There is no official break between the main draw and extra time, but the players can take a quick break with a drink of water on the sidelines. When Zhang Yi and Cannavaro tossed coins to pick the side, the Chinese team players lay down on the sidelines in turn, and the Chinese team doctors were recovering for them, Zheng Zhi, Hao Junmin, Sun Xiang and Yang Jie even started acupuncture. Lu Hai briefly explained the precautions for overtime to the players, and at the same time helped the doctors press twice, and he was still much higher than these doctors who could see the physical data.

The spectators in the stadium and the world were shocked by this scene, they had never seen such a scene, especially the large long needles shaking on the bodies of the four players of the Chinese team who did acupuncture, which made people shudder. Some viewers even think that this is the Chinese team doing some kind of ritual, which can make the opponent unable to score goals, and the two penalties that the Chinese team blocked in 90 minutes are because of such a ritual.

The recovery that the doctors are doing to the players now is specially researched by Lu Hai for extra time before the World Cup, and this kind of recovery can be completed once every 3 minutes, of course, the effect is much worse than once every ten minutes.

The Italian team also borrowed 3 Lu doctors from Inter Milan, but no one in the team dared to try acupuncture except Materazzi from Inter Milan, and these 3 doctors could not recover in such a short time, and they could only give simple massages to the Italian players.

After the start of extra time, Italy strengthened the attack on the right side, in fact, in the 90 minutes of the game, Camoranesi was the best Italian player, and the entire left side of the Chinese team before and after the four players all received yellow cards because of him. In extra time, the old fox Lippi strengthened the right side in order to better play Camoranesi's breakthrough ability.

The Chinese team is not afraid of tough teams like Germany and England in terms of style, and the players have been trained by Lu Hai, although they are not as good as the players from Northern Europe, Germany and England in terms of physique, but they are not completely inferior in the confrontation, and their excellent physical fitness can make up for the physical weakness. But when encountering teams with excellent dribbling skills such as Brazil and Argentina, the rough skills of Chinese players are completely exposed. This match was played against the Argentine-born Italian player Camoranesi, and this weakness was exposed.

The strong pressure on the left side made the Chinese team's defense tilt to the left as a whole, and when Zambrotta's diagonal long pass found Grosso, the entire right side of the Chinese team was left with Hao Junmin, Zhang Yi did not believe that Hao Junmin could defend Grosso's breakthrough, and he hurriedly ran to make up for the defense. Grosso saw Zhang Yi running quickly, and saw that the middle players of the Chinese team basically returned to the defensive position, Grosso was unwilling to end this attack, and he kicked the ball to Zhang Yi's arm. Let Grosso kick ten more times, he may not be able to kick once, but this time, the ball touched Zhang Yi's flicked forearm, and the referee gave Zhang Yi a yellow card, fortunately, the place of the foul was not in the penalty area.

Lu Hai closed his eyes, he knew that it was almost impossible for the Chinese team to win the championship this time. In the last match against Ukraine, Zhang Yi had a yellow card for rushing the goalkeeper, plus this he will miss the next game. Even if they pass the Italian hurdle, it will be difficult for the Chinese team without Zhang Yi to stop the Germans in the next game.

The Chinese team has fully adapted to Italy's free-kick tactics. In Luhai's dream, every time Italy takes a free kick, Luca has it. Toni, Grosso and Materazzi, three players over 190, rushed into the Chinese team's penalty area, and each time it was like a ghost. Materazzi could not play, which made the air defense pressure of the Chinese team much less.

The first half of extra time ended in fear among the Chinese fans, and after changing sides, the Italians still attacked the left side of the Chinese team. In the 108th minute, Sun Xiang finally received the yellow card for the second chapter of the game, and he tackled Camoranesi behind his back.

Lu Hai used up the remaining two substitutions in one go, No. 15 Zhang Xiong and No. 4 Feng Xiaoting replaced No. 3 Zheng Zhi and No. 5 Zhou Haibin. No. 15 Zhang Xiong can play left-back and left-midfield, and No. 4 Feng Xiaoting can play center-back or right-back. Lu Hai has carefully studied the Italians' chain defense, and the height of the Italian defenders is very interesting. In the case of this Italian team, among the two full-backs, Zambrotta is 180 tall, which is considered a normal height among footballers, and Grosso is 190; The two central defenders, Cannavaro at 177 and Materazzi at 195, are Materazzi's substitute Nesta at 187. In the Maldini and Baresi eras, the height of Italy's entire defence was also distributed in this way - two centre-backs were one tall and one sensitive, and two full-backs were also one tall and one sensitive. When they defend, the central defenders and full-backs are interchangeable, can be more free and convenient to fill the position, change positions, in the attack, every time to the front court to assist, it is also a high and a sensitive, stay in the backfield is also a high and a sensitive. Therefore, during training, Lu Hai deliberately let Feng Xiaoting, who was 187, change to right back, in this game, because Zhang Yi played center back and Materazzi on the opposite side did not play, the air defense pressure of the Chinese team was not great, so at the beginning, Feng Xiaoting was sitting on the bench. But after the Chinese team was sent off by two people, the remaining tactic was to block the goal, and being tall still had benefits.

The Chinese team was completely pressed back into the penalty area, and even Lei Heng ran to the left side to help defend Camoranesi. In the early morning of July 1, 2006, all Chinese fans thought that the time was so long. Behind the Italians' frenzied attack was that they didn't want to play a penalty shootout with China, and they thought that today's penalty was too unfriendly to them.

In the 117th minute, Zambrotta crossed from the bottom, Zhang Yi pushed the ball out of the penalty area, Pirlo rushed up and shot a long shot, the ball hit the post and bounced back into the field, when Perrotta rushed up to grab the point, Yang Jie pulled Perrotta in a hurry. Red cards, penalties.

The Italian fans in the audience cheered happily, Lu Hai watched Yang Jie, who was wiping his eyes, walk off the field, patted his head gently, and didn't say much.

The TV camera was aimed at Yang Yi in the stands, and Yang Yi was already crying pear blossoms with rain.

The fans in China were silent, and even Huang Jianxiang took out the commentary that had already been prepared and the Chinese team was eliminated.

But something strange happened on the pitch, the Italian players were humbling the penalty to each other, and none of them wanted to take it. According to the arrangement, Italy's first penalty taker is Totti, but Totti has already left the field, and the second penalty taker is Pirlo, Pirlo said that he was not in good shape today, Piero also said that he would not punish anything, and the captain Cannavaro looked around, and there was no player to take over the job. None of them are stupid, under such a wild attack by the Italian team, the goalkeeper's strength on the goal line has long been tested, and no player in the entire Italian team has the confidence to score this penalty.

Yang Yi in the stands slowly stopped crying, although she couldn't fully understand what was happening on the field, she knew that it shouldn't be a bad thing for the Chinese team. Huang Jianxiang also put back the commentary he had just taken out, and he suddenly felt that the Italians probably couldn't score this penalty.

In the end, at the urging of the referee, Pirlo gritted his teeth and took the football that he should have taken and walked to the penalty spot.
