Chapter 441: The Runaway Galloping Horse
Xu Yangyi's opening goal made the Frenchman, who originally despised him, finally have to draw attention. The young captain of Borussia Dortmund seems to have some special ability to reduce his presence. can always make the opponent suddenly contempt when he sees himself. Although he has also won a lot of honors in Europe, his popularity has always been inferior to teammates such as He Xu and Chen Bo, who are also strikers, and even Jing Yu, who is only a substitute in Real Madrid, is not as good. However, no one can deny his outstanding offensive ability, except for personal breakthroughs, the rest are not inferior to He Xu and Chen Bo, the two talented forwards. China's No. 11 has already made many opponents nervous......
"We see, the Frenchman must not have expected the game to be like this! The time has come to test Didier Deschamps, but I kind of hope he won't pass the test, isn't that a bit unsportsmanlike? ”
Although the French team was caught off guard, it was a veteran powerhouse that had won the World Cup after all, and it did not change its established tactics and rhythm of the game because of this. Guided by Cabaye and Pogba's passes, the team continued to play at their usual pace and pace. did not fall into the trap of the Chinese team......
Xu Yang, who scored a goal, received a very different treatment than before, and Koscielny, who knew that he couldn't prevent He Xu, took the initiative to ask to come over and give Xu Yang a little special "care". When Varane was in Real Madrid before, he was a little dissatisfied with He Xu because of Benzema, but this time he was a little happy to let himself be in charge of staring at He Xu. Wait! I'm going to make you a good fool of yourself! Chinese......
He Xu doesn't know what Varane thinks at the moment, he is just doing what he has to do on the field. Waiting for Li Bo or Liang Zhao's sudden long pass. Anyway, we are leading now, and if you are not in a hurry, we will not be in a hurry.
"The French team seemed indifferent after falling behind, did they think that the goal just happened in the warm-up?" Regarding the calmness of the French team at this time, Duan Xian said that he didn't understand, could it be that they were so confident in their own strength? Don't you feel anxious at all? The clock just ticked by, and the players and fans of both teams had their own agendas. Pogba and Matuidi teamed up in midfield to strangle Liang Zhao.
Liang Zhao himself is not a strong player, and when he faced these two strong guys, he only felt that the pressure was greater. If Tang Lintian's kid is there. You won't be able to catch up with him!
Liang Zhao struggled to protect the ball. Turning around and squeezing away the dwarf Matuidi, Pogba didn't stretch his feet and quickly forward.
In the positional warfare attack, the Chinese team's midfield does not have any advantage. After all, Liang Zhao's skills are good. But the speed is not fast and the body is thin. It's easy to be watched by Pogba and Matuidi. Fortunately, there is also Li Bo who assists in forward pressure from time to time. Otherwise, it would be a little too difficult for Liang Zhao to deal with these two guys alone.
"We see that the Chinese team relied on the goal to maintain the lead, and the French team's defense is very scientific. is to limit your offensive core, Liang Zhao is very dead, and there is almost no chance to pass the ball forward. ”
France's attack was actually very threatening, and Cabaye could often be seen tucking the ball forward at a very strange angle, while Benzema, who received the ball, would occasionally finish a shot, although his shot looked unthreatening under the interference of the Chinese players. Every time, Hu Feng easily took it off and held it in his arms.
Football just flew around the pitch and it didn't look like anything to catch the eye.
"This game, apart from the goal at the beginning, was very boring." Duan Xian said this, he didn't expect that the French team, which had won all three games in the group stage, would become so ...... Mediocre.
Varane still haunted He Xu, whether He Xu was in the box or retreated outside the box. He Xu has long been accustomed to this kind of defense, after all, he is facing such a stubborn defense in every game now.
Franck Ribery, who has been doing little on the wing, sees the team's difficulties, and as captain of the team, the armband is more than just an ornament. There are a lot of responsibilities and obligations that come with that, just like now.
Unfortunately, just as Ribery controlled the ball at his feet and cut into the penalty area, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Frank, is the offseason still enjoyable?" ”
The first moment Yang Ruiqi got rid of Zhang Dele in Ribery, he had already made up for it in one step, and his movements were dizzying. Unsuspected, Ribery almost plunged headlong into Yang Ruiqi's arms, who just squeezed him aside and then controlled the ball at his feet. At the moment when he was about to clear the siege with a big foot, Benzema, who was still in the penalty area just now, didn't know when he dangled in front of him, and stretched out his foot to poke the ball from Yang Ruiqi's feet!
