Chapter 627: This time, I don't hesitate anymore
After FIFA issued the latest rule changes, the ball can be kicked in any direction when kicking off in the centre circle, so many teams have switched to one-man tee-off.
After repeatedly reminding the Chinese team, the referee signaled that the game could start.
Kim Shin-wook anxiously ran to the center circle, but Ji Chengyong, the most experienced international player in the South Korean team, strode forward and pushed Kim Shin-wook into the middle circle, and he passed the ball directly to the teenager Hwang Hee-chan.
The Chinese players have just returned to the field and they are now fully focused and ready for everything!
Li Liang and the rest of his team-mates all retreated to half-time, with less than two minutes to go, and no matter how the game ended, as long as the score remained the same, all the hard work of the night would have been achieved.
The emotions of the audience have boiled to the peak, regardless of men, women and children, no matter where they come from and what dialect they speak, everyone sang the national anthem in unison.
In the face of this battle that has shown the dawn of victory, more than 50,000 fans in the stadium have taken out all their strength to cheer for the Chinese team.
Under the chorus of the whole audience, the international players seemed to regain their infinite strength, and the South Korean players looked extremely nervous and impatient.
Huang Xican ran wildly on the left side with the ball, and soon lost the ball under the sandwich of Zhao Linpeng and Hao Jingmin.
After receiving the ball, Zhou Zhi looked up and found that the South Korean team had all passed the half, and only Kwon Chun-tae stayed near the halfway line!
Zhou Zhi, who is also experienced in a hundred battles, first thought of moving the ball to a safe place as much as possible, he saw that Li Liang was desperately trying to get rid of the entanglement of the Koreans, but the distance was too far, Zhou Zhi still cautiously played the ball to Zhao Linpeng.
Jin Zhenshu frantically flew over, and Zhao Linpeng grabbed the ball back to Zhou Zhi before him.
Zhou Zhi turned to protect the ball and suddenly found that he had fallen into a siege, and he immediately dismissed the idea of returning the ball to Zheng Cheng, because he believed that the already red-eyed South Korean would definitely be in the penalty area ready to rob his return pass.
Zhou Zhi gritted his teeth and tossed and turned, and controlled the ball at his feet!
Zhao Linpeng and Hao Jingmin immediately rushed towards Zhou Zhi, and Li Liang and other teammates also rushed over.
Liu Tie, a former international coach on the home team's bench, was stunned, Liu Tie was the representative of the hope team that once hailed the hope of Chinese football in Brazil, and the main defender of the national Olympic team that lost at the feet of the South Koreans 17 years ago.
Watching Zhou Zhi stumble and try to protect the ball under the attack of the tall Ji Chengyong, Ji Dongyuan and Gu Zizhe, Liu Tie burst into tears, and he seemed to see the 19-year-old right-back of the National Olympic team 17 years ago.
Liu Tie roared angrily: "Come on, Great Wisdom!" β
Zhou Zhi fell to the ground and swept the ball out of the bottom line under the fierce confrontation, and stubbornly resolved the crisis for the Chinese team.
In the audience "Zhou Zhi! In the deafening cheers and applause of "Zhou Zhi", Lippi gave a thumbs up to Zhou Zhi, who got up quickly, Madanilo shook his fist and roared, and Liu Tie applauded desperately to cheer for everyone.
Lippi turned to Li Liang and yelled directly, his voice was already hoarse: "Li, you go back and get the ball!" β
Under this kind of high pressure, the 37-year-old Zhou Zhi can't be asked too much, and the team needs Li Liang to stand up in the most difficult time.
He Wei shouted excitedly: "Zhou Zhi protected the ball under the two strikes of the Korean team, and finally kicked the ball out of bounds without conceding the ball."
The 37-year-old veteran has given everything for the team today! β
Ji Chengyong personally went to send a throw-in, he took a few steps back and vigorously threw a "grenade" to the front court-
Li Liang adjusted his pace and rushed to the landing point of the ball, which was thrown by Ji Chengyong with all his strength for more than 30 meters!
