Chapter 6 Penalty Shootout
"Oh no, God, it's incredible, Yu Liang is like a moving Great Wall, blocking Seneciye's shot! Damn it, we did better than them, and we deserved to win! ”
Luke Bird looked up to the sky and sighed as Seneciye's shot was blocked.
"Oh no, dangerous ......"
Accompanied by Luke Bed's shout, there was an exclamation in the Willem II Stadium.
The football that bounced out flew directly in front of Chen Tao. As the most skilled player in the national youth team, Chen Tao easily unloaded the ball, and then made a long pass, accurately finding the front of King Dong who had rushed to the center line. King Dong was replaced before the start of the second half of overtime, replaced by Gao Lin. The purpose of Crowchen is to retain the impact of the national youth team in the front court, and at the same time, to comfort King Dong.
It is estimated that even Crawchen himself did not expect that at this time, King Dong's advantage was actually reflected, that is, speed!
This is also why Chen Tao gave a certain amount of advance when he passed.
King Dong, who rushed up, was indeed a great threat.
After catching up with the football, the outside instep knocked directly and went directly several meters away. Looking at Yankel and Matip, who were about to close the door, King Dong made up his mind to eat it raw with speed.
Rumble!
Dong Wangsheng's visit directly ignited the atmosphere in the stadium.
More than 7,000 Chinese fans immediately cheered, and even some neutral fans threw their voices and shouted. Because no one thought that the overtime, which had been dull for more than ten minutes, was about to stage a speed passion.
In terms of speed alone, Yankel and Matip were not King Dong's opponents, so after they saw King Dong's intentions, they immediately split into two ways. Yankel quickly returned to defending, while Matip stayed to interfere with King Dong, and he would even go so far as to foul if he could. However, when Matip and King Dong were staggered, King Dong accelerated, stumbled with Matip who was about to foul, directly shook off Matip, and rushed towards the door of the German national youth team with the football.
Yankel, who returned to the defense, never thought that King Dong would come so quickly, or he was even more puzzled about how Matip's defense could become so vegetable! Looking at the approaching King Dong, Yankel directly put the shovel.
"Oh!"
"Beautiful!"
"Come on, Chinese team! King Dong come on! ”
At the moment when Yankel put the tackle, Dong Wang rubbed the ball with the outside instep, and the ball drew an arc to avoid Yankel's tackle, and at the same time, the whole person jumped up to avoid Yankel's tackle.
Perhaps this moment has become the most gorgeous moment for King Dong on the World Youth Championships!
"Single knife, single knife, opportunity, the opportunity of the national youth team is here, and the time has come for King Dong to become famous!"
Although King Dong joined Manchester United, he was loaned to Antwerp, Belgium because of labor certification, but in the two seasons in Antwerp, King Dong did not get many opportunities and did not show his strength.
If he can show his characteristics and ability in the World Youth Championships, it will undoubtedly be a big help for King Dong to gain a foothold in Manchester United in the future. It's a pity that Crouchen never waited to see him, allowing Gao Lin to sit firmly in the position of the main force. Only played 37 minutes as a substitute in the three games of the group stage, which is a shame for King Dong!
He needs to score goals to wash away his shame, and he needs goals to tell Crawford that he is better than Gao Lin!
Looking at Adler, who abandoned the goal, King Dong chose to shoot, and the football flew directly towards the goal over Adler......
As the team's biggest player, King Dong has only played less than 40 minutes in the last three games, and although King Dong was very active in the game, his efforts did not translate into goals, and at the same time did not contribute to the team's victory. It turns out that Crowchen's abandonment has his real reason, and perhaps this long-distance run is a redemption for King Dong's poor performance in this competition. Adler abandoned the goal, King Dong was still dribbling the ball, shooting, King Dong suddenly got up and shot, picked up, and easily dodged Adler's save with a pick......"
More than 10,000 eyes were focused on the football, and their heartbeats were beating as the football progressed.
At the moment when the football flew into the goal, the heartbeat of the fans reached a climax, but the next second, the mood of the fans was very different.
King Dong's volley, although delicate and elegant, dodged Adler's save, but he fell a little late, grazing the crossbar and flying out of the bottom line.
"Gee, why didn't the ball go in? It's a pity, King Dong's shot was high above the crossbar, the score was still 2:2, and the national youth team lost the best scoring opportunity in the game, King Dong also missed a chance to score! The game continues ......"
Huang Jianxiang's words did not lose the meaning of regret, as long as King Dong's shot can score, then the national youth team will win the final victory of the game. Because this goal has the potential to shatter the belief that the Germans are holding onto.
But no, the national youth team that missed the goal still has to bear the attack of the German national youth team.
Three minutes, five minutes, seven minutes, as the time slowly passed, the German national youth team's attack became more and more impatient, and at the same time, it did not have the same caution as after being threatened by King Dong alone. Often after passing through the midfield and coming to the 30-meter area, it is a hasty long-range shot to end an attack. Such a long-range shot will not only not be able to threaten the door of the national youth team, but will deepen the anxiety in their hearts.
