Chapter 591: Quarterfinals
Back at the hotel, the members of the national Olympic team celebrated their group qualification and then watched the first gold medal match of the London Olympics: the women's 10m air rifle final.
In the end, the 23-year-old Chinese girl Yi Siling won the first gold medal with a score of 502.9 rings over Poland's Pogacka's 502.2 rings, and another Chinese player, Yu Dan, won the bronze medal.
The Chinese won two of the three medals, of which Yi Siling's was the first gold medal at the London Olympics.
When the two five-star red flags were raised in the "British Royal Artillery Barracks" at the competition venue, and when the majestic "March of the Volunteers" sounded on the field, Lu Wenbin secretly clenched his fists: he also wanted to help China win a gold medal in the Olympic arena.
Then, after a night's rest in Coventry, the next day the Chinese team returned to London.
The Chinese team played in the third round at Wembley Stadium in London, and the opponent was Gabon.
The men's football schedule at the Olympics is very dense, almost every three days.
In the case that they have already qualified in advance, the Chinese team will naturally not go out to fight with the Gabon team anymore, and they will have to save enough energy to play the quarterfinals.
Therefore, in the third round of Group B VS Gabon match held at Wembley Stadium in London on August 1, the Chinese team rotated most of the lineup, and even the goalkeeper was replaced by Wu Sihuo.
Of course, Lu Wenbin, the Dinghai God Needle, still continues to start.
As long as Lu Wenbin is there, the Gabon team will not dare to attack in a big way. Even if the offense, with Lu Wenbin's auxiliary defense, the success rate of the Gabon team will be greatly reduced.
After 90 minutes, the score on the big screen was 2-1, and the Chinese team won by one goal.
Although Gabon scored a goal by taking advantage of the lack of strength of the Chinese team's substitute lineup, it was finally defeated by Lu Wenbin's brace.
Lu Wenbin's existence made many opponents feel helpless.
China advanced to the quarterfinals with nine points from three wins and nine points, while Mexico also advanced to the quarterfinals with a last-round win over Switzerland, while Switzerland and Gabon went home together.
After the third round of the group stage, Lu Wenbin also received the system reward for qualifying from the group: 1 million experience + 10 skill points.
Coupled with the single-game experience gained in each game, Lu Wenbin's experience has risen to level 19 19.353 million/20 million, and there is still 650,000 to upgrade.
As long as you score and win in the quarter-finals, you can be promoted again.
As for the 10 skill points obtained from the group's qualifying task now, Lu Wenbin naturally did not hesitate to add them to the skill of position selection, so that his position selection attribute reached 12 points.
When all the matches in the group stage are over, all the teams that advance to the quarterfinals will be produced, namely the United Kingdom and Senegal in Group A, China and Mexico in Group B, Brazil and Egypt in Group C, and Japan and Honduras in Group D.
The opponent of the Chinese Olympic team in the quarterfinals also came out: Senegal.
This is an African country, and Senegal is still good to beat Uruguay in Group A and qualify with England.
However, compared with the host England in the quarterfinals, Brazil, Mexico, etc., Senegal's strength is still much worse, and the Chinese team with Lu Wenbin has a good chance of winning.
The semi-finals are beckoning to the Chinese team.
Most of the media from various countries are also optimistic about the Chinese team, after all, at the U23 level, Lu Wenbin alone is enough to beat a team.
Senegal are not a strong team either, but they are lucky enough to beat Uruguay to reach the quarter-finals.
Just like in the last game, the Chinese team rotated most of the main players, but Lu Wenbin scored a brace alone to help the Chinese team defeat Gabon with a score of 2-1.
This is one of the reasons why the Chinese team is listed as the favorite to win the championship.
However, on August 4, 2012, at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, when the 1/4 finals between the Chinese team and Senegal officially began, Senegal did not shrink in the backfield to fight with the Chinese team to defend, but took the initiative to attack from the beginning of the game.
This caught the Chinese team off guard.
The media said that the strength of the Chinese team was stronger than Senegal, and everyone thought that Senegal would shrink its defense and counterattack, even Gao Hongbo thought so!
I didn't expect Senegal to take the initiative to attack.
Aren't they afraid of Lu Wenbin and the Chinese team's counterattack?
Fortunately, the tactics of the Chinese team itself are 4231 defensive counterattacks, based on defense and then counterattacking, and the beginning of the game will not be pressed on the attack, and will first stabilize the defensive formation to see the situation.
Senegal's opening three boards went down, with three shots on goal in ten minutes, but only one on target under the Chinese team's defense, and the angle of power was not good, which was easily confiscated by Zeng Cheng.
On the contrary, the Chinese team played a very threatening attack in the 6th minute, but it was a pity that Wu Lei wasted Lu Wenbin's through pass, and the final single shot slid out of the goal.
After withstanding Senegal's opening attack, the Chinese team stabilized its position, and everyone gradually found that Senegal just looked aggressive, but in fact, its strength was much worse than Mexico encountered by the Chinese team, and at most it was comparable to the Swiss team.
Moreover, the discipline of African players is worse than that of the Swiss team, and many passes are good balls, but Senegalese players will choose to force a breakthrough by themselves, and as a result, they are delayed by a steal or unable to break through.
After discovering that Senegal was just a hypocrisy, the Chinese team also increased the number of counterattacks on the basis of holding the defensive line.
In the 17th minute, Senegal's attack was cut off again.
This time, it was the central defender Dewey who cut off the ball from the opposing striker Konate and passed it to Zhang Linpeng, who launched the attack.
Lu Wenbin immediately turned around and rushed towards the opponent's half the moment Zhang Linpeng successfully broke the ball, and took the lead in approaching the opponent's guard line than Wu Lei.
Then, at the moment when Lu Wenbin was about to be offside, Cao Yunding, who was passing by a person on the side after receiving Zhang Linpeng's pass, even divided the ball, crossed at a 45-degree angle, Lu Wenbin successfully countered offside and received the ball behind the Senegalese back line.
However, this ball Lu Wenbin did not stop well, it was a little bigger, Senegal goalkeeper Mane immediately attacked when he saw this, ready to rush out of the forbidden area to destroy the ball.
But Lu Wenbin's speed is too scary.
If Lu Wenbin is asked to participate in the sprint competition, he will be able to run within 10 seconds, which is definitely unique and unbeatable in football.
Although Mane knew that Lu Wenbin was fast, he still did not have enough expectations for Lu Wenbin's speed in the fast-paced game.
Lu Wenbin not only started at full speed to shake off the chasing soldiers behind him, but also grabbed a Marseille slalom before the goalkeeper to pass Mane.
Mane, who rushed out of the forbidden area and couldn't save the ball with his hands, could only watch Lu Wenbin pass him and then hit the empty goal.
Lu Wenbin opened the scoring for China in a 17th-minute counter-attack, China 1-0 Senegal.
