Chapter 1,149 We Are the Real Ones
"It was really ugly, the opponent was Singapore." Yang Fan complained to Gao Xiaodong and Yu Debao.
Gao Xiaodong watched the game attentively and did not speak. Yu Debao whispered: "The coach has just arrived, and the tactics have not been practiced. If we can't cooperate with each other, how can we watch it well?"
Yang Fan said: "I can't do it in the starting lineup. If you replace me, I will definitely play better than you do now."
Yu Debao said: "Don't brag. Xiaodong doesn't dare to say that he can get immediate results even if he goes up there."
Gao Xiaodong nodded seriously, "It's too monotonous! It's too chaotic, and it's hard for anyone to use it."
Yang Fan said unconvinced: "Don't think Singapore is too strong. As long as there is a strong point to break through from one position, their defense will be finished."
Gao Xiaodong said: "Don't underestimate your opponents. Their defense is pretty good. It's not something you can break through if you want to."
Gao Xiaodong said it very seriously. Although Yang Fan was not convinced, he didn't say anything more and focused his attention on the court again.
After failing to score a goal in 15 minutes and not gaining the upper hand, the Chinese players were a little annoyed and immediately accelerated the pace of the game and added more long-range shots.
Singapore head coach Serbian Avramovic is very experienced and has strong on-the-spot adaptability. After the Chinese team changed its rhythm, he decisively asked the Singapore team to increase small moves and fouls to prevent the Chinese team from speeding up and at the same time strictly guard against it. The Huaguo team's main attackers Liu Jian and Chen Tao are on the right.
In the 20th minute of the game, Singapore forward passed a diagonal pass from the wing. When their forward Dulic had no chance to grab the target, he forced it to the back of the head of the Chinese team center back Du Wei. Du Wei shook his head and the two collided. When they came together, they all fell to the ground holding their heads.
When the Lebanese referee Haddad saw that the two men could not get up, he quickly stopped the game and asked the team doctor to enter the field for treatment.
The team doctor came on stage, and after simple treatment, both Du Wei and Dulic had no major problems and continued to participate in the game.
I have to say that Singapore responded very well. The technical abilities of the Chinese team's players were mediocre and they were easily disturbed. Singapore's foul tactics and small moves disrupted the rhythm of the Chinese team. The Chinese team's long shots and crosses were very difficult. It is difficult to pose much threat to Singapore's goal.
In the 22nd minute of the game, the Huaguo team won a corner kick on the right; Sun Xiang took the corner kick and passed it to the center of the penalty area. Du Wei and Li Feng grabbed the point in the middle. Du Wei overpowered the opponent's defender to header the goal, but the ball missed the goal. Above the beam.
Then Singapore's long pass attack from the opening kick was intercepted by the Chinese team.
Qu Bo quickly counterattacked from the wing and passed the ball from one side of the penalty area. Yang Xu got between the two defenders and jumped with a header, but unfortunately the ball missed the goal post.
The Chinese team used two consecutive headers to get shooting opportunities, which made the players of the Chinese team think that headers were the best way to deal with Singapore. They almost gave up all short passing cooperation, and only long passes to the lob and the wing. Cross.
Although Singapore's strength is weak, they are not unable to cope with this simple tactic. They calmly used their numerical advantage to surround and divide the Chinese team's forwards, target the Chinese team's forward midfielders, and almost completely lock down the Chinese team's forward midfielders. Killed the Chinese team's offense.
In the blink of an eye, the game reached 30 minutes. The Chinese team had more shots than Singapore and had more offensive opportunities than Singapore. However, it did not create a must-goal opportunity, and its advantage on the field was not obvious.
Such a scene obviously does not satisfy the Chinese team's coach Camacho.
Camacho came to the sidelines and waved for the players to press on, increasing the number of attackers and not giving the opponent a chance to double-team and divide.
In the 32nd minute of the game, the Huaguo team's midfielder passed the ball back. After receiving the ball, center back Li Feng dribbled the ball forward to organize the attack.
