Chapter 132: Never Give Up!
After a short five-minute break, the game of extra time officially began!
At the beginning of extra time, the Brazilian youth team did not press directly on the attack, they still chose to continue to solidify their backline.
The Chinese youth team still occupies the initiative on the field, but their attack is the same as in the last ten minutes of the second half, and they have never been able to threaten the goal of the Brazilian youth team.
In terms of attacking opportunities, the Chinese youth team created fewer chances in extra time, and their attacking players seemed to be a little weak and could not give the Brazilian youth team enough impact on the goal.
As the extra-time progressed, the Brazilian youth team gradually organized a counter-attack, and their first attacking opportunity almost broke the goal of the Chinese youth team.
It was an opportunity for a quick counterattack, Ronaldinho ran to the front of the penalty area of the Chinese youth team with flying speed, and then he did not choose to continue to break through, but suddenly shot a cold arrow!
"Long shot!! Ronaldinho's long-range shot from outside the box almost broke the goal of the Chinese youth team, and the defenders of the Chinese youth team were a little lax, how could they give Ronaldinho such an opportunity in this position. There is a commentator in the commentary seat who still supports the Chinese youth team.
"It's so dangerous, fortunately, Ronaldinho's shot is slightly wide of the goal, otherwise the Chinese youth team would have fallen behind again." Another commentator who supported the Chinese youth team took a deep breath, and when Ronaldinho hit the goal, his heart instantly rose to his throat. He was relieved until he saw that the football had missed.
Unlike the commentators who supported the Chinese youth team, the commentators from Europe and South America expressed great regret.
"It's a pity, such a good opportunity, Ronaldinho actually missed, as long as the football is ten centimeters closer to the goal, it is estimated that it will break the goal of the Chinese youth team."
"But fortunately, from this counterattack, we have seen the resurgence of the Brazilian youth team, and they are more hopeful of winning the game in extra-time."
"Compared to them. The players of the Chinese youth team are demoralized. Their successive bombardments in the second half failed to break the Brazilian youth team's goal for the third time, which left them with a sense of exhaustion inside. ”
"The current Chinese youth team as a whole is relatively lax, and their physical exertion is greater than that of the players of the Brazilian youth team." The commentators who supported Brazil's youth team were very happy, even though Ronaldinho's shot failed to complete the goal. But they still see hope for the Brazilian youth team to win!
Meanwhile. The stands are also lively again. The emotions of the Brazilian fans were fully mobilized in Ronaldinho's solo performance. Instead of dwelling on the two goals they conceded in the second half, they threw themselves into cheering for Brazil's youth team.
The game isn't over yet, and it's definitely not a good time for Brazilian fans to get tangled. They still chose to continue to cheer for the team very sensibly.
Because nothing is more important than winning a game. What if the goalkeeper of the Brazilian youth team made a mistake? Nothing was won and it was important to qualify for the final.
The Brazilian fans are still aware of this, although they still blame the goalkeeper of the Brazilian youth team, and they feel that if the goalkeeper does not make that mistake, the game may have been over, and the Brazilian youth team may have been preparing for the final.
However, it is pointless to blame the goalkeeper of the Brazilian youth team, and since the game has entered the extra time stage, it is better to support the Brazilian youth team and let them win this game!
There were cheers in the stands, and the fans saw Ronaldinho's wonderful performance, as if they were resurrected, and they cheered for the Brazilian youth team with great energy, and at the same time brought pressure to the Chinese youth team.
This kind of pressure, the Chinese youth team has experienced more than once in the previous 90 minutes of the game, and if it was in the second half of the game, this pressure would not have had much impact on them, because they were fighting high at that time.
But now, in extra time, hearing the cheers of the Brazilian fans again, the players of the Chinese youth team instantly felt that they were back in the first half of the game, and they felt that the Chinese youth team had no hope of defeating the opponent in this game.
As soon as hope was lost, confidence was lost, and the Chinese youth team collapsed instantly. With just five minutes of extra time, the Chinese youth team had no intention of attacking, their lineup began to shrink rapidly, and most of the players returned to their own half.
The Chinese youth team pinned their hopes on defense and on the penalty shootout.
Now, it seems that they have the slightest chance of advancing to the final only by dragging the game into a penalty shootout.
It's a similar idea to the Brazilian youth team players in the second half, but now the situation on the pitch has been completely reversed and the mentality of the players has been completely reversed.
"The cheers of the Brazilian fans resounded in the stands, they regained their enthusiasm and they sounded the horn of the Brazilian youth team's counterattack!"
In the second half, the Chinese youth team dominated the field, but in extra time, the Brazilian youth team took this advantage back. Now, it's their turn to storm their opponents' goals! The commentator listened to the cheers in the stands, and his heart was also boiling, and he looked forward to the next game, the Brazilian youth team could completely solve the Chinese youth team!
