Chapter 15 First Half
When the Chinese players were celebrating the goal, the TV was replaying He Ying's shot just now.
Such a wonderful and beautiful goal, of course it should be played several times for everyone to see enough.
Starting from Zheng Zhi's kick and passing the long pass, through multi-angle replay, everyone can see how He Ying moved.
He started at the top of the free throw arc at the front of the penalty area, which was in the middle.
But after Zheng Zhichang passed the ball, he immediately moved to the landing point of the football. However, his speed was not very fast, but he moved slowly sideways. Perhaps for this reason, the Dutch defensive players did not move at first. Notice him and focus on this golf quotient.
"...The Dutch defender made the mistake of focusing on the ball but not on the man..." Gong Lei analyzed this scene.
When the football was about to fly over, He Ying suddenly increased his speed, ran towards his ribs with long strides, and then pulled away laterally. He adjusted his pace while pulling away. When the football was flying over, he also adjusted his pace and swung it with the flow. Volley with left foot. The whole movement is very smooth and natural, the movement looks very stretched, and the force of the shot is of course just right.
"This is a high-quality shot..." Gong Lei praised in the end.
The commentator on the Dutch TV station was also convinced by He Ying's ball: "This ball really hit our defender and was speechless... Faced with such a lob, it would be good for many players to stop, let alone Talking about such a beautiful direct volley... Obviously, after the Dutch team took the lead, the players were a little too complacent... Such mistakes should not happen, but it just happened. This is also related to He Ying's personal ability. , after all, not just anyone can score such a beautiful goal in this position. He Ying's performance at Paris Saint-Germain last season was very eye-catching, and he was the team's second scorer after Ibrahimovic. He had a very good performance in the quarter-finals of the Champions League against Dortmund, scoring twice and scoring a wonderful goal... This player not only has excellent speed, but is also very versatile. He is not a An offensive player who relies purely on speed..."
Regarding the Chinese team, the Dutch commentators are probably most familiar with the players who play in the European leagues, especially the players who participated in the Champions League.
Van Gaal was so dissatisfied with the goal that he kept waving his arms on the sidelines to express his anger at the players on the court.
After just one minute of leading, the score was equalized. This is simply child's play!
The players of the Dutch team were also stunned by the Chinese team's goal. They never expected that they would only lead by one minute...
According to the arrangements before the game,
They want to score and extend their lead. If the Chinese team wants to counterattack, then the Dutch team will counterattack, because the Dutch team has a speed demon like Robben. I believe that no one on the Chinese team's defense can keep up with Robben's speed.
If they can lead by two goals, then the Dutch team will be stable in this game. Robben's counterattack alone can prevent the Chinese team from going all out and go all out to equalize the score. In the last game, the Chinese team attacked with all their strength and then equalized the score. This scene will not be played in this game.
The results of it?
Just after scoring a goal, the Chinese team immediately equalized!
Did you say that it wouldn't happen again?
There is indeed no repeat... In the last game, the Chinese team started a desperate counterattack after falling behind by two goals. In this game, it’s just you and I who score!
The Dutch players, who were full of confidence and planned to defeat the Chinese team and become the first team to qualify for the group in this World Cup, were stunned by this conceded goal. What followed was...anger.
Since sweeping the defending champion Spain 5:1 in the first game of the World Cup group stage, the Dutch team is now very excited. How can they allow a lame Chinese team to be arrogant in front of them?
They are all high-level players, and of course they know how powerful and beautiful He Ying's volley is. But it is precisely because of this that it arouses their fighting spirit - the Chinese team has performed like this, how can we be willing to lose?
Especially players like Robben, Robin van Persie and Sneijder.

After the game restarted, the Dutch team, which had been scored, did not panic so much that they made repeated mistakes. On the contrary, they launched a fierce attack on the Chinese team's goal, seeming to vent all their anger on the Chinese team's goal.
In the 24th minute, Sneijder suddenly shot a cold arrow outside the penalty area and hit a high-quality long-range shot.
The football was pinned by him within the goal frame, but Sun Pan also made a high-quality save. He lifted the football over the crossbar with one palm.
Next, the Dutch team got a corner kick. Sneijder's corner kick allowed defender Vlaar to beat Feng Xiaoting from the edge of the small penalty area and header, but the ball was deflected.
