Chapter 508: The First Voice

When the players of both sides came on the field, the TV broadcast camera showed the top stars of the two teams, the Chinese team is Zhou Yi, and the Brazilian team is Neymar. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoZhou Yi is also the captain of the Chinese team, and the captain of the Brazilian team is not Neymar, but Thiago Silva.

Neymar has been famous for a long time, but he has always played in Brazil, and it has long been rumored that he is going to play in Europe, but in the end it is always rumored. A lot of people think that Neymar should go to Europe to play so that he can grow faster. But some people think that Neymar is still young, and going to Europe to play football too early is tantamount to helping the seedlings. Brazil's talents are always eager to go to Europe at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and they do well at first, but when their characteristics are familiarized, when their bodies can't keep up with the demands of European football, their performance is compromised.

The most typical example is striker Pato, who is also in the Brazilian Olympic team. When he first landed in Serie A, he was so impressive that he was considered Kaka's successor, and a world-class superstar was on the rise.

As a result, Pato's performance at AC Milan last season was mediocre. Because his performance at the club was not good enough, he was not even a main player in the Brazilian Olympic team, and could only be used as a substitute.

So whether you should go to Europe early or late, everyone is debating.

Zhou Yi doesn't care which path the future development of young Brazilian players should take. However, he felt that Neymar did have some shortcomings because he had been playing in Brazil.

People only see Neymar's amazing individual skills and speed, but ignore the long-term play in Brazil, which has led to his poor sense of coordination, his habit of eating alone, and his physical confrontation ability is also very poor.

Zhou Yi's physical confrontation ability is not a strong point, but after more than three seasons of training and honing in Europe, it is much better than when he first came to Europe. Now he doesn't get knocked down by his opponents on the court.

But looking at Neymar's skinny legs, it's really worrying that he will break his legs first when he feints......

Perhaps in the eyes of some, the Chinese team will have to pay a very heavy price to beat the Brazilian team, and it will depend on luck. But in Zhou Yi's mind, this game is not so dangerous for the Chinese team.

He has simulated this game many times in the virtual world, and the disadvantage of the Chinese team is not as big as everyone thinks. With the right tactical approach, Brazil is not unbeatable.

When Zhou Yi and Thiago Silva had completed all the pre-match procedures, he returned to his own half, and his teammates were waiting for him, and they formed a circle, which was missing a gap, and when Zhou Yi returned, the gap was filled.

"Okay, they'll kick off first. As soon as he came back, Zhou Yi reported the results of guessing the coin to everyone, and he won the right to pick the edge. 'From the moment they get the ball, we're going to go up and push them and put pressure on them. They're definitely not in the groove at the beginning of the game, they think so highly of themselves that they absolutely look down on us, so they're going to play carelessly. This is our chance. Catch them off guard!"

"Good!" the teammates replied in unison.

Then Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and enlarged it to the middle of the circle, and the others also folded their hands one after another.

"One, two, three!

Everyone shouted in unison.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Chinese team just carried out a simple pre-game cheering ceremony, and it is normal for everyone to form a circle and roar twice before the game, which is not unusual.

And Brazil didn't do this, which may show that the Chinese team must shout two words in the face of Brazil, as a challenger, in order to muster the courage to challenge the powerful Brazil.

When all the Chinese players were in their positions, Brazil's kick-off players had been waiting in the centre circle for a long time.

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins!

"The game is on! Audience friends, welcome to the last semi-final of men's football at this Olympic Games! Against the Chinese Olympic team and the Brazilian Olympic team! In the other semi-final that ended earlier, the Mexican Olympic team from Central and North America lost to the Japanese team with a score of 1:2 and has entered the final ahead of schedule. This game will determine another final spot......" With the referee's whistle, He Ping also began to talk about the explanation.

"On the pitch we wear the red jersey for our Olympic team, while the Brazilian team wears their traditional yellow-green jersey. There were no changes to the starting line-up for this game, and the Chinese team continued their starting ...... in the last game against South Korea."

As he was talking, after the Brazilian team drove the football out on the field, they did not immediately play forward, but chose to pass back.

The Chinese team did not choose to shrink the defense, but bravely followed the football to press out.

In the space of a few passes, the formation of the two sides gradually opened up.

