Chapter 632: Life hangs by a thread

Before Li Liang's words fell, the audience suddenly cheered loudly, and Iran once again pushed the ball to the front of the Chinese team's penalty area!

Iranian captain Shojay rushed into the penalty area under the sandwich of Zhou Zhi and Wu Dong and forced the goal, Wu Dong flew to tackle the ball regardless of his body, the ball bounced high in the penalty area, and the left wingback Jiang Peng jumped up to push the ball out of the penalty area, but did not push the ball far!

Li Liangteng stood up and exclaimed, "Danger! ”

Wu Dong still fell to the ground and did not get up, and Zhou Zhi and other teammates had already rushed back to the penalty area desperately.

I saw the ball fall towards Shojai, who had rushed into the penalty area, and the new Hong Bowen struggled to jump and compete with Shojai, and the ball fell to the feet of Taremi, who frequently threatened the door of the Chinese team in the first half!

Zhou Zhi realized the biggest danger for the first time, and rushed with all his strength to Tai Laimi, who had completely adjusted his position and was about to get up.

Taremi had already made a judgment when the ball was still in the air, and he didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground and volleyed directly with his left foot, and hit an extremely sudden shot before Zhou Zhi!

Li Liang's heart tightened, and Zheng Cheng reacted in time at an astonishing speed to make a save again, but unfortunately this shot was too sudden, and the ball was blocked by Zheng Cheng and still rolled into the net!

Just 32 seconds into the second half, the Iranian team, which had been unable to attack for a long time, took advantage of the mistakes of the Chinese players to finally score a goal and rewrite the score to 1:0.

He Wei was extremely depressed, but he still explained the whole process of scoring the goal very professionally, Xue Yang shook his head and sighed: "Alas! This ball!

In fact, it is clear that the ball can be pushed directly out of the sideline, and in this case, even if the defender gives the opponent a corner, it is a completely acceptable result, why choose such a difficult way to deal with it? ”

At the same time, the two found that Li Liang was still standing motionless like a statue, with an extremely complicated expression.

Of course, Li Liang knows how significant the result of this game is for the Chinese team, and he is not unaware that if he can't score at least one point here, he and his teammates will be farther and farther away from the World Cup in Russia.

The fans of the entire stadium went crazy, and some people even set off huge firecrackers in the stands, and the atmosphere of the home stadium reached its peak in an instant!

Li Liang seemed to have experienced spring, summer, autumn and winter in this short period of time, and all kinds of painful feelings and emotions occupied his entire inner world.

The first half of the game has fully illustrated the problem, the Chinese team did not even hit the goal frame under the strong overall pressure of the opponent.

Conceding a goal at the start of the second half was a sign that the game had turned from "hard" mode to complete "hell" mode.

The referee paused the game and waved for the team doctor to enter, and people found that Wu Dong lying in the penalty area was bleeding profusely.

Replay reality in slow motion, Shojay's spikes hung heavily on Wu Dong's face when he shot the first shot!

Li Hongbo was ordered to replace Wu Dong in the face of danger.

He Wei said helplessly: "It seems that Wu Dong will definitely not be able to hold on to the game anymore, and we see that Lippi is nervously discussing countermeasures with Madanilo."

It's a pity that Wu Dong's desperate defense still couldn't prevent the Iranian team from scoring goals! ”

Xue Yang continued: "Of course, mistakes are an inevitable part of the football field, but in the very difficult situation of the team's unorganized personnel, when everyone tried their best to survive the difficult first half, and the team just completed the adjustment and prepared to exert strength, such an inexplicable mistake can be imagined as a blow to morale." ”

Li Liang suddenly spoke: "This lost ball is indeed a problem when we handled the ball, but it is not anyone's fault.

From the game, we were effectively suppressed by the opponent as a whole.

Football itself is a team sport, and Jiang Peng's header just now was the result, not the reason, otherwise Coach Lippi would definitely replace him at halftime.

I believe that everyone will not give up, there is still time for the game, we still have a chance! ”

He Wei and Xue Yang were very moved, and they both agreed with Li Liang stretching out his hand and giving a thumbs up.

After a brief treatment, Wu Dong was carried off the pitch on a stretcher and went straight into the locker room for treatment, and Lippi had to use up the last substitution in the 49th minute of the game to send in substitute midfielder Li Hongbo.

