the change of coach, and after the change of coach, there are two wins, one draw and one loss in the four rounds, and the record changes are very different.
However, in the eyes of the Uzbek team, the Dragon Country team is still the Dragon Country team that once lost to them.
It is this kind of mental contempt that made the Uzbekistan team lose face in this game, and also made the promotion situation of Group A a shocking reversal.
One goal behind, the mentality of the Uzbekistan team has not changed much, they have long expected that the Dragon Country team will use the tactics of grabbing the start in this game, after all, the Dragon Country team sitting at home, this game must be won, the sooner the goal is scored, the better it is for the Dragon Country team!
After the restart, the Uzbekistan team was still unhurried and tested the defense of the Dragon Nation team at its own pace.
On the side of the Dragon Country, they are united and leave nothing for the Uzbek team to take advantage of.
The two sides went back and forth for a few rounds, and when the game entered the tenth minute, the situation changed abruptly.
After defusing another Uzbekistan team's offensive attempt, the backfield player of the Dragon Country team handed the ball to Zhang Xizhe in the midfield.
Zhang Xizhe is regarded as Zheng Zhi's successor in this lineup of the Dragon Country team, and the core of the midfield of the next Dragon Country team.
After Lippi took over as the head coach of the Dragon Country team, Zhang Xizhe was the main force in the midfield of the Dragon Country team, and he has started many games in a row.
He also did not live up to Lippi's trust, he was very proactive on the field, combed the midfield of the Dragon Country team in an orderly manner, and was often able to give a flash of inspiration to his teammates on the front line to send a very threatening through ball, but unfortunately before that, the forward players of the Dragon Country team were not very good and wasted his magic many times.
In addition, he has a good long-range shooting skill and can pose a direct threat to the opponent's goal.
This time, after getting the ball near the center circle, Zhang Xizhe took two steps forward, and suddenly saw a gap in the Uzbekistan team's defensive line, and without thinking, he pushed the ball directly to the defensive hinterland of the Uzbekistan team.
If you want to say what is the biggest difference between the current Dragon Country team and the previous Dragon Country team, then it must be Shen Feng, the sharp knife on the front line!
In this starting lineup of the Dragon Country team, Shen Feng is not only the youngest player, but also the player with the least number of appearances on behalf of the Dragon Country team, and he is a complete pink newcomer.
However, it is precisely because of him, a pink newcomer, that the attack power of the forward line of the Dragon Country team has increased by multiple times compared with the past!
These improvements are mainly reflected in Shen Feng's overall view and speed that he is more than one step ahead of other strikers in the Dragon Country team.
The superior overall situation can allow Shen Feng to keenly find loopholes in the opponent's defense line and take advantage of them; And the super fast speed can make his ideas come true.
In the previous game, it was not that the Dragon Country team could not create opportunities to shoot, but that the ability of the forward players was limited, and the opportunities were created, but they were unable to grasp them, so they could only watch them pass, which was suffocating.
Just like this time, before Zhang Xizhe passed this through ball, the position choice of the forward trident of the Dragon Country team was like this: Yu Han Dynasty took the initiative to retreat, and after a little delay, Wu Lei was on the left and Shen Feng was on the right.
The vacancy in the Uzbekistan team's defense line was created precisely because of the left and right restraints of Wu Lei and Shen Feng.
However, after creating a gap, Wu Lei's next choice was to bury his head and continue to insert to the left, wanting to look for opportunities on the side.
However, Shen Feng was keenly aware of the vacancy behind him, and in the high-speed running, he suddenly made a sharp stop and turned around, ran to the vacancy in the middle of the Uzbekistan team's defensive line, and used this to get rid of the defenders around him.
As soon as Shen Feng ran into the vacancy, Zhang Xizhe's pass came, Shen Feng took the lead, and there was an open field all around, within a radius of ten meters, there were no defenders of the Uzbekistan team, and the position where he received the ball was only five or six meters away from the Uzbekistan team's penalty area, and it had already entered his range.
Shen Feng did not immediately raise his foot to shoot, but took two steps forward and entered the Uzbekistan penalty area.
Shen Feng's current long-range shooting technical attribute value, although there are already 72 points, in the league, he has completed many beautiful long-range shots, but, according to the truth, the closer to the goal, the higher the success rate of the shot.
Shen Feng's shooting technique attribute value has reached 75 points.
Entering the Uzbekistan team's penalty area and shooting again is no longer in the category of long-range shots.
After taking the ball into the Uzbekistan team's penalty area, Shen Feng began to adjust his pace and prepare to shoot, and at this moment, the defenders of the Uzbekistan team, the closest one, were still five meters away, but it was the goalkeeper of the Uzbekistan team, who attacked in advance, and put on a posture four or five meters in front of Shen Feng, ready to save.
Shen Feng made a shooting feint and deceived the goalkeeper of the Uzbekistan team, making his body center of gravity fall to the right, but Shen Feng deftly shook his ankle and buckled the ball to the left.
Shen Feng used his left foot, which he was not very good at, to complete the final push, and the ball rolled steadily over the goal line of the Uzbekistan team.
2:0!
In just ten minutes of the opening game, Shen Feng scored twice to help the Dragon Country team further expand its lead!
Such a wonderful scene, like a dream, many elderly Dragon Country fans, racking their brains to search for memories, can't remember the last time the Dragon Country team played so heartily in such an important game, when was it!
More likely, it has never been!