When the Brazilian team fell to the ground, BBC TV commentator Mark Lawrensen was praising the Brazilian team's lineup: "Although the Chinese team is doing very well, and there are as many as five players playing in Europe, but from the perspective of the lineup, I think the Brazilian team is more dominant. To be honest, I think the Chinese team can reach the top four, which is already very good, and it shouldn't be too extravagant. Against a strong Brazil, the Chinese team may suffer some psychological impacts...... Of course, the charm of football lies in its unpredictability......"

Mark Lawrenson's voice did not fall, and at the same time, He Ping was still reporting the starting list of the Chinese team.

The Brazilian players moved their football, which had been on the left wing, to their right.

Right wing-back, Manchester United's Rafael took the ball from his team-mate's other side with ****, but he didn't immediately pass the ball back to him, even though Thiago Silva was just behind him.

But he took control of the football.

This is a change for Brazil, who have been passing the ball non-stop and falling to their feet. And this change was keenly grasped by Zhou Yi.

He immediately waved his arms and shouted to his teammates: "Press up, force him!!"

The closest person to Rafael was Zhang Jiadong, the left midfielder of the Chinese Olympic team, who quickly posted it from behind, but Rafael still did not pass the football out, he was still in possession.

Seeing that he was being targeted, the players of the Brazilian team also came up to meet him.

First, Oscar ran straight back from the front and approached him inside, before Thiago Silva also pulled wide to create an angle for Rafael to pass the ball.

But the Chinese team also immediately made targeted arrangements, and He Ying in front of him followed to the side, stuck between Rafael and Thiago Silva, cutting off Rafael's pass back to Thiago Silva.

At the same time, Zhang Jiadong stepped up the pressure on Rafael behind him, putting huge pressure on him, making it difficult for him to control the football under his feet anymore.

He can only pass the football out there now. But to whom? Thiago Silva was not going to do it, and Rafael caught a glimpse of Oscar who had retreated to the inside to pick him up. The two guys were very close together, which was a good passing option.

So Rafael, under Zhang Jiadong's close pressing, passed the football sideways to the inside, intending to pass it to Oscar.

But at the same time that the football was passed to Oscar, between Rafael and Oscar, a red figure suddenly came out!

It's Zhou Yi!

When Oscar retreated to answer Raphael, no one noticed that Zhou Yi had already accelerated and rushed up, he expected that Rafael would definitely pass the football to Oscar, and he only needed to cut off this passing line at the right time!

Sure enough, he snatched the football away from Oscar first!

When Oscar found out about Zhou Yi, it was too late, and he reached out to pull Zhou Yi, but was squeezed behind by Zhou Yi.

After the steal, Zhou Yi did not continue to dribble the ball, he used his body to temporarily withstand the impact from Oscar, and immediately a kick, and the football was passed to the middle by him!

When the football was just passed by him, he was finally knocked to the ground by Oscar......

※※※

He Ying was in front, and he clearly saw Zhou Yi's movements, and his tacit understanding with Zhou Yi let him know what he should do next - he didn't wait in place, but turned around and ran to the middle at the same time as Zhou Yi intercepted the pass.

Sure enough, as soon as he ran to the middle, Zhou Yi's pass arrived, and if he had been a little late, he would not have received Zhou Yi's ball.

And now...... He received the ball in a completely unguarded situation!

And in front of him was a huge gap between Brazil's two centre-backs and their left wing-back!

Thiago Silva has been pulled to the side in order to receive Rafael, and Juan in the middle naturally has to pull to the ribs to fill Thiago Silva's position, but Brazil's left-back Marcelo did not make up for the penalty area in time and is still in his original position.

I'm afraid he couldn't have imagined that Rafael's side would make a passing mistake and it would hurt him. So it's understandable that he didn't move.

But the result of doing so was a huge gap between Juan Jr. and him. And this vacancy happened to be caught by the Chinese team!

When He Ying received the ball in the middle, Juan Jr. hurriedly went to the middle to fill the position, but it was a little late......

"Look at this ball-He Ying! He received a pass from Zhou Yi, this is a single knife!" He Ping put aside the starting list he was thinking about just now, and shouted excitedly. "Chance!"

In his roar, He Ying took a step forward, just on the line of the big penalty area, Juan Jr. had not yet replayed it, Thiago Silva had just run back to the penalty area, and Marcelo was watching the play from a distance, or he didn't react at all.

On the line of the big forbidden area, He Ying made a decisive move!

The ball sped forward against the turf and was shot into the bottom right corner of the goal.

Brazil's goalkeeper, Gabriel, stood still and didn't even make a save, just turned his head and watched the ball pass him, and then ...... Plunged headlong into the net!

The ball is in!