I have to say that the Chinese youth team is a very difficult opponent, they were able to score two goals in a row to equalize the score when they fell behind 0:2 in the first half.
At one point in the final stages of the second half, they even had a chance to beat the Brazilian youth team!
It's a pity that the game was successfully dragged into extra time by the Brazilian youth team, and in extra time, the Brazilian youth team also regained the initiative on the field.
Everything seems to be moving in Brazil's favour......
In the commentary seats, and in the media seats. Some pessimistic commentators and reporters have already begun to read eulogies for the Chinese youth team.
"The Chinese youth team has lost the opportunity to eliminate the Brazilian youth team at the end of the 90-minute game, their physical strength is too much in the second half of the game, and their fighting spirit is too much in the second half of the game......
"Extra time is no longer a stage for the Chinese youth team, and the World Youth Championships will no longer be a stage for the Chinese youth team. This Chinese youth team has brought us so many fond memories as they made it all the way from the group stage to the final four and fought tenaciously against Brazil in this semi-final match. ”
"At the end of the first half, the Chinese youth team was already 0:2 behind, and at that time, almost everyone thought that the Chinese youth team would stop in the semi-finals. But in the second half of the game, they stood up stubbornly! ”
"This Chinese youth team has the strength of the Brazilian youth team. If they are really eliminated by the Brazilian youth team in this game. I can only say sorry for the Chinese youth team. They didn't lose in terms of strength, they lost in experience, they lost in the disadvantage of playing away......"
This is what the reporters in the media table are talking about, and it is also what the commentators who support the Chinese youth team in the commentary table are saying. They no longer believe that the Chinese youth team can stand up for the second time in extra time. Unless they can drag the game into a penalty shoot-out.
But soon. The dispute over the Brazilian youth team shattered the wish of the Chinese fans of the Chinese youth team.
Eleven minutes into the game, Ronaldinho scored his second goal of the game, also from a free-kick in front. Ronaldinho's direct free-kick went straight to the corner of the Chinese youth team's goal.
The goalkeeper of the Chinese youth team had nothing to do about it, he could only watch as the Chinese youth team's finally equalizing score became backward again......
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!! GOAL! GOAL! GOAL! The South American commentators roared excitedly, and their voices came out of the television and resounded all over the world.
And in the broadcast of Huaxia's game, Huaxia's commentator fell into a deep silence, he didn't say a word, not a word.
He just stared at the football in the goal, his eyes filled with tears.
There was silence for about half a minute, and the fans heard a slight sobbing from the commentator on the television. Fans can imagine that behind the broadcast screen, the commentator may have been crying for a long time.
This Chinese commentator has followed the Chinese youth team all the way, and he has witnessed every game of the Chinese youth team, every goal scored and every goal conceded by the Chinese youth team.
But no goal conceded made him feel more sad than this one, because this goal is likely to be the death knell of the Chinese youth team in this World Youth Championship!
The Chinese fans in the stands covered their lips and chin tightly with one hand, as if they wanted to try their best not to cry, but the wetness in their eyes betrayed their mood at the moment......
In the first half of the game, the Chinese youth team disappointed them, and in the second half of the game, the Chinese youth team also made them passionate, but after entering overtime, the Chinese youth team brought them only despair, only the urging to leave the World Youth Championship stage......
Countless Chinese fans sobbed sadly at this moment, just like their commentators. And in the club where Lin Qi once watched the World Cup match, all the older "fans" couldn't help but sigh.
"That's it, it's another semi-final, the whole Huaxia has worked hard for four years, and there is such an excellent player as Lin Qi, but in the end he can only stop at the semi-finals. Final Four...... Who wants the top four, we sent you to the World Youth Championships to let you win the championship! ”
"But who can blame you if you can't win the championship, the World Youth Championship champion is also the world champion after all, and Chinese football is still too far away from the world championship......" They thought so, their hearts full of helplessness.
As they thought, even if the Chinese youth team only achieved the semi-finals in the World Youth Championships, they will still be the heroes of Chinese football after returning, because in an international competition such as the World Youth Championships, the semi-finals are not easy for Chinese football.
It's just a pity that I can't touch the champion......
When almost all Chinese fans felt that the Chinese youth team had no possibility of advancing to the finals. There are still a few people who are full of hope for the Chinese youth team.
Wang Yi and Wang Zining, the father and daughter, are among these few people, and the two of them set their eyes on Lin Qi's body, the Huaxia Youth Team is collapsing, but as long as Lin Qi has not collapsed, they believe that there is still hope for the Huaxia Youth Team!
Lin Qi is such a person who is good at creating miracles in their hearts, not so much that they believe in the Chinese Youth Team, but that they still firmly believe in Lin Qi.
Wang Yi and Wang Zining's expressions were resolute, as resolute as Lin Qi on the field, but on the other side, An Run, who was also watching the game, was already hysterical.
He yelled at the TV set regardless of his image: Stand up. You cowards! Stand up. The game isn't over yet!