Singapore's forward Dulic saw Li Feng dribbling the ball forward and immediately ran over to press for him.
Dulic was still far away from Li Feng. Li Feng did not pass the ball and continued to dribble forward, looking for suitable passing opportunities.
Li Feng is an old guard, so there is no problem in handling the ball in this way. Even if Dulic presses, he will have enough time to pass back to the goalkeeper.
However, an accident happened at this time. In order to prepare for this game, the Tuodong Stadium was replaced with a new turf. The turf was not very smooth. Li Feng tripped when he was dribbling the ball. Li Feng stumbled and the ball suddenly escaped Li Feng's control.
Dulic was just making a symbolic press, but when he saw Li Feng suddenly staggering, he was overjoyed and immediately accelerated towards Li Feng.
When Li Feng caught up with the ball again, Dulic was already very close to him. Li Feng had no time to turn around and pass back, so he could only pass the ball to Chen Tao on the front right sideline.
Li Feng passed the ball too hastily and touched the upper part of the ball. The force of the ball was too light, and Dulic caught up with him and intercepted the ball.
Although the fans of the Chinese national team in the stands were not very satisfied with the game, they were not very resentful because the Singaporeans had no chance. The worst that the Chinese national team could do was a draw. However, they did not expect that Qifeng suddenly appeared and Li Feng's dribbling was unexpectedly defeated by the opponent's forward. The ball was stolen.
This is an extremely dangerous thing. The Chinese fans were nervous and angry and couldn't help but curse.
"Shabi! Dribble the ball from this position!"
"who do you think You Are!"
"The hell do you think you are Lucio or Pique!"
"..."
Li Feng was so frightened that he rushed towards Dulic, trying to get a yellow card to stop Dulic's attack.
But the 41-year-old veteran Dulic is very experienced. He easily passed the ball diagonally to the Chinese player Qiu Li who was inserted. He moved forward at high speed, shook off Li Feng, and Qiu Li beat another Chinese central defender. Du Wei.
Du Wei is also an experienced central defender, but he defends two offensive players by himself. He can only go to mark Qiu Li who is holding the ball and let go of Dulic who is running in the air.
At this time, the fans of the Chinese national team were no longer in the mood to curse. They were all staring at the field nervously, hoping that a miracle would happen, that Du Wei could single out two Singaporean players, or that goalkeeper Yang Zhi could hold off one man.
In a two-on-one situation, Chinese midfielder Qiu Li was very calm when facing Du Wei. He easily faked a pass, suddenly made a move, passed Du Wei, and immediately passed the ball to the penalty area. Look for veteran Dulic on the right.
After being passed by Qiu Li, Du Wei could only chase Qiu Li. He had no chance to defend Dulic and could only watch Dulic challenge his goalkeeper Yang Zhi.
The 41-year-old veteran Dulic was very calm when facing Yang Zhi and shot low into the near corner from a small angle. Yang Zhi fell to the ground and the ball flew from his feet into the net.
1:0
The Singapore team took advantage of the mistake of the Chinese team's central defender Li Feng to score the first goal, leading the Chinese team away from home.
After the goal, the Singaporean players were ecstatic. They ran towards Duric like crazy and threw him tightly in the penalty area of the Chinese team as if they had won.
There was dead silence in the stands of the Chinese national team. No one was cursing or complaining. Everyone was sitting blankly. At this moment, they thought of May 19.
The only thing still lingering was the angry voice of the on-site commentator, "Goal! Singapore scored! The 41-year-old Bosnia and Herzegovina veteran broke through our gate! Singaporeans with a population of only five million took the lead! The passer It was Qiu Li who was given up by our Chinese national team! This is a shame! An absolute shame! Even if we win! This is a shame that cannot be washed away! Before the game, everyone said that Singapore was a weakling and a rookie, but in the first thirty minutes, The performance of the Singaporeans is no worse than that of the Chinese team. Judging from the 32 minutes and the score, it is not Singapore but the Chinese team. We are the real fish belly..."