The ball flew to the front of the penalty area, Kim Shinyu had already taken the lead, and he stubbornly looked up at Feng Xiao to observe the ball and prepare to ferry directly to the many South Korean players in the penalty area-
Kim Shin Wook is 1.96 meters tall and has a huge weight, but he has quite good flexibility, and he is a rare strong high school forward with feet in Asian football.
However, the giant is not without weaknesses, compared to his outstanding height, Kim Shinyu's explosive power and bounce power can only be regarded as inferior. Therefore, when competing for the header, he pays more attention to grabbing the position first, after all, such a large volume is a natural huge advantage.
Feng Xiao tried his best to shake Jin Xinyu, and in the instinct of the guard, he decided to take a risk, stretched out his hands, and prepared to fall directly!
Feng Xiao has always been known for his calmness in the backline, but now he can no longer remain calm at this life-and-death moment!
Even if this is the front of the penalty area, even if his foul will definitely give the South Koreans an excellent free kick opportunity, but Feng Xiao understands that he is not in the penalty area, only relying on Meng Fang and Jiang Peng, it is difficult for them to compete for the second landing point, as long as this ball is ferried by Jin Xinyu into the penalty area, the South Koreans are likely to equalize the score-
Feng Xiao has decided to fulfill his promise, even if he dies here, he will never let Jin Xinyu put the ball into the penalty area!
When he was already pulling Kim Shin Wook's jersey, he suddenly heard clearly in the loud noise: "I'm coming!" β
At the moment when he had fallen into the boundless darkness, this voice brought great power, making Feng Xiao believe that the recruit of the national team who shouted this to himself, this rookie, this incredible guy who only played professional football at the age of 25, this Li Liang who was like the boss on the field in today's game-
This guy must have come to save today's Chinese team-
Li Liang's roar made Feng Xiao let go of his hands that were about to hold Jin Xinyu, and the iron-blooded central defender was shocked to see a red figure rising from his side-
This picture of teammate Feng Xiao and the players around him, whether it is a Chinese player or a South Korean player, is too shocking!
Li Liang, who is 16 centimeters taller than Kim Shin-wook, sprinted at full speed and jumped, and in an instant, he and Kim Shin-wook hit the ball at the same time!
This red flame rose rapidly again, and once again slammed into everyone's sight with an unstoppable momentum, leaving everyone who saw it stunned-
Li Liang seemed to be flying, at least Feng Xiao, who was squeezed by his opponent and couldn't jump, and in the eyes of Jin Xinyu, Li Liang really flew!
With a "bang", the exclamations and screams of the audience reached their peak!
Time had stood still, and the players on both sides who were running or grabbing positions fiercely seemed to stop at this moment.
The mother who was extremely nervous in the stands even stood on tiptoe, and Dad and Xiaoyu shouted at the same time-
Old Man Zhang's time seemed to go backwards, he returned to the state of directing the game on the sidelines, his hands clenched into fists and staring nervously-
Li Liang's friends, Bald Qiang, Dongzi, Winter Melon, Da Nan, Ding Ding and Chu Xianyun, as well as Lao Yu and Heizi, all shouted hoarsely-
Lippi even crossed the command area, stepped into the sideline with one foot and nervously looked forward -
The ball is headed out of the box!
Jiang Yuning grabbed Xu Rongjun and kicked the ball to the front court directly, and the hearts of the audience finally fell, but people immediately became nervous again!
Li Liang suddenly lost his balance as if he had lost consciousness, and after completing the header clearance first, he fell face down and fell to the ground!
South Korea's goalkeeper Kwon Soon-tae ran desperately towards the ball like a dragging centre-back, and he stopped the ball with difficulty and immediately turned around and drove the ball forward again.
The players on both sides paid attention to the ball, Feng Xiao judged accurately and pressed Chi Dongyuan to hit the ball, Jin Xinyu successfully grabbed the landing point this time, and successfully returned the ball to Ji Chengyong.