Yang Ruiqi closed his foot in time, only to control his leg and not let himself kick in the air, and Ben Mo, who had broken the ball, had already entered the Chinese team's penalty area at this time.
"Ribery's ball is broken, oops! The ball was broken back by Benzema! ”
Just as Zhang Lu said this, the football had already been kicked towards the goal by Benzema, and the shot was not a big deal. But...... As a man who often only needs to push, Benzema actually came to shoot with a curling ball in the penalty area, which caught Hu Feng, who has a strong ability to predict and relies on prediction to make moves, off guard. He had already pounced on the bottom corner of the near end according to his prediction, and who knew that Benzema actually rubbed the ball into the top corner of the far end. These are the two most distant positions in the goal......
Chen Boyan, who was chasing back in time, tried to push the ball out of the goal before the football went in, but unfortunately he was still a step too slow, and his head almost hit the corner of the post and the crossbar. The soccer ball just crashed into the net.
Deschamps cheered, beautiful! That's how it should be, it won't be my number 10! A great shot......
Hu Feng, who fell to the ground, waved his hand fiercely and slapped the ground in front of him, and then quickly got up.
"Ball...... The ball is in! Benzema scored the ball into the Chinese team's goal! In the twenty-seventh minute of the first half, the two teams were back on the same running line again, and the score was 1-1......"
"Ahh This goal has to be at least 70% lucky, and I can guarantee that Benzema will definitely kick the boccia! When standing in the middle circle, He Xu said to Xu Yang.
For the sudden outburst of Benzema, who was unknown before, the entire Chinese team was caught off guard by him. The 1-1 score doesn't seem secure at all, after all, the French national team is still sitting on the bench with strong players such as Mane and Nasri.
After He Xu kicked off with Xu Yang, the football was still handed over to the feet of captain Liang Zhao. Liang Zhao was already a little anxious in the face of Pogba and Matuidi's defense. It's hard to imagine a player like Liang Zhao who can also have a time of anxiety.
Liang Zhao leaned on Pogba who tried to grab with his back, and this ball protection was really difficult. After all, Pogba has a height advantage, and he can rely on his long legs to interfere with Liang Zhao's ball control from behind.
The three central midfielders of the Chinese team were asked by Liang Yuan before the game that all they needed to do was to destroy endlessly, do everything possible to disrupt the French team's attack, and not let Cabaye organize a reasonable attack.
So far, they have been successful, but they have forgotten that apart from Cabaye, there are too many people in France's central midfield who can pass and assist. Antoine Griezmann, who plays for Real Sociedad, did not appear to have made any threatening attacks in this game, but that is not a reason for the Chinese players to ignore him.
After being restrained by Libo, Cabaye, who had no way to pass the ball to the frontcourt, coldly pulled the ball back, and then stretched out his foot and kicked the ball to the feet of Griezmann on the wing. The young Frenchman was facing Cui Jiantao on the wing, and this was the first time the two men had met each other, after all, Real Sociedad had too few opportunities to appear on the European stage.
Griezmann's speed was very fast, and the moment Cui Jiantao grabbed it, he played a crotch-piercing pass. This naturally made Cui Jiantao feel very faceless on his face, so he aimed at the angle, put a shovel from behind, and shoveled Griezmann out of the sideline with the ball.
The referee looked at Cui Jiantao's movements, and just waved his hand and motioned for the French team to send a throw-in. This made Deschamps very dissatisfied, but there was no way, who made the family the referee? You have to obey him.
Benzema's sudden rampage saved the French team from danger, and the score remained 1-1 until halftime. When he walked off the field, He Xu only felt that his jersey that was soaked during the warm-up seemed to be dry now.
Yes, in the first half, except for the ball that Xu Yang assisted, he almost didn't touch the ball a few times, and he didn't have any decent offense, no wonder he stood on the court later, and he felt a little unable to resist the slight coolness of the night. It must be that I am physically moving too little.
After returning to the dressing room, Liang Yuan first comforted his players, saying that they had done a very good job with the opening goal, and then made new demands on them. There are some requirements that don't need to be mentioned by the coach, and there are some changes that they should be able to do on their own. At least in the face of Benzema, who suddenly went berserk, the players can't be indifferent...... (To be continued......)
