Chapter 644: History Created!!
Chapter 644: Making History!!
The game was not until the end of the first half, the score of the two sides was still 0-0, and the South Korean team gradually found their rhythm in the 35th minute of the game, but at this time the time of the first half was running out.
After a fifteen-minute break at halftime, the two sides changed sides and fought again. South Korea made no substitutions, and although their attack didn't open up, their head coach thought it was a matter of time.
Perrin's Chinese team, on the other hand, began to make substitutions just two minutes into the second half, taking advantage of a dead-ball opportunity for the fourth official to hold up a sign.
Down on the tenth, up on the twelfth!!
This substitution surprised everyone, Li Zihan was not surprised when he came on the field, thinking that he was replaced by captain Zheng Zhi!
Although Zheng Zhi is old, he is still conscientious on the court, and he can attack and retreat. It can also motivate teammates, even for physical and tactical reasons, you shouldn't have replaced the captain so early.
Sun Ke and Wu Xi in the midfield are actually the best candidates to be replaced
Captain Zheng Zhi was not surprised by the substitution, he smiled and applauded to thank the fans in the stands, and then trotted off the field.
When handing over to Li Zihan, Zheng Zhi took off the captain's armband on his shoulder again and put it on Li Zihan's shoulder: "Come on, captain!" ”
"No problem, Captain! You'll just wait for the trophy to be lifted. Saying that, Li Zihan quickly rushed into the field.
The camera has been following Li Zihan on the field, and there is no doubt that he is the most famous player in the Asian Cup today.
Then he gave a close-up of the captain Zheng Zhi who was off the field, and the old captain was shaking hands with head coach Perrin with a smile, and he didn't look unpleasant at all.
"Obviously, this is a tactical arrangement that has been premeditated for a long time!" Duan Xuan said.
After coming on the field, Li Zihan did not appear on the left side that he was familiar with, nor did he appear in the forward position, but appeared in the forward position.
Li Zihan also made occasional cameos when he was at Arsenal, but because of the presence of Mesut Ozil, a German talent, and a group of excellent teammates such as Cazorla and Wilshere, he rarely appeared in this position.
After coming on the field, Li Zihan suddenly used his personal ability to turn the South Korean team's backline upside down, and the South Korean team did not expect that the Chinese team would replace Li Zihan at this time.
To be precise, he was completely stunned by the tactics arranged by Peilan, and originally thought that Li Zihan would continue to serve as the core in this game, so he practiced targeted tactics before the game. But they didn't expect to be released by the Chinese team, they never thought that the other party would dare to do this, and let Li Zihan sit on the bench.
And when South Korea was accustomed to the tactics without Li Zihan, Li Zihan suddenly came on the field again, and the Chinese team, which had been actively defending until now, suddenly played a wave of very sharp attacks.
These are all things that the head coach and players of the South Korean team did not expect.
In the end, Li Zihan came on the court to win the first place for the Chinese team after only three minutes, and it was a beautiful individual performance, he received a pass from Sun Ke a little in front of the arc of the center circle, and then did it for Wu Lei to turn and face the attack.
Wu Lei quickly passed the football back, and then Li Zihan opened an uncontrollable rhythm, all the way to the opponent's penalty area line to suppress the opponent's central defender shot.
The ball went straight into the corner very tricky.
After the Chinese team scored, it did not relent, led by Li Zihan to bombard the South Korean team again, and for a while even Sun Xingmin defended to his own 30-yard area.
The head coach of the South Korean team kept shouting from the sidelines, like he wanted the Korean team to hold on.
But those top backlines of the European giants don't have much to do with Li Zihan, can they have?
So when the game came to the 58th minute, the Chinese team, which insisted on attacking for ten minutes, scored another goal.
This goal was not scored by Li Zihan, but by Li Zihan on his own initiative. The off-ball running position of Wu Lei, who had been active before, and Gao Lin, the center forward, suddenly opened the defense of the South Korean team, and Li Zihan took the ball and did not break through by himself, but unexpectedly sent a straight stopper.
Wang Shangyuan, who killed on the side, stepped the ball passed by Li Zihan into the penalty area, and then pulled out his foot and shot angrily, and the football went into the net!
"2 to 0 !!!"
"Winning !!!"
Wang Shangyuan, who scored the goal, rushed up and hugged Li Zihan at the eleventh time.
The two-goal lead for the Chinese team slowed down a bit in the next game, after all, the game was only in the 60th minute, and they didn't want to be overdrawn in less than 90 minutes.
And Peilan also made a second substitution adjustment at this time, and he replaced Sun Ke with Cai Huikang. This is a defensive signal, after all, after Zheng Zhi left the field, the Chinese team's midfield interception ability has decreased a lot, only Wu Xi is a cameo, and the others are almost all attacking players.
