Chapter 833 - They all want to be the second in the group

During the time period when the Chinese team celebrated the goal, the live director also presented the whole process of Ailuo's goal.

Lineker once again admired the whole goal process of Iro, and he was still excited: "Actually, Zhao's half-high ball was not passed well, but Ai's personal ability was too strong, his chest padd the ball forward, and he controlled the ball in the process of moving, Gao and Yu's two ribs were inserted forward to help Ai take away the defensive strength, he took the ball forward a few steps, and suddenly shot with his feet, and the football had a bounce in front of goalkeeper Stojkovic and drilled into the back corner of the goal......"

"This goal is not only counted on the super strong Ai, but also in the process of turning from attack to defense, Zhang who decisively put the shovel is also indispensable, if it is not for his early prediction to decisively fall to the ground and slide the tackle, then it is not the Chinese team but Serbia that played this wonderful attack! Of course, Ai's personal ability is also fully reflected in the next, whether it is stopping the ball or shooting, it is perfect!! ”

Andy Gray replays the excitement of commentary in slow motion throughout the offense.

Shen Fangjian took advantage of Zhan Jun's hoarse throat and shouted: "The Chinese team opened the scoring, and the score between Germany and Ghana in the Johannesburg Football City Stadium was still 0:0, which means that the game will end according to the current score, then we will advance to the top 16 as the group leader!" ”

Countless Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV or computer are so excited that they can't express their inner excitement in words, in their consciousness, as long as the Chinese team can advance to the top 16, it is already very perfect, where can they ever think of advancing to the top 16 as the group leader?

This is so unrealistic!

Therefore, once this possibility appears, it will make people feel like a dream that was originally out of reach suddenly come true, and the whole person will have a feeling of confusion......

Meanwhile, the technical command area of the German team at the Johannesburg Soccer City Stadium.

The pace of attack and defense of Germany and Ghana on the field changed so quickly that the managers of both sides were always standing on the edge of their own technical command zone, staring at the football on the pitch.

"Joachim."

Loew heard his assistant Flick's call, but he didn't turn his head to respond, because the attack on the field was very threatening, full-back Lahm had already pressed to the winger position, Podolski, Kacau, Muller and midfielder Khedira were all pressed into the Ghana penalty area, as long as Schweinsteiger, who was holding the ball, could pass the ball to the feet of Lahm on the right, then it would be very likely to cause a goal.

Flick walked up to Loew, who did not immediately inform Loew of the news from the other field, and from his experience, the German attack was likely to produce goals.

Schweinsteiger passed the ball to Ozil with his back to attack about 40 meters from Ghana's goal, K. Boateng did not hesitate to go up closely, but Ozil turned the ball to the left with the arch of his right foot, turned to his own side to attack the right side, K. Boateng pounced, and Lahm on the sideline stepped forward.

Mesut Ozil passed the ball to captain Lahm's forward route at the first time, and the four players of the German team ambushing in the Ghana penalty area moved at the same time according to the pre-match outflanking deployment, and the Ghana penalty area was instantly in turmoil.

Instead of looking up into the box, Lahm on the run pushed the ball forward from Mesut Ozil, just enough to avoid a tackle by left-back Annan, and dribbled the ball until it was close to the right touchline and bottom line of the Ghana penalty area before sending an inverted triangle pass.

All the Ghanaian players in the box instinctively froze, turned around and turned their heads to look.

Loew, who was standing on the sidelines, secretly clenched his fists and subconsciously took a step forward.

Mesut Ozil picked up his left foot to meet the ball and the ball magically crossed all the players in the box and hung into the top right corner of the goal, which is the near corner of the goal.

The German fans in the stands erupted in loud cheers, and Loew felt the pressure on his body suddenly relaxed, and he raised his arms and shouted with joy.

After he finished venting the pressure on his body, he found that his assistant Flick was still standing next to him, he was slightly stunned, and then remembered the scene where he called him earlier, turned his head and asked, "Is it the news from the Mbobella Stadium?" ”

"That's right." Frick nodded.

"Huh?" Loew asked tentatively: "Did Serbia score or did China score?" ”

"China!"

Loew's eyebrows furrowed, and he said secretly: "It's really TM Bai happy!" ”

However, when his anxiety passed, another thought suddenly appeared in his mind - the qualification place for Group C has been decided, and if the two games in Group D are finished according to the current scoreline, then Germany will avoid England, who are unexpectedly second in Group C, as the second place in the group......

Thinking of this, Loew's face was full of smiles.

