Chapter 338: Counterattack against the sky
"Croatia was scored first by Turkey, which is indeed different from history, but compared with real history, not only did it not advance, but it also retreated...... It seems that the course of this European Championship is indeed a bit suspenseful......"
Arostie stood quietly in the audience of the stadium watching the game, others thought she was just an ordinary fan, and no one thought that she was a person who wanted to change history. www.biquge.info In history, in the 96 European Cup, in the real world, Croatia defeated Turkey 1-0 in the first game, but the current situation is that Turkey scored a goal by Hakansuk to lead Croatia 1-0. Although this is indeed a change in history, it is not a positive change, but a reverse change, and if the final thing always develops in the opposite direction, then will history produce a kind of backward tragedy......
……
At this time, the atmosphere on the field was suddenly tense, our Croatian team fell behind Turkey 0:1, we bombarded the Turkish team's goal, not only did not achieve results, but also scored a goal by the Turkish counterattack, which made our later games very difficult to play, they can rest assured that they can boldly play a defensive counterattack, and even can't defend it, as long as Rustu continues to arrange the tactics of the back line, let their back line stare at our attacking players, and even use 8 or 9 people to defend, It's okay to have one person left to fight back. Their tactical thinking can easily work, and if we can't attack it, it will only expose more gaps. Hakansuk can take advantage of the gap at every chance and continue to threaten our goal, so that the rest of our games will be very dangerous indeed.
But what if we don't attack? If we don't attack, we risk that the Turkish team will keep this score until the end - losing one goal is also a loss, losing two goals is also a loss, the only way for us is to attack, attacking is dead, not attacking is dead, at least there is a way to survive if we attack. If we continue to defend slowly, we will surely die. So, I can only continue to lead my Croatian team to attack, attack, and attack, even at the risk of a big loss, I have to press out and attack!
Midfield serve! Boban passed the ball to Prosinetski, who passed it back to central defender Bilic, who took a few steps forward and passed the ball to Marić on the right, who dribbled forward and broke past one of the Turkish midfielders before heading towards the opposite penalty area! Marić may not be the best player in our Croatian squad, but he has always been a very courageous man! Although his speed is not very fast, but his technique and endurance are very good, his side breakthrough, the main thing is not to rely on speed, but on technology, as long as he is allowed to hold the ball on the side to break through, often can play a new situation on the side. This time it was the same, Marić's side breakthrough allowed us to make a gap on the right side, I and Boksic quickly stepped forward, Boban and Prosinetski also approached in the direction of Marić, Marić passed the ball to Boban, I and Boksic pushed forward, attracting the defense of two defenders of the Turkish team, Boban received the ball, and Prosinetski made a one-two, after the successful cooperation, he actually successfully entered the Turkish team's big penalty area!
The big penalty area for the Turkish team is not something we can ask for. Boban was soon caught between two centre-backs and he stumbled into the box, but the referee didn't blow for a penalty. Rustu got the ball out of Boban's feet and kicked it straight - once again we were faced with an overcrowd in the forward line and no one at the back! The ball flew towards Hakansuk, and this time, Bilic didn't want to lose to him anymore, he ran forward quickly, jumped high, and fought Hakansuk for a header!
Hakansuk is relatively short in height and has a disadvantage in his headers. Bilic jumped high and won the header, which was headed into a no-man's land. Two players from the Turkish team rushed to that area, and at the same time, our defender Gierni also rushed to that position.
At this time, Jairni saw that the ball was about to be lost, and suddenly became furious, and struggled to fly forward and shovel over! The two Turkish players were originally relatively close to the ball, but when they saw Jairni suddenly fly towards them with such a devastating tackle, they were so frightened that they quickly dodged! So Jairni got the ball! He finally won such a battle!
Jairni's victory boosted the morale of our whole team! So that's it! We can't just rely on technology, we still have to rely on stronger mental strength and physical strength to fight such a battle of life and death! Football is certainly a sport that uses many techniques, but it is also a fighting game between people who use their bodies to fight each other! If it's just playing with technology, then we're just playing with the ball at best, we're not fighting, we're not playing the European Cup! The European Cup is a battlefield, and you can't win without fighting!
In any case, we must win, and now the situation of falling behind 0:1 cannot continue!
With a boost in morale, Jairney immediately kicked the ball to the front! At this time, we still have a lot of people up front, most of them still staying in the opponent's box. It just so happened that the ball flew high and far and came to the big penalty area of Turkey! We saw that Jairni worked so hard to get this opportunity for us, and the morale was boosted, including me, Boban, and all the frontcourt players including Boksic, in the battle with the Turks, jumped hard and fought hard! Our determination may have touched heaven and earth, or perhaps our morale overwhelmed the Turkish defenders, and although my header was only average, I won this battle! The ball was pushed to the edge of the six-yard box, where a Turkish centre-back was defending, but Boksic suddenly appeared in that position, tried his best, and fired a hard tackle!
It was so close that Rustu could no longer save such a goal, and the ball was smashed into the Turkish team's net and we finally equalised!
