Chapter 102: Advance Qualification

In addition, there is another very important reason for Gao Jun's progress, that is, he was too young at the time of the World Junior Championships, and his thin and short body strictly restrained his swing, so Gao Jun at that time was far from wielding his true strength. Although the current Gao Jun is still suffering from physical losses, his height has reached 1.76 meters, and his body is not too thin, and the gap in strength between him and his opponent is far less exaggerated than in the World Junior Championships, so he dares to break through with the ball, and he has enough explosive power to complete those difficult shots

Seeing this, the experienced Gao Jun immediately changed his strategy and began to retreat or pull the side to involve the opponent's defense, successfully opening up a large number of gaps, and the result was not only the dribbling of Artemisia Junmin, who has always been excellent, Yu Hai and Xue Lin were also able to easily break into the lethal area to shoot or pass, and the "Oriental Foursome" in the front court of the Chinese youth team The tacit and smooth passing and cutting cooperation between them continued to tear apart the Nigerian team's defense, which was already chaotic, and made the Nigerian team's goalkeeper loud.

In the 22nd minute of the second half, Yu Lin pulled to the right side and made a cross to the bottom, and Yu Hai, who made up for it in the middle, hit the goal with a hammer, which was saved by the excellent Nigerian goalkeeper in this game, but Gao Jun used his unparalleled initiation to get rid of the opponent's marking at that moment, and stretched out a kick to make up the ball into the net, rewriting the score on the field to 4:1, and this goal basically laid the victory of the Chinese team in this game.

Yu Hai Lion shook his head, the ball was saved by the goalkeeper, Gao Jun made up the shot, and the ball went in! The Chinese team's lead has expanded to three goals, and we have won this game! Huang Jianxiang was excited, but also completely relaxed, and even began to have time to joke with Gao Jun, "Judging from this goal, although Gao Jun's personal ability has improved and he is no longer completely dependent on the support of his teammates as before, his best skill in picking up leaks has not regressed!" ”

The morale of Nigeria, which was three goals behind, was obviously low, and even Mikel, who had strong individual ability, lost his sharpness at the beginning because of his isolation, and the youth team slowed down the pace of the game in order to save his body to cope with the next game, but in the 81st minute, Gao Jun still used his excellent off-ball running and the discouragement of the Nigerian defenders to get an open shot in the penalty area and easily hit the dead corner. The result of this game was also finalized as 5:1, which few people expected before the game

In this game, Gao Jun not only completed a hat-trick, but also contributed a beautiful assist, undoubtedly the biggest contributor to the victory of the youth team in this game, and he was unsurprisingly voted the best of the match again after the game. In addition, the perfect table of 4 goals and 3 assists in two games, and leading the team to win both games, also made Gao Jun a strong contender for the best player in this World Youth Championship, and in the scorer list, Gao Jun successfully jumped to the first place, even the already famous Barcelona striker Messi can only bow down and look up

What many people didn't expect was that Gao Jun, who has always been considered a pure shooter, is now tied with teammate Yu Hai for the assist list of this World Youth Championships, which fully shows that with the strengthening of containment ability, Gao Jun's broad vision and passing intuition also have more room to wield.

Seeing Gao Jun's excellent performance, Steve Raleigh was naturally extremely happy, but Wenger, who was far away in London, began to regret that he did not try to persuade Gao Jun to join as soon as possible, if Gao Jun continued his hot state, then after the World Youth Championships, it will definitely attract the covetousness of many giants, even if the Arsenal team can still sign it, the price it needs to pay will definitely be much greater than he expected, which has always advocated "spending little money, doing big things." "For the Arsenal club, it's quite a frustrating thing

And now Arsenal doesn't even have the opportunity to "make amends", because Gao Jun is fully committed to the game and will not think about anything other than playing, and he doesn't even have an agent now, so even if Arsenal wants to sign Gao Jun as much as possible, they can only wait until after the World Youth Championships to talk about it, but it will be too late at that time

Gao Jun was relaxed at this time, because in a game that had ended before, the Brazilian team in the same group defeated the Swiss team 1:o, so after the Chinese youth team defeated the Nigerian team to win two consecutive victories, they not only continued to top the group, but also had the right to qualify for the group in advance.

Brazil are second in the group with four points from one win and one draw, and they are still in their own hands, as long as they beat or draw China in their final game, they can guarantee qualification, the difference is that a win will qualify for first place, and a draw will lead to second place. Switzerland and Nigeria can only hope that China will beat Brazil and then win the final game of life and death to have a chance of qualifying. Therefore, after the second round, the managers of these two teams invariably put pressure on the Chinese team through the media, hoping that the Chinese team can show due sportsmanship and go all out to beat Brazil in the final game of the group stage

Although the South Korean team failed to win all three games like the Chinese youth team in history, it still won the first place in the group by relying on the record of two wins and one draw, so that no matter what the result of the battle between China and Pakistan is, the South Korean team will not meet the Chinese team in the quarterfinals, but the second place in that group, the Ukrainian team, will play against the second place in Group F. Syria, on the other hand, will face the winners of Group F in the quarter-finals after finishing second in their group. The last game of the Japanese youth team was played at the same time as the battle between China and Brazil, but the opponent was Australia, which was almost the same strength, and the probability of winning the qualification was still relatively high, and even if it could not be won, the Japanese team also hoped to enter the round of 16 as the third place in the group with better results (a total of six groups, sixteen teams qualified, four of which were third in the group). )

The strength of the Ukrainian team is not strong, let alone the defeat of the Syrian team in the Asian Youth Championship, so regardless of the outcome of the battle between China and Pakistan, the chances of the Chinese youth team passing the quarterfinals are quite good. In this way, the final match of the group stage has become a pure battle of honor for the Chinese youth team.