Ji Chengyong has already rushed to his brain, and the only consciousness in his brain is that the game has entered the countdown stage!
The captain of the South Korean team shot directly from the goal 40 meters away, the part of the ball was eaten very accurately, and the force was amazingly sufficient, and the ball flew towards the goal of the Chinese team like a cannonball!
ββββββββββ
Li Liang felt his head hit hard.
Leaning over the turf, I slowly regained consciousness.
Where is this?
He vaguely remembered that he was in the T big in Haicheng, right?
I seem to be competing with a few old ball ruffians named Dongzi, as well as Da Kui and Lao Jiao who have a particularly bad ball style, right?
By the way, I seem to have grabbed a point with this ball just now, did you hit it?!
Li Liang felt as if his hearing had recovered before his vision, and there were amazing shouts around him......
Wait, it's French, that's right, it's French!
There is also louder Spanish, so you can hear it yourself!
He suddenly heard someone yelling into his ear in French: "Lee, don't move, you need treatment, Anthony will be here soon!" β
Li Liang got up and replied loudly: "No way, Killian, I'm okay without treatment!" β
He opened his eyes and suddenly found himself in a strange and familiar stadium, almost half of the stands were white!
His eyes widened to see his Monaco teammates, dressed in red and white uniforms like him, anxiously surrounding him, with Mbappe nervously supporting him.
He saw captain Falcao arguing fiercely with Sergio Ramos, dressed in purple, and saw the referee separating the two sides with a blank face and then showing a yellow card to the thunderous Ramos!
He saw Ronaldo, who was also dressed in purple, striding over and stretching out his hand to him: "Li, are you okay?"
After touching Ronaldo's hand, he took the ball handed over by Fabinho.
Li Liang froze!
His hair and sweat stood on end, like a stream of electricity flowing through his body, and his whole body was numb and trembling slightly.
He saw the familiar ...... Dragon pattern!
It's the ball I'm all too familiar with β Final Cardiff 2017!!
The louder shout once again plunged Li Liang into darkness, he seemed to see the embarrassment flash, and before he could say anything, he heard a huge roar accompanied by exclamations and screams: "Don't let it go!" He's not offsideβ"
This time he was sure that it was his native language, Chinese!
Li Liang opened his eyes again, staggered and struggled to get up from the turf, and immediately heard the roars of Lippi, Madanillo and Gaudino from the sidelines: "Turn back!" Back! β
He straightened up with a splitting headache, and felt a blow to his head after hitting the ball in the head.
He heard Zheng Cheng in front of him, Meng Fang on the side, Jiang Peng in the distance, and Zhou Zhi, Feng Xiao and other teammates behind him all shouting desperately: "Liangzi turn back!" β
He vaguely heard his mother and father and Xiaoyu, and heard the roars of Kuroko, Ding Ding, winter melon and the big man: "Turn back!" β
Li Liang turned around, and an unusually fierce momentum rushed towards him, and his pupils suddenly dilated-
He saw Huang Xican, dressed in white, striding towards him under the pursuit of several Chinese team members!
He didn't know how all this happened, he only remembered that he had just fallen in the penalty area, and he only remembered that when he opened his eyes, he saw that only Zheng Cheng was left behind him and between the goal!
He is the last defender in front of goalkeeper Zheng Cheng?!
Huang Xican has fully picked up, and Feng Xiao, the nearest Feng Xiao behind him, is desperately struggling to narrow the distance between him and the Koreans, Feng Xiao stretched out his hand instead of dragging the Koreans down, but he fell to the ground because he lost his balance!
Huang Xichan has completely formed a single knife, and Li Liang, who was injured and fell to the ground in the competition with Kim Shin-wook for the header before, suddenly stood up to make him a little surprised, but Li Liang, who was standing in place with confidence, could not stop himself who had accelerated to the top.
As the saying goes, the soft are afraid of the hard, the hard are afraid of the stunned, and the stunned are afraid of dying!
