Chinese The game soon ended with 120 minutes of battle, and the two sides officially entered the penalty shootout. (Please use the pinyin domain name of this site to visit us.)
After 120 minutes, the score was still 2-2 between the two teams, and now it was time for a penalty shootout.
"The Chinese team's results in penalty shootouts have always been not very good, and the Chinese team has a total of 15 penalty shootouts in its history, with three wins and 12 losses......"
"Come here, we have to listen to the arrangement." Zhao Yaning pulled his teammates over. Although he still has some regrets about such a result in his heart, he also knows that when taking penalties, the Chinese team needs to be calm, and at this time, he can't expect more. After all, the opponent is still stronger than the Chinese team, and this result is already good.
At this time, the manager has already made a list of penalties.
Zheng Zhi was the first, Qu Bo was the second, Shao Jiayi was the third, Zhao Yaning was the fourth, and Gao Lin was the fifth.
"We'll try not to drag ourselves into the sixth." The coach spoke.
The players nodded in understanding. After all, most of the defenders of the Chinese national team are not very good at taking penalties, and those who like to take penalties like the Germans are in the minority after all. The more rounds dragged into the match, the more unpredictable the outcome will be for the Chinese team.
"I'm the fourth......" Zhao Yaning still felt a little strange.
Normally, in a penalty shoot-out, the number one star will be placed in the fifth position. After all, by the time it comes to the fifth round, it is almost possible that the winner will be decided by one goal. The better the penalty kicker, the more effective it is for the team to take the penalty at this time.
And even if it's not the ball that decides the outcome of the game, after all, the further back you go, the more pressure the penalty taker will be. And the more pressure you have, the harder it is to kick the penalty well, and to keep the good players behind is also to be more secure.
Zhao Yaning originally thought that he would definitely appear in the fifth position, but at this time, he was placed in the fourth position, which made him a little strange.
Alihan glanced at him, but did not speak. After all, there are some things that are not the right time to say.
The reason why he didn't put Zhao Yaning in the fifth is actually only one most important reason: he was worried that the Chinese team would not be able to hold on to the fifth at all.
But such frustrating words can't be said now.
'Now the two sides are in the penalty zone. The referee tossed a coin, the Ukrainian team punished first, and the Chinese team punished later. What is surprising is that Blokhin has now walked into the locker room, I don't know if he is because he is in the chest, or he can't bear to look at it. ”
Zhao Yaning also saw Blokhin, and he cast an inquiring glance at Shepchenko. Shepchenko shrugged, "Our coach has a heart condition, has had bypass surgery, and is afraid to look at free throws. ”
This answer surprised Zhao Yaning. Why should such a person be a coach? But think about it, Blokhin is a former Soviet star after all, and his position in this position is more symbolic. But now, he is hiding in the locker room, and it is really helpless: if the coach doesn't even dare to look at a penalty, what risk can he take? Retreating at such a time is a big blow to the team's confidence. */.//*
This kind of thing still made Zhao Yaning a little excited, "See, brothers!" Their coach has coaxed! They're all cowardly, if we can't take it anymore, what will happen to us? Kick them out! ”
His words made Liu Yufei smile bitterly, of course it is a good thing that the other party's head coach was scared like this, but Liu Yufei was not easy at all.
"Da Liu, remember my words: the penalty shootout is a bet, if the bet wins, we will win, and if the bet is lost, we will be finished. You go to bet, win, count it as yours, lose it, count it mine. Don't think too much about it, you've done your best. ”
Zhao Yaning's words made Liu Yufei smile, but he still couldn't say anything. How can it be said that it is not nervous?
By this time, Rotan had already walked to the penalty spot. He didn't prepare too much, he got up with his feet, shot the goal, and kicked the ball into the goal!
Liu Yufei didn't even make a save, but only made a symbolic move, and watched the football fly into the gate.
Sure enough, he was too nervous.
On the Chinese team's side, Zheng Zhi also went to the penalty spot. Shuvkovsky, for his part, stood in front of the door.
Run, prepare, shoot!
Zheng Zhi's shot angle was good, and Shuvkovsky judged the right direction. However, he was not able to hold the gate. Zheng Zhi's shot scored the goal, and China also scored a goal.
"The Chinese team caught up 3-3!"
The second penalty was made by Timos Scuk.
At this time, Liu Yufei had settled down a little. However, even so, Zhao Yaning was still nervous: after all, the penalty kick is not as good as playing a game, and its luck component is too great.
Timoschuk kicked out a penalty, this time Liu Yufei still judged the wrong direction, but Timoschuk's shot was still out of the goal!
"Ukraine missed a penalty!"
This penalty also made all Chinese fans cheer - although this is the opponent's own stupidity, it is not easy to make the opponent miss a free throw.
Obviously, the opposing players were frightened by Zhao Yaning's last-minute goal, and this penalty did not come out of the level it should have. After such a shot, the Chinese team has the advantage, and now, the Chinese team may win! ”
At this time, Qu Bo also stood on the penalty spot.
Stand back, prepare, shoot!
The speed of Qu Bo's kick is obviously much faster - Zhao Yaning has heard that in Ligue 1, he is also the club's first penalty taker, and in order to get him a few more goals so that he can attract sponsorship for the team, he has monopolized penalty kicks for a long time. At this time, he clearly did not disappoint. By the time Shuvkovsky pounced, he was already a step too slow. The ball hit the post, and with a soft sound, bounced into the goal!
"The Chinese team is leading 4-3! The Chinese team scored one more penalty! ”
And at this time, the Ukrainian players were gloomy.