Two minutes later, the Dutch team made a comeback. This time it was Robben who dribbled the ball in the area he was most familiar with, then suddenly changed direction and dribbled laterally.
"Roben is here. This is his most accustomed attack method. Be careful, don't..." He Ping exclaimed.
Before he finished speaking, Robben took a shot.
But this time, his shot did not threaten Sun Pan's goal, but was blocked by Guo Nu, who had been sticking to him, with his legs.
"Guo Nu! Good defense! He stuck to Robben! It seems that he was not affected by the loss of the ball..."
After Guo Nu got up from the ground, he high-fived Feng Xiaoting beside him to celebrate. Just now, he was posted to defend Robben, but Feng Xiaoting would face some risks later on and had to do more to prevent problems in the back line. Two central defenders must have such a tacit understanding when partnering together.
It is also necessary to encourage and echo each other.
One of Guo Nu and Feng Xiaoting plays football abroad and the other plays domestically. Except for national team games and training camps, the two basically have no intersection. At this time, some active contact on the court is very important.

Facing the Dutch team's aggressive offensive, the Chinese team did not sit passively and wait for death. They also took the opportunity to launch some counterattacks.
In the 31st minute, the Chinese captain passed the ball to the frontcourt. He Ying retreated and stopped the football with his chest, then picked up the ball with his back, and then passed the football back to Yang Muge.
Yang Muge did not stop the ball, but directly passed the football to the right.
Wu Lei on the right stopped the ball, and Vlaar quickly pressed forward. Facing Vlaar, Wu Lei did not have stage fright. He first sank his left shoulder slightly, and after making a fake move to cut in, he suddenly dunked the football into the penalty area with his left foot, then changed direction and accelerated into the penalty area!
"Wu Lei, well done!"
After seeing Wu Lei's breakthrough, He Ying also quickly pressed in front of the goal. He did not necessarily want to grab a shot in front of the goal, but in this way he could compress the Dutch team's defense and create space behind him.
Sure enough, Wu Lei chose to pass the ball after breaking through, but instead of passing the football to He Ying, he passed the ball into the space behind He Ying.
The football passed through the huge vacuum area and fell to the back point.
Yan Min, who was following, kicked the ball and shot!
At the same time, Dutch player De Guzman, who was returning to defense, also arrived. He fell to the ground and tackled Yan Min, trying to stop Yan Min's shot.
This kick still affected Yan Min. He subconsciously wanted to let the football avoid De Guzman's foot, so he strengthened it a little and hit it higher...
"Yan Min... I really want to exert my strength..." He Ping's tone revealed endless regret. Wu Lei's breakthrough and passing were very good, and He Ying's movement was also very good. It was Yan Min's last move. One kick was a bit off.
Yan Min himself felt very sorry. He punched the turf hard and kept talking, complaining that he didn't handle it well just now.
One minute later, Yang Muge entangled Sneijder in the midfield. Zheng Zhi stepped forward and knocked away Sneijder's ball with a smart kick. The Chinese team quickly switched from defense to attack. Zhang Linpeng made a pass from the right, and He Ying's Due to the personal interference of De Vrij, the header failed to exert any force, and the football flew weakly towards the goal. It did not pose any threat to Sirison and was held in his arms.
During this period, although the Dutch team had more offensive attacks, the Chinese team's offensive threat was greater. After the Chinese team equalized the score, its morale was high and its edge was strong. Even the Dutch team had no choice but to face their edge. Be careful.
What about the Dutch offense?
Although there were many times, they encountered stubborn resistance from the Chinese team. Everything was just like the first ten minutes. It was difficult for the Dutch team to get a particularly good shooting opportunity. Even if they did, it would be difficult for Sun Pan to pass.
It was not until the end of the first half that the Chinese team, under Lippi's on-the-spot command, reshuffled its defense and tried not to concede any more goals before the end of the first half.
They succeeded.
The referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half. The score was 1:1, and the Chinese team and the Dutch team were tied.
There are still forty-five minutes until the end of the game. As long as the Chinese team can hold on to these forty-five minutes, they can achieve their pre-match goal.
And that way, they will be one step closer to qualifying from the group!