In the 27th minute of extra time, Gentner's pass in front was directly intercepted by Yu Liang. Just as he was about to launch a counterattack, Delula fouled directly behind and brought down Yu Liang.
The foul was not so bad, so the referee only gave the national team a free kick at the back.
After Yu Liang got up from the ground, he directly sent the ball quickly and passed the ball to Zhao Xuri. After serving, Yu Liang did not stay in the backcourt as before, which was the first time he stepped forward in the game.
The national youth team, which was blocked in attack, passed the ball back again, and the football just reached Yu Liang's feet, Yu Liang, who got the ball, did not pass the ball immediately, because there was no interference from any opposing player around him at the moment, and when he stopped the ball and was about to observe the position of his teammates, there was a shout from the front.
"Pass! Long pass! ”
Listening to the shouting, Yu Liang only saw King Dong in the front court, standing sideways, waving his arms, and constantly pointing to the gap in front of him.
Pass?
If it comes to short passes, Yu Liang can still handle it. But Yu Liang, who has never practiced for a long time, really doesn't have much confidence in his heart.
After frowning and hesitating for a while, Yu Liang still chose a long pass.
Because there is indeed a small gap in front of King Dong, according to his explosiveness, he can indeed get a football to complete the shot before the opposing defender, but this passing technique is ......
"Whew, I can only resign myself to fate......"
Watching the football fly towards the front court at high speed, Yu Liang muttered silently in his heart.
The football did not live up to Yu Liang's expectations, flew to the front, and also found King Dong, but when King Dong received the football, the opponent's defender and goalkeeper had already blocked King Dong's shooting route. And King Dong, who was eager to score, did not choose to pass back, forced his foot, and directly hit the opponent's defender and bounced out of the penalty area, which was obtained by the opposing player.
"Oh, a wonderful long pass, from Yu Liang, I really didn't expect that when the overtime was about to end, Yu Liang would be able to give us such a surprise, but unfortunately King Dong did not seize the opportunity, and the national youth team once again lost the opportunity to overtake the score, and the score was still 2:2!"
After a panic, both sides tacitly chose to abandon the attack, and three minutes later, the referee blew the whistle for the end of extra time.
"At the end of extra time, the two sides will decide the winner through a penalty shootout! In the Asian Cup a year ago, the Chinese team eliminated the Iranian team through a penalty shootout in the semifinals and advanced to the final, creating the best record in the Asian Cup! I hope that the young players of the national youth team can continue their previous form in the penalty shootout and create a new record for the Chinese men's football team in the World Series! ”
"At the World Youth Championships in the Soviet Union in 85, the youth team broke into the quarterfinals in one fell swoop under the leadership of Coach Zhang and Coach Wang, and finally won the seventh place, creating the best result in the World Youth Championships. However, after the expansion of the World Youth Championships, the Chinese youth team has never reached the quarterfinals. At the World Youth Championships four years ago, the Chinese youth team barely reached the top 16, and was finally eliminated by the host Argentina in the quarterfinals! And today, in the face of the German national youth team, the boys stubbornly dragged the game into extra time, let's take a look at the upcoming penalty shootout, the first penalty is the German national youth team, Yang Cheng has walked to the goal, the first penalty of the German team De Lula, this is the number one star of the German national youth team! ”
"Shh
More than 7,000 Chinese fans in the stadium successfully played their part, and the overwhelming boos poured from the stands to the center of the stadium and poured into Delula's ears.
Yu Liang, who was standing in the middle circle, listened to the boos in the sky, and his Adam's apple stirred. Looking at Delula, who looked at ease, Yu Liang's heart seemed to have been touched by something, but he couldn't think of what it was for a while.
Sou!
Under the interference of thousands of fans, De Lula faced Yang Cheng in one fell swoop, 1:0!
The first player in the Chinese national youth team was Chen Tao. This game scored twice, twice broke through the door of Adler's handle, and this time was no exception, calmly pushing into the net from 12 yards, 1:1!
Although the players on both sides are under a lot of pressure in their hearts, but in the first five rounds, no player missed a penalty, and the goalkeepers of both sides did not save the penalty, 5:5, after five rounds, the two sides still maintained a draw.
Penalty shootout, the first five rounds are to compare the total number of goals, but after five rounds, one goal decides the winner, once one side scores a penalty and one side misses, the penalty kick wins, and the game is over! So the penalty shootout after five rounds is even more exciting.
Yu Liang in the crowd looked at the German youth players walking towards the penalty spot, and his heart became inexplicably nervous.
In order to relieve this tension in his heart, Yu Liang kept shaking his arms and occasionally shaking his legs.
"Yu Liang, what's wrong with you?"
The first to notice that Yu Liang was wrong was Chen Tao beside him.
Glancing at Chen Tao, Yu Liang smiled awkwardly. This smile already explained the problem, and Chen Tao was also relieved.
"Relax, relax, relax, don't think about the other team's goalkeeper, you just have to do it in the way you are familiar with, you can do it!"
Glancing at Chen Tao gratefully, Yu Liang took a few deep breaths......
