The Chinese team attacked, Yang Qin dribbled the ball to the front court as usual, handed it to Zhang Yu as soon as possible, and then quickly pulled the opposing player away to make room for Zhang Yu to play.

Zhang Yu received the ball, and his heart was not very happy, and he secretly said that you can't mix and mix the opponent's defense line first, and then give me the ball. Every time you cross the halfway line, what do you do?

Zhang Yu was still idle and cranky at the moment, obviously despising his opponent and not taking it seriously. After the first eight games, as he became better and better, his fame also grew. Before this game, even the foreign media agreed that Batum was a paple-like Zhang Yu, which made his morale high, and he looked down on Batum who was in the opposite position.

"I'm the number one in the double rankings, even Beasley is not my opponent, this Batum doesn't know where he came from, the number jù is only half of me, and the level of thinking is not high"

This is what Zhang Yu is thinking at the moment......

The player opposite Zhang Yu was originally supposed to be the No. 2 player of the French team, Carmel, who was given information before the game that he was 195cm tall and weighed 200 pounds. The Chinese team guessed before the game that on the defensive end, the French team is likely not to use Carmel to defend Zhang Yu, but to use Batum to defend Zhang Yu in a misplaced position. At this moment, Zhang Yu was holding the ball at the top of the arc, and it was not Carmel who was defending him, but Batum who was replaced by the third position.

Batum's speed and agility are excellent, his height and arm length are 203cm, 6cm taller than Zhang Yu, and his arm span is not inferior. Zhang Yu faced Batum, and there was some pressure on his body alone, and he couldn't restrain his opponent like he did in the previous games.

Zhang Yu dribbled the ball at will, wanting to shake off the opponent with a feint, Batum's spirit was very concentrated, he didn't shake it, he didn't rashly reach out to break the ball, stared at Zhang Yu tightly, and kept a good distance.

Batum's choice is right, Zhang Yu's dribbling seems to be random, and he seems to be able to break the ball if there are flaws, but his basic skills are solid, coupled with his extremely high talent, although his ball control skills have not reached the level of magic at this time, he also has a bit of arbitrary. If Tum robs impulsively, he will be played by Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu dribbled for seven or eight seconds, and found that there was no good chance, and he was not strong, so he dropped the ball directly into the inside.

The interior strength of the French team is not inferior to that of the United States, their combination is more reasonable, and the players are physically better than the American team.

As usual, the U.S. team also has a number of quality players this year who did not accept the invitation to participate in this World Youth Championship. It can be said that the strength of the American team in this World Youth Championships is not particularly strong. Neither of the big forwards Blake Griffin, who is on par with Beasley, nor the point guard Derrick Rose, who is known to be athletic for 20 years, are interested in participating in the World Junior Championships.

French center Akinsa can run and jump, and has a huge defensive range, very similar to the Spanish team's Ibaka. Power forward Kevin Seraphim has plenty of tonnage, strong strength, strong 1-on-1 defense, and does not give the Chinese team a chance to Su Wei, who is also a power-oriented player, under the basket.

The inside line composed of Li Xiaoxu and Su Wei was completely suppressed by the other party, and the Chinese team's first attack did not create a good chance, and the defensive time was almost up before he forced a shot, the shot was missed, and the rebound was easily taken by Serafinka.

Batum is a very low-key player, the attack is not strong, he successfully beat Xu Yong in the last round, and this round of attack is he holding the ball, but he directly handed the ball to the inside line, and finally hit a low jumper by Seraphim.

The Chinese team attacked again, and Zhang Yu signaled Su Wei to come out to block this time. Through Guò Su Wei's blocking, Zhang Yu temporarily got rid of Batum, and then used his increasingly good European step to break through to the basket.

However, getting rid of Batum, to Zhang Yu's surprise, Seraphim, who is 206cm tall and weighs 240 pounds, clings to him, which makes him very surprised, but he didn't expect that with the opponent's obvious strength figure, his steps are unexpectedly flexible.

Zhang Yu held the basketball high, although he hit the horn position, but he was stuck by Seraphim and had no chance to enter the basket for a layup.

Seraphim's block, Batum caught up, and this time it became two people pinching Zhang Yu.

At this moment, Zhang Yu didn't dare to force a breakthrough, he was covered by the two, unless he had a strong body like James, and he had enough strength to lean on the defender and then run it in with his body, otherwise he would lose the basketball by the two. But the two of them were already around at the moment, and there was not much room for passing. In the end, Zhang Yu simply smashed the ball into the opponent's leg, intending to pop the basketball out of bounds. Unexpectedly, the ball did not pop out of bounds, but happened to fall into the hands of Akinsa on the inside, and Zhang Yu contributed a mistake in the opening game.

The Chinese team failed to play twice in a row, Zhang Yu also made a mistake, and more than 5,000 Chinese fans in the stadium were quiet, and they were covered by the cheers of French fans for a while.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Chinese team had to call a timeout first. At this time, there were 5 minutes and 10 seconds left in the game, and the whole Chinese team played sluggishly, only Xu Yongqiang hit the basket and scored two points for a foul.

