Time passed on June 17, and the first game of the Chinese team finally came.

In the Volgograd Stadium, the Chinese team welcomed their first group stage opponent of this World Cup, Croatia.

Today, the Croatian team is full of strong players: Mandzukic, the super striker on the front, and the top stars in the midfield, Modric, Rakitic, Perisic, in addition to these stars, Rebic, Brozovic and other stars are also world-class.

Yunsheng knows their strength very well, this is a super strong team that relies on the overall strength to rush to the favorite, it is no exaggeration to say that Yunsheng even thinks that they are the strongest opponents in the group stage!

In the face of such a strong enemy, Yunsheng did not hesitate to discharge all the main players.

The formation of the Huaguo team is 4-3-2-1, which is the formation that Yunsheng likes very much, and many players have also played under Yunsheng and are very familiar with this formation: goalkeeper Yan Junling, four defenders Yu Hai, Zhang Linpeng, Zheng Zhi, Zhang Chengdong, midfielders Huang Bowen, Wang Chuhe and Chen Tao, two shadow strikers are Wu Lei and Dong Fangzhuo, and center forward Zhang Yuning.

In this game, Yunsheng's employment is very distinctive, and he chooses players he is more familiar with as much as possible. Among the 11 starters, except for Huang Bowen, the other 10 players have played under him, after all, it is the first game of the World Cup, and Yunsheng still wants to use players he knows better.

In this game, the Huaguo team kicked off first, and Yunsheng's opening tactics reproduced the World Cup!

"Wang Chuhe and Chen Tao controlled the ball in the midfield, and the three forwards of the Huaguo team quickly pressed up!"

Chen Tao suddenly stepped forward! He took away two Croatian midfielders! ”

"Wang Chuhe didn't give him the ball, and he made a long pass to find Wu Lei!"

"Mr. Golden Ball, Wu Lei, received the ball steadily! Horizontal pluck! Suddenly inserted into the restricted area! This is a great opportunity! ”

"Horizontal to the back point! Dong Fangzhuo's volley! The ball went in!! ”

"Less than two minutes into the game, the Huaguo team broke the deadlock!"

"1 to 0! The Huaguo team is in full shape today and its morale is high! ”

In the live broadcast room, Li Feixiang shouted excitedly, and the commentator Shao Jiayi next to him also applauded again and again, excited.

The cheers of the Chinese fans in the stands were higher and higher, and the five-star red flag was flying in the wind!

On the court, teammates surrounded Dong Fangzhuo, hugging and shouting excitedly. Dong Fangzhuo hugged Wu Lei, who passed the ball to him, with a happy face.

Although the players on the field scored goals in Europe, they were still extremely excited to score in the World Cup wearing the jersey of the Chinese national team.

Shortly after Hua Guo's goal, Croatia equalised.

This is a cooperation on the side, Perisic took advantage of Zhang Chengdong's assist, inserted into the right side of the Chinese team, and found Mandzukic with an accurate cross!

Beat the wind! Header on goal! The ball is in!

1 to 1! Croatia equalised!

Looking at the Croatian players who were celebrating excitedly on the field, Yun Sheng on the sidelines shook his head helplessly.

The goal just conceded is not to blame for the wind and thunder, Mandzukic's header ability is too strong. In terms of the current world football, Mandzukic is definitely a top five world-class center forward.

The game was played 20 minutes and the two teams drew 1-1.

In the following period, both sides invariably compressed their defenses and fought in midfield.

In the 41st minute of the game, Croatia had another good chance.

At the top of the arc of the Chinese team's penalty area, Modric suddenly shot a cold arrow, and the ball went straight into the corner of the goal!

2 to 1! Croatia overtook the score!

Yan Junling had done his best just now, but Modric's shot was too tricky, straight into the bottom right corner of the goal, and Yan Junling had nothing to do.

Shortly after the Chinese team conceded a goal, they had problems up front.

In a breakaway, Wu Lei was brought down by Rakitic in front of the penalty area, and the referee's whistle blew and gave Huaguo a free kick.

However, Wu Lei was injured and fell to the ground, and he didn't get up for a long time.

Yun Sheng is in a hurry!

Just in the first game of the group stage, he injured a big general?

How can this work!

Wu Lei was carried off the field and carefully examined by the team doctor.

"Coach Yunsheng, Wu Lei only has a slight sprain, and it will be fine in three or five days, and there is no problem."

Yun Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

But despite this, Yunsheng did not dare to take it lightly.

At this time, the first half of the game was over, and Yun Sheng told Gao Lin on the bench: "Warm up well and prepare for the second half." ”

Back in the locker room, Yun Sheng didn't say too much about tactics, and the Huaguo team performed well in the first half, without any hard injuries.

"This opponent is better than we thought, I told you before the fight, they are a strong contender for the title in my heart, and now you feel it. In the second half, we had to improve our attacking efficiency and try to equalise as soon as possible. Xiao Dong Xiao Zhang, you have to seize the opportunity. ”

Coming into the second half, the two teams were once again at a stalemate in midfield.

But soon, the Chinese team got a good chance.

Gao Lin took the ball in the position of the shadow striker, he knocked it to Zhang Yuning in the middle, and then quickly stepped forward!

Dong Fangzhuo has already appeared on the right side of the penalty area, Zhang Yuning took the ball with his back, showed the characteristics of the British center trained in the UK, controlled the ball steadily, and then knocked it accurately!

Dong Fangzhuo inserted the ball into the penalty area! Croatia's defense is in disarray!

Zhang Yuning, who had just passed the ball, suddenly stepped forward, as the center of the Huaguo team, an important goal point, his threat was great!

And Chen Tao in the midfield is also close behind, his speed, flexibility and attacking ability are the best in Europe, and the Croatian defense is extremely tight!

However, as a fellow Premier League player, Dong Fangzhuo is very aware of the speed and characteristics of several teammates from the Premier League, so he chose to pick a pass!

The ball goes straight to the back of the penalty area! Zhang Yuning and Chen Tao attracted the attention of the defense, and Gao Lin's header rushed to the top at the back point!

The ball went in!!

2 to 2! The Huaguo team stubbornly equalized!

Gao Lin, who scored the goal, ran frantically to Dong Fangzhuo, surrounded by Zhang Yuning, Chen Tao, Wang Chuhe, and Huang Bowen!

These midfielders from England worked together super tacitly and completely penetrated the Croatian defence!
