826 Technology and Psychology

The moment the ball left Elo's forehead, it became the focus of the fans, and the German fans standing in the first stand behind the goal instantly made a gesture of holding their heads in their hands, and they watched the ball fly between the crossbar and the goal post with a painful expression.

Loew, who was standing on the sidelines, folded his hands on his hips and frowned, his mouth naturally opened, and the German player standing behind him with his shoulders on his shoulders also had similar expressions and looked frightened.

Gao Hongbo, the technical command of the Chinese coaches, still retains that nervousness, and the other Chinese players almost all have wide-eyed eyes and exaggerated expressions, as if they are about to win the lottery jackpot.

The players on both sides in the German penalty area instinctively turned their heads to look at the football flying towards the goal, Neuer who was standing in the middle of the goal and Lahm on the right side of the goal post were stunned at this moment as if someone had cast a spell, in fact, it was just their bodies that couldn't keep up with the thinking of their heads.

"Oops!"

A word popped into their minds at the same time.

Huang Jianxiang and He Wei in the on-site commentary seat secretly clenched their fists, their mouths naturally opened, ready to shout the goal......

"-Bang!!"

The next moment, the ball hit the crossbar and the right post, then bounced off Lahm's left shoulder and slammed again on the underside of the crossbar and towards the goal line.

At this time, the football was no longer as fast as before, Rahm and Neuer and the players on both sides in the penalty area reacted, but Rahm's reaction was the fastest, his left foot slammed directly under the football, the football flew high into the air, and when the football fell, because it was far away from the penalty area, the referee also blew the whistle for the end of the game.

Beep~Beep~Beep~~~

At the same time, the German fans in the stands erupted in a loud cheer, and the entire Durban stadium seemed to tremble violently under their shouts.

Only the Chinese fans were stunned to maintain the posture just now, and their arms were raised......

It wasn't until the cheers of the German fans reached their peak that they lowered their arms and sat down on their seats.

Elo, who missed the goal again, looked at the German goalpost with a puzzled expression, and he really couldn't believe that the goal post could block his three must-score chances in one game.

In particular, the ball slammed between the crossbar and the post and hit Lahm's left shoulder, then bounced off the underside of the crossbar and crashed to the goal line......

This is simply a plot that only appears in novels, otherwise how could there be so many doorposts in this world so coincidentally?

Two words suddenly popped up in Iro's heart:!

At the end of the game, the German commentator in the on-site commentary seat said happily: "The game is over!" Germany got off to a good start by beating China 3:2 in the first group stage of Group D of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa! Congratulations!! And at this time I would like to say a word to the German lads on the pitch - you guys are amazing!! ”

Huang Jianxiang, who was unwilling, had to give his final commentary: "The referee blew the whistle of the whole game, and the Chinese team unfortunately lost to the German team 2:3 in the first group stage of the World Cup in South Africa, but the fans in front of the TV should not be discouraged, because we have seen a Chinese team with great hope of advancing to the round of 16, and it can play such a bloody 90 minutes in the face of the world's strongest team Germany, which is an improvement!" And there are still two rounds in the group stage, as long as the young men of the Chinese team play at the level of this game against the German team, then it is very promising to advance to the round of 16......"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray said regretfully: "It's really a pity, if I'm not mistaken, Ai hit the goal post four times in this game, luck is really bad, otherwise it is still unknown whether the German team can score points in the first group game, so it is not accidental that the Chinese team beat the French team by two goals a week ago, they have a factor of becoming a world-class team!" ”

"At the end of the game, the Chinese team led by Ai lost to the German team 2:3 at the Durban Stadium, which is a pity, but it is undeniable that in the forty-five minutes of the second half of this game, we can see a Chinese team that is enough to compete with the German team, come on! There are still two rounds in the group stage, and I hope the Chinese team can make persistent efforts to play well! Goodbye, I'm your friend Gary Lineker......"

Although the Chinese team failed to equalize in the end, it relied on its tenacious fighting spirit to win the attention of all the media on the scene, especially Ailuo, who hit the goal post four times in this game, and became the darling of the media......

German coach Loew also highlighted Aiello in the post-match press conference, he believes that the German team can win in the end and the Chinese team is unlucky, but he does not think that the Chinese team has reached the level of a world-class team, and there is only one reason why it can pose a huge threat to the German team.

