Chapter 379: The First Goal of the World Cup
The Chinese team is participating in the World Cup for the first time, and they have been placed in Group F, which includes Paraguay, Slovakia and Italy in addition to Huaxia.
It can be said that the grouping situation of the Huaxia team is not very optimistic, because none of the three opponents is easy to bully.
However, the Huaxia team also gave full play to its mathematical advantages and sought a better situation for the Huaxia team.
In the first game against Slovakia, it is better to win the game, the second game against Italy, it doesn't matter if you lose, and the third game against Paraguay, a draw can qualify.
Of course it's a great way to do it, but it's still unknown what will happen in the game.
After all, it is the debut of the Chinese team in the World Cup, and although South Africa is far away from China, there are still many Chinese viewers who come to the scene and want to watch the game.
In the first game, the Chinese team will play against the Slovak team.
The whole situation in Group F is that the Slovak team is a relatively weak team, because the Slovak team is also participating in the World Cup finals for the first time, so both teams are considered debuts.
Although the reputation of the Slovak team is not obvious, when they were with the Czech team before, they were also dominant, and in recent years, it has also become an upward momentum, and the outside world is still not very optimistic about Huaxia.
This is Goldwind's first World Cup game for the Chinese team.
Because the Huaxia team participated, Huaxia TV also sent a lot of commentators to explain this game, especially the game of the Huaxia team.
Huang Huo and Fan Feng served as the commentators for this competition.
"Welcome to the first round of Group F of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa against Slovakia." As soon as Huang Huo came up, he pointed out to everyone the focus of this competition.
"Both opponents in this match are entering the World Cup for the first time, and it is also the first time in their history that they have met each other." Huang Huo said again.
"If you look at it from this aspect alone, there is not the slightest problem, but don't forget that Slovakia used to be the same country as the Czech Republic, and the Czechoslovak team at that time was also a world powerhouse and often entered the World Cup finals, so it is not accurate enough to say that they entered the World Cup finals for the first time." Fan Feng is still very familiar with this history.
"So does this mean that Slovakia's strength is not weak?" Huang Huo is concerned about the strength of the other party.
"How so? Throughout the entire Group F, Slovakia does have a little gap with other teams, needless to say, Italy, the champion of the last World Cup, the old powerhouse, Paraguay is also a frequent visitor to the World Cup, and it is also outstanding in the football mecca of South America, so Slovakia's strength is relatively weak. "Fan Feng can only analyze the situation of this group.
"So does Director Fan think the Huaxia team can win?" Huang Huo asked Fan Feng, and his question was also what many Chinese fans wanted to ask.
"It's hard to say, after all, football is round." Fan Feng can't guarantee that who can say clearly what is happening on the football field.
The players on both sides played, and this was the first time that Chinese football appeared in the World Cup.
Goldwind is the main force of the game, even if he hasn't played in football for a long time.
Both teams are not very familiar with each other, and they are both playing each other for the first time, so the game started rather conservatively.
Zhu Bo's positioning of the Huaxia team is very clear, don't look at the outside about the sky, what is sure to win the Slovak team, that's a joke, Zhu Bo will not believe that the Huaxia team can win the Slovak team so easily.
Therefore, the goal set by Zhu Bo at the beginning was to defend and counterattack, first defend well, and then seek a breakthrough in attack.
Although the tactics of the two teams are relatively conservative, relatively speaking, the Slovak team temporarily occupies the advantage on the field, and their attack can be regarded as prosperous.
But it just didn't break through the gate of the Huaxia team.
"Huaxia's defense is still good, but is it useful to defend like this?" Huang Huo asked suspiciously.
"In fact, Slovakia is still stronger than the Chinese team, and our Chinese team is participating in the World Cup for the first time, of course, we should be cautious." Fan Feng felt that there was not the slightest problem with Zhu Bo's tactics.
"Defend and look for gaps." Huaxia just likes to use this style of play.
The Slovak coach has also studied the tactics of the Chinese team, and they also know that the Chinese team likes to play defensive counterattack tactics, and if they want to break this tactic, they must violently attack the opponent's door and open the opponent's defense.
In the first half of the game, it can be said that it was very dull, basically there were not too many shooting opportunities, the Chinese team had no offensive opportunities, and the Slovak team was limited by the defense of the Chinese team.
At halftime, Zhu Bo did not arrange too many tactics, and in his opinion, continuing to hold on is the most important thing.
In fact, now is the time for the two sides to compete for patience to see whose patience is more durable.
It was clear that the Slovakia team was not as patient as the Chinese team, and they continued to increase their attack in the second half to defeat the Chinese team in one fell swoop.
While the Chinese team is solid in defense, it is also looking for opportunities to win the game.
Sure enough, not long after the start of the second half, the Slovak team made a fatal mistake, when they attacked, a pass was not in place, and it was directly stealed by the Chinese team.
The Huaxia team, which barely had the slightest attack in a game, immediately launched a counteroffensive tide.
The football soon came to the feet of Jin Feng, Jin Feng quickly rushed to the opponent's half, and several defenders of the opposing side wanted to pounce, but they were all passed by Jin Feng.
"Single-handed, Goldwind got an excellent one-knife opportunity, can Goldwind score the first goal of the Chinese team in the World Cup?" Huang Huo shouted excitedly.
With such a good opportunity, how could Goldwind let it go? He was very dexterous in picking the ball past the opposing goalkeeper and slotting the ball into the net with ease.
"The goal was scored, the first goal of the Chinese team in the World Cup came, and it was still Golden Wind who scored for the Chinese team." Huang Huo shouted the name.
The Chinese fans at the scene were very happy, everyone came to the scene of course to see the victory of a game, the Chinese team really lived up to expectations, leading the first goal.
"With a goal from Jinfeng, the Chinese team temporarily led the opponent with a score of 1-0." Although this goal was scored, for the Chinese team, the game was still early, and it should not be taken lightly, after all, the second half had just begun.
