The referee's celebration was finally over, and even Mr. Eriksen, who was surprised by the suddenness of the goal, did not expect his side to take the lead so early.

Most of the English players on the pitch are under the age of 25, just like Leeds United, who are known as the youth army, and most of the young players are good at playing tailwind, which means that they can play 100 per cent or more when the game goes well, but if it is a headwind, it will be the opposite. Therefore, Eriksen, who has always been calm, felt that this game might be another big victory.

However, in the following time, he immediately changed this view, and after the restart, England were about to press again, but they found that Croatia actually put on a confrontational posture, and the action was also much rougher, obviously they were not willing to fail like this. England's interim captain on the pitch, Phil. Neville immediately called on his team-mates to step up defensively, and if they were easily equalised, it would be a bad situation.

Croatia is by no means a fish bag team, although Suker, Boksic, Prosineski, etc. faded out, so that the Croatia that won the third place in the 98 World Cup seems to have disappeared from people's sight, but Baric, who has a very rich coaching experience, brought the Croatian team back out of the trough, and the 442 tactics he advocated kneaded kneaded the team into a whole, which has been vividly demonstrated in the qualifiers.

"Allen, you stay near the halfway line, make tackles when you get the chance, wait to counter-attack." Taking advantage of the time of the sideline ball, Phil. Neville confessed to Wang Lidao.

"Okay, Captain!" Wang Li replied with a smile, Phil was comfortable by the captain's call, he felt that this kid was really good, no wonder he was so popular.

The fans in the audience kept shouting to cheer for the England team, but the situation on the field repeatedly shocked them.

During this time, Croatia seemed to go crazy, constantly attacking England from both wings, and the ball kept flying around England's half, and if it continued like this, sooner or later they would concede.

Wang Li knew that he might have to do something, he kept running back and forth near the halfway line, trying to create opportunities to steal and counterattack, but after grabbing a few times, he was directly countered back, which made him deeply admire the spirit of the Croatian players, this is the real effort to play, they seem to do whatever it takes to win, this kind of seriousness is simply not comparable to the 'idle' England players.

It was the third time in 10 minutes that No.20 Giovanni Rosso broke down the right flank, and it seems that the 32-year-old is still fit, which even reminds fans of United's king of the left wing, the kind of powerful veterans who are worthy of respect. Facing Brigi's defense, Rosso shook Brigi in a disguised way to the left in a quick dribble, and then crossed directly on the right side of the penalty area.

At this time, the crowd in the England team's big penalty area was dense and chaotic, and Rooney, who relied on his physical advantage, pushed the ball out of the penalty area directly and flew in the direction of Dyer, and Croatia's midfielder Tudor was next to him, Dyer was only 1.74 meters tall, not tall, but he still leaned on Tudor with a flexible body, just when he was facing the ball on his chest, and when the ball just landed, Tudor directly stretched out his foot to pick up under the ball, and after the ball flew up, it smashed directly on Dyer's arm.

The referee signalled a timeout for a "beep ......" and awarded Croatia a set-piece.

"Watch out for their sneak attacks!" Wang Li stood on the left side of his big penalty area, waved his hand at his teammates and said that he had attacked the opponent one of them, and maybe Croatia wanted to kick back. However, the eyes of the teammates who came back were disdainful, they didn't think that among the Croatian players, there would be a pervert like Wang Li, a shot of more than 40 meters, what kind of joke!

The goal is more than 40 meters away, and it is indeed not very suitable for a direct goal. Under Neville's command, Rooney and Carragher were only symbolically lined up in a two-man flesh wall, with their hands crossed under them, and it seemed that they were both skeptical of the Croatian players' footwork.

At this time, most of the players were concentrated in front of the England team, and it seemed that the Croatian team was ready to grab the point. Left winger Rapajic stood in front of the ball and, after two steps, whipped in a free-kick that flew towards the back of the penalty area, where Ashley. Korr and Zivkovic are battling for position.

Zivkovic is one of Croatia's few defenders with outstanding offensive ability, he constantly squeezes Cole with his body, and small movements continue, Cole is under his pressure, did not stand in a good position, Zivkovic received the ball, he turned around and was about to volley directly, Cole behind him had no choice but to swing his legs at the ball, he was unstable at this time, he couldn't clear the ball at all, but the ball flew towards his goal.