The 21-year-old Huang Xican has already made a name for himself in the Austrian Red Bull Salzburg team, he is a typical type of death, the instinct of the shooter at the moment, let him become more and more calm in the last life-and-death attack of the whole game, even if the blood pressure is high and the pulse rises sharply, he is still soberly observing Li Liang in front of him.
Huang Xican decided to use the easiest way to break through the opponent, he directly chose to use his speed to the left side of Li Liang, that is, the right side of his own face, to force a breakthrough, at the expense of part of the shooting angle in exchange for the opportunity to break through Li Liang and face the goalkeeper directly!
He has absolute self-confidence, and after breaking through Li Liang in the next second, his right foot will definitely be able to score this single knife that is not very difficult!
Everyone in the audience held their breath, and the Chinese players who were still hopeless but still desperately chasing back were praying for a miracle in their hearts, and it seemed that Li Liang could no longer stop the opponent-
At the moment when Ji Chengyong got up, Lippi even believed that fate really took over the game, and good luck was really on the side of the Koreans.
He saw that Ji Chengyong's shot was directly blocked by the desperate Zhou Zhi, but it bounced to the left side of the penalty area and fell to the feet of Huang Xican, and he felt deep despair.
The Chinese players were scrambling for a header in the middle and blocking Ji Chengyong's long-range shot, which flew to the farthest position from the densest crowd, just between Meng Fang, who was dragging behind at the far end, and Jiang Peng, who had already pressed forward to create an offside.
Even if Li Liang, who fell to the ground, is not offside.
Feng Xiao shouted desperately while chasing Huang Xican: "Don't let it go! He's not offsideβ"
At this moment, Lippi saw Li Liang suddenly stand up!
At this time, Huang Xican had already made a change of direction, but what shocked him was that Li Liang didn't pay attention to his change of direction at all, and he realized that his opponent had already changed direction before his own and started to act!
Li Liang still remembered that he stood up from the inside of the penalty line, and he gathered all his strength, stepped out and rushed directly towards Huang Xican.
This explosion was completely beyond Huang Xican's imagination, and he couldn't dodge it and was directly hit by Li Liang!
Both of them lost their balance at the same time and fell to the ground! Zheng Cheng, who had already attacked, successfully fell to the ground and threw the ball in his arms.
The referee who followed up in place blew the whistle without hesitation, and strode towards Li Liang, who had fallen to the ground, to signal him to stand up.
The teammates are all shouting: "Ryoko don't get up first!" β
Captain Zhou Zhi desperately explained to the referee that Li Liang was neither the last defender nor had any intention of hurting anyone.
Feng Xiao directly bumped into Huang Xican, who jumped up and rushed to the referee excitedly, with his chest, and the players of both sides were fiercely entangled.
With the help of the assistant referee, the two sides were separated, but Li Liang still stood up straight to his feet - although his teammates were shouting for him to continue to fall to the ground.
Uncontrollably in tears, he turned and walked towards the edge of the pitch, taking off his jersey as he went.
Without looking back, he could imagine the referee holding up the red card behind him.
He was the last defender, and although he didn't deliberately hurt anyone, this tactical foul completely ruined the opponent's single knife, and it was definitely a direct red card.
Li Liang hadn't cried so sadly for a long time, and he didn't even hear the audience's "Li Liang!" "Li Liang" roared neatly.
He has no choice, except for fouls, it is impossible to stop Huang Xican's breakthrough.
He looked at himself and said, "Well, at least this time without hesitation. β
Li Liang retreated to the players' tunnel, and Liu Tie had already walked over quickly and handed over his coat.
They witnessed that in the loudest shout of the whole game, the free kick of the South Korean team at the last moment was hit by Ji Chengyong on the wall and was kicked out of bounds by Zhou Zhi.
They saw that the referee finally raised his arms and blew the whistle firmly at the end of the game.
The Chinese team finally defeated the opponent by one goal, ending the humiliating record of no win in an official match against South Korea in the team's history.