The score was 8-2, and the French team led by 6 points as soon as they came up.

Zhang Yu was in trouble for those five minutes, facing Batum three times in a row without a score. On two occasions, he relied on blocking and dismantling, although he got rid of Batum, but he was interfered with by Seraphim, an interior player who switched defenses from the opponent, and was pinched without rushing to the basket, and made a mistake without scoring and was covered once.

Li Chunjiang's pause was specifically for Zhang Yu, and he explained to Zhang Yu, who was unhappy: "The other party must have studied our blocking and dismantling, and also studied your playing style." The next time you can't get to the basket, shoot from the middle distance. Remember, don't shoot a three-point if you don't have a good chance. We are now behind, only 2 points, the three-point shot is not very graspable, once we can't shoot and then the opponent counterattacks, the difference will easily be widened, and then it will be difficult for us to play behind. In addition, you must be active when defending, you must first get stuck in the main position when grabbing rebounds, and be fierce when fighting for rebounds! ”

After the pause, the Chinese team replaced Yang Qin, who had done nothing, and replaced Gu Oak, and Zhang Yu moved to the No. 1 position again.

Batum doesn't care what number Zhang Yu plays, and he still defends Zhang Yu in a misplaced position when defending. Su Wei continued to come out to block and dismantle Zhang Yu, but the quality of the dismantling was not good this time, Zhang Yu did not get rid of Batum, and the other party still followed him closely.

Zhang Yu continued to dribble under his crotch to try to shake off the opponent, but Batum concentrated and stood in position without losing his position. Zhang Yu didn't flash a comfortable shooting space, barely pulled out, the basketball smashed out of the basket, and the rebound was obtained by the opponent.

Zhang Yu fell into an embarrassing situation at the moment, that is, his casualness at the beginning, and after guiding Batum successfully defended several times, his confidence increased greatly. After that, both the defensive reaction and the action were more rapid. At this time, he had already focused his attention and did not underestimate his opponent anymore, but he still couldn't break through Batum smoothly. Zhang Yu regretted it at this time, sometimes it is not easy to get nervous when he relaxes too much. What's worse is that the series of failures made him extremely poor and stiff. For a while, he didn't have anything to do with Batum

France attacked, and the direction of their attack was concentrated on the inside.

Seraphim was clearly underrated before, and the French power forward was very active in defensive pick-and-rolls, always using agile footwork and movement that did not match his size to block the breakthrough line of the opposing ball-handler in time, and then wait for his own defender to be in place before returning to his original defensive position. Seraphim is not only excellent defensively, but also has a certain ability to score in the low post, knowing how to use his body and simple foot movement to score. In addition, Seraphim also has a low post inside turn hook, and the mid-range shot near the box also has a certain level, which is a rare interior player who can do this at this age.

The French team's attack this time was that Seraphim blocked the point guard and hit the ball near the free throw line.

10-2, the Chinese team is already 8 points behind. Li Chunjiang was anxious off the field, the Chinese team had just called a timeout, and they couldn't call it again, so they could only rely on the efforts of the players on the field.

At this time, Zhang Yu, as the team's number one star, must stand up and score.

However, Batum once again stood in front of Zhang Yu, seeing that his team was beaten 10-2, Zhang Yu was also anxious at the moment. This time, he used a concealed elbow swing to push through Batum's defense and rushed to the basket, and under the sandwich of the French team's centers Akinsa and Batum one after another, he forced himself to jump, relying on his excellent ability to stay in the air, found a gap in the air, and reluctantly threw the ball in the direction of the basket......

French center Aginsa is not bad at bouncing and staying in the air, Zhang Yu's ball is too reluctant, although the basketball is not covered, but it is interfered by the two and smashes it on the basket and bounces out.

"Toot ......!"

Fortunately, the referee blew the whistle at this time, and ruled that Akinsa had intrusive action under the basket.

Zhang Yu exhaled lightly, this whistle was too timely.

Soon, the big screen at the scene played back the slow motion of the scene just now, and after repeated adjustments from several angles, everyone found that this penalty was actually debatable, and the foul on Akinsa was actually a bit reluctant.

The French fans have already started scolding, shouting to the offfield: "Star whistle...... Black Whistle ......! ”

"Black whistle, your sister!"

Zhang Yu, who missed the first penalty, scolded fiercely in his heart!

Fortunately, the second free throw was not missed, Zhang Yu took a few deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and shot the second free throw, otherwise the French fans on the scene and in front of the TV would really laugh off their big teeth.

After Zhang Yu finished the free throw, his eyes were fixed on Batum when he returned to defense, his face was not very good-looking, and his eyes were naturally not much better.

This player, who originally didn't look at him in his eyes, actually caused him such a ** annoyance, and the proud Zhang Yu felt that his face was already a little hot for his expression so far.