Flick asked suspiciously: "We and China are both ahead of our opponents, which means we are still second in the group, is there anything to be happy about?" ”

Loew shook his head and smiled slowly: "If the qualifying places in Group C do not come out today, we will definitely be scolded to death by the Chinese people for qualifying with a draw, but the current Group C qualifying places have been settled, damn England is the second in Group C, if we grab the first place in the group, it will be very unfavorable to the future schedule, now we and China are leading opponents, that is to say, we can not only give the Chinese people a perfect explanation, but also select the best 1/8 final opponent......"

Flick nodded knowingly, knowing that facing England in the quarter-finals would be a more cost-effective option than facing England.

In fact, after the emergence of the qualification place in Group C, this possibility has also been mentioned by the German media, but most of the German media believe that Germany is insulting the great German team by relegating to the second place in the group in order to avoid England, and the final round of matches must win the opponent!

But right now, there is such a bug, and Loew doesn't want to let it go.

"Oh? Germany also leads Ghana? Gao Hongbo was observing the situation on the field when the game restarted, and muttered the news brought by Fu Bo.

Hearing this news, Gao Hongbo's mind became extremely active.

Previously, because the two games between China and Serbia, Germany and Ghana were drawn, if the game ends according to the current score, then whether the Chinese team wins the game or not, it will be the first place in the group, and it will meet England, one of the favorites in the 1/8 finals.

It's not a good opponent.

Therefore, Gao Hongbo is more willing to meet the American team with a hard fight.

With Germany leading Ghana, another form of exit came to his mind: Germany beat Ghana and China drew with Serbia.

Germany ranked first in the group with six points, and China scored four points to squeeze out Serbia to become second in the group and advance to the round of 16.

In other words, this possibility can allow the Chinese team to reasonably avoid England in the 1/8 finals, what a good wish......

However, how to make the team 'shun lì lose the ball' next is a headache for Gao Hongbo......

He couldn't shout at the players on the field: "Don't defend, let Serbia score!" ”

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, Serbia equalizes the score on the field, but the game is 90 minutes after all, who can control the game perfectly at 1:1?

No one dares to pack a ticket!

Even Gao Hongbo didn't dare to let the team 'concede'.

Not to mention the high risk factor, it is also very likely to be considered by others that the Chinese team is playing match-fixing......

Finally, he sighed and said secretly: "I can only resign myself to fate." ”

※※※

As the game continued, the 62-year-old Serbian head coach Antic stood on the sidelines with his arms around his chest and silver hair, looking very impatient, frequently gesturing to the players on the field to continue pressing forward.

He knew that the score would knock Serbia out of the tournament!

It is necessary to equalise the score in the shortest possible time for the players to have the confidence to overtake the score in the following game time.

However, his impatience was also contagious to the young players on the pitch.

Fortunately, Stankovic has a lot of experience in the big game, and he did not pass the ball forward frequently according to the instructions of head coach Antich, but slowly sent the ball to the front court to organize the attack through guò midfield control.

At this moment, if Antich knew that the head coach of the Chinese team, Gao Hongbo, and the head coach of the German team, Loew, were trying to find a way to make their team the second place in the group, I wonder if they couldn't help but slap the two to death?

It's really a full man who doesn't know how hungry a man is hungry!

Antic was dissatisfied with Stankovic's lack of implementation of his tactics of strengthening forward passing, but he did not express it, Stankovic is the captain of the team, but also the spiritual leader of the team, the number one star, he can only say a few words in private at most, and cannot be angry in person.

However, after a few minutes of the game, Antici also reacted, and the Chinese team, which is now leading by one goal, has no reason to attack with a nest.

Staying in your own half and waiting for the opponent to make a mistake is the best choice!

So there was a plan to defend for a long time, and frequent forward passes didn't change anything.

The score is ahead, the Chinese players on the field are playing with ease, and the Chinese fans in the stands are happy and relieved, especially today's Zhang Linpeng's performance at right back is extremely good!

In the face of Krasic, who played well in the first two group games, he was able to maintain a 100% defensive success rate, which is worth the excitement of all Chinese fans!

"The five-star red flag is beautiful in the wind, and the song of victory is so loud, singing about our dear motherland, and from now on to prosperity, prosperity and strength......"

The Chinese fans in the stands, under the leadership of the 'Dragon Team Fan Club', neatly sang this song "Singing the Motherland" with national characteristics

And there are many fans in front of the TV who hear the neat and familiar tune, and they also subconsciously hum along.

Their idea is the purest, the national team is ahead of the opponent, and they can advance to the top 16 by ending the game with this score, they are happy in their hearts, and there will be no such thought of Gao Hongbo in their minds at all, they will only be happy because of the victory of the national team they support!

A draw against Serbia to avoid mighty England and finish second in the group?

Why?
