At the Australian Stadium in Sydney, Li Guo arrived as scheduled, and the other semi-final of this Asian Cup is about to be held, where the host Australia and the Persian Iron Rider Iran will face off. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Iran is a team that has won the Asian Cup three times, and coupled with the fierce style of play, it has always been the most difficult bone to bite in Asia.

In the interview before the game, Postecoglou did not say anything full, probably expecting this game to be difficult, everyone has seen Iran's performance in the World Cup, even Argentina won by one goal.

After the start of the game, Iran was dominated by the opponents, Queiroz has been standing on the sidelines of the stadium to supervise the game, and the Iranian team has attacked fiercely.

The Australian Stadium in Sydney is also the venue for the finals, and the Australians' intention to make this arrangement is clear, that is, to familiarize their national team with the final venue in advance, and the premise of all this is that the national team enters the final.

But with 15 minutes played, the Iranians gave Australia a blow to the head when Dejaga, a player recalled from Germany (similar to China's Lin Zhijian), broke down the flank and suddenly cut inside and shot straight at the goal from a small angle.

The Australian goalkeeper was caught off guard, the ball drilled into the goal from the near corner, and after the goal, the whole field was as quiet as death, and those who didn't know thought it was their own TV that was broken, but no, tens of thousands of people at the scene were silent at the same time.

Iranians in white jerseys are running and celebrating, while Australians are a little confused, and veteran Cahill is comforting his team-mates and clapping their hands to get them excited.

"It's all exciting for me, the opponent just stole one, it's not a big deal, we're going to knock out Iran and make it to the final."

Cahill's yelling still worked, his team-mates did ease up a lot, and a team can only show the value of a veteran when it's tough.

Just when the Australians wilted, the camera cut to Li Guo, and I saw Li Guo wearing sunglasses, chewing gum, and watching the excitement.

Seeing this scene, the Australian fans at the scene felt like they had eaten flies, and they couldn't vomit out of their nausea.

The Australians have been holding their breath - the final is going to destroy the Chinese team, but if they can't even get into the final, it will not be a great shame.

When the game restarted, Postecoglou walked to the sidelines, he didn't pass a tactical note or yell, he just watched quietly with his hands around his chest.

As the de facto controller of Australian football, he is still very confident in his heart, he feels that the Iranian team is not invulnerable, this team is good at playing tailwind, it doesn't matter, let the opponent be arrogant for a while.

Soon, Australian football still had a slight advantage, although Iran claimed to be the Persian Iron Horseman, but their race was still Asian, and the Australians were the real Caucasian race, and they were not at the same level in terms of confrontation.

The Australians suppressed the Iranian team with a tough confrontation and active running, and Queiroz pushed the boat with the water, just like in the World Cup, simply setting up an iron bucket formation.

Li Guo thinks it's not good, Queiroz can't do this, a team is only beaten, there is no counterattack ability, then in the end it can't be held, the game against Argentina is the best example, although Australia does not have Messi, but maybe which star has a flash of inspiration.

"Idiot, if you go head-to-head with the Australians in midfield, maybe this game will really be won," Li Guo said regretfully.

At the end of the first half, the score of 1-0 appeared on the big screen was so dazzling, and the fans at the scene were also very conflicted, wanting to boo, but for fear of hurting morale, they wanted to applaud? I also feel that the team's performance is not worthy.

Li Guo stood up and stretched, trying to find a place to move, but two strong white men immediately walked over, they were Australian plainclothes policemen.

The Australian side was afraid that some fans couldn't help it and beat Li Guo, which would be bad, so they sent two capable police officers to protect Li Guo closely.

"Hello, do you want chewing gum?"

The two shook their heads.

"What about beer, hot dogs? I'll buy it and bring you a copy by the way. ”

One of them stepped forward and said, "Whatever you need, I'll get someone to buy it right away, and I hope you don't move around until the game is over." ”

Li Guo didn't want to embarrass them, nodded, turned around and sat down.

At the beginning of the second half, there were no substitutions on either side, but the smell of gunpowder on the pitch became stronger and stronger, and both teams were fierce in the style of play, and soon yellow cards appeared in succession.

Unfortunately, Australia did not have a strong opponent in the previous game, so they did not eat many cards, which means that unless there is a red card, the Australian player is not at risk of being suspended.

Moreover, in today's football, there is also a trick called shuffling, if there is a yellow card on the body, then in the third game of the group stage, those players will deliberately foul and eat cards, and wash the yellow card in advance.

This made Li Guo very annoyed, when he checked Australia's yellow card record before the game, he found that Australia's 11 main players were clean, which must have been arranged, otherwise it is unlikely.

On the other hand, the Iranian side is not good, they met Iraq in the quarterfinals, and the two teams staged a hot Iran-Iraq battle, the score was 3-3, and finally scored a penalty shootout, so the Iranians have a lot of yellow cards.

After a flying tackle, Nekonan received a yellow card, he tackled someone else, but he was in pain, because even if Iran reached the final, he would miss out on the suspension due to the accumulation of yellow cards.

Postecoglou smiled, knowing that Iran had four or five yellow cards on their squad and that the Iran-Iraq rivalry had been a huge drain on the team, Australia would have scored in the second half.

But he underestimated the small universe of the Iranians, who were really good at holding on until the 70th minute, when the score was still 0-1.

Australian fans are a little worried that Brazil's bad luck will befall Australia, and the hosts have not been lucky in the past few years.

Li Guo thought to himself: "Idiot, quickly replace Cahill and replace him with a strong striker, Cahill is in front of the Iranians, and his confrontation ability is still not good, and he can't smash it." ”

Li Guo thinks like this, not to help Australians, he is just a mentality of watching the excitement, whoever is behind, he will help whom, this game is better to drag into a penalty shootout, and it will be interesting to do it.

Li Guo turned around and glanced at the black-clothed plainclothes, they were also very anxious, who didn't care about things related to national honor?

Finally, on 75 minutes, Postecoglou replaced Cahill with No.9 Juric, and Australia blew the horn of the general attack. (To be continued.) )