After conceding the goal, the Chinese team played more actively, and the quality of the attack improved significantly. In the 56th minute, Geng Lin made a free kick in the front, and Hong Bowen stood in front of the ball and prepared to take the penalty.

Before Hong Bowen shot the goal, He Wei and Xue Yang in the comment seat were surprised to find that Li Liang seemed to be trembling all over.

This feeling made Li Liang feel more uncomfortable than killing himself. He could see that the Iranian players were extremely nervous about the Chinese team's set-piece about 26 or 7 meters away from the goal, and if he was on the field at the moment......

The referee blew the whistle, and Hong Bowen's free kick shot directly over the crossbar was slightly higher than the crossbar, and He Wei and Xue Yang both sighed.

Li Liang even held his head with both hands, unable to say anything.

After the Iranian team took the lead, the formation of the Chinese team under pressure was recovered, and the Chinese team launched a continuous offensive.

In the 64th minute, Jiang Peng pressed the assist from the left side and was brought down by Jahanbakhsh in the front, and the referee showed the opponent a yellow card and awarded a free kick again.

Hong Bowen took a free kick diagonally from the left side of the penalty area, and Xu Bao won the nod in front of the ball and rubbed it high over the crossbar.

In the 72nd minute of the game, Iran's coach Queiroz replaced the declining Guchanejad with a powerful striker who plays in the Russian Premier League, Azmoun, in an attempt to strengthen the offensive to contain the rising Chinese team.

In the 78th minute, the Chinese team ushered in the best opportunity of the game, Hong Bowen took a high-quality corner kick on the left side, and under the cover of the players, the central defender Meng Fang found a gap 8 meters in front of the goal and hit the ball with a very difficult look back at the moon to grab the point!

In the huge exclamation of the audience, the ball still flew high above the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line, and He Wei, Xue Yang and Li Liang, who were waiting for him, had already jumped up and sat down disappointed again.

For the remainder of the game, Iran strengthened their defence, and China, whose fitness was declining, was unable to create a threatening attack.

At the end of the game, the Chinese team lost 0:1 to the group leader Iran at the Azadi Sports Center.

In the tsunami-like cheers of the Iranian fans in the audience, He Wei and Xue Yang analyzed the situation faced by the Chinese team in this group with solemn faces.

He Wei said: "After defeating China, the Iranian team continued to hold the top spot with 17 points, South Korea 13 points, Uzbekistan 12 points, Syria 8 points, China 5 points, and Qatar 4 points.

We play Syria, Uzbekistan and Qatar in the final three rounds, and they are also direct opponents for us to qualify or fight for third place in the group and enter the play-offs.

If we win all three of our last three games, we will reach 14 points and have a chance to finish third in the group.

With two wins and one draw, we still have a chance of finishing third in the group, but Uzbekistan must lose all of them and we will be able to beat them on goal difference.

We have to beat Uzbekistan and get at least four points against Syria and Qatar and reach 12 points to level with Uzbekistan to have a chance of a better goal difference. ”

Xue Yang added: "Uzbekistan's last three matches were against Iran, China and South Korea. If they lose all three of their games, they will only have 12 points, and our two wins and one draw will also reach 12 points.

If they get two points from the last three rounds and lose to us, they can reach 14 points, then we have to win all three games to reach 14 points.

Syria now also has 8 points. They played China, Qatar and Iran in the last three rounds.

Qatar, which is currently at the bottom of the group with 4 points, has only 11 points in the last three rounds against South Korea, Syria, and China, even if it wins 2 and draws 1.

We have to play at least two wins, one draw or three wins in a row to have a chance of beating these opponents.

Of course, even if we win three in a row, it will depend on the faces of other teams, especially Uzbekistan, to determine whether we can at least qualify for the play-offs in third place. ”

He Wei finally summed up heavily: "From a realistic point of view, the possibility of us qualifying after losing this game is quite not optimistic.

But just like Li Liang said just now, you must not give up until the last moment.

In the face of Asia's first-class and powerful Iranian team, the Chinese team performed very hard today, although they were defeated, they were still honored.

We hope that in the remaining group stage, the Chinese team can control its own destiny and realize its dream of entering Russia.

Ladies and gentlemen, goodbye. ”