Voronin was the third to take the penalty spot, and he made a few urges. Obviously, by this time, the pressure has returned to the Ukrainian team.
Penalty shootouts are inherently quite unreliable. Even world-class goalkeepers rarely perform well in penalty shoot-outs. Even, in some major tournaments, when there is a penalty shootout, the goalkeepers of both sides are world-class, but they don't add up to a single situation where they are right. At this point in the game, it's not a matter of strength, it's a matter of luck. And the less confident the party, the more likely it is to have problems at this time.
Zhao Yaning's bizarre goal, Blokhin's exit, plus missing a goal, Ukraine is already anxious.
It is true that the Chinese team is a little unconfident, but, in comparison, the Ukrainians are more unconfident. Zhao Yaning's last-minute corner kick goal was completely like providence, and Blokhin's departure made matters worse, and their pressure was only greater than that of the Chinese.
But apparently, there was no problem with Voronin's penalty, he took two slow steps and kicked the ball out!
Liu Yufei fell to the left, and he judged that direction. But, apparently, he was wrong. Vononen kicked a spoon penalty, and the ball flew straight up the middle and into the goal!
"Spoon penalty! The Chinese team is now 4-4! Let's see how the penalty kick of the Chinese team went! ”
At this time, Shao Jiayi also consciously walked to the penalty spot.
At this time, he was thinking about the Asian Cup a few years ago, in which he missed a penalty and caused a lot of trouble. Although he won the game later, he was not scolded less when he returned home afterwards.
At this time, it was about the same time again. It's just that this time, he won't go wrong easily.
Whether it is due to the pressure of public opinion, or because after seeing Zhao Yaning's strength, there is a glimmer of hope and enthusiasm in his heart, he has been playing football more and more hard in Germany in the past few years. As for the technique of penalty kick, he has been practicing for a long time, after all, he knows very well that Zhao Yaning is afraid that he will never allow it again, and he will not score a penalty kick. Even if he allows, the domestic media, coaches, and the Football Association will not allow it.
Zhao Yaning is willing to take responsibility for them, and they also have to share the work for Zhao Yaning. Sometimes, Shao Jiayi also thinks, if there is really no Zhao Yaning, then, what will he play like? Without that person forcing himself to practice physical strength and skills, without that ball bully leading everyone forward in the national team, would he really have such a lot of hard work?
What didn't happen, no one knows.
Shao Jiayi took two steps back, looked at the gate, and then ran and shot the goal!
The goalkeeper judged the right direction and pounced to the left, but Shao Jiayi's shot still entered the gate quickly.
The scoreboard became Ukraine's 4-5 Chinese team, and Shao Jiayi also walked down from the penalty spot.
"After three rounds of penalty kicks, the Chinese team is now leading Ukraine 4-3, but in the next round, the shooters on both sides are Shepchenko and Zhao Yaning, which are the two best players on both sides, and it is estimated that there will be no problems. There is still theoretical hope for the Ukrainian team to turn the tables, but Liu Yufei's mood is much better now, he is very stable now, but he has also met Shepchenko, the most difficult player to defend. Let's see if he can pull off a miracle and defend the ball. ”
After three consecutive misjudgments, Liu Yufei was also extremely nervous, and he couldn't pounce on others, let alone Shepchenko?
Shepchenko's penalty prowess was outstanding, no one doubts that. At this time, he stands on the penalty spot and is still the biggest threat to the Chinese team.
Liu Yufei's expression was also unusually nervous, how could he not be nervous about this world-famous shooter?
Shepchenko took a step back, his eyes glanced slightly to the left, and then a penalty kick was struck!
He obviously wanted to rely on the direction of his eyes to attract Liu Yufei to the right to pounce. But the problem is that Liu Yufei was so nervous that he didn't see his eyes at all just now, and this time, he still habitually pounced left - this was a gamble, as Zhao Yaning said, he decided to gamble all aside. This crooked judgment had an effect, and the football hit him and bounced.
"Shepchenko's shot was saved, Shepchenko didn't score! The hope of the Chinese team winning has been greatly increased! ”
It's incredible - Zhao Yaning also came up with such an idea at this time.
It's an incredible thing. The Chinese team scored three goals in a row, but Shepchenko missed a penalty, and now at this time, the score is 4-5, and now, it is his turn to take a free throw, if he scores, then, the Chinese team will also defeat Ukraine.
Such a result is too unexpected.
"Zhao Yaning is now on the penalty spot, at this time, the Chinese team is already 5-3 ahead, if he scores this penalty again, then, the Chinese team will directly advance to the quarterfinals. Zhao Yaning is now carrying the hope of the whole country, which is definitely the most important penalty in his life. ”
At this time, when Zhao Yaning stood on the penalty spot, a lot of things flashed in his mind.
My own efforts still played a role. He helped Liu Yufei take responsibility, so that he dared to gamble. He helped Qu Bo go abroad, and he also helped himself. He forced Shao Jiayi to hone his skills, so that he could make this progress. I have sharpened them out and brought them here, and now, their tasks are over, and now, it is up to them to decide the winner.
I didn't come this far to lose.
Raising his foot and shooting with one kick, Zhao Yaning didn't play any tricks, just a simple and direct kick at the dead corner of the lower right corner. He kicked the ball so fast that the goalkeeper couldn't save the ball at all, which made the number on the scoreboard 6-4.
"The Chinese team won the game! The Chinese team won the game! Zhao Yaning scored a penalty! The Chinese team advanced to the quarterfinals, where they eliminated the Ukrainians! "Cat flutter Chinese