An Run's face had two lines of tears on his face, and he felt the same feelings for the players on the field of the Chinese youth team. Four years ago, he also fell in the semi-finals of the World Junior Championships, and he doesn't want these juniors to repeat his mistakes. I don't want Lin Qi to repeat his mistakes.
An Run is a person with rich feelings. Although he is somewhat conceited. Although he is a bit extreme, in the face of Chinese football, An Run will always be the most staunch participant and supporter. This can be seen in the hysteria he is showing at the moment......
An Run is staring at the players on the field of the Chinese youth team, and all the Chinese players are also staring at the players on the field who are fighting for the country.
But they didn't feel the eyes of the fans, they just stared blankly at the Brazilian youth team players in the frenzied celebration, their eyes full of helplessness.
They want to win, they want to qualify for the final, but they really don't know what to do against a strong Brazilian youth team.
They did their best and in the second half they came close to finishing off Brazil's youth team once and for all.
But the difference is like a chasm that can never be crossed, separating them from the qualification for the finals.
The game went into extra time, and the Chinese youth team was getting farther and farther away from the final of the World Youth Championships......
When the players of the Chinese youth team were helpless, when the Chinese fans were sad for the team, the Brazilian fans had already fallen into madness, and they sang the Brazilian national anthem and the national team anthem loudly to express the excitement in their hearts.
In their opinion, Ronaldinho's goal is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Chinese youth team, and this goal is enough for the Brazilian youth team to successfully get the ticket to the World Youth Championship final!
So they cheered, so they were excited, and no Brazilian fan would pity what happened to the Chinese fans, because they were opponents on the field, and if they didn't knock out their opponents, they would be eliminated.
The football stadium is such a cruel place, and there can only be one winner for both teams. As good as they are, and as good as their players, only one team can win in the end!
The Brazilian fans sang as if they had seen the moment when the team reached the final and lifted the trophy......
In the midst of such cheering, there was an alternative sound on the football field, which was insignificant compared to the cheers of the entire stadium, but it quickly attracted the attention of all the live broadcasters.
It's been a long road, and we're starting from scratch.
The race is hard, and we share the weal and woe.
Victory is our only pursuit.
We are dragons from the East, galloping on the green field.
The Dragon of the East, our dreams, football, our sport.
Dragons, dragons, only want to support you.
Only dreams, no violence.
Dragons, dragons, forever for you.
Pursue victory and never give up.
Lin Qi's lips opened and closed, and he sang the team song of the Chinese national team very seriously - Oriental Dragon!
In the cheers of the Brazilian fans, Lin Qi's singing could not be heard at all, but everyone who saw Lin Qi's lips was as if they could hear this song!
The Oriental Dragon - This song, which has never appeared in the World Youth Championships, was sung by Lin Qi for the first time.
Lin Qi still remembers that at last year's Asian Youth Championships, Huaxia fans could be heard singing this song in almost every game. The Chinese youth team gave the fans too many surprises at the Asian Youth Championships, so they couldn't help but celebrate with the team song of the Chinese national team.
In this year's World Youth Championships, Lin Qi has never heard this melody in the previous games, not only because the number of Chinese fans in the World Youth Championships is not as large as in the Asian Youth Championships, but also because the fans do not have so many surprises about the performance of the Chinese Youth Team, as if the victory of the Chinese Youth Team has become a matter of course, and it seems that even if the Chinese Youth Team loses the game, the fans will not dare to be surprised.
They have no expectations for the Chinese youth team, and they have no passion for the Chinese youth team's journey in the World Youth Championships......
The fans are like this, not to mention the players of the Chinese youth team, Lin Qike still remembers that before the start of the World Youth Championships, the players' goal for the World Youth Championships was that they did not seek the championship, but only wanted to let fans all over the world know that the Chinese Youth Team had been here at the World Youth Championships.
Now that goal has been reached, the players should be satisfied, so they slackened in extra time, so they gave up in extra time.
But Lin Qi hasn't given up yet, he wants to compete for the final championship, he just needs to compete for the final championship!
Lin Qi believes that the physical strength of the players is like milk, there will always be a squeeze, as long as they still want to fight, as long as they still want to fight for the championship, they will not run out of physical strength, and they will not be defeated by the Brazilian youth team!
Therefore, after Lin Qi scored a goal in the Brazilian youth team, he sang a cappella, and all the directors on the scene also pointed the cameras in their hands at Lin Qi.
Looking at Lin Qi singing with his heart on the screen, the fans in front of the TV sang along.
It's been a long road, and we're starting from scratch.
The race is hard, and we share the weal and woe.
Victory is our only pursuit.
We are dragons from the East, galloping on the green field.
The Dragon of the East, our dreams, football, our sport.
Dragons, dragons, only want to support you.
Only dreams, no violence.
Dragons, dragons, forever for you.
Pursue victory and never give up......
Never! Say no! (To be continued......)
