As the game time wore on, Germany's starting goalkeeper Manuel Neuer was the player mentioned the most by the commentators in the commentary booth, and even the number one star on the pitch, Elo, did not have such treatment.

However, fans who are familiar with the game of football know that too much play by the goalkeeper means that the defense of the side is quite worrying, because the opponent's attack is continuous, which will cause the goalkeeper to enter the camera too much.

The German fans in the stands watched the players on the field, and the little heart was constantly pounding, and if the Chinese team scored a goal in one of their attacks, some fans would probably have a heart attack......

To put it bluntly, Neuer's excessive exit made the commentators of German national television feel quite hesitant, but they knew that if this situation was not changed, there would be an unacceptable ending......

In the 16th minute, Iello hit the crossbar with a sudden shot from the edge of the box, and the German national television commentator almost fell backwards, which would have happened 100 per cent had it not been for the backrest of the chair.

The same was true of the German fans in the stands, as if it was not the crossbar that the football hit, but them!

Iro, who didn't score, covered his mouth with a look of regret, because he knew that if this goal was scored, it would mean that the game would be fully under the control of the team, which was really a pity......

Of course, it's just a pity.

Because the second goal of the Chinese team did not wait long, in the 25th minute of the game, Ailo forced an acceleration on the left side to break through the defense of German captain Lahm, and passed a high-quality cross before the football was about to roll off the bottom line, the football bypassed the two tall central defenders of the German team, Hummels and Boateng, and found the center forward Gao Lin with plenty of jumps very accurately, who came with a textbook lion head.

Even though goalkeeper Neuer made a save, he was helpless because of the trickiness of Gao Lin's header, and he could only declare that he was out of reach.

In addition, the football has a bounce ground before entering the net, which indirectly increases the difficulty of his save, and the final goal has little to do with him......

Just over halfway through the first half, the Chinese team took a two-goal lead, a result that was unacceptable to the German fans in the stands, so they remained silent when the huge cheers erupted at the Maracanã Stadium, protesting the German team's performance in a silent way.

Gao Lin, who scored the goal, was quite excited, but he did not choose to celebrate with his teammates at the first time, but ran to the No. 2 stand area, shaking his hands with his body, and celebrating in a lullaby.

It turned out that he gave it to his daughter who had just been born not long ago.

However, like Iello who scored the previous goal, he didn't get much personal time to celebrate, and was dragged to the ground after just two or three seconds.

Some pressed it excitedly, and some slapped their faces and heads affectionately.

The Chinese fans in the stands were even more excited, because this goal meant that the Chinese team would have an easier time for the rest of the game, and the advantage of two goals was comparable to that of one goal......

In stark contrast, the German players on the pitch, Mario Gotze, Muller, and Ozil, who were called the hope of German football by the German media, were in obvious mood, just two words - despair.

That's right!

If the difference of one goal also means that the score can be caught up, then the difference of two goals means that the difficulty factor of equalizing becomes greater, and the Chinese team, which has a two-goal advantage, will likely move the formation back, making more opportunities for counterattacks.

Everyone knows that the Chinese team's counterattack ability is the world's top, and from a certain point of view, the counterattack efficiency is also the world's top.

Because the Chinese team has the strongest individual ability in the world!

The capital of defending and counter-attacking is unmatched by any team.

Therefore, in this situation, the German players on the field have signs of disunity, the front wants to score, and the back wants to make sure that the goal is not conceded again.

It was the German coach Loew who made a quick decision, and immediately made a two-handed downward gesture towards Schweinsteiger, the core of the game control on the field, after noticing the change of players on the field, signaling the team's rhythm to stabilize and all problems to be solved at halftime.

With the passage of time, the mentality of the German players on the field has changed, after all, they all have a wealth of game experience, the players of this German team are basically playing for Bayern Munich and Dortmund in Germany, most of them have participated in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and the final stage of the 2012 European Championship, and the ability to adjust is very good.

Watching the German team gradually return to normal, the head coach of the Chinese team, Pep Guardiola, sighed secretly, he very much hopes that the German team will recklessly invest in the attack when the two goals are behind, then the Chinese team will have more opportunities.

Because...... Captain Iroh's super personal abilities are no joke.

While one or two counter-attacks may not result in a goal, a sustained and quick counter-attack will bring more unimaginable advantages.

It's a pity!

As soon as the first minute of first-half stoppage time was played, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

The players from both sides then walked down the tunnel and into their respective dressing rooms.

Most of the fans in the stands left their seats and went to the shop inside the stadium to sell ingredients, because their crazy shouts in the first half consumed too much energy, and if they were not replenished in time, there was a high chance that the second half would be weak.

※※※

None of the German players who entered the dressing room had a normal face, almost all of them had a straight face, their brows were furrowed, and it was clear that they were extremely unhappy with the score of the first half.

Indeed, it is normal for them to have this kind of thinking.

Since the start of this World Cup, although the German team is not the favorite to win the championship, it has been able to rank in the top five.

If it was the score of the whole game, maybe they could grudgingly accept it, it's normal to lose a game because of the lack of quality, but this score was the result of the first 25 minutes, which is difficult for them to accept.

At this point, the cacophony from the stadium stands came to an abrupt end as the assistant coach closed the locker room door.

The whole locker room was quiet enough that a pin could be heard when it dropped on the floor......

Loew looked up and swept the faces of each player separately, and sighed secretly, he is a headache now, because he has never been a coach who is good at infecting players with some incendiary words, he is more likely to use professional jargon and excellent tactical explanations to make the players fully implement the tactics.