The suppressive attack of the Chinese team in front of him will not be able to find the North of the South Korean team, otherwise if the South Korean team launches a ruthless attack, this is a weakness.
And now the South Korean team, which has been forced to do so desperately, must strengthen the defense in the midfield and backfield.
Cai Huikang's defense is very fierce, his body is very good, although his appearance is not high, but his defensive ability is still very good, and his sense of filling is excellent.
As soon as he came on the court, he used a very wonderful tackle to bring down Ji Chengyong and counterattack after taking the ball.
South Korea felt that it was time to defend themselves, so they immediately made substitutions. Remove a midfielder and replace it with a striker.
Striker Goo Ji-cheol, who also plays for Mainz in the Bundesliga, plays!
However, this result did not bring much change, although the attack was impressive, it still did not blast the Chinese team's goal.
Under the command of Perran, the first task of the Chinese team now is to defend and counterattack, even the center Gao Lin has returned, and only one Li Zihan with lightning speed that can not be prevented by European giants is left in the frontcourt.
When the game came to the 75th minute, Perrin made another substitution.
This is his last substitution in this game, and he simply replaced the center Gao Lin directly and sent Liu Jianye as the back.
This is another signal to strengthen the defense
Finally, when the game came to the 82nd minute, everyone knew that the game was out of action for the South Korean team, because they could not score two goals in the last 10 minutes to drag the game into extra time.
However, at the eighty-five minute mark, Li Zihan once again sprinkled salt on their wounds.
The Chinese team, which strengthened the defense, made it rare for the South Korean team to even encounter the front of the goal, and the joint defense of Cai Huikang and Liu Jianye directly cut off the football at Son Heungmin's feet.
Then Wu Lei sent a big foot directly to the frontcourt, which looked like a clearance.
But Li Zihan suddenly started, and completely rushed past the central defender left by the South Korean team with the speed of the wind, and then received the football behind the opponent.
In the end, he used his speed to completely shake off the two central defenders who were chasing back.
"Single Knife !!!"
Fortunately, there was a linesman who was standing in a parallel position to Li Zihan at that time, and he clearly saw that Li Zihan was actually in front of the opponent's central defender when Wu Lei passed, otherwise the ball would probably be blown offside.
Lee Zihan, who was single-handed, easily dribbled past the goalkeeper of the attacking South Korean team, and then scored the ball
"Completely killed a qiē may!!"
"The Chinese team is the champion !!!" At this time, Duan Xuan and they were already celebrating.
And the Chinese fans who came to the scene to watch the game also cried, but this time it was not sad tears, but happy tears.
They finally won the Asian Cup and stood on top of Asia. Of course, they were even more excited to see the changes in the Chinese team.
The South Korean team, which conceded the third goal, suddenly became a deflated ball, and they were so disgraced that the last five minutes of the game became a friendly match, the South Korean team had no desperate intentions, and the Chinese team did not want to continue to fight.
The two sides spent the last five minutes peacefully.
Although three minutes of stoppage time were given, the referee had already seen what both sides were thinking. The Chinese team wants to celebrate the championship with eagerness, while the South Korean team wants to leave this sad land immediately.
So with one minute of stoppage time played, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
"The end of the game !!"
"Champion - Chinese Team !!"
"At this moment, in the land of China, I don't know how many fans cried with joy. Chinese football, which was once so dark that there was no boundary, made us lose hope, but now this Chinese team has told us where we are going, Chinese football for decades has too many tears of fans, and today's tears must be different," Duan Xuan said sensationally.
"They made history!! Li Zihan did not break his promise, before the start of the Asian Cup, he had implicitly stated that his goal was to win the championship, how many people laughed at him at that time? Even our own fans are thinking that Li Zihan has changed, become arrogant, and premature success has blinded him. You must know that football is a sport of eleven people, and no one denies Li Zihan's strength, but the strength of the Chinese team, so everyone thinks that qualifying from the group is the established goal. But what about the Chinese team led by Li Zihan? They finished first in the group with the best record in three matches, then defeated hosts Australia and defeated the United Arab Emirates, which defeated Japan, to meet South Korea in the final. In the end, he used unexpected tactics to win the South Korean team, 3-0, which definitely shows the strength of Li Zihan and the strength of the Chinese team!! ”
Before the game, Li Zihan said that he would lead the Chinese team to create history, and now he has done it!! They made history by winning the first Asian Cup title in the history of the national team!! This Chinese team gives us hope, so I am full of hope for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, maybe this time we can really enter the main match of the World Cup!! ”