Of course, in the eyes of many media, Loew is just a dead duck with a hard mouth.

At least the Chinese media and the British media believe that the Chinese team has the quality to qualify for Group D, but the future of the German team is worrying.

Because the German team's performance in the whole game is hugely different, in the first half they were world-class, but in the second half, it was like a different team, and they could only passively choose to defend in the face of the Chinese team's attack.

The next day, the world's media following the World Cup reported the headlines to the goal battle between China and Germany that ended yesterday.

Among them, Iro, who scored twice and scored twice on the post, became the focus of the report.

This World Cup Group D group stage is the first time that Iroh has played 90 minutes after more than half a year, and before the game, many media were worried about whether Iroh could last the whole game after only playing more than half an hour as a substitute after returning from injury, but his appearance at the Durban Stadium last night can be said to have completely dispelled the media's doubts.

Interestingly, the French newspaper France Football reported that they believed that Elo's personal level of competition and form was at the highest level, but his luck was not at the corresponding level.

"South Africa local time last night ended the last group game of Group D, the Chinese team lost to Germany 2:3, the process of the game can be described as ups and downs, exciting, the Chinese team's star Ai swept all two goals, his competitive state after returning from injury is breathtaking, and he also hit the goal post directly three times in the game, it can be said that the luck of the Chinese team is really not very good, or it can be said that it is terrible, otherwise the German team will not be able to get the planned three points in the first round of the group......"

The authoritative German newspaper "Kicker" questioned Loew's technical and tactical play in a report on the same day: "Loew should really be glad that the Durban Stadium is a 'loyal fan' of the German team, otherwise our glorious tradition of continuing the five World Cups will be ruined by him, and in the face of the Chinese team's attack, he chose to retreat across the board, so what about the next group stage opponents Serbia and Ghana?" Is that still the case? Where did that World Cup qualifier go? ”

Even former German captain Ballack said in an interview that the German team has lost its spirit.

So the German team was under a lot of pressure after a hard-fought win, whether it was manager Loew or the other German players.

The Chinese team has been widely praised, and the physical newspaper headed by the "Sports Daily" directly said that the Chinese team is a world-class team: "The group stage of the South African World Cup Group D Chinese team and the German team ended in the early hours of this morning, our national team played normally throughout the game, and the German team played inseparably, Ailo also created the first goal of the Chinese team in the history of the World Cup, a little pity is bad luck, captain Ailo's nine kicks hit the frame range eight times, including two goals, hit the goal post four times, In the end, we lost to Germany 2:3, otherwise we could have obtained the first points in the history of the World Cup in the group stage......"

For example, the virtual network reports of the four major domestic portals Penguin, Sohu, New Wolf, and Wangyi are even more exaggerated.

However, there is still a gap with the post bar, Weibo, and forums......

After the Chinese team lost to the German team 2:3 in the first round of the group stage, Xi Jingping, who served as vice president of the country, under the leadership of the leadership of the Football Association, also met with all the coaching staff members and players of the national football team at the hotel where the national football team stayed.

To everyone's envy, Iroh received the unique compliment from the vice chairman: "It's great!" ”

Of course, he didn't neglect one or the other, and when he left the hotel, he specially encouraged the other players.

Just when all the media focused on the Chinese team, they had already been escorted by local overseas Chinese and fans to Durban International Airport to take a flight to Johannesburg, one of the three capitals of South Africa, where the Chinese team will play the second group stage match of Group D of the World Cup against the Ghana national team at the Real Bafken Stadium in Rustenburg, 120 kilometers north of Johannesburg.

The Chinese team's amazing record of losing to Germany in the first round of the group has been recognized by many local fans, especially the team's top scorer Elo.

The local fans were so enthusiastic that the Chinese players worked very hard during the resumption of training.

Gao Hongbo and Fu Bo stood on the sidelines and nodded repeatedly.

They know that the national team's last disappointing defeat to Germany was not accidental, but that the players' self-confidence has increased a lot.

In fact, the personal skills of many Chinese players are not lost to European players, especially this group of young players, who are very good, but they lack self-confidence, just like many Chinese people feel that foreign products are much better than domestic products, but it is undeniable that there are still a lot of high-quality products in China.

So the previous gap was not a technical problem, but a psychological problem.