Luckily, the ball was reacted quickly by Phil. Neville used his body to block the six-yard box, but it didn't end because the ball was at the feet of No. 9 Poolau again! After receiving the ball, Croatia's first striker hit the goal directly, Robinson was just a symbolic block, and the ball flew over his head and into the net, and the score became 1-1.

Seeing the goal, Wang Li walked to Ashley. Next to Cole, he waved his hand helplessly, "I'm going to the middle line, it seems that the opponent's attack is very fierce, and if there is a ball, try to drive forward as much as possible." 'In the team, in a couple of defenders on the pitch, he and Ashley. The relationship between Cole and Bridget is still good.

"Just wait, Alan, let them see how fast you are!" Bridget interjected.

"**, you kid still has the face to say, just now you have been connected by that 'wizard uncle' so many times, you really have you." Seeing Bridget, Cole immediately sarcastically said.

'Uncle Wizard? Wang Li didn't react for a while, but he thought it was funny, the Y-shaped eyebrows of Croatia's No. 20 look really strange and the eternal dead man's eyes made people feel strange when they looked at it.

"Wait and see, I'll score a goal for you to see!" Bridget, who was despised by Cole, said with some shame, it seems that this big pervert is not so thick-skinned.

"Come on! England! ”

After Croatia's goal, most of the fans in the crowd were a little disappointed, but after a while, when the game restarted, they were in good spirits again, shouting and cheering for England, and in this atmosphere, even the usually calm Rita stood up and shouted a few words, and she even felt very comfortable venting like this once in a while.

The Croatian team seemed to have found a way to deal with the England team, they launched a ferocious counterattack again, wave after wave, the English players had no time to attack, the ball was always in the England team's half, the fans in the audience were nervous and almost out of breath, they stared at the form on the field, gritted their teeth one by one, and prayed for the team with their hands on their chests.

Eriksen, who was on the sidelines, also frowned and watched carefully, he was not worried about the outcome of this game. Before he took charge of this team, he couldn't understand why the team had so many stars and poor results. But now he knows that the team's poor results are due to England's immaturity. To put it simply, when the score is behind, the players will be discouraged and lost, and when they are ahead, they will be easily satisfied, even arrogant.

It's a matter of team inheritance, and it's also a matter of the atmosphere of English football as a whole, but it's hard to change, so he hasn't been able to find a better way to solve it, and in his opinion, it can only be improved in the growth of stars in an era.

In the attacking frenzy of Croatia, few people noticed that Wang Li was standing near the halfway line and did not participate in the defense at all. A few Croatian defenders next to him also noticed him, but they obviously didn't pay attention to it, because of the situation on the field, they mostly focused on the team's attack, as for the England team's counterattack? What are you kidding, what's the use of him alone, but the middle line is not in front of the goal, can he still shoot here?

Of course, under the spread of Cole and Bridget, England's defenders have noticed. They know that Wang Li's characteristics are fast and good technique, so they are always ready to grab the ball and play a quick counterattack.

Although the offense is the best defense, but too much attack is also easier to reveal flaws, in the continuous attack, there will always be mistakes, this time it was the turn of Croatia's veteran Giovanni Rosso, when he received the ball on the right side, he stopped the ball and made a mistake, and Brigi easily got the ball!

Without even thinking about it, Bridget stabbed the ball to the interim captain next to him, Phil. Neville, after Phil got the ball, he made a long pass, and the ball flew to the front.

Wang Li has been waiting for a long time!

"Come on, Alan! Counterattack! "On the football field, the transition between attack and defense is very fast, just now the fans were still worried about the England goal, in the blink of an eye, they immediately realized that the ball had reached the Croatian half, and the crowd in the audience stood up and cheered, and they shouted and cheered for the brunette boy who was chasing the ball on the field!

At this time, the on-site commentator also stopped explaining, because the situation on the field had made him nervous and speechless, the speed of the black-haired boy was too fast, and he couldn't think of any words to describe it for a while.

At lightning speed?

Running away?

Do these words really sum up comprehensively?
